Pastor Kumuyi Suspends His Son John and His New Wife Over Flamboyant Wedding!


Latest information available to us is that the controversial wedding of Pastor W.F. Kumuyi's son John and his sweet heart, Love, started generating trouble even before the wedding day.
 
 

Some leaders of Deeper Life Bible Church who attended the wedding in Jamiaca had condemned and rejected the first wedding gown purchased by the couple as it revealed sensitive body parts...

The couple promised to change the wedding gown on Friday, just a day to the wedding, so the leaders didn't see the new wedding gown until the beautiful bride appeared at the church where the wedding took place. Their action has caused Pastor Kumuyi a lot of embarrassment as some members of the church now see him in a different light since his son's "flamboyant" wedding.


Consequently, it was gathered that the leadership of the Deeper Church has suspended the son of the General Superintendent of the church and his wife, John and Love Kumuyi, from carrying out any activity in the church over their wedding in Jamaica.


John and Love wedded in Jamaica on 15 June, 2013, and thousands of members of the church have reacted sharply while condemning the wedding gown worn by the wife and other aspects of the wedding that were at variance with the church’s standard and Pastor Kumuyi's preaching.

 
Another issue was the hiring of a Limousine by the couple, an act seen as reckless. 
Due to the myriad of controversies generated by the wedding on the social media, especially by members of Deeper Life, the church decided to place the couple on suspension.

John and Love’s suspension from the church was announced by Pastor Philip Oluwi, a key leader in the church. Pastor Oluwi, who acted on the instruction from Pastor Kumuyi, insisted and re-emphasized that the standard of Deeper Life regarding wedding and moderacy had not changed.
“The church, Deeper Life, remains committed to the biblical practice and standard of almost 40 years Christian dressing and still remains and does not compromise on biblical Christian dressing. 
“Hence, deviation warrants the displeasure and frown of God and the leadership of the church. John and Love are now under discipline.” 
  A blogger had earlier reported that the couple has apologised to the church for the embarrassing way the wedding was conducted , saying they are praying for "repentance".
You may also wish to know that the wedding took place in another church in Jamiaca, not Deeper Life, since the church was yet to be approved by the government of Jamaica for wedding activities.

How I swindled American women of $48,000 – IMSU student!

A final year student of Imo State University, Chibuzor Akobundu, has been arrested by operatives of Special Fraud Unit, Ikoyi, for allegedly swindling foreign women to the tune of $48,000 through a dating website.

Surprisingly, the 22-year-old Microbiology undergraduate confessed that his victims, resident in the United States of America, were ‘swept off their feet’ by his profile on the dating site.
He spoke with journalists yesterday, while being paraded alongside two staff of a second generation bank, who allegedly facilitated the withdrawal of money via Western Union Money Transfer.
The suspect adopted Devon Miles as his name and pasted a photograph of an unknown American citizen as his profile on the dating site.
Victims
He confessed to have swindled five American single women within the ages of 40 and 50, in search for husbands.
He gave the name of his first victim as Antoinette. He promised to marry her and was able to dupe her of $16,000 before she suspected he was a fraudster.
His next victim was one Jettie Simpson, who reportedly sent $5,000 to him via Western Union.
Others also duped by Akobundu were Shelly Bashir, $100; Billie Klock, $13,000, in a relationship that reportedly lasted for five months, and Andrea Desena, $8,000.
‘How I operate’
Akobundu said: “I started browsing the dating site three years ago, posing as a US citizen residing in Nigeria.
“At that time, it was a common game around my area in Ikeja. Along the line I met these ladies who were looking for husbands.
“They fell in love with me because of my profile, where I stated that I was a 49-year-old divorcee in search of a wife. I claimed to be an engineer.
“I would tell them I was stranded in Nigeria and needed some money to travel back to US and they would send the money via Western Union.
“At other times, I would tell them that my daughter was sick and that I needed money to offset her hospital bill and they would fall for the trick. I have never used charm to hypnotise any of them.
“My parents were never aware of what I was into because anytime I got a reasonable amount, I would travel to South Africa and squander the money.
“My regret is that I never used the money for anything tangible, to avoid suspicion. My mum is a teacher, while my father is a businessman and have been responsible for the payment of my school fees.”
Victim’s story
Explaining how he was arrested, spokesperson for the Unit, Ngozi Insitume-Agu, said: “The arrest followed a petition via the Unit’s website from one Amelia Brosick, a US citizen, dated April 16, 2013, where she alleged that one Devon Miles, suspected to be a Nigerian, defrauded her to the tune of $16,439 using different tactics.
“She added that she met the suspect on a dating site in June 2012, and the suspect, under the guise of dating her for the purpose of marriage, obtained the alleged sum fraudulently through Western Union.
“Armed with the petition, Western Union was contacted and they sent a detailed spread sheet showing all the transfers in the name of the suspect.
“Following the information, the duo of Nnamdi Nwakwue Dike and Olawale Oguniran attached to Western Union in Skye Bank, Owerri and Allen Avenue, Ikeja, branches, respectively, were arrested.
“Their revealing statements led to the arrest of the serial internet fraudster, Chibuzor Akobundun also known as Devon Miles, Martin Williams and Sani Bala Ismaila. He adopted Devon as the internet name, but opened the account in the name of Martin Williams.
Accomplices confess
He confessed that he provided the bank staff with the photocopy of his identity card so that they could withdraw the monies, while he gave them some percentage.
“The bank staff also confessed that they used Uche’s particulars to withdraw money from other persons’ accounts without his knowledge.”
However, Dike of the Owerri branch denied knowledge of what Akobundun was into. He maintained that he was only doing his job as a front-line teller staff of the bank, adding that he had never at any time paid Akobundu above the stipulated amount.
He said: “Anytime he came to collect the money, he would answer the question given  correctly, including the secret code.
“Mine is to ascertain whether the details corresponded with what was in the system at the end of which I would hand his money over to him.”
Asked if he received any gratification from Akobundu, he said he was given tips of N1,000 or N2,000 at times, just like some other bank customers do.

Western China Riots Kill 27, State Media Reports!


 

Riots in China's western region of Xinjiang have killed at least 27 people, state media has said.

 

"Seventeen people had been killed... before police opened fire and shot  dead 10 rioters", the Xinhua news agency said on Wednesday.

The latest incident comes after 21 people died in violence in April, considered the deadliest in the region since July 2009, when nearly 200 people were killed in riots in the Xinjiang capital of Urumqi.









Many Uighurs, a Turkic-speaking Muslim people who call Xinjiang home, accuse China of placing restrictions on their culture, language and religion. China says it grants them wide-ranging freedoms.
China accuses armed Uighur groups of having links to Central Asian and Pakistani armed groups and of carrying out attacks to establish an independent state called East Turkistan.
Many rights groups say China overplays the threat posed to justify its tough controls in Xinjiang.
