Ogun traditional rulers exchange blows

From Daily Sun

The Nigeria Police Division in Itori, Ewekoro Local Government Area of Ogun State was turned into a boxing arena on Tuesday when two traditional rulers engaged each other in fisticuffs over disagreement on a cultural festival.

The two traditional rulers involved in what many have described as desecration of the Yoruba culture and tradition were Olu of Itori, Oba Akorede Akamo and Baale Lapeleke, Chief Adisa Akinremi. Daily Sun reliably gathered that Akinremi had gone to the police station to lodge complaints against Oba Akamo and the police invited the latter to defend himself. Akinremi was said to have complained about the alleged disruption of a cultural ceremony being staged by natives of a neighbouring village the night previous.

Nigeria accounts for 25% of global kidnappings – AIO

culled Punch

The African Insurance Organisation has said Nigeria accounts for a quarter of kidnap for ransom cases reported worldwide in the last one year.

The Insurance Institute of Mauritius, the official host of the 18th African Reinsurance Forum of AIO, disclosed this in its newsletter on kidnap and ransom insurance cover during the ongoing forum in Balaclava, Mauritius on Wednesday

For this reason, the insurance association said Nigeria had been designated as the global capital for kidnap for ransom due to the huge record of kidnap cases reported in the country yearly.

Delegates from different countries in Africa and across the globe attended the annual forum.

Chris Brown and Rihanna are back?

Just days after he was spotted kissing former Pussycat Dolls singer Nicole Scherzinger at a club in Los Angeles, he did the same with ex-girlfriend Rihanna in New York City and then spent time with his actual girlfriend, Karrueche Tran, the next day.

On Monday night in the Big Apple, Brown and Rihanna packed on the PDA in the middle of the busy Griffin nightclub. Sources inside the club said the two were all over each other, kissing and hugging out in the open and even disappeared together in a bathroom for 20 minutes.

Chris and Rihanna left the club separately, but hours later, Chris was spotted leaving the Gansevoort Hotel, where Rihanna was staying. And where did he head to? The hotel where his girlfriend has been staying.

Judging by Tran’s Twitter feed, it seemed like she had ended things with Brown. When one follower told her to “let it go,” she replied, “oh baby I am,” around the same time she tweeted, “there's a difference between a man and a boy.” But Brown seems to have weaseled his way back into her heart because not long after his hookup with Rihanna, Tran posted a photo of a “special delivery” sent to her hotel room: white roses, a teddy bear, and Godiva chocolates. After getting mocked by her followers for being “clowned intentionally” and a “laughing stock,” the aspiring model deleted the pic.

A local government staff of Okposi Development Centre in Ebonyi State, Chieze Nwankwo, was Tuesday, reported to have allegedly raped a 12-year-old girl, Miss Chioma Nwankwo, who resides in his compound.

Narrating her ordeal in the hands of the rapist, Miss Chioma Nwankwo explained that the accused lured her with an apple and that before she knew what was happening, he had removed her clothes and over powered her.

In her words, “When I took my bucket to fetch water at the well, Honourable Chieze called me to his house and said I should come and collect an apple. I went in to collect the apple and asked him whether he too would also eat but before I could understand what was happening, he quickly pulled off his clothes, pushed me to the ground and fell on top of me.

“I told him to get off me but he refused and I started crying but there was nobody in the compound until my mother started calling me. I told him that my mother was calling me but he refused to listen to me until my mother came and pushed the door open.

INEC’s broke, can’t pay salary – Jega

Chairman of INEC, Prof. Attahiru Jega, disclosed  to members of the House of Representatives Committee on Electoral Matters, who visited INEC headquarters in Abuja, yesterday that INEC is so broke that it may not be able to pay staff salaries from next month.

Dr. Abdulkadir Sulaiman, who represented Prof. Jega, said: “If we don’t do anything about it on time, we may not be able to pay salary by next month.”

Following this development, the chairman called on the legislators to quickly intervene and save the situation, else the commission’s aspiration of conducting the 2015 general election in line with international best practices would be a mirage.

2 policemen, another killed as robbers attack bank in Oyo

Exchange of gunshots between the police and some dare-devil armed robbers yesterday at Iseyin, Oyo State led to the death of three persons including two traffic wardens.

The robbers numbering 25 were said to have attacked  some commercial banks in the sleepy town around 9.30a.m. but were confronted by policemen.

Among the injured in the 45-minute operation was a mechanic who was said to have been hit by stray bullets.
The policemen were said to have fought the robbers to a standstill.

At the end, a robber was killed, while another one was arrested with bullet wounds.
The robbers were said to have besieged the town shooting sporadically to scare people away.
The hoodlums, before gaining entry were said to have used explosives to force the security doors open.

After this, it was gathered that customers and staff of the first generation bank were held hostage. The two traffic wardens allegedly killed  were said to be on duty at a nearby junction.
After successfully robbing the first bank, the robbers  were reportedly heading to another when the policemen confronted  them.

The police team from the area command also got one of the two vehicles used by the rampaging robbers.

Expectedly, commercial and vehicular activities were temporarily suspended as people ran for dear lives.

The robbers who escaped were said to have made away with  undisclosed amount of money from the bank.

A policeman from the state command confirmed the robbery incident but quickly added that two robbers were killed and not traffic wardens as claimed by some eye witnesses.

Troops search houses for students’ killers

Nigerian soldiers moved house to house in an urgent bid to hunt down attackers responsible for the massacre of 40 people who were shot or had their throats slit in a student housing area. The raid in the early hours of Tuesday near a polytechnic university shook the town of Mubi, located in Nigeria’s volatile northeast, where extremist group Boko Haram has carried out scores of previous attacks. 

Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan called the gruesome off-campus attack “sad and shocking” but its motives remained unclear. Police have given a death toll of 25, saying at least 22 of the victims were students. A school official said that the toll was at least 40, but could not immediately say how many were students.

How I Was Molested By Uniform Men- Actress Dorothy Njemanze

From Ladun Liadi

The actress had an encounter with some men in man-o-war uniform few days ago in Abuja, and you

just don't want to read her story. Lawless country where men in uniform are allowed to misbehave.

“On my way from the ambassador for peace beauty pageant held at the Sheraton Hotels, I decided

to check on my brother at the end of my street. I parked my car in front of Dreams Garden at the

end of my street behind one bus, and was going in to see Ugo (my brother) when a man dressed

in a man-o-war uniform appeared from nowhere and shoved me on my breasts, commanding that I

get into the bus I parked behind.

“I reprimanded him for touching my breasts but instead of apologizing, he continued to pushing

me by my breasts towards the bus, so when I couldn’t bear it anymore I pushed him too and

started running away.

Gunmen kill 22 students in Nigeria

An attack that killed 25 people, mostly students, at a Nigerian school Monday night appeared to be "an inside job" in which the gunmen called out the names of their targets, a police spokesman told CNN Tuesday. "The attackers went to the houses of the victims, called them out by their names and killed them," said Adamawa State Police spokesman Mohammed Ibrahim. "They used guns and knives on the victims." Some of the victims suffered slit throats, he said. The armed men attacked a student facility at the Federal Polytechnic, a university in Mubi, Nigeria, Nigeria's National Emergency Management Agency spokesman Yuhau Shuaib said. Among the 25 killed were 19 Federal Polytechnic students and three students from the School of Health and Technology, Ibrahim said. The three others killed were a school official, a former military man and an older gentleman, he said. Investigators are trying to determine if the attack was related to upcoming campus elections, he said. "We believe this was an inside job." "By God's grace, in the next few days we will have some suspects," he said Mubi is in northeast Nigeria near the border with Cameroon.
