Despite her good family background and good education, she has a problem keeping her volatile temper in check.

A robbery suspect and ex-convict, Wasami Dennis, 32, has made a confessional statement to the operatives of the Rapid Response Squad (RRS), that it was easier for him to operate in Ghana than Nigeria because Ghanaians are not as security conscious as Nigerians.

He made the confession when the police arrested him in Lagos in his hideout in Agbole Orile in Lagos, southwest Nigeria.
The trans-border robbery suspect, who hails from Abraka town, Delta State, was released almost a year ago from Kirikiri prison after he was convicted for a break-in robbery incident in Festac, Lagos, Nigeria.
“I was released from prison about a year ago. I was caught in possession of a stolen laptop from Ghana along with three machetes hidden inside the walls of the hideout,” he narrated.

He added that he operated more in Ghana than Nigeria, stressing that Ghanaians never challenged him in any of his operations.

In his statement, he said: “I was an expert at break-in robbery. I operated in Ghana, along west Africa Coast, breaking into people’s houses and making away with their properties and personal effects like mobile phones, laptops and jewelry. I used to bring the stolen items to Nigeria to sell. I have a ready market for them in Lome and Lagos.”

Wasami pointed out that he has repented from his old ways, emphasizing that he turned a new leaf shortly after he was released from Kirikiri Prison.
He maintained that his four months imprisonment in Kirikiri opened his eyes to so many things.

“Those two machetes found inside my apartment in Agbole Orile belonged to Area Boys operating in a garage nearby. They kept them there for whenever there is crisis among them. These boys are called Spartacus. They are trouble makers. They are always at the junction. I don’t know anything about it and I never knew they were there.

“For now, I work in Lagos Island where I help connect people who want to buy children’s clothing to sellers. I earn commission from this and that is how I earn my living,” he said.

Wasami suspect explained how he found his way to Lagos. “I was in Sapele Technical College before I dropped out of the school. I came back to Lagos to learn music and Sound Engineering at Alade Estate, Allen in Ikeja. After this, my father opened a shop for me, where I was managing before things were a bit difficult for me.

“Shortly after this, I decided to go into house breaking and stealing to survive, and I was into this for about six years. I have operated in more than five houses in Lagos here. All the houses are in Festac area because I know about the area very well,” he said.

He continued: “My major operations were in Ghana because Ghanaians are not security conscious unlike Nigeria where security is tight. In Ghana, nobody would challenge you. All the items that I stole are from Ghana. I did sell some in Lome and some in Lagos. I have a large number of people that buy the stolen goods from me in Lagos.
“Amongst those I sold the items to were Qudus, I.K, Hapier, Stanley and Kelvin. If I have large quantities of items I want to dispose, Qudus was always the right man for me to call. He would come to me, collect the items, sell them and return the money.”

Wasami further narrated: “another accomplice simply identified as I.K., buys stolen items in large quantity too from me. He once had a shop in Church Street junction, Oshodi but presently, he has relocated to China.

“Amongst the items that I have stolen before, the laptop found with me was the only one that remained with me because it has been a long time I went for operation. My last operation was in Festac. It was the one that led to my arrest and consequently my imprisonment at Kirikiri. Since I came back, I have never gone into breaking and stealing.”

Meanwhile, operatives of the Police have begun a manhunt for the suspect’s stolen goods buyers. The operatives are on the trail of at least three buyers mentioned by the suspects.

The suspect is currently helping the police with information that could lead to the arrest of his accomplices.

The image maker in charge of the Lagos State police command, Joe Offor confirmed the arrest of the suspect to newsmen and reiterated the commitment of the police in the state to reduce crime to its barest minimum.

Detectives attached to the Inspector General of Police Special Intelligence Response Team (SIRT) have arrested suspected arms dealers who supplied Niger Delta militants cum robbers that attacked banks at Lekki, Ikorodu and Festac in Lagos State and Agbara area of Ogun State.

The police arrested eight suspects, including an Army lance corporal, for allegedly supplying arms and ammunition to the bank robbers. Aside the arrest of the arms suppliers, SIRT also arrested seven members of the robbery gang.

The crackdown on the arms suppliers was led by Mr. Abba Kyari, a Chief Superintendent of Police and officials of Defence Intelligence. Six automatic pump action rifles, a pistol and some cartridges were recovered from the suspects.

Detectives gathered that most of the arms sold to the robbers were used for bank robberies, kidnapping and pipeline vandalism. A member of the robbery gang told SIRT operatives that his gang received large supplies of arms and ammunition from the soldier.

The soldier was posted to Borno State to fight the Boko Haram. It was also revealed that the soldier used to conceal weapons inside food items heading to Lagos from Borno. The gang, which was also involved in pipeline vandalism at Ikorodu and Ijegemo areas of Lagos, would receive the ‘goods’ at a designated venue. The gang would later credit the soldier’s bank account. The robbers used to come through the waterways, dressed in military camouflage uniforms. They had attacked different banks, where they carted away millions of naira after blowing up banks entrance doors with dynamites.

In most of their operations, they killed women, children and policemen. According to the police, the eight suspects, Opeyemi Balogun, Ayodeji Famileye, Michael Adebayo, Edward Paul, Bayo Olaoye, Ahmed Mosuru, Olamilekan Omopeji and Emmanuel Ebo (the soldier), were picked at various locations in Lagos, Ogun, Oyo and Borno states.

A police source said: “The lance corporal was picked at his duty post in Maiduguri, Borno State by men of the Defence Intelligence. The officials received intelligence report of his activities from the police.

He is currently undergoing interrogation at the Defence Headquarters, Abuja.” The arms suppliers were alleged to have sold no fewer than 15 automatic pump action rifles, a pistol and several cartridges to the gang members.

Stating their own side, the arms suppliers insisted they did not know the arms and ammunition bought from them would be used for robbery. According to them, they thought the robbers were soldiers as they were normally seen clad in military fatigue.

Famileye, 40, the link between the robbers and arms dealers, said he sold an automatic rifle to the gang for N230,000 and he made over N60,000 on each rifle.

He said: “I used to demand extra N30,000 from the gang to procure firearms’ licence for each rifle sold to the gang. I’m not an arms dealer. I have a friend in Oyo State, Mike. He sells arms. I don’t know whether he is a licensed dealer or not.

“In 2012, during the fuel subsidy protest in Lagos, I went to Ikorodu to buy fuel and met Opeyemi Balogun. Balogun sold fuel to me and during our conversation; he told me that he was into security.”

According to the reports, the pastor who is the General Overseer of a pentecostal church in the area and married with children, is a randy man who slept with many ladies in his church, both married and single till he got his fingers burnt.

Strong indications have emerged that the December 31 deadline given to MTN Nigeria to pay the $3.4 billion fine imposed on it by the telecoms regulator may be extended again. The sanction relates to the refusal of the country’s largest telecoms network to deactivate 5.1 unregistered Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) on its network between August and September.

The telecoms company, which was initially sanctioned $5.2 billion but later had its initial deadline of November 17 deadline extended indefinitely by the telecoms regulator pending the conclusion of negotiations. The regulator subsequently slashed the fine by 25 per cent, bringing the current fine payable to $3.4 billion with a new deadline of December 31 to make the payment. Fresh investigation by New Telegraph at the weekend, however, revealed that public expectations that the erring telecoms firm would pay the money on Thursday this week, when the new deadline expires, may be dashed.

This followed the decision of the telecoms company to seek judicial determination in the case. Already, the Minister of Communications, Mr. Adebayo Shittu, has indicated that the court would have to determine the rest of the case going forward as the case is currently subjudice.

MTN Nigeria had on Friday, December 18 said it had instructed its lawyers to proceed with an action in the High Court in Lagos to challenge the large fine imposed by the NCC. MTN said the company had “thoroughly and carefully considered” the matter, including a review of the circumstances leading to the fine and letters received from the NCC, and had “resolved that the manner of the imposition of the fine and the quantum thereof is not in accordance with the NCC’s powers”. Noting certain limitations on action in line with the lis pendens rule (pending legal action), MTN added that it would continue to engage with the Nigerian authorities to try to reach an amicable resolution that was in the best interests of all parties.

Meanwhile, Shittu, who spoke on the sideline of a visit to Omatek Ventures, as part of his official visit to stakeholders in the Information and Communications Technology (ICT) sector, told our correspondent that “nobody wants the downfall of MTN or any other company whether local or international in the country.”

He noted that because the case was already in court, “it is difficult to comment on such matter”, stressing: “However, the ministry will await the determination of the court before any further action will be taking on the matter”, he stated. Shittu said no operator has been specifically targeted but that it was onus on service providers to understand and obey rules and regulations that govern their operations in the country.

Speaking in the wake of the court action by MTN, the minister had remarked that while MTN has the right to seek the court’s interpretation if it feels unsatisfied with the action of the regulator, “nothing would stop the government action on the fine”, saying, “Nigeria won’t consider an extension to the deadline.” Efforts to speak with MTN yesterday proved abortive as calls made to the officials of the telecoms company were not picked.

However, one of the sources in the Corporate Affairs Department of the telecoms firm, said “The issue has become a court matter and it is difficult to comment on this sensitive case and I will advise you wait till the Thursday December 31 to see what will happen or until the court determines the case.”

Sources at NCC also were uncertain on what would likely happen this week. While some officials, who spoke on anonymity on phone with New Telegraph yesterday, believe the December 31 remains unchanged, others cited the court action already initiated by MTN Nigeria as likely reason that might render the December 31 ineffective.

Meanwhile, the President, Association of Telecoms Companies of Nigeria (ATCON), Mr. Lanre Ajayi, who was also careful in commenting on the matter, said: “The case will be determined by the court; so let’s just leave it at that to avoid making comments that are prejudicial or could lead to contempt of court.”

President Muhammadu Buhari has cut down the number of vehicles in the presidential motorcade, sources told Daily Trust.

The sources said this is part of the measures aimed at reducing the cost of governance.

However, Daily Trust findings have shown that Senate President Bukola Saraki and House of Representatives Speaker Yakubu Dogara’s motorcades have remained unchanged.

The president moves in a motorcade of about 12 vehicles as counted by our reporters recently. The senate president and the speaker’s convoys comprise of an average of 10 vehicles each.
Former President Goodluck Jonathan maintained not less that 23 cars in his motorcade.

The highest number of vehicles in Buhari’s ministers’ convoys is four while the lowest number is two as observed by our reporters.
On the eve of inaugurating his ministers last month, Buhari warned his ministers-designate to avoid large convoys, long protocol and retinue of aides.

The president gave this directive at the end of the two-day retreat he organised for the new ministers at the Presidentail Villa in Abuja.

Speaking on behalf of the ministers, Minister of Labour Dr Chris Ngige said the new government “will be running a lean economy because we are going to block areas of leakages. Retinue of aides, protocol staff and large convoys of cars are things that will not fly in this administration.”

Checks by our reporters revealed that there are 12 cars in Buhari’s convoy. Our correspondents observed this at the Aso Rock Presidential Villa in Abuja on December 7 shortly after the president arrived from a function.

The president’s convoy at that time just arrived from the Shehu Musa Yar’adua International Conference Centre where he attended the public presentation of the book “From Opposition to Governing Party: Nigeria’s APC Merger Story” written by Minister of Science and Technology Ogbonnaya Onu.

The convoy included eight Mercedes cars, two BMW cars, one black Range Rover Sports Utility Vehicle, and one pick-up vehicle of the Federal Road Safety Commission (FRSC).

There is the likelihood that the president may have other cars of security details.
Not long after he took office President Buhari turned down a request by senior government officials to buy new cars worth N400 million.

He said at the time that the ones he inherited from former President Goodluck Jonathan were good enough for him to use.
The convoy of the Senate President Saraki has a total of eight cars, our reporters observed. They are Mercedes Benz S500, one staff car, and the other one serves as spare.

Also on the convoy of the senate president are two security vehicles, two jeeps, and two other cars that ferry his aides.
The convoy has two power bikes. It was observed that the convoy of Saraki is longer when going for functions outside the National Assembly.

Speaker Dogara moves around with over eight different cars in his convoy, Daily Trust observed.

Of the eight cars, there are two S600 V12 Mercedes Benz, which serve as the staff cars. Also in Dogara’s convoy are two Land Cruiser SUVs, two police Hilux vans, one Camry LE and a Peugeot 406. There are also two dispatch riders that usually move in front of the speaker’s convoy.

It was observed that the two Hilux vans are usually occupied by officers of the Nigeria Police attached to the speaker, while the two Land Cruiser SUVs are occupied by other security details attached to the speaker.

The Camry and the Peugeot 406 are occupied by other aides to the speaker, who follow him in most of the places he goes.
Also, our correspondents observed that Dogara’s deputy Yussuf Suleimon Lasun’s convoy comprises of an S600 Mercedes Benz staff car, two Hilux vans, two SUVs and a Camry sedan with two dispatch riders.

Even former governors who are now in Buhari’s cabinet who are used to elaborate convoys and protocol, are now using very lean convoys.

Minister of Power, Works and Housing Babatunde Raji Fashola has about five vehicles in his convoy. The former Lagos state governor is heading three ministries now collapsed into one.

Our reporter observed that the minister’s car port at the works ministry has three Land Cruiser SUVs and one Prado SUV with some of them bearing private number plates. It has three black and white pilot Hilux vans.

The Prado most times is used by the security detail attached to the minister.
The other car port which seems to be for the Minister of State, Mr. Mustapha Shehuri was observed to have two Prado SUVs as well, and one Land Cruiser SUV during the early office hours yesterday.

Being three ministries earlier, Daily Trust observed that each minister then had a minimum of one Toyota Land Cruiser Sports Utility Vehicle (SUV) and another Toyota Prado SUV.

The Attorney General of the Federation (AGE) and minister of justice Abubakar Malami SAN, has three vehicles in his convoy. They are a Hilux van and two Land cruiser SUVs.

Education minister Malam Adamu Adamu has three vehicles which include a Toyota Hilux van, a Land cruiser SUV and a white sedan.

The minister of communication Adebayo Shittu’s has three vehicles in his convoy.
Daily Trust reporters observed that when the minister attended his first official assignment, the eNigeria Conference on November 17, he came with three vehicles: a Prado jeep, a Hilux van and another ministry staff bus.

The new FCT minister Malam Muhammad Musa Bello moves with only three vehicles in his convoy. They are a pilot van, Land Cruiser SUV and a back up van.

The new Minister of State for Industry, Trade and Investment, Aisha Abubakar, moves in a convoy of two vehicles.
Daily Trust observed recently that the minister in charge of the Budget and National Planning ministry Udoma Udo Udoma, moves in a convoy of three vehicles.

Dr Ibe Kachikwu, the Minister of State for Petroleum Resources is driven in a black-tinted Range Rover Sport 2014. Two black-coloured Toyota Prado SUVs and a Toyota Hilux van were part of his convoy when he was spotted in one public function.

The Minister of Information and Culture was on November 20, seen using six vehicles, four of which were Toyota Land cruiser SUVs and two Hilux vans.

ISN’T it amazing what torrent of scandal a little event like being pregnant can unleash? For the four years Lisa was married to Lekan, her husband, she tried all she could to get pregnant. At first she thought it was due to her reproductive organs malfunctioning. After series of tests, it was Lekan’s turn to have his fertility investigated. It was an awful blow to the couple when he got the news he had a low sperm count.

“Lisa was devastated,” Funke, her elder sister and a mother of three children had said after she got the news. “I wish I could do something to help my sister … “. “Something like what?” I joked. “Get another man to perform the magic her husband couldn’t?” A few months later, Funke had come to mine, a bit angry and confused.

“Lisa came for dinner last night with Lekan,” she said. “I was in the kitchen sorting out the dirty plates when Lekan crept up behind me. Pressing hard against my back, he whispered. ‘Don’t you realise how much I want you?’ Horrified, I pushed him away and rushed back to the others. I’d thought that would be the end of it, but it wasn’t. Some few weeks later, I bumped into him at a supermarket near the house and he suggested we went to the nearest fast-food spot to have a bite. He said he was desperate to talk to me.

“At first I hesitated, but he was my brother-in-law afterall. He and Lisa had been married for a while and they seemed happy in spite of their ‘problem’. Over lunch, he explained he’d been quite depressed after he’d been told of his low sperm count.

That’s why I had behaved badly at your house,’ he said. `I guess I was trying to prove I was a man.’ I felt really sorry for him and tried to console him. A few months after this incident, Lekan phoned me and it was obvious he was in a dreadful state. Kunle, my husband, was on night shift at work, so when Lekan begged me to come over to his place, I agreed. He was in a sorry state when I got to his place. He said he suspected his wife was having an affair, and after a mighty row, he’d hit her and she’d left to go to her mum’s.

“As I made the right soothing sound, he poured out his heart, told me how strained his marriage had become. I felt myself sympathising with him, even though I felt disloyal to my sister. Two bottles of wine later, I was the one revealing worries about my marriage. Kunle had been a bit preoccupied of late and I told Lekan he too might be having an affair. He shook his head in disbelief as I told him Kunle seldom paid me attention. ‘I don’t understand how anyone could neglect a beautiful, kind, loving woman like you”, he sympathised. Before I knew it, we were all over each other … months of frustration were released as our bodies got entwined. The sex was the most fulfilling I’d had for months.

“I didn’t feel any guilt, especially when Kunle wasn’t home when I arrived. He’d given some of his suspicious excuses on the answering machine. So, it was with little or no guilt that I continued my affair with my brother-in-law. Each time Lisa phoned for a chat, or to visit the house, I fobbed her off in case my secret was revealed if I saw her face-to-face. Then came the news that Lisa was finally pregnant. I was really happy for her as I hugged and congratulated her. She didn’t seem all that happy to see me but I put it down to her current state. Or did she suspect I was sleeping with her husband? She couldn’t have, we’d been really careful.

“Lisa was almost due when I ran into a close relative who worked as a matron in a private hospital. I hadn’t seen her for ages and she was full of praise for my husband who introduced Lisa to their hospital. ‘He even brought her a few times,’ she blabbed,’ and helped with some of her bills. I tried to introduce myself to him but he was always busy with the hospital’s director who was his friend. I’m glad Lisa’s finally pregnant …’ On and on she went. The way she kept peering at me, I knew she was dying for me to give something away. Condemn my husband’s behaviour perhaps? Or let on I knew nothing about Kunle’s involvement with Lisa’s pregnancy? Why on earth would he put himself out so much for her?

“When I got home, Kunle was out as usual. Gave me enough time to look through all his things. Eventually, I found one or two bills from the hospital. That was when it dawned on me that my husband couldn’t have been that involved in Lisa’s pregnancy if he wasn’t part of it himself. I was furious but had my wits around me. This wasn’t the time for being confrontational. My sister wanted a baby so badly she didn’t mind getting one from my husband! And where did Lekan feature in all this? The poor man was virtually floating on air when Lisa got pregnant. He was relieved that his sperm count wasn’t too low to father a child. So what blow would I be dealing him by telling him the truth? And what about my marriage that was now on shaky grounds, would
my ‘True confession’ save it?

From then on, I knew I had no marriage – all I’m determined to do now is look after my children and see them to adulthood. I hate my sister to the point I could kill her. But then, I’d slept with her husband too. If I were in her shoes, would I do the same? – Her daughter even looked like one of mine when Lisa had her baby. Thank goodness it wasn’t a boy that would look like my husband. Heavens only know how many controversial births exist all over the world …..”

A Lagos-based senior doctor has died shortly after attending to a patient.
Close relations blamed the death of Dr Akingbade of Veritas Clinics Limited, College Road, Ifako-Ijaiye, Lagos on stress, but nonetheless said he had a history of hypertension.

The deceased worked at Lagos State University Teaching Hospital (LASUTH) for 15 years before retiring as a Senior Medical Officer in 2004, after which he set up his private clinic.

Sunday Vanguard learnt that the senior doctor suddenly died in his office in the clinic, after attending to the patient.

One of the nurses on duty at Veritas Clinics Limited on the fateful day, Mrs Toyin Ifesan, narrated: “Our boss died at about 10.30pm shortly after he had closed for consultation.
He went to see a patient on admission.

Thereafter, he retired to his office and sat down. A nurse later went in there to ask him to go upstairs, where we have sleeping facilities, to sleep, having been working since morning.

“On getting to the office, the nurse spoke to him but she got no response. She then pushed him, only to find that Dr Akingbade had passed on. The situation attracted everybody in the clinic”.

Nurse Ifesan went on: “He was not sick before death. The only thing we noticed was that, on that day, he was not jovial as he used to be. Unlike him, he talked to the staff without looking at their faces. He looked at the floor while talking to the staff.”

Saying Akingbade was well liked by his staff and patients, the nurse stated: “Our late boss was a very jovial person. He joked a lot with the staff as well as with patients before attending to them. He would ask the patient where he came from, and when he told the place the patient came from, always had one or two things to say about the patients place and people.

“He was a problem solver when it came to illnesses. If you cry to his office, you will smile coming out.

“He hardly attended social functions because of the fear that a critically ill patient that may be bought to his clinic may die before returning. So, he was always in the clinic most of the time.

“Even anytime he hired a doctor to help attend to patients, most of patients still preferred his consultation because of his wide experience. Some would wait, no matter how long, to see him. Others would go and come back.”

Another nurse at Veritas, Patricia Nwabusi, described Dr Akingbade as a father to everybody, but added: “Daddy always said he would not like the type of old age that would warrant wearing diaper or to be carried from hospital to hospital for treatment.”

The last born of the deceased, Akinola Akingbade, who spoke to Sunday Vanguard, said his father was committed to his work and always ready to sacrifice whatever he could to help patients recover from ailments.

“He didn’t like people suffering in avoidable situation,”the son said.

Sunday Vanguard learnt that his colleagues at LASUTH include Doctors Oshinuga, Wilberforce Aina, Oluseye, Amosu, Adeyemi, Ibirogba and Udofia.

Akingbade would be buried on January 7 after a funeral service at the City of the Lord Church, Ifako-Ijaiye.

The most wanted sexually predator in Ebony state Nigeria has been finally arrested.
This was made known to the press this morning by the Ebonyi Police Command saying that they have arrested a middle-aged man for allegedly defiling nine children aged between six and ten years old.

NAN reported that the suspect, a father of three, allegedly carried out the act at Ezza South Local Government Area of Ebonyi state, where he lived in the same compound with the victims.

The command’s Public Relations Officer, Mr George Okafor, confirmed the arrest, adding that the matter was under investigation. “The parents of the victims have, however, failed to bring them for proper medical investigation; we expect them to have done that for long. The matter would be charged to court after the conclusion of investigations; we promise the public that the matter would be pursued to its conclusion,” he said.

The Chairman of the Family Law Centre in Abakaliki, Mrs Elizabeth Nwali, said the centre petitioned the state Criminal Investigation Department about the matter. “ This followed the complaints that the suspect, who was handed over to the Police at Onueke, headquarters of Ezza South, was discharged the same day without proper interrogation with him.” she said.

One of the victims told NAN that the suspect defiled her five times and usually carried out the act in secluded areas, including inside a car. “When I am deep asleep most times, he will carry me to a corner of house and insert something from his body inside me after removing my clothes and his own, ” she said.

Some parents of the victims told NAN that they became aware of the act when their children started complaining of severe pains in their private parts.

“The suspect admitted to the offence when confronted by members of the community and other stakeholders. “We suspect strongly that he uses the contents of the handkerchief used in cleaning their bodies for ritual purposes; our children have not being themselves since the incidents occurred, ” they said.

When I asked her why she brings her friends to my house in all her visits, she told me that she wants them to see how handsome I am..when I told her that her reasons are ridiculous, she grew angry, and I love this girl...and she is not picking my calls for two days now.

Please Nairalanders, what should I do?

Am I in love? Or has STUPIDITY taken over ME?

Now that you even mentioned Fashola and Amaechi, some people criticised the presidency for appointing them as ministers when they had not satisfactorily dealt with the petitions against them. How do you react to that?

[You see; if the PDP says something is good, know that it is bad. If the party says something is bad, know it is very good. PDP is the most corrupt institution this nation has ever seen. The President is a very intelligent man, knowing they were trying to deprive him of the best hands to run his government, he quietly allowed the PDP to fool itself. After it had finished fooling itself, the President went and took the best and the best, which are the likes of Fashola, Amaechi, Dr. Chris Ngige, and the others. The Minister of Agriculture, Chief Audu Ogbeh, was the best minister in Shehu Shagari’s government at the time. The President picked a galaxy of stars as his ministers and we are going to see results

Nigeria’s Defense Minister, Mansur Muhammad Dan-Ali, on Thursday disclosed that some civilians who have been fighting alongside the Joint Task Force against Islamist insurgents will soon be integrated into the armed forces.

This may not the best of times for Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as there are indications that a section of its members have decided to pull out of the party to float a new mega party.

Confirming this indication, the spokesman of the proposed new party, Chief Perry Opara said that a meeting which was held in respect to the formation of the new mega party, attracted reasonable turnout and members canvassed the formation of a masses movement that will provide a voice for the masses, since PDP can no longer be a credible opposition party.

Opara, who was Nigeria’s first national chairman of Inter-Party Advisory Council (IPAC) explained that they are disappointed that the umbrella of PDP has torn beyond repairs and the house is infected, which has made the image of PDP to be presently irredeemable.

He said, “The leadership of the party is embroiled with corruption charges, a situation where BOT Chairman, NWC members and top leaders of the party are facing corruption charges, credible men can no longer remain in a stinking house.

“I assure Nigerians that as the probe continues, it will be difficult for leaders and members of PDP to visit Wadata Plaza. PDP has become a symbol of corruption, impunity and lawlessness. It will be difficult for PDP to win future elections in Nigeria.

“In the last election, party functionaries striped aspirants of their hard -earned monies. Some aspirants spent more than N500 million just to get party ticket and after collecting huge sums from aspirants, they still denied them tickets. What a fraud.

We have identified few elders who are credible enough to lead and they will be identified in due course.”

The ban will remain until the trial of most of the accused persons has been concluded.

Hundreds of passengers yesterday escaped death when an overcrowded Lagosbound train from Ogun State collided with a truck at Shogunle Railway Crossing in Lagos.

A News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) correspondent aboard the train reports that the incident occurred about 8a.m. The refuse clearing truck had tried to cross the railway line ahead of the approaching train, but was unsuccessful.

The train driver, seeing the partial blockage of the track by the truck, reduced speed, an effort which reduced the impact of the collision and saved the train from derailing.

Despite the speed reduction, the train hit the back of the truck which was still on the track. Some passengers were injured as a result of the impact. Following the impact, the truck hit the barrier at the crossing, which also hit a nearby electric pole.

Passengers aboard the train commended the train driver for preventing it from derailing, as it continued to the Shogunle Station where some passengers alighted and others went on board.

The Director of Operations, Nigerian Railway Corporation (NRC), Mr Niyi Alli, later said that the truck had been impounded by the corporation and taken to its headquarters at Ebute Meta Junction.

The derailment disrupted the services of the corporation for the whole day leaving hundreds of its passengers heading for Kano stranded at its terminus in Ido, Lagos.
