The governorship candidate of the All Progressives Grand Alliance in the November 6 poll in Anambra State, Prof Chukwuma Soludo, has unveiled his manifesto.
The former Governor of the Central Bank, who presented his his contract with the people of the state if elected at the Dr Alex Ekwueme Square in Awka, the state capital on Saturday, said no candidate in the race was his match.
He said his target was to meet the one million votes mark in the election.
He said, &#8220;I thank APGA for the ticket it gave me on June 23, and the over 50 support groups who for years continued to clamour for me to aspire for the governorship position.
&#8220;They have been demanding for me to come and run, some of them are people across party lines, and some who are not even politicians have been calling me and saying that after the tenure of Governor Willie Obiano, the best thing that can happen to Anambra is for me to come and continue. Anambra people want APGA to continue.
&#8220;We will compete and contest for every vote and we will not take your votes for granted. Our target is to reach the one million-vote mark. There are people who know that even if they carry a gun, Anambra people will not vote for them. They are carrying money around and buying expired politicians.
&#8220;Anambra is APGA, and APGA is Anambra. Anambra is not Imo. They say they want to connect us to the centre, and it is idiocy for them to talk about going to the centre because I&#8217;m already in the centre. I serve in this government (federal), so when they talk about going to centre, they are talking about coming to meet us. I&#8217;m already at the centre and I go in and out of Aso Rock, so when they talk about going to the centre, they are coming to meet me, because I&#8217;m there already.&#8221;
									
										
											
											
												
											
											
											
												
											
										
									
								
&#8220;I told Anambra people that on the day of the flag off, we will unveil and launch the Anambra manifesto. This manifesto is one that envisions Anambra as a five star destination to live, work and relax in. We want Anambra to be liveable. My manifesto with ndi Anambra is my contract with them.
&#8220;I&#8217;m not going to learn on the job. I will hit the ground running. We will build a land where no child born here will go out to look for better future in Lagos or Abuja.
&#8220;After this speech, my manifesto will be shared and uploaded online, and this is my contract with you. I have looked at the people contesting, and with every sense of humility, I don&#8217;t think they can match me.
&#8220;They can be governor because they are qualified and the constitution says if you have a school certificate, you can be governor, but for those who forged their certificates, I do not think they can be governor.
&#8220;We are not making empty promises, the things we have here (manifesto) have been thought over by me and they are achievable, not the people who contracted people to concoct something that looks like manifesto for them,&#8221; Soludo said.
Speaking, the state governor, Willie Obiano said Anambra people had two choices to make in the upcoming election; &#8220;To continue in the progress we are making or to go back to Egypt&#8221;.
&#8220;We have fake certificate holders, we have debtors, who are running for governor, but they can&#8217;t govern. You all must vote for qualified fellows like Soludo. He has the reach, contact and cerebral to lead Anambra. He knows where to find the money, much more than I do.
						
							
								
								
									
									
								
								
								
							
						
					
&#8220;I have no doubt that we will win with a landslide. We have no competition. We have done well, we have been able to deliver for Anambra. We have built 153 roads and 34 are ongoing. I know Soludo will do well, if he will not, I would not have brought him out. The former administration did well, I did better and the Soludo administration will be the best.&#8221;

Fireworks heralded Anthony Joshua and Oleksandr Usyk&#8217;s heavyweight fight in London on Saturday (today).
Usyk was booed as he emerges into the stadium wearing what looks like a space helmet obscuring his face completely.

However, huge roars from the crowd herald the arrival of Britain&#8217;s heavyweight star.
Joshua pauses on top of a stage featuring fireworks and giant letters spelling &#8220;AJ&#8221; that are on fire.
The song &#8220;No Easy Way Out&#8221; from the &#8220;Rocky IV&#8221; soundtrack plays as Joshua shadowboxes for the crowd. This man is a true entertainer.
Anthony Joshua earlier said he had no intention of vacating any of his heavyweight belts.
The British boxer will put his WBA, WBO and IBF heavyweight belts on the line against the WBO mandatory challenger from Ukraine in London on Saturday.
									
										
											
											
												
											
											
											
												
											
										
									
								
The unbeaten Usyk is a former undisputed world cruiserweight champion and could pose a tricky test for Joshua, with his skillset rated among the best in any weight category.

But Joshua maintains he is not intimidated by Usyk or any potential opponent.
If the 31-year-old survives his title defence against Usyk, he hopes to finally face British rival and WBC champion Tyson Fury to crown an undisputed champion.
On his part, Usyk is bidding to become the third boxer after Evander Holyfield and David Haye to win world titles at cruiserweight and heavyweight.
The 34-year-old won heavyweight gold at the London 2012 Olympics while Joshua triumphed in the super-heavyweight division.
Usyk said he will continue to respect Joshua, regardless of the outcome of this weekend&#8217;s bout in front of about 68,000 fans at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Before the fight, Joshua weighed in 19 pounds heavier than Usyk.
						
							
								
								
									
									
								
								
								
							
						
					
Britain&#8217;s Joshua, 31, tipped the scales at 240 pounds (109 kilograms), with the Ukrainian challenger coming in at a career-high 221.25 pounds.
The two combatants had an intense stare-down before smiles broke out and Joshua accepted Usyk&#8217;s offer of a handshake.
Each fighter then turned to face the assembled media and a small crowd that had gathered at London&#8217;s O2 Arena, taking turns to flex their muscles, Joshua pointing to Usyk, who then reciprocated.
As well as his weight advantage, Joshua has the edge in height and reach and is favourite with bookmakers, but Usyk&#8217;s movement and overall technical skillset from an awkward southpaw stance have led many seasoned observers to predict a close contest.
Joshua believes he is in the best shape and at the optimum weight to successfully defend his titles.
&#8220;I feel good,&#8221; he told Sky Sports. &#8220;It could fluctuate, go lower, due to the styles of opponents, but I feel good at this weight.
&#8220;Maybe if I&#8217;m fighting a shorter, stronger guy I might bulk up a bit, but I&#8217;ve got a good fighter with his legs, so I&#8217;m going to keep up with his footwork and hand speed and make sure I&#8217;m good right through for the duration.&#8221;

After over a year of holding virtual events, Saturday marked the in-person return of the Kingston Humane Society&#8217;s (KHS) annual Big Paws fundraiser.
&#8220;Losing those events during the pandemic was really, really difficult,&#8221; says KHS Executive Director Gord Hunter. &#8220;This is like a big coming-out party for everybody to be back in person. We&#8217;re just happy to be able to do this and hopefully go forward with more in-person events, because we raise about $80,000 from in-person events.&#8221;
Those donations make a big difference for the organization, as 70 per cent of KHS funding comes from the public.

				Eastern Ontario neonatal animal rescue has been swamped with pet surrenders			</a>
		
	
Hunter says that he&#8217;s seen an 85 per cent jump in the number of animals in their care. Last year at this time, KHS was caring for 133 animals, and as of this week, they have 233 animals in care.
&#8220;Right now we have more animals in care, more animals available for adoption than we&#8217;ve ever had at a single point in time,&#8221; says Hunter. &#8220;Our goal is to make sure we get those animals into forever homes and Kingston has been great and the community has been amazing, not just in supporting events, but in supporting us through adoptions as well.&#8221;
While waiting for adoption, many animals enter foster care.
For some Kingstonians, the pandemic has made fostering a more viable option.

&#8220;I think the pandemic helped in our decision because we were at home,&#8221; says Julia Hale. She and her family are currently fostering a dog with KHS.
&#8220;I&#8217;m a teacher so I was at home more, my husband started working from home, the kids were home. We were just around, so we knew that we could provide the care to a foster that maybe we wouldn&#8217;t have been able to otherwise,&#8221; Hale says.
Savannah Kilpatrick, who has dreams of becoming a veterinarian, started fostering dogs three months ago and is now fostering her second dog, Apollo.
&#8220;When they&#8217;re at home, you get to see them come out of their shell,&#8221; says the 17-year-old. &#8220;You see what they like, what they don&#8217;t like, how they like their routines. And you just really get to see who the dog really is.&#8221;
While donations continue to roll in, the Kingston Humane Society has already confirmed that at least $19,000 was raised at Saturday&#8217;s event. That&#8217;s at least 32 per cent more raised than the last in-person fundraiser in 2019.

The Kingston Humane Society’s flagship fundraising event was held on Saturday. This marks KHS’s first in-person event since the pandemic began.

The British actor expressed confidence that Anthony Joshua will defeat Oleksandr Usyk in their heavyweight encounter in London on Saturday (today).
&#8220;I reckon he&#8217;ll have it in the sixth,&#8221; said Idris Elba.
&#8220;I&#8217;m very confident that AJ has got this one, but it won&#8217;t be easy.
&#8220;He&#8217;s a mate and I&#8217;m proud of him.&#8221;
Joshua is facing a stern test in his bid to record his 25th career win against Oleksandr Usyk, a former undisputed cruiserweight world champion in London on Saturday (today).
Joshua has recorded 24 wins and a loss in 25 bouts since he turned professional in 2013.
That loss came in the form of a massive upset when Andy Ruiz Jr. claimed an against-all-odds victory at Madison Square Garden in New York in 2019.
									
										
											
											
												
											
											
											
												
											
										
									
								
Incidentally, the fight against Usyk is Joshua’s third fight on English soil in the last three years after his wins over Alexander Povetkin at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium in 2018 and Wladimir Klitschko.
Usyk is the second Ukrainian boxer Joshua will be hoping to defeat after he technically knocked out Klitschko at the Wembley Stadium in London, England in 2017.
The 34-year-old Ukrainian on his part has won all his 18 professional fights and Joshua will be the third British fighter that Usyk will face after beating Tony Bellew in November 2018 and Derek Chisora in October 2020.
Joshua and Usyk each won Olympic gold medals at London 2012. Since then, while Joshua has become a two-time heavyweight champion, Usyk won the undisputed cruiserweight title.

The British actor expressed confidence that Anthony Joshua will defeat Oleksandr Usyk in their heavyweight encounter in London on Saturday (today). “I reckon he’ll have it in the sixth,” said Idris Elba. “I’m very confident that AJ has got this one, but it won’t be easy. “He’s a mate and I’m proud of him.” Joshua…

Pele on Saturday praised &#8220;outstanding&#8221; Lionel Messi for breaking his record as the top goal scorer in a South American national team but apologised for the delay in offering his congratulations.
Messi&#8217;s hat-trick in a World Cup qualifier for Argentina against Bolivia on September 9 came just four days after Brazilian legend Pele had undergone surgery for a suspected colon tumour.
&#8220;Hi @leomessi, sorry if I&#8217;m late. However, I didn&#8217;t want to pass up the chance to congratulate you for another record broken earlier this month,&#8221; Pele wrote on Instagram.
&#8220;Your talent when playing soccer is outstanding! I hope you achieve even more, alongside my friends @k.mbappe and @neymarjr (at PSG).&#8221;
Messi surpassed Pele&#8217;s record of 77 international goals and now boasts 79 in his career.
On Friday, Pele&#8217;s daughter said her 80-year-old father has taken &#8220;several steps&#8221; towards recovery after his operation three weeks ago.
&#8220;These last days, he has taken several steps,&#8221; Kely Nascimento said in a message on Instagram with photos of the two of them playing cards, Pele smiling.
									
										
											
											
												
											
											
											
												
											
										
									
								
&#8220;He taught me how to play a card game and he is beating me hands down,&#8221; she added.
On Wednesday, Nascimento had posted a video of Pele singing the anthem of Santos, his former club.
Considered by many to be the greatest footballer of all time, Pele has been in poor health in recent years, and has had various stints in hospital.

Chancellor Angela Merkel on Saturday urged Germans to give her would-be successor Armin Laschet their vote to shape Germany&#8217;s future, in a last-ditch push to shore up his beleaguered campaign 24 hours before Germans vote.
Laschet, 60, has been trailing his Social Democrat challenger Olaf Scholz in the race for the chancellery, although final polls put the gap between them within the margin of error, making the vote one of the most unpredictable in recent years.
Merkel had planned to keep a low profile in the election battle as she prepares to bow out of politics after 16 years in power. But she has found herself dragged into the frantic campaign schedule of the unpopular chairman of her party, Laschet.
In the last week of the campaign, Merkel took Laschet to her constituency by the Baltic coast and on Friday headlined the closing rally gathering the conservatives&#8217; bigwigs in Munich.
Merkel tugged at the heartstrings of Germany&#8217;s predominantly older electorate on Friday, calling on them to keep her conservatives in power for the sake of stability &#8212; a trademark of Germany.
A day before the vote, she had travelled to Laschet&#8217;s hometown and constituency Aachen, a spa city near Germany&#8217;s western border with Belgium and the Netherlands, where he was born and still lives.
&#8220;It is about your future, the future of your children and the future of your parents,&#8221; she said at her last rally before the polls, urging strong mobilisation for her conservative alliance.
									
										
											
											
												
											
											
											
												
											
										
									
								
&#8211; Climate high on agenda &#8211; 
She underlined that climate protection would be a key challenge of the next government, but that this would not be achieved &#8220;simply through rules and regulations.
&#8220;For that we need new technological developments, new procedures, researchers, interested people who think about how that can be done, and people who participate,&#8221; she said.
Laschet is a &#8220;bridge-builder who will get people on board&#8221; in shaping Germany to meet those challenges, she said.
Hundreds of thousands of people had descended on the streets on Friday urging change and greater climate protection, with a leading activist calling Sunday&#8217;s election the vote &#8220;of a century&#8221;.
On Saturday, Swedish campaigner Greta Thunberg told a rally near Germany&#8217;s Garzweiler mine, one of the biggest in Europe, that the elections &#8220;are not going to resolve the crisis, whatever the outcome&#8221;.
&#8220;You&#8217;re going to have to keep mobilising, organising and taking to the streets,&#8221; she said.
With the clock ticking down to the election, Scholz was also staying close to home at the other end of the country to chase down last votes.
						
							
								
								
									
									
								
								
								
							
						
					
Taking questions from voters in his constituency of Potsdam &#8212; a city on the outskirts of Berlin famous for its palaces that once housed Prussian kings, &#8212; Scholz said he was fighting for &#8220;a major change in this country, a new government&#8221; led by him.
He also gave a glimpse of the future government he hopes to lead, saying that &#8220;perhaps it may be enough to, for instance, form a government between the SPD and the Greens&#8221;.
Scholz, currently finance minister in Merkel&#8217;s coalition government, has avoided making mistakes on the campaign trail, and largely won backing as he sold himself as the &#8220;continuity candidate&#8221; after Merkel in place of Laschet.
Described as capable but boring, Scholz has consistently beaten Laschet by wide margins when it comes to popularity.
&#8211; &#8216;Could backfire&#8217; &#8211; 
As election day loomed, Laschet&#8217;s conservatives were closing the gap, with one poll even putting them just one percentage point behind the SPD&#8217;s 26 percent.
Laschet went into the race for the chancellery badly bruised by a tough battle for the conservatives&#8217; chancellor candidate nomination.
Nevertheless, his party enjoyed a substantial lead ahead of the SPD heading into the summer.
				
					
						
						
							
						
						
						
							
						
					
				 
But Laschet was seen chuckling behind President Frank-Walter Steinmeier as he paid tribute to victims of deadly floods in July, an image that would drastically turn the mood against him and his party.
As polls showed the lead widening for the SPD, the conservatives turned to their greatest asset &#8212; the still widely popular Merkel.
Yet roping in the chancellor is not without risks, said political analyst Oskar Niedermayer of Berlin&#8217;s Free University.
&#8220;Merkel is still the most well-liked politician. But the joint appearances can become a problem for Laschet because they are then immediately being compared to each other,&#8221; he said.
&#8220;And it could therefore backfire because people could then think that Merkel is more suitable than Laschet.&#8221;

Supporters gathered in Halifax on Saturday to raise awareness for what they say is a need for Nova Scotia and Canada to implement a <a href="https://www.flyingeze.com/tag/basic-income" target="_blank">basic income</a> program.
&#8220;A basic income is enough money to provide people with support for their basic needs,&#8221; said Mandy Kay-Raining Bird, chair of the Basic Income Group of Nova Scotia. &#8220;It&#8217;s a direct payment from the government to ensure that everyone has sufficient income to participate in society and live with dignity.&#8221;
The concept of a basic income isn&#8217;t new and other provinces in Canada have studied it and introduced basic income pilot projects, like in Manitoba and in Ontario.

				Climate rallies in New Brunswick, Nova Scotia demand action			</a>
		
	
Prince Edward Island has been studying it and in February the province requested co-operation from the federal government to establish a working group to help set up a basic income guarantee program there.
&#8220;What we advocate for is the provincial government and the federal government to work together to ensure the implementation of a basic income. It can&#8217;t be done by the provinces because they don&#8217;t have enough money,&#8221; said Kay-Raining Bird.
Christie Ragan was at the rally, advocating for a universal basic income program.
&#8220;The most vulnerable people are being left out in the cold, literally,&#8221; said Ragan, a single mother who is trying to finish her degree in acupuncture and traditional medicine.

Ragan says the pandemic has put her at least a year behind in her schooling and says it&#8217;s been hard to juggle her school commitments, parenting and a job which she&#8217;s currently out of.
&#8220;I have no savings left, I did have a spousal support settlement from when my marriage ended but it was supposed to last me until after I was finished school and until I could find work but it&#8217;s gone,&#8221; said Ragan.
A basic income would help Ragan pay rent, something she&#8217;s not sure she&#8217;ll be able to do at the end of the month.
&#8220;I can pay my bills and my rent at the end of the month, I can eat, but I can&#8217;t do both,&#8221; said Ragan. &#8220;A basic income would help me out and I could survive on that.&#8221;

Basic Income Nova Scotia says the pandemic has shown that the government has the capacity to act quickly and implement a basic income program and Kay-Raining Bird says it&#8217;s not as radical as some might suggest, pointing to the Canadian Emergency Response Benefit (CERB) which quickly delivered cash to millions of Canadians who were left unemployed by the COVID-19 pandemic.
&#8220;The government identified $2,000 a month as a level that was necessary to meet people&#8217;s basic needs,&#8221; said Kay-Raining Bird. &#8220;But it&#8217;s not a basic income.&#8221;
The rally was attended by a dozen people on Saturday and organizers say they are interested in raising more awareness about the basic income program and want to work with the newly elected Progressive Conservative government to study how the program could work for Nova Scotians.

Supporters gathered in Halifax on Saturday to raise awareness and push the government in Nova Scotia to implement a basic income.

Prince Edward Island&#8217;s chief public health officer is advising residents of the province to avoid travelling off the Island unless their trip is necessary.
In a news release today, Dr. Heather Morrison says rising COVID-19 case numbers in Atlantic Canada and across the country mean Island residents should &#8220;carefully consider&#8221; travel at this time.
The province reported one new case of the virus and currently has 40 active infections.

People travelling to the Island who are not vaccinated will still be required to self-isolate for eight days with a negative test on day eight.

Dr. Heather Morrison says rising COVID-19 case numbers in Atlantic Canada and across the country mean Island residents should ‘carefully consider’ travel at this time.

P.E.I. residents advised to avoid non-essential travel outside of the province
