Jacquelyn has greatly impacted the Christian community with her strong faith and dedication to spreading the Gospel. As the first international woman ordained by Pastor E.A. Adeboye, the esteemed general overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Jacquelyn 's faith journey began in 1989. Her ordination is more than just a title; it is well-deserved due to her unwavering commitment to the ministry.

Can a Christian Fulfill the Role of a King in Nigeria
When I was younger my mum told me I could be a king because of my lineage. Someone told me while growing up that to be a king in Nigeria, I have to do traditional rituals and I will be the custodian of traditional religions (Isese).
One day, as a teenager I asked my Sunday school teacher whether it is possible to be a king and still be a Christian. He said it is not possible because whosoever want to be a king in Nigeria must be diabolical and must fellowship with ancestral and territorial powers. He even went as far as saying a new king must eat the flesh his immediate ancestor. So I lost interest and hated the Seat of a king.
One day, I met a preacher who is also a palace secretary to a paramount king in this country. I saw how he preached powerfully and demonstrated authority over demons and foul spirits in the conference. When he was through and about to leave the venue, I ran after him and I gave him some token as seeds and he held me. While we walked towards his vehicle, I asked ”Sir, please is it possible to be genuine Christian, I mean a true child of God, a born again and still be a king”. He replied “Yes, a big yes; but why did you ask”.
So I told him what people have told me and what I have watched in movies and all, about a king being a custodian of traditions and performing rituals and appealing to all religious beliefs including witch-crafty, Necromancy etc.
He motioned to me to enter through the other door into his car and he also took the driver seat. He ignited the car and switched on the AC. I knew he was ready to spill the beans about this Africa Royalty thing, so I was so eager. At least let me get the gist from someone that has been in the palace. A scribe to a king will know everything about the king and what they do in the palace. He knows those that visit him and he also receives correspondence for the king. This man will clear my doubt and I will be more informed.
What he told me I can never forget forever.
He started by asking me “Is it religion that determine a king or blood”. I didn’t understand the question. He rephrased it, “Do you become a king because you are a Christian, Muslims or Traditionalist, or become a king because you are born into the royal family”. I replied that it is those who are born into the royal family that can become a king. He nodded in agreement and went on to say
“Eje Oba lo n doba”(Meaning, it is a king blood that can become a king). He added that one becomes a king because one comes from a lineage of a king. And a king is a ruler over his forefathers land or town or nation. He is not a king over traditionalist or Muslim or Christians alone. He is not appointed by traditionalist or ritualist. He is appointed by God through his blood or lineage. God has chosen him from birth as a potential king that is why a son to a king is usually called “Oba loola”(a tomorrow king).
I cut in, “sir but they do say it is the Ifa oracle that chooses for them”. The man laughed and said “even in the Bible there is something called casting of lots. That was how the people on the ship knew Jonah was the one responsible for mishaps on the ship”. He went on to say it is the same they do when there are multiple interests among heirs to the throne to know who is the best fits for the job. But in a case where the demised king has just one son and there is no other family extension to the throne, it is automatic.
This is interesting sir. But it is traditionalist that do install a king, I chipped in. His response made me cry. I will try to say it the exact way but I may not be inaccurate. he said;
It is Christians and Muslim that left it for them. Especially Christians, they are most gullible and culpable. They are always timid. It is not that they are timid like that, it is because Christianity was sold to us in Nigeria with western education. Education place priority on Presidential system of government and we lose value for traditional leadership. Traditional leadership is not the same as traditional religion. By “traditional”, I meant the original or what was on ground before colonialism and western education. Pentecostalism worsen it. It even forbade practitioners from participating in politics and has much disdain for traditional politics, not until recently that they started waking up when they started facing persecution. Whereas most of our Christian Patriarch in the Bible were kings; David, Solomon, even Jesus is forever a king. It is an office that Christians have to be because the office the king determines the spiritual climate over a town or community.
It has now gotten to a level that ritualist and traditionalist who are just ordinary citizens and subjects are dictating to born king(heir to the throne) on who can pray for him during his inauguration. If a Royal son has been a Muslim or Christian all his life without anyone dictating to him, is it at the point of fulfilling his calling to be a king that an ordinary citizen will be dictating to him on his beliefs. He is free to invite his pastors or Alfa to pray for him and his staff of office should be given to him by a presentative of the present day government. If the royal son has been a traditionalist, same applies to him. His cults can come and do their thing. For example, my own King is a tongue lashing Christian and yet is the custodian of traditions(not rituals or idol worship). Marriages rites, land disputes settlement, prayers, teaching of values and history, discipline, justice and fairness, partnering with investors, encouraging sons and daughters in diaspora, attending functions, influencing development and working with governors and local governments personnel’s are traditions he upholds.
This was his conclusion,
My bother, this is how it should be my brother, but it is not usually this easy. “Oro oba, Atari ajanaku ni o”(unease lies the head that wears the crown”. It is not for babes. When you hears ”Oba, oko oso; oko aje”, it is a king that knows the Lord o. (Meaning: A king; not a match of Wizards or witches, referred to a king that knows the Lord)

Shocking Facts About the Bondi Beach Shooting
Authorities have confirmed that the two shooters involved in the shocking Bondi Beach incident were a father and son. The assailants were identified as a 50-year-old man and his 24-year-old son. The older suspect was shot and died at the scene after police returned fire, while his son is in critical condition and is receiving medical treatment. The bold attack in Sydney resulted in 16 fatalities, including a 10-year-old girl. At least 40 others are still hospitalized, with five reported to be in critical condition. Police stated that the father was a licensed gun owner and had six firearms registered under his name. All six guns were recovered during the investigation.
"This was an act of antisemitism, a terrorist act on our own soil at the famous Bondi Beach," he stated. "Yesterday marked a truly dark day in our country's history. However, we as a nation are more resilient than the cowards who committed this act." Authorities confirmed that at least 15 individuals, not including the deceased shooter, lost their lives in the assault, which targeted a Jewish event celebrating Hanukkah. Among the victims were a 10-year-old girl, a rabbi from London, an Israeli man, and a French national. Three children were also among the injured. Witnesses reported that the two suspects exited a vehicle on Campbell Parade near the Bondi Pavilion and began shooting around 6:45 PM. Approximately 200 people were present at the beach for the Hanukkah festivities at that time. Disturbing footage revealed police officers confronting the attackers and ultimately neutralizing the older suspect after a gunfire exchange.
Video recordings also captured a moment of remarkable courage as a bystander tackled one of the gunmen, disarmed him, and tried to turn the weapon against him before setting it aside. Another video depicted hundreds of beachgoers fleeing in terror as gunshots rang out in the vicinity. Global leaders denounced the attack and honored the victims.

Bondi Beach Shooting: A Tragic Attack on Jewish Community
At least 12 individuals, including children, have been k!lled and over two dozen injured in a mass shooting at Bondi Beach in Sydney, according to Australian authorities, who have labeled it a terrorist attack. One gunman was shot dead by police, while the other was taken into custody. The arrested suspect is reported to be in critical condition, authorities stated. Mal Lanyon, the police commissioner for New South Wales, where Sydney is situated, confirmed that at least 29 people were injured, including two police officers.
Chris Minns, the Premier of New South Wales, remarked, "This attack was aimed at Sydney’s Jewish community." Lanyon noted that the massacre was classified as a terrorist attack because of the targeted nature of the event and the weapons used. Hundreds had gathered at Bondi Beach for an event called Chanukah by the Sea, which was celebrating the beginning of the Hanukkah Jewish festival. Chabad identified one of the deceased as Rabbi Eli Schlanger, the assistant rabbi at Chabad of Bondi and a key organizer of the event, who has been active in the Bondi area for over 18 years. Chabad is an Orthodox Jewish movement recognized for its outreach to non-religious Jews. It operates numerous centers worldwide that are favored by Jewish travelers and frequently hosts large public events during significant Jewish holidays. Lanyon mentioned that the death toll was “fluid” and that injured individuals were still being admitted to hospitals. Lachlan Moran, 32, from Melbourne, was waiting for his family nearby when he heard gunfire, he told The Associated Press. He dropped the beer he was carrying for his brother and fled. "You heard a few pops, and I panicked and ran away. … I started sprinting. I just had that instinct.
Police stated that their operation is "ongoing" and that they are examining a "number of suspicious items found nearby," including an improvised explosive device discovered in one of the suspects' vehicles. Emergency services arrived at Campbell Parade around 6:45 p.m. after receiving reports of gunfire. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese expressed his devastation over the massacre during a press conference in Canberra. "This is a targeted attack on Jewish Australians on the first day of Hanukkah, a day that should be filled with joy and faith.
Instead, we face an act of evil, antisemitism, and terrorism that has struck at the heart of our nation," Albanese remarked. "There is no room for this hate, violence, and terrorism in our country." Albanese mentioned that authorities are working to identify all those involved in the attack. "Let me be clear, we will eliminate this vile act of violence and hate, and from it will arise a moment of national unity where Australians will stand together with their fellow Jewish Australians," he stated. "The evil unleashed at Bondi Beach today is incomprehensible, and the trauma and loss that families are facing tonight is beyond anyone's worst nightmare."
