Résumé Complet

Nigerian comedy icon Babatunde Omidina, known as Baba Suwe, was arrested on October 12, 2011, at Murtala Muhammed International Airport after a scanner suggested swallowed cocaine. Held for over three weeks with enforced evacuations yielding no drugs, a high court initially awarded him 25 million naira for rights violations, but appeals courts overturned it, leaving him uncompensated. The public humiliation fueled career stigma, health decline from diabetes complications, and his death in 2021 at age 63—now stirring fresh reflections online.

Point Clé

Baba Suwe endured weeks of humiliating detention at Lagos airport in 2011, watched closely as officials waited for drugs that never appeared. The ordeal shattered his health and Nollywood stardom forever.

Résumé Complet

Just weeks after Museveni's January 2026 election win for a seventh term, Otafiire declared openly, 'I do not support Kainerugaba as president' and 'Muhoozi will never rule this country. It's not family business.' The remarks from the NRM stalwart and bush war veteran spotlight growing succession tensions within the party, as Kainerugaba, the Chief of Defence Forces, faces both supporters hailing him as a fresh leader and critics questioning his fit. While backers like Hon Mwesigye Frank insist voters will decide, Otafiire's candor has fueled open rifts ahead of 2031 elections.

Point Clé

In a bold public stand, veteran minister Kahinda Otafiire made clear his respect for General Muhoozi Kainerugaba as President Museveni's son, but drew a firm line at him leading the country.

Résumé Complet

Coastal First Nations, formed around 2004 as the Great Bear Initiative Society, represents eight member First Nations focused on conservation and a sustainable economy in B.C.'s Central and North Coasts. Early grants came from U.S. foundations like the Rockefeller Brothers Fund, which supported blocking oil sands and pipelines, though recent funding is mostly from Canadian governments. Amid renewed Alberta-to-Kitimat pipeline discussions, the group opposes oil tankers due to spill risks, while Lilley argues media overstate its authority without proven aboriginal title. The tensions pit energy development against coastal protection, with member nations' rights requiring consultation.

Point Clé

Brian Lilley spotlights a Vancouver non-profit often quoted in energy project talks on Canada's West Coast. He notes its U.S. funding roots and lack of legal title over pipelines.

Résumé Complet

During a Nairobi press conference, Treasury Cabinet Secretary John Mbadi expressed shock that Ayomo, killed in chaos at a Kitengela 'Linda Mwananchi' rally on February 15, was Luo, then urged the community to stop protesting since 'there is no cause' anymore. Relatives clarified Ayomo was heading to fetch spare parts when police gunfire struck him below the left eye; his wife identified his body at the morgue, and his brother demanded justice from those meant to protect them. Critics accused Mbadi of tribalism and hypocrisy, while the Independent Policing Oversight Authority probes the incident amid calls for police accountability and party unity.

Point Clé

Vincent Ayomo, a 28-year-old mechanic and father, was shot while crossing the road for work parts—not even at the rally. His family's plea for justice hangs heavy amid the backlash.

On January 21, 2025, Kevin Daniel Sanabria-Ojeda and Alexander Moises Arnaez-Gutierrez allegedly abducted Velasquez from Burien, Washington, tortured her for cash and jewelry worth $20,000, shot her in the shoulder, and dumped her in rural Kittitas County. The men, one with probable ties to the violent Tren de Aragua gang, had lived at a Lake Oswego, Oregon house run by Uplifting Journey LLC as a state-certified addiction recovery facility that received over $2.3 million in Medicaid funds. Independent journalist Jeff Eager uncovered the facility's links to a $60 million Arizona Medicare fraud scheme, raising questions about oversight in Oregon's Medicaid system amid reports of drug activity and disturbances at the property.

Point Clé

Maria Guadalupe Hernandez Velasquez fought for her life after two men drilled her hand for her PIN, robbed her, shot her, and left her for dead on a Washington highway. She survived by playing dead and flagging down help.
