Revealed! Why Maureen Badejo Lacks Every Form Of Integrity By Femi Oyewale- There is an old saying that sticks to the head of wise people, and that is, time tells it all and practically reveals the trutH. Just because you knew the actual nature of Dr D.k Olukoya and the MFM ministries that they hardly and seldom speak about press matters, you decided to connive with evil doers, ungrateful ex ministers, workers that were relieved of their duties, and those who left thinking that they have better understanding of running ministries, to propel lies and fabricate nonsense against the church and her General overseer. But like I said, I have made it my primary duty as an investigative journalist to reveal the truth and nothing but the truth.

$MFM: Maureen Badejo's Lies Exposed During Live Show (video) By Femi Oyewale Just like I promised to keep the people of God and the entire populace informed with the truth and the current state of things, I am here again to burst yet another Maureen’s bubble of new set of 32 lies told so far about MFM but I will focus on 2 or 3 allegations that has made her the oaf that she is . I believe that after this, most of you watching and listening to her propagating her false stories will need to question the state of her mental health and if you are a follower its high time you thought twice. Let us check out a scripture before I expose her show of shame of the past few days. John chapter 8 verses 44. “Ye are of your father the devil (Maureen) and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, AND ABODE NOT IN THE TRUTH, BECAUSE THERE IS NO TRUTH IN HIM. WHEN HE SPEAKETH A LIE, HE SPEAKETH OF HIS OWN: FOR HE IS A LIAR AND THE FATHER OF IT” . Maureen is the mother of lies from the pit of hell where her father lives. She alleged in one of her recent live streams that a building called Shiloh has been pulled down because an investigation was launched based on her findings, She alleged that MFM KEEPS VIRGINS IN THE PROPERTY FOR RITUAL PURPOSES. What a laughable and terrible prejudice, this woman must really think highly of herself, to think that MFM LEADERSHIP AND THE GOVERNMENT OF NIGERIA WILL CONDESCEND SO LOW TO LISTEN TO HER BASELESS DISPLAY OF STUPIDITY AND ACT UPON IT, SHOWS THAT SOMETHING IS SERIOUSLY WRONG WITH HER STATE OF MIND. The only reason I take my time to write and publish these nefarious streams, are for CLARITY and the sake of the young Christians and the gullible viewers who are actually her target in this whole matter.. Some of the core values of MFM as a ministry IS SOUL WINNING, DELIVERANCE, REHABILITATION OF PEOPLE, and SPIRITUAL AND PHYSICAL SUPPORT TO MANKIND. For these reasons, MFM HAS BUILT OVER 22 FURNISHED BUILDINGS fondly called hostels, that house the needy, destitute, bereaved, widows, orphans, homeless students of universities, and lots more. Sometime ago, one of these properties, SHILOH, was noticed to have a defect in structure. As a matter of fact, it was sinking, and the state Government was invited for a thorough evaluation (THE LAGOS STATE GOVERNMENT BUILDING TASK FORCE ) of which they gave a report that the building be knocked down. (The new building ) In order to make provisions for the OCCUPANTS that lived in it, the MFM authorities built another structure and relocated the occupants before knocking the building down, AND THE NEW ONE WAS COMPLETED SOMETIME IN SEPTEMBER. These occupants are widows, male students, families that are in distress and many more, but not VIRGINS like Marine Maureen claimed, neither was the place investigated and pulled down because of her nonsense and empty allegations that have no bearing. Her second show of shame was a video she played in her stream of a fracas that took place during a political gathering in South America in 2018 where there were Gunshots and serious commotions, SHE CLAIMED THAT THIS HAD TAKEN PLACE IN ONE OF THE MFM BRANCHES IN THE UK. Without further ado, I would like to ask this woman of no self-value and proper understanding, one that obviously needs psychological treatment and mental evaluation these salient questions; 1 Which MFM branch in the UK holds services under an open roof as the video suggests? 2 How come people in the video are not predominantly Africans like you see in typical mfm gathering? 3 How come the people there are mainly South American and not Caucasians? 4 How come the church service has no women and children in the gathering taking cover? 5 How come there was no MFM LOGO present in the hall rather it was another logo entirely? 6 How come we didn’t hear of this DISRUPTED CHURCH gathering in the UK all these while?. if indeed it transpired in the UK, because if this had happened as you CLAIMED , it would have made headline news AND THE UK POLICE WOULD HAVE MADE ARREST don’t you think?. (CAN THIS BE MFM LOGO) Simply put, this is not an MFM GATHERING, NEVER WAS, and that event didn’t even happen in the UK but in her usual manipulative way to sway her followers and viewers she displayed HER IGNORANCE AND FOOLISHNESS by putting up this nonsense. The one that actually got to me in all of her shenanigans WAS WHEN SHE HOSTED THE PICTURE OF THE DEAD on her live stream and lied!!! That the man’s death was related to MFM, and started allegations and accusations on DR DK OLUKOYA UNTIL THE SON OF THE LATE MAN CALLED IN LATER ON THE SHOW and told her to pull her father’s picture down and that his death had nothing to do with MFM. Instead of Maureen to repent and apologize, she acted like she had done nothing wrong and remorselessly continued with her slanders and inhumane activities. I have drawn my conclusions that this woman needs mental evaluation and has serious issues and I would advise her friends and followers to ask her to seek counsel before its too late. Furthermore, I will leave Maureen and her follower with these 2 scripture one for Maureen -Proverbs 19:5 A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that speaketh lies shall not escape. (Tears will not help you now) and Exodus 23 for her followers- Thou shalt not raise a false report: put not thine hand with the wicked to be an unrighteous witness. I am ready to shade out all Maureen’s lies; as far as this matter is concerned we will update you with the facts and true picture of these satanic allegations as we continue with our investigation. FEMI OYEWALE Watch video 1,2 https://youtu.be/yFzKvXu_IyA https://youtu.be/tk3yHbNM3M0$

Last week I brought you the family of D.k Olukoya in a video having a fellowship. This is a family that the deluded Maureen Badejo alleged to have been dissolved, forgetting that there is a place for JOURNALISTIC TRUTH. I bet she doesn’t know what that means.

This week I am here to reveal more of her ignorance, lies, and alleged fabrications, just for you to know the kind of person her sheepish followers are dealing with and I pray she will not lead them to hell or detail them from their place of God’s intervention.

My article for today is based on the true reflection and story of the famous CHARITY COMMISSION CASE, THE 150,000 POUNDS ALLEGATION, AND CLARITY ON THE AMERICAN JUDGMENT MATTER that Maureen Badejo has constantly misled her viewers with.

If you observe carefully, you will realize that MFM is a church of principles and order. During this pandemic, MFM HAS COMPLETELY ADHERED TO THE SAFETY RULES AND REGULATION PUT IN PLACE BY THE GOVERNMENT TO KEEP PEOPLE SAFE. One thing you cannot take away from DKO is OBEDIENCE.

THE TRUE NATURE OF THE CHARITY COMMISSION CASE

FROM OUR INVESTIGATIONS AND REPORTS REACHING US, we found out that several times, Dr. Olukoya has warned the Pastors in the UK not to get involved in or accept Gifts, Aids from the government of the United Kingdom.

Gift Aid, by the way, is a sum of money the Government gives back to you when you give to charity.

Dr Olukoya openly describes Gift Aid as earthly reward for giving to charity and has severally expressed his belief that such reward is unscriptural and against Church doctrine.

Unfortunately, the MFM-UK has always been a problematic section of the MFM. Being a disciplinarian, Dr. Olukoya has in the past taken drastic actions against erring workers in the Church and has been dragged to court numerous times by such workers.

HOWEVER, SOME PASTORS WENT BEHIND HIS BACK AND COLLUDED WITH THE EXTERNAL AUDITOR WHOSE NAME MFM SHOPPED FROM THE CHARITY COMMISSION’S WEBSITE WITH RAVE REVIEWS AND THEY TOOK GIFT AID OF ABOUT 1 MILLION POUNDS FROM THE GOVERNMENT.

The people who took the money admitted the fraud and have started paying back.

It took time to find out and report this incident BECAUSE THE EXTERNAL AUDITOR WAS INVOLVED; the matter WAS SUCCESSFULLY SHIELDED FROM TIMELY DISCOVERY, until a few years later. The matter was reported also to the Police.

A simple investigation by Maureen would have shown her THAT THE ALLEGED CULPRITS WERE TWO FORMER PASTORS, AND AN AUDITOR FROM THE CHARITY COMMISION (name withheld and can be produced upon request). These are the CULPRITS OF THE MATTER and not Dr Olukoya who had no hand at all in the matter as alleged by Maureen Badejo. AS A MATTER OF FACT, MFM IS THE VICTIM IN THIS MATTER. It was simply a case of FRAUD AGAINST MFM.

Suffice to say at this point, that Dr. Olukoya has in letters dated 15th and 16 August 2019 written to the Charity Commission to challenge the non-factual nature of the report written about him on their website. The Commission in a terse reply dated August 20th 2019 indicated that it would address that complaint.

It was interesting to know from our findings that Dr. Olukoya does not draw a salary and does not get involved with the financial activities of every branch of MFM. The rapid expansion of MFM in the UK was more of a difficult task to handle initially and this gave the Trustees some ample time to put structures in place quickly enough to ensure stringent control.

Another frivolous allegation thrown out there by the psychologically and mentally disturbed Maureen Badejo was the matter of 150,000 POUNDS ALLEGED TO HAVE BEEN COLLECTED BY DR DK OLUKOYA FROM A CERTAIN MFM PASTOR to hide his atrocities.

From our investigation, this is a complete fabrication from the fevered minds of the defamer Maureen Badejo. Fortunately, all the people that took money illegally are still alive. The genesis of this allegation is that there was a lease of one of the branches in London which contained a clause that stipulated that any party who broke the Lease for any reason before its expiration would pay a penalty of 150,000 British Pounds to the other party.

We found out that the owner of the property broke the lease and sold the property to a third party, and the property owners honored their obligation and paid the penalty sum of 150,000 pound which the Pastor of the particular branch somehow used his personal account to claim. And this was unannounced

It was after a period of time that it was brought to the notice of the authorities at the Headquarters that such a transaction had taken place between the property owners and Pastor of the branch, and the headquarters immediately set up a panel to investigate the matter and give fair hearing to the Pastor concerned.

He attended the sitting of the panel and unequivocally admitted the theft. The Panel directed him to refund the money immediately. Upon receipt of the report of the Panel, the General Overseer issued the Pastor an ultimatum in writing to pay back the money within forty-eight (48) hours whereupon he promised to re-mortgage his house in London to comply. It was later brought to the attention of Dr. Olukoya that this ultimatum had not been breached by the Pastor who, on his own, began to repay the money by installments.

From the above narration, it is crystal clear to any unbiased mind that the money was stolen long before the Headquarters and Dr. Olukoya got to hear and that when they did, appropriate internal machineries were promptly put in place to investigate and recover it. And NO MONEY OF ANY KIND WAS PAID INTO DR DK OLUKOYA’S ACCOUNT THROUGH ANY MEANS OR BY ANY ONE. Maureen you and your cohorts need to get your heads examined.

THE AMERICAN MATTER AS MISINTERPRETED BY MARINE MAUREEN

I will quickly throw light on the AMERICAN CASE that has BEEN WON AND FORGOTTEN BY MFM. This ABYSMALLY misinterpreted by our illiterate “blogger” Maureen, TO THE PUBLIC. In our course of investigation after Maureen consistently accused the mountain of fire and miracles ministries of fraudulent acts on the case of pastor Lawrence Adetuniji on the taking over of the Maryland church in the USA, I will quickly want to do a brief summary of the matter.

MFM MINISTRIES filed action against pastor Adetunji who renamed MFM church after his own registered ministry. MFM MINISTRIES PUT IN TEN PRAYERS BEFORE THE JUDGE, INCLUDING ONE OF FRAUD. The Judge answered ALL the prayers but turned down the one we accused THE DEFENDANT of fraud, in order to further protect the personality of the individual involved in the case. But Miss Maureen misread this to mean that mfm is fraudulent. HOW DAFT AND DUNCE CAN SOMEONE’S BRAIN BE!

I would like to stop here today for I have more investigative journalism work to do, to bring the truth to you constantly. Maureen is on her Facebook page begging for funds for court cases meanwhile she doesn’t use their hard earned money for the cases. You can ask her to PROVIDE the names of her representatives whether she has any that make sense.

Celebrating Sir Edwin Ogidi-Gbegbaje At 60 By Jimmy Enyeh

Majority of Deltans are unanimous in their submissions that the name of
Sir Edwin Ogidi-Gbegbaje, a celebrated top civil servant and retired permanent secretary in Delta State Government House has been recorded in the good side of history.

As he clocked 60 today, family members, friends, associates and well wishers have been falling over themselves to pay tribute to a kind hearted and jolly good fellow.

Edwin, a scion of the famous Gbegbaje family in Ekpan, Uvwie Local Government Area of Delta State, a family noted for producing top bureaucrats and influential public servants.

For 35 years until he retired in January 2024, he added values to Delta State civil service, deepening its positive nuances and was one of the people that nurtured the civil service of the young state upon creation in 1991 to its now enviable heights, setting it along with others on a trajectory that has made it one of the best in the country.

Gbegbaje’s story is far from the proverbial rags-to-riches . He was born into comfort and high society, but suddenly lost his affluent parents in his first and third years at the University of Jos, but with good counsel and guidance of relatives who were bureaucrats, Edwin Ogidi-Gbegbaje made a career choice that saw him becoming a permanent secretary at 46, a very rare feat in those days.

In an interview conducted three years ago to celebrate his 57 years, he offered a glimpse into his life, challenges and triumph. “I come from the larger Gbegbaje family in Ekpan, Uvwie Local Government Area of Delta State. We have quite several branches of the genealogical tree. We have the Abesan. The patriarch of the family is Chief Gbegbaje Dasone.

“We have Oloyo Gbegbaje and Ogidi Gbegbaje. My parents were civil servants like myself. My mum was a social welfare officer who rose through the ranks.During the late Ambrose Ali administration in Bendel State, she was appointed permanent secretary. My father was a medical doctor.

“He was the first radiologist in the defunct Bendel State and second in the country. My father was the chief consultant radiologist in Bendel State. I also have an uncle, Mr. K Gbegbaje who was a permanent secretary. When he retired, he became the Chairman of Bendel State Civil Service Commission. I have an uncle who was the first Accountant-General of Kwara State. He was in the northern civil service in the 60s.He later became Chairman of National Oil. I am from a family of bureaucrats. I attended Emotan Primary School in Benin.

“I proceeded to Edo College. When I left Edo College, I had the desire to leave Benin. Even when I was admitted into UNIBEN to study Economics and Statistics, I wasn’t enthusiastic. So, I got admission to study Political Science in Jos in 1981. Prof Emovon from UNIBEN was the Vice-Chancellor in Jos at the time. As I was entering, Jos ceased being a campus of the University of Ibadan. I was there from 1981 -1985. I graduated before my 21st birthday.

“Unfortunately, I lost my dad as I was entering the university in 1981. When I was just getting into my third year, I lost my mum.

It wasn’t easy being the eldest among my siblings. In fact, I was encouraged to come for Christmas holiday in Benin without knowing that the evening of my arrival in Benin was the period of my mum’s service of songs.

“I didn’t have an inkling that such a thing had happened. I didn’t even hear that she was ill. I was shocked when I saw canopies in my compound at Ovie Whiskey Avenue close to Ekhewan Campus. A prominent Jos-based businessman from Ughelli encouraged me to visit home for Christmas.

“I graduated in 1985 and taught at a secondary school in Iko-Eket, Cross River State. Just as I was finishing, there were some advertisements for jobs. I didn’t see the one for NNPC early enough.Towards the end of 1988, my uncle who was the Chairman of Bendel State Civil Service Commission, said since I couldn’t get a private sector job, I should participate in extended interviews, especially since I had sat for ASCON examination.

“He advised me to start a career in the civil service. By the end of 1988, letters of appointment were out. I wasn’t conscious of the fact that the person who resumes first becomes the senior in service. I didn’t resume early. My uncle said I was supposed to have resumed instead of waiting to resume in the New Year. A few of my friends who were conscious of it had resumed and they became my seniors in service. I resumed on January 3, 1989.

“That was how my career started. We were supposed to come in as administrative officers Grade 7, but at that time there was a decree. So, by the time we came in, we were designated as personnel officers. We were regarded as the special class.

“Upon the creation of Delta State on August 27, 1991, we all had to move to Asaba. In fact, the movement was swift.
We were all not fully prepared for the swift movement. There was a surge of human beings into Asaba with the state creation. A lot of us couldn’t get accommodation in Asaba when we came. In fact, I stayed in Ibusa for nine years. It was when I met my wife that we moved to Asaba. A lot of my colleagues were sleeping in the offices then.

On his retirement, the Delta State governor praised Gbegbaje’s contribution to the growth of the state.

Delta State Governor, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, at the retirement thanks-giving service of Gbegbaje, urged civil servants in the state to emulate his virtues.

Speaking at a grand reception in honour of the celebrant at the Events Centre, Asaba, Governor Oborevwori described Ogidi-Gbegbaje as an intelligent, humble, diligent, transparent, process driven, selfless, accountable and compassionate bureaucrat.

While congratulating the retired Permanent Secretary for his diligent and patriotic service to the state, Oborevwori said Ogidi-Gbegbaje was very helpful in the last seven months of his administration.

According to him, “a lot has been said about Sir Eddy Ogidi-Gbegbaje and I also have a personal experience about him while I was Speaker and in the last seven months as Governor of Delta State, we have worked very closely and he helped me to settle down quickly.

“Sir Ogidi-Gbegbaje played his role very well, he is diligent in his duties and was always giving good and useful advise wherever he worked.

“Your service to humanity is something worth emulating and I must say that I enjoyed working with you. I congratulate you for 35 years of unblemished and meritorious service to the government and people of Delta State.

“We are going to miss you, the civil service will miss you, the machinery of government will miss you, you are retired but you are not tired, and your service is still needed.

“I want other civil servants to emulate your commitment to duty. So my message to other civil servants is that they should emulate Edwin Ogidi-Gbegbaje.

“If you look at his journey in the civil service from Bendel to Delta, you see his commitment to duty. Today, he has finished strong and we rejoice with him and his family”.

Chairman of the occasion and former Minister of Information, Professor Sam Oyovbaire, congratulated the celebrant for a successful retirement from service and urged other civil servants to emulate his kind virtues and commitment to duty.

From all indications, Edwin Ogidi-Gbagbaje is worth celebrating, he has touched numerous lives in the last six decades.

At the cusp of his 60th anniversary, the social and the civil service landscapes pulse with milestones he has achieved thus reasserting his worth as a rare force of nature. As family and friends join him in celebrating his 60th birthday, the image that pops into head is that of his genius and the passionate intensity he possesses, literally squizing water from stone as far as the public service is concerned. His brilliant performance as a permanent secretary, Delta State Government House, has earned him another appointment. He is currently the Chairman, Delta State Bureau for Pension and has been giving a splendid account of himself.

“In All Life’s Hardships, Keep Your Smile” By Prudent Ludidi

Let’s talk about a powerful tool that can help you navigate life’s challenges with confidence, resilience, and hope. That tool is your smile.

Life can be tough. It can throw us curveballs, test our resolve, and push us to our limits. But in the midst of hardship, it’s easy to lose sight of what truly matters. We forget to smile, forget to laugh, and forget to live.

Your smile is more than just a facial expression. It’s a symbol of strength, courage, and determination. It’s a beacon of hope that shines brightly, even in the darkest moments.

When life gets tough, it’s tempting to frown, to cry, or to give up. But I urge you to do the opposite. Smile. Smile through the tears, smile through the pain, and smile through the struggles.

Smiling doesn’t mean you’re ignoring your problems or pretending everything is okay. It means you’re choosing to rise above, to find the silver lining, and to focus on the good.

Your smile has the power to transform your mindset, inspire others, diffuse tension, and heal emotional wounds. It’s a powerful antidote to stress, anxiety, and fear.

Think about it. When was the last time you smiled? Really smiled? Not just a polite smile or a forced grin, but a genuine, heartwarming smile?

Smiling can:

Reduce stress and anxiety
Boost your mood and energy
Improve your relationships
Increase your resilience

So, how can you keep your smile shining bright, even in the face of adversity?

Find the humor in difficult situations. Laughter is a powerful way to shift your perspective and lighten the load.

Practice gratitude daily. Focus on the good things in your life, no matter how small they may seem.

Surround yourself with positivity. Spend time with people who uplift and support you.

Take care of your physical and mental well-being. Get enough sleep, exercise regularly, and prioritize self-care.

Remember, your smile is contagious. It can light up a room, brighten someone’s day, and change the atmosphere.

In all life’s hardships, keep your smile. It’s a reminder that better days are ahead, that you’re stronger than you think, and that you’re not alone.

Your smile is your superpower. Use it to overcome obstacles, to uplift others, and to create a ripple effect of joy and positivity.

Don’t let life’s challenges steal your smile. Keep shining, keep smiling, and keep pushing forward.

You are stronger than you think.

You are braver than you feel.

And you are capable of overcoming anything that comes your way.

So, smile. Smile with confidence. Smile with courage. Smile with hope!
