HE DIED IN ACTIVE SERVICE, I HOPE THE GOVERNMENT WILL DO THE NEEDFUL

This is Mr. Michael Oyedokun. He was a dedicated teacher at Community High School in Ahoro-Esinele, Oyo State - choosing a noble profession where men are increasingly few.

He left his home and family for work as a healthy man, completely unaware that it would be the very last time he would ever see his loved ones.

When will our leaders say enough is enough? At what point do they get angry enough to finally end these senseless tragedies?

When?
May his gentle soul continue to rest amen!

Remembering that lovely actor Dino Shafeek, who was born on this day in 1930.
Admired by SitCom innovators David Croft and Vince Powell, Dino brings authentic Indian charm and kindness to his best-loved series It Ainโ€™t Half Hot Mum, and Mind Your Language.
Beautiful bewilderment, and moments of true poignancy. He is much missed.
RIP

THE U.S DELEGATION THROWS AWAY ALL CHINESE-ISSUED ITEMS BEFORE LEAVING!

Before boarding โ€œAir Force Oneโ€ in CHINA, members of the American delegation, including President TRUMP, reportedly dumped everything they had received during the visit into a trash bin at the foot of the stairs.

This included accreditations, disposable phones, badges, and other items given by CHINESE officials.

Due to extreme cybersecurity concerns, the entire U.S delegation used only โ€œburnerโ€ phones. Their personal devices were stored on the plane in Faraday bags that block all signals.

This was due to concerns of CHINESE spying.

HISTORY

Sunday Times Cover Reports Assassination of Prime Minister Tafawa Balewa (1966)

This image shows the front page of the Sunday Times newspaper dated 23 January 1966, reporting on the assassination of Nigeriaโ€™s first Prime Minister, Abubakar Tafawa Balewa.
The publication emerged during one of the most turbulent moments in Nigerian history following the countryโ€™s first military coup, which took place on 15 January 1966.

The January 1966 Coup

The coup was carried out by a group of young military officers led by Major Kaduna Nzeogwu and other conspirators. The uprising resulted in the deaths of several prominent political and military leaders, including:

Prime Minister Tafawa Balewa,

Premier of the Northern Region Ahmadu Bello,

Premier of the Western Region Samuel Ladoke Akintola,

and senior military officers.

The coup marked the collapse of Nigeriaโ€™s parliamentary democratic system and the effective end of the First Republic.

Discovery of Tafawa Balewaโ€™s Body

According to historical reports published after the coup, Tafawa Balewaโ€™s body was discovered beside a roadside near Lagos days after he had been abducted by coup plotters.
The body of Festus Okotie-Eboh, Nigeriaโ€™s Minister of Finance, was also reportedly found nearby. Okotie-Eboh had been one of the most influential political figures in the First Republic.
The newspaper cover reflects the shock and uncertainty that gripped the country during that period.

Historical Significance

The January 1966 coup fundamentally changed Nigeriaโ€™s political trajectory. It ushered in military rule, intensified ethnic and regional tensions, and eventually contributed to events leading to the Nigerian Civil War (1967โ€“1970).
Tafawa Balewa remains an important figure in Nigerian history as:

the countryโ€™s first and only Prime Minister,

a leading nationalist,

and one of the architects of Nigeriaโ€™s independence movement.
