Publisher of The ELITES, Kemi Akinyemi, has released a new coffee table book on the astonishing life of Prophetess Funmilola Lucas entitled Prophetess Funmilola Lucas: Favoured and Fabulous In God’s Vineyard” Akinyemi, a seasoned journalist and former assistant editor of TheNews in her introduction, said the book is about a woman of God whose call by God was miraculous and magical, about a life that is not just the expression of God’s will but whose call to ministry is so unique and special that it makes her different from other men and women of God.

This, indeed, is what the 150-page coffee table book spiced up with beautiful pictures of the woman of God and the testimonials of those she has worked with and touched with her gift of friendship, humanity and love is all about.

Akinyemi wrote: “This book is about a woman of God whose call by God to ministry was so unique that it makes her different from other men and women of God.

It is about a woman who initially studied catering and hotel management with the intention of becoming a caterer, but who God called to cater to the needs of women, children, and men across the globe. It is about a woman whose calling was not only prophesied but she became a prophet of God to fulfill that prophecy.”

The way Akinyemi gave a detailed account of how Prophetess Lucas’ call to ministry was prophesied by a mysterious old man and how she has gone on to fulfil that God-given mandate shows she has an insider and rare knowledge of her.

Prophetess Lucas’ uniqueness was also pointed out in the Foreword: “These days, it is rare to find an extroverted leader, a creative visionary, true counselor, a great evangelist bringing many souls to Christ, a warm and welcoming face to all who enter the sanctuary, a theologian, a teacher, and a good friend of everyone.

So it is always a thing of joy when you meet a true woman of God whose works have genuinely touched lives beyond bounds. Prophetess Funmilola Lucas falls into this category.

“The book, “Prophetess Funmilola Lucas: Favoured and Fabulous In God’s Vineyard” is a recapitulation of how Prophetess Funmilola Lucas discovered her purpose in life, after following God’s plan for her life.

The book tells the story of how she has become a testimonial of how one can work for and walk with God and enjoy a flourishing, favour-filled, and fabulous life.”

Akinyemi confirmed that the book, which is about Prophetess Lucas’ flourishing, favour-filled and fabulous life, was official unveiled during her birthday celebration which was held on Tuesday, October 31, 2023, in Lagos.

A High Court in Ogun State has imposed an interim injunction prohibiting a planned event in memory of the late singer, Ilerioluwa Aloba, aka Mohbad.

The legal team of the deceased family disclosed this in a statement signed by its representative, Monisola Odumosu, and exclusively obtained by PUNCH Metro, on Sunday.

Odumosu noted that the court’s decision, handed down by Justice O. Osunfisan, on Thursday, was in response to a motion filed by the late Mohbad’s father, Joseph Aloba, represented by Emmanuel Oroko.

According to the statement, the injunction specifically targeted plans to host the ‘Sing for Mohbad and Win’ event, scheduled for September 12-14, 2024 in the state or any other location.

“In the motion with suit number HCT/871/2024 Justice Osunfisan ordered as follows ‘ An order of interim injunction is hereby granted restraining the respondent whether by himself servants, agents,assigns or otherwise however called from holding any event titled ‘Sing for Mohbad and Win’ organised by the respondent which is set to be held on September 12, 13, and 14, 2024, at the Aqua Lounge or any other place pending the determination of the originating motion for interlocutory injunction dated and filed on September 6, 2024. The order of interim injunction hereby granted today, the 12 day of September 2024, is to last for seven days following the provision of the Rules of Court,” the statement read in part.

The Aloba family, who initiated the legal action, had previously appealed to the public to respect their moment of grief and refrain from commercialising the occasion by exploiting the goodwill of their late son.

Odumosu however stated that the matter was set to return to court on October 7, 2024, for the hearing of the originating motion for interlocutory injunction.

Mercy Johnson-Okojie, the Nollywood actress, has been criticised on social media for campaigning for Monday Okpebholo, the All Progressive Congress (APC) candidate in the upcoming Edo election.

A now-viral video shows Mercy soliciting votes for Okpebholo at a rally. She also assured the crowd that the APC gubernatorial candidate will “bring positive changes” to the state.

“Are you not tired? No light, water, healthcare, security and good roads. If you will vote for senator Monday, raise your hand,” she said.

“…So when you get to that field early in the morning, vote for Monday, vote for APC, vote for the broom.”

The video has triggered backlash on social media with critics slamming the actress for supporting the ruling party despite widespread economic hardship.

“Mercy Johnson is just a cheap opportunistic agbero with zero class and zero morality in my opinion. Imagine supporting blabbing Tinubu and now also supporting Illiterate Monday Okpebholo of all people. Talent is really not enough,” an X user wrote.
