December 29, 2022 Falz Writes Open Letter To Sanwo-Olu Over The Death Of Bolanle Raheem

Falz Writes Open Letter To Sanwo-Olu Over The Death Of Bolanle Raheem

Falz, a Nigerian rapper and human rights advocate, has addressed an open letter to Babajide Sanwo-Olu, the governor of Lagos State, about the passing of Bolanle Raheem, a lawyer from Lagos.

According to Inspiration FM, Bolanle Raheem was fatally shot on Christmas Day, December 25, 2022, by Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) Dambri Vandi, a police officer assigned to the Ajiwe Police Station in the Lekki-Ajah neighborhood of Lagos State.

Authorities at the state and federal levels have reacted to Bolanle's tragic death, pledging justice.

In response to Bolanle's murder, Falz used his Twitter account to write a message to Governor Sanwolu-Olu seeking justice and transparency.

The human rights advocate did not miss an opportunity to remind the governor of all that occurred during the EndSars demonstration in the state and how young people were labeled troublemakers for calling for improved governance and fair treatment for law enforcement officers.

The rapper warned and counseled the governor, saying that if the happy trigger police officer is not disciplined and the specifics of the legal processes are not made public, there would be an open invitation to mayhem.

He wrote: @jidesanwoolu @PoliceNG When we refused to leave the streets in October 2020, we were referred to as recalcitrant #EndSars youth that just wanted to make trouble. TWO YEARS after a panel made recommendations regarding those cases, they have still not been implemented..

Another man in police uniform took the life of a pregnant Bolanle Raheem on Christmas Day. If this person isn’t punished & all details PUBLISHED for everyone to see, I am afraid many will interpret that as an invitation to chaos. Humble advice.

 

November 22, 2022 I Am A Mythologist. I Don’t Need Religion – Soyinka

I Am A Mythologist. I Don’t Need Religion – Soyinka

Professor Wole Soyinka, a Nobel Laureate, has said that he has never felt the need for religion.

During the public presentation of his two-volume collection of writings, Soyinka, who characterized himself as a mythologist, also declared that he does not worship deities, although believing that they are artistically real.

He said;  “Do I really need one (religion)? I have never felt I needed one.

“I am a mythologist. I believe that people have a right and cannot help creating mythologies around themselves, around their experiences about what they project from the inner recesses of their minds as answers to questions.

“And so I find nothing wrong with utilizing mythologies as part and parcel of my creative warehouse.

“But religion? No, I don’t worship any deity. But I consider deities as creatively real and therefore my companions in my journey in both the real world and the imaginative world.”

October 27, 2022 Mexico Legalises Same-Sex Marriage

Mexico Legalises Same-Sex Marriage

The state of Tamaulipas was the latest in the predominantly Catholic country to authorize same-sex marriage, according to the local Congress on Wednesday.

The decision by the northern border state brings to a close a 12-year path toward national marriage equality, which began in 2010 when Mexico City became the first to celebrate same-sex partnerships.

Five years later, the Supreme Court ruled that a prohibition on same-sex marriage was unconstitutional, prompting modifications at the state level.

"The Tamaulipas Congress adopted changes to Article 132 of the Civil Code for the State to recognize the right to same-sex marriage," the institution stated in a statement.

“There are no first or second-class people, all people should enjoy this right,” said local congresswoman Nancy Ruiz of the conservative National Action Party (PAN), who promoted the reform.

This year, marriage equality has been authorized in seven additional states, three of which have passed in the previous two weeks.

Marriage equality is still undergoing "legislative harmonization" in five of Mexico's 32 states where it was created by court decisions or governors' decrees, according to political scientist and LGBTQ activist Genaro Lozano.

“But it is already a reality throughout Mexico. Thanks to all the activists and legislators who have supported it over the years,” Lozano tweeted.

September 12, 2022 5 Reasons You Should Consider Having A Court Wedding

5 Reasons You Should Consider Having A Court Wedding

You may have realized that an expensive wedding has several disadvantages, whereas there are numerous advantages to having a court marriage.

Here are a few lists of the top reasons why all couples should think about having a court wedding for their forthcoming weddings.

1. Court marriage is fast

Have you ever left a lengthy wedding ceremony thinking that it was great but that it could have been half the length and just as lovely? If lengthy ceremonies aren't your style, rest assured that courthouse marriages are quick and can be completed in within 30 minutes.

Unlike church or traditional weddings, there are no extensive lectures or music in courts, which keeps the events brief and removes a few additional items from your wedding planning list. Isn't that incredible?

With all of the time saved, you'll have more energy for your reception, when you'll celebrate your wedding day with your closest friends and family, rather than the formal part of the celebration.

2. Court weddings have no dress code.

When it comes to weddings, one of the most expensive and time-consuming decisions is what to wear! When you have your wedding at the court, you can wear something other than a white gown.

Because there are no rigorous dress standards, potential couples are free to wear whatever they like and everyone will be delighted. All colors, forms, and styles are possible ensembles, and you can even buy an outfit that you can wear again.

A more relaxed dress code not only allows you to show your personal style more fully, but it also allows you to choose a less expensive option!

3. You’ll have legal security

While being married is a lovely affair, it also has a serious element to it. A court wedding, like a licensed church or licensed office wedding, legally protects both the man and the woman, but primarily the lady. While you may go into marriage expecting the best, things do go wrong from time to time.

Having the legal stability of a court wedding may prove to be a lifeline if things don't go as planned. For example, being legally married shields you from the practice of bigamy, which is punishable by 5 years in prison. As a result, your partner must divorce before marrying someone else.

Note: Bigamy is when you marry someone else when you are still married to the person you married in court.

4. They conserve resources.

If an elaborate ceremony seems too much for your schedule or your budget, getting married in a courthouse could be one of the wisest financial decisions you'll ever make. A traditional wedding on a micro-scale costs roughly N200,000, whereas registering a marriage in court costs only N2,000. You'll have a lot more alternatives for keeping the event on a tight budget.

Even if you spend less money, you and your partner will still be legally referred to as 'Mr' and 'Mrs.'

5. Court ceremonies are less stressful.

One of the primary advantages of a court marriage is that it can be a small event. Planning a large wedding with a large guest list can be difficult at times, especially when you feel the need to satisfy everyone.

A court wedding requires only a few close family members and friends to attend, and after the registry procedure, you can head out for a short reception elsewhere.

Alternatively, you may spend the money saved on a large reception instead, or save it to help you start your new life together. By having a courthouse wedding, you can save yourself a lot of trouble!
