Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen step out in coordinated black looks for New York stroll Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen made a rare joint appearance in New York City, stepping out together for a relaxed afternoon in matching, understated fashion. The 39-year-old twins were seen walking through Midtown Manhattan on April 30, dressed in coordinated black trench coats paired with wide-leg denim. They completed the look with sunglasses, scarves, and structured alligator handbags from their luxury label, The Row, before stopping for lunch during their outing. Long before becoming fashion insiders, the sisters built global recognition as child actors through projects like Full House, It Takes Two, and New York Minute. Over time, they stepped away from Hollywood and fully transitioned into fashion, officially launching The Row in 2005. Mary-Kate now serves as creative director of the brand, while Ashley oversees it as CEO. In earlier interviews, Ashley has described the label’s beginnings as a small ex...

BENUE GOVT DEMOLISHES ALLEGED KIDNAPPERS BUILDING LINKED TO EX-CHIEF JUDGE



Benue State Government has demolished a property allegedly belonging to a former Chief Judge of the state for being used by kidnappers.

The demolition followed the arrest of two out of the four suspects in the failed kidnap attempt that was busted by the Benue State Police Squad in Makurdi, the state capital.

Channels Television observed that the affected property is not a structurally defective building but a residential apartment along the Makurdi-Gboko Road

It is being pulled down under the supervision of security officials after investigations revealed that it has become a hideout where kidnappers hold their victims hostage.

The property is purportedly owned by a former CJ of the state but occupied by four tenants who allegedly turned out to be members of a kidnap syndicate.

Addressing journalists in Makurdi, Special Adviser on Security Matters, Colonel Paul Hembe, said the demolition was in line with the Benue State laws that forbid buildings to be used as kidnapping sites.

“The state has zero tolerance for kidnapping activities and we have a law in place which provides that whoever provides his or her property to be used by kidnappers as a den, we will have that building demolished,” he said.

“Our special crime unit busted their activities. Two of them were arrested and two others including the kingpin are on the run but hopefully, we will get them very soon.”

In his remark, the Commissioner of Police in the state, Wale Abass, said the suspects who have carried out three successful kidnapping operations in the past have been giving Benue State problems.

Noting that the suspected kidnappers have collected ransom, the police commissioner said they were nabbed by special operatives.

One of the suspects, Iorver Solomon, confessed to the crime and said they collected N500,000 as ransom from the first victim. He stated that they realised N1 million from the second kidnap victim.

But the husband of a kidnap victim, Ibrahim Anum, contested the amount demanded by the suspect, saying his family coughed out nothing less than N3 million as ransom.

Anum explained that the suspects initially demanded N25 million, saying they know how successful he has been as a businessman, but after due negotiations and pleadings, eventually collected N3 million.
