The Rebirth of Obubra, a collective responsibility by James Agada II Coneri Magazine

The Rebirth of Obubra, a collective responsibility  By  James Agada Coneri Magazine It has become expedient that we remind ourselves of the present state of our dear LGA and its impending danger. It is no longer news that Obubra which is one of the oldest and biggest LG in the state with over ninety communities still has nothing to show as a LGA. Yet it has been consigned to the back seat of political orbit and development of the State and in the country at large. The people have been abased and abused. We have toured through ill-fated paths over the years as our land has been swerved to a dumpster.  No one to speak for the Obubra man as we incautiously allow external maladroits to swing us to a state of directionlessness. This has eaten deep into the fibres of our nationhood. It is pugnacious that since the death of late _Chief John Oyom Okpa,_ Obubra has been hovering within the circumference of pestiferousness which can only be eschewed by the unity of th...

IMMORTALIZING OKAN PETER: A CLARION CALL TO ALL AND SUNDRY ...Desmond Cruz In Life there are just two days for every mankind, a day FOR us, and a day AGAINST Us. On the 31st day of March 2020, life and destiny came against us and took one of our finest. Today, we bow our heads not in prayer but in pains. Today, we bow our heads not in triumph but in travails, for amongst us, lies a comrade who has fallen in the line of battle. But then we are consoled by the fact that, once a man is born, he is old enough to die. The tragedy of death is but for the living as we live to die someday and die to live somewhere where eternity beckons. Comrade Okan Peter might have fallen but his legacies lives on. Today, I call on all spirited comrades, progress minded men and women for us to immortalize Okan Peter, who fought gallantly and fervently in service of humanity. I call on all Leaders of Obubra, Mbembe Nation, Cross River State and all Progressive Youths to answer this clarion call of...
