An immigrant from the Republic of Benin, Adamu Sabi Sime, has been arrested by the Kwara State Command of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, NSCDC, for allegedly having carnal knowledge of his biological mother.
Babawale Zaid Afolabi, spokesman of the command, said Adamu’s mother, Fati Sime, had produced three children for her son.
“On Thursday, September 09,2021, one Malam Bandele, the district head of Moshe Community in Kaiama Local Government Area of Kwara state, reported the incestous act committed by one Adamu Sabi Sime and his mother, Fati Sime of the same community.
“Men from the intelligence unit and NSCDC operatives in Kaiama swung into action and the outcome of investigations established the fact that the mother (Fati) has three children for her biological son,” he said.

Babawale, said further checks revealed that “the younger brother of the suspect, who was also confirmed to be sleeping with the mother, is now at large.”
The spokesman disclosed that the mother and her two sons don’t have the necessary papers to stay in Nigeria.
“They have been handed over to the Nigeria Immigration Service, NIS, for background checks and further action,” he added

Saga, a Big Brother Naija housemate, has said Pere is lonely and suicidal.
Saga said this in a conversation with Nini, his love interest.
He added that if he were Pere, he would ask for a voluntary exit and leave the show.
He said Pere can’t be trusted and is always trying to trigger Nini.
<a id="more" name="more"></a>
Citing examples, Saga mentioned the wildcard issue where other housemates later found out Pere and Maria were the wildcards.
However Nini tried to explain to Saga that Pere has his back in the house but he doubted.
Saga said, “Pere is trying to trigger you, he knows you don’t like him.
“How many times do you see us talk together, when he’s coming, when I hear his voice, I always want to hide.
“Pere is always instigating things. He’s lonely as f**k and exhibiting suicidal behaviors.”
 
Meanwhile, Pere had told Biggie that Saga and Yousef had his back in the house.

A group, Southern Nigeria Solidarity Movement, SONISM, has commended the governors of Lagos and Rivers states on their position on the issue of value added tax (VAT).
The group also lauded the lawmakers in the two states for backing the enabling laws in this regard.
It would be recalled that the governments of Lagos State in Nigeria’s South West geopolitical region and Rivers State in the country’s South-South region have started collecting VAT, a responsibility hitherto left to the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS).
It would also be recalled that only a small fraction of the VAT collected by FIRS from the states were given them while the larger percentage of the money was given to the Federal Government.
<a id="more" name="more"></a>
The group in a release signed by Sola Ojewusi, National President, and Salvator Amadi, National Secretary in Owerri, Imo State, commended also the judgment of the Federal High Court in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, early this week in favour of VAT collection by the state.
The group said, “Governor Nyesom Wike’ notice to corporate bodies in Rivers State early this week that “Rivers State VAT is for Rivers people and not for Abuja people” is in tandem with the reasonable clamour for an equitable and just Nigerian Federation guided by fiscal federalism and devolution of powers from the overly centralised unitary government imposed by the military and antidemocratic forces.
“That states in a certain region of the country where alcoholic beverages are forbidden are allowed to benefit from VAT realised from alcoholic beverages in another region of the country, is another example of the absurdities begging for redress in Nigeria.”
SONISM urged other governors in the south to end their self- destructive politics of self deceit and emulate proactive governors like Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State, Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State on the issue of VAT, Governor Rotimi Akeredolu of Ondo State, Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State and Governor Samuel Orton of Benue State on the issue of open grazing of cattle.

Paul Pogba celebrated Manchester United’s 4-1 victory over Newcastle with Grammy award-winning Nigerian rapper Burna Boy.
This is as he was seen on stage with the Nigerian rapper at Parklife festival, hours after Manchester United defeated Newcastle.
Pogba provided two assists in the game and got the second-highest votes for Manchester United’s Man of the Match against Newcastle after Cristiano Ronaldo who scored a brace on his Reds return.
The Frenchman only got five per cent of the votes but on any other day than Ronaldo’s return, one could have expected that number to be higher.
<a id="more" name="more"></a>
Bruno Fernandes finished third on four per cent. The Portuguese magnifico smashed in our third of the afternoon with an incredible strike from outside the box to ensure a two-goal lead ten minutes from time.
Pogba was seen rocking to Burna Boy’s ‘Focus’ at the festival.
Earlier,  the 30-year-old Grammy winner shared a picture of himself watching Manchester United vs Newcastle match in a 2021-22 United home shirt with No 23 and his name written across the back.
‘Watched my brother kill it! @paulpogba,’ he posted.

Manchester United midfielder, Bruno Fernandes, has dismissed claims that he and Cristiano Ronaldo cannot play in the same team.
Ronaldo scored twice while Fernandes also got on the scoresheet, as United beat Newcastle 4-1 on Saturday.
Fernandes instantly became United’s talisman after he arrived from Sporting Lisbon in January 2020.
However, Ronaldo’s arrival this summer, led to questions over whether his influence would wane.
<a id="more" name="more"></a>
“‘Of course, that was never in doubt. Good players can be put together and always play well. Some days you can play well, some other days no. But it is not because one is closing the space of another. It’s because football is like that sometimes.
“Everyone knows what Cristiano Ronaldo brought for the club and we are really happy to have him. The most important, as he will say, is the result for the team. Good players can always play well together,” Fernandes told the media after the Newcastle game.
