See The Witch That Was Caught In A Pastor's House


Strange things are happening in this wicked world. When those you love are visiting spiritualists because of you, then you should expect worst from those who have classified themselves as your enemy. This woman was caught live in a pastor's house. Doing what? See details below:

This woman who can only be identified by her surname, Mahlalela, from Ebatsakatsini in South Africa was caught red handed by a "strong" child in the wee hours of the morning, in the kitchen, defecating in a bucket inside the house of the Word of God Church leader, Pastor Nsingwane.
The man of the cloth says the way the woman got into his house remains a mystery as the doors and windows in the house were all shut and locked. When asked by the police what she was doing in the house, Mahlalela confessed that she was at the house to perform evil deeds on the family but she was caught, changing her earlier statement in which she’d claimed to be part of a team which works for a certain master and that she fell off the rope she was holding on to when she and her 15 collegues were flying. 
“We use a rope to fly and I was sitting at the back when I fell off,” she said. 
The village of Ebatsakatsini is a place created for people evicted from any of the 54 villages around Nkomazi after being accused of witchcraft.

6,000 Workers Might Loose Their Job Should There be an Attack on Our Facilities – MTN Nigeria



MTN Nigeria on Monday warned that should there be attacks on its facilities, it might be forced to close shop and 99 per cent of its over 6,000 workforce in the country, who are Nigerians, would be thrown into the labour market.

It also said that calls for the boycott of its services were unjustified as such an action would affect its support chain, which could cause another 500,000 Nigerians to lose their means of livelihood.
According to the Corporate Service Executive, MTN Nigeria, Mr. Wale Goodluck, there are only 12 expatriates working for the company in the country, compared to a workforce of 6,000 Nigerians.

Goodluck said, “So, if people go ahead with their threats to attack our facilities, what that means is that we may be forced to close down the business in Nigeria and about 6,000 Nigerians that make up 99 per cent of our workforce will be unemployed.
“Then, when you look at our support chain, we have about 500,000 Nigerians gainfully employed. So, boycotting our services simply means destroying so many other Nigerian businesses and making over 500,000 other Nigerians to lose their jobs.

“This business supports a lot of businesses across the length and breadth of Nigeria. Many of the businesses that are affiliated to South Africa are in the retail space, supporting the growth of Nigeria and employing so many Nigerians.”
He noted that the company had spent in excess of $15bn on capital expenditure growing the telecommunications business in Nigeria.
“We see no revenge of Xenophobia and we commend the role the Nigerian High Commissioner in South Africa has played; at least there has been no fatality on the part of any Nigerian,” Goodluck added.

See Interesting Experience of Man who Trekked from Lagos to Abuja to Celebrate Gen Buhari Victory

The man (Suleiman Hashimu) who trekked from Lagos to Abuja to celebrate President-elect's Buhari narrated the high and low of his history making adventure. 

Sulieman Hashimu told Daily post that he had gone to get a police report at Ibadan to allow for an unimpeded journey, but that as he could not wait for the processes to be completed, the divisional police officer (DPO) gave him his phone number.


Hashimu said that in Ilorin, people accompanied him for several miles until he stopped at Oloru, where he received much hospitality in Jebba. He said unlike other villages, he met people who had heard of him.
He further said that about 20 people set off with him from Jebba and after some miles, 18 turned back, but the other two were more strong-minded and followed him.
The Traveler narrated how they encountered armed robbers close to Mokwa, but that, fortunately, he had already met one of them in Jebba and the would-be robber ended up giving him N200 for ‘pure’ (sachet) water.
Hashimu said he continued his trip from Mokwa to Kudu, then from Kutigi to Bida, and then to Suleja, after which arrived in Abuja.
Upon his arrival in Abuja on Monday, many residents were already waiting to receive him.When residents of FCT saw him, the chorus of Sai Buhari rented the air.

Bobbi Kristina Brown Breathing on Her Own, Off Life Support: Family Says

Over the weekend, Bobby Brown claimed that Bobbi Kristina Brown was awake after nearly three months in a coma.

His claim was later supported by his sister Tina Brown, who posted on Facebook that Bobbi Kristina was off of life support and showing signs of recovery.

Several members of Bobbi's family quickly countered that the Browns were lying, and that Bobbi was still in a coma, still on life support, and still unlikely to ever regain consciousness.

Now, the Brown family is changing its tune and admitting that Bobbi has been removed from the ventilators that were breathing for her and is in marginally better condition than she was a few weeks ago.
However, they caution that it is still unlikely that she will ever fully recover or be able to survive outside of a hospital setting.

"According to doctors, she's breathing on her own," a Brown family source tells TMZ.

The insider adds that Bobbi Kristina's tracheotomy tube must stay in place and that the 22-year-old will likely remain in a semi-vegetative state for the rest of her life.

Yesterday, Bobbi's grandmother, Cissy Houston stated that Bobbi has irreversible brain damage and that she is "saddened" by the idea of anyone living "a lifetime" in such a condition.

Insiders say the Brown and Houston families are currently clashing over how to proceed and what long-term care options to pursue, now that it looks as though Bobbi Kristina may pull through.
