BREAKING. THE ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY, JUSTIN WELBY RESIGNS

This comes after the independent Makin review discovered that the Church of England covered up sexual abuse by a barrister.

Following calls for his resignation, Welby said the report “exposed the long-maintained conspiracy of silence about the heinous abuses of John Smyth”.

According to Welby, he believed wrongly that an appropriate resolution would follow” when he was told in 2013 that Smyth had been reported to the police.

In a statement, Welby said: ‘Having sought the gracious permission of His Majesty The King, I have decided to resign as Archbishop of Canterbury.

“It is very clear that I must take personal and institutional responsibility for the long and retraumatizing period between 2013 and 2024”.

The independent Makin review into John Smyth QC’s abuse of children and young men was published last week.

John Smyth QC is said to have subjected his victims to traumatic physical, sexual, psychological and spiritual attacks.

The report concluded he might have been brought to justice had Mr Welby formally reported it to police a decade ago.

Smyth died aged 75 in Cape Town in 2018 while under investigation by Hampshire Police, and so was “never brought to justice for the abuse”, the review said.

FBI, CIA, DEA BIGGEST BLOW TO DEMOCRACY IN AFRICA, BY RAPHAEL ADEBOYE

FBI, CIA, DEA BIGGEST BLOW TO DEMOCRACY IN AFRICA! BY RAPHAEL ADEBOYE I just read the document detailing the United States’ multiagency defense of the drug baron in Aso Villa. Let’s be clear about one thing: the FBI, CIA, DEA and other US agencies in that report just delivered the most damaging blow to liberal democracy and representative governance the world has ever witnessed since the collapse of the Soviet Union. The CIA and other covert US intelligence agencies have dedicated most of their existence since the post-1945 period to throttling regimes considered inimical to liberal democracy, from Eastern Europe to South America, Asia, and Africa. African leaders have been summarily assassinated, overthrown, or demonized by the CIA and other Western security agencies and propaganda outfits under the pretext that these leaders were undemocratic and “unreasonable.” Telling the Nigerian people that they do not have the right to question the background of the impostor who has imposed himself on them is precisely the same as telling them not to exist or be citizens who fulfill their civic duties. How much privacy is too much privacy? Nigerians know all about the adventures of Hushpuppi, as publicly and volubly disclosed by the FBI, despite Hushpuppi being a private citizen. How is the Instagram Hushpuppi different from this unpresidential Hushpuppi in public office? Even Donald Trump, while merely campaigning, was unequivocally open about his medical records and several other so-called “private” information. So what is all this buffoonery and obfuscatory Glomarization concealing crucial details on a public servant who bludgeoned his way to the highest office in a country of nearly 250 million citizens? What is the point of representative democracy if the people cannot question their public servants about anything and everything? Every liberal democratic constitution I know states that sovereignty belongs to the people. What the FBI, CIA, and others are telling us now is that this is pure speculative fiction. Even pre-colonial African states did not indulge in this level of tone-deafness whenever the people asked consequential questions. How many more people must die? How many more juveniles must be unjustly imprisoned and violated? How many more citizens of this country must suffer and be strangulated? How much more damage must the usurper in Aso Villa cause in Nigeria and the Sahel before the US starts taking its professed commitment to democracy, human rights, and transparency seriously in Africa? At this point, we Africans had better set to work to revive and critically develop our traditional institutions if we ever want to make it out of our current rut. We were democratic long before the Europeans came to tell us their democracy was superior.

TRUMP VOWS TO HELP RESTORE ELECTORAL INTEGRITY IN NIGERIA – RESPONSE TO GOODLUCK JONATHAN

TRUMP VOWS TO HELP RESTORE ELECTORAL INTEGRITY IN NIGERIA – RESPONSE TO GOODLUCK JONATHAN Following his victory as the 47th President of the United States, Donald Trump received a congratulatory message from former Nigerian President, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan. The message, which expressed goodwill and hope for global peace, was acknowledged by Trump on his official X account, marking a moment of diplomatic exchange. In his congratulatory note, Jonathan emphasized the significance of Trump’s triumph, describing it as a testament to the trust reposed in him by the American people. “I extend my warmest congratulations on your election as the 47th President of the United States. Your significant victory underscores the trust that the American people have in your leadership and vision for the future,” Jonathan stated. The former Nigerian leader went further to highlight his optimism for Trump’s presidency, urging him to advance not only American interests but also to foster global stability. “I am hopeful that your presidency will go beyond advancing American interests to support global peace, stability, and progress. Once again, please accept my heartfelt congratulations,” Jonathan added. Trump, in response, expressed gratitude for Jonathan’s message and reiterated his administration’s commitment to fostering strong ties with African nations. A statement shared by the Donald Trump Campaign Updates account highlighted the President-elect’s vision for strengthening electoral systems in Africa, with a particular focus on Nigeria. “Thanks for your goodwill words. Together we will make America great again and restore electoral integrity in Nigeria and across the African continent,” the statement read. This development suggests that Trump’s administration could prioritize collaborations aimed at enhancing democracy and fair elections in Africa, signaling a possible shift in U.S.-Africa relations under his leadership. Observers have noted the potential for such initiatives to bolster democratic values across the continent, aligning with global calls for transparent and credible electoral processes. As Trump prepares to take office, global leaders and observers alike will be watching closely to see how his administration balances domestic priorities with international diplomacy.
