THE GOOD WORKS OF JOY & PEACE FOUNDATION, AND REQUEST FOR ASSISTANCE
A Widow Receiving Her Own Wrapper
Otu Obiahu AJM NEWS
There is no doubt about the fact that Nigeria is richly endowed with abundant human and material resources. In spite of these riches, Nigeria has been classified as one of the poorest countries of the world in terms of its Gross Domestic Product (GDP), per capita income, consumption standards, provision and availability of basic needs, shelter, poverty, unemployment and overall economic performance.
Beyond Nigeria, the concern for poverty is also expressed at the global level. The International Monetary Fund (IMF), and Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), particularly reported that about 1.2 billion people were in extreme consumption poverty globally. More than two thirds of them were in Asia and about one quarter in Sub Saharan Africa, where Nigeria belongs.
Poverty can be defined as a state where an individual is not able to cater adequately for his or her basic needs of food, clothing and shelter; being unable to meet social and economic obligations, due to lack of gainful employment, skills for self-reliance, assets and self-esteem and having limited access to social and economic infrastructure such as education, health, portable water, sanitation, etc.
Though poverty cannot be totally eradicated globally, however, to lower the rate and prevalence of poverty around the the world, particularly in Nigeria, some concerned individuals and groups have come up to render assistance in their own little way to humanity through the channel of NGOs: Non-governmental Organizations.
One of these Non-governmental Organizations is the JOY & PEACE FOUNDATION, located in Afikpo, precisely Ovum Imama Ozizza, Afikpo, Ebonyi State Nigeria.
Founded by Apostle Nnachi Godwin Udume in 20……, the JOY & PEACE FOUNDATION runs with the vision of Giving Value To Life.
In order to achieve this great and laudable vision, the JOY & PEACE FOUNDATION is committed to:
Introducing Jesus Christ To Mankind
Youth Employment/Empowerment
Welfare For The Needy/ Widows’ Care
Pastors’ Welfare
Discovery & Development Of Talents
Encouraging National Growth And Development, etc
Funding: As a nonprofit organization, the JOY & PEACE FOUNDATION relies on a variety of sources for funding/sponsorship, which include: membership dues; grants from local, state, and federal agencies, as well as foreign governments; and private donations from well spirited individuals and ministeries/organisations.
Every privileged person should see it as a responsibility we owe society by putting smiles on the faces of the poor and less privileged among us.
Recent Activities: The JOY & PEACE FOUNDATION recently put a smile on the faces of over 50 widows by providing them with clothing materials, and also took care of a reasonable number of Senior Citizens (elderly men) by giving them food and cash gift.
Challenge: One major challenge facing our organisation is limited funds/resources, which in turn hampers our plans of reaching out to more of these less privileged brothers and sisters of ours. In that regard, we request your financial, material support and partnership, to get our aforementioned vision and mission achieved, even as you come across this article.
Remember, every privileged person should see it as a responsibility we owe our society by putting smiles on the faces of the poor and less privileged among us .

I HAVE THE RIGHT TO CHOOSE WHO WILL SUCCEED ME AT THE SENATE, UMAHI INSISTS
Engr. Dave Umahi
Otu Obiahu AJM NEWS
The immediate past governor of Ebonyi State, Engr. Dave Umahi has maintained that he has the right to choose who will replace him at the Senate.
Umahi was a senator representing the Ebonyi South District until his resignation after being appointed minister by President Bola Tinubu.
During a courtesy call to Ebonyi State Governor Francis Nwifuru, on September 9, Umahi publicly said, “I have the right to choose who will succeed me.”
However, the Ebonyi State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has lambasted the Minister of Works, Dave Umahi, for making such inorderly statement.
The party observed it was ridiculous for the immediate past governor of the state to come back to insist he will produce his successor at the Red Chamber, having unilaterally ‘abandoned’ the seat in pursuit of his ministerial appointment, without consulting the constituents of Ebonyi South Zone.
The Chairman of the state PDP chapter, Augustine Nwazunku, said in a statement on Wednesday, that Umahi should apologise for making such a sinister utterance.

WORD ALIVE CELEBRATES 7TH YEAR OF WWPW PROGRAMME WITH WIDOWS
….I Sold My Land To Feed Poor Widows – REV. LAWRENCE EZE
Widows Called Out For Prayers
Otu Obiahu AJM NEWS
The Senior Pastor of Word Alive Bible Church (Zion City), Ozizza Afikpo North Local Government Area of Ebonyi State, Rev. Lawrence Eze has charged Christians around the globe to always be prepared for the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ, same way the bride gets herself ready to receive her groom, in a white linen apparel, pure and spotless.
Rev. Eze gave the charge during his Sunday sermon to mark the end of a 4-day annual programme (Word, Worship, Praise & Warfare- WWPW 2023), with the theme: Preparing The Bride For Christ, held at Word Alive Bible Church, Ozizza Afikpo.
The pastor further stated that God made man for the purpose of relating with him; therefore, man is expected to try his best to maintain good and quality relationship with God by accepting Jesus Christ as his Lord and Saviour, and living in accordance to God’s word.
Other highlights of the programme included prayers for the widows, and sharing of food items and cash to 53 widows drawn from the five autonomous communities of Afikpo North LGA.
Speaking to AJM NEWS, Rev. Lawrence Eze revealed that this year’s programme was so special because it’s the seventh year of the programme, which they’ve held consistently. He also noted that he takes great pleasure in feeding the widows during the programme, adding that the church was able to bless not fewer than 53 widows picked from different communities in Afikpo, who joyfully went home with 25kg bag of rice and condiments each, and some cash. He further noted that in the 53 widows who got food items and cash, only 5 are the members of the Word Alive Bible Church.
Narrating how he got the inspiration, Rev. Eze said God gave him the instruction. His words: “Some years ago, as I was eating and celebrating the festive period with my family, I was asked by God, “as you are eating and enjoying with your family, do you know that there are some homes that don’t have a cup of rice to eat?” After the deliberations with God, I was instructed to begin feeding and taking care of the poor, particularly the widows and orphans”.
Asked how he gets sponsorship for the programme, the Senior Pastor said that he gets support from a few people who share the same burden with him. He also added: “When the support fails to come, I go the extra mile by selling my property or sacrificing my children’s school fees, just to make sure that these widows and orphans are fed. “I sold my parcel of land at Amaozara, Afikpo two years ago, in order to raise money to purchase food items for these poor ones. “I feel very very happy and fulfilled whenever I share food, clothes and cash to the poor; I’ve no regret doing it”.
“God has also been showing Himself faithful in my life and family. “Three of my children have enjoyed scholarships in their school; even the last scholarship was without my knowledge. I came to know about it when I gave my daughter money to pay her school fees, but she returned home with the very money, informing me that the school told her she’s now on scholarship. When I called the school management about the matter, they told me it’s true, and pleaded with me to forgive them for not informing me on time”.
Rev. Eze went on: “We shall also have a repeat of this programme by December this year, which would include the usual sharing of food items and other materials to the widows, as well as free medical care for all. “We thank all our sponsors and also plead with others to see the need to partner with us in this gracious assignment of feeding the poor”.
The beneficiary widows thanked Rev. Eze for the kind gesture, as they also prayed for more of God’s blessings and grace upon his life and family.

ABIA STATE GOVERNOR, ALEX OTTI BANS OKADA IN UMUAHIA AND ABA
Dr. Alex Otti
Otu Obiahu AJM NEWS
The Governor of Abia State, Dr. Alex Chioma Otti, has directed an immediate ban on the operations of commercial motorcyclists, popularly known as Okada, within Umuahia and Aba metropolises.
Dr. Otti, in a statement signed by Kazie Uko, his Chief Press Secretary, issued on Sunday evening, said that effective Monday, August 14, 2023, any motorcycle seen on the streets of Umuahia and Aba townships being used for such a purpose will be impounded by the security agencies.
He directed security agencies in the two cities to arrest any individual caught violating the order for possible prosecution.
However, some critics of the state government’s ban on Okada have said that the policy would further increase unemployment, hardship and crime among the youths.
The critics also urged the Abia State government to also ensure that the ban is not restricted to only civilian okada riders but also to some policemen and other security personnel who use okada.
Meanwhile, no reason has been given by the government for the ban on okada use, though some believe it is part of the measures being applied by the state government to tackle crime and insecurity in the two major cities of the state.
MAN DIVORCES WIFE FOR ALLOWING MALE DOCTOR ATTEND TO HER DURING CHILD DELIVERY
A man in Katsina State has reportedly divorced his 14-year old house wife for allowing a male medical practioner attend to her while giving birth to his baby.
The teenage mother, who was divorced by the husband, was said to have had a complicated child birth, resulting to being rushed to the hospital where there was no female medical practioner on ground to attend to her. As a result, the only male medical practioner available attended to her during labour, a development that led to the crash of her marriage.
Although the lady was said to have given birth successfully, her husband’s joy was cut short when he rushed to the hospital to realize that the medical practitioner that attended to the wife during labour was a male. Peeved by the development, he subsequently divorced the wife.
SPECIAL LETTER TO INEC CHAIRMAN, DIRECTOR GENERAL DSS, CHIEF JUSTICE OF NIGERIA AND PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION PETITION TRIBUNAL ON THE DANGERS OF SUBVERTING JUSTICE AGAINST OBI-DATTI.
Greetings honorable men and women, The INEC Chairman, Director General DSS, Chief Justice of Nigeria and Presidential Election Petition Tribunal
Election is part of the incidents of democracy; so delicate an issue and a sensitive process in the very socio-political fabrics of any society, such for examples like Nigeria, and that people and/or institutions saddled with the special tasks and/or responsibilities to make guidelines, handle, organise, conduct and/or make declarations of election results are part of the democratic processes for the common good of any nation and, particularly, for a peaceful coexistence and continuing progression of any country or nation towards her socio-political liberation and/or sustainable developments and to achieve this, things have to be done with spirited efforts and genuine altruism in line with international benchmarks and/or best practices.
In Nigeria, municipally, the acronym INEC which translates into Independent National Electoral Commission, having Prof. Mahmood Yakubu as its current chair or alter ego, is supposedly a Commission in the Nigerian democratic processes in whose shoulders electoral matters are handled without fear, favour, psycho-sentimental drama and/or any adjectival considerations in terms of political party affiliations, ethnicity, religion, econo-political powers or background, etc.
However, in the presidential election held in Nigeria on the 25th day of February, 2023, Nigerians were aware and are still aware, in bewildering disappointments to their devastating consternation, that INEC, as led by Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, surreptitiously bankrolled with drug money, intentionally scuttled the entire electional processes and in a conspiratorial avarice shutdown INEC server to orchestrate the sordid manipulations of the election results or figures to delivering power to Alhaji Ahmed Bola Tinubu as the president elect who was so declared without merit.
The above is a deliberate electoral broad daylight robbery and fraud which would never be allowed, by all means, to stand in Nigeria by the Nigerians, especially the teeming population of the long disappointed youths, whose mandate is mischievously stolen.
Therefore, it is the resolve of the Nigerian people, particularly the youths, that Prof. Mahmood Yakubu should strive at this last opportunity offered by the hearing at the tribunal by becoming penitent and ensure that the real and correct facts of the said doctored presidential election, against the salvaging possibility of new Nigeria as conceived by Obi-Datti and supported by the new generation Nigerians, are presented before our Justices at the tribunal by way of credible pieces of electoral evidence to douse and avert the looming, bloody political earthquakes of the calamitous anger of over 50 million Igbo youths and more millions of Nigerian youths in Nigeria and all over the other countries in the world.
This is a sound of a stern, morbid warning and the Nigerian Government, through DSS, Army, police and any other forms of security designations, must be aware that no barrels of guns, no weaponry or any form of arsenal, spiritual or temporal, can further intimidate the Nigerians, especially the angered youths, to stand up in reclaiming the Nigeria of their collective dream and build same to a new, egalitarian Nigeria for equal benefits for us all and our children.
The Nigerian youths have waited for over 45 years in abject pains of political humiliations, penury, betrayal, economic treachery, lies, political balkanisation and divide-and-rule methodology or gimmicks yet things keep getting worst on each day.
We dare say that no threat of arrest or detention, not even any form of pogrom, can stop us from liberating Nigeria from the hands of political demagogues, profiteers and accessories like Prof. Mahmood Yakubu.
We, therefore, warn Inspector General of police, Usman Alkali Baba, to desist from any iota of despotic behaviour threatening any Nigerian youth in his overbearing quest to install an illegitimate president-elect and/or regime on the 29th day of May, 2023.
Obviously the life as well as the future of every Nigeria Youth, especially the Igbos, is already under threats since 45 years now as a result of corrupt leadership steepped in the foundations of selfishness and personal aggrandisement of few political jobbers of coyotes and vultures who loot and milk Nigeria dry with repugnant impunity.
There are more deadly pro-new Nigerian security experts with portfolios in military cum security espionages, etc, or fiercely, aggressive youths in DSS, Army, Police and in other outfits who are also crying, boiling as well as yearning for a new, better Nigeria. Time has gone when the youths in the DSS, Army, Police etc are used to fight fellow civilian youths.
Both DSS, Army, Police, etc, engaged in the security businesses and whose part of responsibilities is to advise the government against any inflammable situation and/or security issue that may plunge Nigeria into anarchy, chaos or security unrest, must accordingly be of immense help to the Federal government in this perilous time in Nigeria to advise the judiciary that the pervasion of and/or any travesty of justice against the ongoing legal wars to recovering the common mandate held of the Nigerian people by Obi-Datti but stolen by some serial political syndicate as made possible by Prof. Mahmood Yakubu would lead to a perpetual disintegration and virulent chaos if not taken care of wisely with the requisite justice it deserves.
Besides, it is our warning, in furtherance, in the interests of Nigeria that Nigerian government and it’s agents must beef up security around Obi-Datti towards a watertight protection of their lives, that of their families as well as their property for if anything uncanny happens to them, Somalia would be far better than Nigeria, comparatively. Moreso, relatedly, the plans to hurt Obi-Datti must be jettisoned unless Nigeria is ready to test or face us.
Our eyes are on the judiciary as we ask the noble honorable judiciary, particularly our noble Lords: Hon. Justice Haruna Tsammani, Hon. Justice Stephen Adah, Hon. Justice Monsurat Bolaji-Yusuf, Hon. Justice Moses Ugo and Hon. Justice Abba Mohammed who now sit in adjudication over the doctored and bought February, 25th presidential election: “who, among Obi, Atiku and Tinubu, is a common man?” The youths are aware that the judiciary is the hope of a common man in Nigeria!
My honorable and noble Lord, dear Hon. Justice Haruna Tsammani and your team, Nigeria is in fragile situation in your hands either to be buried or be saved but, at the same time, the teaming Nigeria youths, angered already to their bone marrows, are ready to assist you to bury Nigeria if a devilish politics is held to be prescriptive against the law and/or the true justice the election petitions deserve!
Whether the judiciary likes it or not, time has gone when brown envelopes and other pecuniary cum political promises of benedictions and benefits sneaked into the heads of our apex Justices behind light to rule their judgements!
Therefore, our Justices, who are the chosen members of the current presidential election tribunal, must know that if they become some sorts of slay queens in the temple of justice in a buga dance, courtesy of any undue influence by Alhaji Ahmed Bola Tinubu and his drug cartels, in the instant matter, and wring their hands to slay the justice of the whole case, whether advertently or inadvertently, they would send NIGERIA to a journey of no return and they all, inclusive of their families, must be ready to face the quick and instant consequences of their injustice.
Therefore, we urge the State Security Service, through her Director General, Mr. Yusuf Magaji Bichi, not to abdicate or shirk in his primary responsibility to the government as hereinabove stated for the avoidance of burying Nigeria alife because, this time, it’s either funeral or revival.
The most crucial time in the history of Nigeria requiring the DSS to stand up to their saud primary responsibility of advising the government aright, bearing in mind that forcing or foisting Alhaji Ahmed Bola Tinubu on Nigerians is forcing Nigeria into anarchy and total disintegration, is NOW!
To finality, on important note, we warn Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN ) Hon. Justice Olukayode Ariwoola not to give in to the trap by participate in any illegality of swearing Alhaji Ahmed Bola Tinubu in as the President and Commander-in-chief of the Federal Republic of Nigeria or else, he shall be ready to sink Nigeria that has already hit by a tornado.
Remain Blessed in the project of taking back Nigeria from the hands of Drug Lords.
Signed Comrade Igboayaka O Igboayaka National President Ohanaeze Youth Council OYC Comrade Ifeanyi Nweke National Secretary General
