Dangerfield Newby is the actual man on which the movie D’Jango Unchained is loosely based. He was a member of the John Brown raiders. He joined the gang to save his wife, Harriet and children from slavery. —Dangerfield Newby (1815 – October 17, 1859) was the oldest of John Brown's raiders, one of five black raiders, and the first of his men to die at Harpers Ferry, Virginia. Born into slavery in Fauquier County, Virginia, Newby married a woman also enslaved. Newby's father was Henry Newby, a landowner in Fauquier County. His mother was Elsey Newby, who was a slave, owned not by Henry, but by a neighbor, John Fox. Elsey and Henry lived together for many years and had several children, although interracial marriage was illegal in Virginia. Dangerfield was their first child. Dangerfield Newby, his mother and his siblings were later freed by his father when he moved them across the Ohio River into Bridgeport, Ohio. John Fox, who died in 1859, apparently did not attempt to retrieve Elsey, Dangerfield, or any of his siblings. Dangerfield's wife and their seven children remained in bondage. A letter found on his body revealed some of his motivation for joining John Brown and the raid on Harpers Ferry. Dangerfield Newby's wife, Harriet Newby, was the slave of Jesse Jennings, of Arlington or Warrenton, Virginia. Newby had been unable to purchase the freedom of his wife and seven children. Their master raised the price after Newby had saved the $1,500 that had previously been agreed on. Because all of Newby's other efforts had failed he hoped to free them by force. Harriet's poignant letters, found on his body, proved instrumental in advancing the abolitionist cause. Newby was six foot two. On October 17, 1859, the citizens of Harpers Ferry set to put down the raid. Harpers Ferry manufactured guns but the citizens had little ammunition, so during the assault on the raiders they fired anything they could fit into a gun barrel. One man was shooting six inch spikes from his rifle, one of which struck Newby in the throat, killing him instantly. After the raid, the people of Harpers Ferry took his body, stabbed it repeatedly, and amputated his limbs. His body was left in an alley to be eaten by hogs. In 1899 the remains of Newby-plus remains of nine other raiders-were reburied in a common grave near the body of John Brown in North Elba, New York. Dangerfield Newby's wife, Harriet and her children were sold to a Louisiana slave owner after the raid.

"50 Cent is quite frugal. He ended our two-year relationship after I asked him for $10,000," Jamira, the rapper’s ex-girlfriend, recently shared in an emotional statement. 🥲‼️ She continued, "Ladies, think twice before dating someone like 50 Cent. In fact, if your partner follows him on social media, it might even be a red flag. During the two years we were together, he never gave me a single dollar. The only gift I ever received was a wig, which he actually asked me to return the day we broke up. It wasn’t even worth $100." Jamira explained that she had never asked him for money during the entire course of their relationship. But the one time she did—requesting $10,000—his response surprised her: "'Jamira, you're a strong, independent woman. You don’t need a man to take care of your bills. Here’s $50,'" she recalled. Feeling disappointed and hurt, Jamira ended the relationship. His final words, she claimed, were: "'I’ve been waiting to hear that for a long time. Please leave the wig on the table before you go.'" She concluded by saying, "I truly regret falling for him. Loving 50 Cent was the biggest mistake of my life. He’s just extremely tight with money." Fans have reacted with mixed opinions, while others point out 50 Cent once famously rapped, “I don’t care what you heard about me, but a woman’s not getting a dollar outta me.” It seems he meant every word. 😆

* THE WIFE WHO PRAYS YET DESTROYS HER MARRIAGE... WIFE/Husband... God, I want to fast and pray this week GOD: What will you be fasting and praying for? WIFE: My marriage GOD: Have you told your husband about it? WIFE: I don't think I need to GOD: Where is your Bible? WIFE: It's in my handbag GOD: When was the last time you read the Bible? WIFE: It's been a long while GOD: Then how do you expect to pray in the right way if you don't take time to know My will by reading My Word? Pray using My Word WIFE: How do I pray using Your Word? GOD: By returning My Word to Me. Speak My inspired Word back to Me. Like Jesus, say "It is written". My Word will not return to Me void but will accomplish the purpose intended. Hold Me to account on My Word. Go get your Bible my child WIFE: Yes Lord WIFE: I am back GOD: Read 1 Corinthians 7: 5 WIFE: It says, "Do not deprive each other except perhaps by mutual consent and for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control." GOD: That passage of Scripture is addressing the husband and wife. I don't think you fully understand what I mean when I say in marriage, two become one. You and your husband have become one. You should be informing your husband WIFE: Why? What for? It's not like he will want to fast with me GOD: Have you tried asking him? WIFE: Aah. I know him. He doesn't like this spiritual stuff. I wish he was as spiritual as me GOD: My child, I know him better than you do. Your attitude of seeing yourself as spiritually superior is what is discouraging joint prayer between you and him. You already formed an opinion about him and you push that opinion in his face. Why do you feel the need to show how spiritual you are? WIFE: I take hours to pray for my marriage. I wish he knew how much I am on my knees for this marriage to work GOD: My child, you're doing the right thing but your attitude and motives don't please Me. You pray a miss because your heart is not in the right place. I have seen you spending hours at keshas in Church buildings; only to come back home and shout at your children and husband as you pass judgement on them. I have watched you kneel in your bedroom in prayer, only for you to show contempt and disrespect to your husband some hours later. I have seen you fasting, only for you to speak negative belittling your husband. What exactly do you want? Your prayers and fasting seem religious, like you do them to appease yourself or to show off. In the Church congregation, you are celebrated because you never miss concerts, fellowships, revival meetings, Church services and keshas; but at home you are an ungrateful wife, an angry wife, a cold wife, a harsh mother, a discouraging mother, a thorn in the flesh. Kindly read 1st Corinthians 13: 1 - 3 WIFE: If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing. GOD: My child, if your husband and children don't feel loved by you then all your praying and fasting is for nothing. It is not what you do, but who you are. You can fast all this week for your marriage yet destroy your own marriage by how you treat your husband WIFE: So what do I do God? What do I do? GOD: Always remember that marriages remain strong, not because of prayer but because of love; prayer is but a force accompanying love. As you speak to Me in prayer, speak love to your husband. Praying for your marriage will not automatically make your marriage fruitful; you must work on your marriage. Stop using prayer and fasting to hide your laziness or to cover up the things you need to change as a wife. I really desire to see love in your home. I desire to see you and your husband laughing, treating each other well. Whatever you do to your husband, you do to Me. I desire to see you two together in love in My presence WIFE: God, forgive me for going about it the wrong way. Please give me some minutes. I will be back (Twenty seven minutes later) WIFE: God, I am back now. With my king, my husband. We approach Your throne, our King of kings HUSBAND: God, I want to thank You for my wife. She came to me and blessed me in a way that a wife should. Today, I want to thank You for our marriage GOD: Go on, I am listening. I am pleased by you two Since that day, the husband and wife pray together; but above all, they love each other *#SHARE to Educate others. Cheers! 🥂*

*From Mansion to Miracle: How Dr. Samuel Maduka Onyishi Is Turning His Castle Into a Teaching Hospital for the People* Health and Education transform a society, a people from obscurity and backwardness to the most saught after much more than any other thing. No one understood this and is putting it into practice more Dr Samuel Maduka Onyishi, the Chancellor of Maduka University and the founder of Peace Mass Transit Group. He passed through the streets universities of entrepreneurship to build Peace Mass Transit Group into a stable cash cow. He tried setting others up in businesses, but found out that educating the people should be the first priority. He also insisted on doing it through sustainable legacy institutions. After setting up an entrepreneurial University and university college, he has now turned his eyes on health. As we know, health is wealth. In the area known as Nsukka Economic and Cultural Zone, which cuts across two Senatorial Districts, there is no tertiary health facility, despite hosting University of Nigeria Nsukka. With his strategic entrepreneurial eyes and empathic heart he moves to transform his country home into a Teaching Hospital. Is this possible? Dr Maduka Onyishi is a man who does impossible things quietly. Let us go to his Amukwa village of Nsukka town, Enugu State where he has a grand estate — what many would call a castle. This majestic building, which was once Dr. Onyishi’s private residence is a reflection of years of hard work and success. Most would have kept it that way, enjoying its beauty and comfort in peace. But Dr. Onyishi has chosen to do something extraordinary: he is transforming his private home and its surrounding buildings into an international multi-specialty hospital designed to serve both the public and the medical students of Maduka University and other medical training institutions. To make this vision a reality, he acquired 14 additional properties around the vicinity, all in an effort to make sure that this full-scale health care facility was established in his village. Thinking - home, you may call this. This isn’t just renovation, but some new buildings are already rearing their heads. It’s transformation on a massive scale. And it’s not just about healthcare. Dr. Onyishi intentionally chose the location of the proposed university Teaching Hospital to be in Nsukka urban town, with a clear purpose — to elevate the urban status of Nsukka and drive development in his beloved community. Yes, his personal castle and other surrounding properties are being converted into a teaching hospital. Renovations are already ongoing and soon, this luxurious property will become a state-of-the-art medical facility, not for the rich, not for the elite, but for the people. When completed, this teaching hospital is set to become one of the best in the country — a beacon of world-class medical education and accessible healthcare. At a time when many use wealth to build walls, Dr. Onyishi is using his to build bridges. Instead of adding more zeros to his bank account, he is investing in something far more valuable: human lives. He has openly declared his intention to return most of his wealth to charity, and this hospital is just one part of that promise. He has given it all. A billionaire without a home in his village. This is more than entrepreneurial philanthropy. This is leadership. This is legacy. This is love in action. Dr. Samuel Maduka Onyishi is not just building structures. He is building a future where healthcare is accessible, where education is empowering, and where transport is safe and reliable. He is proving that true success is not measured by what you accumulate but by what you give away. In a country hungry for hope, this is the kind of story we need. It is a story of a man who remembers where he came from. A man who understands that wealth is not just for comfort but for impact.

JUST THINKING : In Gen 3, after Adam’s sin, God’s first question is “where are you?” . In Gen 4 after Cain’s sin, God’s first question is, “where is your brother?” The core of our relationship with God is found in these two questions . First is FIND YOURSELF; Second is FIND YOUR BROTHER !!! Hope this made little sense?

Stop Touring Outside Nigeria, Use Remaining Two Years to Visit Nigerian States And See What Your Citizens Are Going Through—Peter Obi Tells Tinubu

✈️⏳ Did you know that two American pilots flew a plane nonstop for almost 65 days? 😲🛩️ In 1958, Robert Timm and John Cook set an incredible record by flying a modified Cessna 172 for 64 days, 22 hours, and 19 minutes without landing! 🌟 Starting from Las Vegas, Nevada 🌵, these brave pilots faced an extreme challenge of endurance and creativity. 💪 To stay in the air so long, they used an amazing refueling system 🚁: a tanker truck on the ground supplied fuel through a hose while they flew at very low altitude ⛽. They also received food 🍲, water 💧, and supplies by lowering a rope from the ground. 🍎🥤 Throughout the flight, they took turns flying and resting 😴, dealing with mechanical problems 🔧, cramped conditions 🛠️, and even an improvised bathroom 🚽 onboard. The fatigue was intense, but their determination never wavered. ✊ This record-breaking flight was not just a stunt to promote a casino 🎰 but a true test of skill and stamina before the age of modern technology and autopilot systems. 🤖 Even today, this amazing feat remains one of the longest nonstop flights in aviation history. 🏅 📚 Source: Guinness World Records #AviationHistory #LongestFlight #Cessna172 #PilotLife #RecordBreaking ✈️⏳🌍

AI translation from Hausa to English *BE CAREFUL WHEN TAKING PHOTOS OF NEWBORNS!!* This morning, I was called to the home of one Alhaji to examine a baby girl who was born three weeks ago. When I arrived at the house: They complained to me that the baby girl seems to have trouble seeing. Since the day of her naming ceremony up to the time I'm sharing this message, her parents have noticed that she doesn't respond to light or to hand movements near her eyes or face. Because of this, I suggested they consult a pediatrician at Nassarawa Hospital. I called a pediatrician and explained the situation, but he said this case should rather be seen by an eye specialist. The surprising part that made me share this with you is what the eye specialist said when I called him. He asked, "Did they have a naming ceremony at home?" I said, "Yes, they did, and it was well attended." Then he said that it's now being observed that many babies who had home naming ceremonies, where the husband’s and wife’s relatives took pictures of the newborns with their phones, end up with visual problems. The flash from phone cameras, especially during the early days or first one or two months of life, can damage the retina—the part of the eye that sends visual information to the brain. This happens because relatives often insist that the baby open their eyes for a photo, and at that moment, the flash from the phone’s camera can harm the baby's retina. Taking photos of a baby during the naming ceremony can potentially cause permanent blindness. Please, let’s be careful. And let’s educate parents and relatives about the dangers of insisting that a newborn open their eyes for photos. Please share this message so others can benefit. Abubakar I.

Pratik Joshi had been living in London for six years. A software professional, he’d long dreamed of building a life abroad for his wife and three young children, who stayed back in India. After years of waiting for due clearances the dream was finally coming true. Just two days ago, his wife, Dr. Komi Vyas, a renowned doctor in Udaipur, resigned from her job. The bags were packed, goodbyes said, the future within reach. This morning, the family of five, filled with hope and excitement, boarded Air India flight 171 to London. They clicked a selfie. Sent it to relatives. A one-way journey to a new life. But they never made it. The plane crashed. No one survived. In a matter of moments, a lifetime of dreams turned to ash. A brutal reminder, life is terrifyingly fragile. Everything you build, everything you hope for, everything you love, it all hangs by a thread. So while you can, live, love, and don’t wait for happiness to start tomorrow.
