OUR LAND MUST BE HEALED: PRESS RELEASE ON THE UGEP CRISIS OF JUNE 29, 2017 Yesterday, June 29, 2017 I lost my nephew , Jude Iroh Junior in the cult related war currently ravaging Ugep, my ancestral home. As painful as the loss of this relative is, many of us saw it coming. I didn't know I will be a direct victim. It would have been any of us. For years, I have been raising alarms on the stockpiling of arms by politicians and the arming of jobless youths by them for elections. This hydra-headed demon they created is what has also snowballed into the present crisis. As a community, we know the perpetrators of these crimes. They are our siblings and friends. However, we continue to shield them. Today I am a victim. Tomorrow it will be you. In my family's case, we have summoned my nephew who was killed yesterday to a family meeting some weeks earlier and directed him to quit when we learnt he is a member of a blood thirstily and murderous cult group known as Viking  . He acknowledg...

Former Fifa President Sepp Blatter Former Fifa president Sepp Blatter, who was disgraced out of office amid a corruption scandal in 2015, has admitted he should have stepped down earlier. The 81-year-old was banned over ethics breaches, bringing an end to his 17-year reign, following a suspected two million Swiss franc ($2 million, 1.8 million euro) payment to ex-Uefa president Michel Platini. "I should have stopped down myself earlier," Blatter said in an interview published by Swiss newspaper SonntagsBlick. Blatter, who was re-elected for a fifth term in May 2015 before promptly announcing his plans to resign, recalled the editor-in-chief of a Swiss magazine warning him the role of Fifa president had an expiration date. "At your place the date is 2014', he told me, and I said to him that sometimes it's written that the product can be consumed beyond this date if it's stored in a cool place," he said. Blatter was also asked about a report in German news...
