Influencer Sir Jarus’ Case Struck Out with Conditions
Social media influencer Suraj Oyewale, popularly known as Sir Jarus, recently announced that the court case filed against him by the Lagos State government through the Domestic and Sexual Violence Agency (DSVA) has been struck out.
This follows his admission on social media last week that he had assaulted his first wife, Mrs. Oyewale Ayoola, because she allegedly sought help from a “Cele Prophet” to stop him from taking a second wife. His admission sparked outrage, leading to his arrest and subsequent court appearance.
In a post shared on his X (formerly Twitter) handle, Sir Jarus confirmed the court’s decision, which included conditions such as undergoing counseling, using his platform to advocate against domestic violence, and staying off social media for a month.
He expressed his commitment to complying with these conditions and urged married individuals to seek peaceful resolutions to marital disputes, emphasizing patience as a key to solving issues.
Sir Jarus also took the opportunity to thank the Lagos State Police Command for their prompt attention to the matter, as well as his legal representatives.
He highlighted his long-standing use of social media for positive influence, particularly in providing education and career advice to younger individuals.
Despite the current situation, he expressed confidence that this isolated incident would not overshadow his broader contributions and reiterated his intention to continue his mentorship and advocacy work upon his return to social media.
The Director-General of the World Trade Organization (WTO), Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, has spoken on Nigeria’s economy, stating that the country lacks a good maintenance culture.
She said “The fact is that endowments alone do not add value. Budgetary allocations alone do not lead to new roads or good maintenance.”
“We lack a maintenance culture in the country. I have to say that. I’m Nigerian, but we need that. We need better ports and digital infrastructure, and lower trade costs. Execution is what matters, and successful execution requires focus. It requires prioritisation.”
Politician and former presidential candidate Peter Obi speaks on President Bola Tinubu’s comments regarding the rising hunger and worsening economic situation in Nigeria.
It can be noted that the President recently stated that hunger has always existed in Nigeria.
Peter Obi responded “I watched with deep concern the statement made by President Bola Tinubu to the Catholic Bishops, that there has always been hunger in Nigeria, even before he was born.”
“While it is true that hunger has been a part of human life and has existed in our country for decades, such a statement appears insensitive to the plight of the millions of Nigerians who face worsening economic hardship today.”
Reports have been shared stating that the Nigerian Army has launched a new programme designed to train and improve the skills of engineers in tackling threats posed by Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs).
The seminar is being organised by the 41 Engineer Brigade of the 1 Division Nigerian Army.
It was stated “Improvised Explosive Devices have become one of the greatest security threats confronting the Nigerian Army in ongoing counter-insurgency operations. Their widespread use has complicated military operations and humanitarian activities in conflict-affected areas.”
