 The 72-yr-old renowned religious leader who was reported to be angered by certain incidents in the church said most of the doctrines were man made and was created by him

Founder of Deeper Life Bible Ministry, William Folorunsho Kumuyi, announced that he would be scrapping certain rules and doctrines which has been since inception of the church.

Pastor Kumuyi who reportedly said so  during Sunday sermon while speaking on the topic The Word in A Transformed Believer’ where he openly chastised some sections of the church, stating that some leaders have misused church doctrines.

The 72-yr-old renowned religious leader who was reported to be angered by certain incidents in the church said most of the doctrines were man made and was created by him, not that they were from the scriptures – the reason of which is to set people on the right path  but are now being transformed into the things of this world.

It was gathered that Kumuyi went on to announce that most traditions that were borrowed into the church are going to be demolished.

He went on to go against the tradition usually observed by the Church’s marriage committee, which is peculiar to Deeper Life

According to reports, he asked the congregation “Are we not conforming with the world. Why are you dressing like of the world?” He then called on the men to be in charge in their own home saying, “Women ministry is our own making, and if we find out that the women ministry is taking us into the world and we are helping each other on how to leave like the world and marry like the world and deal with your husband like the world – if it is not helping us and if it is going to hinder us, we strike if off.”

Kumuyi said, “Before I leave, I mean before I go, I am going to remove everything that I set up, that I thought will help Deeper Life and make us Holy, make us sanctified, make us deep, make us deeper. And I see it is not making us deeper, before I leave, I will uproot all of them and present to you a pure church before I leave. “What am I afraid of? I can only be afraid of the judgement of God, therefore whoever responds, praise the lord, whoever reacts praise the lord. We are going to stand on the word of God. “By the grace of God I am not going yet, but, before I go and I am telling you and all our leaders can hear.

He continued, "I am not going to hand over Deeper Life to somebody who will come and destroy everything we’ve built up for years, because he’s man pleaser, women pleaser, never! Somebody who will stand on this word and earnestly defend the faith once delivered unto the saints, that’s what we are going to do. And the whole church will unite. We are not looking for graduates, degrees- whoever! Peter did not have a degree. “Whoever, will maintain that sanctification, Holiness without which no man shall see the Lord, Whoever will have backbone and be willing to stand faithful, sacrifice everything and bring to church to obedience to the word of God, that’s the kind of leader, God will raise up for Deeper Life after I am gone.”

It further learnt that while the sermon lasted, a lot of members especially women began to weep.

Laurence Fishburne’s 80-year-old mother alleges she’s facing eviction because he’s cut her off

Read Time:1 Minute, 31 Second

Laurence Fishburne is a successful, critically acclaimed actor with roles on hit shows on both ABC and NBC, not to mention a part in the upcoming Superman v. Batman: Dawn of Justice film.

Yet, his mother recently told the New York Post that she is broke and facing eviction because he refuses to reach out to her.

“He’s gone Hollywood.  For 20 years, I funded my son’s career. He promised me he would take care of me. … To this day, I have not got a Christmas present or a ‘Thank you, Mama’ present. He hasn’t given me a penny,” she told the newspaper.

Hattie Crawford Fishburne, 80, claims she’s being kicked out of her $1500 a month Los Angeles apartment due to overwhelming living expenses. She receives $3,000 a month from social security and her pension from years of teaching in public schools in Brooklyn and Los Angeles but is struggling to pay the medical bills from her arthritis, under-active thyroid, high cholesterol and injuries she sustained in a massive car crash.

Despite her attempts to reach out to her famous son, she says he hasn’t returned her calls in a year, and now, she faces being evicted from her home tomorrow, Tuesday the 31st.

This isn’t the first time Fishburne has estranged himself from a member of his immediate family. His daughter Montana has admitted he stopped speaking to her when she started appearing in porn videos. She was last reported to be working as a stripper in Texas.

Fishburne, who played the iconic character of Morpheus on the “Matrix” trilogy, is worth an estimated $20 million and also stars in and produces ABC’s new hit comedy Black-ish.

Polling Units’ Allocation: Jega’s northern agenda finally uncovered!

0 0
Read Time:7 Minute, 20 Second

INEC Chairman insists on favouring the North and you can see Why National Assembly must understand the issues and not be taken for a ride

In this piece, which is a continuation of the national service to ensure that Nigeria’s Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, and its national chairman, Professor Attahiru Jega, do not surreptitiously engender a policy that deliberately hands numerical superiority of Polling Units, PUs, which Nigeria’s Supreme Court described as “roots which nourish the whole electoral process”, to the North, further investigations have uncovered the details of the warped allocation process.

Mercifully, Jega’s visit to the National Assembly ended on a note that senators would study the figures and make up their minds.  Yet, every explanation by Jega has blind-sided the real issues and further exposed the real and perceived under-pining raison d’etre for the lopsided allocation.

Jega’s blatant lie or crass ignorance
Does the number of polling units confer political advantage on a state/region? The answer simply is ‘No’ – Professor Attahiru Jega, defending his illegitimate and lopsided allocation of Polling Units.

For an acclaimed professor and activist election manager of repute, it is either Attahiru Jega chose to barefacedly lie about, or is ignorant of the wonderful potentials for political advantage that a lopsided allocation of Polling Units, PUs, confers on a state/region.

Perhaps, blinded by a need to justify his mandate on the issue of PUs, Jega’s spirited efforts at defending the indefensible only continue to pour cold water on his every move.
To help Jega, Sunday Vanguard went as far as sourcing for and getting portions of a Supreme Court judgment which pooh-poohs his claims.

The pronouncement of the Supreme Court, in Ajasin vs Omoboriowo’s case, January 8, 1984, as per Mohhammed Bello (JSC), declared that “polling booths (which make up PUs) are the base of the pyramid which forms the electoral process under the provisions of the Electoral Act….the booths are the roots which nourish the whole electoral process (and the manipulative parts thereof)…”.

The  highest court in the land dwelt extensively on what it called the “manipulation” and “rigging” that polling units can be used for in determining the outcome of election.
New PU allocation in practical terms means the provision of voting facilities for 500 eligible voters. This means that when a state gets 1,000 new polling units it has new facilities to accommodate 500,000 eligible voters.

In practical terms, it means that INEC has prepared new facilities for over 500,000 new voters in each of some 11 states in the North that already have more than 1,000 new PUs, and only Lagos in the South

The latter explanation means that the beneficiary states must have increased their previous figures of eligible voters by about 500,000 eligible voters. Evidently, this is not the case from the outcome of the Post-Business Rules figure of the beneficiary states in the North.

More significantly, Borno and Yobe states got 1,333 and 790 new PUs. These are states with over 400,000 internally displaced persons who have moved to several states in the Middle Belt and mainly to the South.
That is not all.

The curse of selectivity
When you choose to engage in an argument and you believe and, therefore, insist that others are not equipped to read between the lines because of your seemingly saintly sense of propriety, you’ve got something else coming.

In INEC’s rebuttal of accusations of sectional bias in the creation of new PUs, the Commission embarked on wanton waste of public funds by publishing a speech which some have derisively condemned as lacking both in substance and depth in so far as the real issues are concerned. Take, for instance, the issue of figures.

INEC deliberately and understandably failed to publish its declared 2011 Registered Figures and, more importantly, the outcome of the Post-Business Rule that shows clearly the massive reduction of figures across the 36 states including the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Abuja.

Instead and attempting to be clever by half, the Commission chose to use the Post-AFIS  figures without showing the progression from declared figures which, by its own admission, contains names of   eligible voters but with incomplete registration data such as absence of biometrics and facial image.

This return to Post-AFIS figures was deliberate on the part of the INEC spin-doctors given that the Commission’s clean-up of the register has brought daylight into the magic of many states that claim high population figures.

The question to ask Jega is, why did his Commission choose to use data that it did not employ for Anambra, Ekiti, Osun and would not be employing for the coming Adamawa State governorship election?

Mind you, INEC would not also be using post-AFIS for the 2015 election.
In addition, the Permanent Voter Card, PVR, is based on the Post-Business Rule and not Post-AFIS.

More, INEC, by its own admission and based on returns, has been able to establish that it issued less PVCs than the figures in the Post-AFIS data.
So, why did it publish the figures therein to deceive Nigerians?
That is not all.

Does it then make sense to increase the number of Polling Units in many states in the North where INEC regionalist proponents have allocated whopping new Polling Units at the expense of almost all states in the South?

DISTORTIONS AND FALSEHOOD
But this re-enforcement of the lie, is the foundation of the distortions and falsehood peddled in INEC’s feeble attempt to explain its disproportionate PUs allocation.
Because INEC is yet to conclude CVR in 12 states, Jega should explain to Nigerians why the Commission was in so much haste to allocate PUs.
The table below exposes the lies that INEC has been trying to cover up with very little success.

PLAYING WITH FIGURES FOR CONCEALMENT
INEC tried to conceal the facts by publishing state by state allocations to make it look as if there were insignificant changes; by disaggregating the whole into current number of Polling Units per state, the disproportions were swallowed up making it look as if most of the states had almost similar or proportionate Polling Unit allocations.

A simple subtraction of the change in existing Polling Units to the current number  per states after the new allocations reveal the following disparities:
11 out of the 12 states which got over 1,000 new PUs are in the North.
States such as Katsina, Kano, Niger, Kaduna and Zamfara, just like the FCT, each got more new PUs  than the entire South-East.

All the five states which got 121 new PUs, namely Anambra, Bayelsa, Ekiti, Enugu, and Osun states, are in the South – allocation of 121 units only means the states got basically nothing, because all other states got 121 PUs before further new allocations were made

Imo State got 154 new PUs (almost nothing) whereas states   in the North like Kebbi and Adamawa, which are at par with Imo State in terms of the Post-AFIS figure of eligible voters (see table above) used by INEC for allocation, got almost 700 or more new Polling Units.

Similarly, Oyo State got 528 new PUs whereas it should be at par in allocation with states like Bauchi, Borno and Niger States, given the figure of eligible voters used for these states which all got over 1,000 new PUs allocated to them. Specifically, Niger State got 1,151 Polling Units more than Oyo which has 50,000 more eligible voters than Niger State in the figures used by INEC above.

How could it be explained that Oyo State, where you have Ogbomosho and Ibadan the second biggest city in Africa, now having less voters than   Borno, the hotbed of insurgency and, worse still, Yobe, that has 790 PUs compared to Oyo’s 528 ?

By the same token, Osun State has about 40,000 voters more in the figures used by INEC above, than Yobe State.

But while peaceful Osun State got basically no new Polling Unit allocations considering that the 121 it got is a baseline allocation for all states, Yobe State, which is at war, where most of the population has be driven away by strife, got 790 new PUs allocated to it. The question is why?

It is unimaginable how far INEC is ready to go to try to gloss over this obvious inequity and iniquity; the more it tries to explain it, the more it impugns its integrity

Dramatic changes in the Senate

0 0
Read Time:1 Minute, 46 Second

The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP was on the verge of losing out in the control of the National Assembly for the first time after a National Assembly election yesterday.

With results trickling in from the states after last weekend’s National Assembly elections, the PDP was losing in a number of constituencies that had in the past safely laid in its comfort. As results trickled in yesterday it emerged that the party had lost the Senate seats it won in 2011 in Kogi, Kaduna, Kwara, Sokoto, Bauchi, Borno, Adamawa, Benue States.

Among the most notable losses were Senators Ahmed Makarfi, who lost his Kaduna North Senate seat to a former commissioner in his own administration, Ahmed Hunkuyi, Senator Smart Adeyemi who in one of the most surprising developments lost his Kogi West Senate seat to Dino Melaye among others.

Governors Babangida Aliyu of Niger State and Gabriel Suswam of Benue State also lost in their separate bids to proceed to the Senate. Both men lost to candidates of the APC. Suswam’s loss of the Benue Northwest Senate seat to the incumbent came after he successfully picked the PDP Senate ticket from Senator Barnabas Gemade in a race the later alleged was fraught with irregularities.

The outlook of the new Senate inevitably puts the PDP as the minority party in the chamber. The hustling for principal positions is set to immediately kick off and with indications that the position of Senate President could go to the North Central it opens a potential battle between two of the leading opposition leaders, Senators Bukola Saraki and George Akume.

Those insisting that the position would go to the North Central say that it had always been the practise for the Senate President to come from the same section of the country as the president. All through the Olusegun Obasanjo years in power, the Senate presidents came from the south and it did not shift to the north until 2007 when President Umaru Yar‘adua became president in 2007. However, with the death of Yar‘adua the position remained in the North.
