Yemen fighting pushes nearly 3,000 to Djibouti in less than a week: UN    Nearly 3,000 people have fled Yemen for Djibouti in less than a week as escalating violence drives growing displacement within the country and across its borders, the UN refugee agency said Friday. “Refugees continue to arrive by boat through Obock, Khor Angar, Moulhoule and Godoria after difficult journeys in small vessels,” UNHCR representative in Djibouti Sandrine Desamours told reporters in Geneva, Anadolu Agency reported. More than half of those crossing the Bab el-Mandeb Strait are women and children, while some families have been displaced for a second time after previously fleeing Yemen during the 2015 crisis and later returning.

 Court Hears Case of NYSC Member Allegedly Killed by Gospel Singer


A High Court in Lafia, presided over by Justice Simon Aboki, has begun hearing the murder trial of 32-year-old gospel singer, Oluwatimilehin Daniel Ajayi, who is accused of killing and dismembering National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) member, Salome Adaidu.


Ajayi, who was brought to court under tight security from the Nigerian Correctional Service, pleaded not guilty to the charges.


The Nasarawa State Government, represented by Attorney General Hauwa Samuel Jugbo, has officially taken over the prosecution from the police.


During the proceedings, prosecution counsel Raymond Umar requested an amendment to the defendant’s name, changing it from Timilehin Ajayi to his full legal name. Justice Aboki granted the request after verification.


Three witnesses, including the Divisional Police Officer of Karshi Police Station and the deceased’s uncle, Mr. Adaidu Samson, testified before the court.


During cross-examination, defense counsel Joseph Tuku Bisong questioned whether forensic investigations had confirmed the victim’s identity. In response, Mr. Samson stated that he immediately recognized his niece’s severed head when it was found inside a polythene bag.


Justice Aboki adjourned the case to Tuesday for further hearing.


Ajayi, also known as Timilehin Ajayi, was arrested on February 12 in connection with the brutal killing and dismemberment of the 24-year-old corps member.
