Find out how the Senior Special Adviser to Governor Wike resigned

Find out how a patriotic Nigerian who assisted his state government and revealed video footage of Nigerian soldiers invading residence of armless Nigerians resigned
Senior Special Adviser to Rivers States Governor, Nyesom Wike, Oraye St. Franklin, has resigned his position.

 Oraye St. Franklin was appointment and sworn in alongside his friends, on November 10, 2015, by the state governor, Nyesom Wike, at the River state government house in Port Harcourt.

 In the wake of  the controversial 2019 governorship election in Rivers state, Oraye Franklin, shared a CCTV video footage of the Nigerian soldiers invading the private residence of Rivers States commissioner of Education, Dr. Tamunosisi Gogo Jaja.

 The video footage captured a horrific moment heavily armed soldiers were chasing and clamping down on people in and out of their house.

 The video sparked serious outrage on all social media spaces, which later drew foreign attention.

 The weighty evidence of the video made the PDP to come out public, and alleged that the Federal government through the minister of transportation, Rotimi Chibuike Amaechi is using the military to hijack Rivers states electoral process, by arresting their high ranking party men.

Some days after releasing the shocking video, Mr. Oraye took to his twitter account and raised an alarm, stating that his life was under threat by the Nigerian army, who felt that Mr Oraye has bitten more than he can chew.

He finally reinstated his commitment to continue to fight for the rule of law, while assuring that his intention was not to fight with @HQNigerian army.
Shockingly, after the election has been won, and the governor sworn in, Mr. Oraye tendered his resignation letter, thanking the governor for giving him the opportunity to serve under him, in ensuring that their state never became a conquered territory.

His letter read thus: “The last four years were a period of great trials for all Rivers people as, indeed, it was of cherished accomplishments for the greatest number of our people on the strength of your sterling leadership. For me, it was a remarkable opportunity to stand in defense of my belief in democracy. 

  “I feel privileged to have been able to contribute modestly, in support of your patriotic stance for our people, at ensuring our dear Rivers State never became a conquered territory. "Your re-election was enunciated on the strength of our collective success and made effective ultimately by God’s grace. 

“Having been part of our success story, I wish to now step down from my position as Senior Special Assistant to the Rivers State Governor on Social Media. 

 People were of high expectation that haven shown such patriotism, both to his state, and to the seating governor, he'll be graced with a juicy official government position as appreciation. His reason for backing out is what we are yet to ascertain.

[video] China releases a cartoon to mock US over it's accusations

China releases a bizarre Lego-like cartoon, mocking US COVID-19 response after the communist country has been criticized by the US president Donald Trump, for allegedly poor handling of the health crisis.  While China has reported no fatalities from the virus in the country over the past week, the white House has accused China of concealing vital data about the pandemic during it's initial stage, and therefore ordered an investigation into reports that COVID-19 had been caused by an accident at Wuhan institute of virology.  In a short video clip posted by China's official news agency Xinhua, the Chinese slammed the accusation against them, claiming that the US was inconsistent at various stages of the pandemic.

Reasons why female youth corp members leave Abuja after their service year

To so many yet to serve Youth corp members who have not visited Abuja before, FCT is to them, the city which will help to shape their life, if they are by chance, posted to Abuja, for a compulsory 1 year National youth service.  Abuja, which was projected to contain maximum of 4 million people, was divided into four phases, and 16 cadastral zones, in the original city master plan, which was designed by the city builders in 1979.  Unlike the city of Lagos which was the Nigerian capital before December 12,1991, when the capital was moved to Aso Rock, by the then military general, Ibrahim Badamosun Babangida, Abuja is a planned city. And it is not hard to see. Although, Abuja is the kind of place where you can by chance meet any of the who is who of the country, and of course the chances of meeting any of the 109 Senators, or the 360 House of Representatives members, or important members of the diplomatic community are always high, if you live in the city's center, or y...
