 M23 says hundreds of Burundi soldiers captured in latest Congo offensive The Rwanda-backed M23 group has captured hundreds of Burundian soldiers during its latest offensive in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, a rebel official said, as clashes continued despite a warning from the Trump administration. Last week M23 entered the strategic town of Uvira near the border with Burundi, less than a week after the presidents of Congo and Rwanda met in Washington with U.S. President Donald Trump and affirmed their commitment to a peace deal known as the Washington Accords. U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said on Saturday that Rwanda's actions in eastern Congo violated the Washington Accords and vowed to "take action to ensure promises made to the President are kept". Rwanda denies supporting M23 and has blamed Congolese and Burundian forces for the renewed fighting.

 You can’t get 50% of husband’s properties after divorce under Nigerian laws – Lawyer tells women


Activist lawyer, Madubuachi Idam, on Thursday said Nigerian laws frown at a woman getting 50 percent of her husband’s properties during divorce.


Idam warned that women who push their husbands into court marriage with the intent of sharing his properties during divorce should know that such is alien to the Nigerian law.


In a chat with newsmen, the lawyer noted that the spouse would be made to provide evidence of contributing towards the acquisition of such a property.


According to Idam: “The law that awards 50% or any percentage of a man’s property to his wife during divorce is strange to the Nigerian soil.


“Women who push their man to have them married statutorily (court marriage) with an intention to share in their property during divorce should be informed that such law is alien to Nigeria.


“Statutory marriage (court marriage), does not aid a Nigerian woman to reap where she did not or has not sown, if it were so, divorce would have been the most lucrative thing after oil business for some GenZ’s who are not willing to be married but desperate to escape poverty.”


He, however, noted that in the event of death, the spouse is entitled to properties the deceased.


Idam added: “Except in the event of death where a surviving spouse is entitled to the properties of his or her deceased spouse acquired during the pendency of their ‘Statutory or Court Marriage’. Similar right is not available to the spouse during divorce.


“To be entitled to any portion of your spouse’s property during divorce, you must prove your contribution to the acquisition of such property in a concrete and substantial manner.


“Laws are territorial, what is obtainable in the UK is not automatically applicable in Nigeria except its legislated as a law in Nigeria.


“If one of your reasons for pushing your spouse to have you married statutorily is to enable you enjoy a certain percent of his wealth when you or he seeks divorce, you may need to rethink.”
