BusinessVitafoam Unveils Music Pillows, Foam That Regulate Blood Circulation by Phillfree(op): 7:47pm On Aug 15, 2013
VITAFOAM has unveiled music pillows, latex pillows, spring mattress and memory/visco elastic foam that regulates blood circulation.
In a parley with newsmen, Managing Director, Vitafoam Nigeria Plc, Mr Joel Ajiga, said the music pillow was made from high quality user friendly fibre and could be connected to phones, iPods and any other musical gadgets,
adding: “It lures you into sleep in a short time with high resolution music gadget and the memory/visco elastic foam regulates blood circulation.
“The good thing about the music pillow is that it gives you room to listen to your choice of music without disturbing anybody else and it is also health friendly because the phone or Ipad is not directly on your head or ear.”
According to him, the latex pillow provides soft feel comfort and air flow through the air vents provides additional ventilation which is therapeutic to sleeping disorders and also highly durable.
He said the memory/visco elastic foam contours round the body and provides adequate support to all parts of the body, reduces the pressure points of the body thereby
relieving joint pains, usually high weight and density benefits, regulates blood circulation, superior thermal comfort, open all releases body heat and temperature and also reduce motion transfer between two people.
“In response to global emphasis on the need to conform to the requirements and protocols for environmental protection, Vitafoam has decided to embrace the project of spring mattress as the product that represents the change to environmentally friendly products ensuring sleeping comfort” he said.
BusinessNew Naira Notes By September by Phillfree(op): 8:50pm On Aug 14, 2013
The Central Bank of Nigeria will take delivery of new naira notes before the end of September for circulation, the Deputy Director, Operations, Dr Tunde Lemo, has said.
Lemo stated this on Wednesday in Abuja.
The apex bank had earlier said that new naira notes would be in circulation by June, and that the smaller denomination notes (N5, N10, N20, and N50) would be reprinted on paper.
“We are going to take delivery of the new notes from this month of August. We will take delivery of the new notes before the end of September.
“`The public will get a large quantity of the new notes to replace the old and mutilated notes, particularly the higher denomination notes in the first instance, then later the lower denominations,’’ he said.
On the scarcity of the lower denomination notes, Lemo blamed commercial banks for what he called “poor circulation’’.
“For the lower denomination; well, I think the banks are really the ones that are really not allowing the lower denomination in circulation, largely, because of the carrying value.
“Most people don’t require small denomination. But for buying things in the market, if you look at the veracity, you find out that the N50 circulate more than the smaller ones,’’ he said.
Meanwhile, Lemo has urged law enforcement agencies to arrest all illegal hawkers of new naira notes.
He also called on commercial banks to keep watchful eyes on their staff to avoid being used as conduit for illegal transfer of new notes to unauthorised hands.
Lemo said this should be done to ensure effective protection of the currency from abuse.
“We have done all we can do in the sense that we have criminalised this in the 2007 Act
“It is clear that if you hawk notes, if you abuse the currency, it is a criminal offence and it is punishable.
“We expect law enforcement agencies to do the arrest. We don’t have power to arrest. We know it is going on,’’ he said.
Lemo said commercial banks should “dispense and pay their customers with new notes’’.
He said the apex bank had carried out sensitisation campaigns to inform the public and warn them about the dangers of patronising hawkers.
“I think that is the limit the central bank can go,’’ the deputy governor said.
Naira notes are sold at Dei Dei along Kubwa Express Road,
Abuja, as well as other locations across the country. (NAN)

Nairaland General15 Children Crushed To Death by Phillfree(op): 3:31am On Aug 04, 2013
Fifteen children aged between 12 and 16 years were yesterday crushed to death in Barkin-Ladi, Plateau State, by a commercial vehicle conveying maize to a nearby market. Nine others were injured and have been
hospitalized.
The children who were said to be members of the Boys and Girls Brigade of about three churches in the local government headquarters were on an early morning keep-fit exercise when the incident occurred.
It was gathered that the youths from three churches usually gather for the exercise by jogging to and fro nearby villages but it was an unlucky day as a vehicle carrying maize from Bokkos lost control and ran into the
children numbering about 40 killing the 15 instantly. An eye witness told Sunday Vanguard that parents whose children were in the team rushed to the scene to ascertain the well-being of their children. This created its own commotion. The bodies of the deceased and the injured were later taken to a nearby health centre where the injured were given first aid treatment before they
were transferred to the Plateau Specialist Hospital in Jos.
Police Public Relations Officer in the state, DSP, Felicia Anslem confirmed the incident, adding that investigations had commenced and efforts were on to track down the fleeing driver of the vehicle.

PoliticsBlood, Tears In Otukpo As Mark's Men 'n Villagers Go To War by Phillfree(op): 2:06am On Jul 28, 2013
Abuja Bureau Chief Senate President David Mark’s quest for a vast land where he is said to be planning a university in his native Otukpo, Benue
State, has pitted him against peasant farmers in Asa III, who claim that the retired military officer-turned- politician wants to deprive them of their farm land, their only means of livelihood.
The move was said to have started in the first quarter of the year when a delegation of the nation’s number three citizen, led by one Chief Obogo Alapa, met some Asa III elders to inform them of the proposed university which, it stressed, would bring
development to the area.
It was learnt that the villagers told the delegation that they welcomed the development, but that they needed to know the exact size of land and in which area of the village before they could
give their terms.
Consequently, it was agreed that the delegation should take representatives of the villagers to the area and show them the location and size.
This was later undertaken, with a bulldozer setting out what represented the area of interest for the proposed institution. The said land, according Mr. Sam Obochi, measures about “4 x 4” km, covering the farmlands of many families. The area demarcated alegedly extended from Asa III to their boundary with Akpegede village on the one hand, and their boundary with Otobi on the other.
However, trouble started when the villagers discovered that bulldozers were sent in to clear the vast farmland without any further discussions with them. “The Alapa delegation that went to show the villagers the area to be taken by the university project did not return to give the villagers any feedback”, the villagers claimed.
Some of the villagers went to their farms and asked the bulldozer operators to stop work on the grounds that the said land belonged to their families and that at no time did they hand over the land to anybody for any project.
As learnt, the workers ignored the villagers which led to protests during which the villagers blocked the main road that passes through Asa III in their efforts to attract public attention to their plight.

ATTACKS
If the villagers expected any form of sympathy, what they allegedly got was a rude shock as, rather than coming for negotiations, those taking their land were said to have mobilized persons from Igbanomaje, Otukpo, to attack them. The assailants were said to have invaded Asa III and shot six of the villagers, burnt down houses of those considered as the
arrowheads of the alleged land-grab opposition, and looted every store in sight.
The villagers ran into the bush and kept away from their homes for four days. Those who ventured into the village were said to have been arrested by gun- wielding vigilante and policemen brought in from Otukpo. 18 persons were allegedly arrested including three minors. 15 were detained in Makurdi Police
Station while the minors were detained in the Juvenile Detention Center, Gboko.
As learnt, six men were shot by the attackers and had to be rushed to the General Hospital Otukpo. But even at the hospital, the police went after them and attempted to arrest them. It took the
resistance of the hospital staff to stop further action against the villagers who then sneaked out of the hospital that night to secret locations outside Otukpo to seek medical help.
Two weeks after the attack, leaders of the village, it was learnt, sent an emissary to Alapa, the alleged leader of Mark’s representatives, to express their disappointment over the attack on Asa III.
A peace meeting was reportedly held with the Alapa group on June 21. The Chairman of Otukpo Local Government Council, Dr. Innocent Onuh, was one of the leaders that attended the meeting. That meeting was held at the palace of the Ad’ Alekwu of Asa III, Mr. Inalegwu Onche, where the villagers claimed to
have told Mark’s representatives that due process should be followed if the Senate President wanted to acquire land for his university project.

KILLING
The following day, the villagers said policemen from Otukpo Divisional Police Headquarters invaded the village at about 5.30 am to arrest some youths.
Those who noticed the arrival of the policemen were said to have alerted others by phone. Those who could not get the information on time were arrested while those who escaped arrest had their Okadas (motorcycles) taken away. The villagers then
mobilized and insisted that every villager must be taken to the police station. Overwhelmed, Sunday Vanguard was told, the police started firing into the air to disperse the crowd. In the process, one of the police constables was shot due to accidental discharge by a fellow police man.
This was said to have infuriated the policemen the more as they insisted on arresting as many of the villagers as they could. But the policeman behind the shooting allegedly reported himself to the police authorities in Otukpo. He was said to have declared
that he could not bring himself to accuse the villagers of a crime they did not commit.
The policeman was arrested and detained, then transferred to the Benue State Police Command headquarters in Makurdi where he was detained, pending his orderly room trial. In spite of truth
about who shot the deceased policeman, the team that left the village only reinforced with more officers, soldiers and armed vigilante, and stormed the village later that day. The raid was unprecedented, according to the villagers, as they could not resist the large armed team that stormed their little village. Several villagers were arrested with others running into the forests. At the end of the day, many houses were allegedly burnt down and
shops looted, creating a scenario of a village at war.

STRANGERS
After the raid, Mr. Obochi, a senior civil servant in Makurdi, but whose family land is part of the parcel in dispute, decided to meet the Senate President’s representatives in Otukpo. He was arrested and detained for one week, in Makurdi, along with those
earlier arrested.
Obochi told Sunday Vanguard, in an interview in Makurdi, that what was happening in Asa III since the beginning of the year was a clear case of intimidation of the peasant farmers.
He said he was arrested in the process of trying to resolve the issue between the Mark group and his brothers and sisters in his village. According to him, “my offence was that I bailed those who were arrested by a combined team of policemen, soldiers and vigilante”.
Narrating the situation, Obochi said, “The Mark group claims that the villagers are strangers and as such will not receive any compensation for the land and their crops. Rather, they said that compensation will be paid to Otukpo indigenous people. Their
informants misled them. They told them that those farming on the land in question are ‘Aalala’”.
Those referred to as ‘Aalala’ are those from south of Idomaland, especially Ogbadibo and Okpokwu Local Government Areas.
Obochi insisted that those who own the land and even currently own farms on the land in question are aboriginal Otukpo people.
He added that most of the houses destroyed and the looted shops belonged to indigenes of Asa III and not strangers which made it difficult for any reasonable member of the society to comprehend.
Obochi said the villagers had no intention of fighting Mark but that they won’t allow anyone to forcefully take away the land which they inherited from their ancestors.

EFFORT TO SEE MARK
Asked if the aggrieved villagers made any effort to meet the Senate President in person, he said, “I met Adakole Elijah ( an aide of the Senate President) and requested to see Sen. Mark. He promised to facilitate my meeting him. That was before the
arrest and that was the last time I saw the man. I also had a chance meeting with one Onyilokwu Ekwo (said to be very close to the Senate President) and I told him that we don’t want bloodshed in our village and that he should arrange a meeting for us to meet Mark. There was no response and I cannot just walk to Senator David Mark’s house”.

DEMAND
According to Obochi, the demand of the owners of the farm land is, “the Senate President should follow due process by coming to the owners of the land. If a dirty man has something which you need, the person cannot look dirty to you.
“He should come to us and make a request, then we will decide whether to give him the land or not; or give him part of the land; but certainly not the whole land as demarcated. We don’t have any personal problem with Mark He chose the wrong process.
Those he is working with are not representatives of the farmers who own the land. He should stop further work on the land in question until the issue is resolved”.
Neither the Senate President’s media team nor his family members responded to inquiries by Sunday Vanguard, in spite of repeated calls and text messages.

CrimeNSCDC Smashes Illegal Baby Factory, Arrests Doctor, Nurse by Phillfree(op): 7:13am On Jul 12, 2013
OPERATIVES of the Nigeria Security and Civil
Defence Corps, NSCDC, in Enugu State, yesterday, raided a
clinic where babies from unwanted pregnancies are sold.
Proprietor of the clinic, Dr Ben Agbo, and a nurse working with
him, have been arrested while a three-day old baby about to be
delivered to a buyer was recovered from them.
The illegal baby home identified as ‘Moonlight Maternity home’ is
located at Agbani Road by Abagana street in Coal Camp area of
Enugu capital city. The 74-year old proprietor of the clinic said
he had been operating the clinic since the past nine years
admitting that he had been selling babies to those in need under a
humanitarian service of the clinic.
The State NSCDC Commander, Nathaniel Ubong, while
parading the suspects, said they were arrested following a tedious
surveillance mounted by his men around the maternity home
after a tip off by a patriotic citizen on the illicit activities going on
at the maternity home.
He explained that they were disturbed because the said ‘Moonlight
maternity home’ was not on the list of hospitals submitted to his
unit by Ministry of Gender Affairs as those accredited for child
fostering in the state. He said his men recovered some vital
documents relating to past sales of babies by the clinic under the
guise of child fostering which the doctor had no authority to
conduct.
Speaking with newsmen, Dr Agbo said though he was not
accredited to conduct child fostering, he was using his clinic to
render humanitarian services to couples,who were finding it hard
to produce their own babies after many years of marriage.
Asked to explain the whereabouts of the mother of the baby found
in the home, he said she went away to seek for assistance and was
yet to return.

A 30-year-old butcher was, Tuesday, butchered in Gangare area of the Plateau State capital by unknown assailants.

It was learnt that the attackers fled as his wife shouted for help.
They allegedly left a knife driven into the neck of the deceased.
The wife was reported to have repeatedly screamed “they hav killed my husband.”
He subsequently staggered outside where he eventually died, according to an eyewitness.
Confirming the arrest of a suspect police spokesperson, Deputy Superintendent Felicia Anslem said the command would get to the
root of the matter.
