Stupid act

The Edo State Police Command has commenced an investigation into the death of an operative of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission in Benin, the Edo State capital.

Although the investigation has not been concluded, it is suspected that the deceased, Williams Oyibogare, died of a suicide because two bottles of a pesticide, Sniper, were found in his home located at the Giwa Amu area along the Airport Road.

It was further alleged that a suicide note was found on his phone which the police have already recovered.

The spokesman for the EFCC, Mr Wilson Uwujaren, confirmed Oyibogare’s death, but said the commission was waiting for the police to conclude its investigation before making any further comment.

“It is true that one of our operatives died. The police have begun an investigation into the matter and we hope to hear from them soon. That is all we can say for now,” Uwujaren said.

A colleague of the deceased told SUNDAY PUNCH that Oyibogare recently returned from his annual leave looking emaciated.

She, however, said it was too soon to make any conclusion.

“He returned from leave recently. He looked pale and seemed to have lost weight. He may have died from an illness or it could also have been suicide, but we cannot say for sure since we don’t live with him. Let us wait for the police to conclude their probe. An autopsy would be able to reveal the real cause of his death,” she said.

Speaking with our correspondent on the telephone, the Public Relations Officer, Edo Police command, Chidi Nwabuzor, said the police would wait for the autopsy before making further comment on the matter.

“Investigations are ongoing and it would be too soon to make any conclusions at this stage; it is too early to make any pronouncements. Of course, there will be an autopsy to know the cause of the death and inquire what happened,” Nwabuzor said.

Lol. So funny

There are ongoing attacks on other Africans especially Nigerians living South Africa by some citizens.

The South Africans perpetuating these acts argue that the foreigners are taking over all the jobs which belong to them. This is not the first xenophobic attack occurring in South Africa. However, the main targets this time are Nigerians and Zambians.

Other African countries and its citizens have reacted to the attacks in South Africa. Presidents on the continent have condemned the happenings.

However, here are six effects of the xenophobic attacks on South Africa.

1. Zambia FA

Zambia's football association cancelled an international friendly match against South Africa scheduled to take place on Saturday in the capital, Lusaka.


"This is because of the security concerns, you never know what can happen," Football Association of Zambia secretary-general Adrian Kashala, told AFP news agency. "We want to be sure of the security of [the] visiting team," he added.

2. Zambia bans SA music from being played

A popular radio station in Zambia, Hot FM has refused to play any South African music whatsoever.

3. Celebrities boycott South Africa

Nigerian Afrobeats star Burna Boy has vowed to never go to South Africa again until the government "wakes up". In his tweet, he stated that he himself had had his own "xenophobic experiences at the hands of South Africans " in 2017.

Another Nigerian singer, Tiwa Savage, also announced on Twitter that she was pulling out of a concert she had planned to perform at in South Africa in September, condemning "the barbaric butchering of my people".

4. African leaders boycott the World Economic Forum

The presidents of the DRC, Malawi, Nigeria, and Rwanda will not attend the WEF which will be held in South Africa. It has also been said that other African nations will also boycott the event due to the recent attacks on African nationals in Gauteng.

The World Economic Forum's Elsie Kanza said she was surprised to hear about reports of boycotting.

"One of the leaders - Rwanda - unfortunately, had to cancel his participation last week, before the very unfortunate events [violent protests].

"The World Economic Forum and the South African government teams have been following up on the delegations from the DRC and Malawi because while they indicated that they would be participating they never completed their registration."

5. South Africa embassy in Nigeria closed down

South Africa has closed down its diplomatic missions in the Nigerian cities of Abuja and Lagos following “after receiving reports and threats from some of the Nigerians” said foreign ministry spokesperson Lunga Ngqengelele.

He added that “we decided to temporarily close while we are assessing the situation,” adding the missions were shut on Wednesday.

“So we will be monitoring the situation and when we see it necessary to open, we will re-open,” he said.

6. South African-owned businesses looted abroad

In Nigeria, vandals smashed windows to break into the offices of MTN, a South African telecommunications company and stole items including laptops. They also looted retail shops owned by South Africans. A similar situation has happened in Zambia.

7. Nigeria recalls its Ambassador to South Africa

The escalating dispute has seen Nigeria recall its ambassador to South Africa, Ambassador Kabiru Bala.

What kind of card?

A former Goldman Sachs banker, Ellias Preko, who helped the former governor of Delta State, James Ibori, to hide funds in offshore accounts has been ordered to pay back £7.3m or face 10 years more in jail.

Preko, a 60-year-old Ghanaian had been convicted and jailed for four and a half years back in 2013 for his role in the fraud.

Judge David Tomlison ordered Preko to pay back £7,324.268.41 following a confiscation hearing.

Preko has three months to repay the money or he could face another 10 years in jail, reports Daily Mail.

Preko, who represented himself, told the court in a previous hearing much of the cash had been spent on election campaigning back in his native Ghana.

He said he had run as a candidate for the centre-right NPP party back in the mid-2000s.


Preko explained that Ghana is predominantly a cash-based society and that few receipts exist for his campaign spending.

Ibori was jailed for 13 years in 2012 after he admitted to stealing state funds during his two terms in office as a governor.

The court heard how he pocketed up to £160 million from government treasuries.
