Migrant Caravan Arrives At U.S. Border, Despite Trump’s Threats

SAN DIEGO ― The caravan of Central American asylum-seekers that sent the Trump administration into a frenzy of anger began crossing into the United States on Sunday. The caravan’s organizers, immigrant rights activists and legal observers marched toward International Friendship Park, which straddles the U.S.-Mexico border, as the caravan’s participants marched from Tijuana to San Diego on Sunday morning. On the U.S. side of the border, a group of about 100 people chanted “No borders! No wall! Sanctuary for all!” as they marched along the beach toward the port of entry. Roughly 200 of their counterparts in Mexico gathered in front of the metal fencing that divides the two countries, with more than a dozen people hoisting themselves atop the barrier. “We have to push back against this administration,” demonstrator Laiken Jordahl, a borderlands campaigner for the nonprofit Center for Biological Diversity, told HuffPost. “Its culture of hate, bigotry and fear cannot be accepted

President Muhammadu Buhari has written to the National Assembly informing it of his  desire to extend his vacation. President Buhari who left Nigeria on 19 January was scheduled to return today and resume work tomorrow. But in a statement by Femi Adesina, the special adviser on the media, the president said he would be prolonging the leave  to complete and receive the results of a series of tests recommended by his doctors. Adesina did not indicate when the vacation will now end. According to Adesina, the President had planned to return to Abuja Sunday evening, but was advised to complete the test cycle before returning. “The notice has since been dispatched to the Senate President, and Speaker, House of Representatives”, Adesina said. “Mr. President expresses his sincere gratitude to Nigerians for their concern, prayers and kind wishes”, he added.

The Consumer Protection Council has commended prompt actions by the management of Obafemi Awolowo University in the alleged sexual harassment of one of its female students. The Director-General of CPC, Mr. Babatunde Irukera, gave the commendation on Monday in a statement signed by Mr. Abiodun Obimuyiwa, CPC Head of Media. Irukera said the council had keenly followed the raging controversy regarding the sexually and emotionally abusive conduct of demanding, and or providing sexual gratification in exchange for favourable grades in school. He noted that the widely discussed controversy underscored an allegedly pervasive practice. Recently, there had been a leaked and widely circulated audio clip that appeared to have captured a telephonic conversation or ‘negotiation’ between a female student and a member of the faculty at OAU, Ile Ife. The audio clip had been authenticated and both the member of the faculty and student/victim had been identified. According to Irukera, “CP

The Federal High Court in Abuja on Monday ordered an interim forfeiture of two properties linked to the wife of former President Goodluck Jonathan, Mrs. Patience Jonathan. The properties are at Plot No. 1960, Cadastral Zone A05, Maitama District; and Plot No. 1350, Cadastral Zone A00, both in Abuja. The properties were said to be held in the name of Ariwabai Aruera Reachout Foundation, which Mrs. Jonathan was said to be one of its “trustees.” The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission had, in an ex parte application filed in September last year, asked for an interim forfeiture of the properties, which it claimed were subjects of an ongoing criminal investigation. Ruling on the commission’s ex parte application on Monday, Justice Nnamdi Dimgba dismissed Mrs. Jonathan’s objection to the application for lacking in merit. The court then ordered the interim forfeiture, which he, however, ruled must only last for 45 days. He ruled that within the 45 days, EFCC must conclude

According to the story shared on Facebook, a man who refused to do court and white wedding with his baby mama is now begging to wed her in court after she got an opportunity to relocate abroad with her family. The story is quite interesting. Read below and tell us what you will do “I got pregnant nine years ago while dating my current husband and then the issue of marriage came up. I wasn’t working then. He told my family and I that he doesn’t want a court marriage for no reason. My parents tried talking to him, I cried and begged him severally to legalize his marriage with me but he stood his grounds not to wed me in a court. I involved his family members to help me beg him but they said, he’s old enough to make his decisions. He even refused to do a white wedding either because my church requested for a court certificate, so we ended up doing only traditional marriage. I later got tired and gave up on the matter. I was hurt and broken but I resolved to marry him like that just

Image
A gospel singer, Sharone, took to her IG page to celebrate living acne free for one year after Dunamis pastor, Paul Eneche commanded the acne to dry up. She shared her before and after photos and wrote; Who says miracles aren't real? who says they are temporal? April is about to end and I haven't forgotten that it was April 13th last year that my father Dr Paul Enenche cursed the terrible acne on my face, that defied all medical and natural remedies. He said "I command you to dry up!" and he told me sometime later after it had dried up (it dried up the next morning after that decree) "it will never come back" Its a year now and I am still free. I had to compile a lot of photos to shame the devil that wanted to make me ugly. It wasn't coincidental that we sang today in the choir a song titled "thank you Lord" a song by Dr Paul Enenche. I sang that song from every fibre of my being because a lot crossed my mind while we sang. A lot happ

The law, which came into effect in April prescribes up to 6 years jail term and a hefty fine for anyone found guilty of deliberately sharing false information. The convict  Salah Salem Saleh Sulaiman , 46 admitted he posted a video on YouTube accusing emergency services of responding slowly after a Palestinian Hamas member  Fadi al-Batsh was shot dead by gunmen on a motorbike in Kwala Lumpur. Sulaiman, who was on a 10-day visit to Malaysia when al-Batsh was killed, did not have any lawyer in court and claimed he didn’t know of the law. He had recorded a video which showed him speaking in Arabic, complaining that the ambulance service was slow in response to the shooting. “I agree I did a mistake, because I didn’t ask what is the law of this country,” he was quoted as saying.
