SCOAN CELEBRATES GOD’S FAITHFULNESS WITH GLOBAL THANKSGIVING SERVICE.

BY DARE ADEJUMO

 

This Sunday, December 8, SCOAN at its Ikotun-Egbe Lagos headquarters will roll out drums in ecclesiastical soul inspiring songs and praises to express gratitude to God for His FAITHFULNESS as the rock upon which the church was founded..
The celebration which is the third of its kind is not only going to hold in Lagos but also across the nations and continents where members and Emmanuel TV Partners will gather respectively to rejoice too in the Lord.
SCOAN has many reasons to celebrate. The church like other churches in the country was closed down by the government for a long time during the Coovid-19 pandemic. Even when all churches nationwide were later authorized to open, SCOAN still closed its doors obviously because of the thirsty crowd for Synagogue Church of All Nations SCOAN from several countries who were all scrambling to come to Nigeria. If allowed at such a time when the world was not totally out of the woods of Covid-19 miasma it could generate unholy brouhaha which the Man of God Prophet TBJOSHUA would not want. In God’s wisdom he simply diffused the pressure by saying: “I will not reopen the church until I hear from God”. Yes it was clearly not suitable to open at the time because of these massive foreign visitors looking at the genesis of the rampaging pandemic that killed several millions of people worldwide.
The greater devastation that jolted the entire world suddenly happened! The God’s General, the enigmatic spiritual giant who bestrode the world like a colossus by bringing Jesus Christ in action to the doorsteps of the world like early apostles and his uncommon love for humanity that touched and blessed the lives of millions all over the world suddenly passed on; just shortly after conducting a symbolic “parting” worship at his prayer mountain where he had been meeting with worshippers in batches since the nationwide reopening of the churches.
That was indeed a big storm; the unfathomable spiritual earthquake that be-clouded the world and the church’s firmament. Many, who were being ruled by flesh and those of the dark world to which Joshua was a puzzle and thorn in their flesh by the radiant light of God in him which put their satanic powers and kingdom on their knees with the name of Jesus Christ had ignorantly concluded that the end of SCOAN had finally come not knowing that greater is He in the SCOAN than he that is in the world. Satan and its agents tried to territize the church, but the church could not cowed.
But God would never forsake His own. The grace, wisdom, power and love of God whose adamantine will remain inscrutable paved the way for the leadership mantle of SCOAN like that of Elijah to Elisha to fall upon Evelyn Joshua.
Pastor Evelyn Joshua without mincing words is a woman of virtues, one in a million. The quintessential womanhood, who had quietly gone through the spiritual mills, was well equipped and fortified for the new roles beyond human imagination. The life of Evelyn Joshua today shows clearly that TBJOSHUA never made a mistake in her choice as wife by their conjugal life as he was led by the Holy Spirit to marry her.
That God was the foundation of the church, that God is ever with the church and His grace would for ever be sufficient for His chosen ones is today very palpable and gratifying in the joyful activities and flow of anointing from His throne of grace with the presence of the Holy Spirit in the dumbfounding demonstration of God’s power, blessings, healing and miracles whenever and wherever Pastor Evelyn Joshua chooses to worship, evangelise or hold a crusade as led by the Holy Spirit. A woman of propulsive energy, unassuming, firm, calm, intelligent, and loving, Evelyn Joshua has no eyes for frivolous or wanton desires. She is spiritually endowed and full of joyful activities. With time, people that have not discovered will see very clearly that TBJOSHUA is in Evelyn Joshua.
This is the secret of the joy of members and Emmanuel TV Partners world wide today as the church is increasing daily with several countries requesting for a crusade in their respective domains!
The celebration is bound to be colourful with the members enthusiasm to praise God in their respective best appearances in honor of God.
“We are overwhelmed with gratitude for all that God has done for The Synagogue Church Of All Nations SCOAN” said the Woman of God, Evelyn Joshua. “His faithfulness has brought healing to our bodies, deliverance to our souls, blessings to our lives and salvation to our spirits. He has preserved and multiplied our families including several open doors of breakthrough. We are therefore celebrating His unfailing goodness” she added.
In the last three years when the church reopened a lot of giant strides had taken place under Evelyn Joshua. Some of these, just to mention a few are::
The Akure branch that had remained in comatose was joyfully rebranded and opened for members and public who are till today in high spirit.. ⁠Crusades, partners meetings and charity works were held in Ghana South Africa, Zambia, Spain, Kenya, and Argentina. There have been massive charity works in different parts of Nigeria, Anointing Water was distributed to Partners with Charity works in different countries; Regular meetings with the elderly people with welfare packages for them;; berthing of Women of Grace Conference which was initiated by Evelyn Joshua towards the reawakening of womenfolk for true womanhood in Creation; International Youth Conference for the purpose of achieving greater and peaceful future for our world has been planted. Evelyn Joshua believes that both the government and the society must not fail in proper moulding of the youth.
The thanksgiving service will be preceded on Friday with “healing and deliverance service”. Like the “Living Water Service” of the church, the Friday service is a dedicated and unique one that will draw crowds from different parts of the country and beyond.
One of the major landmarks in SCOAN is Pastor Joshua’s unquenchable yearning and her uncompromising stand for a sound spiritual life for members. Each group in the church is today made to regularly spend time with God on TBJOSHUA Mountain where both in spirit and knowledge including prayer lives of participants are greatly enriched. She has also tenaciously upheld the lofty legacies of her late husband for which he lived and died for.

Without doubt, SCOAN is a mystery. It is a tree planted in the riverside by God. It is hound to bring out its fruits in the seasons and its leaves shall never wither. As the gate of hell cannot prevail against it because of Christ, the church of God is joyfully waxing stronger day by day.

Sexual Allegations: Dr. Chris Okafor’s Image Remains Unblemished

Sexual Allegations: Dr. Chris Okafor’s Image Remains Unblemished ...Doris Ogala’s Attempts Have Failed, and Will Continue to Fail By Christopher David

Sexual Allegations: Dr. Chris Okafor’s Image Remains Unblemished

…Doris Ogala’s Attempts Have Failed, and Will Continue to Fail

By Christopher David

For some times now I have been contemplating the sexual allegations made by Doris Ogala against Dr Chris Okafor, a Man of God from the Mountain of Liberation and Miracle Ministry, also known as Liberation City. This is an allegation that continues to elicit heated debates in Nigeria’s media landscape, with social media platforms being a major hub for these discussions. The media frenzy has raised substantial dust, resulting in confusion about the direction of our society. Without a doubt, the media has devoted considerable attention to Doris, an actress whose fame had waned.

However, much more is required to bring the entire situation to a logical conclusion. For various reasons, I have refrained from responding to alleviate the already damaging media frenzy that could exacerbate Doris Ogala’s false and malicious allegations against the anointed man of God

To say the least, it is equally important to educate the public, church members, and online followers, thereby preventing Doris’s numerous false statements from tarnishing the reputation of the man of God. It is currently unnecessary to recount the numerous false statements made by Doris, who has been utilizing her social media platform to make spurious claims against Dr. Chris Okafor, a respected spiritual leader, by falsely alleging to have had a sexual relationship with him, despite the fact that a substantial amount of information has already been made public on this topic; nonetheless, the truth must ultimately be revealed.

Let’s examine the allegation in question. The actress in question claims to have had a sexual encounter with the religious leader, but where exactly did this occur? Was it at his residence, which is consistently staffed by over 15 domestic workers and security personnel, or did it happen in a hotel room? How credible is this assertion?. Throughout my brief life experience, I have developed an understanding of the considerable obstacles that must be overcome to gain entry into this respected man of God’s inner sanctum, or even to cultivate intimate connections or relationships, which are exclusively permissible within the bounds of matrimony

Does it not defy sound judgment that a ‘Jezebel’ known as Doris Ogala previously found to have deceived other men of God would engage in a sexual relationship with Dr. Chris Okafor and display no apparent guilt, addressing him as “My father in the Lord” while worship in his church some years back. Indeed, I lack the requisite grammatical proficiency to substantiate the alleged sexual intercourse that this lady claimed and ranted about on her social media page; rather, I regard it as a malicious allegation, completely unfounded and emanating from a deceitful and evil-minded source, as manifest in the incoherence of such allegations.

I do not intend to diminish the value of social media, particularly its potential to reach a broad audience; however, many Nigerians engage with social media content on an emotional and sentimental level. Platforms such as Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, etc., do not function as courts of law; hence, grievances must be addressed through the appropriate legal channels, encompassing both criminal and civil proceedings.

The degradation of individuals, organisations, homes, governments and institutions on social media is a worrisome trend. Some social media crusaders exploit this phenomenon as a publicity stunt. Additionally, does Doris Ogala possess evidence to corroborate the purported sexual allegation? This, in most cases, remains obscure to the general public

Regarding Delilah and the satanic angel Doris and her accomplices, reports emerged that Doris made claims on social media last year about Dr. Chris Okafor owing her money. According to her, the money was given to her by an unidentified individual through him. However, a prompt response questioned the logic of an unnamed individual choosing to pay for her services through Pastor Chris, rather than directly to her. This exchange has sparked allegations of dishonesty against Doris Ogala, an actress whose career has experienced a decline. Does Doris realize she may be being manipulated as a social media stooge? Where are her online supporters, who are supposed to be cheering her on and providing encouragement on social media?

I guess the infamous actress is totally broke and out of her mind, thinking she can use the same tricks used on some men of God in the past to extort Dr. Chris Okafor, fondly called the ‘Oracle’. Guess Doris might have forgotten Dr. Chris Okafor’s petition and the ongoing court case against her, which is still before the honorable Court of law?

If I may inquire, have her Instagram and Facebook followers taken her seriously again, given the numerous unsubstantiated claims?. I would advise against aligning oneself with individuals who refer to Doris’ recent allegation as a challenge to the Church, although it may appear that way. However, it seems that Doris is navigating a precarious path. The onus is on her to promptly rectify the situation, as her actions have been widely criticized by supporters of Liberation City, both in Nigeria and globally. Doris Ogala’s recent allegations have left many speechless, wondering if she was intentionally trying to tarnish the reputation of the great prophet of God

As she transitioned from “Okafor owes me a huge amount and I’m ready to collect my money” to “we had sexual intercourse together”, it appears she may require medical attention because nobody in their right mind would continue to fabricate lies in a similar manner, showing reasons why she was separated from her marriage due to childlessness four years ago with her Igbo partner.

In conclusion, Doris Ogala appears to necessitate professional intervention, as it seems she may be experiencing memory loss or repercussions from past conflicts. I doubt whether Doris Ogala can circumvent consequences this time, no as her actions may have serious repercussions.

Watch for part 2, which will reveal men of God against whom she has previously made false accusations.
Church members submit anonymous writings against the evil plotter lady known as Doris Ogala.

Again! Fuji Star, Saheed Osupa Prevents Portable Re-Arrest in Kwara On New Petition (See Full Details)

Nigeria fuji icon, Saheed Akorede popularly known as Osupa, on Tuesday prevented the re-arrest of Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable after another petition surfaced against him.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that legendary Fuji musician discontinued his case against Portable on Tuesday following an appeal by prominent Nigerians to settle the matter out of court.

 

In a new development, Mr Yemi George, Managing Director of Starwood Hotels Ilorin, told NAN on Tuesday that Osupa prevailed on him not to re-arrest Portable after collecting the sum of N6.3m for a show that he did not perform.

Again! Fuji Star, Saheed Osupa Prevents Portable Re-Arrest in Kwara On New Petition (See Full Details)
“I have obtained every necessary documents to re-arrest him today in order to refund my money but out of respect for the legendary fuji musician (Osupa) , he prevailed on me not to.

“My company, Starwood Hotels O2 Arena in collaboration with the leadership of the Theatre Arts and Motion Pictures Practitioners Association of Nigeria (TAMPAN) put an event together for Portable to perform but he never did” George said.

According to a document obtained by NAN, titled Petition for fraudulent and obtaining by false pretense the sum of N6.3m, the petitioners said they entered agreement with Portable on July 22, 2024, which he never respected.

According to the petition, Portable was paid N6.3m to perform at the ‘Kwara Tampan Fiesta’ on September 29, 2024, but failed to appear on stage at the agreed-upon time.

Despite arriving over 16 hours late, he allegedly sneaked out of his hotel lodging without fulfilling his promise to perform.

The petitioners claim that Portable’s actions caused significant financial loss and distress, and they are seeking a thorough investigation, prosecution, and restitution of the N6,300,000 allegedly obtained through fraudulent means.

The petition was signed by Chief Olu Amusan, Governor, TAMPAN and Ayodele Demokun on behalf of Starwogd Hotels 02 Arena

NAN recalls that the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) of Kwara command, Adetoun Ejire-Adeyemi, had in a statement on Sunday confirmed the arrest of Portable following a petition received from Osupa.

The petition borders on serious allegations which includes criminal defamation, threat to life, incitement, character assassination, conduct likely to cause a breach of peace and the use of abusive and insulting words.

H.E. Tukur Yusufu Buratai: A Comprehensive Profile from Deepseek

Opinion/Letter to the Editor

H.E. Tukur Yusufu Buratai: A Comprehensive Profile from Deepseek

 

Out of sheer curiosity and a desire to delve deeper into the intricacies of Nigeria’s military history, yesterday I decided to engage with the AI application known as Deepseek, posing a question about what it knows concerning Nigeria’s former Chief of Army Staff, General Tukur Yusufu Buratai. My intention was not only to test the depth of the intelligence capabilities of this innovative AI tool but also to acquire a neutral and unbiased report or profile of the former general—something that would be entirely devoid of any flattery or vindictive vilification of his character. What I received from Deepseek as feedback was a detailed and well-structured overview that encapsulated General Buratai’s significant military career.

 

General Tukur Yusufu Buratai, who served as Nigeria’s Chief of Army Staff (COAS) from 2015 to 2021, is widely recognized for his transformative leadership and significant contributions to the Nigerian Army. Below is a synthesis of his key achievements, supported by context from the provided search results:

H.E. Tukur Yusufu Buratai: A Comprehensive Profile from Deepseek

1. Counterinsurgency and National Security

 

Buratai spearheaded Nigeria’s fight against Boko Haram and ISWAP, drastically reducing their territorial control. Under his command:

 

– 75% reduction in attacks within five months of his appointment (2015), and a 90% decline in suicide bombings by 2017.

 

– He introduced innovative military strategies, such as the Super Camp Maneuver Concept and Mobile Strike Teams, which disrupted terrorist operations.

 

– The northeast became safer, enabling the 2019 general elections to proceed peacefully in previously insecure regions.

 

2. Institutional Reforms and Training

 

Buratai prioritized professionalism and capacity-building:

 

– Established the Nigerian Army Resource Centre (NARC) to address strategic defense gaps and foster research.

 

– Revived training exercises like Python Dance, Crocodile Smile, and Ayam Akpatuma, enhancing troops’ readiness for internal security operations.

 

– Expanded foreign training opportunities for officers and soldiers, improving Nigeria’s competitiveness in international military engagements.

 

3. Infrastructure and Welfare Development

 

His tenure saw unprecedented infrastructural growth:

 

– Founded Nigerian Army University, Biu (NAUB), Africa’s first Army university, focusing on technological and military education. The institution expanded rapidly, with 75% of admissions reserved for civilians.

 

– Upgraded barracks, hospitals (e.g., Level 4 facilities), and housing projects nationwide, significantly boosting troop morale.

 

– Launched initiatives like Army Farms and Ranches and Barracks Investment Programme to improve soldiers’ welfare and self-sufficiency.

 

4. Technological and Operational Innovations

 

Buratai modernized the Army’s capabilities:

 

– Created the Nigerian Army Cyber Warfare Command to combat digital threats.

 

– Commissioned indigenous Mine-Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) vehicles, reducing reliance on foreign equipment.

 

– Established specialized units like the Motorcycle Battalion and Special Forces Command for terrain-specific operations.

 

5. Leadership and Diplomacy

 

– Personal involvement in combat: Buratai frequently led troops on frontline missions, such as the 2020 Limankara hills operation, inspiring soldiers.

 

– Post-retirement, he served as Nigeria’s Ambassador to Benin Republic, strengthening bilateral ties and curbing cross-border crime.

 

– Promoted physical fitness within the Army, instituting policies like the Body Mass Index standard and completing a 60km run at age 60 to set an example.

 

6. Awards and Legacy

 

Buratai received numerous honors, including:

 

– Commander of the Order of the Federal Republic (CFR).

 

– Traditional titles like Betara of Biu Emirate and Jagunmolu of Saki Land.

 

– A Doctor of Letters (DLitt) honoris causa from NAUB.

 

Conclusion

 

General Buratai’s tenure reshaped the Nigerian Army into a more professional, technologically adept, and responsive institution. His legacy spans counterterrorism victories, educational advancements, and infrastructural development, earning him recognition as one of Nigeria’s most impactful military leaders.

 

For further details, refer to the cited sources.

As I wrote earlier, the information provided above is sourced from Deepseek, and it is a raw, unedited account of the current state of affairs. I firmly believe that it is crucial for Nigerians to learn the importance of acknowledging and commending leaders who are performing well or making significant positive contributions to the country, rather than indulging in the spreading of falsehoods, rumors, and smear campaigns simply because certain insecure individuals feel threatened by the rising prominence of others. This tendency to “kill their prophets” is detrimental to our collective progress.

 

For instance, take a closer look at the troubling situation in the North-East today; observe the morale of the troops, the quality of their training and kitting, and the overall leadership structure. Unfortunately, the situation has deteriorated significantly. During his tenure as Chief of Army Staff, General Buratai demonstrated an unwavering commitment to safeguarding Nigeria, even placing his own life on the line and facing numerous life-threatening situations.

 

In stark contrast, we now witness a disheartening trend where current commanders seem reluctant to lead from the front lines. The theaters of war in both the North-East and North-West regions have ceased to serve as bastions of operational strength or secondary offices for the Service Chiefs. I am aware of several nearby villages to Maiduguri Metropolitan Council (MMC) that are under constant threat, with terrorists freely roaming about and yet, tragically, no one appears ready or willing to confront them. It is no surprise that our great nation is currently in a state of turmoil and unrest.

 

Securing a complex and diverse society like Nigeria is not a task for the faint of heart; it requires immense dedication, strategic planning, and REAL HARD WORK. I strongly believe that we must address these challenges head-on, with a united front and a renewed sense of purpose, if we are to restore peace and stability to our beloved country.

MS Abubakar writes from Maiduguri
