The priests, entire Catholic faithful and Christians of the Catholic Diocese of Orlu  and beyond woke up from sleep on the 11th September with the sad news of the assassination of Rev Fr Jude Egbom whose sad event happened on the evening of 10th of September 2018.

Fr Jude Egbom who visited his home town Umuwala that very day , decided to have a hair cut at Nkwerre not knowing that the heavy hands of death were already at hand.  It was gathered that Fr Egbom who was with his junior seminarian was shot severally at the chest by  unknown gun men at the hair saloon to the extent that stray bullet hit one of those running for their lives, and the seminarian heavily wounded.

Fr. Jude Egbom is a priest of the Catholic Diocese of Orlu and presently the Parish priest of St Patrick's Parish Amucha.

SIX LEADERSHIP PRINCIPLES TO LEARN FROM AN EAGLE....

1. *Eagles fly Alone and at High Altitudes.*
They don't fly with sparrows, ravens, and other small birds.

*MEANING*; Stay away from narrow-minded people, those that bring you down. Eagle flies with Eagles. Keep good company.

2. *Eagles have an Accurate Vision.* They have the ability to focus on something as far as 5km away. No matter the obstacles, the eagle will not move his focus from the prey until he grabs it.

*MEANING*; Have a vision and remain focused no matter what the obstacles and you will succeed.

3. *Eagles do not Eat Dead things. They Feed only on Fresh Prey.*

*MEANING*; Do not rely on your past success, keep looking for new frontiers to conquer. Leave your past where it belongs, in the past.

4. *Eagles Love the Storm.*
When clouds gather, the eagle gets excited, the eagle uses the storms wind to lift itself higher. Once it finds the wind of the storm, the eagle uses the raging storm to lift itself above the clouds. This gives the eagle an opportunity to glide and rest its wings. In the meantime, all the other birds hide in the branches and leaves of the tree.

*MEANING*; Face your challenges head on knowing that these will make you emerge stronger and better than you were. We can use the storms of life to rise to greater heights. Achievers are not afraid to rise to greater heights. Achievers are not afraid of challenges, rather they relish them and use them profitably.

5. *Eagles Prepare for Training;*
They remove the feathers and soft grass in the nest so that the young ones get uncomfortable in preparation for flying and eventually flies/ when it becomes unbearable to stay in the nest./

*MEANING*; Leave your Comfort Zone, there is No Growth there.

6. *When the Eagle Grows Old,*
His feathers becomes weak and cannot take him as fast and as high as it should. This makes him weak and could make him die. So he retires to a place far away in the mountains. While there, he plucks out the weak feathers on his body and breaks its beaks and claws against the rocks until he is completely bare; a very bloody and painful process. Then he stays in this hiding place until he has grown new feathers, new beaks and claws and then he comes out flying higher than before.

*MEANING*; We occasionally need to shed off old habit no matter how difficult, things that burden us or add no value to our lives should be let go of.

*NEVER GIVE UP,*
*BE AN EAGLE*

DON'T BE INSPIRED ALONE, PLEASE SHARE.

11th September, 2018





Following the approval of His Excellency the Governor of Cross River State Senator Professor Ben Ayade for the recruitment of 2000 teachers and 500 security men for primary schools across the State, the State Universal Basic Education Board is calling for on-line applications from candidates of Cross River State origin who possess NCE or B.Ed. certificates for Teachers, and SSCE for security men.

Interested applicants should log into our recruitment portal crsubeb.com, which will open for registration on Tuesday 18th September, 2018 and will close on Tuesday, 9th October, 2018.

For purposes of clarification, candidates who had earlier applied for employment and had written the aptitude test conducted by the Board in 2016 are expected to revalidate their applications by registering for the recruitment exercise. The essence of this is for the Board to eliminate those who have secured other jobs during this period and to determine those who are still interested in the recruitment.

Candidates should indicate clearly whether they are applying as teaching staff or as security men.

Prospective applicants are reminded that their certificates will be subjected to intensive scrutiny and verification exercise and those found to have tendered forged documents will be handed over to the security Agencies for investigation and prosecution.

The recruitment process will be in line with what is obtainable in the public service of Cross River State.

Only qualified candidates will be communicated to through their email addresses and contact lines to appear for screening and oral interview on a date to be determined in due course.

Applicants are advised to be wary of fraudsters who may want to exploit this avenue to extort money from very anxious and unsuspecting candidates. Please be informed that the Board is not collecting any amount of money for the recruitment exercise.  Members of the public should be guided accordingly.

Cross River State, today enjoys Federal presence because of the APC led Federal Government. However, the government of Cross River State and her legislators have been a monumental failure to the people.
Prior to the issue of automatic ticket, Ayade had made arrangements to switch camp with some federal legislators, and obviously missing in the list of those to join Ayade, were names like Gershom Bassey, Rose Oko, Jarigbe Agom, Essien Ayi, Daniel Asuquo and Etta Mbora. According to Ayade, the above listed national assembly members are power hungers and their desperation for power was not centered on the people but to massage their political ego and big life styles. And as the saying goes, he who approaches equity, must do so with clean hands, Ayade was given option to forego his Governorship ambition and take the senate, since for the APC, Ayade is unmarketable but his love for power didn't allow him concur to the bargain.
Gershom Bassey, Rose Oko, Essien Ayi, Jarigbe Agom, Daniel Asoquo went to the national chairman through senator Rose Oko, to demand for automatic ticket for all national assembly members with a threat of defection. Secondus was left with no other option, but to ask Ayade to deliver all national assembly members. Behind all these plans, Liyel Imoke has his role, and hopes to present her wife and the Senatorial candidate for PDP in Central Senatorial District of CRS.
The joy of this automatic ticket is that, the above legislators apart from Jarigbe who enjoys social media popularity, will not give APC any issue to crack on the forth coming elections.
Senator Gershom Bassey, would be facing Prince Otu, without the help of Liyel in power. Ayade is too docile to deliver any candidate, and the federal might, favours the APC. Senator Rose Oko, if given ticket to stand election with Ray Murphy, Wabily Nyiam or Larry Odey, would fail with a great margin. Etabe has no political relevance in Obubra and there is no Owan to deliver him. Jarigbe Agom fears the sagacity of his  kinsman Rt. Hon. Paddy Uguge who if permitted to contest in the PDP, will defeat him at the primaries, given that Jarigbe through his utterances on social media and private conversations has always worked against the Ngaji's, will obviously loose Yala totally, Paddy will share nkem Iborr and nkem Irede wards, the Timmy Tom fracture will give urban 1 and 2 to Paddy and ofcourse Mbube will vote against him, since he prefers and Urban lady from his camp to an Mbube son. Whatever be the situation, either paddy or Jari would have to meet with Khaki Agbe, a dogged fighter.
In all of these political calculations and antics, I see the fear of APC, I see their frights in silent, I see their hopes been dashed away.
The big question is, can PDP win elections in Cross River State again, with those bunch of unmarketable politicians that even the APC rejected? 
Does Ayade have the political sagacity and determination of Liyel to rig elections?
Will the APC federal government permit a failure in the state a second time after the huge benefits the state enjoys at the center?
Is this imposition saga not an advantage for us the APC to file strong contendants, with the transparent nature of Inec and other security agencies to win Cross River State and indeed all other political offices?  2019 is indeed interesting.

Driver beat up his passenger in a public vehicle. 



By Eje Peter
A commercial bus driver of a popular company, The Young Shall Grow,  reportedly beat up His passenger along Delta /Onitsha Express Way.

Speaking with the victim, he said "the Driver neither listen to us whenever we complain of being pressed nor does He show concern for any complaint.
 So this last one that resulted to Him beating me was, a woman got to her Bus-Stop and told the Driver that She wants to alight. But the Driver pretended as not to hear this Woman. At this point ,I got pissed and decided to bang at the door vehemently. Immediately the Driver came out with His conductor and started punching my face".

He also added that ,"it was the intervention of my fellow passengers that saved me. Because I don't know what there had in mind towards me".

ABUJA

01/08/2018.

A Federal High Court sitting in Abuja has ordered the arrest of the Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Mahmood Yakubu, for failing to appear in court.

Justice Stephen Pam issued the warrant of arrest on Thursday after Mahmood’s absent in court for the third time.

The judge asked the police to effect the arrest immediately.

Justice Pam had on July 5 ordered Yakubu to appear before him to show cause why he should not be sent to prison for contempt of court.

The judge made the order for Mahmood to appear before him while ruling on a preliminary objection by INEC and its Chairman in a contempt proceeding filed by Ejike Oguebego and Chuks Okoye, Chairman and Legal Adviser of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Anambra State, respectively.

Five days later, on July 10 when the court sat again, the INEC boss did not show up with his counsel, Mr Adeboyega Awomolo, informing the court that his client had filed an appeal challenging that order at the appeal court and another appeal before the Federal High Court asking for a stay of proceedings pending the determination of the appeal.

But counsel to the plaintiff informed the court that contrary to the claims of the INEC counsel there was no material evidence before the court to stop the order of the court or the hearing.

In his ruling (on July 10), Justice Pam held that the fiat by the Chief Judge of the Federal High Court to hear the matter subsists.

The judge, however, adjourned the case to August 1 (today)to allow the INEC chairman to attend to his mother’s funeral but insisted that the INEC boss must appear before the court as ordered at the next sitting.

But when the court reconvened today, the INEC Chairman was absent, a development that led to the order for his arrest.

Mr Francis made this available to theeaglesvoiceblog on Wednesday.
Theeaglesvoiceblog quote verbatim Mr Ekpo's speech.  Read full statement below.

My dear brothers and sisters of Yala 1 state constituency, I do not propose to say many words today. The time has come when action rather than speech is needed. The action that precedes religious or partisan lines, the action to re-unite our families, the action to care for the aged and our retired parents, the action to build bridges across the already separated political rivers, the action to build and develop the potentials of our smart, hard working, highly intelligent and dedicated youths.

I have traversed round the eight political wards of Yala one State constituency; the stories are the same, the pictures in my subconscious are disturbing, absolutely nothing has changed, our Farm land are the same, our schools are deteriorating except for few, thanks to SUBEB, Not to talk of the cognitive and psychomotor output of our children. I couldn’t see hope on the faces of our youths, the hunger, poverty and negligence of our people is nothing to write home about.

Three of the most fundamental challenges and ordeals that heralds the collapse and poor representation in our constituency are
1. Leadership
2. Leadership
3. Leadership

Everything rises and falls on leadership. The kind of representation we have today from Yala one State constituency in the CRS House of assembly is nothing to write home about. Yala has never had it this bad. From Hon. Moses Ogble to Hon. D J Ogar, Hon. Ogalama, Hon. Mathew Ojugbor, Rt. Hon. Tom Agi, to Rt. Hon. Larry Odey. 

In this revolution, research has become very central. History is not a fiction of lies but past realities, History has been vindicated to an extent that it is clearer to the blind and very audible to the deaf that from inception, yala one state constituency has always produced representatives of substance and value, but for this one.

My fellow constituents, I know you’ve been neglected in the past 37 months, don't expect miracles in the next 9 months, the story would be the same. However, we can change the story and narratives in 2019. I know you’ve wallowed in tears and disappointment, the hour of restoration has come.

Isaiah heard the voice of the Lord Saying, who will I send and who will go, Isaiah answered, here I am Lord, send me. My fellow brothers and sister, I’ve heard your call today, I have answered and I’m willing to go on this errand for you, I’m willing to be your voice in the wilderness, I’m willing to speak for you, I’m willing to be a friend that sticks more than a brother, I’m willing to be the Son that would wipe away tears of his parents, I’m willing to be your lobbyist, your negotiator, I’m willing to be your representative, I’m willing to be your law maker.

My fellow youths, the bulk of this process lies in your hands, we must guard against acquisition of unwarranted influence, weather sought or unsought, we must never give room for certain characters to endanger our destinies and future, we must kick against imposition, the voice of the people must prevail, we would take nothing for granted. my ambition is completely anchored in God with my in-depth knowledge that power comes only from God

Ladies and gentlemen, my fellow constituents, it is on this note that I hereby declare my intention to contest for a seat in the Cross River State house of Assembly to represent the good people of Yala one state constituency.
Let's do this together...
We rise by lifting others...
And together, we can achieve the extraordinary.

Thank you, and God bless.

Francis Odachi Ekpo.

Written by Ogar Emmanuel Oko

Against the many lies given by the barrack's boys for expelling the second republic political leaders under the superintendent of Alhaji Shehu Shagari of being corrupt; the whole water from River Niger cannot watch them clean of the evil dirt they brought on us as a nation.

Some governors in that dispensation were clever. They were innovative and visionary in their leadership approach. They understood the essence of governance. They knew that good name was better than riches. Though, some were corrupt. Others weren't. My few months of sojourning in Imo state, I've been interacting with people and visiting places to be informed socially and politically. Those I mingled with, were actively involved in politics then.

One erstwhile governor that his names rings like Monday bell is Dr. Sam Mbakwe. Mbakwe was a great man of extraordinary prudence. A native of Obowo LGA and by extension, my in-law.

In less than four years, available record shows that he built 14 factories/industries across the state that comprised of Imo and Abia states then. His administration successfully built paper industry in Orlu, paint industry in Aboh Mbaise and airport at Ahiazu.

After they were ingloriously chased out, most of their achievements suffered greatly due to mismanagement. Some of these industries and factories are now homes of rodents and goons. This generation leaders are busy junketing around the globe; misappropriating and embezzling public funds. They're signing preposterous memorandum of understanding (MoUs).

Many governors today after about 4 years in power can't pinpoint any meaningful project executed by them. They prefer to be described as supersonic and digital governors while in reality, they're analog.

Let the leaders of today emulate the legacies of the leaders of old. Today's leaders should know that good name is far better than ill got. Sam Mbakwe was a good politician.
