Like OUK Like MUK- By Onyendi Victor Kelechi

They golden descendants of Uzor Kalu dynasty. Gold they always say is very precious. So they great descendants of Uzor Kalu dynasty are gold and they are precious.
The history of Abia politics can never be complete without making reference to the great expolits of Senator Orji Uzor Kalu the Senate Chief Whip (Miri yiri Enyi ala Igbo).
The same trend follows with the indefatigable Mascot Uzor Kalu. The unassailable achievements of the people’s Senator Orji Uzor Kalu meritoriously earned him the accolade Action Governor by the former President Olusegun Obasanjo, remarkably because of the speed construction of the Aba- Owerri Road Aba.
There is no point overstretching issues. The spirit of love, generosity and kind-heartedness runs on the DNA of the tried, tested and trusted political heavyweights.
The indispensability of the Orji’s human capital development can’t be putting into negligence. In politics they are an institution. The Kaluism political ideology reigns supreme in all the political sphere of life.
The two political bulldozers are seasoned Philanthropists whose heart of Gold and hands of milk follows like the great Pacific ocean, they activities of foundations founded by the Political pillars have stopped at nothing in ameliorating the pains and sufferings of the less privileged.
We can not forget the galvanizing force of the both men in making sure that the APC in Abia gains it’s dreamed height and it is on record that such strategies are yielding the positive results which all and sundry can testify.
Of course, Political Marauders and detractors must always play their part of unfruithful show of shame but those that puts their trust in God are like Mountain Zion. The Kalus are men with God’s grace and no human being can defame them. The grace and unction of the Holy Spirit they have will always Disgrace the political Marauders.
What else can I say except, the great Pillars continue doing good. The hand of God is always upon you. I pray that God will replenish you people in a million fold.

100% Natural Ways To Be The Best Mom

You maybe thinking how do I become the best mom, you have seen so many people posting their mother on Facebook as the best mom but you don't really know why.
There are lots of mom but there are the best once ever.
As a mother how many times do you pray for your children? How many times do you call them together to release blessings? How many times do you tell your child this is bad I don't do it again?
So many children have passed away because their mother didn't direct them in the right way.

I visited one of my friends house and every night there is a particular woman who always wake up by 12 midnight to pray for her children,I said every night for the passed 2 weeks I stayed in that compound, that's one of the quality of the best mom.

FOR THOSE NEWLY MOTHERS AND THOSE ABOUT TO BE, THIS IS WHAT YOU MUST DO TO BE THE BEST MOM.

* Tell them the trust about life at the right time.

*Make sure you pray for them and spread blessings on them. (Mother tongue works).

*Always correct them when they did the wrong thing at the right time.

*Never insult their father in front of them.

*Always make sure you give them the best thing they need to stand strong in future.

*Always teach them how to stand against pressure and over come problems with prayer.

*Try your best to do the heavy work when they are still a little children to avoid doing it when they grow up.

By doing these they will present you as the best mom in the whole world.
If you have something to add to these please comment below.

 The stamp duty charge is a directive from CBN effective from February 01, 2020, which states that all deposits of N10,000 and above are subject to a charge of N50. This means if you have an inflow of multiple N10,000, you will get charged N50 for each. If you however have an inflow of, say, N50,000, you are charged only N50.

These funds are not held with the bank and are remitted to the CBN immediately.

       HOW TO STOP IT.

Things You Need To Know Before Investing Your Money In Any Cryptocurrency Website

cryptocurrency (or crypto currency) is a digital asset designed to work as a medium of exchange wherein individual coin ownership records are stored in a digital ledger or computerized database using strong cryptography to secure transaction record entries, to control the creation of additional digital coin records, and to verify the transfer of coin ownership.
It typically does not exist in physical form (like paper money) and is typically not issued by a central authority. Some cryptocurrencies use decentralised control as opposed to centralized digital currency and central banking systems.
When a cryptocurrency is minted or created prior to issuance or held on a centralized exchange, it is generally considered centralized.
When implemented with decentralized control, each cryptocurrency works through distribute ledger technology, typically a blockchain, that serves as a public financial transaction database.

Bitcoin, first released as open-source software in 2009, is the first decentralized cryptocurrency.
Since the release of bitcoin, over 6,000 altcoins (alternative variants of bitcoin, or other cryptocurrencies) have been created.

Now you have to be careful before you join any Cryptocurrency website this days before this year many website have closed without minding those who invested with them.
If you don't know scammers are now creating fake Cryptocurrency website because the currency exchange is higher.
This one just came in some days ago and registration fee is N12,000 and so many people are joining without being sure of,and many are joining because of those that introduce the business to them.

Why is 1 dollar startup website is not available till this moment am typing this?

The situation of this country can make you loose the little amount you have.
Don't invest on something without real confirmation.

Lagos doctors call off sit-at-home strike

Lagos Branch of the Nigerian Medical Association Thursday called off its sit-at-home order over the harassment of health workers by police officers.
In a press statement made signed by the Chairman, Dr Saliu Oseni and the Secretary, Dr Ramon Moronkola, the doctors said the decision to reverse the sit-at-home order was informed by the intervention of the state government and the top hierarchy of the Nigerian police.
“The association has further received assurances from Mr Governor and the top hierarchy of the Police that no health workers will be further harassed in the course of their lawful efforts to sustain services in the middle of the pandemic,” the statement reads.
The Lagos State branch on Tuesday night asked its members to embark on an indefinite ‘sit-at-home’ over harassment and intimidation of medical workers by policemen.
Journalists and other essential workers in the state were also harassed. At least two The Guardian Nigeria journalists were victimised on their way home on Saturday.
The harassment followed an order by the Inspector General of Police Mohammed Adamu implying that the 8pm to 6am curfew ordered by the Nigerian Government does not exclude essential workers as against during the total lockdown in the state.
The order was, however, rescinded by Adamu on Tuesday night following a widespread complaints and criticisms.

FG Explains Where Abouts Of Chinese Medical Team

Minister of Interior, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola disclosed that the 15-member Chinese medical team came into Nigeria on the bill of CCECC and that they are still in the country.
He said; “Indeed, 15 Chinese nationals came into Nigeria on April 8, 2020 and from everything we have heard and said, they are here on the bill of CCECC, a Chinese company working in Nigeria, doing some work for us in several places and in conjunction with some Nigerian companies agree to support us in the effort to respond to the Pandemic. At Idu in Abuja, they participated in retrofitting and equipping the isolation there.
“They equally worked on the Dome project that was handled by the NNPC Consortium in conjunction with Thisday. So, those were the locations in which they came to work.
“They helped in retrofitting the two facilities and installing critical, essential and sensitive medical equipment. They came in 15 of them, on April 8.
“They came on a 30-day Visa issued in Beijing. They are still here. I do not need to tell you why they are still here. They are still here not because they have not completed their job but because there is a restriction on travels in Nigeria occasioned by the protocol of Covid-19”.

WHO sends message to countries on coronavirus vaccines, others

Director-General, World Health Organisation (WHO), Dr Tedros Ghebreyesus, has told countries that the agency will use every tool at its disposal to fight coronavirus.
Ghebreyesus assured that the UN agency will continue driving research and development to develop evidence about vaccines, diagnostics and therapeutics.
He made the pledge at the closing of two-day virtual World Health Assembly in Geneva.
Ghebreyesus’ speech was posted on WHO website.
The head of the world body disclosed that some of the recommendations from the assembly would be shared and be implemented.
“WHO’s focus now is fighting the pandemic with every tool at its disposal. Our focus is on saving lives. At the end of the day, what matters is life. That should be at the centre of everything we do and everything we say.
“I’ve been heartened by the way countries have shared experiences, best practices through our regular Member State briefings and at this Assembly,’’ he said.
Ghebreyesus added that WHO would continue to provide strategic leadership to coordinate the global response and support efforts by countries.
“We will continue providing the world with epidemiological information and analysis; to keep the world informed and give people and communities the information they need to keep themselves and each other safe.”
The DG stated that shipping diagnostics, personal protective equipment and other medical supplies all over the world will continue.
He said the body will continue bringing together leading experts from around the world to develop technical advice, based on the best science.
The DG noted that WHO would continue to work with countries and all relevant partners to ensure equitable access to the tools to prevent, detect and treat COVID-19.
Ghebreyesus disclosed the agency will not stop supporting countries to prepare and respond; continue working with countries to sustain essential health services.
“We will continue to work day and night to support the most vulnerable countries and populations; continue supporting countries to achieve the “triple billion” targets and the Sustainable Development Goals.”
The official said WHO will continue supporting countries to build resilient health systems, based on primary health care, to progress towards our shared goal of universal health coverage,” he said.
He noted that countries and people may speak different languages, but share the same planet, DNA and aspirations for a peaceful and harmonious world.
“From east to west, north to south, everybody wants peace, development and health, nothing else, that’s what human beings want, that’s what humanity wants,” Ghebreyesus said.
The Assembly is the forum through which the WHO is governed by its 194 member states and is the world’s highest health policy setting body and is composed of health ministers from member States.

RED CARPET: Liverpool to lift first Premier League trophy without fans

Liverpool have been promised they will be allowed a Prem trophy lift, but behind closed doors.
Jurgen Klopp’s men need just two wins from their remaining nine games when the Premier League returns next month to lift the crown for the first time since 1990.
The Kop will be denied the right to witness the historic moment in person with all resumption games taking place in empty stadiums.
But League chief executive Richard Masters vowed that the new champions will be handed the trophy in the traditional manner, allowing them a sort of celebration.
Masters said: “If at all possible, yes, there will be a ceremony and they will pass the trophy round.
“We would like to have a trophy presentation to give the players and staff the moment they have worked so hard for.
“So we would try and do it unless it wasn’t possible because of safety concerns. “From a planning perspective, we are focused on finishing the 2019-20 season, but we also have to plan for all eventualities.”
Meanwhile, the Premier League are considering using fake crowd noises inside stadiums to enhance the viewer experience.
The return of the Bundesliga at the weekend was an advert as to how matches will look once football gets back underway in England.
With empty stands, the only sound was the ball being struck and the occasional shouts from players and coaches.

'Football with fans will be back soon,' says UEFA chief

UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin is confident “good old football with fans will come back very soon” despite the chaos caused by the coronavirus pandemic.
Domestic and continental club competitions were halted across Europe in mid-March due to the COVID-19 crisis and Euro 2020 was postponed.
The Bundesliga made a successful return to action behind closed doors at the weekend and many other leagues are preparing to resume in front of empty stands, with Ceferin sure the situation will soon improve.
Asked whether he would bet a million dollars that Euro 2020 would be played in 2021, the chief of European football’s governing body told the Guardian: “Yes, I would. I don’t know why it wouldn’t be.
“I don’t think that this virus will last forever. I think it will (change) sooner than many think.
“I don’t like this apocalyptic view that we have to wait for the second and third waves or even a fifth wave.”
Ceferin said football would follow the recommendations of the authorities but he was optimistic that normal service could be resumed in the near future.
“I’m absolutely sure, personally, that good old football with fans will come back very soon,” he said.
And Ceferin said he did not expect the game to be profoundly changed by the coronavirus.
“Football didn’t change after the Second World War, or First World War, and it will not change because of a virus either,” he said.

Forget The Pain But Never Forget Lessons Gained, Oge Okoye Tells Fans

The actress further charged them to ensure they live above distractions (noise) and still get to the finish line.
Okoye made this known via a post on her official Instagram page on Tuesday, 19th May.

Watford captain, Troy Deeney refuses return to training

Watford captain Troy Deeney will not return to training this week over fears he could pass coronavirus on to his five-month-old son.
Deeney has consistently voiced his concerns over the speed with which the Premier League hopes to return to playing matches despite the United Kingdom having the second-highest death toll in the world.
England’s top-flight clubs are due to return to training in small, socially distanced groups on Tuesday.
Training will then be stepped up to full contact with the aim of resuming the season by the middle of next month.
“We’re due back in this week. I’ve said I’m not going in. It’s nothing to do with financial gain,” Deeney said on the Talk The Talk podcast.
“My son is five months and he’s had breathing difficulties. I don’t want to come home and put him in more danger.”
All players and staff will be regularly tested, but Deeney highlighted the contradiction of contact sport returning at a time when the public are told to continue following social distancing guidelines.
The 31-year-old also added he is willing to take a financial hit if not playing results in a reduction in wages.
“While we are being tested and while we are going to be in a very safe environment, it only takes one person in the group. I don’t want to be bringing that home,” he added.
“I just said the simplest thing. I can’t get a haircut until mid-July, but I can go and get in a box with 19 people and jump for a header.
“I don’t know how that works. No one could answer the questions, not because they didn’t want to, but because they don’t know the information.
“I’ve lost my dad, my gran, my grandad.  I’ve lost more or less everyone that I care about. So that, to me, is more important than a few quid in my back pocket.”
Troy Deeney also raised the concerns of black, Asian and ethnic minority players over studies that they are more at risk from the virus.
Black men and women are nearly twice as likely to die from COVID-19 as white people in England and Wales, according to the Office for National Statistics.

“Within the meeting I asked very simple questions. For black, Asian and mixed ethnicities they are four times more likely to get the illness and we’re twice as likely to have long-lasting illnesses,” Troy Deeney said.
“Is there any additional screening? Heart stuff to see if people have got problems? No. Okay, well I feel like that should be addressed.”
However, Newcastle manager Steve Bruce praised the attention to detail in the Premier League’s protocols and said the vast majority of his players are in favour of a return to training.
“They have done everything they possibly can to make sure everyone is safe,” Bruce told the BBC. “The attention to detail is fantastic. I think everything has been put in place.
“They have been meticulous in their planning. The vast majority of our squad are satisfied.
“Let’s get up and going and see where it takes us. I think all of us want to get it started and finished.”



COVID-19: FG tells Nigerians to “prepare for the worst”

The Minister of Health, Dr. Osagie Ehanire, has told Nigerians to prepare for the worst, even as the Federal Government works to contain the spread of COVID-19.
Ehanire stated this while speaking on Tuesday, during the daily briefing of the Presidential Task Force on COVID-19.
The Minister urged health workers and citizens to do their best to learn more about coronavirus, even as President Muhammadu Buhari extends the easing of restrictions in Lagos, Ogun and FCT.
“Yesterday, the President authorized extending easing of restrictions in Lagos, Ogun and FCT by another two weeks. The lockdown in Kano was also extended by two weeks, to address remaining challenges to containing the increasing number of confirmed COVID-19 cases.
“It is of great importance that we – members of the health sector and citizens, endeavour to use this period to dedicate efforts to strive for the best, but also prepare for the worst.
“As we learn more about coronavirus every day, we must be ready to adjust our strategy, based on knowledge and evidence,” Ehanire said.
