As expected, since August 7th, 2020 when the President of Nigeria, Major General Muhammadu Buhari ( retd.) signed the Companies and Allied Matters Act into law, there have been a lot of positive and negative reactions from all quarters including the Church that seems to have been the major target of the new Companies and Allied Matters Act. Church organizations and Christian personnels (notable and non-notable) have expressed their opinions on the recently signed Companies and Allied Matters Act, some of which have been documented below, but before proceeding, I believe there's a need for you to know a little about CAMA and what it stands for.

Their functions include: 1) Overseeing and regulating the formation, incorporation, management and winding up of companies. 2) Institution and maintenance of c...

The persecution of Christians around the world is on the rise. It is no surprise as the Bible have foretold that things like this will happen in the last days ( 2nd Timothy 3:1, Matthew 5:11, Luke 6:22), but the Church has to get stronger in the place of worship, evangelism and prayers.  According to a research conducted by Open Doors Researchers in 2018, roughly 215 million Christians now experience high, very high, or extreme levels of persecution; that means 1 in 12 Christians live where Christianity is “illegal, forbidden, or punished”. Take for example, North Korea ranks number one of the countries where Christians are persecuted. Thousands of Christians are imprisoned, and many have reportedly been tortured and executed. Believers meet secretly, and risk arrest and death by doing so. Like everyone else, Christians in North Korea must worship the country's leader Kim Jung-un.   Following closely is Afghanistan which ranks number 2 of the ...
