Apostle Suleiman Blows Hot says "The Govt That Will Change The Board Of Trustees In My Church Has Not Yet Been Born"

Posted: 29 Aug 2020 10:30 PM PDT

Apostle Johnson Suleman, the presiding pastor of Omega Fire Ministries International, has stated that he is not in compliance with the Company and Allied Matters Acts (CAMA) recently signed into law by President Muhammadu Buhari.

The law permits the registrar-general of Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) and a supervising minister to strictly supervise religious bodies and charity organizations. The law also gives the commission power to suspend the trustees of an association or a religious body and appoint an interim manager or managers to coordinate its affairs where it reasonably believes that there has been any misconduct or mismanagement, or where the affairs of the association are being run fraudulently or where it is necessary or desirable for the purpose of public interest.

The Christian Association of Nigeria CAN and Bishop David Oyedepo, have come out to condemn the law.

While preaching in his church recently, Apostle Suleman said the government that will come to change the board of trustee of his church, is yet to be born.

"People have been asking me to talk about the CAMA bill, the bill that says the government can just give the church a board of trustee, they can suspend some, and I said why will I talk over nonsense.

The government that will change the board of trustee in this Ministry, that government has not been born. This Ministry? Come now, come and do it!"

Describing CAMA as an illiterate bill, the clergyman said;

"You said it's CAMA law, it's CAMA bill, what kind of stupid…….have you finished managing the Ministry of Agric? Have you finished managing the Ministry of Works? In this country, the Ministry of Work is not working, then you say it is church…come and try it. There are some things that don't make sense.

Let us not rule out the fact that many pastors just started church because of money. So what you should talk about is transparency. If you say churches should submit their financial report, I will be the first. I will be so happy because by the time you discover that what they are making a month is 5 million Naira but what the man is spending on people is N60 million, wouldn't you balance me?

It is not even an educated bill. CAMA bill is an illiterate bill. You do not appoint a board of trustee who has not been around at all and has no stake to the company.

If you want financial sincerity, you want financial transparency, then get auditors to audit them. Tell them to open your books. I don't have a problem with that but to say you sit down and carry one Northern Muslim and appoint him to become a board of Trustee, you are mad."

Apostle Suleiman said fasting and prayers will be used to kill such a person appointed as a trustee

"You didn't contribute to the land. You didn't contribute to the running of the Ministry, 16 years I have been running the ministry, paying salaries, supporting widows, supporting the poor..then they appoint you a board of trustee. You are mad. We will use fasting and prayers to kill you".

Halima Abubakar – Over 40% of married men in Nigeria are bisexual

Posted: 29 Aug 2020 07:00 AM PDT

A few days ago, popular Nollywood actress, Halima Abubakar took to her social media account to send a cryptic message which set the platform agog as many of her friends and followers read meanings to the message.

The actress simply posted, "Don't blame people who jump from one girl to another. Some times what they really want is another man. Don't hurt yourself. Dust yourself and move on."

In an exclusive chat with Punch, the Kogi state born actress shared her reason for the cryptic message. She revealed that about 40 per cent of married Nigerian men are on the "Down-low" (bi-sexual).

She said, "We have over 40 per cent of down-low (bi-sexual married men) in Nigeria, whether you want to believe it or not. Sadly, their families don't even know. Instead of them putting their families through hurt, infect them with various diseases and end up killing their wives or themselves because they are scared to open up, I feel they should be truthful and realistic about their needs and put it first before anything.


"I know so many people who are married and they are bi-sexual. I'm saying this because it is the truth and those reacting are the guilty ones. Tell me why a man will change girls at random? What exactly are they looking for if it is not a man? Nigerians don't accept the truth because half of us are hypocrites. I Halima Abubakar am telling you that a lot of people are bi-sexual. They should save the lives of future generations by coming out, if they don't want to come out, they should not get married.

She continued, "If they want just a child, they can afford surrogacy. You won't believe some of these people have nine children, tell me what they want nine children for only to go and end up with a man. That's destroying somebody's life. I've been hinting about it for a long time now so I just needed to say it like this."

Mompha released, drops N5m lawsuit against EFCC

Posted: 29 Aug 2020 05:00 AM PDT

Nigerian Instagram big boy, Ismaila Mustapha, popularly known as Mompha, has regained freedom and withdrawn N5m lawsuit against the EFCC.

Recall that Mompha was re-arrested on August 14 when he went to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission office in Ikoyi, Lagos to reclaim his belongings that were seized from him by the anti-graft agency last year.

The socialite who is answering N32bn fraud charges before the Federal High Court in Lagos, was released on Wednesday – about two weeks after he was re-arrested by the anti-graft agency.

His visit to the EFCC office followed a July 24 ruling by Justice Mohammed Liman ordering the release of the items to him.

EFCC, however, stated that Mompha's re-arrest was justified as it was connected to a fresh set of cyber fraud, which had nothing to do with the earlier money laundering charges over which he had been arraigned.

Mompha, through his lawyer Mr. Gbenga Oyewole insisted that his re-arrest was unlawful and slammed a N5 million suit against the EFCC.

But his lawyer Oyewole confirmed on Wednesday that Mompha had withdrawn the N5 million fundamental rights suit he filed against the anti-graft agency.

He also stated that Mompha was released on bail.

Bezos' net worth is more than Nike, McDonald's and Pepsi, all three companies are valued between $139 billion and $191 billion, The Wrap's report said.

Amazon's CEO and also the world's richest man is worth $204.6 billion as of August 27. He is $90 billion richer than Bill Gates, who is the world's second-richest person, currently worth $116.1 billion, as per a Forbes report.
