| Bloody Randy Naija Pastors by Charlyboy Posted: 10 Oct 2014 07:04 AM PDT  Ol boy my mouth no fit talk, but my fingers no go fall my hand. Kai! Blood of Jesus. I like the truth because a lot of people can't stand the truth; it makes many of us uncomfortable because many of us are just living out our fake lives. This write up is about all the sex scandals going on in the church, about The Bloody Randy Men of God who are busy screwing their female congregation, breaking marriages and turning the bible upside down to fit their slimy nature.So, if you are one of those Jesus people who can't see the flit in your church, sorry, keep living in denial. STOP. You don't have to read this. How can a man of God "fall so easily into temptation" Are they not supposed to be on a higher moral ground than simpletons like us? These predatory pastors love to prey on their victims. It is a preplanned, master manipulative, controlling, calculated 'decision'. Sadly, most congregations are aware about the bull-crap going on in their church. But like the dumb ignorant Naijas we are, corrupted by fear and the uncertainty of tomorrow, we look the other way. Oh God! Finish article here… http://www.charlyboy.org/ |

| $9.3m scandal: Okotie calls for Oritsejafor's resignation as CAN president Posted: 10 Oct 2014 06:35 AM PDT   In a piece titled "$9.3m Scandal: Oritsejafor Should Do The Right Thing' which was posted on his Facebook page today, Okotie said the continued relationship between Oritsejafor and the Presidency has caused a lot of embarrassment to the Christian body and that it was time the elder clergyman resigned to salvage the respect of CAN. Read his piece after the cut... The recent seizure by the South African authorities of $9.3m found in a private jet owned by Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor, President of the Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, has aggravated the image problem of this country at a time when the narrative of this government is brimming with negatives under the leadership of President Goodluck Jonathan. The South African government took the action on the alleged charge that the undeclared $9.3m found in the plane might have been laundered. This revelation came when the dust generated by the seemingly dubious donation of the jet to Pastor Ayo is yet to settle. His friendship with the President has been at the centre of the controversies that mark his explosive tenure as the leader of the eponymous religious organization in Nigeria. Not that it is a sin to be the President's Pal, but when such relationship becomes provocatively patronizing, or self-serving, it is unacceptable. The Pastor does not show restraint in the way he goes about, publicly hobnobbing with the President as if he is the Chaplain of Aso Rock. This certainly has compromised the integrity of his office as CAN President and this latest incident is just the climax of embarrassing incidents we can't tolerate any longer. Considering the collateral damage Pastor Ayo's close relationship with the President has done to the Christian community, it is fit and proper for the Pastor to resign immediately as CAN President to salvage what remains of the battered image of the association. This is without prejudice to the on-going investigation on the matter. Denials of his culpability by the Federal Government, CAN officials and his own recent defense, does nothing to reduce the moral burden this whole saga places on his shoulders. As the titular leader of Christians in Nigeria, there's now a serious crisis of confidence on his leadership and he ought to respond to it by resigning from his exalted position. That is what the ecclesiastic responsibility of his calling as a gospel minister dictates, once he finds himself in a situation where his continued occupation of public office suffers a moral deficit, on account of any error of commission or omission. If one may ask: why should Pastor Ayo's jet be the one that was chartered for this ill-fated transaction when there are numerous competitors in that business in which he is obviously a new player? It is very difficult to sustain the argument that a civilian aircraft is ideal to ferry weapons of war. A sitting President of CAN should never be involved in any way in the procurement of arms to fight insurgents like Boko Haram which claims Islamic principles in its war against the state. To do so is to expose Christians to more deadly attacks. To whom much is given, much is expected. The Pastor has the distinction of being the first and only person to occupy the posts of CAN President, and President of the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria, PFN, until recently when Rev. Felix Omobude succeeded him as PFN President. Pastor Ayo's friendship with President Jonathan is perfectly legitimate and nobody should attempt to query such relationship. However, the Pastor opens himself to criticism of this otherwise normal social interaction because of his indiscretion in identifying too closely to the President, in a way that suggests a veiled endorsement of Dr. Jonathan's policies and actions by the entire Christian community. He ought to have identified privately with the President knowing full well that he carries the mandate of the Christian community at these trying times. In a nation of contending faiths, Pastor Ayo literally ignores our divergent religious sensibilities as he sometimes gets himself involved in public quarrels with the President's critics, from the muslim faith as well as in the opposition. Not all Christians are comfortable with this posture by their leader, especially at a time of intense politicking and the sectarian tensions generated by the Boko Haram insurgents and communal violence involving ethnic minorities with entrenched religious identities. The cumulative effect of Pastor Ayo's abrasive leadership style has also polarized the Christian community as evidenced by the current unprecedented division in CAN. Before now, leaders of this organization deliberately stayed out of politics in keeping with the traditional stance of neutrality of the body vis-a-vis the policy postures of incumbent governments. In fact, former PFN leaders like the late Archbishop Benson Idohosa and ex-CAN President, Olubunmi Cardinal Okogie kept governments on their toes during their time. In more mature democracies, it is not unusual for public officers to resign from office when their actions appear to degrade their positions. And they would not have to wait to be found guilty in circumstances surrounding their actions before they throw in the towel. In other words, they could even be victims of circumstances; or in rare cases, subjects of blackmail. It didn't matter. Once you are pelted in any way, you quit to protect the integrity of your office. That was the case of Dominic Strauss-Khan who resigned his position as the President of IMF because he was accused of molesting a maid in a hotel in the United States. He was eventually acquitted after a celebrated trial. The Prime Minister of South Korea, Jong Hong-won resigned because his compatriots were drowned recently in a chartered cruise ship which carried some students on a picnic. Just last month, the First Minister of Scotland, Mr. Alex Salmond resigned because he led his country's failed bid to gain independence from the United Kingdom. Nobody asked him to resign; he did so of his own accord because he felt it was wrong to continue to run a country he launched on a part of an unsuccessful "secession". If purely secular leaders could do this to affirm their integrity, Pastor Ayo should take the honourable path by leaving office, not necessarily because he is guilty as charged, but to restore honour to an exalted office he has unwittingly degraded because of his unabashed flirtation with the head of a government that is perceived as one of the most corrupt in the world. The Bible commands us to "flee from all appearance of evil". Nobody says Pastor Ayo cannot do business; he could have been in order, if he does so as the Pastor of his Word of Life Bible Church, WOLBC. But since his private jet was involved in a transaction gone awry in a foreign land, while he is still the sitting President of CAN, it is difficult for him to continue to command the respect of Nigerian Christians of diverse denominations who constitute the CAN group, regardless of the defense his sympathizers and the Federal Government tried to put up on his behalf. If this incident had happened in Pastor Ayo's capacity as the head/founder of the Word of Life Bible Church, no one could justifiably call for his head because the Bible teaches that the "call of God is without repentance". In other words, regardless of the conduct of a servant of God, He does not remove them from office or withdraw their anointing. This is one of the mysteries of the gospel. The Almighty has a way of chastising his errant servants. But here, we are dealing with Pastor Ayo as the leader of CAN; the largest umbrella of Nigerian Christians. He is condemned to be judged by secular standards, which, in this case, demands that, having found himself in a quagmire which calls to question, the sanctity of his office, he must step down to redeem his image. The Pastor should quit the CAN post and return to his church where he could then recalibrate himself, away from this season of anomie. Rev. Okotie, a Presidential Aspirant, wrote from Lagos |

| Attend Business Clinic with Philip Obin Posted: 10 Oct 2014 06:14 AM PDT  Congratulations for being in business as at the time of receipt of this message. About 90% of new businesses, especially in Nigeria, find it difficult to survive beyond the first 2years; not because they didn't have enough funds or didn't envisage the challenges that pull down new businesses, but because such businesses are not founded on renewable values, ethics and strategies. The reality is that most businesses fail owing to lack of renewable strategies and up-to-the-minute business education. Just like in the practice of medical science, where you must undergo professional training before permitted to practice, business has also evolved into a practice one must formally learn to be successful at. Yes, you might presently be doing well in your mastered line of business, yet you could have been doing better. There are renewable values, ethics and strategies that cut across all spheres of businesses, especially as the business world becomes even more competitive and evolving, hence the need to stay updated and key into additional experiences of others, both successful and unsuccessful, in order to remain in business, not just ahead of your competitors but also sustainably and profitably. Admittedly, we have very few business schools in Nigeria, most of which the average entrepreneur cannot afford, yet even those who can afford them either haven't truly decided to DO IT or unable to leave their competitive businesses and very tight schedules for months or even years, in pursuit of further business education. Consequently, we hereby invite you to kindly attend the October edition of our Business Clinic with Philip Obin, a Harvard of BusinessPro, seasoned BusinessPro and a product of the most prestigious Enterprise Development Centre (EDC) - Pan-Atlantic University, as he shares mind-blowing tips and true life experiences that would change your view of how to run business! Our strategy is simply to compress a full business education program into a 6-hour/1 day CrashCourse, with training materials available for keeps, for further references, at the end of the program. We understand your busy schedules as a business executive, but we'll encourage you to do anything humanly possible to personally attend this program or at least delegate senior managers/decision-makers, and you'll be glad you did. Participation fee covers the following 1. Tuition 2. Resource/training materials 3. Lunch 4. 10,000 Nigerian email addresses (for your new online marketing strategies, valued @ N10,000) 5. 10,000 location-based Nigerian phone numbers for your new Bulk SMS marketing (any location/LGA of your choice across Nigeria, valued @ N10,000 6. Club080.com Platinum membership (where you can get airtime/recharge cards of all networks at 4% discount + advertise your products/services to other 35,000+ members, valued @ N100,000) 7. Domain Registration, hosting and creation of up to 4 corporate email accounts for your company (ex:info@YourCompany. Date/Time: 11th October, 2014 - 10:00am – 5:00pm Training ends at 4pm, while sharing of training content/resource materials and creation of email accounts + other business of the day ends at 5pm.

| Relatives torture two children over alleged witchcraft in Akwa Ibom Posted: 10 Oct 2014 03:45 AM PDT  The Nigerian government need to get involved and start arresting people who torture children for allegedly being witches. This is so wrong. Two 8 year old children named Mary Odiong and Ekong Asua (pictured above) were tortured and sent out of their homes in the Okobo LGA of Akwa Ibom State on the allegation of witchcraft. According to Punch, the little girl said her relatives came after her after one of her uncles died from AIDS. They blamed her for infecting him with the disease. That's so silly! "The people in my family called me and started asking me questions whether I was a witch and why I killed my uncle. I told them that I did not know anything about what they were talking about. They started beating me. They hit me with cutlasses. They cut my buttocks with knives. After the beating became too much, I lost consciousness. Later, I woke up to find myself in a bush. I have been living on the streets since last month without food and shelter." the girl told a Punch correspondent.The other victim said he was blamed for his parents death. Can't the Akwa Ibom state government do something to stop this injustice? |
