Rebecca Sharibu, mother of Leah Sharibu, one of the abducted 110 Dapchi school girls by Boko Haram in Yobe State, who is yet to be released has filed a suit of N500 million against the Nigerian government.

Also joined in the suit as plaintiffs against the Inspector General of Police and the Attorney General of the Federation over their failure to ensure the release of her daughter and for failure in their statutory duties, were Mr. Daniel David Kadzai and Lift-Up-Now Incorporation, a Non Governmental Organization in the United States of America.






The suit, dated September 19, 2018 with reference no FCH/L/cs/1528/18 was filed Leah Sharibu at the Federal High Court of Nigeria Lagos and a copy was made available to journalists on Tuesday in Jos, the Plateau State capital.

The plaintiffs are demanding for N500 million as a compensation for the indignities and human deprivations suffered by Leah since her abduction in February 2018.

Part of the prayers sought by the plaintiffs in the suit was an order of the Honourable court to direct and mandate the defendants to secure the immediate and unconditional release of Leah from the custody of her captors, as well as an order compelling the defendants to employ every means in securing her release.

The Plaintiffs also sought: “An order compelling the defendants to pay the plaintiff the sum of N500 million being compensation for the indignities and human deprivations suffered by the plaintiff as a result of the defendants’ dereliction of statutory duties in securing her release from her captors since the month of February, 2018 till date of this action.”

Meanwhile, in an affidavit supporting the application, the 3rd Plaintiff and Executive Director of the Lift-Up-Now Incorporation, Dr Adeniyi Ojutiku, solemnly swears that he has been informed by their lead counsel, Tayo Doughlas Esq, that it is necessary in the circumstance to seek and obtain leave of the Honourable court to issue the originating summons on the defendants.

Politics / 1.2m Osun Residents - What We Want From Our Next Governor by Techvillz(m): 4:59am On Sep 22, 2018
I expect the new governor to provide good environment for market men and women, small and medium-scale entrepreneurs and artisans. He should provide good road network to ease movement.

The incoming governor must be able to provide credit facility for artisans and traders to grow their business. He should get supervisors, who will monitor how they utilise the credit facilities.

I want our next governor to perform in the education sector. Our education standard in Osun State is poor. I want whoever emerges the next governor of this state to perform so well so that our state will be better than many others in Nigeria.

He should also invest in healthcare and agriculture; our healthcare system needs improvement and to be made more affordable and accessible.

Crime / Driver In Trouble As Prostitute Flees With Boss N5m Car by Techvillz(m): 3:48am On Sep 22, 2018
Driver in trouble as prostitute flees with boss N5m car - A 54-year-old driver of the chairman of an outsourcing firm located on Awolowo Road, Ikoyi, Lagos State, is in trouble after a sex worker allegedly fled with his boss’ Kia Sorento sport utility vehicle valued at N5.4m.

The prostitute, identified only as Nina, reportedly fled with the vehicle at a filling station in Ikoyi immediately the driver, Victor Dossa, came down to fuel it.


It was gathered that Dossa, who lives on Ikoyi Crescent, usually took the vehicle to his house after taking his boss home at the close of work.

It was Dossa who drove the vehicle to Obalende around 11pm to convey Nina to his house, perhaps to have fun together overnight.

Our correspondent learnt that as they were returning home, Nina drove the vehicle and suggested that they stopped at a nearby filling station to buy fuel.

While Dossa came down from the vehicle to monitor how the fuel being bought was being dispensed, Nina zoomed off. The case was said to have been reported to the police at the Onikan Police Division and the driver was arrested.

Dossa, who hails from Benin Republic, reportedly told the police that he first met Nina in the Obalende area a week before the incident.

Crime / Girls In Kenya Forced To Have Sex In Exchange For Sanitary Pads by Techvillz(m): 4:31pm On Sep 18, 2018
Girls in Kenya are forced to have sex with older men because it is the only way they can access sanitary products due to period poverty and the stigma surrounding menstruation. Research by Unicef has found that 65% of females in the Kibera slum, the largest urban slum in Africa, had traded sex for the sanitary products.



The charity also found that 54% of Kenyan girls said they had problems accessing feminine hygiene products and 22% of school girls are having to buy their own.



Andrew Trevett, Unicef Kenya chief of Water, Sanitation and Hygiene, told The Independent that girls are engaging in sex with boda boda drivers, or motorcyle taxi drivers, for two reasons. He said: ‘One obvious reason is poverty – girls and women don’t have the financial means to buy sanitary products.

Crime / Kids Of Saifura, Asks, ‘‘when Is Our Mom Coming Home by Techvillz(m): 8:54am On Sep 18, 2018
Saifura Hussaini Ahmed Khorsa, the worker of the International Committtee of the Red Cross , murdered by Boko Haram terrorists, was a nurse as well as the mother of two adorable kids.

The Red Cross bemoaning her killing by the blood thirsty Boko Haram on Monday wondered how the kids, now with their grandma would take news of her death.

“Saifura, 25, was a devoted mother and midwife. Those who knew her said she adored her two children, a two-year-old boy and a five-year-old girl”, said Eleojo Akpa, the ICRC Communications and Media Relations Officer.

“The children have not been able to comprehend their mother’s absence, as they frequently asked their grandmother if a passing plane was bringing their mother home.

“That grandmother must now find the words to tell the two children their mother will never return”, he said.

The killing of the 25 year-old woman was condemned by Red Cross (ICRC), which also appealed to the Boko Haram to immediately release a second ICRC midwife and a healthcare worker who were also abducted in March at Rann, Borno state.

Eloi Fillion, the Head, ICRC delegation in Abuja said: “We are devastated by the murder of our colleague, Saifura.

The police had said their investigations linked Saraki to the kingpin of the robbery operation.

The Senate President is the sole defendant in the criminal complaint initiated by the private lawyer.

The criminal complaint marked, CR/196/2018, was said to have been initiated by Ojaomo under Section 89(5) of the Administration of Criminal Justice Act, 2015.

It sought Saraki to be summoned for allegedly ignoring police invitation to answer to an allegation involving the investigation of the suspects of the Offa robbery.

The complaint stated that Saraki’s alleged refusal to honour the invitation amounted to obstructing a criminal investigation and disobeying a public officer carrying out a lawful responsibility.

This alleged conduct, it said, was an offence punishable under Section 136 and 149 of the Penal Code Law.

Crime / Kemi Adeosun May Get !4-year Jail Term Over Alleged Forged NYSC Result by Techvillz(m): 10:04pm On Sep 15, 2018
The offences include forgery, possession of fake document, uttering, giving false information and skipping the national service.

They carry jail terms of between one to 14 years, according to the Penal Code Law and the National Youth Service (NYSC) Act.

Mrs Adeosun’s certificate scandal was first blown by PREMIUM TIMES in a July 7 story which detailed how the minister skipped the mandatory national service and forged an exemption certificate to cover for it.

The year-long service, organised by the NYSC is compulsory for all Nigerians who graduate from a university or equivalent institution at the age of 30 or below.

In addition to being a requirement for government and private sector jobs in Nigeria, the enabling law prescribes punishment for anyone who absconds from the scheme or forges its certificates.

On Friday, the Presidency announced her resignation from office, and released the resignation letter in which Mrs Adeosun owned up to the crime. She said she was “helped” by some unnamed associates to get the exemption certificate.

“Her resignation should not be the end of it. She should be investigated and prosecuted for committing a number of crimes,”

Neymar converted a penalty kick for the second straight game, assisted on three goals and was given a yellow card for diving as Brazil routed El Salvador 5-0 on Tuesday night in an exhibition in front of just 28,511.

Nairaland / General / How To Check If Your Facebook Information Was Shared With Cambridge Analytica by Techvillz(m): 11:58pm On Apr 12, 2018
If you have just been following the news and not just some mediocre Facebook user, you'd be aware that over a month now, there's been this serious argument of a breach in privacy. There's been this huge question mark that just recently tainted Mark Zuckerberg and his multi-billion dollar company.



The big question is nothing other than the fact that whether Facebook is invading people's privacy, sells its users individual data and private information to the highest bidder and make a huge amount of dollars from it, which less regard to whether lives and properties are endangered in the process.



Facebook, however, responded promptly to address these concerns through various means such as press conferences and even appearing before the United States Senate committee to answer questions regarding the company's use and protection of user data. However, the multi-billion dollar company and the world's most popular social media network has already started sending out notifications to their users, informing them of this unpleasant development.



However, not everyone was invited to this party and not everyone has gotten the notification yet which usually appears on your newsfeed. Be that as it may, if by now you still haven’t seen the prompt in your News Feed, do not panic, there’s a simple way to check your account.



Facebook’s help center is a great place that is rarely used by many users, and now, it has a section that tells you whether you or a friend were affected because of this biggest data breaches of all time in the history of Facebook, it is available right here.



At this point, it'd be best if you'd take a minute to review the list apps you've allowed or given access to your Facebook account and remove the apps you no longer need or any unfamiliar app.

Computers / This Is How Microsoft Cortana Exposes Your PC by Techvillz(m): 10:55am On Mar 09, 2018
Microsoft Windows isn't the best secured OS for computers, but if you follow these guidelines by Microsoft, you'll stand a higher chance of having a secured Windows PC. However, recent developments that came to light shows that hackers have found a way to exploit Microsoft's AI-powered digital assistant found in Windows 10 to gain access to a particular Windows computer, even if it is locked.



This flaw was brought to light by an Israel-based researcher duo, Tal Be’ery and Amichai Shulman. They discovered that Microsoft Cortana besides being used to do several things like opening apps, doing simple math, suggest discount coupons, etc, can also provide hackers with a way to hack a Windows 10 PC, even if it’s locked.

Becuase Cortana uses voice commands, the hacker can issue voice commands to Cortana and redirect the computer to a non-HTTPS website. The task is accomplished by attaching a USB network adapter to the target PC which intercepts the traffic and redirects the computer to the attacker’s malicious site to download malware. And all this can be made possible because Cortana is an AI that was programmed to do just 2 things (which listen and execute commands), even when the computer is locked.
