Popular Nigerian christian artiste in Yoruba, lady Evangelist Tope Alabi, has come under heavy attack by her fans and other christians for publicly criticizing and condemning a christian track tittled ‘oniduro’ which means ‘my guarantor’ released by her fellow christian artiste, Adeyinka Alaseyori.

Tope Alabi, in a video that has gone viral, was seen criticising and condemning the track and the singer publicly, saying God is not her guarantor and He is more than a guarantor.

The Lady Evangelist who spoke in Yoruba in the video from a background that is apparently a Church alter said: “As great as God is, and with his uncountable deeds, how can someone just sing ‘my guarantor thank you’; God is not my guarantor; God is beyond my guarantor. I love the song but the day I was to sing it the Holy Spirit asked me to shut up.”

But her fans and other christians on social media have swiftly reacted to Tope Alabi, one of the most popular christian artistes in the west, criticism of the track.

A social media user, by the name Omolola Olarogun writes: “Aunty Tope is jt beefing d lady, she naturally doesn’t like it when people make waves more than her in d industry, she likes it when u’re @ her mercy to future in ur song so u will make wave bt she doesn’t know dat when d holy spirit is really ur guarantor, ur path will continue to clear till u get to d top using people u dont know.ONIDUROMI E SE OOOO.”

Another user, T.A. Oke while hitting Tope Alabi hard writes “Aunty Tope, this is pure witchcraft!”

Another user, Oluyori Oluwaseyi Joseph: “What do you expect from a drunk musician.”

Victor Adetayo Adeyemi, while quoting from the book of Hebrews 7:22 notes: “By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament”, adding that the CSB explicitly called him a “guarantee.”
He concluded his post by saying “It’s a complete arrogant show of ignorance for someone who sang “Oti Jesu npami” to discredit “oniduro mi ese o” .
You don’t blow someone else’s candle off when yours is already shinning.
Aunty Tope goofed again!!!.”

Another user, Olowohihi Tunde Barnabas writes: “When I watched the video, I felt very bad and sad that such hatred and bitterness could come from Tope Alabi. I asked myself what could be responsible for that, it is truly the Holy Spirit or out of envy and jealousy. May God help her.”

Omotayo Trachy writes: “She did not understand the song very well let her go back to bed jor”

Another user, Lara Omotola on her part writes “She’s missing it little by little,oti nwo nu aye lo die die,she needs to be careful.see one of her songs that says Olorun ajanaku.”

Innocent Omoruyi

By Omokha Andrew

A 38-year-old activist, Innocent Omoruyi, narrowly escaped assassination in the early hours of Wednesday, July 19, 2023 as his residence at Obe Community,Sapele Road in Benin city was attacked by yet to be identified gun men.

The attack which eye witnesses say was viciously executed on Wednesday, July 19, 2023 bore the markings of a dreaded cult group terrorizing Benin City, the state capital.

The Obe, Sapale Road incident, it was learnt, happened soon after Omoruyi left the house to attend to matters of interest some few metres away from his home.

The assailants were said to have shot sporadically in their frustration as residents scampered for safety.

However, Omoruyi escaped unharmed.

One of the eye witnesses who craved anonymity said: “The felons apparently went for the kill, weilding guns and other dangerous weapons. “We are shocked that they didn’t see Innocent Omoruyi who was just some few metres away from home when they arrived”.

“How that happened, only God knows and it was obvious that it wasn’t his time to die yet and just before that not long ago his business place on Lagos Street, Benin City was burnt down in the middle of the night by unknown arsonists.

“This sequence of events is not ordinary. We know it’s politically motivated due to the role he played in the last general elections. He has been advised to go into hiding at the moment for his personal safety”, he concluded.

When contacted, the police Public Relations Officer Chidi Nwabuzor said he was yet to get any information as regards the latest incident. He promised to feed our correspondent with relevant details as soon as they become handy.

Our information source however revealed that the matter has already been incidented at the Love World Police station on Sapele Road, Benin city.

According to him, the Council also approved that the Federal Ministry of Aviation would be renamed the Ministry of Aviation and Aerospace.

The statement noted that the company would make combined upfront payments of $8.5 million for the concession of NAIA and MAKIA.

He added that the development would spur evidential growth within the Nigerian aviation industry.

“In alignment with the Aviation Roadmap, approved by Mr President on 18th October 2016, the Ministry of Aviation and Aerospace is delighted to inform all stakeholders, both local and international, and the media, that the concession of the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport (NAIA), Abuja, and Mallam Aminu Kano International Airport (MAKIA), Kano has been approved by the Federal Executive Council,” the statement said.

In December 2022 and January 2023, Corporacion American Airport Consortium was announced as the preferred bidder for the airport’s concession after scaling through a series of evaluations of technical and financial bids.

Nominal revenues mean income not adjusted for inflation and decreasing purchasing power.

The Council of Europe says it has expelled Russia with immediate effect after 26 years of membership because of the Ukraine war.

The Committee of Ministers took the decision in a special session, the rights body announced in the French city of Strasbourg on Wednesday.

Earlier, Russia had already declared its withdrawal from the Council of Europe after it had taken steps to exclude it.

On Tuesday evening, the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe voted unanimously in favour of Russia’s exclusion.

Russia joined the Council of Europe on Feb. 28, 1996.

Together with the formal notification of the withdrawal, the Secretary-General of the Council of Europe also received information from the Russian Federation on Tuesday about its intention to denounce the European Convention on Human Rights.

In a statement on Tuesday evening, the leaders of the Council of Europe once again condemned the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

They expressed their solidarity with the Russian people, who continue to belong to the European family and share its values.

The body said it would continue to stand by Ukraine in the fight against the aggressor.

The Council of Europe monitors the observance of human rights in its 46 member states and is not part of the European Union.

The body reacted to the Russian invasion of Ukraine two weeks ago by suspending Russia’s membership, this decision was considered historic.
