Dear Ex-Boyfriend, This will be the last letter I write to you. As the year draws to a close, I am drawing many things to a close in my life too. Last night I was thinking about all that’s behind me and also all that’s in front of me when it dawned on me that Read More…
Psalm 9:9-10 As we are within a few hours of the start of the New Year 2025, I consider that, in light of our experience in 2024, our greatest need in 2025 would be peace and protection. 2024 has been a year in which the level of oppression of the masses of our people by Read More…

1 Kings 8:54-63; Matthew 6:25-34 We have gathered here today (3 December 2003) to dedicate the new Administrative and Education buildings to God. God saw it fit to allow us to occupy this premises, 47/49, Olufemi Road, Surulere, Lagos, in August 1992, after we had met, first in a home and then in a rented Read More…
Everything that has a beginning must have an end. For every hello, there will eventually be a goodbye which in its turn contains the seeds for another cry of welcome. There is a lesson to be learnt in the fall of any empire or kingdom or dynasty. Every dictator looks unconquerable until Father Time ticks Read More…
