I Was Never Called to be a Pastor - Nosa

Chocolate City gospel artiste, Nosakhare Omoregie, popularly known as Nosa, is one singer who is very blunt whenever he sees somethings not going the right part and as a messenger of God through music, he believes that his music should be able to touch lives.
Nosa while speaking about his foray into God’s ministry disclosed that he was a Pastor for 12 years until he stepped aside in 2015 for a while.
He confessed that he was not called by God to be a Pastor but a personal desire which he developed to work for his creator.
According to the singer, “I was dedicated to church. I was a pastor for 12 years, from 2003 till this year. I just left that ministry and I would still continue. I didn’t get that ceremonial call to be a pastor, but God put that desire to work for him inside of me.”

Robbers Force LAUTECH Students To Sex One Another

Within few minutes of settling down in a secluded place – off the campus – where Bimbola (not real name) agreed to narrate her ordeal to our correspondent last Monday, the dry white handkerchief she was holding became soaked with tears.

She tried to stop weeping for a while, but she couldn’t resist it, and the more her friend – who followed her to the meeting – tried to calm her down, the more she struggled to hold back her tears. What she passed through in August was painful, unimaginable and dehumanising. In fact, she might not be able to forget that night in her life.

Ever since the incident, everything about her has changed, according to her friend.

In the night of August 13, 2015 – around 12 midnight – she said she and her roommate had returned from a night reading class in preparation for their forthcoming exam in November, locked their room and were about to sleep when they heard their hostel mates jamming their doors, screaming and walking up the hostel stairs.

Buhari made his stance known interview he granted the Nigerian Television Authority and Channels TV shortly before he left India..

Buhari said,
 “There was no reduction (of ministers) to 36. What the constitution says, and we cannot work outside the constitution, is that there must be a cabinet representative from each state.Yes, there used to be 42 ministers, I think we will be lucky if we can have half of that now because we cannot afford it.Others may not be substantive ministers but they will sit in the cabinet because that is what the constitution says and we cannot operate outside the constitution.”
