Okpebholo Swears in Three Judges Left Unsworn by Obaseki

Edo State Governor, Monday Okpebholo, has made a significant move toward fulfilling his promises made during his inauguration by approving the swearing-in of three judges who had been overlooked by his predecessor, Godwin Obaseki.
This decision comes after the three judges were among eight candidates cleared and recommended for appointment by the National Judicial Council (NJC) in June 2023, but were not sworn in before Obaseki left office.
The three judges are Ojo Maureen Osa, Godwin Jeff Okundamiya, and Edoghogho Eboigbe.
Their appointments are seen as crucial in reinforcing the state’s judiciary and upholding justice in Edo.
Okpebholo had made it clear in his inaugural address on November 12, 2024, that he was committed to ensuring that the judiciary functioned without unnecessary delays or hindrances.
During his speech, he directed the state’s Chief Judge, Daniel Okungbowa, to investigate why the judges were not sworn in by the previous administration, promising to take action swiftly.
A statement from the Secretary to the State Government, Musa Umar Ikhilor, confirmed that the three judges would be formally sworn in by Governor Okpebholo on December 2, 2024, at 1:00 p.m.
The ceremony will take place at the State Executive Council Chambers at the Government House in Benin City.
Ikhilor emphasized that this decision reflects the governor’s firm belief in the rule of law, the importance of the separation of powers outlined in Nigeria’s Constitution, and his commitment to ensuring that the judiciary is empowered to carry out its role in delivering justice.

Dunamis to Stop Live Broadcasts as Pastor Enenche Urges Members to Attend Church Physically

Dr Paul Enenche, the Senior Pastor of Dunamis International Gospel Centre, has declared an end to live broadcasts of church services. Speaking during Sunday’s service, he urged members to make it a priority to attend church physically rather than relying on watching from home.
Referencing Hebrews 10:25, Pastor Enenche stressed the need for believers to gather together in one place, highlighting that the church assembly plays a vital role in spiritual growth. He noted that virtual participation should no longer be encouraged, except for those living abroad who may not have access to a Dunamis branch.
“For many of you used to watching from your living rooms, this might be the last time,” he said, as the church prepares to shut down live streams on platforms like Dunamis TV, YouTube, and Facebook, which previously aired all Sunday and midweek services.

Tinubu Says Boko Haram is Behind Borno Bombing as He Mourns the Victims

President Bola Tinubu has blamed the recent suicide bombing in Konduga, Borno State, on remaining elements of Boko Haram, saying the attackers now target vulnerable civilians to cause distractions.

In a statement released by his media aide, Bayo Onanuga, Tinubu condemned the attack as cowardly and extended his condolences to the people and government of Borno State. He also directed the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) to step in and support the victims and survivors.
The President further expressed sympathy to families affected by Saturday morning’s explosion in Kano, which occurred at a scrap metal yard. The blast injured 15 people and claimed five lives. Tinubu emphasized the need for proper safety standards in workplaces to prevent such tragedies.

Akpabio Says Tinubu Will Win Big in 2027 as Governor Eno will be Re-elected

Senate President Godswill Akpabio has expressed strong confidence in President Bola Tinubu’s chances of dominating the 2027 presidential election. Speaking at a grand reception in Uyo to welcome Akwa Ibom State Governor Umo Eno into the All Progressives Congress (APC), Akpabio said he believed Tinubu would secure 99.9% of the votes in the upcoming election.
Governor Eno recently left the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for the APC, blaming unresolved leadership issues within his former party for the switch. Akpabio, addressing the crowd, praised Eno’s political journey, noting how difficult it was for him to become governor. But he assured him that with his new political alignment, things would take a different turn.
He boldly predicted that Eno would become the first governor in the state’s history to be re-elected in 2027, adding that both the governor and President Tinubu were in for a smooth political ride moving forward.
