President Bola Tinubu has congratulated President-elect, John Dramani Mahama, on his victory in the December 7, 2024 general election in Ghana. His opponent has made a concession speech. In a telephone call to Mahama, President Tinubu hoped that Mahama’s ascension to power for the second time would further bring stability to the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), of which President Tinubu is the chairman. President Tinubu commended the people of Ghana for their commitment to democracy, which was demonstrated through the peaceful and successful conduct of both the presidential and parliamentary elections. He applauded Ghanaians for demonstrating again to the world that democracy is the preferred path to achieving political stability, economic development, social justice, and transparent governance in Africa. He affirmed that Nigeria’s and the region’s belief in the principles of the people’s right to choose their leaders freely will remain a source of pride. The Nigerian leader applauded the candidate of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP), the vice president of Ghana, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, for conceding defeat before the official announcement by Ghana’s Electoral Commission. President Tinubu said Bawumia’s stance reinforced Ghana’s democratic ethos. President Tinubu noted that President-elect Mahama’s return to Jubilee House, having served as president from 2012 to 2017, reflects the Ghanaian people’s trust in his stewardship and vision to take the country to greater heights. Mahama served as Vice President of Ghana from 2009 to 2012, Member of Parliament from 1997 to 2009, and held deputy and ministerial roles between 1998 and 2001.

It’s still two days until Christmas but Premier Doug Ford is already getting into the spirit. In a video posted on social media on Monday morning, Ford is seen dressed up in a bright red Santa suit performing a personalized rendition of the famous 1823 poem “A Visit from St. Nicholas.” As we look ahead to another new year, here’s what we’re working on to bring you good cheer! Merry Christmas to all, and with a new year in sight, merry Christmas, Ontario and to all a good night. 🎄 The video begins with the iconic “Twas the night before Christmas...” but then veers from the usual script to focus on Ford’s hopes for the coming year. “Our province stood tall, with visions of progress uniting us all,” Ford says in the video. " As we look ahead to another New Year, here’s what we’re working on to bring you good cheer.” The two-minute video features a number of Progressive Conservative cabinet ministers writing letters to Santa and dropping them off in a mail slot outside Ford’s office. Ford is then seen reading the letters beside a lit up Christmas tree, all while dressed up as Santa Claus. “Dear Santa, Ontarians are stuck in traffic, losing time each day with crowded roads and endless jams, it shouldn’t be this way” Transportation Minister Prabmeet Singh says in the video. “So, this year, I’m wishing big. Let gridlock disappear and bring joy to everyone this coming new year.” Next, Energy Minister Stephen Lecce wishes for expansion of nuclear power generation and “more electrification far and near.” “Ontario’s bright with nuclear power that’s clean, with more power plants soon to be seen,” Lecce rhymes. Economic Development Minister Victor Fedeli, Labour Minister David Paccini and Health Minister Sylvia Jones are all seen making similar Christmas wishes. Their wishes include jobs and investments, electric vehicle manufacturing, skilled trade and expanding healthcare. Meanwhile, Ford, as Santa, is seen ticking it off his list of wishes to grant. Ford has made a tradition out of releasing a pre-Christmas video since first being elected. Last year he released a video in which he assembled a in a symbolic nod to his desire to ramp up the construction of housing in the province. The year before that it was . The end of the video shows Ford, as Santa, thanking the people of Ontario for their trust and support, and promising to build a strong future together. He ends it by saying “Merry Christmas to all with the new year in sight. Merry Christmas, Ontario, and to all a good night.”

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) — In a season that began with many questions and lowered expectations , it was apt watching Bills quarterback Josh Allen join coach Sean McDermott lay on the cold, wet sideline to make snow angels in celebrating Buffalo’s earliest clinching of a division title in team history. That Allen took part was no surprise. The newly engaged 28-year-old has maintained the happy-go-lucky approach he brought with him to Buffalo as a raw-talented athlete in 2018, while gradually blossoming into one of the NFL’s elite quarterbacks. For McDermott, it was a pleasant surprise to see the usually reserved eight-year coach finally let his hair down — figuratively, because the few jokes he does make are usually about being bald. With his latest do-it-all three-TD outing — one rushing, one receiving and, the coup de grace, being credited with receiving his own pass for a score off a lateral from Amari Cooper — in a 35-10 win over San Francisco on Sunday night , Allen continued making his strongest NFL MVP case. What’s also becoming apparent is how much McDermott deserves consideration for coach of the year honors. Without the two, the Bills (10-2) wouldn’t be in this position in becoming just the eighth NFL team — and first since Indianapolis in 2009 — to clinch a division title with at least five games remaining in their schedule. It’s reflective of how the two have grown together in what, on the outside, could be perceived as an odd couple relationship between an offensive-minded, swashbuckling quarterback and a defensive-minded coach, too often knocked for being too conservative. Perhaps, it’s Allen’s boyish nature that has brought out the risk-taker in McDermott, who has carried over the aggressive approach he takes to defense by placing trust in his quarterback. It’s become apparent in everything the Bills have accomplished so far in having at least 10 wins through 12 games for just the fifth time in team history, and first since 1991, when Buffalo was led by eventual Hall of Famers in coach Marv Levy and quarterback Jim Kelly. Buffalo has won seven straight since consecutive losses to Baltimore and Houston. And the Bills have scored 30 or more points in six straight outings, matching the team record set in 2004. Allen is doing more with less on an offense that was supposed to be hampered following the offseason departures of receivers Stefon Diggs and Gabe Davis and center Mitch Morse. The Bills are more balanced in leaning on their running attack, while Allen has also curtailed his turnover-prone ways. He's lost two fumbles and thrown just five interceptions after being picked off a career-worst 18 times last season. Meantime, McDermott has taken a different approach to fourth down situations. The Bills have converted 13 of 15 fourth down attempts after going 9 of 16 last season and 7 of 13 in 2022. The most fourth down attempts during McDermott’s tenure came in 2021, when Buffalo converted just 11 of 22. This is but an example of the bond the quarterback and coach have built in a shared objective of overcoming past playoff failures. Clinching a division title is but one step, with the Bills now focused on catching the Kansas City Chiefs (11-1), whom they’ve beaten already , for the AFC’s top seed. In calling it the team’s next goal, McDermott went off script from his usual game-at-a-time message by noting the importance of celebrating a division-clinching win, if only for one day. “Being 50 years old and 20-plus years in this league, I’ve learned to try and enjoy the moments,” McDermott said. “And this is a moment, right?” It certainly was. Turnover differential. Buffalo’s defense forced three fumbles, including one at its goal line, while the offense didn’t commit a giveaway. The Bills upped their league-leading turnover differential entering Monday to plus-17. Run defense. Though the conditions were snowy and slick, the Bills allowed 119 yards rushing in the first half before the 49ers were forced to start passing the ball once the score became lopsided. Buffalo particularly struggled in stopping Christian McCaffrey, who had 53 yards on seven carries before leaving the game with a potential season-ending knee injury . LB Matt Milano was in on five tackles while playing 37 of 48 defensive snaps in his first outing in nearly 14 months after being sidelined by a broken right leg and torn left biceps. CB Kaiir Elam, the 2022 first-round pick was a healthy inactive for a second straight outing, and still having difficulty finding a regular role. None reported. 9-0 — The Bills' home record going back to last season, marking their second-longest run in team history. Hit the road for two outings, starting with a trip to face the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday. AP NFL: https://apnews.com/hub/nfl

Syria latest: Russian state news agencies report Assad has arrived in Moscow and been granted asylumPublished 1:36 pm Friday, December 27, 2024 By Sabrina Simms Robertson NATCHEZ — A Natchez native and senior at Mississippi School for the Arts in Brookhaven has put his passion for writing into practice and revived and transformed his school newspaper, putting copies into the hands of not only his classmates but printing stories in newspapers around the region. Cooper Brumfield, the son of Joanna Kidder and Cliff Brumfield, interned last summer at The Natchez Democrat where he became acquainted with its Publisher, Stacy Graning. After his internship, Brumfield decided he would collaborate with Graning to give life to the previously discontinued school newspaper called Rise. “Rise was created (in 2020) by an alum named Maleigh Crespo,” he said. “She actually works for the newspaper for Loyola in New Orleans, but it was exclusively an online paper and then for her last go around, she did one paper in print.” Unfortunately, the handoff didn’t go well after Crespo’s class graduated, Brumfield said. “No one had made a post on the online forum for years,” he said. “I got in contact with Maleigh and she gave me all the admin information for the online paper. And then I decided to talk to Stacy about maybe printing again eventually and we came up with a system where we’d be able to print and add things to different papers across the state.” The revived paper printed its first edition in October. Around 200 copies were distributed at the school and another 2,000 were printed in the Brookhaven Daily Leader, he said. “This December, we’re having an eight-pager printed out, which will be in different papers across the state,” he said. “We’re starting up our online paper again in January, and it’s been nice. I have about a 15-person writing staff with a lot of different people, including social media team writers. It’s been exciting.” Content is a mixture of campus activities, campus life and then whatever the writers themselves want to talk about in online blog posts, such as current events or movies and books they enjoy. Those interested in becoming students can also learn about the admission process and deadlines thanks to the student writers, Brumfield said. Brumfield is considering a few college offers for after he graduates, the Millsaps College in Jackson, Columbia College in Chicago, and the University of Iowa to name a few. His top choice is Emerson College in Boston, he said. Brumfield intends to pursue a double major in Creative Writing and Anthropology to add another level of knowledge and understanding of human nature and culture to his writing, he said. After school, he sees himself being a published author and maybe working as a college professor, Brumfield said. In total, he has amassed around $300,000 in scholarships to different colleges. His experience with the school paper has been rewarding, he said. “It has created the sense of community with a bunch of students that really wouldn’t have interacted with each other if it wasn’t for that setting,” he said, including some with an interest in writing and some without any writing interest. “I had some people who specifically came to me because they wanted to be part of the social media team or they wanted to be a photographer,” he said. “It’s a handful of different things. The main point of this club is to expand and hopefully find other students who have same interest as me in garnering more understanding of and developing their love for what they do.” Apart from running the newspaper club, Brumfield is on the executive board of the Student Government Association and is active in “Poetry Out Loud” — a performative poetry competition. “I just won my schoolwide event, so I’ll be going to Jackson State in January. I would say close to to 1,000 or 2,000 people participate in that where it starts very large and they file through.” The readers chose the poem to memorize and recite, Brumfield said, “One has to be pre-20th century and one has to be below 25 lines so it’s a spectrum,” he said. He chose “December 1919” by Claude McKay and “Rondeau” by Leigh Hunt, both of which are short poems to give Brumfield time to work on performance, he said. “The advice given to me was to not be so focused on the poem as a performative piece, but as a poem. Find poems that you like so you can easier to connect to them,” he said. “I find I’m way better at memorizing songs that I like than the ones I don’t like. I enjoy them and I understand them. If you understand and enjoy the poem, it’s easy to memorize.” Brumfield said he is working to create a name for himself with the different works he has published and with an upcoming showcase in May featuring playwriting, short stories and poems. “I have 10 published pieces here at (The Natchez Democrat), and then I have been published in four individual magazines, plus a play that’s been published,” he said. He has also been recognized by the Mississippi Scholastic Press Association as a finalist in Best Dramatic Word, Best Flash Fiction and Best Short Story categories. Brumfield said he takes inspiration from notable writers such as Oscar Wilde, CS Elliot and Jack London. His goal for the newspaper club is for it to last, he said. “I hope to see it become more than anything I was able to ever accomplish,” Brumfield said. “I’ve been working with a couple of people getting everything ready to be handed off in May. I just hope that there are enough people around me that have the same passion for writing that I do so that it can carry on and that it doesn’t die out again.”
