  A devastating storm in Umuahia, Abia State, caused the roof of the Methodist Church Nigeria, All Saints Cathedral, to collapse, but miraculously, no lives were lost. The incident occurred during a powerful windstorm that preceded an evening downpour, leaving many in shock. The collapse happened while youths of the church were holding a meeting inside the cathedral. Despite the terrifying incident, all attendees managed to escape unharmed, except for one person who sustained minor injuries. The storm's fierce winds also uprooted economic trees, brought down electric poles, and damaged the roofs of several residential buildings in the area. The Bishop of Umuahia East Diocese, Rt. Rev. Best Okike, lamented the extent of the damage, noting that the storm struck unexpectedly. "The tornado had destroyed everything," Bishop Okike said. "The speed of the wind is terrible, and people were inside here, holding a meeting; they managed to struggle out." Very Rev. Bright M...

Biden Commutes Death Sentences, Reinforcing Opposition to Capital Punishment


President Joe Biden has commuted the sentences of 37 out of 40 federal death row inmates, converting their penalties to life imprisonment without parole. This decision excludes high-profile cases such as the Boston Marathon bomber, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, and the perpetrator of the 2018 Pittsburgh synagogue shooting, Robert Bowers. Biden's move aligns with his long-standing opposition to the death penalty, reaffirming his belief that it should be abolished at the federal level. The commutation affects those convicted of severe crimes, including murders committed in prison or during robberies, but Biden emphasized that his action was not meant to downplay the victims' suffering.


Biden's clemency actions come amid heightened political contrasts with former President Donald Trump, who reinstated federal executions in 2020 and indicated his intention to expand the use of the death penalty. Biden's administration has imposed a moratorium on federal executions and, in addition to the death row commutations, has issued pardons and sentence reductions for thousands of nonviolent offenders. However, Biden's decision does not impact state-level death sentences, and executions continue in some states. This move is part of Biden’s broader criminal justice reform agenda, which also includes pardons for his son, Hunter Biden, amidst a wider context of executive clemency.
