 The Math Is Not Mathing: Portable Sparks Reactions After Questioning Baba Ijesha's Newborn Baby Timeline Controversial Nigerian street-pop sensation Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, has once again set social media abuzz. This time, the Zazuu crooner has set his sights on veteran actor Baba Ijesha, who recently welcomed a newborn baby boy with his partner, celebrity fashion designer CEO Luminee. In a candid video shared with his followers, Portable openly questioned the timeline of the pregnancy, pointing out the gap between Baba Ijesha's release from correctional custody and the arrival of the infant. Portable Raises Paternity Questions on Social Media According to reports, Baba Ijesha regained his freedom months ago. Doing some quick math, Portable raised eyebrows over how the pregnancy reached full term so quickly after the actor's release from prison, which he notes was approximately seven months ago.

PROTESTS: TWO MEN HANGED IN IRAN INCLUDING A KARATE CHAMPION. (PHOTO).



Iran on Saturday, January 7, hanged two young men, one a karate champion, the other a volunteer children’s coach bringing the total number of people known to have been executed in connection with the protests that have swept the country since September, to four.

Mohammad Mehdi Karami and Seyed Mohammad Hosseini were hanged early Saturday morning, Iranian state-affiliated Fars News reported.

The pair allegedly took part in anti-regime protests last year, and were convicted of killing Seyed Ruhollah Ajamian, a member of the country’s Basij paramilitary force, in Karaj on November 3, according to the Iran’s judiciary news agency Mizan.

Mohammad Hossein Aghasi, a lawyer advocating for Karami, posted to Twitter Saturday, that Karami was not given final rights to speak to his family before his execution. 

The lawyer added that Karami had begun a dry food hunger strike Wednesday as a form of protest against officials for not allowing Aghasi to represent him.

As many as 41 more protesters have received death sentences in recent months, according to statements from  Iranian officials.

Karami, 21, was an Iranian-Kurdish karate champion who sported a tattoo of the Olympic rings on the inside of his arm. His cousin said that Karami was a brave, intelligent boy and got into karate at age 11. He went on to join the Iranian youth national team and later won at the national championships.

Last month Karami’s parents posted a video to social media begging the Iranian state to spare his life. His father said, “My son is among the karate champions of Iran and has several national titles and was the fourth ranked member on Iran’s national team … I beg of you to please lift the execution order.”

Karami was convicted on December 5, less than a week after his trial began in Tehran over the alleged killing of the paramilitary.

Amnesty described the trial as bearing “no resemblance to a meaningful judicial proceeding.” 

His family allege he was tortured in prison and refused access to a lawyer.
