What is this country turning into? Government should as matter of urgent do something about this cancer devouring this nation. …53-yr-old mother cries out; the man that raped my daughter is after my life A 53-year-old food vendor at the popular Ojuelegba park in Lagos simply identified as Madam Ganiyat, has cried out to relevant authorities over alleged threat to her life by a member of the NURTW Ojuelegba branch (name withheld) after she sued him for raping her daughter. Ganiyat from Ijebu in Ogun state told Crime Alert that the victim (name with held on victim’s wish) is her third child and that she was 22 years old when the ugly incident took place. She was also said to be a student at Anse-Udeen College of Education, Isolo while waiting for admission into the university. The distraught woman narrated her plight. How I received the news It was a rainy afternoon on June 20th , 2010; Ayo who works as a tout ( agbero) with the NURTW, Ojuelegba, had called on my daughter to bring cooked cassava floor (Amala’)and meat worth N150 to him in his office at Number 30, Makinde street, Ojuelegba, because, according to him, he does not want to be seen eating outside with his ordinary hand. Not suspecting anything, my daughter took the food to him. I was busy attending to my other customers when she came back crying with bruises all over her body. Some people at the building where it happened brought her to me. When asked what happened, she told me that she had just been raped by Ayola.. At first, it was like she was speaking in a language I could not understand. I stood gazing at space for the first 20 minutes. I was confused. The thought of my daughter being raped on the bare floor because she was assisting me was hitting me so bad. What was her crime? Why should she be meted with that kind of treatment. I was in this state when my colleagues advised me to go and report the incident at the police station. We all went and they gave me two police women to accompany me to effect Ayo’s arrest. They went with me and arrested him. We were then advised by the police to go and get a medical report to this effect. We went to Lagos Island Medical Center and she carried out all the necessary tests. It was confirmed that she had been raped. I have a copy of the result here with me. After this, Ayo was arrested and later released in July, 2010; because the police said it was a bailable offense. My grievance now is that after he was released, Ayo has been boasting to people that my daughter is just one of his trophies, that he can rape any lady he wants and nothing will happen. He is a serial rapist. He has been raping women, even before the incident with my daughter, he had raped one Titi, a bread seller at Yaba. It is also on record that he had raped his wife’s friend and his 19 year -old landlord’s daughter. After my daughter’s case, he raped a girl inside one of the primary schools at Mushin. She was seen crying under a tree in the school compound. When she mentioned what Ayo did to her, everybody was shouting ‘Ayo again, Ayo again; nothing was done to him after that. All I am crying for is for justice to be done to this case. I almost ran mad when I saw my daughter crying that she had been raped. I have been hearing stories of rape victims, but I didn’t know it would affect me this way. My husband and I went through a lot for two weeks after the rape incident. We could not come out from our house. What he does is to bet among his friends that he will sleep with a lady and then he goes ahead to rape that woman. We gathered that he had a bet with some of his friends that complained that my daughter has been proving hard to get, that they should wait and see, that he will get her. The Threat: The accused had threatened that if I don’t withdraw the case from the court, he will send his gang after me. I have mentioned this threat to the Magistrate. I have also gone to a radio station, ‘Bond FM’ after the incident to make it public, I took the matter to Poverty Alleviation Office at Alausa- Ikeja, they gave me a date that I should come, when I went on the said date, they told me that already my daughter has matured, moreover, that Ayo was not the one who dis- virgined her. After that, they did not do anything about the case. I was heart broken.” Counsel to the defendant, Imelda Adebambo who also spoke with Crime Alert said, “ It is an offense for any man to have canal knowledge of any woman without her consent. The accused has been on this for so long, and the other women affected have not had the courage to come out. In this case, I believe the law will take it’s cause and justice will be done. |

Uhuru Kenyatta takes oath as Kenyan president Tweet April 9, 2013 | 12:02 pm News NAIROBI (AFP) – Uhuru Kenyatta was sworn as Kenya’s fourth president on Tuesday to cheers from tens of thousands of supporters, despite facing an international crimes against humanity trial. “I do swear that I will be faithful and bear true allegiance to the Republic of Kenya,” Kenyatta said, clutching a bible as he took the oath of office. Kenyatta, wearing a dark suit and red tie, also pledged to “protect and uphold, the sovereignty, integrity and dignity of the people of Kenya”. Officials had to appeal for quiet as 60,000 people packed into Kenya’s national football stadium chanted Kenyatta’s name and roared in support as they danced. William Ruto, who like Kenyatta faces trial at the International Criminal Court (ICC) for crimes against humanity in The Hague, took the oath of office as vice-president. “I will always truly and diligently serve the people and the Republic of Kenya in the office of the deputy president,” “I will do justice to all without fear, favour, affection and ill will,” he added. Security was heavy as Kenyatta loyalists, dressed in the red colours of the winning Jubilee Coalition party, waved as military bands played tunes to welcome the new leader and say farewell to outgoing President Mwai Kibaki, 81, retiring after more than a decade in power. Before handing over power Kibaki circled the stadium waving to crowds from an open topped vehicle and accompanied by a guard of honour. Heads of state of Kenya’s neighbours watching the ceremony included Ethiopia’s Hailemariam Desalegn, Somalia’s Hassan Sheikh Mohamud, South Sudan’s Salva Kiir, Tanzania’s Jakaya Kikwete and Uganda’s Yoweri Museveni. Western nations, many of whom have a policy of only “essential contact” with ICC indictees, have said they sent ambassadors to the ceremony. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2013/04/uhuru-kenyatta-takes-oath-as-kenyan-president/ |
By Uduma Kalu & Prince Osuagwu It is arguable whether the late British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher was regarded as a friend of Africa or not. But obviously her policies towards the continent were viewed with anger and condemnation. More so, her son, Mark, was jailed for plotting a coup against the government of Equatorial Guinea. Margaret Thatcher No wonder when she visited Lagos, Nigeria on January 7, 1988, she was greeted with protests. Although the protest was peaceful, the trade union leaders burned the British flag However, the demonstration in Nigeria was mainly against Britain’s support for apartheid in South Africa. Thatcher had come from Kenya after three successful days. Nigeria was the final leg of her African tour but she was to meet a critical crowd including the military government, which was in power at the time and the vocal press. For the first time Thatcher was forced to admit that Britain would do more to help dislodge Apathied in South Africa. But the quintessential Thacher was as diplomatic as ever in responses to the allegations and protests. Hear her: “You gave me a full account of Nigeria’s demanding economic recovery programme, for which I expressed full support. And we also discussed a number of wider African and international problems. I believe— and I hope you will agree— that we have as a result taken an important step in removing any remaining misunderstandings between Nigeria and Britain, and in putting our relations on a thoroughly sound and friendly footing. One aspect of our relations which is particularly important to us, and, I believe, to you, is the military one. Our links are substantial and long-standing. You and I devoted some time to discussing them today, and I told you of our offer to provide financial assistance for Nigeria’s military training needs. “Over the last two years, we have watched with interest and sympathy your efforts to relaunch Nigeria’s economy on a sounder footing. On South Africa, she said, “Similar patience and persistence will be needed in tackling one of the most fundamental problems facing this continent and the world, a problem which arouses intense feeling in Britain as well as in Nigeria: that of apartheid in South Africa. I know how strongly I would feel if I were discriminated against because of the colour of my skin, and I therefore understand the anger and the frustration felt by others. “Apartheid is a repulsive and a detestable system; a deep affront to human dignity and basic human rights. In its place we want to see a just society with a non-racial, representative system of government, under which all South Africans enjoy full political rights. There is no difference between us in wanting to see that achieved. But the idea that the collapse of apartheid can be achieved by a concerted push from outside to destroy the South African economy is, I believe, an illusion. Punitive pressures would make the problems worse and multiply beyond all recognition the hardships already suffered by black South Africans and their children. Further these pressures would do untold damage to the economies of South Africa’s neighbouring states, and do corresponding harm to the well-being and hopes of their peoples”. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2013/04/remembering-thatchers-nigeria-visit-in-1988/ |
Truth they said is bitter!!! But hmmm Okupe! My hand no dey oo |
By Taye Obateru Jos: About 25 people are believed to have been killed at Zango village in Wase LGA of Plateau State as ethnic militia engaged in fresh hostilities. The killings which is believed to be a continuation of hostilities between the Tarok and the Fulani left several casualties on both sides. It was learn that armed militia invaded Wase town yesterday afternoon but were repelled by the town’s vigilante members who pursued and killed many of them. “Shortly after we completed Zuhur prayers we heard gunshots being fired into our community and everybody started running, but we were able to chase the militants away and burnt their camps around the area. “Five of our youths were killed and we brought back their corpses while I saw over 20 corpses that do not belong to us”, Safi Sambo, a youth leader from Wase was quoted as saying. A Tarok traditional ruler, Jessey Pyenkwam, was also quoted as confirming that much of Zango, a Tarok settlement, had been razed. According to him, “It’s sad that this crisis has taken this turn; it is even more sad that it is being seen as a Tarok-Fulani confrontation because both communities need each other.” Spokesman of the Special Task Force (STF) in the state Captain Salisu Mustapha confirmed that there had been attacks around Wase but could not give the exact number of those killed |
dasparrow: Though I am not Yoruba, I just want to say that this child molestation issue is a Nigerian problem. Many if not most Nigerian bred males are perverts/pedo*philes. Nigerian society is a chauvinist society where females are seen as fair game thereby making it one of the worse countries if not worst country to live in as a female.You are on point but the case is alarming in Yoruba land, as if their life depend on it |
am talkin: Which one come be south west?South west na Yoruba peeps. Oduduwa descendants |
The Ogun State Ministry of Women Affairs has begun investigation into the alleged rape incident at the Light of Hope Orphanage, Akute. The Director of the orphanage, identified simply as Mr. Atunde was arrested last Wednesday by Zone 2 Police Command for allegedly having sex with two minors. Atunde was accused of having sex with two of the minors (names withheld), after one of them showed up at her school, unable to walk properly, with blood dripping down her legs. The 13-year-old claimed Atunde forced her to have sex with him. The school authorities immediately notified Project Alert on Violence Against Women, a non-governmental organisation, which in turn notified the Zone 2 through a petition. PUNCH Metro gathered on Saturday that the orphanage had been visited by officials of the ministry. The Commissioner of Women Affairs, Mrs. Elizabeth Sonubi, told PUNCH Metro on the telephone that the ministry had convened a meeting of orphanages in the state. She said, "We would like to know if they are registered and when the registration was done. As for Light of Hope Orphanage, we have begun investigation. Our officials have visited the place but I will need a complete report before making any statement. "I am aware that the accused has already been arrested. We need to take proactive measures so that the other children in the orphanage don't suffer. For now though, we are still investigating." Currently, about 22 children live at the orphanage, most of whom are minors. As at press time, it was unclear if Atunde had regained his freedom from police custody. Sources told PUNCH Metro that as of Friday last week, Atunde was still trying to perfect his bail conditions. A source said, "I know he was still trying to fulfill his bail conditions as of Friday last week. However, I cannot say if he was successful in doing that or not." There was no response from the Zone Two Police Public Relations Officer, Mr. Femi Balogun. He did not reply the calls or text messages sent to his phone. But out correspondent learnt on Sunday that Atunde secured his bail on Saturday |
This is wicked! I know this three guys oo |
The Lagos State Police Command has arrested a trader in Alaba International Market, Anthony Nwogu, for attempting to kill his colleague, Afam Anazodo, in Isheri area of the state. According to police authorities, Nwogu and another person at large on March 21, 2013, set out to kill Anazodo at his home when policemen stopped them for another offence. It was learnt that after interrogation, Nwogu also confessed that he was going to murder Anazodo, he described as a wicked businessman. A police source said, "In the afternoon of March 21, Nwogu and another person he identified as Oyinbo, were attempting to snatch a car at gunpoint around Satellite Town when policemen sighted them. On seeing the policemen, they threw a gun they were using into the nearby bush and fled. "Nwogu was later arrested while the other guy escaped. Upon interrogation, he confessed that they were on their way to murder Anazodo, adding that they needed the vehicle for transport. "He also confessed that the gun was licensed but did not belong to him." Nwogu said Anazodo deserved to be killed because of the wicked manner which he operated his business. He said, "I own four shops in Alaba Market where I sell label compact discs. However, Afam (Anazodo) outsells us through his wicked schemes. We had reported him to policemen, but he always managed to go scot- free while our business suffered. "One day, I approached another colleague of mine, Nnaemeka Njoku, who owns a licensed gun. I told him that he should lend me the gun and that I wanted to use it for an operation. He agreed but said I would have to give him my car as collateral and he would return it to me after I had returned the gun. "I had planned with Oyinbo that we would storm Afam's house and kill him. I don't know how to use a gun so Oyinbo agreed that he would pull the trigger. On our way to Afam's house, we decided that it would be better if we used a stolen car to carry out our operation to avoid being traced. It was while we were trying to snatch a car that policemen arrested me." PUNCH Metro learnt that the owner of the gun, Njoku, had also been arrested by policemen at Area E Command. It was learnt that upon searching his home, policemen also recovered a bulletproof vest. Njoku, who claimed to own seven shops in the same market, said he had no hand in the crime as he only lent Nwogu his gun. "My pump-action gun is licensed. I have seven shops and I import kitchen utensils. I did not join them in the operation and I should be released," he said. The spokesperson for the state police command, Ngozi Braide, said the suspects would soon be charged to court. "A double-barrelled gun was recovered from them and they will be charged with attempted murder," she said. http://mobile.punchng.com/output.php?link=http://www.punchng.com/metro/police-foil-traders-plot-to-kill-colleague/ |

[quote author=ndu_chucks]@OP,sir, your epistle is a few years too late. Why did you not ask this question before the amnesty given to MEND and the youths of SS region? The truth of the matter is that the amnesty program which was implemented in the SS, in favour of MEND, is a great success, by any measure. It significantly reduced the killings, kidnappings, and negative economic impacts. It is time to support the President in his latest effort at resolving the Boko Haram issue. I fully expect your support.[/quote]Equating BH and MEND is insensitive |
Gamji007: No my friend, amnesty isn't the best solution, but every other methods have been tried and no positive result achieved. Of all the possible measures that could bring peace, I believe amnesty should be part of it, and thus,should be considered.You are a BIG BLACK FOOL by comparing ND militants with Boko Haram. Which alternatives have failed against BH? Have FG treated BH like terrorists they are? Guy Nigerian are not fools, we are watching..... So far money for the said amnesty will come from selling cattle and ground nut, no problem with that but if!!! |
clip: Please note, I am not in support of amnesty for Boko Haram. But the question is, what alternative do we have as a country to solve this problem?The best alternative is GEJ to declare full military action against BH as it was in Mali their headquarter now |
Oga Jona, you are the number 1 evil derailing this country. All your policies this days are evils. Imagine your state pardon to criminals, amnesty to killers? Oga Jona, a.k.a "slow motion" depart from iniquity you that call Gods name |
Make Tinubu go siddon joor! Waten de worry am self? |
Waiting de do this Kogi people self? They want war abi? Make them no worry, they will soon see am |
