I’m not a kidnapper. I’m a legitimate businessman — Suspected Kidnap Kingpin, Evans tells court 😳

Notorious kidnapper, Chukwudimeme Onwuamadike, popular known as Evans has said in court he is not a kidnapper, but a businessman who deals in ornaments and Horlicks.

He disputed all kidnapping allegations leveled against him by the Lagos State Government on Tuesday, led in evidence by his defense counsel, Victor Okpara, saying he was a legitimate businessman.

He claimed that his nickname was not Evans and that he was forced to confess to being a kidnapper after police killed four people in his presence extrajudicially in an attempt to force him to confess.

“I live at Fred Shoboyede Street, Magodo Phase II, Lagos. I am a businessman and I deal in ornaments and Horlicks. My lord, my name is not Evans and I don’t have a nickname,” he said.

He said he had never met his five co-defendants before being captured by the authorities, except on the day they were paraded as members of a kidnapping gang by the police at Area F Police Command in Ikeja, Lagos. The case was postponed until November 5 so that the final written addresses could be adopted.

Melinda pockets $76 billion as Bill and Melinda Gates finalise divorce after 27 years😳

Microsoft co-founders Bill Gates and Melinda French Gates are now officially divorced after 27 years of marriage. The separation became legal after a judge signed off on the documents filed with the King County Superior Court in Washington on Monday.

Ms Gates’ petition for divorce filed before the court in May, was signed on July 30 from “Pivotal Ventures,” her investment firm working mainly on gender equality based in Washington. The petition stated that the couple’s relationship was “irretrievably broken.”

The judge ordered that their property be divided according to the terms of a separation contract, which remains confidential under the terms of the divorce.

Bloomberg had set Mr Gates’ net worth at $152 billion on Monday, the separation may mean that he and Ms Gates could walk away with around $76 billion each.

The document also maintains that neither party will receive spousal support and Ms will not be dropping her last name. As the children of the former couple are all adults, there was no inclusion of child support or a custody agreement in the separation documents.

The former couple had announced their divorce in a joint statement in May, saying they no longer “believe we can grow together as a couple in this next phase of our lives,” but noted that they intended to keep working together at the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

After the announcement, Bloomberg reported that over $3 billion worth of shares held by Mr Gates’s Cascade Investment had been transferred to Ms Gate’s.

: Relocate to your Development Areas to foster grassroots-based intelligence gathering, Gov. Ugwuanyi tells 68 newly sworn-in Administrators

Determined to stem local security challenges, Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu State has directed the 68 newly sworn-in Development Area Administrators in the state, to relocate to their areas and take charge immediately.

Gov. Ugwuanyi also directed that the new Administrators must engage all Traditional Rulers, Presidents of Town Unions, Religious Leaders, Youth Organizations, Women Organizations, Neighbourhood Watch groups, Forest Guards and indeed all stakeholders in their respective Development Areas, to inspire a grassroots security architecture underpinned by robust intelligence gathering and communication of same to security agencies.

The governor who gave the directives when he swore in the Administrators, at the Government House, Enugu, on Tuesday, stressed that the grassroots engagement strategy “is the only means of fully reclaiming our neighbourhoods, and we expect no less”.

Harping on the imperative for this new paradigm of neighbourhood-based intelligence gathering, Gov. Ugwuanyi pointed out that the strategy “stares us in the face”, stressing: “If we must secure our communities/neighbourhoods and fulfill our pivotal mandate of security and welfare of our people, as enshrined in section 14 subsection 2(b) of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (as amended), then we must necessarily understand our neighbourhoods and the residents; their means of livelihood, lifestyle and networks”.

The governor therefore stated that “Enugu State Development Areas can no longer be superintended by absentee or non-resident Development Area Administrators”.

He reminded the Administrators that they have a duty to also ensure that their subjects are fully enlightened on government’s policies and programmes, and mobilized for collaborative partnership in peace keeping as well as implementation of policies and programmes of government.

According to him, “the government and people of Enugu State are eager to see our Development Area Administrators impact the grassroots with a view to changing the narratives on security, local economy and micro-infrastructure.

“Our new Administrators, I congratulate you on your assumption of duty (today) while assuring you of the all-time support of Enugu State Government as you embark on this critical duty.

“I pray that the abiding grace of Almighty God leads you through this onerous assignment”.

Responding, the Administrators expressed gratitude to Gov. Ugwuanyi for giving them the opportunity to serve the state, their respective local government and development areas, and assured the governor that they will discharge their duties diligently in accordance with his directives.

The event was witnessed by the Deputy Governor, Hon. Mrs. Cecilia Ezeilo, Speaker of the State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Edward Uchenna Ubosi and other Honourable Members of the House, State Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Hon. Augustine Nnamani, the Chairman, Enugu State Traditional Rulers' Council, HRH Igwe Amb. Lawrence Agubuzu, Members of the State Executive Council (EXCO), Special Advisers to the Governor, Council Chairmen, among others.

Gov. Ugwuanyi announced the scholarships when he received the two students at the Government House Enugu on Tuesday, to appreciate their talents, skills and sheer dexterity in promoting technology-based innovation in the state.

Expressing his delight, Gov. Ugwuanyi disclosed that he is very proud of the students and the many feats the educational system has brought to Enugu State since the inception of his administration, stressing that “all the money being spent in education is a worthy investment”.

Appreciating the Commissioner for Education, Prof. Uche Eze, the Executive Chairman of the Science, Technical and Vocational Schools Management Board (STVSMB), Dr. Gabriel Ajah, the Principal of GTC, Nsukka, Peter Ugwuokpe, and other stakeholders in the education system for the achievements being recorded in the sector, Gov. Ugwuanyi requested the Commissioner to immediately present to the State Executive Council (EXCO), a memo for the approval of the sum of N100 million for the construction of more classroom blocks in Government Technical Colleges (GTCs) in the state.

The governor equally directed the Executive Chairman of STVSMB, Dr. Ajah, to apply for the sum of N50 million for the construction of more technical workshops in GTCs Nsukka and Enugu, and also request for employment of additional technical teachers, for the EXCO's approval.

“I am proud of all of you; I am proud of the education system in Enugu State; I am excited. The young student from Anambra State, we give you N500,000.00 and scholarship for manufacturing a radio set in our state”, Gov. Ugwuanyi said.

In his remarks, the Commissioner for Education, Prof. Eze, applauded Gov. Ugwuanyi for the premium his administration places on education in the state as well as his gesture to meet with the students to encourage and appreciate their talents.

“We are so happy, and we appreciate this honour given to us to come and make this presentation. Your Excellency, your schools are working; this is just one of the many things that are going on in our technical colleges. Thank you for encouraging our young talents. This is part of the legacies you are leaving behind for posterity”.

Responding, the two students, Chukwu and Udoye, expressed their deepest joy and gratitude to Gov. Ugwuanyi for honouring them, adding that the encouragement and support from the governor, which they never expected, will spur them to fully actualize their dreams. They asked God to continue to bless the governor.

RACISM FROM WITHIN SADLY!!!
Senegalese Player, Krepin Diatta, lashed out at people, especially Africans, who mocked his physical look during the past African Cup. This is what he had to say on social media:

"I am very sad to see some African brothers making fun of me. I work for our beautiful and dear African continent and what I receive in return are only insults, mockery from my brothers. This is too bad of you and racism comes from there.

I need your encouragement and not your insults. Thank you to everyone who supports me. Only God makes my strength and I am proud of my physical person. Your mockery won't change anything in my life. But one thing is for sure, we are all african."

Don’t relocate abroad. Everything is not about money — FG cautions the youth 😳🙄

The federal government has cautioned youths seeking employment opportunities abroad to be careful, so as not to end up as victims of trafficking.

Memunat Idu-Lah, director of international cultural relations in the ministry of information and culture, gave the warning during an interview with NAN on Sunday, August 1.

According to her, “Our youths should look inward and be creative. Everybody has one creativity or the other. Everybody has something they’re born to do in this world.

I think we should discourage the youths from going out. If they need support, there are some government agencies saddled with the responsibility of providing many empowerment programmes.

These agencies can support youths to learn something and be productive, rather than looking at running out. We should not think of going out. We should try to look inward and believe in government’s programmes.

They have to know that everything is not [about] money. The children can stay back in Nigeria, even help Nigeria’s economy, because when they use their hands to do something creative, they can add to the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of the nation, instead of even losing our good hands in the name of trafficking and they die in the process.”

(Episode four & five

Lara was still waiting at the visitors balcony when she was called by the secretary that the boss is in the office.

"Ma'am, you can go in the boss is in the office now, the secretary said to her.
" Thanks , Lara said as she stood up , she asked for the direction to the office and the secretary led her through.
while climbing the staircase , her heart was beating very fast, the words of her boss was echoing in her mind.
"oh God please you have to help me get the contract signed , please God, Lara silently said within her.

" Here you go ma, the secretary said as she opens the door to the boss office.
"sir here is the Lady who wants to meet with you, the secretary said to a young man whose back was facing them.
" OK, you may leave, young Lady take sit , I'm coming let me quickly gets this file, the young man said still with his back facing Lara.

Just as Lara was about to take a sit, the young man turned , Immediately Lara saw him, she staggered on her feet almost falling to the floor.

"Easy, Easy, Michael said as he rushed to catch Lara.
Lara couldn't believe her eyes and same with Michael. They were both staring at each other.
Lara was dumbfounded and at the same time was feeling bad, she can't believe that the same guy she slapped yesterday is the same person she has been longing to meet since morning.
Lara thought within herself that she has already lost the contract remembering all that she have said and done to Micheal.
Have you read Coolval stories yet?

Michael on the other hand behaved cool, he didn't show any sort of reaction rather he told Lara to get a sit , so that they can discuss the reason why she is here.

" young Lady what's your name and why are you here, Michael said without a glance at Lara.
"Lara handed some papers to him as she said her name.
" my name is Lara George , I'm a member of the public relations personnel in Grace Adams limited company, Lara said still with fear and guilt in her. As she was talking her voice was trembling, she had expected that Michael would yell at her but instead he behaved calmly and that kept Lara wondering.

"OK , miss or mrs Lara , which one, Michael asked
" its miss Lara... Lara replied.
"OK fine, have gone through your proposal and have seen all your designs, I must confess that they are good , nevertheless we will cross check it and if it fits our demand we will get back to you, Michael said looking straight into Lara's eyes. Lara couldn't stand his gaze as she bow her head.

" o..OK..sir , thank you, so..so, when should we be expecting your reply, Lara said stammering.
Michael almost laughed at her behavior but he controlled himself.
"well like I said earlier we will get back to you very soon, just make sure you dropped your number with the secretary on your way going, Michael said
Lara nods her head as confirmation to do exactly what he said.
" OK then, its was nice meeting you, Michael said as he stretch forth his hands, the same hands that he had wanted to touch Lara with but instead she gave him a slap.
"Lara looked at his hands , she was feeling scared to shake him remembering how she had slapped him with her owns hands and that same hands are what she going to use to shake him. she reluctantly brought out her hands and shake Michael's hands but with her eyes closed, Michael saw it and smiled.

After the shaking of hands as Lara was about going , Michael called her back, that moment she thought Michael wants to remind of their difference in the past, she just couldn't wait for him to say anything as she quickly open her mouth and said
" I'm sorry for everything, please don't terminate this contract, it means a lot to my boss and my company, she said as she knelt down.

Michael was surprised, he had only called her back to tell her his name and not to terminate any contract.
"No, No, am not terminating any contract, I only called you to tell my name which I was supposed to do earlier if you had asked.

" oh..mm..em..sorry , Lara said standing up, so what's your name? Lara asked.
"my name is Michael and my brother's name is Kenneth, you might also be meeting him in case am not around, Michael said
" OK, it was then clear to Lara what the M&K stands for , ( Michael and Kenneth).

(Episode five)

Later in the night when Lara got home , she was feeling so restless, remembering the meeting she had earlier with Michael.
she thought within herself that Michael was a very cool guy, if it were to be other person maybe he would have walked her out of his office and terminated the contract.
Lara thought and thought, she was just confused not knowing what will come out of all these, she just pray she hear from him very soon because her boss will be on her neck until this deal is finalised.

One week passed and Lara have not heard anything from Michael or his company, her boss have been disturbing her in the office, she was so confused and started thinking otherwise.
"could this mean he had terminated the deal!
" No he can't, he promised not to terminate it , he said he will go through all the design and will let me know if he likes it or not .
oh God please what's happening, Lara thought within herself while she was in her sitting room . After some minutes it was as if God heard Lara's prayer , her phone rang. Lara checked it , the number was unknown , she wonder who it was and just as she picked it , she heard a male voice.

"Hello, the voice said
" Hello, please who is speaking ? Lara asked
" This is Michael the CEO of the M&K company, Michael said

Lara's joy knew no bound when she found out that Michael was the one who called.
"Good day Sir, Lara said trying to be official but Michael cut it all short as he said " Please be in my office first thing tomorrow morning to sort some things out" , the moment he said this he hung up.

Lara was so shocked, she thought that wasn't it the same Michael who tried to talk to her some days ago , he sounded so nice that she concluded he was a flirt and when she met him in his office he behaved cool that made her see herself as the bad person because Michael turned out to be a cool guy , so why is he strict all of a sudden.
only God knows what tomorrow meeting with him would look like.

very early in the morning Lara arrive at Michael's office, this time Michael was around.

"Good morning Mr Michael, Lara greeted . Michael just gave a nod without replying , he brought out a file and threw it on the table.
" what is this? he asked
"sir, what do you mean?Lara asked
" I mean those designs, can't you see that they are lame, see young Lady if you want to work with us and if know you want to get your company this contract ,then you have to be extraordinary creative, Michael said making Lara so shocked
"what's has gotten into him during the week, is he now preparing his own pay back to what she did to him before? why is he now behaving somehow to me, Lara thought
" look sir, if you don't like the design , I can create a new one please don't terminate the deal, Lara said calmly trying to control her temper because she really went through a lot of stress before getting those designs and someone is now asking her to redo it.
"Better for you , please do it again, I expected a lot from you not this lame work, Michael said . This time Lara was just enduring it, she was loosing it badly but there's nothing she can do .
" so sir when do you want them , I mean the new designs? Lara asked
"first thing tomorrow morning, Michael said and Lara's eyes popped out.
" Mr Michael , do you know what you are saying, it took me so many hours and sleepless night to get all these design and you are now saying I should get a new one before tomorrow, I'm sorry but I can't, and besides what's wrong with this design ?Lara said pointing at the other designs

Michael started clapping his hands making Lara to wonder what's happening
"This is it, the once fearless Lady I met some days ago not the shaking one that came to my office the other day, Michael said making Lara more confused.
