Residents of PTI Road in Effurun, near Warri, Delta State were thrown into confusion following the mysterious death of 71-year old security guard after alleged marathon sex with a strange woman.

It was reliably gathered that the victim, identified as Borniface Madu, had received an unknown female guest last Thursday in his place of work during nightfall and allegedly had sex with her before giving up the ghost in mysterious circumstances.

Reacting, his family members and the owner of the compound where he worked have expressed shock over the incident and petitioned the police to investigate his death as he never had any signs of sickness before the incident.

But unconfirmed sources said the security guard allegedly had marathon sex with the female guest suspiciously hustling to make ends meet.

It was further learnt that the security guard was working as gateman in a compound whose owner is not always around except the younger brother who occasionally comes around to sleep in the house with his lovers.

But the police image maker in the State, DSP Celestina Kalu confirmed that the security guard was killed in marathon sex with a strange woman who allegedly sauntered into the premises for fear of security agents chasing prostitutes out of the streets of Warri adding that wrappers of the woman was found in one of the rooms.

The body of the security guard was discovered by the younger brother of the owner of the compound after his efforts to drive into the house on his return from a club house failed on the fateful night.

He was said to have reported the matter to the police station in Effurun Division prompting the police to swing into action for investigation.

On Wednesday, the Lagos State House of
Assembly postponed the inauguration of the
8th Assembly of the state. While the statement
did not give any reason for the postponement,
PREMIUM TIMES gathered from sources close
to the assembly that the postponement was
connected to the lingering tussle and ongoing
horse trading among various interests and
power blocks within the All Progressives
Congress in the state on who to replace
outgoing speaker, Adeyemi Ikufuriji,
Though the party has not officially zoned the
position to any senatorial district in the state, a
source close to top decision makers who asked
not to be named because he did not have the
authority to speak officially on the issue, told
PREMIUM TIMES it was taken for granted that
the next Speaker should come from the Lagos
Central Senatorial District.
It was assumed that since the state governor,
Akinwunmi Ambode, and his deputy, Idiat
Adebule, are from the two other senatorial
districts – Lagos East and Lagos West,
respectively, the position speaker, which is the
number three position in the state, should
come from Lagos Central.
But things appear to have fallen apart among
politicians and elected assembly members
from the Lagos Central Senatorial District who
are working at cross purposes.
Being the most experienced returning
lawmaker from Lagos Central in the assembly,
some party faithful were of the opinion that
Lanre Oshun, who is a third term returnee,
should be made the Speaker. However, his
candidacy does not have the blessing of some
party leaders who have other members they
are pushing for the same position. PREMIUM
TIMES learnt that Mr. Oshun’s seeming
independent mindedness is not doing him any
good among some of his colleagues who
perceive him as arrogant.
“The reason Lanre Oshun candidacy is not flying
is because he comes across as someone that
will not play ball, some of his peers say he’s
arrogant. He is also not someone that is likely
to run to Bourdillion to take permission to go
to toilet,” said a source close to the assembly,
explaining that Mr. Oshun is not likely to bend
to the wishes of the APC national leader, Bola
Tinubu.
There are also reports that the senator
representing Lagos Central, Oluremi Tinubu, is
against the emergence of Mr. Oshun. Sources
at the assembly said she called to annul an
agreement reached after a meeting or
stakeholders last Tuesday to make Mr. Oshun
the Deputy Speaker.
Mr. Oshun is also being overlooked by a tight-
knit purist group within the party which does
not see him as a real “Omo Eko”. This group,
which comprises politicians mainly from the
Lagos Island axis of the state, believes that Mr.
Oshun, who is from Yaba and is the
representative of Lagos Mainland II
Constituency, is not ancestrally from what they
refer to as the traditional Lagos – the original
Eko and should not be considered over those
they term as being “Omo Eko”.
“If you look at Lagos, places like Apapa, Yaba
and Ikeja are basically towns created by the
colonial government as part of Western Nigeria
and later given prominence by the federal
government,” our source said.
“So these group of influential party members
in the state, who are bent on installing only
people that fit into their definition of Omo Eko
into prominent positions, are relentlessly
working against him.”
It is believed that this group is actively plotting
to install Wasiu Eshinlokun, a lawmaker for
Lagos Island I Constituency. But his candidacy is
being met with a lot of resistance mainly
because many lawmakers think Mr. Eshinlokun,
who was last elected into the assembly in 1999,
has been away for too long to be given such a
leadership position.
The Tinubu man
The involvement of Mr. Tinubu and Mr.
Ikuforiji, who are reportedly keen on seeing
other candidates outside the Lagos Central
Senatorial District become the new Speaker,
has thickened the intrigue surrounding who
emerges the next Speaker.
Mr. Tinubu, PREMIUM TIMES learnt, is pushing
for his preferred candidate through a proxy so
as to avoid being seen as imposing someone on
the lawmakers. According to our source, the
man who protects Mr. Tinubu’s interest is
Adebayo Osinowo, aka Pepper.
“Tinubu cannot afford to be directly involved in
the tussle because it is somehow beneath him.
But we know that whatever Pepper champions
in the assembly is Tinubu’s wish. He’s Tinubu’s
mouth and ear in the Assembly.”
Mr. Osinowo is one of the most vocal
supporters of the candidacy of Modasiru Obasa,
who most likely will be named Speaker on
Monday when the Assembly is eventually
inaugurated.
On his part, Mr. Ikuforiji is vigorously pushing
for the former Deputy Whip of the Assembly,
Rotimi Abiru, to be named the Speaker. This is
understandable because Mr Abiru is the only
returning principal officer of the 7th assembly.
However, we learnt that Mr. Ikuforiji’s
influence in the assembly waned after he failed
in his gubernatorial ambition. Hence, his
support for Mr. Abiru may not carry the force
required to upstage the likes of Mr. Obasa and
Funmilayo Tejuosho.
Funilayo Tejuosho, the former Deputy Speaker
of the assembly, has never hidden her
ambition to lead the house. Her drive is also
propelled by her ambition to become the first
female Speaker of the Lagos House of
Assembly. She even indicated her interest in
the position even before the general elections.
Recently, she has granted series of interviews
in the print and electronic media aimed at
selling her candidacy. If presence in the media
was the only criterion needed to be named
Speaker of the Assembly, the position will
definitely go to her.
She is believed to have also mobilised
influential women group with the party to help
push her candidacy. But it seems the demon of
her 2009 impeachment has not been
completely exorcised. Some party members
are scared that she is inherently anti-
establishment and headstrong. However, some
of her supporters say the largely men
dominated assembly simply fell threatened by
her assertiveness.
She is perhaps the only contender calling for
the contest to be thrown open and transparent
election should be held to pick the speaker
rather than choosing a consensus candidate.
“Of course, they won’t agree to such a
proposal,” our source said. “They will want to
resolve it at the back-end before coming out to
vote because they do not want someone to
spring surprises on them.”
Efforts to confirm from the state chapter of the
party about what is being done to make sure
that the situation does not lead to friction
within its ranks were unsuccessful.
The Spokesperson of the Party, Joe Igbokwe,
did not answer several calls to his mobile
phone. Also, the state Chairman of the party,
Henry Ajumale, could not be reached as his
mobile phone was switched-off.

There are strong indications that in fulfilment
of his campaign promise to reduce the cost of
governance, President Muhammadu Buhari
may have concluded plans to slash his salary
and reduce his personal emoluments.
It was learnt that the President expected the
Vice-President and other political appointees to
take a similar decision.
Saturday PUNCH gathered in Abuja on Friday
that the President would have made his
decision public but chose to consult with his
close associates on how best to approach the
issue without being seen as dictatorial.
According to the Revenue Mobilisation
Allocation and Fiscal Commission, President
Buhari will earn a monthly salary of N3, 514,
705. He is also entitled to a regular hardship
allowance and 50 per cent of the basic salary,
which is N1,757,350.50.
There is however no information yet as to what
percentage of Buhari’s salary and emoluments
will be slashed.
But it was reliably learnt that the President
would also reduce State House budget.
Other areas being considered by the President
included appointment of aides and the
possibility of implementing the report of the
Stephen Oronsaye-led Presidential Committee
on the Rationalisation and Restructuring of
Federal Government Parastatals, Commissions
and Agencies.
Buhari, had on Tuesday sought the approval of
the National Assembly to appoint 15 special
advisers, unlike former President Goodluck
Jonathan, who had 23 special advisers and
scores of special assistants.
It was gathered that the President, who in his
inaugural speech, said the Nigerian economy
was in deep trouble, might not increase the
number of special advisers from 15 as part of
the measures to cut down cost of governance.
It was also learnt that the President might look
into the report of the Oronsaye committee and
the White Paper on it.
The committee had said that out of the existing
541 MDAs in the country, only 163 deserved to
exist.
A top member of the APC, who confided in
Saturday PUNCH, said that the President had
also concluded plans to submit some bills to
the National Assembly for the implementation
of some of these cost-saving measures.
But President Buhari had, at various fora,
faulted the budgetary process adopted by
successive Peoples Democratic Party-led
administrations over the past 16 years.
A close confidant of the President, Kaduna
State Governor, Malam Nasir El-Rufai, had in
his inaugural address to the people of the
state, announced a fifty per cent cut in his
salary and that of the deputy governor.
One of the President’s acolytes, and South East
Zonal Spokesman of the All Progressives
Congress, Osita Okechukwu told Saturday
PUNCH that, left to him alone, President
Buhari would not bat an eyelid before taking
such a decision.
He, however said, “But you see, the
circumstances now are different, he has to do a
lot of consultations because the composition of
the National Assembly means he has to consult
across party lines.
“From the little I know of him, his desire like
he said during the campaigns and afterwards, is
to reduce the cost of governance across board
and this cannot be done without consultations.
“We can’t have a situation where he will be
seen as trying to make other party members
look bad by taking a salary cut while others are
not carried along.”
He also said, “He is committed to cutting cost
across board and I see him reducing the pecks
of that office to an acceptable level and this
becomes even more compelling because of the
economic mess we have found ourselves in.”
Another associate, Mr. Rotimi Fashakin, also
told Saturday PUNCH that another area likely
to take a hit is the Presidential Air fleet which
is reported to have about 10 aircraft.
He explained that the cost of maintaining this
number of aircraft is one area that is likely to
attract the President’s attention.
According to him, the President who has
experienced governance at the highest level is
not one to do things in a hurry without
consultation and thinking them through.
Fashakin noted that critics may accuse the
President of not acting fast enough without
putting things in perspective.
He said, for example, “The President has not
taken any definite action. Ordinarily, people
will not even expect the service chiefs to still
be operating now, but because of the exposure
and maturity that we are having in
government; with a person of President
Muhammadu Buhari’s stature, he studies a
situation before taking action
“He won’t just appoint ministers to fulfil all
righteousness, he will do a thorough job and
this is a democracy which he has subscribed to.
“He promised to cut the cost of governance to
an acceptable level and this is even more so
when the economy like every other aspect of
our national life is in tatters.”
Attempts to get a reaction on issues raised
from the Senior Special Assistant to the
President on Media and Publicity, Malam Garba
Shehu, were unsuccessful.
Calls to his mobile phone did not connect while
a text message sent to him was yet to be
delivered as of the time of filing this report
(8:11pm).
It may be recalled that former President
Goodluck Jonathan-led administration had
made a provision of N348, 342,741 as its
proposal for honorarium and sitting allowance
for the State House in the 2015 budget.
The breakdown of the expenditure on travel
and transport showed that the president will be
spending N1, 306,834,350 on local travels and
transport and the sum of N621, 067,913 on
international travel and transport.
The travel bill of the president for 2014 was
higher than the provision for 2014. The 2014
budget made a provision of N2, 378,862,017
for the office of the president for local and
international travels.
For food stuff/catering materials supplies, a
provision of N142, 472,537 was made for the
office of the president.
The 2015 budget proposal included a provision
of N131, 911,315 for fuel and lubricants for the
State House. The breakdown showed that plant/
generator fuel will consume N35, 344,855;
motor vehicle fuel will consume N85, 843,802
while cooking gas/fuel will consume N10,
102,858.
For 2014, the State House received lesser
provision of N122, 855,267 for fuel and
lubricants. This was broken down into motor
vehicle fuel, N79, 950,407; plants and
generators, N33, 476,963 and cooking gas/fuel
cost, N9, 427,898.
A provision of N60, 847,647 was made for the
office of the president for advertisement and
publicity.
For the State House, N287,514,283 provision
was made for welfare packages; N174,537,975
for refreshment and meals; N215, 635,715 for
food stuff and catering services; N31,582,475
for medical expenses; and N35,495,233 for
publicity and advertisement. These provisions
are likely to be reviewed downwards

We don't regret standing with our brothers and we don't regret sinking with them. Get that into ur empty skull. #Peace

Governor Nasir El-Rufa’i of Kaduna State on
Friday said he would forfeit 50 per cent of his
salary pending when the financial situation of
the state improves.
The governor stated this in his inaugural
address, after he was sworn-in by the state
Chief Judge, Justice Tanimu Zailani in Kaduna.
He said the pay cut would also affect the
Deputy Governor, Mr. Barnabas Bala.
El-Rufa’i also declared that the administration
would “guarantee free and compulsory basic
education for every child up to JS3, regardless
of gender, religion or ethnicity.”
He said in spite of the challenges facing the
state, the administration would also “focus on
jobs, security, education, and healthcare.”
“The fact is that today Kaduna State cannot
meet its obligations without handouts from the
federal government.
“We cannot comfortably pay salaries of our
teachers and nurses and civil servants.
“And after struggling to pay salaries, we can do
little else.
“We cannot fix the schools, help our farmers,
repair our roads, or treat the sick. We have
arrived at a dead end. The patient is sick, and it
needs radical therapy.”
El-Rufa’i said the situation demanded for
“difficult decisions,” adding that political office
holders must sacrifice the comfort of their
offices for the greater good of all.
“In recognition of the difficult challenges we
face, our deputy governor and I have concluded
that the sacrifices that change requires must
begin with us.
“We have decided to take a pay cut and donate
50 percent of our salaries and allowances, until
our fiscal situation improves.
“We understand that leadership by example is
the most persuasive way to demand sacrifices
from all of us as citizens.
“We pledge to avoid ostentation and foolish
bigmanism, and to value transparency,
modesty and accountability.
On security, the governor said he would work
with law enforcement officials to drastically
reduce violent crime in the state including
“communal violence, cattle-rustling and armed
robbery.”
“We will reform the administration of justice to
ensure speedy conclusion of cases and send a
clear message that there will be sanctions for
unlawful conduct.”
He therefore solicited for maximum support
from the people of the state to enable the
administration deliver on its promises.

Have you heard of tourism

felifeli:
LOL Considering you don't even know me , 'uncouth' seems to be your major character. I wouldn't give you a job as my gateman. I swear

Immune1:
Because it is Chinese that will chauffeur hotel buses, abi Indonesians that will work in these hotels......or maybe its aliens that will be exposed to world class hotel management which will set a benchmark in hospitality abi?How are his priorities misplaced ejoh?The hospitals that are already employing and will employ more health personnels?Abi the roads that will ease logistics and reduce the average cost of doing business in the state?In case you dont know an MOU has been signed with a Chinese company by Nsik motors to assemble buses in the state; all of which will ride on the immensely enhanced transportation framework (which inspite of all that has been done more needs to be done). Have you heard of Seven energy that supplies gas to power plants in Crossriver and recently in Aba with intentions to expand to other plants in the region??If you wanna hate pls do such with a more style

barcanista:
@ Emboldened: I don't see when or where I changed my principles. In fact, I lived up to it and ensure that I follow my path in sincerity. I also can't recall when I told you or anyone that "I changed because I know more about GEJ"...that's not true! I said "Access to more information shaped my decision". My opposition to GEJ's government was due to anormalties by his administration then, but the opposition(incoming APC appeared worse). Well, beyond pdp/apc thing, I am more concerned with good governance FIRST.

Finally, there is no free money anywhere...


PS:Visca el Barcaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

felifeli:
Oh, she is a 'national disgrace', when will YOU become a national anything ? She is 'uncouth, crude...' ; just listen to yourself.

barcanista:
My sentiment exactly. I'm yet to see a thread that will boost human development in Akwa Ibom state. Good governance goes beyond beautification of capital city and hotels. The hotel looks good and will boost tourism but to me I consider it misplaced priority just like the stadium except he is running human development policies alongside the project.
