YOU MUST NOT FORGET UDUAGHAN AT DAWN, A BIRTHDAY MESSAGE.

YOU MUST NOT FORGET UDUAGHAN AT DAWN, A BIRTHDAY MESSAGE. 

By Asiayei Enaibo 

When a man is good, we should applaud him by his commitment, when he is weak we should also encourage him to strengthen his policies, if he is bad in leadership, we should tell him of his failures, when he is good, we should rate him by his performance, but today I have come to celebrate a man who break chain of educational segregation of the riverine people for the first time. 

The land was in tension, the night was too thick to move, insecurity collapsed all the sectors, oil was on fire, income was out. The creeks boiled awaiting to explode, has it been that long that you have forgotten so soon some years ago?

You must not forget Uduaghan at Dawn in a hurry. 

The key to security, he unclothed his SSG gown at night, he unclothed his Governorship gown at night, when both of us where sleeping, Uduaghan's two eyes were open, he moved to the creeks with taxi and boat at Night to ensure peace. When the night was a threat to you and I, he was a friend to the night so that we both could sleep and snore freely but today, you have close your mind against goodness of yesterday, when our communities were on fire, someone was a firefighter at Night to all the Lion camps, silent boat at night, as the freedom fighters asked Who goes there? Your Governor Uduaghan, in silent Voice,  commander!  said to the boys, "lower your sticks na him"

You must not Forget Uduaghan at Dawn in hurry in Delta State. 

When you impregnated your wife in love yesters years, He took care of the bills with free medication during his governance, women come home without spending a dime in the hospital, because you know now that your children have grown up you have forgotten Uduaghan at Dawn, when you were having headaches, you have eaten the flesh with failing memories of hatred thoughts, when tribalism eats up your memories, so you have forgotten goodness at dawn of a new day and today you  never remember the night you were once in? 

Yes, when all transport fare was high, when we couldn't  go the University in Abraka, Uduaghan came to us with transport scheme and we went to school on free fare, I have graduated from Delsu on free fare, you must not forget Uduaghan at dawn. 

When a man stands to face the storm on your behalf, say thank you to him, because, there will be another storm tomorrow, for the storm-wager will not be there for your ungrateful heart. 

Don't forget the time of Amnesty, don't forget the time of rejoicing of the creek. 

He was too gentle and calm, he never talked. when he was not moving for peace for your notice, he knew what good governance entails. 

Today, a man was born keenly into the Earth of humanity, and his footsteps and footprints bring that long battle to an end in Delta State. 

Join me, Let's step forth to appreciate Chief Dr. Emmanuel Ewetan Uduaghan the former Governor of Delta State as he celebrates his birthday today as an Ambassador of peace to the South South region

You must not forget Uduaghan at Dawn. 

Sir, in this your new circle of life, I wish you good health and long life for what you have done that cannot be forgotten in a hurry.

Happy birthday sir.

Congratulations.

MOSIEND Mourn late Richman Yinbiri, describes his death as a Rude Shock to ljaw Nation

The death of Senior Comrade Chief Commander Richman Yinbiri comes as a rude shock and a collosal loss to the entire Izon nation.

The Late Commander Richman Yinbiri, the Ibetemeowei of Aven Ekpetiama Kingdom was a pioneer member of the revered Ijaw Youth Council (I.Y.C) who tirelessly fought for the emancipation of the Niger Delta. He is a known traditionalist who was passionate in the Niger-Delta struggle and has been spiritually supportive to the Izon cause.

Until his death, he was the National Director, Culture and Tradition of the Movement for the Survival of Izon Ethnic Nationality in the Niger Delta(MOSIEND), Worldwide.

What we have done for ourselves alone dies with us but what we have done for others and the world remains and is immortal. The life and times of Late Snr. Comr. Chief Commander Richman Yinbiri will forever remain in the history of Ijaw Nation. 

The entire members of MOSIEND Western Zone therefore mourn his death and pray the Almighty God to give his family, friends and the  Ijaw Nation the fortitude to bear this collosal loss. May his soul rest on.

Trump to Launch his Own Social Media Platform in November

Trump to Launch his Own Social Media Platform in November

Former U.S. President, Donald Trump has announced on Wednesday that he will launch his own social media platform known as, TRUTH Social.

According to a Press Release by Trump Media and Technology Group (TMTG), Trump’s new social network is set to launch a beta version in November, which will be available to invited guests only. Its national rollout is expected in the first quarter of 2022, the press release said.

Trump signaled his aspirations to create a rival social media platform after he was kicked off from several social media platforms. Earlier this year, major social media firms including Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube, banned or suspended Trump for violating their policies following the Jan 6, attack on the Capitol.

“I created TRUTH Social and TMTG to stand up to the tyranny of Big Tech. We live in a world where the Taliban has a huge presence on Twitter, yet your favorite American President has been silenced,” Trump said in the statement.

Trump said that the company’s mission is to create “a rival to the liberal media consortium and fight back against the Big Tech companies.”

TRUTH Social App will be launched through a new company formed by a merger of the Trump Media and Technology Group and Digital World Acquisition Corp, listed on the Nasdaq, as per its statement. (By the way, marketing materials for TRUTH’s iOS app show a screenshot with a list of posts from publications including The New York Times, Variety, Fox News and TechCrunch.
