Nigerian Guy claims Kefee's failed health revolves around COZA's Pastor Biodun

A certain young Nigerian, Rare Gentle who works with the Church of Ascension Arch deaconry, has opined that Gospel singer, Kefee’s failed health might not be unconnected with her recent criticism of COZA Pastor, Biodun Fatoyinbo.

While granting an interview to Encomium months ago (HERE), Kefee had mocked Pastor Fatoyinbo after he was accused of sexually abusing a former COZA member, Ese Walter.

Rare Gentle wrote on his Facebook page “You must have heard that gospel artiste, Kefee, the 'kokoroko' crooner is presently in coma after she slumped on a flight bound for Chicago. I couldn't help but randomly think yesterday that maybe this has something to do with an interview she granted Encomium in February & lashed out at Rev. Biodun of COZA referring to him as "so called man of God.

"While I don't quite agree with the church suddenly cancelling her engagement with them when the scandal about her failed marriage was rife, attacking the Church or a man of God never ends well. When Christ announced Peter as the Rock of the Church, he established the Authority of the Church on earth (whether the world likes us or not). NO MAN OR GOVERNMENT can bring the church down; Idahosa proved it to Babangida's govt, Oyakhilome has proved it since 2001, Fatoyinbo proved it after the Ese scandal, Ashimolowo has proved it to the UK government, Adelaja has literally subdued the Ukrainian govt.

"Another truth is that Men of God get level- some carry a weight of glory more than others. And though Pastors are not perfect, they are like Parents; their prayers, words & insight has empowered millions to experience unimaginable breakthroughs who hitherto were broken, poor & dejected.

"ONLY A CHILD WHO IS A FOOL TURNS AGAINST THE PARENTS BECAUSE OF A SCANDAL. So just because a congregation sticks to its pastor even after a scandal doesn't mean they are brainwashed, it is simply because they are children who love their father unconditionally. So Father, we ask that you have mercy on, heal & restore back our sweet Kefee in Jesus Name. Thank you for answering because we still need her beautiful voice.”

Kefee has been in a coma after collapsing on board a Chicago, Illinois bound flight last week.

Nollywood producers urged to make films about peace

Several stakeholders in the nation’s entertainment industry on Tuesday urged producers in Nollywood to produce films that would enhance peace and security.

Richard Okorie, a lecturer in the Theatre and Arts Department of the Lagos State University (LASU), said that as key players, film makers were in a vantage position to promote peace.

He also said that they had a responsibility through their work not only to entertain but to serve as agents of positive change and development.

Another lecturer, Prof. Ahmed Yerima of the Redeemer’s University in Ogun, urged filmmakers to produce films with great relevance to the society.

He said the filmmaker was a cultural advocate and so they must see their films as a tool for the modernising the people of Africa.

He noted that often in filmmaking, the society was the object in providing information and so the filmmaker could be seen as a scientist because he used the film as a medium to affect human psychology.

Yerima added that it was not a matter of how society could enjoy art but what areas of socio-economic problems and solutions of the African society the artwork reflects
