The TAROK Old Man. By PONSEL LAR

*In shadows deep, an old man stands,
His leopard friend, with gentle claws.
Beneath the moon's soft, watchful gaze,
They wander through forgotten ways.

In times of war, when fear abounds,
He beats his drum, its rhythm sounds.
A melody of peace unfurls,
Across the land, to distant worlds.

The leopard prowls, with silent grace,
As drumbeats weave a sacred space.
Communities, once torn apart,
Now find solace in their beating heart.

Through valleys deep and mountains high,
Their music soothes both earth and sky.
For in this bond, where wild meets sage,
Lies the power to turn war's page.

So let the drums of peace resound,
With every beat, let hope be found.
In this tale of man and beast,
May harmony and love increase.

ART CONCEPT FROM TORN EDGE STUDIOS

I submit that since the woman in question has been thoroughly and unequivocally exonerated and found to be indeed on the side of truth,the searchlight should for a moment be shifted to the pastor in question,the very reverred Pst.Dr. Paul Enenche.First of,the toga of infallibility erroneously conferred on pastors is a regret.Fallibility is a common denominator amongst mortals, including clergy,from the Pope to the least man of the cloth.The rush to conclusion on the guilt of the woman based on the verdict of pastor Enenche without any empirical proof is an indictment on our collective reluntance to find and search out truth for ourselves.if as a Christian,the only truth you know is the one your pastor told you,then you are very vulnerable and liable to be deceived.

By

Kichime Goyang Gotau, FCILG USA.

facts on the area known today, as Plateau state, among others, as at 1934...

With Prefatory Note By A.H.M Kirk-greene; St. Anthony's College, Oxford.

Ayu - 2624

Miscellaneous - 1012

Total Unit Tribal Population in Southern Division as at 1934: 71611

Note Again:
That Jos Township Alone had a total Miscellaneous population of: 2131. Which is comparatively much.

Therefore, as at 1934 Plateau Province had a Total Estimated Population of: 553,134.

It is important to know that the population growth rate of each tribal unit, and those within the miscellaneous group is/arev informed by the cultural & sundry factors such as birth rate & death rate etc.

Caveate:
Depending on this statistics of about a century old for a development plan, political Strategy design and or political decision (public mobilization and policy) road map may be Risky...

However, If a poll Analyst uses this figures for a synthesis of the progress that occurred among the tribal units of the erstwhile Plateau Province, it will be logical.

There are similar variations in the tribal units of other older Northern Provinces such as Kontagora Province (formed in 1920); Nassarawa Province (1920) Nupe Province (1920) & Ilorin Province (1921).

This Gazetteers has other historical resources in Vol.I (The Hausa Emirates), Vol. II (The Eastern Kingdoms) & Vol. III (The Central Kingdoms) among sundry documented facts found at the world's largest catalog of gazetted facts, Nigeria's National Library, National and state level archives and allied ministries and or DA's.

Any other ethic group that says they’re from Plateau are only settlers. Settlers are very much welcome to the state too, long as they maintain the “Home of peace and tourism” attitude.

People go to clubs with no money but still go back home drunk but if you go to church without eating you will come back hungry and frustrated as you left.
No one to help and assist you.
It will hardly bother a brother in christ to ask if you have eaten or not.
After clubbing folks leave with like 6 people inside one car, dropping everyone at their different spots, promising where the party will continue the next Day. They care...in their emptiness. There is charity.
There is even a designated driver...
But go to Church even during this Holy Week. You will see beautiful cars leaving with only one driver inside without carrying fellow church people going in the same direction as them...
Church folk dont have love, even though they smile and play nice, appearing like Holy fellows of Jesus, their hearts in most cases are filthy.
Drunkards have shown me more kindness than most people who claim to be Godly.
Prostitutes and those we call evil have more empathy than these clowns with speakers and loud music calling the name of their God all over.
Waka di lie.
This world indeed needs healing.
We all need to make amends so the body of christ will not be redicled 🙏.
