CBN: Nigerian court affirms NIBSS authority to manage BVN
Stay Ahead with OsundailyNG - Your Daily Dose of Nigerian News & Insights

Nigeria’s Federal High Court in Abuja on Friday affirmed the authority of the Nigeria Inter-Bank Settlement System, NIBSS, to manage the Bank Verification Number, BVN, database across the country, in line with the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, Act and other relevant banking laws.

This is according to a judgment delivered by Justice James Omotosho on Friday.

NIBSS’s counsel, Wolemi Esan, Senior Advocate of Nigeria, and Kofo Abdulsalam-Alada, lead counsel for the CBN, among others, had sought a restraining order to prevent any institution in Nigeria from challenging the agency’s statutory authority to maintain and manage the BVN database.

This comes as NIBSS had alleged that Digital Rights Lawyers Initiative filed multiple suits, either directly or through proxies, challenging its authority to manage the BVN database and claiming that such management violates constitutional privacy rights.

However, Justice Omotosho, delivering his judgment, said the BVN does not infringe on the constitutional right to privacy.

“The initiative does not infringe on the constitutional right to privacy but rather serves as a necessary tool for safeguarding public interest and enhancing financial security.

“NIBSS has the power to manage the BVN,” the judge said, citing relevant CBN laws.

“The court grants the reliefs of NIBSS as prayed,” he stated.

Stay Ahead with OsundailyNG - Your Daily Dose of Nigerian News & Insights

Excitement is mounting around the world as preparations begin for the highly anticipated 14th edition of the Healing Streams Live Healing Services with Pastor Chris, scheduled for July 18 to 20, 2025. Renowned as one of the largest global healing crusades, the event has touched billions of lives with awe-inspiring miracles and powerful testimonies — and this upcoming edition promises even greater manifestations of healing and transformation.

Over three power-packed days, participants from every nation will connect onsite and virtually to witness and experience the manifest power of God. Validated reports of healing from terminal illnesses, restoration from long-standing afflictions, and testimonies of complete life turnarounds have consistently emerged from past editions, marking this crusade as a divine event of historic proportions.

Registration is completely free and open to everyone via herald.healingstreams.tv. Those requiring healing for themselves or loved ones are encouraged to indicate this during registration to receive tailored guidance and preparatory support ahead of the program.

A Global Move of God’s Power

At the heart of the Healing Streams Live Healing Services is a divine mandate—to take healing to the nations—a vision championed by Pastor Chris Oyakhilome, founder and president of Loveworld Inc. With unwavering faith in the authority of God’s Word, Pastor Chris continues to lead a worldwide movement of supernatural healing and transformation.

Speaking on the reality of miracles and the believer’s right to divine health, Pastor Chris passionately affirms: “Miracles are real, and you will be healed—if only you would just believe! Jesus commanded us to take healing to the nations, and that’s why I say to you, ‘I bring you healing.’ It doesn’t matter where you are watching from or the pain you’re enduring—what matters is that Jesus loves you and wants you well.”

These words are not merely inspirational—they reflect the daily reality experienced by millions through the Healing Streams Live Healing Services. In every edition, the program breaks new ground, reaching people across borders, time zones, languages, and even medical limitations.

Each service offers an enlivening experience, marked by anointed worship, revelatory teachings, fervent intercessory prayer, and direct healing ministrations. The result? A continuous stream of phenomenal testimonies—from the reversal of terminal diagnoses to the restoration of lives burdened by affliction and lack.

Global Access to Healing: Bridging Language Barriers Worldwide

The Live Healing Services will be streamed live and simultaneously translated into all languages and dialects worldwide, ensuring no language barrier can hinder anyone from accessing the power of God

Viewers can join the services live on Healing Streams TV, all Loveworld networks, and through major terrestrial TV and radio stations worldwide, bringing the transformative power of God directly into homes, communities, and nations everywhere.

Unprecedented Global Preparations

As the edition draws near, a wave of spiritual momentum is sweeping across nations, sparking unparalleled global anticipation and preparation that’s uniting millions in prayer and outreach. From every continent, expectations of faith continue to pour in—each one a reflection of the deep hunger for God’s power and intervention.

Zane from the United States shares his anticipation: “Since Pastor Chris declared that this edition will mark a massive global move of the Spirit like the world has never seen, my expectations have soared—not just for my personal life, but for my entire nation. I’m eager to witness God’s power on a new and higher level during this program.”

Hannah from Namibia expresses her faith: “I am believing God for a divine miracle at this Healing Streams. I know He can heal me from the torment and pain I’ve endured for the past three years. The same God who healed others in the last edition will do it for me, too.”

In response to this collective yearning for divine intervention, a global 24/7 prayer chain is underway on myprayerclouds.org. Through this platform, believers around the world are committing to 15-minute prayer slots, ensuring an unbroken stream of intercession and spiritual preparation in the days leading up to the event.

Alongside the prayer chain, millions are also conducting healing outreaches and crusades using the Healing to the Nations Magazine, taking hope and faith to the sick, the oppressed, and the unreached. These coordinated efforts are transforming communities and building a faith-charged atmosphere ripe for miracles.

You, too, can visit www.prayerclouds.org to select your prayer slot and join believers worldwide in making tremendous power available.

Life-Changing Miracles from the March Edition.

The last edition of the program demonstrated God’s miraculous healing power in spades.

Dmitry Hyon of South Korea endured severe spinal pain across his cervical, thoracic, and lumbar regions for over 20 years. Despite years of treatment, surgery was the last resort —a prospect Dmitry hesitated to face. Everything changed when he attended the March edition of the program when Pastor Chris took him by the hand and declared, “He’s free.”  In that moment, Dmitry experienced a powerful surge of God’s healing presence.

Today, Dmitry joyfully testifies: “The headaches are gone. The most important thing is that there is joy in my soul—it fills me. There are no more restrictions, and I can carry out my daily activities without difficulties. Thank you, Pastor Chris. I love you very much.”

Another life forever changed is that of Rinnie from the Solomon Islands, who suffered from ulcers and hypertension for many years. However, during the Healing Streams service, she experienced a profound breakthrough. Rinnie shares:

“As the man of God was ministering to the sick, I received my healing. I felt a sense of calm, and there have been no stomach cramps or heart palpitations ever since

These testimonies represent only a fraction of the countless lives transformed during the program. As this global reign of the gospel of Jesus Christ expands, the impact of God’s healing power remains undeniable, restoring health, renewing hope, and bringing freedom to those in need.

Meanwhile, the count-up is officially underway with the premiere of Season 14 of the Road to Healing Streams Live this weekend. This inspiring daily live broadcast invites viewers worldwide to embark on a spiritual journey filled with faith-building testimonies, miraculous acts, and powerful exhortations, all designed to prepare participants for their moment of divine healing.

The programme airs daily at 12:00 noon and 4:00 PM GMT+1 on healingstreams.tv, and will continue through Thursday, July 17, 2025. For more information, visit healingstreams.tv.

Stay Ahead with OsundailyNG - Your Daily Dose of Nigerian News & Insights

A coalition of economic accountability under the leadership of the Patriotic Nigerian Youth Forum, PNYF, has expressed dismay over the style of leadership in the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited, NNPCL.

The coalition is demanding justice for what they described as high-handedness in the NNPCL under the watch of Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Bayo Bashir Ojulari.

The coalition called on President Tinubu to order the investigation and audit of activities in the company.

OSUNDAILY NG reports that Bayo Bashir Ojulari took office as the CEO of NNPCL following the ouster of the Mele Kyari-led administration in an attempt to reposition the company for greater productivity and efficiency in line with the Renewed Hope Agenda of Mr. President.

In a statement jointly signed by the duo of Comrade Olamide Odumosu and Comrade Haruna Gambari, Convener and Co-Convener of the coalition respectively, the rights group declared that enough is enough, vowing to ensure justice.

The coalition of 52 civil society organizations maintained that, “We are saddened that NNPCL continues to be in practice and optics…

“It was our hope that under Mr. Bayo Bashir Ojulari, who was strictly appointed under the banner, vision, and objectives of the Renewed Hope Agenda, there will be transformation in the NNPCL.”

They expressed sadness that nothing has changed since the new CEO took over.

They called on the President to cut down needless overseas trips by the leadership of the state company.

“It is also on record that since assumption of office on the 2nd of April 2025, Mr. Bayo Bashir has not done anything to demonstrate that NNPCL under him will be productive,” it said.
