The Association of Corporate Affairs Managers of Banks (ACAMB), a banking industry corporate, marketing communications and reputation management Association, has explained the purpose of its upcoming Banking Industry/Organised Private Sector National Stakeholders’ Conference scheduled for Wednesday, August 3, 2022 in Lagos.
President of ACAMB, Mr. Rasheed Bolarinwa, said the conference, the first in its series, is aimed at promoting synergy between the Nigerian Banking Industry and the Organised Private Sector (OPS) in the country.
According to him, the conviction of the Association is that the conference would proffer lasting solutions to the constant discord between the banking industry and operators in the private sector.
“Ultimately, the Nigerian economy will be the major beneficiary of this conference because far-reaching strategies would be unfolded. Our conviction is that players in the banking industry and those in the private sector would have great ideas to tap into from expert views that will be shared at this conference. It is also our conviction that the expected outcomes of this intervention would propel new synergy between the two critical sectors of the Nigerian economy,” Bolarinwa stated.
The ACAMB President added that the conference would bring together the best players on both sides to act as Think Tank for the nation’s macro-economic growth.
Bolarinwa said those to present keynote addresses at the conference include Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN); President/Chairman of Council, Chartered Institute of Bankers of Nigeria (CIBN); President, National Association of Chambers of Commerce, Industry, Mines and Agriculture, (NACCIMA) and, President, Manufacturers Association of Nigeria (MAN).
A panel of eminent industry leaders will also examine various issues and perspectives in line with the theme of the conference. The strategic panelists will be led by the sectoral leadership cutting across banking, the OPS including the Nigeria Employers Consultative Association (NECA), National Association of Small-Scale Industrialists, National Association of Small and Medium Enterprises (NASME), and Institute of Directors (IoD) among others.
Foremost economist, Dr. Biodun Adedidipe, will moderate the main plenary session.
Speaking further on the stakeholders’ conference, Bolarinwa said, “We are providing an open-minded platform for both sectors to articulate and ventilate their fears, interest and expectations and opportunities that will benefit both sectors, the national economy and Nigeria at large.”
He also disclosed that a communique would be issued at the end of the session to provide a roadmap for a new relationship between the banking industry and the Organised Private Sector.
The ACAMB President, while soliciting the support of the media as a key stakeholder group, stated that media partnership in this new paradigm shift of engagements would go a long way in fostering the needed mutual understanding.

Funke Felix Adejumo @ 60: Celebrating an Amazon and a fisher of Men

When Pastor Funke Felix Adejumo heed to the alter call by giving her life to her creator at age 14 little did she know that it was the path to her greatness in life as her steps and sojourn in ministry has been ordered to take a very wonderous path? Although it was a tough decision today that singular decision has made her a teacher, mother, mentor and role model to millions of people across the world.
One thing she is notable for is the fact that you can serve your creator without looking tattered and unkempt as she is known to have stated in preachings that it’s essential for women to dress well and not follow the old order of Nigerian Christianity. Today, through her teachings lots of marriages have been salvaged, lots of homes have been restrengthening, lots of lives have been saved and lots of unbelievers have been converted to believers.
The graduate of English from the University of Nigeria Nsukka didn’t just get to her current status by fluke; it took her years of sheer dint of hard work and resilience to attain the enviable height she is today. While growing up, she faced different challenges being a female child as her father didn’t want to invest in her education but with divine intervention, her story changed for good as she is today a graduate and an honorary Doctorate Degree holder. Her life further had a new direction when she met her husband Felix Remi Adejumo in 1892 and got married in 1984 this further cemented her faith as a preacher. With a rough start in ministry in Akure Ondo State, she persevered, built and stood firmly by her husband helping him nurture the Agape Christian ministry that used to be moribund to having over 30 branches across Nigeria.
Tomorrow Saturday the 28th of January the well-respected woman of God will glide into the leagues of Sexagenarian as many across the world are getting set to celebrate her to the high heaven with already planned activities to mark her day; it is worthy to note that; her life and teaching over the years have been centred round not only prosperity but preaches patience, growth, development, hard work, and spirituality. Funke Adejumo remains one of the biggest vineyards of his creator sent to the world to redefine Christianity and win souls to the kingdom at 60, her life should be an emulation to all women.

A Minister Without Enemy Hasn’t Touched Kingdom of Darkness –Apostle Suleman
Published

January 28, 2023
God is not mocked. Insulting or showing contempt or lack of reverence for God’s servant is an expression of weakness and carnality. These were the words of servant of God and senior pastor at the Omega Fire Ministries (OFM), Apostle Johnson Suleman, in one of his recent past evangelistic sermons.
The enemy is seeking to destroy the Church and in his fantasy, he is attacking what he perceives to be the greatest opportunity for destruction: the pastor’s personality. According to the ‘Restoration Apostle’ in the message extracted from four of his recorded old teachings, “while the enemy devises a scheme to destroy the Church, he would find ways to attack the prophet, and as he finds ways to attack the prophet, he would see his person as the area of greatest vulnerability.”
However, Apostle Suleman affirms that while challenges with the Church have been around since the beginning, church leaders with strong faith and the committed flock would continue to remain essential to the Church. The famous Minister of God underscores some facts which he believes are characteristics of a prophet with leadership potentials: he loves God and shows love to people around him because, he says, love is the foundation for a healthy ministry; he has a clear vision and is strategic, he exhibits servant leadership and is dedicated to serving others.
The enemy has different tactics aimed to hinder the word of God. But God is not mocked, declares Apostle Suleman, adding that, “but we are prepared for the attacks and we are prepared for the defeat of the attacks.” “We must put on the armour of God, which is primarily a righteous life. But along with that, we must be aware of the enemy’s tactics because the enemy wants to immobilize us and keep us from progressing in our spiritual lives, and therefore, he will come with many different attacks. He wants to keep us from building and completing the work that God has called us to. Because our enemy is both wise and relentless, we must be aware of his tricks and schemes.”
A prophet of God must stand strong in the face of criticism, Apostle Suleman counsels. “Of course, criticism usually stings and criticism on a public forum stings even more. It discourages the church and hurts the testimony of Christians and the church. But we must stick to preaching the truth at all times and pray to ensure whatever attention of true believers that the devil had taken or captured is recovered.”
Apostle Suleman then warns that he is not a regular preacher because he is aware there are enemies and their antics, positing that any Minister of God who has no enemies has not really touched the kingdom of darkness.
