T.B Joshua Holds "New Anointing Water Service" in U.K in September 2013

The General Overseer of  The Synagogue, Church Of All Nations (SCOAN), Prophet T.B Joshua has announced a special  'new anointing water service' in London branch of the church just four months after a stampede for his anointing water left four dead at a church service in Accra, Ghana.
The London branch of the church has published an alert titled "T.B. Joshua Sends New Anointing Water To UK – Special September Service!!!" and that those who sign up for the prayer line will be granted access to the "new anointing water."
"Today, we are seeing the hand of God move mightily through the medium of the Anointing Water at The SCOAN (headquarters) in Lagos, Nigeria – an instrument God is using to bring healing to the afflicted, deliverance to those in demonic bondage and breakthrough to those struggling in a cycle of backwardness and limitation," the church states in the announcement. "It is not the water that brings the miracles; it is God Himself, since the anointing is done in Jesus' name. As Prophet T.B. Joshua says, 'The secret of all the miracles is Jesus Christ.'"

The fact is that  while some people really troop out to "The Synagogue"  for miracles, others have criticised the miracles from the "self-acclaimed" miracle worker that he uses the power of darkness to heal.

Boko Haram Fighters Kill Vigilates in Borno State, Nigeria

Extract from BBC news

Suspected Boko Haram fighters have killed at least 20 members of vigilante groups trying to fight back against the group in north-east Borno state.

The deaths occurred in two separate attacks on Sunday and Monday, said residents and a military official.

On Sunday, men disguised in military uniforms stormed a meeting of one vigilante group in Bama, opening fire and killing 14, residents said.

An official at a local hospital told AFP news agency another four people died on Monday from the attack.

The second attack took place on Monday night in the Borno village of Damasak, some 200km (125 miles) away.

Attackers crept up on sleeping members of a group, which calls itself the Civilian Joint Task Force, as they slept in a guesthouse and shot them dead, said a relative and a military official speaking anonymously.

Series of Bombings Kill 50 in Baghdad

More than 50 people have been killed with many others wounded in the recent series of bombing in Baghdad, Iraqi capital during the rush hour of Wednesday.

Recently, there has been an increased violence between Sunni and Shia Muslims in the country.

Several blasts in the northern district of Kadhimiya killed at least five people and wounded many others, according to reports. A northern suburb or Sadr City was also attacked.

Sunnis say they are being marginalised by Prime Minister Nouri Maliki's Shia-led government.

Casualty figures released by the United Nations showed 1,057 Iraqis - most of them civilians - were killed in July, making it the deadliest month in the country for years.

BBC World Service Middle East Editor Sebastian Usher says authorities have stepped up security operations in Baghdad. But they seem unable to stop the growing intensity of violence now back to a level not seen for five years.

As at the time of this report, no group has admitted carrying out the bombings, but correspondents say appear to have been carried out by Sunni militants.
