 Mark Consuelos details 'brutal five-month saga' before his father's death: 'I miss my dad' Mark Consuelos has spoken candidly about the loss of his father, Saul Consuelos, who passed away on March 23 after a long illness.  Appearing on the I’ve Never Said This Before with Tommy DiDario podcast, the Live with Kelly and Mark co-host reflected on the painful five-month period leading up to his father’s death.  He recalled knowing the end was near but admitted that the reality of the loss still hit him hard.  Consuelos shared that he was able to say goodbye while working on the Broadway play Fallen Angels, and though he later learned of his father’s passing during rehearsals, the production served as a welcome distraction. The actor explained that he had hoped for a merciful and peaceful passing for his father, which he was grateful ultimately happened quickly and without pain.  While the family has not disclosed details about the illness, Consuelos described his f...

 Peter Obi Condemns Arrest of VeryDarkMan, Warns of Abduction-Like Tactics Eroding National Security


Peter Obi, the 2023 Labour Party presidential candidate, on Sunday strongly condemned the arrest of social media influencer Martin Vincent Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), describing the manner of the arrest as resembling an abduction. In a statement, Obi expressed alarm over the unsettling method, which he warned could be mimicked by criminal elements and risks blurring the line between legitimate arrests and unlawful abductions.


“This disturbing method not only creates fear but also risks undermining national security and accountability,” Obi said, noting that such tactics could erode public trust in legal processes. He referenced past incidents, including similar indignities faced by judges, stating, “When those who interpret the law are treated with such disregard, it is difficult to expect that ordinary citizens will feel protected.”


Obi highlighted the economic repercussions, pointing to backlash against GTBank, allegedly linked to VDM’s arrest, which has damaged the institution’s reputation. “At a time when investor confidence is fragile, we must avoid actions that tarnish institutions or undermine trust,” he said, questioning why authorities could not have invited Otse in a civil and transparent manner to avoid reputational harm to Nigeria and its institutions.


The former Anambra governor also raised concerns about the alleged abduction of a National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) president, warning that such actions threaten the independence of student leadership and silence young voices in democracy. “The oppression of young voices through force, patronage, or intimidation is a dangerous path we must not normalize,” he cautioned.


Obi called for a return to a Nigeria where justice is administered transparently, youth can speak freely, judges serve with dignity, and institutions act responsibly. “That is the Nigeria we must rebuild,” he concluded.
