Pope Francis on Monday extended the power of Catholic priests to forgive women who have had abortions.
Pope who made the announcement in a letter- “apostolic letter” after the Catholic Church Holy Year of Mercy, said that abortion is a “grave sin” adding that the Catholic Church’s stance on abortion has not changed.
In the same way, however, I can and must state that there is no sin that God’s mercy cannot reach and wipe away when it finds a repentant heart seeking to be reconciled with the Father.
“May every priest, therefore, be a guide, support and comfort to penitents on this journey of special reconciliation.
“I henceforth grant to all priests, in virtue of their ministry, the faculty to absolve those who have committed the sin of procured abortion,” he added.
He noted that this will make it easier for women who have had abortions to be absolved for their actions, and rejoin the church.

It was a mixture of glitz and glamour at the 2016 edition of the prestigious and highly celebrated NIGERIA ENTREPRENEURS AWARD which held on the 18th of November 2016, at the Ladi Kwali hall Sheraton Hotel, Abuja.
Speaking at the event, Abdullahi Ganduje, Governor of Kano State called for more involvement of the youths in Small and Medium Scale Enterprises (SMEs) to enhance economic growth and ensure food sustainability in the country.
The governor said that the SMEs needed more attention than they were currently getting to promote the efforts of the Federal Government to diversify the economy. “In order to feed ourselves, produce and export, we have to look at the SMEs,” he said.
The Acting Managing Director and Chief Executive of the Nigerian Export-Import Bank (NEXIM), Mr. Bashir Wali, said that SMEs were regarded globally as the bedrock of development in any economy.
Wali was represented by Head of Strategic Planning, NEXIM, Mr Tayo Omidiji.
The NEXIM boss said that there was need to develop proper police responses to the issues and challenged SMEs in the country to support efforts by the government to diversify the economy and enhance economic growth.
“In Nigeria, Small and Medium Enterprises Development Agency has observed that there are about 37 million Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME) in Nigeria employing about 60 million people.
The co-Founder, Nigeria Entrepreneurs Award, Mr. Joshua Uwabor said that encouraging and rewarding entrepreneurial instinct was the economic success of any nation. “They are men and women, who against the tide of recession and economic challenges continue to innovate and provide opportunities for ideas to blossom into job opportunities and economic growth for the nation.”

Ekiti state governor, Ayo Fayose, who is no atranger to the media has advised Ghanaians not to vote for "change" as they head to the polls to vote for their next president on December 7th.
In a statement released by his media aide, Lere Olayinka, Fayose said Nigerians voted for change in 2015 and are currently in hunger, suffering and economic recession. He made the call when he played host to some men of God from Gahana at the state house in Ado-Ekiti. The statement in part reads.
“By buying into the All Progressives Congress (APC) message of change, Nigerians are now facing a kind of hunger and suffering never experienced in the country in the last 30 years and Ghanaians must not fall into that kind of trap. Ghanaians should not succumb to the deceit of the opposition party that are calling for a change of government. Rather, they should return the incumbent President, John Mahama, who has no doubt done creditably well to deserve a re-election. Ghanaians should know that the change in Nigeria brought hunger, suffering, disregard for the rule of law as well as arrest and detention of Nigerians without trial and be mindful of those preaching change to them. Most importantly, the situation in Ghana at present is similar to that of Nigeria.
Like President Mohammadu Buhari, opposition party, New Patriotic Party (NPP) candidate, Nana Akufo-Addo has contested the presidency two times. This is the third time he is contesting. He is also 74 year-old. In Nigeria, change is synonymous with economic recession that is even getting to the level of depression. When majority of those who brought the change are now regretting it. Tell your people in Ghana that Nigerians are already regretting the change they made last year, which has plunged the country into serious economic hardship.
Tell them to learn from Nigerians and reject those preaching message of change to them. They should hold on to the government that they have now and beware of a change that will take their country to economic recession.”
