N2bn for International Trips In Presidency’s 2022 Budget – Trending With Ojy Okpe

The amount allocated to the presidency in the 2022 budget for personnel and overhead costs including meals and international trips has garnered mixed reactions on social media.

Meanwhile, a viral video showing some Madrasa students in Kwara State being brutally flogged by their senior colleagues, because they were said to have attended a birthday party and reportedly drank alcohol during the party, sparked outrage on social media.

Also, as October 11th narked International Day of the Girl Child, a new report by the Save the Children International revealed that gender inequality has continued to fuel child marriage, with an estimated 44 per cent of girls in Nigeria married before their 18th birthday, one of the highest rates of child marriage globally.
