ANYONE CLAIMING TO RECEIVE CREDIT ALERT THROUGH PRAYER SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED – PETER OBI

The Labour Party’s 2023 presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has stated that anyone claiming to receive credit alerts through prayer should be investigated for potential theft.

In a clip from his interview on the Honest Bunch podcast released on Sunday, Obi emphasised the importance of hard work and productivity, stating that God cannot bless “someone who is sleeping.”

He said, “God can bless hard work; God can bless productivity; God can bless an industry, but God cannot bless someone who is sleeping.

“Anyone who tells you that he got an alert from praying should be arrested. He has stolen someone’s money. Simple!”

Addressing the controversy surrounding tithing, Obi suggested that charitable works are forms of tithing.

“If you go to the hospital, it’s tithing. If you help poor people, it’s tithing,” he said.

In addition, Obi urged political leaders who prioritise financial gain to reconsider their career path, stating that leadership should focus on serving the people, not on personal gain.

He said, “Being a leader is not a money-making venture. You’re not competing with Dangote. Dangote is a businessman. You should focus on what you were elected for.

“You must choose your lane; if you want to be in government, be in government and serve the people. If you want to be a businessman, go and trade.”

PUNCH Online reported earlier today that Obi sparked mixed reactions among Nigerians with his recent suggestion to convert church vigils into night shifts to enhance productivity.

    CRISIS IN OLUMBA OLUMBA AS MEMBERS DESTROY SUCCESSOR’S PORTRAIT

    CRISIS IN OLUMBA OLUMBA AS MEMBERS DESTROY SUCCESSOR’S PORTRAIT A video has surfaced online showing members of the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star rejecting Roland Olumba Obu, the son of the Late Olumba Olumba Obu as their Messiah. Recall that the prolonged succession crisis in a Nigerian Christian religious sect, the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, has festered on since its founder, Olumba Obu, passed away. The crisis turned violent recently as angry worshippers in a particular branch in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State, became riotous, destroying the portrait of Olumba’s first son, Rowland, who leads a faction of the sect. Olumba’s daughter, Ibum, leads another faction. A video, which is being circulated on WhatsApp groups and Facebook, captured a man in a white cassock yanking off Rowland’s portrait from the wall and smashing it on the floor amid cheers from worshippers. Rowland’s portrait was hung near Olumba’s, but the angry worshippers did not attack the latter. “Bring it down!” a woman’s voice could be heard shouting in the background of the video as the man in a white cassock smashed the glass frame on the ground. “This is who we are worshipping,” a man’s voice could be heard shouting repeatedly as the camera panned and then focused on Olumba’s portrait on the wall. It is not clear when the incident happened. Amah Williams, the sect’s spokesperson, said the incident happened in Uyo at the sect’s Nsikak Edouk Avenue branch. Rowland and Ibum, with hundreds of their followers, are claiming the leadership of the 68-year-old sect after their father’s passing, causing a disastrous split in a once united and strong organization headquartered in the Biakpan community in Cross River State, Nigeria’s South-south. Mr Williams, the sect’s spokesperson, told reporters on Saturday in Uyo that those responsible for the incident belong to a breakaway faction called Brotherhood of the Cross and Star New Kingdom Ministry. He described them as rebels who do not want to accept Rowland’s leadership – he did not call Rowland by name as Olumba’s successor is revered among worshippers as “King of Kings and Lord of Lords, His Holiness Olumba Olumba Obu”. “They are rebels. They rebelled; they rejected the rulership of the Kingdom of Christ,” Mr Williams told reporters. “The holy image of our father is what we hold sacred,” he said, apparently referring to the destruction of Rowland’s portrait. A reporter asked the spokesperson what place Jesus Christ occupies in the Brother of the Cross and Star. “That same (Jesus) Christ is the one that came with the new name Olumba Olumba Obu,” responded. “If Olumba were to be a white man, black men would have gone to worship on his feet.” The over 1 million global members of the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star do not see themselves as a church but as the new Kingdom of God on Earth. They have also refused to admit that their founder had passed away as the sect has yet to announce his passing or publicly conduct his burial.

    STOP BRAINWASHING POOR MEMBERS WITH SOWING SEED – KUMUYI TELLS PASTORS

    STOP BRAINWASHING POOR MEMBERS WITH SOWING SEED – KUMUYI TELLS PASTORS The General Superintendent of the Deeper Christian Life Ministry, Pastor William Kumuyi, has urged Nigerian pastors to stop brainwashing their members with seed sowing for financial prosperity.Naija News reports that the clergyman appealed while preaching at a Christian meeting on Friday, October 18. Kumuyi said the ideal thing is for poor church members, especially widows, to receive help from their pastors by providing solutions to their needs and not being exploited with seed sowing. He also expressed concern about how church founders are getting richer at the expense of their members. He said, “Elijah added value to the people that are low and those widows that cannot pay back that is what the anointing does in our lives. You add value to people; to those who are down raise them up, those who are poor. There are preachers, they take the little that the widows have. In our nation here, they say if you sow this seed the Lord will multiply it a hundredfold. Let us be sincere, and if you are a preacher like that and you are here let’s talk; those widows have next to nothing, then we preachers we brainwash them and we tell them…and those poor widows what can they do? They just believe every word we speak and all they have, inheritance from their late husbands they put at the apostles’ feet, and after they have done that ‘God bless you, God bless you’ everybody can say that, and they (widows) go back home. Examine yourself, all those people that have given everything as their prophet told them in our land, where are they today, how are they feeling, how are their children doing, how are they sending their children to school instead of the prophet that has millions and millionaire already instead of him looking for the widows who their children are not in school and sponsor them just for God’s glory we don’t have that we only have those that take from the widows and render them poorer and they are getting richer and richer. “The preachers of today are getting richer at the expense of the members of their church. Let somebody speak out, tell our prophets, preachers, and bishops that this ought not to be. In the case of Elisha in the transformation of the nation he added supernatural supply to the suffering widows.”
