OF WHAT PART OF THE SANCROSANT NIGERIA CONSTITUON IS THE OFFICE OF FORMER DEPUTY GOVERNOR



The picture shows the office of the former deputy governor what a wonder. I have decide never to run any commentary on the sensitive issues of Biafra The recent Barbaric killings during the last Biafra protest in Asaba, as much as will subscribe to the killings of armless protesters who has the fundamental right, there is no doubt that any group of protesters would have infringed on others fundamental human right and obstruction of peaceful activities of the society, people should not be kill for mere protesting on the street, democracy is no doubt an environment where such is acceptable. of course its an issue I would have love to dwell on so much but will love to leave for another da discussion but do people really need to loose their lives for lack of internal morality, internal discipline. I am not weary and afraid of how Biafra Republic can be attained but weary and afraid of its sustenance and possible internal democracy. what a Biafran Republic where morality will be lost to outlandish decadence, what explanation can one give to an office of the Formal deputy governor, what part of the Nigeria constitutions give room for such governor, what function and responsibility and of what importance is the office of the former deputy governor. isn't high time people really need to wake up from their slumber and get things right, people should let the protest start from the office of the formal deputy governor.

HOW ANTI-MISSILE JUJU FAILED THE BIAFRAN PROTESTER

Members of the Movement for the Actualization of the Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB) and the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), who had ramped up protests at Asaba to celebrate the 49 years anniversary of the declaration of Biafra had fortified themselves with charms against guns and ammunition in anticipation of attacks by the military and other security agencies.
A source who claimed to be a member of one of the groups and was present during the protests in Asaba, said they had gathered for the protests in readiness for any clashes with security agencies which had characterized similar protests in the past.


A witness explained how  they were in full confidence of overcoming any attempt by security agencies to truncate the protests before something went wrong within the ranks of the protesters.
“It was agreed that nobody should open mouth to utter  a word to the security agencies as this would neutralize the efficacy of the charms. anti-missile
“But while the security agents were pushing and asking us to move back, at first we were silent before one of us started screaming that they should go ahead and shoot, forgetting the instruction that none of us should utter a word,” he said. Gong against the instruction given b the Juju man was claimed to have resulted in the lost of lives and several injuries according to the witness he was very confidence that if nobody has uttered a world nothing even if they had used ballistic Missile

AMERICA DEATH RATE RATE RISE IN PAST DECADES

WASHINGTON — The death rate in the United States rose last year for the first time in a decade, preliminary federal data show, a rare increase that was driven in part by more people dying from drug overdoses, suicide and Alzheimer’s disease. The death rate from heart disease, long in decline, edged up slightly.

Death rates — measured as the number of deaths per 100,000 people — have been declining for years, an effect of improvements in health, disease management and medical technology.

CHAD'S EX- PRESIDENT BAG LIFE SENTENCE FOR WAR CRIMES AND OTHERS

An African court in Senegal  on Monday sentenced former Chadian dictator Hissene Habre to life in prison for crimes against humanity in a landmark case that rights groups say could open the door for more war crimes convictions on the continent.
The court in Senegal found Habre guilty of crimes against humanity, rape, forced slavery and kidnapping as well as ordering the killings of 40,000 people during his rule between 1982 and 1990. Habre had denied the accusations and refused to recognize the legitimacy of the court.

    The former President showed little emotion as he heard the verdict, with his face obscured partly by a turban and sunglasses.
    Those who suffered under Habre's rule and their families celebrated outside the courthouse in Dakar, Senegal, as women dressed in bright traditional prints danced.
    The decision makes Habre the first African former head of state to be convicted on the continent, according to Human Rights Watch. It is also the first time that a court of one country has prosecuted the former ruler of another over human rights crimes, the group said.
    "This verdict sends a powerful message that the days when tyrants could brutalize their people, pillage their treasury and escape abroad to a life of luxury are coming to an end," tweeted Human Rights Watch lawyer Reed Brody, who was inside the courthouse.
    Habre fled to Senegal in 1990 after his ouster. A Senegalese judge first indicted him in 2000, but the case stalled several times over the years. It wasn't until 2012 that progress was made on the trial, when Macky Sall became Senegal's President and the International Court of Justice ordered either a prosecution or extradition.
    Survivors described the main forms of torture, in particular the "arbatachar," which involved tying all four of a prisoner's limbs behind the back to interrupt the bloodstream and induce paralysis, Human Rights Watch reported. Another witness brought wooden sticks to court to demonstrate how his head was squeezed as torture

    WE DONT GET INTIMIDATED EASILY- BERNIE SANDERS REPLIES ANIMAL RIGHT PROTESTERS AND ATTACKERS

    Five animal rights protesters jumped over barricades and rushed the podium at a Bernie Sanders rally in East Oakland, California, on Monday night, prompting the Vermont senator's Secret Service detail to intervene.
    One of the protesters appeared to be hit by one of the security member's baton, while another was carried out of the venue by his arms and legs.
    For his part, Sanders did not seem rattled.
    "We don't get intimidated easily," he said, after the protesters had been removed.
    Sanders’ campaign spokesperson, Michael Briggs, said he thought security handled the episode “professionally,” although a media spokesperson for the group organizing the protest said one of its members was “assaulted.”
    Zach Groff of the grassroots group Direct Action Everywhere told ABC News that they have been targeting Sanders because of his message about caring for the most vulnerable.
    “His campaign has promoted itself based on this idea of progressivism and rejecting discrimination and inequality," Groff said, "but when it comes to the animals in the United States and around the world, discrimination and violence is the name of the game every single day.”
    “He claims to be a progressive, but you cannot be a progressive if you oppose animal rights," he said.
    In a statement, another one of the Berkely-based group's organizers, Aidan Cook, said that “Sanders claims to oppose ‘factory farming,’ but what he hides is that virtually all farms in the United States, including farms he supports, are essentially factory farms."
    "What we’ve learned in the case of human oppression applies to animals too: when we see someone as an object, all sorts of horrors, notably factory farming, are not just possible but inevitable,” Cook said.
    The group is seeking an endorsement of full “personhood” for all animals and has previously disrupted Sanders' events.

    BERNIE SANDERS VOW TO HEAD FOR CONVENTION EVEN IF CLINTON SWEEPS CA , NJ PRIMARIES



    Talking to reporters before an event in East Oakland, California, Sanders preemptively rejected any declarations about Hillary Clinton  as the presumptive nominee until super delegates vote in Philadelphia at the party's convention later this summer, even if she passes the threshold for delegated needed of she may likely win
    PHOTO: Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., speaks at Allen Temple Baptist Church during a campaign rally, Monday, May 30, 2016, in Oakland, Calif. At right is actor Danny Glover.

    "I think you know there’s been some discussion that some of the media is going to say the campaign is over, she is the nominee on Tuesday night after the votes come in from New Jersey -- that’s not accurate,” said Sanders, who has been feverishly campaigning in California, where 475 pledged delegates are at stake.
    The Sanders campaign has said for months that it intends to fight until the national party meets in Philadelphia, even if Sanders does not have a take the lead in pledged delegates. However, until recently, the Vermont senator has also consistently contended he will pass her on that front. These days the senator talks about the momentum he will have going into Philadelphia. Sanders comments today were also notable as they come so late in the game, just a week before June 7, and as Clinton stands on the verge of securing the number of delegates needed for the nomination.

    Considering Clinton’s resounding lead among the party’s super  delegates, the former Secretary of State currently needs only 73 more delegates to clinch the nomination. She has 2,310 pledged and super delegates committed to her, out of the 2,383 needed in total.
    If Clinton wins roughly 50 percent of the pledged delegates available in contests this weekend in the U.S. Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico, then she will only be 39 delegates shy coming into June 7.
    "She has received obviously a whole lot of super delegate support, no question about that," Sanders said. "A lot more than I have. But super delegates don’t vote until they’re on the floor of the Democratic convention .That’s when they vote. Sanders added that "starting yesterday" his job was to convince super delegates of his electability against presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump ,
    Sanders has been feverishly campaigning up and down California hoping for a landslide victory in the far west state where 475 pledged delegates are at stake.

    DONALD DONALD TRUMP TO BE PROSECUTED FOR FRAUD, ALLEGE JUDGE OF PRE- EMPTIVE BIAS

    Hundreds of internal documents from Trump University are set to be released as part of a lawsuit filed against the billionaire's defunct real estate school.
    The release is believed to include 'playbooks' instructing Trump University staff how to upsell expensive courses to prospective students.
    Trump has slammed the Hispanic judge sitting on the case as a 'hater' and said the 'Mexican' - who was born in the United States - had a vendetta against him because of his immigration policy


    The internal documents from Trump University will be released following a request from the Washington Post .
    The failed institution is being sued for $40million in New York by students who claim they were defrauded, as well as the separate class-action lawsuit in San Diego that is being overseen by Judge Gonzalo Curiel. Instead going strictly Campaigning, the Republican presumptive nominee spent 12 minutes during a campaign rally in San Diego laying into the judge, boring thousands of supporters with intricate details of the case.

    'The trial is going to take place sometime in November. There should be no trial. This should have been dismissed on summary judgment easily,' Trump said. 

    'Everybody says it, but I have a judge who is a hater of Donald Trump, a hater. He's a hater. His name is Gonzalo Curiel.'

    'Curiel is not doing the right thing. And I figure, what the hell? Why not talk about it for two minutes?

    'We're in front of a very hostile judge,' Trump continued. allege

    'The judge was appointed by Barack Obama, federal judge. Frankly, he should recuse himself because he's given us ruling after ruling after ruling, negative, negative, negative.'

    Trump also told the audience, that Judge Curiel is 'Mexican', despite the fact that he is an American.

    'What happens is the judge, who happens to be, we believe, Mexican, which is great. I think that's fine,' Trump said. 

    He said the case should have been thrown out 'but because it was me and because there's a hostility toward me by the judge - tremendous hostility - beyond belief.' 

    Its seems Donald trump is being defensive as he accused the Judge of bias even before the judge final verdict.

    THE PRICE OF JUDGING PEOPLE BY MERE APPEARANCE

    By Olaitan Adedigba

    How our inner Ego sometimes misjudges a PERSON
    A lady in a faded grey dress and her husband, dressed in a home-spun suit walked in timidly without an appointment into the Harvard University President's outer office. The secretary could tell in a moment that such backwoods, country hicks had no business at Harvard and probably didn't even deserve to be in Harvard.
    "We want to see the President "the man said softly.
    "He'll be busy all day "the secretary snapped.
    "We'll wait" the lady replied.

    For hours the secretary ignored them, hoping that the couple would finally become discouraged and go away. They didn't and the secretary grew frustrated and finally decided to disturb the president..
    "Maybe if you see them for a few minutes, they'll leave" she said to him. The President, stern faced and with dignity, strutted toward the couple.
    The lady told him "We had a son who attended Harvard for one year. He loved Harvard. He was happy here. But about a year ago, he was accidentally killed. My husband and I would like to erect a memorial to him, somewhere on campus."
    The president wasn't touched....He was shocked. "Madam "he said, gruffly, " we can't put up a statue for every person who attended Harvard and died. If we did, this place would look like a cemetery."
    "Oh, no," the lady explained quickly” We don't want to erect a statue. We thought we would like to give a building to Harvard."
    The president rolled his eyes. He glanced at the gingham dress and homespun suit, and then exclaimed, "A building! Do you have any earthly idea how much a building costs? We have over seven and a half million dollars in the physical buildings here at Harvard."
    For a moment the lady was silent. The president was pleased. Maybe he could get rid of them now. The lady turned to her husband and said quietly, "Is that all it costs to start a university ? Why don't we just start our own?"
    Her husband nodded. The president's face wilted in confusion and bewilderment. Mr. and Mrs. Leland Stanford got up and walked away, traveling to Palo Alto, California where they established the University that bears their name: Stanford University, a memorial to a son that Harvard no longer cared about.
    Most of the time we judge people by their outer appearance, which can be misleading. And in this impression, we tend to treat people badly by thinking they can do nothing for us. Thus we tend to lose our potential good friends, employees or customers.
    Remember
    In our Life, we seldom get people with whom we want to share & grow our thought process. But because of our inner EGO we miss them forever
