End of the World ??? as Russia unveils SATAN 2, a missile that can wipe out the whole of Texas and London

 

Russia's enemies would be wetting their pants as the European Power-House recently unveiled a new intercontinental ballistic missile that can reportedly destroy a geographic area as large as Texas.

The debut of the RS-28 Sarmat, nicknamed "Satan 2," was first announced by Russian news network Zvezda.  It will replace the R-36M Voevoda missile, the original "Satan."

"The Sarmat missile will not only become the R-36M's successor, but also to some extent it will determine in which direction nuclear deterrence in the world will develop," Zvezda reported.

According to Sputnik, an English-language news site with ties to the Russian government, the Sarmat missile will be faster than any missile-defense system in existence. It will have an estimated range of more than 6,000 miles.

It will be equipped with a dozen warheads with a payload of between four to 10 tons. During the missile's debut, a broadcaster on Zvezda said Sarmat missiles could "wipe out" areas as large as Texas or France.

Sputnik reports Sarmat missiles will also be equipped with "advanced anti-missile countermeasures meant to penetrate the U.S. [Advanced Ballistic Missile] shield."

The Russian Defense Ministry plans to put Sarmat missiles into service in 2018. The RS-28 Sarmat missile is also expected to completely replace the R-36M Voevoda missile by 2020, according to Sputnik.

Amaechi squandered resources for infrastructural development and that is why we are rebuilding today - Nyesom Wike

Nyesom Ezenwo Wike,The Governor of Rivers State, has said that the administration started the process of infrastructural development afresh because the immediate past administration of Rotimi Amaechi squandered resources that accrued to the state under his eight years of misrule.

Governor Wike spoke on Sunday during the 10th Anniversary Thanksgiving Service of the Omega Power Ministry in Port Harcourt and the Harvest Thanksgiving of Saint Luke Anglican Church , Rumuadaolu.

"Amaechi squandered the money of our people, using state resources to sponsor elections in other places.

"Because of the funds squandered by Amaechi, we are starting the development of sstatewide infrastructure afresh. For eight years, at a time that the state got approximately N20billion monthly, that administration failed to develop critical infrastructure.

"G..U Ake was Amaechi’s political mentor. Yet for eight years, he denied his community the required access road. For us, we will continue to ensure the development of infrastructure in all communities of Rivers State , irrespective of the political leaning of the people ".

Speaking at the Omega Power Ministry , Governor Wike , Governor Wike said he has presented the political problem of the state before God, urging all Christians to pray fervently for the sustenance of the state .

He said: "The same God who ensured that we overcame them in 2015, will answer our prayers".

The governor commended the General Overseer of Omega Power Ministry , Apostle Chibuzor Chinyere for his commitment to the welfare of the less privileged .

In his remarks , General Overseer of the Omega Power Ministry , Apostle Chibuzor Chinyere lauded Governor Wike for living up to his promise of approving the building permit of the church and also granting it certificate of occupancy .

He said all members of Omega Power Ministry , irrespective of their political party , love Governor Wike for his commitment to development and the welfare of the people.

Victor Moses The Perfect Wingman For Chelsea… See His Amazing Performance Stats

The 25-year-old Nigerian is discovering his true potential in Antonio Conte’s 3-4-3 formation and could be vital if the Blues are to win the Premier League title come May



Antonio Conte’s decision to introduce Victor Moses into his Chelsea side has proved to be an inspired one. The winger was instrumental in the Blues’ 2-0 win at Southampton on Sunday evening, moving them to within a point of leaders Manchester City in the Premier League table.

Chelsea’s upturn in form since Moses has featured is no coincidence. Since the Nigerian has taken up the right wing-back berth in Conte’s new-found 3-4-3 formation, the Blues have won four from four, beating Hull, Leicester, Manchester United and Southampton, without conceding a goal.

During the Blues’ trip to St Mary’s, Gary Neville made a throwaway comment suggesting keeping clean sheets is down to mentality. Moses went some way to proving the former Manchester United right-back correct.

Conte’s pronounced actions on the sideline were matched by Moses’s determination to harry the opposition and force them to give up possession. His pace, power and pure athleticism allowed him to stride up and down the right flank and he found success against a narrow Southampton formation.

It was his clever pass behind the Saints defence which allowed Eden Hazard to open the scoring – his fifth of the season. He also tested Fraser Forster in the Southampton goal with two powerful strikes from wide positions, one with his left foot and one with his right, the former sparking panic amongst the home defence and almost leading to another Hazard goal.

But it’s Moses’s work in his own half that has impressed so much. No player on the pitch regained possession more times than the Nigerian (9), and he continually tucked in to support Cesar Azpilicueta on the right side of Conte’s back three.

The standing ovation from the Chelsea fans when replaced in the late stages of the game was a reward for his relentless hard work.

So inconsistent over the past couple of seasons, and often so erratic when powering forward, Moses is steadily settling into a tailor-made role under Conte and could very well be key to Chelsea’s Premier League title hopes come the end of the season.
