Graphic pic: Customs Officer baths woman with Acid

Posted: 19 May 2014 02:54 PM PDT

A Nigerian Custom officer named Mr Nwaeze who heads the Customs unit at Mosafejo Aradagun, has been accused of allegedly attacking  a woman identified as Ms Tope Fadipe with acid after an argument over money.
 
Sahara Reporters reports that Ms Fadipe, who served as a salesgirl at a local food business run by Mr Nwanze's family for 3 years, was attacked by an angry Nwaeze on Friday May 9th, after she argued with him when he accused of her of not remitting N50,000 into the business account.
 
After the acid attack, the matter was reported at the Badagry Police Station, and Mr. Nwaeze had boasted that no one could arrest him. On Saturday, the 10th of May, one day after the incident, Mr. Nwaeze was said to have appeared at the Police Station, and had returned shortly afterwards to show he is above arrest. Continue...
 
Currently, residents say, Nwaeze belched his car radio speakers loudly whenever driving in the street, with a carriage posting to show that he is above impunity since the May 9th incident.

A resident in the street told SaharaReporters that it is part of Mr. Nwaeze's forte, to "intimidate and oppress people with impunity," due to his status as a Customs Officer.

The victim, Tope Fadipe, is currently being treated for her severe burns at the Badagry General Hospital. Witnesses and doctors say her condition is worsening since that attack.

Saharareporters learned through a medical source that, Nwaeze has now tried to secretly collect Ms. Tope from the hospital, without giving off any hint what he wants to do with her.

Chibok girls: Gov Shettima replies Asari Dokubo, calls him a jester

Posted: 19 May 2014 10:51 AM PDT

Borno State Governor, Kashim Shettima has replied Asari Dokubo who has in recent times alleged that the missing Chibok girls is all a scam and the handiwork of the governor. In a statement by the Governor's spokesperson, Isa Gusau, Shettima described Dokubo as a jester who no serious minded Nigerian should take serious. The statement below...
"Governor Shettima is too serious minded to reply Asari Dokubo who is just a joker as most Nigerians regard him. As a onetime journalist covering the Niger Delta, I had come in direct contact with Asari when he organized a rally in support of late Gaddafi in Port Harcourt and also when he organized the 2011/2012 Isaac Boro lecture in Port Harcourt which he kept interrupting, taking over the microphone from people like respected lawyers like Festus Keyamo, intermittently speaking without protocol and without shame like a child. He is just a joke, no reasonable Nigerian takes him serious. He was reported saying Chibok abduction was a sham, I won't be surprised if by next week the same Asari Dokubo leads another rally to counter the one he just held. Last year, Asari was reported speaking against Presidency, then he changed tune now we don't know what happened but that is how he is, he uses the media for personal interest and some sort of blackmail." Continue...
"He wants to be regarded as a hero but I tell you that no one sees him as such in the Niger Delta that I had covered. He is trying to force unwilling public to see him different from who he is but like a say goes, 'you can fool some people all the time, you can fool all the people sometime but you cannot fool all the people all the time. Asari dubiously took advantage of Isaac Boro event which attracts participants to say what he said so that the procession would seem like a support base for his isolated opinion. I saw some pictures of some girls in one house displaying some placards, from the faces, I think he probably assembled some of his immediate and extended family members and gave them placards. One person wrote on all the cards, the same writing, all of which look like a sort of Mickey Mouse scene in cartoon series. How can Governor Shettima reply a jester, how can he respond to such a play by Asari that falls far below the standard of Nollywood when he is busy working very hard with all relevant bodies finding ways on how to secure the freedom of his and Borno's precious daughters in captivity?" Gusau said.
Gusau advised the President to distance himself from Asari...

It may be the most awesome wedding gift of all time ...Ray J is giving Kim Kardashian and Kanye West a $47K check ... representing 4 months of his 2014 profits from the epic porn tape with Kim.
It's breathtaking on 2 levels -- that Ray J has such humongous cajones, and that the tape is still raking in a fortune after 7 years.
Here's the breakdown of the wedding gift.  Mind you, this is just Ray J's cut: Continue...



-- January  $6,135.60
-- February $20,097.31

-- April $10,931.52
-- TOTAL:  $46,840.13

Now get this ... sources from Vivid Entertainment tell us the tape has grossed $50 MILLION!

Remember, we're told Kim gets AT LEAST as much as Ray J, though we don't know exactly how much.

We've reached out to Kim to see if she'll accept Ray's gift, but so far no word back. We're told ... if she doesn't want it he'll donate the money to her favorite charity.

"I foresaw Borno state govt hand in girl's abduction" Primate Ayodele

Posted: 19 May 2014 07:14 AM PDT

Speaking about the state of the nation, the Boko Haram menace and foreign intervention, Primate Elijah Babatunde Ayodele, the Founder/Spiritual Head of Inri Evangelical Church, Lagos, in a press statement released a few weeks ago said the Nigerian govt shouldn't trust America, that he foresaw Borno state government's hand in the abduction of Chibok girls and that a sect deadlier than  Boko Haram will rise. Excerpts from his predictions below...
"We have said it before that there would be foreign intervention in the fight against Boko Haram. We said it before that Nigerian Government was incapable of defeating the sect all alone. I still foresee Boko Haram attacking major government buildings and high rise buildings around Nigeria. Even Aso Rock is not safe. Boko Haram is not alone in the terror act. There are three major sects involved in fighting the government and what they are fighting for is the disintegration of Nigeria and people sponsoring the programme are within and outside the country and are in President Jonathan's government. Let the Govt take the warnings from God serious on all matters. Nigeria's Vice President, Namadi Sambo must be very careful so they would not sacrifice his office to stabilize the PDP. Continue...
"All of the Abducted Chibok School girls will not be released by Boko Haram. America knew the genesis of Boko Haram in Nigeria. Yes they will make some positive impacts but their intervention will not receive much results"
 
"I also foresaw the Borno State Government hand in the abduction of the girls. Boko Haram will be defeated but a deadlier sect which is now in Nigeria will cause more havoc than Boko Haram".
 
"We are still maintaining that Boko haram leader, Shekau, will not be captured alive but he will be killed in the battle front. God said that Boko Haram will be weakened spiritually and then they will be defeated physically".

Stealing is not corruption, says ICPC Chairman

Posted: 19 May 2014 03:55 AM PDT

The Independent Corrupt Practices Commission (ICPC) chairman, Mr. Ekpo Nta recently agreed to a statement made by President Jonathan during his May 4th media chat that, stealing is not corruption.
 
While addressing members of  the Council for the Regulation of Engineering in Nigeria, COREN, at the ICPC Headquarters' in Abuja, Mr Nta said there is a difference between stealing and corruption  and it is wrong to classify theft as corruption. He said that we should refer back to what we were taught about stealing and corruption in school
"Stealing is erroneously reported as corruption. We must go back to what we were taught at school to show that there are educated people in Nigeria. We must address issues as we were taught in school to do".
He likened the misunderstanding of stealing and corruption to the mindset of the ordinary Nigerian who believes a roadside mechanic is also an engineer. Really? These people are strange!!!

"I'm not a cooking kind of woman and my husband is fine with it' - Joke Silva

Posted: 19 May 2014 03:54 AM PDT

In a recent interview with City People magazine, Nollywood screen legend Joke Silva talked about her lack of cooking skills and other ways she takes care of her husband, screen legend, Olu Jacobs..
"I have never lied about this, I have never been 'a doing the cooking kind of woman'. When my husband met me, he knew. He was the one who used to do the cooking because he is good at it. I used to do the cooking when I felt like. Sometimes, it comes out to be a huge success and sometimes a failure. Some years ago, I cooked vegetables and it was terrible and my husband is such a gem, he ate it like that. It is not as if my mum didn't teach me. For my husband, cooking is a therapy and for me it is a chore and yet he will always tell you that I look after him so much, I do that in other ways. We have somebody who does the cooking. I have taught them to cook the way I like and we have people who do the general cleaning."
