 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. I am robustly healthy and fine, and I may soon conclude the task of my sojourn here", he said. Prof. Eule accused individuals he described as "mischief-makers operating under the guise of an Interim Ruling Council" of peddling falsehoods and propaganda about his alleged abdication. ...

Lagos Assembly summons commissioner, VC, others over certificate racketeering

The Lagos State House of Assembly, yesterday, resolved to invite Commissioner for Tertiary Education, Tolani Akibu, Vice Chancellor of Lagos State University (LASU), Prof. Ibiyemi Olatunji-Bello, Senate of the institution and other top staff over allegations of extortion and certificate racketeering levelled against the school.

Speaker, Mudashiru Obasa, while noting that the source of the story could be suspicious, resolved that the concerned officials should be summoned to brief the chamber to save reputation of the tertiary institution.

“I agree that the committee should invite those to be invited to establish facts about the allegation, but we must not because of that destroy our institution’s reputation,” Obasa, an alumnus, adding that anyone found wanting would be sanctioned.

Moving the motion under ‘Matter of Urgent Public Importance’, a lawmaker, Owolabi Ajani, told his colleagues that there was need to invite the commissioner, VC and others to get first-hand information.

He submitted that LASU has maintained a high level of integrity over the years, which must be sustained.

While Sa’ad Olumoh urged that the investigation should involve people in the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) unit of the institution, Desmond Elliot and his colleague, Ladi Ajomale, who said they attended the school also, supported that the allegation be investigated.

Meanwhile, the House has moved to criminalise street begging.

The Speaker, while reacting to the motion, harped on legislating to end the menace in the state.

According to him, street begging has become a serious problem in Lagos that must be tackled head-on.

He emphasised the need for a law that would criminalise the act and also penalise individuals who give alms openly.
