House Of Reps Trash Bill To Allow Benefit Payment to Unemployed Graduates In Nigeria




THE House of Representatives, on Wednesday, rejected a bill that sought to provide monetary incentives for unemployed graduates in the country, pending the time they would be employed.

The bill, sponsored by Honourable Arua Arunsi, had sought to amend the National Directorate of Employment (NDE) Laws 2004, by creating specific functions and objectives to cater for unemployed graduates of tertiary institutions.

It was billed for second reading on Wednesday, but lawmakers unanimously kicked against it.

Honourable Arunsi had claimed that the objective of the bill was to address the problems being faced by unemployed graduates between the ages of 18 and 35 years.

He had suggested through the bill that certain amount of allowances should be given to registered unemployed graduates in the country.

Chairman, Committee on Labour, Employment and  Productivity, Honourable Essien Ayi, maintained that  there was no need for the bill, as an earlier bill on National Social Insurance Trust Find (NSITF) had already addressed the issue of stipends, adding that if this should scale through, it would disallow the organisation from carrying out its duties.

Honourable Ibrahim El-sudi, while faulting the bill, said there was nothing new in it, adding that similar programme for unemployed graduates was already in existence at the NDE.

On his part, Honourable James Faleke maintained that providing such monetary incentive could only compound the economy challenges facing the country, saying since the Nigerian economy was not production-based, industrial revival efforts would be defeated.

22-Year Old Nigerian Boy Caught With Drugs At MMIA (PICTURED)




A 22-year-old Nigerian, Jude Ejikonye Ilechukwu who resides in Thailand was recently apprehended by men of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, NDLEA, with 1.295kg of substance discovered to be methamphetamine.

Ilechukwu was arrested at the international wing of the Murtala Mohammed International Airport, Lagos. The drug which was concealed inside his luggage, was detected during the screening of passengers on Ethiopian Airline at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos.

The MMIA Commander of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, Hamza Umar, said the drug was carefully hidden in the suspects’ luggage.

Umar said: “Like several factory modes of drug concealment, we had to practically cut the bag open to detect the drugs.

“Ordinarily, when you open the bag, you will not see the drug.

“We found two brown parcels of drugs weighing 1.295kg.”

According to Ilechukwu, he was lured into the drug deal by a friend he met in Thailand.

In his words: “I am a business man. I relocated to Thailand last year where I buy goods and send to Nigeria.

“It was in Thailand that I met a man who introduced me into drug business. He gave my number to his partner in Lagos who lodged me in a hotel.

“They made me to contribute N750,000 as my contribution and promised me a handsome reward on arrival in Thailand.

“My focus was on the profit that will accrue to me. It was when I was arrested that I realised I had made a big mistake.”

The suspect attended Okija Community Primary School and Okija Grammar School, Anambra State before he started business.

He will soon be charged to court.

Mourning Parents Find D***d Baby Alive In The Mortuary


A couple didn’t know how to respond after finding their dead baby alive in a hospital morgue. 

Five doctors at Perrando Hospital, in northern Argentina have been suspended for the declaration of a stillbirth and having the baby nailed inside a coffin and placing it in a cold room in the hospital morgue for 12 hours, the Argentina news media reported. 

The boy, who was named Luz Milagros, or “Light Miracle”, was found in a coffin in the hospital in Chaco, a half a day after his birth. 

“We were told the baby had hypothermia and that this may have weakened her heart, which was already low before birth,” said the baby’s father, Fabian Veron, who is 31 years old. 

The baby’s mother, Analia Bouter, 29, who has four children, said she never had the chance to say goodbye to her child, since she was sedated during birth, which came three months early.


The grieving mother and father visited the hospital morgue 12 hours later. The couple was taken to a cold room and shown a small coffin that was nailed shut. 

“My husband used a lever and opened the coffin,” said Bouter. 

The mother, hoping to find closure, instead came face to face with her daughter, who was wrapped in a white blanket and it looked as if she was just waking up, the mother said. The baby stretched and let out a scream. 

The mother of five children, said she fell to her knees. “This is a message from God, a miracle,” she told the news media. 

Rafael Sabatinelli, the Assistant Secretary for Health of the province of Chaco, Argentina, told the news media, that his office had opened an investigation into the matter.

Justice Mobolaji Ojo of Ogun State High Court sitting in Otta has fixed March 27, 2013 for Judgement in the suit filed by Vwamhi Longji Felix, challenging his illegal expulsion by the Covenant University, for allegedly watching p00rn00graphy and  secular music on his laptop.

Britain warns against travel to North after Islamist raids




Britain has warned its citizens in Nigeria to stay away from northern parts of the country where Islamist militants have threatened to attack and abduct nationals from Western countries.

The warning came against the background of the threats by Islamist groups which posted their threats on the Internet.

A statement from the foreign office, advised “against all-but-essential travel” to Kaduna, Kano, Jigawa and Katsina states.

Britain upped its travel risk ratings on Wednesday, advising against any travel to Bauchi State and Okene city in southern Kogi State where militants last month attacked Nigerian troops who were bound for Mali to counter an Islamist insurgency.

Britain put Ansaru on its official “terrorist group” list in November , saying it was aligned with al Qaeda and was behind the abduction of a Briton and an Italian killed last year during a failed rescue attempt.

Western governments are concerned the militants may link up with groups elsewhere in the region, including al Qaeda’s North African wing AQIM, especially given the conflict in nearby Mali. France sent troops to Mali last month to help oust Islamist rebels.



APC, Merger Party, Is Run Like A Secret Cult




Stalwarts of the PDP and those of the yet-to-be-registered All Progressives Congress, APC again were at each other’s throats on Wednesday with the PDP saying the APC is being run like a cult.

“Most of the people in APC now are original members of the PDP and I can assure you that we have commenced talks to bring them back to where they originally belonged, which is the PDP. 

“They are coming back, because some of them have told me that their aspirations may not be met in the APC because of the burning ambitions of some individual members. They don’t want a party that is being run like a cult.”

Those were the words of the National Chairman of the PDP, Bamangar Tukur, in a chat with journalists.

In his reaction, a spokesman for one of the parties promoting the APC, Rotimi Fashakin, however called the PDP “an empire of lies.” He said the ruling party is filled with faulty characters.

“When people leave the PDP it is difficult to go back. If a former Vice-President left the PDP and since his return it has been a struggle to win even his ward, you know which party is run like a cult. Is it APC that is yet to be a party or the PDP?” Fashakin asked.

S**x Scandal Rocks Delta State Institution; 2 Lecturers Suspended




Litanies of extortions and s***x scandals have hit the Delta State Polytechnic Ozoro, leaving two of its lecturers suspended by the school authorities. There suspension was as a result of extortion and s***x romps allegedly perpetrated by the lecturers.

Findings revealed that extortion and s**x for grade are rampant among the lecturers who display condoms before the female students during negotiations for s***x while the male students were made to pay between N5, 000 and N10, 000 to get favourable grades.

The suspended lecturers were allegedly caught outside the school premises where they had gone to have s****x with two new female students and having satisfied their libido, they were coming out when they ran into the rector who had laid siege on them based on a tip-off.

The rector disclosed that the lecturers upon interrogation admitted to the act while the school resolved to place them on suspension to serve as a deterrent to others.

According to those who know, sex between the female students and the lecturers has been common and had become the means to guarantee success in examinations.

Enough Of This Oppression And Injustice Against Igbo Traders In Lagos State




It is a shame that these traders' shops are locked up, and they are barred from collecting goods from their shops for outside supplies and wickedly running a campaign to brand them, 'Bakkasi boys'.

I have personally and officially followed closely, the case of Ladipo market, Mushin LGA Lagos. I assert that the closing down of Ladipo market by the Lagos State Government and the arrest, detention and dehumanizing of Igbo traders in that market is a clear case of oppression and injustice by powerful, primordial forces intent on dislodging the traders, dispossessing them of their assets and taking over a market they built with their own sweat and resources.

This is the culmination of a long-drawn scheme and ceaseless attempts by these self-serving and base individuals and forces to forcefully and illegally throw out the traders and take over their market, in utter violation of subsisting agreements that the traders will run the market for a specified period of time having spent their money constructing structures in the market.

The claims of 'environmental degradation','obstruction of traffic and drainage' etc are fraudulent pretext and sheer subterfuge for what is apparently a case of ethnic persecution fueled by hatred and the individual avarice of some people who have over the years nursed the ambition to take over the market- and have on several occasions- and up to December 2012, used both the police and thugs to harass, intimidate, hound and even made attempts on the lives of the leadership and members of the traders association. 

A section of the media has also been employed to propagate falsehood in furtherance of the dubious agenda of the masterminds of this wicked act. 
Those innocent traders branded 'Bakkasi boys' and currently detained by the police must be released. The issues leading to, and surrounding, the closure of the market should be transparently investigated and truth and justice must prevail!

Tony Anenih Elected PDP BOT Chairman


Abuja — THE National leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) yesterday described the election of former Chairman of Board of Trustees, BoT, Tony Anenih into the office of Chairman of the board as a bold step towards ensuring peace and harmony within the ranks of the Party.
In a statement signed by PDP National Publicity Secretary, Chief Olisa Metuh, the PDP however expressed confidence that Chief Anenih's antecedents as a mobilizer and consensus builder over the years will contribute to the long term stability of the Party.
Metuh said, "Chief Anenih's tireless participation and critical role in the formation of the PDP places him in good stead to provide wise counsel and direct the influential Board of Trustees to follow the noble ideals of the founders of the Party.
His wealth of experience and acclaimed reputation as a democrat and consensus builder are assets that the Party needs at this critical point in our democratic evolution.
" Chief Anenih's unanimous election by all members of the Board of Trustees has disappointed opposition elements and doomsday prophets who expected the process to result in rancor and acrimony.
"This is yet another signal that the PDP is ever united and ready to overcome all perceived obstacles in our drive to provide focused leadership and service to the people of Nigeria.
"PDP calls all Party members across board to give maximum cooperation to the new chairman of the BOT who has himself pledged to broaden the spread of the umbrella to accommodate all tendencies."

Lagos explosion: Police arrest suspected mastermind




An alleged mastermind and prime suspect of Monday bomb explosion at Miracle Sand Beach in Amuwo Odofin Local Government Area of Lagos State,which killed the chairman of  Sand Dredgers Association, Chief Oladele Pius, and injured a Police Inspector,  has been arrested.


Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Mr Umar Manko at the scene of the blast
The suspect whose identity could not be ascertained was alleged to have orchestrated the explosion with the help of nine other persons. Surprisingly, he was discovered to be one of the deceased oldest staff.

Vanguard gathered that he was arrested at the scene of the blast, yesterday, while retrieving some wires buried under the sand, suspected to have been  connected to the explosive device which rocked the area.

None, at first, raised an eyebrow when he was  sighted loitering around the explosion scene, which has been vacated by the deceased colleagues. But all of a sudden, a man later discovered to be an undercover policeman reportedly appeared from nowhere and apprehended him with the wires.

Although it could not be ascertained what his mission was, Police sources hinted that it could have been a ploy to further hinder the already difficult attempt by bomb experts to ascertain  the type of explosives used.

Effort to reach the Lagos State Police Command Public Relations Officer, Ngozi Braide, on the arrest failed. But sources at the Police Headquarters, confirmed the arrest, hinting that investigation at the end  would ascertain the real position.

Suspect names 9 accomplices

 It was also gathered that during interrogation, the suspect mentioned nine other persons as his accomplices. At press time, it was gathered that the investigative team headed by the Area ‘E’ Commander, Mr Dan Okoro, an Assistant Commissioner of Police, was on the trail of the suspects mentioned. It was, however, said that some of them had bolted.

“Yes, it is true that we are holding someone in connection with Monday’s explosion.  We are still quizzing him. From the way he is talking, he looks suspicious. But we cannot outrightly state whether he is the prime suspect or not now until investigation is concluded,” Police sources told Vanguard yesterday.

Youths plan protest

Meanwhile, youths and beneficiaries of the late Oladele’s kind gesture still throng his apartment.

When Vanguard visited, the youths were planning to stage a peaceful protest to Alausa to expressed their displeasure at the Lagos State Police Command position that an electrical fault caused the death of their benefactor and also to appeal to Governor Babatunde Fashola to prevail on the Police to fish out perpetrators of the dastardly act.   They even deprived some policemen from entering the deceased duplex

However, family members o f the late Oladele have  reportedly started making arrangement on his interment.

How we saved Dasuki IBB, from assassins




The Department of State Security, DSS, yesterday narrated how its operatives saved former Military President, General Ibrahim Babangida and the deposed Sultan of Sokoto, Ibrahim Dasuki, from being assassinated by Iranian-trained Nigerian terrorists.

Deputy Director, Public Relations of the DSS, Marilyn Ogar who paraded the Iranian-trained Nigerian terrorists yesterday in Abuja said: “General Babangida and Alhaji Dasuki were among prominent Nigerians targeted by the group for elimination because they were said to be showing support for Israel and the United States of America”.

The 50-year-old local leader of the Shiite Sect in Ilorin, Kwara State, Abdullahi Mustapha Berende, who was arrested last December before he could execute his deadly act, was paraded by the DSS in Abuja, yesterday. He was said to have been trained and funded by elements with strong connections in international terrorist activities.

Berende, the DSS said, was commissioned by his sponsors to identify Nigerians and institutions sympathetic to Israeli and American interests in Nigeria for possible attack, was paraded with two of his accomplices – Sulaiman Olayinka Saka and Saheed Aderemi Adewumi while the third suspect, Bunyamin Yusuf, is still at large.

Mastermind trained in the production of IEDs

According to Marilyn Ogar, “investigation shows that Berende gained admission in 2006 to study a six-month course in Modern Shia Islamic Teaching (Da’awa) at Imam Khomeni University Iran and was thereafter recruited by some Iranian elements when he returned for further studies in 2011 and trained in the use of AK-47 assault rifle, pistols, production of Improvised Explosive Devices, IEDs.

“Upon his return to Nigeria, Berende was invited by his sponsors for further briefing in 2012 and asked to establish a terrorist cell in the South-West part of Nigeria with specific emphasis on Lagos.

“In a bid to set up the terrorist centre, Berende recruited Sulaiman Saka, Saheed Adewumi and Bunyamin Yusuf to assist him in accomplishing the tasks.

“Part of the deadly group’s brief included identifying and gathering intelligence on public places and prominent places frequented by Americans and Israelis to facilitate their attack by Iranian terrorists and providing specific details on US agencies such as USAID, Max, Zim International Shipping Company, A.A. Consulting, Peace Corps and the Jewish Cultural Centre in Lagos.

“The suspected terrorist was given $24,000 and E3,500 as well as coded names such as “Uncle” for Israel and “Aunt” for the United States of America by his Iranian handlers so as to facilitate their dastardly mission in Nigeria.

“Berende confessed that Lagos was chosen for attack because the Iranians believe that Israel has an intelligence facility in the area for spying on Iran and that he personally took pictures of the Israeli Cultural Centre in Ikoyi and forwarded them to his sponsors in Iran.

“The suspect added that in a bid to cover up his malevolent activity in Lagos, his handlers offered him financial support to establish a small business as a decoy”.

Berende regretted that they could not carry out their wicked act before they were apprehended and asked for forgiveness, adding that he would assist the security agencies to work for a safe, peaceful and united Nigeria.

Ogar, however, said the suspects will soon be arraigned in court, and charged with engaging in heinous crimes against Nigeria and the people.

“From the foregoing, there is conclusive evidence that Berende in collaboration with his Iranian handlers were involved in grievous crimes against the national security of this country. Accordingly, Berende and his accomplices will be charged to court soon,” Ogar said.

Senior Professor Arrested with $1m Cash at Lagos Airport



Men of the Nigeria Customs Service, on Wednesday intercepted a top Nigerian professor carrying $1 million cash at the Muritala Muhammed Airport on his way to Kenya.

The Customs Area Comptroller at the airport, Charles Edike, disclosed that the rogue professor had been handed over to the EFCC for investigation and prosecution.

The senior professor [names withheld] was said to have declared the money to customs officers at the airport, but “the source of the money was not clear.”

“He claimed to be the director of a company, A-Z Petroleum. He said he was carrying the money to Kenya to settle a dispute with a community over oil blocks. We were not comfortable with what he said, we have handed him over to the EFCC,” Mr. Edike said.

Olufamous.com gathered from a source that preliminary findings indicated that the Prof may not be telling the truth as the money is likely owned by a politician he has connections with.

Shocking! Powerful Men Like Drug Barons Stealing Crude Oil in Nigeria



Instead of going to European and other foreign countries to seek for help on how to tackle crude oil theft, the Goodluck Jonathan government has been advised to be bold and move against “principalities and powers in high places,” who are responsible for crude oil theft in Nigeria.

This revelation came from an insider, the Managing Director of Shell Petroleum Development Company, Mr. Mutiu Sunmonu, in Abuja on Wednesday.

Sunmonu, who spoke at the ongoing Nigeria Oil and Gas 2013 Exhibition and Conference, compared the stolen crude deal to the drug business with couriers, small dealers and sponsors.

Sunmonu said like the deadly drug business, criminals who sabotaged oil pipelines were working for strong men that should be found out and dealt with of the government is serious.

“The truth is that the small criminals in the creeks of Niger Delta bursting pipelines and stealing crude oil are not working for themselves. Like the drug cartels around the world, they are being sponsored by big principalities and powers in high places, which the government should go against if the fight against crude oil theft is to be won,” he said.

The Shell boss said advised those in government to tackle poverty among Nigerians, adding that if this was taken care of, the problem would have been half solved, as the perpetrators would not have any reason to allow themselves to be used to steal the country’s commonwealth.

A poor couple who lived in a small village in Southern KENYA. They had only one son. Gave him the education they managed . Son graduated as an Engineer in the nearby University.
Eventually, got married to a rich girl. Initially, they lived with his parents in the village.

Soon the wife got tired of village life and persuaded the husband to move to the city leaving the old parents in the village.
As time passed by the husband saw an advert in the newspaper about a vacancy in Juba (Sudan).

The Mother prayed for him a blessing and told him not to forget them.
He was successful and lived in Juba for years with his wife. 
Regularly he used to send money to parents. Eventually with time he stopped and forgot about his parents ever existed.
Every sunday he went to church to pray God and immediately after that he used to see someone telling him in a dream that his Prayer was not accepted.

One day he related story to his Pastor who advised him to go back to Kenya to visit his parents. 
The man flew to Sudan and reached the boundary of the village. Everything had changed. He could not locate his parents' house.

He asked a young boy about the where abouts of his parents.
The boy directed the man to a house and said:
"In this house lives an old blind lady who lost her husband five years ago. I also hear people saying that, She has a son who migrated to Sudan 40 years ago and never came back again." the boy continued, "The Old lady has been crying, longing to see his son"

Son kept quiet and enterered the home and finds his mother on the bed. He tip-toed as not to wake her up.
He hears the mother whispering or mumbling something. He gets closer to hear her voice. This is what the mother was saying:
"God ! I am now very old and blind. My husband just died. There is NO HUSBAND to lower me in my grave when I die. So please send my only son to fullfill my last wish. "
