It is Father Mbaka's job to speak about the welfare of his flock and the safety of his followers are his priority. It is a time honoured fact and tradition that Catholic priests are required to criticise government if they do not do their job, that is, address the welfare of citizens who are also the flock of the priests. The only time that you can say a priest has gone out of bounds is when he takes a partisan position and I didn't see Yekini Nabena criticising Father Mbaka when he actually held partisan views in support of the APC.

The reason I advised that you should contact these people is that they've got lawyers, psychological counsellors and other professionals that are needed to tackle this case. They are backed by the Lagos State Government and they know how to make the police do their work. They can also provide shelter for the woman and the child if the need arises. They are your best bet.
This is to inform members of the public that the Lagos State Domestic and Sexual Violence Team is actively following up on the Baba Ijesha’s case, we are also in direct contact with the complainant with a view to providing the necessary support.
We confirm that the duplicate case file has been forwarded to the Directorate of Public Prosecution (DPP) for legal advice. For avoidance of doubt, the following allegations are being considered:
(1)Sexual Assault by Penetration- S 261 of the Criminal law of Lagos State, 2015 punishable by Life imprisonment
(2) Attempted Sexual Assault by Penetration-S262 of the Criminal law , punishable by 14 years imprisonment
(3) Sexual Assault- S263 of the Criminal Law, punishable by 3 years imprisonment
(4) Indecent treatment of a child- S135 of the Criminal Law punishable by 7 years imprisonment
We have absolute confidence in the criminal justice system, as well as social support structures in Lagos State in ensuring justice is served in this matter and most importantly, the survivor receives the relevant support on her journey towards healing.
We therefore use this medium to reiterate Lagos State Government’s position of zero tolerance to all forms of Sexual and Gender-Based Violence and our firm commitment in ensuring justice for survivors.

Renowned military historian, Professor Mark Felton, produces another of his amazing videos. This one is about the re-emergence of Russian bombers near British airspace.
Other speakers at the event include Bishop Mathew Hassan Kukah of the Catholic Diocese of Sokoto, Governor Kayode Fayemi of Ekiti State, Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State, Mr Osita Chidoka, Mr Olisa Agbakogba, Mr Olusegun Adeniyi and Dr Charles Omole.
The Platform is a popular discussion series that is hosted by the Covenant Christian Center. It is usually held during public holidays such as Independence Day and May Day. The next event is scheduled to hold on May 1st, 2021, but it has been hit by protests online as some people object to the inclusion of the governor of Kaduna State, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai in a panel to discuss devolution of powers in Nigeria.
The protesters allege that Governor El-Rufai is a bigot and ethnic jingoist and they are calling on people to boycott the event.
In August 2020 the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) withdrew an invitation that it had extended to Governor El-Rufai to speak at it's annual conference after people called for a boycott of the conference.
ServanTheG: Congrats to Enyimba. For sure they're the most consistent clubside in this country. But if they are capable of hosting matches at night why don't they do so?
They have had night matches there in the past. However, there are a lot of things that go into hosting a match. Is it the best time for the fans? What about issues of security (of both fans and participants) and electricity? Besides, people had previously complained about the floodlights at the stadium and new floodlights were added when the stadium was renovated between 2017 and 2019.
The stadium was renovated between 2017 and 2019. The field was done by Monimichelle, probably the best company in Nigeria when it comes to laying turfs. It is a hybrid turf and I think they used Desso Grassmaster.
