Music transformed my life

Music transformed my life – Ese Mairo

Ese Mairo

Nigerian gospel musician Mairo Ese says music has transformed his life from poverty to fame.

Ese said in Lagos on Monday that most of his childhood dreams did not come true until he started singing.

The Lagos-based singer started professional music in 2008 and attributed his recent fame to grace and patience.

“I am privileged to have come from a family where we didn’t have all the good things of life around.

“But that gave my siblings and I a good understanding of being patient while you work hard towards your goal.

“Today, I make bold to say God’s grace has been sufficient all through my walk with him’’ he said.

The “Nani Gi’’ crowner added that his music was a reflection of his life and relationship with God.

“I live a life of worship everyday not minding the situation I find myself.

“It has helped to lay all my worries at the feet of God since that is the only thing a child of God can do instead of worrying about his or her troubles,’’ he said.

He urged upcoming gospel musicians to be persistent and remain focused to learn from mentors.

Ese, who recently released his single “Nani Gi’’ as a follow-up to his hit single “Ole Hallelujah’’, is steadily invited by music lovers to perform in concerts both home and abroad.

Mairo’s passion is worship and his underlying objective is to “lift up the name of Yahweh and bring people closer to their Creator’’.

He has released various songs beginning with “We Praise You’’ in 2005, “I Need You’’, “Gbagaun-gbagaun’’, “Iye Iye’’ and “You are the Reason’’ in 2014.

Houthis Claim Attack on Central Israel in Response to Gaza ‘Massacres’

The ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas has taken a concerning regional turn as the Houthi rebels in Yemen claimed responsibility for an attack on central Israel. The group announced this as part of their escalating response to what they describe as "massacres" in Gaza amid the Israeli military’s operations in the strip. Details of the Attack The Houthis, a Shiite militant group with ties to Iran, declared that they launched missile and drone strikes targeting Israel. While the exact impact of these attacks remains unclear, reports suggest that Israel’s defense systems intercepted several threats over its airspace. This marks a significant escalation as the Houthis widen their involvement in the conflict beyond their typical operations within Yemen and neighboring Saudi Arabia. The Houthis’ Justification In their statement, the Houthis framed the attack as retaliation for Israel’s military actions in Gaza, which they characterized as indiscriminate bombings resultin...

Fall of Assad is a Blow to Russia's Prestige

The potential fall of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, a long-standing ally of Russia, would mark a turning point in Moscow’s global influence, particularly in the Middle East. Steve Rosenberg’s analysis underscores the profound implications for Russia, which has invested heavily—both militarily and politically—in ensuring Assad’s survival over the past decade. This article delves into why Assad’s downfall would strike at the core of Russian prestige and what it could mean for the broader geopolitical landscape. Russia's Strategic Commitment to Syria Since the outbreak of the Syrian civil war in 2011, Russia has been a staunch supporter of Assad's regime. In 2015, Moscow launched a military intervention that proved decisive in stabilizing Assad’s hold on power. This intervention solidified Russia's role as a key power broker in the Middle East and demonstrated its willingness to project military power far beyond its borders. Syria is not just an ally for Russia; it is a...
