KINGSTON, Jamaica — Waterhouse FC ended their two-game losing streak with a commanding 3-0 triumph over Chapelton Maroons in a Jamaica Premier League first-round match at Drewsland Stadium on Monday. This victory marked Waterhouse FC’s third win of the season, propelling them to nine points and fifth place in the league standings. The team successfully maintained a first-half lead, a feat they had struggled with in their previous two matches, which resulted in defeats. Chapelton Maroons faced significant challenges after goalkeeper Prince-Daniel Smith was shown a second yellow card for entering the stands to interact with a fan, leaving his team with 10 players for the final minute of regulation and six minutes of added time. This loss extended Chapelton Maroons’ winless streak to three games, leaving them with just one point after a strong start to the season with three consecutive victories. Waterhouse FC’s Mario Simms opened the scoring in the 15th minute with a precise shot into the far left corner, assisted by Denardo Thomas’s incisive pass. Kenly Deacon sealed the win in the 85th minute with a close-range goal, while Omani Leacock capitalized on a penalty opportunity after being fouled by Kevin Graham, scoring past substitute goalkeeper Andrew Vanzie. Earlier in the day, Portmore United and Molynes United played to a goalless draw, with Molynes’ Jason Wright missing a penalty saved by goalkeeper Daniel Russell in the first half.

US revokes visa of Colombia’s Petro after he called on soldiers to disobey Trump
In a dramatic escalation of diplomatic tensions, the United States has revoked the visa of Colombian President Gustavo Petro following his controversial remarks at a pro-Palestinian rally outside the United Nations headquarters in New York City. Petro, a vocal critic of U.S. foreign policy, urged American soldiers to defy President Donald Trump’s orders and instead follow the ‘orders of humanity.’ His call for a global force to ‘free Palestine’ and his accusations of U.S. complicity in genocide in Gaza have further strained already fragile relations between Washington and Bogota. The U.S. State Department condemned Petro’s statements as ‘reckless and incendiary,’ prompting the visa revocation. Petro, who was in New York to address the UN General Assembly, criticized the decision as a violation of diplomatic immunity and international law. This incident marks the latest chapter in a tumultuous year for U.S.-Colombia relations, which have been marred by disputes over migration, drug trafficking, and military cooperation. Petro’s departure from the U.S. was reportedly underway when the State Department announced its decision. The Colombian leader also used his UN platform to call for criminal investigations into U.S. military strikes on suspected drug traffickers in South American waters. The revocation of Petro’s visa underscores the deepening rift between the two nations, once close allies in regional security efforts.

PM at UN: ‘Indifferent’ world deepening humanitarian crises
In a powerful address to the United Nations General Assembly, Prime Minister Mia Mottley of Barbados issued a stark warning about the escalating global suffering caused by indifference and unchecked violence. Speaking at the 80th session of the 193-nation assembly, Mottley highlighted the dire humanitarian crises in Sudan and Gaza, urging world leaders to take immediate action. She began by drawing attention to the conflict in Sudan, where 260,000 people have been trapped in the city of El Faso for 500 days. ‘While political progress stalls, those who attempt to escape are killed, and those who remain inside are starved,’ she stated, emphasizing that the world must not ignore this unfolding horror. Turning to the Middle East, Mottley condemned the ongoing violence in Gaza, describing it as ‘genocidal destruction.’ She called for the release of hostages taken on October 7 but stressed that the disproportionate attacks on Palestinians and the blockade of humanitarian aid are unacceptable. Mottley argued that sustainable peace cannot be achieved through military might but only through justice and dialogue. Quoting Roman historian Tacitus, she said, ‘They plunder, they butcher, they ravish, they make it desert and call it peace.’ The Prime Minister also highlighted urgent funding needs, citing UNICEF estimates of $66 million required in Gaza and $200 million in Sudan over the next three months for essential services. She concluded her speech with a poignant image of a young Palestinian girl carrying her sister through the rubble in Gaza, calling it a symbol of hope and resilience. ‘If a six-year-old can push past all the physical and emotional pain and still find hope, then we as leaders have a duty to summon that spirit,’ Mottley declared.

Lovell’s journey, spanning decades of teaching, practicing law, and serving in public office, offers valuable insights into the principles that have shaped his path and can inspire others to lead purposeful lives.

Lovell’s greatest satisfaction comes from seeing others succeed and communities thrive. As he celebrates this milestone, Lovell expresses gratitude for the support of family, friends, and colleagues. He hopes these lessons will inspire others to educate, serve, act with integrity, persevere, empower youth, embrace the world with rootedness, and leave a legacy of meaningful impact.
