 DON'T BLOCK THE WAY: Why Obstructing Public Roads Must Be Discouraged By Bonaventure Alufo  For many residents of Anambra State, a journey that should take just 15 minutes often stretches into hours, especially during the morning and evening rush. While population growth contributes to traffic congestion, another major cause is the increasing encroachment on public roads, setbacks and drainage channels by illegal structures. Across major cities in the state, buildings, fences, kiosks and other developments have gradually taken over spaces meant for public access and infrastructure. Some property owners extend their fences into road corridors, while others erect structures on drainage channels, creating obstacles that hinder movement and violate urban planning regulations.

VATICAN OFFICIALS SAID TODAY THAT POPE FRANCIS WAS RESTING PEACEFULLY AFTER SUFFERING A BREATHING CRISIS FRIDAY. (PHOTO).

 


Vatican officials said Saturday Pope Francis was resting peacefully after suffering a breathing crisis Friday.


“The pope spent a peaceful night and is resting,” the Vatican said in a statement.


Francis had a setback Friday during his stay at Rome’s Gemelli Hospital, where he has been for the last two weeks.


The Vatican said an “isolated breathing incident” caused the 88-year-old pontiff to inhale his vomit, which required noninvasive mechanical ventilation.

'Our heart is on 10th floor of Gemelli' - hospital staff march to Vatican for Pope

Braving the rain, healthcare workers from Gemelli Hospital, where Pope Francis is undergoing treatment for double pneumonia, made a pilgrimage to St. Peter's Basilica on Saturday (March 1).

 

Hundreds of hospital staff holding umbrellas walked down the Via della Conciliazione, a road leading up to St Peter's Basilica at the Vatican, praying for Pope Francis.

 

The pilgrimage was part of the Jubilee Audience with the pope, which was cancelled after he had been in hospital for just over two weeks fighting double pneumonia.

 

On Saturday morning the Vatican said the pope had a peaceful night and had been resting after a health setback the day before.

 

The 88-year-old pontiff experienced a breathing crisis on Friday (February 28), renewing concerns over his well-being.

 

A Vatican official, who did not wish to be named because he was not authorized to discuss the pope's health, said Francis had not had another respiratory crisis since then.

 

In a one-line statement, the Vatican said the night had passed peacefully. The official said the pope had breakfast, including a cup of coffee. The next detailed medical bulletin is expected at around 7 p.m. (1800 GMT).
