16 Trafficked Children Rescued By Plateau Govt

16 children were brought back to life after being trafficked from Bassa Local Government Area to Anambra State, according to the Plateau State government.

Caroline Dafur, the commissioner for women’s affairs and social development in Jos, claimed the children were trafficked from Plateau to Anambra State, noting that the suspect responsible for the crime had been detained.

Dafur referred to the rescue as a significant step in the fight against child trafficking and emphasized that the government is devoted to protecting the rights of the underprivileged.

She said, “This rescue is a triumph over trauma, resilience, and hope restored in a world where the innocence of childhood should be preserved.”

The commissioner urged the public to report suspicious activity and to remain vigilant.

Say something if you see something. We can put an end to Plateau State’s child trafficking, she continued.

Miriam Riti, the wife of the council chairman, stated that measures had been taken to ensure the children’s well-being, including medical checks, school enrollment, and monitoring through community leaders, when she received the children on behalf of the Bassa local government.

Mrs. Asabe Agidi, the mother of one of the rescued children, claimed she had been misled into believing that her child was living in a better place.

She said, “I’m happy to have my daughter back, and I’ll take care of her with what I have.”

Strictly star Thomas Skinner posts defiant message after affair and Covid loan scandals

Before his big day, Thomas Skinner shared a message to her social media followers that Amy Dowden and Thomas Skinner are scheduled to hit the Strictly Come Dancing dancefloor.

In response to his affair and Covid-load scandals, Thomas Skinner posted a defiant Instagram message shortly before a live performance.

The 34-year-old businessman and TV personality took to Instagram on Saturday morning, sharing a video of his pre-show workout as he geared up for week one of routines on Strictly Come Dancing. Alongside the clip, he wrote, “HAPPY SATURDAY!!! LIVE SHOW DAY!! TOUGH TIMES DON’T LAST BUT TOUGH PEOPLE DO!! LOVE YOU ALL. BOSH.”

The cheerful man began by saying, “Happy Saturday, you lovely people! ” while spotting dancing in his living room with his two daughters. I just finished working out and getting ready for tonight’s show.

He continued, “Listen, I can’t wait for tonight.” My tan is on me. After a doner kebab feast, I’ll look like Patrick Swayze. Remember, tough people endure tough times, not last. You must always put one foot in front of the other, and you must never give it because you are ten times stronger than you can ever imagine.

Skinner is set to take to the dance floor with professional partner Amy Dowden. The pair will be trying to impress the judges with a fiery Paso Doble to Battle Without Honor or Humanity by Hotei. In recent weeks, the TV star admitted to a fling shortly after marrying his wife Sinéad in 2022. Speaking openly about the affair, he called it the “biggest mistake” of his life.

Although Amy-Lucia O’Rourke, the owner of the beauty salon, later claimed it lasted three months, it was said that the relationship had lasted for about two weeks.

Since then, he has reacted to the public’s criticism and claimed that some people were trying to “cancel” him. I had a fling, I suppose, it was just that; it was the one, it was a mistake, and I woke up feeling absolutely terrible about it, he said.

He added that as a result of his years of development, he has been accused of being “public enemy number one.” The allegations, lies, and death threats are all exaggerated.

He continued, “I have a very chequered past… more than most.” Never have I avoided that. If you dig, you’ll find more because I’ve made mistakes. The truth is that most people have made errors.

He claims that despite the scandal, his marriage has survived the conflict. He revealed Sinéad forgave him, claiming Sinéad had every right to leave but had made up her mind. He remarked, “She’s the best thing that’s ever happened to me.” Since the birth of twins, the couple has since made a “fresh start,” according to Skinner, who called it “fresh start.”

And earlier this week, the Mirror exclusively revealed one of Thomas Skinner’s firms has not paid back a £50,000 Covid bounce back loan – despite the star boasting about turning over “millions” during the pandemic.

After one business applied for a tax-payer-funded government loan in 2020, the star is the subject of fresh controversy over his company’s finances. Five years later, there is no evidence that Skinner, the Fluffy Pillow Company, has ever paid back the loan.

Alcaraz hails ‘best physio in world’ after victory

After overcoming concerns about an ankle injury to defeat Zizou Bergs in the second round of the Japan Open, Carlos Alcaraz declared that he had the “best physio in the world.”

The world’s number one had previously claimed he was “scared” after he slammed into awkward ground in his Thursday first-round defeat to Sebastian Baez.

The 22-year-old Spaniard looked unharmed as he won 6-4, 6-3 over unseeded Belgian Bergs to advance to the quarter-final with Brandon Nakashima in Tokyo.

Alcaraz, who won the US Open last month, said, “I could play, I would say, normally.”

“I was concerned about some court movements where I could feel my ankle,” but overall I think I had a great match.

I have the best physio in the world, who I can trust completely, and I think his work on the ankle is outstanding.

In another match, French qualifier Terence Atmane, age 23, defeated world number two Jannik Sinner 6-4, 5-7, 6-0 to reach the quarter-finals.

After twice leading by a break, the Italian, who lost to Alcaraz in the US Open final but has since won the Australian Open and Wimbledon this year, struggled in the second set.

In August, Atmane defeated Sinner in the semi-finals of the Cincinnati Masters, which he had one of the best runs of the season.

Denmark reports new drone sightings overnight at military sites

The most recent incursions near airports and critical infrastructure this week, which officials have called a “hybrid attack” and made hints about possible Russian involvement, are unidentified drones that have flown over Denmark’s military installations, including its largest base.

“The Danish Defense can confirm that drones were seen last night at several of the Danish Defence’s locations. An army spokesman said on Saturday that “many capabilities were deployed,” without specifying where the drones were spotted.

On Friday, police reported that “one to two drones” were observed close to and over the Karup military base in western Denmark, the country’s largest base, which houses all of the armed forces’ helicopters, airspace surveillance, flight schools, and support functions.

Police spokesman Simon Skelkjaer said he could not be reached for information on the origin of the drones and that “we didn’t take them down.”

No flights were canceled because none were scheduled at that time, according to Skelkjaer, but the Karup base shares runways with the Midtjylland civilian airport, which was briefly closed.

Copenhagen airport, the busiest airport in the Nordic region, was closed for several hours late on Monday due to mysterious drone observations made across the Nordic nation over the past week.

In the days that followed, five smaller airports, both for military and civilian use, temporarily closed.

In response to drone incursions into Polish and Romanian territory and Russian fighter jets’ invasion of Estonian airspace, which heightened tensions in light of Russia’s ongoing invasion of Ukraine, drone reports closed Oslo airport for several hours earlier in the week.

Mette Frederiksen, the prime minister of Denmark, said on Thursday that “dandanda has been the victim of hybrid attacks” in reference to unconventional warfare.

Danish Defence Minister Troels Lund Poulsen stated on Thursday that the flights appeared to be “the work of a professional actor,” though investigators have so far failed to identify those responsible.

Russia is the “main country that poses a threat to Europe’s security,” according to Frederiksen, who has pointed the finger at Russia.

Moscow “firmly rejects” any suggestion that it was involved in the Danish incidents, Moscow said on Thursday. Its embassy in Copenhagen described them as “a staged provocation” in a social media post.

The drone flights came just days after Denmark announced for the first time that it would acquire long-range precision weapons because Russia would “present a threat for years to come.”

A so-called “drone wall” was agreed to be a priority for the bloc on Friday by defense ministers from about 10 European Union nations.

Andrius Kubilius, the EU’s defense commissioner, said that Europe needs to quickly develop anti-drone defenses from Ukraine.

Kubilius stated in an interview that “we need to move quickly.” And we need to move, bringing Ukraine’s experience to bear, and creating a drone wall with Ukraine.
