 So Linus Williams (Blord) has been released from Kuje prison after fulfilling his bail conditions, finally, freedom after a few weeks in custody. However, here’s the current position of his case:  He is still expected to show up and stand his trial.  If he fails to appear in court even for one day, his bail can be revoked and a bench warrant may be issued against him, meaning a return to Kuje. If the prosecution cannot prove the charges against him, he will be discharged and acquitted. If the prosecution proves the charges, he may be sentenced and sent back to Kuje. I think he should seek a peaceful resolution to the case. Congrats to him on his freedom for now.

 Benue PWDs Express Concerns Over Inaccessibility of Public Buildings


Persons with disabilities (PWDs) in Benue State have raised concerns about their inability to access public buildings, citing that these structures are not built in compliance with laws designed to accommodate their needs.


Jacinta Ighoito, Chairperson of the Albinism Association of Nigeria (ASN), made the disclosure in Makurdi over the weekend. She explained that during advocacy visits to public buildings such as the state secretariat and the House of Assembly, PWDs often struggle to gain access due to the lack of disability-friendly infrastructure.


Ighoito also highlighted the absence of a five percent employment quota for PWDs in the state, noting that these challenges persist because there are no state laws criminalizing such neglect.


In response, the Speaker of the Benue State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Aondona Dajoh, assured that the assembly would prioritize the passage of the Disability Bill once the revised draft is submitted for consideration. Represented by Deputy Clerk Mr. David Ochapa, Dajoh expressed hope that the executive's commitment to the bill would bring significant improvements for PWDs in the state. This statement was made during a roundtable discussion on the legislative process for the Disability Bill, organized by the Inclusive Friends Association (IFA) in Makurdi.
