Youth group requests FG to ban porn and dating sites from Nigeria’s cyberspace

The Arewa Youth Consultative Council (AYCC) has requested that the Federal Government block sexual and immorally-related sites from the Nigerian cyberspace.

According to the group this request is the youths progressive effort to building the nation.

In a statement signed by the group’s spokesperson, Muhammad Ibrahim, on Friday, August 14, 2020, AYCC said it is concerned by the exposure of Nigerian youths to ‘sexual contamination’.

The group said the exposure of Nigerian youths to sexual content is fueling a culture of indecency, immorality and increasing cases of sexual misbehavior.

Arewa youth in a two page letter addressed to the Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, Isa Pantami, called on the government to quickly intervene in blocking immoral and sexual sites.

Similarly, they suggested that individuals or companies that refuse to comply with the ban should be fined in billions 

A part of the statement reads;

“we’re confident that your intervention can greatly block or cripple the emerging new order of indecency, immorality, and increasing cases of sexual behaviors. Sexualized interactions, immoral communications, exposure to pornography, online dating and other social ills. This is sacrosanct, as the phenomena is growing rapidly  everyday. we must do something as a nation that believe in christianity and Islam even thpugh we claim to be secular, yet no religion or culture , tribe or section of Nigerians can justify the incestous exposure of our youth to sexual contamination”.

 

However , the Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, in response on his Twitter account, said the group should redirect the request instead to the Ministry of Information and Culture, headed by Lai Mohammed.

According to the Board’s Executive Secretary, Mr Bamidele Balogun, henceforth all audio and visual contents produced within Lagos state shall attract the payment of 5% levy on each item.

This new policy definitely did not go down well with some Lagosians as they have taken to their social media accounts to condemn the proposed plan.

Twitter user, @tryraisins connected the dots and tweeted that this policy came barely 24hrs after popular kids famous for remaking blockbuster movies, Ikorodubois received high-tech gadgets from Netflix.

Read some of the comments:

@IAmMrMeks: If enemy of progress was a country then it’ll be Nigeria.

@AimLEGEND_: Our government is an enemy of progress. The Lagos State govt is like that useless landlord that will not maintain the house or fix dilapidated parts, but the moment you buy a new car, fiam, he will increase your rent.

@danny_Aguele: Ikorodu bois will simply move to Ogun state and become Abeokuta Bois… E no hard naa.

Mr Bamidele ended his statement with an encouragement to producers and others in the entertainment industry to take advantage of this opening and key in to the platform, as it will be to their “benefits“.

Sister of late Gokada CEO pens emotional tribute

Gokada ceo sis

Ruby Angela Saleh, sister of murdered Gokada CEO Fahim Saleh has penned down an emotional tribute to her brother.

Sister of Gokada CEO

If you recall, the limbless, headless torso of the millionaire tech entrepreneur was found inside his $2.25 million apartment in New York on Tuesday afternoon, with an electric saw lying next to the remains, police in New York said.

Sister of Gokada CEO

In an article posted on Medium by Ruby, she described in detail Fahim’s life events, death and funeral.

She wrote about how she heard about her brother’s death:

On July 14th at 10:47 pm, my phone rang. I was in bed next to my husband and had just begun dozing off, but I answered because it was my aunt, calling from New York. “I have some very bad news,” she said. She sounded spooked and was reluctant to divulge more, so I knew something really bad had happened to someone in my immediate family. My shoulders stiffened while the rest of my body went limp. Maybe one of my parents had Covid?

“What happened?“ I kept asking. “What happened?” I was having trouble drawing a breath. I put the phone on speaker so my husband could listen.

“It’s very bad,” she said.

“Just tell me, Aunty. What happened?”

“Fahim isn’t with us anymore,” she said.

Her words didn’t make sense. “What do you mean?” How could my healthy, vibrant, creative, beautiful 33-year-old baby brother not be “with us anymore”?

Ruby continued:

“Within 48 hours of hearing the news, I was sitting with my cousin and sister on floral bedsheets on my cousin’s cast iron bed when I got a call from the funeral home. The man on the line said that due to Covid, I would have to identify my brother’s body via a photo he would send to me. His message popped up within minutes. I immediately felt nauseated. “It’s here,” I said. My sister, cousin, and I held hands and said a prayer before opening the attachment. And there it was: a photo of my beautiful brother, lifeless.

My sister howled. “No, no, no, it’s real now, it’s real now,” she kept repeating.

I held her tight. We wanted to ask that photo, ask our beloved brother, “How did this happen to you, baby?” I began to caress his face on the computer screen with my index finger as tears poured down my cheeks. I just wanted to tell him, “I’m so sorry, Fahim, I’m so sorry, Fahim. My poor, sweet brother. My heart.”

My father heard our cries and knocked on the door, asking what was going on. We quickly shut the computer, wiped our faces, and told him we were fine. We could never tell him what we had seen.”

She went on to describe what her growing up years with Fahim was like.

Gokada ceo sis

Gokada ceo sis

According to Ruby, Fahim was passionate about technology and discovering internet was a way for him to channel God’s given gift.

She spoke about how industrious the CEO of Lagos-based motorcycle-hailing company was, even from a very young age.

He built his first website at 12, “The Saleh Family” and monetized his first website at the age of 13.

Gokada CEO sis

She added:

From the time he discovered the Internet until the time I last saw him, my brother could get so lost in his work that the sun could come up before he realized he had skipped both lunch and dinner. Our father fretted over Fahim’s habits.

Ruby spoke about Fahim’s numerous business endeavours and his desire to impact the lives of people.

She wrote:

At 33, his business interests had matured from expressing his love of jokes and pranks to changing people’s lives through technology in the developing world, while employing the most impoverished of them. Having come from so little, Fahim had zero interest in being a rich entrepreneur who only hung out with other rich entrepreneurs. His heart was most open to those in need. “These drivers depend on me,” he would say when talking about Gokada, the motorbike-hailing app he developed in Nigeria. Just as he had once been determined to ease our father’s hardships, he later dedicated himself to easing the hardships of countless others.

Gokada CEO sisGokada CEO sis

Ruby further narrated the events that happened before and during Fahim’ funeral.

But on Sunday, July 19th, 2020, my family and I had to bury my sweet brother in the Hudson Valley. I had to arrange my beautiful boy’s funeral. Three days prior, the funeral home called to report that it would not be possible to sew his limbs and head back onto his torso before burial. Upon receiving that news, I closed my eyes and crossed my arms over my chest like a Pharaoh, squeezing my phone against my body. My hands formed fists that I pushed into my heart with all my strength to contain my pain. Then I pleaded with the man to make sure all of my sweet brother’s body parts were in their proper places in the casket. The day before the funeral, the man called me again. “It wasn’t easy, but we were able to put him back together,” he said.

The morning of the funeral, I laid restless and limp in my sister’s bed at 3 a.m. listening to my parents sob together in Fahim’s room, with the checkered bed sheets and our childhood photos on the wall, their conversation too muffled behind the wall to understand.

Actress Maryam Charles explains why women should pamper their husbands.

Nollywood actress/filmmaker, Maryam Charles, recently took to her social media page to advocate for men to be pampered.

According to the actress, men go through a lot and they have it rough but most of them (the good ones) never complain. She advised women who have such men by their side to pleasure, pamper and praise him.

Her post reads ;

I sometimes look at my husband and I’m amazed at how hard/smart he works just to provide a better life for our family.

See ehn, men go through a lot. From the time they are born, the mantle of provision is placed upon them. Everyday they wake up and it’s how to make sure food is on the table for those at home that is on their minds. Kai! No be small thing o.

The responsible ones amongst them don’t complain, you will not see them coming on social media bashing anybody, their own is to do their work, provide and protect their loved ones and go. It’s the irresponsible ones that go around looking for girls to destroy, those ones have no future.

I’m not saying women don’t also hustle or provide, I’m just giving props to the men. They have it rough and it shouldn’t be so. To the women who have a responsible man by their side, take care of your man. Pamper him. Pleasure him. Praise him. Make him feel good because the words of our mouth serve as fuel for them. Force him to relax from time to time because if you leave them, these men will work and work and work lol

To all the boys and young men out there, always strive to be a responsible man.

And please, don’t listen to those who say marriage is a scam. Marriage is a beautiful thing if you are blessed with the right person. But if you don’t want to get married, nothing spoil. Again, don’t listen to wrong advice from foolish people.

Teacher sentenced to life imprisonment for raping his pastor’s 10-year-old daughter

Teacher sentenced

A teacher, Omotayo Adanlawo has been sentenced to life imprisonment by Ondo State High Court for raping a 10-year-old girl.

The judge, Justice Samuel Bola, who gave the judgement, said the defendant failed to give convincing evidence and testimony to prove his innocence in the rape allegations.

The sexual assault incident occured on August 24 2018. Adanlawo who used to attend the girl’s father’s church, allegedly went to the victim’s house at Iju in Akure North Local Government Area of Ondo State when she was alone and raped her after which he threatened her not to tell anyone else she will die.

After the incident, the victim was said to have complained of stomach pains as she could not walk afterwards. Her mother took her to a hospital for examination where it was revealed that the girl had been raped.

According to a family source, after rigorous interrogation, the little girl opened up and said Adanlawo had sexual intercourse with her.

The case was then reported at Iju-Itaogbolu Divisional Headquarters before being transfered to Ala area command, and a medical report revealed that there was actual penetration into the 10-year-old girl’s private part.

Adanlawo, in his statement before the police, claimed the young girl told him to lay on her after asking for 50 naira and chinchin, but during cross examination he claimed that he was at his home at the time of the incident.

He also claimed to be battling with hernia and as such was not medically fit to have had sexual intercourse with the girl.

Justice Bola in his judgement, however, said the prosecution was able to prove there was penetration in the rape allegation against Adanlawo.

He also said the defendant gave no medical report to prove his condition as well as any evidence to suggest he was in his house as claimed on the day of the incident.

The Judge subsequently sentenced Adanlawo to life imprisonment in line with section 358 of the crimanal laws of Ondo State.
