 LAWMA URGES DILIGENCE IN MEDIA REPORTING AS IT CLARIFIES OPERATIONAL REALITIES The Lagos Waste Management Authority (LAWMA) has urged media organisations to exercise diligence and contextual accuracy in reporting on waste management operations as it clarifies the operational framework guiding solid waste collection and disposal across Lagos State. The Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer of LAWMA, Dr. Muyiwa Gbadegesin stated this on Friday while responding to recent media reports on waste evacuation challenges in parts of the state. He explained that routine household waste collection was executed by licensed Private Sector Participant (PSP) operators under strict regulatory supervision and performance monitoring, contrary to assertions that LAWMA was directly responsible for carting away municipal solid waste from households. “LAWMA enforces defined service benchmarks and maintenance standards while activating targeted interventions wherever performance gaps are identified....

 Ben Stiller demands White House remove “Tropic Thunder” clip from White House video: 'War is not a movie'


Ben Stiller has publicly criticized the White House for using a clip from his 2009 comedy Tropic Thunder in a recent social media post. 


The video, shared Thursday on the official White House X account, featured scenes from various films and TV shows, including Top Gun, Braveheart, Iron Man, Breaking Bad, and Tropic Thunder, with the caption “JUSTICE THE AMERICAN WAY.” The clip in question showed Tom Cruise’s character Les Grossman dancing.


On Friday, Stiller reposted the video and demanded that the administration remove the footage, stressing that neither he nor the film’s team had given permission. 


“We never gave you permission and have no interest in being a part of your propaganda machine. War is not a movie,” he wrote. 


His comments came amid heightened tensions following U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran, with the White House’s video including imagery of warfare labeled “Unclassified.”


Stiller joins a growing list of artists objecting to the unauthorized use of their work by the administration. 


Sabrina Carpenter condemned the use of her song “Juno” in a montage of ICE raids, Kenny Loggins demanded the removal of “Danger Zone” from an AI-generated video, and Kesha denounced the use of her track “Blow” in a TikTok post she said promoted violence. 


Each artist has spoken out against what they see as inappropriate and misleading use of their creative content in political messaging.
