adedehinbo:
is nscia an independent body?

Yes it is, just like CAN they are nongovernmental organizations. CAC cannot close Churches Accounts with legal backing

hahaha. wow i love the last part of the video where he gave the warning in tongues... that just made my day.. hahaha

The government never deals with the insecurity in the land, youth unemployment, chinese debts and all other debts now is the churches that is their problem. This is a government that lacks focus and has hidden agenda that is obvious to all.

adedehinbo:
I am a Muslim but if this proposed plan is true,then it means this govt has a hidden agenda against christains in Nigeria

Do you know why the government threatened that way? Have you read the sins of Winners Chapel against the law? Have you not been instructed in Quran that you should verify things before making a judgement?

Offpoint:
I don't know what transpired before the circular or threat was sent, so I won't make comment blindly because it involves my religion.


I'm more concerned about the part where no court can reverse it.. How low has the country sunk?

I think CAMA document should explain better why no court can invalidate a clause !

You remember what happened as regards FRC - financial reporting Council on how leadership of the church should be run . Let's see how these pans out.

In as much as I have been very disappointed with the way churches were neutral at the plight of the Nigerian masses that have been showing into it.

This is wrong. It is a way of telling them. If you criticise us, we will block your account and deregister you.

Let this be a lesson to all. When you keep silent as your neighbor is being subdued, know yours will soon come and nobody will speak up

NO MORE MONEY FOR DADDY

TIME TO GROUND THE PRIVATE JETS

SOMEBODY TELL PAPA TO GO AND BUY NIKES. ITS TIME TO START TREKKING LIKE A REAL NIGGA ON THESE MEAN LAGOS STREETZ

He should relocate to farm work in Oro or retire as a pensioner in UK.

bsalawu:
I wonder what their agenda is? Una never run government well, na Church remain abi?

This is a welcome development .The customs should be watchful of smuggling of cash in the car tyres to benin republic,Cameroon.

Nigerians are not practising religion,they are under religious cultism run by cultist both Islam and Christianity which is creating poverty in the land.The govt should close mosques accounts too.

The people who brought Islam and Christianity to us live in paradise while the africans who received these religions live in Hellfire on earth.

The religious cult institutions in Nigeria has outlived its usefulness,all that is left is noise,extortion,immorality,abuse of depressed women,hpnotism,terrorism,zombies,human and drug trafficking and slavery.

The Govt must set up Nigerian charity commission to oversee ,charities use any money for the benefit of the less priviledge in the society and not to buy exotic cars or book hotel rooms for one year.

We are gradually becoming a highly policed state, the saddest thing about this, is that the government is not doing enough to flush out criminal but can flex muscle with law abiding citizens.
Has the government explained to the churches in the form of stakeholder interaction what they intend to achieve with this regulations. We agree that some regulations should be in place to weed out scammers parading as MOG and to properly seperate the church from other businesses. Any reasonable government will do well not to mess around with religion without a sincere heart or intention.

Dshocker:
All this pastors are just after their money.

The way they all fought against daddy freeze because he spoke about tithing sadden my heart,instead of them to channel that energy in convincing their members to vote rightly during election,so the situation of things can in Nigeria.

What other options do their members have?, the situation of things will never be better because the mindset of an average Nigerian is the same...
Ia it Atiku that would have been better?

The truth is always bitter so anyone saying the truth must be hated and that is why they hated Daddy Freeze....good thing is people are now seeing the truth in what he was saying......

When "demons" are in authority (Aso rock) there is nothing they will not do against the church but am rest assured they will know that Nigeria belongs to Jesus.

Nonsense

and because others closed their mouths, he should download the same?

The only reason I support something similar is because of the circumstances that lead to Asimolowo having to leave UK to relocate to Nigeria.
Churches over there are registered with the UK Charities Commission so they don't have to pay tax amongst other things.
As a result the UK Government insists on a clear separation between Church and Leader/Owner whatever, something that is needed in Naija.
When KICC's accounts were audited, it was found out that the church were buying properties and registering them in Asimolowo's name.
Obviously no one at the church would have been able to complain as Asimolowo had overall power and it was a good thing that the UK Charities Commission could do something about it.
I think he was sanctioned and the Charities Commission appointed someone to run the church accounts for a while.
It is those kind of excesses that I am in favour of the government intervening in.

Sysdatek:
When did church accounts become govt business

The church should just move their idle funds into cryptoc urrency

Or wire it abroad

The church is under government and the government have every right to regulate it....

But why is CAC Alhaji going after churches when muslim clerics can say anything including asking for death by stoning and no one says anything?

If they try that they're accelerating the breakup of Nigeria. And the north won't win another Civil War because not only igbos will fight.. Alot of Nigerian Christians are being held in check by these same pastors. Imagine if daddy GO, Oyedepo, Oyakhilome, and others ask their members to resist the government by any means necessary

You have a valid point there.

They have touched him where it hurts. Time for another round of empty threats and chest beating.

It's only a matter of time. By the time they're done testing their powers on the heavy weights like Oyedepo, Adeboye, Etc. Featherlight ones like you and I will be a walkover.

Feather still get lil weight compared to mosquito that you are

Ogun State government once shut Canaan Land gates and heaven did not fall, instead the Bishop begged.

When, lie kee u there

Even the plan to freeze the account does not suprise me. What does is where the fool said no court can invalidate it. Is that how irrelevant the law court have become ?

So the law court has no power to checkmate the excesses of each arms of the government no more ?

I am beginning to see why IPOB members call our country a zoo.

Lawlessness everywhere from the president himself down to the councilors. No wonder little african countries are now flexing their muscles in our before.

Daddysidhan:
idiotic statement, so you mean an average corporate organisation that has been doing this for the politicians since time immemorial are what? How many of those organisation account has been taken over by the government" you people are scared of the church because of buhari Islamisation agenda

Hand yourself with your balls... That's my view

Religious cultism is the number problem in Nigeria not politicians.

Shut there ! what sins are you talking about ?

You talk about verifying things. have you verified about the 'said sins' you heard winners commited ? your statema reeks of hypocrisy.

Are you that gullible that you believe whatever you are being told without finding our independently ? but you come here chanting verification.

Flexvilla:

Nothing will happen i can guarantee that.Even European churches and mosques bow to the Govt’s will not against.

J111333:
Imagine the audacity.
Well anybody can disrespect Christianity now after all, the pastor in Aso Villa is just a statue.

Aswr! Big Statue!

Any Fulani fool given a parastatal to head can make a statement no President dares to make? They are not tired of looting public funds, now their eyes are on church funds.

That CAC man should be warned. A proverb says, a naked man does not put his hand in his pocket. He should be warned.

Copied:

If you guys know the amount of things hidden in that 604 pages of the new Companies Act,you'll start weeping.The Corporate Affairs Commisson has just been made a monster. You see that NIPOST regulation fixing N20m as licensing fee?That is small stuff compared to what CAC will do.

The sector that will be worst hit are the churches, mosques, charity organisations, schools, NGOs etc. The CAC can now arbitrarily remove & replace the "owners" or leaders of these organisations. Also, CAC can convert/take over the monies in their bank accounts.

Every sector will be hit. In the old Act, small fees were clearly prescribed for certain things.E.g, the Act may say if you fail to do XYZ, you'll pay N50 for each day of default.The new Act has removed all those meagre fees & gives CAC power to make regulations prescribing fees.

Online vendors who operate under a business name other than their government names, are now risking conviction in court if they don't register their business names with CAC.

The most damning revelation from my review so far is that, a private organisation has been written into the new Companies Act & has been emboldened through the back door to:
1. generate revenue; and
2. regulate an aspect of law practice, accountancy etc.

The private org is Business Recovery and Insolvency Practitioners of Nigeria (BRIPAN). S. 705(C) of the new CAMA requires that to qualify as insolvency practitioner,you must be a lawyer/accountant AND a member of BRIPAN. On BRIPAN website, membership fee ranges from N90k - N250k.

BRIPAN is not a chartered institute (like ICAN, ICSAN, CIPM) or a statutory body. It is a private association formed by private citizens. Remember how Lagosians fought against Alpha Beta being written into the Lagos Land Use Charge Law (albeit unsuccessfuly)?

In similar fashion, some people have successfully slipped in BRIPAN (a private organisation) into an Act of the National Assembly and the President has signed it into law. How did our law makers not see this while deliberations on the bill were ongoing?

Another curious provision in the new CAMA is S. 851 which empowers CAC to now act as a 'court' or tribunal of some sort. So if CAC imposes fees on your small business, before you can go to court to challenge those fees, you must first appear before CAC panel & make your case.

The panel is made up of guess who? Registrar General of CAC, 5 officers of CAC & someone from the Ministry of Trade & Investment, which is the Ministry overseeing the CAC. In effect, the CAC is now a Prosecutor & Judge in its own case. Goodluck if you have a case against CAC.

One of the narratives touted by the govt regarding this new law is that, it'll aid ease of doing business. While I agree that on face value,some sections of the law will aid this,I am simply drawing our attention to other sections which will become a clog & make things difficult.

Another narrative is that, with this new law, you wont need a lawyer to either incorporate a business or carry out many post incorporation activities as you can do them yourself. Truth is,many lawyers will grapple with this new law.If this is so,what are your chances as a layman?

For me all this talk are falling on deaf ears. So many people are tired and wants to come out to protest but are scared to do so. Many will never protest under sowore revolution now platform cos he is also part of the cause of this problem. But I bet u if religious leaders lead the way I swear no one will be scared. Let oyedepo, abioye, adeboye,oyakilome, pastor kuka, tb Joshua and others come out. Enough of all this preaching in churches Let them be on the fore front in eagle square and see if people don't rally round them. For me that's the only solution to our problem. Its not about raining causes on them on social media.

Some think they have absolute power because they are in authority today but they should also recognize that God holds the absolute authority and power over man and His creature. We saw that practical in late Abacha's life. Let this government trend softly or else they will be swept to hell. No man has ever been able to withstand the wrath and anger of the Almighty God. Every hidden agenda against the church is a hidden agenda against God which will never see the light of the day and which will never leave the the perpetrators without divine punishment.
