Actor Threatens To Lead Mass Boycott Of Al Jazeera Over Article Denying ‘Christian Genocide’ In Nigeria.

Okechukwu’s intervention came after Al Jazeera published an opinion article by Gimba Kakanda, Senior Special Assistant to the President on Research and Analytics, on October 2, 2025.

Nigerian actor and media consultant Joseph Chidi Okechukwu, also known as J. C. Okechukwu, has threatened to lead a mass boycott of Qatar-based global news network Al Jazeera after the outlet published an opinion piece denying that Christians in Nigeria are the victims of a coordinated, faith-targeted extermination.

Okechukwu’s intervention came after Al Jazeera published an opinion article by Gimba Kakanda, Senior Special Assistant to the President on Research and Analytics, on October 2, 2025.

The Al Jazeera piece argued that claims of a “Christian genocide” mischaracterise Nigeria’s complex security crises and risk inflaming divisions.

The controversy has played out publicly on social media, where Okechukwu used his X account to issue a direct challenge to the broadcaster and to the author of the piece.

“Hi @AlJazeera World if you don't take this post down and tender unreserved apology to the grieving Christian faithfuls in Nigeria, we will carry out a massive boycott campaign the likes of which you've never seen before,” he wrote.

Okechukwu accused the network of a double standard in its global reporting, saying, “It is such a shame that you guys had your global viewers glued to your TV as you constantly screamed genocide over Israel’s actions in Gaza, only to turn around and deny the genocide of Christians in Nigeria that has gone on for more than a decade, which you’ve never reported.”

He also cited casualty figures, asking: “There are reports that about 70,100 Palestinians were killed and the whole world unanimously called it a genocide. In Nigeria, Christian deaths has since surpassed 125,000 and counting and you claim there’s no Christian Genocide?

Israel Halts Gaza Aid, Launches New Strikes After Accusing Hamas Of Violating Ceasefire.

Israel has launched a new wave of air strikes in southern Gaza and suspended humanitarian aid deliveries into the territory, accusing Hamas of carrying out attacks in “blatant violation” of the ongoing ceasefire agreement.

An Israeli military spokesperson confirmed late Sunday that the strikes targeted what the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) described as “terrorist infrastructure” in Rafah and other parts of southern Gaza.

“Hamas carried out multiple attacks against Israeli forces beyond the yellow line, the area our troops have withdrawn to in accordance with phase one of the US-brokered deal,” the spokesperson said.

“This is a bold violation of the ceasefire, and we will respond firmly.”

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has reportedly ordered defence and security officials to “act forcefully against terrorist targets in the Gaza Strip.”

In a swift response, Hamas denied any involvement in the alleged attacks and accused Israel of breaking the agreement.

“We affirm our full commitment to implementing everything that was agreed upon, foremost among which is the ceasefire in all areas of the Gaza Strip,” Hamas said in a statement.

“We are unaware of any events or clashes taking place in the Rafah area… Contact with our remaining groups there has been cut off since the resumption of war in March of this year.”

Netanyahu said the Gaza war will continue until Hamas is disarmed and Gaza demilitarized. His comments came after Hamas handed over two more hostage bodies under a U.S.-brokered ceasefire. Israel has tied reopening the Rafah crossing to the return of all hostages, while aid efforts in Gaza remain difficult amid ongoing devastation.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned on Saturday that the war in Gaza would not be over until Hamas was disarmed and the Palestinian territory demilitarised.

President Donald Trump said Wednesday that he would consider allowing Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to resume military action in Gaza if Hamas refuses to uphold its end of the ceasefire deal, telling CNN that Israeli forces could return to the streets “as soon as I say the word.”

Islamic cleric, Sheikh Ahmad Gumi, has renewed his call for the Federal Government to initiate peace talks with bandits, insisting that dialogue remains the most effective route to achieving lasting security in Nigeria.

In a Facebook post on Monday, Gumi referenced the recent peace deal between Israel and Hamas as proof that even long-standing conflicts can be resolved through negotiation.

According to him, if the United States could broker peace between Israel and Hamas—two groups once at bitter odds, then Nigeria should also be able to engage its own armed groups in dialogue.

“Peace between Israel and Hamas, whom they call terrorists, was brokered by the USA. Who says peace can’t be made with terrorists? Make peace with bandits and let us have peace,” Gumi wrote.

The Kaduna-based cleric, who has long advocated for engagement with non-state armed groups, reiterated that meaningful dialogue is key to ending the violence that has plagued many parts of northern Nigeria.

Trump Admits Doubts About Making Heaven, Says He’s Tried to Make Life Better for Many.

U.S. President Donald Trump has once again expressed uncertainty about his chances of making heaven, admitting he is not confident about his eternal fate.

Speaking with reporters aboard Air Force One on Sunday, Trump said he doubted that his deeds would earn him a place in paradise.
“I don’t think there’s anything that’s going to get me into heaven,” he confessed. “I’m not sure I’ll make it, but I’ve made life a lot better for a lot of people. I don’t think I’m heaven-bound.”

The president also reiterated his belief that he could have prevented Russia’s invasion of Ukraine if the 2020 election had not been, in his words, “rigged.”
“Millions of people are dead because of a crooked election,” Trump alleged, describing his successor’s administration as “incompetent.”

Commenting on the ongoing conflict in the Middle East, Trump said the Israel–Gaza crisis had become “much harder to resolve” under the Democrat-led government.

This is not the first time Trump has linked his spiritual reflections to global peace efforts. In August, during a phone interview on Fox & Friends, he stated that one of his main goals for a second term would have been to broker international peace agreements as a way to “get to heaven.”
“I want to try to get to heaven if possible,” he said at the time. “I’m hearing that I’m not doing well.”

“I’m Not Sure I’ll Make Heaven, But I’ve Made Life Better for Many” — Trump Speaks on Salvation and Global Conflicts


Former U.S. President Donald Trump has once again expressed concern about his eternal destiny, admitting he is unsure of making it to heaven despite his belief that he has made life better for many people.

Speaking aboard Air Force One on Sunday, Trump told reporters that he does not feel confident about his salvation.

“I’m not sure I’m going to be able to make heaven, but I’ve made life a lot better for a lot of people,” he said. “I think I’m not heaven-bound.”


Trump also claimed that the Russia-Ukraine war could have been avoided if the 2020 U.S. presidential election had not been “rigged.”

“Millions of people are dead because of a crooked election,” he said, accusing his successor and the previous administration of incompetence.


The former president further criticized the current government for its handling of the Israel-Gaza crisis, saying the conflict became harder to resolve under the Democrat-led administration.

In August, Trump had also revealed his desire to secure global peace deals during a potential second term — a move he said could help him “make heaven.”

During a Fox & Friends phone interview, he lamented the devastating impact of the Russia-Ukraine conflict and stressed the need for a permanent ceasefire to save lives.

“I want to try to get to heaven if possible… I’m hearing that I’m not doing well,” Trump had said, hinting at his hope for divine approval through his peace efforts.


While Trump’s remarks continue to stir mixed reactions globally, they reflect his ongoing attempts to balance his political ambitions with his personal reflections on faith and morality.

US President Donald Trump declared Sunday that the “war is over in Gaza” as he headed on a high-stakes peace trip to Israel and Egypt.

October 7 Massacre a ‘Mistake That Cost Iran Dearly,’ - Iran Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei Says.

In a stunning reversal of rhetoric, an Iranian newspaper closely aligned with Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has described Hamas’s October 7 attack on Israel as a “grave mistake” that inflicted serious damage on Iran’s regional influence. According to a report by The Jerusalem Post on Sunday, Oct. 12, 2025, the statement marks one of the first public acknowledgments within Iran’s ruling establishment that the Gaza war has weakened, rather than strengthened, Tehran’s strategic position in the Middle East.

In an editorial published this week, the Islamic Republic newspaper overseen by a representative of Khamenei sharply departed from the regime’s long-standing narrative that celebrated the attack as a victory for the so-called “Axis of Resistance.” “Contrary to many opinions and analyses, the ‘Al-Aqsa Flood’ operation was a mistake,” the paper wrote, referring to Hamas’s coordinated assault that killed and kidnapped thousands inside Israel on October 7, 2023.

The editorial went on to argue that the consequences of the attack have been overwhelmingly negative for Iran and its network of allied militias and governments across the region. It specifically cited Syria’s apparent distancing from Tehran as one of the most damaging developments to result from the conflict. “Syria’s departure from the Axis of Resistance and its shift toward alignment with the United States and Israel is one of the most damaging developments of the past two years,” the paper stated, calling it a “direct outcome” of Hamas’s offensive.

The tone of the piece stands in sharp contrast to previous statements by Iranian officials, including Khamenei himself, who had hailed the October 7 assault as a “historic victory” and a “turning point in the struggle against Israel.” Iranian state media and military commanders had also praised Hamas for “changing the balance of power” in the region.

Khalil al-Hayya, head of Hamas’s negotiating team, says they received US and mediator guarantees that an agreement on the first phase of President Trump's ceasefire plan means Israel's war in Gaza “has ended completely.”

Venezuela’s Maria Corina Machado Wins Nobel Peace Prize, Beating President Trump’s Speculated Bid.

Venezuelan opposition leader and pro-democracy activist Maria Corina Machado has been awarded the 2024 Nobel Peace Prize, the Norwegian Nobel Committee announced on Friday.

Machado was recognised for her “tireless efforts in advancing democratic rights for Venezuelans and her unwavering struggle for a peaceful transition from dictatorship to democracy,” said Jorgen Watne Frydnes, chair of the Nobel Committee, in Oslo.

The committee praised her courage, noting that despite being forced into hiding, she chose to remain in Venezuela, a decision that has “inspired millions.” It added, “Democracy survives because of those who refuse to stay silent, even when the risks are grave.”

There had been speculation that former U.S. President Donald Trump might receive the prize, following his role in brokering a Gaza ceasefire deal earlier this week. Trump had previously claimed credit for “stopping seven wars,” though his assertions have been widely disputed.

Speaking at the UN last month, Trump remarked, “Everyone says I should get the Nobel Peace Prize,” while Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu revealed in July that he had nominated the former president.

However, Nina Graeger, director of the Peace Research Institute Oslo, told Sky News that the Gaza agreement likely came too late for consideration this year. She noted that if the deal results in lasting peace, it could strengthen Trump’s chances for next year’s award.

The Nobel Committee described Machado, 58, as “one of the most extraordinary examples of civilian courage in Latin America in recent times.” Although barred from contesting Venezuela’s last presidential election, she threw her support behind opposition candidate Edmundo Gonzalez.

Israel’s President, Isaac Herzog, has commended U.S. President Donald Trump for his role in brokering a peace agreement between Israel & Hamas to end the Gaza conflict, saying Trump merits the Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts.

“There is no doubt that he deserves the Nobel Peace Prize for this,” Herzog wrote on X on Thursday, describing the deal as a chance “to mend, to heal & to open a new horizon of hope for our region.”

Trump had earlier announced that indirect talks in Egypt had led to a breakthrough. Under the first phase of the U.S.-backed peace plan, all hostages held in Gaza are to be freed, while Israeli troops will pull back to an agreed boundary. Hamas has confirmed its acceptance of the deal.

Speaking recently at the UN General Assembly, Trump boasted that he had already ended several wars since taking office earlier this year & should be recognised with the Nobel Peace Prize.

The Nobel Committee is expected to reveal this year’s laureate on Friday.

'MOVE FAST': President Trump warned of "massive bloodshed" if Hamas failed to agree to a peace deal with Israel, minutes before the 6 p.m. ET deadline passed.
"These talks have been very successful, and proceeding rapidly," Trump said. "The technical teams will again meet Monday, in Egypt, to work through and clarify the final details."

There’s genocide against poor Nigerians, Muslims, Christians, children – Sowore tells U.S govt .

Human rights activist and African Action Congress (AAC) presidential candidate, Omoyele Sowore, has accused both the United States and the Nigerian government of hypocrisy in their response to the ongoing killings across the country.

Sowore said Nigeria’s violence is caused by bad governance and insecurity, not religion, warning against portraying it as persecution of Christians or Muslims.

He was reacting to renewed calls by some U.S. lawmakers, urging Washington to label Nigeria as a “Country of Particular Concern” (CPC) over alleged Christian persecution.

According to him, such claims are misleading and fail to reflect the real situation in Nigeria.

“There’s genocide against the poor, against Muslims, against Christians, against children. Trying to separate it by religion is dishonest,” Sowore said.

He argued that Nigeria does not identify victims by religion, saying, “The country doesn’t check who carries a Bible or a Koran before counting the dead.”

Sowore also criticised the U.S. for ignoring similar crises elsewhere.

“Why is the U.S silent about Gaza, where Muslims are being killed by Israel? That’s international hypocrisy,” he said.

No remorse or regret in our action murdering 1,200 Israelis on October 7th— Hamas leader, Hamad says.

According to the Jerusalem Post report on Friday September 26, 2025, Hamas political bureau member Ghazi Hamad has expressed no regret for the October 7 attacks on Israel, which resulted in nearly 1,200 deaths and over 250 hostages. In a CNN interview published on Friday, Hamad claimed the attacks targeted only military objectives and that civilians were not intentionally kidnapped.

He argued that the operation has advanced the Palestinian cause, citing increased international support and condemnations of Israel at the UN General Assembly. Hamad stated, "You know what the benefit of [October 7] is now? …If you look at the (United Nations) General Assembly yesterday, when about 194 people opened their eyes and looked at the atrocity, the brutality of Israel and all of them, they condemned Israel. We waited for this moment for 77 years."

Hamad showed no remorse for Palestinian civilian losses in Gaza, asserting that Palestinians "are proud to sacrifice martyrs." When presented with footage of Gazans criticizing Hamas, he refused to engage fully. On hostages, he denied using them as human shields, claiming they are treated according to "Islamic principles," countering Israeli accusations. Another Hamas official, Osama Hamdan, linked recent state recognitions of Palestine to the attacks.

The context of the October 7 assaults involves Hamas's invasion from Gaza, leading to widespread violence and Israel's subsequent military response. Hamad's stance defends the attacks as strategically beneficial, despite the devastation in Gaza. Negotiations with the US under President Trump have stalled, with Hamad accusing the US of involvement in an assassination attempt on him, eroding trust in mediators.

Hamad's unapologetic position highlights Hamas's defiant narrative amid ongoing conflict, potentially complicating peace efforts. It underscores tensions in mediation and the human cost on both sides. The interview reveals deep divisions, with implications for international diplomacy and the prospects of a ceasefire.

US Reportedly Revokes Visa of Colombian President Gustavo Petro Over Pro-Palestinian Protest Remarks

The United States has revoked the visa of Colombian President Gustavo Petro following remarks he made during a pro-Palestinian protest in New York on Friday.

In a post on X, the US State Department said Petro’s “reckless and incendiary actions” prompted the decision. Addressing demonstrators outside the UN headquarters in Manhattan, Petro called for the creation of a global armed force to liberate Palestinians, saying it “must be stronger than the United States.”

He went further by urging American soldiers to defy President Donald Trump’s orders: “Do not point your guns at people. Disobey Trump’s orders. Obey the orders of humanity,” he declared in Spanish.

It was unclear if Petro remained in New York afterward, as his office and Colombia’s foreign ministry did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

The Trump administration has tightened its stance on pro-Palestinian voices even as countries such as France, Britain, Australia, and Canada have formally recognized a Palestinian state, moves that have strained relations with Israel and Washington.

Petro, Colombia’s first leftist president and a strong critic of Israel’s war in Gaza, had earlier accused Trump of being “complicit in genocide” during his UN General Assembly address. He also called for criminal proceedings against the US over missile strikes on boats suspected of drug trafficking in the Caribbean.
