Jubril A. Gawat @Mr_JAGs

FLASH: In preparation for the launch of Precast Beams for the Phase 1 of the Lagos Rail Mass Transit project, the Lagos State Government will divert traffic on Muritala Mohammed Way between Saturday 12th February and Sunday 13th February, 2022.

In a statement released by the Ministry of Transportation, the Commissioner, Dr. Frederic Oladeinde explained that a lane will be barred from vehicular movement as part of the safety precaution to protect Road Users during the installation of the Precast Beams.

Oladeinde revealed that traffic on Muritala Mohammed way will be diverted to Abeokuta Street to access Borno Way through Coates Street to further link Muritala Mohammed Way. He added that motorists can alternately access their destinations from Cemetery Street.

In the same vein, according to the transport Commissioner, traffic on Apapa Road will be accommodated with the temporary lanes constructed before the overpass and will be channelized to two lanes on Muritala Mohammed Way.

The Commissioner assured that the construction site will be cordon off for the safety of the citizenry, adding that emergency vehicles will be on ground to tow faulty vehicles along the axis.

He also stated that signage’s will be placed on the access roads with the presence of the State’s Traffic Management Authority to manage traffic flow and minimize inconveniences.

The State Government while commending motorists for their patience reiterated its continuous commitment towards the development of transport infrastructure within the metropolis, maintaining that it is vital for the Multi-Modal Transportation System of the State Government which will in turn boost the economic prowess of the citizenry.

Honourable Commissioner for Transportation,

Priest Angrily Bans Igbo Songs In Church.

The Parish Priest of Holy Trinity Catholic Church, Ewu-Owa Gberigbe in Ikorodu, Rev. Fr James Anelu has banned Igbo songs and choruses in his church. He said the Igbos cannot keep dominating other people even in his church.

He cited the case of his Benin Diocese where Igbos dominate to the point of becoming the Bishop in person of Akubueze. He said that the spirit of God in any place recognises only languages indigenous to that geographical area. It brought about the abrupt dismissal of the congregation.

DISCLAIMER

It has been brought to our notice that Reverend Father James Anelu, the Priest-in-Charge of Holy Trinity Catholic Church, Enu-Owa, Ikorodu, made some completely unacceptable comments about Igbo songs being sung in the church and unsavoury remarks that do not represent the Catholic Church's position on common brotherhood of people of all tribes and religions.

For this reason, he has been asked to proceed on an indefinite leave of absence to give an opportunity for a thorough investigation of all the matters relating to his ministry in the parish. The leave of absence takes effect from Tuesday, 8th February, 2022 till further notice.

We therefore urge all Catholic faithful to hold on to the faith and continue in our worship of God as one big family united in love and not separated by language, culture or race.

Archbishop of Lagos

That was exactly what was on my mind when I saw the Nairaland thread. That Niyi Tabiti Blog copies all its posts from Nairaland and I'm sure that it copied that one from Nairaland as well.
