No going back – Sowore dares Nigerian govt

Human rights activist and former presidential candidate of the African Action Congress, AAC, Omoyele Sowore, has vowed to continue his criticism of the Nigerian government despite fresh attempts by security agencies to clamp down on his social media accounts.

Sowore, in a statement on Sunday via his X handle, alleged that the Department of State Services, DSS, wrote to X demanding the deactivation of his account within 24 hours.

He claimed the move followed an earlier protest at the Federal High Court and the Ministry of Justice by alleged pro-government demonstrators who called for his arrest.

According to him, the action is “unconstitutional” and amounts to “a desecration of national dignity.”

He accused the DSS and the police of persistent harassment, including arrests, seizure of his passport, and what he described as trumped-up charges.

The activist also alleged that he was recently assaulted by armed police officers, and that the federal government had falsely accused him in court of terrorism financing.

Sowore maintained that the DSS move to pressure social media platforms into silencing him was an attempt to “export national disgrace to the US,” insisting that such measures would not stop his campaign against President Bola Tinubu’s administration.

“The struggle against these criminals continues ceaselessly with or without a Twitter account, with or without Facebook, and whether I am in jail or outside of it. The struggle continues,” he declared.

The General Overseer of the Mountain of Holy Ghost Intervention and Deliverance Ministry, Onitsha, Prophet Chukwuemeka Cyril Ohanaemere, popularly known as Odumeje, has stirred reactions with a new revelation about his life and ministry.

During a recent church service, the preacher declared that his time on earth is limited and that when his journey comes to an end, no one will ever see his body.

“I am the strongest spirtual man in the world, after the general ‘Emmanuel’ TB Joshua. We are not many, we are just two. One has done the job and has returned home, remaining the Lion Himself. The dead man. I don’t have much time to spend here. Nobody will see my corpse,” Odumeje said, stressing that his earthly assignment was not about longevity but about fulfilling a divine mandate.

According to him, his ministry was established to “clear people’s doubt about Jesus Christ,” pointing out that his central message is anchored on the supremacy of one God and one power.

“Our mission is to clear your doubt about Jesus Christ. Our mission is one God and one power, and that man is Jesus Christ,” he added.

The Onitsha-based cleric, who has gained nationwide attention for his unorthodox style of preaching and deliverance, is no stranger to controversy.

His dramatic demonstrations on the pulpit, bold prophecies, and unconventional statements have earned him both staunch supporters and strong critics.

Odumeje has often described himself as the “liquid metal,” “the war,” and “the indaboski bahose,” titles that have become catchphrases among his followers and online audiences.
