  The Student Pastor of C.A.C Oke Anu,Iree,Osun State,Bro. Williams Oluwasegun Victor made the statement today while answering a question from a Member during the church weekly  Bible Study.


  He said it is not recorded in the Bible that alcohol is not a sin but it is wrong base on humans thought.


   He expatiate that it is the consequences that are alarming which its effects may be deadly like destruction of some system of body; Kidney and lungs which may cause untimely death.


   He stressed further that humans only say alcohol, cigarettes and other intakes are wrong because of scientific research that states that all these are harmful to the human health.


  The fact that it is not really stated in the Bible doesn't mean it should be taken, our common sense should tell us that it can be dangerous to the body system and taking of alcohol or cigarettes can cause damage of lungs, kidney and can leads to death, Bro Williams Oluwasegun said.


  He ended his teaching by saying that everything in life is by choice and nobody in life doesn't know the right or wrong thing to do, we all know the right thing to do.

FEATURE: A Town That Never Stopped Giving — Ife Odan’s Long Wait for Governor Adeleke’s Attention

-
Image
 By Victor Olubiye Nestled in the heart of Osun State’s western region lies Ife Odan — a town once known for its robust agricultural contribution, now left in the shadows of neglect. For over ten years, the town has watched its roads deteriorate, its healthcare weaken, and its schools fade, all while continuing to feed the state through unrelenting farming efforts. The resilience of Ife Odan is undeniable, but its patience is wearing thin. The people of Ife Odan believed change had finally arrived in 2022, when they threw their political weight behind Senator Ademola Adeleke’s gubernatorial bid. It wasn’t about party loyalty; it was a vote anchored in hope — a belief that Adeleke’s message of “people-first governance” would bring long-awaited development to their doorstep. But nearly three years into his administration, the town is still waiting. From cassava to maize, yam to leafy vegetables, Ife Odan’s fertile lands continue to supply Osun State’s markets despite minimal governme...

FEATURE: Origin Of The Word "OBA(KING)"

-
Image
By Victor Olubiye The word "Ọba" is a pure Yorùbá word meaning "he who sits over or lord over." It was Ọ̀rànmíyàn that introduced the word to Benin. The word can be divided into two morphemes: Ọ and BA. Ọ as a prefix signifies the word refers to a being. For example, ọ-kùnrin - male. ọ-ká - that which coils up, referring to a specie of snake that coils up - Gabon viper. Ọ-ya - that which breaks its bank and flows uncontrollably, name of Yorùbá goddess of river Niger. This same ọ-rule exists in nouns that are formed from possessive relation with something. For example: ọlọ́jà, ọlọ́rọ̀, Ọlọ́run, Ọlọ́yọ̀ọ́, ọlọ́fà, ọlọ́ya, ọlọ́ba, Ọlọ́wọ̀ etc.  No wonder it is only in Yorùbá language that the word means anything close to rulership. In Benin, it is not even a NOUN as one would expect it to be. They themselves claim it means "to shine." meaning it was originally a verb turned noun. It is only in Yorùbá language that the word is a noun ab initio. Historically, t...

DOCUMENTARY: A Founder Of Kambole Town In Togo Was A Hunter From Ile-Ife

-
Image
 By Victor Olubiye Kambolé (also called Camboli or Kaboli) is a historic town in Tchamba Prefecture, about 90 km east of Sokodé in central Togo. With a population of around 50,000, it is known today as a key trading hub for nearby farming communities. The people speak Ede Nago, a dialect of the Manigri-Kambolé variety. The origins of Kambolé trace back to between the 14th and 17th centuries when a renowned hunter from Ilé-Ifẹ̀, known as Ọ̀dẹ Amọn, left Nigeria in search of safer lands due to unrest back home. A direct descendant of Odùduwà, Ọ̀dẹ Amọn’s name means "the famous or well-known hunter" in Yoruba. His journey took him through places like Idjiho in Nigeria, Savè and Igbomakoh in what is now Benin Republic, moving alongside the Ouémé River. He and his companions eventually settled temporarily in Katankou. One day during a hunting expedition in the forests of Katankou, he discovered a beautiful clearing and named it Òkè Gengele ("Hill" in Yoruba). Venturing f...

 By Victor Olubiye Meet Sarki Abba from Kano State Nigeria, the genius that was made to rewrite WASSCE after scoring 9 distinctions. In 1984, 16 year-old Abba, a student of Science Secondary School Dawakin Tofa, scored 9 distinctions (8 A1s and 1 A2) in his West African School Certificate Examination( WASSCE) equivalent of today's West African Senior School Certificate (WASSCE) Exams.  Examination authorities in Lagos didn't believe Abba made those excellent scores without cheating. The authorities provided a car that took Abba to Lagos in order to retake the exam.  Abba was made to take the 9 exams in a duration of 3 days, under heavy supervision. After marking the rescheduled exams, he scored 9 A1s (the only ‘A2’ he had in English Language before the retake, now became ‘A1’). Faced with shock, the authorities apologized and instituted the National Merit Award. And, rightfully, Sarki Abba was the first recipient of the award.  In 1989/90 school session, Sarki Abba ...
