 LAWMA SCALES UP ENVIRONMENTAL ENFORCEMENT, SEALS DEFAULTING MARKETS, SHOPS IN IKOTUN-IGANDO … Issues Fresh Compliance Notices Along Ojuelegba-Lawanson-Itire Corridor The Lagos Waste Management Authority (LAWMA) has intensified its ongoing environmental compliance enforcement across Lagos, sealing markets, shopping complexes and commercial premises along the Ikotun-Igando axis, while issuing notices of intention to seal markets, shops and plazas along the Ojuelegba-Lawanson-Itire corridor. The enforcement exercise, carried out on Saturday by LAWMA's Project WISE West team, targeted commercial premises along the LASU-Igando Road corridor in Alimosho Local Government Area, following persistent indiscriminate dumping of refuse on the road median despite repeated default notices, sustained environmental advocacy and notices of intention to seal.

 My daughter wanted to name her brother Michael Jackson - Howie Mandel shares childhood story


A simple family memory turned into a funny story for Howie Mandel, and it all started with a name.


Speaking at the premiere of Michael in Hollywood, the comedian shared that his eldest daughter once had very strong opinions about what to call her baby brother. 


She was just four at the time, but completely taken in by Michael Jackson.


According to him, she genuinely wanted her unborn sibling to carry the full name of the pop legend. Not just “Michael,” but Michael Jackson. That was how deep the admiration ran in their home back then.


Howie laughed as he looked back on it, noting that both he and his daughter were huge fans. The idea sounded wild, but it made perfect sense to a little girl who saw her idol as larger than life.


At some point, he decided to make her dream feel real, at least for a moment. He took her to meet Michael Jackson in person. But when the time came, everything changed.


The same child who had confidently picked out a name suddenly went quiet. Completely quiet.


“She couldn’t talk,” Howie recalled. “She was just frozen.”


He described the late singer as warm and kind during the encounter, gently trying to make the young girl comfortable. Still, the moment was overwhelming for her.


Looking back, Howie joked that he just wanted her to understand one thing clearly, that the man she adored was Michael Jackson, not her future brother.


Over the years, that father and daughter bond has grown into something deeper. Today, they even share a creative space together through their podcast, a project that started during the pandemic as a way to stay connected.


Their relationship hasn’t always been smooth. Both have spoken openly about living with OCD, which at times created tension, especially when she was younger. There were moments of strictness, worry, and misunderstandings.


But time has softened those edges.


Now, they meet each other with more understanding, more laughter, and a shared history that includes everything from childhood obsessions to grown-up conversations.
