NSCDC personnel allegedly assaults woman in Plateau state

A personnel of the Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps, NSCDC, has been accused of assaulting a shop owner, Mrs. Joy Owolabi, in Jos, Plateau state.

The incident which happened at the Nanmwa Junction, Abattoir area in Jos South local government area on Friday, September 2, left her with serious injuries on her eyes and other parts of her body.

According to Vanguard, before the Friday incident, the yet-to-be identified personnel came to the betting office next to the victim’s shop last month and parked his official motorcycle in front of Mrs Owolabi’s shop, blocking her entrance. She said she called his attention to re-park the motorcycle but she was allegedly ignored and an argument ensued.

According to the publication, on that Friday, the personnel returned to the betting shop with his colleague and parked his motorcycle in the similar manner that the woman complained about. The incident led to an exchange of words between him and the shop owner.

Instead of parking his motorcycle properly, the victim and some eyewitnesses alleged he punched the victim, pushed her to the ground and started flogging her with a wire as neighbours and passersby watch helplessly. None could rescue the woman as the assaulter and his colleague were armed.

Narrating her ordeal, Mrs. Owolabi said people could not rescue her as the NSCDC personnel and his colleague were armed.

“I was in my shop on the 2nd of September, 2022, at about noon, I saw two men in uniform, they were from the Nigerian Security and Civil Defense Corps, they rode into my shop. One stood by the roadside and the second one came to the entrance of my shop.

"They came with an official motorcycle, when the man parked, blocking the entrance of my shop, I went and met him and said please, help me re-park this motorcycle because the way you parked, I cannot enter the shop,"

Pastor arrested for defiling and impr€gnating the 12-year-old daughter of his church member who went to him for deliverance

A 48-year-old Pastor of "The Light House Gospel Church" Oluwo, Owode Egba, Pastor Michael Abiodun, has been arrested by men of Ogun state Police Command for allegedly defiling and impregnating the 12-year-old daughter of a member of his church.

It is reported that the suspect was arrested following information received at Owode Egba divisional headquarters that, the victim's mother joined the church as a result of a spiritual problem that led to the de@th of two of her daughters.

In order to prevent the victim from the same calamity, she ran to the church for deliverance. On a fateful day, the Pastor who is a father-of-three asked the victim's mother to send her to him for special prayers, but on getting there, the Pastor took her into a room within the church and f%rcefully had carnal knowledge of her which resulted in pregnancy.

Upon the information, the DPO Owode Egba division, CSP Olasunkanmi Popoola, detailed his detectives to the scene where the randy Pastor was promptly arrested. On interrogation, he confessed to the crime but blamed it on the devil. He further confessed to being the one that disvirgined the victim, a JSS 2 student.

The mother of the victim explained to the police that she didn't know her daughter was pregnant until seven months after. The victim, who was delivered of a baby three months ago informed the police that she was thre@tened by the Pastor with a dire consequence if she informed anybody about what had transpired between them, and that was the reason she didn't tell her mother.

A Point of Sale operator, pastor Busari Shuaib Olawale Peter, has been shot dead by armed robbers in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital.

It was gathered that the gunmen killed the 45-year-old pastor and made away with the food pack he was holding which they thought contained cash.

A resident, who identified himself as Ojikutu, told TheCable, that the deceased had just opened his shop on Friday, August 12, 2022, when the gunmen attacked him.

"Pastor normally comes early in the morning. He did the same today and soon after he opened the shop, the two gunmen on a motorcycle approached him,” he said.

"At gunpoint, they asked him to give them the bag in his hand and he did immediately. However, unknown to the robbers, the bag contained Pastor’s food, while the one containing money was somewhere in the shop

"They took the food bag and as they were about to leave, I think Pastor told them that they would be apprehended. That was when they shot him at a close range

"The sound of the gun brought the robbery to our attention, but before we could come out, they had sped away. He was taken to a hospital nearby but a doctor told us they would not admit him as he was already dead."

Unknown assailants suspected have abducted, r***d and killed a student of the Moshood Abiola Polytechnic (MAPOLY), Abeokuta, Ogun State, identified as Happiness Okwa.

It was gathered that the ND II student of Mass Communication, won the Miss MAPOLY beauty contest on August 3, 2022.

The victim was said to have been kidnapped on her way to Ipara, in Ode Remo, on Tuesday evening, August 9, by some gunmen who allegedly r***d her before killing her.

The MAPOLY Students Union President, Sodiq Ajani, confirmed the incident in Abeokuta on Saturday, August 13.

Ajani in a statement jointly signed with the Public Relations Officer, Joy Okolie, said the deceased was kidnapped three days ago while going to visit a movie location.

"Moshood Abiola Polytechnic Students Union (MAPSU) announces the untimely death of Miss Happiness Odeh, a Mass Communication student of MAPOLY.

"According to reports, she was abducted along Iperu road to her destination. The deceased left Abeokuta three days ago to visit a movie location at Ipara, Ode-Remo, with the consent of her parents

"Contrary to the rumours flying around, her death is not related to her status as the new Miss MAPOLY. She won the award on the 3rd of August and the movie location she attended has nothing to do with the beauty pageantry on campus

"We commiserate with her family, friends and colleagues. May Almighty God grant us all the fortitude to bear this painful loss. Continue to rest in the bosom of the Lord,” the statement read.

The SUG President further explained that the murderers took away the victim’s phone.

According to him, the police have commenced investigations, making efforts to get the assailants arrested.

Ajani disclosed that the body of the slain student had been deposited at the morgue of the Olabisi Onabanjo University Teaching Hospital, Sagamu.

The True Story: The Man Killed By His Wife’s Le***an Partner In Onitsha.

On the 9th of August, a young man in his 30s died after a fight with a lady in Onitsha – a city in Anambra State, Nigeria. This tragedy hit the headline and trended everywhere on Social Media. It made it to almost every National Tabloid with the Title: Woman Stabs Le***an Partner’s Husband To Death In Onitsha. And all of them – and bloggers that amplified the story – reported that the man caught his wife and her le***an partner in the act, and that led to his murder. This is a work of mischief. No matter how unpopular it will become, we should know what really transpired.

Ikechukwu Onuma, popularly known as Ayaya, was a young man in his 30s. He married Nkem in 2019, and both lived in Ogboli Road by Ibekwe Street in Onitsha.

Not too far from their house lived one Ebele Onochie – a tomboy. Ebele is a close friend of Nkem, and people accused her of le***anism. The neighborhood also believed that Nkem, Ayaya’s wife, is one of her bedmates. This street-talk created bad blood between Ayaya and Ebele.

On the 9th of August, Ayaya was at a birthday party. His friend little boy was the celebrant. He was drinking with friends when his wife, Nkem, called him. She reported an issue concerning Ebele. Believing he has seen a reason to teach Ebele a lesson, Ayaya left his friends at the event and rushed back home.

There was no electricity in the street on that day. And the time was already after 8 pm. Nkem sent a boy to buy fuel for the generator. While on his way, Ebele confronted the boy. Learning that Nkem sent him on the errand, she took the can, and the money for the fuel and instructed him to tell Nkem that she (Ebele) seized the items. And that was why Nkem called her husband.

Ayaya was a strong man. Ebele was not a match for him. He rushed to Ebele’s compound to teach her a lesson. Both of them created a scene. Ebele had a penknife with her. In the altercation’s course, she stabbed Ikechukwu.

It was late and dark. No one knew Ayaya was losing a lot of blood. And when they noticed he was bleeding, they didn’t know how serious it was. He (Ikechukwu) walked to a chemist’s shop and was told the injury was fatal. They were still arranging for a means of transportation when Ikechukwu slumped.

They rushed him to Hope Hospital in Modebe Avenue, Onitsha. Unfortunately, he was confirmed dead on arrival.

Husband kills Wife, Then Attempts Su***de In Niger State

According to the sister of the deceased, this is not the first time Adeniyi Jose is making an attempt on Chioma

On the suspicion of infidelity, Adeniyi Jose, a 45-year-old indigene of Ondo State but resident in Niger, has strangled his wife of eight years, 39-year-old Chioma Gloria Ibeh, from Imo state.

The incident occurred on Monday in Suleja, Niger State.

It was gathered that Jose used a rope to str@ngle his wife, and after confirming that she was dead, he consumed a poisonous substance in a failed su!cide attempt.

The unconscious bodies of the couple were found by the wife’s sister, Brenda Ibeh, who visited the couple and didn’t get an answer when she knocked.

She peeped through the kitchen window and found her sister’s body with bruises all over, a pillow on her face, and a rope circling her body.

She invited the police and when they gained entrance into the house, they found Chioma had died.

Jose was rushed to Suleja General Hospital, where he’s said to be receiving treatment.

A source saying that the husband was a jealous man and frequently fought his wife if he suspected she was getting undue attention from men. He reportedly disliked seeing her talking or discussing with other men.

The couple have been married since 2014 and have a son together.

According to the sister of the deceased, this is not the first time Adeniyi Jose was making an attempt on his wife’s life.

Brenda said Jose had no job and her sister was the breadwinner.

She said: “He is jobless while my sister is the one feeding him and taking care of their 9-year-old child. My Sister works at the registrar’s department of the General Hospital, Suleja Niger state.”

Brenda added: “Jose first attempted to kill my sister in the first week of April when my sister returned from fixing our dad’s house in the village. My dad was with Road Safety and his pension money was used to fix his house.

“We agreed that she should play that role because she was a graduate. He called her and disturbed her so much that she had to run back and when she did, that same night, he almost killed her with a sharp knife he had bought and drank sniper. The case was reported to the police at Suleja and nothing was done about it,” she said.

Now the irony of this story is that the man who k!lled his wife because of infidelity, was found in other women's dm. If she left the first time he hit her, she will be alive. Una no dey hear word.

"Gunmen Broke Into My House At 2am With A POS Demanding For 20m" - Actor Saka

Another Nollywood actor has been a victim of the country's increasing insecurity, which has reached such alarming levels that even our mansions and top stars are no longer safe.

Actor Saka in Nollywood claims that on Monday night, armed men broke into his home in Abeokuta, Ogun State. Saka is a veteran Nollywood actor.

This information was revealed in a statement provided to newsmen by a friend of the veteran Kayode Soaga.

According to Soaga, the armed men broke into Saka's home and threatened to kill him unless they received N20 million.

The men broke into his home at around two in the morning, fully armed with pump action rifles and matchetes, and they dispersed his guards.

More terrible robberies took place in three more homes on the same block. They destroyed the burglary proof and immediately approached him, threatening to kill him unless he paid N20 million. The star said he didn't have even though he begged and pleaded for N3m.

In addition to torturing the actor, they also confiscated all of his laptops, iPhones, Android phones, and any cash that was in the house as well as his ATM cards.

2023: Give Nigeria To Tinubu, Go Back To Bed, When You Wake-up You'll See Wonders – Yoruba Monarch, Oluwo

The Oluwo of Iwo, Oba Abdulrosheed Adewale Akanbi, has described Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the All Presidential Congress (APC) as the solution to Nigeria’s challenges.

He also described Tinubu as a unifier whose conducts have been instrumental to the sustenance of one Nigeria.

In a statement signed by Alli Ibraheem, his Chief Press Secretary, Oba Akanbi noted that as a detribalised Nigerian, Tinubu turned Lagos State into a template for other States to copy from.

According to him, “Tinubu is a detribalized Nigerian. His milestones in turning Lagos State to a cynosure of all eyes is a credit to his image. Entrust Nigeria in his hand and go to sleep. You will see wonder when you wake up.”

“Most of those castigating Tinubu have personal issues. Many are saying he is arrogant because he tells the truth.

“People may think he is arrogant because he tells the truth. Anybody who tells the truth is adjudged to be arrogant. People say I’m arrogant too. It is because I love and cherish the truth.

“Give him Nigeria to rule and go and sleep. He will do wonder before you wake up,” he said.

PRESS RELEASE

INDISCIPLINE: POLICE DISMISSES PC LIYOMO OKOI, AS IGP FROWNS AT BRUTALITY, EXTORTION, WARNS CPs, COMMANDERS TO SUPERVISE MEN

• Orders AIG FIB to Supervise IRT/STS for Effectiveness, Efficiency

The Inspector-General of Police, IGP Usman Alkali Baba, psc(+), NPM, fdc, has expressed grave disappointment at the reports of brutality and extortion leveled against some police officers via various complaint channels available to the public, particularly on social media platforms. The IGP has therefore directed all supervising Commissioners of Police and Tactical/Strategic Commanders to ensure strict supervision of their personnel as further incidences of this nature would be viewed strictly.

The IGP has also ordered a wholistic overhauling of the Intelligence Response Team (IRT), the Special Tactical Squad (STS), and the Special Weapon and Tactics (SWAT) Units to ensure that their operations are in tandem with the purpose for their creation, and maximum effectiveness and output in line with the mandate of the IGP’s administration and public safety.

The IGP has therefore directed the Assistant Inspector-General of Police in charge of the Force Intelligence Bureau (AIG-FIB) to carry out supervisory role over the three units to ensure their operations are professional, active and productive and do not infringe on the fundamental rights of the citizenry, and other members of the public.

In the same vein, the Force has dismissed Force No. 524503 PC Liyomo Okoi attached to Ekori Divisional Headquarters, Cross Rivers Police Command for gross misconduct captured in a viral video on 31st July, 2022 where he was flogging a man with a machete. His dismissal takes effect from today the 8th of August, 2022.

The Inspector-General of Police, has therefore reiterated his commitment to ethical regeneration, restoration of professional standard and enhancement of the anti-corruption drive with dedication to entrenching human rights-driven policing within the country. The IGP expressed confidence that the current overhauling will improve the effectiveness of the units, and rid them of negative elements who deviate from the standard operating procedure of the Units, and the Nigeria Police Force in general.
