Popular policewoman, Dolapo Badmus has frowned at the statement made by singer Naira Marley who said having big booty is better than Masters Degree.
Condemning the statement, Dolapo Badmus wrote on Instagram:
“So having a big body part is now better than having Education or vocational qualification? (Like seriously?) I still cant get over this ! I’m saying it again, we need to restore sanity to our system and stop tolerationg public nuisance! its mediocracy for anyone to applaud an obviously deliquent and unproductive dead duck _deemed a bad influence) hiding under the guise of making music, obnoxious musice for that matter.
My advice to younger ones: let no one confuse you. To hav a good body part is great……… but to have educational or vocational qualification is more important! Infact its non negotiable! Your body part cannot give you sustainable existence only good educational or vocational qualification will do…. be guided #saynotoharddrugs #harddrugsdestroys”
Members of the members of the Ghana Union of Traders Association (GUTA) today, closed shops owned by Nigerians in five markets in Kumasi, the Ashanti Region capital.
It was the second time this year the association would shut Nigerian-owned shops, claiming it was waging a war on foreigners doing retail business in the country.
The law bans foreigners from operating taxis, beauty salons, selling medicine, production and sale of sachet water, among others. The markets where Nigerian traders were shut out were in Kejetia, Suame Magazine, Adum and Asafo.
GUTA Public Relations Officer, Albert Mensah Offei, told Joy FM that the action will soon be extended to other parts of the country. However, according to Ghanaweb.com, the action of the association is being interpreted as a retaliation for the closure of the Nigerian land border, which has affected traders in the West African region.
GUTA recently noted that the closure of Nigeria’s trade borders to Benin and other neighbouring countries is an outright breach of ECOWAS treaties. The President of the Association, Joseph Obeng who spoke to Accra-based Joy FM noted that the Foreign Affairs Ministry and the ECOWAS parliament have failed to check Nigeria. He argued that this is enough evidence that all treaties and protocols under ECOWAS being ineffective.
“Nigeria has blatantly flouted ECOWAS protocol if there is even something like that. Surprisingly, the foreign affairs ministry has failed to deal with this issue, nobody is talking to this issue and for two months Ghanaian goods have been locked up in Nigeria. This act by the Nigerian government nullifies the entire ECOWAS Treaty on the free movement of people and goods,” he said.

The lady revealed she was walked out of the venue because of her medical condition as she has Neurofibromatosis, a genetic disorder of the nervous system. It mainly affects how nerve cells form and grow
Her post reads ;
Hello my beautiful people Please I need you to help me post these because I must be heard. My name is Okhimhe Grace I am a graduate of Auchi Polytechnic Auchi from the department of Science Laboratory Technology (SLT) With tears in my eyes i write this. I went for an interview on 23 July at a consulting firm called Kennedia consulting @Kennedia_ng at 14b Kingsley Emu street Lekki, i was waiting along side with others for the interview to kick off. While waiting the security man came to me, told me that he was asked to tell me to hand over my CV and leave the interview venue.
I asked him if I have done something wrong ? I told him that am also here for the interview like others and why am I the only one asked to leave? I did not have any quarrel or misunderstanding with anyone, I told him i want to speak to the person that told him to walk me out of the interview hall without me committing any offense for I was in my best behavior, he refused and said if i don’t’t want to drop my CV it’s my choice but i should leave. I told him I perceive the reason I am being asked to leave but no problem. I handed over my CV to him, when I was about leaving, I heard a man asking the security guy if I dropped my CV, he nodded and said yes.. i told the security guy I know why you asked me to leave , then I left.
I tried has much as possible to control myself with tears coming down my eyes while walking out of the compound filled with people that also came for the interview. I was humiliated and embarrassed On that day, I began to ask myself: What is the need of me going to school and graduating with a first class(distinction) when people out there discriminate and stigmatize people that are physical challenged? I am not physical challenged but people think I am.
I only have what is called NF(#Neurofibromatosis) Its a genetic disorder that causes tumor to grow on the skin. #NF is not contagious or communicable. That you feel someone is physical challenged is not a enough reason to walk them out of an interview, things are not done that way.I am very bitter and frustrated by that day experience. Because I have NF that is not a reason to walk me out of the interview, that not fair.

34-year-old Ifeoma Deborah Obi and her son, Chisimdi Victory Obi were burnt to death in the fire accident which occurred in Onitsha few weeks ago.
Both will be laid to rest on Friday November 15, in Awka-Etiti, Anambra State.
Reps to investigate Onitsha fire outbreak
The House of Representatives has resolved to mandate its committee on Emergency and Disaster Preparedness to investigate the immediate and remote causes of the recent fire outbreak in Onitsha, Anambra State.
This resolution followed a motion of urgent public importance moved by Okwudili Ezenwankwo and 2 others on Tuesday.
Moving the motion, Ezenwankwo said the fire outbreak, which was caused by petroleum tanker, claimed 6 lives as Federal Fire Service could not contain the inferno.
He noted that if the investigation is not done, then a future occurrence is possible.
Adding that National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) has failed to provide relief material to over 2,000 people turned homeless and 500 shops consumed by the inferno.
“The fire outbreak at Upper Iweka/Ochanja Market took the lives of at least six (6) persons and left many injured.
“Over thirty (30) vehicles, over fifty (50) houses (some with warehouses and street shops) and over five hundred (500) market lockup shops were razed by the fire incident.
“The fire outbreak of Upper Iweka/Ochanja Market has rendered over two thousand (2,000) hardworking people homeless, jobless and robbed them of their means of livelihood.
“Worried that after the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) rapid assessment of the incident, no feasible steps have been taken to ameliorate the hardship caused to the victims of this fire outbreak.
“If the immediate and remote causes of the fire incidents are not determined, a proper measure to forestall future fire outbreak might not be guaranteed,” he stated.
The House, therefore, resolved to “urge the Federal Government to order for immediate investigation of the cause of the fire incident.
“Call on the Federal Government to establish a Federal Fire Service Station In Onitsha, Anambra State.
“Call on National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) to send relief materials to the victims of Onitsha fire incidents.”
