It's good to have you join us this beautiful morning since he apologised for bringing the breakfast a little bit behind schedule and that's due to some circumstances beyond our control. However, it's good that we're here and we're rolling. As always, we start off with our top trending and first for us is that a minor has been or was arrested for insulting Governor Boni on social media. That's also gotten a lot of people on Nigerian's reacting. And it's a very dicey one because of the human rights issue, the issue of libel defamation and what-have-you. And here is a minor that's involved and, you know, the how. All of the arguments that we have is the process of trying to ensure that we're doing the right thing. And because of doing the right thing, we probably might just be doing the wrong thing. What an irony. Well, a 16-year-old boy was arrested or has been arrested for purportedly insulting U.S. state governor Myla Boni on social media. And he was arrested on the 11th of December. That's according to the report. But it came to public knowledge on Monday. That's Monday. Just Monday. After, you know, the minor's father, Issa, called on the police authorities to release his son. It was also gathered that the minor was arrested and transferred to the state investigative division of Nigerian police force in Damatoru, Datsun Yube, the state's capital. However, there was also a report saying that the father of the, you know, the boy reached out and apologized for the behavior of his son and asked that he would be released. But, you see, I don't want to even begin to read all of that because of the one-time what he said. He said that he's a laundry worker and he's appealing to the governor. He's a common man. He's a nobody. Please release my son. I know he's done wrong, but I appeal to you and the police to be passionate on your dealings and forgive my son and release him. That's, you know, the statement from the father of the boy, Umar. But, however, the conversation has continued in different spaces, different spaces on social media, off social media. And the question or what a lot of people are even talking about, it's not about the insult. Even though I have been trying to find out what exactly was said, I haven't really seen with all of the report what exactly did the boy say. In the case of the wife of the president, we know what was said. His fact, I mean, it's in some ways like you're feeding fat, you're looking very fat because you're feeding from the common world of the nation. That's what it is. But in this case, not being able to identify what exactly was said by the young lad, but, however, he was arrested, although it's also been reported that the U.S. state governor has asked for the release of the boy and also queried the police calling them overzealous. It's quite dicey, like I rightly mentioned. But it's also important to note that in Nigeria, the minimum age of criminal responsibility varies amongst Nigerian states. So it means that, you know, the minimum criminal age for Lagos, for, you know, Zamfara, for Quara, for emo state, it varies. It depends on where you are. There's no uniformity for the criminal age. But the Constitution will say that you are responsible when you're open to the age of 18. And to also say that the Federal Children's Rights Act of 2003 does not specify minimum age of criminal responsibility. But like I rightly mentioned, it defines a child as under 18 and states that a child in conflict within the law must be dealt with under the Act. So yes, if you have an actor that varies, there's no uniformity. So it could be different in other parts. There's been a lot of argument. CERB has also been on top of the situation calling on the government to release unconditionally because it violates, you know, human rights. It's a human rights concern. But one of the things that you should ask yourself is how swift, you know, those who are in government or governors and dialects, are swift to take action when it comes to all of the issue of defamation, whether it's libel, what have you, but in this case, like I rightly mentioned, I have not seen what Insolity was because I'm still looking to look at the tweets. What was said, you know, about him that led to the arrest of the young boy who's just 16 years old and we know what the law talks about. So yes, that's what's going on. But let's just hope that the young man has been released or the young lad has been released and has been reunited with his family. Away from that, we'll just quickly look at the second conversation, which is the fake LASMA official. I don't know if you'd call him official, but you remember the story which we took right here on a top trending that someone impersonated to be, there was an impersonation, a young man who was acting as a LASMA official. He was arrested, he was apprehended and he was arrested. However, it's also been stated that he's been sentenced to four months jail time. Well, we hope that this would be a lesson if issued, if this would actually deter all those who are also involved in this criminal act and in this kind of activity moving forward. Because one of the things that we talk about in our country or in our politics is the fact that we seem not to be with the law, we seem not to be on the part of the law because we usually do not act in accordance with the law in terms of implementation, what have you. So now that he's been arrested, will these also send a signal and message to those who are involved in act of criminality or those who are involved in this same act, will they send a lesson? His orders are saying that this is not enough. Four months jail time is not enough for the offence and the crime. Let's just imagine how long he's been on the road, how many persons he's actually deforted. But it's also commendable that justice has actually taken this place as much as we criticize the judgment that's been put out or whatever the sentence that he has to serve four months is that enough compared to the crimes that he's committed. I also want to believe that the agency would also sit back and put her acts together in ensuring that this discrepancy is sorted. I mean for a person to impersonate your agency, it's a lot. It tells a lot about the organization. But let's just hope that the organization will put her acts together and ensure that this does not repeat itself. Another top trending is that the police has banned Christmas and New Year's street carnival in Oshun State. Probably it might just really be very saddening for those in Oshun State because this period we've also had where the police in Vera State saying you can't actually use the bangers, the fireworks, that's what we call them. That's what it should be, the fireworks. But of course we know that there are several names for it. You have bangers, some people would say it's knockout. The street pannins, the language would go on. But for Oshun State, it's been reported that the police have said there's not going to be any festivity. You know, having street parties, having carnivals and what have you. And to talk about the carnival, for a state like Cross River State is a plus, you know, when you have the carnival. The carnival has become a very big, major event. I would say it's Africa's biggest street party and we understand the economic implication for that in that particular state. However, that's the much that we can take this morning on a top trending. We take a break and we'll really, really time for us to go and throw in the papers. We'll call it off the press, be still with us.
