Jackson Mayor Chokwe Antar Lumumba sent out the following press release last night.
What could it be?
A website of news, commentary, culture, & jackassery in the Jackson, Mississippi area.

Jackson is going to annex Madison and Brandon
The mayor is going to boil water for everyone?
Kenneth Stokes is going to admit his son went to Harvard and his daughter went to Yale?
New city slogan - Jackson the city with hole
WTF? Jackson City Hall has a 'ceremonial office'?
This is easy...It will be announced that the Portrait of Jefferson Davis is rehung being hung in the Council Chambers.
Baby Chok is resigning?
They are making the entire city a Gun Free Zone?
JPS is getting an 'A' rating?
The zoo is going to be shuttered for good?
Zoo related I bet.
Lumumba Lite is going to step down and lead the Kushites out of Jackson!
Free straight pipes for all water customers
Jackson to become gun free zone
Mike Bloomberg, just in time for the primaries, has bought Jackson.
For 35 dollars and 11 cents, to be paid over 150 years.
He overpaid, but, it's well worth the pandering.
Sorry, Mike. No refunds, no returns.
500 million fed grant to fix all Jackson roads. Nothing could be bigger.
how unprofessional!
The Mayor is going to the Paris Air Show !!
Ooh! A guessing game until 5PM! Here's my choices
1) Zoo reopens
2) Zoo shuts down
3) Suing someone else related to water debacle
4) Declaring Jackson a sanctuary city
5) Another Farish Street Rejuvination project
I'm guessing a new task force will be formed to study something with his sister as Chairperson, Enoch Sanders as Vice Chairman & The Judge waiting to hand out blessings (as usual of course).
It's all about grabbing prime time in front of the camera.
zoo opening date
Jackson is pulling out of Mississippi and will be the capital of Kush. Yes, the previous statement is tongue in cheek. But the sad fact remains this statement is the desire of Baby Chok.
Jacktown no longer to be named after Andrew....but now Jesse.
Siemens settled out of court
All the potholes will be fixed and all streets will be paved by the end of February.
1) zoo (probably)
2) airport
3) Chokwe named Bernie Sanders' running mate
I'm guessing #1
Pretty ballsy to hold the presser at 5:00pm and ask the tv stations to air it live during their news shows. It better be huge or they'll never show up again.
Maybe it will be like the big Pearl announcement a couple weeks ago. New coach time for one of the schools.
Big remodeling of the Burger King on High St. in the works.
He knows people who actually have jobs will be traveling home and won't watch it.
All his supporters will be in front of their television screens.
Guessing it's more stupidity.
If it was truly big, it would have leaked by now.
I had a dream about this. The mayor is going to legalize marijuana and use the tax revenue for infrastructure.
Jackson is merging with Bolton.
I amend my prediction....no more marijuana arrests and an agreement with Jody Owens not to prosecute petty drug crimes.
Or Jackson is announcing a new level of "sanctuary city" in coordination with the county.
Judge Green sentenced a Jackson resident to 10, you read it right, 10 whole years for capitol murder! A record
What would be cool is if nobody shows.
Jackson and Pelahatchie are gonna merge.
WJTV just announced the City settled with Siemens.
Wow. This is HUGE! (/sarcasm)
They're gonna give Bennie credit for "One Lake" and he is finally going to support it and it will become reality. Many dirt haulers in Bolton will be enriched.
1. Baby Chok is going to be Bloomies running mate.
2. Baby Chok is "coming out."
3. The Pearl River has been flooding.
4. Baby Chok is moving to Cuba to be tourism minister.
5. Baby Chok is moving to N. Korea to be #2.
6. Jackson is receiving $75,000,000 from a deceased Nigerian Prince, believed to be a distant cousin of Baby Chok.
As little as he's accomplished...it won't have to be much.
It will have to be much, much bigger than being Zoo related for such a blatantly pretentious memo like that to go out...
1. Free water for N.E. Jackson (the rest of the city has been getting it free for years).
2. Crechales decided to stay on Hwy 80 and be an anchor restaurant.
3. COJ has been buying lotto tickets and WON!
Baby Chok has ordered the zoo animals to be released as a form of urban renewal. This will also save on the enormous food bills.
Announcing Jackson's Going Out of Business Sale!
Up to 90% off on dilapidated homes, firearms, and depressing memories of when McDowell Road didn't look like Chernobyl!
Joel B. Has been appointed as head of narcotics.
After a million+ dollar investment in a consulting firm, we are changing the colors on the police cruises to something more appealing.
Why is this agreement with Siemens considered huge news? Is Jackson so bad that this is something to brag about on the 5pm news?
$89,000,000 is huge. Good for Baby Chok. Hopefully the money will be put to good and efficient use.
Well that was boring. 90 million settlement with Siemens. Wonder how it will be wasted.
4:50 Hey Bruce!
So is this going to replace meters and/or billing system? (and/or training of water dept employees) I mean we still have the problem to correct, right? It's not like it's just a bucket of free money to use on something else.
Lol at all the Zoo comments. If only y’all knew what’s REALLY happening at the Zoo nowadays!!! There’s a reason they’re not allowing Media/Cameras/Visitors inside.
@8:40
You have any inside information? Inquiring minds want to know.
@9:16
I can't get inside but from outside it sounds like high stakes animal fights.
