...A masterclass on power, perception, and resistance. Katniss isn’t just a girl with a bow; she’s a symbol, and symbols are powerful. The real threat isn’t her actions, but the hope she inspires. Hope is dangerous to any system built on fear. Plutarch understands that destroying her physically isn’t necessary. All they need to do is destroy her image. Control how people perceive her, and the people will do the rest. That’s how propaganda works; not always by silencing, but by manipulating narratives. They also expose a chilling truth: distraction is a weapon. While people are being flogged and executed, the media is told to focus on her wedding dress and cake. When the public is busy with entertainment and gossip, they forget the real battles around them. But President Snow says it plainly; fear alone won’t work if people still have hope. That’s the core message. No matter how dark things get, the presence of hope keeps people awake, aware, and ready to resist. For Nigerians, this hits home. In a society where fear is often used to control, where media narratives are twisted, and where distractions are everywhere, holding on to hope, and thinking critically, is revolutionary. #HopeOverFear #NigerianYouth #PowerOfSymbols #StayWoke #AmarsCity

The United Kingdom is considering new immigration measures that could make it harder for citizens of Nigeria, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka to obtain visas, citing high rates of overstays and subsequent asylum claims. According to information first published by The Times on Tuesday, the UK Home Office is preparing to introduce stricter visa policies targeting nationalities identified as having a greater likelihood of remaining in the country beyond the terms of their visas. In recent years there has been a surge in the number of Nigerians relocating abroad in search of greener pastures, a phenomenon now popularly known as japa in Nigeria. UK authorities say a pattern of individuals arriving on work or study permits and later seeking asylum triggered the proposed restrictions. A spokesperson for the Home Office confirmed that a forthcoming Immigration White Paper will outline steps to reform the system. “Our upcoming Immigration White Paper will set out a comprehensive plan to restore order to our broken immigration system,” “To tackle abuse by foreign nationals who arrive on work and study visas and go on to claim asylum, we are building intelligence on the profile of these individuals to identify them earlier and faster. https://amarscity.com/cp/pages/Newsline https://punchng.com/japa-uk-considers-tighter-visa-rules-for-nigerians-pakistanis/

The Thrones of Stone: Who Rules Knoken? Knoken has no king by blood. Only by balance. In the dwarven capital of Knoken, the ruler is not born — they are elected. But this is no simple vote. The process is ancient, sacred, and perilous. Power flows through three mighty roots: 🛡️ The Great Clans — noble families of dwarven blood, each with its own loyal clientele of artisans, warriors, merchants, and spies. Their rivalries run centuries deep, their alliances shift like tectonic plates beneath the stone. ⛪ The Clergy — devoted to the Four High Gods: Fanti, god of gems and radiant splendor. Kraab, the eternal archivist and keeper of law. Ludi, goddess of freedom, laughter, and creativity. Odis, grim god of acceptance, duty, and death. Each god’s temple wields moral and magical authority — and often disagrees on who deserves the crown. 🌀 The Factions — secretive or formal powers that transcend clan and temple: The Order of the Wall Keepers, protectors of dwarven history and bastions. The Guild of Jewelers, whose wealth can sway entire councils. The Wild, nomads and reformists who walk freely where others fear. The Corruption, a hidden cabal seeking something beneath the mountain. The Shore, a network of spies who trade in silence and secrets. ⚖️ When the throne is empty, these forces converge. Debates erupt. Bribes and omens flow. The deepest chambers of Knoken hum with oaths, threats, and whispered miracles. The one who rises is not the strongest, nor the wisest — but the one who weaves the threads best. 🪓 Who will sit next upon the Stone Throne? I know that of course but what would you imagine as the current... and the next leader ?

*** My neighbor was away on a two-week work trip when his pregnant wife went into labor. They had been married for almost two years now and this was the closest she had come after six consecutive miscarriages. It was past 11pm when his call came in and I was in bed at the time, fast asleep. I reached for my phone with sleepy eyes and clumsily picked the call. "Nnamdi!!" He yelled my name "Please help my wife! She is in labor! Take her to the hospital, please!" I jumped out of bed the moment I heard 'labor' and had to rush down to his apartment in just singlet and boxers. I got there and met his wife in the living room, in pain. "Nnamdi, thank God you're here!" She said in relief "Please take me to the hospital, labor has come" I drew closer and tried to lift her off the couch, I couldn't. "Hold my waist, Oga!" She yelled angrily and began to cry "I don't really blame you sha. It's Chukwudi I blame" I was finally able to get her up with my hand around her waist, and we began to slowly march outside. When we got to the door, she told me to slow down, that I was moving too fast. "Wait here let me get a taxi" I told her and dashed out the gate. I returned moments later to find her sitting on the floor. "I couldn't find a taxi o" I informed her "Can we use wheelbarrow?" "You and who will enter wheelbarrow?" She barked, panting "Oya Oya go and get the wheelbarrow naw! You're too dull... Tufiakwa!" I rushed to the back of the house and fetched our landlord's wheelbarrow, then helped her settle into it. "Look at what Chukwudi has caused" She started lamenting "I told him not to travel o" I ignored her and started pushing the barrow. She was as heavy as a hippo. I got to a point and decided to stop and rest. "Chukwudi what are you doing!?" She turned to ask me "Push this thing before I born here! Lazy boy!" "Ma, I am not Chukwudi. I am Nnamdi" I said annoyingly "Shut up Oga, both of you are the same thing. Push this thing Osiso!" She voiced I swallowed my anger and began to push again. She wouldn't stop talking, she wouldn't stop crying. Finally we arrived the hospital and she was wheeled into the theatre room. I stayed back at the reception hall. I was just praying silently. Ten minutes later, a nurse accosted me. "Mr Chukwudi, your wife wants to see you" She said "My name is not Chukwudi, that's her husband's name" I said "Is there a problem?" "Please just come" She said, grabbing me by the hand as we walked into the labor room "Nnamdi! Carry that your big head and come here!" She yelled the moment she saw me approaching with the nurse. The other nurses in the room began to giggle. At that point I was both exhausted and angry. I didn't know if I was now the husband or neighbour. I just stood by the door gawking. "Good husbands are beside their wives in times like this but Chukwudi is nowhere to be found" She continued "Men are w!cked.. All of them!" The nurses asked me to leave and I returned to the reception hall. I sat and closed my eyes, but the next time I opened them, there was the cry of a baby. I was still trying to figure out if it was a dream or not when another nurse ran up to me. "Congratulations sir, it's a baby boy!" All the pain and anger immediately vanished as I ran into the theatre room to meet the baby in his mother's arms. She was just shedding tears of joy. I couldn't contain my happiness. It felt so satisfying. I returned to the reception hall again and was still in an excited mood when another nurse approached me and shook my hands firmly. "Congratulations sir" She said "You're now a father!" I was set to tell her I wasn't the husband when she dropped yet another bombshell. "The baby looks exactly like you" 🙄 If dem never kîl one nurse for this hospital, others no go rest.

Once upon a time, there was a donkey... He spent his whole life envying horses. On the great farms of America, they were treated like royalty — well-fed, admired, praised for their grace. Meanwhile, he worked without rest, carrying sacks, stepping through mud, sleeping on a cold floor. And every night, as he lay there exhausted, he’d watch the horses resting on clean straw and think: "If only I were like them… my life would be better." One day, he made a decision: "I won’t be a donkey anymore." He stopped carrying loads, walked with elegance, tried to neigh instead of bray, avoided the dirt, stayed clean. He thought: if I want to be treated like a horse, I must act like one. The horses only laughed. — Look at him... he thinks he’s one of us? He’s still just a donkey. But the donkey kept going. He was sure his owner would notice the change. And he did — Just not the way the donkey had hoped. The farmer stopped calling him. Stopped feeding him. Ignored him. For the first time in his life, the donkey had no tasks. "I’ve made it!" he thought. "I’m like the horses now!" But as days passed, hunger crept in. His legs grew weak. No one brought hay. He approached the horses, hoping they’d share. They looked him over and said, — This food is for horses. You’re not one of us. He turned back to his old pen. Another donkey had taken his place. He tried to work again… but he had no strength. Now he was no longer a donkey. But he was never truly a horse. He was... no one. Then the farmer came, rope in hand. — I don’t feed animals that don’t work, he said coldly. The donkey tried to run, but he was too weak. He looked to the horses — desperate, pleading. But they just watched in silence. No one moved. No one helped. As the rope tightened and he was led away, he screamed: — I want to be a donkey again! I want to work! I want my life back! But it was too late. In life, we often envy what others have, blind to the quiet worth of our own path. Some people give up who they are, hoping to become something they’ll never be — and lose everything in the process. Never trade your essence for acceptance. The world moves on… but don’t let it move on without you.

Listen up, Men! The Rich Are Hiding Secrets—But I’m About to Expose Them The rich aren’t rich by luck. They didn’t stumble into wealth. They played a game you were never taught. And they’re not about to teach you either—because if you learn the rules, you become a threat. But you see this page? I didn’t build it for simps. I built it for men ready to break free. So listen, not just for yourself, but for every hommie you roll with. These 7 secrets will make you a millionaire in under 12 months if you apply them like your life depends on it—because it does. 1. The Rich Never Trade Time for Money—They Trade Value for Wealth While you clock in and out like a robot, they build systems that work for them 24/7—investments, digital assets, businesses. Time is limited. Systems are scalable. Learn the damn difference. 2. Debt Is Not Evil—Stupidity Is The rich use good debt to grow empires: property, equipment, business capital. You use bad debt to show off—iPhones, clubs, cars. Learn to leverage debt. If debt doesn’t make you money, it’s slavery. 3. 9–5 Will Feed You—But Ownership Will Free You They use salaries as startup capital. You use salaries as status. One builds empires, the other buys liabilities. Own something. Even if it’s a small hustle, grow it. 4. Your Network Is Your Net Worth They don’t hang with broke-minded complainers. Every friend adds value, insights, connections, or capital. If your circle isn’t building, they’re bleeding you. Cut them. 5. Silence Is a Wealth Strategy The rich don’t announce. They move in stealth. While you're posting fake life on social media, they're acquiring land, shares, and equity. Move like a shadow, strike like thunder. 6. The Rich Invest in Financial Education—Daily They read books, attend masterminds, buy courses. You watch skits, football, and porn. Knowledge is the new currency. Learn or stay broke. 7. They Sell. Period. Every millionaire is a salesman. They sell a product, a brand, a service, or a skill. If you can’
