CAN’T HAVE JOY OR VOTING—WITHOUT JESUS!
When you kick God and Jesus Christ out of society (as American has continually been trying to do since the 1950s) why are we ‘shocked’ when those who lead the charge to push them out are dismayed at the bitter fruit of their efforts? When God and Jesus Christ are pushed out, who comes to fill the vacuum? None other than Satan himself.

WHEN YOUR MENTOR NEEDS ENCOURAGEMENT
Over the years, it has become fashionable for people to ‘cry out’ for mentors to help them—or someone in their group. During my days as a Probation Officer with my county juvenile court, the parents of clients would occasionally say to me: “Well, my child would do better IF they had a mentor.” They have something better than a mentor—they’re called ‘parents.’
Let’s be honest. Our modern society, often led by ‘the wizards of smart’ and the social

A group, Okpebholo Change Movement, has explained why the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate, Senator Monday Okpebholo, has not chosen to run from pillar to post with his work plan for the development of Edo State.
“Edo requires a governor with sound vision, dedication and focus, one who will bring his ingenuity to bear in the management of the state’s economic potential and the natural endowments. In Edo State today, there is growing fervor for what Senator Monday Okpebholo stands for. Mo
HEY KAMALA—WHERE’S THE POLICY, BABY?
Just wanted to throw this into the mix: The second member of ‘The Squad’ this year LOST their seat in Congress. They were ‘primaried out’ by more moderate Democrats. The first member of ‘The Squad’ that fell a few months ago was Jamaal Bowman out of New York. Cori Bush of Missouri lost her congressional seat the other night. There could be more ‘casualties’ in the primary process, as folks are getting tired of high food, rent, gas, and unemplo
NABJ: WHERE WERE THE BLACK MEN?
At the recent shindig of the National Association of Black Journalists gathering in Chicago, the stage had former President Donald J. Trump, Harris Faulkner of Fox News and two other Black female journalists who didn’t do the profession much good with their shrillness and hostility towards Trump (a DEFINITE no-no for professional news gatherers).
Sadly, the entire event made the NABJ look bad. Trump was right to call them on their tardiness (they were
THE ‘FLIP FLOP’ CZAR AND PARTY ARE BACK IN TOWN
I can’t take credit for the title of my column, this time around. I owe thanks to Business Commentator and Columnist Scott Shellady as he was being interviewed on Varney & Company by host Stuart Varney on the Fox Business channel towards the end of July 2024.
It was Shellady who coined the phrase as the discussion turned to how VP Kamala Harris was having her background ‘scrubbed and sanitized’ as she has been ‘pronounced’ as yet the l
Annapurna Panorama Trekking also known as the Annapurna Panorama View Trekking is a popular and relatively shorter trekking route in the Annapurna trekking region of Nepal. It's renowned for its stunning panoramic views of the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri mountain ranges, lush rhododendron forests, and cultural experiences in traditional Gurung and Magar villages. The Annapurna Panorama Trekking route provides a captivating journey through the Annapurna region, showcasing stunning mountain scenery,
Ahead of the August 1 planned nationwide protest tagged #End bad governance, the South South Zonal Organising Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Dr. Blessing Agbomhere has appealed to Nigerians, especially the youth, to jettison the idea of a protest, adding that it would create more problems than it is meant to solve.
In a press statement which he released in Port Harcourt, the Rivers state capital on Monday, Agbomhere stated that a protest coming a year into the administration of

A SUCCESS PRIMER FOR YOUNG BLACK MEN, PART 8
In putting this section of the primer together about Mental Health, I’d like to say that it is a subject worth discussing—but the spiritual side of the equation MUST be addressed rather than ‘just’ the medication and clinical side. I’ll put it simply: guard carefully the loins of your mind; watch carefully what passes your senses—especially your ears and your eyes—for what enters the mind and settles in the heart WILL impact you, for good or fo
Engr. Chukwuemeka Woke, Director General of the National Oil Spills Detection and Response Agency (NOSDRA), convened a meeting with representatives from the Shell Petroleum Development Company (SPDC) to deliberate on the progress of the Bodo City Remediation project.
The gathering aimed to ensure the project's adherence to international best practices, regulatory compliance, and environmental sustainability.

The people of Eliozu town in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, are outraged by the scurrilous allegations made by Mr. Chijioke Ihunwo against the Speaker of the Rivers State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Martin Chike Amaewhule. In a recent interview, Ihunwo brazenly lied about Amaewhule's involvement in disrupting a health program at the Eliozu Health Center, a claim that is utterly false and malicious.
The Eliozu Youth Association, CDC Chairman, and CDC Secretary have issued a joint statement vehementl
The Director General and Chief Executive of the National Oil Spill Detection and Response Agency (NOSDRA), Engr. Chukwuemeka Woke has underscored the importance of reducing gas flaring in Nigeria, as according to him, “The persistent practice of gas flaring has marred the breathtaking landscape of Nigeria’s abundant natural resources. It serves as a symbol of the missed prospects for harnessing energy, fostering economic growth, and preserving the environment. The well-documented environmental a
CRITICAL CONDITION BY JAMES A. MCMENIS
“When inferiority is allowed to take root in our hearts, it leads to an inferiority complex. This is poisonous. It will negatively affect every area of your life and all of your relationships.”

By James A. McMenis
There is good criticism, and there is bad criticism. Our current world is swimming in bad criticism as men and women, boys and girls—even in the church—do NOT know the true difference between the two. Pastor James A.
WHITE DEMOCRATS VS. KAMALA HARRIS: FEAR OF A BLACK PRESIDENT?
As I mentioned in my last power-packed, cliffhanger of a column about Vice President Kamala Harris, I noted that our politics are miles apart. However, I did note that the Democratic party—you know, the party that ‘claims’ to support Black people and racial justice—did not have the right to push the Vice President out of the White House because of her skin color. Now, some three to six months later, the SAME party that worship

SO, WHAT IS A JOURNALIST?
Let’s be honest. The field of newsgathering has changed with the addition of electronic toys such as Smartphones and Selfie Sticks. This does NOT mean that newsgathering has gotten any better—it just means that there are more girls and boys with electronic toys, but little in the way of ‘upstairs smarts’ to be a good reporter or 'journalist.'
‘Journalist’. REAL reporters hate the term. I should know. I was a REAL reporter for quite a few years before I g
