    The representative of Akuku/Asari Toru Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, Boma Goodhead, has accused the former Governor of Rivers State and current FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike, of orchestrating the assassination of Superintendent of Police Bako Angbashim in September. During a protest against recent developments in the state, Goodhead called for a federal investigation into Angbashim’s death and suggested Wike’s involvement.

    In a video shared by political commentators, Goodhead stated, “Nyesom Wike, Mr. President call him… [sic] they are for the murder of DPO Bako, I can attest to that fact.” While unable to provide more details, she mentioned that she would provide additional information to the State Security Service (SSS) for investigation. Goodhead also asserted that Wike poses a significant threat to the peace of Rivers State.

    Superintendent Bako Angbashim was killed on September 8 during a police operation in the Odemude community. The divisional police commander’s team was ambushed by a cult group, resulting in heavy gunfire and Angbashim’s capture and subsequent decapitation.

    Although there is no direct evidence linking Wike to the crime, Goodhead, the sister of former militant leader Asari Dokubo, held him and others responsible. The accusations add to the political turmoil in Rivers State, marked by a power struggle between Governor Simi Fubara and former Governor Wike, leading to defections, resignations, and the demolition of the State House of Assembly complex. Wike did not respond to requests for comment on the allegations.

    Nigerian fish farmer Tobiloba Adelabu has been in detention in the Benin Republic for more than five months on charges of cybercrime, a claim strongly refuted by his family. Adelabu’s sister, Oluwayemisi Ademola, asserts that her brother was arrested and detained because he couldn’t bribe the police with 5,000 CFA, leading to false accusations against him.

    The incident occurred on June 13 when Adelabu was travelling from Lagos to Cotonou to assist his wife, who had just given birth, in relocating her belongings from her landlord’s house. At the Seme-Krake checkpoint, the police stopped him.

    According to Oluwayemisi, when Adelabu reached the checkpoint around 9 pm, the police checked his car and asked for 5,000 CFA. Adelabu explained that he had no cash as he hadn’t exchanged his Naira yet. Despite intending to change his money, the officer took him to the Commissariat de Sème Kraké station, citing the late hour.

    Adelabu was held overnight, and the next morning, an officer was about to release him when another officer became angry upon learning he was Nigerian and attacked him, tearing his shirt. Despite protests from other officers that Adelabu was innocent, a senior officer took his phone and bag, ordering him to be locked up.

    Due to Adelabu’s ownership of an iPhone, the senior officer questioned how he could afford it. After an explanation, Adelabu was transferred to eight police stations before reaching the Benin agency responsible for combating cybercrime, where he was allowed to contact his family.

    The agency claimed Adelabu was guilty of cybercrime with evidence from his phone. The family was told to hire a lawyer, introduced by an officer, who turned out to be fake. The family paid 500,000 Naira, but the lawyer did little in court. The case was adjourned, and Adelabu was taken to Akpro-Miserette prison in Porto-Novo, where he has been since.

    The family discovered the lawyer collaborated with the police to extort money. A new lawyer was engaged, who charged 3 million CFA but accepted 1.5 million Naira. Despite paying 1.2 million Naira, the lawyer has repeatedly sought adjournments, with the next hearing scheduled for December.

    Adelabu’s family is in distress, and they fear they won’t have the money for the next sitting. Adelabu’s wife and child are suffering, his fish farm is in ruins, and the family is unstable. The Nigerian Ministry of Foreign Affairs could not be reached for comment. FIJ’s editor, Damilola Ayeni, was previously arrested in Benin Republic but released after media pressure and Nigerian embassy intervention. However, there are indications that Nasiru, instrumental in Ayeni’s release, has been held in custody since then.

    Topic: THE ORIGIN OF HAMAS

    in forum HISTORY

    THE ORIGIN OF HAMAS

     

    Hamas, an acronym for Harakat al-Muqawama al-Islamiyah which means “Islamic militant movement” and one of the Palestinian territories’ two major political parties, was founded by Palestinian imam and Sheikh Ahmad Yassin a Palestinian cleric who became an activist in local branches of Muslim brotherhood after dedicating his early life to Muslim scholarship in Cairo.

    Yassin preached and performed charitable work in the West Bank and Gaza both of which are real occupied.

     

     

     

    FORMATION AND IDEOLOGY

     

    Hamas was formed in late 1987 by Yassin as the Brotherhood’s political arm in Gaza, following the outbreak of the first intifada which is a Palestinian uprising against Israeli occupation of the West Bank, Gaza and East Jerusalem.

    At the time Hamas’s purpose was to counter Palestinian Islamic jIhad (PIJ), another organization whose commitment is to violently resist Israel, which threatened to draw Palestinian support away from the brotherhood.

    HOW DID HAMAS GET INTO POWER

     

     

     

    Hamas has a military wing known as the izz Al -Din Al -Qassam brigades that have conducted many anti-isreal attacks in both Israel and the Palestinian territories since the 1990s. These attacks have included large-scale bombings against Israeli civilian targets, small arms attacks, improvised roadside explosives, and rocket attacks.

     

    In its 1988 charter, Hamas maintained that Palestine is an Islamic homeland that can never be surrendered to non-Muslims and that waging holy war to wrest control of Palestine from Israel is a religious duty for Palestinian Muslims. This position brought it into conflict with the PLO, which in 1988 recognized Israel’s right to exist.

     

    Hamas soon began to act independently of other Palestinian organizations, generating animosity between the group and its secular nationalist counterparts. Increasingly violent Hamas attacks on civilian and military targets impelled Israel to arrest a number of Hamas leaders in 1989, including Sheikh Ahmed Yassin, the movement’s founder.

    In the 2006 elections for the Palestinian Legislative Council, Hamas won a surprise victory over Fatah, capturing the majority of seats. The two groups eventually formed a coalition government, with Ismail Haniyeh of Hamas as prime minister.

     

     

    Clashes between Hamas and Fatah forces in the Gaza Strip intensified, however, prompting Abbas to dissolve the Hamas-led government and declare a state of emergency in June 2007. Hamas was left in control of the Gaza Strip, while a Fatah-led emergency cabinet had control of the West Bank.

    Hamas continues to recognise violent resistance against Israel and in early 2008 conducted a suicide bombing, killing one civilian, a mortar attack that injured civilians and as well as numerous rockets.

     

    Hamas in June 2008 entered into a six-month agreement with Israel that significantly reduced rocket attacks which stormed a major Israeli military in December 2008. Israel declared a unilateral cease-fire on 18 January 2009 after destroying much of Hamas’ infrastructure in the Gaza Strip.

     

    In April 2011 Hamas and Fatah officials announced that the two sides had reached a reconciliation agreement in negotiations mediated by Egypt. The agreement, signed in Cairo on May 4, called for forming an interim government to organize legislative and presidential elections. After months of negotiations over the leadership of the interim government, the two parties announced in February 2012 that they had selected Abbas for the post of interim president.

    Hamas’s relations with the governments of Syria and Iran, two of its primary sources of support, were strained in 2011 when Meshaal and other Hamas figures in Damascus conspicuously avoided expressing support for a crackdown by Syrian armed forces against anti-government protesters inside the country. In early 2012 Hamas leaders left Syria for Egypt and Qatar and Meshaal then publicly declared Hamas’s support for the Syrian opposition. Iranian support for Hamas, which by some estimates had exceeded $200 million a year, was greatly reduced.

    The Hamas government in the Gaza Strip, still struggling following the cutoff of Iranian aid, was placed under even greater financial strain in 2013 when the administration of Egyptian Pres. Mohammed Morsi a member of the Muslim Brotherhood, was overthrown and replaced by a military-led interim government hostile to Hamas.

     

     

    The new administration heavily restricted crossings at the border between Gaza and Egypt and shut down most of the smuggling tunnels that had been a major source of tax revenue for Hamas as well as a primary means of supplying a wide variety of goods to the Gaza Strip. By late 2013 Hamas was struggling to pay the wages of public sector employees in the Gaza Strip.

    In April 2014 Hamas effectively renounced its governing role in the Gaza Strip by agreeing with Fatah to the formation of a new PA cabinet composed entirely of nonpartisan ministers. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu denounced the new agreement, accusing Fatah of seeking reconciliation with Hamas at the expense of a possible peace agreement with Israel.

    The new cabinet was sworn in on June 2 but was left unable to carry out the administration of the Gaza Strip. Hamas continued to administer the area, even forming an interim administrative committee in 2017. Later that year the PA began to take over, but, as it was unable to take full control, it cut its funding for the Gaza Strip in 2018 and imposed sanctions. Hamas sought to alleviate the blow through taxation, but the move to tax the already poverty-stricken population was unpopular and led to frequent protests.

     

     

    Funding from Qatar and the easing of some blockade restrictions by Israel brought some relief to the Gaza Strip.

    Meanwhile, leadership changes in Hamas offered an opportunity for rapprochement with Iran. Yahya Sinwar, a senior figure within the group’s armed wing who in 2017 became leader of the group locally in the Gaza Strip, had been a proponent of maintaining relations with Iran. Haniyeh, who replaced Meshaal as head of the political bureau that same year, repaired diplomatic relations and began making notable appearances in Iran, including at the funeral of Qassam Suliman in 2020 and the inauguration of Iran’s Pres. Ibrahim Raisi in 2021.

    USA: Joran van der Sloot confesses to killing Alabama teen Natalee Holloway, but her body remains unrecovered, says judge.

    After nearly two decades of mystery and misery surrounding the disappearance of Natalee Holloway in Aruba, Joran van der Sloot, a long-time suspect in her case, has made a gruesome confession to her murder. Court documents reveal that this revelation came shortly after he pled guilty in federal court to extortion and fraud involving Holloway’s family.

    Van der Sloot had been accused of attempting to extort $250,000 from Beth Holloway, Natalee’s mother, in exchange for information about the location of Natalee’s remains. Following his confession, Beth Holloway declared, “It’s over. Joran van der Sloot is no longer the suspect in my daughter’s murder.

    Dutch citizen Joran van der Sloot is driven from a Peruvian prison to be extradited to the US on June 8.

    He is the killer.” She continued, “After 18 years, Natalee’s case is solved.”

    In his confession, Van der Sloot, now 36, described a violent encounter on an Aruban beach. He admitted to using a cinder block to kill Natalee after she rejected his advances. According to an interview transcript with his attorney, he claimed that Natalee kneed him after he made unwanted advances, leading to his brutal response.

     

    Despite this confession, Natalee Holloway’s body has never been found. In 2012, an Alabama judge legally declared her deceased. According to Aruban authorities, Van der Sloot had previously been arrested multiple times in connection with her disappearance but was released due to a lack of direct evidence.

    Apart from the Holloway case, Van der Sloot had been convicted of killing Stephany Flores, a Peruvian woman, in 2010. This prompted his sentencing to 20 years for the federal charges in the United States.

    Van der Sloot is currently serving a 28-year prison sentence in Peru for Flores’ murder. However, due to Peruvian law, his prison sentence cannot exceed 35 years. He was temporarily released to the U.S. in June to face extortion and wire fraud charges.

    A plea agreement stipulated that his 20-year U.S. federal sentence would run concurrently with his Peruvian sentence, making it unlikely for him to return to the U.S. for further imprisonment.

    Natalee Holloway’s case has remained a mystery for 18 years. She disappeared during a high school graduation trip to Aruba in 2005 and was last seen leaving a nightclub with Joran van der Sloot and two other men. While the men were initially arrested in 2005, they were released due to insufficient evidence. Subsequently, they were charged in 2007 with involvement in Natalee’s death, but the case faced setbacks and their release followed.

    Joran van der Sloot’s involvement with the U.S. legal system was due to charges related to an alleged plot to sell information about Natalee Holloway’s remains to her family. A federal grand jury in Alabama indicted him for extortion and wire fraud. During the weeks between the extortion attempt and the indictment, he also killed Stephany Flores in Peru.

    Hamas & Everything There is To Know About Them

     

    In a startling turn of events on October 7th, the Palestinian militant group, Hamas, launched an unprecedented attack on Israel. This attack claimed the lives of over 1,400 people and led to the taking of numerous hostages.

    Retaliatory Air Strikes and Looming Ground Offensive

    In response, Israel swiftly initiated retaliatory air strikes, resulting in nearly 2,700 casualties in Gaza. There is a growing anticipation of an imminent ground offensive.

    Gaza’s Dire Humanitarian Crisis

    The situation in the Gaza Strip has rapidly deteriorated. Urgent access is crucial for the delivery of humanitarian aid and medical supplies, a warning issued by the World Health Organization. There is a significant risk of a protracted humanitarian crisis.

    Israel’s Blockade and Demands

    Israel imposed a blockade on the Gaza Strip, blocking the supply of essential goods such as food, water, fuel, and electricity, following the Hamas attacks. Israel insists it will maintain this “siege” until Hamas releases the hostages.

    Critical Healthcare and Depleting Resources

    Most hospitals in Gaza are non-operational, and waste is accumulating. Access to running water is limited, raising concerns of dehydration and waterborne diseases. The situation is dire, with lives at risk due to the lack of water.

    Forced Relocation and Attacks on Evacuees

    Around 600,000 residents from northern Gaza were ordered to move south of the Wadi Gaza river in preparation for a presumed ground invasion. Tragically, those fleeing have been attacked, including women and young children, during evacuation.

    Overcrowded Shelters and Scarce Resources

    The population of Khan Younis has surged from 400,000 to over a million, with people taking refuge in the streets. Essential services are stretched to the limit, and there are lengthy queues for basic necessities such as bread.

    Ongoing Violence and High Casualties

    Further violence erupted, leading to over 100 casualties from strikes in Khan Younis and near the Rafah border crossing, as reported by local officials.

    Hamas’s Position and Calls for Evacuation

    Hamas, the ruling authority in Gaza, urged civilians to disregard the evacuation order from the north. Israel subsequently confirmed that “a few hundred thousand” people were still in the north and encouraged them to evacuate.

    Map showing route of evacuation in Gaza

    Rafah Border Crossing: A Critical Lifeline

    Rafah, located in the southern part of Gaza and bordering Egypt’s Sinai desert, is the primary entry and exit point for civilians and humanitarian aid, as the other border crossings remain closed.

    International Aid Efforts and Uncertain Access

    Aid organizations have conveyed that numerous trucks carrying vital supplies are en route to the border from the Egyptian side. However, the timing of their entry into Gaza remains uncertain.

    Global Diplomatic Initiatives

    US nationals in Gaza have been advised to move toward the Rafah crossing, with US Secretary of State Antony Blinken announcing its opening for aid, albeit without specific timing. The UK’s foreign secretary, James Cleverly, is actively collaborating with regional powers to reopen the border.

    Israel’s Goals and Readiness

    Israel’s stated objectives include destroying Hamas and securing the release of hostages held in Gaza, with an estimated 199 individuals in captivity. Israel has mobilized a significant military presence, including tens of thousands of troops, tanks, and artillery.

    Preparation and Targeting of Hamas Infrastructure

    Israel’s military has made extensive preparations for an offensive, involving thousands of airstrikes aimed at Hamas commanders and control centers. The use of explosives to destroy Hamas’s extensive network of underground tunnels is anticipated, as entering them is fraught with peril.

    Close-Quarters Combat and Troop Estimates

    Engaging in close-quarters combat in densely populated urban areas poses a significant challenge. Israel estimates that Hamas has approximately 30,000 troops equipped with automatic rifles, rocket-propelled grenades, and anti-tank missiles.

    Hamas: Background and Objectives

    Hamas is a Palestinian militant group that has governed the Gaza Strip since 2007. Its core objective is Israel’s destruction, with the aim of establishing an Islamic state in its place. Hamas has engaged in multiple conflicts with Israel and has fired rockets and conducted deadly attacks.

    Graphic based on 2021 Israeli military map showing destroyed sections of Hamas's "Gaza Metro" tunnel system

    Israel’s Response and Blockade

    In response to these actions, Israel has conducted numerous airstrikes and sent troops into Gaza during previous conflicts. Israel, along with Egypt, has imposed a blockade on the Gaza Strip since 2007, citing security concerns.

    Global Support and Opposition

    Hamas is designated as a terrorist group by Israel, the United States, the European Union, the UK, and other nations. Iran provides support to Hamas, including funding, weapons, and training.

    Historical Context and Territorial Disputes

    The Gaza Strip, a narrow territory, is located between Israel, Egypt, and the Mediterranean Sea. It has one of the world’s highest population densities and is home to approximately 2.2 million people. A significant portion, more than 75%, are registered refugees, residing in densely populated camps.

    Palestine and Ongoing Dispute

    The history of the land known as Palestine dates back to Roman times and was the center of Jewish kingdoms in biblical accounts. Israel declared statehood in 1948, although the land is still referred to as Palestine by those who do not recognize Israel’s right to exist. Palestinians also use the term Palestine to encompass the West Bank, Gaza, and East Jerusalem.

    Roots of Recent Conflict

    Hamas’s assault on Israeli communities on October 7th was a severe cross-border attack, representing the most significant challenge Israel has faced in over a generation. The attack breached the barrier between Gaza and Israel, with devastating consequences.

    Tensions and High Palestinian Casualties

    Tensions between Israelis and Palestinians have been escalating, resulting in the deadliest year on record for Palestinians in the Israeli-occupied West Bank. This rise in casualties could have motivated Hamas to strike Israel with a spectacular attack.

    Hamas’s Goals and International Involvement

    Hamas may have aimed to score a significant propaganda victory to boost its popularity among Palestinians. Additionally, the attack could be a strategic move to pressure Israel into releasing some of the thousands of Palestinians held in Israeli prisons.

    Iran’s Involvement and Denial

    Speculation has arisen regarding Iran’s potential involvement in orchestrating the attack, given its adversarial relationship with Israel. However, Iran’s Supreme Leader has denied any responsibility. The situation remains highly complex and dynamic.**

    Global Leaders and Diplomats Experience Lavish Nightlife at the 78th United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) in New York

    During the 78th United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) in New York, leaders and diplomats from around the world are indulging in extravagant nightlife activities, including high-end prostitutes and VIP strip clubs, spending thousands of dollars per session.

    VIP STRIP CLUB IN NEW YORK AND PROSTITUTE

    Sources have revealed that a single session of these activities can cost as much as $5,000. This extravagant nightlife is taking place as leaders and envoys from 193 nations gather for the UNGA to discuss critical global issues such as the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the Ukraine conflict, and climate change.

    Among the attendees is President Bola Tinubu of Nigeria, accompanied by a delegation of ministers, aides, and officials. While significant matters are deliberated during the day, some government officials are seeking stress relief through the services of prostitutes, despite the exorbitant charges.

    Many of these high-end escorts are flown in from locations like Las Vegas and Europe to meet foreign emissaries in New York’s five-star hotels. Diplomats are discreetly meeting these courtesans in hotels to avoid potential sex scandals, as exposure could have severe consequences for their political careers and reputations.

    The escorts have reported that diplomats from conservative countries often seek these services because they are unable to fulfill their sexual fantasies in their home countries. In addition to prostitution, some diplomats are spending large sums, up to $100,000, for VIP private rooms in strip clubs to enjoy lap dances.

    This extravagant nightlife during the UNGA has attracted a different crowd, with government officials indulging in activities not commonly associated with diplomatic gatherings.

    FBI to release 2,500 documents related to Nigerian president after request filed by journalist

    ByJacob Rascon KTRK logo

    HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — The Houston area is home to tens of thousands of Nigerian Americans, many of whom are undoubtedly closely watching the political situation in Nigeria.

    Nigeria is the most populated African country with more than 200 million residents. President Bola Ahmed Tinubu took office in May 2023 after a contentious election.

     

    Last month, an appeals court in Nigeria rejected claims by the president’s political opponents challenging the legitimacy of Tinubu’s election, including his qualifications for the office.

    Last week, the FBI announced plans to release 2,500 documents related to Tinubu — 500 per month beginning in October — to comply with a Freedom of Information Request filed by investigative Nigerian journalist David Hundeyin and others.

    Hundeyin, also the founder of West Africa Weekly, an online news platform, joined the ABC13 Eyewitness News at 9 a.m. to talk about the accusations against Tinubu.

    Gregg Berhalter said the United States needed to do better than they did on Saturday against Uzbekistan.

    Berhalter tried a new and special game plan, and it worked really well. The USMNT beat Oman 4-0, and they were much better than their Asian opponents.

    Folarin Balogun USMNT

    Berhalter used Weston McKennie in a strange but clever way. He let him move around a lot and told him to make long passes to the right side of the field. These long passes confused Oman’s players, and they couldn’t deal with it.

    Tim Weah was also great with the ball, working well with McKennie and helping Sergino Dest get into good attacking positions.

    Folarin Balogun scored the first goal after 13 minutes, and they kept that 1-0 lead at halftime. In the second half, Brenden Aaronson and Ricardo Pepi scored more goals, and Kevin Paredes even set up a goal that Oman scored on themselves.

    This game was very different from the boring one on Saturday against Uzbekistan. They had more creativity tonight, and it showed in their excellent performance.

    Here’s what happened: The 22-year-old player scored his first goal during this match. It happened when Sergino Dest took a powerful shot from far away, and the goalkeeper could only push it away. The ball went right to the 22-year-old, and he tapped it into the net from very close range.

    Amazing Benefits Of Tiger Nuts.

    In recent times, more people are getting interested in eating healthier, and one food that’s gaining attention is the tiger nut. Despite its name, it’s not really a nut; it’s a small root vegetable. Nigerians have figured out ways to turn these little nuggets into drinks that you can have on their own or with your meals. In this article, we’ll explore what tiger nuts are, what they offer in terms of nutrition and health benefits, and how you can use them in your cooking.

     

    What Are Tiger Nuts?

    Tiger nuts, also known as chufa nuts, Yellow Nutsedge, or earth almonds, come from the Cyperus esculentus plant. These little tubers have been grown and eaten for centuries, especially in Africa, where they’ve been both a food source and used in traditional medicine. They have a rich history, having been enjoyed by ancient Egyptians and the Moors in Spain during the Middle Ages. Nowadays, you can find them growing in places like Spain, Nigeria, Mali, Ghana, and Egypt.

    Tiger nuts are small, round, and brown with a rough, fibrous outer layer. They taste a bit sweet and nutty and have a slightly chewy texture. You can eat them as they are, roast them for a toasty flavor, or soak them in water to make them softer. They’re famous for being used in a traditional drink called “horchata de chufa” in Spain and “kunnu aya” in Nigeria.

     

    Here are eight key benefits of eating tiger nuts, and I’ll keep it simple:

    1. Good Food Source: Tiger nuts have been a primary food source for people for thousands of years, especially in Africa and the Mediterranean region.

    2. Nutrient-Rich: Tiger nuts are packed with good stuff. They’re high in dietary fiber, which helps with digestion and can help manage your weight. They also have healthy fats, like the kind found in olive oil.

    3. Helps Digestion: Because of their fiber content, tiger nuts can help with digestion by keeping your bowels regular and promoting a healthy gut.

    4. Good for Your Heart: Tiger nuts have fats that are good for your heart. They can help keep your cholesterol levels in check, lower blood pressure, and reduce inflammation.

    5. Weight Management: The fiber in tiger nuts can make you feel full, which can help control your appetite. Plus, they’re not very high in calories, so they can be a satisfying snack if you’re watching your weight.

    6. Versatile: You can eat tiger nuts as a snack, use them to make tiger nut milk (a dairy-free option for smoothies and cereal), or even use tiger nut flour for gluten-free baking. There’s also tiger nut oil you can use for cooking.

    7. Antioxidants: Tiger nuts contain antioxidants, which are good for your cells and can help prevent chronic diseases.

    8. Blood Sugar Control: The fiber in tiger nuts can help regulate your blood sugar levels, which is especially important for people with diabetes.

     

    In conclusion, tiger nuts are a nutritious addition to your diet. Whether you eat them as a snack, incorporate them into recipes, or use them to make different food products, they offer benefits for your digestion, heart health, weight management, and overall well-being. So, give tiger nuts a try and enjoy the goodness they bring to your health!

     

    Time to go and make Tiger Nuts drink for myself ASAP.

    **Gridlock Giants: Exploring the Cities with the Worst Traffic in the World**

    Traffic congestion is a modern-day urban woe that plagues countless cities across the globe. As populations grow, so does the number of vehicles on the roads, leading to frustrating delays, wasted time, and increased pollution. In this article, we will delve into the cities that have earned the infamous distinction of having the worst traffic in the world.

    **1. Lagos, Nigeria ????????**

    Topping the list is Lagos, Nigeria’s economic powerhouse and the largest city on the African continent. With rapid urbanization and limited infrastructure development, navigating Lagos’ roadways is a daily challenge. Commuters face hours of gridlock and chaotic traffic jams.

    **2. Los Angeles, USA ????????**

    Known for its sprawling urban landscape and car-centric culture, Los Angeles is notorious for its traffic congestion. The city’s heavy reliance on personal vehicles and limited public transportation options contribute to the perpetual snarl-ups on its roadways.

    **3. San Jose, Costa Rica ????????**

    San Jose’s transformation into a bustling metropolis has outpaced its infrastructure development. As a result, the city has been struggling with worsening traffic conditions. The lack of efficient public transportation further exacerbates the problem.

    **4. Colombo, Sri Lanka ????????**

    As Sri Lanka’s capital and commercial hub, Colombo has experienced a surge in vehicles over the years. The city’s road networks are often overwhelmed, leading to constant traffic jams and frustrating delays for commuters.

    **5. Dhaka, Bangladesh ????????**

    Dhaka, one of the most densely populated cities globally, grapples with severe traffic congestion. Poorly planned roads, an influx of vehicles, and limited traffic management make navigating Dhaka’s streets a daunting task.

    **6. Delhi, India ????????**

    India’s capital, Delhi, faces a daunting traffic crisis due to its burgeoning population and increasing vehicle ownership. Despite efforts to improve public transportation, traffic congestion remains a significant challenge for the city’s residents.

    **7. Sharjah, United Arab Emirates ????????**

    Sharjah, a neighboring city of Dubai, has also seen rapid growth in population and vehicle numbers. With a significant number of commuters traveling between Sharjah and Dubai for work, the roads often become congested during peak hours.

    **8. Kolkata, India ????????**

    Kolkata, India’s cultural capital, is known for its historic charm and bustling streets. However, the city’s traffic is a cause for concern, with narrow roads, a high volume of vehicles, and insufficient traffic management measures leading to frequent bottlenecks.

    **9. Guatemala City, Guatemala ????????**

    The largest city in Central America, Guatemala City, faces traffic woes primarily due to inadequate infrastructure. As the economic and cultural hub of the country, it struggles to cope with the increasing number of vehicles on its roads.

    **10. Mumbai, India ????????**

    Completing the top ten list is Mumbai, India’s financial capital. The city’s local trains are a lifeline for millions, but the road traffic remains congested due to the ever-expanding population and the growing popularity of private vehicles.

    *Other Cities with Infamous Traffic:*

    While the above ten cities are at the top of the list, several other cities around the world face their fair share of traffic challenges:

    **Mexico City, Mexico ????????**
    A sprawling metropolis, Mexico City contends with extensive traffic jams caused by a combination of population density, limited infrastructure, and a dependence on cars.

    **San Francisco, USA ????????**
    Known for its hilly streets, San Francisco’s traffic troubles are exacerbated by the city’s geography. The influx of tech companies and commuters adds to the congestion.

    **Bangalore, India ????????**
    Bangalore, India’s tech capital, has witnessed a boom in both population and vehicles, leading to chronic traffic problems on its roads.

    **Jakarta, Indonesia ????????**
    As one of the most populous cities in the world, Jakarta struggles with traffic congestion due to a lack of sufficient public transportation options.

    **Cairo, Egypt ????????**
    Cairo’s ancient roadways now bear the burden of modern traffic, leading to long and arduous commutes for its residents.

    *Conclusion:*

    Traffic congestion remains a pressing issue in many cities worldwide. To combat this problem, urban planners, policymakers, and city authorities must focus on investing in efficient public transportation, improving road infrastructure, and promoting sustainable transportation options. Only through collective efforts can these cities hope to alleviate their gridlock woes and create smoother journeys for their citizens.

    Irish priest Dermot Doran, who dedicated his life to assisting thousands of Biafrans, particularly the Igbo-speaking people in South-East Nigeria, has passed away at the age of 88.

    Father Dermot Doran, the Irish priest who devoted himself to helping thousands of Biafrans, mainly the Igbo-speaking community in South-East Nigeria, has passed away. He breathed his last on May 19 at the age of 88.

    IRISH PRIEST DERMOT DORAN

    Throughout his life, he played a crucial role in the Biafran airlift, which delivered 60,000 tons of aid to the people in southeastern Nigeria. His dedication and efforts made him a linchpin of one of the most significant civilian humanitarian endeavors in history.

    Mr. Doran initially arrived in Nigeria in 1961 after his ordination as a member of the Holy Ghost Fathers, a Roman Catholic congregation also known as the Spiritans. In Nigeria, the congregation had a strong presence, especially in the Christian-majority South-East region, where the Igbo population predominantly resides.

    Over time, he developed a deep affection for Nigeria and its Igbo culture, appreciating the richness of its storytelling traditions.

    Sadly, Mr. Doran’s passing due to myelodysplastic syndromes, a rare form of blood cancer, was not widely reported when it occurred.

    The Biafran airlift, led by Father Doran and others, marked a significant turning point in the history of international humanitarianism. It was an unprecedented event where non-profit organizations and private citizens took the lead in responding to a crisis. Although the airlift received quiet support from some countries, like the United States and Israel, there was no official government approval for the operation.

    The Biafran war eventually came to an end in 1970 when Nigeria successfully defeated the breakaway region and expelled most European missionaries, including Father Dermot Doran.

    Tribunal Admits Certificates from Chicago State University, NYSC, and Mobil Against Tinubu

    In the ongoing Presidential Election Petitions Court, certified copies of academic and work records belonging to President Bola Tinubu were admitted as evidence against him. These documents, including a B.Sc certificate from Chicago State University, NYSC Discharge Certificate, and Mobil Nigeria Oil Plc certificate of service, were tendered by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and its candidate, Atiku Abubakar.

    The documents were presented through the PDP’s subpoenaed witness, Mike Enahoro-Ebah, a Private Legal Practitioner. Enahoro-Ebah stated that the documents were purportedly obtained by Tinubu but bore the name ‘Bola Adekunle Tinubu’.

    Led by the lead Counsel to the PDP, Chris Uche, the witness also submitted forms EC13 and EC9 nomination forms, as well as letters written to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) as attachments.

    Objections to the admissibility of the documents were raised by the counsels representing INEC, Tinubu, Emmanuel Ukala, and the APC, namely Abubakar Mahmoud and Lateef Fagbemi.

    The witness tendered several items, including certified true copies of Tinubu’s nomination letter (form EC9), payment receipts for certification, an application letter requesting the documents, INEC’s response letter, Tinubu’s certificate from Chicago University, NYSC discharge certificate under the name Tinubu Bola Adekunle, certificate of service from Mobil Oil Nigeria PLC, and party membership card.

    When the PDP’s lead counsel sought to tender these documents, all the respondents objected to their admissibility.
