Operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, have re-arrested Socialite, Idris Okuneye popularly known as ‘Bobrisky’. He was arrested on Thursday night at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport in Lagos.
He was picked up while attempting to board a flight to London barely a few days after being granted bail by the Nigerian Police.

The flight which he boarded was halted by Nigerian Authorities and he was swiftly escorted out of the flight.

Okuneye proceeded to raise alarm via his Instagram Page, calling for help. He wrote;
“Nigerians help me, EFCC just arrested me. I’m badly injured,”

The assertion that the English language has borrowed many words from the Igbo language is a topic of debate among linguists and language enthusiasts. The Igbo language, which is part of the Niger-Congo family, is spoken by approximately 45 million people primarily in Nigeria and has a rich history and cultural significance. To explore this claim, it is essential to analyze the nature of language borrowing, the historical context of both languages, and specific examples cited in discussions.

Language Borrowing

Language borrowing occurs when one language takes words or phrases from another language. This phenomenon can happen for various reasons, including trade, colonization, migration, and cultural exchange. In the case of English and Igbo, historical interactions between English speakers (particularly during colonial times) and the Igbo people may have facilitated some degree of lexical borrowing.

Historical Context

The English language has a complex history influenced by various languages due to invasions and colonization. Latin, French, Germanic languages, and others have all contributed to its vocabulary. The interaction between English speakers and African languages occurred significantly during the colonial period when British colonizers established control over parts of Africa, including Nigeria.

While there are claims that certain English words derive from Igbo roots, it is crucial to approach these assertions critically. Many words in English are derived from Latin or Greek origins rather than directly from African languages.

Examples of Claimed Borrowings

Some proponents argue that specific words in English sound similar to their Igbo counterparts. For instance:

Animal (English) - Anụmanụ (Igbo)
Water (English) - Mmiri (Igbo)
Say (English) - Si (Igbo)
However, while these similarities exist phonetically, they do not necessarily indicate direct borrowing but could be coincidental or result from shared linguistic ancestry.

Linguistic Analysis

Linguistically speaking, both languages belong to different families with distinct grammatical structures and phonetic systems. The tonal nature of Igbo adds complexity to its vocabulary that does not directly translate into English phonetics or semantics. Furthermore, many linguists argue that while there may be superficial similarities between some words in both languages, substantial evidence supporting direct borrowing remains limited.

Additionally, as noted in discussions surrounding this topic, many believe that most English vocabulary stems primarily from Latin and Greek rather than African sources. This perspective suggests that while there may be isolated instances of borrowing or influence due to cultural exchanges over time, they are not widespread enough to substantiate claims that “English borrowed many words from Igbo.”

The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control has alerted the public on the activities of Christ Mercy Land Delivery Ministries in Effurun, Delta State which, it said, uses its name to deceive the public.
The agency said the investigation followed petitions from concerned citizens about Senior Prophet Jeremiah Omoto of Christ Mercy Land Delivery Ministries with office in Km 5 Effurun, Sapele Road, Delta State on a miracle water and miracle soap being advertised with healing and miracle claims and sold to unsuspecting members of the public by the Spiritual Ministry.

A statement issued by the Director-General of NAFDAC, Prof Mojisola Christianah Adeyeye, said the cleric showcased the use of miracle water and miracle soap on social media to heal barrenness.

Apart from claiming that the women would carry twins if they used the soap, NAFDAC said, “he openly told his congregation that the soap is NAFDAC registered.” Adeyeye said, “Thus, the public began to visit the office to confirm the claims. The petitioners also submitted the following products from the Spiritual Ministry to NAFDAC to verify the bogus claims. The products are: Miracle & Healing Water, River Jordan Water, The Miracle Water from The Pool of Bethsaida, A new beginning Mount Camel Miracle Water, Water of life, Miracle Water from The Pool of Bethsaida (1L), a New Beginning Pool of Bethsaida Water, and Father Smelled Perfume.
“Upon receipt of the petitions, NAFDAC, through the Director Post Marketing Surveillance (PMS) NAFDAC, contacted the Delta State Coordinator to ascertain the existence or records of any transaction with the Christ Mercy Land Deliverance Ministries and the products in Delta State Office.

“Upon receipt of the petitions, NAFDAC, through the Director Post Marketing Surveillance (PMS) NAFDAC, contacted the Delta State Coordinator to ascertain the existence or records of any transaction with the Christ Mercy Land Deliverance Ministries and the products in Delta State Office.

“The Coordinator was also directed to visit the Ministry to establish the veracity of the claims in the petitions and take necessary regulatory action on the production facility in the Ministry where the Miracle water and other products are produced. The State Coordinator covertly bought the Miracle Water (25cl) for 3000 naira from the Ministries and took the pictures.

On Wednesday August 14 2024, the State Coordinator Delta State visited the Mercy Land Ministry and met the Head of Service (HOS) – Mr. Ogunleye Fufeyin and the Chief Security Officer (CSO). The officials denied producing Miracle and Healing Water or Soap even with the evidence of the receipt of purchase. He claimed that only the Logo and address on the label were theirs but not the product.
“The HOS added that they only have a pool of Bethsaida water which is spiritual and artificial. The HOS requested time to meet with other staff and returned. He returned after 30 minutes and refused to cooperate, asking them to see the CSO.

On August 27 2024, a team of Investigation and Enforcement NAFDAC and Federal Task Force on Counterfeit and Fake Drugs and Unwholesome Processed Foods visited the Ministry, to commence investigation on the place of purchase or the manufacturing site for possible sample collection, for laboratory analysis, but the officials did not cooperate with the team.
“Letters of invitation was issued to the officials to report on August 28 but it was not honoured. The company instead submitted a Legal document at NAFDAC Headquarters Abuja on August 28 2024 and asked to come back on September 3 2024 to organise their document before coming.

The agency then gave the Prophet till 29 to report at investigation and Enforcement NAFDAC Office Asaba for further necessary investigation. Investigation and Enforcement Asaba waited for the Christ Mercy Land Delivery Ministries officials based on their earlier request to report for commencement of investigation, but they still refused to show up.

On September 3 2024, they forwarded some documents instead asking for more time to report. In a document, made available to NAFDAC Office in the evening of September 3, the faith organization claimed to have entered into a production contract agreement with Globod Table Water Km 4, DSC Expressway, Otokutu, Delta State without the knowledge of NAFDAC State Office in Delta State.

This act is illegal according to the extant rules and regulations on commercial production. In continuation of our investigation, NAFDAC Investigation and Enforcement has sealed Globod Table Water factory for aiding and abetting the production, sale and advertisement of unregistered and unwholesome Miracle Water under the pretext of Fake NAFDAC Registration Number.
“At this point, it is very clear that Christ Mercy Land Delivery Ministries, KM 5, is not ready to present itself for investigation of production and advertisement of suspected falsified, unwholesome, and unregistered “Miracle” products.

NAFDAC wishes to inform the public that none of these products being advertised and sold are registered with NAFDAC. The public is also being advised to stop patronizing any of these Miracle products. NAFDAC is scientific organization that is guided by verifiable scientific facts before registering any product.

In the meantime, we will continue with our investigation into the activities of this faith organization with regards to products within our mandates that have been reported to be manufactured and sold by them. I want to use this opportunity to warn either faith organizations against illegal production of regulated product without requisite regulatory requirements.

I want to assure Nigerians of our resolve to continue safeguarding health of the citizens.

Good morning my Ogbonge people.
Today na another Sunday that present to us the opportunity to worship Chineke.
Tell us the name of your church and the topic your pastor/ rev father preached on today .

In a move that has captured the attention of international observers and economists, Burkina Faso’s President Ibrahim Traore has made the decision to decline financial assistance from the International Monetary Fund (IMF). This decision marks a significant moment for the West African nation as it navigates its economic and political landscape.
The IMF, known for providing financial support to countries in need, had approved a substantial arrangement under the Extended Credit Facility for Burkina Faso, aimed at addressing the country’s balance of payments problems and supporting economic resilience and poverty reduction efforts. However, President Traore’s administration has opted to turn down this offer.

This decision could be seen as a statement of economic independence and a desire to pursue a different path towards financial stability and development. It reflects a broader trend of African leaders evaluating the terms and long-term implications of international financial aid. President Traore’s stance may resonate with a growing sentiment for self-sufficiency and a cautious approach to foreign debt.

One of the key reasons cited for rejecting the IMF’s assistance is the belief that such aid could perpetuate economic dependency and limit the country’s control over its financial decisions. There is also a sentiment that accepting the aid could keep the country ensnared in a cycle of debt. This perspective aligns with a broader trend among some African leaders who are re-evaluating the long-term implications of international financial aid and expressing a preference for policies that promote autonomy and self-determination.
Additionally, the decision reflects concerns about the potential for international financial institutions to influence domestic policy and priorities. By turning down the IMF assistance, Burkina Faso is asserting its financial sovereignty and demonstrating a commitment to prioritizing the well-being of its citizens above external pressures.

It’s important to note that Burkina Faso faces numerous challenges, including security issues and the impact of external shocks such as the COVID-19 pandemic and adverse weather conditions. Despite these difficulties, the government’s decision suggests a willingness to address these challenges independently, possibly looking towards other forms of partnership and support that align more closely with the nation’s goals and values.
Burkina Faso has faced numerous challenges, including security concerns, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and adverse weather conditions, all of which have strained the nation’s economy. Despite these hurdles, the government seems committed to seeking alternative strategies for growth and development.

The move has sparked discussions on the sustainability of such a decision and its potential impact on Burkina Faso’s future. Some analysts argue that while this could foster a sense of national pride and control over the country’s resources, it also raises questions about the viability of self-funded development in the face of significant economic challenges.

As Burkina Faso charts its course, the international community will be watching closely to see how this decision unfolds and what it might mean for the future of financial assistance and economic sovereignty in Africa. The country’s leadership appears to be signaling a new era of autonomy and self-determination, setting a precedent that could influence the region’s economic policies for years to come.

Mark Zuckerberg is known for being one of the wealthiest CEOs in the world, but he doesn’t always flaunt his money. In many ways, the Meta founder chooses a lifestyle that is not too far off from the average person. He ditches the traditional decadence of the ultra-wealthy and opts for a more simple way of life.

Zuckerberg’s frugal habits, however, do not extend to his charitable giving. In December 2015, the social media chief executive pledged to give away 99% of the Facebook shares owned by him and his wife, Priscilla Chan. At the time, the holdings were worth over $45 billion.

While the philanthropist does spend jaw-dropping amounts of money on some items, he continues to make headlines for living a less-than-opulent lifestyle.

Here are five things he won’t waste money on.

1. Expensive Clothes
Instead of a carefully tailored Italian suit, Zuckerberg opts for a more casual look. He is frequently photographed wearing T-shirts and jeans. He was often criticized for his work attire, which some felt was not reflective of his status as a CEO. However, he remained steadfast for years, wearing the same gray T-shirt, hoodie and jeans to the Facebook offices each day.

Zuckerberg isn’t the only successful businessman to wear an outfit on repeat. As discussed in Smart Company, the co-founder’s low-key apparel was a choice to help him reduce the number of decisions he had to make each day. He is well-known for stating that he tries to eliminate the number of nonessential decisions he has to make each day, which apparently includes what to wear in the morning.

2. Pricey Cars
In addition to his non-flashy wardrobe, Zuckerberg is also known for driving less than luxurious vehicles. While he may own a fleet of them, many are affordable. According to some reports, including Way.com, he at one time owned a Honda Fit and a Volkswagen Golf MK6.

The Harvard dropout is not the only one of the world’s wealthiest to drive cars that can be owned by the middle class. As reported by CNBC, Michael Bloomberg drives a Chevrolet Suburban and Jeff Bezos has been seen in a Honda Accord. At GOBankingRates, we asked experts why the rich drive cheap cars and found that many of them value practicality and functionality over luxury.

3. An Over-the-Top Wedding
Mark Zuckerberg tied the knot with Priscilla Chan in 2012, nearly a decade after meeting her at a college party. The two have made headlines for their philanthropy and their not-so-decadent wedding. Just one day after Facebook went public, the two exchanged vows in their Palo Alto backyard. The wedding was hush-hush, with guests believing they were attending Chan’s medical school graduation party. The understated affair was catered by local restaurants and likely cost hundreds of thousands of dollars less than the typical billionaire’s wedding.

4. A Huge Salary
While the Meta founder is a billionaire, he doesn’t spend money on a salary for himself. In 2023, he made a salary of only $1, carrying on the tradition that he set a decade earlier. The self-made businessman, however, isn’t hurting for cash. Most of his earnings are classified as “other compensation.” The majority of the compensation is spent on security for Zuckerberg, according to the report.

5. Luxury Vacations
While the rich and famous are known for taking lavish vacations to otherworldly destinations, Zuckerberg and his family tend to fly under the radar. They don’t seem to feel the need to flaunt their wealth, choosing instead to keep their vacations more down to earth, like the one they took to Kauai, where they ate the island’s famed burgers and visited local shops.

While his trips may seem relaxed and cost-effective, Zuckerberg doesn’t always pinch pennies. He is said to own a multimillion-dollar compound on the island of Kauai. The property serves as a getaway for him and his family. It was allegedly under construction in December 2023 with plans for a “huge underground bunker.”

Leadership Newspaper has honoured Hyacinth Alia, governor of Benue, with the governor of the year award.

In a statement on Monday, Tersoo Kula, chief press secretary to the governor, said the award was in recognition of Alia’s “exceptional leadership” in Benue state.

Kula said the newspaper praised Alia for strengthening the state’s internally generated revenue (IGR) and giving hope of a better life to the people of Benue.

He said the media organisation highlighted the governor’s achievements since he assumed office six months ago, adding that Alia has prioritised the elimination of corruption, education, road projects and the transportation system.

Governor Alia’s six months in office has witnessed a downpour of commendable transformative achievements which have ignited hope, improved livelihoods, and rekindled the spirit of optimism amongst Benue people,” the statement reads.

“Leadership Newspaper highlighted some of the governor’s achievements in line with the priorities of his administration as enshrined in his blueprint.

“They emphasized timely delivery of fertilizer to farmers at subsidized rate, prompt and sustained payment of salaries, pensions, and gratuity, and eradication of the menace of ghost workers.

“The media house also acknowledged the new retirement age and length of service for primary and secondary school teachers which governor Alia has approved, the recovery of numerous looted vehicles, tens of hectares of land, and numerous landed properties from the previous administration, as well as approved training of 10, 000 training of Benue youths in ICT.

“Ongoing construction of 16 roads measuring 15.39 kilometres within the Makurdi metropolis, and donation of 100 buses to Benue Links Company to ease movement mad cushion the effect of fuel subsidy removal on Benue people.”

The chief press secretary named some of the governor’s achievements highlighted by the media organisation as improved monthly allowances of N15,000 for National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) members and N100,000 for NYSC doctors who are serving in the state.

Recently, the Benue house of assembly passed a vote of confidence on Alia for his effective management of state resources and other leadership achievements.

Tell us your conversion story, how did you become born again ?
-Was it personal decision?.
-you were evangelized?
- was it because of a miracle you experienced?

His story above stated he is late for three month

FILEBE:


Sorry o but no be talk be wetin I bold so. At all! E no follow. Irrespective of how many batches he paid it , as long as tenant made full payment before due date, you have nothing against him. How can you use his payment in installment to judge his future? That is vile and very petty .

The OP didn't say he won't be paying. It is after one fails to pay a house rent that you give quit notice .

All these landlords be playing God. For God's sake have compassion as a landlord!! The economic situation is hard!

Getting money to rent a house is not easy abi? So getting money to buy a land and build a house is easy. Common, staying in a house without paying rent is like barbing without paying, how do you want the landlord to survive if that's his only source of money?
Any Tennant who can not pay rent should relocate to his village

greggng:



I am talking from experience...what you read in your book is different from court practice. The moral aspect of this case most come to play . I have accompanied some tenants to ogba magistrate Court...I am impressed how cases of this nature are judged . Infact in one of a tenants last appearance he was ask to take 3 more months despite spending 6minths ...Thevreadon for evicting this tenant us laughable cos nobody digs money from ground ...getting a house involved alot ...you need to raise money raise agency fee raise agreement fee and damages...is nit easy ...I am not encouraging him.to make trouble but if he can't raise money b4 the expiration of the notice ...then the landlord had to approach the court to evict him after due process ...he cannot be evicted by force ..I don't need to tell you who I am but I have helped some people on issues if this nature ......

For people like you who like to use the law to destroy people's investment.
The landlord built that house to generate revenue but bad tenant who want to live above their means will always want to scatter the landlord's plan.
It will take up to 15-20 years before he can recover the money he use in building that house talk more of profits.
E.G you are paying 500,000, multiply it by 20 years, that will give you 10,000,000.
With the current Chicago situation in Nigeria you can not buy land in Lagos with that money talk more of building on it, now somebody built his house and you are paying rent like daily contribution, please pity the land too
#one reason I don't like building houses for rent.
