Wike’s Victory: Fun Seekers, CAN’s LG Coalition Shake PH
It was celebration all the
way in Port Harcourt, the Rivers State capital as the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) local government coalition a joined other well meaning Nigerians to celebrate the Supreme Court judgement that upheld the electoral victory Governor of the state, Chief Barrister Nyesom Ezenwo Wike. The celebration was marked by special prayers, thanksgiving service, gospel songs among others.
Speaking with The Tide Entertainment, the chairman of the CAN coalition in the state and Vicar of St. Paul’s Anglican Church, Nkpor, Rumuolumeni, Hon. Rev. Peter W. Georgewill noted that the governor’s victory was worth celebrating considering the political travails he was subjected to which led to the nullification of his mandate by both the Election Petition Tribunal and the Court of Appeal.
He attributed the Governor’s victory to God’s divine intervention to save the state from disintegration. Rev. Georgewill recalled that prior to the Supreme Court verdict, the Governor had taken the matter to God in prayers by hosting the first ever Rivers State Carol Night in December last year tagged “Hossana 2015” where Christians and Men of God from various denominations across the state gathered to praise God and pray for peace in the state and success of the Wike’s administration which God answered through the Supreme Court verdict.
He stressed that now that the battle has been lost and won, the coast is now clear for the Governor to give the good people of Rives State the desired democratic dividends of his administration without further distractions.
Rev. Georgewill who is also a member of the CAN, Rivers State and the Pilgrims Board appealed to the Governor to be magnanimous in victory and carry everybody along irrespective of party affiliations.
Apart from the religious celebrations, fun seekers and members of the Ruling People’s Democratic Party (PDP) and other residents of the state also had fun as they were seen in their favourite entertainment hangouts jubilating, drinking and dancing as a result of the landmark judgement, while the operators of the joints smiled to the banks as a result of the crowd of customers that patronised them within the period of the celebrations.
Kate Henshaw
Critics claimed that her body makeover was one of the reasons she allegedly left the marriage and noted that she was still out in public with the video of her club outing.
Reacting to the allegations, Ogbodo came to Bambam’s defence. She stated that no woman would leave her marriage simply because she went under the knife. According to her, it is the man who drives a woman to leave.
The mother of three further explained that no woman willingly leaves a marriage she has invested in over many years. If a woman does leave, it is the man’s fault, possibly due to abuse that she chooses not to disclose publicly.
She added that a man must have shown the woman disrespect or failed to nurture the marriage.
Ogbodo emphasised that if a man refuses to love, protect, and give peace to his wife, the responsibility for the breakdown rests entirely with him.
It would be recalled that Uche Ogbodo also recently underwent cosmetic surgery and shared videos with her fans online,

”I want to talk about something rampant, has been rampant, and is still rampant. I just want to ask those of you who show up uninvited at events and parties, what’s your purpose? What do you aim to achieve? Then, those of you who receive a card that admits only one person and invite all your village people, don’t check with the host; you pack your people and come. What are you doing there? Why don’t you respect yourself and stay away? It’s rude, you’re a gate crasher. Respect yourself enough to stay away from places you aren’t invited to,” she said.
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has unveiled dates for both the 99th Academy Awards and its landmark 100th ceremony. The back-to-back events, set for 2027 and 2028, will mark the final years of the Oscars airing on longtime broadcast partner ABC before a major shift to YouTube.
The 99th Oscars will take place on Sunday, March 14, 2027, followed by the historic 100th edition on Sunday, March 5, 2028. Both ceremonies will broadcast live at 7 p.m. ET from the iconic Dolby Theatre in Hollywood and reach audiences in over 200 territories worldwide. Looking ahead, the Academy has also confirmed a venue change, with the ceremony set to move to the Peacock Theater beginning in 2029, where it will remain through 2039.
