U.S. President Donald Trump has revoked the Presidential Memorandum on Mexico City Policy and Assistance for Voluntary Population Planning, which allowed voluntary abortion in the U.S.

Mr. Trump, who made anti-abortion policy one of his campaign promises, announced the revocation on Monday, according to a statement issued by the White House.“I hereby revoke the Presidential Memorandum of January 23, 2009, for the Secretary of State and the Administrator of the United States Agency for International Development (Mexico City Policy and Assistance for Voluntary Population Planning), and reinstate the Presidential Memorandum of January 22, 2001, for the Administrator of the United States Agency for International Development (Restoration of the Mexico City Policy).

“I direct the Secretary of State, in coordination with the Secretary of Health and Human Services, to the extent allowable by law, to implement a plan to extend the requirements of the reinstated Memorandum to global health assistance furnished by all departments or agencies.

“I further direct the Secretary of State to take all necessary actions, to the extent permitted by law, to ensure that U.S. taxpayer dollars do not fund organisations or programmes that support or participate in the management of a program of coercive abortion or involuntary sterilisation.”

Mr. Trump said “the memorandum was not intended to, and does not, create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law or in equity by any party against the United States, its departments, agencies, or entities, its officers, employees, or agents, or any other person”.

“The Secretary of State is authorised and directed to publish this memorandum in the Federal Register,” the statement read.

With the revocation, Mr. Trump has barred U.S federal funding for foreign NGOs that support abortion, relaunching a battle that has long divided Americans.

Hehehehehe, he starts like Bubu. Barring, revoking, restricting things he has not bothered to research well. By this his action, he has successfully placed abortion back on the negotiation table. An issue Obama successfully avoided cos of that presidential directive. God forbid he continues like this, we may be seeing something simillar to what Buhar is doing. That will be catastrophic for not just America but countries dependent on them.

Dear OP,

Asking your hubby to quit his job and become a 'house husband'? I don't think any man would accept that.

And you can't afford to quit your job because you actually earn more than he does.

Why not get a nanny for your kids?

Best answer. But be careful with nannies. I know someone that out of desperation place her own mother on salary to take care of her kids. The only down side is that she can't talk to her any hw but her kids are well taken care of.

Jaymaxxy:
I am not against any secession. However, any group that wants secession should do so legally. Not by calling a country zoo or making inciting statements. The Igbo folks have representatives in the house of assembly. They should tell their reps and senators to push for referendum. Things can't be done violently again. We should learn from history.

Well said, thats what I keep telling these people

What Gambian flag? The 2 reds stripes or the same Jet with 2 red stripes like the one Asiwaju flys all over the place.?


Where is the Gambian flag sef? Abi na only your own eyes fit see the Gambian flag?

This is psychopathy. Are u aware of that? So Tinubu a Nigerian politician and supposed friend of a dictator of his country leases his own private jet to fly a madman into exile and all u can argue about is weather their is stripes on the plane or the country's national logo. My child, it is idiocy what u guys are doing. What is wrong with a young adults on nairaland?
What should worry u is that he lended his plane to such an endeavour and has the guts to use his own newspaper to blow his trumpet. Or did u miss that part it? This latest action of Tinubu will blow up in his face if its true. Imagine rubbish?

NIgeria's Transport Minister, Rotimi Amaechi, has refuted death reports of President Muhammadu Buhari.

Speaking on AriseTV during the weekend, Amaechi said Buhari is fit and healthy.

‘’Last Sunday, the president stood for one hour; and if he is not fit he would have collapsed. I do not think we should discuss president’s medical history. What are we worrying about? I will soon go for 10 days’ vacation, in which I will go for medical check-up. The rumour about his death or he is alive, is all nonsense,’’ he said.

Stingman:
NEWLY elected President-General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, John Nwodo (Junior), has said he is ready to die for Igbo cause , saying the rise of Movement for Actualisation of Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB) and Indigenous Peoples of Biafra (IPOB) no matter how divided they appear in public are basically motivated by same sense of outrage and bitterness.

Addressing a press conference in Enugu on Thursday after their inaugural meeting of the pan-Igbo group, Nwodo said he will adopt MASSOB and IPOB as a father of Igbo nation, stressing that although he does not believe in their methods or approaches for the realisation of a sovereign state of Biafra, he will not abandon them.

Nwodo noted, “Our young men and women can no longer tolerate a second class status in their own country. They can no longer forgive the President for arguing before he came into office that Niger Delta militants were meekly treated and tolerated by President Yar Adua while Boko Haram was harshly treated by President Jonathan when his law enforcement agents literally opened fire and maim and killed unarmed MASSOB and IPOB members.”

They see how returnee Boko Haram members are absolved and rehabilitated while leaders of MASSOB and IPOB are incarcerated or mercilessly murdered. In their rage, they are becoming uncontrollable as they pass a vote of no confidence on us, their parents, describing us as cowards and compromised,” he added.

According to Nwodo, “Because the older Ndigbo have seen civil war and its devastating consequences, they naturally hesitate to support any military action against the Nigerian state that may waste their children because Ndigbo business class is heavily invested in Nigeria outside Igbo land, they fervently believe in a united Nigeria even if marginalised politically.

Asked how he was going to adopt the pro- Biafra movements, the former Minister for Information reiterated, “As President-General of Ohanaeze I intend to extend my warm hand of paternity to IPOB and MASSOB. They are my children.

I shall never desert them. Their struggle is my struggle even if we do not completely agree with methods. In warfare there are two types of approaches: Coercion and diplomacy. I completely favour diplomacy.

Now u are talking

And they say igbos are united. Igbos don't have leaders

*US SEC Enforcement Actions Against Ponzi Schemes*

What Is A Ponzi Scheme?

A Ponzi scheme is an investment fraud that involves the payment of purported returns to existing investors from funds contributed by new investors. Ponzi scheme organizers often solicit new investors by promising to invest funds in opportunities claimed to generate high returns with little or no risk. With little or no legitimate earnings, Ponzi schemes require a constant flow of money from new investors to continue. Ponzi schemes inevitably collapse, most often when it becomes difficult to recruit new investors or when a large number of investors ask for their funds to be returned.
Curtailing Ponzi schemes and holding accountable the individuals responsible for these scams is a vital component of the SEC's enforcement program.
Examples of SEC enforcement actions against Ponzi schemes include:

2014
Neal V. Goyal – SEC charged a Chicago-based investment fund manager with operating a Ponzi scheme that used new investor funds to pay redemptions to existing investors and fund his own lavish lifestyle.
Gaeton "Guy" Della Penna – SEC charged a Sarasota, Fla.-based private fund manager with defrauding investors in a Ponzi scheme that ensued after he squandered their money on bad investments and personal expenses.
Joseph Signore and Paul L. Schumack II – SEC charged the operators of a South Florida-based Ponzi scheme targeting investors through YouTube videos and selling them investments in a product called virtual concierge machines (VCMs) that would purportedly generate guaranteed returns of 300 to 500 percent in four years.

*Canopy Financial* - SEC obtained an emergency asset freeze to halt a $75 million Ponzi scheme that defrauded investors in a private placement offering. The U.S. Attorney's Office for the Northern District of Illinois brought parallel criminal actions against Canopy Financial's founders.
Trevor Cook - SEC obtained an emergency asset freeze to halt a Ponzi scheme that raised $190 million from 1,000 investors through the unregistered sale of investments in a purported foreign currency trading venture. A judge later ordered Cook to be jailed for failing to comply with the asset freeze . The U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Minnesota brought a parallel criminal action against Cook.
Mantria Corporation - SEC obtained an emergency asset freeze against four individuals and two companies for perpetrating a $30 million Ponzi scheme that persuaded more than 300 investors nationwide to participate in purported environmentally-friendly investment opportunities.

When will our government wake up to this menace?
Why can't Nigeria copy the US in dealing with this fraud?
Should we wait until Nigeria/Nigerians are ruined by this unscrupulous business?
Is the government really aware of the consequences of these schemes?

I really wish we could have a saner and organized system in Nigeria

God bless Nigeria

The people u should direct ur attack on is not only the executive but also legislature. There should be laws made against such things so the security forces would have something to work with. But in Nigeria that's not the case

ThatIgboBoy:
He just had to wait till he was disgraced out of office.



Hope this our presido will do like Oga jonah by 2019 because he will surely lose

If he doesn't Nigeria will implode and ur Biafra may materialize

chijiblaze:
You can say so. But in the hypothetical situation that foreign powers invade this country to depose a sit-tight oppressive dictator from any one part of the country, say e.g. Buhari from the far North, do you really think Nigerians from the other ethnic groups / regions will rally to support him or would be less inclined to take advantage of the opportunity to actualize their own self determination aims?

Sure its an idea, I give u that. But I believe the igbos are now too lax, too dogged in their ways and thinking that if such a situation presents itself they would not be the first group to rise up. Loosing that war robbed igbos their fighting spirit but not their pride.

chijiblaze:
In case it happened to Buhari, America would be involved. UK, EU and not forgetting Biafra will join forces to take him out!

Biafra does not exist yet so don't put em on the list

LordAdam7:
No African nation would dare go to war with Nigeria if Buhari refuses to step down in 2019.

UK, France, and Germany would lead the onslaught after the US moves an Enterprise into the Atlantic. South Africa may send their frigates sha.

ECOWAS is doing show of strength because Gambia's army is less than 2000 man strong and they don't have the money to prosecute a long, bitter war. Nigeria is the exact opposite. You wouldn't just have to take out the sit-tight President, you'll also have to secure the region where the President is from, else the country will roll into a civil war.

Or do you think if the US/UK lead an onslaught to uninstall Buhari because he lost to a Southerner, that the basta.rds up not would not use that as an excuse to start a progrom on Southerners in the North. Clearly, the South would retaliate and na so civil war go start.

This is exactly why the US impressed on Jonathan to accept the results of the elections even before the elections and ask Abdusalami to broker a peace accord. Nigeria will become a Libya if the President dies or is forced to leave the seat by what appears to be an international intervention.

Even Ivory Coast was not resolved by ECOWAS. They were dragging their feet because South Africa was behind Laurent. The French intervention was so swift and decisive because as we all know, francophone countries in Africa are pretty much still French colonies.

By the way Buhari is not so daft that he would organize a free and fair election in 2019. Any incumbent in Africa that organizes a free and fair election should be prepared to vacate the presidency. If he isn't ready to vacate, he'd simply not organize a free and fair election. A bloody election is better than a disgraceful take-over.

Jammeh effed up by conducting a free and fair election if he truly wanted to retain power.

-Lord

Nyem nkwuocha

Finally it has started. Someone had to start it.

I just wonder if nigeria was to find itself at the receiving end of such an action. Would ECOWAS be so quick as to take such a bold step? If Buhari was to loose power come 2019, would he refuse to relinquish power and stay dogged to be forced out and probed or would he sit tight like other northerners before him had done.

Check your account a new withdrawal limit is out

Hehehe, they have used una money go do Christmas runz. Sorry

Get a spiritual divorce and a spiritual restraining order.

With those, you will be good

Hilarious

Do you masturbate?.
Do you have HEAVY lust?.
Do you womanise?.

If you want to be completely free, pls repent from all your sins and don't go back to them any more.

[s]Don't listen to Atheists they will soon be here.[/s]

I have corrected ur post.
@ OP, there is nothing like spiritual wives and husbands but there is something like ignorance and its what is killing Nigerians.
That is how a 12 years old epileptic boy got his feet burnt by charcoal cos one devilish pastor told his parents that the seizures the boy had was evil attacks. His feet gangrened and had to be amputated. We were so mad we almost sued the boys parents for assault.

Na wah ooh, if dem dey kill Christians like that why dem no dey finish? How much Christians will have to be killed to make a dent on their population?

LePrezident:
You didn't tell us if you gave her your number or not. That part interests me most.

I told u she took my number cos she promised to pay which I knew was empty cos I didn't do what I did with the interest of seeing her again. Anyway she did call a couple of times till it became clear to her that I wasn't going to be a willing replacement for her previous immature guy so she told me before she bowed out and I quote "I am just too unlucky with men. The ones I want happen not to be interested in me. The ones I don't want but still date play silly pranks like leaving behind in an expensive restaurant". That was the last I heard of or from her.
