Gov. Godwin Obaseki of Edo said Saturday’s council elections in the state were peaceful and expressed satisfaction with the process.

The governor, who voted in polling unit 19 in Ward 4, Oredo, at about 12.35 p.m, commended Edo State Independent Electoral Commission (EDSIC) for putting in place adequate logistics for the exercise.

“I learnt that the materials were distributed promptly, even as far as to Edo North Senatorial District. The only ugly situation was in Egor and that has been handled,’’ he said.

He expressed satisfaction with turnout of voters in his unit and ward, noting that the councillorship and chairmanship candidates did well in mobilizing voters to participate in the election.

Obaseki said that boycott of the exercise by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), the major opposition political party in the state, did not affected voter-turnout.

“We can confidently say the opposition party is not in existence in the state. Every politician aspires from the units and if you do not give them the platform, they will seek it outside.”

On expectations in 2019 elections, the governor said “the council election has been peaceful and this is a precursor to 2019 elections; Edo is an APC state, maybe the contest will be outside the state.”

Ten 10 political parties were cleared by EDSIEC to participate in the elections. They are All Progressives Congress (APC), Democratic Alternative (DA), Democratic Peoples Party (DPP) and Green Party of Nigeria (GPN).

Others are Progressive People Alliance (PPA), Acton Democratic Party (ADP), Social Democratic Party (SDP), Labour Party (LP), National Conscience Party (NCP) and People for Democratic Change (PDC).

Meanwhile, the Edo State Independent Electoral Commission (EDSIEC) has commended security agencies in the state for providing effective security for Saturday’s local government elections in the state.

Chairman of the commission, Prof. Stanley Orobator, gave the commendation when the Commissioner of Police in the state, Mr Johnson Kokumo, visited the commission while monitoring the elections in Benin.

Orobator said that the commission was, for the first time, experiencing smooth and efficient security arrangement which had contributed to the smooth electoral process.

He said the presence of security personnel made the build-up to the elections “less stressful”, adding that no challenge was experienced.

He said that some staff of the commission even had to sleep in the office to ensure protection of materials and early delivery of election materials across the state.

Earlier, Kokumo had said that his presence in the commission was to get on-the-spot assessment of activities and conduct of personnel deployed for the elections.

He said security agencies were constitutionally empowered to protect the lives of citizens and also provide security in such cases as during elections.

The police boss, who had earlier visited some polling units in Benin, said he was impressed with conduct of voters.

He said no report of arrest of any person for any electoral offence had been received from any of the 18 local government areas in the state.

Sixteen thousand security personnel, including 7, 000 policemen, 5, 000 Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) personnel and 1,500 personnel from the Nigerian Army were deployed for the elections.

A 24-year-old mother of 3 has given birth to a set of twins in Zaria, with one of them having four hands and three legs. According to DailyTrust, Malama Hawwa’u Jamilu delivered the twins on Sunday, 25th February, 2018. .


Strangely, Hawwa’u was not perturbed about the physique of her baby. She told Daily Trust that she regarded it as part of the might of Allah. “Both of them are female. Of course, one would have loved to deliver the babies without any deformity. But since Allah in His infinite mercy had decided to create the twins like this, what can I do? This is why you see me relaxed, and I love them both.



The only peculiar behaviour exhibited by the deformed twin, is a big appetite. Apart from that. She is normal like any other baby. Have you forgotten that I carried her in my womb for nine months? I love my daughter and I know that she is human, despite her physical challenge," Hawwa’u said, adding that she has given birth three times before now, making the twins her fourth delivery during her six years of marriage. .


Similarly, Hawwa’u said she doesn’t attend ante-natal sessions, saying that she delivered her other children at home, same as the twins. A doctor at the Ahmadu Bello University Teaching Hospital (ABUTH), Dr. Umar Abdul’aziz, said the extra leg and hands can be removed and the little girl can have a normal life.

A Fort Bend County jury has convicted a 59-year - old Nigerian man for stabbing his ex-girlfriend to death in 2015.

Osa Alohaneke was charged with stabbing and killing Cameroonian native, Evelyne Evans Epiepang, 52, in her Fort Bend County, Texas home on Wednesday April 8th, 2015.



Alohaneke was sentenced to 40 years in prison in January, 2018.

Amanda Bolin, Fort Bend County’s Chief Family Violence Prosecutor, said Evelyne Epiepang called the Fort Bend County Sheriff’ s Office on April 8, around 5 p. m. to report that her ex-boyfriend, Osa Alohaneke, had been threatening to kill her and she wanted him out of her house.

Alohaneke left but sheriff’s deputies took a report from Evelyne before she left to stay with her friend, Veronica Taku.

Around 7 p. m, Evelyne learned that Alohaneke had returned to her home and was banging on the front door.

Evelyne again called the sheriff’ s office for their assistance. Before deputies arrived, Evelyne and Veronica went back to Evelyne’ s home because they thought the defendant had left.

As Evelyne and Taku entered the front door of the home, Alohaneke appeared behind them , came inside and locked the front door.
An argument ensued and the defendant pulled a knife from under his shirt.

Alohaneke first attacked Taku, cutting her face and stabbing her so hard on the arm that it fractured a bone.

The defendant then turned his focus to Evelyne and stabbed her over 30 times. At some point, Evelyne managed to again call 911.
That call recorded her screams and pleas as she died.

After killing Evelyne, Alohaneke told Taku to go ahead and call the sheriff because he had “completed his mission"

Deputies arrived and located the defendant in the front yard with his hands covered in blood and on the phone with his attorney.

Alohaneke was tried in the 400th District Court before Presiding Judge Maggie Jaramillo. Murder is a first - degree felony punishable by 5- 99 years , or life in prison and up to a $10, 000 fine.

Under Texas law, Alohaneke must serve half of his sentence before he can be considered for parole.
Assistant District Attorneys Amanda Bolin and Lauren Valenti prosecuted the case. ttorney Eric Ashford represented the defendant.

Testifying in court on January 10, 2018, Taku narrated how Alohaneke stalked his fiancé and threatened to kill her repeatedly in the hours leading up to the murder.

Taku said Epiepang was afraid to go home. After calling police for help, Taku said she and Epiepang waited in a park for more than an hour before returning to the house to gather some clothing.

Taku said Alohaneke ambushed them at the door and pushed his way inside the house.

"I turned to him and asked ‘What is happening between you and Evelyne?’” Taku testified.

“Osa looked and me and said ‘Do you really want to know?’ and then he pulled out a knife.

Taku said she was screaming for help as Alohaneke stabbed her twice in the face and once on her arm before he turned his attention to his fiancé.

Taku testified she screamed for help through a bedroom window and watched in terror as Alohaneke chased his fiancé, tripped her and then pounced on her with the knife, stabbing her over and over until she was no longer moving.

“When Evelyne grew quiet, Osa laid down next to her. I thought he was dead too because he turned completely white, his clothes, his skin, white like a corpse, and then I passed out,” Taku testified.

Jurors listened to a recording of a 911 call about two hours before the murder wherein Epiepang told police Alohaneke had threatened to kill her over and over and she wanted him to leave her house.

A second 911 recording was played and jurors listen as a 911 operator answers and loud screams echo repeatedly in the courtroom as Epiepang is fighting for her life.

Several jurors appeared shaken by the recording and turn their eyes to Alohaneke.
