It is a day on which Ecobankers voluntarily give up their free time to help deserving causes and is also a focus for the Bank to make donations.

Story broke-out recently that Prince Ned Nwoko, who just recently welcome a bundle of joy from his beautiful screen goddess wife Regina Daniels-Nwoko, is planning to marry a new wife by the name Sara or “Sar8al” on Instagram, but in a response to our query one of Delta State born billionaire’s aide revealed that the whole story is figment of some mischievous people’s imagination, in a chat with Society Gazette, it was revealed that the lady in question is a sister to Jasmine, one of Regina’s assistants.
We were informed that the lady followed Regina from U.K and she’s at the moment her guest, living with her at their home and she has no link to the Delta Prince in the way people are insinuating. The aide in his words further explained “Prince is not somebody who will do things like that in secrecy, he’s from a Royal family and has nothing to do with the lady, she was brought from UK by Regina as she worked for her when she was over there.
“She’s Jasmine’s sister and the rumor is bore out of the fact that Regina has been sharing her pictures and videos on her social media especially the one where she flaunted a supposed engagement ring with the caption “Wifey”, this must have set the tone of the rumor that she’s engaged to Prince Ned Nwoko, coupled with the fact she has been posting a lot of pictures with Regina’s cars and the house.” He concluded.
Sara who was spotted with Regina Daniels in Abuja over the weekend, has been seen chilling in the pool in Ned Nwoko’s house and also cruising cars Regina Daniels uses as seen in her now-deleted videos which she (Sara) shared on her Instastory. She has also been sharing photos at Ned Nwoko’s house which came with the geolocation “secret location”.

The guitarist whose love for music can be dated back to when she was young, explained her musicianship comes to live after she started learning guitar, in her words “Music is my life, it is what I live for, it is what makes me happy and I developed interest when I was very young but I did not have what it takes to be a musician then and this had seen me being embarrassed from competition especially during my secondary school days.
“I never gave up rather I kept developing myself and this happened till I got my guitar and this helped to seriously develop my musical talent. I can say my instrument helped developed my musical skills as going around with my guitar gives me more time to rehearse alone and generally stay closer to my music and this helped a lot”. She stated.
Though Priscilla sees herself doing more gospel genre of music in the future but her latest effort ‘Gbemileke’ is a song for this challenging moment as it was a song she composed when she was going through some down period that only her mother’s constant prayer could help with and her musical knowledge of writing, scoring and singing the hope-filled song has always been working the wonder of soothing her anytime she’s disturbed and it has also worked for many who have been opportune to listen.
The song brings comfort and assurance especially for the budding youths and young adults who want to make it in life without going through the back doors, and it is the conviction that her music will soothe a troubling mind and help rebuild the hope of many that the LASPOTECH Performing Troupe supported her to produce the track that will be going up form people’s consumption on the 16th of November on major and every music downloading platforms.
According to him, the bank’s donation speaks directly to government’s plan to ensure that healthcare is available to all citizens in the state, noting that most people in the state live in rural areas that are not accessible to the regular ambulance services.
“On behalf of the entire people and government of Ogun state, we express our very deep and sincere appreciation to the board and management of Ecobank for thinking through and supporting us with this ambulance that is built on a frame of a tricycle. It is an ingenious innovation, I must say. We appreciate you for this gift. Most of our people reside in the nooks and crannies, where vehicles cannot access easily. So, this is a gift we appreciate and will go a long way in assisting healthcare delivery particularly our pregnant women in the rural area.”
The Governor further solicited for more collaboration and partnership with Ecobank in other sectors of the state’s economy.
Speaking in the same light, the state Commissioner for Health, Dr. Tomi Coker, commended Ecobank for the donation, saying that the ambulances would further help to address the issue of maternal mortality in the state.
According to her, “We are extremely grateful to Ecobank’s leadership for this. It is part of our vision to reduce mortality rate as well as increase the life expectancy of Ogun state people. This is going to help us achieve this aim, though our state is one of the states in the country that has low maternal mortality rate. We can also use this for other non-communicable disease patients that need transfer. On behalf of all the citizens of Ogun state, I thank everyone here for coming to witness this occasion.”
Making the presentation, Managing Director, Ecobank Nigeria, Patrick Akinwuntan said the donation is a way of supporting the efforts of the government at delivering primary healthcare to the people, noting that the ambulance is designed to reach people at the grassroots.
“On behalf of the board, management and staff of Ecobank, it is our pleasure to present this ambulance fitted for grassroots, so that health services can reach every door step in Ogun state. This is also to complement government’s effort in this regard. We are honoured to have had the cooperation of your ministry of health, headed by Dr. Tomi Coker. To the glory of God and in service to humanity; we are pleased to present this to you.”
Other members of the bank’s visiting Executive Management Team include the Executive Director, Commercial Banking, Carol Oyedeji ; Head, Consumer Banking, Korede Demola- Adeniyi; Segment Head, Public Sector/AgriBusiness, Mojisola Oguntoyinbo; Regional Head, South West/Mid-West, Christopher Olusola; Regional Manager, Public Sector, South West/Mid-West, Victor Inyang and Business Manager, Abeokuta branch, Olusegun Makinde.
Speaking to ‘Sudans Post’, a senior government official stated Mayardit would not agree to further actions on
the contentious issue – even if the parties completed the requisite nomination process – until the planned visit of the prominent cleric in January next year.
“The president does not intend to authorize the formation of states and local governments in 2020. TB Joshua will visit this country in January, and after this, the local governments will be formed,” the official, who is involved in the power-sharing negotiations, explained.
It will not be Joshua’s first visit to South Sudan. The cleric was personally received by President during a visit to the East African nation in November 2019, where he led the President and government officials in prayer for peace.
“Time has come for us to put our differences behind us,” Joshua told the thousands of South Sudanese who gathered to hear his message at the Presidential Palace in Juba.
“This is the voice of God. Our leaders should overcome their division and agree to work together for the good of the country,” he insisted.
“If I am a prophet, this will not go without fulfilment,” Joshua boldly declared, then leading the troubled nation in prayer for peace.
In his comments that day, Mayardit revealed: “We have come a long distance searching for peace. Now that the man of God, Prophet TB Joshua, has come to South Sudan, I believe peace is at the corner.”
Three months later, the historic peace agreement was signed, ending the civil war which ravaged the world’s youngest country since 2013 after a fall-out between President Mayardit and his Vice President Riek Machar.
Last month, a letter to TB Joshua written by President Mayardit, acknowledging the pastor’s role in bringing peace to the war-torn nation, surfaced online.
“I would like thank you, humble servant of the Most High God, for the higher grace and anointing upon your life, and for your love and humility by coming on your prophetic and historic visit on 12th November 2019 when the nation was in a desperate situation after experiencing civil war violence for many years,” the president wrote.
“The world organisations tried to negotiate peace but where human wisdom failed, God has the final answer. You prophesied that it shall be a new beginning for the nation and… now the nation is at peace,” he acknowledged.
Prior to Joshua’s visit, multiple reconciliatory efforts had been made to restore peace in South Sudan, including a visit to Pope Francis in Vatican City where he famously kissed the feet of both leaders.
TB Joshua wields huge levels of influence due to the popularity of his Christian television network Emmanuel TV.
Other African Presidents to have visited his popular church in Lagos, Nigeria include Tanzanian President John Magufuli, the late Ghanaian leader John Atta Mills, former Malawian President Joyce Banda and Liberia’s President George Weah.
