 AU urges de-escalation as fighting displaces over 180,000 in South Sudan’s Jonglei state The Chairperson of the African Union Commission called for immediate de-escalation and strict adherence to South Sudan’s 2018 peace agreement, as renewed fighting in Jonglei State displaced more than 180,000 people and raised fears of further civilian harm. In a statement, African Union Commission Chairperson Mahmoud Ali Youssouf said he was deeply concerned by the deteriorating security situation in parts of the country, particularly Jonglei, where escalating violence and inflammatory rhetoric have put civilians—including women and children—at heightened risk. South Sudanese authorities estimate the number of displaced in Jonglei at more than 180,000, the United Nations humanitarian agency OCHA said last week. He urged all parties to exercise maximum restraint, de-escalate tensions immediately, and comply fully with the permanent ceasefire and power-sharing arrangements under the agreement, T...

 MFM clears air on 2007 ‘Pastor Robbery’ story


The Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries (MFM) has addressed circulating online reports linking the church to a criminal case from 2007, describing them as misleading and rooted in distorted information.

According to the ministry, the reports misrepresent the facts surrounding an incident involving Femi Jimoh, a man arrested on December 25, 2007, after confessing to police and journalist that he organized robberies while posing as a pastor.

The incident was covered at the time in a Saturday paper, which reported Jimoh’s confession and the recovery of stolen vehicles and other items by police investigators.Newspaper Printing Service

In its clarification, MFM stated that Femi Jimoh “was never a pastor, staff member, or representative” of the church, but “an impostor who falsely used the ministry’s name before being apprehended through proper legal channels.”

“Femi Jimoh was identified as an impostor and handed over to the police after internal investigations uncovered his actions,” the church explained. “The matter was reported to the Sabo Police Division, leading to his arrest and prosecution.”

The ministry condemned what it described as a “coordinated attempt to recycle misinformation” by some online commentators and blogs, noting that several posts have wrongly dated the case to 2017 and framed it as a church scandal.

“It is regrettable that individuals and outlets continue to recycle and reinterpret an 18-year-old issue for attention and controversy,” MFM said. “The facts remain clear: MFM was a victim of impersonation in 2007 and remains a victim of misinformation today.”

The church urged members of the public and media to verify information before sharing, warning that the spread of false stories undermines public trust. It reiterated its long-standing commitment to integrity, accountability, and cooperation with law enforcement whenever its identity is misused.

“Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries stands for truth, holiness, and transparency,” the statement added. “Our focus remains on building lives through prayer, deliverance, and discipline, not on unfounded controversies.”

Founded in 1989, the Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries is one of Nigeria’s leading Pentecostal movements, known for its emphasis on deliverance, leadership development, and spiritual growth.
