• 🇺🇸🇳🇬 US TO WITHDRAW ABOUT 200 TROOPS FROM NIGERIA BY SEPTEMBER  The United States is preparing to withdraw about 200 military personnel from Nigeria by late September, according to reports citing US military officials.  Smaller teams of American trainers and intelligence personnel are expected to remain in Nigeria as Washington continues its security partnership with the country.  The US deployment, which began earlier this year, focused on intelligence, surveillance, training and counterterrorism support.  US Africa Command Commander, Gen. Dagvin Anderson, said many American troops had already been withdrawn following a May operation in the Lake Chad Basin that killed Abu Bilal al-Minuki, described by US officials as a senior Islamic State leader.  Anderson said the operation significantly weakened ISIS leadership and stressed that intelligence cooperation with Nigeria would continue.  The Pentagon has described the deployment as a model for supporting African partners through a limited military footprint rather than a large permanent presence.  The planned withdrawal therefore does not mean an end to US-Nigeria security cooperation, as Washington is expected to maintain intelligence and training support.  #USNigeria #Nigeria #USMilitary #Security #CounterTerrorism #LakeChad #AFRICOM #Terrorism #NigeriaNews #BreakingNews #Morganable
  • Bangladesh is considering joining the Mecca Pact, a defence agreement involving Saudi Arabia, Türkiye and Pakistan.  The move could reshape Dhaka’s foreign relations, particularly with neighbouring India, as Bangladesh seeks to strengthen its security ties with key Muslim-majority countries.  However, Bangladesh has not made a final decision on joining the pact.
  • Catastrophic flash flood has swept through communities along the Nepal-Tibet border, killing dozens of people and leaving hundreds missing.  The disaster struck after a massive ice-and-rock avalanche from a glacier collapsed into the Lhende River in Nepal’s Rasuwa district, triggering a powerful surge of water and debris downstream.  A magnitude 4.4 earthquake was recorded in the region shortly before the flood, raising questions over whether the tremor contributed to the glacier collapse. However, authorities say investigations are still ongoing and the exact trigger has not been conclusively established.  The flood destroyed homes, roads, bridges and other infrastructure, while several hydropower projects were also affected.  Rescue operations are underway in both Nepal and Tibet, but damaged roads and difficult mountainous terrain are hampering efforts to reach affected communities.  Authorities are continuing to search for missing people and assess the scale of the destruction.
  • THE MUSIC WORLD MOURNS A LEGEND  DOLLY PARTON DIES AT 80  American singer, songwriter, actress, businesswoman and philanthropist Dolly Parton has died at the age of 80.  The legendary country music icon died peacefully in Nashville, Tennessee, on Tuesday, August 25, 2026, her family confirmed.  Parton leaves behind a remarkable six-decade legacy in music, film, business and philanthropy. She was celebrated worldwide for timeless songs including “Jolene,” “9 to 5” and “I Will Always Love You.”  Beyond entertainment, she was widely admired for her humanitarian work, particularly her Imagination Library literacy programme, which has provided millions of books to children.  Her death marks the passing of one of the most influential and beloved figures in American music and popular culture.  Dolly Parton was 80.
  • Naja’atu Muhammad Denies Sending Delegation to Apologise to Pantami
Hajiya Naja’atu Muhammad has denied reports that she sent a delegation to Gombe State to apologize to former Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, Professor Isa Ali Ibrahim Pantami, over remarks she previously made about him.  The reports had suggested that Naja’atu Muhammad had taken steps to reconcile with the former minister by sending representatives to Gombe to convey an apology over comments she had earlier made concerning Pantami.  However, she has rejected the claim, describing the report as inaccurate and stressing that she did not authorized any delegation to visit Professor Pantami for such a purpose.  The development comes amid continued public interest in the previous remarks attributed to Naja’atu Muhammad and their implications, particularly given Professor Pantami’s prominent position in Nigeria’s political and public affairs.  Naja’atu’s denial therefore seeks to clarify the circumstances surrounding the alleged meeting and to distance herself from reports suggesting that she had initiated an apology through intermediaries.  She maintained that members of the public should not rely on unverified reports concerning the matter, urging them to distinguish between confirmed information and claims circulating through informal channels.  Professor Isa Ali Ibrahim Pantami, a former Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, remains a prominent figure in Nigeria’s public discourse, particularly on issues relating to technology, digital transformation, governance and national development.
The alleged delegation to Gombe had generated attention because of the personalities involved and the suggestion that it represented an attempt to resolve differences arising from Naja’atu Muhammad’s earlier comments.  With her latest clarification, however, Naja’atu has disputed the account that she sought to apologize to the former minister through representatives.  The controversy underscores the importance of verifying reports involving prominent public figures before they are circulated, particularly where claims of apologies, reconciliations or political engagements are concerned.
  • Tinubu Campaign Team Donates ₦600 Million to JIBWIS National Headquarters for Fortune University Project  The campaign team of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has donated ₦600 million to the National Headquarters of the Jama’atu Izalatil Bid’ah Wa’iqamatis Sunnah (JIBWIS) in Jos to support the development of Fortune University, a university project being undertaken by the organisation.  The donation was announced during the JIBWIS National Meeting held in Jos on Sunday, where prominent political leaders and other senior personalities were in attendance.  Among those present at the gathering was Senator Barau I. Jibrin, Deputy President of the Nigerian Senate, alongside the governors of Kano, Jigawa and Kebbi states, as well as other senior government officials and dignitaries.  The financial support is intended to contribute to the development of the university project at the JIBWIS National Headquarters in Jos, which the organisation has identified as part of its efforts to expand educational opportunities.  The presentation formed part of the activities surrounding the national meeting, which brought together JIBWIS leadership, scholars, political figures and other stakeholders.  The donation also highlights the growing engagement between political actors and religious organisations in supporting educational and community-development initiatives.  Fortune University, being developed under the auspices of JIBWIS, is expected to become an important educational institution in Jos upon completion.  #Jibwis #Sheikhjingir #Izala #Jibwisnationalheadquarters

A Tale Of Contrasting Views On Abortion presents a contrasting view of abortion with the sole purpose of adding a rich layer of understanding to the existing public perception of abortion.

This aims to uncover the shroud of cloudy grey that has long enveloped the subject matter. 

I hope you will find this piece enjoyable and insightful, as intended.

Let’s get at it, folks.

Abortion is among the severe and prevalent complex issues across the world, which has multifaceted views, medically and religiously.

Despite its deportment of both importance and disadvantages, remains a controversial designated concern.

Clarifications
Abortion is the termination of pregnancy so that it does not result in the birth of babies, which can be done in numerous ways, including surgical abortion or through the use of drugs.

Additionally, according to some sources, there’s also advancement in the system, which brought about unorthodox medical practitioners to introduce the use of herbal mixtures in terminating pregnancies.

A medical abortion is a non-surgical way to terminate a pregnancy in the first trimester, and if it is beyond this period, the procedure is likely to be more of a risk. 

A medical abortion ends an early pregnancy by using a combination of medicines. It’s a safe procedure that works by stopping the growth of the pregnancy and then causing the uterine lining to be discarded.

Controversies Regarding Abortion
Despite the copious applications surrounding the case of abortion, it remains a contentious issue affecting religious and social orders for guaranteeing immoralities to unmarried persons by encouraging the practice of premarital sex to deliberately abort the babies after being pregnant. 

This climaxes the clear concise as regards the effect of abortion on youths and other grown-up personalities, which auxiliary puncture beliefs.

Nevertheless, abortion may have its disadvantages regarding the process of aborting babies above the first three months. 

This hangs about a central part of unease around the globe, with many prescribing it as an act of killing.

The assertion as regards aborting babies of above three months remains a foremost restlessness all over the world. The view is that babies of above three months fittingly develop in their mother’s womb and then should not be dispossessed of the right to life as enacted by fundamental human rights.

Abortion As A Human Right And Proper Human Concern
Abortion, as a matter of life and death, should be free and accessible around the world with substantial enshrine of regulations to wipe away crooked and illegal practices within the system.

Abortion as a product of healthcare should be enhanced as multiple reasons perambulate the system. Therefore, the interest behind it should be sustained by providing the cost within everyone’s reach.

Toward Restriction
Abortion restrictions do not prevent frequent occurrences. Global research exposed that when abortion is banned or restricted, the act doesn’t lessen.

Abortions shift hidden. This increases the risk of unsafe alternatives, and law enforcement will prosecute people for alleged abortions.

Despite the massive unpleasant history of unsustainable practice that examined plentiful unsafe records, it should not be entirely denied. 

Hence, it should be substituted with appropriate conduct on how to do it, just like what the WHO sensitively suggested.

Several nations banned abortion as a matter of healthcare around with excessive configuration to broadly restrict the act. 

For virtually two decades, Human Rights Watch has acknowledged the human rights impairment of restricted or banned admittance to abortion in many countries around the world, including the United States of America, Argentina, Brazil, the Dominican Republic, Nigeria, Egypt, Ireland, etc.

Although it is significant, it was still nurtured to be disparaging. The destructions caused by abortion are hard to embellish. 

It destroys children, and since it’s hazardous to eliminate children, it can tear down their mothers as well. Red Cross, in research, articulated that women who have had abortions go through decades of melancholy and anxiety that asphyxiate joy.

https://www.nytimes.com/2021/05/19/briefing/abortion-debate-public-opinion.html

Entirety Banned On Abortion
Human Rights Watch accepted that reproductive rights are human rights, including the right to access abortion. States have the compulsion to offer women access to safe and legal abortion as part of their core human rights tasks.

Women across the world are experiencing difficulties, going through a series of different hardships and hindrances that curtail them from accessing abortion despite being safe, and this has resulted in multiple implications.

Restrictive abortion conventions push pregnant people seeking abortions, especially those living in poverty or rural settlements, out of the healthcare system and into treacherous, unfettered systems. 

WHO has also affirmed that lack of access to secured, reasonable, and well-timed abortion care causes threats to the intended persons throughout their lives.

Causes Of Medical Abortion
Having a medical abortion is vastly a personal verdict based on the circumstances. 

Someone may prefer to have a medical abortion because they’re concerned about passing through a challenging economic situation (which wouldn’t allow them to take care of the baby effectively) or even hereditary diseases based on personal adjudications.

Health Benefits And Reasons For Abortion
A medical abortion may also be a preference if carrying the pregnancy could be life-threatening. 

Everyone’s situation is unique.

Reaching out to a healthcare provider who understands medical conditions and healthcare needs can help you weigh your options.

Precautions: When Can Someone Get A Medical Abortion?
It is medically recommended that abortion should be conceded at an early stage. 

It was recorded that most victorious abortions are carried out at an early stage. For example, over half of all abortions conducted across the world were medical abortions.

 This means that most people who choose to terminate a pregnancy do so in the early stage.

What Are The Effects Of Abortion
Vaginal bleeding and cramping are the principal side effects.

 While the heaviest bleeding typically occurs for several hours, it may cause period-like bleeding for several days afterward.

What Are The Risks Of A Medical Abortion?
Medical abortions are measured as safe and effective. 

Complications are sporadic, but it is nuts and bolts to take all medications as prescribed because skipping the recommendation can pose health issues.

How Long Does It Take To Recover From Abortion?
How long does it take to recuperate from a medical abortion fully?
Recovery times diverge. One may resume usual activities within a day or two, but recovery isn’t always just physical. 

You may experience various emotions, from relief to sadness, stress, or guilt. These feelings are normal, but it may be helpful to consult a health professional, like a therapist, about your feelings.

When To Have Sex After Abortion?
It is prudent to wait at least two to three weeks to delve into intercourse following a medical abortion. This is to prevent vaginal infections. 

When To Get Pregnant Again After An Abortion?
According to UNICEF,  “after abortion, one can get pregnant again within two weeks after the abortion.” However, it is medically best to space the duration for up to a month.


In conclusion,  abortion could be a life-saving mechanism. It should be accurately betrothed, following appropriate channels to be set in place. 

If it is precisely worked out, it will no longer be a thing of disquiet across the world despite the people and their views, religiously and socially.
