Bishop David Oyedepo and David Ibiyeomie

The founder of Salvation Ministries, Pastor David Ibiyeomie, has disclosed that his life changed after sowing a seed of five hundred thousand naira to Bishop David Oyedepo in 2000.

Ibiyeomie said the amount was small but it was the biggest he could achieve at the time.

He said, “In the year 2000, I will never forget. I went to see my own father. We were trying to find our feet in ministry. We went with one small amount of money.

“Right now, nothing can make me sow that kind of money. But in the year 2000, five hundred thousand naira (#500,000) was our biggest. It will be like carrying five hundred million naira now to sow. So, coming out from Bible School, we were still battling to find our feet in ministry.

“So, we went to visit. He knew where we were coming from; he knew our size. You know there are people who will give me two thousand (#2000) and the kind of blessing they will get will be more than those that will give me one million (1,000,000), depending on your size.”

Ibiyeomie further said Oyedepo prayed and gave him a special blessing that made him realize he will never struggle in his own ministry.

“We dropped it and I can never forget the kind of prayers he prayed which I can’t tell you because it will stir up too much jealousy.

“After we were done, he said kneel down my son. My wife and I knelt down. He moved backward and adjusted his belt and pronounced blessings….oh my God!

“Even Satan knew that there was no way….that was the day I knew that in ministry, I won’t struggle,” he added.

Ibiyeomie also said Oyedepo pronounced some words, “but I won’t say them because the words are too dangerous.

“Just like the way I will say some things about you and some people will be envious. He pronounced those words.

“See, words have power. Jesus used words to bring Lazarus back alive. Every time words are spoken, you rule your world.

“He never gave me material things. What he gave to me was a blessing,” he stated.

A court in India has denied bail to a 44-year-old Nigerian national, Cristian Soporuchukwu, who is currently facing drug trafficking charges in the country.

Cristian Soporuchukwu initially entered India on a business visa but was later arrested over allegations of involvement in the sale of hard drugs.

Reports indicated that after arriving in India, Soporuchukwu travelled through Goa, Delhi, and Mumbai, where he allegedly established links with suspected drug traffickers.

He was accused of purchasing MDMA crystals and distributing them to college students and information technology workers.

According to reports, operatives of the Beguru Police arrested Cristian Soporuchukwu in April 2025 for allegedly selling MDMA crystals around Begur Lake and the AECS Layout Road area.

The New Indian Express reported that the High Court of Karnataka subsequently dismissed the Nigerian’s bail application.

“The anti-narcotics wing seized about 1 kg of MDMA crystals, a pocket weighing machine, 10 zip-lock covers, a mobile phone and a scooter from him,” the report stated.

Justice V. Srishananda, while ruling on the bail application, reportedly held that errors relating to the grounds of arrest could not automatically justify bail in serious narcotics-related offences under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances, NDPS, Act.

The court further noted that Cristian Soporuchukwu had allegedly overstayed his visa in India, according to the report.

The United States Treasury has announced sanctions against Iran’s Persian Gulf Strait Authority.

Treasury Secretary, Scott Bessent, said this in a statement on Wednesday.

The statement extended the threat of sanctions to anyone paying the fees, saying they may be providing support to and receiving services from Iran’s Revolutionary Guards, and therefore may be exposed to sanctions risk.

“The Iranian military’s latest attempt to extort global maritime trade is proof that Economic Fury has left the regime desperate for cash.

“Treasury has deprived the Iranian regime of revenue for their weapons programs, terrorist proxies, and nuclear ambitions,” Bessent said.

Bessent added that the US has succeeded in disrupting tens of billions of dollars’ worth of revenue from being accessible to Tehran.

The United States has launched new airstrikes in southern Iran.

The strike shot down four one-way attack drones that posed a threat around the Strait of Hormuz and then a ground control site.

A US official revealed that American forces struck an Iranian ground control station in Bandar Abbas that was about to launch a fifth drone.

The official described the strikes as purely defensive, saying the US intended to maintain the ceasefire.

Report says this is the second time in three days that the US has carried out self-defense strikes against Iranian military targets in southern Iran.

Recall that on Monday the US carried out airstrikes against Iranian missile locations and boats that US Central Command said were preparing to launch mines in the Strait of Hormuz.
