Kaigama advocates elimination of North, South dichotomy for true democracy

Archbishop Ignatius Kaigama of the Catholic Archdiocese of Abuja has advocated complete elimination of North and South dichotomy for Nigerians to enjoy true democracy.
Kaigama made the call while speaking with newsmen at a conference in Abuja, on ”Understanding the mind of the Church on media and communication,” organised by the Catholic Secretariat of Nigeria (CSN).
He said that the serious difference between Muslims and Christians favouring one group or the other, should be totally discouraged, for Nigerians and Nigeria to flourish.
The Archbishop stressed that instead of Nigerians favouring one another based on religion or ethnic sentiments, merit and hard work should be the criterion guiding Nigerians.
According to Kaigama, Nigeria has little freedom of speech, but the freedom to enjoy one’s life and be happy, is what Nigerian leaders need to work on, so that Nigerians would enjoy true democracy.
“Our democracy is a mixture of so many types of government. We have the traditional style of leadership, the dictatorial type of rulership and elements of democracy that are brought into it.
”So, it gives us something different from the conventional democracy. But whatever it is, we should be free and happy, we should have enough.
“Our children should go to schools that are good and attend medical facilities that are very good and people should be free to move around,” the Archbishop said.
On the issue of ban of Twitter, Kaigama said that the country needs the social media because of its importance to the populace.
He stressed that what should be banned was the wrong use and not the media itself.
“We need this social media, they are so important. What we need is to stress that they communicate what is authentic, genuine and what is going to foster harmony, social cohesion and promote values.
“That is what we want, not to ban them. But to promote them and ensure that people use this media correctly.
“The wrong use of the media is what we should ban, not the media itself. This means a lot to Nigerians and it is a very genuine source of communication that should be allowed.
”I think it is very important that they resolve whatever the problem is and quickly lift the ban. So that people with economic and political interest can use it effectively, in order to promote progress,” he said.
Most Rev Denis Isizoh, Auxiliary Bishop of Onitsha Archdiocese and Chairman, Catholic Bishops Conference of Nigeria (CBCN) on Social Communications, said that no matter the situation Nigerians find themselves, there are beautiful sides and tremendous growth recorded.
According to him, there are positive and negative sides and there are things Nigerians have done well in the past years.
“In respect to our democracy, if you look at Nigeria, things have improved, but there are challenges. However, we have to keep on experimenting and making efforts to see how we can improve. We thank God for democracy and how far we have gone.
The Director of Social Communications, CSN, Fr Mike Umoh, who hailed Nigeria media for their hard work, encouraged media practitioners to practice unifying journalism.
Umoh urged them to go to the field and listen to the people not sitting in the comfort of their homes to conclude or generate stories. (NAN)

68 Nations Gather at Dunamis Glory Dome for 2025 Flaming Fire Conference

The 2025 International Ministers Flaming Fire Conference has drawn thousands of worshippers, church leaders, and delegates from more than 68 nations to the Glory Dome, headquarters of Dunamis International Gospel Centre (DIGC), Abuja.
The week-long global convocation, themed “Territorial Dominion,” began on August 26 and will climax with a grand thanksgiving service on August 31. Among the nations represented are the United States, United Kingdom, China, India, Russia, Ghana, Rwanda, South Africa, Australia, Malawi, Japan, and many others.

Pastor Paul Enenche and his family
The international ministers gracing the platform alongside hosts Dr. Paul and Dr. Becky Paul-Enenche include Dr. Bill Winston (USA), Bishop Dag Heward-Mills (Ghana), Steven Brooks (USA), Chioma Jesus (Nigeria), Michelle Benedek (USA), and several others.
The opening night was marked by a colourful parade of nations, with delegates greeting the congregation in their native languages before joining in a collective prayer session for the nations.
In his opening message, Dr. Paul Enenche expounded on the theme, recalling the biblical story of Philip in Samaria.
“Every entity in Samaria, whether spiritual or physical, knew that something had shifted because Philip had arrived,” he declared.
Challenging ministers, he asked: “When last did you enter a place and heaven and hell recognised your arrival?”
Dr. Enenche taught that persecution often opens doors for divine visitation.
> “Whenever the devil does his worst, God sets the stage for His best. Fresh battles attract fresh mantles,” he said.
He identified three forces behind Philip’s impact—the Spirit, the Word, and Power—noting that effective ministry is not in titles or advertisement but in the manifestation of God’s presence.
“You don’t need a poster if you carry power. The proof of ministry is not advertisement but manifestation,” he told a roaring congregation.
The conference has since featured daily morning and evening sessions, including teaching, prayer, impartation, and worship.
On Day 3, Dr. Bill Winston preached on “Living from the Inside Out” and later ministered at the vigil on “Growing Up, the Sons of God,” drawing from Romans 8:19 and Hebrews 5:12-14. Using a practical illustration, he remarked:
“I thought I was Superman whenever I wore a Superman shirt—I felt stronger. So how much more when you put on Christ? The enemy is under our feet.”
Bishop Dag Heward-Mills brought a strong evangelistic and healing campaign on Day 4, teaching on Matthew 16:18 about faithfulness in building the Church of Christ.
The high point was the World, Worship, and Wonders Night, when the Glory Dome overflowed beyond capacity, with thousands worshipping both inside and outside the massive auditorium. The electrifying atmosphere of worship, Word, and miracles marked what many described as a historic visitation.
As the gathering enters its final sessions, ministers and believers alike testify to a renewed sense of power, presence, and purpose for global territorial dominion.

Olukoya Ordains 5,000 Pastors at MFM Global Ministers Conference

The General Overseer of Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries (MFM) Worldwide, Dr. Daniel Olukoya, has ordained 5,000 men and women as pastors during the 2025 Global Ministers Conference.
The ordination, which took place at the Prayer City along the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, was the climax of the four-day conference themed “The Message, the Messenger and the Power.”
Addressing the new pastors before the Sunday service, Olukoya urged them to remain dedicated to their calling and shun rebellion, describing it as a “killer.” He cited the biblical example of Absalom, who rebelled against his father, King David, but died on the battlefield.
The cleric also warned against self-ordination and questioned the authenticity of some who parade themselves as “general overseers, papas, and superintendents” on the internet.
“You are ordained today; whose anointing are you carrying — the oil of God or of man? If it is men’s, you better back out now. Only God can call and ordain you,” Olukoya said.
He further charged the newly ordained pastors not to oppress church members but to be diligent and faithful in their service.
“From today, you shall not be the same person again,” he declared.

From Barefoot Village Boy to Global Spiritual Leader: Adeboye Inspires at Church’s 50th Anniversary

Pastor Enoch Adeboye, General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), has shared a moving account of his journey from barefoot days in secondary school to becoming one of the most influential Christian leaders in the world.
Speaking at the 50th anniversary celebration of the All Christians Fellowship Mission (ACFM) in Abuja, Adeboye reflected on his humble beginnings in a village so small it wasn’t on Nigeria’s map. He recalled seasons when faith was his only currency, yet God’s faithfulness never failed.
“Your promotion is not in the hand of man. Your promotion is in the hand of God,” Adeboye told the congregation, urging Nigerians not to define themselves by present hardships but to trust God as the ultimate promoter.
The service was also a celebration of ACFM’s remarkable journey from a modest “batcher” to a global mission with churches across Nigeria, Rwanda, Uganda, and Burkina Faso. Its founder, Rev. Williams Okoye, described the theme, “God Our Helper” (1 Samuel 7:12), as both timely and fitting.
Guests, including former Senate President Anyim Pius Anyim and Full Gospel Businessmen’s Fellowship leader Ifeanyi Odedo, shared heartfelt testimonies of how the church shaped their lives, faith, and public service.
For Pastor Adeboye, the day was more than an anniversary—it was living proof that no beginning is too small for God to transform into greatness.
