A security expert, Dr. Ona Ekhomu, has warned of an imminent terror attack on the country, asking the Federal Government to take proactive measures in the fight against insurgency.

He advised that the government should enlist the services of citizens in the war against terror to forestall a case of multiple terror attacks like it happened in Paris, France, recently.

Ekhomu, who is the President of the Association of Industrial Security and Safety Operators of Nigeria, in a statement on Monday, said recent intelligence intercepts indicated that an ISIS attack on Nigeria was imminent.

He said, “ISIS could use its Nigerian affiliate, Boko Haram, to wreak havoc here in order to signal its capability to carry out worldwide terrorist attacks and add to its stocks of fear.

“Having millions of Nigerians on the lookout for terrorists, reporting suspicious activities to the authorities, is better than 400,000 police and military personnel searching for terrorists.

“With proper enrolment, citizens can become the arrow-head in the search for terrorists as citizens are everywhere. With trained eyes, they can recognise Terrorist Attack Pre-incident Indicators in order to spot suicide bombers, bomb planters and active-shooters.”

He advised the Federal Government to adopt a colour-coded security alert system, adding that the codes could aid mass mobilisation of people to prevent terror attacks.

He said the system would also ensure that residents do not suffer “vigilance-fatigue”.
He said, “The Federal Government can adopt the color-coded National Security Alert System where green means that attack is not likely and red means imminent attack.”

The chartered security expert stressed the need for the establishment of a national three-digit emergency number, saying the multiplicity of security numbers by various security agencies “shows that we are not serious about security”.

He called for the setting up of emergency response centers in all state capitals with voice-logging recorders to enable trained professionals respond to citizens in emergency conditions.

“It is the job of government to keep citizens safe from terrorists. Political leaders need to work hard to ensure that people are kept safe from attacks, rather than the fad of visiting victims of bomb blasts and offering to pay hospital bills. The primary purpose of government is the security and welfare of citizens. Security is a primary responsibility of the modern democratic state,” he added.

He advised government at all levels to be guided by the pro-active and responsible actions of some developed countries in protecting their citizens from ISIS and other terrorist groups.

The suspect, Elias Okorie, who claimed to be an officer of the Nigerian Prison Service in Enugu State, was said to have raised a false alarm after engaging in a fight with the prostitute who he had slept with in a hotel in the area.

The nurse said she regretted being part of the kidnapping.
She said, “I learnt that Doctor paid N1m ransom to one of our members in Abeokuta before the police detectives arrested us in Enugu.

Kairat Jimoh , a middle aged woman
seeking a divorce from her husband,
Sefiu , at the Oshodi Customary Court sitting in Lagos, was in tears when she narrated how the man abandoned his family and moved in with his 18-year-old housemaid whom he rented a flat fro while she and her three children live in a one-room apartment.

Kairat told the court that the affair with the maid that has threatened their marriage of 17 years, kicked off when she traveled and the husband started
sleeping with the girl and on her return, the girl became insolent.

“Whenever I asked her to do a chore, she would look at me in the eye and tell me that she was tired. Whenever I threatened to take her back to our village, my husband would threaten to deal with me.

When I stood my grounds and sent her home, my husband threatened to kill me. My husband went behind my back and got accommodation for her three streets away from where we live.

He has become very wicked. He beats me up and would not stop until I get injuries. One night, he came back home drunk, got a knife and almost slit my throat.

I had to run out of the home to save my life. My life is endangered and as far as I’m concerned, this marriage can no longer stand because it has already broken down.

When I challenged him on why she should rent a flat for the girl while we live in a room, he told me he would chase me out of his house because I brought him bad luck.”

But Sefiu denied his wife's allegations, saying he only took the girl as his younger sister and would not try what his wife accused him of.

“I still love my wife. She should understand that men can change. But she should learn to be tolerant. I respect her and urge this court not to separate us.”

The President of the court, Mrs. R.I. Adetola, after hearing both parties, warned them to maintain the peace pending the determination of the suit which she adjourned till January 16, 2016, for further hearing.

Awolesi Ademola, 20, a cobbler, has been arrested for allegedly stabbing his friend, identified only as Akeem , to death in the Mushin area of Lagos State.

The two had been friends for some time but always had disagreements over minor issues which had led to scuffles, Punch reports.

The suspect, who had his shop around the railway line, said he started keeping Akeem at arm’s length when he began smoking hemp.
He claimed that Akeem had attacked him for no reason on Tuesday around 10pm in his home, adding that he stabbed the victim in self-defence.

He said:
“We have been friends for a long time but I chose to separate from him when he started living recklessly. He always tried to harass me even for no reason.
On that Tuesday, I was working on a shoe in my shop. I needed a knife to complete the work, so I rushed home to get a small table knife. I did not return it until the close of work that day.

On my way home, I saw Akeem standing in a corner close to my house and I just passed him. On getting home, I was told he had been there for a long time and I immediately suspected he was out for trouble; I chose not to talk to him.

Instead, I called a friend, Idris, and reported Akeem to him. He advised me not to make trouble with him. While I was seeing off Idris, who had also come to visit me that night at about 10pm, Akeem emerged from nowhere and started punching me, which was his usual way of harassing me.
When I saw he was overpowering me, I brought out the knife to scare him. But unfortunately, while we were struggling for the knife, I stabbed him in the hand.”

The suspect said when he observed that the victim started bleeding, he fled the scene.
He said a neighbour later called him on the phone to demand money for Akeem’s treatment, but since he did not have any, he could do nothing.
It was learnt that the victim was rushed to a herbal clinic, where he lost a lot of blood.

He went on:
“Our neighbours reported what happened to my father, and he called me and advised me not to come home, that he would handle the matter.

At about 5pm the next day, a woman called me saying the case was very serious. I chose to go out to see if some of my friends could help me with money.

I was on my way to a friend’s house when some guys on a motorcycle parked in front of me and asked if I was the one that stabbed Akeem. They took me to the neighbourhood where I was informed that Akeem was dead. They alleged I stabbed him with a poisonous knife."

“It was not an intentional act; he was my friend. I have known him since secondary school. I stopped relating with him because he started smoking hemp and living a bad life and my father asked me to stop being friends with him."

The Police Public Relations Officer, Joe Offor, when contacted, promised to get back, but he had yet to do so as of the time of filing this report.

Tayo Oladimeji, who was supposedly one of the suspects denied being involved. He said:
“I was at home sleeping on a Saturday morning when I heard my mum’s voice asking if I wont go to work. Reluctantly, I got up from my bed and headed towards the bathroom to take my bath when I was arrested.’’
“I don’t know anything. I was in my shop that Monday when policemen came to arrest me, saying I was involved in last Sunday’s fracas on Lagos Island. The only encounter that I had was when some unknown guys came to me at Oduduwa bus stop and collected my wristwatch.
‘’Immediately I was arrested, I called my parents but I couldn’t reach them and then police also seized my phone and brought me here (Lagos command)this morning. While I was in the police custody, I was told that Major and Paulo called my mobile phone. I don’t know the reason they were calling me.”

There has been jubilation aplenty in the home of Nojim and Mariam Bello, the couple in Ifo, a community in Ogun State, whose 17-day-old baby, Balikis, was on October 23, 2015 by Ife Yekini, a woman who had visited the mother, ostensibly to rejoice with her, following the birth of the baby.

The baby was recovered in Sango-Ota, Ogun State on November 14 and re-united with her parents, thus ending the harrowing trauma they experienced in the wake of the abduction.

Trouble began for the family when Yekini visited Mariam Bello, on the pretext of congratulating her on the birth of the child.
Baby Balikis is the result of the love relationship between 16-year-old Mariam and Nojim, 40, which began two years ago and eventually led to a pregnancy. Balikis was born on October 6 and the naming was held eight days after on October 13 at the home of Nojim’s elder brother. Three days later, Mariam returned to Nojim’s house.

But on October 23, 2015, the woman at the centre of the alleged abduction saga, Yekini, visited Mariam, who warmly welcomed her, though she had never met her in the past.
Recalling what transpired that evil day, Mariam told Sunday Sun: “When she came, I received her even though I never knew her before that day. But she insisted that she knew me from where I worked as a shop assistant at Iyana-logbo. I did not want to be rude so I asked her to come in. She sat down and asked to see the baby’s face. In fact, she asked me to buy her food. After sometime, she said she wanted to buy clothes at the market and said that I should follow her. I told her I couldn’t leave the baby behind so she volunteered to carry the baby on her back. We went out through the back door and all who saw us kept asking where we were going and why I was not carrying my baby.”

Mariam said she told those who saw her with the woman that she was aunt, who wanted to buy some clothes for the baby. At the market, they located a shop and Ife picked a few of the clothes she desired. She however gave the clothes and her purse to Mariam saying she wanted to pick up some money from a stall at the other end, asking Mariam and the shop owner to wait. Once Yekini was out of view of the duo of Maraim and the shop owner, she left the market and did not come back.

After waiting for a long while, Mariam became very frantic, and began searching the woman, crying as she moved up and down the market.

As Sunday Sun learnt, when stall owners and buyers at the market asked why she was crying, she said: “My baby has been stolen. I am a daughter of Bintinlaiye.
This prompted someone to call Nojim’s aunt, Mrs. Hadijat Bello alias Bintinlaiye, on the phone, who then sent daughter, Aminat to the market to help Mariam. When Aminat got there, Mariam explained what happened, gave Aminat the purse given to her by Yekini and fainted. Mariam was immediately revived and rushed home by a commercial motorcyclist and her in-law.
Continuing the tale, Aminat, told
Sunday Sun: “When I opened the purse, I found some spoilt phones that had no batteries or simcards and a lotto paper. That was all that was in the purse, there was nothing of value. She should not have allowed her carry that baby or referred to her as her aunty to people who asked her where she was going.”

According to Mrs Hadijat Bello, Nojim’s aunt, who doubles as his mother, Mariam had a child last year but she mistakenly slept on the baby, who died a day to the naming ceremony.

While Nojim and Mariam pined away, traumatized by the theft of their newborn baby girl, providence quietly got into the mix and gave the Yekini, no peace of mind. When she could no longer endure the torment on her conscience as the baby’s guardian angel pounded on the door of her heart, she carried the baby in a box to the side of a road in Sango Ota with intent to dump her there for a passerby to rescue.
The passerby turned out to be a commercial motorcyclist who caught Yekini in the very act of dumping the baby. On sighting the motorcyclist, Yekini ran off. The man raised the alarm, which attracted people around, who chased and caught her and dragged her to Onipan Police Station, Sango-Ota.
Police officers at the station called Nojim, informin him that the baby had been found. He sent Aminat, who rushed over and positively identified the baby as her cousin’s child.

As it turned out, Yekini had initially claimed at the police station, she took the baby from Ibadan. The police officers asked her to take them to where she got the baby in Ibadan. Seeing that the game was up, Yekini confessed that she took the baby from Ifo town.

Narrating what happened at the station, Aminat said: “During interrogation, Yekini said she cast a spell on Maraim, to enable her take the baby from her. She mentioned two places where she hid for some days after stealing the baby, before selling her for N30,000 to Baba Alaye who uses babies for money rituals. Unfortunately, the Baba could not use the baby because her spirit was strong. So he called her to take back the baby to the family, warning that she must not kill the child. Yekini confessed that after she handed over the baby to the herbalist, she started falling sick and her condition got worse when the baby was returned to her house. Since she could not come back to Ifo, she decided to dump the baby in a bush near a prominent farm in the town where she was caught.”

More worrisome is the revelation by Yekini that two other people aided her in the baby-stealing caper. According to her, one of the accomplices was a neighbour of Nojim called Baba Bee and a neighbour of Mrs Hadijat Bello.

Expressing joy that his baby was returned hale and hearty, Nojim thanked the police for the good way they handled the matter. He said: “I appreciate what the Police did for me and my family. I pray that the Police and the court would handle the case well and punish that woman.”

A supposed convert who went to a church in search of a wife material has ended up stealing the vehicle of a pastor of the church, Crime Reports has gathered. The culprit’s deed was exposed after he was arrested by the Oyo State Police Command recently.

It was learnt that the principal suspect, Wasiu Adetunji Lawal, led a criminal gang which stock in trade was to obtain cars from their owners under false pretences, only to divert and sell them. Other members of the gang named by the police include Wasiu Adetunji Lawal, Isiaka Babatunde, Jamiu Rahman, Wasiu Adelani and Abdulazeez Ahmed.

Disclosing the arrest to Crime Reports recently during a press briefing, the Commissioner of Police in Oyo State, Leye Oyebade said that Lawal went away with the Toyota Sequia SUV belonging to one Pastor John Akorede Aderounmu under the pretext that he wanted to carry out some repairs, only to abscond with the vehicle.

“The suspect sold the vehicle to a criminal receiver in Kaduna State without the knowledge and the consent of the owner, and refused to respond to the owner’s calls when he demanded for the return of his vehicle.” Oyebade stated, adding that this led to police investigation into the whereabouts of Lawal and the vehicle.

The police commissioner further said that when Lawal was arrested, he confessed to have sold the vehicle, leading to the arrest of other suspects. Exhibits recovered from the gang include a Toyota Sequiao SUV, 13 vehicle particulars, nine forged Customs paper, number plate with registration number BH 299 BKA and other documents.

Oyebade said that his command was not unmindful of the fact that crime wave usually increases whenever the end of the year is approaching, adding: “This is why we have put various security strategies in place to curtail the activities of criminals within the state before, during and after the yuletide. It was the positive result of the strategies that led to the arrest of these criminals.”

In an interview, the suspect, Lawal, told Crime Reports that it was the victim who asked him to sell the vehicle and he had given him an additional N400,000 to add to the N800,000 which he realised from the sale, for him to buy a new one for the victim who believed his claim that he was a dealer.

He confirmed that Pastor Aderounmu was calling him but he could not respond because of a problem he did not disclose.

But the victim, Aderounmu, told Crime Reports that “the suspect (Lawal) came to our church, looking for a lady to marry. After a while, he got close to me. One day, he said he wanted to help me repair something in my car. He had earlier said that he was an auto dealer.

“He disappeared with my vehicle for three months before it was recovered from the person he sold it to in Kaduna. Before his arrest, I called him severally but he always told me that he would soon bring the car, unknown to me that he had already sold it. I never instructed him to sell the car as he claimed.”

“The man had been misbehaving all along. He would sometimes abandon the house and leave my daughter uncared for, for days at a time. Sometimes, my daughter would be sick and he would tell her to go back to her parents’ house to get treatment.”
Olusayo’s father alleged that there was a time she was ill and spent three weeks with them and the husband neither visited nor called.

He also accused Tinuola of using Facebook and WhatsApp to connect with different men with whom she had sexual affairs. To back up his accusation, Owolabi tendered computer generated evidences of her conversation with her lovers in court.
