Where are these Palestinians going to live when the war is over? So many of their homes are being destroyed.
Does Israel have an answer? Does it care?
Over a million people have fled their homes in Gaza, with many following Israeli warnings to evacuate to the south.

Loans backed by natural resources (oil, gas, minerals) are toxic. They are non-transparent, unfair, corruptible, complicate debt resolution, and mortgage the future of countries. Africa must end all natural resources-backed loans. @EmmanuelMacron @SecYellen

1. The great thing about an Election Petition is than one has to condescend upon the particular.
So @PeterObi will produce the evidence to back his claim.
But if he’s saying he WON, it’s no longer a matter of cancelling or re-running. It’s about the maths.

“Structural racism is never a case of innocent and pure, persecuted people of colour versus white people intent on evil and malice. Rather, it is about how Britain’s relationship with race infects and distorts equal opportunity.” /10

At times, the most important part of advocacy work doesn't involve loud statements, placards and other visible efforts. However, it's important for public pressure to continue while legal and other "quiet" efforts provide the opportunity for the right thing to be done.

Pfizer and some other pharma companies have demanded complete confidentiality during vaccine negotiations. In ZA, experts fear secrecy clauses may undo public trust built up by years of anti-corruption work.
