Gov Bassey Otu Sacks Task Force and Orders Compensation After Demolition of Businessman’s Nearly Finished Building

Cross River State Governor Bassey Otu has dissolved the state’s Planning and Development Control Task Force. He also ordered compensation for the owner of a nearly completed private property that the task force demolished in Calabar.

The move followed public complaints from Calabar-based businessman Olajide Jemil. In videos that spread online, Jemil said the demolition of his apartment project left him feeling threatened. He claimed his life was at risk, that he was being intimidated, and that his livelihood was under pressure. He said he had already promised US investors the project would be ready soon and called on the state government to step in. The property was at an advanced stage of construction. Jemil had described himself as someone who brought investment into Cross River and lived in the state for years.

Governor Bassey Otu has now criticized the demolition. He said it was an abuse of power and a clear violation of a citizen’s rights. The governor stressed that claims of planning violations do not give any agency the right to ignore the law or trample on people’s dignity. He ordered the full dissolution of the task force, saying the team had failed. He also directed that no further demolition take place on the affected property and that the owner receive proper compensation for the damage already done. Otu made clear that public officials must act within the law and that no one is above accountability.

Actress Eniola Badmus has expressed disappointment over people who fail to support others during difficult times but expect the same support when they need it.
She shared her thoughts in an Instagram post, lamenting the lack of mutual support among people.

HMMM! EKWEREMADU EPISODE 2? THIS TIME, IN LONDON!

Omo! Who would have thought that the INEC Chairman, Professor Joash Amupitan, would get this kind of reception outside Chatham House in London? 😂

Nigerians in the diaspora reportedly confronted him, surrounded his vehicle and demanded his resignation. The chants were certainly not diplomatic!

But beyond the drama, there is a bigger issue here.

The 2027 elections are approaching, and Nigerians are already questioning the referee before the match begins!

From alleged irregularities in the voters' register and AI-generated entries to INEC's handling of political party disputes, including the ADC controversy, public confidence is becoming a serious concern.

And here is what makes this episode particularly interesting:

Nigerians may have relocated abroad, but apparently, they haven't relocated their political frustrations! Distance has not silenced their voices.

However, the real issue isn't whether the INEC Chairman was embarrassed in London. It is whether INEC can convince Nigerians that it is impartial, transparent and capable of conducting credible elections.

Because an electoral umpire whose integrity is constantly questioned has a much bigger problem than an angry crowd outside his vehicle.

NYSC Deployment Surge Caused Sagamu Camp Overcrowding — Ogun Govt

The Ogun State Government has attributed the overcrowding at the state's NYSC orientation camp in Sagamu to a significant increase in the number of prospective corps members posted to the state. The clarification came after a viral video showed prospective corps members sleeping in a crowded multipurpose hall at the orientation camp, popularly known as the Five-Star Camp. Reacting on Monday, the Special Adviser on Media and Strategy to Governor Dapo Abiodun, Kayode Akinmade, said the scene in the video was a temporary arrangement during the registration exercise. According to him, the camp typically accommodates slightly over 2,000 corps members per batch, but the current batch received more than 4,300 prospective corps members, placing considerable pressure on available facilities. Akinmade explained that registration, screening, credential verification, and hostel allocation are handled exclusively by NYSC officials and do not fall under the direct responsibility of the state government. He added that despite not being in charge, the state government has continued to support the camp. The state provided 500 mattresses during the current exercise, while the Akarigbo of Remo donated 100 mattresses, followed by an additional 200. He also recalled that Governor Abiodun recently approved N50,000 each for the 3,050 corps members in the previous 2026 Batch C Stream I to assist with transportation.

DJ Cuppy Explain Why She Ditches Her Signature Pink Look After 17 Years

The billionaire heiress and DJ, whose name is Florence Otedola, popularly known as DJ Cuppy has finally explained why she moved away from the pink hair, pink outfits, pink cars and pink everything that made her one of the most recognisable faces in Nigerian entertainment. Speaking in a new interview with GQ Poland, which she shared online, Cuppy said fans keep asking her one question: What happened to the pink?

And she finally answered; "I was known for the colour pink, and it was my identity for so many years, and a lot of people are asking what happened to the pink. I want people to understand that actually growth is something that will always come, and I don't think I should be boxed into a colour. When I think about my style, I think about a woman in a male-dominated industry. Maybe also when I first started 17 years ago, a young girl who was using pink to represent her femininity and stay in the room. Now that I've been through a lot of doors and kicked down some windows, I feel like I can represent my femininity through any colour. So my style, I would say, is vibrant, grounded, and ethnical."

Cuppy made it clear she hasn't completely abandoned pink. She just doesn't want it to define her anymore.
