A Bauchi State High Court presided over by the state Chief Judge, Justice Rabi Umar, has sentenced a middle-aged man to 15 years imprisonment for raping a seven-year-old girl.

The accused, Adamu Abdullahi, was arraigned before the court by the state Director of Public Prosecutions, Dauda Yakubu, for raping a minor (name withheld), an offence said to be contrary to Section 282 of the criminal law and punishable under Section 283 with up to life imprisonment.

In her judgement, Umar said the accused was found guilty on the ground that his voluntary confessional statement corroborated with the oral evidence tendered by the victim.

The victim explained how the convict forced her into his room and had unlawful canal knowledge of her as a result of which she was injured in her private parts.

Umar said the result of a medical examination confirmed the injury she sustained in her private parts as a result of the rape.

After a plea for leniency by the counsel to the accused, Dahiru Abdulhamid, Umar sentenced the accused to 15 years imprisonment from the date he was arraigned in court on March 5, 2012. The justice also fined the convict N3,000

Niger, Chad, and Cameroon are seeking to undermine Boko Haram fighters in Nigeria ahead of a ground-and-air offensive by a regional taskforce due to start from the end of next month, a senior Niger military official said.

Military chiefs will meet in the Chadian capital N’Djamena next week to finalise strategy for the 8,700-strong taskforce of troops from the African coalition, said Colonel Mahamane Laminou Sani, director of documentation and military intelligence of Niger’s armed forces.

“All we are doing right now is stopping Boko Haram from entering Niger: if they attack our positions we push them back a certain distance and Nigeria pushes from the other side to contain the situation,” he said on Wednesday, on the sidelines of the annual US-sponsored ‘Flintlock’ counter-terrorism exercises in Chad.

“There are initiatives by our countries to make sure Boko Haram doesn’t get out of control but we have a deadline of end-March to put the joint force into practice,” he added.

Boko Haram, which has killed thousands of people in a six-year rebellion in Nigeria, has fought fierce battles with the three countries’ armies in southern Niger and northern Cameroon, near Nigeria’s borders, in recent weeks.

The people of Umuna community in Orlu Local Council Area of Imo State were thrown into shock in the early hours of yesterday when a middle aged man identified as Uche allegedly set his wife, Ugochi Uche ablaze before handing himself over to the police.

It was gathered that Uche, a 45-year-old man had allegedly doused his wife, who was said to be sleeping with fuel and set her ablaze.

Before the ugly incident, it was learnt that the man had accused the wife of infidelity, which had resulted in a serious quarrel between the couple three days earlier.

According to a family source, “the woman was sleeping when her husband set her ablaze after pouring fuel on her.”

However, trouble broke out at the couple’s hometown in Umuahiami Afara, Mbaitoli Local Government Area of the state yesterday when the in-laws from Ekwe Autonomous community in Isu Njaba Local Government Area stormed the sleepy Afara village on revenge mission destroying their son in-law’s house and property worth millions of naira.

Sources said it took the intervention of the detachment of police to quell the violence.

The state Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), DSP Andrew Enwerem, who confirmed the incident said the suspect was in their custody, adding that the matter was still under investigation.

The police spokesman further revealed that the victim was receiving treatment in an undisclosed hospital.

“No matter what we are, we may not be able to live up to his expectations. We might have made some mistakes, but abandoning us is not the solution because the country is first before anything else. So, he is our baba even up to the president. Baba is our baba no matter what. He is angry with us, but then, what do we do? He gave us the life at a time when Nigerians were fighting us, he stood for us.
“Since 2011, in 2007, he stood firm for us. He is our father. And so, if we made some mistakes, we are only human because we are heading human institutions.

The Jigawa state governor, Sule Lamido, has described former President, Olusegun Obasanjo, as an icon and a political father to most office holders in the ruling Peoples Democratic Party, despite Mr. Obasanjo dumping the party.
Speaking with journalists at the Presidential Villa, after a private meeting with President Goodluck Jonathan on Monday, the governor said some of Mr. Obasanjo’s political godsons, including President Jonathan, must have made some mistakes which angered the ex-President for him to have resolved to dump the party.
Mr. Lamido, however, noted that dumping the party was not the best move made by Mr. Obasanjo. He said the former president was more than a party, but a symbol of national institution.
“Baba is more than a party man. He is an icon, a national symbol and a leader and an inventor, a creator of all the institutions today in Nigeria from the presidency to the governors who are his own sons, are all his creations. And so, when a father is angry with his own children, we will only say we are sorry to him. But then we cannot be renounced for whatever it is.
“No matter what we are, we may not be able to live up to his expectations. We might have made some mistakes, but abandoning us is not the solution because the country is first before anything else. So, he is our baba even up to the president. Baba is our baba no matter what. He is angry with us, but then, what do we do? He gave us the life at a time when Nigerians were fighting us, he stood for us.
“Since 2011, in 2007, he stood firm for us. He is our father. And so, if we made some mistakes, we are only human because we are heading human institutions. And I think by the time he reflects, how could he abandon his own children like that. Wherever we are, we are right in his heart. He feels for us, he cares for us.”
On a possible reconciliation move by the party to convince the former President to return to the party, Mr. Lamido said “When there is some kind of misunderstanding between a father and a child, you don’t go to NTA or any other media to say you are going to do this. I mean the bond between us is so strong. I know he is equally pained. I know what he is going through because he is our father. But I will not tell you the strategy because when he was producing us, you were not there; when he was making us, were you there?”
On claims by some PDP leaders that they won’t miss him, he said “But then, the first child is the President, did he say so?”
The PDP BoT Secretary, Walid Jibrin, had on Monday described Mr. Obasanjo irresponsible for shredding his membership card publicly just as the body’s Chairman, Tony Anenih, also maintained that the party’s leadership would not miss the ex-President.
Asked whether he was worried by Mr. Obasanjo’s consistent criticisms of Jonathan’s administration, Mr. Lamido explained “What I am saying is that all of us are parents. When we were born, they pampered us; gave us their love; gave us everything. By the time they get old, naturally, there is what they call role reversal. We became the parents and they became the children. So, what is wrong if our parents begin to manifest those signs of old age?”
Commenting on the activities of the opposition All Progressives Congress in the country, the Jigawa state governor said, “What is this opposition in Nigeria? You must know Nigerian history. Nigeria cannot be governed by an aggregate of pain, anger and frustration. And I have been saying to those so-called opposition who are now abusing us, whatever might have been our crime, it was that crime that made them. We created that for them to become either governors, in the legislature , we created room for them to emerge. So whatever they think is our evil, they are the manifestations of the evil. Believe me, you don’t know Nigeria.”
On the chances of the PDP retaining power at the rescheduled March/April general elections, he said “I don’t doubt it because what is APC? An amalgamation of pain, anger and desperation. And this country is too big for them.”

A trader, Mrs. Clara Ossai, is facing two counts bordering on assault at a Lagos Magistrate’s Court sitting in Ijaye-Ojokoro for allegedly inflicting injury on a policewoman attached to the Gowon Estate Police Division.

It was learnt that the incident happened inside the station around 11.30am on February 11.

The defendant was said to have attacked the 39-year-old woman, Sergeant Grace Agede, in an attempt to prevent the detention of her sister, Stella Amarikwa, who was arrested for stealing.

Our correspondent, however, has yet to ascertain the items allegedly stolen by Amarikwa.

PUNCH Metro learnt that 28-year-old Ossai, a native of the Ikeduru Local Government Area, Imo State, attempted to free her sister, who Agede was taking to a cell.

She reportedly held the cop by the neck and punched her in the mouth, while blood gushed out from her lips.

Agede’s colleagues at the counter were said to have intervened, after which Ossai, who deals in clothes, was detained alongside her sister.

A police prosecutor, Inspector Benson Emuerhi, arraigned Ossai before a magistrate, Mrs. T. Akani, for causing breach of peace at the station and harming the sergeant.

The charges read, “That you, Clara Ossai, 28, on February 11, 2015, at about 11.30am, at the Gowon Estate Police Station, in the Ikeja Magisterial District, did behave in a disorderly manner by shouting in the charge-room, creating unnecessary scene and disturbing the peace of the station and thereby committed an offence contrary to and punishable under Section 166 (B) of the Criminal Law of Lagos State of Nigeria, 2011.

“That you, Clara Ossai, on the same date, time and place in the aforementioned magisterial district, did assault one Sergeant Grace Agede while in police uniform and performing her lawful duty by beating her up and inflicting injury on her lips and thereby committed an offence contrary to and punishable under Section 172 (B) of the Criminal Law of Lagos State of Nigeria, 2011.”

The defence counsel, F.C. Nnaji, prayed the court to grant his client bail in the most liberal terms, adding, “she is a nursing mother.”

She was admitted to bail in the sum of N100,000 with a surety in like sum.

It was gathered that the victim was raped on January 24, 2015 at her parents’ house on Adeshokan Street, Ayobo, Lagos State.

Our correspondent gathered that Churchill had first inserted his fingers into the victim’s private parts before having sex with her

The Armed Forces of Nigeria today is a far cry from those years. They have become so overly compromised that they will sell out Nigeria and Nigerians for a piece of bread. From gallivanting about the streets of Nigeria drinking and sleeping with prostitutes at night while Nigeria burns, to Brigadier General Aliyu Momoh sheepishly taking commands from a bunch of “bloody Civilians”, it is now clear that the Nigerian military is in disarray; making the Nigerian state very vulnerable.

Remember the days when the Nigeria Military was enviably one of the most respected institutions in Nigeria? It was thought to be only for a selected few; at lease for those in the Southern part of the country. As teenagers in the 1990s, we respected and envied anyone who was able to get into the Nigeria Defense Academy (NDA). Then only those that either have the right connections or that have demonstrated some exceptional degree of extra-terrestrial intelligence (by scoring 100/100 in the “showmanship examinations”) would have the opportunity to be accepted into the Academy.

When NDA students visit home during their vacation, they would relay stories of how the NDA students from the North cannot write simple sentences or even spell their names; how some of the students do not have high school diploma and how they are forced to school daily by their parents/relatives. Here we are in the South under rigorous academic duress studying hard to make 100/100 in the examination so we can even have a chance. Some of our friends had to change their names to Mohammed, Mustaphar, Abdulkarim before registering for the NDA examination so they would have a modicum of chance to be accepted.

To date, I still cannot recall the real driver behind our interest in the NDA. But we studied and worked so hard to pass the examination; albeit unsuccessfully. In the 3-4 years period when we were writing NDA examinations year-after-year, it was only 2 or 3 of us in that generation of friends that made it into the academy. We later found out that they were accepted not because of their high examination scores but because the academy needed to give the south some “quota” that year. Go figure!

Undoubtedly, the NDA produced some of the finest professional military men and women that contributed one way or another to Nigeria’s progress. They deserve our utmost respect and commendation, especially those who died in the line of duty defending the country.

The Armed Forces of Nigeria today is a far cry from those years. They have become so overly compromised that they will sell out Nigeria and Nigerians for a piece of bread. From gallivanting about the streets of Nigeria drinking and sleeping with prostitutes at night while Nigeria burns, to Brigadier General Aliyu Momoh sheepishly taking commands from a bunch of “bloody Civilians”, it is now clear that the Nigerian military is in disarray; making the Nigerian state very vulnerable.

A Cameroonian commander was recently quoted as saying his military men do not run away from Boko Haram like the Nigerians. What a shame! Truth be told, some of the brave soldiers on the ground have tried to do the right thing. But their senior officers are all over the corridors of power begging for dimes and nickels while siphoning salaries made for the men on the front lines. Is there any wonder while the moral is very low among Nigeria soldiers?

I read with dismay the press release of Major General Chris Olukolade, Director Defense Information in which he stated “The Armed Forces of Nigeria is quite conscious of the fact that apart from its primary constitutional role of defending the country from external aggression and internal insurrection, it also has the responsibility of providing support in aid of civil authority such as the need to provide complementary security arrangement to protect our electoral process. It is on record that the military has successfully lived up to its responsibility while discharging this duty during previous elections without equivocation….It is on record that the military has successfully lived up to its responsibility while discharging this duty during previous elections without equivocation.”

Really? Was that what Brigadier-General Aliyu Momoh was doing in Ekiti state? If the Nigerian Military has not lost her moral compass, one would have by now heard an announcement about serious ongoing investigation into the purported infamous taped conversation between the Nigerian Military representatives, Governor Ayo Fayose, Musikilu Obanikoro and Minister for Police Affairs, Navy Captain Caleb Olubolade.

Nigeria water-ways, airspace and borders are the most porous in the world. Anyone can ship in, fly in and cross in virtually anything, anyone at anytime. Nigeria Armed Forces is a sinking ship that needs to be rescued.

It is high time that the Nigerian military started to produce again a new generation of competent and professional men and women of integrity who are committed to serving the Nigerian people and not politicians and business men.

Until the Nigerian people see an investigation that proves Captain Sagir Okoli’s tape was fabricated, they will consider Captain Sagir Okoli a true soldier and a hero who deserves a National Award. If the Nigerian military continues in her present directionless trajectory, they will loss the remaining sliver of confidence of the Nigerian people.
