Politics › Recalled Envoy, Diplomat Arrive Today, Indonesia Defends Assault by olatade(op): 10:22am On Aug 12, 2021
Nigerian diplomat, the aggressor, elbowed immigration official – Ambassador
THE Nigerian High Commissioner to Indonesia, Usman Ogar and a diplomat, Abdulrrahman Ibrahim, who was assaulted by immigration officers in the South East Asian country, will arrive in the country today.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs disclosed this to The PUNCH on Wednesday as the Indonesian High Commissioner to Nigeria, Dr Usra Harahap, told the Minister of Foreign affairs, Geoffrey Onyeama, in Abuja that the Nigerian diplomat was the aggressor during his (Ibrahim) encounter with some immigration officers.

The PUNCH had on Wednesday reported that Ibrahim was assaulted in a car by some Indonesian immigration officials in Jakarta.

The August 7 incident had sparked a diplomatic row between Nigeria and the Indonesian authorities with the Federal Government recalling Ogar for consultation, while threatening a review of the bilateral relations between the two nations.

The spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Mrs Esther Sunsuwa, in an interview with The PUNCH on Wednesday, said, “The Federal Government will make its position known after consulting with the recalled Nigerian envoy expected to arrive in the country along with Ibrahim on Thursday (today).”

Recall that the minister had on Monday summoned Harahap over the assault of the Nigerian diplomat in Jakarta.

Our correspondent on Wednesday obtained a copy of the Indonesian envoy’s presentation to Onyeama during the Monday meeting.



Giving an account of the incident, the envoy disclosed that the immigration officers from South Jakarta Immigration Office were carrying out surveillance on foreigners when they asked Ibrahim for identification but the diplomat allegedly refused to identify himself or tender his passport.

He stated “By that time, they met with Mr Ibrahim, and politely requested him to show his travel document. He answered that his passport was in his room.

“Then the officer asked again, ‘Can we see your travel document to check the residence permit and if there are no problems with the document, so you may continue your activities

“Mr Ibrahim was not willing to show his passport and said to the officer, ‘you will know who really I am and be careful on that.

“Instead of showing his identity card, Mr Ibrahim was angry and said, ‘Just arrest me and you will regret to know who really I am.’

“The officer said, ‘We will not detain you further sir, if you can show us your identity card.’ Then Mr Ibrahim said, ‘Where is your car, I’ll come to your office.’

“On the way to the immigration office in South Jakarta, several incidents happened. Mr Ibrahim elbowed the immigration officer, Mr Laode Hauzan Baidi, who was sitting next to him until Mr Laode’s lip was bleeding.

FG to fine DisCos ₦1000 for disconnecting customers’ electricity supply
The Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) plans to fine electricity distribution companies (DisCos) for wrongfully disconnecting customers’ electricity supply.

NEWS AGENCY OF NIGERIA • JULY 30, 2021

The Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) plans to fine electricity distribution companies (DisCos) for wrongfully disconnecting customers’ electricity supply.

The commission proposed that any DisCo that disconnected a customer’s electricity supply “in violation of this regulation commits an offence and is liable upon conviction to pay the customer a penalty.”

The penalties as specified in the regulation are residential ₦1,000, commercial ₦1,500, and industrial ₦2,000.

“A DisCo which disconnects a customer supply in violation of these regulations shall compensate the customer on equivalent of 100 per cent daily energy cap for every day the wrongful disconnection lasts. This shall be determined based on the previous month’s bill or consumption,” stated NERC.

“In the event of a property left unoccupied” for some time following the exit of the occupant, said the commission, “a new occupant of premises should contact the DisCo on their first day of moving into the premises, which the DisCos should take into consideration for billing such customers.”

The commission, however, noted that if a new occupant fails to inform the DisCo of the commencement date, it would be “deemed to be a continuation of the old occupant regime.”

NERC further explained that the new occupant would take responsibility for the payment of any outstanding bills.

The paper also proposed that when a DisCo “has overcharged a customer,” it should advise the customer in writing within five days of becoming aware of the error and repay “the amount” by crediting “the exact amount” of the overcharge to the customers’ next bill.



In addition, NERC proposed that, in the case of “undercharge from incorrect billing,” the DisCos might establish the undercharge and recover the amount for not less than three months.

On replacement of faulty or obsolete meter, NERC said, “A meter shall be considered faulty and not in compliance with the distribution metering code if it is determined that any part on that metering system does not comply with the code.”

A Saudi Arabian judoka faced off against her Israeli opponent at the Tokyo Olympics today - defying pressure to follow the lead of two other Muslim athletes who boycott their bouts.


Tahani al-Qahtani fought against Raz Hershko in the women's 78kg category at Tokyo on Friday, before the pair clasped hands and raised them in the air as a show of solidary when the bout was over.

Questions had swirled over whether the bout would go ahead after two Muslim athletes in the men's 73kg competition walked out rather than get in the ring with an Israeli opponent.

Algerian fighter Fethi Nourine was the first to quit after the competition draw meant he would have been forced to fight Israeli Tohar Butbul on his way to the medals.

Nourine was first due to fight Mohamed Abdalrasool of Sudan, with the winner of that fight guaranteed to face Butbul because of the way the seeing system works.

The Algerian quit the contest before even facing Abdalrasool, saying he didn't want to 'get my hands dirty' by risking a fight with the Israeli.

It is the second time Nourine has quit a contest because Butbul was due to face him, saying it is part of a protest in solidarity with Palestinians.

He was subsequently suspended by the Algerian Olympic Committee and judo's governing body, and send home from Tokyo.

His withdrawal meant Abdalrasool progressed automatically to fight Butbul, but then he also withdrew from the contest.

Abdalrasool never made the reasons for his withdrawal explicitly clear, though it is thought he also did not want to fight the Israeli.

That left questions hanging over Al-Qahtani and Hershko's fight, which ultimately went ahead on Friday.

Hershko won the bout by ippon - the judo equivalent of a knockout blow - after just one minute and 44 seconds.

The pair bowed to one-another after the bout, before Hershko advanced across the ring and the two fighters shook hands.

Hershko then lifted the Saudi's hand in the air in a show of mutual respect.

In her next bout, Hershko face off against Japanese opponent Akira Sone who beat her by ippon after three minutes.

Sone went on to claim gold in the event - Japan's ninth in judo alone - beating Idalys Ortiz of Cuba by ippon after almost nine minutes in the ring.


Al-Qahtani's show of solidarity with Hershko comes amid shifting alliances in the Middle East, with a number of Muslim countries breaking with a decades-long boycott of the country by normalising relations.

Traditionally, Islamic and particularly Arab Islamic countries have refused to deal with Israel until Palestinian people are granted their own state.

Politics › Reasons Why The FBI Is Looking For Our "Super Cop" by olatade(op): 8:54pm On Jul 29, 2021
In case you don't understand why the US government through the FBI is looking for our super cop, Abba Kyari, let me break it down in a way that you will understand so here we go:
1) Hushpuppi, his friend Kelly Chibuzor Vincent and their yahoo gang defrauded a Qatari citizen to the tune of 1.1 million dollars.
After the deed has been done, Hushpppi sent money to Chibuzor who was living in Abuja as part of his proceeds from the deal.
Hushpuppi out of greed did not pay Chibzor the agreed sum they both agreed before the execution of the job, feeling cheated, Chibozor contacted the businessman from Qatar and sang like a canary bird that his gang defrauded him.
2)When Hushpuppi heard what his friend in the yahoo business did, he felt betrayed and was furious. He picked his phone and called his ally and friend, Abba Kyari, he told him what Chibzor did to him and then requested that the betrayer should be detained at his pleasure for stabbing him in the back.
3) Abba Kyari provided an account number, not his, the account number belonged to a policeman in his IRT to Hushpuppi who wired money, the reason the money was sent was to mobilize the policemen that went to pick up Chibuzor for betraying the Instagram celebrity.
4)Immediately Chibzor was arrested and detained, Abba Kyari sent a message across to Hushpuppi via Whatsapp informing him that Chibzor had been arrested.
"He is now in my cell," he wrote on WhatsApp. He then sent the picture of the detained Chibuzor at the police cell to Hushpuppi to confirm whether he was the one that betrayed him.
Abbas known as Hushpuppi confirmed yes that the idiot is the one. Abbas requested Abba Kyari's account details, money was sent to him by Hush for doing a good solid job.
5) Chibuzor was detained for 1 month at the pleasure of Hushpuppi. All through the period, Chibuzor was detained, he was not charged to court rather Hushpupp was sending money to the police officer whose account was provided at the beginning for mobilization.
6) After One-month incarceration, God touched Hushpuppi's heart, he then sent a message to his police ally and friend that Chibuzor should be freed from police detention.
A request that was properly complied with by the IRT team headed by Abba Kyari.
7) Chibizor is today at large as nobody knows his whereabouts but the action he took by reporting to the victim of their fraud in Qatar that they scammed him is one of the reasons that led to the fall of Hushpuppi's criminal empire.
The Qatari citizen who was scammed made a formal report to the FBI, the FBI team went to action immediately and uncovered the whole heist that implicated our beloved Abba Kyari.
9)FBI is looking for Abba Kyari for being an accomplice to fraud, nothing more than this.
FBI is not looking for him for running a Jumia delivery business in his police office as a side hustle.
They are not looking for him because Hushpuppi was his younger friend and ally.
He committed a crime when he used the instrument of his office to arrest Chibuzor knowing fully well that the crime he committed was singing like a bird to the victim scammed by Huspuppi and his gang.
