The Nigerian Union of Pensioners in Benway State has said that it would continue to employ peaceful dialogue in negotiating the issues of pensions and gratuities. The reacting to a recent protest by the pensioners, the State Chairman of NUP Michael Wembe, said the Union has agreed with the State Government on the pattern of payment considering the economic condition of the State. He called on the aggrieved part members to stop the act of confrontation and rather team up with the Union to ensure regular payment is done. The original NUP are saying because the way MAKU did, they were complains that they're not satisfied with our agreement with the Government, that the government should be paying them on internal basis of what they wanted because they pay us 35 months. We say we have agreed that we want you 35 months but you will be a procedure that will have to approach the Government and then you will pay that and they will say okay we will go on protests. I said if we were talking to the Governor, the Governor has agreed to us, what should you do more on protests because most things will ask them to do it. Hello, hope you enjoyed the news.

I'm sure awesome there you go that's amazing and how long have you been rent-free we've been on the road for 18 months now yeah our harbor main to Key West and now we're going to Olympic to Southern Cali perhaps Baha that's amazing yeah something I talked about a lot is when you get rid of an apartment you open yourself up to more freedom and adventure because you're not tied down to a mortgage or rent or anything like that so I'm a big fan of that kind of stuff yeah these are my daughter's charity she's 23 just kidding they're 15 and 13 so my wife does most awesome that's the road for one more year and work and everybody find you online if you just search the hashtag road sweet home perfect man right on high five very nice to meet you yeah likewise a little bit past a place called second beach some kind of a walk down the water as you can see got my raincoat on it has been raining and it just kind of let up and the sun's kind of coming out but yeah it's really beautiful down here and very very uninhabited the town of La Push is right up there and I believe it is an Indian reservation area and unfortunately if you guys haven't been to an Indian reservation a lot of them are financially struggling and so it's always kind of I don't know sad to see because all this used to be all their land check out this tree it's like a candle holder it's got like trees on trees on trees that is so cool these three quarters of the way down the trail there is this tree with its trunks and people have placed muscle shells here clam shells rocks feathers a stick with some yarn around it and then on inside inside there's like I think that's like clam shell that's a little clam shell more feathers it seems to me there's a quarter definitely gonna leave that there not taking that for laundry bottle cap here's a little kind of impromptu art a cork anyways you get the idea pair of shoes this seems like there's even a hoof from like a cow or something I would guess because we are in a Native American area that this tree has some kind of special significance if anybody knows please comment below all right here we go here's the beach reveal absolutely incredible 10 out of 10 and remember yesterday's video my comment about wet logs well we got some wet logs today and also moist logs and sand is a terrible terrible combination trust me grew up in the ocean as a little surf rat and wet and log is bad but wet and log and sand is even worse freshens seems like any other beach I've ever been to except it's beautiful and there's green trees over here right on the ocean with big ol rock so it's slightly different but you know got the usual suspects again ocean sand and seagulls one thing I was thinking of is that up here in the Pacific Northwest where there are giant trees it's hard to see where you came out of the trail app but luckily you can see the trailhead with that target we'll just call it a target on that tree right there so that's where the trail starts I am gonna place something in what I call the wishing tree which is that tree that we saw earlier but I'm gonna leave this little guy down here because it's it used to be alive so I'm gonna grab like a special rock and I'll make a wish I'll place it inside there that way won't be disturbing the you know ecosystem and stuff hey how about this rock we're at the wishing tree now this rock represents all of humanity we are different colors but we are one so with this rock I wish that everyone who is chasing their dreams to become something bigger but their wishes come true we're almost at the furthest northwest part of the entire United States except for Alaska of course that's way up there but what a treat this is look at how beautiful this whole area is and I just want to let you know across the way is Canada Vancouver Island and or many many shipping containers going in and out probably to Seattle and Olympia and those kinds of areas but wow tons of pullouts here if anybody wants to come and park on the side of the road and you know camp overnight I'd say go for it you know like I said yesterday's video keeps saying if nobody's around nobody's around to care so like this spot for example probably not the best spot because you're right on a curve but it is absolutely stunning and there are plenty of places just like this we are over at the Cape flattery trail this is the entrance it almost kind of looks like the entrance to a horror film also looks like there are some hiking sticks here provided that's pretty cool place you can go in the continental United States it is absolutely stunning up here you guys know what this is this is my freaking parking spot for the night check this out so bus road awesome this parking spot is or like to or how I like to say my home for the evening this is absolutely incredible and 100% fat free and 100% free totally freaking free this is awesome telling you guys you got to get out there you got to do the bus life got to jump in a van get ready your freaking apartment give a middle finger to your landlord and just hit the road I mean I know it's hard to figure out money but if you can figure that out and just be free or live in a city you know do stealth camping you know save on the rent and then you can take more trips like this this is freaking awesome this is a setup going on we got dinner cooking we got that mediocre Campbell soup with a giant package of vegetables in there heating up we also have over here time-lapse which you will see after I get done talking and again we have this beautiful sunset well since it's that way but we have the beautiful waterfront right here it looks like tire marks and that behind the bus where I parked looks like somebody backed right down here and that does sound fun I don't know how high the tide will be and so I'll just play it safe and stay up there because it is low tide right now that means tide will be coming up I know your time is valuable and I do appreciate you spending it with me see you on the road tomorrow


My upbringing was challenging. I had a single mother. She had four children to look after on her own. However, we were loved and supported and well educated. That was important to mum. When I was young and we were struggling, there were some beautiful people that really helped us as a family. That sense of community was really strong. I just knew the power of the community to raise a child really. Anything we can do to sort of contribute to that now is really important to me. I understand how important it is to have support and how sometimes it's even easier if it's from someone you don't know. I won a scholarship when I was at uni and it helped me enormously. I got to meet a lot of other Aboriginal people at Newcastle Uni. It's about that sense of belonging that's a really important part of human nature and be accepted and welcomed by that group. As a proud Gomeroi man, it's really important to be connected to other Aboriginal people. So I was a matured age student. I paid them for my own university fees. Weekends, nights and I did an undergraduate degree and then a master's degree. And I saw the value of that. So it helped me to find my life journey. So I just think an education is a great thing to have. Really wanting to help other children who may not have had a great start in life who have unbelievable potential but just never had those right avenues to be able to really show the world what they've got. That was really the driving force for me to suggest it to Rob. Hey, why don't we do this? It's really important for us to leave a legacy through the University of Newcastle and to help young people from disadvantaged backgrounds to be able to come to university. The incident she made, the suggestion I thought was a good idea. There was really no hesitation. I'm really proud of it. We explained the rationale behind it to those that we spoke to and they went, good on you. Our legacy is giving to other people the same opportunity we had in terms of tertiary education and the long-term positive effects that can have on people. The process of going through university was fantastic for me. So the bequest to me is doing exactly that. I'm giving someone else the opportunity to follow a path that I followed and made me a better person. By really helping one person, we're helping the whole community and the family. Because it's not just the recipient. It's the stone in the pond thing. They have positive outcomes that will reflect on those around them.


Hi guys, it's that special time of the year. It's haul time! Hey everybody, welcome to another exciting episode here at a Week in Geekdom on YouTube. My name is Jordan Menendez and if you're new here, if you're part of the wonderful subscribers that have recently joined this nerdy channel, thank you. Thank you very much. You guys are the best. Now if you don't know what's happening at the end of every month, I do a geek haul, if you will, of all the nerdy acquisitions. However, this time we're running a little bit late. This is the June haul, but it's already July. I wanted to wait for every single June package because I think since last year, whenever I did, or actually since forever, since I've been doing haul videos, I always say, oh, a package or two did not arrive in time. So I said, you know what, people can wait. I'm going to post a few videos in the meantime, but people can wait until I get everything because I know that people like to watch haul videos. Unfortunately, a package simply did not arrive and I could not wait any longer and I just had to do the video. So whatever. Besides, it was only like three books, which I'll mention later in the video. But most of the June stuff is here. Like I said, it was just three things that are missing or four. I don't know. So yeah, books, manga, toys, movies, all that fun stuff. So yeah, haul time, the best of times. I love doing these. And if you want me to review a book from this whole mess from this pile that I'm going to show you, please let me know down below in the comments section. Like, hey, could you please do like a discussion video or review on said item? I would love to do so. Let us begin with manga. I got the 13th volume of My Hero Academia. This thing has just exploded in popularity. Remember when I got the first book? If you scroll back, I think it's like two years ago or something like that.   It's insane. I love the rise of the in popularity of the Shonen. And it's with good reason. It's an awesome series. The anime is firing in all cylinders and the manga is just really, really awesome. I didn't get My Hero Vigilantes, I think it's called. That is missing from this haul. So yeah, four books. Something of a guilty pleasure, man. I am a huge fan. One of my favorite franchises ever is Gundam. I love the Gundam series, but unfortunately it's so big that I haven't watched everything. And I've only seen like a couple of universal sentry things. Like I know the bare bones info, basic info on the UC stuff. I've only watched the after colonies, I think, the alternate realities and all the different shows that have come after Gundam Wing and G Gundam, Gundam C, Destiny, Gundam 00 and all the other ones that I'm forgetting. But the UC stuff, I know it's like the best one and it's one of my nerd shames, if you will. But that will change because I want to dive right into the UC stuff and maybe, just maybe I might do a video on the Gundam franchise. I don't know. I'm trying to do new things on the channel so we'll see where that takes us. But as of this video, I did get Mobile Suit Gundam Origin, the Origin Volume 1. This is a 12 series, hardcover series, I should say. Reimagining or retelling the OG Gundam series with a few remixes here and there with aesthetics and plot points and stuff. It's really, it's really frickin' good. I wanted to do a video on it, but I want to read more of these books until I can give you like a full fledged review, not just like Volume 1 and then wait around. And a really nice presentation. I love this hardcover plus this striking image of the Gundam right there. You get some colored pages. What am I doing? There you go. Some colored pages and everything is just really frickin' smooth. I love this so much. I can't wait to talk about it in a future video. So yeah, that's it for the manga. I was missing Vigilantes and what was the other one? Oh yeah, Prison School Volume 10. It's not in this video. You'll see it eventually, my NSFW title in the haul. Those two books did not arrive. So let's move on to trade paperbacks because I love me some trade paperbacks. From DC, I had to do it. Aquaman Tempest. I am so grateful for DC for printing this series for the very first time. This was released in 1994 or 1995 or something like this from Filiimanas. And it had never gotten a collected edition. This is the very first time. And if you love the character of Garth, Aqualad, you gotta pick this up. I will cover it in a future video as I continue my Aquaman journey. I've been doing different Aquaman videos every month and you'll see that eventually as well. Alright, so the next book on the list back when the new 52 was going, I did not pick that book up as it was being published, I guess. And I think a couple of months ago I did a haul where I mentioned the first book and the fact that I needed to get the other ones. And lately I noticed that it has gone out of stock in different places. So I went ahead and picked up, you know, just in case Frankenstein, Agents of Shade, Volume 2, this is the end of that run. And basically if you don't know what Frankenstein Agent of Shade is, here's the cover. Yeah, Shade is basically BPRD and Frankenstein is your hellboy, but in the DC Comics universe. It's really fun, guys. And it's written by Jeff Lamere and Matt Kent. I highly recommend it. It's a ton of fun. Speaking of out-of-print books, the other one I really liked the dark label when the new 52 did its thing. I loved Justice League Dark. That's one of my favorite DC groups or comic book teams, I guess. So one of the other books I was reading was Frankenstein, I, Vampire and Demon Knights. The first book is out of stock and it's fetching for quite some penny online on the Amazon third party list or eBay and that stuff. So if you can find it for retail price, go get it. And if you find it for less, then you are an excellent deal hunter. I did get Book 2. I only had Volume 1 and I was missing Book 2. The Avalon Trap. Tramp. The Avalon Trap and the equally hard to find for a decent price. Volume 3, this is the end of the series. The Gathering Storm. So yeah, Demon Knights, an awesome series. Atragend the Demon being one of my favorite DC characters. And I had to get it. This is an awesome run and I'm happy that I own it and don't have to worry about out-of-print trade paperbacks. Anyways, moving on to Marvel trades. This is a character that I did not care for when it first debuted at Image Comics at all. I wasn't much of an image reader in the 90s. I only read like your Spiderman's on Marvel and Aquaman and stuff like that. So my exposure to Image Comics was in the early 2000s where I started learning about who is who and all that stuff. You gotta remember, if you don't know I think I've told the story. If not, it might have been on Omni Bros. or somewhere. But I only started like seriously collecting books like in mid-2000s. Before, you know, I was more into anime and manga. That was my thing. So I'm not as an experienced hunter if you will, compared to some of you guys out there. So like I was mentioning, I was not a fan of this character but as soon as it was introduced in the Marvel Universe, I was hooked. I went back and I read some of the stories and if you're wondering what the hell I'm talking about is Angela. She's one of my favorite Marvel characters now. I love her design and her story, the way it was reworked when she entered with the whole 10th realm. I think it was 10th realm with Loki and Thor and all that stuff. I loved it. And I had not read her two solo series, which, you know, here's Volume 1 as Guardian Assassin and Volume 2, Queen of Hell. The art in it is awesome. I love the art. It's pretty awesome, man. Like seriously, look at that. That is really awesome. Yeah, I was not a fan when she was in Spawn because I don't know why I kept the mystery about the character for so long, but yeah, when she was in Spawn, when she debuted in Spawn, I did not, I guess she was a bright spot. I'm not the biggest Spawn fan, but when she transitioned, I loved her stories in the Marvel world with the Guardians and now with her solo titles and her connections at Asgard and all that stuff. It's really cool. Speaking of powerful ladies, I had to pick up because of the Omnibus Collector Community Group on Facebook, Charles Sol's She-Hulk Run. This is Volume 1, Volume 2. I love me some She-Hulk. She's awesome. Next up, one of my favorite characters from the Marvel Universe, Black Bolt. This is Volume 2 of his solo series, Home Free. This is fantastic. If you get an opportunity, please check this book out. I did a review on it. I should be linking that somewhere in this video. And last home video, I talked about this whole run, Red Hulk, and I finally finished getting all the books, all eight volumes. Now I can do that mini read-a-thon and bring to you a Red Hulk analysis, if you will. So the previous video, the previous home video, I talked about most of these books, the ones that were missing. Of course, let me recap just in case. Last month, I got Red Hulk Scorched Earth. Planet Red Hulk. This is new. Fear itself, Hulk and Dracula. This was hard to find, simply because most of these sellers were selling the hardcover version. I wanted the trade. And for some reason, not a lot of people are selling the trade. That's why it was a little harder to find. But eventually I did. Hulk of Arabia. You got Haunted. There you go, Haunted. And this was the other one that was missing from the previous video, Mayan Rule. I did feature this last time, Red She-Hulk Volume 1, but I did not feature the last one, Red She-Hulk Volume 2. So that's it for trades. A lot of skinny trades. I love getting some really skinny trades for cheap. Most of them I got for like 50% off or more. It was really fun hunting these books down. Let's move on to hardcovers. From Image, I got Invincible Ultimate Collection Volume 12. If you have been following this channel, I have been doing an Invincible comic book discussion. I have basically... I've been doing videos on every hardcover volume. So there will be 12 of them. As of this recording we've done, we've published 7 of them. The rest of the videos are coming real soon. So stay tuned for that. I really like doing those. And it gives me some time to talk about one of my favorite comic book series. The end on this was insanely good in my opinion. Speaking of insanely good, Miles Morales, Puerto Rican Spider-Man. I got the Omnibus. Of course it has that whacked out spine issue. I got a glue, the spine and all that stuff. So I'm not going to open it here. But yeah, it did arrive a little bit banged up. So I will be fixing that. From the DC world, this is Superman, Rebirth, Delex Edition, what is this? Volume 2. And I'm only doing this for this book. Because you've already seen it. Let me just fanboy here for a second. This is the book without the dust jacket. I love me some Multiversity, one of my favorite modern DC runs. I love that book so much. And to get some Aquawoman action. Alright. Next up, Batman, Rebirth, Delex Edition, Volume 2. And I'm not going to collect every single Rebirth hardcover. I think I'm just going to stick to Superman, Batman. Just because I'm not a fan of getting everything in hardcover. And the only series I would do that for would be Aquaman. And unfortunately, DC just doesn't seem to care about Aquaman and doesn't want to publish the Delex hardcovers. Whatever. For real cheap, I got the Nail, the complete Delex Edition. I got this for like 90% off. It's insane. It's brand new. I've never actually read it. It's one of those stories that is highly regarded, this Elseworld tale. And a lot of people were recommending it to me, so I finally got it. Unfortunately, half of these books arrived. It is Dark Knight's Metal Delex Edition, the main series. I love that metal foil. Frickin badass. And Dark Knight's Metal. Dark Knight's Rising. That's a lot of darks and a lot of knights and a lot of medals. I'm missing the resistance trade paperback. That was one of the other four that I talked about. And it's not technically a June haul, but I did get pretty late the Road to Metal thing, whatever. I wasn't going to get it because most of the stuff in there I already have, the Grant Morrison Batman stuff, the New 52 Batman stuff. The only thing that was in there that was of value to me were the two one shots. And I wasn't going to pay that amount for just a full hardcover for two issues. But then I go to I think it was comicsology to look up for the two issues and the grand total is like only like two or three dollars less than an IST price. Nah, homie don't play that. I'll get, I got the book so don't worry about it and plus it'll match the set with the other two. Next up, this is a wonderful fantastic gift from my good friend Felipe. Gracias. I got The Wake from Vertigo, the hardcover edition. I had this in singles and I never upgraded. Actually, I have volume one signed by Scott Snyder. I love The Wake even though, you know, the second half it is what it is. Kid Eternity, the deluxe edition from Grant Morrison and from Brian Azzarillo and Eduardo Rizzo is Spaceman, the deluxe editions. And look forward to videos on these three hard covers from Vertigo, sort of this Vertigo three pack. Thank you Felipe. Movies, not the whole lot but some pretty sweet stuff. Anime-wise, I got one of my favorite franchises, Lupin the Third. This is part four, The Italian Adventure, the complete series on Blu-ray that's 26 episodes and this to me, man, this Lupin's badass. Lupin is one of the greatest anime in my opinion and the animation on this thing is insane. If you haven't checked it out you can do so. Basically, if you're new to Lupin just look at the jacket and that will indicate the series. You don't need to watch any series just sort of most of these series are self-contained. There's the green jacket, there's the red, pink and now blue, I think. I got that right. But yeah, really, really fun stuff. Just awesome. Let's see what I have to slip cover because I love the interior on this. Just really amazing artwork. I can't recommend this enough. And if you're still not convinced check out look for Lupin the Third part for the opening. It's probably on YouTube, you can check it out. It's pretty bangin'. These two movies are classics and I found them for cheap. Goodfellas and The Shining two excellent movies that for some reason I never bothered collecting them on Blu-ray, but if you've never seen them then I highly recommend them. They're classic movies. A little 4K haul action. I did get Coco. Coco. A lot of people seem to cry in this movie. I just like it for the cool visuals. It's a great animated story. Don't get me wrong, but I guess I'm a monster because I didn't cry with Coco. And to finish off my MCU collection Thor Ragnarok on 4K. The only thing that's missing is friggin' Infinity War. Whenever that drops I think it's in late August or something. Before we close this I wanted to do figures, you might have seen this when I moved it. Funko Pops. Because I love me some pops. It's Death from Sandman. It's a PX Previews exclusive. And I gotta say I love this pop so much. Take a look. It's pretty badass. And I love the attention to detail on the box art. I'm typically... I open these. I don't really keep them in box. But I love it when you do this and you give me like exclusive art instead of here's more products that you can buy. It looks cheap. With this, this is very... You can display this like it is and be proud of like having this on the shelf like this. It's really cool, man. Death is one of my favorite characters from Gaiman's Sandman. This huge thing. If you follow me on social media in some shape or form you know my crazy obsession with Star Wars porgs. These things are adorable and I waited for so long to get this 10 inch version simply because there are no targets over here. So if you want to buy it it costs you a little bit because everybody's going to ship it on a huge box and stuff. But I finally found a good deal on it. So yeah. The love affair with porgs continues and I'm going to leave them right there. Finally, let's do statues because I'm sort of a statue collector now. I love Street Fighter and this next one might be a little risqué. I don't really care. I don't really mind. It's awesome. My favorite Street Fighter character. One of my favorite ladies in video games. It's Chun Lee, the battle costume version. And yeah. This is pretty friggin fantastic. Look at this beauty right there. Yep. It's pretty badass. I don't know if you can see it with all the plastic and stuff. And last but not least continuing my Bombshell expansion. So thank you to my good friend Frank for getting this for me. You sir are a gentleman and a scholar. It is one of the rarer which is insane to me that these are so rare now. Bombshells. It is the Hawkerl Bombshell. This statue is fantastic. I will probably do a spotlight review on it pretty soon. Same. I still need Poison Ivy Black Canary and Frickin Batwoman. She's rare now. I can't find them anywhere. Everybody wants to charge you three times the amount of the original price which is just mind boggling. But what are you going to do? Guys, that's it for hauls. Like I said, I was missing four books. But I think we did pretty well to finish off this haul. If you want me to review something, please let me know down below and say hey, we can geek them. Can you review this? I will happily do so.
