Nollywood actress and comedian Wofai Fada has proceeded with her wedding to Taiwo Cole in a traditional ceremony, despite her in-laws' disapproval.

After announcing her impending marriage to Taiwo Cole on social media, accompanied by photos flaunting her engagement ring, Fada's in-laws issued a disclaimer rejecting the union.

In the statement, they emphasized their lack of awareness or permission regarding their son's marriage to Wofai Fada, urging the public to disregard any wedding-related publications.

Nevertheless, Fada and Cole went ahead with their traditional wedding, donning Ugep Cultural attire from Cross River, as captured in circulating photos and videos.

Despite the controversy, Fada appeared radiant and joyful as she celebrated her union with the love of her life.

Four months after the Yuletide season attacks, unknown gunmen resurfaced in Nde along the Ikom-Ogoja highway.

In the early hours of Sunday, April 28, 2024, around 6:15 a.m., villagers fled for their lives as gunshots rang out from the unknown gunmen, who were firing randomly along the Ikom-Ogoja highway near Nde. This gunfire lasted about 15 minutes before the attackers fled. Commuters were forced to stop some distance away from the gunfire, seeking safety. This incident marked the first occurrence since the December 2023 attacks, which resulted in three deaths and ten kidnappings, with the captives released after ransoms were paid. The youths of Nde, together with security forces, launched a search for the assailants but were unsuccessful.

However, at about 3:30 p.m. the same day, the gunmen resurfaced, this time shooting at three commuters, killing one and injuring the other two. The military, police, and local vigilante groups are now on the hunt for these unknown gunmen/kidnappers.

One of the problems of road transportation in Nigeria is bad roads.

This is Nde, along the Ikom/Ogoja highway this afternoon. The bad spot on this axis is getting worse by the day..

Commuters are advised to seek alternative route or be ready to spend more time when you get to the bad spot
