Crime › Unmasking Kidnap Kingpin Wadume What You Don't Know About Him: Pictures by farem(op): 11:42am On Aug 14, 2019

UNMASKING KIDNAP KINGPIN WADUME

～ The suspected Taraba kidnap kingpin is a petty fish trader, painter, politician, polygamist with many children and a philanthropist. His wealth status might have been exergerated because of his generosity and profligate spending. He was reclusive until the last two years. His wealth, allegedly through kidnapping shot him into ‘prominence’.

He is at the centre of a disagreement between the Army and the Police following soldiers killing of three policemen and a civilian who were on an anti-kidnapping mission in Taraba State.

The incident is under probe following public outcry.
Who is he? His name is Hamisu Bala. His nickname is “Why Do You Mean?”, which many mistake for “Wadume.” He is a Hausa man whose great grand father migrated from Katsina state.

He was born and brought up in Ibi local government area of Taraba State. His late father, Bala, was Hausa, while his mother was Tiv, from Ukum local government area of Benue state.

He holds a secondary school certificate, having attended the Government Secondary School (GSS) Ibi. It was gathered that he was “not a brilliant” Arts student.
“He completed secondary school in 2004 and did not proceed to any tertiary institution,” one of his classmates told The Nation.
Bala, 35, suddenly became so rich that many believe he made it through ‘ritual’. His posh residence in Ibi was built only last year. Before then, he was a petty trader who specialised in buying and selling fish in Ibi.
“He was not even a big trader; he could only afford to buy only one or most of the time, half a basket of fish to sell at retail prices,” a source, who knows him well, said. Bala was a painter who had partnership with his brother.

During the 2019 polls, he aspired to become a House of Assembly member, representing Ibi Constituency, on the platform of the Young Democratic Party (YDP). But, he did not make it.
After making money Bala has been living the life of a philanthropist.
In the last two years, he reportedly built houses for his friends and donated hundreds of motorcycles and cars to young men and women. He is also believed to be generous to security agents.

“Sometimes he (alleged kidnapper) goes to tea sellers and settles the bills of tea drinkers. Then, he gives N10,000 each to the people,” a source in Ibi said.
Two of his wives have been under house arrest. His other two wives are in Mecca on pilgrimage, it was learnt.
So, how did police know Bala was a big time kidnapper to the extent of apprehending him? One of Bala’s accomplices, known as Kwarba, was apprehended by the police in Jalingo, over his alleged involvement in the kidnapping of a Permanent Secretary.

During interrogation, Kwarba revealed that Bala was their leader. The police then allowed Kwarba to be communicating with Bala on the phone for over three days, as though he was not in detention. Based on their communication, the police were able to gather useful information.

It was during one of their conversations on the phone that Bala disclosed that he was coming to Ibi for Eid el Kabir celebration. On arrival in Ibi, Bala phoned Kwarba to inform him.

Operatives of the Intelligence Response Team (IRT) embarked on the journey. They got to the police headquarters in Jalingo, before proceeding to Ibi, in a white Toyota Hummer Bus marked, LAGOS: MUS-564EU.

They were in mufti, and carried Kwarba along so that he could identify Bala. They met Bala at a coffee joint, at the junction to Government Lodge. Kwarba identified him.

To pull the wool over the kidnapper’s eyes, the policemen in disguise went out and told him they brought a bus for sale. Bala sought to know the cost of the vehicle so that he could buy it, but the policemen suggested they would step aside for bargaining.
It was when he (Bala) got into the bus that the policemen told him they were there to arrest him, after handcuffing and chaining his legs.

After arresting the suspect, the operatives drove into Ibi town briefly and began to drive carefully out of the town. But while passing the coffee joint, (where Bala was picked) the suspected kidnapper forced his head out of the vehicle and shouted: “I have been kidnapped by these people.”
Soon, the news spread and some of Bala’s ‘boys’ began to chase the vehicle on motorbikes. The operatives had passed the first and second check points, with only one remaining to pass.

Bala’s accomplices then called the military checkpoint where the bus was ambushed. They opened fire on the bus conveying the operatives and suspected kidnapper. The bus somersaulted into the bush, following the barrage of gun fire, as the driver lost control of the wheel.
A source revealed that, after the killing of the three policemen and the civilian, Bala, who was handcuffed and chained in the legs, crawled and took refuge in the home of an old Jukun woman.

The following day, he called his army captain friend who came with three of his ‘boys’ in a red Toyota Corolla. Our source alleged that the army captain cut the chains on the suspected kidnapper.

“It was around 7:30am that he (Bala) was taken back to his home in Ibi in the red car,” an eyewitness said. On getting back to Ibi, his neighbours and Ibi residents went into jubilation. It was gathered that while the jubilation was on, Bala sneaked out, he has not been seen since then.

Family › Re: 1 Year After Marriage, I Am Already Tired by farem: 1:27pm On Aug 13, 2019

goodgirl2409:
My husband has really changed. He is so unemotional and revengeful.
I will cook for him severally and he won’t eat. I will serve him food and he won’t eat. I will ask him what I have done and he won’t respond. Every time he gives me the silent treatment.

I feel so pained because I expected more from this marriage but barely 1 year after, he doesn’t seem to love me anymore. Sometimes 1 month will pass, no sex. He would go out and won’t bother to tell me where he is going.

He would come back very late and would just ignore me like I don’t exist.
Although he drops money for me to run the house and communicates strictly with me, it make no sense to me.
I am tired. Is this how marriage is? Is this how men are or am I just suffering?

I don’t have anyone to beg to talk to him,and I was told reporting him to any of his family members is not good. things are getting worse everyday. People who have married for many years and are succeeding please help me. What am I not doing right?

UPDATE.
I want to add that it is not sexual incompatibility.
When he is in his happy mood, I would even be tired of his endless gist. S-x will be very great. He is kind and caring. Such a wonderful man. In fact an angel. He would even wash my underwear’s and clothes.

But when his mood start which is his mood most of the time, he won’t talk to you, he won’t eat. I will finish cooking, he will go outside and buy another food and come and cook. He won’t come back on time. I will ask him what is it, he would not respond. He always feels everything I do to annoy him, i do it on purpose. I am a peace loving person. Everyone around that knows the story
always say that he has a problem.

When all you were after were thick d*ck and six packs. Please continue with your focus and let me have my peace, jare

Politics › FOUR YEAR'S+: What Has This Pmb's Administration reall Done? Read This & Comment by farem(op): 1:22pm On Aug 13, 2019

UNDER PMB ADMINISTRATION.

-Nigeria imports N4.000.000.000 worth of diaper and sanitary kits yearly. In July 2015, Hayat invested $100.000.000 to build a factory;plus 14MW electricity. The facility has been completed,and work has begun to produce 1.300. 000.000 units of diaper and 13,000 tons of tissue yearly.

-Europe imports soybeans worth $14.2 from Nigeria, then go on to process it into oil and make thrice the money. In 2017, Alhaji Gerewa built a $50.000.000 processing plant in Kano, with a potential for export. Production has begun, 5,000 workers.

-Glass and stones are some of the items Nigeria import for building. In 2017, the importing company, Rongsheng, decided to relocate their factory to Edo state by building a multi-billion naira facility for glass processing. Production has begun and jobs created.

-In 2018, PMB was in Calabar to inaugurate this N3.000.000.000 rice seedling factory to boost Nigeria's yields. Rice farmers already booked a N2.000.000.000 order, and Bayelsa/Abia/Delta states also bought theirs . India made $7.000.000.000 from rice and this factory has a potential of N14.000.000.000 revenue yearly.

-Nigeria has a $3.700.000.000 groundnut market as the 3rd biggest producers in the world. The Dantata family became billionaires from the sales to Europe. But Nigeria's export was later banned,and today the UK has given new approvals with the first groundnut containers off to Europe again.

-Africa spends billions importing medical kits from India. After Jubilees, another firm HMA Medical,has set up a new plant in Nigeria that produces 200.000.000 syringes, 350.000.000 needles, surgical ( cotton wool, napkins and caps) materials. Nigeria can supply the continent's demand with time. Located in Ilorin.

-Ikun Dairy Farm was established in 1980 with fattened cows on 1,000 hectares of land. Valued at N700.000.000 but left to rot away. The good news, however, is that last week, Anders Einarsson, MD, Promasidor signed a pact with Ekiti State Governor, Dr. Kayode Fayemi to develop and source milk for processing from the Farm.
This is in response to FG's directive that dairy producing companies must source for their milk locally. It is called Backward Integration Initiative. Promasidor are the makers of Cowbell, Miksi etc.

-Banks in Nigeria spend billions importing bullion vans from Brazil. ProForce Nigeria is now reducing that import bill by manufacturing Bullion Vans for the CBN and major banks while operating out of their factory in Ogun state.

-The Netherlands’ Minister for Foreign Trade and Development Cooperation, H.E. Mrs. Sigrid Kaag has affirmed that given the consistent result FrieslandCampina WAMCO has recorded in local milk sourcing, Nigeria has the right partner to stimulate growth in the industry.
The Minister witnessed the signing of the partnership extension agreement on the Dairy Development Programme between FrieslandCampina WAMCO Nigeria PLC, represented by Ben Langat, Managing Director, and International Fertilizer Development Center (IFDC) represented by President and CEO, Albin Hubscher.

-Nigeria and China have signed a deal to start manufacturing transformers in a N4.000.000.000 facility in Kogi. About 60 Nigerian engineers are being sent to China now to learn in their factories how transformers are made.

-Abia state shoe markets has gotten international backing. The German Corporation Agency has announced plans to develop and link 5,000 Aba shoe businesses to international brands in Europe. Nigeria has 20.000.000 cattle producing leather for the multibillion Aba-shoes firms.

-Nigeria has massive deposits of salt in Keana, Nassarawa that can meet domestic demand and still be exported yet salt mainly from Brazil dominates Nigeria's import at $700.000.000 annually. PW Mining Group are now in Nasarawa to turn that salt into wealth through mining and processing.
Seplat is changing that with a $700.000.000 investment into a gas processing plant.
Federal Govt has supported the project in Imo state with $200.000.000.

She's a market leader in smart card technology and digital security. SecureID is a world-class manufacturing facility produce approximately 200.000.000 smart cards per year. And they export to other African nations.

-A decade ago, Nigeria was importing 100% of aluminium cans for soft/hard drinks at a cost. GZI built a manufacturing plant to produce them locally. And in 2016, Nigeria has started exporting to South Africa, Cote de Voire, Republic of Benin. Production has hit 1.200.000.000 cans annually, with export in mind.

The Nigeria Armed Forces import their uniforms from Turkey and Pakistan. This has helped developed the textile industry of those countries at our expense. Federal Govt gave a directive to stop imports of military clothing, and The Air Force has taken steps for local production.

-Chinese investors, led by Prof. Zhao Zhihai were in Nigeria yesterday to announce an Agro-processing investment that will replace US farmers with Nigerian Agro exporters. China is investing $16bn-$25bn into building processing facilities in Nigeria.

Slamming His head as the Son of God, who was ready to die for the world.
The issue here is more than head slamming. That's just ONE OF praying postures.

What do you day of the following;

John 11:41 Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me.

Mark 6:41
And when he had taken the five loaves and the two fishes, he looked up to heaven, and blessed, and brake the loaves, and gave them to his disciples to set before them; and the two fishes divided he among them all.

You're been so deceived to believe that Jesus is a moslem of Islam that came by over 700 years after His Ascension. The founder who adopted one out of hundreds of idols being worshipped in mecca even by idolatrous anvesto (allah). His, father an idol worshipper. Named abdullah (servant of Allah) , who himself had died when the paedophilel Mohammed was a child.
How could. he claim to found a new and better way (Allah), when his father died worshiping this same idol.?

Most Anambra Women In Malaysia Are Prostitutes — Indigenes

Anambra indigenes in Malaysia on Thursday raised the alarm that most women and girls from the state in that country were into prostitution and sex trafficking .

They stated this at a press conference in Awka, the Anambra State capital.

Speaking through their leader, Okwunwanne Mmaduka, under the aegis of Anambra State Welfare Association Malaysia , the group said the development had become a “ huge concern , embarrassing and unbearable .”

Mmaduka said the group had planned advocacy visits to stakeholders in the state to let them know the situation .

He said , “ We will meet the Obi of Onitsha , Igwe Alfred Achebe , and other monarchs, Governor Willie Obiano and other stakeholders in the state on how to stop the trend .”

He said the group received over 20 complaints each week on the activities of Anambra sex workers in Malaysia , adding that many of the women had lost their lives in the process .

“ We have rescued most of them and sent them back to Nigeria , while some others have been sent to school in Malaysia by us. The trend is giving us a bad name in that country .

“ ASWAM is disturbed by the increasing cases of Anambra State women and girls in Malaysia falling victims of sex trafficking and commercial sexual exploitation . ”

“ ASWAM is therefore , employing community -based and state -wide campaigns to combat the menace.

“ We are taking the campaigns to families , communities and traditional institutions here in Anambra State .

“ We are raising awareness among our young people , parents, government and the public on the dangers therein .

“ All hands must be on deck in this fight ,” the group said.

LIVING IN LAGOS WITHOUT KNOWING LAGOS
.
.
1 Ojota
Ojota used to be a military settlement in the late 18th century and soldiers practised their shooting there. The area had several gun firing spots and became known as “Oju Ota” in Yoruba which means “Bullet spots”. It later metamorphosed into Ojota which it is called now.

2. Abule Egba
This area is on the outskirts of Lagos and got its name from the early settlers who were Egba people from Abeokuta. The area was first called “Abule awon egba” in Yoruba, which means “Village of Egba people”. It later became “Abule Egba”.

3. Apongbon
Apongbon is one of Lagos’ most popular markets, and it’s also quite close to the popular Oke-Arin market. It got its name from the then acting governor of the Lagos colony, William McCoskry, who had a Red Beard. The Yorubas who couldn’t pronounce the colonial governor’s name decided to describe him by his red beard and started calling him *“Oyinbo to pon ni agbon”* (Apon l'agbon) meaning a red-bearded man. It later became Apongbon.

4. Magodo
Magodo is now a posh area, but in the past, it used to be sacred land. The residents had a lot of taboos and one of them was to avoid using mortars and pestles, “Ma gun odo” which means “Don’t pound it”. It later became Magodo

5. Epetedo
Epe is named after the early settlers who were Epe traders. The area became dominated by the Epes and they still trade there until today.

6. Ebute-Metta
Ebute-Metta is one of the earliest harbour docks where British ships berthed at. It was a hub for trade and commerce in colonial times. Ebute-Metta is a fusion of the words “Ebute” which means the seaside in Yoruba, and “Metta” which means three. The three shores are Iddo, Otto and Oko baba.

7. Broad street
Broad street used to be one of the longest and widest streets in the city. It got its name from its broadness. However, Broad Street was later changed to Yakubu Gowon Street but later changed back to Broad street when Gowon was accused of participating the coup that led to the death of Murtala Ramat Mohammed.

8. Agidingbi
The British Naval forces invaded Lagos in 1885 under the pretext of stopping slavery and human sacrifice. The noise their canon made was really loud, and the sound was heard round the streets of Lagos Island. The people described the sound as “A gidi n gbinnn”. Which means a loud groundbreaking noise. The name Agidingbi was borne out of this.

9. Victoria Island
Victoria Island was also a major hub for commerce and British ships berthed there often. It’s named after Queen Victoria of England who was Queen from 1837-1901.

10[b]. Ikeja[/b]
Ikeja, the capital of Lagos, is actually an abbreviation for “Ikorodu and Epe Joint Administration”, IKEJA. It was coined by the colonial masters for ease of administration.”

Health › Re: Health Benefits And Side Effects Of Wearing A Girdle by farem: 12:15pm On Aug 09, 2019

Ravon:
A girdle is one of the most popular types of shapewear. When you think about the benefits of wearing a girdle, you normally think about the effect it has on your appearance. However, regularly wearing a girdle has both health benefits and side effects that you need to know about.

1. Health Benefits Of Wearing A Girdle

Besides the positive changes in the appearance of your figure, you can also look forward to the following benefits of regularly wearing a girdle:

- Breast support. If you have a large bust, you are probably very familiar with back pains and other uncomfortable sensations. A girdle offers additional support to your bust, relieving the stress on your back.

- Better posture. Most people today are prone to bad posture, and wearing a girdle is an easy way to correct it. A girdle will help you keep your back straight without restraining it too much, so you’ll enjoy both a better posture and more room for movement.

- Weight loss. While a girdle does not directly influence your weight, it makes you appear smaller on your weight loss journey, thus giving you the confidence to continue. Plus, regularly going out in a girdle helps you keep your abdominal muscles tight.

- Stress. It turns out that wearing a girdle can help with not only physical but mental health. Being in a girdle all day long is a certain type of pressure that is very therapeutic and can even feel like a hug, giving you the strength to combat stress and anxiety.

- Headaches. Bad posture and unnecessary strain on the back and shoulders can lead to frequent headaches. A girdle offers your back and shoulders extra support, relieving your headaches and preventing migraines.

2. Side Effects Of Wearing A Girdle

Wearing a girdle has numerous benefits for your health and emotional well-being, but if you wear your girdle 365 days a year, there are certain side effects that can also happen:

- Heart problems. Due to being rather restricting, a girdle can lead to problems with blood circulations, which, in turn, will cause your heart to work harder with negative consequences.

- Digestive problems. Most girdles feel rather tight on your abdomen and often compress your stomach, intestines, and colon. As a result, you may experience heartburn and other problems with your digestion.

- Bladder pressure. If you have ever worn a girdle for an extended period of time, you know that going to the bathroom in a girdle can be rather uncomfortable. As a result, women keep from relieving their bladder on time, which, over time, can lead to incontinence and leakage.

- Breathing problems. Breathing deep is an essential requirement for the normal operation of every system in our bodies. Wearing a tight girdle constrains your diaphragm, making your stomach flare up when you are breathing, which results in shallow breaths.

- Varicose veins. If you are genetically predisposed to the varicose vein problem and have multiple women in your family suffering from the disease, there is a big chance that wearing a girdle every day will make the blood circulation in your legs worse and lead to the formation of varicose veins.

It takes a real human being to weigh the options rightly. You can decide to keep "in shape" for 5 years and later become a health junk later in the years.
Even certain are opting for hell fire instead of the Heaven, the choice is STILL yours!

This is an expired liner! What your mates are saying now is jet that, jet this.

I bet you many of these deacon(ess)s can and do employ those that employed you!
When a professor becomes a child of God, the ignorant illiterates label him unexposed. Same way the poor folks have nothing ton say to the visibly successful who turns Christ.

He will have to run a pgd programme first before putting in for Msc. Except he have a bsc with a minimum of second class lower that's when he can apply for msc directly.

Thank you.

As you already know, it is a paper based Exam and your expected to pen down your answers in detail.

Number one key is to Study every course from first page to last page. As you know, there's no area of concentration in NOUN.

Finally, do not prepare for Exam reading from your mobile device. There's a huge knowledge gap from a student who read from a printed paper and the one who reads from a device.

For Me, NOUN is not as tough as other conventional Universities. Thanks to all the Admin and comrade's who assisted in providing valid information that contributed to my success.

Regards.

Please someone is asking me what can he do to run Bsc or MSC in NOUN. He has HND in a management course.

Your full response is appreciated please
