Lagos State Police spokesperson, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, has expressed relief that Stephen Abuwatsaye, the cab driver allegedly assaulted by House of Representatives member Alex Ikwechegh, did not issue an apology at a police station or before the case went to court.
The incident in Abuja, which occurred two weeks ago, drew public attention when Stephen recently released a video offering an unreserved apology to the lawmaker for “provoking” him.
Stephen’s apology video, in which he cited personal forgiveness and a desire for God’s mercy, sparked mixed reactions online, with some speculating that he may have been pressured.
In response on X (formerly Twitter), Hundeyin acknowledged the speculation but noted he was grateful the video wasn’t made under police involvement, as it would likely have led to criticism against the police force.

Elon Musk’s DOGE Exposes $4.7 Trillion in Untraceable Payments

The U.S. Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), led by Elon Musk, has uncovered $4.7 trillion in untraceable payments within the U.S. Treasury Department.
In a statement released on Monday via its official X account, DOGE explained that the Treasury Access Symbol (TAS) field was previously optional for these payments, which made tracking nearly impossible.
The TAS field is a crucial identification code that links Treasury payments to specific budget line items.
DOGE mentioned that following its intervention over the weekend, the TAS field is now a mandatory requirement for Treasury payments.

The White House clarified on Monday that Elon Musk’s role in the Trump administration is as a senior adviser to the president, not as an official employee of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
A filing from Joshua Fisher, the director of the White House’s Office of Administration, confirmed that Musk does not have decision-making power and can only offer advice or relay the president’s directives.
Fisher’s filing, part of a case against Musk filed by the State of New Mexico, emphasized that Musk is not employed by the US DOGE Service, nor does he hold the title of DOGE Service Administrator.
The filing also stressed that, like other senior White House advisors, Musk lacks the formal authority to make government decisions on his own.

A bold moment unfolded at the Zion Prayer Movement Outreach Ministry (ZPMO) when a female member publicly proposed to evangelist Ebuka Obi during the church’s Singles Conference on Sunday.
The unexpected proposal was captured in a viral video shared by the ZPMO founder on his Instagram page. In the clip, the woman revealed that she had received a prophecy years ago about marrying a prophet and later had a dream confirming the person’s identity.
“In 2022, someone prophesied that I would marry a prophet. I believed the message, and God confirmed it in my dream. I also received the person’s name, but he wasn’t someone I could just approach. So, as a Christian sister, I kept praying that God would reveal it to him,” she explained.
Curious, the Imo State-based cleric asked her to describe the person, hinting at whether she had met him before. Without hesitation, she responded, “Not just somewhere. I’m seeing the person right now. Daddy, the person is from Imo State.”
Shocked by the unexpected revelation, Ebuka Obi responded with laughter, captioning the post with laughing emojis and writing, “She proposed marriage to EVANG EBUKA OBI during the Singles Conference.”
