Edge's News: Her Royal Majesty Queen Elizabeth II

-

A very very sad day for the Royal family, a sad day for United Kingdom, a sad day for the world, a sad day for the commonwealth of Nations and a very very sad day for us all the people. As we witnessed the end of her 70 years reign, Her Royal Majesty Queen Elizabeth II has passed-on.


Queen Elizabeth II, died on Thursday in her Scotland home in Balmoral.  The Queen maintained the popularity of the monarchy across decades of seismic political, social and cultural change that threatened to make it an anachronism.

A dignified, dependable figure who reigned longer than any other British monarch, Elizabeth helped steer the institution into the modern world. Stripping away court ritual and making it somewhat more open and accessible, all in the glare of an increasingly intrusive and often hostile media.


As our National Anthem changes to "GOD save the King", we will forever remember the anthem we’ve sang for almost  seven decades of “GOD save the Queen”, as its was sang then may she now rest in perfect peace in the bosom of our Lord, knowing unequivocally that she did a tremendous job not just for United Kingdom but the World and humanity. 


With God on his side, King Charles III, is well prepared to carry on, through your teaching and guidance over the years, with an unshakable sense of duty that you have instilled in the Royal family. 


Queen Elizabeth II was a force for good in this world.


For the last time let me sing our National Anthem in honour of our beloved Queen Elizabeth II


God save our gracious Queen!
Long live our noble Queen!
God save the Queen!
Send her victorious,
Happy and glorious,
Long to reign over us,
God save the Queen.


Thy choicest gifts in store
On her be pleased to pour,
Long may she reign.
May she defend our laws,
And ever give us cause,
To sing with heart and voice,
God save the Queen.


Before anyone debates the above statement, please take a good look in the mirror because no one and I repeat no one is perfect. 


God Bless us all.

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu Tax Reform

President Bola Tinubu’s tax reform bills have sparked a lively debate in Nigeria. Many experts believe that if implemented effectively, these reforms could significantly benefit the country and its citizens. The proposed reforms aim to lay the foundation for Nigeria’s fiscal policy and are based on recommendations from the Taiwo Oyedele led Presidential Committee on Fiscal Policy and Tax Reforms. *Key Provisions of the Tax Reform Bills* The tax reform bills introduce several key changes to Nigeria’s tax laws. Among the notable provisions are: - *Tax Exemption for Low-Income Earners*: The proposed Nigeria Tax Bill offers tax relief to average Nigerian salary earners by exempting individuals earning below N800,000 per year from paying taxes. - *Reduced Tax Rates for Small Businesses*: The bill also proposes to exempt small businesses with annual incomes below N25 million from paying profit taxes. Additionally, the top profit tax rate for larger companies would be reduced from 30% t...

Could President Trump issue an executive order to abolish birthright citizenship?

-
Image
President Donald Trump’s recent claims that he has the authority to end birthright citizenship through an executive order have sparked a heated debate. However, most constitutional scholars argue that such an action would be unconstitutional and likely to face legal challenges. *The 14th Amendment* The 14th Amendment to the United States Constitution, ratified in 1868, explicitly states that “all persons born or naturalised in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside” ¹. This amendment was initially intended to grant citizenship to recently freed slaves, but it has also been interpreted to confer birthright citizenship on anyone born on American soil. *Supreme Court Precedents* The Supreme Court has consistently upheld the birthright citizenship provision of the 14th Amendment in numerous cases. In United States v. Wong Kim Ark (1898), the court ruled that a child born in the United States to Chin...

FIRST INAUGURAL ADDRESS BY PRESIDENT BOLA AHMED TINUBU 29 MAY 2023 THE NIGERIAN IDEAL My Fellow Citizens,   I stand before you honoured to assume the sacred mandate you have given me. My love for this nation is abiding. My confidence in its people, unwavering. And my faith in God Almighty, absolute. I know that His hand shall provide the needed moral strength and clarity of purpose in those instances when we seem to have reached the limits of our human capacity.   This day is bold and majestic yet bright and full of spirit, as is our precious nation.   As a nation, we have long ago decided to march beyond the dimness of night into the open day of renewed national hope.   The question we now ask ourselves is whether to remain faithful to the work inherent in building a better society or retreat into the shadows of our unmet potential.   For me, there is but one answer. We are too great a nation and too grounded as a people to rob ourselves of our finest destiny. ...

Back in October, Apple agreed to pay $95 million to settle an ongoing class action lawsuit that accused the company of violating various U.S. laws and regulations by providing customers with refurbished replacement devices instead of new devices when repairs were required under AppleCare. Administrators handling the case have now updated the "Replacement Device Lawsuit" website with details on the settlement, and have started sending out emails to customers who might be eligible for a payment after the settlement is finalised. Customers who purchased an ‌AppleCare‌ Protection Plan or ‌AppleCare‌+ for an iPhone or iPad between July 20, 2012 and September, 30, 2021 and who received a refurbished replacement device from Apple are included in the lawsuit. Apple's Repair Terms and Conditions in the United States make it clear that the company might use "parts or products that are new or refurbished and equivalent to new in performance and reliability" when repa...
