Answering, Zozibini said leadership is the one thing every young girl needs to be taught.
In her words;
“It’s something that has been lacking in young girls and women for a very long time – not because we don’t want to, but because of what society has labelled women to be,” she said.
“I think we are the most powerful beings in the world, and that we should be given every opportunity.
“And that is what we should be teaching these young girls – to take up space.”

Ibrahim Mustapha, a fake medical doctor, has been jailed 54 years by a high court in Yola, Adamawa state capital, for operating with a forged medical certificate.
Mustapha was arrested by the Department of State Services (DSS) in June.
Bola Ilori, the state director of DSS, revealed that Mustapha started his fake practice as a ward attendant in Gombe state before he was employed in Adamawa.
He was employed as the principal medical officer at the cottage hospitals in Mayo Belwa and Fufore, and was reported to have carried out several surgical operations on many patients since 2015 — which left more than 15 of them reportedly dead.
Nathan Musa, the presiding judge, while delivering judgement, said the court considered Mustapha’s earlier plea of guilty.

“On count eight, I sentence him to three years imprisonment with the option of N50,000 fine.
“On counts four, five, six, seven and 10, I sentenced him to 10 years of prison term on each of the counts without the option of a fine.”
According to the judge, the sentence will run concurrently.

Femi Adesina, President Muhammdu Buhari’s special assistant on media and publicity, has said that many Nigerians are unbothered about the rearrest of Omoyele Sowore, convener of RevolutionNow movement.
The presidential spokesperson said this on Monday while appearing as a guest on Sunrise Daily, a Channels Television programme.
The rearrest of Sowore at a federal high court in Abuja last Friday barely 24 hours after he was released, ignited the anger of many Nigerians within and outside the country.
Reacting, however, Adesina said the rearrest Sowore within the court premises was “not a desecration of the temple of justice”, while he dismissed the viral video of the arrest as being stage-managed.
“It depends on what is real, what is the concocted story or what is the reality,” Adesina said.
“We have heard a concocted story with a concocted video or incomplete video and then the DSS has come out to give its own perspective and I think that then gives a fairly balanced texture.
“If you are fair-minded; you are balanced; you are neutral, I’m sure you will have a balanced perspective of what happened. So as far as I am concerned, if you ask my opinion, I think it was not a desecration of the temple of justice because the DSS has explained how things played out.
“I don’t particularly agree with you. When you say a lot of Nigerians …you know that all this noise is coming from less than 100 million Nigerians and the noise will be so loud that you think it is the whole country.

“It is a country of 198 million people. When just 100,000 are making noise in the social and traditional media, you would think the whole country is in an uproar. There are millions and millions of people who are not bothered.
“There are millions and millions of people who understand what the issues are. So, you can’t just say this is the opinion of a vocal minority and you then conclude that the country is in an uproar. That is not correct”
Speaking on the comments made by Femi Falana, counsel to Sowore, he said “Falana is not a neutral party, we know the side where he belongs to in this matter; therefore, his opinion will not count much. ”
“If you want a balanced perspective, you listen to him, you listen to the DSS and you can come to what a fairly balanced perspective should be. Mr Falana is an interested party, so I won’t take his words 100 percent.”

The Lagos state house of assembly has revealed its intended decision on the state’s pension law permitting former governors and other public office holders to receive pensions from state coffers.

The Lagos state house of assembly has revealed its intended decision on the state’s pension law permitting former governors and other public office holders to receive pensions from state coffers.
The Chairman, House Committee on information and strategy, Tunde Braimoh who made this known during an interview session said the Lagos assembly will not stop the pension of it past governors and deputy governors despite SERAP’s Plea on state’s pension law.
Naija News recalls that a federal high court in Lagos had directed Abubakar Malami, attorney-general of the federation, to challenge the legality of states’ pension laws permitting former governors and other ex-public officials to receive such pensions.
Braimoh, however, faulted the court ruling that ordered Malami to take immediate legal action towards the abolishment of state laws that permit “former governors to enjoy governors’ emoluments while drawing normal salaries and allowances in their new political offices.” He also said that as long as the law did not contravene the constitution, state assemblies had the right to make laws for the benefit of the society in which they operate.
The lawmaker said separation of powers as enshrined in the constitution empowers the legislature to make laws, the executive to implement and the judiciary to interpret the laws.
Braimoh said he was not aware of any law that restricted state assemblies from making laws for the provision of welfare package of former governors and public office holders.
Below are details of the pension of former governors of Lagos:
