 North Korea fired several ballistic missiles into the sea Monday, South Korea’s military said, hours after South Korean and U.S. troops kicked off their large annual combined drills, which the North views as an invasion rehearsal.  South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff said the missile firings, North Korea’s fifth missile launch event this year, were detected from the North’s Hwanghae province but gave no further details such as how far they flew.  Earlier Monday, the South Korean and U.S. militaries began their annual joint military exercises, which are scheduled to last 11 days. The Freedom Shield command post exercise began after the South Korean and U.S. militaries paused live-fire training while Seoul investigates how two of its fighter jets mistakenly bombed a civilian area during a warm-up drill last week.  The drills' start drew the condemnation of nuclear-armed North Korea, which issued a government statement calling the exercises a “dangerous provocative act...

2021 LAFENWA INFERNO: OGUN COMPENSATES VICTIMS

Ogun State Government has compensated victims of Lafenwa market affected by the petrol tanker inferno which occurred on Tuesday, November 28, 2021, just as it warned that it would no longer tolerate any form of attack on its public officers.

The State Commissioner for Special Duties and Inter-governmental Affairs, Barr. Femi Ogunbanwo, while performing the official payment of the compensation in Abeokuta to representatives of the affected traders and fire officers, said the development was in fulfillment of the government’s promise to the victims.

Ogunbanwo who was the Chairman of the State Government Special Committee on Lafenwa Market Fire, read a riot-act to miscreants that attacked fire-fighters and their equipment during the incident, saying anyone caught in such act would be arrested and handed over to the Police for prosecution.

He stated that the Prince Dapo Abiodun led administration had repositioned relevant government agencies managing fire disasters, approved construction of new ultra-modern fire service stations, purchase of new fire-fighting vehicles, and modern equipment across the State to prevent losses in the event of fire outbreak.

"We have also embarked on training of our fire officials in line with global best practices and technology. We are confident that the ongoing massive infrastructural developments, across our State were carefully designed and built to avert the effect of fire incident", Ogunbanwo stated.

 He expressed appreciation to Governor Dapo Abiodun for the quick release of funds to cushion the effect of the disaster on the victims, urging the affected traders to see the compensation as a demonstration of the present administration's commitment to their welfare.

Also speaking, his counterpart in Women Affairs and Social Development, Mrs. Funmi Efuwape, who is also a member of the Committee eulogised the Governor for his prompt response to the recommendations of the Committee, saying the gesture would uplift business activities of the traders.

In her remarks, the President-General of the Ogun Markets Women, Alhaja Oluwayemisi Abass showered encomium on the government for the compensation, stating that it would assist victims to get back to business, while a beneficiary, David Okafor also appreciated the financial support on behalf of others.
