Mowing down children and the racist feeding frenzy that followed.
Alabama in the 1930s?"* Two children, who were riding a motorised pushbike and left with serious injuries, were allegedly pursued and mowed down by 56-year-old Gol Gol man Andrew Brien.."
"Mr Brien allegedly pursued the children through the pedestrian-only mall in the belief they were involved in vandalism at his partner's real estate business. However, the court heard the children were "blameless" of any offending on the night."
"The amount and volume of racist and violent comments surged after the incident, with hundreds of social media posts laying blame on the boys and praising the driver.""The act alone was shocking, but what followed on social media revealed a distressing and damaging ugliness...What we've seen lately in terms of social media is that anger is coming out in really primal responses, in ideas and thoughts and beliefs which do not have a place in a civilised society."
"It is not OK to hurt children. It is never OK to hurt children. It's not OK to call this man a hero."
"No-one should see violence against their children or community being celebrated or joked about...I don't want to see comments that I think would be better placed in 1930s Alabama". >>
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-08-21/mildura-leaders-call-for-calm-after-boys-struck-by-ute/107032768* "A 24-year-old hit and run driver who injured two pedestrians, one of them fatally, sped away and then bragged about it to his friends has been spared jail time in Darwin."

The Alibi of Antiquity: Tinubu, Hunger, and the Diplomacy of Shrugging by Lawson Akhigbe
Nobody disputes the premise. Hunger did, in fact, predate Bola Tinubu, in the same sense that gravity predated Isaac Newton. The trouble is what the premise is being asked to do. It is not offered as background. It is offered as an alibi, the rhetorical equivalent of a defendant telling the court that crime existed before he was born, and therefore he cannot reasonably be expected to account for the burglary. The doctrine of necessity has been stretched to cover many things in Nigerian constitutional history; this may be the first time it has been invoked to cover a grocery bill. -
Front-end development is the process of building the visual and interactive parts of websites or web applications that users interact with directly. It bridges the gap between design and backend systems, relying on three core technologies: HTML for structure, CSS for styling, and JavaScript for behavior.

From Oba Drama to British Real Estate
For the next century Lagos was the prize: capital of the Colony and Protectorate, then of independent Nigeria until Abuja stole the crown in 1991. Herbert Macaulay turned it into the cradle of Nigerian nationalism. The Action Group under Awolowo made it the Western Region’s intellectual and political headquarters. Meanwhile the federal government and the regions fought over whether Lagos belonged to the West or to everyone. Spoiler: everyone wanted a piece of the port, the money, and the prestige.https://lawakhigbe.com/2026/08/20/from-oba-drama-to-british-real-estate/

'Who gets to define the domain — "the international", "the economy", "society" — shapes who gets to define the problem and the solution. I call it "domain differentiation".'

DevSecOps integrates security seamlessly into every phase of the software development lifecycle. It replaces traditional, slow security reviews by embedding automated vulnerability testing and policy enforcement directly into CI/CD pipelines, making security a shared responsibility between developers, security teams, and operations.

Few things cannot be corrected, which is why I let people make mistakes. The exception is the class that cannot be undone. That is the right line for autonomy. Reversible work runs unattended. Irreversible work gets a gate, every time.

An AI translation may sound polished, authoritative and entirely plausible.
But a missing negation or mistranslated technical term can alter a scientific conclusion, safety instruction or business decision without alerting the reader.
We look at the consequences of convincing mistakes and offer practical guidance for using AI translation more safely.
So how much do you verify when using automated translation?

On the Sartorial Decline of the Nigerian Political Class: Monday Okpebholo, Yekini Idiaye, and the Wardrobe of Impunity By Lawson Akhigbe
Governor Monday Okpebholo of Edo State is a man who, on the evidence of a recent photograph shaking hands with new Speaker of the Edo State House of Assembly Yekini Idiaye, appears to have mistaken the office of Chief Executive for a weekend errand run. A branded baseball cap. Clothing better suited to a beer parlour than a state formal meeting. Khaki trousers that suggest safari rather than sovereignty. This is not a man dressing down to meet the people. This is a man dressing as though the people are an inconvenience he is squeezing in between other appointments. -

When "Superintelligence" arrives, where will it be deployed? On military targets in Gaza, Iran,and Lebanon, or on curing cancer? Managed by figures like Peter Thiel-who explicitly
rejects democracy—it's not ASl; it's a
high-tech paramilitary tool for systemic
control. Be vigilant: Big Tech's dream is our
nightmare. #AI #TechEthics #Governance -
Defense in depth counts on someone noticing, or the actor hesitating long enough for someone to catch up. Humans with unenforced boundaries are a probability problem. An optimizer is closer to a certainty problem. It had nothing to hesitate over.

The Invisible Invasion: Britain’s Immigration Panic and the Arithmetic It Cannot Face By Lawson Akhigbe
Black people account for roughly four percent of the population of England and Wales. More of them are in the EastEnders cast than are arriving on the asylum route in any given year. Yet Britain has contrived to make this the defining political question of the age. We should talk about that.
