Jonathan, Amaechi Embrace in public

After the hullabaloo about Jonathan versus Amechi across the media, social networks and individuals,  President Goodluck Jonathan Governnor Rotimi Amaechi publicly embraced at the Port-Harcourt International Airport when Jonathan was returning from his home state of Bayelsa where he commissioned a hospital facility.
Presidential Villa operatives had, on Wednesday, blocked Amaechi from getting to Jonathan  at the seat of power during a dinner, an action that was interpreted in many quarters as stemming from the crisis in the Nigeria Governors Forum (NGF).
The Aso Rock incident was the climax of the crisis in the NGF which saw the President disposed to Governor Jonah Jang of Plateau State as chairman of the body as against Amaechi, who secured a second term as the NGF chairman with 19 votes to 16.
Jonathan, en route Abuja after the Bayelsa visit, yesterday, embraced Amaechi at the Port-Harcourt Airport.
He arrived the airport in a presidential chopper.
As the president emerged from the helicopter, he made for the tarmac where the Rivers governor stood with members of his state executive council.

Astonishment
Both men were locked in an  embrace after a handshake while those around watched in astonishment.
Those at the airport  included the Minister of State for Education, Chief Nyesom Wike, the arrowhead of opposition to Amaechi in Rivers State, and the managing director of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC), Dr Chris Oboh.
Jonathan later boarded the presidential jet for Abuja.

Then, without warning, the first explosions shattered the calm, marking the start of an unprecedented Israeli air campaign dubbed Operation Rising Lion . Spearheaded by Israel’s cutting-edge F-35I Adir stealth fighter jets, this meticulously planned operation penetrated Iran’s multilayered air defense systems, delivering a strategic shock that has redefined modern warfare in the Middle East. A Flawless Strike: The Power of Stealth and Precision The operation began with a masterclass in stealth and coordination. Israel’s F-35I jets, equipped with advanced AI sensors, cyber warfare capabilities, and extended flight ranges, bypassed Iran’s formidable air defense network—including the vaunted Khordad 3, Bavar 373, and Russian-supplied S-300 systems—without triggering a single alert. This wasn’t a technical glitch; it was t...
