The grave where missing General Alkali was buried after he was killed, has been discovered by the Nigerian Army. According to the information provided by some of the arrested suspects, the body of missing General Alkali was exhumed and reburied somewhere else. It was gathered that the shallow grave was confirmed by four independent sources in the community and also by sniffer dogs. There is reportedly a distance of one kilometre between the main road and the location of the grave. The Village Head of Dura-Du District in Jos South Local Government Area of Plateau State, Yakubu Rapp (52); Youth Leader of the community, Matthew Rwang (aka Amesco, 27); and a tipper driver, Timothy Chuwang (26) have also voluntarily surrendered themselves to the Plateau State Police Command in Jos. This came after they were declared wanted by the police over the disappearance of an Army General, Mohammed Idris Alkali (retd). “The three suspects voluntarily surrendered themselves to the police. If the police detain them, it will be difficult to get the others. But if they are granted bail, be assured that they will all appear before the police by next week,” the source stated. The suspects were accompanied by the lawyer representing the community, Matthew Godfree. This is coming after three cars were recovered from a mining pond in the Dura–Du District during a cordon and search operation conducted by a team of soldiers, led by the Garrison Commander of 3 Armour Division, Brig. Gen. Umar Mohammed. https://lailasnews.com/grave-of-missing-general-alkali-discovered-village-head-surrenders/ lalasticlala

Nigeria's Minister of Transport, Rotimi Amaechi, who spoke at the 24th Nigerian Economic Summit organized by the Ministry of Budget & National Plannng at the Transcorp Hilton, Abuja on Monday 22, October 2018, stated that the Abuja rail can’t run faster than 90km/h because the end game will be killing cows. According to Rotimi Amaechi, his ministry does not want the trains killing cows that pass through the Abuja rail while seeking pastures to graze on. The transport Minister who maintained that Nigeria has more than enough to transport via rail before stating restrictions caused by cows, also highlighted other local problems being faced by the Nigerian railway system. “The reason why we wat to go back to narrow gauge is because between Lagos and Kano, we have 30 million tonnes of cargo. Even if you do three rail lines, it cannot be enough. It took us 14 days to move coaches from Lagos to Abuja; everyday we go and ask, how far, they say we are near Ogun state… 14 days. But if it were rail, the same day, it will get to Abuja. The kind of construction we are doing is 120 kilometres per hour (Km/h), it is a speed train. “We are doing 90km/h with Abuja to Kaduna. The reason we are doing 90km/h is because there are cows everywhere, and we don’t want to kill cows. The other day they tried 100 and they killed how many cows, and they said ‘you people should replace the cows you killed. From that day, I have said let us maintain the 90km/h; at 120km/h you get to Kaduna in one hour. You can work in Kaduna and live in Abuja. It was initially one, but now, we have done four locomotives with 14 coaches'' he said https://lailasnews.com/abuja-rail-cant-run-faster-than-90km-h-because-we-dont-want-to-kill-cows-amaechi/ lalasticlala

A Nigerian woman, Mrs Bibiana Linus Onyeulo, whose marriage to her husband Mr Linus Uzodinma Chibuzo Onyeulo, got annulled without her consent has cried out as her husband who began planning a wedding with another woman, got married again today. The lady who reported the incident to the parish priest of All Saints Catholic Church, Avutu Obowu in Imo state and Catholic Bishop of Okigwe diocese, Most Rev. Dr Solomon A Amatu, was asked to get a copy of the annulment letter her husband obtained from the Vicar of Okigwe diocese, Rev. Fr. Michael Agbayi, by Rev. Amatu. However while still trying to get the letter of annulment, her husband who planned a wedding in Lagos on October 20, 2018, got married to another woman at their home town on Sunday, October 14, in the Catholic Church. The couple was joined by the parish priest of All Saint’s Catholic Church, Avutu Obowu, Imo state. When she reported the new development to the Bishop of Okigwe diocese, was also asked to get the letter of annulment which Vicar of Okigwe diocese refused to give her, until he gets a confirmation from the Bishop of Okigwe. She however made a headway in her quest, as the Vicar who agreed to send the letter to the Bishop asked her to return on October 23, 2018. The Nigerian lady further wrote a letter to the parish priest of St. John The Evangelist Catholic Church Ladipo, Oshodi, Lagos State, stating that her husband shouldn't be joined in holy matrimony to the lady as they've not ended their marriage properly. Her letter read in part: I simply request that my husband's wedding should be stopped until I get to the root of his conspiracy and also get an appeal, along with a fair hearing from the bishop and judicial Vicar of Okigwe diocese because if this wedding continues, it means this would be his third wedding in catholic church (One to me the genuine wife and twice the second wife). It was however gathered that the wedding went on today, Saturday, October 20, 2018 in spite of her letter. https://lailasnews.com/woman-exposes-husband-who-got-married-last-week-and-had-another-wedding-today/

Nollywood veteran actor, Akin Lewis who made his movie debut in the 70s has disclosed why his marriages in the past ended. In his chat with The Sun, Akin Lewis stated that his two marriages ended because his ex-wives were greedy and didn't understand their roles as wives. Here are excerpts from the interview below; Have you ever been fingered in any sexual scandal, since your career started? None whatsoever, from either young or old. I don’t do that. I am not that kind of a person. It doesn’t get to my work. I have never been in any scandalous act. You have been married twice and both marriages failed. Why didn’t any of your two marriages work out? You will probably need to ask the women but I think they were just being greedy, they didn’t understand their roles as wives. But if there are other reasons, they will have to explain themselves. That’s what I can say about that. I think they were selfish; they wanted it all and do not understand what it means to be married to somebody like me. As the man here, don’t you feel any sense of guilt that you probably didn’t manage the relationships well? No! See, we all make mistakes because we are not perfect, but my people say that cutting off the head is not the cure for headache. That is why I said they were selfish; they wanted it all without thinking of the implications it would have on family. In management, we usually say that you make the error of judgment in employing someone. That is probably what happened. The error of judgment was mine. What would you like to change about your past, if you have your way? Still about those marriages, I want them deleted. Yeah, I would like them deleted because it is not funny when you give someone all you have and they take it for granted. https://lailasnews.com/my-two-marriages-failed-because-my-ex-wives-were-greedy-akin-lewis/ lalasticlala

A monarch in Emohua Local Government Area of Rivers State, Eze Augustine Amadionu was reportedly killed alongside two others, by gunmen suspected to be cultists who invaded Elibrada community. According to eye witnesses, after the monarch was killed, the two persons including one Wayagbo Amadi were beheaded after they were shot dead by their assailants who struck at about noon on Monday. A resident of the community who pleaded anonymity, said the hoodlums went for their targets and left immediately after the deed was done. According to him, the monarch was murdered in his palace, while the two other persons were killed within their community and close to their houses. “The cult boys entered our community yesterday (Monday) around noon and killed our royal highness. “The boys also killed one other person, Wayagbo. They removed his head. “We also heard that they had killed somebody at Oduoha before they came into our community. “At the moment, there is fear everywhere in the community. “People are living in fear. Some are even out of the community, although the police have come, people are still living in fear,” the source said. The state Police Public Relations Officer, Mr Nnamdi Omoni who confirmed the incident described the killings as unfortunate, and further disclosed that security operatives had since been deployed in the area to restore law and order.

This, he said, was to enable him to process the documentations and pay the necessary fees. I sent the N100,000 as he demanded. He later asked for an additional N200,000.” Punch reported that the dismissed FCT Cop demanded N900,000, which he said was the value of the vehicle.

But after taking the money, the attendant informed me my total bill was N56, 000. I requested to see the corpse of my baby. But to my surprise, when he brought out the baby’s corpse, the two eyes had been removed.” According to the father of the dead child, he was prevented from taking pictures of the corpse. https://lailasnews.com/upth-mortuary-attendants-remove-eyes-of-dead-child/ lalasticlala

Motivational Speaker, Oyemykke, who is known for his socio-economic analysis, especially issues that affect Nigerian youths, has explained his relationship with his fans. Here are excerpts from the interview Oyemykke granted Saturday Beats; Some people think you post inspirational videos just because you are based in the UK and not in Nigeria. If you were based in Nigeria, would you still do these types of videos with the same contents? People talk, I don’t worry a lot about that. I didn’t just become popular on the Internet; I had been polishing my craft for a long time. I had been networking, writing, and inspiring my friends. If I lived under a rock, I would still motivate people there. It’s who I am naturally; it’s a force from within. Maybe the stories would have been a bit more different if I were there, but I don’t see it happening any other way. What are some of the weird requests you get from your fans, especially the female ones? I have received diverse requests; some of them say I should come and marry them, take them on random flights and fly to countries with a different time zone to hang out with them. What is the highest or lowest amount of money you have made from your social media platform? I don’t like to talk about my income; the lowest should be under £100. But my income is good enough that I can comfortably take care of myself and even raise a child on it. I used to have a job but I quit few months after I realised I was making enough money from my social media platform. I am the son of a big businesswoman, so I am also a businessman, but (on a) low-key (scale). Recently you made a remark about Banky W and it made some Nigerians criticise you. How did you feel when you saw those feedbacks? I found them funny and I was laughing at the comments. You know, it’s more interesting watching thousands of people say what they truly feel about you. I learnt a lot and I’m still learning a lot. I understood where it was coming from. https://lailasnews.com/some-of-my-fans-ask-me-to-marry-them-oyemykke/ lalasticlala
