Mercy Johnson's birthday message 'I want to get the kids off the streets'

Today, I thought of many things I would love to have as birthday gifts and the many dreams I am still pursuing. In all of this I’m not losing sight of the fact that if not for God I might have ended up on the street like the many kids and young adults begging for food and some prostituting to make ends meet. If we know the circumstances that force some of these people on the street, we would spare a thought for them. I am where I am today purely by the grace of God and the grace of people who believed in me from the word go.

Recently, I was at the Boys Reform Home, Oregun, Lagos, the discussion I had with the principal Mr. Kotun and much later with the Special Adviser in charge of all remand homes in Lagos set me

Things falls apart in Taraba... Suntai dissolves Council but Speaker disagrees

The raging political crises in Taraba seems going unabated as the state Governor Mr Suntai has dissolved the state executive council and all other political appointees. This is even as the house of assembly has been polarized into pro and anti Suntai camps with the speaker leading the former whilst the leader of the house is heading the latter group. 

The opponents to the governor maintain that he is incapacitated and thus unfit to rule the state with a challenge to him to address the people of he state if otherwise. On the contrary, his supporters insists that the Governor has taken over the governance of the state haven sent a letter to the assembly intimating them about his return into the country and readiness to assume his duties.  This problem is reminiscent of the former President Umar Musa Yar’adua sickness and the political imbroglio that generated before the famous ‘doctrine of necessity’ by the national assembly which paved the way for the then Acting President Goodluck Jonathan to fully assume the mantle of Leadership of the country. This came after much pressure and protest by the various civil society groups who felt that a cabal had hijacked the governance of the country under the guise that Yar’Adua was hale and hearty.

Boy flies Arik Air from Benin to Lagos, hiding in tyre hole

A teenager beat airline and airport security at the Benin Airport and sneaked into the tyre compartment of a Lagos-bound Arik plane, where he flew safely to the Murtala Muhammed Airport, Lagos, on Saturday morning. There was, however, pandemonium at the airside of the Lagos airport when passengers disembarking from the aircraft saw the teenager as he emerged from the undercarriage (aircraft tyre hole) to join fellow travellers. The adolescent stowaway, identified as Daniel Ihekina, was immediately arrested by security officials at the airport. The Federal Airport Authority of Nigeria and Arik Air confirmed the incident.

Although the General Manager, Corporate Communications, FAAN, Mr. Yakubu Dati, said full and urgent investigation had commenced into the mysterious circumstances that led to the huge breach in airport and airline security, the situation has continued to beat the imagination of aviation authorities in the country. The situation, which has become a major source of worry among the authorities, has also led to a blame game

My affair with Pastor Biodun Fatoyinbo of COZA Abuja ..... Ese Walter

Keep an open mind as you read this because this is just one side of the story. A lady named Ese Walter (pictured above) is accusing a pastor with the Common Wealth Of Zion Assembly of manipulating her sexually/spiritually. Now don't read this article if you are the holier than thou ones that thinks some pastors are saints who can do no wrong or have personalized the  'touch not my anointed  and do my prophet no harm' verse which some so called pastors and overzealous members have hidden under to threaten and harm other  church members. I am not saying her story below is true until we have a rejoined from the accused but until then, if we accept that issues like this happens in our society then we have a duty ti report and expose such 'men of God' who use the very fantastic christian religion to commit various atrocities.

Read Ese's story, which she shared on her blog, below...

This article contains stories that most ‘church people’ don’t want to address. So, if you are one of those living in denial and covering up crap going on in the church, this is where you should stop reading. Thanks for stopping by.

Now, for the rest of us, please sit down and switch on your open mind. I want to talk about something I have kept bottled up inside for longer than necessary. I have also decided to use real names, as my defense for any accusation of slander is justification. I tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but. However, feel free to throw your doubt around but know that I am past the shaming game (where victims of abuse are shot down by blame) I am no longer a victim but a survivor who is sharing her experience to help others caught in same web of abuse, guilt and shame. We only get to live once right? So here, it goes…
I recently came to know this event too was abuse (recently here means about 6 months ago). It has literally been eating me up having to drive by another billboard advertising preachers, or hearing his name, or even trying to ask about the validity of the entire salvation story and whether or not there is a God that truly watches over his people. That being said, I’m just going to say it as it is. This is a recap of my affair with Pastor Biodun Fatoyinbo of COZA (Common Wealth Of Zion Assembly) Abuja chapter. This affair I have come to know as a form of abuse as you would see the different elements of abuse very present.

I met Pastor Biodun Fatoyinbo many years ago. I was getting bored of the church I was attending and someone suggested COZA. At the time, I had never heard about it. My friend said, go there, I’m sure you would enjoy the word. But he also gave me a strong warning. He said he would advice that I remain a

Wentworth Miller... Prison Break star say he is gay

Prison Break star Wentworth Miller has published a strongly worded letter declining an invitation to attend a Russian film festival in light of the country’s new anti-gay laws. The actor, 41, who confirmed that he is gay publicly for the first time via the letter, turned down an offer to be a “guest of honour” at the St. Petersburg International Film Festival.

He wrote: "Thank you for your kind invitation. As someone who has enjoyed visiting Russia in the past and can also claim a degree of Russian ancestry, it would make me happy to say yes. However, as a gay man, I must decline."
"The situation is in no way acceptable," he wrote, adding: "I cannot in good conscience participate in a celebratory occasion hosted by a country where people like myself are being systematically denied their basic right to live and love openly."

There must be something that makes world stars and celebrities to turn to gay and lesbianism ...

'Chief Femi Fani-Kayode hereby expresses his deepest regrets for mentioning the names of three distinguished Nigerian ladies that he was once associated with in his last article titled ''A Word For Those Who Say I am A Tribalist''.
