PRESS STATEMENT- GOVERNOR OTU HAS NOT AWARDED ANY N5B RENOVATION CONTRACT

*OFFICE OF THE COMMISSIONER,* *MINISTRY OF INFORMATION* *HEADQUARTERS, CALABAR.* The attention of the Cross River State Government has been drawn to the unfounded news in some sections of the social media to the effect that the State Governor, His Excellency, Senator Prince Bassey Edet Otu has awarded contract for the renovation of the Governor's Office Complex for N5 billion. The report is untrue, mischievous and has no iota of professionalism to it. It is rather calculated to confuse and misin

Not a love story

In a world where differences bloom, Among the rest, you brightly loom. Adored by many, cherished and true, Qualities rare, a radiant view. My heart whispers, "I like you so," Feelings pure, a gentle flow. Content with what we share today, Certainty blooms, won't fade away. I'll treasure these feelings, ever so dear, Hoping fate binds us, drawing near. In the chapters unwritten, destiny's decree, Let's continue our tale, not a love story, but free. By Ms. Victoria Ivy Lastimado

Law is blind but Judge should not be blind

In a society where the judges become blind along with the law, there is darkness in the society. The oppressor rules and the oppressed class is left behind in the mill of oppression. Therefore, the judge should not be blind.

Not super hero

In capes of ordinary guise, No super strength, nor soaring skies. Just an everyday heart that beats, Facing life's challenges on its feet. No powers grand, no cape that flows, Yet within, a strength that glows. I'm not a hero of comic lore, But in life's battles, I'll explore. With flaws and fears that I embrace, I'll stand my ground, find my place. No superhuman feats to show, Just determination that continues to grow.

Venus: Earth's Not-So-Twin Planet

Venus: Earth's Not-So-Twin Planet Venus, our closest planetary neighbor, has often been called Earth's twin due to its similar size and mass. But beneath the thick veil of clouds that shroud the planet lies a world far stranger and more hostile than anything found on Earth. Venus is the hottest planet in our solar system, with surface temperatures hot enough to melt lead. This scorching heat is caused by a runaway greenhouse effect. The atmosphere of Venus is crushing, 96% carbon dioxide, trappi

Spread Good, Not Evil: Cultivating Positive Influence

I n a world often saturated with negativity, the mantra "Spread Good, Not Evil" resonates deeply. This blog post serves as your guide to fostering a ripple effect of positivity within your sphere of influence. Understanding the "Evil" We Need to Counteract Before discussing "good," it's crucial to identify the "evil" we aim to combat. This evil isn't always about grand, malevolent acts; it manifests in everyday negativity: gossip, pessimism, bullying, bias, and isolation. These seemingly small a

Not all that glitters is gold

Once upon a time in a small village nestled between lush green fields, there lived a young farmer named Jack. Jack was known for his hard work and dedication to his crops. One day, while tending to his fields, Jack stumbled upon a small, sparkling object buried in the dirt. It was a golden coin, shining in the sunlight. Excitement filled Jack's heart as he held the coin in his hands. News of Jack's discovery spread quickly throughout the village, and soon, everyone wanted to know where he had fo

YOUR COLLEAGUES ARE NOT YOUR FRIENDS

HR managers tell us that their company has a friendly environment, and that teamwork and honesty are appreciated. So you get the impression that everyone is your best friend. Don't believe it. We all tend to compete with each other, and it would be just naive to pretend otherwise. There's nothing wrong with that. Just don't treat your coworkers like friends, don't expect too much from them. People actually work to get money for their job. It would be a mistake to think that they can sacrifice their salary for the sake of friendship. Base your relationship on a different model. Be friendly, have fun with your colleagues, but above all remain professional.

NOT KARMA, BUT I

I'm sorry if I sometimes seem touchy, I'm just really protective of my child. You see, I had her early and since then it's just been the two of us. I was 15 when I got pregnant. The usual teenage pregnancy story, girl meets boy, boy dazzles girl, next thing I knew, I was 15 and pregnant. I lived with my mother who also had me early. You'd think she'd protect me, tell me everything was going to be alright. Wrong! She threw me out of the house. I would have died. I had no skills to speak of, no mo

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth; Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim, Because it was grassy and wanted wear; Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same, And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way lea
