WELTON STREET CAFE MOVES TO NEW LOCATION

We have exhausted our efforts in securing funding from government grants, government loans, business loans, and corporate grants. None of these efforts have been successful, so we are reaching out to our community for support. We are asking you all to support our move by giving what you can. You don't have to give a lot, but anything that you can moves us closer to our goal. This move is for you, so that we can continue to serve you.

If we have our village behind us, then we can continue to serve. Continue to be strong. And continue to be a pillar in Denver's Black Five Points community for years to come.

We are excited to move to our new space at 2883 Welton street. It is bigger and provides us with greater possibilities to serve you all. But right now, the space needs to built out. We need funding to retrofit the space as a restaurant. We need equipment. We need furnishings and fixtures. We need supplies. We need to make the space look like a restaurant. Though it will be bigger, and newer, and better, we will still be the same down home and down to earth restaurant and space that you have known and loved for decades.

Please support our move. Give what you can. Spread the word. We need you and we need each other to survive.

Diaspora Nigerians Canvass Support For APC Candidate

Nigerians of Ekiti State origin living in the United States of America (USA) have drummed support for Biodun Abayomi Oyebanji, the All Progressives Congress (APC) gubernatorial candidate in the forthcoming election.

In a statement, they said that Oyebanji is the best candidate in the gubernatorial election scheduled to hold in the state on June 18 2022 and appealed to the electorate to support him by overwhelmingly voting for the APC candidate.

Ola Ajayi, a civil engineer resident in the US, stated that Oyebanji’s wealth of experi­ence and his conviction that every citizen is a stakehold­er in governance gave him a clear edge for the number one seat in the state.

Ajayi, who is also the coor­dinator of “BAO’s Coterie in the North America, explained that as the immediate past Secretary to the Govern­ment of the State (SSG), for­mer Commissioner of Ekiti State’s Ministry of Budget, Economic Planning, and Ser­vice Delivery and Ministry of Integration and Inter-Govern­mental Affairs, Oyebanji has the required experience to lead the state.

The statement described Oyebanji as a man of the people who has spent most of his career working in the state and he is readily pre­pared and well-positioned to make a significant impact in the lives of the people of Ek­iti state by redefining gover­nance and delivering benefits of democracy.

Joy News’ Opoku Gakpo and Prince Appiah celebrated in the USA

Joy News’ journalists Joseph Opoku Gakpo and Prince Appiah have been celebrated at the Alltech One Conference in Kentucky in the USA for their exploits in agricultural reporting.

The two are among 10 journalists who were honoured by Alltech Inc (a US-based agri-input firm) and the International Federation of Agricultural Journalists (IFAJ) on Tuesday for awards they won in 2019 and 2020 but were celebrated only virtually because of the Covid-19 pandemic.

In May 2020, Opoku Gakpo was named winner of the IFAJ–Alltech International Award for Leadership in Agricultural Journalism, which recognises excellence and leadership by young journalists.

The award appreciated Opoku Gakpo for his exploits as an environmental, agriculture and rural development journalist, producing documentaries and other content for radio, television, and online platforms.

In July 2020, Luv FM’s Prince Appiah won the 2020 IFAJ Star Prize for Broadcast (audio). The award recognised him for producing outstanding audio content on agricultural challenges in Ghana.

Both Joy News journalists are members of the Ghana Agricultural and Rural Development Journalists Association (GARDJA), which is the local affiliate of the IFAJ.

President of GARDJA Richmond Frimpong congratulated the two, describing them as “strong pillars of agricultural journalism in Ghana.”

Opoku Gakpo told colleague journalists at the conference, “it’s great to re-celebrate this award in person at the One Ideas Conference, about two years after it was received. It shows Covid didn’t kill our spirits.”

“Let me use this opportunity to re-dedicate this award to our late friend, boss, and mentor Elvis Kwashie for all he sacrificed to make such celebrations by us, the younger ones, possible. We will continue to strive to make him proud,” he added.

Prince Appiah, who also works with Luv FM in Kumasi, said, “I am grateful to GARDJA and IFAJ but especially to Alltech for the opportunity and exposure which will go a long way to deepen my experience in Agri-Journalism.

“It is sad that Mr Saeed Ali Yaqub, who helped hone my skills in journalism, is not alive to be part of this recognition.”

Vice President of the IFAJ Steve Werblow also congratulated the winners and wished them well.

Dr Mark Lyons, president and CEO of Alltech, told the 38th annual Alltech ONE Conference, “compelling, fact-based communication has never been more important for society, and that holds especially true for agriculture.”
