“Manhood Of Serial Rapists Should Be Cut Off” – Ireti Doyle

Iretiola Doyle,Nollywood actress, has expressed her disgust as regards how trivial rape cases in are being treated in Nigeria.Doyle said rapists should be severely punished .
according to PUNCH:
“In Nigeria, as in almost everywhere in the world, I do not think that rape cases are handled properly often times. What makes it worse for us in Nigeria is that in advanced countries, they have strict laws and most times, the law is enforced and justice is done. In Nigeria, we have laws in place but are they enforced as they should be? I don’t think so. But I am happy that there is a lot more conversation about it. People tend to think that rape is on the increase but I don’t think so; I think it has always been a part of our society but you are hearing a lot more about it now because people are talking about it.

French Islamic groups urge Muslims to condemn terrorism

France's main Islamic groups urged Muslims across the country to observe a minute of
silence on Thursday and for imams to condemn terrorism in the wake of the massacre at the Charlie Hebdo satirical magazine.
The groups called on "Muslim citizens of France to observe a minute of silence today at midday, along with the rest of the nation, in memory of the victims of terrorism."
The appeal - issued by Muslim assemblies from across France - also called on imams at Friday prayers to "condemn the violence and the terrorism with maximum firmness".
Muslim citizens were also asked to join "in massive numbers" a national day of solidarity on Sunday where demonstrators are expected to take to the streets of towns across France.
Police were frantically hunting two men who fled Paris on Wednesday after gunning down 12 people in an attack on Charlie Hebdo, apparently in retaliation for the magazine's defiant stance in publishing cartoons they deemed offensive to Islam.
