Boko Haram militants have shot and injured the
acting Brigade commander of 23rd Brigade in
Yola.
Colonel Popoola was shot in the shoulder three
days ago in the thick of a battle to regain control
of Hong and Gombi in Adamawa state from the
Islamist militant sect. An army source in Abuja
told SaharaReporters that the senior army officer
has been evacuated to UCH Ibadan where he is
expected to receive better and further treatment
in the coming days.
Several soldiers were reported to have died in
the battle. The military source also told
SaharaReporters that at least 300 Boko Haram
militants have died in the battle.
Colonel Popoola reportedly led a new crop of
soldiers drafted from Jos into battle against the
insurgents in a renewed battle to retake several
towns from Boko Haram. The troop was able to
recover two armored tanks from the militants
after the battle was over.
The military claimed to have regained control of
towns today in a short tweet.
Meanwhile, four commanders have been
arrested for deserting their troops during the
Monday fight that earned Colonel Popoola a
bullet to his shoulder. The arrested soldiers
include one Lieutenant Mohammed, the QRG
commander of 234 battalion; 2nd Lieutenant UC
Uche, Platoon commander of Bravo Company of
the 234 battalion; Captain Lawal; and Lieutenant
Buraji who is Mararaba platoon commander. The
four and one other Captain Lawan were led away
in handcuffs yesterday and locked up inside the
military police guardroom at the 23rd Brigade in
Yola Adamawa state.

Nigerian Beauty Queen, Ex-Miss UNILAG Winner
Kessiana Salubi Killed By Ghost Lover, She Died
In Sleep After He Proposed To Her
Last week the shocking death story of ex-beauty
queen Kessiana Salubi went viral on the net.
Her immediate family members said she passed
away in her sleep on Friday the 4th of November
after returning from an outing.
Investigation have now revealed that hours
before her death, she went on a date with a
suspected ghost (Akudaya), a resurrected dead
person living in a place far from his/her people.
They said months before her death, she
reportedly met the man at one of the new
generation banks in Lagos and one thing led to
the other, they started seeing each other.
The guy was suppose to come and meet her
family one week before her death but sadly she
passed on.
They found the guy’s contact number and
address from her notebook but on getting there,
the family of the guy she went on a date with
told them he had passed on.
The unidentified guy reportedly died in a car
accident in Ilorin back in 2005 and shockingly, he
resurfaced in Lagos again.
All the calls put to his cellular number were never
picked.
He recently proposed to her.
Very sad!
May her soul rest in peace (amen).

The Nigeria Immigration Service, Lagos State
Command, on Thursday arrested 27 women and
a 15-year-old boy in the Lagos Mainland area of
the state.
The suspects were nationals of Benin Republic,
Togo and Ghana.
They were said to be without a valid entry
passport or visa, and would be repatriated as
soon as the agency concluded all necessary
investigation.
A few of the women were nursing mothers who
had their babies strapped to their backs.
While the elderly ones showed remorse, the
young ladies in the group chatted away as they
avoided press interview and snapshots.
A woman in her 50s, who identified herself as
Mrs Oluwaseun Joseph, from Cotonou, Benin
Republic, was in tears as she pleaded for time to
get her documents.
Joseph, who spoke in Yoruba with PUNCH Metro,
said although she had stayed long in Nigeria, she
did not know the importance of a valid passport
until she was arrested on Thursday.
She said, “I have been in this country for a long
time. I gave birth to my three children here. My
husband who is also from Benin Republic, died
some years ago.
“The work I do is to carry people’s load at Ebute
Meta. I started the work when I was sick and
needed money.
“That was what I was doing when they came to
arrest me. If I had known about the document, I
would have got it long ago. What will I do now?
My kids are still in school.”
Fifteen-year-old Ishay Befaye said he had been in
Lagos for only one month.
He said, “I am 15 years old. I came to Lagos on
my own. My father is dead while my mother is in
Benin Republic. I finished learning bricklaying in
Benin and I came to Nigeria to find work. I
planned to raise enough money and then
regularise my papers. I make a lot of money
from the work.
“I have a bank account in Lagos where I keep the
money. I am just begging them to give me some
time to get home and tell my friends that I want
to go to the village to get my papers.”
But the state’s Comptroller, Justina Ahamdu, told
our correspondent the command would not give
the illegal immigrants a second chance.
Ahmadu said the agency had had a meeting with
heads of ECOWAS members in the state, to warn
against the danger of living in the country
without valid documents.
She said, “I had a meeting with the heads of
ECOWAS in the state in August when I resumed
office, and I told them to warn their people
staying in the country illegally, that if we picked
them, we would not listen to them. And it was
during the meeting I learnt that they also usually
had periodic meetings with their fellow
countrymen.
“Normally, when we go for raids like this, we
profile and screen them before repatriating
them. While repatriating them, we tell them that
to be legal residents, they need to get valid
documents and pass through authorised routes,
before they can be allowed to stay. This is a
continuous process.”
She warned that Nigerians, who keep illegal
immigrants for cheap labour or obstruct officials
of the agency from making arrests, may also be
made to face the wrath of the law.

Rivers State Governor, Chibuike Amaechi, has
accused the President Goodluck Jonathan-led
federal government of massive corruption.
Amaechi spoke yesterday ahead of Saturday’s
mega rally at the new Adokiye Amaesiamaka
Stadium at Igwurutali.
According to him, no line of difference exists
between funds meant for the public and those
for private pockets.
Amaechi said Minister of Finance and
Coordinator of the Economy, Ngozi Okonjo-
Iweala, recently claimed that the country is not
broke while state governments are being owed
their allocations.
He said: “How else can you know if you are
broke when you cannot meet your financial
obligations? The governors are saying if you
are not broke as you claim, why not pay us
our money.
“They have not been able to separate
between money for private pocket and the
Nigerian pocket.
“Perhaps because Okonjo-Iweala is an
economist, she knows the best term to use to
describe the terrible situation the country
has found itself to the extent it cannot fund
its projects.”
The rally is expected to attract over 60,000
people to mark the seven-year anniversary of the
Supreme Court judgment that installed him as
governor in 2007.
Amaechi will at the event give a report of his
stewardship for the past seven years in office.
Dignitaries expected include General
Muhammdu Buhari, Atiku Abubakar, Governor
Rochas Okorocha, Sam Nda-Isaiah, prominent
APC chieftains among many others.

Mali has recorded its first case of Ebola after a 2
year girl who had come into the country from
Guinea, one of the worst hit with the Ebola
epidemic, came down with fever and was
diagnosed with the deadly virus yesterday
October 23rd.
Confirming the development, Malian Health
Minister, Ousmane Kone, said the girl is
undergoing treatment now and is responding to
treatment...
"The condition of the girl, according to our
services, is improving. Thanks to her rapid
treatment"
Mali becomes the sixth African country to record
a case of Ebola after Liberia, Guinea, Sierra
Leone, Nigeria and Senegal.

Her Majesty is definitely a trend setter as she
becomes the first ever reigning monarch of
England to send a tweet.
She made twitter history at the opening of an
information technology gallery at the London
Science Museum and this was witness by about
600 guests celebrating the history of
communications technology. The account which
was activated in 2009 and is run by her Majesty’s
royal aides before today that is. The tweet which
was sent by 10:35 GMT has over 15,000 retweets
so far.
It is a pleasure to open the Information Age
exhibition today at the @ScienceMuseum and
I hope people will enjoy visiting. Elizabeth R.

Mr Segun Adepegba who abandoned his three kids in a
boarding school in Ogun State has come out to state the
reasons he took the action.
The father who abandoned his three kids in a boarding
school, Solid Rock Model College in Abule-Iroko, Ogun
State, for eight years, Mr Segun Adepegba, has finally
come out to state his reasons for taking the action her took
and why he had to leave his children in the hands of
strangers for so long.
The distraught Adepegba who responded to the story
carried by Punch Newspaper, said hardship and his
inability to take care of the kids after their mother left him,
led to his abandoning the three children and promised to
visit the school and pick up his responsibilities.
In a telephone interview with the paper, Adepegba
recounted his ordeal, stating that life has been tough for
him and he had no job or house for him to give the children
the parental love they needed at the time.
In 2007, my wife and I had a misunderstanding and she told
me she was leaving me. I was frustrated and the children
were little. Seyi, the youngest, was just two years while
Titilola was just five.
There was no way I could give them motherly care. I had
no job. As a man, I needed someone to help me take care
of them and that was why my sister suggested that we
enroll them in a boarding school.
I feared that if I suddenly appeared at the school, the
proprietor would get the police to arrest me since the bills
were accumulating and I could not offset them. I really
appreciate the proprietor of Solid Rock Model College, for
coming to my rescue and accepting the responsibility to
help me take care of my children. The truth is this: I was
pushed to the wall. I didn’t want my children to be beggars
on the street.
All these years, I have been jobless. I had no house to live
in. I was putting up with someone. I just rented a one-room
apartment and just got a job. I am not a wicked father. I
really miss them but I am gradually overcoming the
challenges I have been facing. I did not abandon them in
that sense. I can assure you that before the week runs out, I
will visit them.
The last time I saw my wife was probably in 2007 when
she left me. I have been trying to reach her but my search
has not been fruitful. I heard that she is somewhere in the
northern part of the country.
