Cancellation of Crossover-Night-Illuminati Arrests Winners, RCCG, Catholic Churches

 

 

Written by Obinna Akukwe

 

The Covid-19 induced cancellation of crossover night services by our religious leaders on the orders of government over a sacmdemics is another sign that Illuminati has arrested Winners, Redeemed Christian Churxch of God, Mountain of Fire , Catholic and Anglican Churches flamboyant new year crossover nights with all the anointings, deliverances, praise, declarations, warfare and everything associated with it.

 




I have warned in my last piece on Illuminatic control of government apparatus in a piece I released in September on the controversial CAMA Law , titled " CAMA law Illuminati Hijacks NASS, Nigeria's Parliament'

 

"They don't care about Bishop Oyedepo, Pastor Adeboye, Apostle Suleiman - they don't even care about Pope Francis, Cardinals' Arinze, Onaiyekan or Okogie.

 

"The church have woken up late Let them wait till the last week of November, and they will be dealt a major blow that will last till January-then they will know that the 'Skulls and Bones Society' meant business."

 

Since September 18th when I wrote it, the church ignored my prophesies and did nothing to fortify themselves until the last week of November when the government started harassing them over Christmas Carols, gatherings, religious events.

Ngige, Anambra 2021 and Igbo Presidency

 Written by Obinna Akukwe

Igbos who are interested in Presidency 2023 should join hands with Chris Ngige to ensure that Anambra goes APC in 2021. I have been a proponent of Igbo Presidency since 2003, and got disappointed when Ojo Maduekwe, then Minister of Transportation, described the quest as ‘Idiotic’ when it is well known that former Vice President, Alex Ekwueme, narrowly lost it in 2003  PDP Convention because former Vice President Atiku Abubakar betrayed him.

Rev Obinna Akukwe in a fistshake with Dr Chris Ngige at Nnewi

In 2011, I cautioned against Jonathan’s re-election, together with many Igbo leaders, including Alex Ekwueme, because, a vote for Jonathan cannot be equated with Igbo presidency. Igbos were deceived by the mantra ‘After Jonathan, He Will Hand over to Ndigbo’. During an Ohanaeze event  in 2012 at Press Centre, Enugu, I challenged Ohanaeze leadership to provide proof of agreement that Jonathan will hand over to Ndigbo, and  Nduka Eya( then Secretary General) and Dr Chukwuemeka Ezeife (ex governor, Anambra State)  reluctantly  admitted that no such agreement ever existed.

How Pete Edochie’s Rejection of Kneeling to Propose to a lady caused stir at Igboezuo Event, Nnewi

Chief Pete Edochie, celebrated nollywood actor had never hidden his disdain for men who kneel to propose to a lady. His disdain was glaring again during the Igboezuo Cultural Event at Nnewi on new year eve of  2020 which held at Kings Palace Hotel Extension.

When he was asked to project the virtues inherent to republican Igbos, he deviated and took swipes at men who follow western culture and kneel to propose to a lady. He described it as incorrect.

Chief Pete Edochie, Dr Chukwuemeka Ezeife, Rev Lloyd Oforah, Rev Obinna Akukwe at Igboezuo Nnewi

According to Pete Edochie " kneeling down to propose to a woman is totally wrong. It is not our lifestyle. Kneeling down before a girl in Igboland means you are handing over authority to her. Marriage in Igboland is when a lady gives her husband to be wine while kneeling down. It signifies that the man has been accepted as the husband . It is the lady who kneels before the husband and not the other way round"


Pete Edochie told the stunned audience that he has been married for fifty years and and did not propose by kneeling and yet nobody has ever come to settle disputes for him, and asked elders to correct younger generations who follow western tradition. He attributed marital crisis in the family to lack of submission.

His controversial remarks and insistence were received with cheers from the male crowd at the event while the ladies murmured in protest.

The former governor of Anambra State, Dr Chukwuemeka Ezeife in his address, asked Ndigbo to be circumspect wherever they are in order to avoid jealousy. According to the the octogenarian “our people should not go to a foreign land and be bragging, and intimidating their host with their success. This has made people to resent them everywhere. Igbos should make money in host communities, but let us not be noisy about it and attract unnecessary jealousy.”

He asked Ndigbo to put their acts together so they can be positioned to lead the nation politically. He thanked the organizers for a wonderful evening.

The Chairman of Ibeto Group of Companies, Chief Cletus Ibeto in his submission praised the virtues of hardwork as the way Igbos will rise to the top. He used himself as example and explained how he started his journey to fame and riches. He promised to be available at any other Igboezue Cultural event.

Senator Dr Ifeanyi Ubah promised to support another edition of Igboezue , and asked the organizers to continue the good works

The Director General of Igbo Mandate Congress, Rev Obinna Akukwe , described the event as the peak of Igbo entertainment and praised the Onye-ije Media and Mazi Ifeanyi Nwosu for an evening where Igbo cultural heritage is revived.


The chief host, Mazi Ifeanyi Nwosu described himself as an Igbo comedian,Igbo teacher and newscaster and gave a history of how he moved from the scratch and rose to stardom, including how he survived in Europe. He explained that anybody can get to the top with hard-work the manner he did and gave history of the projects undertaken by Onye-ije media to promote Igbo culture.
.

The audience was entertained by the Ezeigbo of Australia, while Ezeigbo of some other nations were in attendance. The event had Zuby Michael as the Master of Ceremony, assisted by a local MC from the area.

Klint da Drunk, Mr and Mrs Imo, Obiligbo Boys , Egedege Dance , Paul Nwokocha were among many entertainers who held sway from 8pm till late into the new year while many dignitaries and multimillionaires were in attendance. The audience was entertained with red yam with palm Oil, and Abacha, deliciously prepared with all the ingenuity of Nnewi recipe.

Price of Bread, Flour Rises as Master Bakers Elections Ends in Fiasco , Group writes Buhari

 The attempt by Association of Master Bakers and Caterers of Nigeria AMBCAN to elect new national officers ended in fiasco at the River Plate Park, Abuja, on Wednesday, as two groups emerged from the outcome. The fiasco started after the conduct of the presidential post where Alhaji Mansur Umah polled 96 votes against Alhaji Zubairu Muhammed who got 86 votes. The polling agent of Alhaji Mohammed identified over twenty-six persons who were not properly accredited and called for fresh re-accreditation of delegates which was overruled by the electoral body. The attempt to ignore the fake delegates allegedly imported by a flour mill known as Mama Gold, led to the boycott of the rest of the election.

 

The protesting group stalled the process for over four hours, demanding fresh accreditation of delegates, before they staged a walked out of the venue of the elections citing glaring irregularities, and abandoning the rest of the exercise.

 

.

 

 

 

In a petition sent to the office of the President, Vice President, Minister of Agriculture and Director State Security Services, FCT the dissenting group claimed that “  the association of Master Bakers and Caterers of Nigeria do hereby rejects the fraudulent election held on the 7th of October at River Plate Park, Abuja  because the process was hijacked by fraudulent actors bent on hiding their monumental embezzlement of Federal Government incentives to Master Bakers aimed at making the price of bread  unaffordable’’

 

“The Stakeholders of Master Bakers of Nigeria do hereby calls upon President Muhammadu Buhari to institute a proper investigation of the embezzlement of the past seven years, and diversion of incentives, stimulus, subsidies aimed at making the price of bred affordable to Nigeria.

 

“The Stakeholders of Master Bakers of Nigeria asks the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission EFCC to help recover all the stolen incentives with the flour mills, Bank of Industry and other agencies which these executives deceived and diverted packages from”

 

 

 

The group alleged that proper accreditation of delegates was not conducted and that the owners of Mama Gold Flour Mill brought strange persons in four buses and gave them bribes ranging from N70,000-N30,000 to vote for their preferred candidate. A contestant told delegates at the venue that he was offered bribe of N10 million naira to step down for a preferred candidate.

 

Alhaji Zubairu Abubakar while calling for the cancellation of the elections promised to “consult his lawyers before further comments because he is too shocked to see such levels of criminality with supposedly civilized people”.

 

Prince Jacob Adejonrin while addressing the delegates at the venue of the botched election said that “there is no way this charade can continue. A situation whereby attempts to institute accountable leadership in the affairs of AMBCON is resisted with fraudulent elections can no more be tolerated.  This is not a personal fight, rather a battle to make the price of bread affordable to all Nigerians”

 

Mr Sunday Akam while addressing the delegates said that ‘’  we came here for the accreditation yesterday as agreed only to discover that Mama Gold Flour Mills had imported people into the venue, with four coaster buses ,against the agreements that no flour mill will sponsor any candidate. We also agreed on open –secret ballot due to the Federal Government Guidelines on Covid-19, and proper accreditations but to our surprise, those who are not bakers flooded the venue and were accredited. There is no way we can continue with the process”

 

 

 

The enraged delegates stalled the process for over four hours before walking out and relocating to Royalton Hotels, Area2 Abuja, where they elected interim management. The new officers to act as interim executives including Alhaji Zubairu Abubakar (Interim National President), Prince Jacob Adejonrin( Interim Vice President), Mr Sunday Akam ( Interim National Secretary), Chief Chukwuma Anthony Eze (Interim National Financial Secetary), Mr David Olusegun (InterimNational Treasurer)

 

After the election of Interim Executives at Royalton Hotels, the new Interim National Secretary, Mr Sunday Akam called upon “the Federal Government to conduct a fresh election devoid of fraud, manipulations, irregularities and vote buying so that reforms that will make the price of baked product affordable will be initiated. The state of affairs in the organization is making the price of flour soar from N900 in March to N18,000 in September, and it is not acceptable”

 

 

 

The Director General of Igbo Mandate Congress, IMC, Rev Obinna Akukwe had blamed the leadership crisis of the bakers association for the rising cost of flour, bread and bakery products. He condemned a situation whereby the price of a bag of flour rose astronomically from N9,000 in March to N18,000 in October because criminals running the bakers association at the national level lack the tact to engage government and the flour mills for proper intervention.

 

 

 

While receiving some delegates from the South East and South South who paid him a courtesy call, Rev Akukwe asked for “proper election into the body and urgent intervention of President Muhammadu Buhari and Vice President Osinbajo’s Economic Stimulus Group to urgently address the crisis of Association of Master Bakers and Caterers of Nigeria before an ‘Anti-Bread Hike Protest’ erupts nationwide compounding the already simmering EndSars Protest”

 

 

 

The Secretary of the Electoral Committee,Comrade Ede Egbuji, and two members of the electoral committee, Alhaji Suleiman Mohammed and Alhaji Gidado discredited  the process and refused to sign the election s register. They called for fresh polls, and have made their reports to the appropriate bodies.

 

#Endsars Attack on Northerners -Igbo Mandate Congress Absolves Ndigbo

 


Igbo Mandate Congress wishes to dissociate Ndigbo from activities of some from IPOB who hijacked the commendable #endsars protests, with intent on killing, looting, burning and sacking northerners from the South East zone. The plot includes cattle rustling, shooting of armed forces and criminal activities all aimed at deliberately attracting reprisals, increasing tension and unleashing mayhem on Igbos in the north.


 


Igbo Mandate Congress alerts that the few mob involved in these acts of criminality does not represent the majority of Igbo Youth. Igbo Mandate Congress discloses that the mob also attempted to burn markets in Enugu, Onitsha, Aba and blame it on strangers in order for the mayhem to be complete.  They attempted to rape students of Queens College, Enugu while searching for hoarded Covid-19 palliatives, before the military saved the students from another Chibok case.

IMC wants the aggrieved northerners to know that Igbo traders and establishment also shared the brunt of the IPOB endsars protesters and the arsonists are not representing Ndigbo in their looting and maiming spree.

 IMC wonders what IPOB profit will if they burn down markets in the South East in the name of #Endsars protests, and asks those behind the heinous plot to desist or risk exposure.

 

 

 

Igbo Mandate Congress commends soldiers of the Nigerian Army who secured markets in Abakaliki, Enugu, Awka, Aba, Umuahia from the mob and enjoins them to continue their acts of patriotic duty.

 

Igbo Mandate Congress in an internal communication on Sunday 25th October, asked Igbo leaders, Igbo Development Associations and Ohanaeze Ndigbo in the 19 Northern States to initiate dialogue with their hosts, especially in Kano, Kaduna and Bauchi where aggrieved northerners were planning reprisals.  Igbo Mandate Congress is glad to hear that a successful containment is ongoing in potential trouble spots.

 

 Igbo Mandate Congress had earlier through internal communications of Friday 23rd October, called upon IPOB not to have anything to do with the stolen staff of office of a Yoruba king, to avoid unnecessary victimization and blackmail of Ndigbo. IMC commends the reasonable response of IPOBians in Lagos concerning the stolen staff and asks them to steer clear of Lagos cultural politics since it has no bearing on Igbo success.

 

IMC commends the original #endsars protesters and have readied their memorandum on how SARS and the Army under Obasanjo, Jonathan, Peter Obi and Achike Udenwa  ordered the murder of over 5000 innocent Igbo travellers and traders who have no business with MASSOB, branding them MASSOB members, including the murder and harvesting of the parts OF Chukwuemeka Ugah, ex-CSO to Raph Uwazurike,and leader of Association of Igbo Youth AIYO by SARS Awkuzu in 2014.

 

 IMC is committed to its motto of ‘Igbos Hebrews of Nigeria, Divinely Destined to Transform the World through Faith, Commerce, Industry, and Technology. Igbo Mandate Congress, Commissioned to Shepherd the Process’ and asks northern youth not to fall into IPOB trap.

 

IMC is dialogue with sister organizations within the north and south west to normalize tension and ensure that the violent views of few secessionists does not destroy the relationship with host communities in the North and South West.
