"My annual salary is N2m' - Minister of State for Defence, Obanikoro

The Minister of State for Defence, Senator Musiliu Obanikoro, while speaking on Channels TV's Sunrise Daily programme today, said he earns only N2million a year
"My annual salary is N2million, everything put together plus my allowances is N4million" he said.
The Minister also addressed the issue of the inaccurate information the military passed out about rescuing 103 girls last Wednesday, April 16.

Deeper Life Secretary explains why Kumuyi ‘broke down’ during Easter Retreat


More revelations have emerged over the recent failing health of the General superintendent of Deeper Life Bible Church, Pastor William Folorunsho Kumuyi during the just concluded national Easter Retreat of the church.
According to Dailypost , the former university don broke down during the retreat and was forced to rest on Saturday after losing his voice the previous day.
Explaining why the preacher broke down, the church secretary, Pastor Jerry Asemota while addressing the congregation Saturday morning said the sudden health failure of the pastor was not unconnected to his recent marathon engagements across the continent.


According to Asemota, “With much pleading, we had to convince our pastor to rest. You could recall that lately, he was engaged in series of rival meetings across the continent. Only recently, he was in Abuja, Taraba, Bayelsa, Imo, Edo, Akure and Ibadan. He was also in Ghana, Namabia and Togo and other West African countries. 
He’s human and needs to rest, so we enjoined you all to pray for God’s strength upon his life and bear with us at this time. He is not going on holiday but he needs serious rest. I am very sure that before the programmes end, your Pastor will bounce back to complete what he had started” Asemota assured.
Kumuyi who eventually bounced back during the last day of the retreat did not make any reference to his health condition during his ministrations.
However, he was seen very agile and vibrant during the last day of the power-packed programme.
The soft-spoken preacher in his last sermon entitled “Reigning Through the Victory of Jesus” said, once you have the vision with Jesus Christ, you can achieve anything.
Speaking from the book of Luke 6:19, Kumuyi said in these perilous times, one needs to make Christ his focus. According to him, holiness is important as without it, no man can see God.
The preacher testified of a recent miracle that happened during his last programme in Bayelsa State.
According to him, after the programme, he went to the office of the state overseer for a meeting and in the process some persons brought three men on wheelchairs and dropped them behind his car.
“When I saw them, I told them in name of Jesus rise up and walk and I entered my car of drove off.
“Before we could reach the government house where we lodged, we received a call from them that they have started walking. That shows what God can do when you focus on him,” he told his congregation.
