 Today, as I celebrate my 61st birthday, my heart is incredibly full. For eight of these celebrations, I have had the rare privilege of serving as your Governor. It has been one of the greatest honors of my life to serve this extraordinary state and its people. The journey has been demanding, humbling and deeply rewarding. Leading a state as dynamic and energetic as Lagos is no small task. It has taught me more about resilience and patience than any other chapter in my life. I am filled with gratitude today, gratitude for life, for family, for health and for the enduring trust of Lagosians. Public service has its challenging days but the privilege of building a greater Lagos makes every single moment worth it. We have come a long way together yet the work never stops. As I celebrate today, my commitment to you remains as strong as ever. There is still more to do, more to build and more progress to achieve for everyone who calls this great state home. Thank you, Lagosians, for walki...

SOUTH KOREA’S JAILED EX-LEADER YOON REFUSES QUESTIONING BY REMOVING HIS PRISON UNIFORM. (PHOTO).


 South Korea’s jailed ex-leader Yoon refuses questioning by removing his prison uniform


Former South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol again refused to cooperate with investigators on Friday, this time by removing his prison uniform and lying on the floor of his detention cell in protest.

Yoon, who was removed from office in April following his controversial declaration of martial law, was returned to prison last month as he faces a high-profile trial on charges including rebellion. In addition to the martial law-related case, he and his wife are under investigation for alleged misconduct linked to the 2022 ruling party’s candidate nomination process.

Investigators led by special counsel Min Joong-ki, appointed by Yoon’s political rival and current President Lee Jae Myung, arrived at Yoon’s detention center near Seoul to question him after he twice ignored summons. Min’s team held a court-approved warrant allowing them to forcibly remove Yoon if necessary, but sought his voluntary cooperation.

Assistant special counsel Oh Jeong-hee said that upon entering the cell, Yoon had removed his prison clothes and lay down, refusing to comply. After the officials left, Yoon reportedly put his uniform back on. Concerned for safety, investigators chose not to physically intervene but warned they would enforce the warrant at a later time.

Oh urged Yoon to cooperate, emphasizing the importance of equal law enforcement under public scrutiny. Yoon’s lawyer condemned the special counsel’s comments on his attire as an affront to his dignity.

Yoon’s defense team previously cited serious health issues—including cardiovascular problems and risks to his eyesight—as reasons he could not attend questioning or trial. They claimed he faced potential blindness due to untreated medical conditions over the past three months.

Yoon’s brief imposition of martial law, which deployed armed forces on Seoul’s streets, was quickly rejected by lawmakers in a unanimous vote. Yoon has defended the move as an urgent effort to rally public support against what he described as the “wickedness” of Lee’s Democratic Party, which had blocked his agenda and pursued impeachment against key officials.
