JUNETEENTH BECOMES A US NATIONAL HOLIDAY

-
 

June 17, 2021 - President Joe Biden signed the legislation passed by US Congress to enshrine June 19 as a national holiday to commemorate the end of slavery in the US.

Juneteenth (officially Juneteenth National Independence Day and also known as Jubilee Day, Liberation Day, and Emancipation Day) is the oldest nationally celebrated commemoration of the ending of slavery in the United States. 

On June 19, 1865, a Union General rode into Galveston, Texas to announce that the Civil War had ended, and slaves had been freed.

YOU CAN’T LOVE NIGERIA & WANT BOLA TINUBU AS ITS PRESIDENT

By Akin Ojumu Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu is not a stranger to Nigerians. The man with the Graves Disease eyes has been around a long time. BAT is a vector of deadly viral disease of pandemic proportions. He is a parasite that takes over everything his hand touches.  The following is just a sample of what Bola Tinubu, allegedly, did to Lagos State: Number 4, Oyinkan Abayomi (Formerly Queens) Drive, Ikoyi – Valued at N450 Million A 5-bedroom detached house on one acre of land was Lagos State Governor’s guest house since 1979 Certificate of occupancy was signed and released to Tinubu by Fashola in 2007 26 Bourdillon Road, Ikoyi – Valued at N600 Million Originally claimed to be by Oando Plc Guest House, it was later acquired by Tinubu from Oando Lagos State Government paid to rebuild and renovate, it then purchased it from Tinubu for an undisclosed sum.

UNITED STATES v. BOLA TINUBU (CASE # 1:93-cv-04483)

In 1993, Bola Tinubu was a defendant in a case in the United States District Court, Northern District of Illinois, CIVIL DOCKET FOR CASE Number 1:93-cv-04483. The case involved drug related seizure of property. Bola Tinubu entered a settlement with the United States government. The presiding judge, Hon. John A. Nordberg, ordered that funds in the amount of $460,000 in account 263226700 held by First Heritage Bank in the name of Bola Tinubu be forfeited to the United States pursuant to 21 USC 881(a)(6) and 18 USC 981. Every Nigerian must ask himself the question, “Is this the man we want as president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria?” A man involved in a drug trafficking case, forced into settlement, and ordered to forfeit nearly half a million dollars in 1993 which is worth an equivalent of $1 million today. The destiny of Nigeria is at stake in this election. Choose wisely.

CREFLO DOLLAR REPENTS OF THE TITHING DOCTRINE

By Akin Ojumu After decades of leading his flock astray by teaching them that tithing is a divine ordinance that all Christians must abide by otherwise their lives will be tight and the devourer will invade their finances, Pastor Creflo Dollar has now repented of being one of the chief promoters of the compulsory tithing doctrine for New Testament believers. The prosperity preacher who became inordinately wealthy by teaching tithing now says he was wrong all along, and that tithing was never, and has never been, a requirement for Christians who live under grace. To which I say, “Welcome Bro Creflo to the camp of the renegades.” Although, over the years, you have deceived and misled many people around the world by your insistence on tithing, and have fleeced your congregation out of their meagre resources by your strident teachings on tithing, those of us who have been called rebels because of our stance on tithing have no choice but to rejoice that you have finally seen the light and h
