Yemen fighting pushes nearly 3,000 to Djibouti in less than a week: UN    Nearly 3,000 people have fled Yemen for Djibouti in less than a week as escalating violence drives growing displacement within the country and across its borders, the UN refugee agency said Friday. “Refugees continue to arrive by boat through Obock, Khor Angar, Moulhoule and Godoria after difficult journeys in small vessels,” UNHCR representative in Djibouti Sandrine Desamours told reporters in Geneva, Anadolu Agency reported. More than half of those crossing the Bab el-Mandeb Strait are women and children, while some families have been displaced for a second time after previously fleeing Yemen during the 2015 crisis and later returning.

NIGERIAN PASTOR ABEL DAMINA SPARKS CONTROVERSY, CLAIMS CHURCH OFFERINGS AND TITHES ARE USED BY MEN, NOT GOD. (PHOTO).


 Nigerian Pastor Abel Damina Sparks Controversy, Claims Church Offerings and Tithes Are Used by Men, Not God


Pastor Abel Damina of Abel Damina Ministries International has ignited widespread debate with his recent claims that tithes and offerings collected in churches do not belong to God but are used by men. The controversial statements, made during a Sunday service sermon, were captured in a viral video clip circulating online.


In the sermon, Damina asserted that “no offering goes to heaven” and that “all the offerings we give to God go to men,” emphasizing that these funds are spent by humans rather than divinely utilized. He challenged the common pastoral narrative that encourages tithing by promising spiritual or material blessings, such as the “windows of heaven” opening, calling such claims false. “The doors have been open since Jesus rose from the dead,” he declared.


Damina further alleged that many preachers who demand tithes from their congregations do not tithe themselves. “They collect from everyone but don’t give to anyone. I was there; I know how it works,” he said, drawing from his own experiences in the ministry.


The pastor’s remarks have stirred mixed reactions, with some praising his boldness in addressing church finances, while others criticize him for challenging long-held religious practices. The controversy has sparked discussions on social media and among religious communities about the transparency and use of church contributions in Nigeria.
