| AY, Seyilaw & Elenu join Peak in nourishing Nigerians Posted: 23 May 2016 01:12 PM PDT Small things can indeed have great impact and this is evident from Peak Milk, Nigeria's Number 1 milk. With the Peak Wazobia Pack, Peak Milk is committed to providing and making accessible quality dairy nutrition at an affordable price in spite of the economic situation in the country. Peak Wazobia Pack was introduced to make Rich & Creamy Peak evaporated milk, accessible to all Nigeria. Whether we live in towns or villages, or we work in offices or study in schools, North or South, East or West, we all need complete and quality nutrition. That is the Peak Wazobia story; accessibility to quality nutrition. In a bid to reaffirm its position as a brand to beat to consumers, Peak Wazobia has strategically chosen a delivery medium that effectively dramatizes the importance of Quality over Quantity. The series of skits which features award-winning comedians Ay, Seyilaw and Elenu pits Peak Wazobia against other milk brands with the creative finesse that can only be showcased when you put AY, Seyilaw and Elenu in the same room. Peak believes Nigerians should never settle for less; we are resilient people; and in our pursuit of excellence in our day to day lives, we shouldn't compromise especially on the quality especially that of our food. This is an equally important part of healthy living. We must continually strive for quality instead of accepting lowering our standards or expectations because of the challenges that face us. This is the recipe for success--- build a worthy life never settling for less and you'll Definitely REACH YOUR PEAK |

| Update: Photos of the Nigerian woman, Obiamaka Aduba, who was allegedly strangled by her husband Posted: 23 May 2016 09:47 AM PDT   These are photos of 26-year-old Obiamaka Aduba who was allegedly strangled by her husband, Anthony Lopez, 31. The photos obtained by the Advance from her Facebook page, one taken inside and another outside -- depict Aduba with long dark hair and a serious look on her face.  Arraigned in Richmond County Supreme Court before Judge William Garnett on Sunday, Lopez plead not guilty to second degree murder. He was remanded on homicide without bail.  Lopez was also arraigned on criminal mischief charges from earlier this month. Published reports say Lopez beat her in the past and had her work as a prostitute. Her mother tried to help her, reports say, to no avail. When reached by telephone on Sunday, a woman who identified herself as Aduba's mother refused to talk about her daughter's brutal death. Lopez, 31, was apprehended in East Harlem's 23rd Precinct on Saturday. He was taken into custody following a manhunt using helicopters and dogs. Police said they found Lopez while acting on a tip and that he was arrested following a brief foot chase. They added that he had shaved his head to disguise his appearance. Cops had been searching for Lopez since early Friday morning when an off-duty police officer observed him wheeling Aduba's lifeless body on a metal dolly in Mariners Harbor, police said.     The officer reportedly recognized Lopez because he had arrested him in the past. The officer approached Lopez, who then dumped the body in front of a home on Post Lane and fled, according to cops. Aduba was wrapped in a sheet and had bruising on her body, but it wasn't immediately clear if the marks had anything to do with her death. The city medical examiner will determine the cause of death. Lopez has a lengthy criminal history, including 34 prior arrests, 15 of which are sealed. Those prior arrests include charges of robbery, theft and assault, police said. Also see more photos of the suspect. |

Officers tried to question him after spotting the body underneath the sheet but Lopez allegedly went on the run for 24 hours. NYPD detectives said he shaved his head to avoid detection but was arrested in Manhattan on Saturday. He has been charged with murder and concealing a human corpse.The medical examiner will determine what caused the death of Obiamaka, who police believe was Lopez's wife. It was not immediately known if Lopez has a lawyer. |

| Posted: 23 May 2016 09:35 AM PDT  The 49-year-old, a former Royal Malaysian Air Force technician, has been employed for 13 years by a firm servicing planes used by the VIPs, and was responsible for determining airworthiness. One unnamed security official said the man could have sabotaged an aircraft and smuggled weapons onto a plane. "The suspect is a senior technician whose responsibility was to check that an aircraft is safe for use. He is the person who gives the green light whether an aircraft is safe to take off or not," a security official was quoted as saying by the SCMP in its report Friday. The report said the aircraft maintenance company services chartered flights for "VVIPs" to travel domestic routes.According to the report, the man was arrested in late March together with 14 others in several location in Malaysia over suspected link with the IS terrorist group. It added that while 14 others have been charged in court, investigation into the engineer was still underway. "He has conducted religious classes where he propagated IS ideology," the official was quoted as saying. He is known to actively support IS via his Facebook account. He has shown IS videos on his mobile phone to his friends with the aim of promoting ISIS," the official added.Associate Professor Kumar Ramakrishna, head of policy studies at the S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies Singapore, who also spoke to SCMP, said the discovery raised concerns of "insider threat of transnational terrorism". "Such a person would have the ability, at least in theory, to sabotage an aircraft with VVIPs on board either through by deliberately tampering with onboard systems, causing them to fail in mid-flight, or by placing an improvised explosive device onboard, assuming that he can gain access to one, or has the ability make one himself," Kumar was quoted as saying.The news report said the engineer was the second suspect in the aviation industry to have been arrested over alleged support for IS. It said that, an armed auxiliary policeman was arrested last year at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport after he had allegedly helped the departure of his brother-in-law to Syria to fight for IS. The police have, so far, arrested more than 160 IS suspects and based on the news report, at least 19 Malaysians are known to have died in Iraq and Syria fighting for the IS cause.

| Posted: 23 May 2016 09:26 AM PDT  Police believe that as many as 100 people worked together using forged credit cards containing account details illegally obtained from a bank in South Africa. The attack which took place on the morning of May 15th appears to have been the brainchild of a criminal mastermind.The fake cards were used in 1400 ATM's and each person made a withdrawal 100,000 yen – the maximum allowed by the cash machines, they were able to cart away more than 1.4bn yen (US$12.7m) Japanese police have requested the assistance of the authorities in South Africa, via Interpol in establishing how the credit card information was obtained.Transaction data retrieved from the cash machines suggests that the criminals used information for 1,600 credit cards issued by the unnamed South African bank. According to local media, the daring operation went into place early on Sunday the 15th, the withdrawals began just after 5am with the last one made just before 8am the same day. Reports suggest that members of the gang may no longer be in Japan. They made sure to buy themselves enough time by using cards issued in another country and carrying out the theft on a day when banks won't be open, by the time the crime was discovered, they already had a good headstart.

| Dotche releases 'Gidi Wave': The best reverberating music yet to discover Posted: 23 May 2016 09:23 AM PDT  With the massive rate at which the local and international music industries are flooded these days with old and newly discovered talents, you might think you have seen or heard more than enough; but you had better not rush into that namby-pamby judgment because you are just about to get a feel of something that would take you on a newly discovered harmonious journey of unrivalled melody with Dotche's Gidi Wave.  It is undeniably going to be a new scintillating moment for music lovers in Nigeria and diaspora, as 22 year-old, University of Portsmouth graduate, Chukwubuikem Oguzie, otherwise known as Dotche, releases Gidi Wave, an afro pop, inspired by the contrasting life in Lagos. Produced by Oz Benzinho, Gidi Wave sure says what the average Lagosian experiences daily in the modern time. Though an indigent of Imo, Dotche was born and bred in Lagos, hence, his unique style of music is not devoid of the typical street lyrics of Eko that we have all come to savour.  When you are a graduate of Business Administration in one of the leading international Universities, you know all the etiquettes and terms that makes music a serious "business", away from the wishy-washy content and style we are subjected to in the supposed modern style of music. Dotche's "Gidi Wave" would continue to reverberate through your mind as you skim trough the ever bustling streets of Lagos.
