Nigeria Chibok girls: Boko Haram

Some 50 girls are shown with a gunman who
demands the release of fighters in return for the
girls, and says some girls died in air strikes.
The government says it is in touch with the militants
behind the video.
A journalist who had contact with Boko Haram has
been declared a wanted man by the Nigerian army.
The group is said to be holding more than 200 of the
276 final-year girls it seized from a school in April
2014.
Non-Muslims were forcibly converted to Islam, and it
is feared that many of the schoolgirls have been
sexually abused and forced into "marriage" by their
captors.
Parents of the missing girls have described their
anguish at seeing their daughters in captivity.
'Forty married'
The video begins with a shot of a masked man,
carrying a gun, speaking to the camera. He says that
some of the girls have been wounded and have life-
threatening injuries, and that 40 have been
"married".
Speaking in the Hausa language, the gunman says the
girls on display will "never" be returned if the
government does not release Boko Haram fighters
who have been "in detention for ages".
I have seen her: Samuel Yaga, father of abducted
schoolgirl Serah Samuel, talking to the BBC Hausa
service
I have watched the video several times. I saw her
sitting down.
The fact is we are overwhelmed with a feeling of
depression. It's like being beaten and being stopped
from crying. You helplessly watch your daughter but
there is nothing you can do. It's a real heartache.
Those who are still alive - we want them back. We
want them back irrespective of their condition.
As ordinary men, there is nothing we [the other
fathers and I] can do on our own. We are just here
unable to do anything with our lives. You see your
child but someone denies you from having it. They
are being forcefully married and they now live in
terrible conditions.
The video concludes with footage of bodies, said to
be the victims of air strikes, lying on the ground at
another location.
The militant also carries out a staged interview with
one of the captives, who calls herself Maida Yakubu,
in which she asks parents to appeal to the
government.
Maida's mother, Esther, is one of several parents of
Chibok girls who recently published open letters to
their daughters detailing the pain they feel at their
children's absence and their hopes for the future.
Another girl among those standing in the background
can be seen with a baby. Some of the girls can be
seen weeping as Maida speaks.
Chibok abductions: What we know
Chibok girl's life with Boko Haram
The town that lost its girls
Boko Haram has waged a violent campaign for years
in northern Nigeria in its quest for Islamic rule, and a
faction of the group recently pledged loyalty to so-
called Islamic State.
Thousands of people have been killed or captured by
the group, whose name translates as "Western
education is forbidden". Many of the girls abducted
in Chibok were Christian.
Bid to pressurise government? Analysis by Tomi
Oladipo, BBC News, Lagos
Boko Haram has always maintained that the Chibok
girls were safe and would only be released if the
Nigerian government gave in to its demands.
Through this video, the group is again trying to make
the government look like the villain for carrying out
air strikes on the militants, which it claims have
backfired and hit the abductees instead.
Reigniting public sympathy for the girls might be an
attempt to force the government to listen. Boko
Haram is attempting to paint the military campaign
against the jihadists as a failure.
It is also significant that this video comes shortly
after a split in the group, with one faction
maintaining that it is the true regional branch of the
so-called Islamic State. The video indicates that the
other faction, led by Abubakar Shekau, is the one
holding the Chibok girls and so it will use this to show
why it cannot be ignored, even if its rivals have
foreign backing.
Nigerian Information Minister Alhaji Mohammed
insisted the government was doing everything
possible to secure the girls' release.
"We are being extremely careful because the
situation has been compounded by the split in the
leadership of Boko Haram," he said.
"We are also being guided by the need to ensure the
safety of the girls."
The video is the first to be seen since CNN obtained
footage in April purportedly showing 15 of the girls.
The Nigerian army declared journalist Ahmad Salkida
a wanted man after he published details of the new
video before it was released.
Salkida, who moved to Dubai a few years ago, has
written extensively about the inside operations of the
group.
The Chibok girls had been thought to be in a heavily
forested area of northern Nigeria.
A girl said to be one of those captured, Amina Ali
Nkeki, was found wandering in the Sambisa Forest in
May by an army-backed vigilante group. B

Pastor Adeboye prays for his enemies

THE 64th Annual Convention of the Redeemed
Christian Church of God, RCCG, which began on
Monday, August 1, came to a spectacular end last
Sunday with the ordination of 867 pastors to
swell the number of ministers ordained during
the convention to 10,852. Theme of the
convention was AMEN!
After the
ordination service
came the farewell
service which
featured the
General Overseer,
Pastor Enoch
Adejare Adeboye,
his wife, Pastor
(Mrs.) Foluke
Adeboye, their
biological children
and grand children
as well as other
relations thanking
God for the
success of the programme.
Adeboye and his family went on their knees while
one of the earliest leaders of the RCCG and
retired member of the Governing Council of the
church, 92-year-old Pastor J.H. Abiona, Adeboye’s
deputy since 1981 when the latter took over the
mantle of leadership of the church, prayed for
them.
Abiona also prayed for three sets of ministers -
pastors ordained in 1986, 1996, 2006—which
included Vice President Yemi Osinbajo as they
filed out for their special thanksgiving for the
Lord’s provision since their commission.
Thereafter, Adeboye, dressed in white suit, came
back to pronounce his end-of-convention
blessings, declaring that many people had earlier
expressed concern before the convention,
especially because of the security situation in the
country”. But God took control. We thank You
Lord because You took control. Many people
asked me how will you be able to do this? And I
simply told them that my people are praying to a
God that answers prayers”, the General Overseer
said.
He then prayed for different categories of
persons not forgetting those he described as
“those who do not like me,” maintaining that their
dislike “has compelled me to stay closer to God.”
“I want to thank God for all He had done during
this convention,” he said, adding that inspite of
the multitude of saved souls, the miracles that
happened and the unending stream of
testimonies during the convention, God has
promised him that next year’s version will be
greater than this one. According to him, the
theme of next convention will be “Halleluyah!”
The Annual Convention may have began on
Monday, August 1 but to the thousands of church
ministers, it actually started four days earlier on
Thursday, July 28, when they gathered for the
pre-convention Ministers Conference.
The occasion afforded the ministers the
opportunity to be prepared and have a foretaste
of the teachings on convention theme, make
reports on activities from the various fields and
receive blessings for the RCCG year. New RCCG
year begins in September every year.
One of the highlights of the annual Ministers
Conference, which also serves as the annual
general meeting of the church, is that policy
decisions are revealed while corporate goals and
directions are charted. During the 2016 event, the
General Overseer appreciated all the ministers
and commended them for the successes
achieved in the outgoing year and charged them
to brace up to do more, especially in view of the
mandate given to all the provinces and parishes
to double their membership.
Match-making outlawed
One of the major highlights of the meeting was
that pastor should stay away from match-making
members of the church.
Adeboye warned pastors who are fond of ‘match-
making’ brothers and sisters to get married to
desist from such practice, declaring: “Don’t be
entangled with marriage among members
because you will bear the consequences. It is not
your duty to arrange a brother and a sister for
marriage because you cannot arrange their
fruitfulness. Don’t get involved in marriage by
proxy. He advised pastors to teach their spiritual
children to seek the face of the Lord in marriage
because every marriage has its ups and downs.
Seven new AGOs
Seven new Assistant General Overseers (AGOs)
were announced to take over from the six
Assistant General Overseers who retired.
The new AGOs include: Pastors Ezekiel A.
Odeyemi, Elijah O. Daramola, Johnson F. Odesola
and Joseph Obayemi who are presently members
of the Governing Council of the RCCG and Special
Assistants to the G.O.
Others are Pastor Olu Obanure, Pastor Ayo
Adeloye and Pastor Peter Amekhienan who are
presently Special Assistants to the General
Overseer in West Coast 1, East Africa and
Southern Africa Region 1 respectively.
Kalejaiye, Oyitso, others become Special
Assistants
Pastors Johnson Tomisin Kalejaiye, Brown Oyitso,
Okey Mofunnaya, Peter Olawale and Belemina
Obunge were appointed Special Assistants to the
General Overseer. Kalejaiye, a Regional Evangelist
is now the Special Assistant to the G.O. on
Evangelism. Oyitso, Chairman of Central Missions
Board, is now the Special Assistant to the G.O. on
Missions while Mofunnaya, Head of Security, is
now the Special Assistant to the G.O. on Security.
Olawale, National Prayer Coordinator, is the new
Special Assistant to the G.O. on Prayers while
Obunge, in charge of Youth Affairs, becomes the
Special Assistant to the G.O. on Special Duties.
Adetola takes a bow
Having attained the retirement age of 70 years,
Pastor (Mrs.) Oretayo Adetola, Special Assistant
to the G.O. on Women Affairs, Pastor Gbadebo
Lawal, Special Assistant on Prayers and some
others were retired.
Others who retired include Pastors Peter Egho,
Olonode Babatunde, John Adewunmi, David
Taiwo Ajose, Oludele Olatunji, Pastor (Mrs)
Funmilola Ishola, Pastor (Mrs) Deborah Folarin
and Pastor (Mrs) Bolatito Bamishaye.
Ekiti becomes Region
The five provinces of the church in Ekiti State,
hitherto under Region 3, have now been set
aside as a Region, the General Overseer
announced.
Eight new provinces were also created in the new
Redeemed year to join the 209 provinces
currently in existence bringing the number of
RCCG provinces in Nigeria to 217.
Naked community
Another highpoint of the convention was the
revelation that missionaries from the RCCG had
discovered a primitive community where
residents, until recently, were going about their
daily activities naked. Ankoko community
belonging to the Kembiri tribe, according to the
missionaries, can be found between Niger and
Kebbi states in North-West Nigeria.
“Civilization is far from this community as its
women and girls still move around barely naked.
Their children have neither sighted a school nor
the women visited any maternity clinic for child
birth or received my medical attention. They have
never seen electricity let alone good roads to
access the location. Wearing of clothes is strange
to the inhabitants of the community; only the
men are known to wear some form of clothing
because they go out to neighbouring
communities to sell their farm produce—millet
and maize,” a report by the missionaries said.
According to the report read by Pastor
Ahanaonu Vincent, Co-ordinator, RCCG Kebbi
Province Missions, the church’s Central Missions
Board discovered the community and has begun
the process of rehabilitating the people who were
neither Muslims nor Christians by building the
first ever school complex and a teachers’ lodge to
flag off the first phase of the multi-faceted
programme.
Speaking on behalf of the newly appointed
Special Assistant to the General Overseer on
Missions and Chairman, RCCG Central Mission
Board, Oyitso, the co-ordinator assured that,
subject to availability of funds, the second phase
of the rehabilitation of the community, which will
include the construction of a maternity centre/
clinic, market stalls and an agricultural support
scheme, will soon commence.

36 year old Monica Mares and her son Caleb Peterson whom she gave up for adoption right after he was born 19 years ago, have fallen in love with each other after they were reunited, according to a Daily Mail report .
The mother and son, whose forbidden love affair could land them lengthy jail terms, have declared they are madly in love and nothing will tear them apart. They have vowed to fight for their right to have asexual relationship and are appealing to the
public to help donate to their legal fund and

Madeira wildfires: Three dead as flames reach Funchal

Three people have died as wildfires raged in
the city of Funchal, on the Portuguese island
of Madeira.
All three are said to have been elderly people
whose homes caught fire. A thousand people
have evacuated from homes and hotels.
Fires have also been blazing on the mainland
and there are reports of a fourth death in
central Portugal.
The government has triggered the EU Civil
Protection Mechanism, which enables other
European states to help.
Italy has already released a Canadair aircraft
to join the effort.
Several arrests have been made of people
suspected of illegally starting fires.
Forest fires first took hold in the Portuguese
mainland on Friday and on the island of
Madeira, off the north-west African coast, on
Monday, following weeks of dry weather and
temperatures above 35C.
On Tuesday the flames encroached on
Funchal, home to some 112,000 permanent
residents and capital of an island that attracts
more than a million tourists per year.
"Last night, the fire was 100m [330 feet] away
from the hotel and you could hear gas bottles
exploding," Ricardo Correia, a manager at the
hotel Castanheiro, told AFP news agency. "We
evacuated our 140 guests as a precaution," Mr
Correia said, explaining they had spent the
night in a sports stadium.
An iconic hotel on Funchal's outskirts, the
five-star Choupana Hills, was gutted by the
flames.
Regional President Miguel Albuquerque told a
news conference that the fire was still
burning on several fronts but was "under
control," AFP reported.
"The situation is complex but not
catastrophic," he said.
President Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa and Prime
Minister Antonio Costa have scheduled a visit
to the island on Thursday.
On the mainland, firefighters were said to be
exhausted after days battling the blazes.
In addition to three deaths in Madeira, a
fourth death was reported - a man aged
between 40 and 50 in the central region of
Santarem.
There were 176 active fires burning on
Wednesday afternoon, according to Portugal's
civil protection agency , with 13 causing
particular concern - mainly in the north-west
of the mainland:
In Agueda, the fire chief appealed for air
support in the face of what the mayor
said was the worst fire the area had ever
experienced, reported Diario de Noticias
(in Portuguese)
In Arouca, and Aveiro, large blazes were
reported after strong winds fanned the
flames
Further north, homes were coming under
threat in Santa Maria da Feira, reports
said
Some main roads have also been closed
More than 4,200 emergency workers are
battling the flames across the country.
Firefighters are said to have blamed poor
forest management for the fires, but President
Rebelo de Sousa reportedly insisted the
country had been well prepared.

READ THE ARRIVED PAUL POGBA TO MAN UNITED FOR MRDICAL

Manchester - France midfielder Paul Pogba arrived at Manchester United's training base on Monday to complete his record-breaking return to the club from Juventus, an AFP photographer reported.

 Acording to realiable source pogba was driven into United's Aon Training Complex in the passenger seat of a red and black Chevrolet car provided by the club, having flown to Manchester from Nice.

He is due to undergo a medical and is expected to be officially confirmed as a

United player on Tuesday or Wednesday. British media reports say United have agreed to pay  Juventus a world-record fee of £89m to sign Pogba, not including agents'
fees. United and Juventus confirmed on Sunday that Pogba, who has been on holiday since Euro 2016, had been granted permission to undergo a medical by the Turin club. Manchester Airport had earlier tweeted a picture of a plane sitting on the runway,
accompanied by the caption: "An important passenger has just touched down at the
airport. Can anyone guess who it might be?" Pogba, 23, left United in 2012 after making
just seven appearances, but returns as one of the world's most famous players after
winning four consecutive Serie A titles in Italy. He will eclipse Gareth Bale as the world's
most expensive player. The Welsh forward cost Real Madrid around 85 million pounds
when he joined from Tottenham Hotspur in 2013. United manager Jose Mourinho hailed
Pogba's arrival following his team's 2-1 win over Leicester City in Sunday's Community Shield at Wembley.
"I don't think Real Madrid were upset when they broke the record with Gareth Bale,
with Cristiano (Ronaldo)," Mourinho said. "When other people break records, I don't think it's a reason to be sad. I think it's a reason to be proud with the dimension of a
club that can do that and can attract players of this dimension." Pogba will become United's fourth close-

season signing after Ivorian centre-back Eric Bailly, Armenian playmaker Henrikh
Mkhitaryan and Swedish striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

nigeria beat sweden 1-0, move to quarter final

Nigeria have give us joy again in  the  Men's Olympic Football Tournament Rio 2016
after a 1-0 victory over Sweden in Group B thanks to a Sadiq Umar header at the Amazonia Arena in Manaus. he was one indeed. For a large part of the match both sides were playing conservatively but Nigeria certainly looked the most threatening in attack. Fresh from scoring four goals last time out, Oghenekaro Etebo attempted several shots in the half—with his right foot, left foot and with
his head—but he was unable to get the better of Sweden goalkeeper Andreas Linde. Nigeria eventually found the opener six minutes from time, when Stanley Amuzie delivered a pinpoint, curling cross in open play from the left wing that found Umar and the Roma man made no mistake, scoring with a diving header.
The Dream Team continued their dominance in the second half, and just three minutes in,
captain John Obi Mikel took had a well-driven shot from the top of the area saved by Linde. The Swedish goalkeeper had to be alert four minutes later when Etebo dribbled inside the
corner of the penalty box and attempted acurling effort, but once again, Linde saved. Coach Hakan Ericson did use all three of his substitutes—Ken Sema, Muamer Tankovic and
Jacob Une Larsson to try and give his team a new dimension but, in the end, Nigeria's

backline was up to the challenge and held on to all three points.
On Wednesday, Nigeria will close out group play against Colombia in Sao Paulo, while
Sweden have a must-win match ahead against Japan in Salvador if they are going to continue their Rio 2016 journey.
