And now for some more forensic revelations about our troubled nation!

At The Pentagon Hotel, Yaba Imagine this conversation between GrandMa and daughter in law; Hypothetical and Real Leads About The Origin of the Delta Omicron Variants!

GrandMa: We are so happy to welcome you to Nigeria. And I thank you for your hospitality while I visited to care for my grandson in 1994

Karen. Thanks Ekefre.

GrandMa: You are welcome and we look forward to showing you our beautiful country

Karen. I am happy to visit the land of my ancestors.

GrandMa. Well you know we are a special family with experts in all fields and I hear that Ime’s Placentia was frozen (some say in a General Electric Refrigerator? Why Karen do you know about it and what was it used for later? They say for a Eugenics smear scheme that involved a blend with hair, specimen from a gay Benicia couple and hair at a Fortune 500 lab and that is why you were fired? They say it is called thermal transfer on a special paper?

Grandma: remember I used to watch Martin. Is it true you named my grandson Xavier because you were initially confused his mother was white because he was born with a jaundice condition which was cured by exposure to light at Kaiser, Vallejo

Karen: I think so. I hinted this to Ben at a white wedding in El Cerrito hills in 1994.

GrandMa: Did you think the white woman was Kelly Preston or Kidada Jones? They say these were friends my son met in LA while working as a Newswatch Correspondent registered with the State Department.

Karen: Silence …

GrandMa: What Really Happened in May 2016. Did you hurt yourself from overexertion from an object? Did you bleed from the bedroom to the bathroom or bathroom to the bedroom and they say the Fire Brigade was called. Was there blood on the Mat by your side of the bed and what happened to the Mat?

Karen: Silence ….

GrandMa: My son in April 2016 donated blood to monitor his High Blood Pressure. There were two blood draws on that day after they called him to say the first draw was contaminated. They say the blood may have been smuggled to New York and became synthesized as spray from his missing Oral Typhoid Culture and Anti-Malaria tablets. It seems he was back stabbed in New York and that that person has been labeled a drug dealer. https://investor.lilly.com/news-releases/news-release-details/kathryn-beiser-join-lilly-vice-president-global-communications https://www.vanguardngr.com/2015/02/got-no-mail/ The Post Office has not informed my son about the sresuts of their investigation. Do you know what really happened? Could there have been a mix with your Mat blood and his blood?

Karen: I have no idea but Eli Lilly may know something about it.

GrandMa: Well, I Hope You Get Help for Your Condition. But who poisoned my son and why in 2009 — through food — because he justifiably planned to remarry and somebody saw her picture? https://twitter.com/BenjaminEdokpa1/status/1558075381860601861?s=20&t=kbzK2hL47ywEUTbNA-lwyA

Emir of Zazzau, Shehu Idris, dies at 84, and some more morbid clues about deep pockets and a money laundering trail that leads to London and Holland

The Emir of Zazzau, Alhaji Shehu Idris, has died at the age of 84.

He was the 18th Emir of Zazzau and the Chairman of the Zazzau Emirate Council.

The PUNCH gathered that Idris died at the 44 Military Hospital Kaduna on Sunday.

Governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai, confirmed the Emir’s death.

While describing Idris’ death as “very sad”, the governor tweeted, “It is with great sadness that I confirm the passing of the father of our state, His Highness Emir of Zazzau, Alh (Dr.) Shehu Idris CFR.

Another great monarch is gone. May God grant his family and the people of Zazzau peace. Interestingly his first year on the throne was about the same time I started high school. Five years later in college my paths crossed with another Idris, and that seems to be where all the puzzles started. This Idris whose last name was Aduwa was a dual citizen of Nigeria and Holland. Sources say he was paid to lie about our time in College, money which he used to buy property in London. He is now on the run. He was last known to be in South Africa. Now you wonder how Nambia became Namibia from the mouth of President Donald Trump in his first meeting with African Diplomats. The Idris Spin Is Unbelievable and a clue about money laundering abroad by the CIA for a grime scheme that has backfired. Read More

Kwaku and Idris were both members of the Pyrates Confraternity in College aka Seadogs, and we all know they had some weird initiation rites. In my case the only club I belonged to in College was the Press Club, which published a daily bulletin about campus news.

Pope Francis — A Marriage Without Argument Is Boring

And thanks to my mysterious friend from the Vatican (Laura Acevedo) who helped to reinforce this Dublin, Ireland sermon from the Pope, which is an inspiration. This compassionate Cuban born Lady who lives in Luxembourg, and who served in a monastery for 18 years, sought me out at the Schiphol Airport in 2018 and introduced her Cuban Mother at the Tom Bradley LAX Airport.

Pope Francis Addresses Christian Marriage In Dublin, Ireland — A Timely Focus

Here are key excerpts from his discourse in Dublin, Ireland `` A marriage without argument is boring. Argue as much as you want but you have to make sure you make peace at the end of the day otherwise the cold war gets worse the next day. Marriage is a conscious life-long decision to cherish, assist and protect one another. Today, we live in a culture of the provisional or the temporary. It’s even hard to keep track of the world because it changes all around us. If you do not nurture that love it is not going to last. Your’s should be a commitment to grow that love. Love is definitive. It means you and me, not anyone else. Like you are my half of the orange and you are the other half. It is easy to be attacked by the culture of the ephemeral. How can we experience in the culture of the ephemeral what is truly lasting love? Marriage is unique. It involves mutual responsibility for the transmission of God’s gift of life. Marriage shares in the mystery of God’s eternal love. You are really placing your bets on each other but I encourage you to run that race of commitment to each other. We know that love is God’s dream for us. Don’t be afraid of that dream. Dream it together and every day. That way you would be able to support each other at those moments when the path becomes difficult and when it is hard to see the road ahead.” He also made a veiled reference to the Seven brothers of the MaCcabees in his conversation in Dublin, Ireland. As an addition to this discourse on the state of marriages it is important to recall my spiritual retreat in Nigeria five years ago included spending some time with my Uncle Prelate Sunday Coffie Mbang, former Patriarch of the Methodist Church of Nigeria and Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN). Mbang, who is one of the most respected Methodist leaders in the world and who was also once President of the World Methodist Council of Churches. Mbang, who trained at Harvard, had good things to say about the Clintons, and he supported the Clinton candidacy in 2016. The picture shows the Patriarch with Pope Paul VI, born Giovanni (Late Son’s other name is Jovan) Battista Enrico Antonio Maria Montini. The Patriarch is also in support of my decision to move forward with my life and remarry, and I Know God will help me decide on the right wife soon. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ymVbOL5cB10

For the record President Obama is the only American President who has met Pope Francis and his predecessor Pope Benedict XVI, Benedikt XVI; born Joseph Aloisius Ratzinger. Pope Francis’ visit to Dublin, Ireland in 2018 was a rally for truth, justice and love at a time when the world is utterly confused.

Title: An Elephant in the House Here and There

I was shocked at the issue of domestic violence after being invited by California State University Sacramento (CSUS) in 2005 to cover an African Town Hall meeting on the issue. I was just there as a journalist to report on the issue (in this 2194 word article) . I am glad to say that in 24 years of marriage me and my ex wife never got into a physical altercation. Of course there were arguments but I have never abused anybody. That is Debra’s photo in front of our disabled late son. Is she saying Obama? Photo was taken at Ime’s graduation in 2016. In fact I have never been in a physical altercation. And never been this close to a man. And for legal purposes this article was published in an official newsletter at the California State University, Sacramento. See baby Ariel has proven America a nation of liars!

Sub: Africans in the Diaspora discuss domestic violence at Sacramento town hall meeting

By Ben Edokpayi ©

The subject of domestic violence or “intimate –partner violence” is one many African couples feel uncomfortable discussing in public.

But on November 12 about 50 men and women of African descent gathered for a town hall meeting at the California State University in Sacramento (CSUS) to tackle the issue head-on, with the CSUS Center for African Peace and Conflict Resolution as a host and co-sponsor.

The meeting was triggered by recent instances of domestic violence in African communities in Sacramento and elsewhere in the United States.

In the Sacramento incident a Ghanaian man reportedly stabbed his wife 22 times to death, after an argument between the estranged couple. In another case, a Nigerian man drove all the way from Atlanta Georgia to stalk his Ondo-born wife living separately in Dallas Texas. He eventually shot her to death in her car.

Also in August this year a Nigerian man used a hammer to murder his Sierra Leonean born wife at their home in a Dallas suburb. This callous murder reportedly occurred in front of the couples’ seven-year-old daughter.

While incidents of domestic violence in African communities in the Diaspora are only now coming into the limelight, the problem has long been an entrenched epidemic in African countries where male chauvinism rules.

“It is like a normal thing for women to be treated by their husbands as punching bags,” said Obong Rita Akpan Nigeria’s former minister of women affairs, earlier this year in an interview.

A New York Times article last August by Sharon LaFraniere brought the issue into sharper focus.

The article stated that although women suffer from violence in every society, nowhere is the abuse more entrenched and accepted than in African countries.

Lafraniere’s periscope on the epidemic scanned several African countries, including South Africa where researchers for the Medical Research Council estimated last year that a male partner kills a girlfriend or spouse every six hours. Citing a 2004 study the NY Times article also revealed that nearly half of the women surveyed in Zambia said a male partner had beaten them.

A Multi-country study on Women’s Health and Domestic Violence released by the World Health Organization in November 2005 showed that Ethiopian women recorded the highest incidents of sexual and domestic violence at 71%.

The Study “ challenges the perception that home is a safe haven for women by showing that women are more at risk of experiencing violence in intimate relationships than anywhere else.”

The Study by WHO surveyed 24,000 women in 10 countries. African countries included in the study were Ethiopia, Tanzania and Namibia. Others were Bangladesh, Brazil, Japan, Peru, Samoa, Serbia and Montenegro and Thailand.

Sadly, the study found out that one of six women in the countries surveyed had suffered abuse, and that violence was more prevalent in poorer countries. According to the study, it is particularly difficult to respond effectively to this violence because many women accept such violence as “normal.”

One of the respondents in the WHO study was quoted as saying: “ The beating was getting more and more severe…In the beginning it was confined to the house. Gradually, he stopped caring. He slapped me in front of others and continued to threaten me… Every time he beat me it was as if he was trying to test my endurance, to see how much I could take.”

This renewed awareness of the epidemic has resulted in domestic violence Laws in some African Countries. But even when these Laws are enacted the law enforcement backing is usually absent or muted.

While domestic violence cases are deeply entrenched in many African societies, cases in the Diaspora are seemingly isolated or sporadic at best.

Still, the gathering in Sacramento felt the issue was serious enough to warrant a town hall meeting. And the caliber of attendees at the meeting underlined the importance of the issue.

“We have an elephant in the room and we need to look at what’s agitating this Elephant,” said Dr. Ernest Uwazie, as he used an African metaphor to welcome conferees to the town hall meeting.

Aside from the host Dr. Uwazie who is Director of the Center for African Peace and Conflict Resolution and Professor of Criminal Justice at CSUS, the lineup included keynote Speaker and Clinical Psychologist Dr. Kwessi Ngissah, a former Director of Behavioral Medicine with Kaiser Permanente (America’s leading integrated health care organization); Dr. Boatamo Mosupyoe, a Professor of Ethnic Studies and Director of Pan African Studies at CSUS and Documentary filmmaker Chike Nwoffiah, who was one of the evening’s moderators.

There were also nationals from the following African Countries: Nigeria, Ghana, Uganda, Kenya, Liberia, Sierra Leone and Rwanda, as well as several Christian and non-profit organizations. They included co-organizers Newton Ekpo-Marriage and Family Life Consultant and Chief Lanre Hassan- President of Sacramento Nigerian of Association.

The ultimate goal of the group was to create conflict resolution models and solutions as well as identification of resources that can be used by Africans not only in the Diaspora, but also in the Motherland.

Asking men not to see the discussion as an affront on their God-divined roles as heads of the households, South African Moderator Mosupyoe said, “ As an African woman I want you to know that when we address violence it doesn’t mean we don’t love you. You are our fathers, sons, uncles and brothers –you are all of these things to us.”

Echoing a similar sentiment, Co-Moderator Nwoffiah chimed in: “ What is the Elephant in the room?” he asked.

“ Let’s discuss this realistically. We probably might not have our hands wrapped around it at the end of this meeting but we want to start the conversation. What is it? How is it manifested? How does it affect us here? We want to frame the dialogue and take it from there.”

Before Mosupyoe and Nwoffiah’s stirring introduction of the topic, Ngissah spoke elaborately on patterns, types and the definition of domestic abuse.

“ Domestic violence knows no cultural, ethnic, race, social class, or literacy boundary. The perpetrator may have no history of domestic abuse or violence, and may be generally known in the community as a very gentle, caring and loving individual or family person,” said Ngissah, who noted that the issue is unfortunately downplayed in many African societies.

The Clinical Psychologist then went on to list types of abuse, namely: Physical Abuse (Domestic Violence), Sexual Abuse and Exploitation, Emotional Abuse, Economic or Financial Abuse and Spiritual Abuse.

Ngissah identified stalking, verbal and non-verbal attacks, yelling, name calling, which he categorized all under Emotional Abuse, as the most dangerous forms of the scourge.

“ We think stalking is harmless, but it is one of the most dangerous and takes all kinds of forms. It is even dangerous for our friends and families,” said Ngissah, a Ghanaian.

The dominant thread that ran through many of the evening’s contributions on the subject was the juxtaposition of the African and American cultures and how the two can be effectively combined by recent transplants from across the Atlantic.

Speakers on this issue were as interesting as they were varied. Three sampling’s follow:

“ The support system you have back home doesn’t exist here. In order to feel comfortable here we need to know our limitations. The rules of the game are not the same as you might have heard in Ghana, “ said Ngissah.

A Nigerian Auditor who’s been married to his wife for 30 years had a different perspective. “ We already know the problem. First of all you can’t put old wine into new wine. You can think you can bring your Igbo culture and enforce it here? It just won’t work, “ he said, adding rather humorously,” you go to our African parties and take a look at the face of our women. They look worn out and don’t want to dance. Why? Because they spend most of their time cooking, cleaning and taking care of the home all by themselves. That’s abuse!”

Another Nigerian Dr. Sylvester Okonkwo presented an interesting angle to the clash of cultures and how it frames the issue. “ Let’s not make this sound as if it’s an African problem,” he said.

“ African culture has its own pluses and minuses. Most of us studied here and gained employment here. We have a proverb that says when you are in a foreign land, ‘ learn all the good things there and leave the bad ones alone,” said Okonkwo.

While many in the room agreed that it was tough to balance the two cultures, all were in agreement that the African culture was intrinsically sound and could be a good insulation against the pressures of today’s microwave world where materialistic pursuits and the hurry for results tend to obfuscate everything else.

Citing communication as key, one Liberian man said: “ I think we know the problem. How many of us communicate with our wives as much as we do our workmates? How many times do we sit at the dinner table with our families and say, ‘ How was your day today?” he asked.

Mrs. Marie Washington Maddy, a Liberian married to a Sierra Leonean, blamed the problem on a lack of focus in many African families in the Diaspora.

“ African families have to have a common focus. When it doesn’t exist people tend to grow apart,” she said.

“We are talking but not listening to each other. We all want to accomplish the American Dream and financial independence, but we don’t have the same focus. Families have to work together financially,” said Mrs. Maddy.

While clash of cultures dominated most of the discussion, participants also agreed that many other extraneous elements are involved in the different manifestations of domestic violence. They ranged from the individual’s ability to manage anger, the negative influence of television, breakdown in communication and abrasive personality of the culprits involved.

One Nigerian man also opined that it boils down to the level of understanding between a man and his wife. “ My wife understands me. She knows when to be quiet during an argument. I also know when to be quiet. It’s not about culture but about understanding each other,” he said.

At the end of the discussion, the gathering was broken up into five sub-groups to come up with panaceas for the problem.

The sub-groups focused on identifying resources such as uniquely African support groups and utilizing clergies/other professionals to mediate between couples experiencing problems with their marriages; developing better levels of tolerance and communication among couples; helping couples understand that marriages work better when it is partnership-oriented and ensuring that parental respect was maintained in the household.

The town hall gathering also suggested creating an intervention group/ elders council to mediate between quarreling couples; providing a regular forum for people, especially men, to socialize amongst themselves; as well as creating mechanisms to encourage and give recognition on occasions such as high school graduations or even promotions in the African communities and organizations.

Another town hall meeting will reconvene within the next three months(February/March) to begin putting these thoughts into action as well as establishing an African resources and referral network for domestic violence.

The movement that took root in Sacramento on November 12 could not have come at a more appropriate time. It occurred the same week the WHO report on domestic violence was released.

Hopefully, both endeavors will stimulate a synergy that will put the issue on the front burner, and eventually lead to a reduction in the problem, especially among Africans.

As the WHO study states: “ Violence against women has a far deeper impact than the immediate harm caused. It has devastating consequences for the women who experience it, and a traumatic effect on those who witness it, particularly children.

“It shames states that fail to prevent it and societies that tolerate it. Violence against women is a violation of basic human rights that must be eliminated through political will, and by legal and civil action in all sectors of society.”

Because he sent me a commissioned art work of his two dogs in 2016 I am looking for an artiste to work on a Christmas Postcard for our Constitutional Law Professor President Barack Obama, with the Mike Tyson/Evander Holyfield remembered as the Bite/fight the same year I lost my brother in a mysterious hit-and-run accident on Highway 12. The anti-African should know that he has picked the wrong fight. I may argue, but I don’t bite, and I don’t fight, and I am not violent and never embraced any man white or black like Mike Tyson and Evander Holyfield. As a matter of fact I have never been in a fight all my life. Neither are we aware of any Van escapades. He has nothing to prove but the fact he may be hellbound.

A short training clip of Mike Tyson recently went viral, and according to the man who was catching the former champ’s punches, the iconic heavyweight still has some fight left in him at age 53.

“I didn’t know what to expect,” trainer Rafael Cordeiro told ESPN’s Ariel Helwani on Monday. “He hasn’t hit mitts for almost 10 years. So I didn’t expect to see what I saw. I saw a guy with the same speed, same power as guys 21, 22 years old.”

Cordeiro, best known for his work in mixed martial arts, added that anyone who gets in the ring with this 2020 version of Tyson ‘’has to be a good guy to spar with Mike.”

Cordeiro said he got the opportunity to work with Tyson, the undisputed heavyweight champion in the late 1980s who also held heavyweight titles in 1996, through associates who contacted him about working with “Iron Mike.”

Reliable sources say a clause in the contract between Cordeiro and Tyson clearly states that he has never sparred with a Hispanic Rafael and his sparring partner Caucasian Greg Boyd in Benicia; friends of the ex who is an alchemist. Sources say those two have been fighting since 1990 and should not be confused with black Tyson or Rafael Cordeiro or Ben. Sources say there was a Tyson mock up mix in a Fortune 500 lab in Solano from the ring mat at their Benicia after several fights. Ben has never been there. But Howhard Cossell. Serious Bio-Terrorism matter now.

Emir of Zazzau, Shehu Idris, dies at 84, and some more morbid clues about deep pockets and a money laundering trail that leads to London and Holland

The Emir of Zazzau, Alhaji Shehu Idris, has died at the age of 84.

He was the 18th Emir of Zazzau and the Chairman of the Zazzau Emirate Council.

The PUNCH gathered that Idris died at the 44 Military Hospital Kaduna on Sunday.

Governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai, confirmed the Emir’s death.

While describing Idris’ death as “very sad”, the governor tweeted, “It is with great sadness that I confirm the passing of the father of our state, His Highness Emir of Zazzau, Alh (Dr.) Shehu Idris CFR.

Another great monarch gone. May God grant his family and the people of Zazzau peace. Interestingly his first year on the throne was about the same time I started high school. Five years later in college my paths crossed with another Idris, and that seems to be where all the puzzles started. This Idris whose last name was Aduwa was a dual citizen of Nigeria and Holland. Sources say he was paid to lie about our time in College, money which he used to buy property in London. He is now on the run. He was last known to be in south Africa. Now you wonder how Namibia became Nambia from the mouth of President Donald Trump in his first meeting with African Diplomats.

Pope Francis — A Marriage Without Argument Is Boring

And thanks to my mysterious friend from the Vatican (Laura Acevedo) who helped to reinforce this Dublin, Ireland sermon from the Pope, which is an inspiration. This compassionate Cuban born Lady who lives in Luxembourg, and who served in a monastery for 18 years, sought me out at the Schipol Airport in 2018 and introduced her Cuban Mother at the Tom Bradley LAX Airport.

Pope Francis Addresses Christian Marriage In Dublin, Ireland — A Timely Focus

Here are key excerpts from his discourse in Dublin, Ireland “ A marriage without argument is boring. Argue as much as you want but you have to make sure you make peace at the end of the day otherwise the cold war gets worse the next day. Marriage is a conscious life-long decision to cherish, assist and protect one another. Today, we live in a culture of the provisional or the temporary. It’s even hard to keep track of the world because it changes all around us. If you do not nurture that love it is not going to last. Your’s should be a commitment to grow that love. Love is definitive. It means you and me, not anyone else. Like you are my half of the orange and you are the other half. It is easy to be attacked by the culture of the ephemeral. How can we experience in the culture of the ephemeral what is truly lasting love. Marriage is unique. It involves mutual responsibility for the transmission of God’s gift of life. Marriage shares in the mystery of God’s eternal love. You are really placing your bets on each other but I encourage you to run that race of commitment to each other. We know that love is God’s dream for us. Don’t be afraid of that dream. Dream it together and every day. That way you would be able to support each other at those moments when the path becomes difficult and when it is hard to see the road ahead.” He also made a veiled reference to the Seven brothers of the MaCabees in his conversation in Dublin, Ireland. As an addition to this discourse on the state of marriages it is important to recall my spiritual retreat in Nigeria five years ago included spending some time with my Uncle Prelate Sunday Coffie Mbang, former Patriach of the Methodist Church of Nigeria and Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN). Mbang, who is one of the most respected Methodist leaders in the world and who was also once President of the World Methodist Council of Churches. Mbang, who trained at Harvard, had good things to say about the Clintons, and he supported the Clinton candidacy in 2016. The picture shows the Patriarch with Pope Paul VI, born Giovanni (Late Son’s other name is Jovan) Battista Enrico Antonio Maria Montini. The Patriarch is also in support of my decision to move forward with my life and remarry, and I Know God will help me decide on the right wife soon. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ymVbOL5cB10

For the record President Obama is the only American President who has met Pope Francis and his predecessor Pope Benedict XVI, Benedikt XVI; born Joseph Aloisius Ratzinger. Pope Francis visit to Dublin, Ireland in 2018 was a rally for truth, justice and love at a time when the world is utterly confused.

And now for some more forensic revelations about our troubled nation!

At The Pentagon Hotel, Yaba Imagine this conversation between GrandMa and daughter in law; Hypothetical and Real Leads About The Origin of the Delta Omicron Variants!

GrandMa: We are so happy to welcome you to Nigeria. And I thank you for your hospitality while I visited to care for my grandson in 1994

Karen. Thanks Ekefre.

GrandMa: You are welcome and we look forward to showing you our beautiful country

Karen. I am happy to visit the land of my ancestors.

GrandMa. Well you know we are a special family with experts in all fields and I hear that Ime’s Placentia was frozen (some say in a General Electric Refrigerator? Why Karen do you know about it and what was it used for later? They say for a Eugenics smear scheme that involved a blend with hair, specimen from a gay Benicia couple and hair at a Fortune 500 lab and that is why you were fired? They say it is called thermal transfer on a special paper?

Grandma: remember I used to watch Martin. Is it true you named my grandson Xavier because you were initially confused his mother was white because he was born with a jaundice condition which was cured by exposure to light at Kaiser, Vallejo

Karen: I think so. I hinted this to Ben at a white wedding in El Cerrito hills in 1994.

GrandMa: Did you think the white woman was Kelly Preston or Kidada Jones? They say these where friends my son met in LA while working as a Newswatch Correspondent registered with the State Department.

Karen: Silence …

GrandMa: What Really Happened in May 2016. Did you hurt yourself from overexertion from an object? Did you bleed from the bedroom to the bathroom or bathroom to the bedroom and they say the Fire Brigade was called. Was there blood on the Mat by your side of the bed and what happened to the Mat?

Karen: Silence ….

GrandMa: My son in April 2016 donated blood to monitor his High Blood Pressure. There were two blood draws on that day after they called him to say the first draw was contaminated. They say the blood may have been smuggled to New York and became synthesized as spray from his missing Oral Typhoid Culture and Anti-Malaria tablets. It seems he was back stabbed in New York and that that person has been labeled a drug dealer. https://investor.lilly.com/news-releases/news-release-details/kathryn-beiser-join-lilly-vice-president-global-communications https://www.vanguardngr.com/2015/02/got-no-mail/ The Post Office has not informed my son about the sresuts of their investigation. Do you know what really happened? Could there have been a mix with your Mat blood and his blood?

Karen: I have no idea but Eli Lilly may know something about it.

GrandMa: Well, I Hope You Get Help for Your Condition. But who poisoned my son and why in 2009 — through food — because he justifiably planned to remarry and somebody saw her picture? https://twitter.com/BenjaminEdokpa1/status/1558075381860601861?s=20&t=kbzK2hL47ywEUTbNA-lwyA

Title: An Elephant in the House Here and There

I was shocked at the issue of domestic violence after being invited by California State University Sacramento (CSUS) in 2005 to cover an African Town Hall meeting on the issue. I was just there as a journalist to report on the issue (in this 2194 word article) I am glad to say that in 24 years of marriage me and my ex wife never got into a physical altercation. Of course there were arguments but I have never abused nobody. That is Debra’s photo in front of our disabled late son. Is she saying Obama? Photo was taken at Ime’s graduation in 2016. In fact I have never been in a physical altercation. And never been this close to a man. And for legal purposes this article was published in an official newsletter at the California State University, Sacramento. See baby Arielle has proven America a nation of liars! Next to Debra are my sister Helen Odita, my niece Doctor Idara Essien-Wood, a professor of African-American Studies at San Diego University and my nephew Doctor Emeka Odita, an Internist at Louisiana State Medical Center. On her right is Debra’s brother Douglas.

Sub: Africans in the Diaspora discuss domestic violence at Sacramento town hall meeting

By Ben Edokpayi ©

The subject of domestic violence or “intimate –partner violence” is one many African couples feel uncomfortable discussing in public.

But on November 12 about 50 men and women of African descent gathered for a town hall meeting at the California State University in Sacramento (CSUS) to tackle the issue head-on, with the CSUS Center for African Peace and Conflict Resolution as a host and co-sponsor.

The meeting was triggered by recent instances of domestic violence in African communities in Sacramento and elsewhere in the United States.

In the Sacramento incident a Ghanaian man reportedly stabbed his wife 22 times to death, after an argument between the estranged couple. In another case, a Nigerian man drove all the way from Atlanta Georgia to stalk his Ondo-born wife living separately in Dallas Texas. He eventually shot her to death in her car.

Also in August this year a Nigerian man used a hammer to murder his Sierra Leonean born wife at their home in a Dallas suburb. This callous murder reportedly occurred in front of the couples’ seven-year-old daughter.

While incidents of domestic violence in African communities in the Diaspora is only now coming into the limelight, the problem has long been an entrenched epidemic in African countries where male chauvinism rules.

“It is like a normal thing for women to be treated by their husbands as punching bags,” said Obong Rita Akpan Nigeria’s former minister of women affairs, earlier this year in an interview.

A New York Times article last August by Sharon LaFraniere brought the issue into sharper focus.

The article stated that although women suffer from violence in every society, nowhere is the abuse more entrenched and accepted than in African countries.

Lafraniere’s periscope on the epidemic scanned several African countries, including South Africa where researchers for the Medical Research Council estimated last year that a male partner kills a girlfriend or spouse every six hours. Citing a 2004 study the NY Times article also revealed that nearly half of the women surveyed in Zambia said a male partner had beaten them.

A Multi-country study on Women’s Health and Domestic Violence released by the World Health Organization in November 2005 showed that Ethiopian women recorded the highest incidents of sexual and domestic violence at 71%.

The Study “ challenges the perception that home is a safe haven for women by showing that women are more at risk of experiencing violence in intimate relationships than anywhere else.”

The Study by WHO surveyed 24,000 women in 10 countries. African countries included in the study were Ethiopia, Tanzania and Namibia. Others were Bangladesh, Brazil, Japan, Peru, Samoa, Serbia and Montenegro and Thailand.

Sadly, the study found out that one of six women in the countries surveyed had suffered abuse, and that violence was more prevalent in poorer countries. According to the study, it is particularly difficult to respond effectively to this violence because many women accept such violence as “normal.”

One of the respondents in the WHO study was quoted as saying: “ The beating was getting more and more severe…In the beginning it was confined to the house. Gradually, he stopped caring. He slapped me in front of others and continued to threaten me… Every time he beat me it was as if he was trying to test my endurance, to see how much I could take.”

This renewed awareness on the epidemic has resulted in domestic violence Laws in some African Countries. But even when these Laws are enacted the law enforcement backing is usually absent or muted.

While domestic violence cases are deeply entrenched in many African societies, cases in the Diaspora are seemingly isolated or sporadic at best.

Still, the gathering in Sacramento felt the issue was serious enough to warrant a town hall meeting. And the calibre of attendees at the meeting underlined the importance of the issue.

“We have an elephant in the room and we need to look at what’s agitating this Elephant,” said Dr. Ernest Uwazie, as he used an African metaphor to welcome conferees to the town hall meeting.

Aside from the host Dr. Uwazie who is Director of the Center for African Peace and Conflict Resolution and Professor of Criminal Justice at CSUS, the line up included key note Speaker and Clinical Psychologist Dr. Kwessi Ngissah, a former Director of Behavioral Medicine with Kaiser Permanente (America’s leading integrated health care organization); Dr. Boatamo Mosupyoe, a Professor of Ethnic Studies and Director of Pan African Studies at CSUS and Documentary filmmaker Chike Nwoffiah, who was one of the evening’s moderators.

There were also nationals from the following African Countries: Nigeria, Ghana, Uganda, Kenya, Liberia, Sierra Leone and Rwanda, as well as several Christian and non-profit organizations. They included co-organizers Newton Ekpo-Marriage and Family Life Consultant and Chief Lanre Hassan- President of Sacramento Nigerian of Association.

The ultimate goal of the group was to create conflict resolution models and solutions as well as identification of resources that can be used by Africans not only in the Diaspora, but also in the Motherland.

Asking men not to see the discussion as an affront on their God-divined roles as heads of the households, South African Moderator Mosupyoe said, “ As an African woman I want you to know that when we address violence it doesn’t mean we don’t love you. You are our fathers, sons, uncles and brothers –you are all of these things to us.”

Echoing a similar sentiment Co-Moderator Nwoffiah chimed in: “ What is the Elephant in the room?” he asked.

“ Let’s discuss this realistically. We probably might not have our hands wrapped around it at the end of this meeting but we want to start the conversation. What is it? How is it manifested? How does it affect us here? We want to frame the dialogue and take it from there.”

Before Mosupyoe and Nwoffiah’s stirring introduction of the topic, Ngissah spoke elaborately on patterns, types and the definition of domestic abuse.

“ Domestic violence knows no cultural, ethnic, race, social class, or literacy boundary. The perpetrator may have no history of domestic abuse or violence, and may be generally known in the community as a very gentle, caring and loving individual or family person,” said Ngissah, who noted that the issue is unfortunately downplayed in many African societies.

The Clinical Psychologist then went on to list types of abuse, namely: Physical Abuse (Domestic Violence), Sexual Abuse and Exploitation, Emotional Abuse, Economic or Financial Abuse and Spiritual Abuse.

Ngissah identified stalking, verbal and non-verbal attacks, yelling, name calling, which he categorized all under Emotional Abuse, as the most dangerous forms of the scourge.

“ We think stalking is harmless, but it is one of the most dangerous and takes all kinds of forms. It is even dangerous for our friends and families,” said Ngissah, a Ghanaian.

The dominant thread that ran through many of the evening’s contributions on the subject was the juxtaposition of the African and American cultures and how the two can be effectively combined by recent transplants from across the Atlantic.

Speakers on this issue were as interesting as they were varied. Three sampling’s follow:

“ The support system you have back home doesn’t exist here. In order to feel comfortable here we need to know our limitations. The rules of the game are not the same as you might have say in Ghana, “ said Ngissah.

A Nigerian Auditor who’s been married to his wife for 30 years had a different perspective. “ We already know the problem. First of all you can’t put old wine into new wine. You can think you can bring your Igbo culture and enforce it here? It just won’t work, “ he said, adding rather humorously,” you go to our African parties and take a look at the face of our women. They look worn out and don’t want to dance. Why? Because they spend most of their time cooking, cleaning and taking care of the home all by themselves. That’s abuse!”

Another Nigerian Dr. Sylvester Okonkwo presented an interesting angle to the clash of cultures and how it frames the issue. “ Let’s not make this sound as if it’s an African problem,” he said.

“ The African culture has its own pluses and minuses. Most of us studied here and gained employment here. We have a proverb that says when you are in a foreign land, ‘ learn all the good things there and leave the bad ones alone,” said Okonkwo.

While many in the room agreed that it was tough to balance the two cultures, all were in agreement that the African culture was intrinsically sound and could be a good insulation against the pressures of today’s microwave world where materialistic pursuits and the hurry for results tend to obfuscate everything else.

Citing communication as key one Liberian man said: “ I think we know the problem. How many of us communicate with our wives as much as we do our workmates. How many times do we sit at the dinner table with our families and say, ‘ How was your day today?” he asked.

Mrs. Marie Washington Maddy, a Liberian married to a Sierra Leonean, blamed the problem on a lack of focus in many African families in the Diaspora.

“ African families have to have a common focus. When it doesn’t exist people tend to grow apart,” she said.

“We are talking but not listening to each other. We all want to accomplish the American Dream and financial independence, but we don’t have the same focus. Families have to work together financially,” said Mrs. Maddy.

While clash of cultures dominated most of the discussion, participants also agreed that many other extraneous elements are involved in the different manifestations of domestic violence. They ranged from the individuals ability to manage anger, the negative influence of television, breakdown in communication and abrasive personality of the culprits involved.

One Nigerian man also opined that it boils down to the level of understanding between a man and his wife. “ My wife understands me. She knows when to be quiet during an argument. I also know when to be quiet. It’s not about culture but about understanding each other,” he said.

At the end of the discussion, the gathering was broken up into five sub-groups to come up with panaceas for the problem.

The sub-groups focused on identifying resources such as uniquely African support groups and utilizing clergies/other professionals to mediate between couples experiencing problems with their marriages; developing better levels of tolerance and communication among couples; helping couples understand that marriages work better when it is partnership-oriented and ensuring that parental respect was maintained in the household.

The town hall gathering also suggested creating an intervention group/ elders council to mediate between quarreling couples; providing a regular forum for people, especially men, to socialize amongst themselves; as well as creating mechanisms to encourage and give recognition on occasions such as high school graduations or even promotions in the African communities and organizations.

Another town hall meeting will reconvene within the next three months(February/March) to begin putting these thoughts into action as well as establishing an African resources and referral network for domestic violence.

The movement that took root in Sacramento on November 12 could not have come at a more appropriate time. It occurred the same week the WHO report on domestic violence was released.

Hopefully, both endeavors will stimulate a synergy that will put the issue on the front burner, and eventually lead to a reduction in the problem, especially among Africans.

As the WHO study states: “ Violence against women has a far deeper impact than the immediate harm caused. It has devastating consequences for the women who experience it, and a traumatic effect on those who witness it, particularly children.

“It shames states that fail to prevent it and societies that tolerate it. Violence against women is a violation of basic human rights that must be eliminated through political will, and by legal and civil action in all sectors of society.”

Because he sent me a commissioned art work of his two dogs in 2016 I am looking for an artiste to work on a Christmas Postcard for our Constituional Law Professor President Barack Obama, with the Mike Tyson/Evander Holyfield remembered as the Bite/fight the same year I lost my brother in a mysterious hit-and-run accident on Highway 12. The anti-African should know that he has picked the wrong fight. I may argue, but I don’t bite, and I don’t fight, and I am not violent and never embraced any man white or black like Mike Tyson and Evander Holyfield. As a matter of fact I have never been in a fight all my life. Neither are we aware of any Van escapades. He has nothing to prove but the fact he may be hellbound.

Mike Tyson has ‘same speed, same power as guys 21, 22 years old,’ trainer says

A short training clip of Mike Tyson recently went viral, and according to the man who was catching the former champ’s punches, the iconic heavyweight still has some fight left in him at age 53.

“I didn’t know what to expect,” trainer Rafael Cordeiro told ESPN’s Ariel Helwani on Monday. “He hasn’t hit mitts for almost 10 years. So I didn’t expect to see what I saw. I saw a guy with the same speed, same power as guys 21, 22 years old.”

Cordeiro, best known for his work in mixed martial arts, added that anyone who gets in the ring with this 2020 version of Tyson ‘’has to be a good guy to spar with Mike.”

Cordeiro said he got the opportunity to work with Tyson, the undisputed heavyweight champion in the late 1980s who also held heavyweight titles in 1996, through associates who contacted him about working with “Iron Mike.”

Reliable sources say a clause in the contract between Cordeiro and Tyson clearly states that he has never sparred with a Hispanic Rafael and his sparring partner Caucasian Greg Boyd in Benicia; friends of the ex who is an alchemist. Sources say those two have been fighting since 1990 and should not be confused with black Tyson or Rafael Cordeiro or Ben. Sources say there was a Tyson mock up mix in a Fortune 500 lab in Solano from the ring mat at their Benicia after several fights. Ben has never been there. But Howhard Cossell. Serious Bio-Terrorism matter now.

No I am not I told him, a real father and just a global citizen ensuring global good. He gave me a pat on the back and wished me a pleasant journey. Interestingly earlier in June when he dropped me off at SMF for my trip to Nigeria I and my son were just reminiscing about Schipol Airport, the best airport in Europe, where we stopped in 1999 on our return from a vacation in Nigeria.

Emir of Zazzau, Shehu Idris, dies at 84, and some more morbid clues about deep pockets and a money laundering trail that leads to London and Holland

The Emir of Zazzau, Alhaji Shehu Idris, has died at the age of 84.

He was the 18th Emir of Zazzau and the Chairman of the Zazzau Emirate Council.

The PUNCH gathered that Idris died at the 44 Military Hospital Kaduna on Sunday.

Governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai, confirmed the Emir’s death.

While describing Idris’ death as “very sad”, the governor tweeted, “It is with great sadness that I confirm the passing of the father of our state, His Highness Emir of Zazzau, Alh (Dr.) Shehu Idris CFR.

Another great monarch gone. May God grant his family and the people of Zazzau peace. Interestingly his first year on the throne was about the same time I started high school. Five years later in college my paths crossed with another Idris, and that seems to be where all the puzzles started. This Idris whose last name was Aduwa was a dual citizen of Nigeria and Holland. Sources say he was paid to lie about our time in College, money which he used to buy property in London. He is now on the run. He was last known to be in south Africa. Now you wonder how Namibia became Nambia from the mouth of President Donald Trump in his first meeting with African Diplomats. The Idris Spin Is Unbelievable and a clue about money laundering abroad by the CIA for a grime scheme that has backfired. Read More

E24 Tichina Arnold Teach 50 Cent Comedy #50CentralBET

Who remembers the hilarious fight between 50 cents and Idris Abdulkareem (Who is not the same as Idris Aduwa and the late Kwaku, both friends from Unical. Kwaku who died in the 90’s is buried in Warri Kingdom Royal Cemetery, should there be a concern about tomb raiders in Nigeria?) when the rapper first visited Nigeria in 2004? Kwaku and Idris were both members of the Pirates Confraternity in College aka Seadogs, and we all know they had some weird initiation rites. In my case the only club I belonged to in College was the Press Club, which published a daily bulletin about campus news. And Austin Olayemi, godfather of my late son, Bright Omokhodion, former Speaker of the Edo State House of Assembly as well as Musa Ikhogode all graduated in the same year and knew I was a model college student. Well my Beverley Hills women also Know I am a Gentleman With A Good Sense Of Humor. Never Been In A Fight. Of Course I Will Argue Like Any man Should, But in 24 Years Of marriage I was never Physical With Debra, And That’s One Thing Both of Us Treasure. And You Know The Only Time I have Been Slapped By A Woman With many Witnesses Was At A Hospital in Delta State in 2018. Because Of A Black Eye From The Hard Slap I Was Going To Press Charges But The Local Police Chief Jimoh Hassan Said let the anger go, after she promised it will never happen. The cause was a long day in the hospital because we were both worried about Jasmine who had malaria. In their get rich quick scheme for entertainment, I think someone became insane. And Halle Berry Did They Flip The Script in Delta State with mascara and make up? For another movie script idea? Would that not be criminal if they took pictures for a movie? I have been advised to move on from this twisted mind by Major General John Edokpayi, the Patriarch of the family.

Pope Francis — A Marriage Without Argument Is Boring

And thanks to my mysterious friend from the Vatican (Laura Acevedo) who helped to reinforce this Dublin, Ireland sermon from the Pope, which is an inspiration. This compassionate Cuban born Lady who lives in Luxembourg, and who served in a monastery for 18 years, sought me out at the Schipol Airport in 2018 and introduced her Cuban Mother at the Tom Bradley LAX Airport.

Pope Francis Addresses Christian Marriage In Dublin, Ireland — A Timely Focus

Here are key excerpts from his discourse in Dublin, Ireland “ A marriage without argument is boring. Argue as much as you want but you have to make sure you make peace at the end of the day otherwise the cold war gets worse the next day. Marriage is a conscious life-long decision to cherish, assist and protect one another. Today, we live in a culture of the provisional or the temporary. It’s even hard to keep track of the world because it changes all around us. If you do not nurture that love it is not going to last. Your’s should be a commitment to grow that love. Love is definitive. It means you and me, not anyone else. Like you are my half of the orange and you are the other half. It is easy to be attacked by the culture of the ephemeral. How can we experience in the culture of the ephemeral what is truly lasting love. Marriage is unique. It involves mutual responsibility for the transmission of God’s gift of life. Marriage shares in the mystery of God’s eternal love. You are really placing your bets on each other but I encourage you to run that race of commitment to each other. We know that love is God’s dream for us. Don’t be afraid of that dream. Dream it together and every day. That way you would be able to support each other at those moments when the path becomes difficult and when it is hard to see the road ahead.” He also made a veiled reference to the Seven brothers of the MaCabees in his conversation in Dublin, Ireland. As an addition to this discourse on the state of marriages it is important to recall my spiritual retreat in Nigeria five years ago included spending some time with my Uncle Prelate Sunday Coffie Mbang, former Patriach of the Methodist Church of Nigeria and Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN). Mbang, who is one of the most respected Methodist leaders in the world and who was also once President of the World Methodist Council of Churches. Mbang, who trained at Harvard, had good things to say about the Clintons, and he supported the Clinton candidacy in 2016. The picture shows the Patriarch with Pope Paul VI, born Giovanni (Late Son’s other name is Jovan) Battista Enrico Antonio Maria Montini. The Patriarch is also in support of my decision to move forward with my life and remarry, and I Know God will help me decide on the right wife soon. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ymVbOL5cB10

For the record President Obama is the only American President who has met Pope Francis and his predecessor Pope Benedict XVI, Benedikt XVI; born Joseph Aloisius Ratzinger. Pope Francis visit to Dublin, Ireland in 2018 was a rally for truth, justice and love at a time when the world is utterly confused.

See God Knew Me Even Before I was Born.
