 AAC SEEK FURTHER INVESTIGATION INTO ON SOWORE IN EKITI The African Action Congress, AAC, has called for further investigation into the reported attack on Omoyele Sowore and other party members in Ekiti State, despite the arrest of eleven suspects. In a statement by its national publicity secretary, Rex Elanu, the AAC says new video footage has emerged which it believes could help identify more persons involved in the incident. The party has expressed concern over the handling of CCTV recordings from the restaurant where the incident occurred, and alleges that some stolen phones were traced to the governor's lodge in Ekiti State. It is seeking an independent investigation into these claims, the handling of recovered items and the circumstances surrounding the incident. The AAC has also called for the arrest and prosecution of any other persons found to have been involved, and demanded an investigation into the conduct of any security officers who may have acted unprofessionally.

 Jane Fonda calls out Paramount merger while making quip about ex-husband Ted Turner


Jane Fonda used her appearance at the Vanity Fair Oscars party on March 15 to speak out against the reported merger between Paramount Global and Warner Bros. Discovery. 


The 88‑year‑old actress warned that large corporate deals like this often result in widespread job losses and higher costs for consumers. 


Wearing a “Block the Merger” pin, she emphasized that workers could suffer and audiences might pay more as companies consolidate power.


Fonda also raised concerns about political influence over media, suggesting that mergers could give powerful figures greater control over news coverage. 


She referenced remarks about CNN’s future and tied them to her own history, joking that she “slept with the guy who created CNN,” a nod to her marriage to Ted Turner from 1991 to 2001. 


Despite their divorce, she praised CNN’s early mission of reporting facts without taking sides, expressing worry that ownership changes could undermine that tradition.


While her focus was on the Paramount deal, Fonda made clear that her opposition extends to most large media mergers, which she believes create systemic problems in the industry. 


Reports indicate the agreement could reshape the entertainment landscape if approved later this year. 


Still, Fonda ended on a hopeful note, insisting that resistance is possible and declaring, “We’re gonna win,” as she urged continued action against corporate consolidation.
