  BANDITS STRIKE CHURCH IN KWARA: WORSHIPPERS ABDUCTED IN SHOCKING ATTACK Chaos erupted in Omugo community, Ifelodun LGA, Kwara State, as armed bandits stormed an ECWA Church during Sunday morning service, abducting worshippers and sending the congregation fleeing in terror. Sources report that at least seven people were kidnapped before security forces could intervene. In a swift and coordinated response, joint security operatives, including forest guards and local vigilantes, rescued three victims, though several remain in captivity. Bolanle Olukoju, Kwara State Commissioner for Communications, condemned the brazen attack, describing it as “cowardly and unacceptable,” and praised the rapid action of security agencies. She confirmed that efforts are ongoing to free the remaining abductees and bring the perpetrators to justice.  The incident follows earlier intelligence warnings of potential coordinated attacks in Kwara South, prompting deployment of military, paramilitary, an...

RYAN GOSLING’S ‘PROJECT HAIL MARY’ PREMIERES IN NYC, DRAWS A-LISTERS TO LA PRESS SCREENING AMID BUZZ. (PHOTO).


 Ryan Gosling’s ‘Project Hail Mary’ premieres in NYC, draws A-listers to LA press screening amid buzz


The premiere of Project Hail Mary in New York was a spectacle in itself, though the logistics raised eyebrows. 


With temperatures hovering at a frigid 30 degrees, the red carpet was set up outside on Josie Robertson Plaza, far from the theater entrance at Lincoln Center. 


This arrangement forced stars to trek across the plaza, delaying the screening by nearly an hour. Despite the hiccups, the film running 156 minutes was well received by the audience, showing strong engagement throughout the night.


Meanwhile, Los Angeles hosted a quieter press screening at IMAX’s Playa Vista headquarters. 


Though less glamorous, it drew notable industry figures, including showrunner Bill Lawrence, who mingled with trade reporters and even offered directions to hidden snack spots in the office complex. 


Former SNL star Taran Killam and THR’s Scott Feinberg were also spotted, underscoring the film’s growing buzz. 


Based on Andy Weir’s best-selling novel and directed by Phil Lord and Chris Miller, the sci-fi epic stars Ryan Gosling as a lone scientist tasked with saving humanity.


Commercially, Project Hail Mary is tracking impressively, with projections of a $70–$78 million opening weekend and a 95% Rotten Tomatoes score. 


While its release timing may not scream “Oscar season,” Gosling’s performance and the film’s technical achievements could position it as a contender. Amazon/MGM Studios, still recovering from the underwhelming Crime 101, is banking on this project to deliver a win. 


Insiders suggest they may look to the success of Sinners which opened earlier in the year and went on to win four Oscars as a model for how Project Hail Mary might navigate awards season momentum.
