No Comments

Nigerian rapper and activist, Folarin Falana professionally known as Falz has reacted to the Lagos State Judicial Panel of Inquiry reports on the Lekki massacre which indicted the Nigerian Army and police.

The panel reported the Lekki Toll gate shooting of October 20, 2020 as a massacre indicting soldiers and implicated Nigeria’s security agents in the killing and forced disappearances of harmless and unarmed youths protesting at Lekki Tollgate on October 20, 2020.

The Justice Doris Okuwobi-led panel made the revelation in a 309-page report submitted to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State on Monday.

Page 294 of the report read: “The atrocious maiming and killing of unarmed, helpless and unresisting protesters, while sitting on the floor and waving their Nigerian flags, while singing the National Anthem can be equated to a ‘massacre’ in context.”

Reacting to the development, Falz, took to his Instagram story and called out government, describing those who claimed the incident never occurred as animals who made the youth doubt their sanity about the Lekki Massacre.

Falz added that the Lagos #EndSars had compiled their report, and everything is now more transparent.

He wrote: ”These animals legit made us doubt our sanity about the Lekki Massacre you know. Panel don compile their report an. We gather dey!”

No Comments

Nigerian rapper and human rights activist, Folarin Falana also known as Falz, and some of his colleagues have called for the next line of action following the report of the Lagos Judicial Panel of Inquiry into the incidents of October 20, 2020 at the Lekki Toll Gate.

The recent report submitted to Governor Babajide Sanwo-olu of Lagos state on Monday, had indicted the police and soldiers of the Nigerian Army of having killed and maimed unarmed youths protesting police brutality and bad governance in Nigeria.

But Minister of Information, Lai Mohammed, had in a series of press conferences denied the massacre, insisting that no one was killed during the invasion of Lekki toll gate.

Falz, in reaction on his Instagram page demanded justice for the lives lost during the incident.

He wrote: “I can’t believe these monsters made us think that we are mad sha. Something that we watched on Instagram live.

“Anyway the panel is out now and it is clear as day just in case you thought we would back down at some point. This has never been and will never be an option.

“All these recommendations must be implemented. the leader these innocent souls deserve is justice.”

Other celebrities like Mr Macaroni, Timi Dakolo and Toolz have taken to their social media pages expressing their opinions following the panel report.

@Mr Macaroni said; The same panel that the government set up has presented their findings. Except you people don’t have faith in your own Judicial system. Since last year, we have seen numerous gaslighting and lies! The truth always prevails and that truth is the #EndSARS Movement.

@Timi Dakolo; Now that the Panel is done with their findings and has declared it a massacre, what next? WHAT NEXT?!

@Toolz; I honestly was expecting a different outcome from the #LekkiMassacre judicial panel, but glad the truth prevailed.

@Kate Henshaw; There was a LIVE recording of the incident but they legit tried to make it seem like we were mad! Who dey mad now?

I married as a virgin at the age of 55 – Newly-wedded woman

No Comments

A 55-year-old woman, Esther Bamiloye, who recently got married to a 62-year-old bachelor, Isaac Bakare, in Osun State, has said she’s grateful God finally answered her prayer to get married.

In an interview with The Punch, Esther revealed that she got married with her chastity intact.

Read excerpts below..

I am Lady Evangelist Esther Bamiloye, now Mrs Bakare. I am the 55-year-old woman that got married recently for the first time in her life. My husband is Isaac Bakare, a 62-year-old artisan. Before we got married, he was never married too.

I have a Grade 2 certificate, but I am not into teaching. I am into garment production. I produce garment such as vests, sports wears, washable diapers and more.

Is there a story behind your long wait before getting married?

The devil had plans to stop me from getting married. When I felt I was ready, there was no man coming for me. I kept waiting on God for a miracle till I reached 55-years. I never dated anyone till I got married. Initially, I thought the problem was from my former church and I left, but I give glory to God. He did it for me in my new church and all the barriers were removed.

Did you at any point lose hope?

Not really. But I was overwhelmed at some point. It was simply God’s grace that kept me going. I did not know any man till I got married to my husband. I married as a virgin.

How did you meet your husband and what attracted you to him?

God had been revealing his picture and personality to me and speaking to me about him through some people for over three years. Exactly on the day it reached three years that I first got the revelation, God sent the message again through a prophet. The description of his looks, where he would come from and others matched perfectly when I set my eyes on him at Ilesa. My church is in Osogbo, but we had an event in Ilesa where I met the man destined for me.

God even revealed our wedding date, which was October 29, 2021. The period between our meeting and wedding was really short. I give God all the glory for remembering me after all these years.
