‘I Cry Because of the Burdens People Carry’ – Pastor Jerry Eze Opens Up on Emotional Prayer Sessions

Renowned Nigerian televangelist and founder of Streams of Joy International, Pastor Jerry Eze, has revealed the deep emotional weight behind his tearful prayer sessions, sparking conversations among his followers.

Speaking during an interview to mark the fifth anniversary of his popular online prayer platform, NSPPD (New Season Prophetic Prayers and Declarations), Pastor Eze explained that his tears are not mere theatrics but a reflection of his overwhelming compassion for the countless people who seek divine intervention.

“The Bible says we do not have a high priest who cannot be touched with the feelings of our infirmities,” he stated. “I have always known myself to be a very compassionate person, and coming into ministry, I realized that compassion is an inevitable tool for the miraculous.”

According to him, his inbox is flooded daily with heartbreaking messages from people facing unimaginable hardships, making it impossible for him to remain indifferent. He recounted a particularly devastating story: “How do you make this kind of prayer? You see a woman who lost her husband, tried to remarry, lost the second one, and after everything, tried to marry a third time only to lose him too. How do you not feel that?”

Pastor Jerry Eze’s tearful prayers have become a signature aspect of his ministry, drawing millions to his online services. His explanation has further solidified his reputation as a pastor deeply moved by the struggles of his congregation, with many testifying to miraculous turnarounds after his intercessions.

While some critics have questioned his emotional displays, his followers see them as a sign of genuine empathy and spiritual burden. As NSPPD continues to grow globally, Pastor Eze remains committed to his calling, declaring, “What God cannot do does not exist!”

Governor Monday Okpebholo aide condemn killing in Uromi…..

No amount of pressure, frustration, or disagreement should ever justify the taking of another person’s life. Life is sacred, and the act of unlawfully ending someone else’s existence goes against the fundamental principles of justice, morality, and human dignity.

With that being said, the tragic incident that occurred yesterday in Uromi, the administrative headquarters of Esan North East where about eight person of the Hausa community where allegedly identified to be kidnappers beaten and burnt alive, is deeply condemnable. It is disheartening to witness such acts of violence within the uromi community, where peace and unity should be the guiding principles. The behavior exhibited during this unfortunate event was not only unnecessary but also unacceptable, as it disregarded the values of justice and respect for human life.

In times like this, we must remind ourselves that violence only leads to pain, loss, and division. As a people, we must strive for peaceful resolutions to any issues that may arise from our community and uphold the virtues of patience, understanding, and dialogue. No grievance, no matter how severe, should push anyone to commit such a grievous act.

My thoughts and prayers are with the family and loved ones of the departed. May their soul rest in eternal peace. Amen.

May God heal the land, restore peace, and guide us towards a society built on love, justice, and mutual respect.

Speed Darlington Sparks Outrage After Pricing Coffin for Portable

Controversial Nigerian rapper Speed Darlington has ignited a firestorm of reactions after a video of him pricing a coffin for fellow artist Portable surfaced online.

The drama between the two musicians escalated after Speed Darlington invited Portable to perform at his upcoming show, only to be met with rejection and insults. Portable, known for his outspoken nature, accused Speed Darlington of using his name for clout, insisting that his appearance fee was N20 million—an amount he claimed Speed Darlington couldn’t afford.

Following Portable’s refusal, Speed Darlington took to social media to express his frustration, stating that he regretted ever extending the invitation. He also revisited an old incident where Portable allegedly suffered a beating from an associate, vowing to release the footage as a form of public humiliation.

However, the feud took a darker turn when Speed Darlington shared a shocking video of himself negotiating the price of a coffin for Portable. In the clip, he was seen bargaining with an undertaker while directing his message at the Zazoo crooner. The video was captioned:

“@portablebaeby are you ready to die for not coming to my show April 13th?”

The post has since triggered widespread backlash, with many calling out Speed Darlington for taking their online banter too far. Some fans have dismissed the stunt as mere entertainment, while others have condemned it as insensitive and a potential threat.

As the feud continues to unfold, all eyes are on Portable’s response, with many wondering whether he will retaliate or simply ignore the provocation. Meanwhile, fans of both artists have taken to social media to share their opinions, with some urging them to settle their differences amicably.
