Bobrisky Slams EFCC Amid Officer’s Fatal Shooting in Anambra Operation
Nigerian transgender media personality Okuneye Idris Olanrewaju has taken to social media to criticize the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) following the tragic death of one of its officers, Aminu Salisu.

The Assistant Superintendent of Officer (ASO) was killed during an operation in Anambra State.

Bobrisky, who recently faced police charges for the abuse of banknotes, expressed his disdain for the EFCC, calling them “the most wicked people in Nigeria.”

He recounted his past experiences on how he was arrested and suspected of doing fraud.

He also spoke on the incident when, during his own ordeal with the police, the EFCC had requested Papaya’s phone number and how he had refused.

He wrote:

“Even though I’m not talking to her, I won’t be heartless enough to set her up like that, because I wasn’t trained to be a snitch.”

Fresh condemnation has trailed the sudden closure of the Akanu Ibiam International Airport in Enugu.

The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) had announced that there is a significant rupture in the asphalt surface at a critical section of the runway that requires emergency repairs.

FAAN, in a statement by the Director of Public Affairs and Consumer Protection, Mrs Obiageli Orah, stated that the repairs will be conducted on that portion of the runway from April 22nd to May 6th, 2025.

FAAN added that all flights to the airport will be diverted to nearby airports.

However, in a statement made available to journalists on Wednesday, the National President of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth Council Worldwide, Mazi Okwu Nnabuike said it was unjust for the FAAN to shut the airport without giving adequate notice to the users.

Okwu said, “to make the matter worse, it came during the festive period, as though Ndigbo, who are known to be regular travelers during this period, are the targets.

“Did the airport runway suddenly develop a fault? We are aware that airlines have been complaining about this, but the government waited till the Easter period to hastily shut down the airport, throwing our people into confusion.

“This is not the first time Ndigbo are being subjected to this cruel treatment. The last time the runway was re-asphalted, it was also shut down during the Easter period.

“However, what makes the present case worse is the lack of notice.

“The cruel and degrading treatment of the affairs of Ndigbo in Nigeria should stop.

“We know for sure that this cannot happen in Lagos, Abuja or Kano airports. Why also Ndigbo?” Okwu queried.

The Ohanaeze Youths President urged the government to ensure that the rehabilitation is carried out and completed on the stipulated date.

He also said the explanations offered by Aviation Minister, Festus Keyamo on the concessioning of the airport was not clear enough.

According to him, “the minister merely painted words without saying anything concrete.

“He said the process is still on; we want to hear- how many years are there in the pipeline for the concessioning. If it is not 80 years, how many years are they proposing?

“We want to make it clear that we are not going to accept anything different from what shall be obtained from other airports.”

Obi Cubana’s Adopted Son Claims He’s Next of Kin – Obi Responds

Recently, Obi Cubana’s adopted son posted a video on TikTok saying he is the “next of kin” to Obi Cubana. Shortly after, Obi Cubana posted a photo of his biological son on Instagram with the caption: “Ancient and Modern. Eyes on the ball – AKA the next of kin.”

This sparked a lot of reactions online. Some people said Obi Cubana was being petty, while others agreed he did the right thing by clearing the air.

Here’s my opinion:

Obi Cubana did the right thing. Since the adopted son made a public statement, it was only fair for Obi to make a public clarification. If he had kept quiet, people might think he agreed, and that could cause family problems in the future.

We need to stop being too emotional. In Africa, most people still see biological children as different from adopted ones. That’s just the reality of our culture.

That’s why I advise women who are getting close to menopause to try and have their own children if possible.
If you’re over 35, have a stable job, and your body can still carry a baby, consider finding a responsible man to father your child. It’s better to raise a child from your own blood than adopt one when you don’t know the full background of the child you adopt unless your egg and supamu is not working. Lets be practical, not just emotional.

According to Ekwutosblog , Troops of Operation Safe Haven (OPSH) on Saturday, April 19, 2025, averted what could have been a deadly clash between ethnic groups in Plateau State after armed youths attacked a Fulani settlement in Riyom Local Government Area, PRNigeria reports.

The crisis erupted in Tanjol Village around 1:00 p.m. when suspected Berom youths opened fire on cattle belonging to Fulani herders, killing one cow and injuring two others.

The provocative assault triggered a swift mobilization of Fulani youths from nearby Mahanga in preparation for a reprisal, raising fears of renewed ethnic violence.

According to Zagazola, prompt intervention by security forces — including OPSH’s Sector 6, reinforced by Sector 4 and the Forward Operating Base (FOB) Gashish — successfully dispersed the armed groups before the situation escalated.

Two Fulani youths sustained gunshot wounds during the incident, while the attackers fled into surrounding bushes.

Troops and police have since intensified patrols in the area to prevent further unrest.
