AN ILLEGAL NIGERIAN NATIONAL SENTENCED TO FOUR LIFE AND 18 YEARS IMPRISONMENT FOR RAPE AND HUMAN TRAFFICKING.

The Pretoria High Court sentenced a Nigerian national, Jude Ikenna Ijegulu (34), from Centurion to two life terms for two counts of human trafficking, two life terms for two counts of rape, six years direct imprisonment for two counts of keeping a brothel, ten years direct imprisonment for using services of a victim of trafficking and two years direct imprisonment for being illegal in the country.

The court ordered that his name be added to the National Register of Sexual Offenders.

Ijegulu was running a brothel with his partner Botes in Centurion when he fetched a 26-year-old complainant in the matter from Rustenburg, where she was held captive and supplied with drugs by unknown Nigerian nationals.

On their way to the brothel, Ijegulu stopped at a friend’s house near his brothel, when they arrived at the house, Ijegulu followed the complainant to the bathroom where he raped her.

In a separate incident, Ijegulu bought a second complainant in the matter who was 22 years old at the time from another Nigerian national McDonald in Rustenburg and also took her to the brothel under the impression that she would be working as a housekeeper.

Both complainants were held captive between November 2016, to September 2017. During that time, the two were raped, supplied with drugs, physically and sexually assaulted by Ijegulu. Botes and Ijegulu also instructed the victims to render sexual services to clients. On 18 September 2017 while Ijegulu was sleeping the two victims escaped from the brothel. After their escape, they contacted an NGO which provides shelter for trafficked persons.

The NGO fetched the two women from where they were hiding and assisted them with shelter. Later the women reported the matter to the police. On 16 July 2018, Ijegulu was arrested by police after he was lured into meeting up with one of the victims in Centurion.

A month later on 18 August 2018, Botes was arrested at a property Ijegulu was renting also in Centurion after an informant provided the address to the police. In court, both Ijegulu and Botes pleaded not guilty to all charges preferred against them.

Through his legal representative, Ijegulu asked the court not to impose the prescribed minimum sentences on the charges preferred against him because he is a first offender, and the victims were in a homely environment in his house. He further added that the victims were already addicted to drugs and that the court should consider that he has been in custody since his arrest in 2018. Furthermore, Botes also asked the court to deviate from the prescribed minimum sentence on the charges preferred against her and said she committed the offences because she was influenced and controlled by Ijegulu because of her drug addiction and trauma. However, a team of prosecutors Advocate Adina Van Deventer and Advocate Alicia Ross, asked the court not to deviate from the prescribed minimum sentence in respect of the two accused, because they showed no remorse for their actions. They further argued that Ijegulu fed the two women drugs for him to control them and for them to comply with his orders. Furthermore, the complainants did not have a choice when it came to having sex with him as he was the master of the house. In respect of Botes the two prosecutors further argued that Botes was the “wife” of Ijegulu and took the money that they earned from running the brothel.

America is so stupid, they're turning themselves, on their own, into isolationism.

Russia will replace America and as you all know, since the Libya war where Russia and France, along with UAE and Israel and Egypt "were in one team" got split up, they're at each others throats today over Palestine
.
Putin never spoke with Netanyahu after the Libya war again, never. If the US does this, they'll leave Africa completely for Russia

France and Macron are already fuming for losing grip over it, Russia will fill the vacuum, Ukraine war becoming even harder if not already lost thus, exposing US and NATO as impotent military allies.

For fck scales, do you even know what you're witnessing? The birth of a multipolar world order and Palestine will be in it

America will invade and colonise South America and that's where their influence will be relegated to.

With Jews , you always lose.

The LGBTQ madness is led by Jews

They are a cancer to humanity.

Well, Americans fought Germany so that Jews can rule the planet.

America is the foot stool of Satan and israhell is his throne.

The same political alliance beggars and sudden lovers of the south-south are posting these tweets 🤦🏾‍♂️. Go to their pages and see that they're all Tinubu Supporters.

Do these Tinubu Supporters know they are calling in the Nigeria military to kill innocent people? They have started deleting their posts after goofing.

This same people were all mute when bandits brought down a helicopter and killed our gallant soldiers? The military only mourned and said they will go after the bandits. Why are Tinubu Supporters this wicked and calling for the razing of a South South community?

Yes, what the criminals did to the ambushed soldiers is wrong. But does two wrongs make a right?

Rest in Peace to our gallant soldiers.

The Japanese Toyota, for instance is one of the most popular automobiles in North America. That's 10,000 miles from Japan. I'm sure you own one or two Japanese products in your home. That's how races with high IQ prosper.

The question is, imagine Japan is under your one naijiriya?!

I read about the former US Secretary of State, Henry Kessinger describing the Ibos as the Jews of Africa due to their higher intelligence than most black tribes. I also read about European countries telling Biafran delegations that they prefer supporting Nigeria during the Nigerian-Biafran war simply because "another Japan in Africa would not favour Europe." Despite the high intelligence and industry of the Ibos, I do not subscribe to the notion that Ibos are or would have become the Japan of Africa despite accomplishing technological feats that Nigeria cannot accomplish today during the short-lived Biafra. Here are my reasons:

1) Japan was never colonized by the European but Ibos were. The simple reason why no European country was bold enough to fight to conquer Japan is that the Japanese saw ahead of the Ibos. By late 16th Century, a Japanese Shogungate bought a few guns from the Portuguese. By 1700s, Japan had more guns than most European countries because they simply learned how to make guns and made more guns than the Europeans who initially sold guns to them.

2) By 1600s, less than 200 years after the Japanese met the Europeans, Ibos also had guns they probably bought from the Europeans, but 200 years later, unlike the Japanese, the Ibos had not made enough guns to deter European colonialists. In fact, around this period, the Japanese completely closed their country to the Europens and would only trade for guns. This was a time the Ibo country was being exploited even for manpower - slaves, by the Europeans. I remember reading about the Portuguese ambassador to Japan telling the king of Portugal (while describing Japan and their insistence on trading only for guns) that "This is not Africa." This points to the fact that Africans are significantly of lower intelligence than the Japanese, and Ibos are not excluded.

3) As probably the most intelligent tribe in Africa, I believe that the Ibos were best positioned to stop the colonialist (British, French and Germans) if they had foresight like the Japanese and insisted on trading for guns and using their local technology to mass produce it just as they did during the war with Nigeria, unfortunately they could not and had to fight the British for nearly 30 years as underdogs. Granted, they were probably the only tribe that had the pride to fight in present-day Nigeria, but fighting and losing isn't enough. They could have done more through deterrrence were they actually like the Japanese.

4) In essence, there is no taking from the Ibos their high intelligence par African level, but it is mere wishful thinking to claim that Ibos or Biafra would have become the Japan of Africa. Maybe they'd have become close to Singapore, but not exactly like Japan. If Ibos are like Japan, they shouldn't have been colonized and African blacks would have had respect among other races for producing one of the two nations that were never colonized in Africa.

Are Ibos like the Japanese? Maybe. Are they the Japan of Africa? No.

Tinubu: I Honestly Don't Know Why The Southeast Is Quiet; Uncharacteristically Quiet - According to Professor Usman
Traditional leaders from the country’s north have been discussing the continued hardships, which include food insecurity and other issues, in recent weeks.

In the midst of all of that, Professor Usman was asked why the North and South West have been the regions that have spoken out the most during his discussion of the state of the economy on Arise News.

Surprisingly, the South East and South-South have been quiet, and if there could be a reason for that, and if the agitation for better governance continues through the North and South West, will there be a political implication for the president?

Responding to that question, the former executive secretary, NHIS, Professor Usman Yusuf said, “I honestly don’t know why the Southeast is quite, uncharacteristically quiet, but then, the president needs to find out. The North is where I know I live, and the silence in the North is more literal than the noise anywhere else in the country”.

Perfect narration, Zelenskyy should have known better

hardewalleh:
Zelensky is so unwise.
Any negotiations will be based on the reality on ground and cities that fell will be part of Russia forever.

He shouldn’t have agreed to discard the agreement after Putin told troops to pull out of Kiev (after Istanbul talk in March 2022 immediately after the breakout of the War).

It is what it is. His name will go down as the worst Ukrainian President.
