Primate Elijah Ayodele, the leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, has alleged that the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, has been chosen by God for a particular purpose. Election: "Atiku has been given an assignment from God" — Primate Ayodele reveals prophecy The clergyman stated that Atiku’s assignment was to govern Nigeria for only one term if he emerges victorious. In a statement released by his media aide, Oluwatosin Osho, Ayodele listed some of the tasks to include restructuring, improving the education sector, lowering petrol prices, and reviving the economy. He cautioned Atiku against disregarding the divine policies if he does not want to experience God’s anger. While stating that his statement is not an endorsement or campaign for Atiku, the primate emphasized that the people’s votes would determine the election’s outcome. Election: "Atiku has been given an assignment from God" — Primate Ayodele reveals prophecy However, he warned that if Atiku does not emerge victorious, Nigerians will suffer more than they have in past administrations. “Among these three candidates, Atiku has been given an assignment from God to fix the nation within four years. If God gives Atiku victory in this election, he is to use only four years for this special assignment. If he wins and refuses to do the will of God for the people, he will see the wrath of God. “He will not complete his term because God’s anger will be placed on him. His assignment is to form an all-inclusive government, take care of security within six months, restructure before his term ends, reduce petroleum prices, fix the education sector, and revive the economy. “He must not start selling Nigeria’s property to his friends and if he does, he will see God’s anger. If God helps him to get there and he neglects all these policies, God’s wrath will be kindled against him. “I am not saying Atiku will win the election, it’s only the people’s vote that can determine that but I am only saying what God sent me to say to Nigerians; Atiku has an assignment placed into his hands by God to fix the nation within four years. It’s your choice to vote for him or not but if he doesn’t emerge, the person that wins will only add to the yoke of Nigerians as it is written in 1king 12vs14. The people will suffer more than they have ever suffered in the past administrations.” “Atiku, the Lord said I should tell you that if you win, you must not spend beyond four years or else you will see the anger of God. You must do an all-inclusive government, restructuring, security, health and everything to put Nigeria in order. If you don’t do these, God will be angry with you.”

"Homosexuality is not a crime; we are all children of God" — Pope Francis

The head of the Catholic Church, Pope Francis, argues that homosexuality is not a crime in the face of the law but only in sin in the church.

The revered priest made this known at an interview with The Associated Press on Wednesday, January 25. The Pope emphasized the love God has for all his children while calling on Catholic bishops who support the laws to welcome LGBTQ people into the church. “Being homos£xual isn’t a crime; Yes, but it’s a sin. Fine, but first let’s distinguish between a sin and a crime. It’s also a sin to lack charity with one another,” Pope Francis stated.

Speaking further on the discrimination against the LGBTQ community, Pope Francis encouraged bishops to embrace tenderness for the rainbow people. “These bishops have to have a process of conversion, tenderness, please, as God has for each one of us. We are all children of God, and God loves us as we are and for the strength that each of us fights for our dignity,” he added.

You want to hear God but listening to Asake- Dunsin Oyekan shakes table

Gospel musician Dunsin Oyekan has shaken some tables at those who have been listening to secular music but still want to hear from God.

In the video sighted online, Dunsin Oyekan was heard telling the gathered congregation that those people are confused because they won’t hear from God. According to Dunsin Oyekan, some people share on their platforms the songs of secular artists while they skip songs of gospel musicians who will help them hear from God with confidence. He disclosed that some Christian post these songs on their page with the caption “unapologetically a child of God.” “At the end of the year, when people were tagging some of us for their Spotify, and Apple reviews for the year, and the people they listen to, you will see one secular musician. And then you will see Nathaniel Bassey. I’d say what is he doing there? Your confidence baffles me, how will you hear God, you are living in a confused state. Someone is telling you as it is with the world, and another is telling you how it is with God, which one do you want to pick? Nathaniel Bassey does it for me but you just played brother Asake. And you are bold to share it online. Sometimes I look at their profile some of them will write unapologetically a child of God.”
