Just a few days ago, a newly married couple was stopped on a highway in Enga.

Their future dreams were snuffed out without mercy. Tribalism. Enmity. Pure hatred.

Dead were the bride, her new husband, and her father-in-law. What kind of people carry out this form of ethnic terrorism?

Officially your new K100 note. Prime Minister James Marape announced this evening.

28/08/2025

While I have respect for Hon. Governor Allan Bird as a person and Governor for East Sepik, his antagonistic attack on Christianity makes me ask this question " Is Allan Bird an Atheist or a Saint?"
This nation was created by God and it belongs to God. As a nation, we must respect God and give reverence to Him as far as progress and prosperity of a nation is concerned. God destroyed those nations that mocked Him. Those nations that mocked God, God made them suffer.

We just witnessing as a nation that
- Governor Bird Voted against the Bill to declare this country a Christian nation.

- Governor Bird doesn't want the 400 years old Bible in Parliament.

- Governor Bird making mockery on National Repentence Day.

Is Governor Bird an Atheist or Saint?
Is Governor Bird against Prime Minister James Marape or is he against God?

Politician will come and go but what is required of PNG as a nation to give reverence to God must remain. This nation is too big for one person. This nation belongs to God, not politicians.

The wisdom filled founding father the late Grand Chief Sir Michael Thomas Somare under the grace of God peacefully achieved Independence for this country and committed this country to God.
James Marape will bow out of politics anytime. So will be Governor Bird but this nation will remain.
Let's don't mock God and play politics with bible and Christianity.
The progress, prosperity and protection of a nation depends on our reverence to God as a nation.

🚨 SAME DEPARTMENT, TWO DIFFERENT RULES! 🚨

Few officers have been terminated over minor issues or for simply fighting for their entitlements. Yet in Kokopo, a senior NJSS officer has been formally charged in court for producing po*******hy in the workplace — and is still employed.

⚖️ One rule for juniors, another for seniors.
👉 Justice must begin at home!
