Imagine waking up one morning, scrolling through your phone, and suddenly seeing the wedding invitation of someone you thought you had a future with. Maybe it was your talking stage, someone you were considering, or someone who told you they weren’t ready for a relationship. Maybe it was a person you had already fallen in love with or even someone you believed you were in a relationship with. Worse still, it could be an ex you broke up with just a few months ago. The shock, the pain, the confusion it’s a lot to handle.

At that moment, anger and hurt may take over. Questions will flood your mind. Did they lie to me? Was I just a backup plan? How did I not see this coming? You may even begin to feel like they just used you to feed their intimate pleasure. The betrayal may feel unbearable, but the truth is, no matter how painful, this might be a blessing in disguise.

Fighting the person or letting bitterness take over will not change anything. Instead, take a deep breath and remind yourself that sometimes, disappointments are God’s way of clearing your path for something better. If they were meant for you, they wouldn’t be marrying someone else.

Come o, No vex but have you even take out time to ask yourself this question?, What if the person you are toasting as a guy or considering accepting his proposal as a lady is already planning their future with someone else? It’s painful to think about, but it also means you deserve someone who truly chooses you, not someone who keeps you as an option.

Healing takes time, but let this be your turning point. Wish them well, walk away with grace, and trust that your own love story is still being written, one that will be true, intentional, and lasting. Hope this blessed you? Shalom!

Press Statement



Disregard Falsehoods Being Peddled by Tigran Gambaryan against Nigerian Government Officials – FG



The Federal Government of Nigeria notes with concern the outrageous allegations, misinformation, and defamatory statements being disseminated by Tigran Gambaryan, an American personnel of Binance who was recently tried in Nigeria for financial crimes.



While the Federal Government of Nigeria is reluctant to engage Mr. Gambaryan, due to the high-level diplomatic intervention that resolved his case, we are compelled to set the record straight to prevent his falsehoods from gaining traction.



The first visit of Mr. Gambaryan and his colleagues to Nigeria was at their own discretion, and the Government was not officially involved. However, when the Government's attention was drawn to an alleged bribery demand during that trip, an investigation was immediately launched, despite there being no formal complaint from anyone.



Mr. Gambaryan's second visit to Nigeria was part of a wider probe into the criminal manipulation of the Nigerian currency through peer-to-peer platforms like Binance, but investigators were frustrated by the tactics deployed by Gambaryan and his team.



Mr. Gambaryan was released by the Nigerian government in October 2024 on humanitarian grounds and following a high-level diplomatic intervention that ended with tangible benefits for Nigeria. The government rejected Binance's offer of a $5 million down payment in exchange for Mr. Gambaryan's freedom, in favour of a more beneficial settlement with the American government.



We categorically deny the retaliatory claims made by Mr. Gambaryan against Nigerian officials involved in his case, and we urge the public to disregard these false accusations in their entirety.



It is essential to note that Mr. Gambaryan's allegations are not only unsubstantiated but also lack credibility, given his apparent motive to discredit and intimidate those who ensured he faced justice.



However, we are confident that both the Nigerian and American judicial systems will provide Mr. Gambaryan with a fair opportunity to substantiate his claims in court. Until then, we advise the public to exercise caution and not be swayed by Mr. Gambaryan's unfounded and malicious claims.



Mohammed Idris

Honourable Minister of Information and National Orientation.

The Power of Eating Fresh

Fresh foods like fruits, vegetables, and whole grains provide essential nutrients that keep your body strong and energized. Unlike processed foods, fresh ingredients retain their vitamins and minerals, supporting better digestion and immune function. Making small changes, like choosing a salad over fast food, can have long-term benefits. Prioritize fresh foods in your diet, and your body will thank you!

It's better to pay the price by being disciplined today...

Than to pay the price due to regret tomorrow.

You have everything to create a better future for yourself, just do it!

You can scroll daily for years without complaining...

But immediately you're asked to start a business, you will start saying "I don't have time"...

It's high time you changed your priorities... Start now!

3️⃣ *Conservative Friedrich Merz is the strong favourite to become Germany's next chancellor* after a bitterly fought campaign roiled by the rise of the AfD, a far-right party backed by Team Trump.

Barring a last-minute upset in Sunday's election, *Merz's CDU/CSU bloc is leading the polls and on course to defeat Chancellor Olaf Scholz's Social Democrats (SPD)* to make the 69-year-old former investment lawyer the next leader of Europe's biggest economy.

*His victory would cap months of political turmoil* since *Scholz's troubled three-party coalition imploded in November* -- but grave challenges loom for Merz and his *pledge to fix Germany's ailing economy* and rebuild its international stature.

The *election comes at a time of rapid and unsettling change for Germany and Europe,* after US President Donald *Trump reached out over their heads to Russia* to try to end the Ukraine war, sparking grave fears for future transatlantic ties.

2️⃣ *The US national security advisor has warned Ukraine's president* to stop hurling _"insults"_ at Donald Trump, as *pressure builds on Volodymyr Zelensky to sign away mineral rights* in exchange for Washington's help defending against Russia.

*Tensions between the US president and Zelensky over the proposed rare earths deal* -- which Kyiv has rejected -- and Washington's outreach to Moscow *exploded this week in a series of barbs.*

*Zelensky has said Trump has succumbed to Russian _"disinformation"_,* while the US leader accused his counterpart of starting the war and *branded him a _"dictator without elections"._*

*US national security advisor Mike Waltz said Thursday* that _"some of the rhetoric coming out of Kyiv, frankly, and *insults to President Trump were unacceptable."*_

*The US is a vital financial and military supporter of Ukraine,* but Trump has *rattled Kyiv and its European backers by opening talks with Moscow* they fear could end the war on terms that reward Russian President Vladimir Putin.

People change

Your willingness to change is what makes the change happen

Complaining over things incessantly doesn't make it change. What makes a difference is when we choose to act.

Never mourn over what you cannot change. Focus on what is fixable and work on it.
Good morning
