Amidst Adulterous SCANDALS, Apostle Suleiman Visits Pastor Adeboye ...What He Did Will Shock You, See Photos
News Proof 11.4.17 No comments Edit Post
Apostle Johnson Suleman, the founder of Omega Fire Ministries, was at the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) where he paid honor to Pastor E.A. Adeboye, the general overseer of the church, and his wife.
Apostle Suleman knelt down to greet his spiritual mother, Mrs F.A Adeboye as he tapped into their anointing. The photos that emerged from the visitation show that Apostle Suleman had a one-on-one meeting with Daddy G.O even though the topic of their discussion was not known.
It was gathered that the visit was made amidst the turbulence caused by the extra-marital affair the man of God was said to have had with his Stephanie Otobo, his alleged lover.
The alleged lover who is hell bent on pulling down the pillars of Apostle Suleman’s ministry recently released a bank statement showing the man of God made a deposit into her account. This was done to solidify her claims on the relationship she had with the Apostle. To further erase the doubts that may still be lingering in some people's hearts, she has freshly released screenshots of their bbm chats.
However, activities have not stopped in Omega Fire Ministries as a female pastor of the church was spotted holding a cane during a ministration at their branch in New York. The cane was held in hand to ‘whip the devil’.

THE UNTOLD: SACKED FRCN Boss, Obazee Was A Zonal Pastor At Redeemed Earlier SUSPENDED By The Church
News Proof 10.1.17 No comments Edit Post
Latest Nigeria News - Executive Secretary of the Financial Regulatory Council of Nigeria, Jim Obazee, that was sacked yesterday is a Zonal Pastor of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, a competent source within the church inner circle has revealed.
The source told LatestNigeriaNews.com.ng that it was evident that Pastor Enoch Adeboye may have made the decision to retire due to internal pressures which may have been battling his continued stay as General Overseer of the church reputed to be one of the largest in Nigeria.
The source said: “Do you know that the man the president sacked is a zonal pastor in the Redeemed Christian Church of God? So, it is evident that there were already internal pressures on our General Overseer. So he may have taken the decision for peace to reign”.
The source, who expressed happiness at the sack of the FRCN boss for attempting to fight the church of God further said that the battle was fought by God through President Muhammdu Buhari who threw him from office and immediately appointed a replacement.
It was further gathered that following the nasty actions of Jim Obazee, authorities of the church had placed him on four years suspension, consequently the source said: “I just learnt that he is no longer with us. He has been suspended for four years. You can now see the reason behind his action”.
We learnt that for a senior pastor in his category to have been suspended from the church, the church must have interpreted his action as contempt against the authority of the church.
When probed further to say what did Pastor Adeboye do to merit such treatment from Obazee, she said: “Those who persecuted Jesus Christ and apostles of old, did they do them anything? He could as well be an agent of darkness in the church of God”.
BREAKING: Buhari Suspends The Anti-Christian Law That Forced Adeboye' Resignation, The Law Actually Enacted By Jonathan's Admin, Why Obazee Actually SACKED
News Proof 10.1.17 No comments Edit Post
The Federal Government, on Monday, suspended the controversial Corporate Governance Code, which was issued on October 17 by the FRC, News Punch understands
News Punch has gathered that the controversial law was actually enacted during the administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan, but was not implemented.
The suspension was disclosed in a statement by the Minister of Industry, Trade and Investment, Mr. Okechuckwu Enelamah
In the five-paragraph statement by the minister’s Strategic Communication Adviser, Constance Ikokwu, he said the code was suspended in order to carry out a detailed review of its application.
Pastor Enoch Adeboye of the Redeemed Christian Church of God had, on Saturday, stepped down as the overseer of the church in Nigeria in accordance with the governance code of the FRC.
Adeboye, who made the announcement during the church’s annual ministers thanksgiving service, at the Redemption Camp in the Mowe area of Ogun State, said the new regulation would affect clergymen, including Bishop David Oyedepo of the Living Faith Church Worldwide International, aka Winners Chapel; Pastor W. F. Kumuyi of the Deeper Christian Life Ministry and Bishop Mike Okonkwo of The Redeemed Evangelical Mission.
The review, according to the statement, would now involve extensive consultations with stakeholders upon the reconstitution of the board of the FRC.
The statement states, “The Corporate Governance Code issued by the Financial Reporting Council of Nigeria has been suspended, pending a detailed review, extensive consultation with stakeholders and reconstitution of the board of the FRC.
“Government remains committed to restoring and enhancing market confidence and improving the ease of doing business in Nigeria.’’
The FRC is one of the parastatals under the supervision of the Ministry of Industry, Trade and Investment and it is responsible for setting and promoting compliance with standards for accounting, financial reporting and auditing in Nigeria.
Why Obazee Was Sacked
Fresh facts according to Punch Newspaper have emerged on Monday why President Muhammadu Buhari sacked the Executive Secretary of the Financial Regulatory Council of Nigeria, Mr. Jim Obazee, in connection with the implementation of the controversial corporate Governance Code 2016.
It further gathered according to Punch Newspaper on Monday that Obazee was sacked for disobeying a directive of the Minister of Industry, Trade and Investment, Mr. Okechuckwu Enelamah, that the implementation of the regulation should be suspended.
Among others, the code stipulates 20-year tenure for heads of religious groups and civil rights organisations.
The minister had, on October 17, 2016, written the FRC boss, directing him to suspend the operation of the controversial regulation, which the Christian Association of Nigeria alleged was targeted at weakening the church.
According to the report, Obazee refused to suspend the regulation because there was no gazette backing the suspension of the regulation.
Enelamah had earlier recommended to Buhari that the implementation of the regulation be suspended.
A top government official, who spoke with one of our correspondents on condition of anonymity, said the President approved Enelamah’s recommendation and the minister thereafter conveyed the decision to Obazee.
The source said, “Since the minister had conveyed the President’s approval that the implementation should be suspended, it was taken for granted that it had been suspended.
“Surprisingly, the Presidency received a report that during the Christmas period, Obazee hosted chief executives of some quoted companies to a dinner.
“It was at that dinner that he reportedly told his guests that the law had taken effect and would be implemented.
“The report got to the government and the President was angry about it.”
The President of the National Council of The Nigerian Stock Exchange, Mr. Aigboje Aig-Imoukhuede, was said to have led the chief executives of companies to the dinner.
Another source, who confirmed the development, said Buhari sacked Obazee and dissolved the board of the FRC on Monday based on the recommendation of Enelamah.
A top source in the Presidency, who confided in The PUNCH on Monday, stated that Obazee was sacked because he defied the directive of the minister.
“The President was irked by the fact that the FRC disobeyed the directive of the minister that the regulation should be suspended,” the source stated.
Another source added that the Presidency found it curious that a regulation, which the Council could not implement during former President Goodluck Jonathan’s administration, was being enforced under Buhari.
“Although the regulation dated back to Jonathan’s administration, why did he fail to implement it and ask the religious leaders to resign? Why did the council wait till the present administration before insisting on its implementation?” the source asked.
It was also gathered that some ministers told Buhari on Monday morning that the gale of resignation that would sweep across the Pentecostal churches in the South would affect his government.
One of the ministers, who spoke on condition of anonymity with one of our correspondents, said the ministers reminded the President that the regime could be tagged anti-Christian if action was not taken.
Buhari had, in a statement by his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, on Monday, approved the immediate removal and the replacement of Obazee.
According to the statement, the new Council, as approved by the President, has Mr. Adedotun Sulaiman as chairman.
The President has also approved the appointment of Mr. Daniel Asapokhai as the Executive Secretary of the council to replace Obazee
Sulaiman is a former Managing Partner/Director of Arthur Anderson and later, Accenture.
He is a chartered accountant and a product of the University of Lagos and Harvard Business School.
Asopokhai is a partner and a Financial Reporting Specialist at the PriceWaterHouseCoopers Nigeria.
He is a product of the University of Lagos and the University of Pretoria.
Shehu said Buhari had also instructed the Minister of Industry, Trade, and Investment, to invite the 19 Ministries, Departments and Agencies of the Federal Government and private sector organisations specified in the FRC Act to nominate members of the board of the council.

President Muhammadu Buhari has sacked the Executive Secretary of the Financial Reporting Council of Nigeria, Mr. Jim Obazee.
The President has subsequently ordered the reconstitution of the Council.
The decision was contained in a statement by the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu on Monday.
This decision is coming barely two days after Pastor Enoch Adeboye of the Redeemed Christian Church of God stepped down as the General Overseer of RCCG Nigeria based on a law by the FRC.
The statement by Shehu read, “President Muhammadu Buhari has approved the immediate removal and replacement of the Executive Secretary and the reconstitution of the board of the Financial Reporting Council of Nigeria.
“He has appointed a Chairman and a new Executive Secretary for the council. The new Council as approved by the President has Mr Adedotun Sulaiman, MFR as Chairman.

“Mr. Sulaiman was a former Managing Partner/Director of Arthur Anderson and later, Accenture. He is a Chartered Accountant and a product of the University of Lagos and Harvard Business School.
“The President has also approved the appointment of Mr. Daniel Asapokhai as the Executive Secretary of the Council. Mr. Asopokhai is a partner and a Financial Reporting Specialist at the PricewaterHouseCoopers, Nigeria.

President Muhammadu Buhari has also instructed the Minister of Industry, Trade, and Investment to invite the nineteen ministries, departments and agencies of the Federal Government and private sector organisations specified in the FRC Act to nominate members of the board of the council.”
There has been controversy in Nigeria, particularly, the Christian community, following the new law enacted by the council, which stipulates 20 years tenure for heads of religious groups and civil society groups in the country.
The decision has been tagged as one of the reasons Adeboye handed over the mantle of leadership to Joseph Obayemi on Saturday after heading the church for 36 years.
Daddy G.O, as Adeboye is fondly called, who was not apparently comfortable with the controversial law, had accused the federal government of trying to suppress the gospel.
He warned the Federal Government to stop meddling in church matters.
“The government has been showing increasing interest in church affairs. Unfortunately, for us in RCCG, it might not be very helpful,” Adeboye said.
He accused the government of not allowing the church (RCCG) to continue with its stipulated lifetime 100 per cent salaries to its pensioners.
“For example, when I decided on what will be the pension of our pastors, what I decided is not done anywhere in the world, that somebody will retire and continue to earn full salaries all his lifetime”, he noted.
If Pastor Adeboye Goes, Sultan Must Go – Reno Omokri Blasts FG Over Forceful Retirement
News Proof 9.1.17 No comments Edit Post
Ex- Special Assistant to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan on New Media, Reno Omokri, has reacted to the General Overseer, GO of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG, Pastor Enoch Adeboye’s retirement.
Recall that Adeboye, on Saturday announced he was stepping down as the overseer of the church in Nigeria, but will continue to head the ministry worldwide.
Omokri said the policy by the Financial Reporting Council of Nigeria, FRCN forcing the pastors to resign was not in the best interest of the country.
On his Facebook page, the outspoken personality joined the league of persons who have shown mixed reactions following the cleric’s retirement.
He added to the reaction, posing some questions and wondering if the Sultan of Sokoto, being the president of the Nigerian Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs, Alhaji Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar, III, would also be forced to resign.
He wrote: “Financial Reporting Council of Nigeria should not extend its tentacles to churches.
“Why should Pastor Adeboye have to retire because of the FRCN?
“This foolish law has already destroyed our banks by pushing out experienced CEOs and bringing in inexperienced leaders. Where does it end?”
“If Adeboye has to go as GO of RCCG, does it mean the Sultan of Sokoto also has to go as president of the Nigerian Supreme Council of Islamic Affairs? Where does it end? He would also go then.
“When a handshake has passed the elbow it is no longer a handshake.
“This is not a law that was enacted by the National Assembly.
“It is a policy that was put forward by the FRCN. Please know the difference and don’t blame innocent persons,” Omokri stated, arguing that the same policy had destroyed the banking industry as it had forced many experienced chief executive officers to resign.
EXCLUSIVE: How FG's New Anti-Christian Laws FORCED Pastor Adeboye To Name National Overseer ..Urges RCCG Members To 'Seize' Political Powers By...
News Proof 8.1.17 No comments Edit Post
The sudden decision by the renown man of God and the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God to name a national General Overseer has been attributed to some new laws, tagged as anti-Christians promulgated by the Federal Government, News Punch has learned reliably.
The Daddy G.O., as he is fondly called yesterday suddenly announced the change in baton of the Church leadership by naming a very close confidant, Pastor Joseph Obayemi as his successor to lead the RCCG in Nigeria, while he (Adeboye) still in charge as the general Overseer, Worldwide. This decision it was gathered according to Pastor Adeboye was to comply to new government laws on churches in the country.
The renowned cleric decried government’s meddlesomeness on church matters in the country.
Speaking at the 2017 Ministers’ Annual Thanksgiving on Saturday at the Redemption Camp, Kilometre 46, Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, Ogun State, Adeboye expressed worries over deliberate anti-Christian laws being churned out by the Federal Government to interfere in church affairs, Nigerian Tribune reports
The clergyman, however, urged members across the nation to join political parties to be part of decision-making in the country's governance.

“The government has been showing increasing interest in church affairs.
Unfortunately, for us in RCCG, it might not be very helpful,” the cleric fondly called Daddy G. O. disclosed.
The man of God went further to accuse the government of not allowing the church to continue with its stipulated lifetime 100 per cent salaries to its pensioners.
“For example, when I decided on what will be the pension of our pastors, what I decided is not done anywhere in the world.
That somebody will retire and continue to earn full salaries all his lifetime.
This, I started, but government stepped in and made a law that we should be contributing to pension fund.
We’ve to obey and we started doing that. The results are that pastors don’t get as much as they were getting under our own previous arrangement.
But what can we do? We’ve to obey the law,” he disclosed.
Speaking further, Adeboye disclosed that other fresh laws had been enacted by the government to ruffle the feathers of church in the country, with a particular target on RCCG.
According to him, “Now there are fresh laws. We have a rough idea of what the law is about.
Continuing, he said: “some people believe that RCCG is becoming too influential and we’re going to be more influential.
When you get home, tell members to join a political party.
Join a party and become a card-carrying member of any party. Just join any party. We shall decide issues right from ward level.
If you are not active at ward level, you’ll do what they plan and say at the top.
Enrol in any party of your choice and have a card.
When holding meeting at ward level to choose delegates, be there.
One Muslim in Ibadan said years ago that he didn’t know what’s wrong with Christians that we help them to occupy political positions and serve, refusing to capitalise on our population.
That’s going to change from now,” the man of God instructed his ministers.
On the tenure of general overseers of religious bodies in the country, Pastor Adeboye disclosed that in the “new law that has been announced, they said that nobody can be overseer for more than more than certain number of years.
And according to that law, people like me, Bishop David Oyedepo, Pastor W. F. Kumuyi, Bishop Mike Okonkwo were already gone.”
Having said this, Pastor Adeboye presented Pastor J. O. Obayemi, as the new Overseer, Pastor Johnson Odesola as secretary and Pastor Adeyokunnu as treasurer of the mission.
Pastor Obayemi and Odesola were former Special Assistant to the General Overseer on Finance and Special Assistant on Administration and Personnel respectively.
Speaking on the new law, Pastor Adeboye, while presenting the new appointees, said: “So, I want to present to you your new overseer, so you can pray for him.
They also said we must have a secretary; they said we must have a treasurer too.
So, I present to you Pastor Obayemi, Pastor Odesola and Pastor Adeyokunnu to you.
As God will have it, the people have been prepared for the jobs for years.
For instance, Pastor Obayemi has been in charge of salary review committee for years and inland missions.
He’s been out representative at Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) for years, so he’ll be doing what he’s been doing.”
Adeboye, who did not specifically announced that he had resigned or retire as GO, said he has no problem performing his God-given role.
“About me, no problem. RCCG is in 192 nations of the world and the overseer in Nigeria will not drive me out of the camp.
He won’t stop me from doing the Holy Ghost services and he won’t stop me from visiting you.”
Pastor Adeboye joined RCCG in 1973 and was appointed General Overseer of the church in 1981 after the demise of Ondo-born founder of the church, Reverend Josiah Akindayomi.

Again Pastor Adeboye Attacked For Demanding Scarce Dollars As Tithe & Offering From Poor Members
News Proof 24.10.16 No comments Edit Post
A Nigerian medical practitioner based in the United States of America, Dr. Ijabla Raymond has again attacked the renown Pastor and Preacher, the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye, describing his as charlatan in new article titled; Why I'm Even More Convince Pastor Adeboye Is A Charlatan, first published by Sahara Reporter
In The latest article, Ijabla lambasted Pastor Adeboye for demanding from members, dollars denomination instead of Naira as offering tithe and seed sowing fees.
He accused the clergyman of exploiting the poor enslaved followers.
Dr. Ijabla said;
"What exactly does an all-sufficient God need money for? Oh yeah, He needs it to fuel Adeboye's private jet. Adeboye and his fellow pastorpreneurs can resurrect dead people and cure every disease known to man, but they cannot cause money to appear from thin air to pay for their extravagant lifestyle - they need your money for that. "
"How can anyone justify buying a private jet with the donations of people who cannot send their children to school, afford hospital bills or even eat three square meals a day? The pope does not own a private jet even though he heads the largest church in the world. Neither does the British Prime Minister, the head of one of the most powerful countries in the world. It is difficult to see that our jet-flying pastors have more important jobs than these individuals. As I said in a previous article, their message lacks the power to transform our society. Corruption and poverty remain endemic in our society although there is a church or a mosque on practically every Nigerian street. What then is so urgent and special about their message that requires a private jet to spread around the world?"
BELLOW IS THE FULL TEXT OF THE ARTICLE: Why I'm Even More Convince Pastor Adeboye Is A Charlatan By Dr. Ijabla Raymong
Like most of you, I was in disbelief when I first read the quote above. I decided to verify it by purchasing the copy of Open Heavens from which the quote was taken (fully referenced above). I was shocked by what I found out - here is a flavor:
1). If you want returns in Dollars, sow in Dollars. Do not sow in Naira and be expecting a harvest in Euro. It does not work like that.
2). It is the particular denomination that you use that God will multiply and return to you.
3). Do yourself a favor by using the biggest denominations so as to get the greatest harvest.
For the reader's convenience, I have captured the entire exhortation in three screenshots.
The screenshots are for the people who refuse to believe Adeboye could ever say anything like that. They are for those who still believe the man speaks for, and on behalf, of God. They are for those who struggle to accept that the entire Redeemed Church enterprise is all about money. They are for those who live in denial of the fact they have been lied to and scammed by the people they have trusted and respected all their lives.
A friend of mine wrote: "The only way to sell a lie is to hide it between two truths." As these screenshots show, Adeboye's exploitative message is cunningly sandwiched between mostly benign exhortations and does not appear until the month of November, right towards the end of his book.

If this were truly about spreading the gospel of Jesus then where better to fly to than Pakistan, Iran, Afghanistan, Yemen and Somalia? Perhaps, the witches and demons in the airspace over these countries will not grant our Holy Ghost-filled pastorpreneurs permission to land their jets. It seems the ones in the U.S., U.K. and the rich countries of Europe are so impressed by our pastorpreneurs they have signed a memorandum of understanding which grants open access to the airspace over these countries.
The fear of witches, demons, evil spirits, generational curses, and the threat of eternal punishment in hell fire is a potent tool in the hands of charlatans to maintain their control over gullible people. It is in their interest to garnish and perpetuate these myths because the continued success of their trade is reliant on the pervasiveness of these myths in society.
Indeed, it is easier to deceive than to convince gullible people that they are being deceived. Harriet Tubman said: "I freed a thousand slaves. I could have freed a thousand more if only they knew they were slaves." In my view, only those who have been mentally enslaved by Adeboye and his fellow pastorpreneurs will defend the screenshot sermons, and they cannot be freed until they have come to this realization.
