Haraja Usman Baba, President of the Police Officers Wives Association (POWA) and wife of Usman Alkali Baba, the Inspector-General of Police, says she will remove beer parlours from police barracks.
She also threatened to evict errant officers who flout the directive.
Mrs Baba stated this while addressing the association members at the POWA Hall in Ikeja, Lagos state.
“During my inspection yesterday, I saw a lot of beer parlours in barracks. I know it is you people that encouraged such. You should try and speak to your husbands to follow the rules and regulations of the barracks,” she said.
The IGP’s wife disclosed that a signal would be sent to the Force headquarters to relocate beer parlours.
“We are going to send signals immediately for the relocation of the beer parlours. If you don’t keep to it, you will be ejected out of the barracks.
“I grew up in the barracks because my father was a policeman. Then, there was no beer parlour. And with the future of our children in the barracks, we should be careful because these children are more intelligent than us,’‘ she said.
Speaking further, she bemoaned the “dirty” state of barracks while announcing that there would be continuous sanitation exercises until they are retired.
What I saw at the barracks was devastating. The barracks were unkempt. It was very dirty. If there is no sanitation nationwide, can’t you sanitise yourself, or don’t we have barracks leaders?
“There is going to be sanitation henceforth. It is going to be a continuous exercise until we are retired”, she stated.

Popular Nigerian comedian and Instagram sensation, Abdulgafar Ahmad Oluwatoyin aka The Cute Abiola, has wedded his girlfriend.
The Naval officer cum entertainer got married to his woman in a private ceremony that took place in Ogbomosho, Oyo state on Friday, May 28.
Videos from their traditional wedding surfaced online and reactions have started trailing the development considering his alleged relationship with Influencer Adeherself.
Actress, Remilekun Oshodi, popularly known as Remi Surutu, has been in very high spirits since the birth of her first grandchild, who she says shares a striking resemblance with her late daughter.
In an interview with Saturday Beats, Surutu said, “Words cannot describe the joy I am experiencing. I am now a grandmother. My second and only surviving daughter was delivered a baby girl last Thursday. I believe my late daughter (first born) is back with me.
“There is no more weeping for me. The baby is my late daughter’s carbon copy. The emptiness of these past years has disappeared and I feel so fulfilled. I never knew I would become a grandmother this soon”.
A Nigerian native doctor, Ossy Opara has called out his baby mama for allegedly assaulting his mother leading to serious health implications.
Ossy revealed that his mum has been suffering terribly owing to the beatings she received from Blessing, his baby mama.
The Dibia made this known in a Children’s Day message to his kids, saying that they may not get to see their grandmother again because her “health is failing her as a result of the beatings she received” from their mother.
He wrote on Facebook; “Ikechukwu Opara, Chukwuemeka Opara, and Munachimso Opara. Happy children’s day to you my sons.
This is the last children’s day that you will celebrate with me by proxy in an inhumane way. It is likely that you may not meet your grandmother (my mom) alive when you come back, I tried to make you see your grandmother today (her health is failing her as a result of the beatings she received from your mother Blessing ontop her health condition). I tired so hard and made calls that I wasn’t supposed to make, all for the love of family. The internet never forgets.
I will not indict myself in anyway, but you will hear the story of how your father is a Daredevil, you will look at me and be proud to have a father, an only son that conquers multitude of brethren. Ochubara dike n’ohia, that’s what you will call me. It is a challenge, and a promise. A mortal one, till I die.”
Edun, who will clock 40 in two weeks, told Saturday Beats that his mother wanted him to get married so eagerly that she bought him diamond rings to propose to a lady.
He said, “I am not interested in the institution called marriage. I can say this because I am in control of my decisions. I set my principles, follow my guiding philosophies and do only what I want to do. I have not been lucky with love. I give out a lot of love but I do not get the same measure back. It is very hard to find people who genuinely reciprocate the kind of love I give.

There have been reports that Nollywood actress Regina Daniels’ mother, Rita, recently tied the knot to a younger lover.
These reports have been confirmed to be untrue by her son, Lawrence, who said the photos circulating on social media of his mother are from an upcoming movie.
“The photos are from a movie scene. Social media can catch their cruise but they will be shocked when they eventually see the movie,” he told The Nation.
Rumours of the movie producer’s marriage to a younger lover surfaced a few days ago. In the photos, Rita is seen posing with a younger man in different traditional attires while guests are seen in the background.
Interestingly, she took to her Instagram page on Wednesday, May 26, 2021, where she shared a post “True Love Wins.”
Rita came under severe criticisms online as she was accused of marrying her daughter off to an older man while she picked a younger lover for herself.
The young man is Larry Zuka is an American-based singer and songwriter.
Peter Gene Hernandez was born on October 8, 1985, in Honolulu, Hawaii, singer-songwriter Bruno Mars grew up in a very musical family. His father, Pete, was a Latin percussionist from Brooklyn, and his mother, Bernadette (“Bernie”), was a singer. Mars received his nickname, “Bruno,” while he was still a baby. “The name Bruno came from baby times,” older sister Jamie explained. “Bruno was always so confident, independent, really strong-willed and kind of a brute—hence the name Bruno—and it kind of just stuck.”
Mars attended Roosevelt High School, where he and several friends formed a band, the School Boys, performing classic oldies hits alongside his family’s act at the Ilikai Hotel in Honolulu. Mars credits his fearless stage presence to his unusual childhood. “Performing from such a young age just got me so comfortable on stage,” he said. “Growing up performing—that was normal for me. Everyone in my family sings, plays instruments. It’s what we do.”
By the early 2000s, Mars had begun to find success by writing songs for several popular artists, including Flo Rida’s smash hit “Right ‘Round,” Brandy’s “Long Distance” and Travie McCoy’s “Billionaire.” Mars also produced and co-wrote K’Naan’s “Wavin’ Flag,” Coca-Cola’s theme song for the 2010 FIFA World Cup.
After several years as one of the pop music industry’s premier songwriters, Mars finally broke out as a singer in his own right with the 2010 hit “Nothin’ on You.” The song was written for the Atlantic Records rapper B.o.B., but the record label decided to enlist Mars himself to croon the heartfelt chorus. The track proved an enormous hit, skyrocketing to No. 1 on the Billboard singles chart, and instantly transforming Bruno Mars from a behind-the-scenes composer into a pop performer.
Mars continued his immensely successful run with the release of his third studio effort, 24K Magic, in November 2016. The album included the catchy title track, a retro-tinted dance number in the vein of “Uptown Funk,” as well as the sultry “That’s What I Like,” which climbed to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100.

In 2016, Mars returned with another funk-flavored hit, “24K Magic,” and its parent album of the same title. Influenced by soul, funk, and ’90s R&B, 24K Magic peaked at number two on the Billboard 200 and produced Mars’ seventh chart-topper, “That’s What I Like,” as well as “Finesse” with rapper Cardi B, and “Versace on the Floor,” which was also released as a remix by David Guetta. The album took home the Grammy Award for Best Engineered Album, Non-Classical. In February 2019, Mars again collaborated with Cardi B on the track “Please Me,” which landed at number three on the Billboard Hot 100. That July, he paired with Ed Sheeran and Chris Stapleton on the song “Blow.” In early 2021, Mars debuted a new collaborative project with Anderson .Paak called Silk Sonic. After releasing their first single, “Leave the Door Open,” in March, the duo made their television debut with a performance at the Grammy Awards.
Media Personality and human rights activist, Ahmed Isah, also known as Ordinary President, has been seen in another video assaulting a man whom he accused of writing down some names without his permission.
In the video clip which dates back to October 19, 2020, the Brekete Family Host who was visibly angry, was seen interrogating a young man who claimed he was collating the names of people for the Corporate Affairs Commission’s registration.
Isah, in the midst of the interrogation, paused and hit the young man in the face with his right palm.
But as Isah slapped the man, the camera’s focus was immediately shifted elsewhere and did not capture Isah’s facial expression properly or that of the assaulted young man.
At the end of the two-hour-long video, he said, “My apologies to all of you; to everyone watching all over the world, I am but a human being, I got provoked, I got angry because of what happened. I lost control because it had not been long I made an announcement and someone under my nose is doing what I warned against…”
Only weeks ago, there was outrage when Isah was caught on video slapping a woman he was interviewing. The woman, named Susan John, had poured kerosene on her niece’s head and set it on fire over allegations the child is a witch.
While interviewing her on his show, the Ordinary President had asked the woman to explain why the reason for her action but she wasn’t forthcoming with an answer so Isah slapped her twice across the face.
A video which has stirred mixed reactions on social media involves fire fighters that were called to rescue a man and woman from a burning hotel room.
Unknown to one of the firemen, his wife was the one in the room with another man.
Two fire fighters could be seen in the video trying to break down a room door as the occupants cried out for help.
After they had successfully broken down the door, the man and woman were helped out of the room but one of the firemen was stunned when he saw that it was his wife he had saved.
He then asked what she was doing there but she started apologising.
The plot twist has caused social media users to wonder whether it was a real incident or a just another skit.
We reported yesterday that a lady identified as Queen Elias, claimed that her uncle was falsely accused and paraded as one of the attackers of Orji Police Station in Imo state.
Another lady who claims to be an ex-course mate to Casmir has come out to reiterate that he is not a gunman, rather he works for an oil company.
The ex-course mate identified as Vivian Ijeoma Edenta, took to her Facebook page to give her own account and appeal for his release.
She shared a photo of him in his graduation gown and wrote;
”Ibe Casmir (the guy putting on white)..he was my course mate in FUTO, he works with an oil firm in PH. He entered Owerri with his family for his father in-law’s burial only to get arrested and paraded as an unknown gunman
Pls help me share, he’s Innocent!! I’ve known him over the years…. PLEASE LET’S NOT ALLOW NIGERIAN POLICE KILL INNOCENT MAN. HELP HE HAS A YOUNG FAMILY…. Please keep sharing this post if you see it”
Veteran Nollywood actress, Ify Onwuemene has died after a long-standing battle with cancer.
The news of her death was announced by actress, Gloria Anozie-Young on her Facebook page.
Recall that Ify, who was popular for her role in the popular sitcom ‘Everyday People’, first spoke up in 2019 after a silent struggle with the illness, and got support from fans and well-wishers.

Gloria’s post reads; “With a deep sense of loss but total submission to God Almighty, we regret to announce that IFEY ONWUEMENE has gone to be with the Lord.
“IFEY ONWUEMENE was diagnosed with endometrial cancer. Her womb was removed, but she has been battling the ailment for many years now.
“In 2019, even after eight sessions of chemotherapy, the doctors told her she had reached stage 4. However, we are not sure if she was given the wrong diagnosis or being treated with the wrong chemo, because she still felt pains on her upper abdomen and her tummy was bloated.
Ify spent more than N10m, being helped with donations by her fellow actors and other Nigerians. A GoFundMe account was opened for her, but it did not yield much. She had to go for draining every two weeks at a cost of N280,000, but only 3 litres of liquid can be removed at a time so that her heart is not affected.
IFEY has finally gone to rest, today 25th May 2021. May her soul rest in perfect peace. Amen.”
