 M23 says hundreds of Burundi soldiers captured in latest Congo offensive The Rwanda-backed M23 group has captured hundreds of Burundian soldiers during its latest offensive in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, a rebel official said, as clashes continued despite a warning from the Trump administration. Last week M23 entered the strategic town of Uvira near the border with Burundi, less than a week after the presidents of Congo and Rwanda met in Washington with U.S. President Donald Trump and affirmed their commitment to a peace deal known as the Washington Accords.

Uche Edochie recalls selling his new car to start all over after his houses were demolished

Uche Edochie, one of the sons of actor Pete Edochie, has recounted his ordeal after building two mansions and buying a car only to lose it all.

He explained that he had a plan for how his life would go and he was on track.

He said he purchased a BMW Series Gran Tourismo for $100,000 in 2012.

Then in 2013, he started building a mansion and a duplex, unaware that it was on marshy land and others who had built in the area lost their homes.

After building, he said his house began dipping below the water level and he had no choice but to demolish both structures. 

He then had to sell his car to start all over.

He explained that attempting to rebuild took years because the economy had taken a nosedive and government officials were also attacking.

He said it was a tough period but he eventually came out of that ordeal.

Speaking of the lesson he learnt from his ordeal, he wrote, “Good times teach us nothing. We grow more in adversity. So pain is essential.”
