 Peter Obi has blamed hunger and systemic failures for the recent spate of stampedes across the country.  Scores of persons were dead, and many others wounded in the tragic incidents in Ibadan, Oyo State; Okija in Anambra and another one in the nation’s capital of Abuja. The stampedes happened in a space of five days with the last two occurring on Saturday morning during food distribution campaigns. Obi, who was the Labour Party (LP)’s presidential candidate in the 2023 election, said the incidents underline the rising hunger in the country which has led to desperation. “I am deeply saddened and distressed by the tragic loss of lives in desperate searches for food,” Obi, who is a former governor of Anambra State, wrote in a post on his X account Saturday afternoon. “While I will not cast blame but instead appreciate the organizers of these respective events for their kind gestures in providing palliatives and support to society, especially the poor, these tragedies reflect the...

'WHAT GOD CANNOT DO DOESN'T EXIST' IS A SILLY SLOGAN- PATRICK DOYLE. (PHOTO).


 ‘What God cannot do doesn’t exist’ is a silly slogan – Patrick Doyle


Ace Nollywood actor, Patrick Doyle has shared his thoughts about the slogan ‘What God cannot do does not exist’.


The thespian stated that the slogan is silly while noting how other slogans ‘blunt the efficacy of profound scriptures’.


In a recent Facebook post, the thespian bemoaned that despite the fact that the slogan has been proven to be “nonsensical”, people still chant it.


He cautioned Christians to be wary of using phrases to avoid introducing “false teachings”.


“Some people are just too obstinate to admit their folly. Even after that slogan “What God cannot do doesn’t exist” has been proven to be silly, they still continue to chant it, ” he wrote.


“The work of bringing things into existence was completed by God on the 7th day of creation. To speculate that some things “don’t exist” and couch that irrational possibility in a slogan is insulting. “Slogans, no matter how woke they sound, have the power of attrition to blunt the efficacy of profound scriptures,” Patrick Doyle added.


“A good example is the slogan “Heaven helps those who help themselves.” This slogan overtime has become part of “Christian Lexicon” and has insidiously introduced the false doctrine of “works of men” to supplant the profundity of the doctrine of the “Finished Work Of Christ.” Here is a word of caution to christian slogan copy writers, “If It Breeds Doubt, Do Without”.”


Popular Nigerian pastor, Jerry often uses the phrase “What God cannot do doesn’t exist” in his daily sermons online.


Pastor Jerry and Minister Dunsin Oyekan also released a song with the slogan as its title.


Many Christians have since adopted the slogan.
