Former Vice President of Nigeria and 2019 Presidental Candidate Atiku Abubakar, has called on the government to deal decisively with university lecturers in the habit of sexually harassing young female undergraduates for grades and favour.

Describing the situation as a scandal, Atiku said, “This is unacceptable and requires systemic strategies to put a deterrence to such behaviour.”

Uhhhmm shouldn’t he be putting an end to the one happening in the North, since the north is the head office of sexialy abuse and go silent. It is easier to call on the governement. Does it have to be every single time that a person you don’t Like is the President that you frustrate him in deep ways, while pretending to be doing it for fans and victims while pretending to care about thrur safety.

Former Senate president Bukola Saraki following the exposure of a Pastor/ Unilag lecturer who is notoriously known for his sexual assaults towards  different student of the institute. The former senate president has asked that the president of the federal Republic of Nigeria  revisit the Sexual abusive bill. I wonder how much of it goes on in the North.

President of the Nigerian Senate, Bukola Saraki, has called on President Muhammadu Buhari and the National Assembly to revisit the sexual harassment bill passed by the eighth Senate.

As a father, I’m appalled by the actions of lecturers captured in the #SexForGrades exposé. We cannot allow this sort of deplorable behaviour to fester amongst our society.

While we are not surprised that something of this sort is clearly happening in the universities, we are however happy to know that due to so many reports on the issue, BBC thought it wise to investigate this rubbish. Lectures/four square Pastor from Unilag and another lecturer from ghana, have both been disgraced by their potential victims who happen to BBC undercover females who were deliberately placed in these lecturers’ pathway to cat them red-handed. Seems the world of females who attended Unilag have been a victim once or twice to these very bold lectureres who even go as far as gaining people’s trust by hiding under the “Pastor” unberella, just to have sex with them for some exchange of sex with food.

Where there is a will there is a way. And the federal government of Nigeria is about to have so much will on the stolen money of one of its biggest fraudsters. According to news making rounds today Monday 7th Oct. 2019, is the federal high Court in Lagos is said to have sat and thought and concluded and now demanding that the recently Forbes list Fraudster  Invictus Obi forfeit his illegally gotten wealth of N280,555,010.65 discovered in the bank accounts of Invictus Oil and Gas Limited and Invictus Investment Limited.

Obinwanne Okeke aka #Invictus is currently standing trial in the U.S over an alleged $11m cyber fraud, following his recent arrest by the FBI. Talk about being kicked when you are down. Why the federal government is suddenly wanted to eat from where they didn’t sow is still not surprising to me knowing thatbthr Nigerian government is onyl good at taking and not giving. Rather than wait it out, the FG is suddenly interested in the illegally gotrne money. They will share it and that will be the end of it all.

#EFFC had told the court that the two firms were owned by Invictus, described as “a strong leader of a cyber crime syndicate that specialised in business e-mail compromise.”

Following an ex parte application by the EFCC on Monday, Justice Rilwan Aikawa made an order for the temporary forfeiture of the money.

EFCC lawyer, Rotimi Oyedepo, had told the court that he was assigned to investigate a request for information on Invictus and three others by the U.S Department of Justice, Office of the Legal Attache, US Consulate-General.

He added that the funds in the accounts were “reasonably suspected” to be proceeds of cyber crime and urged the judge to order its forfeiture to the Federal Government to prevent Okeke from dissipating same.

So how will keeping this suspected illegally proceed prove that the government is fighting corruption? Isn’t this the same thing that he is doing? What does he plan to do with the money? This people keep getting greedier and greedier. Give the money back to the US, or name a legitimate project and use the money for it. But then again, this is the money that will be forcefully taken away from that account in a false pretence of helping the US prosecute Mr Obi, but will simply being gaining from where they didn’t sow.

The world we live in right now is incredibly, disturbingly scary. By speaking the truth about the tragic passing of a neighbor, this young Man has been sent to an early grave. This is horrible.

from @shaunking  – BIG ANNOUNCEMENT.
My friend and brother Bill Perkins @BillPerkins is providing $100,000 for the reward to help us find who murdered Joshua Brown.

Joshua was executed.

He was a lead witness in the murder of Botham Jean & was shot & killed right there in his apartment complex. We will not stop until we find who did this. Joshua had no enemies, no debts, worked full-time and lived a very quiet life.

This is an emotional moment in court where Joshua Brown talks about what he knew about Botham Jean. He breaks down and court has to go into recess. He was deeply effected by this murder. But by testifying that he could hear Botham singing in his apartment he undermines a key element of the defense. Amber claimed she shouted commands to Botham before shooting him. She didn’t. No one heard that. No neighbors. No passerby’s. Not Joshua as he walked down the corridor. No one. I just learned from the medical examiner that Joshua was shot in his mouth and his chest. He was ambushed at his apartment complex as he got out of his car and shot at close range. His mother asked that I do whatever it takes to get to the bottom of his murder. She suspects foul play and it is difficult to rule it out. He had no known enemies. He worked for a living. He was not in the streets. We need answers. Immediately.

Joshua Brown, the next door neighbor of #BothamJean, was reportedly shot and killed late Friday night near his apartment complex in Dallas, @lawandcrime reports.

Coincidentally, Joshua testified against Amber Guyger during her trial just days earlier. As we previously reported, Amber was sentenced to 10 years in prison for the murder of Botham Jean. Please keep the families involved in your prayers, #Roomies. (📸: @lawandcrime)

Reposted from @shaunking  – Ask yourself this one question. If Botham Jean walked into a white woman’s house while she was in her pajamas on the couch, watching TV, eating ice cream, and proceeded to shoot and kill her, then text his girlfriend, and refuse all first aid, what would happen to Botham? You know the answer. All of America knows the answer.

Amber Guyger’s fate was left in the jurors’ hands after defense called it a day, beginning the first of deliberations. Now, after several hours of deliberation, the jury has found Guyger guilty of murder. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Guyger faces the maximum sentence of life in prison. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
According to the Dallas Morning News, her defense said: “a series of horrible mistakes” led to her shooting Botham Jean out of fear for her life, during their closing statements. However, prosecutors said claims of self-defense don’t apply in Guyger’s case because Jean was not a threat to her; stating she had other options besides killing him and that she acted unreasonably by failing to notice she wasn’t even at her own apartment.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The 31-year-old Guyger said she mistook Jean’s apartment for her own on the night of Sept. 6, 2018, and fatally shot 26-year-old Jean, thinking he was a burglar.

Prosecutor Jason Fine began the state’s closing arguments by reading something Guyger said during her testimony: “I never want anybody to have to go through or even imagine going through what I felt that night.”

“Are you kidding me?” he said, as the Dallas Morning News described him then crumpling up the paper he was reading from and tossing it in the trash. “That is garbage.”

Reposted from @allnewsinc  – The jury, which found Guyger guilty of murder Tuesday, unanimously decided the sentence after listening to Jean and Guyger’s families, friends, and coworkers over two days of emotional testimony. “My life has not been the same,” his mother told the jurors. “It’s just been like a roller coaster. I cannot sleep, I cannot eat.” While judges usually determine sentences for defendants, Texas allows juries to do so. Guyger was facing between five to 99 years in prison after the jury found her guilty of murder. (📷: Dallas County Sheriff’s Department via AP/ Facebook) Via: @buzzfeednews #amberguyger #bothamjean

BBN is pornography – Reps committee chair on women affairs .
.
Chairperson, House of Representatives Committee on Women Affairs and Social Development, Hon. Wunmi Onanuga, has lashed out at reality show, Big Brother Nigeria, saying it has been reduced to pornography.
.
.
She said this in a recent interview with TheNation, when asked about her opinion about this current Big Brother Naija show.
.
.
According to her: “First of all, I don’t watch it. Because the first time, I did, I think it was four or five years ago. I don’t know what I was doing that night. I think I was unable to sleep because I had lots of stuff I was writing that night. .
.
The television was on so I could have sound in my room. I don’t know how I got to watch it that night and I saw how they were being intimate on the programme, and I was like: is this what they do? .
.
I was shocked that that programme would get to the point where on live television, adults, so to speak…they’re adults, they can do what they like, but they have turned it to pornography. .
.
Even if it was under the duvet or whatever it is, it was obvious they were getting intimate. And I just got disgusted. For me, it is a personal thing and I do not agree with the values it is sending across.
.
.
We have enough problems with young people being sexually active at a very young age. We don’t need a programme that will tell them that being that active is moral. It is immoral! That is personal. .
.
Those who believe they can make so much money with a programme like that, I think everything these days is reduced to naira and kobo. But we have so many intelligent, talented, gifted people out there who need to be encouraged.
.
.
There are so many people who have invented things in this country, who exactly is encouraging them? We talk about corporate social responsibility, what exactly is the CSR of the companies who make money in this country? .
.
A young man at the time I watched the programme got a First Class from a university in Nigeria and he was given a cheque of N100,000, and a person who was cooped up in a place for three months gets N30 million.” 📸: TheNation – #Instablog

Pastor Joshua Mone was on Thursday remanded in prison by a Magistrate Court sitting in Ekpan-Warri, #DeltaState, for alleged rape and indecent assault.

According to theNigerianlawyer.com, the General Overseer of Voice of Liberty Church is facing a three count charge bothering on rape, indecent assault and obtaining by false pretence of a member of his congregation, Miss Ojaruwedae Emarieta.

In the suit with Charge No: MEK/62c/2019, Prosecuting counsel informed the court that “the defendant allegedly deceived the said victim that he wanted to see a fellow pastor requesting her to accompany him.

The unsuspecting victim followed him without suspecting any foul-play. He took her to Jovi Garden located at Udu road, where he allegedly put a certain substance in her drink which left her drowsy and he allegedly raped her. .

When she regained consciousness he threatened her that if she reports to anybody she was going to die and that the person she reports to will die also. He, thereafter, obtained monies from her regularly under the guise of sowing seeds.”

The Magistrate ordered that Joshua be remanded in prison custody and then adjourned the matter till October, 15, 2019, for a return date and for filling of information.

On Thursday, the House of Representatives passed a bill which seeks to prohibit and criminalize imposition of estimated billing by the electricity distribution companies (DISCOs).

The lawmakers stressed the need for the DISCOs to provide compulsorily install prepaid meters to all power consumers across the country.

In his explanation, Hon Gbajabiamila, who sponsored the bill, stated that estimated billing is a practice that is unlawful and highly fraudulent. .

He added that the excuse of the unavailability of electricity meters causing the estimated billing practice should be unacceptable to a people-sensitive House.

He said Nigeria is the only country where electricity consumers are made to pay for the service through estimated billing. He described the situation as shameful.

The Speaker said the estimated billing being used by electricity distribution companies (DisCos) was the biggest fraud in the history of the country.

When the proposed law is assented to by the President, it will become criminal for service providers to issue estimated bills, issuance of which would attract either a one-year jail term or a fine of N1m or both.

The proposed law would also compel a distribution company to provide prepaid meter to an applicant within 30 days, while barring the DISCOs from disconnecting the consumer after the 30-day period within which meter should be installed.

Sen. RochasOkorocha has said that the Senate must begin to make sacrifice and aid in cutting down the cost of governance by having just one Senatorial representative instead of three per state.

He said, “We must begin to make sacrifice and cut down our cost of governance by having just one (1) Senatorial representative instead of three (3) per state. We should fund the productive sector of our economy.

Here, we have three senators per state. In that National Assembly (House of Representatives) over there, we have 360 eligible human beings. This country must begin to make sacrifices and cut down the cost of governance.

I do not know what we are doing differently today in the 9th Senate from what we did in the 8th Senate and what we did in the 7th Senate, 6th Senate and so forth and so on. .

And if what we are doing today is similar to what we did in the 8th Senate be rest assured the product will be the same.”

Alagba, the 344-year-old tortoise in the palace of the Soun of Ogbomoso, #OyoState, is dead.

The scared tortoise which was the oldest in Africa, was sick for a few days before her death on Thursday.

Confirming the news of Alagba’s demise to the Nigerian Tribune, the Private Secretary to Oba Oyewumi, Toyin Ajamu, stressed that the tortoise, which attracted people from all over the world, will be greatly missed by everyone who came in contact with her during her lifetime.

According to Ajamu: “Alagba had lived in the palace for centuries. The tortoise played host to many monarchs in Ogbomoso in the past. Alagba became popular because Oba Oladunni Oyewumi, Soun of ogbomosoland, used his personal resources to cater for her well being.

The tortoise had two staff members of the palace dedicated to her. They provide food, health support and other logistics, so as to make sure she gets the best treatment. .

Often times, Kabiyesi shared great moments with Alagba. On a daily basis, Alagba, had tourists visiting her from different part of the world. The palace household, Ogbomoso community and stakeholders in the tourism sector are mourning Alagba’s passing.”

The palace secretary explained that plans were underway to preserve Alagba’s body for historical records.

Reposted from @cnn – The emaciated elephant in this photo is a 70-year-old female named Tikiri, according to the Save Elephant Foundation. The group says she works in the Esala Perahera festival in Kandy, Sri Lanka, and an elaborate costume hides her condition. “At this stage we are asking people to lobby the Sri Lankan government to take immediate action,” Save Elephant Foundation told CNN. Following the outcry over Tikiri, the elephant has been withdrawn from the closing parade, organizers said. But activists say authorities must act more broadly against such attractions.
