Pastor Chris Oyakhilome DSc DSc DD Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost (Matthew 28:19). The words of Jesus in this verse are quite profound. He commands us to “teach all nations,” which means to make students of the nations, to disciple them, to instruct and train them in the ways of the Kingdom. This is a divine mandate. You’re a leader, assigned to reveal the righteousness of God and show the world how to live. You’re God’s champion, sent to change lives. Hallelujah! When you received the Holy Spirit, He made you a champion. Therefore, your life is meant to be impactful and full of divine exploits. You’re a hero of the Gospel, a living witness of God’s greatness. This is your moment for protagonism. Each day, for you, should be filled with testimonies that demonstrate the power of God that’s at work in you. That’s the life of a soul winner—a thrilling adventure of divine exploits that keeps heaven’s angels captivated. The Bible declares in 1 Corinthians 4:9, “…For we are made a spectacle unto the world, and to angels, and to men.” Think about that; you’re a marvel to the angels. 1 Peter 1:12 says they (the angels) are delighted and desire to look into these things. They’re watching you, observing your faith-filled actions, amazed at the demonstration of God’s power in your life. They marvel at the authority you exercise in Christ and the impact you make in your world. When you step out in faith, when you declare God’s Word, when you heal the sick, cast out devils, and, most importantly, when you lead someone to Christ, the angels are excited. Knowing this therefore, be purpose-driven. You’re on a divine stage, and the audience includes both men and angels. Live each day fulfilling God’s call on your life. PRAYERDear Father, I embrace my divine calling to live a life full of exploits and supernatural manifestations. Today is filled with testimonies that excite heaven. I’m a spectacle to the angels, demonstrating your power and righteousness to my world. Thank you for making my life a wonder and an inspiration, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Residents of Magodo Phase II Estate in Lagos State have filed an official petition to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, calling for immediate action to stop what they describe as unauthorized construction on a designated natural gorge within the estate. The petition, signed by Niyi Odusi, the Chairman of the Magodo Residents Association (MRA), expresses deep concern about the ongoing structural developments in the Green Valley Zone, also commonly referred to as “Oko Filling.” The community believes that these developments directly violate the Lagos State urban master plan, which classifies the area as environmentally critical. Environmental Importance of the Gorge The disputed land is not just empty terrain; residents emphasize that the gorge plays an essential ecological role. It is a natural water catchment area supported by rich vegetation and sandy formations, which help in stabilizing the estate’s surrounding elevated landscape. This ecosystem functions as a natural buffer against flooding, soil erosion, and landslides. Construction on this environmentally sensitive site, according to the MRA, poses an immediate and long-term risk to homes and infrastructure already built in compliance with city planning laws. “Developing this landlocked gorge may result in catastrophic outcomes like flooding, structural damage, and possibly deadly mudslides,” the residents said. Allegations Against Government Officials The residents further claim that despite the ecological concerns and legal zoning restrictions, some developers have moved forward with the backing of influential officials in the Lagos State Ministry of Physical Planning and Urban Development. They alleged that this unauthorized development is progressing under the radar, even though earlier attempts to build on this location were rightfully halted due to its environmental designation. “There is a growing perception that influential insiders are enabling developers to distort our natural landscape at the expense of lawful property owners and existing infrastructure,” the MRA wrote. Ignored Warnings and Growing Tensions Residents say they had submitted a formal complaint as far back as April 24, 2025, outlining the severe environmental and safety risks involved in the development. Despite this, authorities have allegedly failed to take any effective action. In what residents describe as an intimidation tactic, the developer recently led armed security personnel and government officials to demolish an alleged “illegal structure” on the disputed site. The MRA argues that this move is a cover-up to commence new construction disguised as a corrective operation. “This demolition is clearly a tactic to suppress resident protests and mute legitimate questions concerning this dangerous activity,” the association noted. They also reported that the demolition led to property damage and disruptions in the neighbourhood, further deepening anxiety among community members. Residents’ Demands to the State Government In their detailed petition to Governor Sanwo-Olu, the Magodo Phase II residents made the following urgent appeals:

Benue State Governor, Rev. Fr. Hyacinth Alia, has issued a firm directive against the recent acts of violence that led to the killing of two Igede youths along the Awajir-Oju road. According to verified security intelligence, the young victims were ambushed and fatally attacked while riding a motorcycle from the Oju axis. In a parallel incident, the Governor also condemned an assault on Nyifon community located in Mbaikyongo Ward, under the jurisdiction of Buruku Local Government Area (LGA). This violent act was reportedly triggered by a local disagreement involving a boat mishap, which subsequently escalated into a brutal attack allegedly executed by some youths from the Mbayaka community in Kusuv, also within Buruku LGA. “These violent events in separate LGAs are completely unacceptable and unjustifiable,” Governor Alia stated. “No person or group, no matter the grievance, has the moral or legal right to unleash violence or invade another community.” To address the escalating insecurity, Governor Alia has instructed security operatives to immediately coordinate with traditional rulers in the affected zones. He emphasized the need for swift and thorough intelligence operations, calling for a comprehensive security sweep of the volatile areas. In a decisive tone, the Governor gave a 48-hour ultimatum for the identification and arrest of all individuals responsible for these heinous acts, stressing that those found guilty must face the full weight of the law. “Benue is currently experiencing a phase of improved peace and security,” Governor Alia affirmed. “I will not condone any actions or elements trying to undermine our collective efforts to protect lives and foster harmony.” He reassured the public of his administration’s strong resolve to maintain law and order and urged all residents to remain calm, peaceful, and cooperative with security agencies during the course of the investigation.

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has issued a stern demand for Zamfara State Governor, Dauda Lawal, to step down from office if he is unable to combat the alarming security crisis troubling the state. This call was made public by Alhaji Kabiru Garba, the ADC Chairman in Zamfara State, during the ADC’s “Handshake Day” event held at Maryam Hall in Gusau, the state’s capital, on Monday. Garba voiced his intense dissatisfaction over the continuous surge in bandit-related violence across various communities within Zamfara. He emphatically declared that Governor Lawal has failed in his constitutional duty to safeguard the lives and property of citizens under his administration. “The Governor must provide a long-term, sustainable solution to the worsening insecurity plaguing the state. If he cannot achieve this, then the honorable thing is for him to resign,” Garba asserted. In addition to criticizing the state leadership, the ADC State Chairman also called on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to rise to the occasion and address the rapidly deteriorating national security challenges not only in Zamfara but also in other parts of Nigeria experiencing similar turmoil. As part of his suggestions, Garba proposed that the Zamfara State Government consider entering into dialogue with the bandits as a potential path to restoring peace and normalcy in the state. “We strongly condemn the ceaseless violence against our people and urge all arms of government to take meaningful and effective action. If engaging the bandits in dialogue is the path to peace, then so be it,” he recommended. The ADC leader went on to say that many residents of Zamfara are beginning to lose faith in the current administration’s capacity to bring peace, and are now viewing the ADC as a beacon of hope for the future. He revealed that the party has successfully registered over 75,000 new members in Zamfara alone and is confident that the number will exceed 100,000 before the 2027 general elections. “We have already registered not less than 75,000 new members, and the people of Zamfara are seeing a better future through the African Democratic Congress. By God’s grace, we are fully prepared to redeem both the state and Nigeria as a whole by the time 2027 comes,” Garba declared confidently.

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has strongly responded to recent criticisms from former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, following his stark warning that Nigeria’s fragile social fabric could disintegrate if President Bola Ahmed Tinubu secures a second term in the 2027 general elections. During an appearance at a recent event hosted by the African Democratic Congress (ADC) in Sokoto State, El-Rufai openly criticized the Tinubu-led administration, accusing it of lacking clear direction and vision for national progress. Reacting to these statements, Felix Morka, the National Publicity Secretary of the APC, issued a stinging rebuttal, branding El-Rufai as nothing more than “a political clown.” Morka further alleged that El-Rufai has been politically destabilized since being left out of President Tinubu’s ministerial nominations. “His rapid descent from national relevance to a mere political clown should be studied like a case of political regression,” Morka stated in a press release issued to media outlets. He did not mince words, accusing El-Rufai and his newfound ADC affiliates of contributing nothing meaningful to national political discourse. According to him, they only parade “bloated egos, exaggerated sense of entitlement, and insatiable personal ambition.” “El-Rufai and his co-travelers in the ADC are a perfect example of disorganized, directionless, and weak opposition—arguably the most confused our nation has ever witnessed,” Morka emphasized. In the statement, Morka challenged El-Rufai to provide viable and implementable alternatives to the policy decisions made by the Tinubu administration. He questioned their repeated criticism of the removal of fuel subsidies and monetary reforms without offering workable solutions. “If they so strongly oppose the reforms our administration has implemented, then let them demonstrate how they would restore fuel subsidies or strengthen the naira without plunging the economy into deeper turmoil,” he said. Morka concluded by expressing confidence in the APC’s political standing, asserting that the Nigerian people will continue to rally behind President Tinubu’s vision and are likely to renew his mandate come 2027. “The masses understand the depth of reforms being carried out, and they will once again stand behind our great party to ensure President Tinubu’s re-election,” Morka affirmed.

Renowned Nigerian music executive, Ubi Franklin, has shared reasons behind his decision to prevent female artistes signed to his label from getting pregnant during their contract period. Ubi Franklin, the founder of Made Men Music Group (Triple MG), openly addressed this policy during a recent episode of the Culture Sonic Podcast. The discussion centered around the unique difficulties of managing female talents in the music industry, particularly when it comes to navigating personal life choices like pregnancy. According to Franklin, pregnancy poses a significant interruption to the careers of female artistes, especially those who have not yet solidified their place in the industry. He expressed concern over the potential career setbacks such life events could cause to young and emerging acts still striving to gain recognition. The music label boss confirmed the presence of a “no pregnancy” clause included in the contractual agreements with his female signees. He stressed that this clause is not aimed at restricting motherhood indefinitely, but rather to ensure that female artistes focus on building a strong professional foundation before considering childbirth. “Just imagine you’ve invested heavily in a female artiste and then she gets pregnant. That’s the end of that trajectory because it’s extremely hard for her to recover her career,” Franklin explained during the interview. He went further to state that it is rare for newly emerging female artistes who become pregnant to bounce back to the limelight, emphasizing that the journey back into the industry after childbirth can be overwhelming without an already established career. “I’m not saying they shouldn’t have kids,” he clarified, “but first, build a stable and visible career. That’s why whenever I’m signing a female artiste, I ensure a clause is added—they must not get pregnant throughout the duration of the contract.” Franklin’s stance, while controversial, opens broader conversations around the challenges of balancing personal choices and career ambitions, particularly for women in the Nigerian music industry. His comments may spark debates on whether such contract restrictions empower or limit female artistes.

Popular Nigerian musician Made Kuti has revealed a deeply personal and emotional truth about his legendary grandfather, Fela Anikulapo Kuti, asserting that the iconic Afrobeat creator died in financial hardship. In a heartfelt conversation on a recent episode of the “Tea With Tay” podcast, hosted by Nollywood actor Taymesan, Made Kuti opened up about the late music icon’s financial condition before his death. He stated that despite earning substantial income from his global music career, Fela died broke due to his immense generosity and selfless lifestyle. “He was financially down. Fela died poor,” Made Kuti affirmed. “He earned money that could have purchased an entire street. But after returning from shows at Kalakuta, he would bring out boxes filled with cash and simply announce that anyone in need could come and collect. It didn’t matter who you were — his home was open to all. People from the neighborhood could freely walk into Fela’s house. He operated an open-door policy where everyone was welcome anytime, day or night.” This level of generosity, according to Made, was not limited to outsiders alone. Fela’s philosophy of equality and communal living extended even to his family. Made revealed that Fela never allowed his children to refer to him as “father” or “dad”, as he didn’t want them to receive any form of preferential treatment in Kalakuta Republic — the self-proclaimed commune he created in Lagos. “All individuals were equal in Kalakuta. No special recognition. No titles. No hierarchy. That was how he lived and raised us,” Made explained. Further emphasizing the late legend’s legacy, Made Kuti highlighted that Fela received far greater appreciation and recognition from the international community than from Nigerians themselves during his lifetime. While he was celebrated abroad as a musical revolutionary and political activist, his impact was often underappreciated at home. It is worth noting that Fela Anikulapo Kuti passed away on August 2, 1997, at the age of 58, leaving behind a powerful legacy of activism, music, and social commentary. His works continue to inspire new generations globally, even as personal stories like these paint a more intimate picture of his complex life.

In a dramatic twist on Monday night, 27 out of 29 housemates in the Big Brother Naija Season 10 reality show were placed on the chopping block for potential eviction scheduled for Sunday. This unexpected turn of events was triggered by a surprise task issued by Big Brother (popularly known as Biggie), throwing the house into tension and suspense. The task required housemates to locate a hidden envelope within a tight 10-minute window, a challenge that demanded both speed and intuition. However, Victory, who had recently clinched the Head of House (HOH) title, was granted exemption from the envelope search, giving him an immediate edge in the week’s gameplay. As the countdown ended and housemates opened the envelopes they managed to find, they were greeted with a blunt message:“Better luck next time.” None of the envelopes turned out to be the winning one. Biggie then delivered the shocking verdict: “You all failed to find the right envelope. This means the whole house is automatically nominated for possible eviction.” This declaration threw the entire house into uncertainty, as every contestant—except Victory—was now in danger of eviction. However, the twist wasn’t over yet. Biggie handed Victory a chance to change someone’s fate. From a tree adorned with tickets, he was asked to select one. The chosen ticket bore a game-changing message:“Save only one.” After a reflective pause and visible tension, Victory made his decision. He chose Kayikunmi, granting her immunity alongside himself. With that, only Victory and Kayikunmi are officially safe this week, while the remaining 27 housemates brace themselves for the public vote and possible exit from the show.

In a bold move to outpace Premier League rivals, Newcastle United have intensified their efforts to sign RB Leipzig’s talented striker, Benjamin Sesko, by submitting a significantly improved offer. The club is now actively seeking to hijack the Benjamin Sesko transfer deal from Manchester United, showcasing their aggressive approach to strengthening their attacking lineup for the upcoming season. As per a report from Sky Germany, Newcastle’s latest proposal includes a fixed fee of €80 million (£69.7 million) along with additional performance-related bonuses. This marks a substantial increase from their initial package, which was structured as £65.3 million plus £4.36 million in add-ons, totaling approximately €75 million with an extra €5 million in potential bonuses. This development comes amid a reshuffling in Newcastle’s striking department, following the departure of Callum Wilson, who exited the club at the expiration of his contract. Furthermore, uncertainty looms over the future of their current star forward, Alexander Isak, who is reportedly on Liverpool’s radar. The Premier League champions have already submitted a bid for Isak, although it was turned down, fueling speculation of another approach. Meanwhile, Manchester United are firmly in contention for Sesko’s signature and are actively involved in negotiations with RB Leipzig. The Red Devils are believed to be focusing on the structural terms of a potential deal, hoping to secure a long-term solution for their attacking needs. Despite the rising interest, Benjamin Sesko has yet to finalize his decision on which English club to join. Earlier in the transfer window, a potential move to Arsenal collapsed, leaving the door open for both Newcastle and Manchester United to capitalize. The Slovenian international striker is seen as one of the most promising young forwards in Europe, and this transfer tug-of-war between Premier League giants underscores the high stakes involved in securing top talent.

Former United States international and ex-Everton goalkeeper, Tim Howard, has shared his thoughts on which teams are most likely to compete for and possibly win the Premier League title in the forthcoming season. According to Howard, the leading contenders include Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, and Manchester City—four clubs with strong squads, tactical depth, and renewed ambitions. Arsenal, under manager Mikel Arteta, have consistently come close to ending their league title drought. The North London side has now finished second in each of the last three Premier League seasons, signaling a steady upward trajectory. The Gunners are desperate to lift the Premier League trophy again, something they haven’t done since their invincible 2003/2004 campaign, and their summer business has shown they mean serious title-challenging intent. Chelsea, although experiencing some instability in recent campaigns, are also being strongly considered. The West London club recently added to their accolades by winning the FIFA Club World Cup, which has given their squad a morale boost. With new additions and a renewed sense of purpose, the Blues are poised to be formidable challengers as they aim to climb back to the top of English football. Meanwhile, Liverpool—last season’s defending champions—are not to be overlooked. The Reds have made crucial signings to strengthen their squad, enhancing both depth and quality. With Jürgen Klopp still at the helm and fresh talent brought in, Liverpool fans can be optimistic about another serious run at the title. As for Manchester City, the perennial powerhouses under the stewardship of Pep Guardiola, they remain a major force despite having relinquished the title last season. City had previously dominated the Premier League by winning the trophy four consecutive times, setting new standards of consistency and excellence. Even though they stumbled in the last campaign, Howard believes they should not be ruled out. In an interview with Sky Sports, Tim Howard confidently stated: “Liverpool, for me, are the frontrunners.They’ve made incredible signings. They’re going to start the season flying, I know it.[But] I can’t bet against Pep Guardiola. They’ve only had one bad season under him. They could come good.” He further acknowledged the impressive transfer strategy of Arsenal, particularly highlighting their acquisition of a new striker: “Arsenal have done amazing business [too] – they got their No.9 (Viktor Gyökeres) so they could really challenge.” Howard’s analysis shows that the race for the Premier League crown in the upcoming season is expected to be intensely competitive, with at least four top clubs capable of clinching it. Football fans across the world eagerly await kickoff, as each of these clubs will look to prove themselves worthy of England’s most prestigious football title.
