Passersby intervened and begged the elderly man to let the officer go, but the embittered man turned deaf ears until other police officers intervened.
The policeman, on the other hand, said he’s not retaliating out of respect for the elderly man.

Ahead of the 2023 general election, Nigerian clergyman, Reverend Chris Okotie has asked Presidential candidates in the leading political parties in Nigeria to step down for him to succeed President Muhammadu Buhari.
Okotie, the founder of Household of God Church, made this request while speaking to newsmen at his church in Oregun, Ikeja, during his 63rd birthday celebration recently.
According to him, he is the right person to right the wrongs in the country and he has the perfect strategies to solve the problems Nigeria is facing.
Okotie said;
“I want to appeal to all presidential candidates to withdraw from the race and allow me to come in as the interim president. I want to implore Asiwaju to support my government for the betterment of the country and I also want to tell Obi that the system that introduced him cannot take him anywhere, because he cannot operate in the system we have now. All the presidential candidates should support me to succeed President Buhari as the interim president.
“We must also rise above tribe and religion because there is an imbalance in the country and we are not practising federalism instead, what we are practising is a presidential system of government. Since 1999, things have been declining because the presidential system of government we are practising has failed us.
“We must get rid of the National and State Assemblies because maintaining each member cost the country billions of naira. Some of the standing committees at both assemblies are not useful to the country, they are only representing themselves, not the populace.
“For the best of the country, both assemblies should be scrapped and the money for maintaining them should be used for something else. What we have in Nigeria today is the government of the party, by the party and for the party.
“Ministers and the Commissioners should also be expunged because Nigeria’s democracy has been hijacked by the elite for their interest and they are deceiving the downtrodden who don’t know anything. And the most important of all is our constitution. It should be changed to a people-oriented constitution, not the military one we have now. After the change, we can then restructure the country for the better.”
Speaking on his plans for the country, the controversial clergyman said,
“If I am made the interim president, our government will be a transparent one and we will redirect the steps of the youth who are into internet fraudsters and turned them to better persons in the society and empower them.
“While a young person with inclination to technology advancement will ensure financial accountability of government and each state will have control of their national resources. First, we emulated the British and now we are copying the American style of democracy that didn’t take us anywhere.
“The presidential system of government has failed us woefully. We should enable professional associations constitutionally to acquire legislative power as a replacement for the removal of the legislature from our political system.
“And we should also embrace the concept of aboriginal democracy, that is a government from the people, for the people and with the people. This is distinct from the current experience of political parties which is the government of the party, the party and for the party.
“My government will be that of National Reconciliation and Reconstruction. The interim government shall address aberrations and anomalies in the polity. I want to implore all Nigerians to join hands in the conversations that would enable a transition to an interim government at the end of President Buhari’s administration”.

A Twitter user who claimed to have witnessed the event between Burna Boy and a married lady at the Cubana club in Lagos has dispelled reports that the singer approached the married woman.
The Twitter user identified as King Kong in a series of Twitter threads titled “What Really Happened At Club Cubana” alleged that, contrary to claims that the singer sent his friends to call the lady’s attention, she had gone to meet the singer at his VVIP corner to get a picture with him.

“What Really Happened Club Cubana
The guy’s so called wife went to snap with Burna Boy in his VVIP top corner and instead of him to wait till she returns, he went there violently to drag her out, then he was resisted for his confrontational approach by Burna’s security
Immediately after things started escalating, Burna decided to leave with his people, but the same guys crying foul made advance to attack Burna, it was the that policemen attached to Burna, shot to disperse them, accidentally hitting two guys.
Burna throughout was just trying to avoid the situation, he was even laughing (like what the fvck is this), but this guys wanted more from the whole issue, and made his kind gesture taking selfie with a perceived fan escalate so quickly
The funny thing the media knows this, but decided to feed Nigerians with the story of Burna sending someone to call another person’s wife. Those that know Burna know he won’t stoop so low, when lot of single girls at the club were trying to take pics with him.”

In the viral clip, the man is seen coming out of the church after his wedding was called off, but quickly rushing back after he saw the enraged crowd at the exit.

An Abuja-based clergywoman, Pastor Sarah Moakwu, has spoken against the emergence of Muslims as the presidential candidates of the two major political parties in Nigeria.
This comes after former Lagos state governor, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, clinched the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential ticket and former Vice President of Nigeria, Abubakar Atiku, won the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential ticket.
Pastor Sarah while preaching to her congregation on Sunday, June 19, condemned the fact that both candidates are Muslims and called it a total disrespect to Christians.
She further averred that Christians will not condone it and would rather ‘waste’ their votes on a candidate from a party that lacks ‘structure’,
She said in part,
“That candidate that they said does not have structure, we are going to be structurelessly ….Structure has not helped us. Structure has taken a way power from us, structure does not have electricity, structure is killing people, structure has left us jobless, structure has killed us. So we will be structureless and we shall waste our votes”

Tinubu arrived Lagos for the first time since he secured the presidential ticket under the platform of the All Progressives Congress, APC, and was received by a tumultuous crowd and a long convoy.

A Nigerian Police Officer, Aliyu Giwa, has shared the story of a father who came to the station to report his son for beating him up and locking him out of his house.
Aliyu disclosed that the incident happened some years ago, and it was discovered that the father was cursed for always beating up his own father when he was younger.
“Let me share a story with you about an incident of a man & his son that transpired few years back.
Just like every other day at the Police station, this man walked into the station and met with the CRO (charge room officer) to lay a complaint.
His complaint was his son beat him up & locked him out of his own house. The house I built! He exclaimed. Before we knew it, he broke down in tears.
When I heard that, I was like “wow”! I had to move close to him while he was still talking to the CRO.After his Complaints and all.
I said to him, Baba how old is this your son? He said 28yrs. I was like what kind of generation is this? This shouldn’t be happening in our generation. But of course I had to calm baba down.
India mic mic (immediately) Policemen swung into action.
Baba’s son was invited and he surprisingly honored the invitation without hesitation. Although, his eyes were red & he was stinking of alcohol. The son was asked, what transpired between him and his father. His words were:
“My father refused to take care of me after my NYSC & refused to find me a job”
We had to pacify him so we could continue eliciting information from him. All of sudden the father started shouting in ibo dialect but unfortunately I didn’t understand what he was saying.
Omo! Baba just tried to slap his son & said “I blame ur mum” The guy shouted back at his dad and said the father was lucky they were in the Police station.Omo! I couldn’t believe the whole drama!
Long story short, the son was kept in our custody & baba went back home.
Btw, I didn’t mention that baba had just a wrap tied on him. Lol.
The next day baba’s elder brother came for the son’s bail. I said to Baba’s brother “sir you know what happened?” He said yes! So why do you want to take his bail or why are u here to be his surety?
He said my son don’t mind his father. Again I was astounded at his response. I then asked why again? In his response he said; “when we were growing up in the 60s his father (who’s my brother) was very stubborn, full of pride & had no regards for his elders.
Although our dad was a drunk after we lost our mum, my brother was in the village with my dad so he could take care of him. We began to receive loads of handwritten letters that my brother was in the habit of beating our dad to stupor & refused to take care of him.
In fact, the worst day of life was the day my brother beat my dad & I, and that was the day the elders in our village cursed him.
Further to the narration, I had to call baba on phone to let him know his elder brother is here to take the bail of his son.
I called baba and the following conversation ensued ; Me: good day sir Baba: my son how are u doing? Thanks for yesterday may God not you give that kind of son! Me: Amin ya’Allah! Me: sir, your elder brother is here to take your son’s bail.
Baba: He’s not my son! Will ask his mother if that’s my son! Subsequently he hung up and all efforts to reach him proved abortive as he refused to pick my calls afterwards.
A U.K based Nigerian lady has a strong message for those planning to relocate to the European country in search of greener pastures.
This comes amid the current rave to relocate abroad due to state of the nation ranging from insecurity to bad economic conditions, among other factors.
Speaking in a video shared on TikTok, the young lady said she would not advise Nigerians not to relocate to the UK but they should prepare for depression.
According to her, they should prepare to be depressed at least 5 times a week, have constant battles with mental health issues and emotional stress.
She asserted that the definition of being strong in Nigeria is a sharp contrast from what is obtainable in the U.K so they should prepare their minds for the worse.
Watch her speak below,
The video has sparked mixed reactions from social media users, especially Nigerians preparing to relocate from Nigeria.

However, some Nigerians based in the U.K expressed agreement with her and explained why Nigerian migrants tend to get depressed after relocating abroad.
@akingbade_belinda wrote,
“She just said it in a subtle and very funny way, but it’s no joke. Relocating to the UK without any close friends or family around. Relocating with no money but enough debt that you acquired when coming to pay for school. Relocating and starting a job you never imagined yourself doing. That is if you are lucky enough to earn money to sort all of this. While struggling to keep your head above water and thinking of how to renew your visa after its expiration, depression will set in. Better prepare yourself and determine that no matter what you will succeed. It’s a land of opportunity, but money don’t get picked on the floor”

Just be mentally ready that’s all this girl is saying y’all should stop bashing her.”
Nigerian model, Symba has seemingly blamed the married woman whose husband was shot at a club after she refused Burna Boy’s advances for the attack.
The American-based woman who was in a Nigeria for a friend’s wedding, took to social media to narrate what transpired on the night of the incident.
She said she went to have fun with her husband and other friends at a popular club in Lagos when Burna Boy sent someone from his team to solicit her attention, which she declined three times in a row.
However, following a third altercation with her friends, a brawl broke out, and Burna Boy allegedly gave the signal for the shooting.
“We were visiting Nigeria from America and London for our childhood friends wedding on the 8th of June 2022, @burnaboygram and his friends opened fire at us in Cubanalagos. My partner and his friend were shot, with both needing urgent medical care. A bullet grazed my partners head and our friend was shot in the thigh, leaving him hospitalized and needing an emergency surgery in Nigeria.” She wrote in part.
Reacting to the married lady’s narration, Symba pointed accusing fingers at her for the attack and stated that it’s likely she gave Burna Boy the impression that she was interested in him with her face and body signals.
The curvaceous model stated that the signals possibly propelled the singer to send someone to solicit her attention.
According to her, the messy incident wouldn’t have occurred if the married woman didn’t give the singer signals in the first place.
Read as she wrote below,
“I feel sorry for all the victims involved but let’s keep it 100 percent official. I would put my last dollar and say that the young lady in question at one point before the altercation might have locked eyes with Burna because it’s just normal for people in a club once a celebrity comes in to stare in their direction. I believe eyes locked and in her head she KNEW for sure there was no way she would interact with BURNA because she was there with her partner but I don’t think that stopped her from constantly staring (maybe even seductively) in that direction or using body language to convey some sort of attraction. That’s what women do especially FANS. That probably kept happening cause it is flattering to know that someone who you are a fan of is showing some sort of interest in you. That then lead to someone coming to her to ask for her to join the table. However if she didn’t engage in that back and forth to begin with this probably wouldn’t have happened. As a female we do things to fill our egos that sometimes leads us to places that wouldn’t imagine it would get to. Now I could be 100 percent incorrect but I HIGHLY DOUBT IT.”
The chairman of the Cubana group, Obi Cubana, has broken his silence on the incident involving Nigerian superstar singer Burna Boy and a married woman at his club.
This comes after the married lady who was allegedly assaulted by Burna Boy at the Cubana club in Lagos shared her side of the story.
It would be recalled that Burna Boy’s escort is alleged to have shot and wounded two guests at the club in the early hours of Wednesday, June 8, 2022.
According to reports, the singer was in the VIP section of the club with three women when he spotted the married lady. He was said to have told one of his escorts to invite her to join him.
The lady’s husband, who was by her side, was said to have slammed the singer, insisting that it was disrespectful for Burna to make advances on his wife.
A fight broke out and Burna is said to have given his escort a signal to shoot.
However, after the lady shared her side of the story, there was an outpouring of rage, with many demanding that justice be served.
In response to the uproar, Obi Cubana stated that his company has handed over all information at its disposal to the authorities. He also expressed his “complete sympathy” to “any/all people who may have been affected by this.”
“As Regards the issues making rounds the social media, we at Cubana Group have given all information at our disposal to the legal authorities. However, we wholeheartedly sympathise with any/all those who may have been impacted by this. Myself and our our group would never compromise standards, as we have confidence in the authorities to handle all. Best Regards”. He wrote on Instagram.

In her words,
“I decided to leave the sound on so I can feel and hear your voice once more, your passing shook my entire life, changed my entire perception about life, I couldn’t believe it happened
I miss you so much, I know you would have disowned me 1mX by now and still loved me 1mX more because you know where I carry the coconut head from. Although this Father’s Day would’ve been Billings day but right now I’ll choose Billings over you not being here

MAVINS singer, Magixx (Real name Adelabu Alexander) is currently trending on social media platform, Twitter because of a now-deleted Tweet he’d shared about Chris Brown’s latest song that featured Wizkid.
“The new Chris brown and Wiz is stupid,” he wrote
The song which is currently Number 2 in Apple Music “TOP 100 Nigeria” was given a new taste with the addition of a sax accompaniment with Chris Brown and Wizkid performing for the women.
DJ Tunez was in charge of music production, and he did an excellent job. Similarly, “Call Me Everyday” is on Chris Brown’s new album, “Breezy.”
Magixx’ tweet riled up many netizens especially those under the faction of “WIZKID FC” and they went for his jugular.
While some other reasonable Nigerians gave the up-and-coming singer a benefit of doubt as they explained that he could have used the “STUPID” as a compliment but others weren’t having it as they averred that his tweet was disrespectful.
Magixx then decided to clear the air by educating the trolls what he really meant when he made the tweet.
