Rapper Speed Darlington has been rearrested by operatives of the Nigeria Police Force.

This comes two months after the rapper, whose real name is Darlington Okoye, was released from custody.

Recall that the rapper was arrested on October 4 following the release of a contentious video in which he allegedly defamed his colleague, Burna Boy, over his association with embattled American rapper Diddy.

He was, however, released on bail on October 9 after spending five days in detention.

The Senior Pastor of The Second Coming of Christ’s Ministry, Adewale Giwa, has advised pastors who married more than one wife before entering ministry to avoid divorcing.

Giwa emphasized that clergymen who had multiple wives before becoming ministers should remain committed to them, as there is no marriage in heaven.

Speaking during a press conference in his church in Akure, Ondo State, he said: “There is no place that we should restitute in the Bible, people are only capitalizing on the Old Testament when Jesus Christ said to his disciples, a certain woman married three husbands and they all di3d, so who should be the original husband of the woman when they get to heaven?

Jesus said in heaven there is nothing like marriage. So if you marry two wives before God calls you, you have to maintain that – You don’t send one packing to please the other because there is no marriage in heaven.

There is a popular Juju musician still alive married to more than two wives but God called him and he became an anointed pastor. He now made a move for restitution by sending the other wife away while retaining the first, he sent the second wife away while forgetting that the way God thinks is different from how man thinks.

Not long ago, the first wife di3d and he was forced to go and beg the woman he sent away to return back, as we speak the woman lives with him. This goes to tell you that there is no marriage in heaven.”

Wesley University’s overall best graduating student for the 2023/2024 academic session, 19-year-old Miss Ifeoluwa Mercy Adeyemi, has shared the secret to her academic success.

Speaking at the university’s 13th convocation ceremony in Ondo Town, Ondo State, Adeyemi, who earned a degree in Microbiology with an impressive 4.97 CGPA, revealed that she avoided having a boyfriend during her four-year course to stay focused and minimise distractions.

According to Vanguard, she said: “Well, I had actually discussed this matter with several other people, and they told me that it depends on your own perspective. But for me, I see it as a distraction because I cannot divide my mind. A boyfriend might be demanding my attention, which would prevent me from putting my total effort into my books.”

The Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) has returned 21 stolen vehicles worth billions of naira, reportedly smuggled from Canada.

The Comptroller General Bashir Adewale Adeniyi disclosed this during the handing over of the seized vehicles on Tuesday, November 26.

The stolen vehicles includes: three undeclared 2021 Toyota Highlanders, two of which were confirmed stolen from Canada.

Other high-value recoveries include: A Lamborghini Huracan and a Mercedes-AMG GT, valued at ₦630.8 million, intercepted in Lagos.

A Rolls-Royce valued at ₦231.8 million and a 2019 Lamborghini valued at ₦239.1 million, both recovered in Victoria Island.

Two Range Rovers (2023 and 2018 models), worth ₦267.1 million, intercepted in Lekki.

A Mercedes-Benz G550 and a Range Rover Sport, worth ₦506.8 million, seized along the Trinity Axis in Lagos, among others.

“Over the past several months, we have intensified our operations against vehicle trafficking syndicates operating within our borders.

According to INTERPOL reports, West Africa has emerged as a notable destination hub in the global stolen vehicle trade network, which extends from Europe and North America to as far as South America and Australia.

This challenge is particularly acute in Nigeria – National Bureau of Statistics data showed that between 2013-2015, only 54% of stolen vehicles were recovered, highlighting the scale and sophistication of this criminal enterprise.

The growing incidence of stolen vehicles finding their way into our region has become a matter of serious concern, as it not only undermines our legitimate automotive market but also strains our security infrastructure.

Beyond damaging our legitimate automotive trade sector and international business relationships, it undermines President Tinubu’s economic reform agenda that aims to position Nigeria as a trusted hub for international commerce,” the Comptroller General said.

The Acting Chief of Army Staff, Lt Gen Olufemi Oluyede, has appealed for a higher budgetary allocation for the Nigerian Army to fulfil its constitutional duties and provide adequate accommodation for soldiers.

Oluyede made this appeal during a condolence visit by the Senate Committee on Army, led by Senator Abdulaziz Musa Yar’Adua, on Monday in Abuja.

He noted that the army recruits about 15,000 personnel annually but lacks sufficient housing to accommodate them.

According to him, “I need to reiterate that Nigeria belongs to all of us, and without your support, it would be very difficult for us to secure Nigeria. So I want to appeal to you, the very eminent personality of Nigeria, to just please support us and make our job very easy so that we can help secure Nigeria as much as possible.

Well, over time, we’ve had situations where the resources that are attributed to the Nigerian Army keep dwindling. So, I think this is a very good forum for me to appeal that, maybe in considering next year’s budget, a few very important issues should be noted as it affects the Nigerian Army.

First, the Nigerian Army. For instance, in the last couple of years, we’ve been recruiting about 15,000 personnel. But I can tell you that not a single support has been given in terms of their accommodation. So, I can just imagine if, at some point, if we’re able to checkmate all the security challenges, where will those people retire to? It’s something that gives me sleepless nights.

So, I want to appeal to the National Assembly to please consider these very critical issues, as well as other combat enablers that can help us do our job better, especially in areas of technology, so that we can help secure Nigeria.”
