Pastor Adeboye disowns hoax colour SMS
In a Facebook post, Adeboye urged people to disregard the messages as they did not emanate from either him or the church.
It reads, “Please inform all your friends and family members that I, Pastor E.A. Adeboye, did not send any message out informing you not to wear a particular colour and do not have any issues with whatever colour. “No message stating you should not wear a particular color was ever authorized by The Redemption Camp or my office. Please be mindful and careful of erroneous messages. “If you want a true change in your life be at The Redemption Camp, This Thursday at7 pm, Friday at 7 pm and Saturday at 7 pm. To ensure no one uses your blood for anything.”
Keshi hails Enyeama’s return to Israel
Super Eagles coach Stephen Keshi has
hailed Nigeria’s number one goalkeeper, Vincent Enyeama, for making a
return to Israel after a tumultuous time in the French Ligue One.
Eagles keeper Enyeama joined Maccabi
Tel-Aviv from French side Lille on a season-long loan on Wednesday,
after falling down the pecking order at the French club.
The Nigerian international arrived in
France last summer from Maccabi rivals Hapoel but the move has so far
failed to work out with the 29-year-old only playing three games.
Last season Enyeama was Lille’s second
keeper behind former French international Mickael Landreau but he has
been pushed to third choice after coach Rudi Garcia recently acquired
Steeve Elana from Brest.
But Keshi believes Enyeama’s move was
the best for the Nigerian number one, saying the player needed regular
club action in order to remain relevant in the national team.
Members free to challenge Oshiomhole at tribunal – PDP
Peoples Democratic Party Publicity
Secretary in Edo State, Mathew Urhoghide, has said the party will not
stop any of its members wishing to contest Governor Adams Oshiomhole’s
re-election.
Speaking exclusively with our
correspondent on Wednesday, Urhoghide however restated the party’s
decision not to seek redress at the state Election Petitions Tribunal
against Oshiomhole’s victory at the poll.
Chiding some of the party members for
not working enough for PDP’s victory before the July 14 poll, Urhoghide
who spoke on the telephone, said it would be near impossible to overturn
Oshiomhole’s election victory.
He said, “The party cannot stop any
member who feels aggrieved over the outcome of the governorship election
from going to court. It is their fundamental right, but the party has
taken a position that it will not go to court.
“That decision flows from the national
body of the party and that was why it was issued by the state party
chairman (Chief Dan Orbih). It is only the state chairman that is a
member of the National Executive Council, and that is why I don’t want
to comment much on the matter.”
Responding to a call by the leadership
of the PDP Edo South Senatorial district for the party’s standard
bearer, Charles Airhiavbere, to go ahead with his petition at the
tribunal and Appeal Court to challenge Oshiomhole’s electoral victory,
the Publicity Secretary hinted that it might be an exercise in futility.
“It is not only Edo South Senatorial
district that makes up the party. But anyone can exercise rights and the
PDP will not stop them. There are antecedents. The CPC said it will not
go to court following the outcome of the 2011 Presidential Election,
but Buhari went ahead with his litigation, and the party did not stop
him,” he said.
Urhoghide called on Edo PDP members to sheath swords and work for the progress of the party.

Before now, there are serious of insinuations and side talks about the retirement of the most respected and powerful clergyman, Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye, General Overseer of The Redeemed Christian Church of God. Even during his 70th birthday, some certain authorities in the church, we learnt, gathered to raise a motion that the man of God should be retired as he clocked 70.
In on of the articles written by the man of God, it was discovered that he has already written about the kind of retirement he wants. In this literary work, he well explained how he intends to retire.
The article culled from the Open Heavens annual publication of Monday October 3rd, 2011, Daddy Adeboye, as he’s fondly called wrote about `The True Face of Retirement. He said God has so much to give to man, and the spirit man has so much space to be filled by God…..``Sometimes, when I see some of our elders retiring, I shake my head because contrary to what they think, it is only the beginning for them. Retirement actually means more time to pray all night since you are not going to the office in the morning.
The greatest literally work done by John the Beloved was Book of Revelation-a revelation he got while banished on the Island of Patmos. If God allows me to retire, I would sit at His feet daily and learn from Him, receive revelations and pour these into books for generations unborn. This way, by His grace, I could produce a book every month until he calls me home.’’ Obviously, this should tell those who clamour for his retirement that the respected man of God whose regime as the G.O brought goodness to the church cannot be retired by any man but God.
It's so evident that even when God has permitted him to retire; he will still be involved in the work of God, publishing revelations from God to the members of the church and other denominations. ‘Would sit at His feet’, of course, the only place a man can sit at the feet of Christ is in the vineyard, so, it should be understood that until God says come home, Pa Adeboye remains the General Overseer of one of the biggest congregation churches in the world.
