Police invitation for interrogation into any matter is NOT UNLAWFUL but LAWFUL Thank you. If she is found wanting in any way the police can then arrest her.

Found wanting for what exactly? What are you accusing her of - kidnapping? Did you not read the original post or you have a comprehension deficit disorder. According to the post, the lady friend had helped the family as best as she could by providing information she has about the girl's whereabout to them.

Read this portion once again and comprehend;

Just on Saturday which is two days ago, she told us her girl friend ,(someone about 7 years older than she is, a single mother) is siçk, she seek visiting her, we okayed that, only to find out she had played us in other to visit someone she had met on Facebook far far away, she did came back same Saturday very late though.

Before then my mom had confronted the supposed sick lady only to find out all was a ....(lie)

Upon her return she was scolded......only for her to pick few of her stuffs and run away on Sunday, then we discovered , that somehow her girl friend to give us the phone number of the boy she had visited, she tipped us into believing she must have encouraged her to run away or maybe away of the stranger my sister might have ran to.

The spoilt 24 year old girl lied to her family using the girlfriend as excuse. She later came back to pack her load to run away to live with her new lover, the girlfriend provided the phone number of the guy she suspected the 24 year old ran away with, and you are talking about police arresting the girl. For what exactly?

Secondly OP sister is 24 years old adult and doesn't takes away the moral right of the family also know her whereabouts.Families look out for each other.
Well in the eyes of the law,she is currently a missing person.

Police is not hisbah with mandate to enforce moral rights. The family should get in touch with their daughter and her new lover to establish her whereabouts before involving the police.

Pls desist from supporting evil. If your sister or any of your love ones happen to be in same situation i bet you won't suggest they be left alone not knowing their whereabouts or if they safe just because they adults.
Pathetic

It's you that is supporting evil, the intimidation and harassment of a poor single mother probably due to hatred.

Mercury12:
Look for her no matter what it takes...
Fight dirty. That her girl friend needs to provide more clues! Secondly your sister is more likely to contact her on phone first for anything.
So let the police come in and do their interrogations and locating her whereabouts.
No where is safe in Nigeria. Just pray she is in good hands wherever she is or whomever she is with.

Provide more clues to what? Don't the family of the girl (24 year old kid sister) have her phone numbers? She has the right to live any where she wishes and doesn't need anyone's permission or content.

If they arrest the girl friend unjustly, she should sue the family and police for unlawful arrest.

Research has shown that 73% of the time when election results take this long to count verify and results released to the general public, it favours the evil demonrats.

It's not research but common sense. In the last election cycle, Republicans were demonising mail in voting while vigorous promoting in person voting, while Democrats promoted mail in voting as against in person. This was due to different philosophies regarding the Covid pandemic. Mail in voting takes days and weeks to go through the post, sort, verify and count. So common sense dictate that the election results that come in after voting day heavily favours democrats.

In the past two years, efforts by state legislators in battleground states to bring speed, transparency and efficiency to election process were shot down by demonrats governors in these states. Arizona being one for them.

Before the 2019 elections most of the battleground states won by democrats had Republican legislatures enacting electoral kaws, Republican secretary of state organising the elections and some even had Republican governors . So you cannot blame the democrats for the laws and conduct of the elections.

Katie Hobbs, running for governor in that state is also the one overseeing the electoral process in that state. If you don’t see anything wrong with such an arrangement, then I’m left with nothing to say to you anymore.

This is not a unique case. In the 2019 elections, Brian Kemp was the secretary of state organising an election in which he was a candidate. I did not hear you guys complain then.

ono:
So, pray tell, how did Florida (and many other states) wrap up voting in just 24 - 48 hours after election day? Or there are not people in Military and diplomats assignments of Florida origins?

I am surprised I have to educate you on US electoral system.

US being a federation has different electoral laws for different states. The electoral laws are enacted by each state house legislature. Different states have different ways of handling mail-in and absentee voting. Some states process them on election day, others dont start processing them until in person voting has been counted. Others allow for the ballots to come in up to a month after voting day, as long as they were posted before election day.

If MAGATs suspect fraud and foul play, why don't they present evidence before the appropriate authorities and finally the courts. Are you guys never tied of elevating speculations to the level of facts?

zendi:
In Anambra, Brazil or Italy, vote counting is concluded in two days.
In a Woketopia, vote counting continues until the woke wins.

Anambra, Brazil or Italy don't do mail-in or absentee voting. The mail-in ballot which must be posted by election day, must first get to the Election Office, sorted, signature verified before being counted.

This is not new but had been the system for decades. Republicans had won many elections with this system. Trump himself had voted with mail-in in the past. Military, diplomats and overseas officers vote by absentee, unless you suggest that these categories of Americans should not exercise their civic rights.

You guys are behaving as if these issues are novel or new.

PrimeWatermark:
Hehehehehehehe
Is that all?

Don't worry, you'll soon jam a wolf in sheep's clothing. Then you'll know how far.

It's not even as if the man is a traditionalist, atheist or pagan.
Creating a problem where there is none. Let them be decieving you with 'Do not be unequally yoked'.

Religion shaa

I am an atheist, my wife is a pentecostal Christian and have been happily married for 15 years. So what's your problem?

There are many many atheists or non religious people happily married to Christians, likewise many Muslims happily married to Christians.
In the reverse, there are many Christians marriages from the same denomination that ended up in unhappy marriages - physical abuse, neglect and infidelity.

basilico:
Commies never reliquish power. They shall them isolate right wing, MAGA and brand them election deniers in the next two years.
What I have never understood is why they are so afraid of Trump that they hound him literally 24/7

Election denying seem to be a major part of the MAGA movement. Only MAGATS believe without presenting any fact that any election they lose is rigged, but any election they win is legitimate.

Normal Republicans don't think like that.

If Ron Desantis should run for presidency, it will divide the Republican Party into 2 down the line. MAGA vs Real Republican - Trump cult worshippers vs those with republican ideals.

ono:
How is it that a president with a very low job performance rating, going into the mid term elections is getting his goons voted in and putting up such a strong performance?

Rigged election people!!

Abortion and Trump's Maga Movement.

According to exit polls, abortion is almost at the same point with the economy in terms of importance in voting. Then more independents voted for Democrats because of they were against trump and his MAGA Movement.

LordReed:
LoLz. Any fool can luck into money. Having money is not a sign of genius. Musk was born into a wealthy white South African diamond mine owning family so don't have it at the back of your mind that he was some poor disenfranchised African immigrant. Musk undoubtedly has displayed some business acumen in accumulating wealth, that doesn't mean he is capable of handling every type of situation or business and his acquisition of Twitter is a glaring testimony to that. Not only did he buy it at almost 4x times more than what most analysts value it at he came in with no plan and starts firing people who had experience, the kind of people you cannot hire overnight. Musk may have business acumen but open your eyes for Andromeda's sake and see that this his handling of Twitter so far has been a royal fuckup.

Oh my fucking Andromeda. You're telling me with a straight face that you couldn't foresee that allowing what was essentially a security check to be purchased by any yahoo with $8 would be a problem? No wonder you think Musk is a genius. LMFAO! Everybody and their mother was screaming at how much of a bad idea this was, here you are telling me nobody could have foreseen it. What a joke.

Also you think they are going to bring back this $8 blue check mark? Oh please tell me you are willing to bet on this lemme take your money on a platter of gold. LMFAO! Also the folks liking your post should put their money where their mouth is.

As of a year ago, I used to consider Elon Musk as a genius, but with his stupid twitter debacle, I realize that he was just extremely lucky and not very smart. Definitely not in the mould of Steve Jobs, Bill Gates or even Richard Branson.

How can someone buy a company that had been making losses consistently for the last 10 years for $44 billion? He just dashed Jack Dawson free money. Unless Elon Musk gets a proper management with a brilliant CEO to clean up his mess, I see twitter dying in 2 years.

Even me that is an IT illiterate knew from the beginning that the $8 blue check verification was stupid. Many other IT experts said it will not work, but Elon Musk is behaving like a third world dictator, thinking he is omniscient.

And In Your own Opinion Ataga was a Saint?

No one is saying Ataga was a Saint, he was not the devil either. He was simply a man doing what men do, and he did not deserve to be gruesome murdered for it.

It was greed that drove Ataga into Chidinma's hands in the first place

Greed ke? Did he expect any material things from Chidinma? It was his high libido that drove him into Chidinma's hands,and Chidinma exploited that opportunity to satisfy her greed. In other climes, a man of such high libido is allowed to marry multiple young wives.

Do you think any decent girls have time for Ataga's type?

Believe me many decent girls are ready to befriend and marry someone as rich and handsome as Ataga.

christistruth01:
Your ideology has sent Ataga to an early grave

It's not any ideology that sent Ataga to an early grave but a wicked, greedy and callous girl. Imagine killing him and the stealing his money and properties without conscience? What kind of ideology is that?

christistruth01:
How did Ataga's phone end up with Chidinma's sister if Chidinma had disowned her?

When you read a story use discretion and don't just swallow everything anyone puts out there

Ataga was old enough to know it was a bad idea to be exploiting a girl young enough to be his own daughter

Both Chidinma's Uncle and Ataga exploited her and she lost it

Ataga get wife for house
He should have settled with his madam

He didn't need to sleep with her before giving her help he could have given her a descent job to maintain herself

It is a pity how he died sha
I expected Ataga to behave with more Wisdom
Ataga no be pikin

A 21 yr old girl was smoking pot and 50 year old Ataga too joined her,Ah Ah

I stead of him to snatch it from her and tell her he must never see her do that again

Your type is the main reason why I left Christianity about 30 years ago, and I never regretted it. You guys just like your Muslim counterpart are very cruel, inhuman and callous. You guys are too obsessed with other people's sex lives and wish them death if they don't conform to your sexual morality.

Ataga having sexual relations with Chidinma is not a crime worthy of gruesome murder. It was not a case of rape, but one of 2 consenting adults. Someone like Ned Nwoko have relations with younger girls and wife multiple of them. They don't go murdering him. Men had been sleeping with young women before christ and will continue sleeping with young women even after his second coming. It can only be a religious sin, it is never a civil crime before talking about punishment with death penalty.

At 21 Chidinma is a legal adult, she is responsible for her decisions and actions. Many ladies are already married at 21.

You have no right to question the sexual lives of Ataga, Chidinma or anyone else who is not a member of your religious sect.

christistruth01:
I am beginning to suspect you as a damage Control Contractor
Return the money and stop defending evil

What do you mean by damage control contractor? This is a public interest case and lots of Nigerians have been following the case since it happened. Most neutral Nigerians just want to see justice done and the murderer(s) should be duly punished.

Do you think it is a Coincidence that they have the same Surname?

Did you not read the screenshot I posted? The sister said she changed her name from Chidinma Echefu to Chidinma Ojukwu. The sister said their fathers name was not Ojukwu and they are from Imo State and not Abia.
I am sure these facts will come out during the trial.

Ojukwu is not a Common Igbo name like Okonkwo or Orji

The Uncle Chidinma was having an affair with is her father's Junior Brother

You refuse to provide the source where you got your information that Chidinma's fathers name is Ojukwu.

I followed the case diligently because inspite of what Chidinma did I don't want her to get Capital Punishment and I want her to Repent and be given another Chance because of her young age

What of Ataga? Does he not deserve another chance of living a full life?
What of Atagas young children, don't they deserve another chance with their father?
I shudder at your warped sense of justice. You want a murderer (suspected) to go scot free because she repented and is young.
I don't support capital punishment either, but a murderer must be punished appropriately for his/her crime.
That's against the universal law of karma.

christistruth01:
The man is her father's Junior Brother

That is why they have the same Surname


It is shame that may be making the family deny him now after it was revealed that he was sleeping with his niece but when the case started he was her father's Junior Brother and they all had the same Surname

And how do you know these? Are you related to Chidinma?
Chidinma's blood sister came out to debunk any relationship with Mr Ojukwu. If they were actually related, then why does she refer to him as Foster father instead of uncle?

christistruth01:
The uncle is her father's Junior Brother and they both have the same Surname

False! The man she is living with is her sugar daddy and not related to her in anyway.

greggng:
I am disappointed with this comment from the police . How is this relevant to this case ? The Foster father wasn't at the scene of the crime ..the sex issue BTW her and the Foster father is neither here nor there cos is not relevant to the case . Nigerians want to see evidence where the Foster father encouraged chidinma to kill the victim for there own benefit . That will amount to premeditated murder ...if the only evidence you have is that she is having sex with her Foster father ...then you.have lost the case. That evidence amount nothing as far as this case is concern. She is being tried for murder not for incest

Mr Ojukwu was not accused of murder.
The "foster father" prevented the police from arresting her when they came to his house. That's obstruction of justice. He might also be an accessory to helping chidinma hide evidence after the murder.

Let the police and the court do their job.

HRMK:
most of the so called yoruba,including this adebanjo created most of the problems of the yorubas!they are all after their own pockets(stomach infrastructure)adebanjo was saying it was the turn of igbos to rule!ok,but is obi the only igbo presidential candidate?i can count nothing less than five igbos on their list!it is obvious adebanjo goes with who can pay his price!we all know how obi suddenly became the LP flagbearer overnight without bn a registered member of the party!he must have paid through the nose!NOTHING GOES FOR NOTHING IN NIGERIA!YOU RUB MY BACK AND I RUB YOURS TOO!!

The Person of the calibre career, integrity and age of Pa Adebayo can never be bought. Besides if he wanted to sell his conscience, I am sure Tinubu or Atiku will pay far higher than Obi.

He was speaking from his conscience. Anyone with a conscience should recognise that the Yoruba-Fulani should support other tribes for the presidency, particularly the Igbos.

tegrianonigltd:
Every living thing today na Tinubu for that Lagos, even we Wey partly grow there, na Tinubu feed us till we grow lol. Even the sand na Tinubu import am.

Banana Island was sandfilled during Abacha. Park View Estate where Tinubu lived before 1999 was developed during IBB.
Oniru was sandfilled by Raji Rasaki.

sangresan:
What kind of stupid statement is this? Goodluck Jonathan is Fulani? Tell us how many Yorubas have become Nigerian president.

Goodluck Jonathan was a mistake. He was drafted in by the Yoruba-Fulani political hemogeny (headed then by OBJ) as docile houseboy. But unfortunately Yaradua died, and the progressive Yorubas did not allow them to bypass him. Hence the forced "doctrine of necessity".

Look at elected presidents since 1979.
1979 - Shehu Shagari
1983 - Shehu Shagari
1999 - Olusegun Obasanjo
2003 - Olusegun Obasanjo
2007 - Shehu Yaradua (died in office)
2011 - Jonathab Goodluck
2015 - Muhammadu Buhari
2019 - Muhammadu Buhari

Don't you think power should now go outside Yoruba-Fulani in 2023?

Now if Tinubu should win in 2023 and rule for 8 years, Shettima being the vice would definitely want to rule for the next 8 years. That would be almost 50 years of Yoruba-Fulani rule. (except the 5 years Jonathan break)
Do you think this is fair?

sangresan:
This idiotic old man should rest.

The old man is very wise. It's a travesty of justice and fairness for power to rotate only between the Yoruba and Fulani, when we gave many tribes and regions in Nigeria. The old man knows this will further cause division within Nigeria.

tegrianonigltd:
Lekki was not developed by Tinubu, not even banana island, take a chill pill.

Don't mind them. They live in an alternative universe. Lekki phase one was completed before Tinubu was sworn in in 1999. VGC along the Lekki corridor was built during Abacha.

maestroferddi:
You are supposed to be educated but hey! you are sounding like a stark illiterate...

This human is till undergoing trial and here you are sounding like you just fell down from outer space...

You that is a Stark literate, please enlighten us on the relationship between Chidinma and Mr Ojukwu, and how she changed her name from Chidinma Egbuchu to Chidinma Ojukwu.

masseratti:
What has that got to do with the case of murder at hand, our police need to be more professional, established your case, focus on it and prove it beyond reasonable doubts, that's all, she can have sex with anyone for all I care once she is not a minor, but detaining the man cos he had sex with her? I don't see the correlation.

It has a lot to do with the case. Nigerians claim to know more than professionals.

The police lawyers are establishing the reliability and integrity of the accused. The trial is about who is lying between the police and the accused on the statement first given to the police. A girl having sex with numerous men including her "foster father" and lying about it cannot be relied upon to tell the truth.

The police is trying to establish that the so called "foster father" is an accessory to the crime before or after the crime. That was why he was arrested and tried. Its left for the police to present their evifence and let the court decide.

A foster FATHER sleeping with his very young ward, and you think the ward is to blame first?

Abeg me I now hear English o. Watin be foster father in 9ja? She be orphan, or the mother put her up for adoption?

Are the masses begging govt to build railway? What the masses is saying is, re-construct and maintain our bad roads.
Reduce prices of petroleum products and food, and give us stable power.
Where are our representatives in the Senate and rep? Are they the ones advising the presidency to borrow to build railway amidst present economic hardship when a bag of rice is 50k?

Without tail transportation, a country cannot industrialise or develop. Roads are cheap to build and very expensive to maintain. Cars and trucks cannot be used to move huge quantities of materials and people.

joshjc:
Since amaechi left the ministry of transport has been performing poorly or is it lack of publicity

Na where Amaechi leave the rail and indeed transportation, na there e go remain until next administration. The new minister will simply use his short tenure to cash out.

Why do you think he intends to monetize badge verification. Elon Musk is more of a business man than a politician.

And you think badge verification will work? Very suspect and risky business model. The model that had been working for social media from inception is to offer free quality service and then make money from advertisers and by selling subscriber information. That's how Facebook, Google search, YouTube, nairaland, WhatsApp, etc works. Asking people to pay for verification will discourage people. The idea of buying verification itself would create distrust.

Elon Musk has been making political statements and enmeshed himself into the political mud fight between the left and the right of late.

Zenzu01:
Elon Musk is a business man and it's obvious he's doing all these to protect his new business. Remember that Jack plans to open another social network which will want to complete with Twitter, so the best is not to allow Jack still have insiders that can still feed him with info about what's going on in Twitter. The problem is just that these people will become jobless and that's not cool.

PS: this is just my point of view oo, as I believe Elon Musk aims to make profit with Twitter.

False assumption. The aim of Musk buying twitter is political and not profit. At $44 billion, how many years or decades does he hope to break even, before even talking about profit? For company that had posted profit only once in the last 10 years.

Worst advice. Two hands working can do more than a thousand clasped in prayer.

Learn a skill. The best being an IT skill. But if you don't have the brains or resources to learn an IT skill, learn any skill. Just make sure you are good at it. Good skills earn more than any employment you can get, even with a degree.

This man can only appear in stage managed events by his cronies and must read directly from the script given to him,else he will goof as usual,the same way they packaged the calamity called Buhari,is the same way they are trying hard to present this tragedy called Tinubu.
You have all this wonderful ideas and as the leader of APC,you didnt share it with Buhari whom you say you are going to continue in his 'good work'.
Shameless evil old men that have decided to keep Nigeria and Nigerians in perpetual poverty and state of hopelesness.

Which wonderful idea is he saying. So saying that "“Our economy is too much dependent on export of raw materials, this is insufficient to fund the economy" is a wonderful idea? A first year economics undergraduate knows that depending on exporting raw materials and importing finished products leads to economic disaster. Or is it shouting private - public partnership up and down while not accounting for what they do with billions generated as IGR and federal allocations every months.

Non of the three presidential candidates are saying anything new. We have a leadership crisis in Nigeria.

Thats your guy reading a badly scripted poem like say na bedtime story...i wan laugh die..

Thanks. The speech was pathetic. I was only able to view half of it before cringing in disgust. The speech has zero substance and was poorly delivered. No wonder Tinubu's supporters avoid posting the video and audio.

Tinubu should fire his speech writer. He or she absolute has no idea of politics, economy or governance. Just familiar sound bites to rile up the audience.

Tinubu is also in cognitive decline. He can scarcely start and finish a sentence. He most times fail to complete words.
