You Will Not Kpai Before Your Time, Say Amen

Mr Blogger Is Praying For You 🙏 Right Now.

Two persons, a mother and child, have died on the spot, and others were hospitalised after a trailer lost control and rammed into a commercial vehicle at the Ulasi River Bridge, Okija Junction in Ihiala Local Government Area of Anambra State.

City Round gathered that the crash occurred late on Thursday when the driver of the trailer experienced brake failure and crashed into the Toyota Hiace bus on the bridge, resulting in multiple fatalities.

Some eyewitnesses and residents near the scene said the vehicle, which was coming from Upper Iweka area and travelling to Owerri, was stopped by some touts allegedly collecting revenue when the trailer’s brakes failed and hit the vehicle behind.

A video of the accident, which circulated on social media, showed the damaged vehicle on the road with passers-by and other pedestrians making frantic efforts to rescue the accident victims.

An eyewitness near the scene, who gave his name as Ibeabuchi Edeoga, told City Round that the accident involved a Toyota Hiace and a trailer truck.

He said, “The accident was caused by touts who blocked the road and were collecting revenue from commercial drivers. But unfortunately, a trailer truck that was on speed failed to brake and ran over the bus, killing two people, a woman and her child instantly.

“Many passengers involved in the accident were rushed to a nearby hospital. But all of the victims were unconscious when they were taken to the hospital. But as of this morning, some victims have died.”

Another eyewitness, Uchenna Odinaka, said, “I was heading home when the incident happened. It could have been more disastrous, but the railings by the bridge stopped the truck from going further to hitting other vehicles and road users.

“It happened during the rush hours when everyone was trying to get home. The trailer driver and the motor boy were rescued. Two people died on the spot, while several others who were unconscious were rushed to a nearby hospital.”

When contacted on the development on Friday, the spokesperson for the Federal Road Safety Corps, Anambra sector, Margaret Onabe, confirmed the incident, but could not, however, give the actual casualty figure.

“Yes, we received the report of the accident, but we are still investigating the cause of the crash and will issue a statement with information soon.”

Bank Must Notify You, If They Placed PND on any of your bank accounts, if they didn't notify you and freeze your bank accounts, you have the right to seek for Re-adress At High Court.

Mr Blogger, Reporting This Bank Gist To You.

A High Court of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, has ordered a commercial bank to pay N85million damages for freezing its customer’s account without a valid court order.

The court, in the judgement that was delivered by Justice S. U. Bature, further directed both the bank and the Nigeria Police Force, NPF, to publish a public apology to the customer, Abhulimen & Co, in two national newspapers and on its website.

Justice Bature held that the bank’s decision to freeze the account, based on a supposed order by a Magistrate Court, without notifying the said customer, was illogical and a betrayal of the banker-customer relationship that existed between the parties.

The court wondered how the financial institution which had a legal department that is manned by lawyers, hinged its action on an invalid order by a Magistrate Court that  lacked the jurisdiction to entertain any banking related case, including issuing orders for  the freezing of an account.

The judgement followed a suit marked: FCT/HC/CV/2194/2024, which was brought before the court by Mr. Paulyn O. Abhulimen, SAN.

Cited as 1st and 2nd defendants in the matter were Zenith Bank Plc and the Nigeria Police Force, NPF.

The claimant had through the law firm of Kehinde & Partners LP, approached the court, claiming that sometimes in 2024, after being unable to access the account of her firm –  Abhulimen & Co – or to make transactions with it, she discovered that the bank placed a Post-No-Debit, PND, order on it.

According to the claimant, she subsequently contacted an official of the bank that was in charge of the account, who told her about the restriction, following which the bank, in March 13, 2024, claimed to have frozen the  account based on an order the NPF obtained from a Chief Magistrates Court in Mararaba Gurku, Nasarawa State.

In his judgement, Justice Bature held that the bank acted on an invalid order made by a court that lacked the requisite jurisdiction.

“The said account was opened at the 1st defendant’s Transcorp Hilton branch, here in Abuja, and the 2nd defendant is also domiciled in Abuja.

“The rationale behind seeking the said order at a Magistrate Court under the Nasarawa State jurisdiction cannot be understood, and the 2nd defendant did not appear to be able to give any explanation or reason as to why they decided to follow this line of action.

“The said Magistrate Court lacked the territorial jurisdiction to entertain the application.

“And, regarding the substantive jurisdiction of the court to make the order, it is clear from the provisions of Section 251 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (1999 as amended), that matters relating to banks and banking transactions are within the exclusive jurisdiction of the Federal High Court, and matters relating to banker-customer disputes are jointly under the jurisdiction of the Federal High Court, State High Courts and High Court of the FCT,” the court held.

Justice Bature further maintained that the Magistrate Court was bereft of the powers to entertain an application for an order to freeze a bank account of a person, and should not have entertained the said application.

“The legal department of the 1st defendant, being lawyers, should have been aware of this position of the law and taken the appropriate action in this situation, as they ought not to have obeyed the court order in the first place.

“Thus, the 1st defendant was wrong to have placed a PND on the account of the claimant based on the order of a court lacking the requisite jurisdiction to do so. I so hold,” Justice Bature held.

He judge faulted the failure of the bank to inform the claimant about its decision to freeze her company’s account, describing it as a breach of the duty of care it owed to its customers.

“It is the humble opinion of this honourable court that, the 1st defendant owed the claimant a duty of care of duly informing her that her account had been frozen.

“The 1st defendant placed a Post-No-Debit on the account of the claimant’s firm, but same was not communicated to the claimant until she encountered difficulties in the use of the said account.

“It is the humble opinion of this honourable court that, the 1st defendant owed the claimant a duty of care of duly informing her that her account had been frozen.

“The failure of the 1st defendant to inform the claimant of the state of affairs on her account amounts to negligence on the part of the 1st defendant and hence, a breach of duty of care and due diligence owed to the claimant. I so hold,” the court added.

Consequently, aside from ordering the 1st defendant to immediately vacate the Post-No-Debit order placed on the claimant’s account an to tender an apology to the claimant, the court awarded damages in favour of the litigant.

“The defendants are hereby ordered to jointly and severally pay the sum of N60million to the claimant as general damages for the embarrassment, psychological trauma, financial distress, emotional stress and grave inconveniences suffered by the claimant due to the defendants’ actions.

“The defendants are hereby ordered to jointly and severally pay the sum of N25m to the claimant as cost of this action,” the court further held.

Mr Blogger, Is Here Doing His God's Work

MR Blogger, Reporting This Olosho News Coming All The Way From GHANA COUNTRY.

Five Nigerian women suspected of being sex workers have been arrested by the police in Ghana.

It was gathered that the women were arrested with seven Ghanian men during a police operation aimed at curbing criminal activities in the Asokwa Municipality, located in Ghana’s Ashanti Region.

The arrests took place during a surprise security raid led by the Asokwa District Police on Tuesday, July 30, 2025.

Officers targeted known ghettos in an effort to catch suspected criminals before they could act.

A total of twelve people including seven men and five women were picked up during the operation.

The five women later admitted to police that they were involved in prostitution to make ends meet.

The arrested women were identified as Empress David (22), Sonia Isaac (24), Loveth Michael (18), Success Moses (21), and Victor Alice (23).

“On 30/7/25, between the hours of 1800 and 2000, the Asokwa District Command embarked on swoop exercise within Asokwa Municipality. That during the exercise 12 people were arrested,” the police statement read.

“Five of the suspects are female Nigerians who admitted having been engaging in prostitution at Sokoban Wood Village,” adding that all the suspects are in police custody.

“The seven males, who were also nabbed are Jacob Amaliba, 30, Usif Awuro, 39, Adu Kofi, 22, Kwame Atobiga, 39, Isaac Boamah, 27, Emmanuel Boakye, 29, and Pekazine Puakan, 28.”

The police statement added that “the seven males were also arrested from various ghettos suspected to be ‘Wee’ Base at Asago.”

Police said they searched the suspects but found no illegal items.

All twelve individuals are currently in custody, and further investigation is ongoing.

Police said the suspects will be screened and profiled as part of the process.

This comes a few days after Senator Bassey Aniekan condemned recent protests in Ghana where some citizens called for Nigerians to be deported.

As You Wake Up From Sleep, Pray Very Hard, So That, Nigeria Will Not Happen To You, Crying 😢

“We slept in hundreds, like packed sardines in a room that was supposed to accommodate twenty people. We battled skin rashes to head lice, bedbugs and then to mental disorder,” 50-Year-Old Idris (not real name) narrated his hellish experience behind bars at Ibara Correctional Center in Abeokuta, Ogun State

His journey began on a sunny afternoon when he sighted his old-time friend around the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, secretariat, opposite NNPC mega station in Abeokuta.

Filled with euphoria, he hurriedly parked his car and crossed over to greet him. Unknown to Idris, a cult fracas had ensued the previous day and this led to confrontation and shooting at the scene.

“They started shooting, I was shot, and I shot at many people also, but I was overpowered since there were many and the person I went to greet had fled the scene. I had a cut on my neck which landed me at the Federal Medical Center, Idi-Aba where I spent almost a month, from there I was taken to Ibara police station, then to Eleweran and after spending months I taken to court and charged for attempted murder and unlawful possession of firearms and ammunition,” he told DAILY POST.

Life in ‘Hell’ called prison


Idris, who was an awaiting trial inmate spent almost two years before the Islamic Humanitarian Service (IHS) came to his rescue. He described the Ibara correctional center as ‘nothing but hell’ as his cell room filled with other inmates was beside the kitchen.

“It was like a dream. I asked myself, am I going to sleep here today? Will I still be going out? But I had to spend some years and months. The Ibara prison is nothing to write home about but hell. My cell room was beside the kitchen; we would be feeling heat day and night. It’s highly overcrowded, do you know how we sleep? If you open a sardine that was packed, that’s how we slept in prison, mental disorderliness, from skin rashes to head lice and then to bedbugs,” he sighed, shaking his head slowly.

“What they even served is nothing to write home about. A food that cannot feed a boy of 10 or 8 years, but they would serve it three times daily. Rice is for Wednesdays and Saturdays, while garri and beans are on other days. If you eat the soup too much it gives you a disability, we usually call it ‘Sapa ti mu mi lepon’ (meaning hunger has affected my scrotum).

Overcrowded And Overlooked

The Nigerian Correctional Service (NCoS) formerly known as Nigerian Prisons Service (NPS) was officially changed on August 15, 2019, when President Muhammadu Buhari signed the Nigerian Correctional Service Act 2019 into law. The change was intended to reflect a paradigm shift from mere punishment to treatment and rehabilitation, with the aim of moving from a punitive and custodial-focused approach to one that prioritizes reformation, rehabilitation, and social reintegration of offenders.

Sadly, these facilities have become dumping grounds leading to overcrowding and thus denying inmates of adequate space, sanitation, and healthcare.

According to 2025 statistics from the Correctional Services, facilities across the country hold a total number of 81,287 inmates, with 27,701 convicted and a total of 53,178 awaiting trial. The inmates include 79,193 male and 2,006 female, with 51,679 male and 1,499 female awaiting trial.

In Ogun State, Ibara correctional centre, Abeokuta, built with the capacity of 700, presently holds double of its intended capacity- 1,468 inmates, while the Oba correctional center built at a capacity of 850 holds 999 inmates.

Idris lamented the poor and limited access to medical care at the correctional centre. Some inmates died of ulcers, while others ran mad when they had measles, he said.

He revealed that they are only given paracetamol and in cases where it is severe, the family of the inmate would have to cover the hospital bills.

“When I was there people died of ulcer. I was also a victim of ulcer, but I was saved. I don’t know if they were hoarding the drugs, but they don’t have enough. They can only give you paracetamol and analgesic tablets. I remembered back then, two people ran mad when they had measles. I don’t know where they are now.

He blamed the congestion of correctional facilities, delay in the legal system, among others, saying it also gives them trauma.

‘Correctional Centers Breed Criminals’

Findings showed that a number of facilities no longer serve its full purpose as some, on coming out, become worse and commit more grievous offenses. In recent times, most perpetrators arrested by security agencies are found to be ex-convicts who had served their term or were given state pardon.

Idris opined that correction facilities unlike in the past now serve as den for criminals, arguing that most inmates become professionals after blending with hardened criminals.

He said, “There are cases that aren’t supposed to be in prisons, they should be committed to community works and services. Some are there because of N1,000, others N5,000, and they keep them there, some come with stealing, and it will be graduated to robbery.

“Do you know some are in prison for armed robbery and are still robbing outside?” He asked.

He added: “They are still having their own share of the robbery taking place outside the prison. Some are there with lesser crimes and are adopted and taken care of by those with capital offenses, such a person would be a loyalist to the person taking care of him.”

Please Look Into Our Situation – Inmate Tells Government

An inmate from the Ibara Correctional Centre, Ayomide Olagoke urged the state government to look into the congestion of their facilities, saying that inmates are suffering and dying every day.

Olagoke, a master’s degree holder in Banking and Finance, spoke to DAILY POST during his convocation ceremony from West African College For Christian Missions, where he bagged bachelor’s in theology.

Speaking during the ceremony held at the facility, he insisted that they’ve left behind their old ways and are now changed people, begging the government to intensify its effort in granting pardon and amnesty.

His words: “We implore the government to look into our situation; we are now a change agent the world is waiting to see. And as a matter of fact, every man deserves a second chance, the center is congested and as a result, people are suffering and dying every day. You can imagine husbands and wives in custody awaiting trial for seven, eight, nine years and the question is what will become of the children they’ve left behind?

“The people on death row and life imprisonment, they are just too numerous. We plead to the state government to intensify efforts in granting pardon and amnesty to this category of people,” he begged.

Inmates Are Kept In Deplorable Conditions – Ogun CJ

The Chief Judge of Ogun State, Justice Mosunmola Dipeolu, recently lamented that aside from the centers being highly congested, the inmates are kept in a deplorable condition.

Dipeolu disclosed this in the Sagamu correctional center, noting that inmates cannot lie down, rather they sit or stand, adding that this was detrimental to their health.

She made this known in an interview with newsmen after carrying out jail delivery exercises to decongest the facilities in the state, attributing the congestion to some inmates who have been in custody since 2013 and are still awaiting trial.

She said, “Obviously the center is highly congested, like we observed at Sagamu, the condition under which they are kept is very deplorable.

“There’s no cell where the inmates can lie down, it’s either they stand, or they sit, and this is not good for their health.

“Some of them were recommended for release on grounds of health and from our record, most of these cases are before the high court. We have had cases of inmates in custody since 2013, so the longest awaiting trial inmates here have been here in the last 12 years and are still awaiting trial,” the chief judge lamented.

The Ogun State Controller of Corrections, Abioye Adesina, told DAILY POST that despite several decongestions carried out in the state, the correctional facilities remained overcrowded.

He maintained that the state’s correctional facilities face lots of challenges, including logistics, urging Governor Dapo Abiodun to help them with more vehicles.

Adesina said, “Definitely, there is a reduction now, even though it is not as much as what we wanted, but they are reduced now. There is no correctional center that does not have the issue of logistics, we only manage what we have, but we are still appealing to the State Government to help us with more vehicles or repair the ones on ground so that operations can continue.”

Decongestion Measures Only Exist On Paper – Lawyer

Ogaga Ediru, a legal practitioner and law lecturer at Philomath University, Abuja, expressed concern that decongestion measures in correctional facilities only exist on paper.

He explained that Section 12(4),(7) of the Nigerian Correctional Service Act 2019, states that when a custodial centre exceeds its capacity, the State Controller must notify the relevant authorities within one week and upon receiving the notification, the relevant authorities have three months to take necessary steps to address the overcrowding.

He regretted that in practice, these provisions are often not adhered to.

Ediru, who is also a Health Law Scholar, and Researcher argued that overcrowding can also affect the rendering of healthcare services to inmates, leading to poor hygiene, sanitation, quantity and quality of food, as well as fostering the outbreak and spread of infectious diseases.

He said, “Unfortunately, these measures only exist on paper. Empirical data still show that Correctional Centers are still overcrowded till date and as a result, the living conditions and welfare of inmates have deteriorated drastically.

“Section 23 of the Nigerian Correctional Service Act 2019 mandates the Nigerian Correctional Service to put in place healthcare services for the promotion and protection of the physical and mental health, prevention and treatment of diseases of prisoners in custody.

“Although the duties of the Correctional Service are not expressly linked to overcrowding under the Act, it is only logical to conclude that overcrowding in these centers can adversely affect the rendering of these healthcare services.

‘Blame Slow Pace Of Getting Justice’

The lawyer, however, pointed accusing fingers at the country’s ‘sluggish’ trial system, noting that many inmates are awaiting trial for relatively minor offences and for longer periods of time than the law allows.

Ediru, maintaining that prison decongestion requires a multi-dimensional approach that includes legal, administrative, social policy, and judicial reforms, called on government at all levels to increase the number of judges and magistrates, particularly in the criminal divisions, improve the police forensic and investigative capabilities, and put an end to the practice of detaining suspects without charge.

“The Federal and state governments should appoint more judges and magistrates to reduce the workload on judges and reduce delay trials.

“Criminal justice reform should be made a national agenda, championed by the presidency and governors, thereby increasing budgetary allocation to the justice sector.

“There is also a need to amend outdated laws like the Criminal Code and Penal Code to reflect modern realities and non-custodial measures,” he concluded.

They vacated for the long vac on 19th July.
She may have wrongly followed bus taking Anambra students home or she may have gone to Onitsha to enter Lagos bus and missed her way and eventually fall into the hands of bad boys.
I have written to the school to check if the girl is one of their students.
I even sent the video to my daughter to check if she knows the student since she attends the same school.

This is so heart breaking.

A young man identified as Stephen Chidubem has been confirmed dead after allegedly taking his own life at his residence on Abba Street, behind the Anglican Church in Saburi 2, Abuja.

This was made known by a counter-insurgency expert and security analyst in the Lake Chad region, Zagazola Makama, in a post on his X handle on Thursday.

Makama disclosed that Chidubem hung himself using a rope tied to a ceiling fan.

According to the report, emergency responders arrived at the scene and evacuated the body to Kubwa General Hospital.

He was confirmed dead by a medical doctor, and the corpse was subsequently deposited at the hospital’s mortuary for autopsy.

Makama said a suicide note recovered at the scene pointed to gambling addiction as the cause of the tragic act.

In the note, Chidubem apologized to those he owed and to those he believed were affected by his financial troubles.

The note read in part: “Sorry to everyone who cared, I can’t continue putting people in trouble because of my gambling addiction. Please forgive me Elvis, Paul, and all I’m owing. And you, Bishop Andy Ero, give the balance of ₦507,500 to Elvis or Paul.”

It was gathered that the deceased had been struggling with a severe gambling addiction that plunged him into debt and emotional distress.
