The Secret Pains Of A Pastor.

 

Pastoring is a great and honourable call but with many secret pains at times. 

Some of the pains come from Satan himself, some from wicked and unreasonable people while some regrettably come from members of the fold meant to love and celebrate their Shepherd.

To some, the Pastor is already a suspect of many things who must constantly prove that he/she isn't what they have concluded in their minds.

For instance, if a member of the Church testify of a new car or house, people will thank God for his faithfulness but if a Pastor gets a new car, the church account must be checked first incase he has stolen from there.

If a church member or even worldly people becomes successful in their career, people gather to declare "What God cannot do does not exist" but if a pastor grows and becomes successful, he is attacked and criticized.

When a Pastor is celebrated, he/she is accused of being worshipped but if people of social status in society are celebrated, we all join to clap for them.

The pastor gathers crowd? He must be using charm.

The pastor is not doing well? The genuineness of his call is queried?

The Pastor thanks God and express his blessings openly, he is showing off.

He doesn't do it? He is secretive and ungrateful.

There are several secret pains a Pastor goes through on the course of fulfilling his ministry but the beauty is that God recognizes divine call as an Honour (HEB.5:4).

Therefore, if you are a pastor and you encounter any of these pains, please don't feel bad, it's part of the job. It should rather remind you that you are in the right path.

Congratulations!

I celebrate all genuine Pastors today.

CHC Int'L Youth Fellowship Offers Scholarship to Less Privileged Youths

 

By Chidex Onyemah.

The Youth Fellowship, Christ Holy Church International has offered scholarship to two indigent youths to study Computer Hardware Engineering and Multimedia Technology at the NationBuilders College of Technology, Asaba (NABCOTECH) after multiple stage screening exercise.

The scholarship, which was officially presented to the beneficiaries Miss Obioha Ezinne Marycynthia and Master Ebele Ifeanyi Desmond at the Adadioranma Hall, NationBuilders College of Technology, Asaba, on Friday, November 4, 2022, shall cover the registration, tuition and accomodation fees of the beneficiaries for their two-year study programs.

Presenting the scholarship certificates, the International Chairman of the Youth Fellowship, Dr. Smatt Aguba revealed that the scholarship scheme was an initiative to empower the youths of Christ Holy Church International.

"This scheme is not basically for those with high O'level scores, but to those who are less privileged. The Youth Fellowship, through her Corporate Social Scheme, intends to give back to the Nation Builders Commonwealth, which shall be a bi-annual exercise. This shall continue, as the Fellowship plans on setting up Youth Fellowship Scholarship Trust Fund, to sponsor more youths of the church" he said.

Dr. Aguba charged the scholarship beneficiaries to be productive, innovative, well behaved and serious with their studies. He promised to often pay surprise visits to the College to monitor their academic and moral performances.

In his words: "As beneficiaries of the first edition of this scholarship scheme, you are automatically our brand ambassadors and as a result of this, you must make sure you make yourselves outstanding role models among your colleagues. We shall not hesitate to terminate this scholarship, if you are found involved in cultism, examination malpractice, sexual harrasment etc."

The Youth Chairman encouraged them to take advantage of this opportunity to rewrite their family stories. He urged them, not to let their family backgrounds, pull them down.

Also speaking, the Registrar, NationBuilders College of Technology, Asaba, Engr Stella Emecheta, commended the Youth Fellowship of Christ Holy Church International for providing the scholarship scheme to sponsor indigent youths.

She encouraged the beneficiaries to put in their bests, informing them of the numerous prizes already in place for the best graduating student of each set.

Responding, one of the scholarship beneficiaries, Obioha Ezinne said she had always wished to win a scholarship for her tertiary education. She thanked the Youth Fellowship and promised to be a good ambassador of both the fellowship and the church.

Also present at the event were; the Vice Chairman of the Youth Fellowship, Hon. Charles Ideli, the General Secretary of the Youth Fellowship, Bro Chinedu Odiokwu, the Acting Librarian, NABCOTECH ; Miss Joyce Ezeonyido, among others.

IGP: Why we did not prosecute Tinubu for certificate forgery.

 

The Inspector General of Police, Usman Alkali Baba, has told a Federal High Court Abuja that the presidential candidate of the All Progressive Congress, Ahmed Tinubu, has no pending petition or criminal matters with the police anywhere in the country.

The IGP also clarified that Tinubu is not a suspect to the Nigerian Police.

The reasons why the police did not go after the APC Presidential candidate is contained in an affidavit filed at the Federal High Court in Abuja by a counsel, Wisdom Madaki.

In a counter affidavit to a suit instituted by a Civil Group seeking order of mandamus to compel the IGP to arrest and prosecute Tinubu for perjury and certificate forgery, the IGP maintained that the police have no power to prosecute Tinubu without any known offence committed.

The IGP however admitted having two different petitions from a Civil Group, Incorporated Trustees of Center for Reform and Public Advocacy requesting for arrest and prosecution of Tinubu for alleged perjury and certificate forgery related offences.

The IGP explained that the two petitions were predicated on allegations that had been adjudicated upon by the Supreme Court in 2002 in a suit filed by the late foremost human rights activist, Chief Gani Fawehinmi.

The affidavit averred that since the alleged perjury and certificate forgery had been resolved by the Supreme Court, there was no need for the police to reopen the matter.

Besides, the IGP said that police does not need any court order to make arrest and prosecute since it derives its powers from the Constitution and statutes.

The IGP is therefore asking the Federal High Court to dismiss the suit brought against him and the Nigeria Police Force for want of merit and jurisdiction adding that the plaintiff will not be prejudiced if the suit is dismissed.

At the day’s proceedings, counsel to the Civil group, Mister Eme Ekpu told Justice Inyang Edem Ekwo that the counter affidavit of police had just been served on him and he needs time to go through it and reply formally.

In a brief ruling, Justice Inyang Ekwo granted the request and fixed January 19, 2023 for hearing of the suit.

The Incorporated Trustees of Center for Reform and Public Advocacy had dragged the IGP before the Court over his alleged refusal to prosecute the presidential candidate of the APC over allegations bothering on perjury.

Davido's Son Death make his fans to mourn and pray

 

The news of the death of singer, Davido's first son, Ifeanyi, has left some of his fans in mourning.

 

Ifeanyi was said to have drowned in a swimming pool at the singer's residence in the Banana Island area of Lagos State.

 

While some Twitter users have expressed their condolences, others hang on to hope that the news is false.

 

A tweep, Peace Agina, expressed her pain saying, “The demise of Davido and Chioma's son is heartbreaking. No parent should lose their child. This is really sad. I pray God comforts them.”

 

Another tweep, Mr. Walter said, “The death of a child remains mysterious, unjust & questionable to his/her creator. My condolences to Davido, his fiancée, Chioma. May God grant them the fortitude to bear this loss. The global entertainment industry is traumatised by this sad occurrence.”

 

A tweep, Mr Sam, shared his faith that Ifeanyi is still alive and said, “Till Davido tweets about it, Ifeanyichukwu lives. I want all parents to join me & say! no matter how old I am, I shall never witness the death of my children. Amen.”

Oluwadamilola90, hoped to get positive response from Davido saying, “Waiting for positive news from #davido since last night. Good Lord show mercy."

Davido and Chioma loses their son Ifeanyi to the cold hands of death.

Ifeanyi Adeleke, the 3 year old son of Music star, Davido and his fiancee, Chioma Rowland has sadly died.

The tragic death occured on Monday, October 31. Ifeanyi died by drowning at his dad’s Banana Island home. He was rushed Evercare Hospital in Lekki where he was pronounced dead on arrival.

The couple had traveled for a family gathering to Ibadan yesterday and had left Ifeanyi with his minders who can’t explain how he entered the pool without being noticed and drowned. 

We gathered that quite a number of people at Davido’s House when the incident happened have been arrested. 

A distraught and inconsolable Davido was removed from Evercare Hospital and taken to his father’s house where he remains as at press time. 

This is so sad. May God give Davido and Chioma the fortitude to bear this deep loss.
