Dagmarth and the Escape from Palmer by Joseph. J. Miccolies Review by Nwoko Solomon Ikechukwu

Joseph. J. Miccolies

Nwoko Solomon Ikechukwu
Solaris, an old, wise and brave man was worried and concerned about his people and the kingdom- The Dagmarthians. He seems to be the only Dagmarthian who could see clearly, things as they are. While others were lost in the feast, believing or thinking that war and attack on the kingdom by the dark lord (Lazareth) are over, Solaris believed seriously that the dark lord will come back with his war and attack on their kingdom. So, he was worried that the king, Asmoph of Dagmarth and the people of Dagmarth were living at ease and are not making any plans to defending the kingdom from the coming attack. Solaris also observed that the former glory and beauty of the house of Dagmarth is far greater than the present house.

When the king and his people- The Dagmarthians least expected, the dark lord returned. This time, with unbelievable and unimaginable weapons and attack on the kingdom. Every attempt to escape to a safe place proved abortive, Earth became the only hope for the king, his wife and the newly born Prince- Kodus. Dagmarthians lost every hope of survival and the return, better still, reborn of Dagmarth. The only hope left for the Dagmarthians was the prophecy made about a child who will be born to take Dagmarth to greater glory and beauty. Prince Kodus is born, will he fulfill the prophecy?

... Dagmarth and the Escape from Palmer by Joseph. J. Miccolies is an interesting, thrilling and captivating story. It has a creative storyline, garnished with catchy figures of speech. Joseph's usage of words is not only creative and constructive, but it is also wonderful and awesome. In fact, in him, I see the present time Williams Shakespeare. This story is rich, mature and informative. It creates clear imagery or picture in the minds of its readers. As one reads the story, he/she can see or view clearly in his/her mind the story. Also, one sees him/herself in the story and flows with the storyline. The story is quite entertaining, full of suspense, making the reader eager to know what happens next and how it all ends. This will make the reader continue reading tirelessly until he/she comes to the creative end of the story. Reading this story is like watching a movie.

I, therefore, rate this story 4 out of 5 stars because of its creativity and the ability to entertain. I also recommend this story to all readers, especially, those who love the creative work of art (literature).

Finally, I say kudos to Mr. Joseph. J. Miccolies for the ability to use his pen creatively and to adequately entertain his readers; more grace.

COVID-19, a Means of Exploitation by Nigerian Politicians

This young man who is probably a  pastor has vomited his heart on the happenings in Nigeria, especially, over the issue of coronavirus, also known as COVID-19.  He condemned the Nigerian politicians whom he accused have turned COVID-19 into a business venture. He pointed out that it took Nigeria Independent Electoral Commission (INEC)  many months to distribute voters card to Nigerians, but they have claimed to have distributed millions of nairas to Nigerians within few days. He asked how possible is that. He also asked who among Nigerians did they distribute the money to, and confessed that the said money did not reach him. He asked Nigerians who among them received the money, of course, I did not receive the money myself, not yet.

THE TYPE OF PRESIDENT NIGERIA NEEDS

The Type of President Nigeria Need to Success as One Nation I see a President as a presider, one who presides over the affairs and wellbeing of his people. A President is a father who loves, cares, provides, and listens to the call, request, or cry of his children (citizens). Of course, a President just like a father disciplines his erring children, but with love and the mindset to bring them back to the right track for the progress and betterment of the family (nation). Not with a mindset of hate, vengeance, insubordinate decisions/actions, stigmatization, or discrimination. A President as a father does not show favoritism; though like a father, he may have a favorite son or sons, but he is careful not to make it obvious less it causes division among the members of the family and jeopardize the family's unity, togetherness, and peace. A President like a father is the head of the family (nation); this is the veto vested on him by God and by the citizens (children) who, by vir

What we must do for Nigeria now, by Nwoko Solomon Ikechukwu

What Nigeria as a nation needs now is prayer for Divine intervention. A lot has happened in the nation and a lot is still happening. The kind of prayer that Nigeria needs is the sincere kind of prayer that saved her from  falling, dividing and that aid the preservation of many lives and properties which would have been destroyed during or after 2015 general election. The atmosphere was full of fear, lives were seriously in danger and tensions were very high. However, the sincere prayer of the righteous, made  God to disapoint Satan, those planing the fall or division of Nigeria and those armed and ready to destroy the lives and properties of Nigerians, especially, the weak and the poor. It has come again the atmosphere of fear, lives are in danger, the atmosphere highly tensed up, therefore, another since prayer for God's intervention is seriously needed. The Bible said that, "Unless the Lord builds the house, the builders labor in vain. Unless the Lord watches over the
