However, GTBank does not appear to have this additional security measure. This is a matter of serious concern to me because all my other banks require such authentication, and none of them has this apparent security loophole @gtbank @gtbank_help

A password, PIN, or security code should be required before an account holder can carry out any mobile SMS transaction, especially for airtime and data purchases, using the phone number linked to the bank account from which the transaction is to be made @gtbank @gtbank_help

@ElonMuskNews47 I would buy a digital techy machine that can enable and empower users such as petty traders, artisans and farmers diversify their savings into investment portfolios for a higher yield or returns.

In April, 12 outstanding female journalists from across Nigeria began their journey with the ReportWomen! Female Reporters' Leadership Programme (#FRLP). They trained and told powerful stories about women and girls.

Leadership in Nigeria’s newsrooms has historically been male dominated. The WSCIJ 2024 report, Who Leads the Newsrooms and News? shows women occupy just 26.9% of management roles and 24.2% of board positions with an even wider gap in print media.

Time to Stand Out Or Be Counted Among the Rest

When Fr. Hyacinth Alia, a priest of the Catholic Diocese of Makurdi, Nigeria chose to run for the office of the governor of Benue State in 2023, I watched with cautious hope. I was not overly excited, not because I doubted his capacity to lead, but because Nigerian politics has long been a murky terrain: dirty, messy, and often devoid of conscience.

Truly, politics may be dirty, but abandoning it to the corrupt will not clean it. That is why we need ‘good’ men and women who will enter the system and refuse to be swallowed by it; people who are not afraid to lose power for the sake of truth; people who dare to be different from the rest. This was my expectation of a priest-governor - that he would not blend into the silence and indifference that define much of our political leadership.

But the recent massacre in Benue and the inability of the governor to act decisively to stop these killings, speak volumes. For me, it is a painful echo of the same pattern we have seen from the past governors and other Nigerian politicians. But from a priest-governor, we expect more because we want him to be different.

Perhaps his hands are tied as many have said. Perhaps the system is heavy. But leadership demands that in moments of great suffering, silence must break - even if it comes at a personal or political cost. This is where true leadership is tested - in the willingness to sacrifice comfort for conviction, popularity for principle.

Nigeria cannot be healed by more of the same. We need leaders who will dare to be different, who will speak when it is dangerous, who will stand up when others sit in silence. Being different is costly. It comes with resistance, isolation, betrayal, and often suffering. But that is where leadership becomes real - when service becomes sacrifice

To our dear priest brother and governor, this is the moment to prove that you are not like the others. Let your priesthood inform your politics. At your priestly ordination, you were already immolated. When you chose to run for political office in defiance of the Church’s law, you already risked it all. There is nothing else to lose. You must choose your people over your party. This is the time to stand out or be counted among the rest.

WHY THE CHURCH FORBIDS PRIESTS FROM PARTISAN POLITICS

The Catholic Church was wise when it forbade priests from participating in partisan politics (Can. 285, #3). The Church’s position on this matter is not arbitrary; it is rooted in a deep understanding of the priestly vocation, the nature of politics, and the mission of the Church.

A priest is ordained to be a shepherd of souls, a sign of unity, and a spiritual father to all - regardless of tribe, party, or ideology. The identity of the priest is configured to Christ the Good Shepherd, not to any political ideology or party.

Partisan politics, by its very nature, is divisive. It demands loyalty to a party line, often at the expense of truth and moral clarity. When a priest takes sides politically, he risks alienating those who look to him for pastoral care and moral guidance. His prophetic voice, meant to challenge all forms of injustice, may be muffled by party loyalty or political pressure.

The mission of the priest is not to govern states but to form consciences. The blending of sacramental authority with state power can confuse the faithful and damage the credibility of the Church’s impartial witness. It is even worse in some climes like Nigeria. where politics is deeply flawed, with systemic corruption and violence.

The Church in her wisdom made that prohibition in order to safeguard the integrity of the priesthood, the universality of the Church, and the clarity of her moral witness. It preserves the priest for what he is called to be: a servant of the Gospel, not an agent of the state.
