Celebrating 16 Days Of Activism Against Gender-based Violence -By Mary Beth Leonard
November 25 marked the beginning of the 16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence, which ends on International Human Rights Day, December 10. As the U.S. Ambassador to the Federal Republic of Nigeria, a leader, and a woman, gender equality and women’s empowerment are causes that are near and dear to me. They are also priorities for the U.S. government at home and around the world.
16 Days Of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence
The voice of the unpatriotic is unmistakable in the respect that even after 108 years of our marriage, and 62 years of our independence, there is scarcely any policy, technology, or structure that we are ripe for as a nation. And it does not matter if this new thing, whatever it is, happens to be the best for us as a nation. It does not matter if technical innovation is able to leapfrog us, such that we can take our place in the League of Nations.

For Americans, celebrating Independence Day usually means reminiscing about our past and reflecting on what unites us – our principles, our history, and our shared humanity.

What Happened To Akufo-Addo?, By Azu Ishiekwene
Akufo-Addo has another four years to repair the damage. If he struggled in the last four years when he had the parliamentary majority to make bold and lasting changes, you guess is as good as mine what his fate would be with a hung parliament… But that’s the way it is: he has his job cut out for him. If we could cast a vote in the December 8 presidential election in Ghana, President Nana Akufo-Addo, would have won re-election by miles. Nigerians love him to bits. He talks a good game.

The Kingdom of the Pastor, By Femi Aribisala
“Nobody,” he declared, “is going to take this church away from me.” As a young believer at a Lagos church, I was appalled at the cutthroat politics of the church, all revolving around the pastor.

I told him I was thinking of resigning from my job because my boss had become a big problem.
