Welcome back to another interesting week of news reports. I wish to say that I was somehow disappointed at the number of entries the last time I conducted this contest and the format of the news report wasn't impressive.

I hope all participants can improve their writing style for news reports in this 4th edition.

Remember, one of the core reasons why this community was created was to fetch out some interesting news around the world where Steem is, and because of this, I will be running this special contest every week, feel free to share your news.

Are you living where we have Steem? Is there some Interesting news/happenings in your neighbourhood? Now is the time to share those interesting News, bring it on, I want to read them and I am sure other users would like to read them too.

---

Lately, I have read a lot of great news happening in various places around the world...., for instance in Nigeria ***" A student is accused of forging her JAMB (Joint Admission Matriculation Board) result to enter university and it has become trending in the country now.

---

These sometimes made us appreciate the work of a journalist, the efforts, and sometimes the risk they had to take in order to provide genuine and live information that could save us from danger, educate us or alert us at the moment and also in the future….

Let's bring that to the blog again...!!!

I am hungry to read about most of these happenings in your various environment. Many good reports can be discovered through this means, some top investors or users might be Interested to render assistance in case of an emergency - who knows?
