Podcasts about Nigeria

It's Monday, February 16th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Nigerian Muslims killed 300: How you can help! The Muslims continue to kill Catholics and Protestants in Nigeria, Africa. On February 10th, suspected Fulani Muslim militants killed more than 100 people in the Southern Taraba State, and injured thousands more, reports International Christian Concern. Armed attackers arrived in the early morning hours, when residents were asleep, unleashing gunfire and setting homes, churches, and harvested crops ablaze. And on February 3rd, Muslims killed over two hundred people in remote villages in Kwara, Katsina and Benue States, reports Christian Solidarity Worldwide. Many of the victims were found with their hands bound behind their backs and their throats cut. The dead included women and children. Judd Saul, Founder of Equipping the Persecuted, wrote, “Entire villages in the Middle Belt have been attacked. Pastors targeted. Families burned out of their homes. Survivors are now fleeing with nothing — grieving, wounded, and traumatized.” He added, “While the killing continues, something significant is finally happening in Washington, DC. After six years of relentless advocacy, briefings, intelligence reports, and meetings, legislation has now been introduced to protect persecuted Christians in Nigeria.” Republican Congressmen Riley Moore of West Virginia and Chris Smith of New Jersey introduced the Nigeria Religious Freedom and Accountability Act of 2026. Rep. Smith said, “Now that President Trump has rightly redesignated Nigeria a ‘Country of Particular Concern,' the United States has a responsibility to do its due diligence in ensuring that the Nigerian government is taking the proper steps to address and punish the systemic violence against Christians and non-radical Muslims by Islamist extremists, such as Boko Haram and Fulani terrorists.” Call your Representative today at 202-225-3121. Ask him or her to co-sponsor the Nigeria Religious Freedom and Accountability Act of 2026. You can call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to get a live operator who will connect you to the Rep.'s office. If it's after hours, just leave a voicemail with your name, phone number and the name of the bill. That number again is 202-225-3121. And prayerfully consider sending a much-need donation to Equipping the Persecuted that works with Nigerian Christians on the ground. The website is www.EquippingThePersecuted.org Assemblies of God pastor accused of sexual abuse for 20 years Pastor Rod Loy, who leads First Assembly of God in Little Rock, Arkansas has stepped aside from his role. He will face an investigation following a recent lawsuit from a former member who claims he sexually abused her for 20 years, beginning when she was 16, reports The Christian Post. Loy's church was ranked as the third-largest Assemblies of God congregation in the United States, with more than 16,500 members in 2017. It also helped to plant more than 1,350 churches in 63 nations. The claims of abuse are detailed in a civil lawsuit filed by 45-year-old Suzanne Lander in the Circuit Court of Pulaski County, Arkansas, on January 26. The lawsuit claims, “Defendant Loy exploited his position as a trusted spiritual leader to systematically groom, manipulate, and sexually abuse a vulnerable sixteen-year-old girl who had survived years of parental sexual abuse and trafficking, [He] used religious teachings and scripture to convince Plaintiff that God wanted her to submit to his sexual demands, telling her repeatedly that performing sexual acts pleased God and made her better in God's eyes.” Lander alleges that “only months” after she began attending the church as a teenager in 1996, Loy, who was then serving as executive pastor, “initiated sexual abuse.” Lander alleged that Loy told her that God wanted her to please him sexually and shockingly used Scriptures like Hebrews 13:17 to get her to comply. It says, “Obey your leaders and submit to them, for they are keeping watch over your souls, as those who will have to give an account. Let them do this with joy and not with groaning, for that would be of no advantage to you.” The lawsuit alleges that Loy's abuse of Lander spanned from 1996 to 2016, including while she was married. Matthew 18:6 says, “If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in Me—to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.” Pastor Loy, age 59, denies all the allegations, reports HelpingSurvivors.org. And the church reported that the investigation found no evidence to substantiate the allegations. Church leaders further emphasized that both Pastor Loy and the board “vehemently deny these claims” and are preparing to defend themselves in court. Father not allowed to opt 5-year-old son out of LGBT propaganda A Massachusetts judge has ruled that a father cannot pull his 5-year-old son out of kindergarten lessons that promote homosexual propaganda, reports Fox News. Last Tuesday, U.S. District Judge Dennis Saylor issued a memorandum ruling in favor of Lexington Public Schools regarding two books in the kindergarten curriculum. Judge Saylor said the two disputed books, Pink Is for Boys and Except When They Don't, do not fall under the opt-out provision because they focus on gender stereotypes rather than explicit themes. Isaiah 5:20 declares, “Woe to those who call evil good and good evil.” Gloria Gaither offers a sobering warning to Christian music industry And finally, Christian songwriter Gloria Gaither addressed a roomful of young people in the Christian music industry, reports GodTube.com. Listen. GAITHER: “I don't know what's next. I'm scared about AI [Artificial Intelligence]. You are here as a guardian of the real. That's what we're trusting you to do. And we're going to die and leave that to you. And I want you all to know that we understand the value of you, and especially because we have no idea how to do what you are doing to make 10 billion hits on whatever streams those are. “It doesn't matter. That technology is going to change. You're going to be antiquated too, but your heart is not going to be antiquated.” Together with her husband Bill, they've written 700 songs. Mrs. Gaither addressed the Christian song writers in the room and offered a sober warning. GLORIA GAITHER: “I am 83.” BILL GAITHER: “A good looking 83.” (laughter) GLORIA GAITHER: “I still believe that if I write a song and I shoot it into the air, I have no idea where it's going to land and what life it's going to change. But we've been doing this long enough to get the letters back from Australia and South Africa, and all over the planet, that said, ‘That arrow landed in my heart.' “I believe in art. When everybody is arguing, and all the debates are done and the news is turned off, art will still speak. And it will bring together people that think they hate each other. Movies do it, but nothing does it like a song. Nothing. It is distilled into three minutes of total power. Trust me. And, if you have a gift for making that, be a good steward of it because that power is dangerous in the wrong hands.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Monday, February 16th, in the year of our Lord 2026. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com).

Episode Summary:In this episode of Explaining History, Nick explores the historical processes of anti-colonial struggle in the 20th century and how they illuminate the geopolitical crises of 2026.We examine the "imperial boomerang"—how the techniques of colonial violence return to the metropole—and the shift from the age of imperial civil war (1914-1945) to the age of imperial decline. Nick discusses the recent, shocking speech by US Secretary of State Marco Rubio at the Munich Security Conference, where he urged European leaders to reclaim their "civilizational confidence" and reject the "global welfare state."From the Indian National Army to the Viet Minh, we look at how national liberation movements shattered the old empires. Nick argues that the current attempts by the US to reassert hegemony through force—in Venezuela and Nigeria—are doomed to fail against a Global South that has fundamentally changed. Is the West trying to fight 19th-century colonial wars in a 21st-century world?Key Topics:The Munich Speech: Marco Rubio's call for a return to "civilizational" power.National Liberation: How India and Vietnam broke the British and French empires.The American Empire: From the "Pax Americana" to the transactional gangster state.The Global South: Why the new non-aligned world will not submit to neocolonialism.Explaining History helps you understand the 20th Century through critical conversations and expert interviews.

In this masterclass episode, Favour Obasi-ike, MBA, MS delivers an in-depth exploration of web sales optimization (CRO - conversation rate optimization) through strategic search engine marketing (SEM). The episode focuses on the critical relationship between website speed and conversion rates, revealing how technical optimization directly impacts sales performance. Favour emphasizes that web sales are fundamentally a result of web speed, explaining that websites loading slower than 3 seconds can decrease conversion rates by at least 7%, with compounding effects reaching 20% for sites taking 10 seconds to load.The discussion covers comprehensive website optimization strategies, including image optimization (recommending WebP format over JPEG/PNG), structured data implementation with schema markup, and the importance of optimizing every website element from headers and footers to file names and internal linking structures. Favour introduces the concept of treating URLs like seeds that need time to grow, recommending a 2-3 month planning horizon for content strategy.The masterclass also explores collection pages, category optimization, and the strategic use of content hubs to create pathways for user navigation. Favour shares practical tools and resources for keyword research and competitive analysis, while emphasizing the importance of submitting websites to Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools for maximum visibility. The episode concludes with actionable advice on implementing these strategies either independently or through professional SEO consultation.Book SEO Services | Quick Links for Social Business>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Book SEO Services with Favour Obasi-ike⁠>> Visit Work and PLAY Entertainment website to learn about our digital marketing services>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our exclusive SEO Marketing community⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> Read SEO Articles>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to the We Don't PLAY Podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> Purchase Flaev Beatz Beats Online>> Favour Obasi-ike Quick Links

This episode is brought to you by the BISA Environment and Climate Politics Working Group. African Climate Futures (Oxford UP, 2025) shows how climate-changed futures are imagined in Africa and by Africans, and how these future visions shape political debates and struggles in the present. Scientific climate scenarios forecast bleak futures, with increased droughts, floods, lethal heatwaves, sea level rises, declining crop yields, and greater exposure to vector-borne diseases. Yet, African climate futures could also encompass energy transitions and socio-economic revolutions, transformed political agency and human subjectivities, and radically reparative more-than-human climate politics. At the heart of the book is an original and interdisciplinary approach. It studies official climate policy strategies and fictional texts side-by-side, as ecopolitical imaginaries that envision low-carbon, climate-changed futures, and narrate pathways from 'here' to 'there'. It discusses net zero strategies from Ethiopia, The Gambia, Nigeria, South Africa, and Zimbabwe and draws on postcolonial, feminist, and queer theory, arguing that Africanfuturist climate fiction can inspire more radical, reparative, more-than-human ecopolitical imaginaries. These stories can help us to understand the debts we all owe, imagine what reparations might entail, and explore the contours of living convivially alongside more-than-human others in heterotopian, climate-changed futures. Stories can help explore how we might feel in climate-changed futures and can help us to narrate a path through them. This book uses Africanfuturist climate fiction to inspire new ways of challenging and enriching theoretical debates in global climate change politics, including how we understand the places, temporalities, ecologies, and politics of climate futures. If we want to survive to tell new stories in liveable futures then we need to urgently and radically transform carboniferous capitalism. Carl Death joined the University of Manchester in August 2013 as a Senior Lecturer in International Political Economy, after four years in the Department of International Politics, Aberystwyth University, and a year in the School of Law and Government, Dublin City University. He has conducted research in South Africa, Tanzania and the USA, and has held visiting researcher positions at The MacMillan Centre for International and Area Studies and the Agrarian Studies Program at Yale University; the Wits Institute for Social and Economic Research (WISER) at the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg; Stellenbosch University; and the Centre for Civil Society (CCS) at the University of KwaZulu-Natal in Durban. Pauline Heinrichs is a Lecturer in War Studies (Climate and Energy) at King's College London. Her research focuses climate and energy security. Pauline has worked with and led international teams in conflict and post-conflict countries such as Ukraine and the Baltic States, leading on qualitative methods and strategic narrative analysis.

À Lagos, la clinique privée Euracare a déclaré, il y a quelques semaines, avoir lancé une enquête interne « approfondie » pour identifier les causes du décès de l'un des enfants de l'écrivaine Chimamanda Adichie. Dans un communiqué, l'établissement hospitalier privé réfute toujours les allégations de négligence médicale. Le gouverneur de l'État de Lagos a demandé à l'agence gouvernementale chargée de l'inspection des établissements de santé d'ouvrir une enquête administrative sur les circonstances du décès. Reportage lors d'une inspection d'un hôpital privé à Lagos avec des agents de l'HEMAFAA (Lagos State Health Facilities Monitoring and Accreditation Agency). De notre correspondant de retour de Lagos, Abiola Idowu observe en retrait. Son équipe d'inspecteurs scrute chaque salle et équipement de cet hôpital privé d'Ikeja. L'HEMAFAA (Lagos State Health Facilities Monitoring and Accreditation Agency) accrédite les établissements de santé de Lagos. Directrice exécutive de cette agence, Abiola Idowu diligente toutes les enquêtes liées à des erreurs médicales. « Peu importe qui vous êtes, d'où vous venez. Nous avons le devoir d'enquêter et d'aller au fond des choses. La loi nous donne le pouvoir d'agir sur tout établissement. En cas d'infraction, nous sanctionnons l'établissement. Nous ne nous arrêtons pas là. Nous renvoyons également l'affaire devant les ordres des médecins ou des infirmiers. » Dans ce type d'enquête, « parfois, tout n'est pas noir ou blanc » L'agence HEMAFAA travaille donc sur la mort brutale du fils de Chimamanda Adichie. Ce type d'enquête est familier pour le Dr Veronica Iwayemi. Cette haute fonctionnaire chapeaute notamment les 320 centres primaires de santé de la mégapole. À plusieurs reprises, Veronica Iwayemi a été confrontée à des tragédies impliquant des enfants de moins de cinq ans. « Parfois, tout n'est pas noir ou blanc, et vous ne voulez pas dire aux parents : "vous avez commis une erreur". Mais il existe un moyen de le faire sans culpabiliser les parents. S'il s'agit de notre personnel, par exemple, cette personne a été formée et d'une manière ou d'une autre, il y a quand même eu ces erreurs. Bien sûr, cette personne devra se présenter devant la commission d'enquête. » À lire aussiNigeria: le décès d'un enfant de l'autrice Chimamanda Adichie expose la crise du monde de la santé[1/2]   Au Nigeria, le ratio médecin-patient est 13 fois au-dessus de la norme de l'OMS   À chaque erreur médicale au Nigeria, des experts pointent du doigt les failles systémiques. Le ratio médecin-patient est de 1 pour 8 000, alors que l'OMS recommande 1 pour 600. De nombreux professionnels nigérians de la santé sont attirés par de meilleures conditions de travail à l'étranger. Le Dr Adenuga préside le syndicat des médecins internes de Lagos. « Les médecins nigérians partent désormais au Rwanda, en Namibie ou en Afrique du Sud pour travailler, car ces pays offrent des salaires plus élevés. Pour un travail identique, au Nigeria, on vous paiera 300 dollars. En Namibie ou au Rwanda, vous gagnerez 2 000 dollars. Alors pourquoi vouloir rester ici ? » En attendant les résultats de l'enquête de l'agence HEMAFAA, Chimamanda Adichie et sa famille vivent le deuil du petit Nkanu Nnamdi, loin des regards.

The More Sibyl Podcast Presents: 고향의 환상| Romanticizing Home: Two Months in Nigeria and What It Taught Me About Belonging — The One with Doc Ayomide | Episode 39 (2025)In a moment where diaspora conversations often swing between "I miss home" and "I'm never going back," what happens when you actually spend two months living—not visiting—in the place you left behind?This episode brings Doc Ayomide back to us on The More Siby podcast for an unfiltered conversation about my recent two-month stay in Nigeria. What started as a trip home became a masterclass in adaptation, comparison, and the uncomfortable work of holding two realities at once. We explore why we romanticize past lives from a distance, the classism we have been trained not to notice, and how obtaining a simple passport became a months-long ordeal that cost nearly a million naira and still has not been fully resolved.We also talk domestic staff, Lagos airport chaos, the five-year-old who is picking up "ọ" faster than expected, and why something about Nigeria's resilience makes American "breaking news" feel a little dramatic. Three weeks, we decided, is probably the sweet spot. Two months will teach you things you did not ask to learn. This episode will not give you closure. But if you have ever been caught between loving a place and being exhausted by it, between the version of home that lives in your chest and the one that charges you 250k for a letter, you will find company here.PS: Shout out to Nigerian teachers who reminded us what patient, collectivist education actually looks like. And to the government officers charging 250k for letters, we see you, and we are tired. Available now on all major podcast platforms.

À Lagos, la clinique Euracare a déclaré il y a quelques semaines avoir lancé une enquête interne « approfondie » pour identifier les causes du décès brutal d'un des enfants de l'écrivaine Chimamanda Adichie. Ce drame, partagé par de nombreuses familles nigérianes, met en lumière la crise systémique traversée par le monde de la santé au Nigeria. De notre correspondant de retour de Lagos, Dans un communiqué, l'établissement hospitalier privé réfute toujours les allégations de négligence médicale. Pourtant, ses équipes médicales devront répondre aux questions de la commission mise sur pied par l'État de Lagos. Efe Ose a survécu à une erreur médicale en 2008. À l'époque, cette quadragénaire est à son 7ᵉ mois de grossesse. Son médecin lui prescrit alors un médicament pourtant interdit aux femmes enceintes. 17 ans plus tard, pour Efe, la disparition brutale du fils de la romancière Chimamanda Adichie est impardonnable. « J'ai pleuré, je n'ai pas pu lire l'article en entier, témoigne-t-elle. Non, aucune mère, aucun parent ne devrait avoir à enterrer son enfant. Oh, non. Au lieu de gérer la situation, ils l'ont mal gérée. La perte d'une vie qui ne pourra jamais être retrouvée, c'est tellement douloureux. » Selon la famille de Chimamanda Adichie, Nkanu Nnamdi devait subir une ponction lombaire et une IRM. Le 6 janvier 2026, l'enfant de 21 mois ne s'est jamais réveillé, laissant derrière lui son frère jumeau. Dans un centre de santé primaire de Lagos, le Dr Esther Dabiri s'adresse à une douzaine de mamans. Toutes sont accompagnées de leur nourrisson devant être vacciné. « En tant que mère, je me range du côté de Chimamanda. Je sais ce que c'est neuf mois de stress.

- La risata, lo scherzo, il gioco, il piacere sono protagonisti del tempo di Carnevale, che infondo, con i suoi eccessi, è sempre stato visto in opposizione alla seria compostezza del cristianesimo. Il pastore battista Angelo Reginato, nella sua meditazione biblica, si chiede invece se sia possibile scrollarsi di dosso secoli di cristianesimo giudicante, per riaffermare una notizia lieta: Dio vuole il nostro piacere, sfida la nostra umanità intristita a sorridere, educa i nostri sensi a gustare la vita.-La seconda parte della puntata è dedicata alla Giornata Mondiale di Preghiera, in calendario per il 6 marzo. Un movimento mondiale di donne, un appello a pregare insieme, partendo ogni anno da una diversa regione del mondo: quest'anno la Nigeria. A Bellinzona si incontra settimanalmente un gruppo di donne, in preparazione della Giornata. Intervista con Maya Rosselli, una delle organizzatrici.

The Power of Relationship Part 5

The Key of David Part 6

Pastor Paul was doing gospel outreach in Northern India when he was arrested by police and accused of "forcing" Hindus to convert to Christianity. He wasn't forcing anyone but only sharing with people who expressed a hunger to hear the truth. When police arrived, Paul and his coworkers weren't having a service or studying the Bible; they were eating a meal. Still, it was considered a crime. "Which god are you praying to?" police asked. Little did Pastor Paul know that his faith would be tested as he heard that question repeatedly over the coming weeks. Pastor Paul and his three gospel coworkers suffered tremendously in police custody. Police threatened them constantly, putting fear in their hearts. They were repeatedly offered freedom if they would only renounce their faith in Jesus Christ. Police put the four Christians in a filthy prison cell that also served as the police station latrine. They allowed a mob of radical Hindus to beat them. Paul prayed that God would strengthen him. "Lord, please help me not to fear their words because You are in charge of every situation," Pastor Paul prayed, "You controlled the lion's mouth when Daniel went inside." As Pastor Paul fervently prayed, the Lord provided him many opportunities to share his faith in Christ and the strength to stand firm against the enemy's schemes. Listen as he shares his prayer for a forgiving heart when police threatened to beat him, stories of times the Lord gave him moments of relief, and how God sustained him even when his coworkers renounced Christ and turned their backs on him. The Lord opened fellow prisoners' hearts to hear more about his faith as they watched Pastor Paul. Living out 1 Peter 3:15, he made the most of every opportunity to share the hope of Jesus Christ. Mistreatment and terrible prison conditions impacted Paul's health; he thought he was going to die. When his wife was finally allowed to visit, he assumed it would be the last time he saw her on earth. He encouraged her to continue forward with Christ and not turn back, even if he died in prison. Paul had two final requests as he cried out to the Lord: to see revival in Uttar Pradesh state, and for the Lord to allow another pastor to be arrested and come and encourage him in prison. Tune in next week to hear the rest of Pastor Paul's story and whether God answered his request. Pray this week for the Lord to give our brothers and sisters in India strength and courage to withstand Christian persecution and hold fast to their faith in spite of anti-conversion laws and unjust treatment by the Hindu nationalist government.

Bienvenue dans Grand reportage, le supplément du samedi pour retrouver deux reportages diffusés cette semaine. Direction le Nigeria, le pays le plus peuplé d'Afrique, 220 millions d'habitants, régulièrement sur le devant de l'actualité en raison des violences qui opposent différentes communautés... En 2è partie, la boxe thaï qui trouve des adeptes dans plus d'un pays. Dans son berceau thaïlandais, c'est toute une histoire, toute une culture et les femmes montent maintenant sur le ring. Nigeria : quand l'insécurité devient une affaire américaine Nigeria, dans le nord-ouest, dans la nuit du 25 décembre 2025. Des missiles américains, tirés depuis le golfe de Guinée, frappent par surprise les régions de Sokoto et de Kwara. Les cibles sont mal définies. Des députés américains – relayés par Donald Trump - dénoncent depuis des mois de prétendus « massacres », voire un « génocide » des chrétiens du Nigeria. Sur le terrain, la situation est pourtant beaucoup plus complexe – alors que musulmans et chrétiens subissent au quotidien la violence des groupes armés. Liza Fabbian, envoyée spéciale de RFI, s'est rendue dans l'État de Kaduna, touché comme tant d'autres, par ces troubles endémiques... Un Grand reportage de Liza Fabbian qui s'entretient avec Jacques Allix. Boxe thaï : les femmes à la conquête du ring  « Femmes, ne touchez pas le ring s'il vous plaît »… cette inscription a longtemps figuré devant les cordes du ring d'un des plus grands stades de Bangkok. La boxe thaï, art ancestral thaïlandais, sport de combat, existe depuis des siècles au Royaume de Siam. Elle a très longtemps été réservée aux hommes. Mais, depuis quelques années, les femmes sont de plus en plus nombreuses à se faire une place dans cet art martial qui est aussi une industrie lucrative. Parfois même, de jeunes enfants sont embrigadés. Ce qui soulève bien des interrogations alors que Nations unies et associations alertent sur le danger de cette pratique… Un Grand reportage de Juliette Chaignon qui s'entretient avec Jacques Allix. 

Nigeria jest najludniejszym krajem Afryki. Żyje tam blisko 250 milionów ludzi, którzy należą do niezliczonych grup etnicznych i kulturowych. Nie bez znaczenia są również różnice religijne, co bywa podłożem konfliktów. W części kraju funkcjonują silne organizacje fundamentalistów islamskich, z którymi od lat ścierają się siły rządowe. Mimo tego Nigeria wciąż uznawana jest za jedno z najważniejszych państw regionu.

Au Nigeria, l'État de Lagos a ordonné en décembre la destruction d'une bonne partie du bidonville de Makoko, une communauté de pêcheurs historique, bâtie sur pilotis en bord de lagune. Les autorités avancent des raisons de sécurité pour éloigner les habitations de lignes à haute tension. Elles ont aussi annoncé cette semaine avoir conclu un accord de développement urbain avec certains chefs de Makoko. Mais les habitants, qui ont tout perdu, ont du mal à croire que ces projets leur bénéficieront.  De notre envoyée spéciale à Lagos, Certaines familles de pêcheurs sont établies depuis des générations dans la communauté de Makoko. Parmi ces habitants, il y en a qui sont originaires de Badagry ou ont des liens avec le Bénin voisin. C'est le cas de Marcel Adigban. Avec sa compagne, ils font partie des expulsés du bidonville. « Nos parents étaient ici depuis plus de cent ans et un jour, on vient et on nous dit qu'on doit quitter les lieux !, alerte-t-il. C'était vraiment très difficile, parce qu'on n'avait pas planifié d'aller à un autre endroit. Ils ont tout cassé, notre maison... Il n'y a plus rien quoi ! » Marcel et sa jeune compagne disent que leur nouveau-né, âgé de quelques jours, est décédé, suite à l'inhalation de gaz lacrymogènes lancés par les forces de sécurité pour disperser les habitants avant le passage des bulldozers. « Quand ils ont voulu prendre notre place, ils auraient pu nous laisser un autre endroit, mais ils ne l'ont pas fait, poursuit Marcel Adigban. Je ne sais pas quelles intentions ils ont... » Selon lui, les choses auraient pu se dérouler autrement : « Quand on veut déloger quelqu'un, il faut d'abord le prévenir, lui dire qu'il ne va pas rester là, que tel jour on va venir et qu'on va lui trouver un autre endroit, mais ils n'ont rien fait ! Nous sommes partis chercher un autre terrain, mais où est l'argent pour payer ? », finit-il par s'interroger.

Des travaux de remblai ont commencé en même temps que les opérations de démolition. « Moi, je pense que le gouvernement essaie de prendre notre terre pour la donner aux riches de Lagos ou construire des hôtels, estime Roderick Tosin Ayinde, qui dirige une école à Makoko. C'est exactement ce qu'ils ont fait dans certaines communautés, comme Tarkwa Bay. Parce que les îles de Lagos sont très peuplées, donc ils ont besoin de plus de terrains pour construire. » Le gouvernement de l'État de Lagos évoque un investissement de 10 millions de dollars, dont une grande partie pourrait être financée par les Nations unies. Pendant ce temps, la situation humanitaire sur place nécessiterait des mesures d'urgence, selon Betty Abah, qui dirige l'ONG CEE-Hope. « Les autorités ont bien fait comprendre qu'elles ne voulaient pas discuter avec les avocats ou les ONG, pour avoir les mains libres et exploiter l'ignorance de quelques chefs communautaires, analyse la directrice d'ONG. Que font-ils pour reloger les gens ? Où sont les compensations financières ? Pourquoi un projet de développement urbain doit-il coûter des vies humaines ?! », s'indigne-t-elle. Pour l'heure, les autorités ont promis de stopper les démolitions et les expulsions, mais exhortent la population à ne rien reconstruire sur les ruines de Makoko.

Help Persecuted Christians TODAY: https://csi-usa.org/ Christian Solidarity International On today's Quick Start podcast: NEWS: A growing dispute between the FBI and the Pima County Sheriff's Office is raising questions in the Nancy Guthrie investigation. Federal sources claim key DNA evidence was kept from the FBI crime lab in Quantico, while Sheriff Chris Nanos strongly denies blocking access and says investigators agreed to keep all samples together at one lab. Meanwhile, surveillance footage of a masked suspect has been released, more than 13,000 tips have poured in, and the reward has climbed to $100,000 as the urgent search continues. FOCUS STORY: Does modern archaeology confirm the Bible — or contradict it? For years, some scholars cast doubt on whether King David even existed. But a major discovery in northern Israel reshaped the debate. CBN's Raj Nair travels to the Holy Land with Israeli tour guide Yoav Rotem to explore how archaeology is challenging skeptics and strengthening confidence in Scripture. MAIN THING: New images from Nigeria reveal the horrific reality facing Christians targeted in ongoing attacks. Advocates say the violence is systematic and underreported. Alex Barbir of Building Zion, recently back from Nigeria, explains why the persecution crisis is worse than many realize — and why believers there say they feel forgotten by the global community. LAST THING: Matthew 5:10-12 — “Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” PRAY WITH US!

À la veille de la Saint-Valentin, focus sur une industrie criminelle aussi méconnue qu'efficace : l'arnaque aux sentiments. Derrière les promesses d'amour se cache une économie mondialisée, ultra-organisée et désormais dopée à l'intelligence artificielle, qui brasse chaque année des milliards d'euros. L'arnaque aux sentiments repose sur un modèle efficace. Les escrocs créent de faux profils sur des sites de rencontres, des réseaux sociaux ou des applications de messagerie. Ils mettent en scène des identités valorisantes : ingénieurs expatriés, médecins humanitaires, entrepreneurs prospères, voire parfois des personnalités connues. L'objectif est clair, instaurer une relation affective intense en échangeant quotidiennement pendant plusieurs semaines, voire plusieurs mois, afin de bâtir un climat de confiance solide. Progressivement, le lien émotionnel s'intensifie, la victime s'attache, se projette, et baisse sa vigilance. Puis vient le moment du piège. Une urgence surgit, un billet d'avion à payer pour une rencontre tant attendue, un problème de santé soudain, un compte bancaire bloqué. La victime, déjà émotionnellement engagée, envoie de l'argent. D'abord de petites sommes, pour se rassurer. Puis, l'engrenage se met en place. Les demandes deviennent plus fréquentes, plus importantes, jusqu'à provoquer parfois un véritable effondrement financier. Des usines à arnaques en Asie et une tradition bien ancrée en Afrique Loin du cliché de l'escroc solitaire derrière son écran, l'arnaque sentimentale est aujourd'hui une industrie mondialisée, structurée et hiérarchisée. Certaines enquêtes récentes ont révélé l'existence de véritables « usines à arnaques » en Asie du Sud-Est. Dans d'immenses complexes, des plateaux entiers d'ordinateurs sont occupés par des équipes qui se relaient 24 heures sur 24 afin de couvrir tous les fuseaux horaires. Selon une étude de l'université du Texas, ces seuls réseaux asiatiques auraient extorqué près de 75 milliards de dollars entre 2020 et 2024. Une somme vertigineuse, qui illustre la dimension industrielle de cette cybercriminalité. L'Afrique de l'Ouest constitue également un foyer historique de ces pratiques, notamment pour les victimes francophones. En Côte d'Ivoire, les « brouteurs », au Nigeria les « yahoo boys », et au Cameroun les « feymen » incarnent ces figures désormais bien connues. La méthode y reste souvent plus artisanale, moins structurée qu'en Asie, mais les gains peuvent être considérables. Certains escrocs expérimentés parviennent à générer plusieurs dizaines de milliers d'euros par an. Intelligence artificielle, banques sous pression et humanité détournée La montée en puissance de l'intelligence artificielle a marqué un tournant. Désormais, les escrocs peuvent produire de faux appels vidéo ultracréditbles, combinant voix, visage et gestuelle réalistes. La fraude devient ainsi industrielle, automatisée et surtout hyper-personnalisée. La frontière entre le vrai et le faux s'efface, renforçant encore la vulnérabilité des victimes. Cette explosion des arnaques pose un défi majeur aux banques. L'enjeu est financier, juridique et réputationnel. Les établissements doivent gérer un afflux croissant de litiges tout en respectant leurs obligations de vigilance sur les mouvements de fonds. Mais comment bloquer un virement lorsque le client est lui-même persuadé d'agir par amour ? Pour répondre à ce défi, des acteurs spécialisés ont émergé, à l'image de Feedzaï, qui développe des solutions capables d'identifier en temps réel les transactions suspectes grâce à l'analyse comportementale et à l'intelligence artificielle. Toutefois, même les technologies les plus avancées ne peuvent tout empêcher. Car la véritable faille reste humaine. L'arnaque aux sentiments exploite ce qu'il y a de plus intime : le besoin d'amour, de reconnaissance et de lien. La manipulation émotionnelle est au cœur du système. Dans cette économie souterraine mondialisée, l'amour devient peu à peu un produit financier comme un autre.

Au Nigeria, l'Assemblée législative de l'État de Lagos a ordonné l'arrêt immédiat des démolitions dans le bidonville sur pilotis de Makoko, mardi 10 février, après avoir trouvé un accord avec les communautés affectées par ces déguerpissements. Le gouvernement prévoit des investissements pour réhabiliter ce quartier historique, construit au bord de la lagune. Ces deux derniers mois, des centaines, voire des milliers d'habitants ont perdu leur toit dans de brutales opérations de démolition. De notre envoyée spéciale de retour de Lagos, Les habitations de bois sont tombées comme des tas d'allumettes sous les coups des bulldozers. Un tiers au moins de Makoko a été détruit, selon ses habitants. Des dizaines de personnes vivent toujours au milieu des ruines, sous le soleil ou la pluie battante. Les machines se sont arrêtées juste avant l'école dirigée par Roderick Tosin Ayinde. « Il y a un an environ, on a appris que, pour des raisons de sécurité, le gouvernement voulait détruire les maisons qui se situent sous les lignes à haute tension qui traversent la lagune, relate-t-il. Nous nous sommes mis d'accord sur un périmètre de 30 mètres au-delà des lignes électriques, mais après avoir commencé, ils ont dit qu'ils devaient aller plus loin. » Les autorités négocient alors avec les représentants communautaires pour agrandir la zone de destruction à 100 mètres des lignes électriques. « Nous étions en colère, mais il n'y avait rien à faire. Comment se battre contre le gouvernement ?, s'interroge ce directeur d'école. Donc, nous avons mesuré nous-mêmes le périmètre de cent mètres, nous l'avons délimité avec des drapeaux nigérians, mais ils ont dépassé cette limite ! C'est là qu'ils ont commencé à tirer des gaz lacrymogènes, nous avons été forcés de nous enfuir ».

Des églises, des écoles ont été détruites pendant ces opérations de déguerpissement, qui ont créé une véritable crise humanitaire en plein cœur de Lagos. « J'ai reçu un appel alors que j'étais au marché, ma maison est au-delà des cent mètres, mais elle a été détruite, déplore Rachida, elle aussi surprise par ces destructions. À l'intérieur, il y avait des cartons avec du poisson, du bois pour le fumer, mais tout a été détruit... Il n'y a plus de toit, plus d'abris, nulle part où aller. Ce qui me fait le plus de peine, c'est que mes enfants ne peuvent même plus aller à l'école. » Le gouvernement a démenti tout décès lors de ces expulsions. Pourtant, Édith, une autre vendeuse de poisson, raconte une tout autre histoire. « Je revenais de l'hôpital avec mon bébé, juste après avoir accouché, en janvier. En arrivant à Makoko, j'ai été prise dans les tirs de gaz lacrymogènes, j'ai eu si peur que j'ai couru, j'ai sauté dans l'eau avec mon bébé. Après cela, il respirait mal et il est mort peu après. Aujourd'hui, je dors dans un bateau avec mes deux autres enfants. » Le gouvernement de l'État de Lagos prévoit désormais d'investir environ 10 millions de dollars dans la rénovation de Makoko avec l'appui des Nations unies. En attendant une évaluation de la situation, les habitants sont sommés de ne pas tenter de reconstruire leurs habitations sur pilotis.  À écouter dans Grand reportageNigeria : quand l'insécurité devient une affaire américaine

The recent House Judiciary Committee hearing featuring Attorney General Pam Bondi turned into a chaotic spectacle, with Democrats like Rep. Pramila Jayapal (Wash.) dramatically demanding that Bondi turn around and apologize directly to Jeffrey Epstein victims seated behind her, only for Bondi to dismiss it as "theatrics" and refuse outright. She relied on a bizarre "burn book" binder of prepped personal attacks on Democrats, flipping pages on cue from staff to hurl unrelated insults instead of answering straightforward questions, which one lawmaker mocked by begging her to find his own page.

It's Thursday, February 12th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Olympics can prompt prayer among Christian viewers (Audio of Olympic theme song) Over 3,500 athletes from 93 countries are competing at the 2026 Winter Olympics Games in Milan, Italy this month. Fourteen of these countries are on the Open Doors' World Watch List of the most oppressive places to be a Christian. Those countries include Eritrea, Nigeria, Pakistan, Iran, India, and China.  Open Doors has a message for Christian viewers of the Olympics. They said, “Use the Olympics in a potentially surprising way: to pray.  … Take a moment to think about the situation of your brothers and sisters in that country and pray for it.” You can reference the organization's prayer guide for each country through a link in our transcript today at TheWorldview.com.  Ephesians 6:18 says, “Pray at all times in the Spirit with every prayer and request, and stay alert with all perseverance and intercession for all the saints.” Canadian gunman killed 10 people at school Tragically, a transgender shooter opened fire at a Canadian school on Tuesday, reports LifeSiteNews.com. Jesse Strang, a 17-year-old male pretending to be a female while wearing a dress, reportedly killed 10 people including himself.  He also injured 25 people. It's Canada's deadliest school shooting in decades.   The shooting took place at Tumbler Ridge Secondary School in northeastern British Columbia which has fewer than 200 students enrolled in Grades 7 through 12. Chris Elston, a Canadian pro-family activist, said, “He was a young man who needed serious help for his mental health. Instead, his delusion was affirmed, and the result is murdered innocent children.” Later, Elston added, “Someone needed to tell this kid the truth and help him to be happy as a man, but it's illegal to do so. It's a criminal offense of conversion therapy. So, he never got help and he got worse. Murdered children paid the price for our politicians' stupidity and cowardice. Not even our police can call him a man. A cult has taken over our society. “ Please pray for the families suffering through this unimaginable loss. YouVersion Bible engagement up dramatically in Latin America Online Bible platforms are seeing unprecedented engagement in Latin America so far this year. This trend marks a year since the YouVersion Bible platform established a regional office in Mexico City. On January 1, nearly two million people subscribed to Bible reading plans. And the app saw over 22.2 million active users on the first Sunday of the year. This marks a 20% growth from last year. Countries with record levels of engagement include Mexico, Colombia, Argentina, and El Salvador.   Only 31% o Protestants read Bible daily In the United States, new analysis from Lifeway Research found most Protestant churchgoers don't read the Bible on a daily basis. Seventeen percent of churchgoers read the Bible at least monthly. Fourteen percent read weekly. Thirty percent read a few times a week. And only 31% read the Bible daily. However, the percentage of churchgoers who read the Bible daily or at least a few times a week is now 61%. That's up from 36% in 2007.

I just think, at this point, this study, it's vital. It should be done. I don't have any confidence that the FDA is actually going to do it. And, in the meantime, abortions in this country are increasing. There are more abortions now than when Roe was the law of the land. And that's because of this chemical abortion.” U.S. homicides down 20% The Major Cities Chiefs Association released its latest report on violent crime in the U.S. The report collects data from 67 of America's biggest police departments. Compared to 2024, reported homicides were down nearly 20% last year. And reported violent crimes are falling after a surge of reports during the COVID-era shutdowns. 130,000 new American jobs The United States added 130,000 jobs in January, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Analysts expected only 55,000 jobs. It's the biggest job growth in over a year. The gains were led by healthcare, social assistance, and construction.  The unemployment rate remained slightly elevated at 4.3%. 92% of Americans like religious themes in movies & TV And finally, a new survey found most Americans are open to religious themes in movies and TV shows. The 2026 Faith & Entertainment Index found 92% of U.S. adults say faith has a role to play in modern entertainment. And 77% believe it can have broad appeal. Brooke Zaugg, executive director of the Faith & Media Initiative, said, “Religion can feel scary to talk about — like politics — so it creates the illusion that it's a small group. That makes it easy for filmmakers to oversimplify it or not give it much thought, instead of recognizing how valuable faith storytelling can be when it's done well.”  Close And that's The Worldview on this Thursday, February 12th, in the year of our Lord 2026. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com).

In this episode of the Pal's Podcast, Dani Galarneau and Ricky Liorti sit down with Obi, reality TV star from Netflix's Too Hot to Handle, fitness coach, and former football athlete. Most people know Obi from Too Hot to Handle, but this conversation goes beyond reality TV. Obi shares his story of being born in Nigeria, growing up in Winnipeg, and chasing his dream of playing in the CFL. After suffering eight concussions, he was forced to walk away from football and completely reinvent his life. We talk about identity loss, athlete grief, mental health, career pivots, and what life is really like after Netflix fame. Obi opens up about the financial pressure of being a public figure, the challenges of social media influence, and rebuilding confidence after losing the sport that defined him. If you are interested in reality TV, Too Hot to Handle, athlete mental health, life after football, personal growth, or reinventing yourself after a setback, this episode is for you. This is the side of Obi you did not see on TV.

Nigeria, dans le nord-ouest, dans la nuit du 25 décembre 2025. Des missiles américains, tirés depuis le golfe de Guinée, frappent par surprise les régions de Sokoto et de Kwara. Les cibles sont mal définies. Des députés américains – relayés par Donald Trump - dénoncent depuis des mois de prétendus « massacres », voire un « génocide » des chrétiens du Nigeria. Sur le terrain, la situation est pourtant beaucoup plus complexe – alors que musulmans et chrétiens subissent au quotidien la violence des groupes armés. Liza Fabbian, envoyée spéciale de RFI, s'est rendue dans l'État de Kaduna, touché comme tant d'autres, par ces troubles endémiques... « Nigeria : quand l'insécurité devient une affaire américaine », un Grand reportage de Liza Fabbian.

Les journalistes et experts de RFI répondent également à vos questions sur l'intervention de soldats américains au Nigeria, des nouvelles mesures d'annexion en Cisjordanie et la proposition iranienne de diluer son uranium. Sénégal : jusqu'où ira la colère étudiante ?   Lundi (9 février 2026), la tension est montée d'un cran à l'UCAD, Université Cheikh Anta Diop de Dakar. Alors que les étudiants protestent depuis des semaines pour réclamer le paiement de leurs arriérés de bourse, les forces de l'ordre ont fait irruption sur le campus social. Des affrontements ont alors éclaté entre la police et des étudiants. Le bilan est lourd, un étudiant est décédé et une centaine d'autres ont été blessés. Que sait-on des circonstances de sa mort ? Comment les autorités justifient-elles le retard dans le versement des bourses ? Quelles mesures propose le gouvernement pour calmer cette crise ? Avec Léa-Lisa Westerhoff, correspondante permanente à Dakar.       Nigeria : l'arrivée de militaires américains permettra-t-elle de stopper l'avancée des jihadistes ?   Le président Bola Tinubu a ordonné le déploiement de l'armée dans le district de Kaiama, au centre-ouest du pays, après une attaque de présumés jihadistes qui a a fait au moins 162 morts. Alors que l'armée nigériane fait partie des meilleures d'Afrique, comment expliquer l'absence de militaires dans les zones où la présence de Boko Haram est avérée ? Le renforcement de la coopération militaire avec les États-Unis, avec l'arrivée prochaine de 200 militaires, permettra-t-il de contrer la menace terroriste ? Avec Liza Fabbian, journaliste au service Afrique de RFI.      Israël : vers une annexion totale de la Cisjordanie ?   Sous l'impulsion de la droite conservatrice, Israël a validé une série de mesures administratives et juridiques lui permettant d'accentuer son contrôle sur la Cisjordanie occupée.

Quelles peuvent être les conséquences sur le déroulé de la deuxième phase du plan de paix de Donald Trump ? Quelle sera la réaction du président américain ? Avec Frédérique Misslin, correspondante permanente de RFI à Jérusalem.       Iran : la dilution de l'uranium permettra-t-elle de lever les sanctions ?   Après des semaines de tensions avec les États-Unis et alors que des négociations sont en cours notamment sur le nucléaire, l'Iran propose de diluer une partie de son uranium enrichi en échange de la levée total des sanctions. « Diluer l'uranium », que faut-il comprendre ? Cette annonce peut-elle satisfaire Donald Trump ? Est-il réaliste d'imaginer une levée des sanctions contre Téhéran ? Avec Emmanuelle Galichet, enseignante-chercheuse en sciences et technologies nucléaires au Cnam.

Those who hope to honor God and advance Jesus' Kingdom face powerful opposition from spiritual, physical, and psychological enemies. Successful launching and long term fruitfulness depends on recognizing and, in dependence on the Holy Spirit, waging war against those enemies.

It's News Day Tuesday on the Majority Report On today's program: The Trump administration continues its efforts to cover up the Epstein files. Rep. Becca Balint (D-VT) says that she looked into the unredacted Epstein files and discovered that Donald Trump never kicked Epstein out Mar-a-Lago as he claims. Ghislaine and Epstein both invoked the fifth amendment when asked about their experiences with Donald Trump. Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) points out the inconsistency in Ghislaine Maxwell not pleading the fifth when she spoke to Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche but now is using the fifth over questions that do not implicate her. Journalists from ProPublica, Jodi Cohen and Melissa Sanchez join Sam for a conversation about their piece "The Real Story Behind the Midnight Immigration Raid on a Chicago Apartment Building". In the Fun Half:   Trump administration is expecting a devastating job numbers report on Wednesday and so they have sent out Peter Navarro and Kevin Hassett to blame the numbers on immigrants.   The pedophile formerly known as Prince Andrew's ex-girlfriend says if you're not in the Epstein files "you're a loser".   Howard Lutnick says he searched himself in the Epstein files "just like everyone else".   Bill Maher is an idiot and a shill. His shilling and stupidity are especially blatant when he monologues about how kids aren't protesting the Christian massacres in Nigeria because "it doesn't involve Jews".         all that and more To connect and organize with your local ICE rapid response team visit ICERRT.com The Congress switchboard number is (202) 224-3121.

Let's talk about US boots in Nigeria....

Exposing the True Persecution of Christians: Nigeria vs. Media Narratives In this episode of 'Ideas Have Consequences,' Larry Alex Taunton addresses the overlooked genocide of Christians in Nigeria, largely ignored by Western media. Taunton critiques Tucker Carlson's misleading claims around Christian persecution, emphasizing first-hand observations from his travels to Israel, Nigeria, and Gaza. Offering a well-researched rebuttal to Carlson's assertions, Taunton highlights the dangers faced by Nigerian Christians from terrorist groups like Boko Haram and the Ani Hersman militia. Additionally, he rebukes the misrepresented narrative of persecution in Israel, urging for a more factual and on-ground understanding of these critical global issues.

It's Tuesday, February 10th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson, Timothy Reed, and Adam McManus Hong Kong man critical of Chinese Communists sentenced to 20 years In a Hong Kong court, religious freedom and free speech advocate Jimmy Lai has been sentenced to twenty years in prison for publishing articles against the communist Chinese government. Lai is a British Citizen and an adherent of the Catholic Church. World journalists are marking the case as a worldwide setback for freedom of speech and freedom of the press. The United Kingdom home office has responded to the news. The Hong Kong Free Press reports that “British national status holders will be able to immigrate into the U.K. with their children. The office estimates that 26,000 people will arrive in the U.K. over the next five years.” Thousands of Tanzanians murdered Political upheaval, tyranny, and blood in the streets is the order of the day in Tanzania over the last few months.  Some reports have revealed the government of President Samia Suluhu Hassan killed thousands of Tanzanians. Hassan is a Muslim who was re-elected in a landslide victory last October, marred by accusations of massive fraud.  That's when the African country was plunged into chaos and rioting.  The bloodshed and terror has gone on for months, reports The Washington Stand. In an effort to conceal the atrocities taking place there, the government has reportedly shut down the internet. Tanzania is at least nominally Christian with a 57 percent Christian population and a 37 percent Muslim population, as the Muslim creep hits south Saharan Africa. Christian martyrdom grows with Muslim population in Nigeria Islamic influence is growing in Nigeria as well — a nation where 56 percent of the population is Muslim and 43 percent is Christian. This has resulted in the martyrdom of 50,000 Christians and the displacement of millions of Christians from their homeland.   Pray for our Christian brothers and sisters and the people of Tanzania, Nigeria, and Uganda.  Civilian killings continue in Nigeria Last Tuesday, almost 200 Nigerians were killed by gunmen in the communities of Woro and Katsina, reports the International Center for Transitional Justice. Woro is located in the western Nigerian state of Kwara, while Katsina is in the northern region of the country. Psalm 35:1 says, “Plead my cause, O LORD, with them that strive with me: fight against them that fight against me.” War Department will no longer work with Harvard War Secretary Pete Hegseth announced that the War Department will no longer send military officers to Harvard. He slammed the university for what he called its support of terrorism and the Chinese Communist Party.   Hegseth said, “Too many of our officers came back looking too much like Harvard — heads full of globalist and radical ideologies that do not improve our fighting ranks.” The War Department is set to re-evaluate all Ivy League school partnerships.  Virginia Democrats unveil gerrymandered congressional map Democrat lawmakers in Virginia put forward a new congressional map heading into the midterm elections this November. The Old Dominion state map heavily favors Democrats, giving them four extra seats, while the Republicans would lose four seats. This comes after the Supreme Court ruled that the new congressional map for California was valid, giving Democrats five additional seats. Virginia Democrats swept the last election, winning races for Governor, Lieutenant Governor, and Attorney General.  All told, gerrymandering in Virginia, California, and a few other states should yield the Democrats an additional 5 to 9 seats in Congress in 2026. And gerrymandering in Texas, North Carolina, and Missouri could yield the Republicans an additional 6 to 10 seats in the upcoming election. Connecticut works to expand abortion access Connecticut is launching a billboard campaign to promote abortion and death, reports LifeSiteNews. The campaign, sponsored by the Reproductive Equity Now Foundation, is advertising the state's commitment to make the killing of unborn children more accessible. Billboards will announce a state-provided pro-abortion hotline.  Connecticut Democrat Attorney General William Tong talked about his state's culture of death. He said, “Abortion is safe, legal and accessible here in Connecticut, and that's the way it's going to stay.”  But Proverbs 31:9 instructs us to “Open your mouth, judge righteously, and plead the cause of the poor and needy.” GOP Rep chastises NBC & NFL for Bad Bunny's foul lyrics And finally, Sunday's Super Bowl half-time show turned into one big leftist political statement with Benito Ocasio, known as Bad Bunny, and a few other characters, who openly opposed President Trump's “America First” policies.   To his shame, the Puerto Rican singer sang a bunch of foul-mouthed, sexually-explicit lyrics in Spanish. Republican Congressman Randy Fine of Florida did not pull any punches in his X post. He wrote, “You can't say the f-word on live TV. Bad Bunny's disgusting halftime show was illegal. Had he said these lyrics -- and all of the other disgusting and pornographic filth -- in English on live TV, the broadcast would have been pulled down and the fines would have been enormous. “We are sending FCC Chairman Brendan Carr a letter calling for dramatic action, including fines and broadcast license reviews, against the NFL, NBC, and Bad Bunny. Lock them up.” You can send a short 2-4 sentence letter to FCC Chairman Brendan Carr, urging him to levy these fines.  The address is Federal Communications Commission, 45 L Street NE, Washington, DC 20554. Kid Rock, on Turning Point USA's half-time show, pointed to Christ Meanwhile, Turning Point USA, founded by the late Charlie Kirk, simulcast their alternative “All-American Halftime Show” featuring Robert Ritchie known as Kid Rock. Some 20 to 30 million Americans tuned in, reports Fox News. Kid Rock threw in another verse to the hit song “Til You Can't.” Check out the lyrics. KID ROCK: “There's a book a'sitting in your house somewhere that could use some dusting off . . . There's a man who died for all our sins a'hanging from the cross. You can give your life to Jesus and He'll give you a second chance, till you can't.”  Other performers included Brantley Gilbert, Lee Brice, and Gabby Barrett.  War Secretary Pete Hegseth and House Speaker Mike Johnson both praised the Turning Point event, reports Politico.

Extra stories Trump administration provides lower costs on prescription drugs President Donald Trump unveiled Trump Rx, a plan that brings down medicine costs for American citizens. Trump Rx negotiates lower rates with drug companies, passing the savings directly to the consumer. The plan specifically helps those who pay for medications out of pocket. The president is calling on lawmakers to pass healthcare reform through Congress to further codify his agenda.   Senator launches caucus against Sharia Law Republican Senator Tommy Tuberville of Alabama launched the new Sharia-Free America Caucus in the U.S. Congress, and has introduced a bill to ban Sharia Law in the United States. Tuberville said, “The strength of our country comes from one law applied equally to all. We cannot allow competing systems of governance to weaken that foundation.”
