Alia’s car gift to Benue judiciary in order – Attorney General The Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice and Public Order of Benue State, Hon. Barr. Fidelis Mnyim has said the car gift to the judiciary by Governor Hyacinth Alia is a symbol of support and commitment as promised when he assumed office. Barr Mnyim was reacting to a query posed by Prof. Ernest Ojukwu, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria, in a tweet on Monday, 7th May 2024, challenging the viability of the autonomy granted to Benue State Judiciary if the State governor was still buying cars for them. MAGIC FM recalls that Governor Alia donated six (SUV) vehicles recently to the judiciary. The Professor had wondered why Governor Alia of Benue State should procure vehicles for the state’s judiciary when the funds allocated to the judiciary could be utilized for that purpose. The Attorney General of the State said that the procurement of vehicles for the judiciary constituted an additional benevolent gesture by the Governor.

ANNE HATHAWAY COVERS THE SEPTEMBER ISSUE OF ALLURE MAGAZINE.{PHOTOS}.
After we finished learning to make sushi with rice outside, sushi with rice inside, and hand-rolled sushi, we moved toward a table set for two beside a massive window overlooking a sparkling East River. Hathaway was very pleased with her handmade sushi, and I admitted I was also pleased with mine. She said we should take pictures, and I agreed, but I was using my phone to record our conversation. “But we need proof!” She leaned over the bench at our side and rifled through her bag to find her camera. Once she had it in her hand, she lifted it above her head triumphantly and said, “I’m going to prove this!”.Hathaway quickly takes photographic evidence of our shared superior sushi-making skills, and I move on to the film that brought us here together. If costarring with Rebel Wilson in The Hustle was an opportunity to show her comedy chops, Dee Rees’s The Last Thing He Wanted was an opportunity to do something similar in the way of political thriller and suspense. Elena McMahon, the character Hathaway plays, is an investigative journalist with that signature tenacity, though the drive had become warped over time. In some ways, she is exactly what Hathaway wants to avoid becoming. “I feel like something about working on The Last Thing He Wanted made my character so angry and so righteous. She’s not wrong for the reason she’s angry, but [it’s] taken over her life. Now she’s more angry than alive.”
Elena McMahon is a woman both obviously in pain and increasingly numb. How did playing her affect Hathaway in her real, everyday life? “It had a big impact on me because anger is something that’s been a big part of my journey. Not necessarily neutralizing it, because anger is useful, but learning the whys of it. Learning how to ask, How does this serve me?”.As we finished the meal and were treated to a gorgeous dessert of sweet berries and creamy mochi, Hathaway and I continued to chat about life on the set of The Last Thing He Wanted. One of the ways Rees requested she prepare to play Elena was by gaining 20 pounds. Though Hathaway happily agreed, her early experiences with conversations around roles and weight lingered. “At 16 years old, it was ‘Congratulations, you have the part. I’m not saying you need to lose weight. I’m just saying don’t gain weight.’ Which of course means you need to lose weight.” She continued, “So I had that, then 20 years later I have Ane Crabtree [costume designer for The Last Thing He Wanted] asking me what my body does on my moon — which I realized meant my period — so she can make adjustments for me. It was just this beautiful thing. I am cautious in my praise of how Hollywood is shifting. There is so much more body inclusivity — which is great! — but the thin thing is definitely still the centralized ‘normal’ expectation.”.Hathaway told me that at no point had she really considered giving up on performance. In fact, she sees brighter days ahead for women in the industry. “It’s more nuanced, and it’s more interesting. It’s allowed for more interesting characters and stories. Now the big question is are audiences appreciating it? If it’s not supported, it won’t continue. It will go back to the way it was, and people will say, ‘Okay, that didn’t work.’ ”
While we all wait to see what happens in the long run, Hathaway is preparing for a role in the new Sesame Streetmovie and working on producing projects she can’t share just yet. She’ll also give birth to a baby in the fall, something I suspected from the first hug but wanted her to confirm. It’s an announcement meant for her to control. And of course, that’s the only way she would have it.
