Evangelist Ebuka, founder of the Zion Prayer Movement‏, recently shared the three life promises he made to God before starting his ministry.

In an open discussion, Obi recounted the impactful guidance he received from Reverend Father Luke Odinkemmelu.

This prophet helped him during his youth and advised him on principles to help him maintain God’s grace and power.

One of the core commitments Obi made was to remain a virgin until marriage.

Also, the teachings help that this dedication would help preserve his spiritual strength and allow God’s grace to flow fully in his life.

“He told me that to sustain God’s grace, I must not sleep with a woman until marriage,” Obi shared.

He has remained true to his word and intends to keep this promise until he marries.

Ebuka Obi also revealed that Reverend Father Luke discouraged him from opening his church, advising instead to stay within the Catholic Church, where he was raised.

The priest reportedly saw a vision of Obi speaking to millions of people and guided him to pursue a calling that didn’t include starting a traditional church.

Obi took this advice seriously, structuring the Zion Prayer Movement Outreach as a prayer ground rather than a church.

Unlike many religious leaders, he does not perform baptisms or officiate weddings, emphasizing that his ministry is purely for prayer and spiritual guidance.

The third promise he made was to avoid becoming money-focused.

Father Luke had urged him to let his work be about serving people rather than profit, cautioning that material concerns could interfere with his spiritual path.

Inspired by this message, Obi committed to leading a life focused on prayer, guidance, and faith, rather than financial gain.

Through these vows, Evangelist Obi believes he has been able to build a ministry that impacts countless people.

Oprah Winfrey, the iconic American television host, recently addressed rumours suggesting that she was paid $1 million to support Kamala Harris in the just-concluded U.S. presidential election.

The rumours, initially reported by the Washington Examiner, claimed that Oprah’s company, Harpo Productions, had received payment to organize and host a celebrity town hall in September as part of Harris’s campaign efforts.

However, Oprah swiftly debunked these claims, emphatically stating that she did not accept any form of payment for her support.

In a statement to TMZ, Oprah said, “Not true. I was paid nothing, ever.”

Despite her involvement in rallying support for Harris, Oprah refrained from commenting on the election results, which saw the Republican Party’s nominee, Donald Trump, declared as the President-elect.

Oprah’s endorsement of Harris was widely seen as a show of solidarity and support for the Democratic Party, but Oprah has made it clear that her efforts were rooted in genuine support rather than financial compensation.

Known for her influence and philanthropic work, Oprah remains a prominent figure in American politics, though she often keeps her personal views out of the public eye.

Minister Uche Nnaji Urges Nigerians to Embrace Local Goods for Economic Growth

Published

on


Recently, the Minister of Innovation, Science, and Technology, Chief Uche Nnaji, called on Nigerians to embrace and prioritize locally-made goods.

According to him, Nigerian-made products not only meet high-quality standards but also play a critical role in strengthening the nation’s economy.

He pointed this out at the opening of a specialized training program in Abuja aimed at empowering youth and women through hands-on skills in various sectors.

The training, organized by the Federal Institute of Industrial Research, Oshodi (FIIRO), equips young Nigerians and women with practical knowledge in fields.

This field consists of cassava and potato bread production, mushroom farming, cosmetics manufacturing, date syrup production, and converting diesel generators to compressed natural gas (CNG).

Simply, this initiative is part of a broader effort to create jobs, reduce poverty, and encourage entrepreneurship by transforming scientific research into practical, market-ready products.

In addition, Chief Nnaji emphasized that this initiative is closely aligned with President Bola Tinubu’s eight-point agenda, which includes combatting poverty, fostering economic growth, and creating jobs.

By promoting science, technology, and innovation (STI), the ministry aims to transform Nigeria’s industrial landscape.

“Our commitment to advancing Nigeria’s technological and industrial capacity is unwavering,” Nnaji stated, underscoring the ministry’s role in fostering an ecosystem that moves the country closer to economic self-sufficiency and industrial power.

Additionally, he explained that translating research and development (R&D) into commercially viable products is essential for Nigeria’s long-term growth and economic stability.

“This program is a step towards bridging the gap between research and the market, enabling us to generate foreign exchange and create sustainable job opportunities.

By focusing on commercialization, we are not only strengthening the naira but also working to diversify Nigeria’s economic base,” he noted.

Programs like this, he explained, support the growth of small businesses by providing individuals with the skills to become self-reliant and contribute meaningfully to national development.

FIIRO, which has been a prominent institution in Nigeria’s research sector since its founding, plays a vital role in developing and promoting technologies suited to Nigeria’s needs.

Through its ongoing work, FIIRO helps to address local challenges by leveraging Nigeria’s abundant raw materials and fostering skills that drive innovation in diverse industries.

Chief Nnaji acknowledged the institute’s efforts in supporting young Nigerians and women, who, with the right training, are empowered to establish their businesses and create jobs within their communities.

As part of its strategic vision, the Ministry of Innovation, Science, and Technology has established partnerships through various Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs), utilizing Nigeria’s local resources and labour force.

These collaborations aim to drive innovation across the country’s geopolitical zones by working closely with regional agencies and stakeholders in the STI sector.

The Technology and Innovation Centers established by the ministry are intended as hubs for knowledge exchange, helping to accelerate research applications and build an innovation-driven economy.

Addressing the program’s participants, Chief Nnaji urged them to approach the training with dedication and to collaborate as “innovation clusters.”

He emphasised the collective efforts of these trainees which could foster Nigeria’s shift from a consumption-focused economy to one driven by production and innovation.

Also, he encouraged Nigerians to actively support these budding entrepreneurs by purchasing their products, which would help to ensure their long-term sustainability and market presence.
