Student Union executives and legislators at the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, have budgeted N1, 837, 550 to make official phone calls between August, 2015 and January, 2016.

In a copy of the Student Union budget made available to our correspondent and debated by members of the OAU Student Representative Council on Sunday evening, the leaders also had a separate budget for internet facilities and sending of bulk Short Message Service.

The sum, which did not also include the one for purchase of phones, was budgeted by the leadership of the Central Executive Council and Students’ Representative Council led by Mr. Omotayo Akande and Mr. Adebari Aare respectively.

Others are the clerk, deputy speaker, halls of residence executives, chairmen and secretary of transport, judicial, and budget and finance committees.

The student union leaders, who in totality budgeted N26, 090, 469 for their various needs, are expecting an income of about N15m.

A breakdown of the budget showed that the speaker, Mr. Adebari Aare, proposed to spend N232, 500 for official phone calls for 310 days, while the president of the union also proposed to make calls for 180 days with N108, 000.

Among other items that surfaced on the president’s budget were fuelling at the cost of N270,000; bus maintenance, N300, 000; ‘intervention’, N300, 000; and security vote, N300, 000.

Contained in the speaker’s budget is welfare costing N217, 000; long journey and short journey accommodation, N1, 250, 000; long and short journey trip, N500, 000 among others.

When contacted, the Chairman, Budget and Finance Committee, Mr. Abayomi Samuel, said the budget had not been approved.

Samuel, whose committee also budgeted N114, 000 for phone calls, added that some of the expenses had been reduced.

While speaking to our correspondent on the telephone and confirming the phone call expenses, Samuel said, “The budget has not been approved.”

However, our correspondent gathered that students of the university are divided over the budget.

One of them, Sammy, said, “How will they say they want to make phone calls with that kind of money when we are all complaining of poor toilet facilities and lack of food in our hostels. This is extreme wickedness.”

just called but your number is switched off

An investigation by SaharaReporters has revealed that several top civil servants and political figures in Delta State are involved in a fraudulent scheme by the state’s civil service commission. The fraud entails the sale of jobs in the civil service to desperate unemployed job seekers for as much as N1.5 million per slot.

Our investigators discovered the sale of jobs in the civil service began several weeks ago. Initially, jobs slots were being sold for between N700,000 and N900,000, but skyrocketed to N1.5 million as hordes of job seekers scrambled for the few, though undisclosed, number of available jobs.

As far back as 2013, Governor Emmanuel Uduaghan had given the civil service commission the go-ahead to recruit workers. The commission required applicants to purchase application forms at N2,000 each in the form of bank drafts. The rest of the employment process was then to be completed online via an Internet site created by the commission.

However, public outcry over the fraud-ridden process led Mr. Uduaghan to prohibit the sale of employment forms, to shut the website, and to refund fees to applicants who had paid. SaharaReporters learned that the commission never carried out the governor’s order to refund fees.

In March this year, the commission released the names of about 2,000 applicants shortlisted to be interviewed at the commission’s headquarters in Asaba, the state capital.

However, several sources in the state told SaharaReporters that, instead of issuing employment letters to successful shortlisted applicants, the commission began to sell job slots to the highest bidders, most of them people who were not shortlisted for the jobs.

“What is happening at the commission is nothing but corruption and fraud,” said a staff member of the commission, who said he was outraged by the sale of jobs. He added: “Imagine, those who were shortlisted are not been contacted. Rather, people who never applied or sat for interviews are being issued with employment letters at N700,000, N800,000 and N900,000 depending on their power of negotiation.”

Our sources said the fraud was being perpetrated with the knowledge of the board. An infuriated state employee said, “I can mention categorically the names of those involved in this racket. They include the commission’s chairman, Mr. Tetsola Emmanuel, Mrs. Tialobi Roseline, Tuedon Richard, Mr. Andrew Akanigha, Pastor Ifeanyi Agbeyeke—who areall members of the board of the commission. And then there are Mr. Jerry Agbaike, the Permanent Secretary, and other directors. They are all perpetrating this evil and denying Deltans their opportunity of gainful employment.”

Our sources disclosed that a senior administrative officer, Eboh Goddey Oghenero, acts as the front for the commission’s chairman, board members and directors in their corrupt scheme to sell employment opportunities.

A newly employed female employee told SaharaReporters that one of her friends bought a job slot for N1.5 million. “After paying the money, within three days an employment letter was issued to him and he was posted to a ministry,” she said.

One source at the commission revealed that at least 15 applicants paid money into Mr. Oghenero’s bank account in Fidelity Bank with account number 6050871390. The payments ranged from N750, 000 to N1.5 million, according to the finding by our investigative team.

Some outraged staff at the commission said the officials should be challenged to provide the original list of shortlisted job applicants as well as the list of those that have been issued letters of appointment. “You’ll see that the two lists are different,” one commission official said.

Contacted by one of our citizen reporters, the chairman of the commission, Mr. Tetsola Emmanuel, denied the sale of employment slots. But the correspondent reported that Mr. Emmanuel was visibly shaking and looked dazed. When asked follow-up questions, he was unable to offer any coherent answers.

An undercover reporter contacted Mr. Oghenero, posing as a prospective applicant. Mr. Oghenero then gave the reporter the same account details in Fidelity Bank, instructing the reporter to deposit the sum of N1.5 million and thereafter forward his personal and academic details to Mr. Oghenero’s mobile phone number. Mr. Oghenero also asked the undercover reporter to come in three days for his appointment letter.

“Just do all I have told you, I have given you the account details already,” the reporter quoted Mr. Oghenero as saying. According to the reporter, the rogue administrative officer also reassured him by showing a list of people who had paid and had received their appointment letters and posts. He said Mr. Oghenero added, “Don’t be scared that you didn’t purchase the form before or come for the interviews. Once you pay, you get your appointment letter.”

The undercover reporter said Mr. Oghenero identified himself as “a senior admin officer.” He added that the front in the employment scam asserted that the commission’s board chairman, directors, and board commissioners “are aware of the payments. We just front for them and after payment we get our own cut. In most cases I deal directly with my madam, Mrs. Tialobi Roseline, the first commissioner in the board who will perfect the appointment letters at the receipt of the cash. As I told you, it’s a secret deal which the commission is fully involved [in].”

Our sources at the commission as well as some applicants who were earlier shortlisted have urged Governor Uduaghan to set up a panel to investigate the fraud at the commission. “His Excellency, Dr. Uduaghan should probe what has been going on. And anybody found wanting should be made to face the music,” an angry commission staff told SaharaReporters.

There are schools and there are schools. That’s the feeling you’ll get after going through this list of arguably the most expensive schools in the city of Port Harcourt.

Compiling a list of this nature takes time, energy and research and even after all these have been put in, it is not out of place to find out that you missed a school hidden somewhere in town whose fees dwarf those on your list. So as you go through this list, bear in mind that the situation might have changed.

5. Bloombreed High School

Located at Boskel Road, off Port Harcourt/Aba Expressway in Rivers State, this school is not your average school or for an average income earner. The school which comprises of a Day-care, Nursery, Primary and Secondary section goes for as high as 1,500,000 Naira per year for its pupils/students. Very spacious, conducive learning environment highly equipped library Science, ICT, language, technical drawing and musical laboratories highly qualified and resourceful teachers Sports and recreational facilities—these are some of the facilities the school claims to have. Although the amount paid by the students in this school might seem outrageous, on this list, it is relatively modest.

4. Port Harcourt International Campus

Port Harcourt International Campus, Heliconia Park, Adjacent to NLNG, Eastern Bypass, Port Harcourt. This is a school set up to serve Nigerian and Expatriate families living within the Onne Camp. PHIC only provides Day-care, Nursery and Primary facilities. Located in an environment that accommodates a state of the art restaurant and bar which is also open to both resident and non-resident parents, Heliconia Park can also be tagged a tourist attraction. Its fees are paid in Euro and range from €10,500 to €11,000 which when converted to Naira ranges between 2,334,168 and 2,445,330 million Naira earning PHIC the number four spot.

3. Norwegian International School

Located at 11 Rotimi Amaechi Road, GRA Phase 3 Port Harcourt, it makes use of the English National Curriculum, together with the curricular standards of the Cambridge International Primary Programme (CIPP) and the International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE). A breakdown of their fees for new intakes shows that #250,000 is enrolment fee, #250,000 for development fee, 1,843,750 for tuition, an extra £600 and #20,000 for PTA—putting these together gives you a total of 2,547,647 million Naira, putting it on the number 3 spot.

2. Greenoak International School

Being a member of the Association of International Schools in Africa and having a hybrid curriculum, which is derived from the International Primary Curriculum (IPC), the British/American curricula and elements of the Nigerian curriculum is no mean feat. Greenoak International School is located at St. Michael's Crescent, Off Tombia Road Extension, GRA Phase 3, Port Harcourt. Exposing your children to the kind of facilities present at Greenoak International School comes at a price, and the manager of the school have pegged that price at 2,800,000 million Naira per year for new students while subsequent yearly fees fall to 1,900,000 million Naira for boarding and 1,500,000 for day. 2,800,000 million Naira is no small amount, but on this list, Greenoak could only afford to make second place.

1. Charles Dale Memorial International School

This is one school whose name has become a household name. Not because every household can afford to have a child there, but more like because the fees leave us amazed. Charles Dale Memorial International School is located at 12 Army Range Road off Eneka/Igwuruta Road Port Harcourt, Rivers State and can boast of one of the best facilities in Rivers State and Nigeria as a whole. Owned and managed by the wife of a former Governor of Rivers State, King Alfred Diete Spiff, one wouldn’t have expected something less. “With great facilities and quality education comes great fees”—Anonymous. As a strictly boarding school equipped with 24 hours surveillance and a school curriculum that is essentially an integration of the Nigerian and British National curricula, the fees for new students is put at 2,951,156 million Naira per year and drops to about 2,040,000 million Naira from the next year. This is a lot of money, and as such has earned Charles Dale the number one spot.

i AM NOR SURPRISED. JUST AS I WASN'T WHEN OBASANJO DEFECTED TO APC. TELE IKURU HAD ALWAYS BEEN ROMANCING WITH PDP COHORTS.

i spit on ur face for posting this as a negative propaganda

BADOO LOVE TURNED SOUR
•Lady who killed lover says ‘There was sex; no money, and I became angry’

THOUGH many people have used the social network to connect positively, the story of Cynthia Osokogwu who was killed in Lagos State by her Facebook friend in July 2012 sent shivers down the spine of everyone who heard the sad story.

But it seems as if some users of social networks are yet to grasp the lessons of their usage, as another young man recently fell victim when a lady he connected with on Badoo network murdered him in cold blood over what she tagged “unfulfilled promises.”

The life of a young man, Charles Bankole Orisanya from Akoko in Ondo State, who was working with Halliburton in Rivers State ended sadly and brutally on September 19, 2014 when his 26-year-old girlfriend, Loretta Odikagbo, snuffed life out of him. She was however apprehended almost three months after, precisely December 9, 2014 after a painstaking investigation by the Homicide Section of the Rivers State Police Command.

Senior police officers and detectives who investigated the case told Crime Reports that the method of killing was an uncommon one in Nigeria, as Miss Odikagbo, popularly called Loretta, and two accomplices allegedly tapered late Orisanya’s mouth, hands and legs before covering his head with a polythene bag. Loretta was said to have sat on the deceased’s head while one of the accomplices, Ime Francis Moses Jnr., held his neck until he became lifeless.

According to information gathered by Crime Reports, Loretta Odikagbo, a student of Rivers State Polytechnic, Bori, met Orisanya on Badoo network and they started dating online. They connected physically and the relationship blossomed over the next months. Along the line, Loretta fell out of love with her lover. And the reason she gave was that her lover boy was not fulfilling his promises. The deceased, who was in his early 30s, was a civil engineer and a staff of Halliburton Company at Trans-Amadi area of Port Harcourt, it was learnt.

On September 19, 2014, the lover invited the lady to his house but she did not come alone. Crime Reports learnt that she hired two men to go with her and hid them under the staircase of the lover’s residence.

In order not to arouse any suspicion, Loretta released herself totally to her lover and engaged in a passionate love making session with him. After the man climaxed, he rolled off and got ready for sleep. The lady was said to have quietly opened the door to let the two accomplices in. Pointing a gun-like object at Bankole, Loretta and the boys used a rope and masking tape to tie his hands and legs.

Satisfied that she had dealt with her lover, Loretta left for an Automated Teller Machine to collect all the cash in Bankole’s account. Of course, she had earlier collected the secret pin from him under duress. Not done, the lady was said to have returned and had gone to her lover’s kitchen to pick a polythene bag to cover his head after taping his mouth, and sat on his head. One of the accomplices, Moses, held the man’s neck until he gave up the ghost. The two men also took their victim’s shirts, shoes and other personal items while Loretta went for his LG phone and laptop.

When the case was reported at a police station, it was learnt that there was no single clue that could be used to trail the killers. But when the case was transferred to Department of Criminal Investigation, Rivers State Police Command, the crack detectives investigating the case were able to resolve the mystery as they worked on an item picked from the scene crime. This eventually led to Loretta’s arrest and, subsequently, Moses’, while the third suspect is still at large.

In an interview with Loretta, she claimed that she decided to deal with late Orisanya because he was not fulfilling all his promises to her. Her narration went thus: “I am from Rumuomasi, Obio/Akpor Local Government area of Rivers State. I was born on May 2, 1988. I hold a Diploma in Mass Communication and was to resume for my HND in January 2015 but I was arrested in December 2014.

“I asked a friend, Moses to help harass a man who was my boyfriend but is now deceased. I met Bankole (Orisanya) through a social network called Badoo in January 2014 and we got intimate online since he was at the rig offshore when we met. He was there for two months and we became internet lovers. We were chatting and exchanging pictures. When he came back, he invited me over and we started dating.

“The basis of it all was money. When I met him, it was all promises upon promises. Along the line, the sex was going on and the money was not coming. He would give me N10,000, N15,000 but that was not what I expected from him. Also when we first met, to me, he was a single man but along the line, I discovered he was married.

“We talked about it but he didn’t want the affair to end. He said that it would not be a problem and he could handle it. But I only continued with him because I was waiting for the promises to be fulfilled. I was not interested in marriage to him. We had a bit of misunderstanding concerning money and our relationship. I asked my friend who is also my in-law to help me so that I could get the money forcefully from Bankole.

“Along the line, I could not control my anger so I asked my in-law to come help harass him to get what I could get from him and move on with my life.

“On a particular night, he called me and I went to his place with my in-law and one other guy. I felt it was an opportunity to deal with him. We went to his residence and I managed to sneak the two men into the compound. I hid them under the stairs. I went in to Bankole and we made love. After we were done, I left him in the bedroom and went to the kitchen as if I wanted to drink water, and let the guys in. I made it look like both of us were being robbed. We met Bankole in the sitting room; probably trying to know what kept me away for long.

“There was no light. I didn’t see any gun. My in-law was holding a tape while the other guy held a torch and something that looked like a gun. Bankole and I went on our knees and the guys were threatening us, asking for money. My lover told them that he had money in his account so he gave them his ATM card pin number.

“My-in law tied his hands with the tape and second guy acted like I had to be the one to follow him to the ATM. It was raining heavily that night. It was almost midnight. We left for the ATM and I withdrew a little over N120,000 and paid the guy off. I gave him about N30,000 or thereabouts. My in-law came to meet me at the ATM and I also gave him almost N50,000.

“I took Bankole’s LG phone while his laptop was brought to me the following day by my in-law. I can’t remember what the other guy took from Bankole’s house. I didn’t know anything about the polythene that was used to cover his head.”

Loretta said she did not bother to go back to Orisanya’s house so did not know that he died. “I didn’t have the intention of dating him anymore; I just wanted to move on. I only knew about Bankole’s death when I was arrested.”

Moses (30), who said he hails from Akwa Ibom State, however gave a contrary narration to Loretta’s. According to him, “Loretta called me and said that she and her boyfriend were having some issues. She said he was owing her some money and had refused to ‘settle’ her. She said she would call me to go and harass him promising to notify me whenever he called her. Before then she gave me some money to buy a torchlight, which I did.

“On a day, she called me and came to meet me. We went to Rumuomasi to pick another guy called Winkoro. He refused being part of the plan and we left him. As we walked, we saw a boy whom I knew but don’t know his name. I introduced him to her and she explained her intention to him and he joined us.

“She took us to the man’s house and kept us under the staircase. Earlier, she gave the other guy a rope and masking tape and I was with a torch light and an iron object that looked like a gun. After a while, she called us in and we got into the kitchen. Minutes later, according to her instruction, we got into the room where she was with her boyfriend.

“I pointed the torch at the man and said: “Na you dey owe our sister and you no wan pay”. The lover boy pleaded that he was going to pay; that we should calm down. The guy with us tied the man’s legs with a rope and tapered his hands. Loretta stood up and slapped the man repeatedly. After that she asked the man of money but he said he had no money at home. He pointed at his ATM cards and gave Loretta the pin number.

“She and the other guy left for the ATM and I stayed with our victim. I later called her to confirm if the pin was right and she said yes. I asked if I should start coming but she asked me to wait at the man’s house. Before she left, she and the other guy packed some items like laptop, phone. When she came back, she went to the man’s room.

“She came out, went to the kitchen, brought a polythene bag and said that if I did not assist her in killing the man, if the bubble burst, I would be the first person she would mention. She covered the man’s head with the polythene bag and sat on his head while I assisted her in holding the man’s neck until he became motionless.

“Loretta gave me N28,000. I was arrested on December 10, 2014. She was the one who led the police to me. I took three shirts and a sandal from the man’s house. Taking the man’s life was not in the initial plan.”

On the relationship between them, Moses said that he and Loretta used to drink alcohol together while she was also a chain smoker. Loretta confirmed this and added that she used to smoke marijuana.

Moses also revealed that a case akin to the current one occurred three years ago. “Loretta had a man she was going out with. They had some problems and because Loretta had the man’s spare key, she gave it to me and asked me to go and pack the man’s things and her own too, so that it would look like robbery. The man got her arrested and I was also picked. We returned the things to the man,” Moses disclosed. Again, Loretta confirmed this and said that the man was a staff of Shell.

When contacted, the Police Public Relations Officer in Rivers State, DSP Ahmad Muhammad, confirmed the story, saying that the case was still under investigation at the Department of Criminal Investigation.

Police commissioner locks up neighbour for breeding dogs
A Commissioner of Police (CP) in Charge of Police Pensions Office at the Force Headquarters, Abuja, in an apparent show of power, has apprehended his neighbour and locked him up for allegedly breeding dogs and other animals.

The CP, who is resident at Hiltop Estate, Maraba, it was learnt, had ordered the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) to arrest his neighbour, one Mr Chukwujindu Aligbe, for rearing different breeds of dogs.

The DPO was said to have obtained an instant court order to lock the 67-year-old Aligbe in Keffi Prisons for two days, until he was reportedly rescued by his church members.

In the First Information (FIR) obtained from Maraba Area Court dated August 28, 2014, the incident was recorded as “Criminal conspiracy, disturbance of public peace and making atmosphere noisous to health”.

The FIR indicated that Aligbe, who is a retired civil servant and an elder in the Foursquare Gospel Mission, Asokoro, was accused by the CP of breeding about 40 dogs, monkeys and other wild animals.

The FIR read: “On August 27, 2014, at about 7.30am, the Commissioner of Police in Charge of Police Pensions Office FHQ Abuja, a resident at Hill Top Estate Mararaba, reported to the DPO Mararaba ‘A’ Division that for over four years now, that you, Chukwujindu Aligbe of the same address breading almost 40 dogs, monkeys and other dangerous and wild animals in your dwelling of residential house for commercial purposes.

“And being his neighbour at the above address, conspired with your wife, name not known, and the rest members of your family, to keep these animals in such a way that they constantly bark, make all sorts of noise and pass faeces within your premises, which only demarcated from his own by only dwarf wall, which is quit disturbing and noxious to his health and that of his family members of which all efforts to advise you to relocate the dogs proved abortive”.

“You thereby committed offences contrary to section 97,113 and 192 respectively of the Penal Code law as suggested”, the FIR stated.

However, speaking on the matter, the Resident Pastor, Foursquare Gospel Church, Asokoro, Rev. Julius Msheliza, said that,’’The accused is a member and an elder in my church, which makes me interested in the case since I have to look after the flock God has placed under my care.

“The case is still in court. We, therefore, wait to see what the final outcome will be. The final outcome will decide whether we will be satisfied or not.

So, at this moment, we are still waiting what the conclusion will be.

“I was disappointed the way he was arrested because I was in court when the whole issue started. He was accused of keeping dogs in his house and I don’t know when keeping has become a criminal case, and within 15 minutes, he was thrown into Keffi Prison. To me that is not right”.

“My expectation is that the rule of law should prevail and the right thing should be done.

“If a member of my congregation is found liable, then let the court take its full course but if the person is falsely or wrongfully accused, the accuser should be held accountable or reprimanded for accusing an innocent person”, he stated.

Enugu State Governor, Sullivan Chime’s ostrich and monkey turned violent and attacked a police officer attached to the Government House, Enugu while the monkey assaulted a civilian at the Governor’s lodge recently.

The medical director of the Government House Medical Centre, who is also the personal physician to the Governor, Dr. Anthony Ogbonna made this revelation during the hearing at the panel investigating the allegations against the deputy governor, Mr. Sunday Onyebuchi, who is facing impeachment.

Dr. Ogbonna confirmed that the ostrich injured the police man whose name and rank he said he could not remember except he saw his records. He said the ostrich came from the Governor’s lodge and attacked the police officer who was later treated at the Government House medical Clinic.

But when told by Onyebuchi’s lawyer, Chief Chris Aghanwa that the ostrich inflicted serious head injury on the police officer, Dr. Ogbonna retorted: “There was a laceration that we stitched. It was not a head injury.”

Speaking about one of the staffers, Ebuka Abu, who was reportedly bitten by the Governor’s monkey that suddenly became violent, the doctor confirmed the incident, saying: “I am aware that somebody was attacked by a monkey,” although he added that he was unaware of the victim’s name. He emphasized that both the monkey and ostrich came from “the Governor’s compound” before they attacked their targets.

Asked whether it was right to keep monkeys as pet considering that other medical doctors have reeled out some of the causes of the dreaded Ebola disease, and if indeed, monkey is one of the causes, the medical director replied: “Yes. It is a domesticated monkey.” He quickly added that the wild monkeys also cause the Ebola disease. “Yes; the wild ones. After the incident of biting by the monkey, the monkey was removed,” he explained.

He said after the incident, he did not report it to the Enugu State House of Assembly. “No, I did not,” he said.

Dr. Ogbonna, who said he was attached to the clinic since 1994 also confirmed that aside the monkey and ostriches, there were other creatures such as antelopes, horses, cows, goats owned by the governor within the Government House premises.

According to him, there is a veterinary doctor attached to the Government House whose duty is to take care of the animals.
