Wed, Jun 19, 2013 at 1:23 PM Wed, 1:23 PM Message starred FROM The TB Joshua Blog TO You [New post] SCOAN SUNDAY SERVICE: JUNE 16, 2013 Happy Birthday At 50! Show Details From The TB Joshua Blog To supolevans@yahoo.com Respond to this post by replying above this line New post on The TB Joshua Blog SCOAN SUNDAY SERVICE: JUNE 16, 2013 Happy Birthday At 50! by thetbjoshuafanclub The 50th Birthday Anniversary celebration of Prophet T.B. Joshua has come and gone but the euphoria still lingers in the atmosphere. In line with his advice that the spirit of the celebration should be made manifest in a life devoted to prayer for the Church of God for a strong bond of love and rededicating ourselves to the acts of giving for the rest of our lives; the man of God, Prophet T.B. Joshua emerged on the podium looking apparently renewed. The congregation was no less renewed as was evident from the number of people that lined up to share extraordinary testimonies. T .B .JOSHUA In his brief message, Prophet T.B. Joshua reiterated his resolve to encourage job creation by entrepreneurs and organizations all over the world. In response to the numerous responses already received from across the globe, he said, we don’t need to ask whether a candidate belonged to this or that church. What matters is that they are human beings. If God give you job and you take God’s job, you must accept God and a sense of judgment will be the result; you will think right and judge right. You will have a desire to know what happens after this life is over. You will think about that if God gives you a job. The job offers will reduce crime and what is happening to the youth all over the world. South African Gospel Singer Deborah Fraser was guest at The SCOAN Sunday Service where she performed two of her heart-rending hit-track songs to the high-spirited congregation who sang along and danced praising God. Because of want of space, we are constrained to bring to you only a few of the testimonies of healing, deliverance and breakthroughs resulting from the use of the New Anointing Water, Anointing Sticker and praying with the man of God, Prophet T.B. Joshua on Emmanuel TV. GOD QUALIFIES THE UNQUALIFIED 1 Mariana Parkhotyuk Mrs Mariana Parkhotyuk from the USA, was without a job until she visited The SCOAN during Prophet T.B. Joshua’s 49th birthday. She did not have the requisite qualifications for the job she had her eyes on. She was privileged to meet with the man of God who gave her the Anointing Water. When she returned to the USA she prayed and ministered the Anointing Water on herself and to her credentials and said to God, “God qualifies the unqualified”. After her prayers, she applied for a job as a Clinical Specialist and was given the job. The organization also sent her for on-the-job training which resulted in rapid promotion and new placement in her career. She not only has a bigger salary than she had ever received; she also got the chance to further her education through the job she was blessed with. She believes strongly that God used the medium of the Anointing Water to bring about more blessing and favour in her life. SCHOLARSHIP GRANTED OUT OF NOWHERE 2 Bryson StillMr Bryson Still from Washington, USA, started a degree course in Education but was unable to get the finances to further his education. He had made several efforts towards raising the necessary funds but was unsuccessful. He was privileged to receive the Anointing Water and anointed himself with prayer believing for a breakthrough in the name of Jesus Christ. Shortly after, he received a call from the President of his college whom he never knew, offering him a scholarship to the tune of US $50,000 which covered his tuition and all other expenses. He now has a hope for a bright academic future to the glory of God. HOPELESSNESS TURNED TO HAPPINESS 3 Lesego Mabote Lesego Mabote from Botswana, told her moving story of how in her place of work, she had been painfully waiting for promotion for more than 10 years. In spite of her strong attachment to her job and the zeal to do her best, she was disappointingly demoted whereas her colleagues were being promoted. This unusual trend of administrative injustice caused her depression and she gave up hope of ever being able to move upward in her career. She resigned herself to working only for money for food and utilities and not expecting a better and brighter career future. In search of solution to her problem she went to prayer houses but nothing positive came out of her being prayed for. Coming from a background of idol worshipping family, she was obliged to go back home to find out what the matter was. She was told by spiritualists that if she did not keep up the practices of her forbears she would not expect any success or breakthrough in her career. This revelation blackened her horizon and she believed there was not a single chance of her coming out of her predicament. As she however watched Emmanuel TV and saw the wonderful testimonies given by people who had similar situation as hers, she decided to come to The SCOAN and was privileged to receive the Anointing Water. When she got home, she began to minister the Anointing Water every day in the name of Jesus, believing that her help could only come from the Almighty. She also prayed that God should rewrite her history of being bound to family tradition. The Son of God declared her free and she is free indeed. Not long after, out of the blue, she received a call from her manager that she was due to be promoted to Supervisor of the office. She is now proud to be occupying the position of a Supervisor in her office. Her depression and despair have been turned into joy. DRY BONES SHALL RISE AGAIN! Mrs Navone from Tanzania was not able to walk and was bound to a wheelchair for a long time. She arrived at The SCOAN on a wheelchair. She had to depend on her children to do everything for her and that situation of helplessness affected her psychologically and caused her serious depression. She had to stop going to work and would sit at home all day, desperate for relief. She went to many hospitals and traditional healers but no solution could be found. As she watched Emmanuel TV and saw many testimonies of people with even greater problems than her own she received renewed hope. The faith that her own miracle was possible made her ask to be brought to The SCOAN even if it meant coming on a stretcher. When she arrived at The SCOAN, she was seated at the canopy section within the overflow congregation. According to her, she was surprised as she saw her daughter crying for the man of God to help her, that her mother was sick. The man of God sent for her and people came and quickly wheeled her inside the church.4 Navone from Tanzania The man of God, T.B. Joshua prayed for her, touched her and asked her to rise up, in Jesus’ name. Immediately, she got up and started walking without any pain. She can now carry out all her domestic chores without assistance from anyone! Her daughter, Mary Mboya, also testified to the extraordinary healing which had taken place in the life of her mother. She explained how the constant care and attention the condition of her mother demanded, had become a burden to her. The journey from Tanzania to The SCOAN was not easy for them as they had to pass through several countries and the transfer from one aircraft or vehicle to another was tiring for both of them. Her mother would cry all night due to the pain in her legs. Now, after the prayer, she sleeps peacefully. She no longer has to use a wheelchair and walks freely without any pain. Their advice to the viewers and congregation was simple: Believe that Jesus Christ is the Healer and great Physician in this world. After the testimony, Mrs Navone danced before the Lord with overflowing thankfulness in her heart. She was warmly embraced and 5 Navone from Tanzania congratulated by the numerous attendees from all over the world who danced with her inside the church. thetbjoshuafanclub | June 19, 2013 at 8:21 pm | Tags: announcements, Biography, Charity, church of all nations, Crusades, Deliverance, Dwarves, Emmanuel TV, exclusive, foreverjones, Fraudsters, Healing, Interviews, Jesus Christ, johannesburg, john attah mills, Message, Michael Jackson, My People FC, onazi ogenyi, Persecution, physically challlenged, press release, Prophecy, reconciliation, Sanni Emmanuel, sunday service summary, TB Joshua, the saviour, The Synagogue, widows | Categories: Uncategorized | URL: http://wp.me/pxw1c-1M1 Comment See all comments Unsubscribe or change your email settings at Manage Subscriptions.

2013 - 06 - 12 INAUGURATION OF THE NEW POLICE SERVICE COMMISSION BOARD MEMBERS

2013 - 06 - 12 INAUGURATION OF THE NEW POLICE SERVICE COMMISSION BOARD MEMBERS President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan GCFR today directed the chairman of the Police Service Commission Mike Okiro to purge the Nigeria Police Force of top officers who do not merit their ranks. Jonathan gave the directive at the State House in Abuja after swearing in Sir, Mike Mbama Okiro IGP (Rtd) CFR, NPM, mni, as the new Chairman of the Police Service Commission and five other members including Hon. (Dr.) Olufunmilola Adekeye, JSC (Rtd), CON, Yakubu Mohammed DIG (Rtd), NPM, mni, Hajiya Aisha L. Tukur, Comfort Obi OON, FNGE, and Chief (Dr.) Tonye Anyim. The president said “And that is one area I believe you will go into. People who are promoted to assistant police commissioner and above must merit the rank. If you don’t merit the rank you should be retired from the service because it is better for you not to have enough manpower than for you to have viruses and all kinds of characters in the Police Force,” He further revealed “When the Police Headquarters was bombed, some people came to me and say Mr. President, sack all police officers working in that place from Assistant Commissioner of Police and above. I did not sack any because of that incident, but that was the advice I got,” But President Jonathan stressed his reasons thus: “I believe there are two things. One is the issue of discipline. So, one of the responsibilities of the Police Service Commission is to instil discipline. Another thing I believe is that people who have no merit to certain ranks are being promoted to those ranks. “One of your (PSC) responsibilities is to handle promotion. I believe with you (Okiro), only those who merit or deserve promotion should be promoted. Those who deserve to be disciplined or dismissed must be disciplined”. The president said the Federal Executive Council, may in the next one or two weeks, look at the report on police reform in order to come up with a white paper. “We give you privilege to look at that document before we come out with a white paper. So that if there is a suggestion that you will bring, you bring it so that it will be part of the white paper since you are the one to manage the police,” he told the new commission chairman. After the swearing-in ceremony, Sir, Okiro said the Police Service Commission would look at the extant laws and see the areas where it is supposed to act to reform the police. On why the police perform better outside, Okiro said:“The reasons are far reaching. One, you can find out that the environment is different, the people are different and also the equipment and all of what to work with. “The Nigerian Police officers while rendering service outside this country under the United Nations they give them the wherewithal to do the work.” Okiro lamented that Nigeria Police Officers are not motivated to perform. “From ACP up they are not feeling very happy. Many of them have no houses, the morale of the police is quite low, they need to be motivated, and you have to look into what to make them perform optimally.” The new Chairman in his speech solicited the continued support of the media, the youths and all well meaning Nigerians in this arduous task of revamping and re-invigorating the entire Nigeria Police towards repositioning the Force for greater efficiency and effectiveness in containing emerging internal security challenges, and indeed providing a safer and secured environment for meaningful socio-economic development in the nation. Finally, on behalf of himself and other members of the Police Service Commission, he pledged that they will do their utmost best to take the Nigeria Police Force to the next level. He pointed out that the Nigeria Police Force used to be acclaimed as the “best in Africa”, and that together with the support of all, we can reclaim our pride of place.

SHAME: NIGERIAN ARMY N1,000 EXTORTION IN THE NAME OF RECRUITMENT

SHAME: NIGERIAN ARMY N1,000 EXTORTION IN THE NAME OF RECRUITMENT The Nigerian army just announced its recruitment for 70th RRI TRADESMEN & WOMEN 2013 and applicants will have to pay N1000 for the form. It is a shame that new recruits have to pay N1,000 for application form into nigerian army. It is a shame that the army is extorting money from people who volunteer to give their lives in the service of this country. In other countries, the army holds recruitment fair, encourage and entice people to join in the service of their fatherland. It is a shame that a recruitment portal that doesn't cost more than N300,000 to develop and deploy is being used to extort millions of naira from jobseekers. It is a shame that the army 'ogas at the top' will embezell the funds budgeted for recruitment and also go ahead to defraud innocent nigerian youth of N1,000. Can anyone tell us what the money budgeted for recruitment is used for? Can someone please multiple N1000 X 10-20 thousands applications and see how much they are ripping off our youths. It is a shame that the army is setting a dangerous precendents, very soon all establishment will start charging money for recruitment and deprive the poor of employment. It is a shame that the government is encouraging this extortion and reaping from the unemployment they created. If the government didn't create this massive unemployment in the country, who will be willing to pay for N1000 for army application? During the 70's when the army 'ogas at the top' were recruited, they were paid to even come for recruitment camps, now they have bastardised the system and moved on to demand N1000 before you buy application form. It is only this country that the armed forces are treated this way. It is a shame that this culture of impunity has been going on for two years now and neither the National Assembly, Public complaint commission or the traditional press and media have ever challenged it. It is a shame that the nigerian youth, students, jobseeker and the general public have left this to go unabated. It will continue to be a shame if after reading this you do nothing. THIS IS THE TIME TO STOP THIS EXTORTION. THIS IS THE TIME TO ACT. TOGETHER WE CAN STOP THIS BY MAKING OUR VOICE TO BE HEARD. PLEASE SHARE THIS IN YOUR WALL, EXPRESS YOUR DISAPPROVAL OF THIS EXTORTION, PASTE THIS ON YOUR STATUS, ALERT THE PRESS, TELL THE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY MEMBERS, PUBLIC COMPLAINT COMMISSION ETC. PLEASE ALSO PASTE THIS TO PRESIDENT GOODLUCK JONATHAN'S FACEBOOK WALL TILL HE CALLS THE ARMY TO ORDER. TOGETHER WE CAN!!

Amaechi: The tight rope of survival

Rivers State Governor, Hon. Chibuike Amaechi, is engaged in the political battle of his life. Will he succeed or will forces against him consume him? NDUBUISI ORJI asks. For the Rivers State Governor, Chibuike Amaechi, it is not raining, it is pouring. Since April 15, when a Federal High Court, sitting in Abuja sacked the Rivers State Executive of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) loyal to him and replaced them with a new executive loyal to Minister of State for Education, Nyesom Wike, the governor has been on the spot. Amaechi and Wike, who incidentally was his first Chief of Staff and Director General of his reelection Campaign in 2011, have been at daggers drawn over control of the party’s machinery in the state. So, the court judgment that sacked the governor’s men in the party leadership was a blow below the belt for Amaechi. On assumption of office, one of the first things the new party executive, led by Mr. Felix Obuah, did was the suspension of 27 members of the State House of Assembly loyal to the governor and purportedly declared their seats vacant. The House had suspended the chairman of Obio-Akpor Local Government Area, the vice chairman of the council and the 17 councilors, and acting on the resolution of the House, the governor inaugurated a caretaker committee for the council. Obio-Akpor is the home local government of the Minister of State for Education. This infuriated Obuah to no end. He gave the governor and the House a 48-hour ultimatum to rescind the decision but the House would not bulge. Hence the decisions of the party’s chairman to wield the big stick. In the past two weeks, political tension in the state has reached an all-time high with the governor and his associates, gasping for political breath. Pro and anti-Amaechi protests have rocked the state At the height of the crisis, the Police sealed off the secretariat of the Obio-Akpor LGA, just as men of the Force invaded the House of Assembly Complex, making it impossible for both the Caretaker Committee and the legislators to gain access to their offices. However, the Police later vacated the council secretariat, following a court order. The political crisis in the state assumed a new dimension, a fortnight ago, when the Speaker of the State House of Assembly, Mr. Otelemaba Dan Amachree, alleged that there were plans by five members of the State Assembly loyal to Wike to fraudulently impeach the governor. Amachree alleged: “The Abuja plan on ground is to falsely impeach the Speaker and the Executive Governor of Rivers State, Chibuike Amaechi, and create confusion through varied responses, which they hope would make the state ungovernable and provide them with some kind of warped basis to introduce emergency rule in Rivers State.” He also alleged that a fake mace had already been procured to enable the five pro-Wike lawmakers hold emergency session where they will remove the governor. But Obuah said the allegation is baseless. He said the party under his leadership has no plans now to impeach Amaechi or the Speaker. According to him, one of his duties was to bring everybody under one umbrella and to heal the wounds inflicted on the party by the lingering crisis. The denial notwithstanding, those in the know insist that the plan to impeach the governor is real. And that the Wike group is already making overtures to lawmakers loyal to the governor to dump him. Though the state chapter of the PDP has dismissed alleged moves to impeach him, and it is a near impossibility for five legislators in a 32 man Assembly to impeach the governor, the governor is still in a very precarious situation. Recall that former governor of Plateau State, Senator Joshua Dariye was impeached by only five members of the state House of Assembly. While former Oyo State governor, Senator Rashidi Ladoja was also impeached in very suspicious circumstances. Not a few believe that the Minister is fighting a proxy war whose aim is to decapitate Amaechi politically. Analysts believe that it is more a case of the voice of Jacob and the hand of Esau. Besides, the Rivers State governor’s face-off with the Presidency over his continued leadership of the Nigeria Governors Forum seems to give credence to view that there is more to the Rivers State PDP crisis than meet the eyes. Recall that the Rivers State government is currently engaged in a spat over the grounding of the state airplane. The National Civil Aviation Agency (NCAA) had accused the Rivers State government of breaching aviation regulations. The government had repeatedly denied that charge, insisting instead, that the grounding of plane was political. Indications that all is not well between Rivers State governor, Chibuike Amaechi and the Presidency emerged late last year when the governor accused the presidency of ceding oil wells belonging to his state to Bayelsa. Rivers State government pointedly stated last year that the Presidency wanted to cede the oil wells in the disputed Soku oil field to the neighbouring Bayelsa state as a way of emasculating him financially ahead of the 2015 general election. “There is rumour that they are emasculating me because of 2015. It is unfortunate. It is a non-issue. For now, I have no plan for 2015. I was shocked to hear of Lamido/Amaechi 2015 campaign, with branded vehicles in the North and many people are panicking. “I am exhausted. I have not attended any 2015 meeting. If they are taking Rivers oil wells because of 2015, they should leave us alone.” Amaechi is rumoured to be planning to contest the 2015 general election as Vice Presidential candidate to Jigawa State governor, Mallam Sule Lamido. President Jonathan and his wife, Patience are widely believed to be responsible for the political crisis in Rivers. Top presidential official were alleged to have relocated to Yenogoa, the Bayelsa state capital, where they met with security chiefs from Rivers State on how to tighten the noose on Amaechi. But the wife of the President has denied any involvement in the Rivers State political imbroglio. In a statement by her Special Assistant on Media, Ayo Osinlu, Mrs. Jonathan denied the allegation. “We assure all well-meaning Nigerians that this is the handiwork of mischief-makers who are hell bent to drag the person of the First Lady into disrepute,” the statement said. However, an elder statesman and former Minister of Petroleum, Professor Tam David West said, the Rivers State governor is a victim of political vendetta. He said the Federal government is persecuting the governor because the President has been mislead into believing that he is vying for vice presidency in 2015. The former Minister said unknown to a lot of people, Amaechi is eyeing the Senate in the next political dispensation. He said it is because Wike, who hails from the same senatorial district with the governor is equally eyeing the senatorial seat that both men are at loggerhead. “What has Amaechi done? Jonathan had the highest votes in rivers state. Without the governor of the state supporting him, would he have gotten the votes?. Amaechi and the Minister of state, Education are very close. They fell out because Wike wants to contest for Senate, and Amaechi also wants to contest for Senate. Jonathan has the impression that Amaechi wants to run for the vice presidency and it is a lie.” David-West, who maintains that the political crisis is a drawback to the state challenged President Jonathan to publicize Amaechi’s offences. “Let Jonathan bring out Amaechi’s corruption. Let him bring out his offences, then I will join him. He is just pursuing vendetta. “Okay, governors’ forum. Governors’ forum is a forum of all the governors in the country you cannot because you are a PDP governor and chairman of Governors forum and make governors forum an extension of PDP. We have a proverb in Ijaw that if you chase a fowl too much , you will fall down, the chicken will go”, the former Minister warned. Amaechi says the problem in his state is because of his decision to seek a second term as Chairman of the Nigeria Governors Forum (NGF). He eventully defeated the party’s prefered candidate, Governor Jonah Jang of Plateau to retain his position as NGF chairman. Following his re-election, Amaechi was suspended by the PDP National Working Committe (NWC). And plans to impeach him is on, with a South -south governor mandated to raise 7billion naira to facilatate the plot. So far, as at Thursday last week, eight of the pro-Amaechi lawmakers have crossed to the Wike camp, laeving the governor with 19 lawmakers. Though Ameachi is known to be rugged, there is no doubt that he is walking a tigh trope. In this clime, no one engages in a fight with the president and comes out without bruises. Former governor Ayo Fayose of Ekiti, Dariye (Plateau), Dipreye Alameiseigha (Bayelsa) and Ladoja (Oyo) are examples of political casualties in the battle with the Presidency. Will the River State governor survive or will he go down like other governors who fell out of favour with Aso Rock. The days ahead will tell.
