Unwanted Pregnancy: TB Joshua Disagrees With Pastor Chris
It is interesting to see two leading pastors in Nigeria hold different views on such an important subjected as this thing has happened to many ladies before and still happening. So who do we follow in this regards? Maybe we all should be searching the scripture and find out what the Bible says about the all important matter.
Pastor Christ Oyakhilome had told us few weeks back that a lady can commit abortion if her pregnancy is due to rape, but Prophet TB Joshua is saying under no circumstance should a woman commit abortion.....

Sanusi’s deputy, Moghalu, moves against him; says suspended CBN governor overstepped his mark
While suspended governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Lamido Sanusi, is trying very hard to clear his name from
the indictment of financial recklessness by the Financial Reporting Council of
Nigeria (FRCN) and the presidency, his colleagues appear to be gradually
distancing themselves from actions taken during his stint at the regulatory
bank.
A deputy governor at the bank and once a leading contender to replace Mr Sanusi, Kingsley Moghalu, told the U.K. Independent newspaper that his boss overstepped his authority.
“The lesson that can be drawn from it is the limits of central bank independence… There is a very thin line between central bank independence and… political posturing,” Mr Moghalu said.
According to the Nigerian presidency, Mr. Sanusi was suspended on the strength a report by the FRCN, indicting him for financial recklessness.

Nigerian Government gives automatic employment to families of Immigration tragedy victims
The president cancelled the recruitment exercise that occurred on
Saturday.
Following the Nigerian Immigration Service, NIS, recruitment disaster that claimed the lives of no less than 20 unemployed graduates on Saturday, the Federal Government has offered automatic employment to three members each of families of the dead victims. The government also granted applicants who got injured, during the exercise, automatic employments.
This was stated by the Minister of Information, Labaran Maku, at the end of the weekly meeting of the Executive Council of the Federation, FEC. The meeting was presided over by President Goodluck Jonathan and lasted for about an hour.
Mr. Maku also said the government had cancelled the recruitment exercise by the NIS; and also cancelled any similar ongoing one by all government ministries, departments, and agencies, MDAs; except the Nigeria Police and the military.
A special committee chaired by the Chairman of the Federal Civil Service Commission, Joan Ayo, was set up to conduct a new recruitment exercise to fill existing vacancies in the NIS.
Members of the committee are the Comptroller General of the Nigeria Immigration Service, David Paradang, a Representative of the Inspector General of the Nigeria Police, Representative of the Comptroller of the Nigeria Prison Service, Representative of the Corps Marshall of the Federal Road Safety Corps and a Representative of the Commandant General of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps.
It is not clear if the committee will ask job seekers to apply afresh or would use the initial one used for Saturday’s test. Each of the about 600,000 people that registered for the NIS test were made to pay N1,000.
Mr. Maku said the president “instructed all MDAs henceforth never to embark on any exercise of this nature in recruiting people into the public service, because what happened could have been avoided altogether.
“He has directed that henceforth no one outside the army, police, who usually recruit people through physical exercises, no other MDA or department of government is allowed to embark on this type of exercise that we witnessed on Saturday,” Mr. Maku said.
Mr. Maku said the entire proceeding of the FEC was dedicated to the families of the deceased.
“FEC noted with grief and deep regrets the tragedy of those who died in the ill fated Nigeria Immigration exercise. FEC in sending condolences to the families of the deceased; and also in sending special wishes to those who are injured and receiving treatment in various hospitals in different parts of the country expressed total regrets that this tragedy took place at all.
“Council members were full of grief. When the issue was discussed, we expressed our condolences to the President and Vice President and we indeed reassured Nigerians that all of us who have the privilege of servicing this nation at this time are feeling the pains with the families of our young ones who lost their lives.
“We reaffirmed our commitment to ensuring that this kind of tragedy does not repeat itself in this country,” Mr. Maku said.
He said the President will visit the families of the deceased to express his condolence as soon he returns from his trip abroad.
“Our hearts go out to the families of the deceased, this nation is fully behind them, the grief is not their own, the grief is the grief of all Nigerians and the grief is the grief of the government and the people of Nigeria. We regret it and pray for the souls of those who have departed,” Mr. Maku said.
“It is regrettable that this took place at a time that every effort was being made by government to increase spaces available for employment. For example last year we were able to get 1.6 million employed in the various sectors of the economy and the public service. However this incident is so painful to all of us and we will not want to see in this country young job seekers looking for job and losing their lives in the process,” he added.
Mr. Maku said members of the council assured that steps will be taken to address the various lapses in recruitment exercises into the public service to ensure that “all those who are qualified get access into the public service without going through this kind of experience”.
There have been widespread calls by Nigerians for the removal of both the Minister of Interior, Abba Moro, and The Comptroller-General of Immigration, David Parradang, from office.
Already, the Nigeria Human Rights Commission, NHRC, has commenced investigations into the NIS recruitment tragedy where stampede in various venues across the country led to the death of the job seekers.

Fuel subsidy must go, Alison-Madueke says
“The subsidy policy
cannot be sustained any longer,” the minister said.
About a week after she told federal
lawmakers that the federal government had no plans to remove subsidy on petrol,
the Minister of Petroleum, Diezani Alison-Madueke, said on Tuesday that payment
of subsidy on petrol ‘cannot be sustained any longer.’
Mrs. Alison-Madueke stated this at
the ongoing Nigeria Oil and Gas Conference in Abuja.
“The continued regulation of the
downstream sector has its positive and negative impact on the economy, but the
negative effect is more than the positive,” the minister said.
“The subsidy policy cannot be
sustained any longer.
“This is because the subsidy
payment did not benefit the poor it was targeting, but rather it is benefiting
the rich,” she added.
Mrs. Alison-Madueke said there was
the need to deregulate the downstream oil sector to attract investors. She said that in considering the
deregulation of the downstream sector, government must strike a balance in implementing some of its policies to meet the needs of Nigerians.
“Now that reforms in power sector
are underway, the next focus should be reforms in the downstream sub-sector.“The industry needs to move to next level by increasing revenue and curb oil theft and pipeline vandalism,” she said. Read More
Immigration stampede: Relatives scramble for bodies
Relatives of Mohammed Musa, one of seven jobseekers
killed in Saturday's
immigration job recruitment stampede, have complained hospital authorities
refused them claiming Musa's body for burial three days after his death.
National Hospital has refuted the claims, insisting on extreme caution before releasing bodies.
A brother, one step brother and a friend identified Musa's body at National Hospital's mortuary on Monday, but have yet to be given his body days after he should have been interred according to Muslim burial rites, they said.
They said the hospital blocked their attempts by demanding on different occasions a police report, a release form from Nigeria Immigrations Service and the presence of an Immigrations official before they could claim the body.
As at Tuesday, Sule Ahmed said there was still "no explanation. They have not told us anything. They just kept us here."
NHA head of management information service Tayo Haastrup, said, " We don't want to release the bodies to just anybody especially now that they announced they were going to compensate the families of the dead victims. We want to be very sure. You know how people are."
Six bodies were still at the hospital on Tuesday.
Three survivors hospitalised there, including two pregnant women, were discharged, after five were taken off admission on Monday.
Three other patients are expected released from hospital by weekend.
But one woman among them, Ataidu Uneison, sustained a broken neck and lost use of her legs.
She was barely able to speak when health minister Onyebuchi Chukwu visited them in hospital on Tuesday.
