The Traditional Ruler of Azumini Ndoki Ancient Kingdom in Ukwa East LGA, Abia State, HRM Eze Edward Eule (Onyenweali X), has dismissed claims by some of his subjects that he abandoned his throne following his temporary absence from the community. This is as six suspects have been arrested by the police in connection with the stealing of the community’s electricity transformer, thus plunging the community into darkness. The monarch, who is currently in the U.S, explained that his trip was to attend to personal and professional matters, adding that he will soon return to Nigeria. "I travelled to the United States of America in May 2025 to attend to some professional and personal matters.

The Ulthukela District Municipality in Kwazulu Natal province,has come under fire for offering scholarships to a handful of college age girls,only if they can prove they are virgins.Many critics have branded the bursary as misogynistic and unconstitutional,with Dudu Mazibuko,the district's mayor,being the main target of criticism.Mazibuko however insists the programme sterms from prevalent health issues:in which half the district's young women are either teen mums or infected with HIV.He said ''Two,three our even four children at the age of 25,So we need to do something as a country,as a society.So as a leader in this community,it's my responsibility that we do something for the these young girls''.Despite the backlash,the mayor is fast gaining supporters in other provinces.In Tembisa township in Johannesburg for instance,a virgin group,the Amatshitshi Empela group,fully supports the scheme and hopes to soon be giving out bursaries.For the young women beneficiaries,abstinence has become the only way to win the battle against South Africa's huge teen pregnancy and HIV problem,and despite controversy it's the way they've found to embrace their culture and focus on education.One more photo below.
