A councillor, Hon. Onem Tyna Miracle, has reportedly used monies for her official car to build this bridge to link two communities in Ogbia LGA of Bayelsa.
When some people drag Desmond Elliot for wooden "bridges" and toilets, examples such as this is the reason.
RETIRED GENERAL DIES IN CAPTIVITY AS KIDNAPPERS DEMAND RELEASE OF GANG MEMBERS
The Katsina State Ministry of Internal Security has announced the death of retired Major General Rabe Abubakar, who reportedly passed away from complications arising from diabetes and hypertension while in captivity alongside his wife.
Retired Major General Rabe Abubakar and his wife, Amina Abubakar, were abducted within Matazu Local Government Area while travelling to Katsina.
A recently circulated video showed the retired army officer nursing a wound on his left foot while in captivity.
Reports indicate that the mastermind of the abduction had demanded the release of three members of his gang, as well as some cattle, as conditions for the couple's freedom.
If I say 1+1=2. Should the word used for someone's attempt to tell me I'm wrong be "correct" or shouldn't it be "wrong"?
Ie. "Let me CORRECT that for you..." but the person is actually wrong. Maybe the follow should say "Let me WRONG that fur you". English is confusing π
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH: READING THE RIOT ACT ON AVIATION SAFETY AND SECURITY IN REFERENCE TO THE CASE OF UNRULY MS. COMFORT BOB ON IBOM AIRLINE AND RELATED INCIDENTS
Earlier today, we again woke up to viral videos of a female passenger on Ibom Airline (now identified as Ms. Comfort Emmanson or Comfort Bob) who went berserk and physically assaulted both the flight crew and the ground staff. The incident took place yesterday, August 10, 2025 on Ibom Airline Flight No. Q153 from Uyo to Lagos at about 14:54 hours. Ibom Airline has since issued a statement to provide some context to the effect that the whole unfortunate incident arose because of the refusal of the passenger to switch off her phone during take off as required by extant International Civil Aviation Regulations.
Consequently, in the last few hours, I have been speaking with the Commissioner of Police of the Airport Police Command, the DG of the NCAA and his team, the MD of FAAN and her team, the COO of Ibom Air and his team about the incident.
Apart from the indefinite flight ban imposed on the said unruly passenger (both local and international)
by the Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) the Police has promptly arraigned her this morning at the Ikeja Magistrates Court for criminal offences and remanded her at Kirikiri Prisons as she could not provide adequate sureties in court. I have attached the Charge Sheet and Remand Order for clarity.
We also note the scuffle that took place between the unruly passenger and ground personnel before she was eventually subdued. This was because of her uncooperative attitude. Whilst we support the filming of her recalcitrant behaviour as evidence to prosecute her, what is DEPLORABLE is to release such evidence containing indecent exposure to the public to ridicule her. That is TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE to us. We will not fold our arms and tolerate the debasing of womanhood. I have therefore directed that whoever RELEASED that part of the video containing the indecent exposure amongst the staff should be singled out and adequately sanctioned.
I have also directed that the airlines must continue to train and retrain their staff in public relations and how to deal with potentially explosive situations in order to diffuse them promptly or nip them in the bud, except when it becomes inevitable. I have also directed a joint security meeting between relevant agencies next week for better coordination of security measures in situations like this or similar ones we witnessed recently.
For genuinely aggrieved passengers, there are clearly laid-down remedies to address grievances. The Consumer Protection Directorate of the NCAA has consistently advertised these remedies and there is no point trying to take the laws into oneβs hands that may lead to dire consequences.
We will continue to apply equal sanctions available to us in Aviation on any such erring passengers, that is lengthy flight bans and report the matters to other law-enforcement agencies to do their bit within their powers.
Dear Nollywood, it is time to move out of photo studios and on to the red carpet to have your pictures taken.
Be confident in and with the outfit you paid so much money for.
The over edited pictures are getting out of hand. That's not what the Hollywood stars do.

Dear @RemitaNET I tried to buy power on your platform last night and I'm yet to get what I paid for. What's the way forward please?
I received a confirmation mail and it said I'd get the token within minutes. It's been over 15 hours now.
Dear @NgComCommission an increase in subscription of up to 59% is above what has been discussed isn't it?
What happens in the case of a 200% increase?
Where's the protection for consumers?
Many Nollywood movies on YouTube are good but most people don't get to watch because there's no publicity whatsoever.
What's so difficult in getting a less than 3 minutes trailer to advertise?
Some cinema movies share a snippet and call it a trailer. SMH
Hope it changes soon
Two factor authentication and yet I need the old device to be able to get into the new device. If I still had the old device, would I be trying to get into the new one? Isn't this why I have a backup phone/email?
