The death toll arising from the cholera in Bayelsa has reached 36, with six more persons reported dead in the Ologi community of Ogbia Local Government Area (LGA).

Ogbia is President Jonathan’s LGA of origin. Several persons, including women and children, are also reported to be in critical condition in the area.

Cholera a disease caused by poor access to potable water, is prevalent in endemic proportions in Sagbama LGA, Gov Seriake Dickson LGA of origin, as well as Southern Ijaw LGA, which is the LGA of the the Speaker of the Bayelsa House of Assembly. Observers say this is an indication that political office holders couldn’t care less about their own people.

It would be recalled that the epidemic had been earlier reported in Southern Ijaw and Sagbama LGAs, with a combined death toll in the two council areas of 30 persons.

Confirming the latest development to newsmen, on Thursday, Chief Obedient Emoto, who represents Ogbia constituency II in the State Assembly, said the cholera outbreak has thrown the affected community and its neighbours into confusion.

According to Emotor, the development is causing fear and untold hardship in the area.

He warned that unless urgent steps were taken, the outbreak could claim more lives as well as spread to other neighbouring communities.

The legislator appealed to the state Ministry of Health to urgently send epidemiologists, health personnel and drugs to curb the epidemic in the community.

But an official of the Ministry, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said health personnel and drugs have been dispatched to the area to contain the spread of the disease

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has warned Nigerians not to vote for a mediocre performer as president.

Obasanjo who made this statement at his book launch, My. watch, in London, yesterday said that he said maintains the statement credited to him of his endorsement of APC presidential candidate, Gen Buhari
“What I said and I maintain that and I will say it again and I will do it. When the time comes for me to vote, I will consider the track record of all the candidates that are contesting and I will assess and based on my assessment for who I believe have the best track record to perform the job of the Nigerian president, then he will have my vote and if anybody should know what the job of the Nigerian president requires, I should know.
“And there is no sentiment in the affairs of Nigeria.Nigeria is a population of 180million and you wouldn’t have anybody other than one person or two persons that can run the affairs of Nigeria? What the hell are we talking about? For me there are millions who can run the affairs of Nigeria that are not even coming out.
So why should you die on behalf of one who is probably performing as a mediocre.
With all due respect. Nigeria, if you love it, you would look for the best for Nigeria and I don’t believe that at this point in time we have the best” he said

The power-drunk cop who tortured a couple in the Ikoyi area of Lagos State, Dada Ogunsanya, has been freed by the police.

However, one of the victims of the torture, Ejeh Smith, is currently being detained in the Ikoyi Police Division.

PUNCH Metro gathered on Wednesday that the police at the Ikoyi division were mounting pressure on him to admit that he was a criminal.

He was initially arrested by the Lion Building Police Division for allegedly receiving stolen diesel. The Ikoyi division heard about the case after Ejeh had been granted bail, but nevertheless rearrested and brought him before some selected journalists.

The action, it was learnt, was targeted at rubbishing earlier reports indicting Ogunsanya and the then Ikoyi Divisional Police Officer, Aisha Haruna.

Our correspondent had reported in December, 2014 that Ogunsanya, a corporal attached to the Ikoyi division stopped a cab conveying Ejeh and his wife, Grace, home.

The policeman, who was part of a patrol team, was said to have shone his torch on the passengers, who protested that the inner lights of the cab should have sufficed.

Angry Ogunsanya was said to have used his rifle to hit Ejeh in the eye and stepped on Grace’s stomach.

The DPO, Haruna, was alleged to have deleted Grace’s recording of the incident.

The matter was still ongoing, when PUNCH Metro learnt on Wednesday that Ogunsanya had been released, while Ejeh had been detained for another matter.

Ejeh’s wife, Grace, said her husband was arrested for allegedly receiving a stolen keg of diesel.

She said, “Last week, I returned from work and I saw a 25-litre keg of diesel in the house. My husband said a security man in the next compound wanted to sell it to him. He explained that the security man said he did not have money on him.

“My husband told the man that he would help him sell the fuel, as he had no use of the product.”

It was gathered that the security man had stolen the fuel from his employer, which was later detected through a CCTV camera.

Policemen from the Lion Building division were said to have arrested Smith after the suspect mentioned his name.

Grace said the police in the Lion Building granted bail to her husband, but as Ejeh was going home, policemen from the Ikoyi Division surfaced and said the complainant had demanded that the matter be transferred to the division.

It was gathered that the DPO of Ikoyi division at the time of the torture, Aisha Haruna, is now the DPO of the Lion Building division.

Grace said, “After we paid N15, 000 for Smith’s bail in the Lion Building division, the police said he should be taken to the Ikoyi Police Division, that the owner of the case wanted it transferred there.

“The lawyer representing the complainant wanted to withdraw the case, but the police said the case should go on.

“The police then asked my husband to accept that he is a criminal, so that they can rubbish whatever we said they did to us. They also invited some journalists to interview him.”

It was gathered that Ogunsanya, who was back at the Ikoyi division, had been insisting on Ejeh’s arraignment in court.

But the Public Relations Officer, Lagos State Command, Kenneth Nwosu, said the police did not frame the couple.

He, however, admitted that Ogunsanya had been released, saying his trial had ended.

He said, “Dada Ogunsanya’s trial has ended and his rank was reduced from corporal to constable.

“Smith was arrested by his community for receiving stolen goods and was brought to the Ikoyi Police Division for investigations before charging the matter to court.

“Nobody organised a press conference on his arrest. Some journalists heard about his arrest and called me that they would like to interview him and I cannot stop them.”

A 28-year-old guard, Paul Onazi, has been arrested for allegedly stealing a Toyota Camry car and jewellery belonging to his bosses ─ Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Ekpesi ─ who live in Gowon Estate in the Egbeda area of Lagos.

He appealed to Nigerians to separate the military from partisan politics and to retain their confidence in its neutrality and patriotism during the electoral period.

You are leaving me more confused...

The quoted post is that of a rude wife (again subject to interpretation because I do not think a rude person would easily take to corrections)

Are you implying that rudeness is the characteristics of the 'head'? Was she behaving like the 'head'?

The Defence Headquarters has assured Nigerians that the military and its personnel would be impartial in the discharge of their constitutional security responsibilities in the forthcoming general elections.

The Director of Defence Information, Maj. Gen Chris Olukolade, said in an electronic mail on Wednesday that the military would remain committed to the performance of its constitutional role of securing the country before, during and after the elections.

Olukolade said the leaders of the military who are also beneficiaries of the democratic governance would not do anything to subvert it.

He also stated that the military would ensure strict adherence to professionalism and would remain non-partisan in its operations during the elections.

Olukolade said that the assurance became necessary in view of the tension generated by the role of the military in the on-going political process.

He said that the military had the responsibility to provide complementary security in support of the civil authorities aside from its traditional role of protecting the territorial integrity of the country.

“The Defence Headquarters has noted the palpable tension being generated in certain quarters with regards to the roles of the Nigerian military in the on-going political activities and recent developments especially in relation to the electioneering programmes in the country.

“Accordingly, it has become necessary to reassure all citizens that the Armed Forces of Nigeria remain committed to its duty in working to ensure the sustenance of peace, law, order and stability in the country before, during and after the forthcoming elections.

“It is also important to reassure Nigerians that the military will, while working with all security agencies and stake holders in the process, remain professional, apolitical and non-partisan in all operations or activities related to this crucial exercise.

“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.”

He said that all military personnel had been warned to be conscious of their oaths of office to ensure the protection of the Constitution and to be loyal to constituted authorities in the country.

The Defence Spokesman added that the military leadership would not accept any excuse for comprising the law or the Electoral Act in the forthcoming elections.

Olukolade, who commended Nigerians for their understanding, said the nation’s security was beyond politics and other considerations.

He appealed to Nigerians to separate the military from partisan politics and to retain their confidence in its neutrality and patriotism during the electoral period.

You must be a mind reader to know What I believe and What I don't.

Ephesians you quoted said wives submit, husbands love...

You said women of today try switching roles I.e. them loving and men submitting...

I asked for practical examples

A man that had worked so hard brought his much younger wife here to Germany, when they come to church the wife was so rude to the man, perhaps because she was better educated. I quickly grabbed hold of her and drew her aside. I warned her that her husband was respected in this community and if she ever tried it again where I was I would shred her to bits. Foolish girl!

These greedy bitches accept a man they do not love and are ashamed of just to get out of Nigeria and then they want to ruin the man.
Do you know that these men have worked so hard for so many years! Received all kinds of insults from society and then you bring this young girl and she gives you the final insult to let you know you are = 0.
How many of them come here with nothing and soon the man is out of his own home on the streets and having to pay maintenance.
When the study in America, they are able to do so because the man brought them there.
Nursing is not even a good paying job, like any menial job you can gather money if you work enough hours. While they are at work they cannot perform as wife`s so of what use is the work if it does not benefit the family?

No matter how educated or how much money they have a woman must humble herself and treat her husband with the utmost respect in all situations. That is not just good for the man but also for the children. The children are raised in an environment where the learn respect and manners.
That is what you get when a man that has struggled for years gets dragged into the mud in his own home. A man that has struggled and faced discrimination and abuse outside. Treat him like a king at home so that he can feel like the man he is, that will give him the strength to keep struggling.
Instead these women get rude, function like they don`t have a family, neglect the welfare of their husbands and homes

I just dey observe

CALABAR—Nemesis, yesterday, caught up with a 27-year-old serial rapist, Stephen Nyong, a native of Ikono Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State, who resides at 18b, Inyang Edem Street, Mount Zion, Calabar, as he was arrested by youths of the community.

Vanguard gathered that Stephen and his gang, who have been on rampage terrorizing women in the neighbourhood for about a decade, intensified their nefarious activities by visiting almost every compound each night since the beginning of this year, where they rape women and girls.

According to the village head of Ndom Ndang, Muri Okon Effiong, who spoke with Vanguard, the gang has been operating in his domain for a very long time. He said: “As the custodian of this place, the chief and I took a decision to deal with them and we have arrested one today (yesterday).

“He and other gang members have raped over 60 girls. He alone had defiled over 20 girls this 2015. He has been chased in more than three compounds but was not caught. His sins have caught up with him today.”

Chief Effiong revealed that Edem doesn’t only rape the girls but also makes sure he stabs and injures them as well as cart away any valuable within reach.

“It was last Sunday night’s attack that got the youths in the area enraged and they decided to lay siege for him and their kingpin on our instruction. Unfortunately, the leader of the gang, who is now at large, is responsible for grooming them over the years,” the monarch said.

According to a resident, Mrs Agnes Ubong, who also spoke with Vanguard, the suspect was a brutal rapist who showed no mercy to any of his victims as he stabbed them with his dagger after defiling them.

“After defiling my neighbour, Mary and her roommate, he stabbed both of them on the head and he also took their phones and N8,000 from them. They were both taken to the hospital this morning (yesterday),” she said.

He said, “The family started searching for him when he could not be found and he was not picking his telephone. That was how they found him there. His wife could not bear the shock of the tragedy and had since been hospitalised.

I dey tell you, I once worked with a lebanese along ojota road to be precise oasis compound second floor-the MD will say it to your face that "i will enslave you in your country and nothing will happen"....after all the money is der to be spent

But Okpara is said to refused collecting the money, choos­ing instead to have the matter charged to court as soon as the striking judi­ciary workers resumed duties.
She says she wants to use as case to serve a deterrent to other foreigners who maltreat Nigerian staff, treating them as lesser people.
