Pastor Oritsejafor speaks on $9.3m arms deal
President of the Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor, yesterday for the first time spoke on the controversial $9.3m cash allegedly smuggled into South Africa by two Nigerians and an Israeli using his private jet. The money which has been confiscated by a South African court was meant for the purchase of arms for the Nigerian Intelligence Services. This is just as the #BringBackOurGirls# campaign group, has said it will soon drag the CAN president and the Federal Government to court over the money.
Following the use of his aircraft to convey the money which was not declared in South Africa until immigration officials discovered it, the CAN president was linked to the arms deal with critics condemning his role in the arms deal.
Explaining his own side of the story yesterday, at an emergency meeting of the expanded National Executive Council, NEC, of CAN in Abuja, Pastor Oritsejafor denied any involvement or knowledge of the deal to buy arms in South Africa, noting that enemies of Christians were fuelling the division of CAN.
He said: “The media has been awash in the past few days about an unfortunate incident involving the movement of funds from Nigeria to South Africa. In the unfortunate news reports, attempts have been made to link me directly with the transaction. So far I have refrained from making any direct public statement pending the time that I would have briefed the leaders of the church and explained my position on the issues to them.
“I believe that the primary institution that I owe any explanation to is the church. Permit me to thank everyone who stood by me these past days by ways of prayers, as well as strongly defending me even though I have not undertaken any public defence of myself.
“I am particularly appreciative of the valuable support of the Catholic Church in refuting a distorted news item by mischievous elements in the media. I wish to assure you that I will not do anything to tarnish the image of Jesus Christ or compromise the divine standard of the Church.
The aircraft is mine — CAN president
“At the risk of being seen to be defending myself, I wish to confirm to the distinguished leaders of the church that the Bombardier Challenger 601 aircraft in question is mine.
“The aircraft was presented to me as a gift by members of our congregation and ministry partners world wide at the 40th anniversary of my call into the ministry. May I be permitted to stress that the aircraft was not given to me by the President of Nigeria, neither was it a settlement for any political favour or patronage.
“With the benefit of hindsight, the President of the country was a guest in our church during the anniversary celebration when the Jet was presented to me and this has been construed to imply that it was a gift from the President of the country.
“The President of Nigeria has nothing to do with the gift of the aircraft. By the way, I still wonder why all those saying this, still cannot come out to show proof so that the matter can be put to rest once and for all. Let me say that this might be an issue of the court in the near future.
“In order to ameliorate the cost of maintenance of the aircraft, I sought and got permit to allow the aircraft fly in and out of Nigeria.
“Based on this, I leased the aircraft on August 2, 2014 to a company to run it. It was the leasee that entered into an agreement with the people who carried out the transfer of funds. Having leased the aircraft to the Green Coast Produce Company Limited, any transaction undertaken with the aircraft can no longer be attached to me.
War against the Church
“In as much as I am shocked and distressed by the incident, I wish to appeal to Christians in Nigeria to remember that a war has been waged against the Nigerian Church. This war is being fought on many fronts and this unfortunate incident is another dimension in the assault against the Church.
“It is clear that those who manipulated this conspiracy desire to create a schism in the Church. The media hype and the deliberate distortion of information that followed it confirmed that forces that desperately desire to cause division and disunity in the Church are at work. Even the devil knows that a house that is divided cannot stand.
“As Christians, we need unity in the Church now more than ever. We are witnessing inhuman attacks by religious extremists against Christians in the northern part of the country while Christian infrastructure is being destroyed in hundreds.
“If we permit the enemy to divide us, our chances of corporate survival shall be severely threatened.
“Distinguished leaders of the Church, please permit me to state clearly before God and before all of you here present today, I am not a party to the movement of $9.3 million from Nigeria to South Africa to purchase arms and ammunition. I am not part of the deal. I know nothing about it.
“Let me make a passionate appeal to our heads of blocks, heads of denominations and Christian leaders at different levels and spheres of influence to please use your good offices to caution and control your subordinates and followers from making public statements that will further polarise the Church and strengthen the arms of the enemies of the church.
“If I offend you or you offend me, instead of talking to media, let us talk to each other within the house of God.”

Russian Billionaire To Build Giant Sailboat Hospital
Skynews report that a Russian billionaire is planning to build a high-tech hospital in the shape of a giant sailing boat.
The billionaire, Vasily Klyukin, said the White Sails Hospital and Spa in Tunisia would be "the most pleasant hospital in the world".
He said he was inspired to build a hospital after undergoing health tests for an upcoming trip to space.
"I will fly into space next year. My health condition has to be checked every six months," Mr Klyukin, who made his fortune from co-founding Sovcombank, one of Russia's biggest banks, said.
"That is why I know this feeling very well, every time I'm approaching the white building of the clinic, I don't feel any joy.
"But I would like to show you the hospital, where there is no room for fear. And so that my son could ask about this hospital: 'Daddy, when will we visit the ship again?''
The complex will be built in the Tunisia Economic City in Enfidha - which has a budget of €50bn (£39bn). The hospital will be one of the first buildings constructed and contain cutting-edge medical equipment.
The hospital project is backed by Saudi Arabian firm Lalei Al Barakah Est and will be constructed by engineering firm Thornton Tomasetti.

Samir Nasri not fit to play Hull City game
Injury concern for Pellegrini, has his side battles Hull in their pursuit to retain the Premier legue.

Samir Nasri will miss Manchester City’s trip to Hull City on Saturday because of a groin injury, with Stevan Jovetic and Fernando also still unavailable due to their respective problems. Manuel Pellegrini takes his team to Hull having yet to win a league match in September, with the 3-1 defeat of Liverpool on 26 August the champions’ previous victory.
Of the injured trio – Jovetic has a hamstring injury, Fernando a hurt pelvis – the manager said: “Jovetic and Fernando are out. They will be ready next week. Nasri also has a groin problem. Agüero and Silva are OK.”
The last two missed Wednesday evening’s 7-0 win against Sheffield Wednesday in the Capital One Cup and Pellegrini added that Saturday will be a tougher test.“I think that Hull is a difficult team playing well,” he said. “Last year, Vincent Kompany was sent off in the first 10 minutes, we played really well and won. I hope this year we can do it in the same way but we am sure we are going find a very tough team in their home because they always play very strong, especially in aerial duels.”
Pellegrini said the Sheffield Wednesday game had proved very useful. “We were not scoring too many goals here at home. In the last four games, we didn’t win our games. We were not playing bad but we did not win so it was important to win in the way we did on Wednesday and I hope this can continue in the future, especially against Hull because in the Premier League we cannot drop more points.”
Pellegrini believes City are now beginning to find their true form. “I think we are starting. For all the team it is good not to drop points near the beginning because finally you are going to win or lose the Premier League by just one point. But for the moment, I think we are not worried.”
