In what further punctured the lie by Nigeria’s Attorney-General and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami (SAN), that the wedding of his son, Abdulaziz, to Khadija Danbatta, in Kano on Saturday was done in compliance to the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control guidelines, SaharaReporters has confirmed that the lavish ceremony did not only breach the laid down protocols of the NCDC but also violated the stipulated number of persons approved to attend a social event at this time by the Nigerian Government.

The author, Remi Oyeyemi One has just finished reading the rejoinder to the article, "Bola Tinubu, Ibrahim Magu, The Cabal And 2023", written by Dr. Oladimeji Alo. This piece is a rejoinder to his rejoinder, and please, pardon the tautology. This headline was chosen to avoid boredom and disinterest, while essentially addressing the issues raised in the original piece and Dr. Alo's rejoinder, from whence this title was actually appropriated.  His rejoinder, without a doubt brought forth a different perspective to the issues in public discuss, but evidently, not on the matters raised by the original article.

Civil servants in Ondo State have threatened to embark on a strike action over the refusal of the state government to pay some of their emoluments. The government workers made the threat in a letter written to Governor Rotimi Akeredolu in Akure, the state capital. The letter was signed by the union's Chairman, Olubunmi Fabunmi, and Secretary, Olomiye Kehinde.  The workers under the Joint Public Service Negotiations Council are demanding that the state government pay their outstanding December 2016 and 2017 salary arrears. They are also asking the government to pay their 2018 and 2019 leave bonuses including their salary deductions from February to June 2020. In the letter obtained by SaharaReporters, the workers said they would abandon work starting from next week Wednesday if the state government failed to address their demands.

File Photo Two United Nations Organisations – the World Food Programme and United Nations High Commission for Refugees – in a joint statement said that many displaced persons across the continent were engaging in transactional sex to feed daily. The two agencies said this in a humanitarian appeal on Thursday. The WFP said it requires more than $600m to meet its commitment to refugee settlements in Congo DR, Ethiopia, Nigeria and other African countries for the next six months where food prices have jumped massively – 15 per cent in Congo DR for instance. The UNHCR on the other hand said it needs $227m to catch up with its own obligations in Africa.  File Photo REUTERS/Siphiwe Sibeko “In some cases, refugees are resorting to begging, transactional sex or early or forced marriages to be able to afford food,” the report said. “Globally, WFP needs more than $1.2bn to support refugees globally for the next six months, just over half is for operations in Africa. “As part of the
