Fake men of God, prophets deceiving people with candles – Pastor Giwa
The Senior Pastor of The Second Coming of Christ Ministry, Adewale Giwa, has urged Nigerians to disregard any pastor who asks them to bring candles for prayers.
Pastor Giwa lamented that fake prophets and pastors were using candles to deceive people in the name of prayers.
In a statement he issued, Giwa stressed that relying on the word of God is more powerful than the use of candles.
The clergyman said: “Nobody that works closely with God that won’t hear his voice. Somebody said God doesn’t speak again, no – God still speaks.
“Is it a so-called clergyman who uses charms to lay his alter that God will talk to? The work of God can never spoil. Anything that has God’s hands stand.
“Look at how a lot of fake pastors and prophets are deceiving people, we can see it when Jesus Christ entered the town of Naphtali and Zebulun. The town was in total darkness and when Jesus Christ entered, he shone his light in there.
“Jesus Christ told them, do you know that you love darkness more than light? Today, when you see a church that preaches the truth, it’s difficult for such to have a large congregation.
“But the one that deceives people, tells them to go and bring 12 candles, that’s the type of church people prefer to attend. You will realize that the heart of most people who attend such churches are not with God.
“Knowing the word of God is more powerful than relying on a candle. Lighting or praying with candles can not solve problems. It is the word of God that has solutions to all challenges.
“Hebrews 4:12 says the word of God is sharper than any two-edged sword. Discard any pastor who asks you to go bring candles.”

I Threw My Expensive Gold Jewelry into the Lagoon the Moment I Became a Born-Again Christian— Pastor Adeboye’s Wife, Foluke
Wife of Foluke Adeboye has revealed the drastic step she took after becoming born again, throwing away her gold jewellery into a lagoon.
Speaking candidly, the pastor’s wife shared that like many women, she once loved fashion and had even prepared expensive gold items for her young child.
However, everything changed after she joined the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), where wearing earrings was frowned upon at the time.
“The moment we were born again, it was a taboo for you to have earrings. So everything, I dropped it in the lagoon,” she said.
She recalled how a family friend questioned her decision, suggesting she could have given the jewellery to her mother to sell instead.
But She stood firm, “Whatever is not good for me is not good for my mother.”
Reflecting on her journey, she made it clear she has no regrets about her sacrifice.
“I don’t miss anything, not much, because I have already sold my life,” she added.

ADC calls on women to lead, shape Nigeria’s future
As Nigeria observes International Women’s Day 2026, the African Democratic Congress (ADC) has urged women to take active roles in politics and leadership to help build a more inclusive nation.
In a statement on Sunday, Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi, the party’s National Publicity Secretary, said Nigerian women carry a disproportionate share of social and economic responsibilities but remain underrepresented in decision-making positions.
“From mothers and teachers to doctors, nurses, and entrepreneurs, women sustain our nation every day. Yet their voices are often absent when decisions about our future are made,” the statement read.
The ADC highlighted that its National Working Committee is deliberately structured to include women, and emphasized that the party is the only one in Nigeria whose constitution reserves 40 per cent of all positions at every level for women.
“For the ADC, women are partners in nation-building, and empowering them strengthens Nigeria’s democracy. When Nigerian women rise, the nation rises with them,” Abdullahi added.
The party urged more women across the country to join its platform and contribute to shaping Nigeria’s political and democratic future.
“To the ADC, women are indispensable to the future of Nigerian democracy. A nation of over two hundred million people cannot reach its full potential when half of its population remains underrepresented in political leadership. Nigeria’s democracy will only become stronger when its institutions reflect the strength, talent, and diversity of its people,” the statement emphasized.
