Dear Nigerians, ‼️ Please do not joke with this warning. Read & share widely. This is not about politics. Tinubu's relentless foreign aid threatens to plunge Nigeria into its darkest era yet, a pit from which recovery may be impossible. GMOs will fuck us all!! Around June 2024, the Federal Government of Nigeria quietly launched the TELA Maize Variety, a genetically modified organism (GMO) seed allegedly designed to boost maize production in the country, with little to no publicity. The TELA Maize was developed at the Institute of Agricultural Research (IAR) at Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, in collaboration with the African Agriculture Technology Foundation (AATF), which is funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. GMOs, or Genetically Modified Organisms, are plants, animals, or microorganisms whose genetic material has been altered using genetic engineering techniques. Scientists isolate specific genes from one organism and insert them into another to transfer desired traits. For example, scientists can insert genes from a bacterium that naturally produces insect-killing proteins into a crop plant. This modification helps the plant resist pests without requiring chemical insecticides. How will it affect Nigeria? GMOs are like seeds with superpowers; they can harm other living things, such as: - Bees, birds, and butterflies that interact with the plants - Animals like cows, horses, and goats that eat the plants - Nearby plants that grow alongside GMO crops The use of herbicide-resistant GMOs can trigger dangerous ecological changes in Nigeria. One major risk is the rise of herbicide-resistant weeds, which thrive despite chemical control. This disrupts balance in our ecosystem and build a chain reaction and that's just the beginning If bees are harmed, they can't help natural plants grow by spreading pollen. That means animals depending on those plants for food or shelter start to suffer. With their habitats shrinking, they migrate or die off. We could see huge wildlife extinction within a few decades. Health implications: Introducing genes from one food into another can trigger new allergens or unknown effects in the human body. The long-term health impact of GMO foods is still unclear. It’s like being used for experiments without your consent. Just like a fucking Lab rat GMOs have been linked to cancers, allergies, and other health issues partly due to their reliance on toxic pesticides. By harming biodiversity and reducing nutritional diversity, they pose serious risks to both human health and the environment. There has been growing speculation around GMOs in Africa, especially with figures like Bill Gates involved. Many see it as more than just control over Nigeria’s food system; it raises fears of long-term harm to public health and population through toxic, life-altering food. Let’s talk about the economic implications: What is a patent? A patent is the sole right to exclude others from making, using, or selling an invention. In this context, it means Nigeria can only buy seeds from Bill Gates. From our laws too “Patents and Designs Act Cap 344,” GMO seeds are often patented, meaning a few foreign companies control the seed supply, forcing farmers to buy new seeds every season at higher costs. The result? Farmer dependency, and loss of control over Nigeria’s agriculture & food security to a foreigner, Be worried. Just like our oil was patented, so Nigeria must rely on a few foreign companies to refine it, and we’re seeing the same with our farmlands. GMO patents threaten our food security, leaving food production in the hands of outsiders. Same trap, different sector. GMO seeds are made to resist pests and herbicides. But once planted, they lead to super-strong weeds that won’t die even after spraying herbicides. These “superweeds” are a tough, lasting problem for farmers and the environment. They become herbicide-resistant weeds, plants that survive even after weedkiller sprays. When weeds face the same herbicide over and over, they adapt and build resistance, making them harder to control; they keep spreading, threatening crops and ecosystems. When herbicide-resistant weeds take over farmland, they kill any non-GMO crops planted. This forces Nigerian farmers or the Nigerian state to rely only on patented GMO seeds controlled by foreign companies like those linked to Bill Gates or risk losing their harvest and going hungry. Control over our food supply gives these companies huge power, potentially swaying government decisions just to keep access to GMO seeds. “He who controls a nation’s food chain controls the nation.” This could put Nigeria completely in their pocket. The biggest issue? Market transparency. GMO seed monopolies often hide or don’t label their products, so farmers can’t make informed choices. The Nigerian government already gave them the go-ahead to enter our market. This means many will end up unknowingly buying and planting GMOs

My name is Genoveva Umeh. I was born on May 8, 1995, in Enugu and though I spent some of my early years in London, my roots are firmly in Enugu State. I’m proudly Igbo. I studied drama in London, followed my passion, decided to return to Nigeria and found my place in Nollywood. At 30, I’ve been blessed with an AMVCA win, a nomination for A Tune Away, and roles in powerful movies on major platforms. I’m not married and I don’t have children yet, but my family means everything to me. Their love gives me strength. Acting is how I speak to the world and I’m deeply grateful to everyone who believes in me. Your support means a lot. — Genoveva Umeh

BEWARE OF PEDOPHILES THIS HOLIDAY SEASON! A call to parental guard on their children "This is lecture note to be delivered at every home Father should call his children together and deliver this lecture Mother should call her female children and drive down the point. Pedophile is everywhere. Parents, long holidays are around the corner, *wake up, *What is Pedophilia?* Pedophilia is a psychiatric disorder in which an adult or older adolescent experiences a primary or exclusive sexual attraction towards children/a child. A paedophile may either a man or a woman. _*Who is a child?*_ A child is anyone below the age of 18. Also note that children are gifts from God, and He expect us as earthly guardians to take proper care of each and every one of them. One of our major duties is to keep them away from these patients called paedophiles. There are different ways children can be abused. Below are some: *CHILD MOLESTATION!* Child Molestation is also known as child sexual abuse. It is a secret crime involving a range of indecent sexual activities between an adult and a child. *TYPES OF MOLESTATION:* -Defilement -Rape -Fingering -Making a child watch pornography -Exposing the genital to kids -Indecent touching -Fondling etc WHO COULD ABUSE YOUR CHILD?* *ANYBODY* Studies show that over 95% of sexually abused children are abused by persons known or close to the child or the child's family. *ABUSERS ARE MOSTLY NOT STRANGERS.* They are right there in your house, co-tenants, family members, lesson teachers, neighbours. Their friends in school, hostel, classmates,class/school teachers, cousins, uncles, nephew, niece, fathers, step fathers, grand fathers, imams, choir masters, pastors, confidants, security guard, maids, family /school drivers, After school teachers , teachers, mummy's friend, daddy's friend, caregivers, strangers........ the list can go on. Please, do not ask if any of the above is possible because, there is no case of any of the above that has not happened. *CAUSES OF CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE* Parental negligence, carelessness, non- challant attitude. It is as bad as No one can be trusted. We have a child presently carrying a baby that belongs to her father. *OTHER CAUSES:* Absentee parents. Parents who do not observe. When the kids are not informed..... What you watch with your kids. Indecent dressing by our children. *WHERE CAN YOUR CHILD BE SEXUALLY ABUSED?* ✓On your bed ✓Right under your nose, under your roof ✓In the school environment- class, toilet etc ✓Hostel ✓Parties ✓In their room (siblings) ✓Deserted/Abandoned places ✓ When you are distracted etc. Perpetrators look for opportunities. 5mins is enough to cause a life long damage. *HOW DO PAEDOPHILES GET THE VICTIMS?* 1.Grooming 2.Baits a. Emotional bait b. Gift bait c. Financial bait d. Familiarity & Respect bait. 3. Child grooming Befriending and establishing an emotional connection with a child, and sometimes the family, to lower the child's inhibitions with the objective of sexual abuse. -Wikipedia- Gaining the trust of a minor with the intention of having sex relationship with them. *HOW TO IDENTIFY A POSSIBLE ABUSER:* A. Always trying to be around your child or vice versa B. Child feels uncomfortable when he/she sights the abuser or when the abuser is around. C. Easily and conveniently accept to care for your child while you are away. D. Can be hard on the child especially if the child is rejecting his moves. If any of the above is observed, please, shine your eyes. Or sometimes, your child might feel uncomfortable/rejecting to go to the person when you send him or her Or even go for holiday. Sexual abuse happens among sibblings, set rules, separate their rooms, separate their beds. We had a case of twins having sex with each other. When they were asked, they said: we see mum and dad do same. Why should we be that careless? Because of the carelessness of both parents, their innocent minds were polluted and their lives were destroyed. *WHAT A PERPETRATOR SAYS TO A CHILD WILLING TO SPEAK OUT:* •I will kill you •You will die •Your mummy will hate you . No one will marry you if they know •Your mummy will beat you •Your mummy will blame you. •Your mummy and your daddy will die. •He could cut the child, lick the blood and say: this is a blood convenant between us, the day you tell is the day you die. Teach your child The *SRR* action. *S - Shout/scream* *R - Run* *R - Report* God be with you!

In a major update ahead of the 5th Test between India and England, the BCCI has confirmed that Ishan Kishan will not be available to replace Rishabh Pant, who was ruled out due to a toe fracture. Kishan, who was a top contender, suffered an unfortunate ankle injury in a scooty accident that required stitches, making him unfit for travel. As a result, selectors have turned to Tamil Nadu wicketkeeper-batter Narayan Jagadeesan. Known for his consistent domestic performances, Jagadeesan has scored over 3,300 runs in first-class cricket with 10 centuries. He is expected to join the Indian squad in England soon, pending visa clearance. Meanwhile, Dhruv Jurel will continue to keep wickets in Pant’s absence. This marks another test of India’s bench strength and adaptability under challenging circumstances. https://www.instagram.com/p/DMfpddYyO5K/ #IndiaVsEngland #RishabhPant #IshanKishan #NarayanJagadeesan #CricketUpdates
