Israel won’t agree to any ceasefire activity in the Gaza war without the return of the hostages, Netanyahu said during a visit to the Ramon Air Force base in southern Israel, as he explained that he was delivering this message both to the country’s allies and enemies.

“I also want you to know that there is one thing that we will not do – there will be no ceasefire without the return of the captives,” Netanyahu told the pilots according to The Jerusalem Post. “The very idea of doing that has to be removed from the conversation,” he added.

“We (are saying) this to both our enemies and our friends. We will continue (the battle) until we have defeated them (our enemy). We have no alternative. I think today everyone understands that “The Jerusalem Post quoted him as saying.

The woman who had been admitted to the Women’s Hospital International Fertility Center in Uganda was blessed with a twin, a boy, and a girl. The woman, who has since been acknowledged by several people worldwide, is said to have struggled for many years looking for a kid, with all attempts hitting a dead rock.

According to information shared by the doctors from the incident hospital and obtained by TV 47 Kenya, the woman, identified as Safina Namukuye, was impregnated artificially using an in vitro fertilization (IVF) method. The woman has been attending facility clinics where tests in her uterus (womb) indicated an abnormal growth that has always affected her fertility development.

The doctors indicated that with the IVF method, the womb had a lot of room to develop the two that were later successful. The woman was unable to deliver normally since her hormonal structure was low. She was able to deliver through Caesarean procedures.

“We are proud of the new technology that has helped the woman give birth successfully at her odd ages. Although the womb had problems, the new technology has made it happen.

Speaking on the Act’s significance under the theme “Resolving Nigeria’s Power Crisis: The Implication of the Electricity Act 2023,” Adelabu highlighted the development of the Integrated National Electricity Policy and Strategic Implementation Plan as a key component. He affirmed ongoing efforts with the National Council on Power (NCP) to finalize the implementation strategy for submission to the Federal Executive Council (FEC) for approval.

 

Adelabu underscored a shift from the top-down to a bottom-up approach in the administration’s roadmap. The focus would be on prioritizing Metering, Distribution, and Transmission infrastructure. He reiterated immediate attention towards customers and the crucial infrastructure to ensure efficient power delivery.

 

The minister outlined a multi-tiered approach, focusing on distributed power sources, such as renewable energy, particularly solar energy in the North, mini-hydropower plants in the Middle Belt and Southwest, and wind energy in coastal states. He urged media involvement to emphasize the critical issues of power theft, and vandalism, and educate consumers against sabotaging the power supply.

 

Adelabu explained the Act’s provisions empowering states, organizations, and individuals to undertake electricity-related activities. He highlighted the Act’s significance in liberalizing electricity generation, transmission, and distribution. Adelabu reiterated the Act’s alignment with President Bola Tinubu’s vision to revolutionize the power sector.

 

He emphasized the importance of customer payments to maintain financial liquidity in the Nigerian Electricity Supply Industry (NESI). The Act encourages renewable energy integration into the grid system and the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission’s (NERC) obligations for licensees regarding renewable energy. Considering all the above, especially with the liberalization of the sector, Nigerians will soon start to experience the objective that led to the Act – improved power supply across the country.
