Ekiti APC youths disown chairman over attack on Adeboye

-


Some youths in the Ekiti State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has apoligised to the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye over some comments credited to the Chairman of the party, Mr. Jide Awe.

According to the Convener of the group, Mr Tope Ogunkuade and Secretary, Mr. Tunji Adeleye, Awe lacked the mandate of the party to make such derogatory statement against Adeboye whom they described as a revered man of God.

Awe had in a statement issued recently insinuated that Adeboye may have collected bribe from Governor Ayodele Fayose to declare support for him.

Faulting the locus of Awe to make the statement, the youths wrote that, “We wish to state that in saner climes, he (Jide Awe) will not even be parading himself as Chairman of any political party.

“Most importantly, we cannot join anyone in rebutting the highly offensive statement made against a revered man of God like Pastor Adeboye and the entire RCCG, because when the so-called State Exco of the APC being led by Chief Jide Awe did the same against the Osun State Governor, Alhaji Rauf Aregbesola, simply because he visited Governor Fayose and made positive comments about the governor, we frown at it.

“Also, it was this same Jide Awe led Exco that ridiculed our Vice President, Prof Yemi Osinbajo, by shunning the meeting he held with party leaders simply because he chose to hold the meeting in the Ado Ekiti residence of Senator Babafemi Ojudu.”

On the way forward for the party in the state, they wrote, “We are therefore not surprised that such an offensive statement can come from Chief Jide Awe, and any member of our party that want to defend him should first ask why he has been occupying the same party secretariat as State Chairman since 2006!”

“It is therefore on this note that we, as responsible and progressive youths of the APC in Ekiti State wish to dissociate ourselves from this abusive comments made against Pastor Adeboye by Chief Jide Awe and his bunch of impostors still masquerading as State Exco of our party. They do not speak for us.”

How Technology Is Killing Eye Contact

    Christen had an alarming wake-up call one day about the toll that technology was taking on her life -- and her family. "I realized several years ago that I had stopped looking in my children's eyes," the HopeLab President and CEO said at a Huffington Post panel at Ad Week on Tuesday . "And it was shocking to me." Christen's "a-ha" moment was an alarming one, but it's more common than you might think -- and it points toward a larger, and often undiscussed, byproduct of excessive screen time. The decline of eye contact is well-documented , and as we spend more and more of our time staring at screens, there's less time left over to look into people's eyes -- including the eyes of the people we care about most. Between staring at computers during the work day and regularly gazing down at our phones, Americans spending more time with their eyes glued to their screens than ever before. According to recent estimates ,

Bobbi Kristina died on Sunday age 22 six months after she was found face down and unresponsive in the bath-tub of the Roswell, Georgia, home she shared with then boyfriend, Nick Gordon, 25. Gordon is now a person of interest to investigators attempting to piece together the events that led to Bobbi Kristina’s untimely death. But according to TMZ, he has still written to Bobbi Kristina’s father and Pat Houston begging for permission to attend the funeral service. The email states: ‘I loved Krissi with all my heart and I am destroyed that she is gone and I need to say goodbye. ‘Krissi loved me very much and she would want me there’. The chances of him being accepted by the family are, however, slim to none. The Houston family has slapped him with a $10million lawsuit alleging that he abused her and stole her money while she was in a medically induced coma. While Gordon has been a figure of controversy with Bobby Brown banning him first from his daughter’s hospital bedsi
