 I want to make a sincere appeal to the public, particularly Regina’s fans, friends, bloggers and social media commentators, to please give Regina some breathing space.  I make this appeal not just for her sake, but also for the sake of the kids, who are very well cared for and deserve to see their mother supported, loved and given every opportunity to get better. Regina has been through a lot, more than many people may realise, and right now, what she needs most is love, support and the opportunity to recover. The video she shared on her birthday gave people a glimpse of some of the health challenges she has been dealing with. As someone who knows what she has been through, I can tell you that this is not a time to judge, vilify or add to her burdens. It is a time to show compassion and allow her the opportunity to heal. Regardless of the difficulties we have faced, her well-being has always mattered to me. It is, in fact, the very concern that brought much of our private sit...

 UK's Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood has dropped a proposal that would have required some migrant care workers already in the UK to wait 15 years before qualifying for permanent settlement. Under the revised plans outlined in the House of Commons, eligible care workers who joined the social care route before May 2025 and earn at least £25,000 a year working in the sector would retain a five-year route to indefinite leave to remain. Mahmood also abandoned the proposed 15-year wait for other lower-income workers, replacing it with a 10-year pathway. The changes follow opposition from Labour politicians, trade unions and migrants who argued that applying longer settlement requirements to people already living in Britain would unfairly change the conditions under which they arrived. Indefinite leave to remain, also known as settlement, allows a person to live, work and study in the UK without a time limit and claim benefits where eligible. Addressing MPs, Mahmood said the revised syste...

 NCDC: NIGERIA’S ₦10BN HEALTH SECURITY FUND COVERS SEVEN MAJOR DISEASE THREATS, NOT EBOLA ALONE The Nigeria Centre for Disease Control and Prevention (NCDC) says the ₦10 billion emergency health security fund released by the Federal Government is designed to tackle multiple disease threats, not Ebola alone. A statement by The Director-General, NCDC Dr Jide Idris, indicates that the funding will strengthen preparedness, surveillance and response to diseases including Lassa fever, cholera, diphtheria, measles and monkeypox. He clarifies that the money was released directly to NCDC, not the Presidential Task Force on Ebola.

It calls for sustained investment in disease preparedness, warning that preventing epidemics is far less costly than managing full-blown outbreaks.

 PRESS RELEASE 2nd November, 2026 CADRE HARMONISÉ ASSESSMENT SHOULD NOT BE TURNED INTO POLITICAL PROPAGANDA I have taken note of attempts by some opposition voices to twist the October 2026 Cadre Harmonisé food security assessment into a political campaign message.

 Tragic update- A Missouri couple who seemingly vanished in September, were just discovered deceased on their neighbor's property, less than 500 yards from their home. Their dog still remains missing. The sudden disappearance of Leo, 73, and Katherine Lindeman, 74, on September 16th, 2026, has left authorities seeking answers.
