Ultimate Love: Kachi Finally Breaks Silence on Breakup with Rosie

 

Barely a  week after Rosie broke the news of her broken relationship with Kachi, the reality Show star Kachi has addressed fans and supporters following rumours about his relationship with Rosie.

Kachi in a note of apology shared on Instagram said he never carried out the actions he was accused of on his partner Rosie. The reality star while apologising to his fan base said he feels hurt to see what they have had to go through.

According to him, he needed to find strength before addressing the issue. He wrote: "I sincerely apologize for my long silence. I needed to find strength before addressing the public because I have never been in such a situation before. Those that know me, know what I stand for. We all make mistakes in this journey of life as humans, but I am very much not capable of doing the things that have been circulating on social media.

Still speaking on the matter, the reality star said he feels hurt to see people who have been on the journey with him hurt.

Kachi also apologised to his fan base, Roknation, for the emotional stress that they have had to endure for his sake.

"Roknation, sincerely from the bottom of my being, I am sorry for the emotional stress these past few days have put you through. You have been part of my journey right from the house through the trying times, the sweet times, the joyful times to the teary times, you stood right by me without doubts and unshaken."

The Ultimate Love co-winner made the revelation on Instagram where she stated that they were still on good terms.

Rosie’s disclosure came barely a few days after Kachi released a video of them together in an attempt to quell the breakup rumours.

US Election 2020: Former President Jonathan Counsels US Presidential Election Likely Loser

 

The much awaited presidential election of the United States of America is gradually coming to an end. The results are not over yet as the president-elect is yet to be declared. Even Joe Biden is leading with highest popular and Electoral College votes, ahead of incumbent President Donald Trump, no winner has been announced yet. Based on many assertions by the incumbent president, there are speculations that President Trump might not want to relinquish power if he lost the election.

Former Nigeria's President Goodluck Jonathan has sent a message to Donald Trump. In his characteristic peaceful style Goodluck Jonathan posted on his social media handle few hours ago urging President Donald Trump to maintain peace and order as his election or ambition is not worth the blood of anybody or citizens.

Goodluck Jonathan wrote saying, "Nobody's ambition is worth the blood of any citizen. It is better to gain honour at the cost of losing power, than to gain power at the cost of losing honour."

"At any point in time, the power of love should matter more than the love of power. This is my philosophy, I have lived it."

"It has brought great peace to my beloved nation and I. And I recommend it to all leaders facing challenging situations, either in government, or at the polls, or even in their dealings with fellow political actors."

Emphatically, nobody's political ambition is worth the blood of anybody or citizens. In a moment like this, the only thing the incumbent United States President Donald Trump could do if he eventually lose to VP Joe Biden is to honourably relinquish power to the winner. Gaining power at the cost of losing honour is far better than gaining power at the cost of losing honour. Let's all allow the power of love to flow not just in US but everywhere.

US Election: How Electoral College Works

 

The whole world is interested in USA elections for obvious reasons but many people don't know how election works in US even many residents of America. Let's take a look at it. 

The candidate who wins a state’s popular vote typically earns the support of that state’s electors, who are chosen by state legislatures. Each state is allocated a different number of electors based on census results.

Winning 270 electoral votes or more puts you in the White House. And because some states carry more electors than others, it is possible — and perfectly legitimate — for a candidate to lose the popular vote but win the election. That’s why presidential candidates typically focus on winning states like Texas (38), Florida (29) and New York (29) as opposed to Vermont, Wyoming or Alaska, which all have just three electoral votes. Winning three states can mean 96 electoral votes or just nine.

Out of the last 45 contests, five have produced commanders-in-chief who did not win the majority of the popular vote, including George W. Bush in 2000. In 2016, Donald Trump lost the national popular vote to Democrat Hillary Clinton by 2.87 million votes, but secured 304 electoral votes to her 227.

Why are there 538 electors?

There is one for every seat in Congress — 100 senators and 435 representatives — plus three for the unrepresented District of Columbia.

Here, in descending order, is the number of electors pledged by each state:

55: California

38: Texas

29: Florida, New York

20: Illinois, Pennsylvania

18: Ohio

16: Georgia, Michigan

15: North Carolina

14: New Jersey

13: Virginia

12: Washington

11: Arizona, Indiana, Massachusetts, Tennessee

10: Maryland, Minnesota, Missouri, Wisconsin

9: Alabama, Colorado, South Carolina

8: Kentucky, Louisiana

7: Connecticut, Oklahoma, Oregon

6: Arkansas, Iowa, Kansas, Mississippi, Nevada, Utah

5: Nebraska, New Mexico, West Virginia

4: Hawaii, Idaho, Maine, New Hampshire, Rhode Island

3: Alaska, Delaware, D.C., Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Vermont, Wyoming

Total: 538

When does this voting take place?

While we’re all accustomed to finding out who won on election night, the president is not formally elected until the electors cast their votes. They always meet the Monday after the second Wednesday in December following the election. This year, the electors will meet on Dec. 14 to cast their votes. Both chambers of Congress will meet on Jan. 6 to count these votes and officially name the winner.

Electors are “pledged” to a presidential ticket based on the results of the popular vote in each state or district. In most cases, all of a state’s electors go to the candidate who gets the most votes in the state; Maine and Nebraska also use the results at the district level to allocate a share of their votes.

But, yet, it’s not that straightforward. “Faithless electors” can still cast their vote against the candidate that they are pledged to vote for. Seven such “faithless electors” actually voted in 2016 for someone other than the candidate to whom they were pledged: two in Trump’s column and five in Clinton’s.

The rules, you see, are enshrined in the U.S. constitution. But so, too, is the power the states have to decide amongst themselves how to follow them.

Joe Biden About to Make History

 

Biden has already broken the record for most votes ever received by a presidential candidate in United States history.

Joe Biden, 77, has so far received the votes of 70,005,568 people, breaking the record set by his former running mate Barack Obama, who earned 66,862,039 votes during his successful presidential run in 2008, according to the Associated Press and The New York Times.

WTO: More Boost for Dr Okonjo-Iweala from Powerful Forces Despite US Opposition

Nigerian nominee for the World Trade Organization (WTO) top job, Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala has received major boost ahead of the November 9 voting despite US stiff opposition against her nomination.

Recall that the US opposed her and backed her opponent, South Korea nominee, Yoo Myung-hee for the top job. Interestingly, indication emerge that Okonjo-Iweala is still favoured to win as powerful forces have determined to backed her to win the post in defiance of US position on the issue. These powerful forces include top European countries who are ready to defy US pressure to vote for Okonjo Iweala.

 

Another strong forces backing Okonjo-Iweala are WTO Ambassadors who believe in her ability and competence to head the institution. The WTO Ambassadors also have a great role to play in the selection process as their support for a candidate they believe in can help favour the candidate to win the post. More so, the WTO Ambassadors can help to convince their various countries to vote for the candidate they are backing.

Another advantage Okonjo-Iweala has is that she has the full backing of another powerful super power, China. China can stand tall and boldly against the US to ensure that she wins the post. China has many loyal allies just like the US. China also enjoys all the privileges that US enjoys.

China is a major rival to the US and can do all within its powers to prove US wrong by backing Okonjo-Iweala to win the top job against the wish of the US. China is the major Asian giant that many other countries in the continent look up to. Undoubtedly, China will help her secure more votes from other Asian countries to ensure that she wins despite the opposition against her by the US.

Additionally, Okonjo-Iweala has the full backing of her home country Nigeria which nominated her in the first place. She also has the full backing of African countries which is her own continent which means that the coast is clear for her on her home front.

The US would hopes to pressurize more countries including its allies to vote for Myung-hee to ensure that Okonjo-Iweala does not win. Donald Trump's country may use different methods to pressurize these countries including telling them the gains they would benefit from the US if they vote for Myung-hee as instructed and the sanctions as well as other losses they would suffer if they fail to do so. Some poorer countries that depend on the US very well may dance to its tune while some may not and they will be ready to face the consequences. Stronger countries like the powerful China and other European countries that are backing Okonjo-Iweala do not have much to lose and they are most likely to still vote for her to win.
