on


A Missouri couple, Tyler Wade Gibson and his wife, Bailey Alexus Gibson, have been charged with child abuse following a botched circumcision performed on a child at their home.

According to a probable cause affidavit from the Morgan County Prosecuting Attorney, Tyler has been charged with child abuse and performing an unauthorized surgery. Bailey is also facing child abuse charges.

The affidavit reveals that on November 27, Tyler “knowingly performed a circumcision” on a child under 18 at their residence, resulting in significant physical injury. Tyler, who is not a licensed medical practitioner, reportedly used a utility tool for the procedure. He admitted to police that he had no formal medical training but had conducted research and prayed a blessing before attempting the surgery.

Following the botched procedure, the child was initially taken to Lake Regional Hospital and later transferred to Columbia University Hospital for further treatment. Police were notified by the hospital shortly after midnight on November 28.

Tyler reportedly left the hospital against medical advice, claiming he and Bailey grew tired of waiting after four hours. He admitted to police that he was unprepared for the amount of bleeding and decided to take the child to the hospital after the situation escalated.

Court documents also state that Bailey admitted to assisting Tyler during the procedure.

Tyler appeared in court on December 3, while Bailey is scheduled for a court appearance on January 28, 2025. Both face serious charges as authorities continue to investigate the incident.

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has strongly criticized the Nigeria Police Force for arresting and detaining human rights activist Omoyele Sowore. Sowore had gone to the Force Headquarters in Abuja on Wednesday to honour an invitation from the Inspector-General of Police Monitoring Unit over a petition.

He arrived with his lawyers and members of the ‘Take It Back Movement’, but was taken into custody and has remained there since. By Thursday, Sowore claimed that his arm had been broken while in detention, alleging that he was assaulted and sprayed with chemicals by officers.

Reacting on his X page, Atiku described the incident as a disgraceful misuse of power that must be condemned by all who stand for justice. He said Sowore’s only “crime” was speaking out against injustice, nepotism, and bad governance, yet he was attacked, injured, and humiliated under the watch of the police.

The city of Awka was filled with emotion on the evening of Tuesday, August 5, 2025, as people from all walks of life came out to honour the life of Ifesinachi Onyekere, popularly known as Fish Magnet, a young entrepreneur whose sudden death shook the community.

The candlelight procession, led by controversial social commentator VeryDarkMan (VDM), was both a tribute and a public outcry against the growing insecurity in the region.

Fish Magnet also known as Ifesinachi was a hardworking fish farmer who turned his hustle into a brand that many respected. He provided jobs, offered support to small vendors, and inspired other young people in Anambra. He was kidnapped from his home in Okpuno and later found dead.

VDM, who led the procession, used the opportunity to speak out about the rise in kidnappings and killings in Anambra. He called on both state and federal authorities to stop ignoring the cries of the people and take action before more lives are lost.

Before the event, police authorities warned VDM not to disrupt public peace and reminded him that the family of the deceased had not called for any public procession. However, the walk remained calm, with officers quietly monitoring to prevent any issues. Despite early fears of tension, the crowd remained peaceful and focused on honouring Ifesinachi’s memory.

Kwam 1 Stops Plane from Taking Off at Abuja Airport After Argument with ValueJet

An incident involving legendary Fuji musician Kwam 1 (King Wasiu Ayinde Marshal) and ValueJet Airlines has grabbed the nation’s attention after a chaotic scene unfolded at the Abuja airport on Tuesday, August 5, 2025.

Kwam 1 was set to board ValueJet’s VK 201 flight from Abuja to Lagos, but things took a different turn when airport officials questioned the content of a flask he carried with him. According to reports, crew members suspected the container had alcohol, which isn’t allowed on board. They asked him to hand it over, but he allegedly refused. He insisted it was either water or something for medical use. The refusal to surrender the flask caused a standoff between him and the airline staff.

Things got more intense when Kwam 1 reportedly stepped out onto the airport tarmac and stood close to the aircraft’s path, apparently trying to stop the flight from taking off. Videos taken at the scene show the aircraft taxiing with Kwam 1 still in front of it.

The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) and the Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) have both weighed in. Two ValueJet pilots have now been suspended for starting the aircraft’s taxiing without final clearance from the control tower, which goes against air safety regulations. In addition to this, Aviation Minister Festus Keyamo has ordered that Kwam 1 be placed on a no-fly list, warning that any airline that flies him could face penalties, including losing their license.

The airline is also said to be considering legal action against him, while reports suggest he may be blacklisted from flying within the country until the matter is resolved.

Kwam 1, however, has spoken out. He insists he did nothing wrong and that ValueJet has already apologized to him. He said the airline even offered to fly him privately to Lagos after the drama, which he turned down. According to him, the flask only contained water and not alcohol, and he believes the entire situation was blown out of proportion.

Meanwhile, actor and media personality Patrick Doyle has spoken in defense of Kwam 1. He shared that public figures often get targeted in situations like this and suggested that airline staff may have tried to provoke the musician. Doyle recalled similar treatment during his own travels, pointing out how these situations can quickly get out of hand.
