A few days, the Incident Commander of Rivers State, Governor Wike was seen sharing palliatives to Rivers people.

Today, Governor Wike is again on the streets enforcing the restriction of movement order and ensuring people stay safe and stay at home.

He has even ordered that all cars seized should be auctioned and sold.

While a lot of people have implored the Governor to bring to bear tact and diplomacy in his approach, giving the recalcitrant attitude of Nigerians, Governor Wike’s type of ‘madness’ is occasionally necessary to deal with critical situations in Nigeria.

I pray your special day bring you lots of happiness, love, and fun. Sending you smiles for every moment of your special day.

Have a wonderful time and a very happy birthday and remain lifted!

Best regards,

The Federal Ministry of Youth and Sports Development has placed the mother of late Super Eagles striker, Rashidi Yekini, Alhaja Sikiratu, on a monthly stipend of N10,000.

This was disclosed on Wednesday by Olaitan Shittu, a representative of the Sports Minister, Sunday Dare, during a visit to Alhaja Yekini in Ijagbo, Kwara State.

Shittu also donated N50,000 as part of the Ramadan gifts to the septuagenarian on behalf of the minister.
Also donated with the cash is a 50kg bag of rice, 10kg bag of wheat and six tins of Milo beverage drink.
Shittu said that the ministry would also be extending the same gesture to the mother of late Super Eagles player, Samuel Okwaraji.

Alhaja Yekini, who spoke in her local dialect (Yoruba), thanked the minister for the kind gesture.
She said,
“I was hospitalised for few days some months ago and I did cater for myself despite scarce resources.
“I need help from Nigerians, but this Minister has done very well, especially remembering me in this holy month of Ramadan.
“Since my son died, it has been very tough for me because I do not have any help from people.

“Rashidi’s siblings are not doing well too, so, I was left to struggle for life every day.”
The late Yekini died in 2012 at the age of 48 after retiring from football.

A statement released by his Family says the broadcaster is in high spirits and not bedridden as widely speculated by his friends and associates.

“The Family of Alhaji Ayinde Soaga, GM, NTA Katsina appreciates the numerous phone calls and concern raised about the report as regards his testing positive to COVID 19,”

We wish to confirm that he is in high spirits, not bedridden, as he personally called in the NCDC officials to carry out the test on him.

Aware that the COVID-19 is not a death sentence and believing in God for healing, we seek your prayers for a speedy and divine healing which Almighty Allah gives.”

In John 10:10 Christ said satan’s mission is to steal, kill and destroy. Since the year 2000, Bill and Melinda Gates have spent $5 billion feeding Africans and saving African lives. It thus betrays ingratitude for Africans to call them satanic agents. Can we not give them the benefit of the doubt? We have produced no evidence to substantiate these rumours, yet we are so prepared to forget all their good deeds and just label them anti Christ.

How can you say Bill and Melinda Gates are satanic agents when Christ said satan came to steal, kill and destroy? For years, they have been doing the opposite of that. It is particularly disappointing for politicians to make that claim. Can you do for your people what Bill Gates has done for them?

Sadly, misguided Africans insulted Bill and Melinda Gates when they expressed concern about deaths on the streets of Africa. But look at Kano. If we had taken their warnings seriously, Kano won’t be a COVID-19 hotspot today, despite having tens of thousands of mosques and hundreds of churches.

How can you have individuals who have not lifted a finger to help their people. Who have not shared palliatives out of their pocket. Who have not done giveaways. Their only contribution to the CoronaVirus fight is to insult Bill and Melinda Gates, who have spent more money on African’s health than their own governments

Bill and Melinda Gates were not satanic agents when they provided anti malarial medicines to Nigeria, or when they provided food aid to the insurgency ravaged Northeast. Now they are satanic. Africa and ingratitude. What a shame!

Right now, there will be racist haters of Black Africans, approaching Bill Gates and laughing at him, while saying ‘did we not tell you that no matter what you do, they will never be grateful?’ Africans. Without evidence, we have crucified a friend of Africa!
