The Late Iranian Fallen Hero Gen. Suleimani, A Green Snake Under The Green Grass, Read The Five Reasons Why U.S. Trump Assassinates Him
The Late Iranian Fallen Hero Gen. Suleimani, A Green Snake Under The Green Grass, Read The Five Reasons Why U.S. Trump Assassinates Him
Francis Tayor
Washington____ 12.30am Friday morning, Donald Trump sat amongst his team of advisers, top Military Generals, VP Mike Pence and National Security advisor, Mark Esper..
He had a choice - choose between ordering an airstrike that could change the dynamics of military operations in the Middle East forever or withhold his 'Republican party' instincts by waiting for a more provocative action by Iran before launching attacks.
He chose the former! And sent a guided US Drone strike to shoot down Soleimani's convoy just after his plane had landed in Baghdad's airport.
I mean, why wouldn't he? On Monday Iranian militants guised as protesters following directions from Qasem Soleimani, the commander of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) Quds Force unit, stormed the US Embassy in Baghdad, and destroyed sections of the embassy, burning down the reception area.
Attacking a country's embassy is considered an act of war in international law, so to attack the US Embassy as retaliation for US airstrikes that killed 25 Iran backed Kataib Hezbollah terrorists, when the same Kataib Hezbollah was allegedly responsible for last week's killing of an American contractor on an Iraqi military base - was very tempting for a Trump that ran his political campaign on an 'America First' mantra.
The last three Republican presidents have initiated wars or ordered military invasions, so Trump even though he has claimed he wants no wars and has been on a charm offensive with North Korea's leader will not hesitate to release America's military might if it is severely tested. And there is a conspiracy theory that says every 20 years America engages in a war just to show off to the world that they are still the dominant world military power.. In the face of recent events, and Republican party praise over Trump's killing of Soleimani, that conspiracy theory isn't far off.
Trump ordered a drone strike to kill Soleimani, meaning there could be no casualties and it can be monitored from the situation room in the White House.
It didn't just kill Soleimani but also killed Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, the deputy head of the Iran-backed and funded Iraqi Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF).
Here are five things you probably didn't know about Soleimani and why his killing makes a War between the US and Iran a 'when' rather than 'if' situation.
1.Soleimani was described by Middle East Military Generals as "the single most powerful operative in the Middle East today" as he was the principal military strategist and tactician in Iran's effort to combat and destroy Western influence as he helped promote the expansion of Shiite and Iranian influence throughout the Middle East.
2. Soleimani joined the military at a very young age, but quickly rose through the ranks because of his bravery during the Iraq-Iran war.
3. Soleimani was a cult like figure in Iran and was greatly feared. He led Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) Quds Force unit, and was responsible for all Iranian militia operations outside Iran . Be it Lebanon, Syria, Iraq , Afghanistan. Every Iranian military proxy operation operated through him.
4. Under Soleimani, the IRGC command "coordinated attacks, trained militias, and set up an elaborate system to monitor rebel communications outside Iran. He played a crucial role in the Syria war since 2012 and was a staunch ally of Syria's president Bashar Al Assad.
5. Soleimani was from Kerman. His father was a farmer who died in 2017 while his mother, Fatemeh, died in 2013. Soleimani was a fitness trainer and martial artist in his youth. He had four children: two sons and two daughters.
Suleimani became the chief architect of the expansion of Iran’s regional influence, which started after the fall of Saddam in 2003. It enabled Iran to establish the influence in Iraq, a dominance that gradually extended to Syria, Gaza, Lebanon and Yemen, always in opposition to the US and its allies.
This history of relentless confrontation with Washington is Suleimani’s legacy, and will dictate how and when Iran responds to his Friday assassination.
Iranian leaders believe if Soleimani can be attacked that means any of them can be attacked. Imagine the head of the CIA or Secretary of State being assassinated when outside the US, that's how grave Iran's Supreme leader Ayatollah Khameni views the attack.
Iran will probably attack a US military base in Iraq, Afghanistan or even go as far as attacking Saudi Arabia or Israel as a sign to the Iranian people that Iran isn't a 'weak' nation.
Using it's proxy army, Hezbollah, in Lebanon, Iran could launch attacks against US owned oil mines, attack military installations or stop oil shipping lanes at the Hormuz Strait.
Iran's leadership has promised a severe response, so it's a case of 'when' rather than 'if' and this is how a World War III could develop.
Iran shoots down a US oil tanker or shoots a US military base in Iraq, Afghanistan or Israel.
The US retaliates by destroying a Hezbollah or Iranian army base while moving its warships close to Iran's borders. Iran uses cyber attacks against Israel or Saudi Arabia and they respond in kind knowing they have the backing of the US.
The US and Iran continues it's back and forth, Iran's allies Russia and China support Iran with Iranian oil in their minds, while NATO, EU and Israel stands behind the US, with Iraq, Israel and the middle east turning to a battle ground.. All hell is let loose. Boom!!! WORLD WAR III. Let's pray it never gets to that.

First In History, A Team Of Nigerian Doctors Successfully Separates Twins Conjoined At The Chest And Abdomen in Abuja National Hospital
First In History, A Team Of Nigerian Doctors Successfully Separates Twins Conjoined At The Chest And Abdomen in Abuja National Hospital
Francis Tayor
Abuja____ A team of 78 medical personnel have successfully separated a conjoined twins after several surgeries in Abuja, National Hospital has announced.
The doctors spent about 13 hours performing the last complex surgery to separate Goodness and Mercy Martins at the National Hospital Abuja.
The surgery involved 78 doctors working in two groups. Goodness and Mercy Martins were born on 13th of August 2018 at the Federal Medical Centre, Keffi Nasarawa state, through a caesarean session. Their unemployed mother had no idea she was expecting twins and she was even more shocked when they came out joined at the chest and abdomen.
The Chief Medical Director of the Hospital, Dr Jaf Mommoh, while addressing newsmen in Abuja, said the twins were conjoined at the chest and abdomen.
“They have therefore been on admission at the hospital for more than 16 months, for care and several diagnostic procedures for a detailed diagnosis in preparation for the surgery.
“The hospital management decided to fund the care and the entire processes leading to the major surgical procedure for the separation as our corporate social responsibility.
“We therefore, ensured that lack of funds did not stop these beautiful girls from having the opportunity to enjoy their lives independently,’’ he said.
Mommoh, attributed the success of the operation to the hospital’s medical team, adequate funds, as well as the belief and trust the parents of the twins had in the hospital.
He then called on state governments to invest more in healthcare.
“So the states need to do more in other to build specialist hospitals or support the existing ones and employ more staff so that we will not be having brain drain.
“They should also provide places for housemanship in their general hospitals so that we will not be having young doctors or health workers roaming the streets for years.
While speaking to the BBC, the lead surgeon, Emmanuel Ameh, said the operation to separate Goodness and Mercy Martins at the chest and abdomen took place in November and the two sisters were now well enough to go home.
He said the operation, which cost about $55,000, was complicated. But the medics at National Hospital Abuja did not charge for their work because the twins’ parents – Michael Edeh and Maria Onya Martins – could not afford the medical bills. They rely on Mr Martins’ salary as a painter to get by.
Speaking at the formal presentation of the separated twins on Tuesday, January 7 in Abuja, ahead of their discharge from National Hospital on Wednesday, the Minister of Health, Dr Osagie Ehanire, attributed the successful outcome of the surgery to the teamwork and administrative support the experts at the hospital received.
He said: “These beautiful girls of Benue State origin and their proud parents, are beneficiaries of a healthcare system, when it functions as it supposed to.
“The case management team has demonstrated that our health system, even with modest resources, can rise up to the highest challenges and offer quality care, to find its position among renowned international hospitals.”
The girls were brought to the National Hospital in Abuja a day after their birth. Since then, they have undergone four operations by a team of experts including paediatricians, neurologists, anesthesiologists, plastic surgeons, radiologists and others who spent 16 months treating them until they were well enough for the surgery to separate them.
Consultant pediatric surgeon, Professor Emmanuel Ameh, who led the team of experts, explained that the case Goodness and Mercy Martins was unusual because they were joined at two of the most delicate organs of the body.
He presented a short animation video which explained the steps taken to separate the sisters.
“This is an extremely rare condition. The biggest challenge we faced had to do with their separation at the chest region. This is really the first time that twins joined in the chest and the abdomen are separated throughout the entire country. All the other separated twins are joined only in one organ,” Ameh said.
The National Hospital Abuja has separated about 11 conjoined twins over the last 20 years, but in those cases all the twins had been joined at the abdomen.
The hospital’s medical director, Jaff Momoh, said this case stood out as it was the first time an operation had involved the lower chest wall, liver and diaphragm. Mr. Martins, a painter from Oturkpo, said he was so happy to see his daughters alive and well. He added that the family was looking forward to returning home.
He said: “I am so happy to see Goodness wrapped separately. I initially couldn’t believe it. My gratitude goes to God and the medical team. May this success continue, he stated.”
His wife said words were not enough to thank the team of doctors and the kindness of the hospital staff. The minister of health has visited the hospital to praise the efforts of the medics and meet the family. Also, the women’s affairs minister has promised to give Mrs Martin a job to help the family.

Okowa's Supreme Court Victory Is An Affirmation Of Deltans Mandate At the Poll, Says Okowa SSA, Comrade Ezekiel Daniel
..... Salutes Deltans For Their Support And Prayers For His Excellency's Victory
Francis Tayor
The victory of His Excellency senator Ifeanyi Okowa is a well deserved one. It was widely anticipated. I was optimistic that my boss will win at the supreme Court, I hail my boss. Thank God that all efforts to steal Deltans mandate has been finally put to rest.
It was bad advice that pushed great Ogboru to this unpalatable end. I earlier advised that he should not go to supreme court and take the appeal verdict in a good faith but he refused to listen. No wonder the appeal judge called him a gold digger ,trying to reap where he did not sow.
I can see the all-round jubilation on the faces of Deltans which is a sign that Deltans are pleased with Okowa's victoy at the supreme Court. We are happy that attempts to rob Deltans have been resisted.
Okowa's victory is good for all Deltans. I dedicate it to God Almighty and Deltans. Besides, Ogboru must learn to accept defeat. He should apologize to Deltans for the distraction and waste of the precious time of His Execellency Senator (Dr) Ifeanyi Okowa.
It was appalling that Ogboru could not substantiate his claim of over voting in an election that His Excellency senator Ifeanyi Okowa won with landslide. I thank all Deltans for reposing confidence on our distinguished governor, Dr Ifeanyi Okowa. I thank you for your prayers and support at the last year's gubernatorial election. We are owning you more appreciation and it may come in different forms either through development, employment, empowerment and appointments. Thank you and God bless.

Ayakoromo Bridge: Gov. Okowa Has Already Made Provision In The 2020 Budget For The Completion Of The Project, Appeals To IPDI, Ayakoromo Youths For Calm
Francis Tayor
Asaba____ The Delta State Government has denied reports that the Ayakoromo bridge project in Burutu Council Area of the state has been abandoned.
The State Commissioner for Information, Mr. Charles Aniagwu, in a statement on Tuesday in Asaba, said the State Government was desirous of completing the project, assuring that work on the bridge will commence in the early part of the year.
The Ijaw Peoples Development Initiative (IPDI) in conjunction with Ayakoromo youths had threatened showdown with the state government over the project.
Aniagwu however, urged IPDI and Ayakoromo youths to sheathe their swords and shun their planned protest as government had already made provisions for the completion of the bridge in the 2020 budget.
“As a Government we are committed to the construction of the Ayakoromo Bridge to link communities in Ughelli South and Burutu Local Government Areas.
“The Okowa administration is concerned about the slow pace of work on the bridge and had already taken steps to fast track its completion by making enough provisions for the project in the 2020 budget.
“The State Government remains committed to the development of riverine communities in Ijawland as well as other parts of the state and will stop at nothing until we give a new lease of life to rural and coastal communities in Delta State.
“I therefore appeal to IPDI and Ayakoromo youths to tow the path of peace even as Government is doing everything possible to make life more meaningful for them.” Aniagwu stated.

Delta 2023: Stay Clear For Ijaw, Isoko And Ndokwa Nation To Battle For Governorship, You Have Produced Governor, Ijaw Leader Dr. Angozi Tells Urhobo Nation
Oyinbi Onduku
Warri____ A head of 2023 guber race, a foremost Delta ljaw politician who doubles as a former Council Chairman, as well as Commissioner for Agriculture in Delta State, Dr. Braduce Amakazi Angozi has challenged Urhobo Nation to stop dancing 'Ekwe' and stay clear for ljaw, lsoko and Ndokwa ethnic groups to produce the next governor of Delta state, noting that Urhobo has produced governor for eight years in the state.
Dr. Angozi make the statement in Warri yesterday 6th January, 2020 while playing host to a team of Delta Ijaw Media Publishers, stated categorically that, there was no date in the past when the various ethnic groups in Delta State come to an agreement in zoning the governorship seat according to senatorial basis. Those Urhobos from Delta Central clamoring for 2023 as their birth right to produce the next governor of Delta state are deceiving themselves and not we the ljaws.
The ljaw political pope stressed further that, how can Urhobo Nation even think of producing governor again at a state where we have over five ethnic groups ? The ljaw, lsoko and Kwale ethnic groups have not produced governor in the state, and by right they are supposed to agitate for 2023 and not the Urhobo man. For the sake of equity, fairness and justice, l urged my Urhobo brothers to wait and allow the governorship seat go round the above mentioned three ethnic groups to taste the feel of power before Urhobo again.
Giving the breakdown of political analysis from 1999 to date in the state, Dr. Braduce stated that; " Urhobo Nation had produced the first Executive Governor of Delta State, in the person of Chief. James Ibori, who was my boss while l was a council chairman during his first tenure. Chief. Ibori served an uninterrupted two terms of eight years and handover to ltsekiri Nation, in the person of Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan. Dr. Uduaghan also enjoyed two terms of eight years without a bit of mosquito, and handover to Okowa. Presently, the Anioma Nation under Sen. Dr. Ifeanyi Arthur Okowa is doing justice to his eight years of two terms in office. He has served five years, remaining three years to complete his tenure and go. The next in line is the ljaws to produce their governor, and thereafter the lsoko and Kwale ethnic nationality to produce their own before the Urhobo Nation can come again. It is very funny and ridiculous for the Urhobo man to clamor for governor in 2023 when they know that the governorship seat has not go round the other ethnic groups that made up Delta State. I therefore, advise my Urhobo neighbours to mellow down and work in hand with the ljaws to produce the next governor of Delta State comes 2023, Dr. Angozi asserted."
Meanwhile, Dr. Angozi thank and appreciated the Delta Ijaw Media Publishers for the good works they are doing with their various media organizations in promoting and protecting the interest of Ijaw Nation. He said it was the Westerners, especially the Yoruba's that started making use of the media in Nigeria to promote and project their interest in order to attract development to their region. But today, the ljaws are toeing the same line, hence l am very happy to identify with you in order to encourage you for your good works. Keep it up and l bet you, the sky is your stepping stone, he stated.
However, among those ljaw media organizations present at the meeting includes; Niger Delta Mirror, Daily Watch, Focal Points, The Liberator, Gbaramatu Voice, Egbema Voice, ljaw Voice, Kpooka Reporters and Coastal Times respectively.

2020: Rt Hon. Enekorogha Preaches Peace, Unity At New Year, Charges Delta Ijaw Politicians To Shun Divisive Politics
Francis Tayor
Warri___ A Former Speaker of the Delta State House of Assembly, Rt Hon. (Engr.) Franc Enekorogha has stressed the need for greater unity in Ijaw nation.
He said division and factionalism has eaten deep into her polity, particularly among the Ijaw ethnic nationality in Delta State and called on the people to embrace peace, oneness and unity of purpose.
Speaking during an event in his Warri Resident, to usher in the new year, Rt Hon Enekorogha, enjoined all to sheath sword of difference, division and factionalism and harmonize for a common front.
The former Lawmaker who was the immediate past Director General, Delta State Direct Labour Agency, noted that, evil persist when those that should speak against it are mute, saying “the people can not prevent the birds of sorrow from flying over their head but can prevent them from building a nest in their hair”.
"When two elephants fights, the earth suffers. Such is the fate of the Ijaws due to division. This is not a time for blames on who is right or wrong, or to who is to render apology, but a time where each of us needs to make frantic efforts to walk on the part of unity, peace and togetherness to achieve the desires we yearn for", He said.
Continuing "In the common court of equity and justice, no Ijaw man is free. All is guilty. We have at one point or the other offended ourselves. It is true, a house divided against itself can not stand. Unity is the remedy. It is the tent and foundation to which a people, a family and a society stay strong" Enekorogha stressed.
The Former Speaker urged Ijaws of Delta State to borrow a leaf from the bond which existed between the tongue and the tooth, stressing “of all the confrontations that goes on, the tongue and the tooth, still unites against their common enemies amidst what is experienced. It is disheartening and quite appalling to see a family and a people that ought to be together fighting one another”.
"We must bridge the gap by letting the past behind us, take to the path of truth which is unity and put on the collective armour for what we owe for posterity. Those that sin with us will eventually sin against us. So the remedy is to turn them down for reconciliation as there lies the power, strength of courage and bond of unity" Enekorogha admonished.
He said division has stayed among the people for too long, stressing that vengeance has placed the people at same level with the enemies, and appealed to all to wake up to realities.
“Forgiveness puts us above. Let's forgive one another to move on. Rebuilding becomes vital when timely repairs is neglected. And now is such time for repairs”, Enekorogha added.
The ceremony was attended by Senator James Manager, the Chairman, PDP, Delta South, Chief Dr. Julius Takeme, Hon Asupa Forteta, retired Wing Commander, Peter Biakpara, Hon. Collins Eselemo, Hon. James Nieketein, Barr Oweilaemi Pereotubo, the Chairman, Burutu local government council, Hon Godknows Angele, Chief Julius Government, Mr. Kofee Amasuomo, Hon Arede Edeinmene and Amb.

Epileptic Ayakoromo Bridge Project, IPDI, Riverine Communities, Ayakoromo Youths Sets To Lockdown Govt House, Asaba In A Protest, Informs Gov. Okowa Ahead

Epileptic Ayakoromo Bridge Project, IPDI, Riverine Communities, Ayakoromo Youths Sets To Lockdown Govt House, Asaba In A Protest, Informs Gov. Okowa Ahead
It has come to our notice that Dr Ifeanyi Okowa led Government is less concern over the affairs of riverine communities. Delta State is not bankrupt or in recession that it can not continue with the Ayakoromo bridge and other laudable projects in riverine communities of Burutu Local Government area.
The bridge was first abandoned by Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa in his first tenure for two and half years after been awarded, and commencement of works at the site by his predecessor, Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan. The development was worrisome, and the concerned Ijaw youth leaders, members of IPDI ,Ijaw activists, Ayakoromo and riverine communities went into protest some times 2017 to draw the attention of governor Ifeanyi Okowa towards the abandoned bridge, and after the protest the governor released some money for the commencement of work on the abandoned bridge. Now the bridge project is abandoned again, no work is ongoing at the bridge site for over 7months, and so many equipments have been evacuated from the site by the company responsible for the project. It is sad that despite our contributions in his first and second term victories, the governor does not see the need to release fund to complete the ongoing Ayakoromo bridge project.
Burutu deserves better treatments especially in terms of appointment and development as the economy importance of Burutu Local Government area to Delta State can never be overemphasized. The riverine communities have been cheated in terms of appointment and development, despite it contributes 80% of the revenue that sustained the state. It is wrong to steal from Paul to pay Peter.
It will interest you to know that 98% of capital projects done with our oil resources are being sited in the upland which hardly produced 5% of such resources. We are running out of patience again. The attitude of the state government towards the laudable Ayakoromo bridge project is unacceptable, and we have decided to lockdown government house, Asaba by January 30th in protest, if nothing is done about the bridge project before the end of January. We are giving him till January ending but if he fails to release money for the continuation of the bridge project, by January ending we will go and lock the governor inside his office in protest to express our grievances.
We want Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa to place more priority on the Ayakoromo bridge project as regards the importance attached to it. We have emphasized in several times that the bridge when completed will connect several Uhrobo and Ijaw rural communities to the urban cities in the state, and will help to solve the transport problem among riverine communities.
