 Mrs Abiodun Olajumoke Opeifa



The Hydra Edge Foundation (T.H.E), is a not-for-profit and non-political organisation, created in June 2008 by Mrs Abiodun Olajumoke Opeifa and some concerned individuals to promote individual community empowerment development and prospects through wealth creation. Since its establishment, this people’s empowerment initiative for Leadership, economic and personal development has made remarkable impact on the lives of thousands of youth and women, especially widows. On annual basis, T.H.E organizes an end-of-the-year get-together where the less-privileged, including widows and children are empowered with various items including cash gifts. The 6th edition of this novel empowerment programme came up on December 23, 2013 at the NYSC Camp, Agege, Lagos.

Apart from these, a  free Micro-finance empowerment of N50, 000 (Fifty Thousand Naira) each, were disbursed to 20 beneficiaries.   There were also thousands of bags of rice, vegetable oil and other vital items distributed to the less privileged at the event. Another high point of the event was the presentation of N1, 793,000 Scholarship Cheque to Master Ayomide Adebayo. The cheque provided by The Hydra Edge Foundation under the Dame Abimbola Fashola Scholarship Scheme, was given to Adebayo, a 13-year old student of Methodist Boys High School as result of his exceptional academic brilliance in the school. Towards the end of the programme, The Award of Life Patron of the Foundation was presented to Prince Adebisi Adedokun (Baba Odeomu) in recognition of his unprecedented support for Foundation.

AIR DISASTER, BOMB BLAST WILL HAPPEN IN NIGERIA IN 2014 UNLESS… …PROPHET (DR) CHRIS OKAFOR



Popular Nigerian Seer and General Overseer of Mountain of Liberation and Miracle Ministry, aka Liberation City, Dr Chris Okafor has released a new set frightening prophecies and predictions for the year 2014. Ministering during the church’s Cross-Over Watch-night service entitled “Night of Divine Repositioning”, organised to usher the church into the New Year, the Prophet (Dr) Okafor, fondly called The Oracle of God, explained that God revealed those prophecies as a warning to all and if the people concerned are very sensitive they should work on it and pray against the negative manifestation of the revelations. Below some of the prophecies:

1. MAJOR BOMB BLAST WILL SHAKE THE COUNTRY
The oracle of God said there will be major bomb blast that will rock the country and these will keep so many family perished, these will happen simultaneously but if the country can come together to pray God might listen to their cry, this thing will happen as a result of enemity between people, but it can be averted.

2. AIR DISASTER IN FIRST, SECOND AND THIRD MONTH OF THE YEAR
God revealed to me that there will be major air disaster in the early month of the year, that might claims life of so many eminent Nigerians, so we will like to use this opportunity to call on all stakeholders in the aviation industry to come alive in discharging their duties because God has revealed to correct errors and redeemed his people so it left in to the hand of the regulator to ensure safety on the air.

3. BLOODSHED ON JANUARY 25, 2014
There will be bloodshed on the 25th of January, but it was not directly stated which channels it will come from, whether through road, water or air, but the major thing is for the people to pray against any form of accident on the date. Again God revealed to redeemed, he warned.

4. 2014 YEAR OF GREATER INCREASE
The Oracle of God landed with a soft touch while rounding up his prophesy for the year with the declaration that the year in view, is a Year of Greater Increase in all ramification for those who believe and serve God diligently, he said all the people that labour on the right path will reap the fruit of their labour, while he challenged all political office holders to look for ways through which their impact will be felt across the country. He also challenged Nigerians to continue to pray for the survival of democracy in the country.
Among some of his Prophecies for 2013 was the Death of Nelson Mandela, which came to pass. He also warned about an impending fire disaster, plane crash, and death in the household of the President among others. He also predicted Nigeria’s victory over Ethiopia and eventual qualification for World cup. A very charismatic preacher and minister of the Gospel, Prophet (Dr) Chris Okafor has had a fair share of controversies in the past, but somehow his church, Mountain of Liberation and Miracle Ministry, aka Liberation City, located in Ojodu axis of Lagos, has continued to wax stronger with many finding permanent solutions to numerous life challenges there. These new prophecies will certainly generate mixed reactions from Nigerians. Or what do you think?

ABILITY IN DISABILITY

This woman caught my attention recently in Agege area of Lagos. Nursing a baby on all fours! Some folks on four-wheels drive will give anything to have a tot...different strokes....really. She holds her bag with her teeth. Necessity is the mother of invention.  But who is her husband and where is he? She obviously has no access to a wheel chair. Where are the Gender Activists?

I AM RESUMING BLOGGING TO RECIPROCATE GOOGLE ADSENSE's GESTURE

My not being active on Blogger for over three years notwithstanding, i was pleasantly surprised when i stumbled on an email from Google Adsense that i had some accumulated advert payment waiting. Eventually the payment came shortly after Christmas 2013..in Dollars. Though, it wasnt huge, yet it was both interesting and encouraging. This is it: what i started just to while away the time when i was out of job in 2008 is now bringing in some income.
In order to reciprocate Google's good gesture therefore, i have decided to resume blogging in 2014. It is going to be a gradual thing, due to my current work schedule but i hope to go full blast ASAP. This is a society blog and i promise to do a lot of that, God willing.
Welcome Once Again!
