RIVERS CRISIS STARTED AS FAR BACK AS FOUR YEARS AGO, SAYS FIRST LADY.

The first lady, Mrs. Patience Jonathan, said in Abuja on Wednesday that she had committed the ongoing crisis in Rivers to prayer and that the crisis started as far back as four years ago. Rivers has been embroiled in a political crisis which culminated in a free for all at the house of assembly last week, with some members injured. Mrs. Jonathan said this during a courtesy visit to the presidential villa by 16 bishops from the south-south geo-political zone. "Rivers state issue is one thing i have committed to prayer because I believe there is nothing God cannot do. God restored me and i 'll do His work without the fear of man. The truth will always remain the truth and what God ordains must come to pass and so Rivers issue is something we have handed over to God." The president's wife said contrary to some reports, she had always mediated between Gov. Chibuike Amaechi and other parties in a crisis that began four years ago. "This matter started as far back as four years ago at anyugubiri in Okrika when I begged him not to demolish a part of Okrika but (that he should) dialougue first with the people. After that incident, he called the chairman of Okrika Local Govt and sacked him for holding a reception in our honour; that boy was the first victim." "He also put my people on curfew for nine months. I called him and pleaded with him but he refused. Then I began to hear all sorts of propaganda in the media against me; this is not the way. " I've never spoken about this issue but as men of God, I believe you will say the truth always because there are a lot of conflicting interests;some will hear one thing and say the exact opposite. "I also want you to know the genesis of this problem and pray that God touches Amaechi's heart, "that boy is hot tempered" because when two elephants fight, it is the grass that suffers." Mrs. Jonathan urged the parties involved in the crisis to help resolve issues plaguing the state and not "whip up sentiments that will aggravate the problem. "I appeal to Amaechi to sheathe his sword so that we can defend our state and this country with love, unity, patriotism and truth at all times." "Hebrew 12:14 urges us to embrace peace with all men without which we cannot see God. Amaechi is my son, she said, I cannot fight him and I cannot kill him. He shouldn't be used by outsiders against his own blood because this seat is vanity. one day, no matter how long it takes, we will leave this seat. Power is not forever. this seat is vanity, others sat here and left so one day I'll also leave and we will meet at home; so why should I fight him? Let's take it easy, face issues, leave non existent matters, stop magnifying lies and respect our leaders and people in authority. Let's give peace a chance," she said. Earlier, Bishop God-do-well Awomapara, Chairman, Niger Delta Bishops forum, who led the delegation, said the visit was significant "inview of emerging situations in our region" We are on a quest to unravel the mysteries surrounding the Rivers issue and mediate where necessary."

Inspiration

You know the answer to your future but your problem is that it lies outside the confines you are having now.

It's called Self Motivation

Well Let me put it this way, that the mind we carry is a vast reservoir of much needed resources, but it follows that any kind of foreign matter may block off the orderly flow of those resources we posses. So never you tell yourself that you can't think your way through, you really do more, if you want to. But you cannot do it until you try, don't devalue your dreams, for you are to raise the price. @nedumblaze

Yes, the story has been done before - home town girl and college jock, but I've never read it written like this before. I have not read the full length novel, in fact this is the first manuscript I have read from this author. It is, quite possibly, one of the most beautifully written pieces of prose I have read in a very long time. Marx turns phrases like Bob Ross turns a white canvas into a meadow. With the flip of a wrist, there is a happy little tree then suddenly a pond and a mountain. It's mesmerizing, and anyone will admit to sitting down and watching a full episode of Bob Ross on late night PBS just to see what he does and to watch the magic happen. That is what it was like reading Cutters vs. Jocks for me. When I started, I had no idea what a Cutter was. I think this is a local dialect phrase, and would have liked some introduction or one sentence of explanation at the start. Where I went to University, there wasn't that kind of division between the locals and the university students, so the division in Cutters vs Jocks required a bit of acclimation for me. The head-hopping was another acclimation point, and I am not normally very fond of this style. Marx rotates each chapter between the two lead characters in first person narrative. There were some times, however, where I found myself forgetting whose head I was in for a sentence or two. Regardless of these two minor points, this short prequel was masterfully written, and although it isn't a normal genre I read, it has me wanting to pick up the full length novel.
