Busola Dakolo, wife of singer, Timi Dakolo, has
given an update on her r*pe case against
clergyman, Biodun Fatoyinbo.

Recall that in June 2019, she publicly accused
the clergyman of violently raping her when she
was a teenager and was worshipping in his
church in Kwara state. She filed a suit against
him but it was thrown out by the court.

In an update posted this afternoon on her
Instagram page, Busola shared a copy of the
letter she received from the police stating they
have completed investigations into the case and
have forwarded the case file to the Director of
Public Prosecution of the Federation (DPPP) for
legal advice and further necessary action.

She alleged the Ministry of Justice has since
received the case file for Fatoyinbo's
prosecution but has remained silent. She said
her team has sent a letter to the Ministry of
Justice over a month ago but no response yet.
Read the letter from the police sent to her and
her post below

''It is now officially one year after since I came
out and told the most important story of my
life up until this point. That when I was a
teenager, Biodun Fatoyinbo violently raped me.

It wasn’t just me. In the media, on social
platforms and in private, women have been
sharing stories of how this man either
destroyed their lives or tried to.

A lot has happened in that time: and my heart
is glad that consciousness continues to be
raised about the great evil that sexual abuse is,
and how widespread it is, and how much
women are at risk, and why we need to ensure
justice for those who find the strength to speak
out.

Awareness is victory. But we are pushing to
another even great victory: Justice.

When the courts last year decided to rule in
favour of the man who assaulted me, people
were crestfallen. I understood.

What they didn’t know however is that before
we even began, we had been prepared for a
long haul battle that may take years because
the Nigerian legal system isn’t wired to help
sexual abuse victims get justice.

Today, I have a major update. The police has
concluded its investigation. And handed over its
report to the Ministry of Justice in Abuja for
onward prosecution of Biodun Fatoyinbo. He
clearly has a case to answer.

But there has been silence from the ministry.
Silence. A loud silence!

We have written a letter but for over a month
we have no response.

Instead, my lawyers and my family have heard
about all manner of manipulation and foul play
being attempted to stop the ministry from
beginning prosecution immediately.

Or even to get the police report
manipulated.

My name is Busola Dakolo, a survivor of one of
the most horrific acts -rape. My voice will not
be shut down. My case will not be silenced. I
am thankful to those in and out of the police,
the ministry and the corridors of power who
have called in solidarity and to reassure me
that they are monitoring the ministry of justice
and that this pressure to bury the case will not
succeed.

I am updating the Nigerian public because you
all made my story matter. You joined me to say
enough is enough. With you, this has been an
easier process.''

Nigerians braved the rain to protest the
murder of George Floyd and to call for an end
to racial injustice.

The protest was organised by the Black Lives
Matter Movement in Nigeria (BLMMN). The
convener, Josephine Okpara, stormed the
streets of Victoria Island, Lagos, with other
protesters.

https://alexis.lindaikejisblog.com/photos/shares/5ed5540891031.jpg

They carried placards with words such as
"Black Lives Matter" and "Justice For George
Floyd" written on them as they condemned
the killing of African Americans in the United
States of America.

https://alexis.lindaikejisblog.com/photos/shares/5ed55177974f7.jpeg

The protest comes after George Floyd died on
May 25, 2020, after Minneapolis officer Derek
Chauvin knelt on his neck for nearly 9
minutes during an arrest.

https://alexis.lindaikejisblog.com/photos/shares/5ed551af3c972.jpeg

Speaking on behalf of the group, convener,
Josephine Okpara said the US must put an
end to “white supremacy and build local
power to intervene in violence inflicted on
black communities by the state and
vigilantes”.

https://alexis.lindaikejisblog.com/photos/shares/5ed551da04087.jpeg

Nigerians across various social media
platforms were not impressed by the protest.
They mentioned that we have more pressing
issues in the country to protest and they
criticized the protesters.

"Dragging God" is trending on Twitter after a number of Nigerian Twitter users took to the platform to blame God for not acting to save Uwa Vera Omozuwa when she was raped and murdered inside a church.

The death of Uwa, a 22-year-old UNIBEN student who went to a branch of RCCG in Benin to read, has angered people.

RCCG released a statement, saying that the church has been closed since the lockdown but Uwa usually collects the key to go into the church so that she can study in private. It was while studying on May 27 that she was attacked, raped, and killed.

Reacting to Uwa's death, the death of Tina who was shot dead by police, and other ills in Nigeria, people put the blame on God and made some statements considered blasphemous.

According to Ogimex Aka Obonblingz, he used

The Presidential Task Force (PTF) on COVID-19
has recommended to President Muhammadu
Buhari to allow states to decide on the
reopening of schools, businesses and worship
centres shut since March as part of the efforts
to curb the spread of COVID-19.

The recommendation was among a raft of
others, the PTF made to the president at a
meeting yesterday at the State House ahead
of his decision today on the next phase of
action to take as the two-week extension of
the easing of restrictions on socio-economic
activities, which expires today.

The president had on May 18, extended the
easing of the lockdown on the Federal Capital
Territory (FCT), Lagos and Ogun States as well
as extending the 8 pm-6 am curfew imposed
nationwide, the ban on interstate movements
and the lockdown of Kano State.

However, the incidence of the pandemic has
been on the rise as the virus infected 307
more people yesterday, bringing the total
figure of confirmed cases to 10,162 with
3,007 persons discharged and 287 people
dead.

The 307 new cases were reported from 15
states, including Lagos 188, FCT 44, Ogun 19,
Kaduna 14, Oyo 12, Bayelsa nine, Gombe
five, and Kano, three.

President Donald Trump has announced that the US is terminating its ties with the World Health Organization, WHO, and will suspend all funding to the organization.

The US President made the announcement during a press conference at the White House Rose Garden on Friday May 29. He said his decision comes after WHO ''failed to make the requested and greatly needed reforms”.

He accused the WHO officials of helping China lie and conceal the seriousness of the ''Wuhan virus''.

He says all funds will now be redirected to other global public health needs.


''Because they have failed to make the requested and greatly needed reforms, we will be today terminating our relationship with the World Health Organization and redirecting those funds to other worldwide and deserving urgent global public health needs. The Woeld needs answers from China on the virus'' he said

Speaking further, he said China has total control over the World Health Organization despite only paying $40 million per year compared to what the United States has been paying, which is approximately $450 million a year,”

The Senior Special Assistant, Media and
Publicity to President Muhammadu Buhari, Mr
Garba Shehu has said that Buhari trusts
women more than men.

Disclosing this when he played host in an NTA
programme on Friday, Shehu, said; “Let me
say this, I hope I don’t get myself into trouble.

“He is more trusted of women than men,
because he has given this country… all these
years, all the country’s money is in the hands
of women and they kept it safely. And they
are doing well.”

Recall that Kemi Adeosun was Buhari’s first
finance minister, before, Zainab Ahmed. Both
are women of exceptional qualities.

Adeosun resigned on September 15, 2018,
following allegations that she used a forged
certificate to avoid the country’s mandatory
one-year youth service scheme, NYSC.

In her defense, Kemi said she was issued with
a certificate that she thought was genuine. She
however, resigned honorably.

In her words, “This has come as a shock to me
and I believe that in line with this administration’s focus on integrity, I must do the honourable thing and resign”.

I can't believe this

In a bid to curb the high rate of unemployment
in the country, the Federal Government has
rolled out a scheme which will see unemployed
youths in rural areas earning N20,000 per
month, The PUNCH reports.

The youths will be engaged in the clearing of
drainages, sweeping markets, road
maintenance, traffic control, and cleaning of
public infrastructures like health centres and
schools.

The Minister of State for Labour and
Employment, Mr Festus Keyamo (SAN), said this
at a news conference on Thursday.

Keyamo said the scheme targeted 1,000 youths
each from the 774 local governments across the
country.

The minister said the programme is one of the
biggest social intervention schemes to be
carried out within a short period of time by any
government in the history of Nigeria.

The PUNCH reports that the scheme, known as
the Special Public Works Programme in the
Rural Areas, is domiciled in the National
Directorate of Employment for implementation
and is expected to take off in October.

The minister’s speech read in part, “The pilot
programme earlier approved by Mr. President
was designed to mitigate lack of job
opportunities in the rural areas through a
short-term engagement of 1,000 unemployed
persons per local government area for a period
of three months.

“It is a dry season/off-season transient job
programme and was originally designed for the
rehabilitation/maintenance of public and social
infrastructure. Participants were to be paid an
allowance of N20,000 monthly and were to be
recruited largely from the pool of unskilled
persons resident in those rural areas.

“This pilot scheme was approved to be
implemented in five local government areas in
eight states namely: Adamawa, Borno, Ebonyi,
Edo, Ekiti, Jigawa, Katsina and Kwara.

Beneficiaries are engaged in: drainage digging
and clearance, irrigation canals clearance, rural
feeder road maintenance, maintenance of the
Great Green Wall nurseries and orchards in
Borno, Jigawa and Katsina states; traffic control,
street cleaning, cleaning of public infrastructure
like health centres, schools and the likes. A
total of 40,000 direct transient jobs were
expected to be created in the eight pilot
states.”

Keyamo said the Special Public Works in the
Rural Areas is an employment- intensive
technique acquired and adapted by the
National Directorate of Employment from one
of the capacity-building collaborations with the
International Labour Organisation in the late
1980s to the middle of the 1990’s.

The minister said for the purpose of
transparency and accountability in the process,
the President has approved the use of select
banks to register and collate data of the
beneficiaries.

“The banks will open accounts for all
beneficiaries and in the process obtain Bank
Verification Numbers for those without
accounts.

“All payments would be made from the Central
Bank of Nigeria directly to the accounts of the
beneficiaries,” he added.

The Federal government has withdrawn the
examination malpractice charges filed against the
former governorship candidate of the People’s
Democratic Party (PDP) in Osun State, Senator
Ademola Adeleke.

The charges were filed during the heat of the Osun
state governorship election campaign in 2018,
accusing Adeleke and one of his relatives, Sikiru
Adeleke, of engaging in examination malpractice.

Ademola and Sikiru were accused of impersonation,
registering as students of Ojo-Aro Community
Grammar School, Ojo-Aro, Osun State to enable
them to sit for the National Examinations Council
(NECO) examination of June/July 2017.

They were later arraigned before a Federal High
Court in Abuja in October 2018 along with Alhaji
Aregbesola Mufutau (the school principal),
Gbadamosi Thomas Ojo (registrar) and Dare
Samuel Olutope, a teacher in the school. The other
three defendants were accused of aiding the
commission of the alleged offence.

At the resumed hearing of the case on Thursday,
May 28, the prosecution lawyer, Simon Lough said
the state has amended the charge to exclude
Adeleke, in view of his continued absence in court.
Adeleke has failed to attend court since last year
when he was granted permission, by the trial judge,
Justice Inyang Ekwo, to travel to the United States
on medical grounds.

The Nation reports that lawyers to the defendants,
led by Alex Izinyon (SAN) did not object to the
prosecution’s decision to amend its charge. They
however disagreed with the prosecution on the
appropriate order to be made; whether Adeleke
should be simply discharged, based on the
withdrawal of the charge against him, or whether
he should be discharged and acquitted.

Justice Ekwo has fixed ruing on the issue for today
Friday, May 29.

Snoop Dogg shared a photo collage showing
the arrest of 4 men, two of whom are White
and two Black.

The White men, Dylann Roof and Patrick
Crusius, were arrested for mass murder. Yet,
photos of their arrest show police treating
them with dignity and used no force at all.

Officers even bought Dylann Roof food from
Burger King following his calm arrest after he
had killed nine African Americans and injured
one other in Charleston Church.

In August 2019, Patrick Crusius, 21, killed 23
shoppers and injured 23 others at a branch of
Walmart in El Paso, Texas. Yet he was
arrested calmly.

At the bottom of the photos shared by Snoop
are two Black men, Eric Garner killed in 2014
after a police officer put him in a chokehold,
and George Floyd killed by police at the age of
46.

Garner and Floyd's death are similar in the
sense that police held them down and they
screamed "I can't breathe" until they died. In
both cases, the police officers didn't listen to
their cries for help.

Eric Garner was arrested on suspicion of
illegally selling cigarettes on July 17, 2014. He
died after a police officer choked him for 15
seconds while he screamed "I can't breathe".

George Floyd was arrested On May 25, 2020,
after he was suspected of forgery. On
Monday night, an employee at a Minneapolis
grocery store called police after Floyd
allegedly tried to pass a counterfeit $ 20 bill.

Police claim Floyd resisted arrest but
surveillance footage showing the incident
leading up to George Floyd's arrest shows he
cooperated with officers.

Snoop Dogg captioned the photo collage: "So
nice to the (white ). Mass shoooting suspects
minutes after they killed 32 people combined
But we die on the spot change gone come
Bleep marching and. Talking we done talking."

so sad

TheGodlessGod:
If someone asked which ethnic groups have the most beautiful girl.. most people will start mentioning igbos, fulanis etc

That's where the issue of colorism comes out, fulanis and igbos are light in completion,many think they are beautiful because they were condition to think that white/lightskin are superior and finer.

If I tell any black man to name the country with the most beautiful girl, you'll see them start naming whites and Latina countries.

When you tell them to name any African countries with the most beautiful girls except north African countries (because they are white).

You'll see them start mentioning Ethiopia, Somali and other Horners.

Why? Because they've like eurocentric curly hair,lips and slim nose.

Colorism have really affected us as blacks

A Nigerian man, Benjamin Amos has cried out on social media after his fiancee of 6 years left him.

According to the heartbroken man, she returned the ring after being engaged for ”Ordinary six years”.

His post on facebook reads:

"Ordinary 6yrs of engagement o! She just returned my
ring, saying she can no longer wait for just 4 more
yrs.

Oh My Heart

However, Nigerians on social media have lambasted
the man, calling him wicked for intending to keep her
waiting for so long."

As most churches, synagogues and mosques
worldwide remain shut, religious leaders are
taking faith online to ensure God’s word gets to
the millions marooned by the pandemic.

Religious services are being streamed on
Facebook, Instagram while prayers are being
posted by video link and timeless texts shared
on cellphones to bring spiritual support to the
hundreds of thousands of believers denied a
place of worship.

The highly contagious respiratory disease that
originated in China has pushed governments on
every continent to impose draconian lockdowns,
hitting sport, shopping, travel and faith.

From China to the United States, many religious
groups have suspended services and moved
faith online, trying out new ways to stay close
to their communities, as holy sites and public
spaces also remain shut, changing the face of
many world cities.

Churches have historically been a place of
sanctuary in times of crisis and closures have
caused disarray.

Besides broadcasting services, some have come
up with novel initiatives to raise morale among
those confined to home.

In Nigeria, pastors hold divergent views on
COVID-19.


Only those whose time has come will die—
Adeboye

In Nigeria, Pastor Enoch Adeboye , the General
Overseer of the Redeemed Christina Church of
God, RCCG, says God told him world will be on
compulsory holiday. Adeboye said he didn’t
include this vision on coronavirus in the new
year prophecy because he thought it would be
a terror attack. Pastor Enoch Adeboye describes
Coronavirus as a compulsory public holiday
from heaven.

He said, “He told me loud and clear that the
whole world will be on compulsory holiday. I
knew the time the world got close to a
compulsory holiday was when there was an
attack on the World Trade Centre in America.

“So, when he said the whole world is going to
be on compulsory holiday, I thought something
like that was going to happen as it happened
during 9/11.

Describing coronavirus as a public holiday
declared from heaven, Adeboye said God will
remove the plague once he achieved his
purpose.

Adeboye also urged Nigerians not to panic as
corona virus spreads across Nigeria, adding that
only those “whose time has come” will die of
the corona virus disease. Pastor Adeboye also
said the pandemic will soon be over after God
intervenes and lessons have been learnt by
mankind that God is in control He said that the
current COVID-19 outbreak ravaging the world
will end soon.

“I have heard one prophet say the corona virus
will soon die. And I said ‘amen’. You know
prophets are greater than pastors. I heard that
one prophet say corona virus will end by March
27 and I said ‘Amen’.

“There is no reason to fear, only those whose
time has come will go (die). Also, if He is in
your boat, your boat can never sink. But if He
is not in your boat, who can you call upon
when trouble comes? It is only in the family of
God that there is security when trouble
comes,” the RCCG overseer was quoted to have
said.

Chris Oyakhilome of Christ Embassy & the 5G
conspiracy

In his sermon during the lock-down, Pastor
Chris Oyakhilome of Christ Embassy told his
members in a sermon that the lock-down over
corona-virus was the 5G and the new world
order where some figures of authority in the
world were trying to build a religion, economy
and government for the entire universe.

Quoting Revelation Chapter 13, he said there is
no need for a vaccine, adding that these are
part of the Antichrist’s plan for a new world
order.

In a viral video where Pastor Chris was
responding to questions, the cleric maintained
his earlier claims and further explained that
President Muhammadu Buhari was forced to
lock down Abuja and Lagos so that the 5G could
be installed.

He insisted that Corona virus did not kill
anyone in the Wuhan City of China but 5G did.

“In Nigeria for example, the Federal
Government intervened and shut down…
declared a total lockdown for Abuja and Lagos
even though the State Government had given
their own instructions for the lockdown already
but it was not enough.

“The Federal government was pushed to lock
down Abuja and Lagos specifically because of
5G in Abuja and Lagos. Because they already
tested 5G in Abuja and they’re digging in Lagos
. They’re engaged in the draining in Lagos. That
is why the Federal government had to shut
down Abuja and Lagos so that the 5G could be
installed. And there are other cities planned
for.”

The Pastor in a live broadcast said: “I have to
look at my calling to the healing ministry as a
priority. You may be a pastor or minister and
you are not into the healing ministry; this may
not concern you.

“ I love technology. I’m a science and
technology enthusiast, just studying the
capabilities of the 5G I’m wowed and would like
to go into it right away but at the same time
I’m into healing and meeting with sick people
every time. So, no matter how enthusiastic I
am about the 5G technology I’m going to think
of health implications and put my concern for
the health risk involved.”

Ashimolowo blasts Oyakhilome

But in his response to Oyakhilome, Pastor
Matthew Ashimolowo of Kingsway International
Christian Centre, KICC,criticized Pastor
Oyakhilome and other pastors who are
attributing the COVID-19 pandemic to 5G and
Antichrist.

He equally expressed disappointment in pastors
who are allegedly bringing up what he
described as ‘foolish’ conspiracy theories.

In short video posted online, Ashimolowo
described as fake news any claims of links
between the 5G network with spiritual things
and Corona-virus epidemic.

“It’s fake news to associate 5G to corona-virus,”
he said.

Ashimolowo, warned Christians not to promote
conspiracy theories about the coronavirus,
questioning why the virus was present even in
villages with no 5G network.

“If corona virus is caused by 5G, why is it in his
village that does not have a 5G?”

Churches, Mosques shut in 1918 — Adeyemi

Also, Pastor Sam Adeyemi of Daystar Christian.
Centre debunked claims by Pastor Chris
Oyakhilome that churches were shut down by
the government in order to install the 5G
network.

Making reference to 1918, Adeyemi said
churches, mosques, schools and markets were
also shut in Nigeria during the influenza
pandemic and it was not Antichrist.

It will be over on March 27th – TB Joshua
Declares

The founder of the Synagogue Church of All
Nations (SCOAN), Temitope Balogun Joshua,
simply known as ‘T.B. Joshua’ was actually the
first to put his credibility on the line when he
predicted an end to the deadly Corona-virus
pandemic.

The famous man of God mentioned the end of
March 27, 2020, specifically as the time the
novel virus would go away at its own will,
saying the situation cannot be remedied by the
power of medicine because it was not a
medicine that brought it.

“I came out at the beginning of this year saying
last year will end in March and the year will
continue to be very fearful till this month
[March]. On March 27th, it will be over. By the
end of this month, whether we like it or not –
no matter the medicine they might have
produced to cure whatever, it will go the way it
came. If it is not a medicine that brought this
to the world, medicine cannot take it out. It will
go the way it came,” he said to much applause
from his congregation.

Recently, the man of God declared that it
would rain for one week in China’s Wuhan and
wipe off the virus. There has been a decline in
new infections in China but it is unclear if it has
anything to do with the T.B Joshua’s prediction.

It will end in April —Chukwuemeka Odumeje

Controversial Nigerian prophet, Chukwuemeka
Odumeje,in his declaration about the dreaded
coronavirus stated the virus will be gone in
April. Odumeje, The Lion, is no doubt one of
the most controversial figures in Nigeria today.

The way he carries himself, the way he
preaches, the way he conducts deliverances
and all of it is different. Some see him as a
new breed of T.B Joshua.

The 40-year-old based in Onitsha, Anambra
runs a church called Mountain of Holy Ghost
Intervention and Deliverance Ministry Inc.,
a.k.a the Land of Freedom and is one of the
prominent in the South East, Nigeria.

Prophet Emeka Odumeje in a new video which
is now circulating on Social Media,said “On the
first week of April, I will come for you Corona-
virus in every country in the world, in overseas.
You will know why I am the end of sickness.”
He went ahead to say “I lay curse on China”,
adding that he’s coming for India next.

It will end soon— Oyedepo

Pastor Oyedepo also predicted the end of the
corona-virus pandemic in Nigeria – The
respected man of God, who spoke through his
son who is also a senior pastor, said COVID-19
will soon become a thing of the past in the
country. Oyedepo disclosed this while donating
an ambulance and Personal Protective Gears
(PPE) to the Ogun state government.

Oyedepo was represented by his son who,
Pastor David Oyedepo (Junior), who is also a
senior pastor in the church.

Earlier, he courted controversy when he
introduced account numbers where members
of his Church should continue to pay tithes and
offerings, despite the lock-down.

God’ll heal the world, don’t panic – Mbaka
tells Nigerians

Celebrated priest and the Spiritual Director of
Adoration Ministry, Enugu, Nigeria (AMEN), Rev.
Father Ejike Mbaka after being abused for not
seeing vision of the virus, has urged Nigerians
not to fear as God will heal the world as he
cursed the virus.

“Corona virus, wherever you came from, be it
any name you answer- caterpillar virus, Venza
virus, corolla virus, I command you to be
ceased, in the Holy Ghost fire!

“Children of God, when you go home, circulate
the message that a man of God known as Fr.
Ejike Mbaka told you not to be afraid of
coronavirus, be courageous it will soon be a
thing of the pass.

“Fear is a dangerous omen if you become
perplexed; it shows that you don’t believe so
much on God’s power. Ebola came, it died off.

This one will also die off. It is like bird flu
disease, it will come and go. I know that the
whole world is waiting to hear for the message
that will come out from this place, but the
message I have is that the disease will soon go.

“Under the priestly anointing, I release healing
to the entire world, particularly where the
disease is ravaging so much, let there be
healing, let there be sun-ray always, which is
one of the antidotes to the disease. God
release drug that will cure it in Jesus name.”

The agenda is to create a new world order—
Apostle Suleiman

For the general overseer of Omega Fire
Ministries International, a church with its
headquarters in Auchi, the agenda behind
COVID-19 is to create a new world order.

In a statement he issued, he said: ”The Lord
said I gave this world to man and as such I
don’t do anything in the world until man invites
me with understanding in the place of prayer.

The nation in question (China) has sinned
greatly against the Lord. They wanted to make
their own moon shine brighter than the natural
moon. Their power tussle is between a
particular nation and they want to bring that
nation under their feet.

“Covid-19 is an experiment and they are happy
that they could shake the world and they would
wait for another two years. In 2022, something
worse will still come and it will originate from
them.

“The world leaders are coming together to
make a synergy that will make all religions have
a common ground and the Pope is part of it.

America is their target but the current President
Donald Trump is their obstacle. America should
not joke with the next general elections as they
will all support the opponent.

“The opponent is not the issue but his running
mate is the issue. The running mate is a lady
and if the opponent wins, the opponent will be
impeached for the lady to take over and fulfill
the new world order.

“Their agenda is to humiliate him(Trump). They
have succeeded in humiliating him while they
are free from it but the prayer of the saints will
reverse it and America will be healed. The virus
was manufactured by this people (China). It is
not a biological issue, it is a chemical weapon.”

Recently, a former colleague told me that
she was worried about an older brother
who had suddenly gone religious. According
to her, this brother said: “he could hear
God talking to him through the radio.

He also alleged that all of us in the family
were evil because, we didn’t believe in the
spiritual church. He thinks his own spiritual
church and his beliefs are right.

As wild as he looked when he made these
allegations, it was obvious that he was
cracking up.

So, how do you tell if someone close to you
is cracking up?” With all these named
disasters and economic crunch plaguing the
country wouldn’t it be nice to know?

According to psychiatrists, there are seven
clues to alert you. For instance, an
unexpected change in behaviour is the big
tip-off that a friend, relation, or co-workers
is suffering from emotional problems and
may need professional help.

Here are the seven clues to look for:


*A person who is usually energetic acts
tired and indifferent. The person may
complain about being tired. His work may
be neglected and he doesn’t seem to care.

*A previous polite and caring person
suddenly becomes insensitive. Manners and
social etiquette often fall apart during
mental illness, said a psychiatrist. “Words
like ‘please’ and ‘thank you’ may disappear
from the person’s vocabulary and he or she
may act rude – pushing ahead of others in a
line, for example.”

*A person who usually controls his alcohol
or drug intake loses control. When someone
with no history of alcohol or drug-abuse
begins to abuse these substances, it can be
a sign of mental illness. And drug abuse
doesn’t necessarily have to mean illicit
drugs – it also can mean prescribed drugs.

*A person who usually maintains stable
relationship starts to develop difficulty with
important ones. The person may have
trouble dealing with people on the job –
and with his or her spouse. He or she may
resort to physical or emotional abuse and
may yell or scream.

*A person with emotions in the normal
range becomes despondent or shows rapid
shifts in mood. The person may begin to
have rapid shifts in emotions going from
anger to playfulness, from sadness to
giggles.

*A previously decisive person has trouble
making decisions. Even the smallest
decision, like choosing clothes, becomes
difficult. The person might make up his or
her mind and then change it possibly
several times.

*A person with good hygiene. His or her
clothes may be inappropriate, dirty, or not
ironed. Often, the person may wear the
same clothes for days, not brush his or her
teeth and bathe less frequently – and may
even begin to smell bad.

According to a recent publication in the
medical journal, you could be a candidate
for a nervous breakdown if you answer yes
to six or more of the 12 questions:-


*Did you have a tragic childhood? A
parent’s death or separation?

*Was your childhood unsettled with
constant moves, parents coming and going?

*Do you always felt everyone is bigger,
more clever, and nicer than you?

*Do you think too much or take drugs?

*Are you the sort of person who thinks
happiness won’t last?

*Have you always felt people criticize you
behind your back?

*Do you find it difficult to express your
feelings?

*Do you find it difficult to express your
feelings?

*Do you find it hard to be angry even when
you’ve reason to be?

*Do you find it difficult to find and keep
friends and lovers?

*Have you been exposed to a nervous
breakdown sufferer, particularly when
young?

*Are you preoccupied with your health?


Indeed, reading this, are you now
convinced you’re having a nervous
breakdown?

According to the psychiatrist: “In
approaching someone you think needs help,
do so in a caring manner. Say something
like, “something seems to be different about
you. You’re not acting like your old self. I
really care about you and I think you should
talk to someone who is skilled about it.”

The defence headquarters says captured
Boko Haram members are provided with
face masks and also quarantined as a
measure to curb the spread of COVID-19.

The military recently launched a series of
offensives against the insurgents, and while
some fled, others were captured.

John Enenche, coordinator defence media
operations, at a media briefing in Abuja,
said soldiers at the frontline are also
provided with personal protective
equipment (PPE), and that social distancing
rule is observed by troops.

“The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the
way everything will be done,” he said.

“We have ordered for PPE for troops at the
frontlines.

“The moment they (Boko Haram members)
are captured, they are quarantined and
given face masks while observing social
distancing too.


“Captured or surrendered enemies are
treated in line with the Geneva Convention.

COVID-19 has changed the way things are
done at the frontlines and in barracks.”

In April, the Defence Industries Corporation
of Nigeria (DICON), a parastatal under the
ministry of defence, produced a ventilator
known as DICOVENT and PPE to address the
shortage of medical supplies in the country.

Enenche had said in addition to its primary
responsibility “to produce defence
equipment, DICON has succeeded in
diversifying its human, equipment,
machinery as well as research and
development capacity, to support a much-
needed strategic intervention to cushion the
effects of the highly dreaded COVID 19 in
the country”.

Republic Of Benin Businessman Investigated By EFCC For Alleged €29m Fraud Dies In Kirikiri Prison

A businessman from the Republic of Benin, Jean Codo, who is being investigated for alleged €29m fraud by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, has died at the Kirikiri prison, Lagos.

Codo, who owns Transport and Port Management System Limited, died on Thursday due to lack of proper medical attention.

He was granted bail in November 2019 but could not fulfil the bail conditions and despite appeals to have him released on compassionate ground due to COVID-19 outbreak, the Nigerian authorities refused until he died in custody.

The Beninese was said to have collapsed in prison and rushed to the military hospital in Lagos where he died on Thursday morning.

Like Codo, a suspected cross-border robbery kingpin, Hamani Tijani, died at the Kirikiri Maximum Prisons in January 2014 after suffering partial stroke for nine months.

Spokesperson for the Nigerian Prisons Service, Lagos Command at the time, DSP Biyi Jeje, confirmed the development to journalists.

Jeje said 42-year-old Tijani died in the clinic of the maximum prison.

A citizen of Niger Republic, Tijani was arrested in 2003 in Benin Republic and spent 11 years in prison while facing trial before his death at Kirikiri.
