  • THE GREAT BETRAYAL: APA STATE, WATER SCARCITY, AND INSECURITY—THE POLITICS OF DEATH IN BENUE ZONE C IDOMALAND

    For decades, Apa State has been dangled before us like a poisoned carrot, a deceptive mirage designed to keep us pacified while the real business of oppression continues. David Mark whispered its name in our ears for years, feeding us hope while tightening the chains of underdevelopment. Abba Moro came along, mouthing the same tired script, and like clockwork, Apa State was swept under the rug while other regions secured their new states.

    This is not coincidence. This is systematic suppression. The strategy is clear—keep Idomaland, Zone C, Apa/Agatu weak, keep us distracted, and keep us thirsty.

    THE WATER SCANDAL: MAKING OTUKPO KNEEL IN THIRST
    Let’s speak plainly—denying a people water is an act of war.
    Otukpo, the so-called (too neglected, unattractive, bad roads, no security, waterless and dirty) “capital” of Idoma land, has been reduced to a parched wasteland where residents drink from filthy, mud-infested pools like abandoned cattle. The Otobi Water Works, once a beacon of survival, has been left to rot, just like every other promise made to us.

    Tell me—how can a land that birthed senators, ministers, and supposed “billionaires” allow its people to drink from the dirt like beggars? Where is the wealth? Where is the leadership? Where is the outrage?

    The answer is simple: they do not care.
    They sit in their mansions, drinking imported water while we fight over buckets of filth. They attend political meetings in Abuja, making deals with the same people who have ensured Apa/Agatu remains a graveyard of forgotten promises.

    INSECURITY: TURNING OUR HOMES INTO KILLING FIELDS
    As if thirst wasn’t enough, now death prowls our streets.
    Otukpo has become a hunting ground for kidnappers and killers. The people are screaming for help, yet the government remains silent. Protests have erupted, bodies are piling up, yet the only response is indifference.

    Tell me again, who are these leaders serving? Because it is certainly not us.

    The lawmaker representing Otukpo-Ohimini has raised alarms, but words are not enough. Our people are being hunted like animals, yet those in power act as if this is normal.
    Let me be clear—this is not normal. This is engineered chaos.

    CONNECTING THE DOTS: A MASTERPLAN OF OPPRESSION
    Water scarcity and insecurity are not accidents. They are the tools of control.

    Deny them water, and they will beg.
    Deny them safety, and they will cower.
    Deny them Apa State, and they will remain trapped.

    For too long, our politicians have played us for fools. But here’s the truth—the fear is gone.

    THE FINAL WARNING: 2027 WILL NOT BE BUSINESS AS USUAL
    Otukpo will not die in thirst. Apa/Agatu will not kneel in fear.
    Let it be known—the people are awake.
    We will no longer listen to the lies of billionaires who made their wealth off our backs. We will not be fooled by another cycle of empty promises, false hope, and engineered suffering.

    If Apa State is not prioritized, if water is not restored, if security is not enforced—2027 will be a reckoning.
    No more business as usual. No more deception.
    The people will remember. And when the time comes, they will act.

  • "My name is Kanayo O. Kanayo, but my real name is Anayo Modestus Onyekwere. I was born in Mbaise, Imo State, and I grew up in a humble home. Life was not easy, but I was determined to succeed.

    In 1992, I got my big break in Nollywood with the movie Living in Bondage. That movie changed my life. People loved my acting, especially my role as a wealthy man involved in rituals. After that, I became famous for playing ritualist roles in movies like Blood Money and Rituals. Many people even believed I was a ritualist in real life! But I was just a good actor.

    Even with my success in Nollywood, I wanted more. So, I went back to school to study Law. In 2020, I became a lawyer. Now, I balance my career as both an actor and a lawyer.

    My message to young people is simple: Work hard, stay focused, and never stop learning. Say no to exam malpractice! Education is the key to success."

  • Did you know this ?

    A Painful Truth from Nature

    After giving birth, a mother scorpion carries her babies on her back. But what’s heartbreaking is that these young scorpions begin to feed on the flesh of their own mother. Though she has the strength to resist, the mother stays silent, enduring the pain without complaint.
    She becomes weaker day by day, unable to move, while her children grow stronger and eventually walk on their own. By the time they’re ready to survive alone, their mother has died—sacrificed completely so her offspring could live.
    Sadly, many of us have become just like these scorpions. From the moment we are born, our parents sacrifice endlessly—working hard to provide us with education, food, clothing, and shelter. Yet when they grow old, many are left neglected, forgotten, or taken for granted.
    We chase our own goals while forgetting those who made them possible.
    But life comes full circle. One day, we too will be where our parents are now.
    Let’s not wait until it’s too late to honor

  • Latest: The U.S. Congress' opening priority for the crypto industry *is to quickly finish a STABLECOIN oversight bill, and the House of Representatives has released the text of its version on Wednesday,* following in the heels of a recent committee approval of its Senate counterpart.

    Updated: March 27, 2025
    https://www.coindesk.com/policy/2025/03/26/u-s-house-stablecoin-bill-goes-live-in-flurry-of-crypto-activity-on-capitol-hill

    *.......many lawmakers involved in crypto efforts on Capitol Hill all appeared on Wednesday at the DC Blockchain Summit.*

    *.......the Senate and House have both previously passed the resolution, The vote passed, with 70 Senators voting in support and 28 voting against. The previous Senate vote passed 70-27.*

    The House version of stablecoin legislation was released publicly as another bill on crypto clarity was reintroduced and the Senate weighed its crypto Internal Revenue Service's efforts.

    Emmer, Steil and many other lawmakers involved in crypto efforts on Capitol Hill all appeared on Wednesday at the DC Blockchain Summit, a crypto policy event hosted by the Digital Chamber. Most of them shared hopes that the stablecoin effort would be completed by August.

    As the conference wrapped up, the Senate prepared to vote for a second time on a Congressional Review Act resolution overturning the IRS' 2024 regulation governing decentralized finance (DeFi) brokers, *aimed at overturning the Internal Revenue Service's (IRS) reporting requirements for decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms.* This legislation would exempt DeFi protocols from the obligation to report user information in the same manner as traditional brokers.

    Previously, the IRS mandated that DeFi brokers report the total proceeds from digital asset sales and provide customers with Form 1099, which includes collecting user transaction details such as names and addresses. *This move by the Senate seeks to alleviate the reporting burden on DeFi platforms, aligning them differently from conventional brokerage firms. The Senate and House have both previously passed the resolution, which U.S. President Donald Trump is expected to sign, but the Senate needed vote on it again due to a procedural rule requiring the House to vote first on tax-related issues.*

    *The vote passed, with 70 Senators voting in support and 28 voting against. The previous Senate vote passed 70-27.*

    In a statement, DeFi Education Fund Executive Director and Chief Legal Officer Amanda Tuminelli said the group "commends the bipartisan supermajority of Congressional leaders who voted in favor of the “DeFi Broker” CRA resolution, recognizing the severe and far-reaching consequences of the IRS’ misguided rulemaking."

    *The US Senate is preparing to hold a final vote today March 27 to nullify the Internal Revenue Service's (IRS) broker reporting rule for DeFi.*

    *Some of the above news updates were also gathered from Binance and Cryptoslate websites.*
