Ishilove: The Scarlet Pimpernel-
Fantastic acting by a talented cast. Ian McKellen has been old as long as I can remember so it is nice to see him in his much younger years, but the star is Anthony Andrews himself. That damned, elusive pimpernel! 
They seek him here, They seek him there, Those Frenchies seek him everywhere. Is he in Heaven? Or is he in Hell? That damned, elusive, pimpernel.
I was arrested from the very first scene. A classic.
Easily 4.5 stars.
Naptu2, you try  That was the traditional New Year's Eve movie in Lagos in the 1980s. |

Harrietpotter: Are the church hospitals fully equipped with ventilators and well staffed with nurses and doctors? Let’s stop all this propaganda and government should use the financial resources at their disposal (billions) and do the needful No o! The church hospitals are well staffed with lawyers and teachers. |

Victoronah1: thanks sis. The crazy thing is I don't even regret it at all. Like I don't even feel the connection that she is my cousin. Okay let me brief you. This is a cousin I've not met even as a baby as she turned 21. And I just met her as an adult. Everything was just new to me cause I never see her during Christmas or see her bath etc. Like you know things brothers and sisters did. That why I see her like a stranger cousin It's actually quite common and there's a name for it, but I can't remember the name. There's a hypothesis that people who are closely related (siblings, cousins, etc) who did not know each other when they were young are very likely to be attracted to each other when they meet as adults. |

Easter: Rivers Govt Cancels Relaxation Of Restrictions For Religious Gatherings
Published 3 hours ago on April 11, 2020 By ANAYO ONUKWUGHA
The Rivers State government has cancelled the concession granted to Churches to hold Easter services with their full congregations.
Governor Nyesom Ezenwo Wike, had in a state-wide broadcast on Thursday evening, announced that religious groups would be allowed to hold their full gatherings for the Good Friday and Easter Sunday services.
However, several individuals and religious groups, including the Nigerian Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs (NSCIA) and the Catholic Church, urged residents of the state not to abide by the governor’s directives.
But, the state government, in a special government announcement signed by the Commissioner for Information and Communications, Pastor Paulinus Nsirim, said the decision was taken after due consultations with eminent clergymen and well-meaning Nigerians.
The special announcement reads in part: “The Rivers State Government has cancelled the concession granted churches to hold services with their full congregations.
“This decision was taken after due consultations with eminent clergy men, well-meaning Nigerians and civil society groups.
“For the avoidance of doubt, churches should stick to the 50 persons per service to maintain social distancing.” https://leadership.ng/2020/04/11/easter-rivers-govt-cancels-relaxation-of-restrictions-for-religious-gatherings/
