A Lagos State High Court Justice has granted the widow of the late Ikemba of Nnewi, Chukwuemeka Odimegwu Ojukwu, Bianca Ojukwu leave to re-open her evidence-in-chief, in the case she instituted against her husband’s family.
Justice Abdulfattah Lawal granted Mrs. Ojukwu leave as she had on behalf of her two under-aged children, Afamefuna and Nwachukwu (claimants) dragged Ojukwu Transport Limited (OTL) and seven others before the court over an alleged move by the family to eject her sons from the company’s properties located in Lagos.
Bianca wants the court to declare that her children are entitled to the possession and occupation of one of the properties in Ikoyi, Lagos until the harmonization of the management and administration of the assets of the first defendant (OTL).

SEE Change: Senate passes a law which legalizes sex with an 11 year old?



When I read the report online a few days ago, I didn't carry it because I didn't believe it. The report claimed that the Nigerian Senate had on Wednesday June 3rd passed a bill that approved prison terms for rapists and anyone who has sex with a child under 11 years old.

That means if the child is above 11, men can have sex with them and face no consequences? Still hard to believe. FFK just reacted to it on Twitter

20 years Jail sentence for Ivory Coast First Lady @BBCBreaking

Former Ivorian First Lady Mrs Simone Gbagbo has been sentenced to 20 years imprisonment by an Ivorian court for organizing post election violence after her husband, Laurent Gbagbo lost out in the 2010 Presidential elections in Ivory Coast. In a unanimous judgement today March 10th, the court said Mrs Gbagbo together with her husband's supporters, after rejecting the results from the elections that saw her husband's main rival, Alassane Ouattara declared winner of the election, carried out activities that undermined the state security which left over 3000 people dead.
Laurent Gbagbo's son from a previous marriage, Michel Gbagbo, was also sentenced to 5 years imprisonment for his role in the post election violence. Lawyers to Mrs Gbagbo say they would be appealing the judgement.
