Below is a video taken near the border between Tari and Kandep. It features a small cave believed to be filled with pure natural gas. The cave is quite eerie, and it is said that if a match is lit inside, the natural gas will ignite and produce a continuous flame.

This area is rich in natural resources, including oil, gas, and coal, with significant energy deposits located in and around this region. The natural gas in this cave is part of the abundant, everlasting energy sources in this land.

The Defence Force is doing its job in an extremely difficult situation. The road in Mulitaka is not just for the locals it is a lifeline for the Porgera Mine, which provides jobs, income, and economic stability for Enga Province and Papua New Guinea.

Since the landslide, the PNGDF has tried over and over again to reason with the locals, asking them to peacefully solve the issue and clear the road. But what happens? They keep blocking it, ignoring all efforts to negotiate and move forward.

Enough is enough! The Defence Force is not the enemy they are trying to restore order and ensure progress for the entire country. But if the locals won’t listen, if they continue to disrupt, block the road, and act as if they are above the law, then the Defence Force must act decisively. If it takes machine guns, bombs, or even airstrikes to clear the road, then that is what must happen. You cannot let a few people hold back the development and welfare of an entire province and country.

Enga mulitaka and Pogera people, please change. This behavior is not helping anyone it is destroying the future for your children, your communities, and your province. The Defence Force has tried to work with you, but you leave them no choice. It’s time to end this madness.

Pictures: The PNGDF fires a machine gun at civilians who are blocking the road

22/01/2025

This footage has emerged today of the PNG Defense Force using a MAG 58 war machine gun and firing at civilians and youth boys . This has resulted in a violent and dangerous gun battle between Defense and locals, likely causing multiple casualties. The incident occurred in Mulitaka, a landslide location in Enga Province.

A state of emergency should be declared immediately. The Defense Force must not use such excessive and lethal force with such high powered machine gun to disperse civilians. Such actions will only escalate the situation further and lead to more unrest rather than restoring order.

Scola, a deaf and mute mother who faced heartbreaking challenges during childbirth. Traveling alone, she was flown to the hospital by Samaritan Aviation in the rural parts of East sepik province, where nurses safely delivered her stillborn child. Despite the tragic loss, we thank God for saving her life and ensuring she received the care she needed during this difficult time.

The government should consider increasing funding for rural aviation services like Samaritan Aviation. These organizations play a crucial role in serving rural communities, providing life saving assistance to those in remote and underprivileged areas who might otherwise lack access to essential healthcare.

Because corruption and nepotism are well recognised in public offices in these locations, the government must directly support these aviation companies in order to benefit the general people.

Sonie Jack, a five-year-old girl from Kulkie, has a deep love for dressing in traditional attire. One day, a group of tourists from Russia visited the Kulkie United Tourism and Culture Center. Excited by their arrival, Sonie decided to join them dressed in her traditional clothing.

The tourists were delighted by her presence and enjoyed taking photos with her. They even commented that if such a young girl was so passionate about embracing her culture, Papua New Guinea’s traditions would remain vibrant and active for another 50 years or more.

Indeed, our tradition is our identity.

A young man from Sepik , whose father is a police officer, went to Five Mile today with three other boys. They broke into a trade store and tried to steal money and goods. However, the store owner and her relatives, who are from Enga, apprehended them, and his three partners fled while he was captured. They told him to provide the names and whereabouts of the other three suspects, but he refused, so they burned and beat him.

The police must go there right away to five mile because the Engans are torturing this young man by burning him.

Life is difficult for all of us, and if you criminals believe you can get away with it, you will be dealt with. If they cannot have the posion to make you testicle grow larger, they have the power to do other things to you.

K50 million will be used to expand the City Wardens.

Aside from the Marape ROSO Government assistance programme, the government is also proposing to spend approximately K50 million on school leavers who choose to become city wardens.

So far, the city wardens have done an excellent job of minimizing social concerns in the city; therefore, the government intends to create and spread this initiative to other large cities and towns across the country.

Young unemployed males must join to get paid, combat crime, and keep the community secure.

Famous Social Media Personality Arrested for Smear Campaign Against Lottery Company

NCD Metropolitan Superintendent Silva Sika confirmed the arrest of Marion Taule, 29, from Matupit, East New Britain, a well-known social media personality in PNG, famously known as "Maria." She was charged under the Cybercrime Act and detained at Boroko Police Station after No. 1 Lotto filed a complaint against her.

No. 1 Lotto accused her of spreading a fake poster on social media, claiming the company was operating illegally. The company strongly denied the allegations, explaining it is fully licensed by the National Gaming Control Board. They described the campaign as a scam intended to damage their reputation and business operations.

Superintendent Sika reminded businesses and individuals to respect PNG’s laws, warning that anyone spreading false information or engaging in smear campaigns will face legal action. He urged the public to avoid participating in scams or sharing unverified claims, as such actions harm businesses and public trust.

The government has introduced free education this year, covering elementary, primary, and secondary schools. However, parents may still need to pay project fees or uniform costs. This is a great initiative, but what about tertiary institutions? Thank you Marape-Rosso Government for this excellent idea!

Developing News: Conflicting Reports on Police Incident

There are conflicting reports about a recent incident involving police officers. The police hierarchy in the provinces and Port Moresby has not yet clarified the details. According to alternative accounts, the police officers from Wabag MS11 traveled without the knowledge or permission of the Provincial Police Commander (PPC) Wabag. They escorted individuals to Hela and Koroba without notifying PPC Hela. On their return through Southern Highlands Province, they did not consult with PPC Mendi as required by protocol.

It is believed that the officers were intoxicated and opened fire at a group of boys gambling at Mt. Fire, injuring two boys immediately. While trying to escape, the officers were speeding, and their vehicle overturned at Timipa village. A police officer was found dead in the accident. The PPC confirmed that no one shot the policeman.

As far as anyone is concerned, this part of Mendi, Southern Highlands, is peaceful. The big question is why an angry mob would attack and shoot police officers or even beat them. We all need to ask: there is a reason for everything.

This could be true due to the fact that alcohol bottles were found inside the car. It raises the question of why people would attack the police for no good reason. If the officers were shot, they must have done something wrong. If they killed two individuals, it is a serious crime, and that’s why the angry mob attacked them.

The situation remains under investigation, and further details are awaited from the police authorities.

Incident Report: Mendi (14/01/25, 11:00-11:30 PM)

On the night of January 14, 2025, four police officers (S/Constable David Poke, Constable Simon Kewa, Constable Harry Gorano, and the late Constable Noah Biape) and two students were traveling from Tari to Mendi, then toward Tambul on their way to Wabag. About 7 km from Tente Junction, they were attacked.

The late Constable Noah Biape, who was driving, was shot by someone from higher ground. The bullet went through his neck and exited through the side of the vehicle. He died instantly.

The three remaining officers fired shots to scare off the attackers. Since none of them could drive, they asked one of the students to drive. They placed Constable Biape's body in the back and tried to escape. As they fled, another vehicle full of armed attackers chased them. The student driver, scared and inexperienced in such a situation, lost control of the vehicle, causing it to roll several times off the road into nearby bushes.

The attackers reached the crash site and fired at the group.

Constable Harry Gorano broke both legs (one small bone in the left leg and a large bone in the right leg) and also suffered knife wounds to his head.

Constable Simon Kewa was caught by the attackers, beaten with sticks and knives, and suffered a broken bone above his left ankle. His tendon was also severed.

Both officers lost their weapons to the attackers.

Senior Constable David Poke hid with his weapon and stayed safe. He later came out unharmed when the rescue team arrived.

The two injured officers are recovering at Mendi General Hospital and waiting to be airlifted to Hagen for further treatment. The body of Constable Biape will also be transported.The situation is now under control with the support of 1 ARPIR Alpha, and investigations are ongoing.

When his girlfriend was on her period, he went to the store, bought her pads, and brought them home. When she leaked, he even helped clean the blood. He also documented his whole journey to inspire others.

According to him ; This is a reminder for all men , don’t let outdated beliefs mislead you. Helping in situations like this doesn’t make you weak. It shows you are responsible and mature. Men should never feel ashamed of doing these things.
