I planned my kidnap to raise funds for my parents’ funeral—Pastor’s wife


UYO—A-32-year-old Pastor’s wife of an undisclosed church located in Nsit Atai Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State identified as Mrs. Victoria Elijah Ndu has been arrested for planning her kidnap.

Vanguard gathered that Mrs. Ndu was first rescued in Awo Omamma in Imo state last Monday, August 24 by men of the anti-kidnapping squad from the state Police Command in Ikot Akpan-Abia and arrested the same day after an investigation showed that she actually planned her kidnapping to get some money from her church members.

It was learned that they had placed N3m ransom for her (Victoria) release.

Victoria was said to have told her husband on August 16, 2017 that she was going to the market whereas she travelled to Imo state where she made calls alerting her husband of her kidnap.

Also arrested for alleged conspiracy to the crime was her younger brother, Victor Okon Akang an artisan, who resides in Awo Omamma, Imo State.

It was gathered that Victoria’s brother, Okon Akang had run to the village from Imo State crying over his sister’s alleged kidnap when the sister was actually hiding in his house in Imo state.

The Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Chukwu Ikechukwu told newsmen yesterday at Ikot Akpan-Abia that the suspects were rescued and arrested same day following interrogation by men of the anti-kidnapping unit where Mrs. Victoria confessed to masterminding the crime.

Ikechukwu said: “Victoria’s husband had on August 16 reported to the Divisional Police Headquarters in Nsit Atai that his wife had been kidnapped. He told the police that the wife told him she was going to the market that day. But Nsit Atai lacked the jurisdiction to handle kidnap matter; the case was transferred to the State Criminal Intelligence and Investigation Department (SCIID).

“They traced the calls used by contacting the church members and demanding for N3 million ransom to Awo Omamma in Imo state. That was how men of the anti-kidnapping unit swung into action, tracked down the suspects and rescued them.

“It was while Victoria Ndu was being interrogated at the anti- Kidnapping unit that she confessed that she actually masterminded her own kidnap. That was how she and her brother were arrested. The brother was arrested because both of them conspired to fake the crime.

“What you are seeing here today is to serve as a deterrent to people who may be planning to go into this kind of crime. Police in Akwa Ibom is doing everything possible to make sure that crime in the state is reduced to the barest minimum

“The Commissioner of Police Mr. Zubairu Muazu, therefore, appeals to members of the public to provide useful information that will help us to achieve that and serve them better.”

The suspects, during an interview, admitted to the crime even as both pleaded to be forgiven attributing their action to lack of money to conduct burial ceremony for their late parents.

Victoria, who lamented her suffering after 10years of marriage without a child said: “We are orphans from a poor background. I only did what I did to help my family bury our parents. Our father died in 2008 but we did not conduct any burial ceremony for him. In April this year, our mother died too and since then she has not been buried because of no money. We wanted to conduct burial for both of them.”

She, however, admitted initially placing N3million ransom on herself but reduced the amount to N1million during the negotiations.

Numerous wonders in this world. Internet is seemingly the second god. It sustains and controls its mortal creators. It is the brain of the world.

Yeah.. The Internet controls almost every aspect of our lives that a breakdown spells doom for us all

Low sperm count means that the fluid (semen) you ejaculate during an orgasm contains fewer sperm than normal. A
low sperm count is also called oligospermia (ol-ih-go-SPUR-me-uh). A complete absence of
sperm is called azoospermia.
Sometimes a low sperm count is inevitable, but sometimes there are steps one can take in order to prevent this condition from occurring.
Here are five things that have been known to cause a low sperm count:
Smoking
Granted, the amount of cigarettes you would need to smoke a day would have to be nearer to the 20 or so mark in order to affect sperm count. However, smoking is not only clearly harmful to your overall health, but regardless of exactly how many cigarettes you smoke a day – over time, the effects will eventually spread to a lowered sperm count.
Alcohol
Again, the quantity at which sperm count would be affected by alcohol is high, but excessive amounts of alcohol consumption can be a source of infertility. Alcohol lowers sperm production and the production of testosterone. If you're looking for ways to take action and cut back for your overall health, starting with cutting out high amounts of alcohol is a great first step.
Your Weight
Yes, it's true: obesity can affect male fertility. The truth is, when a male is severely overweight, the layers of fat that surround the testicles can become overheated. Heat is bad for sperm health, and this issue is just yet another overall health concern that can negatively effect sperm count and lead to male infertility .
Heat
We've established that heat is bad for sperm health, but it can become an issue in a wide variety of ways besides obesity. Heat can affect sperm during: a hot bath, time spent in a hot tub, or working with a laptop or other electronic device on your lap for long periods of time. It's likely that especially for the last example, you've noticed when your laptop has overheated and it's uncomfortable on your skin, so it's not difficult to grasp what this could mean for sperm. Steer clear of long periods of time spent in baths and hot tubes, and make sure to use a cooling pad with your laptop.
Intercourse
Sex can be bad for sperm? Yes, if it's occurring too frequently. When couples are trying to conceive, especially if they haven't had much luck in the initial months of trying, it can be tempting to be overzealous in their attempts and have intercourse several times per day. Infertility and male virility are not always linked – men can have a high sex drive, but still experience infertility. If the demand “exceeds the supply” then sperm count can be decreased.

5. FORGET CYBER-WARFARE—TO REALLY CRIPPLE THE INTERNET, YOU NEED SCUBA GEAR AND A PAIRE OF WIRE CUTTERS.
The good news is that it’s hard to cut through a submarine communications cable, if only because of the thousands of very lethal volts running through each of them. The bad news is that it is possible, as seen in Egypt in 2013. There, just north of Alexandria, men in wetsuits were apprehended having intentionally cut through the South-East-Asia-Middle-East-West-Europe 4 cable, which runs 12,500 miles and connects three continents. Internet speeds in Egypt were crippled by 60 percent until the line could be repaired.

4. SUBMARINE COMMUNICATIONS CABLES ARE FASTER AND CHEAPER THAN SATELLITES. CHEAPER THAN SATELLITES.
Though fiber optic cables and communications satellites were
both developed in the 1960s, satellites have a two-fold problem: latency and bit loss. Sending and receiving signals to and from space takes time. Meanwhile, researchers have developed optical fibers that can transmit information at
99.7 percent the speed of light. For an idea of what the Internet would be like without undersea cables, visit Antarctica, the only continent without a physical connection to the net. The continent relies on satellites, and
bandwidth is at a premium.

3. THE INTERNET IS AS VULNERABLE UNDERWATER AS IT IS UNDERGROUND.
While the ocean is free of construction equipment that might otherwise combine to form
Devastator, there are many ongoing aquatic threats to the submarine cables. Sharks aside, the Internet is ever at risk of being disrupted by
boat anchors, trawling by fishing vessels, and
natural disasters. A Toronto-based company has proposed running a cable through the Arctic that connects Tokyo and London. This was previously considered impossible, but climate change and the melting ice caps have moved the proposal firmly into the
doable-but-really-expensive category.

2. SHARKS ARE TRYING TO EAT THE INTERNET.
There’s disagreement as to why, exactly, sharks like
gnawing on submarine communications cables. Maybe it has something to do with electromagnetic fields. Maybe they’re just curious. Maybe they’re trying to disrupt our communications infrastructure before mounting a land-based assault. (My theory.) The point remains that sharks are chewing on the Internet, and sometimes damage it. In response, companies such as Google are shielding their cables in shark-proof wire wrappers.

The Internet is really just a spaghetti-work of really long wires. But what we see is just a small part of the physical makeup of the net. The rest of it can be found in the coldest depths of the ocean.Ninety-nine percent of international data is transmitted by wires at the bottom of the ocean called submarine communications cables. In total, they are
hundreds of thousands of miles long and can be as deep as Everest Is tall.
Here are some things you might not know about the Internet’s system of undersea cables.

1. CABLE INSTALLATION IS SLOW, TEDIOUS, EXPENSIVE WORK.
The cables are installed by special boats called cable-layers. It’s more than a matter of dropping wires with anvils attached to them—the cables must generally be run across flat surfaces of the ocean floor, and care is taken to avoid coral reefs, sunken ships, fish beds, and other ecological habitats and general obstructions.
The size difference is related to simple vulnerability—there’s not much going on 8000 feet below sea level; consequently, there’s less need for galvanized shielding wire.

Hezikiel28:
I took d text today with zero problem

Test is cool. Google is our helper

teshyberry:
Pls help me
I tried logging in with my phone number and BVN but it says invalid .
Later it showed bvn validation in progress check again later

Bvn validation is going on. Its one of the reasons why everybody cant write the online on the same day. I believe the other factor is the test schedule. Just hold on..

chiscodedon:
Which device did u select

U are yet to go for verification let alone employed by npower.
Selection of device is done after the above processes must have been done successfully

Annie2059:
Why? I was given only 5mins for the test, I thought it is supposed to be 20mins?

Twenty minutes is the normal time allowed. I guess it's just a software issue which would be corrected much later. You know you are yet to attempt the test. By then they would have rectified the issue

DiGiTaLIYKE:
Hi guys, just done with my tests.
But what happens to the Skill and Acquisition part of the test?
Are we to attempt them too?

I need clarifications, pls

The skill and acquisition part of the test is for those who chose any of the computer (STEM) skills during registration.
You have to attempt the second part of the test too. I did my some hours ago

donezra:
My folks and I haven't received text message or mail for the N-teach. Abeg o before we loss, can we still write the test?

I logged in with my phone number and bvn and wrote the test without receiving a text. I guess this npower sms is either simply unreliable or isn't working anymore.
Note:you would write two tests if u chose any of the npower teach stem skills during registration
