70-year Old Rapes Best Friend's 9-year Old Daughter, Gives Her Staphylococcus Aureus

 
A 70-year-old Moses Okon of Ikot Eyo Street, Calabar, Cross River State, is now cooling his feet at the Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department, CIID, Police Headquarters, Calabar, over the rape of his best friend’s daughter, aged nine.
It was gathered that Mr. Okon, popularly known as Oyibo, and the victim’s father, one Mr. David Ekong, have been friends for more than a decade.
Vanguard learned that the victim (names withheld) had been living with Oyibo for some time with the approval of her father, who took custody of the victim after divorcing the mother. An eyewitness, who pleaded anonymity, told Vanguard that the relationship between Oyibo and his friend turned sour when he discovered that his best friend had been sleeping with his nine years old daughter.
The eyewitness added: “He has been doing it for long. The girl told us that Oyibo has done it three times to her. She said the last time, he gave her N20 and begged her not to tell anyone before pulling off her pants, closing her mouth with his hands and raping her.”
The suspect was earlier arrested by the State Housing Police Station and released, but after much pressure by Basic Rights Counsel, a child rights organisation, the matter is being handled directly by the Commissioner of Police, Mr. Ozi-Obeh Jimoh.
In a medical report Vanguard obtained, the victim was diagnosed to have been infected with Staphylococcus Aureus. “Patient in painful distress, yielded few growth of Staphylococcus aureus after 24 hours, walking funny, vulva inflammation, signs of obvious bruising, presence of semen in private part, hymen is broken,” the medical report read in part.
When contacted, the Commissioner of Police, Mr. Jimoh, confirmed that they have arrested Okon and he will be charged to court today. His words: “It is true. A case like that was reported to us and the medical examination and report has proved that there was defilement. The man will be charged to court tomorrow (today).”

Suicide Bomber Kills Six In Baghdad

 
A suicide bomber killed six people in western Baghdad on Sunday, a security spokesman said, a day after bomb and gun attacks hit a city north of the capital.
The bomber detonated an explosive belt in the Iskan area, also wounding 18 people, according to a statement from security spokesman Saad Maan.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the attack, but the Islamic State group frequently carries out suicide bombings targeting both civilians and security forces in Baghdad and other parts of the country.
The Baghdad attack came a day after militants killed 12 people in gun and bomb attacks claimed by IS in the city of Tikrit.
Iraqi forces are preparing for a push on Mosul, the last IS-held city in the country, after regaining much of the territory the jihadist group seized in June 2014.
But even as it loses ground, IS retains the ability to carry out deadly attacks in government-held areas, and is likely to increasingly turn to such insurgent tactics if it loses Mosul.

Schoolgirls Caught Pants Down In The Bush And Thoroughly Beaten As Lesbian Teacher Is Fingered

 
caught-pants-down-1
Some female pupils at a school who have been fighting for the love of a female teacher at the school, have been caught pants down engaging in lesbian s*x in the bush.
A female teacher at Zwangendaba High School in Matabeleland North of Zimbabwe, has been caught up in a lesbianism storm amid claims that some schoolgirls were fighting over her after she proposed love to them.
Matabeleland North Acting Deputy Provincial Education Director, Mrs Beatrice Manjere confirmed receiving a report on lesbianism activities at the school saying that the matter is under investigation.
“I can confirm that we received a report of that nature from Zwangendaba Secondary School. A report was made and because lesbianism is a very sensitive topic to deal with, we have assigned investigators to monitor the situation in the school,” said Mrs Manjere.
A source, who is a school development committee member, said the allegations of lesbianism at the school started when the teacher (name supplied) arrived at there two years ago.
“Parents are furious about this bad habit which has suddenly blossomed in the school since the arrival of that teacher resulting in girls constantly fighting over the teacher or their girl partners. She arrived at the school about two years ago and since then all hell broke loose, with most girls’ behaviour having taken a new twist.
“The teacher, who is in her twenties claims to be married but she has never been seen with her husband and now rumour says she’s in a process of divorcing the unidentified man.
“We took the matter twice to a district education officer, who is now retired (name supplied) but no measures were taken to rectify or investigate that. Last term, we held a hearing, with some provincial officials, where four pupils openly divulged what they had been doing with the teacher but nothing was done,” said a source.
A parent, Mr Mandla Mpofu said some girls have previously fought over her.
“When our children came home telling us what is happening, it all sounded like a movie but pupils have reached an extent of engaging in fist fights for the teacher who proposes love to many of them all at once,” said Mr Mpofu.
He added that some girls at the school were turning to lesbianism due to the teacher’s bad influence.
“Last year, some school boys found two Form Three girls ‘making love’ in the bush and they thoroughly beat them up and the one who acted like a man almost died. The parents of that girl, failed even to report the assault fearing that their child could be arrested.
“Girls are constantly fighting now. This is a very big embarrassment and our community is being spoken ill of and we demand that measures be taken to put this to end,” said Mr Mpofu.

"Two Million Nigerians Are Trapped In Boko Haram-Controlled Areas''- UN

 
About 2 million people are trapped in Nigeria’s North-Eastern areas still controlled by Boko Haram, and are facing serious humanitarian conditions, the United Nations has said.
This was disclosed Friday in Geneva, Switzerland, by UNICEF’s Chief of Nutrition in Nigeria, Arjan de Wagt, during a press briefing by the UN Information Service.
According to Mr. Wagt who spoke on telephone from Abuja, about 2 million people are still in areas which are inaccessible because of the security situation.
The 2 million people are in Borno State alone, he said.
Regarding Bama, he said there’s only access to the town of Bama and the IDP camp there, but not the other parts of the town.
He said the situation of the people trapped in Boko Haram-held areas was unknown, but that sometimes UNICEF managed to get a glimpse when IDPs from those areas came to more accessible areas.
UNICEF could then check their nutrition and health status, which was bad, he added.
Military success has helped to make more areas in the North East accessible for humanitarian assistance.
“Before April 2016, there was no access to most areas in Borno State because of the security situation,” he said.
But since April, access has progressively become possible to some of the other areas, he noted.
He however lamented that “In the newly-accessible areas, the levels of suffering and of malnutrition are very high. In some of those areas, there’s a severe acute malnutrition rate of 12 per cent, which is a level rarely seen. It is of a severity similar to that seen during the Horn of Africa crisis in 2011, in Somalia”.
Children face acute malnutrition
Mr. Wagt raised alarm over looming humanitarian disaster in the North East.
He said in Borno, Adamawa and Yobe States, there were 400,000 children “with severe acute malnutrition, and in Borno alone, 244,000 children are affected”.
He said it was the “worst level of malnutrition possible”, and the children were on “the brink of death”.
About one in five of those children were likely to die if they were not reached in time with specialized therapeutic foods, he warned.
He added that, if nothing was done, about 49,000 of the 244,000 children suffering from severe acute malnutrition in Borno State would die over the coming 12 months, translating to about 134 every day.
“Some 65,000 people are in famine-like conditions, the worst level of food insecurity, and facing starving to death for lack of food. It is a very unique situation in the world,” he said.
Addressing the problem
To address the situation, Mr. Wagt said, resources in financial human and organizational terms were needed.
“All partners – Governments, the UN, NGOs and the private sector and individuals had to work together to provide the support that was needed.”
He added that all people in accessible areas needed to be reached, and food aid needed to be brought to them.
“For the youngest children as well as pregnant and breastfeeding mothers, specialized, therapeutic, high nutrient food is required. If this is not addressed, more and more children would develop severe acute malnutrition,” he said.
He said UNICEF was supporting a nutrition programme and had recruited 1,500 community mobilizers going from house to house, from shelter to shelter, so that severely malnourished children could be linked to the health services so they could get treatment.

Revealed! EPL Club Held Transfer Talks With Messi, Neymar

 
It has been revealed that Manchester City held transfer talks with Barca superstar duo of Messi and Neymar but none wanted the move to the Etihad.
Upon Guardiola’s arrival at the Etihad, club owner Sheikh Mansour had promised to bankroll his rebuilding programme next summer but he also expects the Spaniard to win the title this term.
Reports now have it that the hierarchy at Manchester City consider David Silva and Sergio Aguero as core of the team if they improve their defensive abilities and also see Kevin De Bruyne as an important player but wanted to lure one of Barcelona’s superstars Lionel Messi or Neymar but both did not want to leave the Nou Camp.
Having started the season with a perfect record, Guardiola has come out to praise the qualities of Fernandinho whom he claimed can play across ten positions on the pitch while he is also “excited” to work with Raheem Sterling.
Earlier this summer, former Barca President John Laporta said the club were conspiring to sell Messi to Manchester City as the Argentine enters his final two years of a huge contract but Sporting director Robert Fernandez has said he is confident Messi will sign a new contract with the Catalan giants.

Ronaldo & Bale Miss Madrid Trip To Espanyol

 

Real Madrid will have to cope without Cristiano Ronaldo and Gareth Bale in the quest for a club-record 16th straight La Liga win after coach Zinedine Zidane said both will miss Sunday’s trip to Espanyol.
Bale was forced off early by a hip knock as Real came from behind in dramatic fashion to beat Sporting Lisbon 2-1 on Wednesday in the Champions League.
Ronaldo started Real’s fightback against his old club, but misses out this weekend due to illness.
“Cristiano won’t travel.
He has a problem with his throat and is not ready to play,” Zidane said on Saturday.
“We are not going to risk anything and much less so with Ronaldo.”
Zidane also stressed Madrid’s busy schedule with five games in the next two weeks was also behind his decision to leave out Bale.
“He suffered a heavy blow (on Wednesday) so we won’t risk anything. All the players want to play, but we have a lot of games,” added Zidane.
“If Gareth gets another knock on the same area he could be out for 10 days or more. I prefer that he is 100 percent for Wednesday (against Villarreal).”
Zidane hinted that James Rodriguez may finally get his chance to start for the first time this season in the absence of Ronaldo and Bale after impressing as a substitute against Sporting.

Diego Costa Admits He Hardly Controls His Emotions On The Pitch

 
Chelsea centre forward, Diego Costa admits he finds it hard to contain his emotions on the pitch if things do not go his way as he hates to lose.
The Spain forward has been booked three times in the Blues’ first four Premier League games this season and has often been criticised for his attitude on the pitch.
But the 27-year-old feels his occasionally petulant display on the pitch is all down to his desire to win.
The Brazil born striker is appearing rejuvenated under the leadership of new Chelsea boss, Antonio Conte.
Costa told Chelsea’s official magazine, “When we go to the pitch, we want to win, that’s all we want to do. And when the game finishes, if you win, you go home happy.”
“If I lose a game, it’s a different frame of mind when I finish the match. I go home and I feel upset. So you always have to know that you are going to leave everything on the pitch, every drop of sweat, to help the team win the game.
“I don’t like losing, I don’t like to be in a losing position and I show this a lot. I demonstrate on the pitch.
“I believe my colleagues feel the same about losing, but everyone shows it differently on the pitch and I show a lot of spirit in not wanting to lose a game. We always have to show our character on the pitch, and I show my feelings.”

(Highlights) Chelsea 1 - 2 liverpool Premier Legue 2016/17

 
Jurgen Klopp’s men took an impressive victory in west London, and the highlight of the game was a thunderbolt from the England international in the first half
Jordan Henderson scored a sensational goal as Liverpool inflicted the first defeat of Antonio Conte’s Chelsea reign with a 2-1 Premier League victory at Stamford Bridge.
A dominant first-half performance from Liverpool was capped by Henderson picking out the top-right corner with a stunning, looping effort from 25 yards in the 36th minute, which ultimately proved enough to end Conte’s unbeaten start in his sixth match at the helm.
An error from Gary Cahill preceded Henderson’s wonder-strike, and Conte will have been disappointed to see his defence prove vulnerable with David Luiz making his second Chelsea debut following his deadline-day move back from Paris Saint-Germain in place of John Terry.
Diego Costa earned the Blues a point away at Swansea City last weekend and he initiated another comeback attempt with his sixth goal in as many Premier League appearances with 29 minutes remaining.

Mourinho Wants To Bring £60m-Rated Playmaker To Man Utd

 
José Mourinho has promised Real Madrid flop James Rodríguez a ‘major role’ at Manchester United should he jump shop to the Premier League, according to reports.
The Colombian international has yet to start a game for Real Madrid this season with Zinedine Zidane limiting Rodríguez to only three substitute appearances totaling 47 minutes in La Liga and the UEFA Champions League combined.
The former-FC Porto and AS Monaco star has still managed to record two assists during his cameo appearances.
Manchester United are believed to be keen on bringing the playmaker to England over the summer, whilst Premier League rivals Chelsea are also being strongly linked to the 25-year-old.
Spanish website Don Balon are claiming that United are planning to make an offer next summer after failing to come to an agreement with Real Madrid in the last transfer window.
James Rodríguez was valued at £60 million ,slightly less than the £71 million the La Liga giants splashed out on the attacking midfielder after winning the Golden Boot at the 2014 World Cup.
Rodríguez still has four years left on his contract at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium.

Okonjo-Iweala Mighty Never Be Guilty Of Corruption,Because She Always Protected Herself- Joda Says

 
Ahmed Joda, the chairman of President Muhammadu Buhari’s transition committee, says Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, former minister of finance, might never be found guilty of corruption.
Joda said this to journalists in Yola, the capital city of Adamawa state, on Tuesday.
He said that while Okonjo-Iweala knew of the shady activities going on, she always sought the approval of Goodluck Jonathan, the former president, thereby protecting herself from prosecution.
Joda said it was alarming that Okonjo-Iweala knew about the spate of corruption going on during the past regime, but held onto her job, presiding over fraudulent withdrawals from the economy.
“Okonjo-Iweala is a professional and she guarded herself. Whenever, they said this happened, she was able to produce papers to say, ‘Look, we had a meeting presided over by the president and attended by the national security adviser and others’.


“And she would go back and write the president and say, ‘I have received a request to release so many billions in accordance with our minutes. Your Excellency, if you will approve.’ And His Excellency would approve it. So, she covered herself, thus you can’t pin anything on her.”

No Shaking!! Military Dismisses Boko Haram Video As "Complete Joke" And Photoshop

 
The Military yesterday dismissed a new video released by militant Boko Haram sect, showing thousands of its members at three different locations during the Sallah celebration. But the military dismissed the video as “cut and paste”, saying it is a complete sign of weakness and it poses no threat to Nigerians.
The Acting Director, Defence Information, Brig.-Gen. Rabe Abubakar, who spoke to our correspondent yesterday, said the video was the same the terrorist group used in 2014.
He said: “It was the same video they used in 2014; this time around, they removed Shekau from it. This is cut and paste of an old video to make it look like new. Anything is possible in technology.
“The only ground the Boko Haram Terrorists (BHT) can go into and hide and pretend to be alive is the social media because it is everybody’s home without tracing the source.
“I believe the issue of the group is near ending by the special grace of God, The video is a complete sign of weakness and poses no threat to us.
“The so-called video is an attempt by the remnants to remind us that there was once Boko Haram elements. Empty vessels make the loudest noise.”
The Defence spokesman also said that the issue of the threat to President Muhammadu Buhari from the video is “complete joke.”
Describing the video as “a total washout”, Abubakar reinforced the troops’ commitment to the eradication of the insurgency in the Northeast.
“Issue of threat to PMB (President Muhammadu Buhari) is a complete joke and the dream of the century, therefore the entire clip is a washout. Everybody is appreciative of our feat against BHT, no doubt about it and they know too.
“We reiterate our total commitment and resilience in stamping them out, people shouldn’t be deceived by their use of photoshop,” the military spokesman said.

While the two children were recovered dead from the incident which happened at the early hours of Saturday at their house along Trade Fair, Old Airport area of Sokoto, their mother later died on Sunday.
The fire was said to have been caused by an electrical fault that emanated within the apartment while powering their generating set.

The two children were identified as her nine years old son and nephew.
According to eyewitnesses, the burning roof suddenly collapsed on the deceased woman as she attempted taking the children to a safer place.

Houseboy, Driver's Names Used To Open Bank Accounts For Patience Jonathan's Dollars

 
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has arrested four domestic servants, including a driver and a houseboy, whose names were used to open bank accounts for Mrs Dame Patience Jonathan, the wife of former President Goodluck Jonathan.
Sources within the anti-graft agency said on Sunday that the companies’ accounts were opened at one of the new generational banks.
The companies are Pluto Property and Investment Company Limited, Seagate Property Development and Investment Company Limited, Trans Ocean Property and Investment Company Limited and Globus Integrated Service Limited.
The four companies’ accounts, which have since been frozen by the EFCC, have a balance of about $15m while another account, which bears Patience Jonathan’s name, has $5m.
Mr. Sammie Somiari, who deposed to an affidavit on behalf of the ex-President’s wife, said the former First Lady was the owner of the money in the accounts.
She had revealed that she gave millions of dollars to the then Special Adviser to the President on Domestic Affairs, Waripamowei Dudafa, to open accounts for her.
Somiari, however, claimed that Dudafa opened five accounts for Patience and that only one of the accounts was in her name, while the other four were opened in the names of companies belonging to Dudafa.
A detective at the EFCC, however, revealed that Dudafa used his domestic servants’ names to open the four other accounts and then deposited the money into the accounts.
The operative added, “We were investigating Dudafa when we stumbled on those four companies’ domiciliary accounts opened at Skye Bank with a balance of about $15m. On further investigation, we were able to identify the directors of the companies.
“When we detained the directors, we found out that they were Dudafa’s domestic servants. One of them was a houseboy while another one was a driver. Their photographs were used in opening the accounts and their signatures were forged.
“We found out that these domestic servants were completely innocent because they had no access to the accounts. We have since released them. The sole signatory to the accounts was Patience Jonathan and she was issued with a special card, which is accepted worldwide. She has a separate account, which was opened in her name and has a balance of $5m.”
The detective said a lawyer, Amajuoyi Briggs, who allegedly helped Dudafa to perpetrate the fraud, would also be arraigned.

Black Man Is Shit & Killed By Police For Refusing To Drop Pocket Knife

 
An African American man who was said to be eating chicken wings in the backyard of his home while holding a pocket knife was shot and killed by policeman in southern Florida. The incident occurred at around 10:00 p.m. on Friday.
Gregory Frazier, 55, was reportedly using a small pocket knife to eat near his home in Pompano Beach when he was confronted by two men from the Broward Country Sheriff’s Office.
According to the Broward Palm Beach New Times, the officers were called to the home by Frazier’s sister who had witnessed a verbal altercation between Frazier and her daughter.
The argument between Frazier and his niece ended when the officers arrived. Still, they told Frazier to get down on the ground knowing that he had a knife.
‘Leave me alone,’ Frazier is reported to have replied. Soon after, both of the deputies opened fire and killed him, according to Local 10 News.
Neighbors say that the officers shot him six times in the back, though this has yet to be confirmed.
Both of the deputies have been placed on administrative leave pending the results of an investigation.
‘I never would have called the cops if I’d known this was going to happen,’ Deborah Frazier, the victim’s sister, says. ‘They just came in and started shooting right away.’
