The family of an 8-year-old boy who received the surprise of his young life when former President Trump greeted him in person during his rally Wednesday in New York welcomed the surprise in their first public remarks on the matter.

Liam, who has a rare brain disorder, recently received a happy birthday letter from Trump just before he turned 8 – and his reaction to the surprise went viral.

"It's a pipe dream, I can never imagine, to thank the world for helping my son come this far and showing support and making his dream come true, because, believe it or not, this is definitely probably one of his big dreams, to meet Donald Trump, his hero since he was probably born. If not, very close," Liam's dad said, choking back tears. 

Doctors warned the family Liam might never walk, talk or eat on his own, according to his mother, Siobhan. 

"My buddy here plays ice hockey, he does roller hockey, he does very good in school, plays sports…we’re so proud of him," she told Fox News Digital in an interview moments before Trump’s rally at Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Uniondale near the family’s Long Island home.

She said he has been a Trump supporter since he was 18 months old.

"I'm supposed to be on that stage, but that doesn't matter because I got you the best present," video shows Trump telling Liam in a private meeting before walking out before a capacity crowd at Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Undiondale. "This is the best present you'll ever have."

Trump also gave Liam and his family a shout-out during the rally, telling the crowd about Liam's bravery and their visit while pointing him out from stage while the crowd erupted in applause.

"I'm in tears," Liam's mom told Fox News Digital. The original viral video, which caught national attention, showed Liam eagerly opening an envelope with a letter addressed to him from the former president. 

"This is a side of Donald Trump that nobody gets to see," said Kevin Smith, who shared the original video before it blew up online. "Most Americans, he said, only see Trump’s public persona and widespread media coverage."

The video opens with Liam sitting on a couch as his mom hands over the envelope. She asks if he wants to read the letter or have her read it, as he fights back tears realizing what is happening.

 "Dear Liam, Happy birthday, Mrs. Trump, and I hope you enjoy this special occasion surrounded by the love of your family and friends," Liam's mom, Siobhan reads.

"We are so encouraged by the strength and determination you have shown throughout your life and send our love and best wishes to you as you continue to fight," the letter continued. "Remember you are never alone, and we are keeping you in our thoughts and prayers for continued care and good health. May God bless you and your family, stay strong."

Siobhan then mentions that Trump knew Liam's birthday was coming up and asked him how he felt about him wishing him a happy birthday.

"Sincerely, can you tell me who signed that?" Siobhan asks.

"Donald Trump," Liam responds shakily, holding back tears. 

"He knew it was your birthday coming up? What do you say to him," Siobhan asks.

"Thank you, I love you," Liam says while also signing "I love you."

GARDEN OF EDEN FOUND IN WEST AFRICA - Onyeji Nnaji

-
Image
Copied from the Book; " Reality as Myth " by Onyeji Nnaji The beauty of the discovering of the Radar Rivers and their channels is that it disproves the western hegemonic claim of the Euphrates valley being the position of the birth of the great river, all the points that opposed their claims notwithstanding. Even God himself was very perfect in His creation by placing them in their positions, hierarchically, according to their birth. The first river that flowed located the Havilah land where there are good quality gold, bdellium and fine onyx stones. Pison was the oldest of the rivers and it flowed through the land of the southern Africa. The second river flowed northward to Ethiopia. It was when Africa had been overtaken by virtue of her proximity to the Great Water that other parts of the world began to encounter the remaining river; remarkable with Hiddekel.  Subscribe to  ajuede.com  to be updated on our posts on dailies.   The major problem towards

  Marine lieutenant colonel initially jailed for posting videos critical of the U.S. military’s leadership regarding the withdrawal from Afghanistan will go to trial on Oct. 14-15 at Camp Lejeune near Jacksonville, North Carolina, the Marine Corps announced on Friday. The special court martial hearing for Lt. Col.

TYPES OF PREPOSITION - Onyeji Nnaji

-
Image
                  INTRODUCTION In the history of syntax, prepositions alongside other parts of speech are considered as one of the esteemed contributions of the sophists (the itinerant teachers) to the development of the human language. Etymologically, the term “preposition” belonged to the group of word class Aristotle, the founder, referred to as “syndesmoi”. Others in this group are conjunction , article and pronoun . They were thus grouped by Aristotle because they were found to be performing related functions that are summed up in binding terms and exposing the gaps amidst sentences when they are not included. As a plural term, “syndesmoi” is a collective noun that stands for the group while, conjunction , the part of speech that binds together the discourse and finds gaps in its interpretation was called “syndesmos” (see Robins, 1968). Indicating the function of prepositions, Aristotle called it “Prothesis” (a part of speech placed before other words in a composition

Some Egyptian fans feel the frequent reports of protests by Nigerian players about non-payment of match allowances and bonuses are not doing the African continent any good. Within the last two months, Nigerian teams taking part in international competitions have protested over alleged non-payment of entitlements by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF). From the Flying Eagles’ participation at the 2019 FIFA U-20 World Cup in Poland, the Super Falcons involvement at the yet to be concluded FIFA Women’s World Cup in France and the Super Eagles’ campaign in the Egypt 2019 AFCON, it has been one squabble over alleged unpaid allowances or another. At the Cairo Stadium on Wednesday night, where the Pharaohs of Egypt defeated Congo 2-0 to move into the round of 16, the issue of Super Eagles’ protests over unpaid wages was the major topic by some of the fans. Those who spoke with The Guardian carpeted the Nigerian players for turning their participation at major championships into

THE ORIGIN AND HISTORY OF NSUKKA by Onyeji Nnaji

There are four generations…, and the fourth generation, which is the most exalted, is kingless and perfect. These people will enter the holy place of their Father and they will reside in rest … They are kings. They are the immortal within the mortal                      ( The Nag Hammadi, 219 ) O ne of the African homes that colonialism has completely deformed beyond certain level of recognition is Nsukka. Colonialism apart, the most affecting factor to the survival of the meaning which the rich cultural enclave, Nsukka, carries will best be blamed on postcolonial political structure. The biggest harm all these have against Nsukka as a people is that they rubbed her of the meaning of her name; their place of origin; how their fathers managed to come into their present abodes and who their ancestors were. A profound understanding of the excerpt above will open the door towards deciphering the meaning and origin of the people called Nsukka. Also read  Nsukka Civilization: The Peoplin
