Benue Gov Suspends Aide Arrested For Alleged Sextortion

Hyacinth Alia, the governor of Benue State, has suspended Mkor Aondona, his Special Adviser on Documentation, Research, and Planning, after she was detained by EFCC, SEC, and sextorted for allegedly extorting, cyberbullying, and blackmail.

The governor claimed that Tersoo Kula, his spokesman, had declared the suspension to be unconstitutional on Sunday.

The governor argued that the governor’s decision was one of upholding public service integrity, discipline, and accountability.

He claimed that any member of his administration who found themselves ineligible in matters of criminality or ethical misconduct would face legal sanction.

The Governor makes it clear that his administration will not tolerate any act that discredits or undermines public trust while assuring the public that the law will continue in its entirety without interference or bias.

Aondona is also alleged to have been involved in blackmail, sending explicit videos of the girls that were allegedly hacked into without their knowledge or consent via various messaging services. Some of the videos are said to be available.

Kevin Durant, a two-time NBA champion, will leave the Phoenix Suns for the Houston Rockets in a major move.

The 36-year-old forward will sign with the Rockets in a one-year contract with eight other players starting in July.

According to reports in US media, guard Jalen Green and small forward Dillon Brooks will move to Phoenix in exchange for the 10th overall pick in the NBA Draft and five additional second-round picks.

Being a member of the Houston Rockets, I’m looking forward to it, Durant said to reporter Kay Adams at a media event in New York on Sunday.

I’ve been watching it for a while, and I’m glad it’s over.

Durant won four Olympic medals with the United States and was named the NBA’s Most Valuable Player in 2014.

With Durant averaging 26.6 points, 6 rebounds, 4.2% assists, and 1.2 blocked shots per game, the Suns only managed to finish 11th overall.

The Rockets placed second in the Western Conference, but the first round knocked them out of the play-offs.

Ime Udoka, who signed a long-term contract with Houston last week, will lead them in the coaching position. Prior to joining the US Olympic squad and the Brooklyn Nets, Durant and Udoka had a working relationship.

Sting’s support act suffers cardiac arrest live on stage in Liverpool as festival halted

A band member collapsed during a live performance and was given what was described as a cardiac arrest. The Christians at Liverpool’s Pier Head abruptly stopped their performance.

As the incident progressed, lead singer Garry Christian requested immediate medical attention, prompting the stage crew to install a privacy screen. The performer was treated before being taken away in an ambulance by emergency responders who quickly arrived.

Emma Bridget, a woman allegedly working for the band, delivered an emotional update to the stunned crowd:
We’re really hoping he’ll make it, he says. He apparently has a pulse right now, despite not having one. I appreciate you so much.

“We’re so devastated but thank you so much because Garry loves Liverpool and he wanted to put on the show of his life.”

Following the incident, fans were given the messages “We appreciate your patience and understanding.” The performer is being treated by medical personnel, and we’ll keep you informed as soon as possible” (Liverpool Echo).

As the situation developed, the crowd, which was in the thousands, remained quiet and concerned. No further information was provided regarding the performer’s current state.

The 2025 On the Waterfront festival’s final night will be held on Sunday. Since Thursday, thousands have flocked to the city’s waterfront to see a large number of musicians, and the festival has been taking place there.

Sting is scheduled to play the concert’s final night. As part of his STING 3.0 World Tour, the Grammy-winning artist is making his long-awaited return to the city.

The Christians, a Liverpool-born band, sold the most albums on Island Records and received international chart success in the late 1980s and early 1990s.

The band’s name was derived from the first three brothers in the lineup, which is fitting given that Henry Priestman’s middle name also appears in the band’s name.

Fans took to X to share the shocking news

Garry Christian (lead vocals), Roger Christian (vocals and instrumentalist), Russell Christian (keyboards, saxophone, vocals), and Henry Priestman (keyboards, guitars, vocals) founded The Christians in 1985. By accident, Princesman and I, despite not being a relative, shared the Christian name. Paul Barlow and Mike Bulger also played bass, Tony Jones, and Mike Bulger, who also played drums in the early days.

In 1987, Roger Christian left the band and instead concentrated on releasing a solo album. In 1998, he battled a brain tumor, and later passed away.

Stephanie Davis ‘in shock’ as she confirms split from boyfriend just months after giving birth

Stephanie Davis, a pop star, has revealed her shock, destruction, and heartbreak over the fact that Joe McKalroy and her relationship ended just after the couple had welcomed a child.

After weeks of rumors about their romance, Stephanie Davis has confirmed her breakup with her boyfriend. The 32-year-old soap star and partner Joe, who she has been dating since 2022, have a 5-month-old son named Samuel.

But rumours emerged last weekend that their romance was over after Stephanie shared a message about Father’s Day that noticeably made no mention of the father of her son. Further comments from the Hollyoaks star fuelled further speculation that the relationship was over.

Stephanie confirmed on Sunday on social media that her relationship with Joe was over and that she was facing a solo-parenting race. What caused the once vibrant romance to sag in detail was not disclosed by her.

In an Instagram Stories post, she wrote: “Never in a million years did I think I’d be writing this. I’ve been left with no choice but to address the rumours.”

She continued, “This has come as a complete shock and has been incredibly painful and unexpected.” I’ve opened this chapter on my own just four months after having a baby, which is one of the most heartfelt and vulnerable times in a woman’s life.

She continued, “I truly believed I’d finally found my happiness – something secure and lasting,” referencing her previously troubled romance with reality star Jeremy McConnell, with whom she shared a seven-year-old son. But that hasn’t been the case, which is heartrending.”

Stephanie continued, “I’m grateful for the years we spent together because I wouldn’t have my Samuel.” Who will always be my top priority?

She said, “At this time, I’m focusing on healing, keeping my peace, and doing everything I can to support my two beautiful boys.” Thank you to those who reached out, because I can’t say enough about how much you’ve helped.

Her update came shortly after she had previously posted a post on social media that didn’t mention Joe and marked Samuel’s five-month anniversary.

Stephanie Davis’ confirmation that she split from her boyfriend just months after giving birth shocks her.

She wrote, to the surprise of fans: “This Day 5 months ago you came into this world. Only 5 months old today ( I know he’s still a tiny baby). It’s crazy to think he’s not been out in this world as long as he was in my tummy.”

The message went on: “From nearly losing you in the beginning, the worst pregnancy, C.Diff, I couldn’t walk with pelivic girdle trapped in the house for months & months, a terrible birth, then lifting doing every night feed lifting after a C-section , then your breathing eppsiodes which was the scariest time of my life, it’s been a long hard traumatic road.

But “Your brother and I will always be here every day for you, cheering you on,” “But here you are prospering my rainbow… my world.”

She continued, “I’m so fortunate to have you grow every day by your side into the most beautiful little boy. I’m so sorry that I don’t have many photos of me and that no one else has, but I’ll keep trying to get more. My top priority will always be you. I adore you, sweetheart.

Why Alcaraz is ‘red-hot favourite’ for third Wimbledon title

Images courtesy of Getty

Carlos Alcaraz arrived in London with “no expectations,” but with only eight days to go until Wimbledon, he has sent a ominous message to his rivals as he fights for a third successive title.

The world number two defeated Jiri Lehecka in the Queen’s final, extending his winning streak, which is the longest of his career, to 18 matches, to claim the title for the second time.

The Spaniard claimed “grass-court mode is activated” after winning Roberto Bautista Agut in the semi-final on Saturday.

He wasn’t telling lies.

Novak Djokovic of Serbia is the only active player with more titles on the surface than Alcaraz, as a result of this fourth grass-court title.

Alcaraz said, “I came here with no expectations.”

“I just came here with the intention to play two, three games, feel great on the grass moving, and give myself some feedback on what I need to improve.”

However, I quickly adapted to the grass, and I’m proud of it. I’m not talking about winning the trophy or making the final, but I did it.

Alcaraz lost to Holger Rune in the Barcelona Open final in April, winning five straight ATP finals and winning four titles.

Alcaraz’s victory is a positive sign. In 2023, he won the title, and he won at Wimbledon.

Only eight men completed that double in the Open summer.

Former Wimbledon champion Pat Cash said on BBC Radio 5 Live, “You can’t really expect better form for him to enter Wimbledon because he’s obviously the player to beat.”

Alcaraz wants to achieve a rare summer double.

Alcaraz has won five Grand Slam titles in three different competitions, with the Australian Open as the only trophy that is out of his swollen trophy cabinet.

The 22-year-old won the US Open for the first time in 2022, earning his first Wimbledon title the following year.

In the same year, he won the French Open and Wimbledon, joining Rod Laver, Bjorn Borg, Rafael Nadal, Roger Federer, and Djokovic, with the same name and as one of just six men in the Open era.

Only two men, Nadal and Borg (1978, 1979, and 1980), have won the clay and grass-court Grand Slams twice in the same season.

Alcaraz won the French Open and Wimbledon, which was almost impossible in the past, but because the grass courts are much harder and have a higher bounce, Cash continued.

He has already won this title and the exhaustion to win a Grand Slam is “a huge effort.”

With a time of five and a half hours and 29 minutes, Alcaraz fought back from two sets down to defeat Jannik Sinner in the longest French Open final of the year.

Alcaraz looks to join another prestigious club before leaving for the All England Club.

Only three men have won at least three Wimbledon titles in a row during the Open era.

Between 1976 and 1980, Borg won five consecutive titles, with Pete Sampras winning three consecutively (1993-1995), before extending that success with four more titles in a row (1997).

When the Swiss dominated for five years from 2003 to 2007, Roger Federer was the most recent to do so.

Alcaraz has consistently won on grass courts, becoming the fifth active male player to win four or more titles, joining Djokovic (eight), Matteo Berrettini (four), Taylor Fritz (four), and Nicolas Mahut (four).

And he joins Feliciano Lopez and Nadal as the only other Spanish men to have won four grass-court matches.

What data are gathered from this quiz?

Has Sinner’s game been improved by Alcaraz?

Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz shake handsImages courtesy of Getty

Alcaraz has lost just five games in 2025, but four of those losses occurred in the first three months of the year.

Before March was over, Djokovic, Lehecka, Jack Draper, and David Goffin were all defeated by Rune, who is the only one to have done so.

Sinner’s absence from the circuit coincided with his defeats at Lehecka, Draper, and Goffin, and the Italian received a three-month ban for failing two doping tests.

Sinner made his return in May, just as Alcaraz had broken his 18-game winning streak.

Alcaraz appeared to improve after realizing that his rival was coming and defeated the Italian twice in the clay-court match, including the French Open final.

Breaks enabled Alcaraz to experience “joy back again.”

In 2025, Alcaraz has been able to strike the right balance between his and his work and his personal life.

Alcaraz called in a brief break in Cancun, Mexico to recharge after losing to Draper in the semi-finals of Indian Wells. He claimed that he was feeling “too much hate.”

After winning the French Open, he changed his decision to make a quick stop in Ibiza to get away from the ATP circuit’s constant demands.

Alcaraz said, “That was the key; to have five, six days off, not grabbing a racquet, not stepping on the court.”

I just started enjoying playing tennis again, taking my family there for a vacation, and competing once more.

Before Wimbledon, Alcaraz won’t be playing any other tournaments, so it won’t try to sneak in a quick vacation.

Instead, he wants to discover what London has to offer.

“I can’t go back home,” I said. Alcaraz continued, “I’m going to stay here in London and hope to enjoy it a little bit.”
