If there is crisis in Nigeria, I will be the last to leave – Bishop Oyedepo

Founder of Living Faith Church, Bishop David Oyedepo, has said that leaving Nigeria even when the nation is engulfed in crisis is not a first action he would take.

According to the revered cleric, he would be the last to leave the country in case the situation becomes irreversibly terrible.

He said this during Sunday service, while admitting that things are indeed going wrong in the country.

In his words, “If there is crisis in this Nation, I will be the last to leave here.”

Speaking further, Oyedepo noted that nobody can enjoy and sustain the flow of favour without the fear of God as a lifestyle.

“Don’t rob nobody, don’t cheat on anyone. Don’t outsmart your business partners. Don’t swear falsely. Don’t take bribes. Favour is the companion of all that fear God and favour shall be your companion from now.

“Flowing in favour demands the doing of righteousness. You know there is the appropriation of righteousness that people emphasize today, but don’t be deceived, he that doeth righteousness is righteous. The doing righteousness: favour!

“There was an explosion of favour, until the time that his Word came. The Word of the Lord tried him,” he said.

This comes a week after popular televangelist, Paul Adefarasin subtly advised his Church member to start getting a plan B to exit Nigeria.

Actor Denola Grey narrates his battle with depression, anxiety disorder

Nollywood actor and celebrity stylist, Denola Grey opened up about how he battles depression and suffered anxiety disorder.

In a recent interview session with media personality, Chude Jideonwo, the Nollywood actor revealed that it was tedious for him to fit into the Nigerian system when he returned to the country in 2018.

I never wanted anyone to pity me.

As a matter of fact, I am a ‘solve your problem’ kind of man.

If anything goes wrong in my life, I believe it’s up to me to fix it.

Would I ask for emotional support from my family and friends? Yes.”

Fake EFCC operatives apprehended during ”operation” in Lagos

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has arrested two suspects and a Mobile Police inspector for impersonating officials of the commission and extorting members of the public in Lagos State.

The agency has asked Nigerians to be vigilant and demand proper identification from officers when confronted with the possibility of arrest.

A Lagos-based businessman, Samuel Otigba first announced on May 12, that the fake EFCC operatives were nabbed during an illegal operation at New Horizon Estate in the Lekki area of the state, to serve a purported court order on an unsuspecting victim.

He said they were eventually handed over to the EFCC.

Omoooo today is wild. We caught 2 men that came into our estate claiming to be EFCC officials, with fake EFCC ids & accompanied with Mopol, trying to extort money from a resident. One of the fake officers tried escaping by jumping from a 4 storey but fell into the electric fence.

The mobile police officer with a rifle escaped.

They have been handed over to the real @officialEFCC operatives for proper investigation,” Samuel wrote on Twitter.

Speaking on their arrest, the Zonal Head of the Lagos EFCC Office, Ghali Ahmed, advised Nigerians to always report any suspicious operation to the nearest office of the anti-graft agency.

We need to be wary of the antics of this gang of impostors and to report any suspicious “operations” to the nearest EFCC office,” he said.

The suspects are Pascal Chijioke and Sodiq Adekunle, and the mobile policeman is Edwin Bassey.

Items recovered from them include the fake EFCC ID cards, the jackets, the purported court order touted to have emanated from Mushin Magistrate Court, a truckload of household properties belonging to the unsuspecting victim.

Baba Ijesha told me he didn’t rape the seven year old girl -Yomi Fabiyi.

Nollywood actor, Yomi Fabiyi, has narrated his encounter with his colleague, Olanrewaju James also known as Baba Ijesha, after he was alleged of sexually abusing a minor.
In a video, Fabiyi said he met Baba Ijesha in the Lagos police custody to hear his own narrative.
According to him, Baba Ijesha denied raping any seven-year-old girl.
He said, “When I heard about the situation, I was unhappy. It was controversial. When I asked him what happened, did you rape the minor, he (Baba Ijesha) said ‘Yomi, I never did. Princess brought a general to harass me. I didn’t sleep with this girl seven years ago.’ At that time, Princess was also in marriage.”
Narrating the first time he met the girl in question, Fabiyi said Baba Ijesha told him that “The first time I met this girl was at a garage and touts were harassing me for money. How could I have slept with her?”
Fabiyi clarified that Baba Ijesha is not a paedophile, adding that he never had canal knowledge of the teenager.
He said, “The girl never at any time said Baba Ijesha raped her. The girl said she was not raped. What happened is sexual assault.
“Pedophiles don’t go for adult teenagers, the majority don’t know what it (Pedophile) is. Not to talk of somebody who is an adult.
“You watched a child being molested for 30 minutes, somebody must pay for that. He (Baba Ijesha) said four men beat him to a stupor when they rushed in (in the leaked video). He said he could barely hear anything when they were asking him questions; that all he could hear was ‘molest’, ‘molest’.
“He didn’t conceptualise the ‘molest’ in the face of the law. He thought it was the normal way that we play with it. He needed to save his life. Then, he was scared that they could kill him. What if the man died in that process?
“A child cannot understand why you will ask her to submit her body and play along with somebody she does not know. I don’t want lies. I want a genuine case to be established.”
The police had announced that Baba Ijesha was in their custody for allegedly sexually abusing a minor, adding that there was CCTV footage of the allegation.
Fabiyi had staged a protest demanding the bail and release of Baba Ijesha, claiming that his offence is bailable.

Cameroon jails transgender women for ‘attempted homosexuality’

Two transgender women in Cameroon have been sentenced to five years in jail for contravening homosexuality laws.

Shakiro
image captionShakiro has thousands of followers on Facebook and YouTube where she is open about her sexuality

Their lawyers say they were found guilty of “attempting homosexuality” as well as outraging public decency and problems with their ID cards.

One of them is trans celebrity Shakiro, a YouTuber who highlights the problems Cameroon’s banned LGBT community faces.

She and her friend Patricia have been in detention since February after their arrest at a restaurant.

Cameroon is among 31 African countries that criminalises gay sex.

“It’s a hammer blow. It’s the maximum term outlined in the law. The message is clear: homosexuals don’t have a place in Cameroon,” one of their lawyers, Alice Nkom, who heads the Association for the Defence of Rights of Homosexuals, told the AFP news agency.

Their other lawyer, Richard Tamfu, says the pair will appeal against the verdict as there is no proof that homosexual acts were committed, just suspicion.

The court in the city of Douala also fined Shakira and Patricia 200,000 CFA francs ($370; £260) each.

If the two are unable to raise the money to pay the penalties, they will face another 12 months in prison on top of their five-year sentence, the BBC’s Killian Ngala reports from the capital, Yaoundé.

Shakiro
image captionSome feel that Shakiro has been deliberately targeted because of her celebrity

In 2016 Cameroon strengthened its anti-homosexuality laws, changing the penal code to explicitly outlaw same-sex sexual relations, our reporter says.

There is animosity towards gay and transgender people in Cameroon and they can often be beaten up in public, he says.

Shakiro, who has also been identified as Loïc Njeukam, is unusual for being vocal about such persecution.

She has thousands of followers on Facebook and YouTube where she promotes cosmetics and talks openly about her sexuality.

The trial of Shakiro and Patricia, who has also been identified as Roland Mouthe, has been high-profile, with critics saying it is a political decision to prosecute them.

More details continue to come in surrounding the February 2020 killing of Brooklyn, N.Y. rapper Pop Smoke.

According to new testimony from a detective involved in the case, Pop, born Bashar Jackson, was fatally shot by a 15-year-old who was one of the five people arrested in connection with the rapper’s slaying, which occurred following a home invasion, reports New York Daily News.

On Friday (May 7), LAPD Det. Carlos Camacho testified during a preliminary hearing for suspect, Corey Walker, 20, that the unnamed 15-year-old male defendant admitted to pulling the trigger during a recorded interview with a cellmate last May at a juvenile detention center. “[The teen] admitted that he shot the victim three times with a Baretta 9 [mm.],” Camacho told the court.

“They got into a fight, and he shot him three times,” Camacho said of the conversation that the 15-year-old boy had. “He said he shot him on the back. He said that when the individuals got inside, the suspects confronted [Pop Smoke], who was in the shower naked.”

Camacho also testified that Walker admitted his role in the slaying to an informant who was placed in his cell following his July 2020 arrest as well. “He said that when the individuals got inside, the suspects confronted [Pop Smoke], who was in the shower naked,” Camacho testified.

Walker was recorded telling the informant they wore ski masks and commanded the rapper to take off his jewelry. Pop reportedly initially started to comply, to which the intruders told him “Thank you.” However, according to Walker, the rapper then fought back. He rushed robbers but was pistol whipped before being shot by the 15-year-old male. The robbers and suspected killer were only able to make off with one of Pop’s expensive watches, which they later sold for $2,000, investigators said.

During the hearing, Walker’s defense attorney, Christopher Darden, argued for murder charges against his client to be dropped, saying Walker only drove the car to the home that Pop was killed in and was not directly involved with the robbery or killing. Judge H. Clay Jacke II denied Darden’s request and Walker pleaded not guilty. Walker is due back in court for rearrangement on June 3.

The new testimony from Det. Camacho aligns with new details revealed during testimony on Thursday (May 6), from LAPD detective Christian Carrasco. He relayed statements from a woman who was in an adjacent room at the home at the time of the shooting. The woman claims the intruders breached the home through a second-floor balcony, put a gun to her head and told her “Shut the fuck up. Do you want to die?”

“She heard a struggle coming from the shower area and heard Mr. Jackson screaming,” Det. Carrasco said. “Mr. Jackson ran out of the bathroom and then she heard a loud pop and [heard] Mr. Jackson fall to the ground.” Carrasco also testified the woman said two of the intruders kicked Pop after he was shot.

COVID-19: FG imposes midnight curfew, reintroduces restriction on mass gathering

The federal government had earlier announced that foreigners who recently visited the three countries will no longer be allowed to enter Nigeria.

It also reduced the validity period of the pre-boarding COVID-19 PCR test for all Nigeria-bound passengers from 96 to 72 hours.

Efforts are also being made to vaccinate as many Nigerians as possible although at a snail’s pace: 1.7 million shots administered as of Monday, mostly to health workers and other priority groups.

South Africa considers new law that will allow women marry more than one husband

South Africa is considering a new law that will allow women marry more than one husband, in the same way that polygamous men are allowed to marry more than one wife.

The Department of Home Affairs which proposed the law in a 67-page policy document also called Green Paper on Marriages, stated that the current marriage act does not promote equality.

The policy document highlighted that the current marriage legislation is discriminatory as it does not recognise Hindu, Jewish, Muslim and Rastafarian marriages. The policy document also called for polyandry to be legally recognised as a form of marriage.

The Green Paper proposed three new marriage regimes to bring equality in marriage laws. One of these options is a gender-neutral marriage regime.

It read; “This would accommodate both polygyny and polyandry

“…Therefore all marriages, whether monogamous or polygamous, could be concluded regardless of the sex or sexual orientation of the person.”

South Africa’s Ministry of Home Affairs appears to favour the option for a gender-neutral marriage regime that allows both polyandry and polygyny.

The Ministry wrote; “The political appetite of the country to confront the challenges of the current marriage statute will be tested through these options. However, if Section 9 of the Constitution was to be implemented in its entirety, option 3 will tick all the boxes.”

The Ministry however noted that the option for polyandry has ruffled feathers and South Africa’s traditional leaders have vociferously opposed the proposal, claiming that a woman being married to more than one husband is an “unacceptable practise because it is not of African origin.”

It added; “Ironically, stakeholders who believed in the practice of polygamy … were opposed to the practice of polyandry.

“This is the beginning of a crucial public discourse that will re-define the concept of marriage in South Africa.

“The process will unearth issues that may make some of us uncomfortable, but will encourage dialogue within the South African and international communities.”

South Africans have until the end of June to comment on the department’s proposals.
