tatiana009: I can't speak for everyone but if you are a Christian then you know it is wrong no matter how you try to rationalise it to yourself. The Bible is very clear that sex before marriage is a sin and even if everyone is doing it or it is the "modern", God still expects us as his children to aim do the right thing. It is ok to say one is weak in that area and pray for God to help but you have to first be honest with yourself by admitting that everytime you have sex outside marriage you are committing a sin against God.
God bless you

SportsRe: Is Mikel Good For African Footballer Of The Year Award? by wandevincent(m): 3:12pm On Sep 26, 2013
Owo Lee: After waiting for seven years, Super Eagles and Chelsea FC of England midfielder, John Obi Mikel, finally scored his first English Premier League goal against Fulham on Saturday, making him a strong contender for the Glo/CAF African Footballer Of The Year Award billed for Lagos next year.
Soccer loving Nigerians celebrated the goal with frenzy, with some calling jokingly on the Federal Government of Nigeria to declare seven days holiday to mark the end of Mikel’s goal drought. It may sound amazing but that was the wish of Nigerian football fans.
Football pundits in Nigeria are of the view that Mikel should be rewarded with the 2013 edition of the Glo/CAF African Footballer of The Year Award by the Confederation of African Football, CAF, judging by his recent performances. With a 2013 African Cup of Nations medal, the UEFA Champions League and EUROPA League medals to his credit, some believe that it is time Mikel was crowned the best player in Africa.
Since Stephen Keshi was named as coach of the Super Eagles, Mikel has been a regular, with his sterling performance on the field as an added advantage for him if CAF wants to look in that direction in giving him the award. Mikel’s five star performances at the Nations Cup was pivotal to ending Nigeria’s 19 years wait before winning the AFCON tourney in South Africa early in the year.
The Super Eagles had an abysmal performance at the 2013 Confederations Cup held in Brazil but Mikel, the former Lyn Oslo of Norway player, was on the scorer’s sheet in the 6-1 bashing of little known Tahiti.
There are three other players standing in Mikel’s way for the award and they are his compatriots, Emmanuel Emenike of Fenerbahce of Turkey, Victor Moses, who is on loan to Liverpool from Chelsea and Cote d’Ivoire’s Yaya Toure.
Yaya’s country were strong favourites to defeat Nigeria and go ahead to lift the Nations Cup this year, but Mikel’s input in the semifinal clash went a long way in ensuring that Nigeria did not only deny Cote d’Ivoire a final berth but went ahead to lift the trophy.
Cote d’Ivoire failed to live up to their favourites’ tag at the Nations Cup but Yaya’s contribution to his club, Manchester City, cannot be quantified. The edge Yaya has over Mikel is his goal scoring prowess. In the 2012/13 season Yaya scored a total of six goals as against Mikel’s zero.
Emenike on his part would be drawing his strength from his performance at the 2013 Nations Cup, where he won the Highest Goal Scorer Award, but his achievement at his former club, Spartak Moscow, cannot fetch him the needed points to deny Mikel of the award.
While Moses was not a regular for Chelsea last season, he played a formidable role in Nigeria’s emergence as the reigning African champions.
Since Mikel posted an outstanding showing to ensure Toure’s team were ousted from the Nations Cup, it makes it a lot easier for the Nigerian to grab the CAF award.

help me ask o
Romance10 Reasons Why Sex Should Wait Untill Marriage by wandevincent(op): 12:04pm On Sep 26, 2013
1. Sex is a powerful force that can destroy if
not used properly. Like atomic power, sex is
the most powerful creative force given to
man. When atomic power is used correctly it
can create boundless energy; when it is used
in the wrong way it destroys life. Sex is the
same kind of powerful force. Sex is a gift
from God to give us the greatest pleasure, to
help in creating a deep companionship with
one's spouse and for procreation of the next
generation. But if you play with this powerful
force outside the bounds of marriage, it
destroys you and those close to you.
2. Sexual activity for young people arrests their
psychological, social and academic
development. Studies show that when
young people engage in premarital sex, their
academic performance declines and their
social relationships with family and friends
deteriorate. This is because adolescents are
too immature to deal with the explosive sex
drive and it tends to dominate their life.
3. The majority of women cannot enjoy sex
outside of the bonds of marriage. The
development of a fulfilling sex life needs the
security and peace of the marriage bond.
Premarital sex usually takes place sneaking
around in hidden places dealing with the
fear of being caught, the fear of pregnancy
and feelings of guilt. All these (worrisome)
factors undermine pleasure in premarital
sex, most especially for women.
4. Virginity is to be given to the most important
person in your life, the person you
committed yourself to stay with forever in
marriage. Your virginity is the most precious
thing you have to give to your spouse. Once
you lose it, nothing in the world can bring it
back. Don't lose something so precious in a
thoughtless way.
5. Those who engage in premarital sex run a
high risk of contracting one of the many
venereal diseases rampant today, as well as
losing their fertility. Not just AIDS, but other
common disfiguring diseases like herpes
have no cure.
6. Some venereal diseases have no symptoms
and many couples discover many years later
that they became infertile because of these
diseases. Infertility experts estimate that
80% of today's infertility is due to venereal
diseases contracted before they married.
7. The best and only method that guarantees
100% against AIDS and other sexually
transmitted diseases is to wait for marriage
to have sex and maintain fidelity in your
marriage.
8. Premarital sex breaks the 10
Commandments given by God. The 10
Commandments are given to man by God to
make man happy. They are not outdated
and they are not restrictive. If we follow
these laws, we can create happy and
prosperous lives. If we don't follow them, we
will pay a heavy price in divorce, disease,
abortions, illegitimate children and
loneliness. Modern men make a big mistake
when they think that they can break these
eternal laws and not suffer consequences.
9. Premarital sex runs the risk of conceiving
illegitimate children. Numerous scientific
studies show that the children of single
mothers suffer psychologically and are less
successful socially and academically than
children from intact families. Above all,
children need both their father and their
mother. It is wrong to risk having children
who will never have their father's love,
protection and care.
10. If you date and you don't have sex, you can
forget about that relationship when you stop
dating. But if you have sex with those you
date and then break up, the nature of sexual
involvement creates strong, often
unpleasant memories for your whole life.
Every relationship you break up where you
had intimate relations is like a mini-divorce.
The psychological difficulties of these mini-
divorces does damage to your character.
Later, when you are married and go to bed
with your beloved spouse, these unpleasant
memories will accompany you.
True love waits. If a boy or girl truly loves you,
they will want the best for you. They will not want
you to suffer fear of disease, unwanted pregnancy
and the psychological difficulties of premarital
sex. They will want to experience love with you
only in the very best place of all - the love nest of
marriage.

SportsMourinho And Abramovich To Clash Over Mata And Tores by wandevincent(op): 11:24pm On Sep 22, 2013
Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho and owner Roman
Abramovic are reportedly set to clash over the
subject of Juan Mata.
Chelsea ended a nightmare week by going
top of the Premier League with a 2-0 victory
over Fulham.
But boss Mourinho is facing the first serious
flashpoint of his second coming at Stamford
Bridge because of his three amigos – Mata,
Fernando Torres and Cesar Azpilicueta. The
Spanish trio are close pals and all feel they
have been left out by Mourinho without the
chance to prove themselves.
Mata and Torres are both firm favourites of
owner Abramovich – and Sunday People
Sport can reveal that the Russian owner
showed unity with both men when he
visited the dressing-room after
Wednesday’s Champions League home
defeat by Basel.
Atletico Madrid are plotting a January loan
move for Mata – which Mourinho would
sanction if it brings Atletico midfielder
Oliver Torres closer to Stamford Bridge.
(Sunday Mirror)
Mata is one of the best players at the club and
many cant figure out why he is on the bench
SportsRe: An Open Letter To Jose Mourinho From A True Chelsea Fan by wandevincent(m): 9:53pm On Sep 21, 2013
U' v spoken my mind bro, it seems u knw exactly what's in my mind, dimateo in his time managed those guys and achieved the unprecedented task of winning the champions league and even the FA cup, I only have abramovich to blame for not giving him enough chance as he would have proved himself to be one of the mosy succesful coaches in the premier league judging by his vision, his flair and the his tactical discipline. The much hated rafa benitez came and did a wonderful job within the short term he was at the helm of affairs, claiming the europa cup and taking chelsea to third place in the premier league, When rafa was first appointed, I was one of those chelsea fans who froewned at abramovich's decision to appoint him but I will not deny the fact that he won my heart with the way he managed chelsea within that time especially his handelling of the combination of mata, hazard and oscar. Now Mr know it all mourhinho is back now to just put all those work in dissarray, he should get this in his brain,Mata is much more a match winner than hazard and posses more qualities than any of those wingers he think he has, he'll continue to fumble unless he instill back the confidence he has taken from mata and start playinh him asap.thanks once again my fellow chelsea fan

xyuche: more DRAMA is still on the way, this is just the prelude
I keep my fingers crossed
PoliticsList Of Lawmakers Who Fought During PDP Rebel Govs’ Visit To National Assembly by wandevincent(op): 2:36pm On Sep 18, 2013
It is no longer news that shameless members of
the House of Representatives put up a show of
shame yesterday, engaging in physical combat
when seven governors loyal to the New Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP) visited the National
Assembly in Abuja.
While the visit to the Senate ended without any
ugly incident, the reverse was the case at the
House of Reps. Trouble started when Hon. Henry
Ofongo, from President Goodluck Jonathan’s
home state, Bayelsa, rose to vehemently oppose
the visit.
The visit had started on a bright note, with
Speaker of the House, Rt. Hon. Aminu Tambuwal,
and other principal officers receiving the
delegation led by the National Chairman of the
New PDP, Alhaji Abubakar Baraje, in Room 0.28.
In the delegation were governors Aliyu Wamakko
(Sokoto); Babangida Aliyu (Niger); Rabiu
Kwankwaso (Kano); Rotimi Amaechi (Rivers); Sule
Lamido (Jigawa); Murtala Nyako (Adamawa); and
Abdulfatai Ahmed (Kwara).
However, in the Huse chambers, as Baraje was
introduced and asked to state the purpose of
their visit, Ofongo, followed by Betty Apiafi
(Rivers); Bethel Amadi (Imo); Kingsley Chinda
(Rivers); and Bitrus Kaze (Plateau) tried to disrupt
proceedings. Shouting “point of order!”, “point of
order!”, Ofongo charged in the direction of the
high table. He insisted that the meeting must not
hold because he did not believe that many of the
people at the venue were PDP members.
Ofogo was punched and shoved by pro-Baraje
Reps and had his jacket pulled off.
Most of the members who charged at Ofongo are
from Kano State. They include Aminu Suleiman,
Baballe Murktar, Ali Madakaki and Ado Dogoa.
Dakuku Peterside and Andrew Uchendu, both
from Rivers State, also shoved Ofongo, preventing
him from moving close to the high table in his
desperation to disrupt the visit.
Pro-Jontahan and Bamanga Tukur lawmakers
rushed in defence of Ofongo, resulting in a free-
for-all during which Ini Udoka from Akwa Ibom
State lifted a chair but was prevented from
throwing it. Another Akwa Ibom rep, Emmanuel
Okon, also joined the fighting on the side of
Ofongo.
The meeting ended hurriedly as tension
escalated.
Romance7 Worst Type Of Relationships That Are Best Avoided by wandevincent(op): 2:29pm On Sep 18, 2013
1. THE TAKE, TAKE, TAKE RELATIONSHIP
The very first relationships that are best avoided
is the take, take, take relationship. This
relationship is full of nothing but taking! Either
your partner is constantly taking from you or you
are constantly taking from your partner. It’s a
relationship that is not about giving at all, which
is not good for anyone. This is a relationship that
you need to get out of as soon as you can,
otherwise you could lose yourself completely!
2. THE ON AND OFF AGAIN
The on again and off again relationship is one of
those that is really hard to be in, because you
never, ever know where you stand in this type of
relationship. If you are in an on again, off again
relationship, get off the carousal and really see if
you can figure out if your boyfriend or girlfriend
can commit to you completely.
3. PLAYER COUPLES
Ah, this has to be one of the worst types of
relationships out there, as it is full of cheating.
Believe it or not, there are a lot of couples out
there that cheat on each other – but are still in a
relationship with one another. Why? Well, it’s
unclear, but they have gotten really sneaky at
hiding the fact that they are cheating on each
other really well.
4. CLINGY COUPLES
These are the couples that can’t get enough of
each other, that have to do everything together
and they almost come as a pair, instead of
individual people. They hardly ever use the term
‘I’ and instead, it’s all about the ‘we’. This is the
type of relationship that could be happy, but
there really is no independence in their
relationship at all, which can be damaging if they
do happen to break up.
5. TOO MUCH DRAMA
Oh, the drama in this type of relationship. This is
a relationship that you just wish that they would
break up, because they fight about every single
thing, no matter what it is. They also don’t care
who is there, because why would they? It’s their
relationship and you are just living near it.
6. THE DOMINATING RELATIONSHIP
This relationship is all about who is the most
dominating and who is the most controlling. It’s a
power-struggle relationship, where both of the
people are really trying to figure out who has the
most power and who is going to tell the other
person what to do. It’s a tough relationship to be
in – all of the time.
7. THE ‘COMFORTABLE’ RELATIONSHIP
Finally, this is a relationship that a ton of people
fall right into. It’s a relationship that is built
around comfort, not necessarily love or need. It’s
a relationship that isn’t necessarily bad, but it’s
just contentment and settling and who wants
that? Don’t you want a relationship that is packed
full of love and want?

CareerRe: Things Every Recent Graduate Should Know by wandevincent(m): 10:15pm On Sep 17, 2013
jesuslovesme123: I graduated over 5 years ago, have sat in over 10 interviews, worked in 3 continents – I have been the most junior member of a company, I have risen to be the most senior member (the Head) of a department, I have interviewed over 40 candidates, hired over 15 candidates and fired 1 employee. I have reviewed over 25 000 CVs (yes, twenty five thousand) and coached over 20 career seekers. I have worked full-time and studied full-time simultaneously, to receive an MBA.

A lot of people graduate with great hopes about post-graduation life. While these hopes can, and hopefully will, be met – they need to realise that times have changed, and success is no longer as ‘easy’ to achieve as it was many years ago. For this reason, graduates should arm themselves with the following observations – things I was forced to learn based on experience - to prevent disappointment:


1. Getting a degree is a great achievement, but it is only the starting point. Professional qualifications, skills-enhancement training and certifications have made the labour market more competitive. The wise graduates will immediately find ways to enhance their profiles.


2. There will always be far more job seekers than jobs, and not every graduate will receive an employment offer within their first year of graduation. The wise graduates will explore (goodly) alternatives right from the start.This leads to point 3 -


3. Many graduates are in a position to create wealth for themselves, but most will not, either because they are adamant about getting a ‘suit-and-tie’ job, or because they are waiting for a huge investment to come in. The wise graduates will start what they can with the little they have.


4. University education was not primarily designed for job-finding purposes, so it baffles me when graduates think that the ONLY way forward after graduation, is to receive an employment offer. Your university degree is designed to enhance your profile, to increase your knowledge, skills and world-view – to make you more useful to yourself and to the world.


5. Graduates need a teflon-coat. The job market and the business world are both very tough, but through resilience and continued effort, success is almost guaranteed.


6. It’s not necessarily the brightest and the best that make it to the top. There are a number of factors / skills that are not taught in the university or by most career centres, but which influence career success. These include: likeability, emotional intelligence, tact, aggressiveness (but not over-aggressiveness) and continuing professional development.


7. Not every job vacancy actually exists. Some are posted by recruitment agents to build their candidate database. In our beloved country, some others are posted by scammers to exploit graduates.


8. Not every job application you make will be seen by the company (because there will be many other applications). The earlier you apply, the more likely you are to have your application seen.


9. Your physical appearance (not in terms of beauty but in terms of neatness, carriage, composure and speech) will many times influence your career more than other factors. The wise graduates will ensure that they look their best and act professionally at all times.



10. It would be unwise to look down on any job opportunities. The ‘low’ jobs are only a ladder towards a better job / career.
nice one but I disagree with no 4, how can I make myself useful to the world if I don't get an opportunity to do so

get off to a good start this week
as they play what is for many
their first Champions League
game of the year.
We’ve broken down all the
action scheduled for this
weekend in our complete guide
to the opening week of the
Champions League – complete
with all the need-to-know
details, viewing information,
team news and predictions.
Read on to see how the first
week of the UEFA Champions
League could unfold.
Manchester United vs
Bayer Leverkusen

Venue: Old Trafford,
On paper, Manchester United
appeared to have been drawn
into another easy Champions
League group.
However, the reality is that the
teams around them are much
tougher than it appears.
Bayer Leverkusen were one of
the breakout teams in the
Bundesliga last season and with attacking stars such as Stefan Kießling, Heung-Min Son and Robbie Kruse all lining up for this one, the German club are certainly capable of causing the
Red Devils some issues.
David Moyes will have been
glad to see the return of both
Wayne Rooney and Robin van
Persie to the goal-scorers sheet
in their recent 2-0 win over
Crystal Palace, and will be
looking to carry that
momentum into this match
here.
And while Bayer Leverkusen are definitely an upset to watch for throughout the tournament, I just can’t see them getting the job done at Old Trafford.
Manchester United are simply
too strong and too disciplined
for that to happen.
•Prediction: Manchester

Galatasaray vs Real Madrid
Date: Wednesday, September

This fixture last year was one
that saw Real Madrid progress
through the round of 16, but not before the likes of Didier
Drogba and Wesley Sneijder
gave the Spanish heavyweights
some serious cause for concern
in the second leg.
The Turk Telecom Arena is a
very difficult place to travel to
(just ask Manchester United
fans), and Los Blancos will have a tough time on their hands as a result.
However, this is why Florentino Perez added so heavily over the summer transfer window – to win the UEFA Champions League – and Madrid should have enough talent to get the job done here.
Between Cristiano Ronaldo,
Gareth Bale, Isco, Angel Di
Maria and Karim Benzema, look for the away side to plug away in attack against the home team, and break through in the second half for a victory.

Bayern Munich vs CSKA
Moscow

Bayern Munich won the treble
last season. CSKA Moscow won the Russian Premier League by two points.
That’s the difference in class
between these two sides here,
and you’d expect it to show
again in this one.
Bayern have an abundance of
talent on hand, and are the
early favourites to make it back-to-back Champions League titles.
With Pep Guardiola running the show now, there’s no reason why they can’t do just that, and they should start that campaign with an early win against CSKA Moscow.
The Russian club might be
undefeated in the RPL this
season, but the Champions
League is a different story
altogether.
And in the packed Allianz
Arena, they’ll likely feel a long,
long, long way away from home indeed.
•Prediction: Bayern Munich
3-0 CSKA Moscow
¤
Viktoria Plzen vs
Manchester City

After a horror Champions
League campaign last season
that saw them eliminated from
the ‘Group of Death’ without a
victory, Manchester City will be looking for a much-improved campaign this year.
They added heavily in the
transfer window – bringing in
Stevan Jovetic, Alvaro Negredo, Fernandinho, Jesus Navas and Martin Demichelis – and new manager Manuel Pellegrini will be desperate to ensure that he gets another European season off to a good start.
Viktoria Plzen will benefit from
being at home (where they are
undefeated in domestic
competition this season), but
Manchester City are simply too
talented.
Inspirational leader Vincent
Kompany’s probable return will sure up some of the defensive lapses that have claimed the club in recent weeks, and their star-studded attack will do the rest for the 2012 English champions.
•Prediction: Viktoria Plzen 0-3
Manchester City

Schalke vs Steaua
Bucharest

•Prediction: Schalke 1-0

¤
Chelsea vs FC Basel
With Jose Mourinho now
running the show, Chelsea were supposed to be an all-
conquering force.
That hasn’t quite been the case
in the Premier League this year, but they’ll be a very strong force in the European competition once more.
Knowing the disappointment of elimination last year as the
defending champions, Chelsea
will attack the competition with renewed vigour and passion.
The Champions League will be
their focus this season, and
Mourinho will ensure that the
Blues don’t slip up in games
they should win – like this one.
Prediction: Chelsea 2-0 Basel
¤
Olympique Marseille vs
Arsenal
A huge game for the Gunners
here. Marseille are a very strong team and will certainly fancy their chances at progressing through to the knockout rounds.
But if Arsenal are to book their
spot in the final 16 and emerge
from a very tough group this
year, these are the type of
games they need to take points
away from.
Mesut Ozil’s debut was a
roaring success for Arsenal, and with Olivier Giroud and Aaron Ramsey both in career-best form, the North London club will back themselves, despite playing away in France.
However, those question marks around their defensive solidity still remain, and as long as they’re there, I can’t see any club with a strong attack failing to cause the Gunners some grief.
I think shared points on the
night, which is a probably not a bad result for either side.
•Prediction: Olympique
Marseille 1-1 Arsenal
¤
Napoli vs Borussia
Dortmund
The best game this week comes
from Naples, where Napoli will
be looking to try and hold off
German giants Borussia
Dortmund.
Jurgen Klopp’s team have been
one of the best teams in world
football over the past 18
months, and will no doubt
fancy their chances at getting a
result in this one.
The biggest question mark here
is as to whose summer signings
will step up the most.
Napoli brought in a new
manager in Rafa Benitez, and
then proceeded to sign the likes of Pepe Reina, Dries Mertens, Raul Albiol, Jose Maria Callejon
and most importantly, Gonzalo
Higuain.
Even without Cavani in their
line-up, they’re still a very
strong team capable of causing
some serious damage.
But so are Dortmund – even
without Mario Gotze. The
Germans have Mkhitaryan and
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in
their line-up now, and with the
experience of success away from home in the Champions League, will prevail in this one.
•Prediction: Napoli 2-4
Borussia Dortmund
¤
Austria Wien vs FC Porto
•Prediction: Austria Wien 1-2

Atletico Madrid vs Zenit St
Petersburg

Atletico Madrid proved a lot to
themselves in the past six
months.
Their victory over Real Madrid
in the Copa del Rey and their
strong showing against
Barcelona across two legs of the Supercopa proved that Atletico have the attacking and
defensive tenacity to withstand
even the best attacks in the
league, and they’ll likely do that again against Zenit St
Petersburg this week.
Zenit struggled in the
Champions League last season
(particularly away from home)
and it’s hard to see that
changing here.
Atletico are strong, and this
result could be their signal to
the rest of the competition that
they are, indeed, the real deal.
•Prediction: Atletico Madrid
2-0 Zenit St. Petersburg
¤
AC Milan vs Celtic

Celtic are a confidence team,
and right now – having
somehow made it through to
the round of 32 – their
confidence is pretty high.
They’ll no doubt still remember
their successes last year against Barcelona and co. to make it through to the knockout rounds, and will no doubt want to do that again this year.
However, having sold the likes
of Gary Hopper and Victor
Wanyama over the summer
window, one wonders where the Scottish club have the talent required to beat Europe’s elite.
Milan have an abundance of
attacking options at their
disposal, and with Mario
Balotelli and Stephan El
Shaarawy running the show,
will most likely be too strong for the Scottish club.
A packed San Siro also helps
with the intimidation factor.
•Prediction: AC Milan 2-1
Celtic
¤
Barcelona vs Ajax

Ajax will struggle without
Christian Eriksen, there’s no
doubt about that.
However, with Viktor Fischer
likely to take over in the middle, Ajax are certainly capable of causing havoc in the
Champions League once more
this year, and will certainly
fancy their chances at
progressing through to the
round of 16.
Yet it doesn’t appear that they’ll get any help this week.
Barcelona are obviously one of
the heavyweights in the
competition this year, and with
Neymar now added to a side
that made it to the semifinals in the past two seasons, it’s hard to see them dropping any points here.
The Nou Camp will be in full
voice, and Ajax will likely feel
like they’re a long way away
from home – unable to stop the dominance of tiki-taka that
they’re likely to experience on
the night.
•Prediction: Barcelona 3-0
Ajax

CrimeRe: Mob Attacks Alleged Cannibals In Lagos by wandevincent(m): 10:07am On Sep 17, 2013
pembisco: There was drama yesterday when an angry mob stri*ped unclad two men, Alaba Abiodun and Samuel, who were allegedly eating human flesh,but they were lucky as the timely arrival of policemen who saved them from being set ablaze.

This is how PM news reported the incident:

Earlier, a passer-by along the rail line in Ikeja saw three men in tattered dresses. One of them was making a call and one eating a meat suspected to be human flesh.

The passer-by raised an alarm that attracted the mob which instantly pounced on the two suspect human part eaters. But the one making the phone call managed to escape.

Their problem was compounded when the mob moved to their hideout behind the Ikeja Local Government Secretariat fence and found a cutlass, knife, charms and meat with fat which the mob suspected to be human flesh.

When a detachment of policemen from Area ‘F’ arrived the scene, Abiodun told them, that he was a carpenter but had no money to set up a workshop.

Abiodun claimed to be from Akiniku in Moloney area of Ilaro, Yewa, Ogun State, Southwest Nigeria. He added that he made the hideout his residence as he could not afford to rent a room for himself.

He explained that the meat discovered in their hideout was a cow fat which they eat and not human parts.

After intensive questioning, the policemen were convinced that the suspects were mistaken for human parts eaters and sellers by the mob. They were later released.

Speaking with P.M.NEWS on the incident, a police officer who preferred anonymity advised the public to investigate suspected criminals before taking any action.

But for the timely intervention of the policemen, the officer noted, the suspects would have been set ablaze.
