My wonderful and well loved and respected Mwalimu Ikhide and Mwalimu Idahosa, is this not one of the outcomes I have predicted all along? I saw both armies many times, and it suffices to say that agility is not on the side of Gbagbo's forces. And, please, do not worry about my health; I have the best medical doctor in the world: Dr. Oladunni Filani of Howard University Hospital. As we say in Da Hood, the Brother is a Baaaaaddddd when it comes to medicine. He has made sure that my annual check ups that include everything from blood tests to EKG to chest X-rays and colonoscopy are 100 percent every year. Besides, in addition to Ramadan, I fast 4-5 days each week year round.
Ivory Coast: Rebels Seize Town From Government

Published: February 25, 2011
Rebels who control the northern Ivory Coast have seized a town in the west, in government-controlled territory, and said Friday that they were still advancing, raising the prospect of a return to civil war. The town, Zouan-Hounien, is near the border with Liberia. Loyalists of Laurent Gbagbo, the strongman clinging to power after an election most of the world says he lost, confirmed that the town fell and said they would fight to take it back. United Nations officials have warned that clashes this week in Abidjan and the west have pushed the country closer to open war.
