Why My Wife Divorced Me –Pastor Chirs Oyakhilome Finally Speaks On Divorce Drama
Pastor Chris Oyakhilome described the allegations levelled against him as “crazy” and “stupid” and urged his church members to pray for his estranged wife while speaking on Sunday evening during the monthly global communion service of the church.
Oyakhilome, who appeared visibly disturbed during his first few minutes on stage, acknowledged that divorce is un-Biblical but suggested he could consider the option should his wife insist on it.
“I heard that some media houses– especially in Nigeria, are writing some things against me. All sorts of frivolous charges, that’s crazy.
“You have to understand something about a man of God. A man of God is not just someone who worships God or preaches God. A man of God is handpicked by God, set on course by God. If you study the scriptures, you will not find one man of God go against God, sinning against God.
“The only thing you might find will be a man of God, maybe in two different kinds of ways. Moses, for example, when he struck the rock twice, he was provoked by the anger of the people. It was not because he wanted to do something against the Lord. No man of God does something against the Lord.

What Oba Akiolu really said — Palace
THE PALACE MAKES FURTHER CLARIFICATION ON THE STATEMENT BY THE OBA OF LAGOS.
My attention has been drawn to a publication in a national newspaper where HRM Oba Riliwanu Akinolu was alleged to have threatened Igbos in Lagos to make them vote for Ambode.
Last Sunday, all honorary Eze Ndigbos in Lagos paid a courtesy call to HRM Oba Akinolu. At the meeting the visitors praised the Oba for his fatherly support for and cooperation with Igbos in. Lagos. They assured him of their continued good neighborliness with other tribes in Lagos and support everything that’ll further strengthen that harmony.
Oba Akiolu on his part acknowledged the enviable performance of Governor Fashola and his contribution to the growth of investments in Lagos. He gave the assurance that he is not disturbed or angry with South-East and South- South votes for President Jonathan as perceived by the Eze Ndigbos. The Obas thereafter called on the Igbos chiefs to show appreciation to Lagos State by supporting his candidate Mr. Ambode for continuity of excellence as they have earlier promised.
He assured them of his continued support and assistance where needed and the meeting ended with the traditional breaking of kolas, alligator pepper, and bitter kola and pouring of liberation on the ground. It was within this context that that the tradition of Lagos with regard to the lagoon came up. It was noted that whoever works against the throne and the interest and peaceful co-existence of Lagos would end up in the lagoon as per tradition.
2.Oba Akiolu stated further that the Igbo people have not betrayed the throne. Lagos has also not betrayed the Igbo people. Lagos has done so much to make the Igbos comfortable and to prosper. For this, we expect reciprocal respect and understanding. The Oba of Lagos prays that the Lagoon and the throne will continue to bless and protect all those who reside and visit Lagos.
3. Oba Akiolu is the father of all irrespective of tribe, religion or political persuasion. In Lagos, we have an old traditional proverb that relates to the Lagoon. The Lagoon is unique to Lagos. The proverb stresses the need for unity and understanding when you do business in an environment and in this case when you live and do business in Lagos.
Oba Akiolu prays for peace for the land of Lagos and prosperity for all its inhabitants.

Borno Pastor :Oritsejafor's wife is lying,I didn't beg him over N7bn bribe
Borno State-based Pastor Kallamu Mus-Dikwa yesterday accused the wife of Christian Association of Nigeria’s (CAN) President, Pastor Ayo Oristejafo, of lying against him that he came to beg her husband over the alleged N7 billion collected from President Goodluck Jonathan ahead of the presidential election.
Pastor Dikwa had accused CAN of collecting N7 billion from President Jonathan to purportedly campaign against the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, in the rescheduled elections.
“I have not seen Pastor Oritsejafor for the past one and half years. They are the ones that have been sending emissaries to me for settlement, but I have always refused to go.
“The wife (Oritsejafor’s) is lying. I have never seen Ayo’s wife in my life. They have used the DSS (Directorate of State Service) to force me to write statements. They are lying against their spirits and their God.
“Let them bring witness (proof) that I went to beg Ayo. Is it in Abuja or Warri?.
“They have been sending men of God to me for settlement. The CAN’s North Central Zone Chairman, Yakubu Pam, even told me that I should go and meet Ayo and that he talked to him. But I refused.
“Many of them (Christian leaders) have been calling me asking me to meet the CAN leader and settle. And I said what for? In fact, they said I should not talk again and that they know that all I have been saying is true.
“Even they have called me, requesting that I denounced that they collected money and that they are going to give me money. But I refused.”
He called on “real men of God to come forward and dissolve the CAN leadership before it was too late”, if it refused to abide by his appeal.
The cleric noted that he was not surprise at the antics of the wife of the CAN leader to blackmail him since other means to arm-twist him to meet the CAN president had failed.
Mother, daughter give birth for same man, same week (photo)
A South African woman, Mildred Mashego, and her daughter Patricia, have entered the record books as the first mother and daughter to give birth to their babies in the same month and for the same man.
Times Live reports that 38-year-old Mashego of Casteel, South Africa, was pregnant when she learned that her 19-year-old daughter was also pregnant, and the two were due just days apart.
But her anger turned to shock when she found out that the man responsible for her daughter's condition was the same man who was going to be the father of her child, Vincent Malumane.
Patricia was the first to put to bed a bouncing baby boy, with her mother following suit four days after, wait for it, another boy, making them brothers, a nephew, an uncle and grandson.
The sharp shooter Vincent Malumane, admitted that he secretly had sex with the mother and daughter.
"I cannot go back now and explain what happened. All we have to do is focus on making sure that the children are properly cared for."
Mother Mildred admits that during her pregnancy, she was bitter that her daughter had slept with her boyfriend and had even considered having an abortion over the fact that her daughter was carrying a child from the same man.
However, after their babies were born, Mildred decided to forgive her daughter for the sake of her grandson. They are raising their children together.
The mother and daughter are concerned about what they will tell their children when they grow up.

I Was in a Cage For 16 Good Years: President Jonathan
President Goodluck Jonathan on Sunday, April 5, looked back at his years of service from being the deputy governor of his home state, Bayelsa, to when he became the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
The President said he had no doubt that he is the luckiest Nigerian.
He said,
“For me as an individual, this Easter coincides with the time I am leaving but I always say that I am one of the luckiest Nigerians. I am yet to see somebody luckier than me.
“From 1999, I was in the hands of government for 16 years. Not just in government as a parliamentarian because if you are a Senator or House of Representatives member, you take care of yourself, you live in your own house.
“I was in a cage, being taken care of by the government. From May 29, 1999 to date; 16 good years. I think it is enough and I am happy, help me to thank God for that.
“I will continue to thank Nigerians for giving me that privilege. I became a deputy governor because Bayelsans voted for me and my governor then. I became a Vice President because Nigerians voted for Yar’Adua and myself.
“I continued in 2011 because Nigerians voted for me and Architect Namadi Sambo. I have to thank all Nigerians. Wherever I will be, I will remain grateful to this great country. Today is a glorious day for me.”
Pastor accused of murdering pregnant British wife in hotel room in Ghana
A church preacher has been arrested regarding the death of his pregnant British wife, after her body was found in a hotel room in Ghana.
Charmaine Adusah, 41, was three months pregnant when her body was discovered face-down in a bath where it is believed she had been lying for four days.
Her husband, Eric Isaiah Adusah, 28, a self-proclaimed prophet and evangelical preacher, was alleged to have left the hotel hurriedly on the day she is believed to have died.
They checked into the Royal Mac Dic Hotel on Monday March 16 for five days, according to police.
The couple had reportedly disagreed over the length of stay in Ghana, with Charmaine Adusah wanting to stay longer, according to Ghanaian newspaper Daily Guide.
He told hotel managers at the time that his three-month pregnant wife was ill and did not want to be disturbed.

The Thrill of Thresome Sex in Marriage
I must confess that the first time I heard that some marital arrangements are beginning to accommodate this oddness…I did not believe it. Not until a lady wrote me a few days ago. That her ‘abroad returnee’ husband suggested they make their sex life more exciting by bringing in a female participant. This was after she had their second baby. She said that when she objected-he asked if she would rather prefer he starts cheating on her-with someone out there. She also claimed that he gave her the liberty to bring in whoever she prefers. Grudgingly-she gave in. That was the genesis of the ‘three some’ that is now threatening to tear her marriage apart. She said that on the occasions that the said lady (whom they normally pay off after every session) joined them…that her husband reluctantly touched her because he concentrated more on the other lady. And these days, he hardly touches her when they are alone!
Another male friend(whose line of business has to do with ‘women’s things’) said that a good number of his supposed married female clients have actually approached him with requests such as helping them to find a willing participant-in a ‘three some’ arrangement. These women take it upon themselves to look for a willing participant (usually young girls that are in for the money)-rather than risk their husbands making out (elsewhere) with someone they don’t know. I also hear there are exclusive social settings that are purely for couples that want to sample each other’s ‘better half’…this, they call ‘swinging.’
I have since been asking ‘must any woman reduce herself to this level (to an obviously weird man) in order to stay married?’ It is only a man with a questionable state of mind that will even dare think along this line. What are women letting themselves put up with-in the name of marriage? What else could be more degrading? Which ‘self respecting’ woman will put up with a mere suggestion of such ‘sickness?’
For goodness sake, there is little or no hope for any marriage whose sanctity is thrown to the dogs. A marriage should observe certain limits (e.g. keeping the marriage bed undefiled) based on the ‘values’ of those involved. If ‘love making’ is the way that I have come to understand it, I wonder what is there to enjoy when one can’t even focus on who he is in the act with. What joy is there to derive from prancing from one ‘body’ to another? Which woman is happy foregoing her ‘pleasure’ to watch her husband pound another in her presence? Why would anybody stick to such outright degradation?
If a man decides you are no longer good enough for him in the bedroom (despite your best efforts), please refuse to be part of any ‘sick’ idea he comes up with. Refusing to be dragged lower than you wish to go is not arrogance; it is self-respect and no self-respecting woman will let herself tolerate this sick arrangement-in the name of marriage.
When you give wings to every weird imagination that crosses your mind…you will remain slave to every ‘unwholesome thought.’ To live a happy life, you must maintain a good deal of ‘restraint.’ One should cultivate some values too; you should be able to say ‘no’ to certain weirdness.
It’s abhorable that young girls (I hear they now do it for more money from their patrons) who wish to live respectable lives- someday, allow themselves to be reduced in this manner but for a married woman to stick same is oddness is an understatement!

"Buhari's Victory confirms Rev.Mbaka is a true prophet of God"-Spokesman
Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka of the Adoration Ministry, Enugu, has issued his congratulations to General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd.) on his victory in the March 28 Presidential election.
Speaking through his spokesman, Maximus Ugwuoke, Mbaka advised Buhari to avoid the same mistake Jonathan made by surrounding himself with the wrong people..He also said he will be the first to condemn Buhari if he fails to live up to expectations.
The cleric’s spokesman said:
“It is with vindictive joy and glory to God that the Adoration Ministry, the nation and indeed the world saw the fulfillment of Fr. Mbaka’s New Year prophesy of change with the miraculous, victorious emergence of General Muhammed Buhari at the March 28th polls as the President-elect of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
“We wish to restate that before President Goodluck became the President of this country, Fr. Mbaka prophesied it in his message titled ‘Okolo.’ Today again, Buhari’s victory, among other lessons it portends to Nigerians, has once more confirmed to all and sundry that Fr. Mbaka is indeed a true Prophet of God and that his New Year message was indeed from the Oracle of the Holy Spirit as he declared.
The ministry with magnanimous heart holds no grudges against anyone who attacked it in one way or the other at the rage of the controversies surrounding Fr. Mbaka’s message and view their actions as being orchestrated by their misconstruing of Fr. Mbaka’s prophetic calling.
The Ministry joins the rest of Nigerians to congratulate Buhari as God’s chosen instrument of change to tackle the myriads of problems facing Nigeria and pray God to endow him with the wisdom to go about this onerous task.
We see Buhari’s victory as divine victory to all Nigerians irrespective of our religious and ethnic divide.”
“The prayer of Fr. Mbaka is that God will give Buhari wisdom not to surround himself with wrong people – that was the major problem Jonathan’s administration faced.
Fr. Mbaka has advocated that Nigerians should be patient with Buhari because the holes dug in the country are too much – holes of corruption, holes of unemployment, among others.”
