Work and Pray in the Year 2026-Prophet Arabambi to Nigerians

Image
Millions of Nigerians are now conscious of the disturbing realities of the times-dehumanization, manipulations, deceit, exploitation, deceit and man's inhumanity to his fellow man. What can they do to liberate themselves? They are helpless. In this message, Prophet Timothy Arabambi of the   Christ Apostolic Church (CAC) (Reformation Land) Ile-Atunshe, Ibadan, Nigeria, opines that the year 2026 is a year of good tidings. Excerpts: The year 2026 is going to be a prosperous year with condition. God said that fi my people who have called my name, repent and see My face, I will heal the land. And mind you, God does not deal with us collectively, He deals with us individually. Believe this, there is no government that has ever reigned that has never experienced tribulation, challenges and pestilence. Also, there is no government that has ever reigned, and the door of the correctional center was closed. So, I am saying let us move closer to God because He is everything. Minus God from any...

New Electricity Tariffs Suicidal-UCH NASU Chairman

 
AZNIAL RAHMAT on LinkedIn: • Although state elections are coming soon and domestic inflation is still…

Health workers in the University College Hospital (UCH), Ibadan, Nigeria have appealed to the Federal Government to urgently intervene in the new electricity tariff plans.

The health workers made this appeal through the branch chairman of the Non-Academic Staff Union and Associated Institutions(NASU), Comrade Kehinde Abiona.


''Health workers in UCH want to make an appeal to whom it may concern or those in authorities to look into the new tariff plans for electricity in government-owned health institutions which are non-profit, but to serve humanity. It is very disheartening that a socially responsible government-owned hospital such as the UCH was put on a suicidal electricity plan that can hardly be paid for, going at our rates. The UCH pays N74.43 per unit and the new tariff is N225.00 per unit. The Federal Government should intervene by restoring subsidies for all the government-owned health institutions by increasing their monthly overhead allowances, which are presently not meeting up with the responsibilities of the teaching hospitals and other government-owned health institutions nationwide'', Comrade Abiona stated.

The NASU chairman also disclosed that normalcy has since returned to the hospital, ''as a result of the intervention from above, electricity supply was restored for the smooth running of services yesterday 4th April 2024.''

Similarly, the branch chairman of the Nigeria Union of Allied Health Professionals(NUAHP) Comrade Oladayo Olabampe stated that the health workers in UCH  have returned to work, adding,''now that electricity supply has been restored, whatever actions we took were because of the electricity disconnection. We love our patients, that is why we took the action. It was not possible to perform optimally without electricity supply. Now the electricity supply has been restored, we congratulate ourselves as we have since returned to our primary duties.''

Ceaseless Prayers

Image
 Let us pray ceaselessly for God to open the eyes of those who have political power and have become committed to unjust economic policies and deep social injustices.  Amos 8:4-14 Hear this, O ye that swallow up the needy, even to make the poor of the land to fail, 5 Saying, When will the new moon be gone, that we may sell corn? and the sabbath, that we may set forth wheat, making the ephah small, and the shekel great, and falsifying the balances by deceit? 6 That we may buy the poor for silver, and the needy for a pair of shoes;  yea , and sell the refuse of the wheat? 7 The LORD hath sworn by the excellency of Jacob, Surely I will never forget any of their works. 8 Shall not the land tremble for this, and every one mourn that dwelleth therein? and it shall rise up wholly as a flood; and it shall be cast out and drowned, as  by  the flood of Egypt. 9 And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord GOD, that I will cause the sun to go down at noon, and I wi...

Lawmakers are very far from Nigerians-Comrade Emelieze

Image
Lawmakers in both chambers of the National Assembly and the State Houses of Assembly have long ceased to represent the electorate in Nigeria. This assertion was made by the convener of the Federal Workers Forum, Comrade Andrew Emelieze. ''For some years now, the elected representatives of Nigerians in both chambers of the National Assembly and State Houses of Assembly have stopped representing the people. They now represent their self-centered interests. Have they done enough to reverse the economic hardships giving Nigerians sleepless nights?'' ''It has been zero intervention as regards the present economic hardships confronting Nigerians. Are those in the legislature just passing time? What is the relationship between the Executive and the Legislature? The answer is the relationship is symbiotic. This is the major reason why they have enough time for frivolities and non-issues. The lawmakers are very far from their constituents and are not in touch with the pa...
