I Do Embarrass People Who get Randy With Me – Halima Abubakar

Curvaceous Nollywood actress, Halima Abubakar, has got what it takes to make many men get out of turn and get funny. But as they say, looks can be deceptive, and, instead of getting a load of welcoming smiles, you might just end up with either goose pimples or even a red eye because this sexy beau is all everything but vulnerable.

But even the stern Halima would agree that as much as those ‘stop’ signs seem to be oozing out of her eyes, some die-hard randy men still try their luck to see if they could get on easy street with her.  “Won’t I be lying if I say nobody has harassed me? I’m a lady. It’s totally untrue when people say they’ve never been harassed”, she said.

Secret of Wealth In Tribulations -Bishop Oyedepo

Bishop David Oyedepo says poverty is not of God.  He insists a child of God has no business being poor and declares: “There’s a proven covenant cure for poverty.”  If this were true and proven, all the world’s poor would have become rich Christians by now.

Let us juxtapose the bishop’s enticing words with the word of God and see whose report should be believed.  Jesus says: “You will always have the poor among you.” (John 12:8).  Moses says: “The poor will never cease from the land.” (Deuteronomy 15:11).  So where does that leave Bishop Oyedepo’s “proven covenant cure for poverty?”  It is a pie in the sky.
