The police prosecutor, Kaura Arziki, told the court that the complainant, one Kasimu Braimoh, of same address on March 3, reported at the Dutsen- Alhaji Police Station how the accused, on March 7, threatened to kill his dog whenever it goes to his house, and that when confronted, the accused repeated the same threat to him. The prosecutor further said the complainant, on the following day, discovered that his dog valued at N25,000 had been macheted and the right leg amputated. He said the accused admitted committing the act when accosted, adding that he was going to do more. When the charge was read to the accused, he pleaded guilty and was sentenced to two months’ imprisonment by the judge, Mohammed Marafa, with an option of N10,000 fine.

The Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND) has threatened to resume hostilities in the region in protest of the huge salaries and allowances of federal lawmakers. Last week, media reports had alleged that federal lawmakers would receive N9 billion wardrobe allowance this week. But Bukola Saraki, senate president, refuted the reports, stating that each lawmaker would only get a wardrobe allowance of N506, 600 per annum in line with the stipulation of the Revenue Mobilisation Allocation and Fiscal Commission (RMAFC). But Mend looks dissatisfied with the clarification and its spokesman, Jomo Gbomo, according to the an online news medium, TheCable, has threatened fire and brimstone. “These wicked individuals appropriate to themselves huge and absurd salaries and allowances at the expense of the millions of hapless Nigerians, who have not been paid for months, their salaries, pensions and other benefits they deserve,” Gbomo said. “The Niger Delta region, where the bulk of revenue that sustains the nation comes from, continues to suffer neglect, environmental degradation and lack, made worse by the very corrupt and visionless past government of Goodluck Jonathan and his cronies, some of who still shamelessly parade themselves on national television and other media platforms as ‘Niger Delta Activists’. “Nigerians refuse to tolerate this ostentatious lifestyle of our lawmakers, whose main objective, it seems, is to enrich themselves and carelessly spend scarce resources. “The Niger Delta people refuse to pamper and cater for the needs of these thieving Assembly rogues to their detriment. “If the lawmakers refuse to make the necessary adjustments needed to accompany the needs of the masses and the Niger Delta region, it may lead to the resumption of hostilities.” |

The Rivers State Government said on Sunday that 70 of the 80 persons who took contaminated local gin, also known as Ogogoro, earlier this month, died. Nnanna Onyekwere, the Director Public Health Services, Rivers Ministry of Health, told the News Agency of Nigeria in Port Harcourt on Sunday that two of the survivors had visual impairment. He said the cases were reported in Woji and Gokana communities in the state. “So far, in the past one week, we have not had any more deaths or new cases. The situation has been under control. “In the beginning, it started somewhere in Woji and by the time we had the last count, we had about 80 persons tracked down, who took the drink, out of which 70 had died. “The rest survived while two had visual impairment as a result of the drink,’’ he said. According to Mr. Onyekwere, the state government had liaised with the relevant stakeholders, especially dealers of the local gin, to educate and enlighten the people on current happenings. “The state has done so much already. We started with public enlightenment with grassroot mobilization in collaboration with the National Orientation Agency and Road Transport Workers. “Luckily, with the Federal Government’s announcement banning the gin, NAFDAC and the police are now working with us . We have achieved success in terms of control,” he said. Mr. Onyekwere said the state government had done a line listing of those affected, getting their level of disability or those who lost somebody because government wanted to assist them. (NAN)

There is a saying in my native parlance to the affect that a dog owned by the entire community usually dies of hunger. This is simply because nobody in particular would take the responsibility of feeding it. That was my first problem with President Muhammadu Buhari’s famous: “I belong to everybody, I belong to nobody.” As attractive and appealing as the statement was, I felt that it was merely targeted at the sentiments of Nigerians at least at the point it was made. And not unexpectedly, Nigerians chorused it with enthusiasm. But for purposes of partisan tenacity, I felt the statement was not only too open ended and populist, it was also fraught with danger, especially as it is not in sync with partisan idiosyncrasy. Of course, skeptics took their positions and it was not long when the first salvo came. The president was accused of plagiarising the statement. The “I belong...” jargon that was contained in his inauguration speech was said not to be original to him but lifted from an earlier saying by another famous man outside this clime. Pronto, the president’s “enemies” (really, does he have any?) had a field day through the social media. The plagiarism charge seems to have been settled in favour of the president but my worry now is that so early enough, we are seeing the other side, if you like, the real implications of the “I belong to nobody…..” mantra. For, shortly after that ‘wise’ saying, President Buhari, oven-fresh and draped in magisterial aura conferred on him for “defeating a sitting president”, the first in Africa, headed for Germany to attend the 41st summit of the G7. There, according to reports, the Nigerian president, to the astonishment of the whole world, alluded to Germany, the host of the summit, as “West Germany”; and to the head of government (state) of Germany as “President”. President Buhari was also said to have wrongly pronounced the name of the Chancellor of Germany as “Mitchele” instead of Merkel, Angela Merkel, that is. Again, the presidents ‘enemies’ went to town through the social media. Understandably, not much mention has been made of the gaffes in the local print media and I am personally of the view that as grave as the slips are, there is no need crying over spilled milk. Fortunately, Nigerians so love their president that they were quick in laying the blames on the door steps of his handlers, some say aides. Did they (aides) brief him properly? Was there a pre-summit debriefing between the president and his handlers? Did his aides or handlers take pain to understand that at his age (72), the president is not supposed to be conversant with the tittles and proper names of heads of state of other countries? To avoid a reoccurrence in the future, some analysts say the president should take a briefing on global etiquettes. Others suggest that he should be shielded from unnecessary (global) exposure. On the latter option, Nigerians, they say, elected Buhari for just one reason: to fight corruption and that as such, he has no business cat-walking on the runaways of every international airport. President Buhari, they say, should get into the trenches to deal with corrupt Nigerians instead of making every international summit. Witness the bizarre counsels to the leader of Africa’s most important country and Africa’s largest economy, indeed Africa’s most populous nation in the proportion of three Nigerians in every five Africans. In my view, such counseling is coming because Nigerians were dazed by the presidential slips but that does not warrant the resort to presidential recoil. Of course, Nigeria must continue to showcase our handsome president with the great poise. I am sure every Nigerian was quite proud to see President Buhari in the crowd of other world leaders, his magisterial gait and elegance. There was this particular photograph, where the president was alighting from an open vehicle and I recall one lady saying “Wao, this president!” On a more serious note, however, Nigerians are willing to give a pass mark to President Buhari on the things he has done so far at the domestic front. At least his attitude to the issue of the emergence of principal officers of the 8th National Assembly gives him not less than a B+. Still, go to the international arena, he must. There are so many things to go and talk about abroad. For one, the nation’s economy is so bad that it needs no exaggeration to state that Nigeria needs a bail out from the international community at least for the next one or two years. And it is not what the president can do from Daura. So, while I disagree that the president should stay put at home and like in 1984 begin to put former governors to jail, there is one thing he must do: he should repudiate the “I belong to Nobody” mantra. In my view, President Buhari has to belong to somebody; not, of course, to Asiwaju Bola Tinubu as in being commonly feared. President Buhari has to make himself available. He has to work with Nigerians. Of course, I disagree with those, who blame his aides. With my little exposure to top political office holders, most principals get only the advice or assistance they want to have. Most principals, in the Nigerian context, put up body language that freezes all good intentions from their aides. I hear the president is an easy going man but my fear is that he may still be operating with the same mind set as when he was running for his present office. Majority of Nigerians saw him as stand-offish and a fellow with a “you-can-go-to-hell” disposition. An example was when the issue of his academic certificate arose. Yes, the election was won and lost but the truth is that Nigerians did not like the seeming arrogance with which he handled the matter. He had referred INEC officials to the military authorities when the latter asked for his academic credentials. Granted that Nigerians did not buy the talk that he had no certificate to show, not a few were piqued by that attitude because that was another way of telling Nigerians that he owed them no explanation. My hunch is that President Buhari might not have asked his handlers for a pre-summit briefing. To be quite candid, I do not buy the idea that he should not at his age bother about certain things. For goodness’ sake, he now has to. In my article, titled “Igbo Did Not Make a Mistake on 2015”, which was published a few days after the presidential election, I argued that most Igbo did not vote for the then president-to-be because he was not properly presented to them. General Muhammadu Buhari (GMB then) now President Muhammadu Buhari (PMB), as some newspapers now write, was wrongly packaged: as a religious fanatic, a Boko Haram supporter and a fellow, who did not possess the minimum educational requirement for the office he was looking for. Going by his body language then, it seemed all that did not matter to the then GMB. Now as PMB, my fear is that he is yet to believe that he has to make himself to be truly or better understood by the people. His fabled anti-corruption disposition notwithstanding, President Buhari has to know that what he can achieve in that regard will be largely dependent on the extent Nigerians understand him. “I belong to nobody…” is too vague for the social and economic milieu Nigerians currently finds themselves in.

Two suspected cultists were killed, while 10 others sustained injuries, when two rival cult groups clashed at Nkpor community, near Onitsha in Anambra State on Saturday. Mr Hassan Musa, the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) in-charge of Ogidi Divisional Police Headquarters, confirmed the incident in an interview with newsmen. Musa said before the joint team of the mobile policemen and the Police Anti-Cult Squad could reach the scene, along the Nkpor-Obosi Road, two unidentified persons were already killed. He, however, said that bodies of the deceased were taken away by their cult members to avoid identification and possible trace by the police, adding that police were investigating the incident. An official of the Department of State Services, (DSS), who spoke on condition of anonymity, said the bloody clash occurred between the Aiye confraternity and their Akpa rival. The source said the intervention of the police at the scene prevented the situation from further degeneration. “It is not possible to ascertain whether the deceased members and the injured ones were from only one cult group or from both sides. However, those whose members were killed ensured that they took their corpses away before the arrival of the Police Anti-cult Squad and Mobile police,’’ he said. Cause of the clash is yet to be ascertained by the police, who are still investigating the incident. (NAN) |
The FCT Criminal Investigative operatives last week busted a notorious ‘one chance’ criminal syndicate while perfecting plans for an operation. A police source told City News that the syndicate specialises in luring their victims feigning to have large sum of dollars in their vehicle and in need of idea on what to do with it. It was gathered that hours before their planned operation, police patrol team attached to Garki division arrested one of the suspects after dispossessing his victim of her handbag, handsets and the sum of N12,200. A knife was said to have been recovered from him as exhibit. “He made confessional statements regarding their mode of operation and said they specialised in lying to their victims by telling them they were carrying millions in the trunk of their car and that they would need some money to spiritually neutralise the money from any curse that is on it. He confessed that so many people have fallen victims, especially married women,” the source said. When contacted, FCT Police Public Relations Officer, Assistant Superintendent Anjuguri Manzah, confirmed the arrest, saying one Mazda 626 was recovered from them. He said the FCT Commissioner of Police has ordered an immediate investigation into the matter and the arrest of other suspects. The FCT police spokesperson also said that same day, acting on tip off, police patrol team arrested three suspects in connection with the theft of iron doors at Gwarinpa. |
A 60-year-old woman, Mrs. Kate Njoku, was on Wednesday remanded in prison custody by an Akure chief magistrate’s court over fraud. Mrs Njoku was docked on a five-count charge of forgery. She was accused of committing the offence with other suspects now at large. The prosecutor, Adejuwon Akinpelumi, told the count that the offence is contrary to section 464(C) and punishable under section 467(2)(g) of the Criminal Code, cap 37, laws of Ondo State of Nigeria, 2006. Akinpelumi also told the court that the offence was committed at various times on May 19 and June 9 at the Union Bank Plc in Akure, the state capital. The prosecutor said the accused falsely represented herself as Iroha M.A. before the cashiers of Union Bank Plc with a forged bank note withdrawal slip of the same bank with intent to defraud the bank. He added that Njoku was arrested when she fraudulently converted the sum of N1.678 million to her own use, being the money entrusted into the care of the Union Bank Plc. The accused person, however, pleaded not guilty to the charges. Chief Magistrate, Sunday Adedapo, ordered the accused to be remanded in Olokuta prison in Akure, while the case was adjourned to June 22, 2015 . |
