A shocking video has emerged on YouTube showing a young Nige Irian vomiting three ‘demonic cowries’ during a church service presided over by prominent cleric TB Joshua. The man, who identified himself as Desmond from Kogi State, Nigeria, subsequently admitted his involvement in a ‘secret cult’ and gave a sordid confession of his numerous activities. The clip shows the cultist drinking ‘Living Water’ prayed over by Joshua and subsequently clutching his stomach and vomiting uncontrollably. Amidst the sputum lies three ‘cowries’ – small white sea-shells – which are known to be major components of ‘witchcraft charms’ and used for divination by traditional ‘witchdoctors’ in West Africa. “These are the powers I was given – to kill and destroy,”Desmond admits, soaked in sweat and clearly overwhelmed at what had just transpired. The clip then skips forward to the Kogi-indigene’s subsequent testimony in The Synagogue, Church Of All Nations (SCOAN) where he exposes chilling details of his past ...

The push by Nigeria to grow her non-oil export suffered a big setback when her 37,000 tonnes of cashew exported to Vietnam were rejected due to high price of the commodity. This was revealed by the Deputy Executive Secretary, Federation of Agricultural Commodity Associations of Nigeria (FACAN), Mr. Peter Bakare. He said the price volatility was due to lack of conducive business environment. He said this made the price of raw cashew from Nigeria to be higher than the price of finished product in the international markets. “The banks in Vietnam that usually provide the loans to their buyers for purchase complained that the prices of the finished products are less than the price of raw materials. “The Vietnam financial institutions, therefore, backed out of the business, stressing that it is not a profitable venture for its farmers, so the produce are stuck in Vietnam now,’’ he said. Mr Bakare noted that over 67,000 tonnes of cashew were also still lying in the warehouse in Nigeria. Howe...

Read his article below... First of all, let me seek the permission of my readers to invent anew word. The word certificateless does not exist on the English dictionary. I invented it due to the peculiar situation we find ourselves in in Nigeria. The word is created to be a noun which simply means the absence of a certificate in a situation where a certificate is required. For instance, both President Muhammadu Buhari and the 20,000 Kaduna state teachers in the midst of Nasir El-Rufai’s brouhaha are certificateless. I will state this saga with a true story.In Edo history, there existed a particular Oba who lived for a very long time. Now his edaiken (first sonand heir apparent) was growing tiredof waiting for the throne, so he sent his father a calabash with ash in it. His father got the message and sentback the calabash but this time, he mixed the ash with honey, indicating to his son that life was still sweet ave he was not ready to quit the scene.I am a deep political animal. I...
