PDP Disqualifies 3 Senatorial Aspirants
No less than 3 senatorial aspirants and 1 House of Representatives aspirant in Kogi state were disqualified by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)’s National Assembly screening committee.

The affected aspirants include Ubolo Itodo Okpanachi, Aminu Abubakar Suleiman, and Ahmed Ogembe.
Another aspirant vying for the house of representative position, Ismail Inah Hussein was also dropped by the screening committee.
For alleged acts of misconduct, Itodo Okpanachi and Aminu Abubakar Suleiman were disqualified from the Kogi East senatorial contest on Thursday, April 28.
The aspirants have indicated an interest to appeal the committee’s decisions.
The screening committee in Lokoja held that Suleiman was screened out because he is not a registered voter in the senatorial district, and thus cannot be voted for in the coming senatorial election.
Another parameter used for Suleiman was that he has not voted for anyone in Kogi East, Nigerian Tribune reports.

Okpanachi was accused of being a mole of the All Progressives Congress (APC), where he allegedly got an appointment.
Though the PDP’s constitution permits members who defected from the party to return, members are to fulfill stipulated conditions before taking up an elective position which, by the standard of the committee, Okpanachi was yet to meet as at the time he was screened.
Also, an aspirant vying for the Kogi Central Senatorial seat, a former federal lawmaker, Ahmed Ogembe, was dropped.
Even more, Ismail Inah Hussein, an aspirant to the House of Representatives from the Idah Federal Constituency, was dropped on the grounds of anti-party activities.
However, as reported by PM News, the disqualified aspirants have indicated an interest in approaching the party’s screening appeals committee to seek redress.
Recall two presidential aspirants were disqualified by the PDP’s screening committee chaired by David Mark.
Both aspirants whose names were withheld were to forfeit the N80 million with which they bought the expression of interest and nomination forms.
Mark announced the development after the screening exercise on Friday, April 29.

Lady Who Claimed To Sleep With A Dog Recants
The lady who made a viral TikTok video claiming she slept with a dog for N1.7million has said she was merely “catching cruise,” a slang for joking.

The slim, light-skinned woman with TikTok user ID @Veegodess has been trending on social media after saying there was no big deal about bestiality.
She claimed that video, that contrary to what people think about sleeping with a dog, she had never contracted any disease.
“What is the big deal there? I only slept with a dog, I didn’t kill somebody. You, in your life, you have done worse, and besides, have you seen N1.7million before?
“As if it’s a big deal. And mind you I’m not infected or anything. Stop dying on the matter, I’m enjoying the money,” she stated in the first video.
But following backlash from Nigerians who condemned her for the act, the lady recanted.
