Pastor E. A. Adeboye begs youth congregation to stop uploading his sermons on social media
-Spare me the problem of social media, don’t upload my messages,” Pastor Adeboye begs members .
Weeks after getting dragged on social media for advising his male church members not to marry a woman who can’t cook or pray for one hour, Pastor E.A Adeboye, the G.O of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG, has begged youths of the church to stop uploading his videos or quoting him on social media, Naij reports.
He said this in order for him to be spared the torrents of backlash such uploaded posts may attract from millions of social media users. Speaking during a youth program, he pleaded with the participants to spare him the problem of social media by not uploading the program’s video on YouTube.
He was quoted as saying: “Spare me the problem. I’m not talking to you so that you can put me on YouTube.”

Saudi-led airstrike on Yemen prison leaves many dead and twice as much injured
- Saudi-Led Airstrikes on Yemen Prison Kill at Least 60
The number dead from a Saudi-led coalition airstrike on a prison complex in western Yemen has risen to 58, security officials have said.
Abdel-Rahman al-Mansab, a security chief of the district of al-Zaydiya in the Red Sea port of Hodeida, said most of the dead in Saturday’s airstrike were prisoners. They were among a total of 115 prisoners who were serving jail terms for minor crimes or who were in pre-trial detention.
The city is under the control of Yemen’s Shia Houthi rebels, who seized the capital and much of the northern region in 2014. The Houthi takeover has forced the internationally recognised government to flee the country and request military intervention by neighbouring Gulf states, which have conducted an extensive air campaign in Yemen since March last year.
The conflict has left more than 10,000 people dead and injured and displaced nearly 3 million Yemenis while pushing the Arab world’s poorest nation to the brink of famine.
Rights groups have accused the coalition of systematically carrying out attacks on civilians. On Sunday, the Saudi-led coalition said the prison complex was used as a command centre for Houthis.
Mansab denied that, saying it was a “civilian” site and added that the complex came under three airstrikes that killed the prisoners along with rescuers who came to help the injured. He said there were still bodies under the rubble.
Yemeni officials said at least 20 of the victims were anti-Houthi political detainees who were rounded up over suspicions of co-operating with the coalition.
Mansab said that the complex has two prisons, one for women and one for men, but there were no female prisoners at the time of the attack. “When I went there, I saw a pile-up of charred bodies beyond recognition. They were burned to death,” he said.
A medical official said nearly 60 other bodies were transferred to the military hospital in the city, suggesting that some of the victims were security personnel. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorised to speak to the press.
Hodeida is one of Yemen’s most impoverished cities. The Saudi-led coalition has repeatedly targeted its port, under the pretext that it is being used by Houthis to smuggle weapons.
The port serves the northern region, including the Houthi-controlled capital, Sana’a. The bombing of the port and a naval and air blockade imposed by the coalition have contributed to the increasing rate of food insecurity in Yemen, which imports 90% of its food.

A woman and two children found dead in a Danish freezer
Danish police said on Monday they found the bodies of a slain Syrian refugee and her two young daughters in a freezer in their apartment, as they launched a manhunt for the girls’ father.
The bodies of the 27-year-old mother and her seven and nine-year-old daughters were found inside a freezer in their apartment in the southern Danish town of Aabenraa after a concerned relative had not heard from them for days.
“Police went into the apartment and found the three bodies in a freezer,” local police said in a statement.
“The victim’s husband and the father of the two children was not in the apartment, and we are actively searching for him,” the statement added.
The Syrian family arrived in Denmark in 2015 and were granted refugee status.
The Scandinavian nation welcomed 21,000 migrants in 2015. The influx has significantly slowed since Denmark re-established border controls in early 2016.
