Church, IT firm develop worship app

A parish of the Redeemed Christian Church of God has launched a live worship mobile application to expand its worship module.

An IT firm, E-knowvate Solution, will manage the mobile application for the parish — Tabernacle of David – located in Ajah, Lagos State.

The mobile development, called TOD mobile app, will foster a live broadcast of the parish worship, including other features such as access to the ministry’s special services like prayer request, counseling, live parish member chat and group task participation, among others.

The parish said the application would serve both home-based and overseas members.

A pastor in the evangelical department of the parish, Philips Otomori, said TOD is a mega church and because of its membership spread, the ministers in the church thought it needful to make gospel of the parish worship and other services available globally.

Otomori said that with the advent of mobile phone, which is now rampant, “it is important to allow the entire church activities such as sermons, run on both audio and video platforms.”

I am sexy and focused — Tamara Eteimo

When A-list movie director, Charles Novia, was asked to name his best five actresses in recent times, he mentioned Mercy Johnson as number one and Tamara Eteimo as number two. Such is the rising profile of the Bayelsa State-born  actress who only recently shot her own produced film.
Here, Tamara  opens the door to her world and takes us through the mind of the girl behind the actress. Excerpts: What has been happening?; have you started music like you said you would?

Tamara-Eteimo

A lot has been happening, although I have not gone back to music as fully as l would want.   I rapped in the movie l am working on and may release the music in future. I have been shooting; I did a job in Port Harcourt with Nse Ikpe Etim, Kalu Ikeagwu and Blossom Chukujekwu. It was great going back to  my roots.

By the way I am producing now; It is my first movie, ‘Somewhere Down The Line’ is the title of this movie and by the special grace of God, I will say that it’s a good one and we did our best in the movie.   On the set were Yemi Blaq, Bukky Wright, Racheal Oniga, Yinka Ayelokun, Mary Lazarus, Adetomiwa Kukoyi, Yinka Salau and lots of other great actors.

The film was directed by Alex Mouth, a fantastic director. In the movie I played two characters.   That is what l call using one stone to kill two birds.   I am also launching my website soonest where all about me will be revealed.

How do you intend to keep with the competition with so many new faces springing up in Nollywood everyday?
Children are born daily and they all have different abilities and selling points. In other words, great talents emerge every day. Just like there are many stars in the sky, but some stars do shine brighter than others without stress.

2015: Fashola condemns call for Christian successor

GOVERNOR Babatunde Fashola of Lagos State, yesterday, condemned the demand by some Christian religious groups in the state that a Christian should be his successor in 2015, saying, “do they really believe in God? It is only God that can insist.”

The state chapter of the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria, PFN, has recently called for a Christian to succeed the governor in 2015.

Fashola, while declaring open an inter-faith conference in Lagos, with the theme: ‘Peace, Religious Harmony and Good Governance: Issues and Challenges’, argued that the insecurity in the nation would reduce drastically if everyone embraced religious harmony.

According to him; “People have said that they want one particular governor and I have ask myself two questions – the people who said that they want one particular governor or said that there must be this particular governor, are they still conscious that it is an election where a choice has to be made? If there are two democrats, they should expect that citizens must have a say in who is sworn-in as the governor of their state.
