Obama's Parting Letter To US President, Donald Trump Been Revealed
Former US President, Barack Obama had some written words of wisdom for President Donald Trump on the day of his Inauguration, mostly on how to keep the country running smoothly in his absence.
Obama's penned parting letter has just been revealed. The one he wrote on his way out for the then-incoming President, which he left in the Resolute desk of the Oval Office for Trump to find later.
In the letter, Obama tells Trump to help people less fortunate than both of them, by doing "everything we can (to) build more ladders of success for every child and family that's willing to work hard."
Obama also tells Trump to lead by example among the international community, and to respect the democratic institutions of the Office of President - which, he reminds Trump, is only temporary.
And finally, Obama suggests making time for family to get Trump through the rough patches, ending it with an offer of help anytime he might need it.

Opposition Leaders Been Banned In Gabon From Leaving The Country
Just of recent, on Sunday Gabon announced a ban on opposition leaders, including former top African Union official Jean Ping, from leaving the country in what it said was a "temporary, administrative measure".
Read More »
"This measure follows inflammatory comments by Jean Ping on August 18 when he called for public disorder, rebellion and insurrection," interior ministry spokesman Jean-Eric Nziengui Mangala said.
Ping, a 74-year-old career diplomat, was narrowly defeated by incumbent Ali Bongo in Gabon's August presidential election and accused the administration of electoral fraud.
A number of demonstrations have been held in support of Ping in cities around the country, leading to numerous arrests and clashes with police in the capital and the seaport of Port-Gentil.
On August 18, Ping called on the Gabonese "to rise up as one to solemnly mark (his) rise to power".
Mangala said the "temporary administrative measure" is aimed at leaders of political parties and others at the heart of the Coalition for the New Republic (CNR), which supports Ping.
The directive has affected former prime minister Casimir Oye Mba, who was scheduled to leave for France on Friday.
"At the airport, the police told me I couldn't leave and that they were only following orders," he said, adding that it was the third time that such a measure has prevented him from leaving Gabon.

Taylor Swift Spotted As The Bridesmaid At Friend's Wedding (See Photos)
Taylor Swift was seen at her best friend Abigail Anderson's wedding on Saturday. That's the same Abigail who she went to high school with and wrote the 2009 hit, Fifteen, about.
The 27-year-old looked stunning in a halter maroon gown with an A-line bottom as she tended to her pretty blonde friend at the splashy nuptials in Martha's Vineyard, a Massachusetts island that sits in the Atlantic Ocean just south of Cape Cod.
The pop star - who just released her revenge song Look What You Made Me Do earlier this week - seemed to keep her head down as she stayed behind the bride while they walked into a church.
Taylor wore her medium-length blonde hair down and in soft curls. She also had long bangs and matched her wine-colored lip to match her floor-length dress and had on flattering dark eye makeup. See full photo below..

''Its All Because She Is Better Than Nigerian Ladies'' - Nigerian Man Who Married Older American Woman Reveals Reason
US-based Muiz Adebiyi is married to an older American, Susan Smith. He talks about the over two-year-old marriage and why he took the decision to marry an older partner.
I am attracted to her because she is very cool, loving, understanding and protective. She has a better behaviour than slay mamas.
We had known each other for two years before we decided to get married three years after.
There were issues when we first declared our intentions to get married but our family members later understood that age is just a number and that love does not have limit. We are quite in love and happy with ourselves.
We both apologise when there are disagreements. But she does that first and more than I do because she is a wise wife who knows that the husband is the head of the house. She knows what marriage means.
I know that most people will think that I married her for the green card but I do not care because I was already a US citizen and that’s not from her.
We celebrate our wedding anniversary the same way godly people do theirs. We always go to the mall, do shopping and visit the pool side.
My wife is far better than Nigerian ladies in every positive way. She is a wife material.
