Evangelist Moses Korede Are, Pioneer of Gospel Drama, Passes Away
Evangelist Are, a passionate advocate for spreading Christian messages through drama, was widely recognized for his outstanding contributions to the Nigerian gospel drama industry.
Throughout his career, he produced a number of impactful films that resonated deeply with audiences across Nigeria and even internationally.
His works, such as Owo Blow, Igbeyawo Aiye, Oro Ika, Gba Mi L’owo, and Emi Mi M’oke, often explored powerful themes of faith, morality, and the Christian way of life.
His dedication to delivering messages of hope, faith, and righteousness through drama captured the hearts of many.
Evangelist Are’s films became a staple in the gospel drama community, offering both entertainment and spiritual lessons.
His works went beyond mere storytelling, often urging viewers to reflect on their lives and grow in their faith.
By addressing relevant moral issues, his films inspired many to align their lives with Christian teachings, fostering a deep sense of spirituality and ethical values.
In the gospel drama industry, Evangelist Are was not alone in his efforts. He collaborated with some of the most influential figures in the field, helping to shape the growth of Christian drama in Nigeria.
Notable partnerships included working with Evangelists Mike and Gloria Bamiloye, the dynamic founders of Mount Zion Faith Ministries, who have themselves made a significant mark in the industry.
Through these collaborations, Evangelist Are was part of a movement that sought to elevate gospel drama to new heights, reaching both young and old with powerful, faith-based content.
In addition to the Bamiloyes, he also worked closely with Pastor Lekan Asikhia, a prominent figure in the Nigerian Christian community, and filmmaker Femi Adebile, whose influence helped elevate the standard of Christian drama production.
Together, they laid a strong foundation that has influenced the next generation of gospel filmmakers.
It was reported that former Nigerian president Goodluck Jonathan has allegedly purchased a presidential candidate form for the 2027 elections.
It can be noted that Jonathan served as Nigeria’s president from 2010 to 2015.
This information was revealed by Sani Useni, a special assistant who made the claim. Many reacted to the news, with some expressing interest in seeing Jonathan return to power after staying relatively quiet politically since his administration ended.
However, Jonathan has not yet addressed the public or officially shared any presidential ambition.
The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has reacted to the recent abduction incident in Oyo State.
It can be recalled that schools were attacked by armed men, with some teachers and students reportedly taken. Some people were also killed during the attack.
CAN cried out on behalf of the public, stating “It is intolerable, disgraceful and utterly unacceptable that Nigerian children can no longer sit safely in classrooms without the fear of being kidnapped by armed gangs.”
The organisation also stated that Nigerians are tired of constantly mourning and questioning when something will finally be done to stop the violence.
The Governor of Oyo State, Seyi Makinde, has revealed that seven teachers were abducted following a recent attack on a school in the state.
It was also shared that the number of students taken is still being investigated.
The governor further revealed that some people were killed during the attack and abduction.
He also added “With the pressure on the terrorists and the bandits in the North-West, they will keep moving southward.”
“When you have pressure in one place, we must be prepared on this side to either repel or neutralise any terrorists fleeing the pressure points.”
