*NIGERIA POLICE FORCE WARNS NIGERIANS* *Members of the public are strongly advised to take note of the following:* 1. For your own good, whenever law enforcement agents ( whether in uniform or not) stop a vehicle you boarded, stay calm, avoid hissing and grumbling. Whether you are a man or a woman, respect them. 2. Please take the receipts of your electronic equipment, laptop or other bulk gadgets (original or photocopy), anywhere you go if you must carry them. 3. If you don't have means of identification from your school or workplace, get at least a national ID card or driver's licence. It is crucial. 4. Delete all your bank alerts, and transfer sensitive information into a flash drive or memory card. Keep your financial transactions away from your phone. 5. Carrying more than Ten ATM card may bring serious problem for you in our present-day Nigeria : be warned !!! 6. If you must move at night no matter how close to your house, take your ID card and let someone go with you. 7. Dress responsibly - it will save you. Looking rugged and wild may earn you serious trouble. 8. If you are given a vehicle to go for an errand, make sure all documents are complete and up- to- date. Also, your driver's licence must be compliant before you hit the road. 9. When your car is being searched, don't just look away in anger ; they are doing their job. Just pay close attention to what's going on, to avoid "had I known". 10. If you are not sure of what someone is carrying in a bag, pack, or sack, please ask politely before accepting to give the person a ride. You may be arrested for what you know nothing about. 11. After any stranger you decide to give a help comes down, move forward a little, park and search your vehicle very well before you continue so as to avoid harbouring any incriminating objects left behind. 12. It is mandatorily necessary you dont keep this message to yourself alone... Please let others aware of these tips.

Agada.... This was the extent my ancestors got to building their own bed called "Elu akwa" when complete with the grass filled mattress. I don't know the history of its creation so I can't venture there. This piece of artistry is already extinct even in the most rural of Igboland. This wooden structure itself is called Agada in my Mbaise dialect, and few other Igbo speaking areas I know. When the Igbo say that "Iko anaghị eku nwa, ihe o ketere bu aziiza elu ákwà", meaning that "a concubinus doesn't make paternity claims rather his only gain from the relationship is the heat of sexual intercourse." This is the"elu ákwà we talk about. But seeing this photograph which I got from the walls of my brother Kelechi Sam Nwagbaraocha brought up something else. We have a saying that "Agada gbachiri ụzọ" this basically means the Agada that blocked the door. Those days, the doors of the thatched roofed houses our ancestors built were tiny, and it was always a rigourous spectacle either taking the bed inside the room or bringing it out. And this process was always a real battle as it often gets stuck on the door blocking entrance and exit. It is from this obstruction that the phrase "Agada gbachiri ụzọ" came from. I know over the years some have used that term in religious contexts to refer to higher beings or even God as "the one who blocks the way". Some have also used it to refer to someone who tries to obstruct the success of others. Or someone who actively tries to undermine or sabotage the success of others, often after they have achieved something themselves. However, I have always wanted to know the context in which Chief Ozumba Mbadiwe took the title of Agada Gbachiri Ụzọ. Was it about his role in the NCNC or NPN? First, Mbadiwe didn't have the key to the River Niger like The Great Zik, and he also didn't have the power to trick the Mamiwata into a bottle and locking her up, after which he crushed her to make the popular powder 'Saturday Night'. If you don't know about these stories then I am your real elder. So who knows why Ozumba Mbadiwe was "Agada Gbachiri Ụzọ"?

AN UNFORGETTABLE MOMENT This one touched me differently. Humanity, not religion makes the world a better place. An unforgettable moment in 2023… A Mexico City police officer, Arizbeth Ambrosio was promoted for breastfeeding a hungry baby during relief efforts in Acapulco following Hurricane Otis. The baby, separated from his mother, hadn't eaten in 48 hours. Ambrosio, a mother of two who was deployed to Acapulco with other officers and upon hearing the baby's cries, responded with immediate care. Her act of kindness captured in photos went viral, leading to her promotion for exemplifying humanity in the line of duty.
