Church Drama!: Redeemed Suspends Pastor Over Pasuma, Says Pastor Toyin Ogundipe Acted On His Own

1-pasuma1-600x332


Pastor Toyin Ogundipe of The Redeemed Christian Church of God, Lagos Province 20, Lagos Island Family has been suspended by the mission over his attempt to invite the popular fuji artiste, Wasiu Pasuma, along with Tope Alabi, Pastor Keji Hamilton and a former band leader of Fela Anikulapo’s Egypt 80 Band, Kereke Jike into his parish for a programme. The social media was awash with critics and fans over the publicity flier for the said programme slated between Friday, October 23, 2015 and Sunday, October 25, 2015, to be held at Martins Street, opposite Oluwole Car Park, in Mushin, Lagos.
According to a report on Encomium magazine, the attention of The Redeemed Christian Church of God authority was drawn to the controversial outreach, which warranted summon of the Pastor in charge of RCCG Lagos Province 20, who was directed to take appropriate action immediate.
According to information made available says, the handbill was not properly designed in line with the church policy.
‘It is very shocking when we heard about it,’ stated a senior pastor of the church. He further shed light on the issue. “Redeemed Church has policies that guide our activities. For instance, if any parish wants to organize a programme that requires external ministers from other missions, the host pastor must have the approval of the senior pastors, like the area pastor, zonal pastor and so on. But in the case of Pastor Ogundipe, you will discover that the flier only had his name as the minister. It is an indication that it was his singular decision, because, the name on any handbill should follow this order – the pastor in church parish; area; zone, province and the General Overseer. That way, it is believed that you are acting under the proper supervision of your superiors.”
It was reliably gathered that the pastor in charge of Province 20 escaped the rod of judgment because his name did not appear on the flier, but was given the mandate to carry out appropriate sanctioning of Pastor Ogundipe which started with a suspension.
It was learnt from a close friend of Pasuma, that the artiste was never informed about the event.
“I’m sure Pasuma knows his onions and he cannot do anything to tarnish the image of Pastor Adeboye or his church.”
Our investigation revealed that this is not the first time popular Nigerian musicians will be ministering at Redeemed Church. Over the years, Evangelist Ebenezer Obey, the popular juju musician and the General Overseer of De-Cross Gospel Church had featured at the annual Holy Ghost Congress. In like manner after his conversion, King of juju music, King Sunny Ade, took his turn after the ‘Chief Commander’ (as Evangelist Ebenezer Obey is popular called) at the same programme to sing praises to God from their evergreen songs.
In most cases, gospel artistes had featured in concerts, prayer meetings and other related programmes, but this is different from Pasuma’s invitation. “Though the church is opened to everyone to come and fellowship, the altar is sacred which must be fearful observed,” our source

Over Here Guys!; Mosanto Develops Revolutionary New Penis-Enlarging Corn Crop. (Must Read)

The multinational agrochemical and agricultural biotechnology corporation, Monsanto, announced this morning, that they had genetically engineered a modified corn crop, designed to help men have larger penises and longer-lasting erections. The company’s scientists used genes from a number of plants to create this surprising species of transgenic corn, described as “more efficient than any penis-enlarging pill”. They notably used genetic material from a plant native to Indonesia and Malaysia, called  Eurycoma Longifolia  or  Tongkat Ali , which is known for its ability to raise testosterone levels. They also used genes from watermelon, as its rind is a good natural source of citrulline, a dietary precursor which causes the penis to fill up nitric oxide. This relaxes the smooth muscle in blood vessels and erectile organs, augmenting the penis’ capacity for enlargement during erection. “Men will no longer have to pay hundreds of dollars to have larger penises”  says Dr. Fi
