Chioma Adeleke, the wife of Nigerian music superstar Davido, has openly expressed her desire to expand their family. During a heartfelt Father’s Day celebration on Sunday, the celebrity chef used the moment to share her longing for more children with her husband, sparking conversation across social media platforms. In a widely shared video from their dinner outing, Chioma is heard saying affectionately: “Happy Father’s Day. We love you, daddy. I want two more kids. I love you. Happy Father’s Day.” This sweet confession comes just a few weeks after Davido, in an April interview, stated that he and Chioma were putting a pause on childbearing. The singer, who is now a father of five, explained that while he loves being a dad, they have decided not to have more kids for now. According to him, Chioma needs time to focus on her career and deserves a well-earned break after already having three children. It will be recalled that in 2023, the couple welcomed a set of twins, a boy and a girl, following the tragic loss of their first son, Ifeanyi, who sadly passed away in a drowning incident in 2022.
Nigerian socialite and crossdresser, Okuneye Idris Olanrewaju, better known as Bobrisky, has openly criticized members of the Nigerian Senate for their perceived indifference toward the ongoing violence and killings in Benue State. Taking to his Instagram story on Monday, Bobrisky expressed disappointment, comparing the swift legislative attention his legal issues received to the silence surrounding the tragic events in Benue. “Senators and House of Representatives didn’t summon an emergency meeting concerning the killings happening in Benue,” Bobrisky lamented. “But they quickly gathered when it was about Bobrisky. Disgraceful! What a shameful country.” The controversial figure faced legal proceedings in 2024 after being charged by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) for the misuse of the Nigerian currency, the naira. Although found guilty, later reports indicated that Bobrisky did not serve any prison sentence following the court ruling, sparking public criticism and debate over the country’s justice system and selective governance.

Nigerians gotta chill out, you come for the mother of my child and think I won’t back it? Don’t come on my page talking shit and cry when I speak. I NEVER signed the Contract. I will always say what I want and do what is right for me or my family. I haven’t said shit yet everyone gotta chill.”

Renowned football journalist Fabrizio Romano has delivered a fresh insight into the potential summer transfer of Napoli striker Victor Osimhen, who is attracting attention from several major clubs. Osimhen, who recently concluded a season-long loan spell at Galatasaray, is currently undecided about where he’ll continue his career. The Nigerian international, aged 26, is currently enjoying his off-season vacation in Nigeria, while his permanent exit from Napoli appears imminent in the current transfer window. In a recent update shared via his YouTube channel, Romano disclosed that Victor Osimhen has multiple options for his next club destination. According to Romano, several clubs are in the race, including Al Hilal, Galatasaray, multiple English Premier League sides, and Serie A’s Juventus. “Al Hilal remain persistent in their pursuit of Victor Osimhen,” Romano explained. “They strongly believe that their financial package outshines offers from any other suitors, which is why they’re planning a renewed approach to land the Nigerian star, despite him previously declining their offer to represent them in the FIFA Club World Cup.” He added that the Saudi Arabian club already has a near-complete agreement with Napoli, and they’re determined to finalize terms with the player directly. Meanwhile, Galatasaray are still in the mix, and some Premier League clubs are closely monitoring developments. Additionally, Juventus have made another inquiry regarding the striker. “There are various potential moves on the table for Victor Osimhen,” Romano concluded.

Pastor Chris Oyakhilome DSc DSc DD And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness (Acts 4:31). Often, we say God’s Spirit is God’s answer and many don’t understand it. When we pray, God answers, and His answer is the Spirit. For example, in Acts chapter 4, following the healing of the lame man in chapter 3, the Jewish leaders were enraged against the apostles. They commanded Peter and John not to preach or teach in the Name of Jesus. But the apostles stood their ground, declaring, “For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard” (Acts 4:20). After further threats, the authorities found no basis to punish them and let them go. The Bible says in Acts 4:23, “And being let go, they went to their own company….” By this time, many had already received salvation, and the Christians gathered together in unity. When they heard what had happened, they lifted their voices in prayer to God. Their prayer was fervent. They acknowledged God’s sovereignty and asked, “And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto thy servants, that with all boldness they may speak thy word” (Acts 4:29). God’s response was beyond their expectations. Our opening verse says, “And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness.” God’s answer was the Spirit! He filled them with the Spirit and the result was them speaking the Word with boldness, healing the sick and casting out devils. In verse 33, we’re specifically told, “And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all.” Blessed be God! The disciples prayed for boldness and God filled them with His Spirit. The answer wasn’t just a change in their situation but the impartation of the Spirit who enabled them to proclaim the Word with great power. This is what happens every time we pray; the Spirit is the answer. He fills us, strengthens us and empowers us to accomplish His will. Hallelujah! ConfessionI’m filled with the Spirit, empowered to speak the Word with boldness and to manifest the glory of God everywhere. I walk in the consciousness of God’s divine presence, knowing that through the Spirit, I have everything I need to fulfil my purpose, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

The Benue State Police Command has claimed that the group of protesting youths in Makurdi on Sunday allegedly tried to confront the Deputy Governor of the state, Barrister John Ode, during a tense demonstration that followed a deadly massacre. LMSINT MEDIA confirmed that hundreds of concerned young residents flooded the streets of Makurdi to protest the unending wave of killings attributed to armed Fulani herders, which have ravaged many communities across Benue State. The protest was sparked by the horrifying massacre in Yelewata, a community in the Guma Local Government Area, where approximately 250 people reportedly lost their lives in an overnight attack. During the demonstration at Wurukum Roundabout, police officers deployed tear gas in an attempt to disperse the enraged crowd. Scenes from the protest showed a heavy security presence using crowd control tactics to manage the situation. Providing more insight into the events, the Benue State Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Udeme Edet, explained that the Deputy Governor had approached the gathering with the intention of speaking to the youth.

During the 1st Abia NUJ Agric Show 2025 held at the Police Officers Mess, Umuahia, Commandant Akinsola Aderemi emphasized the agency’s ongoing role in maintaining peace in rural farming communities.

The Nigeria Police Force has confirmed the arrest of 14 individuals linked to a protest that occurred on Sunday in Makurdi, the capital city of Benue State. Authorities explained that the demonstration, which initially started at the Wurukum Roundabout, was aimed at raising concerns over the increasing rate of insecurity across the state. However, the protest was reportedly taken over by miscreants who attempted to cause unrest and disrupt public order. According to the Benue State Police Command, tensions escalated when the protesters refused to listen to an appeal from the Deputy Governor, Barr. John Ode, and the Commissioner of Police, CP Ifeanyi Emenari, who had arrived at the location to address the crowd and plead for calm. A press release from DSP Udeme Edet, the spokesperson of the Command, revealed that officers were compelled to use non-lethal methods to manage the chaos. These included water cannons and smoke dispersal units, which helped neutralize the aggressive faction of the protest while ensuring the safe evacuation of the Deputy Governor. “No injuries or fatalities were reported throughout the police intervention,” the official statement confirmed. Later the same day, a separate act of violence was reported at Apir, a community on the outskirts of Makurdi. Alleged supporters of the earlier protest reportedly blocked a major road, intercepted a truck, and set it ablaze while the driver was still inside. The identity of the truck driver has not been established at the time of this report. Police confirmed that a total of 14 individuals were apprehended in relation to these violent episodes and will be formally charged. Investigations are still ongoing to identify additional perpetrators involved in the arson and disruption.

Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun State has declared that any radio station operating in the state and found violating the national broadcasting code will face serious penalties. He emphasized that individuals responsible for inciting unrest or promoting violence within the state will be apprehended and prosecuted by the appropriate law enforcement agencies. The warning was made public through a press statement issued in Osogbo on Sunday by the governor’s spokesperson, Olawale Rasheed. The statement explained that the action was prompted by rising concerns regarding inciting remarks and continual disregard for broadcast regulations by certain radio stations. In Rasheed’s words, “Some stations have given airtime to guests who make provocative remarks capable of inciting public disorder. These same stations also deny fair hearing to those affected, thereby breaching professional and ethical broadcasting practices.” He further described these actions as not only unethical but also as serious threats to the peace and stability of Osun State. In response, Governor Adeleke has instructed the Commissioner for Information to immediately summon the General Managers of the offending radio stations. “This meeting will serve as a preliminary step before more severe actions are implemented if such infractions continue. While freedom of the press is a constitutional right, it must be exercised with a strong sense of responsibility and adherence to ethical standards,” the statement read. The governor also issued a stern warning to opposition political figures, urging them not to stir violence in reaction to the recent Appeal Court ruling. He accused them of making inflammatory public remarks intended to undermine law and order, stressing that such behavior will not be tolerated. “Anyone caught inciting unrest will be dealt with decisively by law enforcement agencies,” Adeleke reiterated. In another development, the Osun State Police Command has confirmed the deployment of officers across local government secretariats throughout the state. According to LMSINT MEDIA investigations, this security arrangement was initiated to prevent any form of violence or chaos following the Appeal Court ruling from the Akure Division on Thursday, June 12, 2025. Further reports revealed that tensions are escalating in Osun as both the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) local government executives claim authority over council areas in the aftermath of the appellate court’s verdict. Confirming the security deployment, the Police Public Relations Officer, Abiodun Ojelabi, stated, “Our duty is to maintain law and order, not to get involved in political matters. We’ve put all necessary security measures in place. We encourage Osun residents to go about their lawful activities without fear.”

The Zone A Peoples’ Assembly (ZAPA) has issued a strong appeal to Benue State Governor, Rev. Fr. Hyacinth Alia, urging him to declare a state of emergency on security in response to the escalating violence and widespread displacement currently plaguing many communities. During a press briefing held in Makurdi on Sunday, ZAPA President Fanen Mondo described the ongoing attacks as a series of “coordinated and deadly strikes” allegedly perpetrated by armed herders, including some he believes to be foreign mercenaries. The affected areas include Chito in Ukum, Tor Donga in Katsina-Ala, Turan in Kwande, Aôndoana in Gwer West, Yelwata in Guma, Apa, and Agatu. Mondo emphasized that Governor Alia should not merely declare the emergency, but also personally lead the state’s security interventions while actively engaging the Federal Government to combat the deteriorating situation. “What links all these places is not just the carnage but the deafening silence — a silence from those who should be speaking out and taking action,” Mondo said. He denounced what he called political indifference by state leaders, noting that silence in the face of such attacks could be seen as tacit complicity. “Remaining silent isn’t being neutral — it’s being complicit. And the citizens of Benue understand that clearly,” Mondo asserted. The ZAPA president also called on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to acknowledge the support given to him by the Benue people during the 2023 general elections and take swift action. He advocated for the deployment of military personnel to the affected areas and the provision of emergency relief for displaced residents. “Benue does not need a quiet leader; we need a proactive field commander who will rise to defend our ancestral lands,” Mondo concluded.
