LIVE PERFORMANCE : Nollywood Actress Camilla Mberekpe Confesses To Being A Witch On TB Joshua's TV (SEE PHOTOS HERE)

Nollywood Actress Camilla Mberekpe Confesses To Being A Witch On TB Joshua's TV
Nollywood veteran actress, Camilla Mberekpe, popularly known as Mama Eko, was at the Synagogue Church of All Nations, SCOAN, on Sunday to seek deliverance from a demon that has possessed and tormented her for many years.
As the face of the light-skinned actress was beamed on television screens in Prophet T.B. Joshua’s church, many worshippers stood in awe and screamed: “Jesus, an actress too!”
Prophet T.B. Joshua, who did not seem to know the actress, was a bit confused and did not understand why the sudden noise in the church as he stood before her.
“I don’t know you,” he said as he laid hands on her. He asked her to wait behind for the exorcism in the night.
The church and deliverance service was broadcast live to millions of viewers on Emmanuel Television, the Synagogue Church’s cable network aired on several continents.
Later in the night, one of the wise men in Synagogue church began to exorcise the demons from the actress and in the process, she began to talk, although the exorcist later said it was the demon in her talking through her.
She began to confess that her mission is to destroy a very good actress who prays and worships God a lot.
“I don’t want her to go up. She’s a very good actress. I want to destroy her,” she said in a bizarre and demonic tone.
“I destroyed her marriage because she refused to worship me. I hate it when she prays. She is a prayer warrior,” she said.
As hands were laid on the actress and the demon was ordered in the name of Jesus to leave her body, she fell to the ground.
Her scarf fell off her hair and she began to roll on the floor, screaming and apparently resisting the power of God.
The scene appeared bizarre to many worshippers and could shock millions of viewers not used to occultic or spiritual warfare.
At a time, it seemed as if the actress, who has acted in more than 38 home video movies, including many roles as wicked mother and step-mother, was in a Nollywood scene and acting.
The expression on her face appeared funny, serious and dangerous.
Ngozi Mberekpe is a very versatile actress who speaks English and French fluently as well as her Igbo native language.
She has been in Nollywood since the early days of the industry and she is often cast as  mother or wicked step-mother.
Another plus for Camilla is the fact that she is also fluent in French, as demonstrated in the movie “Bonjour”.
She has featured in numerous roles in movies such as Tea or Coffee, Holy Anger, Illegal Brother, Sins Of the Heart and  Beloved among others.
The deliverance session was so striking that the four buses purchased by Synagogue Church to cater for the elderly in their church, which was introduced yesterday, received little attention after the service as many people kept talking about the Nollywood actress.
The four buses, T.B. Joshua said, would convey the elderly to church on Sunday and take them back home after the service.
“If you want to reach old age, you must care for the elderly,” T.B. Joshua said in her sermon, adding that many have abandoned their aged parents and grandparents in villages and are enjoying life alone in Lagos.

SO IT HAS COME TO THIS? : Governor Akapbio Wants Senator He Rigged Into Office Dead- PREMIUM TIMES

Governor Godswill Akpabio
 
By Premium Times
The battle for 2015 in Akwa Ibom has assumed a deadly dimension. An Akwa Ibom state senator, Aloysius Eyok, has accused the state governor, Godswill Akpabio, of threatening to assassinate him within a week for daring to insist on retaining his senatorial seat which Mr. Akpabio has declared interest for in 2015.
The senator said at a news briefing weekend that Mr. Akpabio has unleashed his “hit squad” on him, with threatening text messages advising him to renounce his ambition for another term, or be targeted in seven days.
“I want the governor to tell Nigerians and the international community if there is anything wrong in any man aspiring to contest for an office,” Mr. Etok asked.
“Is that enough for the governor to instruct the council chairmen to say that if I don’t withdraw from the contest, that they will recall me? He asked the state of assembly to pass resolution that they will recall me, to the extent that members of the house of assembly came on television to insult and malign me.”
“Not only that, the governor has now loosen his hit squad, including what I have on this phone some text messages that if I don’t retract the statement that I will contest election, after seven days, I will see what they will do.”
He said the governor also instructed “different groups that if I don’t retract the statement within seven days, I will either be dead to stop me or alive to retract the statement.”
Mr. Akpabio dismissed the allegations as “paranoid, deceitful, baseless and mere hallucinations that serves no purpose whatsoever.”
A statement by the state commissioner for information, Anieka Umanah, said Mr. Akpabio is a “God fearing and peace loving man, and has never and will never contemplate evil against anyone let alone, his brother and friend, Senator Aloysius Etok”.
“For the avoidance of doubt, Governor Akpabio has no hit squad and has never been after the life of any citizen of the state,”Mr. Umanah said.
Mr. Etok came to limelight weeks ago after the embattled governor openly confessed to rigging party polls to allow Mr. Etok emerge as the winner for the senatorial seat, sparking national outrage.
Mr. Etok denied the claim, and said he emerged through a transparent process. In subsequent media interviews, Mr. Akpabio, claimed he was misquoted and that the media frenzy over the story, first published by PREMIUM TIMES, was politically motivated.
The governor later declared his interest to assume a senatorial seat after his term in 2015, a seat currently occupied by Mr. Etok, in what appears to be the actual motive for his video declaration.
Mr. Etok said while the controversy over the claimed rigging had been resolved, the governor repeatedly told fellow senators that they were his future colleagues; and on one occasion, he mockingly said Mr. Etok will serve as his campaign manager to the senate.
The senator said he only responded at an interview recently by saying the governor never consulted him on his ambition, and that he will never relinquish same.
“The producer then asked what I want to do now that the governor wants to take my position. I told him that the governor has not consulted me,” he said referring to an interview he granted in Akwa Ibom state. “However, if am sitting on a seat and somebody is coming to remove me without consultation, I will hold on to the seat even if the seat want to break.”
Since making the comments, a faction of the state House of Assembly passed a resolution deriding Mr. Etok, and warning him that only an Akpabio candidature to the senate will be supported tin 2015.
“I want the Nigerian public to say which of these statement was an insult to the governor that he and his people said I have dared the governor for saying I will contest election.”
“That if what happened during my second term struggle that as soon as they knew I was going to contest, my wife was kidnapped. After the release of my wife, my mother in law was kidnapped.
“When she was released, she died because of the torture she received in the hands of the kidnappers. As a result of that my father in law died out the heart break. Therefore, I also want Nigerians to ask Governor Akpabio what I have done to him. I have not done anything to him. I want all of you, like I am going to send a petition to the President, to ask Governor Akpabio to let me be. That his hit squad which he has resurrected should let me live. If anything happens to me, I want the world to know that Governor Akpabio is after my life.”

"MY STORY" ... BY GOV AMAECHI : Amaechi: The Grounding of My Aircraft .... Iyofor: Premeditated actions of NAMA


His words: “We had set out from Abuja in the morning of Friday April 26, 2013 to Imo State to attend the funeral rites of the younger sister of the Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives Emeka Ihedioha. Our plane, a Bombardier jet owned by the Rivers State Government, landed at the airport in Owerri. It was in Owerri that the pilot of our plane was first tipped off that there was a plot to ground our plane in Owerri that Friday.

'Fortunately for us, we took off from Owerri airport and arrived at Akure airport en-route to Ekiti for the burial of the Deputy Governor of Ekiti State Mrs. Funmilayo Olayinka without any incident. On the flight to Akure was the Speaker of the House of Representatives Aminu Tambuwal who we met in Imo State and was also heading to Ekiti for the burial of Mrs Olayinka. Also on the flight were the Governor of Rivers State, Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi, the Director-General Nigeria Governors Forum (NGF) Asishana Bayo Okauru, Kalabari prince and politician Prince Tonye Princewill, some aides of the Governor and me.

'Once our party left the Akure airport for Ekiti, our pilot went to the airport offices to make statutory airport payments and fees, file his flight plan and declare his manifest. After filing his fight plan and declaring his manifest, our pilot was told to go and see the Controller. The Controller bluntly told him that the Rivers Government plane would not be allowed to leave the airport. In other words, the plane had been grounded! He said that the plane should have been grounded in Owerri.

The Controller on duty at the airport in Akure mentioned some vague issues relating to the customs papers of the plane, which has been flying in Nigeria for many months? That didn’t make any sense to the pilot. He enquired on whose orders the plane was being grounded, he was told that it was the Managing Director of the Nigerian Airspace Management Authority (NAMA). And that he should reach the NAMA MD.

By the time our party, which now included four House of Representatives members- Mohammed Sani Idris Kutigi, Daniel Rayeineju, Idris Ahmed Wase and Ifedayo Abegunde- returned to the Akure airport, there was confusion everywhere. Speaker Tambuwal, the members and Governor Amaechi and his team, were all stranded at the airport. The plane that brought Speaker Tambuwal and Governor Amaechi to Akure could not leave Akure airport. Calls were being made as these two democratically elected leaders, furious and perplexed, tried to fathom what could have caused this monumental embarrassment to them and their offices.

'After trying fruitlessly for some time to get the plane released, Speaker Tambuwal then offered to fly Governor Amaechi to Port Harcourt with the plane(another small aircraft) that brought the other four Honourable members to Akure. To accommodate Governor Amaechi in the small aircraft, one of the House of Representatives members offered his seat to the Governor .

'The pilot of the Rivers State Government plane was already locking up the aircraft for us to leave for Lagos by road when a call eventually came through that the plane could now leave. The Controller received a directive to allow the plane fly out of Akure. The decision to let us go, we later learnt, was due to the pressure brought on the aviation authorities by Speaker Tambuwal.

'It is indeed most shameful and ludicrous that NAMA and the Aviation authorities are now saying that they grounded the Rivers State Government plane because the pilot did not file a flight plan and declare a manifest. That’s a blatant lie. A big fat one at that. The pilot filed the flight plan and manifest, and paid all the statutory airport fees and charges shortly after the plane arrived at the Akure airport in the afternoon. If the pilot filed a flight plan and manifest at the airports in Abuja and Owerri, where he flew from same day, why won’t he then do the same in Akure? It is instructive to note that all through the traumatic time we spent in Akure, no official of the airport or aviation staff came to tell Governor Amaechi that we were grounded because our pilot “refused to file a flight plan and manifest.” All they kept saying was that they were just obeying directives, it was beyond them and we should call Abuja. Speaker Tambuwal and the other four members of the House of Representatives are living witnesses to that charade.

NAMA and the aviation authorities should explain to Nigerians why an aircraft owned by a State government, that flew the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Hon. Aminu Tambuwal and a democratically elected Governor of a State who also the chairman of the Nigeria Governors’ Forum, would be grounded at an airport for no just cause? “ Iyofor, contacted last night to react to the no fly order said there was nothing new to say for now. Mr. Iyofor is the Chief Press Secretary of the Rivers State Governor

ON THAT STELLA DAMASUS MARRIAGE : Actress Doris Simeon speaks on Daniel Ademinokan’s secret wedding to Stella Damasus ... By Stella Dimokokorkus


Beautiful Actress Doris Simeon is currently the centre of attention as her ex hubby Daniel Ademinokan has supposedly married another controversial Actress Stella Damasus.
In a recent interview with Popular celebrity blogger, Stella Dimokokorkus, Doris reacted indifferently to the  whole issue.
Here’s Stella Dimokokorkus’ account:
“I decided to call Doris today to hear what she can tell me as regards everything that has happened. Doris told me in a voice which sounded full of pain that at this time she just wants to concentrate on her work and forget about what has happened because ”It has already happened…….”
She kept saying ”No comment”……The fifth..
Doris stood her ground on not wanting to talk or exchange words with anyone and I respect her stand.
I told her ”Doris,you have a lot of support right now,why don’t you talk,your fans want to know so much….”
Doris begged for privacy at this time and I understood and let her be.
Doris Simeon has a son with ex hubby Daniel and I guess she is trying to keep it clean for her son’s sake.
When Doris and Daniel were married, I used to tell Daniel they were the best couple in town,their love was so plain to see.I don’t know what went wrong.I don’t know how or when Stella Damasus came into the picture and I am yet to confirm that they have indeed Married.
I don’t know how or when Stella and Daniel met and started dating but I still think Doris needs to paint the real picture of what happened to help others going through similar situation and too embarrassed to talk out……those too ashamed to let anyone know.”
Oh well!

NOLLYWOOD ACTRESS JENNIFER ELIOGU SPEAKS ABOUT HER MARRIAGE : Why I left my husband in Switzerland – actress Jennifer Eliogu

Jennifer Eliogu is one of the numbers of stars who are engaged in inter-continental marriages.
In a recent interview, she reveals;
“As I told you – my husband is based in Switzerland, and after some years there, we reached the painful but practical decision that I should move back to Nigeria to continue my career in acting. I do not have problems with an inter-continental marriage, but in my own case, I did not want to be a full time house wife.
“My husband is very comfortable with my decision, and it has not affected our marriage in any way. Yes, as with most marriages, we have had our fair share of challenges, but overall, my husband is the best man I could ever aspire to have and seven years after we got married, the flame of passion remains the same.”
On the rumour that marriage has crashed, she looked bewildered and replied,“It is not true. We are still married, but I have already told you we have challenges and we are working around those challenges.”

BAGA ON MY MIND: A SELF INFLICTED TRAGEDY ... What we saw in Baga, by military team (THE TRUTH AT LAST)

What we saw in Baga, by military team
The military mission sent to Baga, the border town 180 kilometres north of Maiduguri, the Borno State capital, has discovered that the fundamentalist Boko Haram sect has an operational base in the town.
The team may turn in its report today.
Chief of Defence Staff Admiral Ibrahim Ola Sa’ad is billed to receive the report from the team, led by the Chief of Training and Operations, Defence Headquarters, Maj.-Gen. Lawrence Ngubane.
Besides the confirmation of a “well-established” Boko Haram base, the team also uncovered nine fresh graves, contrary to the 228 graves counted by Senator Maina Maaji, who is representing Borno North Senatorial District.
The submission of the report is without prejudice to other security reports or any other report on the massacre in Baga.
But it was gathered that the military high command has decided that the troops of the Multinational Joint Task Force (MJTF) will remain in Baga to ward off insurgency in the area.
A source, who spoke in confidence, said: “When we got to Baga, we interacted with the Local Government Chairman for Kukawa Local Government Area, Alhaji Kone, the District Head of Baga, Alhaji Babagana Zanna, aid workers and residents.
“The first thing we discovered was that Boko Haram has a well-established military base in Baga, and they have been in total control of the place. There was no corner in the town that we did not visit.
“In fact, when the sect clashed with the MNTF troops, they set a part of the base on fire. We were still able to recover some arms and ammunition from the place.
“This discovery has proven assumptions wrong that Baga is not a terrorist enclave. It is no doubt a fishing town but with a heavy presence of insurgents.
“Boko Haram has taken over the town in such manner that most of the locals were afraid to talk because of reprisals from the sect. They said each time they got information and leaked it, Boko Haram would deal with them.
“So, Baga is an entrenched base for Boko Haram. It is more like an entry point to Northern part for the insurgents.”
Asked about the conflicting figures on the death toll, the source said: “When we met with the local government chairman, he said he was not in town when the incident took place. The district head also told us that he had not been briefed.
“The team also moved round for two days and discovered only ‘nine’ fresh graves. Up till now, no mass grave was sighted.
“At a point, the team asked the locals if there was any mass grave; they said it is rare for Muslims to have mass graves as they do not like to lump corpses together.
“We want those who have counted 185 or 238 graves to also come up with empirical evidence of such. We went round, filmed the town and took photographs.
“At the end, the President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces will have all reports, whether from the military or civilians and do analysis to draw a conclusion. The state government also has its own report.
“The fact-finding team may submit its report to the CDS on Monday (today) in line with the scope of its assignment.
“What is painful is that the situation in Baga was not the way it is painted before the international community.”
On the likelihood of the MJTF troops pulling out of Baga, the highly-placed source said: “The troops will remain in the town unless we want the sect to overrun Borno State.”
