A commercial cyclist and a police officer have been killed in Ado Local Government Area of Benue State by suspected terrorists/herdsmen.

IDOMA VOICE gathered that the sad incident occurred earlier this morning before the Idokpo Market. The police officer was attacked at the Police post before the Market and after the Army post. They shot the officer at close range while the commercial cyclist unsuspectingly ran into the assailants.

Mc Johnson Odey, the Special Adviser on Security to the Ado Local government Executive Chairman, quoted James Oche has described the act as cruel, inhuman and intolerable and has vowed to, at whatever cost bring the perpetrators to book.

The Council Boss is embittered by the development and has said there is no room for criminals and their elements in Ado further expressing his zeal to, in using the instrumentality of the law sanitize his domain.

The chairman summoned an emergency meeting of the Local Government Security Council and thereafter personally briefed security agencies who are on course trailing the assailants.

He urges the people to remain calm, law abiding and also volunteer information that would lead to the arrest and prosecution of the killers while promising that his administration was ready for the task of ensuring security of lives and property.

Politics#end SARS: The Speech President Buhari Never Delivered By Enenche by owukpa(op): 8:39am On Oct 22, 2020
Good day Nigerians,

I stand before you today at this solemn moment to add my hope to yours as we move through a trying moment in our history.

As your leader, before I proceed I take responsibility for every action that precipitated this dark cloud of grief over us.

The history of police brutality predated my administration, we have tried in the past to make changes in the Nigeria Police to position her for optimum productivity and efficiency, but the realities of the last two weeks awakens in us that there is so much to be done.


Our youths we referred to as "leaders of tomorrow" clearly showed us that that tomorrow has come.

The Nigerian youths came out in their numbers, defying every sentiment that keeps us apart to press for justice, happiness and sense of pride in their beloved country.

From Lagos to Abuja, Port Harcourt to Aba, Enugu to Akure, Akwuzu to Illorin, the message was loud and clear.

I have never been prouder of the leadership, resilience, hope in our country, faith in ourselves, creativity and innovations demonstrated by our youths as they made their demands known from our streets.




From the streets I saw a lady Jane with clutches, she came out with one leg to add her voice, but she went home with two legs courtesy of the ingenuity and compassion of Nigerians.

From the streets I saw a nursing woman with a child, stretching a twisted fist towards a people to give more meaning to her voice, because the future of the child in her hand must be secured.

From the streets I saw a young lady weeping, she sat on a statue meditating on how her loved ones fell for police brutality, but in that her moment of grief, she still held on to our banner in her hands. She still has hope in Nigeria.

A little girl marched with a flag, demonstrating beauty and courage, believing in our future like we believe in hers.

The music and gyrations sank your messages even harder. The spirit to share food, water and even phone charging points was inspiring and almost made me to join you.

The most astonishing part of the protest is the swiftness to clear the grounds of wastes, young men and women walked behind with leather bags, staining their hands to keep paths of protests clean. I appreciate you for this rare show of leadership.

Thank you once again, like my vice said earlier, we are sorry. We take responsibility for the past and present and would need you to work out the future you are yearning for.

If there is anything your protest taught me, is the fact that the future of Nigeria is bright because you have shown capacity to manage this country well even when we are far gone. Your leadership qualities as expressed on streets in Nigeria and across the globe, if continued would make us the generation before you sleep well in our graves knowing that Nigeria your country is in safe hands.

Your five-point demand was adopted. We immediately banned Special Anti Robbery Squad and not to create a vacuum we created the Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT), and we are working hard on the remaining four which includes setting up Commissions of Inquiry which is being done across the country as I speak.

We are giving SWAT befitting trainings and equipment to equip them in fighting crimes in the most professional way our limited resources can afford, and I am assuring you that no members of the disbanded SARS will be a member of the newly formed SWAT. The Inspector General of Police is working hard on this directive.




The peaceful protests would later become a ground where all manners of interests wanted to hijack to find expressions. Hoodlums attacked protesters, burned down businesses and the lives and properties were in danger.

Last night remains my most traumatic and longest night in my life. Rains of bullets on peaceful protesters left behind rains of tears across homes and faces of Nigerians.




I stand to offer my deepest condolences to families involved and Nigerians at large.

We are still on the situation and would not spare anyone found wanting. The deaths of our youths doing their constitutional right to peaceful protest is regretted and I condemn the act with every sense of pain, anguish and sympathy.




Our youths must see these deaths as painful as they are, these fallen heroes paid the supreme sacrifice standing with our flag, singing our anthem, believing in us and our country even to the very end. They are the true heroes and heroines in our struggle for a New Nigeria.


May God heal Nigeria, Goodnight Nigeria!

Christianity EtcProtest: People've been suppressed, subdued, subjugated enough - Pastor Enenche by owukpa(op):
The Senior Pastor of Dunamis International Gospel Centre, Dr. Paul Enenche, has revealed the reason behind the nationwide outrage.

IDOMA VOICE reports that Nigerians, especially the youths have been on the streets, registering their displeasure over the abnormalities in the land.



The protests have persisted nationwide despite the disbandment of the police formation by the IG.

Reacting however, Dr. Enenche attributed the anger being expressed by Nigerians across the country to the loud impunity, nepotism, tribalism, religionalism, oppression and subjugation in the land
In a video broadcast entitled, The Way of Peace, the trained medical doctor said there can be no peace in the face of hunger and suppression.



According to him, “There is no peace where there is massive injustice, unfairness and lack of equity. There can be no peace in the face of oppression, suppression and subjugation of one people by another. There can be no peace in the face of nepotism, tribalism, regionalism, religionism and every form of such prejudice. There can be no peace in the midst of deprivation, poverty and hunger.”

Dr. Enenche also decried how a section of the country is in charge juicy positions in government while other zones look helplessly.
On the way forward, the cleric called for equity, fairness and justice.

He added, “People have clamoured for restructuring. It is the devolution of power; otherwise, there may be dissolution of union. It happened in other places and we pray and trust God it doesn’t happen in our nation.

“It is not time to play the ostrich and hide the under. What is not confronted cannot be conquered. In medicine we called something the debridement of wound, you expose wounds in order to repair them. “It is time to tell the truth because people have been suppressed, subdued, subjugated and treated as if they don’t reason.

“Nigeria is one of the most intelligent nations in the world. Our doctors and our professionals are the most intelligent in the world. It is time for us to sit up and say these things must be corrected.”

The cleric urged protesters not go violent while expressing their anger.

He added, “As for every protest going on, two wrongs cannot make a right. Protests are encouraged to be peaceful and calm. No destruction of lives and properties in any form. Let lives not flow because of abnormalities in the land.”

CrimeEnd SARS: James Nwafor Goes Into Hiding by owukpa(op): 11:33am On Oct 16, 2020
James Nwafor, a former Senior Special Assistant on Security to Anambra State Governor Willie Obiano , has gone into hiding.

Nigerians have been calling for the sack of Nwafor for violating people’s rights during his reign as the Commander of SARS in Anambra.

The protesters accused Nwafor of killing many youths in the state during his tenure in SARS.

Consequently, Obiano announced his sack and ordered his immediate prosecution.

However, following his sack, Nwafor has gone into hiding.

IDOMA VOICE gathered that some youths went to his family residence in Awka but it was under lock and key and not even a single fly was seen in the compound.

A source hinted our reporter that Nwafor drove out very early on Wednesday with his family when it became evident that they were coming for him.

“He’s nowhere to be found. We heard he left Awka on Wednesday when one of the daughters drew his attention to his pictures trending on social media.”

Christianity EtcEndSARS: Pastor Enenche On Protest 'Nigerians Have Been Keeping Quiet For Long' by owukpa(op): 8:43am On Oct 15, 2020
The Senior Pastor of Dunamis International Gospel Centre, Dr. Paul Enenche has reacted to the ongoing protest across the nation.

Nigeria has been boiling for days now after some youths took to the street to demand for end of police formation, Special Anti-Robbery Squad.

The protest has been remained despite the police authorities scraping the unit and announcing a new formation, IDOMAVOICE reports.

Reacting to the development, Dr. Enenche said only true change is the only way forward, not resistance by force.

His words, “The protest that you see going on is not just a reaction to what they are talking about, they are reacting to general wahala.

“There is a limit to which the human spirit and mind can cope with oppression. Our people are easygoing, excitable, we have a very long endurance capacity, hard to complain as we are wired to endure."

“All manner of terrible oppression, nepotistic oppression, egotistic oppression, where there is visible oppression from one segment of the country; tying to dominate by force and taking strategic positions everywhere.

“People have been keeping quiet for a VERY long time and they say we can be quiet any more. And the solution is not to resist them by force; the solution is to make the thing change urgently.”

Nairaland GeneralNigerians Roads Now Death Traps – Sen Moro Cries Out To Senate by owukpa(op): 9:13pm On Oct 14, 2020
The Senator representing Benue South Senatorial District, Comrade Abba Patrick Moro, has decried what he termed 'poor budgetary allocations to education, works, and other sectors' in the 2021 budget.

Recall that President Muhamamdu Buhari, had last Thursday, presented the 2021 Appropriation Bill before the joint session of the National Assembly. The proposed expenditure is put at N13.08 trillion, with a crude oil benchmark price of $40 per barrel.
Speaking on principles of the 2021 budget during Wednesday’s plenary, Senator Moro said the budgetary allocations to the education, security and works sectors were inadequate. He specifically decried the poor state of the Otukpo township road in Benue State, which he described as a 'death trap'.

The distinguished Senator said, “As properly christened, budget of economic recovery and resilience, I do see some flashes of good tidings but when you look at the details, we still have a lot of works to do.

“I want to say that we have a lot of works to do in education, because if we must attain good results and achieve the Sustainable Development Goal in education, we still have to look in the direction of meeting the UNESCO minimum standard in allocation of our budget to education.
“In 2021, we have N70 billion allocated to the Universal Basic Education Commission (UBEC), N545.10 billion for the Ministry of Education in the recurrent expenditure and N127 billion for capital expenditure.

“Although, there is an improvement in the allocation, if you put all the aggregates together, we still have not arrived at any reasonable level in the threshold recommended by UNESCO.

“If we agree that education represents a very vital instrument in our drives towards national development, if we must use education as a tool to lay a foundation for a strong democracy, for building an egalitarian prosperous nation, for building an indivisible and indissoluble sovereign state under God, then we don’t have a choice but to allocate more funds to education.

“We also have the highest number of cross-border, out-of-school students in the sub-region; that tells you a story about the need to revamp and reinforce our tertiary education system, which, at the moment, is facing a myriad of challenges. We need some more funding to shore up and salvage our education sector.

“In 2020, we talked about the need to allocate more funds to the Ministry of Works. If you fly our roads today, many of them are in states of serious disrepair.


“I want to draw your attention, Mr. President, to the serious situation in my constituency.
“The dualization of the Otukpo township road was flagged up in December 2018, but the road has been left in a serious state of comatose, and quite frankly, it is impassable and literally translating to a death trap. Just about 8 kilometres.

"The Taraku-Alaide road also presents a very pitiable sight, yet, these are roads whose contracts have already been awarded.
“The ministry of works that is saddled with the responsibility of building our roads is begging for serious funds to offset the debt owed contractors, to have enough funds to embark on new roads. This needs to be improved upon."

Christianity EtcHow Primate Ayodele’s Prophecy On Ondo Election Failed by owukpa(op): 4:38pm On Oct 11, 2020
The prediction of Primate Ayodele on the just-concluded governorship election in Ondo State has failed woefully.

Primate Ayodele of Leader of INRI Evangelical spiritual church had declared that the All Progressives Congress (APC) and its candidate, Rotimi Akeredolu, will lose the election, IDOMA VOICE reports.

‘‘Rotimi Akeredolu will not win Ondo election except through manipulations and technicality, He must not underrate anybody, the candidate of the PDP, Eyitayo Jegede and ZLP, Agboola Ajayi are out to beat him.

"He needs to be careful because he will be betrayed, there are moles in his camp. The people of Ondo state have rejected Akeredolu, no matter the crowd he has now, they won’t give him victory except he manipulate, the Lagos-based preacher had declared.

However, his prophecy hit the cross bar on Sunday after INEC declared Akeredolu winner of the poll.

Akeredolu polled 292,830 votes to defeat his close challengers, Eyitayo Jegede of PDP and Ajayi Agboola of ZLP to retain his seat for another four years.

The cleric is yet to react to the election result.

TV/MoviesBbnaija 2020: Tension, Suspense As Reality Show Ends Today, Fans Await Winner by owukpa(op): 11:22am On Sep 27, 2020
As Big Brother Naija reality TV show ends today, NIGERIA DEFENDER’s Treasure Orokpo reviews activities that rocked the show and other issues.

After 70 days of drama, packed with tension, fight, love, heartbreaks, scheming, sexual shenanigans and tears, Nigeria’s most controversial reality show, Big Brother Naija, BBNAIJA, would draw its curtain today, Sunday, September 27, 2020.

This is the fifth edition of the most-talked-about reality TV show in the country.

This year’s edition was sponsored by betting company, Betway, Innoson, Indomie, Gordon, Guinness and host of others.

The show premiered on 19 July 2020 on Africa Magic and the live feed on DStv channel 198 and GOtv channel 29. Ex-housemate Ebuka Obi-Uchendu from season one returned as host.

The winner is expected to walk home with ₦85 million grand prize today.

[url]WWW.NIGERIADEFENDER.COM[/url] observed that due to the COVID-19 pandemic, a virtual audition was held to select contestants for the show.

Video submissions were received from 20 May to 30 May 2020. During the submission, interested contestants submitted a two-minute video stating why they should appear on the show. At the end of the online audition, over 30,000 contestants showed their interest.

Of the 30,000 contestants that showed interest, 20 Housemates were selected.

Among those who made it to the house included:

Dorathy Bachor, 24, Olamilekan "Laycon" Agbeleshe, 26, Rebecca "Nengi" Hampson, 22, Emuobonuvie "Neo" Akpofure, 22, Victoria "Vee" Adeyele, 23, Ozoemena "Ozo" Chukwu , 27, Timmy Sinclair "Trikytee", 35, Nelson Enwerem "Prince", 24, Terseer Kiddwaya Waya , 27, Lucy Essien , 30, Ngozi "Erica" Nlewedim, 26 (Disqualified).

Other included, Ezekiel Bright "Brighto" Osemudiame, 29, Florence Wathoni Anyansi, 29, lani "Tolanibaj" Shobajo, 27, Praise Nelson, 28, Aisha Umaru "Kaisha" , 25, Eric Akhigbe, 24, Tochukwu Okechukwu Tochi, 28, oluwatife "Lilo" Aderogba , 23 and Kate "Ka3na" Jones , 26.

However, only five housemates made it to the final stage of the show.

They are: Laycon, Vee, Dorathy, Neo and Nengi.



SEX IN THE HOUSE

In the reality show, housemates are allowed to have sex, use F words, kiss or pre-intimacy provided it is consensual.

This gave Benue-born son of a billionaire, Kiddwaya the privilege to exploit disqualified housemate, Erica.

On several occasions, the duo were captured by cameras making moves that suggested they were having sex under the duvet. They have, however, denied ever having sex.

However, before her ouster from the show, Kiddwaya and Erica were seen kissing publicly on many occasions.

ERICA’S OUSTER

One of the favourites in the show, Erica was shown the exit door after breaking article 18 of the Big Brother rules on three occasions.

What broke the camel’s back was after one of the parties penultimate week when Erica threatened to kill fellow housemate, Laycon after the show.

She also poured water on the Head of House bed to prevent her deputy from sleeping in the bed, an action that earned her third strike and eventual disqualification.

With her disqualification, she would not be regarded as a former housemate. She also lost over N1.8m, consequently.




THE TOP FIVE




Save Laycon and Nengi, nobody gave the rest three finalists the chance in the final.

It came to everyone like a scene from a Nollywod epic movie, Dorathy, Neo and Vee are already in the final – the least expected.

TASK AND CHALLENGES

One of the most interesting parts of the reality show is the tasks and challenges Biggie gives to housemates.

If they are not cooking, they are trying to overcome obstacles or making presentations on the state of the nation.

BIG BROTHER

“This is Big Brother”, the moment this voice is heard, housemates and viewers shiver because no one expects what would happen next.

No doubt, housemates and viewers would miss the deep voice of Ejike Ebedilo, the Big Brother.

EBUKAMANIA

Fans of the reality show would sure miss the show host, Ebuka Obi-Uchendu and his jaw-dropping apparels.

One thing you can never fault Ebuka on is his fashion sense. Every Sunday, he graces the TV screen garbed in out-of-the-world attires.




SHOW SO LOVED, SO HATED

It is evident that BBNaija is the most discussed reality show in the country at the moment following the defunct of Gulder Ultimate Search and MTN Project Fame.

While many people believe that the show should be banned because it promotes sexual immoralities, others think the show must go on because it unites the nation and teaches moral lessons.

Since the show was premiered in July, it has remained the most discussed topic on social media, marketplaces, religious centre, recreational centres and institutions.

In fact, Leader of Adoration Ministry, Enugu, Fr Ejike Mbaka gave a prophecy about the show that came to pass barely 24 hours.




AND THE WINNER IS…

Today, a winner would be announced. The housemate with the highest votes would walk home with N85m grand prize.

Among those fans believe should win the crown are Laycon and Nengi.

Today, a winner would emerge and the show would draw its curtain till 2021.

Until then, BIG BROTHER is still watching.
