" Penso di aver già visto prima quel tipo da qualche parte. Sono proprio sicuro di aver già incontrato da qualche parte quel soldato. Oh Dio, e dove mai l’ho incontrato prima, quel soldato? Quel tipo alto con la bocca piena di denti. E dove l’ho già visto? Chiesi a Pallottola se lui lo avesse mai visto prima. Mi rispose che non l’aveva mai incontrato, dai tempi di Adamo a tutt’oggi. Così gli chiesi perché mai era venuto da noi. E perché poi ci ha portato da bere? Ed è forse proprio vero che quel tipo è quello che chiamano il nemico? «Oh, sì. Quel tipo lì è il nemico», replicò Pallottola. «Senti bene, Sozaboy, noi siamo sul fronte di guerra, okay. E sul fronte di guerra ci trovi tutti i tipi di persone. Ubriaconi, ladri, idioti, saggi e pazzi. C’è soltanto una cosa che li unisce tutti. La morte. E ogni giorno in più che riescono a vivere, si stanno prendendo gioco della morte. Quell’uomo è venuto qui per festeggiare questo fatto.» «Pallottola», dissi, «ti prego, non usare tutti questi paroloni con me. Ti prego. Cerca di dirmi una cosa che posso capire. E non perder le staffe perché ti chiedo questa piccolezza.» «No, non perdo mica le staffe», replicò Pallottola dopo un po’. «Non mi arrabbio per niente. Quello che sto dicendo è che tutti noi possiamo morire da un momento all’altro. In qualsiasi momento. Così, finché siamo vivi dobbiamo farci una bevuta. Perché, come già sai, l’uomo deve vivere.» Questo Pallottola è proprio uno sveglio. L’uomo deve vivere. Mi piace ’sta storia. L’uomo deve vivere. "

Tinubu can’t afford renewed crisis in Ogoni by forcing oil production resumption — MOSOP https://firstnews.com.ng/tinubu-cant-afford-renewed-crisis-in-ogoni-by-forcing-oil-production-resumption-mosop/

[sumitrajput02]

Ken Saro-Wiwa was a Nigerian environmental activist, writer, and martyr who fearlessly stood up against environmental degradation caused by oil companies in the Ogoniland region of Nigeria. As the leader of the Movement for the Survival of the Ogoni People (MOSOP), Saro-Wiwa dedicated his life to protecting his homeland from the devastating impact of oil exploration by major corporations, especially Shell.

His powerful voice shed light on the environmental damage and exploitation caused by Big Oil, which severely impacted the lives of the Ogoni people. Despite his peaceful protests and international recognition, Saro-Wiwa faced severe backlash from the Nigerian government. In 1995, he was arrested on controversial charges, tried, and executed along with eight other activists — a moment that shocked the world and intensified the fight for environmental justice.

By • Olalekan Fagbade Niger Delta leaders visit Nyesom Wike, urge amicable resolution of Rivers crisis Leaders of various ethnic nationalities in Niger Delta have paid a solidarity visit to Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), to convey the region’s appreciation to President Bola Tinubu and congratulate Wike on his appointment. A statement issued by Dr Kingsley Kuku on Saturday, noted that the 60-member delegation of prominent Niger Delta leaders was led by Prof A.W. Obianime, a former President of Ijaw National Congress (INC). On current political developments in Rivers, the leaders noted that Rivers was strategic to the South-South region and could not afford to be in crisis. “As Lagos State is very dear to the South West, so is Rivers State to the Niger Delta. This is because as an injury to one is an injury to all, we feel justified to condemn the macabre dance playing out there. “We join PANDEF, INC, IYC, MOSIEND, MOSOP, Ogbakor Ikwerre and all other responsible bodies in the Niger Delta in condemning the mischievous attempts at the State House of Assembly to impeach the State Governor on frivolous grounds of ‘gross misconduct’. “It is quite unacceptable to us and to the entire Niger Delta. Any person, authority or group of persons involved in stoking this fire is strongly advised to desist from it and allow peace to reign,” the statement said. The statement noted that as a political leader in Rivers, Wike wields the influence to broker peace as both the executive and legislators consist of his political proteges. “They will listen to you when you talk to them. All eyes are on you. Be the peacemaker that you are and do all you can to timely quench this fire before it becomes devastating. “The consequences will do no one any good. It will not also speak well of us as Rivers people in particular and Niger Deltans in general. “Your silence in this matter will not be golden and the world will think you’re playing the ostrich. “We plead with you to step into a peaceful resolution of this matter so that the Nigerian populace will not say that Pompey was drinking tea when Rome was burning,” the statement said. It further noted that the leaders drawn from various states of the Niger Delta region paid the visit to show their support to Wike following recent comments by Sheik Gumi and advocate a resolution of the political turmoil in Rivers. “Hon. Minister, a pertinent area that invites our attention and solidarity with you concerns your recent verbal encounter with Sheikh Ahmed Gumi. Although many people have reacted in various ways to this statement, we feel duty bound to also lend our voices. “To say the least, Gummi’s arrogation of exclusive ownership and monopoly of administration of Abuja by a given ethno-religious region in Nigeria is not only disgusting, senseless but also puerile, hubristic, irresponsible and divisive. “It clearly goes against the grain of Abuja as the melting pot of Nigeria and therefore highly condemnable. “We are glad for the avalanche of criticism against his unguarded statement from every nook and cranny and the denial of his mean and myopic position even by the Northern Elders Forum (N.E.F),” the statement said. According to the statement, Wike is not a political orphan from the Niger Delta as he has a very strong socio-political base. “So, we take very serious exception to the call for the Minister’s sack and to the blackmail on the President with denial of electoral/political support in far away 2027 should the President fail to do his unholy bidding. “We wonder where Gumi has got the right and audacity to threaten the President. We also wonder what electoral value Gumi carries in Nigerian Politics,” the statement added. The statement said the Niger Delta leaders urged Wike to ignore these diversionary distractions and remain focused on his assignment as Minister. (NAN)

Mask is a must. In the absense of medical mask WHO allowed us to use fabric mask with safety protocol. Swipe ➡ to see how to use non-medical fabric facemask safely. Wearing a face mask will help prevent the spread of infection and prevent the individual from contracting any airborne infectious germs. When someone coughs, talks, sneezes they could release germs into the air that may infect others nearby. Face masks are part of an infection control strategy to eliminate cross-contamination. Never forget to WEAR your MASK. @artwithhiba @lainedogelio @cassadee.o Got mine at Shopee P.s Also dispose or wash it accordingly. Misuse of mask can cause other skin prolems like acne. ❤ @popstar_ph #popstarph #imapopstar #MOSOPS #maskonsafetyon (at Bacoor, Cavite) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDIG3LYB3QQ/?igshid=w7vvtfwf8awn
