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.
Nigerian news analyst, Mahmud Jega, has shared his opinion on the recent airstrike carried out by the United States in Nigeria, stating that Nigerians should not blame President Bola Tinubu for the incident.
Jega made this statement during a recent interview, where he said he does not believe many people will hold the Tinubu administration responsible, as Donald Trump had issued threats against Nigeria long before Tinubu’s administration.
“No, I don’t think many people will blame the Tinubu administration for what is happening now because President Donald Trump, when he first made the threats, it was clearly not in coordination with the Tinubu administration or the government of Nigeria,” Jega said.
It has been reported that the United States carried out an airstrike targeting ISIS in the northwest region of Nigeria. The order was reportedly given by former U.S. President Donald Trump.
“Tonight, at my direction as Commander in Chief, the United States launched a powerful and deadly strike against ISIS terrorist elements in northwest Nigeria,” Trump said.
He added, “I have previously warned these terrorists that if they did not stop the slaughtering of Christians, there would be hell to pay, and tonight, there was.”
The Federal Government of Nigeria has officially declared the holiday dates for the festive season.
Thursday, December 25 will be observed as Christmas Day, December 26 as Boxing Day, and Thursday, January 1 as New Year’s Day.
The declaration was made by the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Interior, Dr. Magdalene Ajani. He also added that Nigerians should celebrate the holidays in faith and pray for the nation.
