U.S. President Donald Trump on Wednesday declared Jerusalem as Israel's capital, hailing it as "very fresh thinking" and a repudiation of "the same failed strategies of the past" employed by his predecessors. "It is time to officially recognise Jerusalem as the capital of Israel," Trump said from the White House. Trump also said he would direct the State Department to begin the process of moving the U.S. Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. While Trump is fulfilling campaign promises domestically on both decisions, the U.S. risks infuriating the Muslim world, potentially sparking protests that could fray American alliances in the volatile Middle East. Reactions from leaders in both the Mideast and around the world had already ranged from concern to alarm in anticipation of Trump's announcement.

Donald Trump's former top advisor Michael Flynn pleaded guilty Friday to lying to the FBI over his contacts with Russia, in a dramatic escalation of the probe into possible collusion between the president's campaign team and Moscow. The 58-year-old retired three-star Army general is the most senior figure indicted in special prosecutor Robert Mueller's sprawling investigation into Russian interference in last year's election. Flynn's admission that he had secret discussions in December 2016 with Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyak -- with direction from top Trump officials -- set Washington abuzz with speculation over who in the Republican leader's inner circle might next be in Mueller's sights. Citing unnamed sources, The Washington Post reported that one of the "very senior" presidential transition team officials advising Flynn to contact the Russian envoy was Trump's son-in-law and senior aide Jared Kushner. Flynn's guilty plea, on a feder...

Former President Dr. Goodluck Jonathan has dismissed claims by the Borno State governor, Kashim Shettima, that he was poor in his choices and ran a bad government, accusing the governor of being economical with the truth. He challenged Shettima who is also the Chairman of Northern Governors Forum to be honest enough and tell the world all he knew about the abduction of over 200 students of the Government Girls Secondary School, Chibok especially the reason he exposed the girls to risk that insurgents kidnapped them. The former leader said this in a statement by his Media Adviser, Ikechukwu Eze. Shettima, at a book presentation, ‘On a Platter of Gold- How Jonathan won and lost Nigeria”, written by Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi, said though Jonathan was a good man, he made poor choices and ran the country poorly during his time as president. He claimed that the former president was made to believe that he was the one that took the abducted female students. Hitting back at the governor, Jona...

The Catholic Bishop of Sokoto Diocese, Bishop Mathew Hassan Kukah has, has called on Catholics to vote out bad government. He also blamed the woes of the country on the shunning of politics by Catholic Church and its members, who, he said were natural community builders. Kukah made these remarks in Lagos yesterday, while delivering a speech on, “Family Value, Human Right and the Challenges of Modernization In Nigeria”, at the 38th Supreme Council Convention of the Order of the Knights of Saint Mulumba Nigeria. He noted that Catholics’ non  participation in politics led to the killing of Christians in the northern part of Nigeria, even as he blamed them for not visiting Christian victims of the dreaded Islamic sect, Boko Haram. “The role of religion in restructuring is much and yet we have not tapped into it. Right from time, Catholic Church has always been helping the government to build and organise the society. The church has always offered direction for the society. If Catholics...

CIA, Bill Oxley - finally spoke the truth - He killed Bob Marley. A 79-year-old retired officer of the CIA, Bill Oxley, has made a series of stunning confessions since he was admitted to the Mercy Hospital in Maine on Monday and told he has weeks to live. He claims he committed 17 assassinations for the American government between 1974 and 1985, including the music icon Bob Marley. Mr. Oxley, who worked for the CIA for 29 years as an operative with top-level security clearances, claims he was often used as a hitman by the organization, to assassinate individuals who could represent a threat to the goals of the agency.Trained as a sniper and marksman, Mr. Oxley also has significant experience with more unconventional methods of inflicting harm upon others, like poisons, explosives, induced heart attacks and cancer. The 79-year-old operative claims he committed the assassinations between March 1974 and August 1985, at a time when he says the CIA “was a law unto itself.” He says he w...

The new slave trade-human trafficking in Libya is being carried out by many nationalities, including Nigerians and Ghanaians, according to a Cameroonian returnee, who was abducted in the country. Foka Fotsi, who was trafficked twice, told Reuters that those in charge of one of the places where he was held included Ghanaians and Nigerians. Fotsi story corroborated another testimony by a Nigerian in the southern state of Edo, who identified one Charles, a Nigerian as the trafficking kingpin. Foka Fotsi- battered in a camp run by Nigerians and Ghanaians Unable to find work to support his family, Fotsi decided to leave Cameroon last year, but fell into the hands of a Libyan kidnap ring before reaching Europe. “There was torture like I’ve never seen. They hit you with wooden bats, with iron bars,” he said, removing the hood of his sweatshirt and showing the still raw red wounds on his skull. “They hang you from the ceiling by (your) arms and legs and then throw you down to the floor.

For the fifth time, Nigeria was yesterday drawn against Argentina in a group for the 2018 World Cup in Russia. They will also face Iceland and Croatia in Group D. There are some intriguing stories coming out of the Final Draw after its conclusion with Nigeria facing Argentina yet again. There  seems to be no easy group, checking with Groups A – H, each group is equipped with top teams from all across the continents. Argentina  and  Nigeria  meet again in the group stages, as they did in 1994, 2002, 2010 and 2014. The only time Nigeria avoided Argentina in the World Cup was in 1998 in France. In 1994, Nigeria was pitted against Argentina, Bulgaria and Greece. The opening match was against Bulgaria which the Super Eagles won 3-0 with late Rashidi Yekini scoring the country’s first ever World Cup goal. They topped the group despite losing 1-0 to Argentina because they also beat Greece 2-0 to garner six points. In 1998, they were drawn again against Bulgaria,Spain and Paraguay, winni...

By Kay Musonda. Africa is currently experiencing another form of slavery through Pentecostalism. We are now mentally lazy and our ability to reason scientifically has been incapacitated. The African pastor won’t talk about Usain Bolt or Serena Williams. The African Pastor won’t talk about Steve Jobs or the young people in Silicon Valley reshaping our world. They won’t talk about young American scientists spending endless hours in search of a cure to a disease that’s predominantly in the Tropical African Region. The African pastor won’t talk about Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie or Ben Okri. In every corner of the world, there exist young men and women who have defied all odds and become successful through hard work, creativity and dedication…. The African pastor won’t talk about them, neither will he ask his members to emulate the spirit of these individuals. He would rather talk about sister Agatha who got a job she *WAS NOT THE MOST QUALIFIED FOR*because she prayed and fasted in line...

Christmas is around the corner, remember, it is "Happy Christmas" or "Merry Christmas" not "Happy Xmas" or "Happy Holiday" or "Season Greetings" its "Christian" not "Xtain". It is "In Jesus Name" not "IJN" etc. There is no relationship between 'CH' and X. Don't say it doesn't matter because, I am sure you wouldn't like your name to be replaced with 'X'. Christ is not X. X is always negative and it represents; error, unwanted, bad, fail, wrong, danger, and the likes, and moreover, X has no relationship with 'CH' i.e. Christ. Lets not join our enemies in removing CHRIST from His MASS; CHRISTMAS. It is CHRIST+TIAN, i.e. Christian, not X+TIAN. In Jesus Name, not IJN. NB: Do not wish me or anyone; "Season's Greetings" like some network providers wrongly do this period; CHRIST is the Reason for the Season, not Harmattan. ...

Zimbabwe's military leaders have seized control of the African nation, placing longtime leader Robert Mugabe under house arrest and deploying armored vehicles to the streets of the capital, Harare. Mugabe, 93, the world's oldest living leader is under house arrest. Military officials denied carrying out a coup as they took over the state TV and broadcast a message insisting the president and his wife were “secure”, adding that they were targeting a ring of government plotters following a power struggle that saw the vice-president flee the country last week. Jacob Zuma, the South African president, said he had spoken to Mr Mugabe by phone who told him he was “confined to his home but said that he was fine”. "It is not a military takeover of government," an army spokesman said in a televised statement. "We are only targeting criminals around him who are committing crimes that are causing social and economic suffering in the country in order to bring them to jus...

By Shola Akinbo. There are two things to aim at in life: first, to get what you want; and after that, to enjoy it. Only the wisest of mankind achieve the second." ~ Logan Pearsall Smith I recently overheard something that surprised me. I heard that people who win the lottery are happy for about 3 weeks. Yes! Only 3 weeks, and then they go back to their previous state of being, before they won the money. This really did surprise me. I thought that they would have been happy about something so amazing for much longer than 3 weeks. Did you know that 90% of all people who win the lottery are broke within one year, and that most of those wish they had never won it in the first place? I think the reason for this is, that anytime we try to change how we feel by using something outside of ourselves, like winning the lottery, or getting a new car or house, it never works. The resulting feelings of euphoria are often only fleeting. We cannot sustain them for very long. Perhaps, in so...

BY EDNA CHRISTENSENIN. Italian prosecutors are investigating the deaths of 26 Nigerian women - majority teenagers - whose bodies were recovered at sea. The women's bodies were found in the Mediterranean by a Spanish vessel, which lowered a "seemingly endless line of black plastic body bags" onto a port in Salerno, according to Agence France-Presse. Rescuers recover a dead body from the Spanish ship Cantabria in the harbor of Salerno, Italy, on Sunday. That ship had carried out other Mediterranean rescues and had 374 rescued migrants on board. But the Italian government, facing an unending flow of people from Africa and an increase in anti-migrant sentiments from its people, wants to limit the thousands of refugees arriving on its shores each month. The broadcaster adds that "twenty-three of the dead women had been on a rubber boat with 64 other people". Maihajja, who was represented by the South-West Zonal Coordinator of the agency, Suleiman Yakubu, at th...

In life, the worst miscalculation a group could make is to take the patience or tolerance of others for granted. As an individual, I hold the opinion that Nigeria as amalgamated by the British in 1914 could stand tall in, not only Africa, but the comity of nations. With our geographical size, population and human capacity, there is hardly any economy that Nigeria can not sustain. Besides, the country is abundantly blessed with natural resources. Though very heterogeneous by composition, our diversity, if properly harnessed, should have been our major source of strength and, may be, pride. Taking advanced cognizance of human nature, our post amalgamation founding fathers articulated and meticulously bequeathed us a Constitution that had in mind our diversity. Our Constitutions, especially that of 1963, have always had and presented Nigeria as a secular state. Being a secular state means that Nigeria has no state religion. Citizens are fundamentally allowed to practise the re...

Forward: CAN are a confused organization who don't know anything. I call them Noise makers.

Ask CAN where are they when Muslim started conducting white wedding, Ask CAN are they sleeping When Muslim started conducting Night vigils every Friday more than 10yrs ago, opened up camp ground for their crusade. Ask CAN where are they when their sons and daughters in various offices are being used to bring anti Christian policy, was it not ...

If you wish to live long, don't joke with this short sentence, *I am sorry.* Do you know how many people who had gone to early grave because they neglected the therapeutic power of *I am sorry.* Single sorry can stop a war, n prevents millions of men, women including children from dying! Most of the troubles in most homes are heightened because wives are too big to say *I am sorry* to their husbands and you can trust the ego of husbands in saying same to their wives. Quarrel lingers between friends because no party wants to say *I am sorry.* Each says or asks, why should I be the first to say *I am sorry?* He or she would beat his or her chest and utter the ego phrase, *a whole me!* Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the part of the world where saying *I am sorry* is a hard nut to crack while curses are easily unleashed. Welcome to the part of the world where people refer to a person who says *I am sorry* in a midst of a rift as a *weaker sex*: one who is not man enough; on...
