You may have heard the recent news about the BBC and Donald Trump. The BBC is a very large news company. They are in big trouble because they edited a speech by Trump to make it say something different. It was a dishonest thing to do.
Because of this, Trump is angry. He has asked for an apology and says he will take them to court. Some important people at the BBC have even lost their jobs over this.
For many of us, this is not a surprise. We saw the BBC do something very similar to a great man of God: Prophet T.B. Joshua.
The BBC made a film about Prophet T.B. Joshua and his church, SCOAN. The film was full of lies. It only showed one side of the story from people who were against him.
The church, now led by his wife Pastor Evelyn Joshua, showed strong proof that the film was wrong. We showed:
But the BBC did not listen. They did not say sorry. They did not take the film down. Shockingly, they even won an award for their lying film.
We believe that God sees when people tell lies about good people. We believe that you cannot mock God.
What is happening to the BBC now with Trump shows that God is fair. The same habit of lying that they used against the prophet is now causing problems for them in public. Their mistake is being shown to the whole world.
This is a lesson for everyone: lies you tell will eventually find you out.
The bad spirit that helped them tell lies is still in their company. It will keep causing them trouble until they do the right thing.
They must remove the false film about Prophet T.B. Joshua, and publicly apologize to Pastor Evelyn Joshua and the entire SCOAN.
We are watching them. We are waiting to see what will happen. We know that God will always defend the truth.

– Brazilian Indigenous leader and environmentalist Cacique Raoni Metuktire appealed for support for Indigenous peoples and their land. From the podium of the Peoples’ Summit, Cacique Raoni warned negotiators at the UN climate conference in Belém that without recognizing Indigenous peoples’ land rights, there will be no climate justice.
“It is getting warmer and warmer. And a big change is going on with the earth. Air is harder to breathe; this is only the beginning,” he said on Sunday while addressing representatives of the global climate justice movement at the Peoples’ Summit. “If we don’t act now, there will be very big consequences for everyone.”

While Belém city is hosting world leaders, government officials, scientists, policymakers, activists, and more than 1,600 fossil fuel lobbyists to decide the future course of global climate action, the Peoples’ Summit gathered frontline voices.
About nine kilometers from the COP30 venue, at the grounds of the Universidade Federal do Pará (UFPA-Federal University of Pará), activists engaged in diverse dialogue for five days and issued the “Declaration of the Peoples’ Summit Towards COP30” in the presence of Indigenous leaders like Raoni, which was handed over to the COP presidency.
The Declaration states that the capitalist mode of production is the main cause of the growing climate crisis. It claims that today’s environmental problems are “a consequence of the relations of production, circulation, and disposal of goods, under the logic and domination of financial capital and large capitalist corporations.” It demands the participation and leadership of people in constructing climate solutions, recognizing ancestral knowledge.

Sebastián Ordoñez Muñoz, associated with War on Want, a UK-based organization and part of the political commission of the Peoples’ Summit, said the political declaration constructed through the summit process reflects peoples’ demands and proposals. “It has our solutions, people’s solutions,” he said. He explained that crafting the declaration was a convergence of diverse voices, uniting around clarity on what needs to happen to address the climate crisis.
“It is an expression of the autonomy of people’s movements coming together, converging to develop clear proposals that are based on the real solutions happening on the ground-in the territories, in the forests, in the seas, in the rivers, and so on,” he added. “It’s important to hand it over because we need to make sure that our voices are represented there [at COP]. Any space that we have inside the COP has always been through struggle.”
As a space for community members to come together and deliver the public’s point of view, Peoples’ Summits have been organized as parallel conferences of the COP. It did not take place during the last three COPs. But in Brazil, civil society is actively making its case.

“We need to continue making our voices heard there, but also not to beg-to state that we have the solutions and that we must be listened to, because none of these answers, none of these solutions are possible without the communities themselves,” Ordoñez Muñoz told IPS News from the Peoples’ Summit ground. “I think it’s a statement and a road map. Where do we go from here?”
Unlike COP30, the Peoples’ Summit attracted diverse groups of community members and civil society leaders. The COP venue follows the process of negotiations, while the summit emphasizes collaboration to find solutions and celebrate unity. It blends discussion with Indigenous folklore and music to bring stories of community.
“If you go into the COP summit, it’s so stale. It’s so sterile. It’s so monotonous. So homogeneous. So corporate,” Ordoñez Muñoz said. “Over here, what we have is the complete opposite. We have such diversity-differences in voice, vocabulary, language, and struggles.”
He added that the COP process is moving in one direction, unjust in nature, and reproducing many of the dynamics that led to the crisis in the first place.
“Over here, we’re all moving together. We have unity.”

LILONGWE-(MaraviPost)-The Centre for Democracy and Economic Development Initiatives (CDEDI) has released a hard-hitting statement warning that Salima Sugar Company Limited (SSCL) has become a “ticking bomb” due to massive mismanagement, corruption and political interference.
Addressing the news conference on Monday, CDEDI Executive Director Sylvester Namiwa,accuses senior executives and politically connected individuals of siphoning billions of kwacha from the company through fraudulent contracts, irregular payments and reckless decision-making.
CDEDI says the situation threatens the survival of the company and risks severe losses for the Malawian economy.
SSCL was originally formed as a joint venture between the Malawi Government through Greenbelt Holdings Limited and India’s AUM Sugar and Allied Limited. Its mandate was to introduce competition in the sugar market and provide affordable sugar to ordinary Malawians.
Instead, CDEDI says the company has been turned into a breeding ground for corruption.
The organisation links the current crisis to a 2023 directive by then Secretary to the President and Cabinet, Colleen Zamba, who instructed that all company matters be routed through Executive Chairman Wester Kossam. This position allowed Kossam to assume control over crucial operations of SSCL.
Although he appointed an acting CEO, Roy Apoovra, the CEO reportedly left Malawi for India shortly after his appointment, leaving Kossam to combine the duties of Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer without oversight.
According to CDEDI, the consequences have been catastrophic. During the 2024–2025 crushing season, SSCL produced only 8,400 metric tonnes of sugar against a target of 20,000 tonnes, compared to 18,000 tonnes produced the previous season.
The organisation warns that this sharp decline puts the company on the brink of losing around K30 billion in revenue. With rains already falling, hundreds of sugarcane farmers now fear their uncrushed cane will go to waste.
The poor output has been attributed to chronic machine breakdowns and failure to maintain the company’s sugar mill, which has the capacity to crush up to 300,000 metric tonnes of cane annually.
CDEDI also reports that the drip irrigation system collapsed during the growing season, causing large portions of the crop to dry up before harvest.
Beyond operational failures, the organisation has raised serious allegations of personal enrichment. It claims Kossam authorised a K15 million payment for his private super-link trailer and awarded a lucrative K1.3 billion sugar import contract to ESTT Holdings, a firm linked to a politically influential individual, Ronald Mdoka.
A delegation sent to Brazil to inspect the purchased sugar reportedly found stock that was already destined for another country and the sugar has never arrived in Malawi. The payment remains unrecovered.
Further allegations include the use of a foreign currency account belonging to an honorary consul in the Middle East to facilitate the Brazil transaction and the issuing of unpaid credit facilities worth about K1 billion to politically connected individuals.
CDEDI also reveal scandalous fertiliser deals in which suppliers received hundreds of millions of kwacha upfront but delivered nothing.
On governance, CDEDI argues that Kossam’s recent suspension is meaningless because his term effectively expired when the Greenbelt Authority board was dissolved in August 2024 and again reconstituted in 2025 without his name.The organisation says government cannot suspend someone whose mandate ended long ago.
CDEDI has urged the government to ensure that all funds allegedly acquired unlawfully are refunded. It wants law enforcement agencies to summon all individuals involved, including those linked to the failed sugar import deal.
The organisation is also calling for an urgent audit of the entire company and for the Ministries of Finance and Agriculture to explore ways to rescue SSCL from a crippling loan that is costing the company over K1.1 billion every month.
CDEDI Executive Director Sylvester Namiwa warns that unless decisive action is taken, Salima Sugar Company is headed for total collapse, leaving cane growers stranded and Malawians counting heavy losses.

PRETORIA-(MaraviPost)-African National Congress (ANC) President Cyril Ramaphosa has delivered a bold challenge to his internal rivals, daring them to publicly state the date on which they want him to step down.
Addressing the ANC National Executive Committee (NEC) during what insiders described as a tense and heated political session, Ramaphosa confronted detractors directly.
He urged those plotting his removal to stop discussing his exit “in dark corners like cowards” and instead present their demands openly and transparently.
Ramaphosa further indicated that should the NEC formally request his resignation, he would comply immediately, signaling a willingness to abide by party processes.
The dramatic confrontation occurs amid escalating factional battles within the ANC, with some figures reportedly pushing for leadership changes and suggesting the creation of a national task team to replace the NEC.
Ramaphosa, however, insisted that the party cannot operate “mafia-style” and called for lifestyle audits of NEC members to enforce accountability and transparency.
His remarks come amid media speculation that he might resign following the G20 summit this weekend, heightening political tension within the party.
Despite the visible factionalism, ANC spokespersons maintain that the party remains united and that Ramaphosa intends to serve his full term until 2027.
Nevertheless, his daring statement exposes the depth of internal turmoil and pressures his opponents either to formalize their rebellion or abandon their behind-the-scenes campaign against him.

JOHANNESBURG-(MaraviPost)-Malawian rising boxing star Mayamiko “Tyson” Mozland delivered a sensational performance on Sunday night, stopping Zimbabwe’s Lancelot Moyo in a stunning knockout that left fans on both sides of the border in awe.
The fight, held at Johannesburg’s Fourways Farmers Market, drew a packed crowd eager to witness the clash between two promising southern African fighters. From the opening bell, Mozland showcased his trademark speed and precision, immediately putting Moyo on the back foot.
Moyo, known for his toughness and resilience, tried to impose his own rhythm with aggressive jabs and heavy hooks.
But Mozland’s footwork and timing proved too sharp, allowing him to dodge attacks while landing punishing counters.
By the middle rounds, it was clear that Mozland was in control.
A series of rapid combinations culminated in a perfectly timed right hand that staggered Moyo.
The referee had no choice but to step in, declaring Mozland the winner by knockout.
The knockout sent the crowd into a frenzy. Mozland fell to his knees in celebration, raising his fists in triumph as fans chanted his name.
The victory not only cemented his growing reputation but also marked a proud moment for Malawian boxing.
Mozland’s journey to this fight has been a steady climb. Earlier this year, he secured a knockout victory over Coresh Mboweni in South Africa, followed by a competitive draw against Vuyo Radebe, showcasing both his power and tactical awareness in the ring.
Mozland himself remained humble after the fight, praising his team and promising more action in the future.
“This victory is for my country and for everyone who believes in Malawian boxing. I’m ready to take on bigger challenges,” he said during the post-fight interview.
