EducationLagos School Turns Brothel by Controversy(op): 9:01am On Jul 06, 2013
A school that was turned into a brothel where hoodlums pay guards to allow them have sex with their female companions at night has been raided by Taskforce on Environmental and Special Offences (Enforcement) Unit, in Lagos State, southwest Nigeria.
During the raid, two guards at the school, Ilupeju Grammar School, located at Ilupeju in Oshodi, were arrested and charged to court in connection with their alleged despicable roles in the matter.
P.M.NEWS investigations revealed that the two guards, 60-year old Mr. Julius Okenla, and 45-year old Mr. Adebowale Adeloye, were accused of allowing hoodlums to sleep with their female friends in the school after they had allegedly been paid.

It was gathered that hoodlums who want to sleep in the school pay between N200 and N300 to the guards, while those with female companions pay N700 to be allowed to sleep in the school to have sex.
At the Special Court in Alausa where the guards were arraigned, they pleaded not guilty to the charge brought against them and were granted bail in the sum of N50,000 each, plus two sureties each who must have evidence of three years tax payment.
They were sent to Ikoyi Prison pending when they will meet the bail conditions.
Taskforce Chairman, Bayo Sulaiman, a Chief Superintendent of Police, said some of the hoodlums not only paid money to the security guards to be allowed to sleep inside the school but also vandalized the school’s property.
He said school authorities had been complaining that hoodlums messed up their schools and excrete on students’ lockers, adding that such things might be happening in other schools where touts pay money to sleep in them and carry out their nefarious activities.
Speaking with P.M NEWS in his office Thursday, the Principal of Ilupeju Grammar School, Odi-Olowo Local Council Development Area, Lagos, Otunba Y.O. Bashorun, said he cannot say categorically that the guards were collecting money from miscreants to sleep within the school premises since he did not catch them red-handed.
“Could you believe that we have just two security men as big as this school is? One for morning and another one for night duty. What can one person do in the midst of multitude? In fact, we usually pay the good ones among the touts to help assist them while on duty.
“What we want now is for the government to come to our aid. This environment is not conducive for learning. We are surrounded by motor parks and touts. Opposite us is Ilupeju park, behind us is Ibadan park. They always disturb us with their blaring loud speakers while soliciting for passengers..
“If you go round the school, you will see what I am talking about. Touts usually scale the fence to gain entrance into the premises. Some parts of the wall have even been broken by these people. If you wait till about 6-7.p.m., you will see them coming in.”
According to him, “weekend is the worst. You will see them washing their clothes by the school tap and they will dry it on the school wall. Sometimes if I come to do some work here on Saturdays, I  have to lock myself up in this office because I don’t want anybody to come and attack me.
“By Monday morning, the classrooms would have been littered with faeces, urine an all sorts of dirt. Some danfo (commuter bus) drivers even park their vehicles in this compound without the consent of the school authorities. What they do is that they park the buses late in the night and remove them early in the morning.”
Bashorun further said: “I so much like what happened. It will send a signal to the miscreants that it is not going to be business as usual in this school premises. The era of coming here to pass the night and wash their clothes in the school premises has gone. In fact, some of them have even fled.
“What we want now is that the state government should come to our rescue and make this environment conducive for learning. All the students see everyday are different forms of social vices which is not okay for their learning experience. We need tough, well trained security personnel and not old men like we used to have before.”

Nairaland GeneralLand Speculators (omo Nile) In Lagos Risk 3 Years Jail by Controversy(op): 7:50am On Jul 05, 2013
EROMOSELE EBHOMELE

If the bill being considered by the Lagos State House of Assembly, southwest Nigeria scales through, then the activities of land speculators and grabbers, locally called omo-onile in the state, would be banned with a three-year jail term or a fine of N300, 000 slammed on anybody who parades himself as one.

The Lagos State Properties Protection Bill 2013, which contains the punishment, also states that it would be a crime for anyone to trespass or forcefully occupy any landed property that does not belong to him.

The bill seeking to regulate the forceful takeover of landed properties, a major problem to land ownership in the state, scaled the second reading on the floor of the House on Thursday.

The private-member bill also stipulates that anyone found with fire arms, weapons or chemical material with the intent to forcefully takeover any land would face death sentence.

To make the law effective when passed, a special offence court would be established to try any person found guilty, while any one who contravenes.

Speaking on the advantages of the bill, Chairman Committee on Lands and Housing, Bayo Osinowo, said if the bill is eventually passed, it would address so many atrocities committed by land grabbers in the State.

According to Osinowo, 60 percent of Certificate of Occupancy (C of O) in the State are fake just as he said that the bill will also correct such anomalies when passed.

“In Lagos State, land is our major resource. It is our petrol compared to the oil producing states in the country; therefore nothing done will be too much to protect its sanctity,” he said.

Members unanimously supported the bill saying it would assist the State’s desire for peace and unity.

Speaking in favour of the bill also, Osinowo’s colleague, Sanai Agunbiade, explained that the bill would take care of land agents who parade themselves and seize the position to take landed properties forcefully.

He said: “the bill would prevent the so-called ‘omo-onile’ from potential buyers before or during construction work.”

He further explained that the bill would prevent anyone, who without lawful authority, uses or threatens violence for the purpose of securing entry into any landed property for himself or for any other person.

The bill has been committed to the Committees on Lands and Housing as well as Judiciary, Human Rights and Public Petitions to look into it and report back in a month.

Controversy: BY BARTHOLOMEW MADUKWE
LAGOS — A 30-year-old woman, Precious Adebayo, yesterday, narrated how she escaped from a suspected ritualist, Taiwo Balogun, who disguised as a commercial bus driver.
Precious toldVanguardthat at about 8 p.m. on June 5, 2013, she boarded a commercial bus at Iyana Orile bus stop in Orile Agege Local Council Development Area, LCDA.
According to her, “it was raining at the time. The bus driver (Balogun) was alone in the bus when I flagged him down and told him I was going to Iyana Ipaja.
“He stopped, picked me and sped off. On getting to Mobil petrol station on Old Ipaja road, just before the Lagos State exams board office, beside NYSC camp, he told me that because of the heavy traffic at the Iyana Ipaja under bridge, hewanted to go through some inner streets through Orile Agege LCDA office at Arigbanla.He said he would come out closeto Iyana Ipaja through Aboru junction and I agreed.”
Precious said she became apprehensive when it took the driver several minutes navigating through inner streets without emerging anywhere.
According to her, “I complained that I was afraid as I no longer understood where we were and where the driver was heading to.I, therefore, told him to drop meso that I could find my way out to Iyana Ipaja bus stop.
“But he reassured me that we would soon emerge at the expressway where I will disembark. Shortly after this, the driver suddenly stopped in adark corner and told me that he wanted to pick up something.
“He then came down, entered the vehicle from behind and grabbed me on the throat in a bid to choke me. I struggled to free myself but he held me tightly. He hit my face, head andnose with a wheel spanner and inflicted grievous injuries on myface and head.”
Precious said the suspected ritualist attempted to slit her throat and cut off her breast, saying: “He used knife in trying to cut my neck but did not succeed. He even tried to cut mybreast, but God rescued me. This happened at Canal, near Pleasure, after Sawmill.”
Vanguardgathered that luck ranout on the suspect when his vehicle failed to start. And within that time Precious regained some strength, pushed open the bus door and screamedfor help, which attracted people in the neighbourhood. When thedriver noticed that people were coming towards them, he abandoned his bus and Precious.
However, the matter was reported to a police team at Iyana Ipaja under bridge who then radioed Elere police station, Agege. Officers from Elere Police Station then took Precious to the scene of the crime in the night and people in the neighbourhood deflated the four tyres of the bus.
Balogun was apprehended around 1:00 am the following morning, as he came back to stealthily remove his bus (unknown to him that the case had been reported to the police).
The case has subsequently been transferred to the Lagos State Criminal Investigation Department, Panti Yaba, where the suspect is undergoing further interrogation.

ABEOKUTA — The embattled Olofin of Ado-Odo in Ado-Odo-Ota Local Government Area of Ogun State,  Oba Abdul Lateef   Adeniran, who was beaten by hoodlums,  broke his silence, yesterday,  saying  the hoodlums that attacked him attempted to rape his wife while his crown and other valuables were stolen.

Oba Akanni,  who appeared before the Judicial Commission of Inquiry into the crisis that sat in Isabo, Abeokuta,  also lamented that a sum of  N1.5 million  kept in his palace as at the time of the incident was  stolen by the hoodlums who burnt down his palace.

The monarch was beaten by yet to be identified  hoodlums in the area before  his palace was  set ablaze  during an attack that occurred April 15, 2013.

Consequently, the  state  government set up a judicial commission to look into the crisis and come up with recommendation to the government.

The monarch  while giving a  graphic detail of how he was attacked, said, “I was   beaten with charms on that day and I would have been dead by now if not for the grace of God.”

.
Lol Abiola is a true definition of yoruba man cowardice, a man who fought the military without throwing a punch not even knockout in his backyard. Abiola died because he refused to fight on the fear that he will be killed and later still die like fowl inside cage
Abiola death was payment for his evil deeds that's a divine recompense for his alleged political misdeeds so he died a shameful death
Remember maroko land deal against his fellow yoruba man (Obafemi Awolowo)
Remember 1983 coup against ShehuShagari and his many other sins

PoliticsAbiola The Philanthropist And Hate From His Own People by Controversy(op): 8:05am On Jun 12, 2013
There has never been a
philanthropist on the scale of
MKO Abiola in the history of
Nigeria. His oft-repeated life’s
ambition was to touch the life of
every Nigerian one way or
another.
In
March 1990, he donated N1m
(equivalent of N40 million in
2010) to each State University,
N50,000 (N2 million in 2010)
to each Federal University for
student welfare, N20,000
(N800,000 in 2010) to the
libraries of each Federal
University and N25,000 (N1
million in 2010) to each
Polytechnic and College of
Education. He is credited with
the construction of 63
secondary schools and 41
libraries. He established Abiola
Bookshops to provide
affordable, locally produced
textbooks in the 1980s when
imported textbooks became out
of the reach of ordinary
Nigerians when the Naira was
devalued.
He awarded over 1,000
scholarships to deserving
students in tertiary institutions
at home and abroad. In addition
those awarded by the Federal
Government, MKO Abiola
awarded bursaries to every
single student from Ogun State.
For every N500 they received
from the Federal government,
they received N250 from MKO
Abiola. To delve into his
contributions in sports, culture
and welfare would turn this
letter into a thesis. In politics as
in philanthropy, he is
unequalled. He broke tribal and
religious barriers to a clear
victory.
He chose the path of valour and
fought for the collective will of
Nigerians from the four corners
of this nation and everywhere in
between. He willingly returned
from exile, knowing the
consequences of that action,
prepared to pay with his life.
The circumstances of his death
shook the polity to its
foundations and established the
democracy we enjoy today, by
far the longest period of rule by
the people in our history.
He lost his wife, the late Alhaja
Kudirat Abiola, his businesses
were decimated yet he
voluntarily stayed in detention,
rejecting conditional release. He
died refusing to betray the
mandate given to him by those
who betray his memory today.
No honour is too great for one
of the men and women who laid down their lives for the
democracy we enjoy today, that enables some to take to the streets, uttering irresponsible, abhorrent nonsense.
We take a leaf from your book
and illustrate the line “help our
youth the truth to know”. The
government of Egypt named a
school after him in appreciation
of his contribution after a
devastating earthquake.
Egyptians did not take to the
street yet to their eternal shame, some people in Lagos did. But as the great man would say, as one is crying one should still see. The machinations and motives of those sponsoring the
protests are obvious.
If thirteen years of deafening
silence from the Federal
Government built on the blood
of this man could not diminish
his legacy, the actions of a few
hooligans and rascals with no
sense of history will certainly
not. All glory and honour reside
in the hands of the Almighty
Allah, a righteous judge.
MKO Abiola will not be denied.
We now turn to those groups
who feel that their positions
have been threatened by an
unprecedented act of grace by
Your Excellency and urge them
to desist. The general elections
are three years away. There is
no need for blind panic or for
using MKO Abiola’s name and
the larger issue of June 12th to
score cheap political points
against the ruling party. We
urge them to focus on the task
of national and regional
development. We assure you of
our support of any decision you
take in this matter. We had no
expectation of your gracious
gesture and neither did MKO
Abiola.
He was driven by his love for
Nigeria, not by the anticipation
of honours. The few words you
spoke provided justice and
peace. No “masthead” can ever
do that. We are satisfied and we
are appreciative. You have acted
as one who fears God and seeks
to lead in justice and truth
according to His will. In the
final analysis and in view of the
fickleness and short memory of
some “students”, that is all that
matters.
We conclude with the assurance
that your honouree would not
be disturbed by this furore were
he alive to witness it. When we
would tell him we don’t like his
nickname of Father Christmas
and ask him why he gives so
much, he would say that he is
not doing it for the people but
for Allah and that if he helps a
thousand people and only one
remembers that’s enough for
him. It is enough for us too as is
the certain fact that in due
course, each of us will go where
MKO Abiola has gone and leave
children behind.

Madam_oringo did Igbos hate your hero more than your elders even at point of his deathhuh
*********Lagos—Major Hamza Al-Mustapha, former Chief Security Officer (CSO) to the late Head of State, Sani Abacha, made startling disclosures in court on Monday on how Abacha and Moshood Abiola were killed in 1998.
He said former Head of State, Abdulsalami Abubakar, offered huge sums of money to Yoruba leaders to appease them over Abiola's death.
Abacha died on June 8, 1998, and Abiola, winner of the Presidential election held on June 12, 1993, died in incarceration on July 7, 1998.
Al-Mustapha, who is standing trial over alleged complicity in the murder of Abiola's wife, Kudirat, on June 4, 1996 said he has been incarcerated since 1998 because of the top secret in his possession.
He opened his defence before Justice Mojisola Dada of the Lagos High Court, where he accused Abdulsalami of masterminding his perpetual detention.
Al-Mustapha - led in evidence by his lawyer, Olalekan Ojo - broke down in tears when he told the court that he has both audio and video evidence on how Abacha and Abiola were murdered.
He said Abdulsalami is living in fear that he would divulge information, hence the man wants him to spend the rest of his life behind bars.
His words: "In the course of this testimony, I wish to say that I will omit any issue that will affect the national security of the country as a serving officer of the Nigerian Army.
"My incarceration was as a result of a script written and acted out by (Abdulsalami) to further keep me in prison.
"First, were the events that happened after the murder of (Abacha) and (Abiola). For fear that I may divulge information that led to their death; they have to keep me in prison."
Al-Mustapha, who told the court that he was enlisted in the Army in 1980, said he served in various units before his appointment as Abacha's CSO.
According to him, there is documentary evidence that after the death of Abiola, Abubakar allegedly ordered that various sums of money be withdrawn from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), including $200 million,75 million, and N500 million to appease South West leaders and douse tension.

The true lovers of Abiola
****** Dr. Ore Falomo, who was personal physician and confidant of winner of the June 12, 1993 presidential election, late Chief Moshood Abiola, in interview with punch news paper*****
Punch news: Is it true that some Yoruba
leaders betrayed Abiola?
Dr Falomo: They did so initially because
they believed that Abiola would
not get acceptance from the
Awolowo camp. Abiola was
NPN before, he then changed
camp to UPN. Abiola belonged
to the NPN, he gave more
money to the NPN and donated
a little to UPN. People advised
Awolowo to return the money to
Abiola querying why he gave
some much to NPN. However,
some Awoists thought it was
wrong to have returned that
money. Because we all knew
how UPN was getting money
then, it was from states
controlled by them. It is the
same thing that Action
Congress of Nigeria is doing.
They learnt it from the
Awolowo group. I was not only
Abiola's doctor; I was his friend,
confidant and in-law. When the
election was near, we told
Abiola to go and see Mama
Awolowo and also Arthur
Nzeribe, because was one
politician in Igboland that had
won his constituency
repeatedly. He visited Nzeribe
first, and Nzeribe was very
happy and pledged to work very
hard for him. When he landed
in Lagos, we drove straight to
Mama, and we arrived there
just before dinner. He
prostrated and said he would
not get up until Mama said she
forgiven him from the bottom of
her heart. Mama forgave him. If
you remember, Abiola won
Ogun State 97 per cent. Nobody
has ever done that, not even
Awolowo. He confounded those
Yoruba Obas. Those people
went to Babangida, who likes to
divide and rule, to put obstacles
in Abiola's way. When I was
arguing with one of those
people, he said Babangida told
him how much the Federal
Government owed Abiola, and
said what else did Abiola want?

Punch news: Is it true that some Yoruba
leaders betrayed Abiola?
Dr Falomo: They did so initially because
they believed that Abiola would
not get acceptance from the
Awolowo camp. Abiola was
NPN before, he then changed
camp to UPN. Abiola belonged
to the NPN, he gave more
money to the NPN and donated
a little to UPN. People advised
Awolowo to return the money to
Abiola querying why he gave
some much to NPN. However,
some Awoists thought it was
wrong to have returned that
money. Because we all knew
how UPN was getting money
then, it was from states
controlled by them. It is the
same thing that Action
Congress of Nigeria is doing.
They learnt it from the
Awolowo group. I was not only
Abiola's doctor; I was his friend,
confidant and in-law. When the
election was near, we told
Abiola to go and see Mama
Awolowo and also Arthur
Nzeribe, because was one
politician in Igboland that had
won his constituency
repeatedly. He visited Nzeribe
first, and Nzeribe was very
happy and pledged to work very
hard for him. When he landed
in Lagos, we drove straight to
Mama, and we arrived there
just before dinner. He
prostrated and said he would
not get up until Mama said she
forgiven him from the bottom of
her heart. Mama forgave him. If
you remember, Abiola won
Ogun State 97 per cent. Nobody
has ever done that, not even
Awolowo. He confounded those
Yoruba Obas. Those people
went to Babangida, who likes to
divide and rule, to put obstacles
in Abiola's way. When I was
arguing with one of those
people, he said Babangida told
him how much the Federal
Government owed Abiola, and
said what else did Abiola want?

soyad: The problem we have in this country is that we have a group of people who do not think alike . Some are progressive minded while the others are either ethnic or tribal jingoist . For anybody to denounce the intelligence of Wole Soyinka is complete lunancy.

Sentimental about what ? OBJ handed over to shagari in 1979 and that day didn't earn the title of democracy day,what's special about May 29 when Abdul salam handed over to him ? Did you know how many igbos and northerners including yorubas that die because of June 12 ? Well I won't blame you lots,you lacked knowledge of history possibly you weren't even born then and was only being told what happened but your in-born hatred for yorubas won't let you learn from history.
We have had you!

An 11-year-old girl, Chinecherem from Uruagu Nnewi, Anambra State who was allegedly raped by a 32-year-old son of her mistress is reportedly died.
Chinecherem, an orphan and the only surviving child of her parents, according to the source, was raped in the night by her mistress’s son on May 27, 2013 at Uruezi Egbema Ozubulu in Ekwusigo Local Government Area where she was serving as a maid.
Daily Sun was informed that on the night of the incident, the victim’s madam had travelled out leaving Chinecherem and her son to take careof the house.
“When Ifeanyi defiled her, she started bleeding in the morning. Theboy disappeared after raping Chinemerem and it was his father (Ifeanyi’s father) who discovered thatsomething was wrong in the morning and took the little girl to a hospital, where she was crying in agony, touching her private part before she gave up on June 3, 2013,” the source said.
The source said that hospital authorities confirmed that there was a lot of semen deposited in her private part. The victim was said to have lived with the family for seven years and had taken her common entrance to enter junior secondary school before she met her death.
When contacted, the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) of the Anambra State Police Command, Awka, Mr. Emeka Chukwuemeka confirmed the incident and said investigation was still ongoing while the suspect is still at large.
