Even though she had for decades lived a life characterized by selfless service to humanity undoubtedly beneficial to those who had approached her for support and those she had by herself suspected to be needy, the humongous palliative care provided by this super generous woman of substance with a view to increasing the quality of life of thousands of individuals(poor & rich, old young) across and outside Lagos state is specially remarkable and will surely remain indelible in our minds as her Lagos residence and neighborhood suddenly became a Mecca to a daily magnitude of thronging seekers of her palliative clemency which she has been freely offering right from the first day of the Covid-19 lockdown in Nigeria.

“This benevolence of Princess Toyin Kolade and many more virtuous attributes of her person as abovelisted will always get her rewarded by God, make her loved by the people, keep her respectable in the society and find her worthy to be celebrated all the days of her life and special days like today being her birthday anniversary.

“We celebrate this loving wife of our own Prince Kayode Kolade, we wish her a happy birthday and we pray the Almighty Olodumare shall richly characterize her new age and the rest of her journey on this earth with continued good health, longevity of life and increased prosperity as she’s gloriously a year older today.

Free at Last: Burkina Faso Releases 11 Nigerian Soldiers, Aircraft

Burkina Faso has released Nigerian soldiers who were detained after their aircraft made a forced landing in the Sahelian country earlier this month, Nigerian officials said.

The release followed a diplomatic intervention by President Bola Tinubu, who dispatched a high-level delegation led by the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Yusuf Tuggar, to meet Burkina Faso’s Military Leader, Ibrahim Traoré, on Wednesday.

In a statement, Alkasim Abdulkadir, Tuggar’s spokesperson, said both sides resolved the matter amicably and secured the release of the Nigerian Air Force pilots and crew.

The soldiers had been held for nearly two weeks after the Confederation of Sahel States (AES) described the aircraft’s landing as an “unfriendly act” carried out in defiance of international law.

The Nigerian Air Force, however, said the crew encountered a technical issue that required a precautionary landing in Bobo-Dioulasso, the nearest available airfield. It said the landing complied with standard safety procedures and international aviation protocols.
