  Mallorca fan sentenced to prison after racist abuse of Vinicius, Chukwueze A Mallorca fan who racially abused Real Madrid star Vinicius Junior and former Villarreal player Samuel Chukwueze was sentenced to a year in prison and issued a three-year stadium ban on Thursday. The supporter was “found guilty of two crimes against moral integrity, aggravated by the fact that he acted with racist motives”, Real Madrid said in a statement. The abuse of Vinicius occurred during Madrid’s 1-0 La Liga defeat to Mallorca at their Son Moix stadium in February 2023, before the fan insulted Chukwueze, now at AC Milan, a fortnight later. Madrid said the fan’s prison sentence was suspended “after the defendant apologised and showed his remorse, with a letter addressed to Vinicius, having completed an equality and anti-discrimination program.”

The Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice and Public Order, Fidelis Mnyim, stated this in a telephone chat with journalists on Monday.

He said a court sitting in Abuja, on Monday, unfreezed N1.9bn from garnished orders two weeks ago. He lamented that some of the consent judgments were entered into in the twilight of Ortom’s government, lamenting that the administration agreed it would pay a certain amount of money to the claimants monthly and defaulted all before Governor Hyacinth Alia took over. “I just finished with one of the inherited garnishee cas

 ‘Parents Are In A Hurry’: FG Defends Restriction Of U-18 Students For SSCE The Federal Government has defended its ban on students less than 18 years old sitting for the Senior School Certificate Examination (SSCE), accusing parents of hurrying their children/wards. In July, the Minister of Education Tahir Mamman said that starting from 2025, candidates below 18 will not be allowed to sit for the SSCE. Although the minister said the development was in line with the country’s laws, the move created ripples across the country, prompting a backlash from several quarters. But at the Inter-Ministerial Press Briefing in Abuja, Mamman has defended the policy which he said will pay the country in the long run. “Our laws, the Universal Basic Education Act and the Minimum Standards Policy Act established in 1993 prescribed specific age limits and provisions for every level of education: six years in primary school, three years in junior secondary school, three years in senior secondary school,

 An Ohio nursing home is the subject of a homicide investigation after a 72-year-old woman passes away due to bed sores. Lucy Garcia passed away on July 2nd. After a months-long investigation the coroner has deemed her death as a "homicide due to months of medical neglect". Lucy was a resident at Arbors at Oregon nursing home in Toledo, Ohio. Now investigators are alleging traumatic and lethal neglect on the part of the facility.  According to the family's attorney, Matt Mooney, the bedsore had progressed to the point of being all the way to the bone. He states there needs to be accountability for what happened and Lucy deserved to be treated with dignity and respect. Officials in Lucas County are investigating the nursing home after receiving the coroner report and criminal charges may be coming in the future.  This is truly a sad and disturbing story.  Our thoughts are with the family of Lucy Garcia and we hope they get the justice they deserve.  We will update.

YAHAYA BELLO MUST HAVE HIS DAY IN COURT.(PHOTO).#PRESS RELEASE

 Yahaya Bello Must Have his Day in Court   It is public knowledge that a former governor of Kogi State, Mr. Yahaya Bello had made several unsuccessful attempts to throw spanners in his ongoing trial through some irresponsible and utterly rascally efforts. The appropriate place of surrender would be before Justice Emeka Nwite of the Federal High Court, Abuja, before whom his legal team had undertaken to produce him to answer to the 18-count charges of money laundering preferred against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.     Yahaya Bello should be more interested in clearing his name than playing the victim and crying persecution, where none exists. To even insinuate that he was the target of a phantom assassination attempt because the EFCC made efforts to effect his arrest at the Kogi State Governor’s Lodge where he had been hiding, is preposterous. It is the first time in the Commission’s more than two decades existence that such a jejune claim would be mad

The alleged gunman is still currently being interviewed by homicide detectives, the source said. The incident comes as transportation officials in the city use emergency funds to enhance safety on metro buses, where they say a troubling pattern of violence is plaguing bus operators.

On Instagram, Mary expressed nostalgia for the days when people addressed issues in person. She criticised the current trend of seeking sympathy and fleeting fame online rather than tackling problems in the real world. “I miss the days when if someone messed up, you’d confront them in person and have a team conversation. Now, we’ve become keyboard warriors, seeking public sympathy and temporary fame on SM instead of facing issues head-on. “That’s why nothing changes! That ‘Lecturer’ might still not be fired! Real life is REAL and no one truly cares about your struggles. While on SM, start solving your problems in the real world. “Wake up. Wake up! Social media isn’t REAL. Stop living in it.
