The Meghans are global frauds. Every "good" deed, Every word & Every dollar is a GRIFT. "Nigerian girls & women" my arse.💔

Do they really expect us to believe that a global games event could ever be hosted by a country that repeatedly loses track of women & children? Harry and Meghan have the lowest of low in IQs but the rest of the world can see that THIS poverty tourism trip is yet another SUSSEX SCAM.

No country will send disabled athletes or veterans to compete in a country that cannot keep track of school kids. Shame on Nigeria's Defense Minister and all at Invictus who are involved in this fraudulent visit.

ABUJA, Nigeria (AP) — "Security forces swept through large forests in Nigeria’s northwest region on Friday in search of nearly 300 children abducted from their school by motorcycle-riding gunmen in the latest mass kidnapping, which analysts and activists blamed on the failure of intelligence and a slow security response.

The abduction of the 287 children in Kaduna state, near the West African nation’s capital, is one of the largest school kidnappings in the decade since the kidnapping of schoolgirls in Borno state’s Chibok village in 2014 stunned the world. Analysts and activists say the security lapses that allowed that mass abduction remain.

The victims of the latest attack — among them at least 100 children aged 12 or under — were surrounded and marched into a forest just as they were starting the school day, said locals in Kuriga town, located 55 miles (89 kilometers) from the city of Kaduna. One man was shot dead as he tried to save the students, school authorities said."

"With no word from the abductors, the bishops are calling on the state to identify the kidnappers and save the hostages.

The remote town of Kuriga, in Nigeria’s Kaduna state, is still reeling after dozens of armed extremists kidnapped hundreds of students out of their classes in broad daylight on the morning of March 7. Worried parents are now calling for government intervention, after days without any word from the abductors. As of March 13, the children have yet to be found.

The AP reports that at least 287 students were abducted – with about 100 of them aged 12 or under – making it one of the largest kidnappings since the 2014 abduction of the Chibok girls, when 275 girls were taken from their school by Boko Haram.

The parallels between the two kidnappings have created more worry for parents, as even to this day nearly 100 of the Chibok girls remain missing.

The March 7 kidnapping saw children taken from the school just as the day was starting, at around 8 a.m.. They were herded into the forest. It took authorities several hours to respond to the scene and begin a search operation, but it is unclear how deep into the forest the kidnappers went.

Locals have suggested that the abductors belong to a group of bandits who have been terrorizing remote villages in Nigeria’s northwest and central regions.

14-year-old Nigerian girl could declared a martyr. Nigeria is one of the places of most intense suffering for Christians in our day.

Bishop Wilfred Anagbe of Makurdi has called on the government to intercede on behalf of the Christian population, which he said is being targeted by these attacks. Bishop Anagbe told OSV:

“The kidnappings, killings and destroying churches we are experiencing every day are aimed at finishing Christians. We are worried that despite such killings and kidnappings, the government has never arrested anyone. As a church, we now demand that the government act quickly to stop these vices that continue to dishearten people.”

I try hard not to hate anyone, but The Meghans sure know how to push the right buttons. 🤐🤬

Safety 1st: The UK is unsafe but African countries where Nigerian schoolgirls are kidnapped & Zika Zones for childbearing royals are no problem.

Europe 2003 -- The Next 10 Years --- 2003: Honecker Is Alive

By Jay Hershey.

FOR YEARS, POLITICIANS, financial analysts, journalists and astrologers have monopolized the predictions business, each with about the same lack of success. So, The Wall Street Journal Europe decided to tap a new source of crystal-ball gazers: Europe's comedians, satirists and other jesters. Will they come closer to the truth than the pundits?

Germany's humanitarian courts may have freed Erich Honecker due to his cancer, but Berlin cabaret star Gisela Oechelhaeuser predicts he'll be alive in 2003, in Chile. (Wasn't another former German leader rumored to be in the region?) Ms. Oechelhaueser's ensemble at the Distel Cabaret for years nurtured the art of sidestepping Mr. Honecker's censors, but she couldn't bear another decade of his "inane speeches."

Political satirist Martin Buchholz, another star in Berlin's thriving cabaret scene, shares a rather detailed vision of the future. On March 14, 2003, Mr. Buchholz predicts, a heavily bearded man will present himself at our offices in London. He is a journalist on economic matters, he informs the bureau, and wants to share the wealth of his knowledge in a regular column titled "Charlie's Corner." The Journal and its readers are equally thrilled, for Charlie proves to be witty and extremely well-read -- rare qualities at a time when modern economic theories have turned out to be utter nonsense.

The truth, however, is detected too late. Charlie is a ghostwriter -- the ghost of writer Karl Marx, to be precise. Correcting its oversight, the Journal Europe quickly promotes Marx to ghosteditor. As Charlie himself says, "Where would capitalism be today without my `Kapital?'"

Le Monde humor columnist Claude Sarraute wakes up in 2003, turns on the radio and collapses, "horrified by what I learn, by what I know, by what I see."

Britain has become an under-developed country. Like Greece, Portugal and Ireland, it is entitled to European Community convergence funds. Sussex, like the rest of Europe, is turning into a desert. Farmers consider using beasts of burden again. "Thank you Common Agricultural Policy! Thank you GATT!" Europe's youth attains endangered-species status. "Forced to work like animals to pay the pensions of almost 300 million old folk, the young are sheltered -- from unemployment!"

British comedian Michael Bentine isn't quite so gloomy about 2003. The Japanese Rolls Royce will be electric car of the year, he says, and a distinguished animal-rights leader will be eaten by a lion. A McDonald's will open on the moon. If that doesn't ease global unemployment, reintroducing slavery will. After the moon is colonized, the first manned expedition to Mars will land -- and be met by a CNN crew. As a humanitarian gesture to a group staying on Earth, free hearing aids will be distributed to the rock `n' roll generation.

For Jose Maria Perez, a political satirist whose cartoons appear in Spain's El Pais under the pen name Peridis, there will be good news and bad news in 2003. Forest fires will be a thing of the past. But so will forests. The South Pole will have melted. But there'll be great golfing in Antartica. Russia will disappear, replaced by 700 republics, 300 civil wars and 20 million U.N. peace-keeping forces. Good news for Italy is that the pope will again be Italian. The bad news is he'll come from Sicily.

Belgian cartoonist Luc Zeebroek, also known as Kamagurka, predicts that by 2003 his country will exist only on paper, to give the king a job. Technological advances will mean more free time for vast numbers of Europeans, as they'll be unemployed. A resulting boom in down-market cafes and restaurants will create some jobs. Other work will include repairing things that used to be thrown away. But manufacturers will outsmart these competitors by finally making more durable products.

Belgian pop star Jean-Luc Fonck, whose satirical rock group Sttellla lampoons his country's weakness for beer and frites, sees a future that includes 99 European TV channels and workers who refuse to accept pay cuts. Asked how he feels about people like Karl Otto Poehl making decisions that affect his life, Mr. Fonck says, "Karl Otto Poehl? Dunno him. We never sang together."
