Corruption: NANS hails EFCC for recovery of 753 units of duplexes, others from ex-goverment official

Justice Jude Onwuegbuzie, on Monday, December 2, 2024 gave a ruling on a final forfeiture of the estate in Abuja measuring 150,500 square metres and containing 753 units of duplexes and other apartments.

The Estate which rests on Plot 109 Cadastral Zone C09, Lokogoma District, Abuja, was allegedly built by a top government functionary with the proceeds from his various corrupt and lawful activities while in office.

NANS in a statement on Tuesday signed by the Clerk of the Senate, NANS headquarters, Abdul-Yekinn Odunayo, in Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital, described the single largest asset recovery by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, since its inception in 2003 as a “huge achievement”.

Odunayo in the statement lauded the anti-graft agency for working assiduously to secure the forfeiture of the property illegally acquired through the court of law, urging it not to relent in its fight against perpetrators of economic and financial crimes irrespective of their social and political status.

He particularly commended the EFCC Executive Chairman, Mr Ola Olukoyede, for his resilience and courage to tackle corruption in both government and private establishments.

According to the statement, “Nigeria will be a better place if corruption can be tackled head on. With this forfeiture order secured by the EFCC, NANS strongly believes that jitters would have been sent down the spines of other corrupt public and government officials”.

Odunayo, however, urged the anti-graft to be buoyed by the latest achievement and go after more government officials who engage in unlawful practices to amass wealth and property.

He further called on the EFCC to beam its searchlight on different government ministries, parastatals and agencies of the government, saying “many of such sprawling estates in different parts of Abuja are said to be owned by top government officials”.

While urging the management of the EFCC to brace up as corrupt officials who are afraid of being uncovered and suffer similar fate may want to fight back, NANS Clerk of the Senate added that the asset tracing and recovery policy must be extended to the state level.

He submitted by charging the EFCC boss to continue his internal sanitation of the anti-graft agency to weed out suspected corrupt officials and economic crime collaborators, in order for it to sustain its integrity.

Excitement as Zamfara Under Governor Lawal Begins Airlift of Pilgrims at Zamfara Airport

 

There is palpable excitement in Zamfara State as the administration of Governor Dauda Lawal officially commenced the 2026 Hajj airlift for pilgrims from the Gusau Airport (GIA). In a historic move aimed at easing the pilgrimage process, the state government announced that the first batch of pilgrims who departed for the Holy Land today, Friday, 15th May 2026.

This milestone marks the fulfillment of Governor Lawal’s promise to make direct departures from Zamfara a reality, eliminating the need for pilgrims to travel to other states for airlift. However, the state government has issued a strict advisory to the public regarding conduct at the airport. To ensure security and facilitate the smooth coordination of the airlift operations, escorting pilgrims to the airport is strictly prohibited.

Family members and friends wishing to bid farewell to their loved ones are directed to do so only at the Hajj Camp. The restriction, according to officials, is a necessary measure to prevent congestion and maintain order at the airport premises. Officials confirm that the airlift is now underway at Gusau International Airport. The development has been met with widespread praise from intending pilgrims, who expressed relief at being able to begin their spiritual journey directly from their home state.

The Zamfara State Government extended its sincere gratitude to Governor Lawal for his commitment, emphasizing that the direct airlift reflects a new chapter of convenience and efficiency for the state’s annual Hajj operations.

Dr. Chris Okafor Declares Grace Nation Is In The Season Of Signs And Wonders

…Reaffirm that when disobedience occurs, God’s Kingdom withdraws; serving with sincerity and fervor leads to triumph

~By Sunday Adeyemi

 

The metamorphosis of Grace Nation into a terrestrial paradise is palpable, with multifaceted miracles manifesting daily, as it has evolved from a church into a comprehensive movement where the all-powerful hand of God operates in diverse dimensions

The 14th of May 2026 midweek Prophetic Healing Deliverance and Solutions service was a testament to the power of faith, witnessing remarkable displays of miraculous healings, deliverances, and solutions. God’s omnipresent hand was visibly manifest, touching lives and restoring health, notably in the case of a man afflicted with body pains for 26 years, who, after being prayed for by the Generational Prophet, experienced instantaneous relief.

During the midweek service, a notable miracle took place when an 11-year-old boy who was born mute spoke for the first time. Furthermore, a woman carrying twins for an extraordinary period of 2 years was suddenly delivered; labor ensued immediately after she received prayer, necessitating her hospitalization. In a stunning display of divine intervention, growth ceased, and a woman testified to the efficacy of the Generational Prophet’s prayers, which had been offered on her behalf a few weeks earlier. Specifically, her business-related struggles seemed insurmountable until her tricycle, which had lain dormant for weeks, suddenly sprang to life without any mechanical intervention.

Marital obstacles hindering the two brides-to-be were removed, as many expectant mothers were blessed with miracle babies. It is evident that Grace Nation is undergoing its phases of astounding Signs and Wonders.

Generational Prophet Dr. Chris Okafor, in his teachings on ‘Dealing With My Daddy’s Devil,’ points out that the sins of fathers can weigh heavily on their children, and unless one actively works to break this cycle, generational battles will inevitably continue from one generation to the next

*How to Deal with Your Daddy’s Devil*

To successfully address the issue of generational curses or strongholds in your family, it is necessary to understand the underlying spiritual principles and technical aspects. Knowing the source and method of entry of the devil into your bloodline, as well as the reasons behind its establishment in your father’s house, is vital. By understanding these key concepts, you will be able to make positive changes and effectively deal with these generational battles

*Breaking Free from Generational Conflict.*

In order to overcome the devilish influences of your father, serving your Lord and Savior in truth and spirit is essential; this empowers and elevates you above all earthly struggles

A strong prayer life is crucial for spiritual well-being; the devil commonly uses the depletion of one’s prayer life as a tactic to dominate the lives of God’s spiritually vulnerable children

Hence, the sole legitimate approach to terminating the devil’s influence within one’s family lineage involves authentic devotion to God, necessitating a superior force to dislodge an entrenched inferior spirit, with Generational Prophet of God Dr. Chris Okafor underscoring adherence to covenant principles as pivotal in transcending intergenerational curses

The midweek Prophetic Healing Deliverance and Solutions (PHDS) took place at the International Headquarters of Grace Nation Worldwide, situated in Ojodu Berger, Lagos, Nigeria.
