We Will Challenge Court’s Decision -UK-Based Pastor, Tobi Adegboyega
Tobi Adegboyega, the founder of the UK-based church, SPAC Nation, has said that the church will be challenging the decision of a UK court to shut them down over alleged misappropriation of funds.
In a video on his Instagram page on Sunday, Adegboyega said, “It is impossible to be perfect in account filing for God’s sake. We will challenge decision but the church of God cannot be stopped. The church is a people.
“We have given all the documents that are necessary. We have operated by the highest standards of transparency for the past 17 years and you cannot do extremely and perfectly right, especially when the system doesn’t want you.”
The UK Government on Friday announced the shut down of SPAC Nation after failing to properly account for more than £1.87 million of outgoings and operating with a lack of transparency.
“No Igbo man will smell Aso Rock, until they reject Biafra.
Igbos will remain irrelevant in Nigerian politics until the day they wake up against the activities of the most deadliest terrorist organization in Africa called “IPOB”.
“Dave Umahi and Hope Uzodinma deserves better opportunities in Nigerian Politics for standing against IPOB nonsensical attitude over the years. While the rest of the Governors including Peter Obi were pampering them, these two Governors stood against their nefarious activities.
“Peter Obi or any other Eastern Aspirants will never smell Aso Rock either now or in the future. Enough is enough. Asiwaju Ahmed Tinubu has come to change the face of Nigeria and in his mandate i strongly believe. No going back. Northerners should be getting ready to take up from Asiwaju after eight years. After which power will return back to the West. Take it home, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu is our next President come 2023.
Members of Mbaka’s adoration ministry protest against ban of Catholic members from coming to the ministry
Members of Fr. Ejike Mbaka’s adoration ministry protested against ban of Catholic members from coming to the ministry By Enugu Catholic diocese under the leadership of Bishop Valentine Onaga.
Recall that Catholic Bishop of Enugu issued a directive barring all Catholics from “attending all religious and liturgical activities” of Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka’s Catholic Adoration Ministry.
The directive from the Bishop of Enugu is coming on the heels of Mbaka’s outburst against the presidential candidate of the Labour Party and one-time governor of Anambra state, Peter Obi.
The priest had declared that Obi, who he described as “a stingy man”, would never rule Nigeria; a declaration that did not go down well with many Nigerians who demanded that appropriate sanctions should be meted on Mbaka.
Members of Mbaka’s ministry who protested over the ban today June 19, were heard shouting “no more Onaga”.
“God Told Me Atiku Will Win But Peter Obi Is The Moses Of Nigeria” – Prophet Elijah Bamidele
As 2023 General Elections draw closer, some servants of God have claimed they received visions and revelations from the Lord concerning the country.
Why some visions and revelations will appear positive, others may appear negative to a set of people. This has also put concerns in the minds of many believers about the future of the country.
However, according to the vision Prophet Elijah Bamidele claimed to have received from the Lord, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) were rejoicing over their victory in 2023. He mentioned some top allies of PDP that ensured PDP reclaimed power from APC.
“Peter Obi is the Moses of Nigeria but some strongholds will stand against him”, Prophet Elijah said from the video.
@goldmynetv learnt from his vision that Atiku Abubakar will defeat other 2023 presidential candidates but Mr. Peter Obi of the Labour Party will become President in time to come.

Little boy chained by stepmother rescued in Owerri
Imo State Police Command has arrested a father and his wife for allegedly chaining his 7-year-old son in an uncompleted security post, with his legs locked with two padlocks for days.
The Public Relations Officer(PPRO) of the command, Micheal Abattam, confirmed this in a release made available to newsmen in Owerri, Imo State.
The police informed that the two suspects are presently in police custody undergoing interrogation and will be charged to court as soon as an investigation is concluded.
The police spokesman said the child was rescued alongside two other children, aged 11 and 9 years, all looking unkempt and malnourished.
Explaining what led to the arrest, the Police said following a report on child Slavery/Abuse received on 17/6/2022 at about 1400 hours, by the police from a Good Samaritan residing at World Bank Owerri, Imo State, the Divison Police Officer (DPO) in charge of New Owerri Divisional Police Headquarters Owerri, Imo State, mobilized a team of policemen including the Officer in charge of Juvenile Welfare Center (JWC ) to the scene at the World Bank area.
According to the police,” Preliminary investigation revealed that the child was chained by his stepmother, 26 years old Mrs Victoria Nwosu. The father of the three rescued children, Mr Chimezie Nwosu, aged 30 years allegedly never cautioned his wife or showed concern on seeing his wife maltreat the children.
The release read, “On rescuing the children the police operatives immediately rushed them to a nearby government hospital where they were treated and discharged.
They were later handed over to a government-recognized Orphanage Home where they will be well taken care of, pending when their mother is located.
He should’ve gone to Afghanistan instead – Yahaya Ndu slams Peter Obi over Egypt trip
The founder of the African Renaissance Party, ARP, and Director, Institute for African Renaissance Studies and realisation, Yahaya Ndu, has tackled the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, Peter Obi, over his recent trip to Egypt.
Ndu, who is also a presidential candidate of one of the eighteen political parties for the 2023 election, said that Obi could have gone to Afghanistan to study how the United States of America failed after sinking trillions of dollars.
Peter Obi recently made a 3-day visit as part of his detailed study of comparable countries to Nigeria.
The former Governor of Anambra State said he will understudy the Egyptian Power, Education and other sectors of their economy during his 3-day visit to Egypt.
But Ndu sees the trip as unnecessary, arguing that there are thousands of experts in energy and power including electricity presently within the Nigerian borders and abroad.
He also appealed to President Muhammadu Buhari to reconsider the move by his administration to concession the Ajaokuta steel mill.
“Trending news has it that the presidential candidate of the Labour Party took off to Egypt to study the country’s power sector,” the former ARP presidential candidate told the press in Abuja on Saturday.
“This country is full of ridiculous politicians.
“He should go to Afghanistan to study how the United States failed there, after sinking trillions of dollars and left in shame without achieving anything
“Nigeria has hundreds if not thousands of experts in energy and power including electricity presently within our borders and abroad.
“All we need is to engage them and give them opportunities to clear their part. No need to go to Egypt.
“Which reminds me, we have been hearing about the so-called concessioning of the Ajeokuta steel mill.
“Permit me to use this opportunity to appeal to President Muhammadu Buhari to please reconsider and put this move on hold in the interest of the nation.
“Ajaokuta steel is too vital an interest to be concessioned to strangers. When true patriots come into power come 2023, In Sha Allah it would be handed over to a team of Nigerian and African Engineers and the Nigerians society of engineers to run.”
