PHOTO: Azadus Spotted Alighting From a Bike
There was even a time he was driving a Navigator. Sources say things aren't the way they used to be for him. He was spotted somewhere in Isheri in Lagos alighting from a bike holding the food he probably bought.
He was as popular as Tuface, Toni Tetuila and Idris Abdulkareem then.

Sat Guru Maharaj Ji's Advice To Young Men
How do you feel hitting 65 in a country like Nigeria where life expectancy is below 50?
To put it mildly, I feel fantastic in the sense that, for the first time, several church leaders, political leaders and other prominent members of the society not only met each other but also interacted freely at the ceremony (his birthday party). I'm happy that the grace of Maharaj Ji has made us all to survive in the last 38 years of this ministry. There was nothing some people didn't do to frustrate us, especially those groups that have been tormenting the Black race for centuries. They are not happy that Maharaj Ji has espoused the true name of God. They were wondering that how can I just come like that and all of a sudden I put a stop to all what they had been doing to dupe almost everybody. I felt so good for being able to stand as the representative of God, our Creator on this earth.
From what you have just said, you claimed some pastors and top political leaders in the country were here to celebrate with you…
(Cuts in…) Yes. Many of them were here. It was not a secret. They came here to felicitate with me and also to receive knowledge, which will help them in their ministries. Some of them even expressed the wish to see me in privacy and I obliged them.
Still talking about your 65 years on earth, what was the turning point in your life? What was that point in your life where you made a 360 degree-turn and you experienced the transformation that led you to where you are today?
That was in 1975. I was in Europe to attend a course in marketing at the Institute of Marketing in London. Two years later, I heard about Sat Guru Maharaj Ji of the time saying that there was a power within us that knows everything, and that until you experience this power, you are not complete.
Are you saying that pastors use juju?
Yes. Quote me: all of them use juju. How can a pastor touch somebody and he falls down? That one is juju at work. Our people are very foolish and ignorant. How can you touch somebody and he falls down? There is something behind this.
Today, we are in a world of falsehood. And if you look at what is happening, you wouldn't blame the pastors, you would blame our law, which is lax. I said this because if some of these pastors that have been duping people had been brought to book, there would have been sanity. These pastors that are pushing people down, and are saying they are healing them, they should tell us the source of their power. If, as a pastor, you receive your power from Ifa, Ogun or Orunmila, and you are giving credit to another person, this means that you are a saboteur. You are in actual fact a murderer because you are robbing Peter to pay Paul.
Is it true, as some people have claimed, that some religious leaders often come to your headquarters here in Ibadan to consult you?
It is true. At times, they send their representatives. But I clearly remember that the General Overseer of Deeper Life Bible Church, Pastor William Kumuyi, came to see me at our Lagos headquarters in Iju, Lagos, sometime in 1987. It is a public place, he was there, and people saw him. But he went back, never to come back to fulfill his promise to come for knowledge. And without knowledge, there is no way anybody can make it.
When Pastor Kumuyi came that time, was it on a courtesy visit?
You don't go to a place where they acquire knowledge on a courtesy visit. His visit was more than a courtesy visit. But like I said, he never came back to acquire knowledge. What many people don't know is that the Creator has come down. Somebody of his calibre doesn't come here on courtesy visit, it goes beyond that. Kumuyi had come for salvation but he didn't exercise sufficient patience as he left without acquiring knowledge. There are many others that have come like that. My mission is to give light to the world, to bring people out of darkness into light. I'm the father of everybody, the entire human race.
You may then wonder, what about the White people? Are you also their father? I will say 'yes'. There was a time they were not Whites. They were Blacks then. But, suddenly, something happened many years ago, that drove them under water. And they stayed there for so long. And by the time they came out, their skin had changed. This is why you now have dichotomy between them and us. Due to the fact that they stayed for so long under the water, by the time they came out, their character had changed. This is why you see most White people being rascals, impatient, restless and erratic.
But Maharj Ji, being a loving father, made it possible for the energy in Blacks to mix up with that of the whites to give world peace. Before Maharaj Ji came, the supremacy of the white man was unshakeable. But when I came, everything changed. I'm the source of life, everybody should come close to me, and know Maharaj Ji as not only helping the Black man to realize his potentialities, but also as the power that has helped the white man. Otherwise, this world would have disappeared.
There is this controversy about your marital status. Some people claim that you are married with children while others say you are a divorcee. Which is which?
There should be no controversy. Guru Maharaj Ji has come to this planet to offer life and knowledge to people. So, anybody that receives knowledge from me is my child, a bona fide one. Those who receive knowledge from me are my children. I don't have any biological child, and I'm not married to any woman. I don't have a wife.
Why? You are 65, and …
(Cuts in…) It's like this. For any sincere and honest somebody, you find out that even if you are blessed, this is not the time for somebody to think about marriage. For me, I've never thought about marriage, and I will never do so, because there is a war going on, and the war is between light and darkness. Until the war is over, anybody who gets involved with marriage will always be in trouble. For now, I'm not thinking of marriage. The war against the forces of darkness is on and that battle must be won. Marriage can wait.
At 65, you say marriage can wait?
Yes. I have a mission. Marriage will be a distraction. I must defeat forces of darkness. Marriage is not in my agenda. This is not the time to go into marriage. I challenge anybody who says she is Maharaj Ji's wife to come out. I challenge anybody who says she has children for Maharaj Ji to come out. I don't have any biological children. My children are my followers. I'm the father of creation. So, everybody, including Christians and Muslims, I'm their father. Before I left for Europe and till I came back, I was never married. Even up till now, I'm not married to anybody. My advice to the young men of these days is that they should not get married. This is not the time to go into marriage because the situation is not conducive. However, for anybody that insists, I have no opposition. After all, some of my members are married.
Is it true, as some people claimed, that you once said that you would never die?
When one is transformed into spirituality, you no longer talk about death. Man is talking about mortality and immortality because he accepted teachings brought by the Europeans without finding out how true these teachings are. When you talk about death, it negates the principles of our existence. They say God is light, and in Him there is no darkness, and darkness can't comprehend it. So, why is death coming in?
The true name of our creator is Maharaj Ji, and with my coming, light has come. Now, the light will be guiding my followers wherever they are going, so that with the knowledge they have acquired they will not commit sin. As it was written in the Bible that the wages of sin is death, but the moment you are lifted above, you will live in the spirit, and when you live in the spirit you will have knowledge.
Since I live in the spirit, and I'm the fountain of knowledge, I'm immortal. I can't die. Why should I die physically? I can't die physically. I will not die. Even it is said in the Scripture that man is the perfect image of God. Can God die? Since I'm a perfect image of God, I can't die. Is it a sin to live till eternity? I have both the physical body and the spirit. If you look at the Scriptures, where did you see or read about people seeing dead bodies of previous masters like Moses, Elijah and others. Death means nothing to me – man is an image of the creator, so I don't believe in death.

Presidential Aide Rubbish Rumors of Marrying Actress Nkiru Sylvanus
 |
| The photo that sparked the wedding rumour |
When I read the story online this morning I called someone close to the actress to confirm and he said the story was 100% false, so I left it alone. Nkiru, according to the report, married the Senior Special Assistant to the Vice President on Media and Publicity, Mallam Umar Sani, as second wife just a week after she was released by kidnappers. The report also claimed it was Mallam Sani that paid the N8million ransom money. Another false report.
Mallam Umar Sani has reacted to the report, calling it ridiculous and a figment of the writer’s imagination.
“The report is very funny. How can you marry somebody you have not seen for over three months? The last time I saw her was in September so how can a marriage take place when the subject matters have not seen each other? I have not married Nkiru Sylvanus and if a wedding of such took place, people should be able to name the place, date and time. It is not true”. He told reporters at the Presidential Villa in Abuja this evening..

Multi-billionaire business woman, Folorunsho Alakija's aide arrested for fraud
Vincent Ayewah (pictured above centre) conspired with six others to allegedly steal cheques and withdraw money meant for the beneficiaries of the Rose of Sharon Foundation. Mrs Alakija, who petitioned the EFCC, alleged that Vincent forged cheques of the foundation's Stanbic IBTC Bank Account and got his sister Miss Florence Ayewah (pictured above, right) and their friends to cash the forged cheques by presenting them with fake identity cards.
In the course of investigation, it was discovered that Vincent used his position to enlist his family members as beneficiaries of the scheme. Florence was arrested at a Stanbic IBTC bank in Lagos while trying to cash a forged Cheque in the sum of N97, 000 in favour of one Ms Olubunmi Juliana Ishola. Besides Vincent and Florence, six other members of the syndicate involved in the scam and who have also been arrested are: George Ehizibolo, Onwuwa David, Okonkwo Chikadibia, Emmanuel Ayewah, Florence Ayewah and Chinyere Awanah.
The suspects will be arraigned in court soon.
Pastor Chris Okotie Preaches Sermon In Support Of Tattoos And Plastic Surgery
He said a lot of people misinterpret a scripture in the bible which is supposedly against body art and enhancement. He said getting tattoos and plastic surgery is an individual decision and has nothing to do with God.
This sermon has indeed generated a lot of criticisms from christians. What is your opinion on this???

Weak Students, Politician V.C.!!! What could be worse??
Now it's very obvious. U.I students are very weak. It's only on the Student Union page we see them shouting and making noises about #protest #aluta #injustice and so on. The Town Hall meeting is a perfect example of a waste of time. Students couldn't stand their grounds. Out of fear of what?? SDC?? The student union isn't even strong enough. We barely know what they stand for. Though Edosa (The S.U President) started on a good note...but that was it! We all succumbed to the politics of our V.C. I cant even remember everything discussed...but the important one is about banning of cooking in rooms. He claimed a kitchenette will be on each floor...where one or two electric cookers will be provided...meant for light cooking. A fridge will also be there. No student is to bring any form of cooking materials into the halls of residence. Not even kerosene stoves!! They claimed eateries will be provided where students can go to buy food. How can the school be able to feed almost 22,000 students thrice a day...on a daily basis. Let's even say 10,000 students. Is that feasible? How sensible is that?? Even the eateries, where are they now? And school has resumed! Yet, some will still go to the page and lament...something we could all have done collectively. Now, to the V.C and his associates, they've won! I'm even sure the V.C will be saying this in his mind, "These students are weak o...if i hear say i accept all these in my own days". That's what you all have brought upon yourselves, and i do hope you all can live with it. For any struggle to be won, #Determination is the key!!
