Incredible: Chimamanda Adichie Advocates For Repeal Of Anti Gay Law In Nigeria

This is an article written by award winning writer Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie titled ‘Why can’t he just be like everyone else?’

I will call him Sochukwuma. A thin, smiling boy who liked to play with us girls at the university primary school in Nsukka. We were young. We knew he was different, we said, ‘he’s not like the other boys.’ But his was a benign and unquestioned difference; it was simply what it was. We did not have a name for him. We did not know the word ‘gay.’

He was Sochukwuma and he was friendly and he played oga so well that his side always won. In secondary school, some boys in his class tried to throw Sochukwuma off a second floor balcony. They were strapping teenagers who had learned to notice, and fear, difference. They had a name for him. Homo.

They mocked him because his hips swayed when he walked and his hands fluttered when he

Incredible! Kenyan Bishop Collects Money To Check If Your Name Is In The Book of Life

Indeed wonders shall never end; this assertion could best describe this Kenyan pastor, Bishop Thomas Wahome who has devised a new means of making money off his congregation.

The man of God, Bishop Thomas Wahome whose church is called Helicopter of Christ Church, claims to be able to look up if someone’s name is written in the Book of Life and for that service, he collects Sh 1,500, equivalent of  N3, 268.00, in naira.

Bishop Thomas Wahome is known as the King of Controversy in the East African country and is known to craft very bizarre ways of conning his flock.

According to a Kenyan website, Nairobixposed, “Bishop Wahome claims that if you give him Sh 1,500, he can actually ask God whether you are among those people who will go to heaven. He claims that he has a direct line to God and he can communicate with him directly.”

In 2012, Bishop Wahome reportedly came up with another “unique scam by charging the sum of Sh 1, 200, (N2, 300), for people to touch his garment, just like the woman with the issue of blood who touched Jesus’ clothes in the bible and was healed,” the website continued.

Bishop Wahome had claimed at that time that people who touched his clothes got instant healing from whatever disease.

The 7 Cardinal Sins Of Governor Sullivan Chime - By Enugu Group

An Enugu group, the Enugu Rescue Group (ERG), has enumerated what it called the Seven Cardinal Sins of Governor Sullivan Chime’s administration, charging the regime of mindless looting and human rights violations.

In a Statement made available to the media in Enugu and signed by the group’s National Coordinator, Mr. Christopher Ogbu, ERG said called for the urgent intervention of the federal government, anti-graft agencies, and the Peoples Democratic Party to rescue the state before it is too late.

Not only is the state being mindlessly bled to death through monumental corruption and profligacy, we now live under conditions worse than Adolph Hitler’s Germany. Today in Enugu, Chimecracy, a system of government in which dissent is an anathema, no matter how reasonable, while impunity and tyranny by one man, his family and cronies is the order of the day”.
