Edo Election: ‘Go Where?’ – Davido Rejects Police Call For Voters To Leave After Voting

Published

on

Nigerian music star David Adeleke, widely known as Davido, has disagreed with the advice that voters should leave polling stations immediately after casting their ballots in the ongoing Edo State gubernatorial election.

Davido’s reaction came in response to a statement by Frank Mba, the Deputy Inspector General of Police responsible for election security.

In an interview with Channels Television on Saturday morning, Mba urged Edo residents to fulfill their civic duty and return home after voting.

He also announced a restriction on vehicular movement in the state from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. on election day. “If you’re not accredited for the election, stay off the streets. Cast your vote and go home; it’s your civic duty,” Mba said.

However, Davido, a supporter of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), had a different view.

He suggested that voters should remain at the polling stations to ensure their votes are properly counted and to prevent any potential electoral misconduct.

In a tweet, he responded to Mba’s advice with a humorous yet critical tone, writing, “Loooooooool go where ???”

Davido, whose mother is from Edo State, had previously expressed his support for the PDP candidate, Asue Ighodalo.

On September 15, 2024, the singer posted on Instagram, endorsing Ighodalo as “the next Governor of my Mother’s Homeland @asueighodalo.”

Giving Fake Testimonies Is Mocking God – Mike Bamiloye Warns

Published

on

Evangelist Mike Bamiloye, founder of Mount Zion Faith Ministries, has cautioned Christians against giving false testimonies in churches.

Bamiloye condemned the practice, stating that those who share fake testimonies are “playing pranks with God.”

He shared this message on his Facebook page on Thursday, emphasising that individuals engaging in such acts are being influenced by the devil.

His warning follows viral videos of controversial miracle testimonies from members of the Lord’s Chosen Church, sparking widespread debate on social media.

Bamiloye wrote: “PLAYING PRANKS WITH GOD! If you stand on the Lord’s Altar to give fake testimonies deliberately, you are playing pranks with God! If you mount the Altar of God to deliberately tell lies that

God has done what He knew nothing about, you are playing pranks with God!

“If you arranged a fake testimony to be said on the Lord’s altar just to pump up congregation, you are playing pranks with God! If the devil set you up to embarrass the church through all his reckless bloggers, you are playing pranks with God!”

The preacher also warned bloggers who are eager to condemn the body of Christ for money, reiterating that they are unaware that they are led by the devil.

He noted that God is supreme, emphasising that he can do all things as established in the Holy book.

“And you BLOGGERS looking for things to write against the Church of Christ, employed and paid by the devil to drag His Body in the mud and stripe the church naked in the market place for monetisation, come on, you are ignorant of the fact that you are being used by the devil.

“As for me, God is unlimited. There is nothing, absolutely nothing He can not do! He can do ALL THINGS! He brought water out of the rock. He walked upon the sea. He brought out a coin from the fish’s mouth. He turned water into wine and multiplied bread in the hands of disciples.

“The entire Bible is full of mind-blowing miracles! Luke 1:37 KJV For with God, nothing shall be impossible. But if the Devil has given you a gift and you come to the Lord’s Altar to give God the glory, You are playing pranks with God!”

Bamiloye restated the wonders of God, maintaining that he is not interested in taking the glory outside his works.

He enjoined the pranksters to turn a new leaf, stressing that there is an opportunity for repentance before God’s judgement.

“He would not take the dirty glory of the Devil. He is King of Glory. If you are playing pranks with God, I am so sorry for your derailing soul. The Devil that employed you to do this has a damning agenda for your soul.

The Nigerian gospel filmmaker said, “The Judgement of God is hanging upon all the pranksters who are making mockery of God and the Body of Christ. It is a terrible judgement! They have misled multitudes of weak Christians. They have discouraged lots of new converts.They have hardened the hearts of many unbelievers. For the purpose of monetisation,”

He added: “If you play pranks with God, you are risking your soul and playing with God’s judgment.”
