President Joe Biden recently announced a significant investment of $3 billion from his Inflation Reduction Act aimed at upgrading and modernizing ports across 27 states and territories.

During a speech highlighting the importance of this funding, Biden emphasized the need to go beyond mere reconstruction.

He stated, “It’s not enough to just rebuild America. We have to build back better and stronger than before.”

His remarks showcase a vision that prioritizes sustainable growth and modernization, ensuring that America’s ports are equipped to handle the demands of a rapidly evolving global economy.

The funding is part of a wider strategy to improve critical infrastructure that helps in the nation’s supply chain and economic resilience.

Biden’s plan will facilitate a range of upgrades, including advanced technology to streamline operations, improvements to handling capacity, and initiatives aimed at reducing emissions.

This is particularly significant as the nation grapples with climate change and seeks to transition toward cleaner energy sources.

By allocating substantial funds to ports, he is positioning the country to better manage supply chain disruptions, which have become more evident during the pandemic and its aftermath.

Suspended Rivers State Governor, Sim Fubara, has distanced himself from campaign materials being circulated ahead of the 2027 elections. Fubara made it clear that he never approved the production of caps, shirts, or any other campaign items for the next general election.

Speaking to his supporters in Port Harcourt on Saturday, Fubara stressed that his focus is on restoring peace and stability in the state, not on political campaigns. His reaction follows the recent resolution of the political crisis in Rivers State by President Bola Tinubu.

The clash between Fubara and the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory had sparked months of tension, which eventually led to Fubara’s six-month suspension from office. Tinubu even declared a state of emergency in Rivers State during the height of the crisis.

However, the president stepped in last week, holding talks with all parties at the Presidential Villa in Abuja, leading to a temporary truce. Fubara expressed his frustration over the campaign materials, saying, “I was really upset when someone sent me a video of people producing caps and shirts for the 2027 elections.

“I didn’t approve that, I didn’t send anyone to do that. For now, what Rivers State needs is peace so that we can focus on progress and development.”

The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, will be leading a national prayer session focused on reviving Nigeria’s struggling economy. The prayer is scheduled to take place during the church’s July 2025 Thanksgiving Service, themed “Divine Intervention”, at the RCCG national headquarters in Oyingbo, Lagos.

Speaking ahead of the event through his Special Assistant on Administration, Pastor Dele Balogun, Pastor Adeboye acknowledged that both Nigeria and other countries are facing tough times. But he believes the current hardship is not beyond repair if people embrace faith and take positive action.

“Our nation is going through serious challenges, just like other parts of the world. But the truth is, we can overcome them with faith, as long as we don’t give room to fear or doubt,” Adeboye said. He encouraged Nigerians to reject negative confessions and instead focus on faith-driven solutions, adding that with God’s intervention, the country’s economic situation can still turn around.

The upcoming prayer session, according to him, is not just about asking for change but about opening doors to new opportunities and paving the way for national transformation.
