‘I’ve Video, Audio Recording Showing Where Priest Sexually Harassed Me’ – Dismissed Catholic Nun

Published

on

Dismissed Catholic Nun, Rev. Sr. Anastasia Kinse, has claimed there is video and audio recording evidence that a priest sexually harassed her.

It was reports that Annastasia made this known on Monday while responding to questions during an interview on Arise Television’s ‘Prime Time’.

Annastasia, who was serving under the Auchi Catholic Diocese in Edo State, alleged that she was dismissed from her job at the Veritas University in Abuja following her exposure of the sexual rot being perpetrated within the Church.

Narrating her ordeal, Annastasia stated that she cannot disclose the evidence of the sexual harassment to the public.

She said, “I find it very funny when I was asked for evidence, but in our world today, imagine me coming out, calling names and talking doesn’t make any sense.

“It’s not as if the evidence that I was s3xually harassed by a priest do not exist, they do, but I cannot put them out there.

“I have a video and an audio recording that shows where the Veritas HOD harassed me.

“I joined the congregation of Mother of Perpetual Help of the Archangels Sisters in 2015. After that I experienced so many challenges and I had always confided in my Superior-General and my Bishop.

“The issue has been that I was always complaining, according to them. First, I wrote to the bishop that the priest was always shouting at me whenever I came to the office to talk to him.

“I told my superior about a priest I was living in the same compound with, that on a fateful day I went into his room and he tried to touch me and I don’t just understand if that’s a norm and my superior told me to ignore him.

“There was a priest in 2016 that said I should go with him in his car to his parish for a week and I felt that shouldn’t happen.

“And another priest put his belt on my waist trying to check the size of the clothes he would get me when I visit him, and that broke me, gave me a lot of trauma which is what they termed madness.”

PHOTOS & VIDEOS: National strike by Belgium’s big unions hits public transport, airports and ships

Published

on

Tens of thousands of people have taken to the streets in Brussels as part of a national strike over government reforms and spending cuts that has brought flights to a halt and severely disrupted public transport.

Belgium’s three big unions are protesting over pensions and other measures by Prime Minister Bart de Wever’s centre-right government aimed at cutting the budget deficit.

There were no services at Belgium’s second biggest airport at Charleroi, and all departures and many of the arrivals were cancelled at Brussels Airport.

Although trains were running, most buses, trams and underground trains in the capital ground to a halt.

Shipping at Europe’s second biggest port Antwerp was suspended until Wednesday because of understaffing, and more than 100 ships waited in the North Sea for permission to dock at three ports, according to Belgium’s MDK maritime and coastal services.

Belgium has been hit by several strikes since Flemish nationalist Bart de Wever came to office last February.

By midday, police said 80,0000 protesters had joined the demonstration in the Belgian capital.

Public sector workers were protesting against austerity measures and a government increasingly perceived as leaning right.

They wound through the streets of central Brussels, many wearing the red or green colours of the main unions.

A key issue for the unions is the government’s plan to increase the number of days Belgians work per year before they can receive their pensions, as well as the end of special schemes for several sectors including military and railway workers.

De Wever’s government has also announced measures including a maximum two-year limit on claiming unemployment benefit. Further cuts are planned for next year’s budget, and some proposals such as reducing child benefit or raising VAT have already been floated.

“It’s about time we came together,” said Anaïs, 29. “It’s always the same part of the population that has to tighten their belts.”

Holding a placard showing the number 67 with a red line through it, she objected to the pension age going up: “65 is enough. 67 is too late. We are asked to work more, to work longer hours. It’s not fair.”

The rise in pension age was adopted 10 years ago, well before De Wever’s government came to office, but it remains deeply unpopular and the government is aiming to ringfence it and make it more expensive to retire earlier.

Thierry Bodson of the ABVV union told demonstrators that “the fight against the De Wever government is not just the fight of a day or a year – it’s for a whole generation”, Belga news agency reported.

“We need to fight for our rights,” said mother-of-two Vanessa, who had travelled from Charleroi.

“I’m worried about the measures that will be taken. What sort of future will my children have?” she told the BBC.

It is not just the federal government under pressure to cut spending. Belgium’s complex multi-level governance means regional authorities are also imposing austerity measures.

The ruling coalition in Belgium’s largely French-speaking Walloon region has announced that teachers in the higher tiers of secondary schools will have to work an extra two hours per week.

Many of them joined the protests today.

“Nothing is clear, and it’s really worrying, but if higher-level teachers have to work more, many jobs will be cut,” said Sandrine, 48, who works in education.

Although the protests were largely peaceful, there were several incidents of vandalism and arson early in the morning and some people in masks clashed with police later on.

‘I Am Not Sure I Am Going To Make Heaven’ – Donald Trump

Published

on

United States President, Donald Trump, has reflected on his recent diplomatic gains in the Middle East, joking about his chances of making heaven after brokering a ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas.

The two-year war in Gaza came to a grinding halt following the agreement, leading to the release of hostages from both sides and long-awaited reunions for families.

It was reports that Trump, who campaigned on a pledge to end global wars, has been widely praised for his role in the truce.

Speaking in August, Trump had said he believed his efforts to end the Russia-Ukraine war could secure him a place in the afterlife.

He said, “I want to try to get to heaven, if possible. I’m hearing I’m not doing well. I am really at the bottom of the totem pole. But if I can get to heaven, this will be one of the reasons.”

However, on Monday, while en route to Israel to oversee the handover of the first Israeli hostages, Trump laughed off the suggestion that the Gaza breakthrough could earn him a spot in eternity.

“I’m being a little cute, I don’t think there’s anything going to get me in heaven. I think I’m maybe not heaven-bound. I may be in heaven right now as we fly in Air Force One. I’m not sure I’m going to be able to make heaven, but I’ve made life a lot better for a lot of people,” he quipped.

The US president also repeated his claim that the war in Ukraine could have been avoided if not for the 2020 election outcome.

“I knew Putin very well, I was the apple of his eye. All the things that I’ve said never would have happened,” Trump insisted, maintaining that Russia’s invasion would have been prevented.

Trump recently met Russian President, Vladimir Putin in Alaska for the first time since their 2018 Helsinki summit.

The high-level talks, which raised hopes of ending the protracted Russia-Ukraine conflict, ended without an agreement, dimming expectations of an immediate breakthrough.

Allah Opened My Eyes To See Who My True Allies Are – Former Lawmaker, Farouk Lawan Speaks After Presidential Pardon

Published

on

Former member of the House of Representatives, Farouk Lawan, has spoken after he was granted a presidential pardon by President Bola Tinubu.

It was reports that Lawan who represented Bagwai/Shanono Federal Constituency of Kano State, had been convicted in 2021 for soliciting and accepting bribes in 2012.

On June 22, 2021, a Federal High Court sentenced him to seven years in prison.

Lawan was among the 175 persons pardoned by President Tinubu on Thursday, October 9, 2025, following the recommendation of the Council of State.

Speaking in an interview with the BBC Hausa Service on Tuesday, Lawan expressed heartfelt gratitude to the president.

He stated that the experience taught him valuable lessons about life and destiny.

He said, “When someone goes through a trial and Allah grants a chance for pardon, you must be thankful. My family and well-wishers across the world were all filled with joy when the news broke.”

He added, “It was indeed a day of thanksgiving to Allah, for He made it possible, and to President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu for doing what is right, something worthy of commendation.”

Reflecting on his prison experience, Lawan said he had long surrendered everything to Allah, knowing that no one can escape destiny.

“Before I even got to prison, my mind was at peace. I knew that wherever I was going, I would meet people, and if others could survive there, I too could live through it,” he stated.

After his release in 2024, the former lawmaker said he took deliberate steps to realign his political direction, parting ways with the Kwankwasiyya movement, which he had long been associated with.

He explained that although he was a Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) member when he went to prison, he later instructed his supporters to join the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) ahead of the 2023 elections, a directive they followed.

“When Allah allows you to face trials, He also opens your eyes to see who your true allies are and who are not. When you’re in a place like prison, you have enough time to reflect deeply on your relationships,” Lawan said.

He revealed that despite his closeness to the Kwankwasiyya movement, a prominent figure in the group never called to sympathise or rejoice with him after his release.

“It’s been a year now, and not even a phone call from him, not to say, ‘Thank you, Allah, you’re out,’ or offer a prayer for me,” he lamented.

Lawan, however, clarified that although he no longer identifies politically with the Kwankwasiyya group, he still maintains mutual respect for its leader, Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso.

He concluded that his current focus is on working with a party that has broader national acceptance.
