UK SUSPENDS SOME ARMS SALES TO ISRAEL, DRAWING CRITICISM FROM NETANYAHU. (PHOTO).

 UK Suspends Some Arms Sales to Israel, Drawing Criticism from Netanyahu Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has condemned the UK government's decision to suspend 30 out of 350 arms export licenses to Israel, labeling it "shameful." In a statement on social media, Netanyahu criticized the UK for not standing with Israel, a fellow democracy, during its fight against what he termed "barbarism." He argued that this "misguided decision" would only serve to embolden Hamas amid ongoing tensions in the region. The suspension was announced by UK Defence Secretary John Healey, who emphasized that the UK remains a "staunch ally" of Israel. Healey explained that the suspended licenses pertain to equipment that could be used for offensive purposes in Gaza, while the majority of arms exported to Israel are either unrelated to the conflict or intended for defensive use. The timing of the announcement has drawn criticism, particularly as it coincided ...

WE FEEL BETRAYED — NLC, AS THE PMS PUMP PRICE CONTINUE TO RISE. (PHOTO). #PRESS RELEASE.

 WE FEEL BETRAYED — NLC 03 Sep 2024  Press Statement (03/09/2024) WE FEEL BETRAYED We are filled with a deep sense of betrayal as the federal government clandestinely increases the pump price of pms. One of the reasons for accepting N70,000 as national minimum wage was the understanding that the pump price of pms would not be increased even as we knew that N70,000 was not sufficient. We recall vividly when Mr President gave us the devil’s alternatives to choose from: either N250,000 as minimum wage (subject to the rise of the pump price between N1,500 and N2,000) and N70,000 (at old pms rates), we opted for the latter because we could not bring ourselves to accept further punishment on Nigerians. But here we are, barely one month after and with government yet to commence payment of the new national minimum wage, confronted by a reality we cannot explain. It is both traumatic and nightmarish. Yet, when we told government that it’s approach to resolving the fuel subsidy contradi...

NIGERIA CAN'T ACHIEVE 30% REDUCTION IN MALNUTRITION BY 2025,SAY NUTRITIONISTS. (PHOTO).

 Nigeria can’t achieve 30% reduction in malnutrition by 2025, say nutritionists Citing worsening poverty and food insecurity in the country, nutrition experts have said Nigeria will not be able to achieve the 2016 National Policy on Food and Nutrition target of reducing malnutrition by 30 percent in 2025, especially among children under five. The nutritionists maintained that the country was not on the path to achieving the goals of the policy which would cease to exist after next year. They lamented that since the first National Food and Nutrition Policy was launched in 2001, the government had continued to fail in achieving its goals of reducing the malnutrition burden in the country, especially among children under five. With less than a year remaining before the expiration of the second nutrition policy, the experts cautioned that without increased funding and strong political will on the part of the government, the 2025 target would still be a mirage like the former. Recall th...

 A celebrity ‘Russian spy’ whale spotted with harness found dead in Norwegian waters Russian 'spy whale' Hvaldimir found dead near Norway A white beluga whale named “Hvaldimir,” first spotted in Norway not far from Russian waters with a harness that ignited rumors he may be a Moscow spy, has been found dead. The Norwegian public broadcaster NRK reported that the whale carcass was found floating at the Risavika Bay in southern Norway Saturday by a father and son who were fishing. The beluga, named by combining the Norwegian word for whale — hval — and Russian President Putin’s first name Vladimir, was lifted out of the water with a crane and taken to a nearby harbor where experts will examine it. The whale was first spotted in Norwegian waters five years ago with a GoPro camera attached to a harness that read "Equipment of St Petersburg". This sparked rumours the mammal could be a spy whale - something experts say happened in the past. Moscow never responded to the all...

 Daughter of South Africa’s ex-president Zuma to be Eswatini king’s 16th wife A daughter of the former South African president Jacob Zuma and  the king of Eswatini, formerly Swaziland, have become engaged during a traditional ceremony in which Nomcebo Zuma was among hundreds of women and girls dancing for the monarch. Zuma, 21, appeared on Monday night at the annual reed dance as the liphovela – the royal fiancee or concubine – and will become King Mswati III’s 16th wife. The 56-year-old king has led Africa’s last absolute monarchy since taking power in 1986, days after his 18th birthday, and has been criticised for his lavish lifestyle while most of the population lives in poverty. The days-long reed dance is a traditional rite of womanhood, with young women singing and dancing bare-chested, wearing traditional clothing that includes anklets and thick colourful tassles, some carrying mock swords and shields. Also known as the Umhlanga, it was regarded as an example of Eswatin...

"I HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE GIFT OF CELIBACY. I'M NOT GOING TO BE SINGLE FOR LONG, " CONGOLESE PASTOR MARCELLO TUNASI ON HIS WIDOWERHOOD. (PHOTO).

 "I have not received the gift of celibacy. I'm not going to be single  for long,” Congolese pastor Marcello Tunasi on his widowerhood  3 months after the death of his wife Blanche Tunasi following a medical operation, the Congolese pastor reveals that he is thinking of remarrying because celibacy is not in his destiny.  Having lost his zest for life, he seems to have already accepted the loss of his wife, and reassures his faithful that he will always continue to preach the word of God, because it was he who entrusted him with this mission, not his late wife.  It should be noted that widowhood for a woman in Africa must last for a minimum of 9 months to a year! Even if this deadline passes, she will still receive judgements if she remarries straight away.️  But pastor Marcelo is proving once again that there are exceptions to the rule for men.

ETHIOPIAN AIRLINES SUSPENDS FLIGHT TO ERITREA CAPITAL. (PHOTO).

Ethiopian Airlines suspends flights to Eritrea Capital Ethiopian Airlines has halted flights to Eritrea, citing challenging operating conditions. The suspension comes after Eritrea announced it would end all Ethiopian Airlines flights by the end of the month, according to Africa news agency. Flights between the two nations had resumed in 2018, following a peace agreement that ended two decades of hostility and led to Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed winning the Nobel Peace Prize. Diplomatic sources suggest the flight suspension indicates a deterioration in relations between Addis Ababa and Asmara, though a return to conflict is not expected. The two countries previously severed ties in 1998 due to a border war, and tensions have resurfaced following Eritrea's exclusion from peace talks that ended the Tigray conflict. Ethiopian Airlines, Africa's largest by revenue, announced it would assist affected passengers with rebooking or refunds but did not specify the exact nature of...

 Former Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, has broken his silence on the controversy surrounding his membership in the All Progressives Congress (APC). The former presidential candidate of the party denied reports that he regrets joining the APC. Amaechi’s ally and confidant, Chief Eze Chukwuemeka Eze, made the disclosure in a statement on Monday. He refuted claims that the former Rivers State Governor had expressed regret over his decision to join the APC. Eze stated that Amaechi never granted an interview to any media outlet expressing regret over his membership in the party, and that the reports were entirely false. He said, “Ordinarily, I wouldn’t have decided to join issues with undemocratic merchants on their ill-fated assumption concerning the political life of Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi. “Doing so definitely will amount to glorifying detractors, backstabbers, and habitual blackmailers, who are threatened by Amaechi’s silence in the affairs of the ruling All Progressiv...

 At least 129 dead in attempted jailbreak in Congo An attempted jailbreak in  Congo's main prison in  the capital left at least 129 people dead with 59 injured, most of them in a stampede, according to authorities. A provisional assessment showed that 24 inmates were shot dead by "warning" gunshots as they tried to escape from the overcrowded Makala Central Prison in Kinshasa early Monday, AP reported. Makala, Congo's largest penitentiary with a capacity for 1,500 people, holds over 12,000 inmates, most of whom are awaiting trial, Amnesty International said in its latest country report. The facility has recorded previous jailbreaks, including in 2017 when an attack by a religious sect freed dozens. Gunfire inside the prison started around midnight on Sunday into Monday morning, residents said. A senior government official earlier said only two deaths were confirmed during the incident, a figure disputed by rights activists. Videos that appeared to be from the prison s...

 Don’t be partisan, it will hurt you, Fubara tells Rivers CP, officers Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, has advised partisan police officers who abandon their core professional responsibilities to pursue vested political interests to know that the enmity they fuel and eventually create will hurt them in the long run. Fubara maintained that police officers are engaged and trained as professionals to protect lives and property while contributing to the desired peace in the state as a patriotic duty. The governor insisted that it is, therefore, an aberration for any of them to think that protecting any particular individual or being one-sided in the political affairs to the detriment of the State amounts to professionalism. Fubara gave the advice at the inauguration and formal handover of 100 operational vehicles acquired by his administration to the Rivers State Police Command at the Sharks Football Stadium in Port Harcourt on Tuesday. This was contained in a statement issue...

 Rivers crisis: Wike made Fubara gov, PDP should’ve met him for reconciliation – Ex-Chair, Ulasi A former Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Anambra State, Dan Ulasi, on Tuesday, said the party’s Governors Forum should have met with the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, over the crisis with Governor Sim Fubara of Rivers State. Ulasi stated that Wike made Fubara a governor; hence the PDP should have met with the minister before their colleague in a bid to resolve the crisis in the state. He spoke in response to Wike’s threat to unsettle any governor who attempts to take the Rivers State structure from him amid his face-off with Fubara. Wike had issued the threat during the PDP’s congress in Port Harcourt over the weekend. However, Ulasi said: “There is a crisis in Rivers State, and it developed from the primaries. The governor of a state is supposed to be the leader of the party because Wike was when he was a governor. “Only the NWC can say...
