United Nations Information Centre in Nigeria has said women have a poorer representation in President Muhammadu Buhari-led government than in past administrations.

UNIC Lagos Director, Mr. Ronald Kayanja said this yesterday at the United Nations International Women’s Day celebration, organised by a coalition of non-governmental organisations in Lagos.
He attributed the situation to huge funding required for election campaign and traditional perception of women, saying economic and gender-based violence also increased the risk of young women contracting Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).

He said, “In Nigeria today, women represent 58 per cent of all the people living with HIV. The power inequalities that underline gender-based violence, including physical, sexual, psychological and economic violence, expose young women to HIV.
“I hasten to add that even though women are disproportionately affected by the HIV epidemic, more men than women die of AIDS every year in Nigeria.
“Of particular concern to the UN is the political will to implement the Nigeria National Gender Policy, which commits to affirmative action and requires that women fill 35 per cent of appointed positions.
“Regrettably, we are far from the target presently. For instance, in the current National Assembly, women representation is at its lowest with only 5.6 per cent of the members of the House of Representatives and 6.5 per cent of the senators being women.”

THE Nigerian Army Unit Commander stationed at Ovre-Eku community, Ethiope East Local Government Area, Delta State, Lt. E. D. Oworobo, has told a police source that the reason he ordered his men to flog the women who had embarked on a peaceful protest over a disputed land claimed by PRESCO Oil Company, was because they attempted to disarm his men.

Oworobo and his men of the 4th Brigade Command, Benin-City, Edo State, had last Wednesday, flogged and kicked hundreds of women protesting at Ovre-Eku (Iwevbo) community over a land which had been in dispute for years between Edo and Delta states.
The source who spoke on condition of anonymity, said that Oworobo had contacted the District Officer, DO, of Eku Police station, Mr. Andrew Efejedia, in an attempt to exonerate himself and his men of any wrong doing in the incident, where he claimed that he had no option than to order his men to use minimal force to disperse the protesters who had tried to disarm his men.
According to the source, Oworobo had asked the DO, “Don’t you know it is a crime to carry a charm according to the Criminal Code of Nigeria?”




Meanwhile, Lt. Oworobo has also threatened to deal with the Warri correspondents of The Authority and The Nation newspapers, Theophilus Onojeghen and Bolaji Ogundele, both of whom had contacted him to know what actually transpired between his men and the protesting women.
The offence of the journalists was their temerity to contact him for the military’s side of the incident.
In separate reactions to the journalists, an angry Lt Oworobo had described them as idiots and madmen, allegedly saying: “You’re an idiot. You’re a mad man. Why are you calling me? So I should report to you abi? Who are you to call me? If you ever call me in your life, I’ll deal mercilessly with you.”

A 27-year-old man, Mfon Obot Essien, was Wednesday sentenced to and half years imprisonment for tricking an American family to pay $3,000 for a fake kidnap of their daughter.
Essien, from Akwa Ibom State and goes by the pseudonyms: David Morris and Femi James, was arrested in 2013 following a petition written to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC by the United States (US) Department of Homeland Security.
They had written the petition, urging the Commission to investigate a criminal organization involved in drug smuggling, money laundering and fraud.


According to the petition, “A US family whose daughter travelled to Argentina got a call from her boyfriend claiming that they had both been kidnapped.
“The kidnappers demanded a ransom of $7,000, which should be sent through money transfer to their associates in Nigeria with the details “David Morris, 302, Apapa Expressway, Ikeja, Lagos, Nigeria 23401.
“Investigation in the US however revealed that the girl was not kidnapped but was under arrest in Argentina for attempting to smuggle cocaine out of that country after being cajoled to do so by her boyfriend of Nigerian descent.
“The US authorities then contacted MoneyGram to issue a false money order for $3,000, as against the $7,000 demanded, to enable the arrest of Morris whenever he showed up to receive the money in Lagos,” the petition had divulged.



Following this, Essien’s attempt to withdraw the $3,000 on August 2, 2013 at Chevron Lekki Drive branch of Access Bank failed.
He reportedly tried the following day at the Ikota Branch of the bank and then returned again on August 5, not knowing that a query had been lodged concerning his transaction.
In his next attempt on September 5, 2013 at the same branch, he was arrested.
Essien was unaware that a trap had been set. Operatives of the EFCC burgled him up when he identified himself as David Morris and asked for his $3,000.
Following his arrest, items recovered from him included a forged drivers’ license with No. KSF08417AA2 bearing the name: ‘James Femi’ but with Essien’s picture.



According to reports, EFCC investigation also showed that on July 28, 2013, Essien fraudulently received N237, 537.68 from another American, one Mark Mentor, using a forged drivers’ license with No. FFF14411AB6 bearing the name: David Morris but with Essien’s picture as well.
He was found to have represented himself to Mentor as David Morris.
Subsequently, Essien had also received, on different occasions, $460 and $900 from another US Citizen, Dylan Johnson, through MoneyGram.
During his arraignment in 2013, Essien pleaded not guilty to the charges, but when trial began, he asked to change his plea and was re-arraigned.
The EFCC Prosecuting Counsel, Mrs Zainab Ettu, in her address on December 9, 2015, had reportedly told the court that investigations by the Commission showed that Essien belonged to “a syndicate of fraudsters.


“These fraudsters use different machinations to fraudulently obtain money from unsuspecting and vulnerable victims,” Ettu had said, noting that the offences contravened sections 8(a)(b) (c), 1(3) of the Advanced Fee Fraud and Other Related Offences Act No. 14 of 2006 and sections 409 and 363 the Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2011 and urged the court to convict him.
However, at his arraignment yesterday at a High Court in Igbosere, after he pleaded guilty to a six-count charge of conspiracy, obtaining money by false pretence and forgery, Essien bagged a total of 28-year jail term.
The Chief Judge, Justice Ralikat Adebiyi sentenced Essien to a minimum of seven years each on the first three counts, and one and a half year on count four.
The defendant was also sentenced to three years each on two counts of forgery, bringing the total to 28 and half years.

A Nigerian father who was convicted of beating his 12-year-old son to death for not doing homework, has been sentenced to 10 years in jail.
ZA, 37, will be deported after serving his sentence.
The man rushed his son’s body to hospital one day in April last year telling doctors that he had given his son milk and the boy took ill after that, complaining of stomach pain and vomiting.
Meanwhile, the boy’s private tuition teacher, Pakistani, 52-year-old GI, claimed that she had seen bruises on the boy’s face and body several times.
She said that the boy first evaded her questions but later revealed that his dad beats him and added that one day the boy pleaded with her to help him in a subject that she did not teach him. The boy claimed that if she did not help him solve the math, his dad would beat him, the teacher testified.


The boy’s situation was discussed at a school meeting and the father was summoned. He, however, told the supervisor that he wanted his son to excel in his studies because he spend all his money on his education.
The security guard at the building also testified that he had one day heard screams and on checking found the man pushing his son underwater. When he intervened, the man allegedly dismissed him saying he was teaching his son swimming.
CCTV footages revealed the dad taking the boy to swimming pool when no one was there and he had a stick with him.
The watchman also recalled seeing bruises on the boy and one day he caught the boy with a swollen forehead.
The father confessed to police that he beat up his son with a wooden stick or shoes or punched him. Allegedly on April 18, the father received an email from the school about his son’s low performance.
“I punished him and prevented him from going out. I asked him to stay at home and do his homework. He was being careless, so I slapped him in the face, but he continued drawing in his book. I got angry and beat him up and then again asked him to do his homework. Then I gave him milk and asked him to continue doing his homework. However, he started vomiting, and told me that he had stomach pain,” the man told police.


“While I was in the kitchen, I heard a sound. On looking I found my son on the floor. I took him to the bathroom and then asked him to clean up. But again in the bathroom he fell down. So I took him to hospital,” the father added.
He said he took the boy to hospital at 10.30pm but records show the boy was in hospital only around midnight. He was declared dead on arrival at hospital.

DNA tests reveal that the boy was not his biological son.
Police found blood vomit at home. They also found an iPad that the boy used, through which he had sought help online. A sentence reading, “Help, I got hit on my stomach,” was found on the iPad.
Post-mortem revealed that the boy died due to internal bleeding. His intestines were also damaged.
The man had denied the charges of pre-meditated murder. He was sentenced to 10 years in jail, after which he will be deported.
