It is now a regular sight in church to see many people using their mobile devices like phones and Ipads to access their Bibles...some of the pastors even preach using their Ipads/Notepads etc while on the pulpit.
Initially when this trend started I wasn't too comfortable with it and would actually condemn it in my heart until the day I forgot my Bible at home and had to resort to the one on my phone and since then I must say I have joined the bandwagon.
A couple of days ago I stumbled across an article stating that the General Superintendent of Deeper Life Church,Pastor W.F Kumuyi had banned the use of such devices in his church. However,he has since come out openly to say he never said such.(I still think there is no smoke without fire sha)
He said Technology also has its place in the spread of the gospel and he isn't against it but that its misuse or abuse is not encouraged.
I won't lie though sometimes after reading my bible with my phone I kinda tend to scroll through my Twitter,Instagram and even Facebook pages(*bows head in shame*....it happens to you too sometimes right?) but immediately I call myself to order and concentrate on what my Pastor is saying(*opens teeth*)
I have even sat beside someone who was actually playing a game on his phone during service...all ye Temple Run game lovers!
So I ask,should mobile devices be encouraged in church?
Low
and middle class Nigerians desiring to own brand new cars will soon
realise their dreams as indigenous automobile manufacturing firm,
Innoson Group of Companies, is set to launch its new products.
The firm, which manufactures cars, buses, tankers and other products, would from August 8 introduce brand new cars into the Nigerian automobile market at the cost of N1.5 million.
Chairman and Chief Executive of the company, Mr. Innocent Chukwuma, who announced this in Enugu yesterday, said the cars which would be fully air conditioned and come with other gadgets were made for Nigerians to have access to brand new cars.
The costliest of the coming cars, according to him, would be bought at N3.5 million.
Chukwuma, who spoke at the road show organised by Empower Nigeria at the Enugu campus of the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, told the students of the university how he started venturing into diversified enterprise.
He said: “I will launch my own cars in about two weeks time. And the cars will cost between N1.5 million and N3.5 million, depending on the cadre.”
The Innoson Group Chairman told the audience that his company was not into car assembly but actual car manufacturing.
Chukwuma said: “Some people think that my factory is an assembly plant, but they are wrong. We do not assemble, we manufacture.
“Eighty percent of Nigerians do not believe that we manufacture vehicles in my company. But we do manufacture.
“The raw materials are bought from different countries and some in Nigeria.”
Chukwuma said his workforce has hit over 7,500, expressing happiness that he had contributed immensely to the nation’s economy.
The founder of Empower Nigeria and President of Anabel Group, Nicholas Okoye expressed delight that such a successful entrepreneur like Chukwuma was able to honour the invitation to speak to the youths, regarded as the leaders of tomorrow.
