Nigerian Music Mogul, Don Jazzy has taken to social media to share his thoughts about the ongoing probe of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC).
In his post, the MAVINS BOSS stated that the great opportunity for the Niger Delta region to become a model for the entire nation was wasted by a few selfish people.
His post reads ;
THOUGHTS ON NDDC : I read through this to know the Senate’s resolution on the back of the #NDDCprobe in the National assembly and so many things come to mind. NDDC’s birth in 2000 during former president Obasanjo’s regime was supposed to right the wrongs made under OMPADEC in the 90s but here we are, still digging the hole we found ourselves after two decades.
Corruption has now become so endemic in our nation that we pilfer huge public funds with reckless abandon. We like to blame the elite and the govt for the sorry state of the country while so many of us are just waiting for our turns to be in public positions and become rogues. Let’s be clear here – 20 years of NDDC have had many key grassroots’ actors from the Niger Delta region who would supposedly understand the plight of the people. A very great opportunity for this region to be a model for the entire nation was wasted by a few selfish people whose intention was to convert Nigerians’ patrimony to their personal wealth. We keep talking about unimplemented and abandoned projects by unidentifed contractors that were not rightly procured.
Are our consciences so untouched that we continue treading this disastrous path even with the rising poverty level and the dearth of infrastructure across the country? How would future generations of Nigerians feel when they read this history of unabated rot? Ken Saro-Wiwa of blessed memory, lost his life for this region’s cause. If the dead could see after their demise, would he be proud of how things have turned out? NDDC, with this huge financial recklessness over the years, is just one of many government agencies. I can’t even imagine how surprised we would be if many other government agencies are perused this way? This isn’t just sad but also very unfortunate. My people, we have a very long way to go.
Blessing Ejika Ubi is a beautiful young lady, who would cause heads to turn, effortlessly; with an infectiously positive attitude, she is a delight to encounter.
One would find it hard to believe that, just a few months ago, Blessing was riddled with pungent sores and rotting skin, from head to toe, caused by an untraceable and untreatable skin disease.
Science had written it off as an undiagnosable condition; friends spread filthy rumors about her, claiming that she had gotten mixed up with diabolical men; her family had given up, as had she.
Her story caused tears to roll down my cheeks, this morning, because, as a medical practitioner, I see hundreds of written off cases like this and I know exactly what patients go through. It’s so pathetic, I can relate.
Unable to carry out normal daily tasks by herself or even have healthy relationships with people, Blessing experienced the most isolated moments of her life; the stigma of the repulsive odour and sores caused her to be treated like an outcast. It is safe to say that every door she knocked on, seeking healing, was shut in her face.
What can you do if your reality tells you that, as a young Nigerian woman, you must become accustomed to suffering pain, rejection, and isolation for the rest of your life?
What can one hold on to, when all hope is gone?
When pastors, scientists and every solution under the sun are powerless to help, some would beg for death to take them, but Sister Blessing begged God to preserves her life; just like Job in scriptures, she was helpless but not hopeless.
Blessing was at death’s door when she encountered the God of Prophet Jeremiah Omoto Fufeyin, Senior Prophet of Christ Mercyland Deliverance Ministry, during a healing service; and God opened a new door for her, one of supernatural healing!
Today, Blessing is completely healed, and cannot contain her joy. She is a new creature in Christ, indeed!
God bless Prophet Jeremiah Fufeyin! A man God has used extraordinarily to restore hope to lives across the globe, his compassion for humanity is worth emulating, his philanthropism is phenomenal, his deep dimensions of dream interpretation is divine and ground breaking.
It will be forever in history that during the height of the Corona Virus pandemic lockdown, this same Man Of God dished out over a Billion Naira to help humanity…Again, we say, God Bless Jeremiah Omoto Fufeyin.
A Zambian pastor in 2018 made a revelation in 2018, and it is currently trending on social media.
The pastor identified as Zipporah Mushala, stated that children who indulge in watching animated are bound for hell fire.
She spoke on how Television programmes negatively influence kids, with many of them ending up practicing or re-enacting what they watched whether the things are wrong or right.
Speaking further, the pastor claimed that secular TV also goes a long way in throwing people to hell as she claimed to have seen an 8-year-old girl in hell because she used makeup and fixed artificial hair.
In her words,
“I saw a boy who looked 10 who was there for insulting. He had learnt these insults from what he was watching on Television. I also noticed that he was wearing a shirt that had a demonic drawing of a Spiderman cartoon, but the Lord said this cartoon had been drawn in the image of a real demon in hell.
“The Lord had previously told Rachael and I that He doesn’t want His children wearing clothes with demonic drawings. There is a spirit in that drawing which controls their behavior when they wear that. The Lord had also told us that people should get rid of clothes with drawings such as skeletons and skulls and other demonic drawings because they have evil spirits.
“You can only pray for clothes WITHOUT demonic drawings and they get purified from any spells that were cast on them while making them. The Lord said that for clothes with demonic drawings, these must be burnt. “The Lord has several times warned that secular Tv is leading people to hell. Secular Tv is any non-Christian program for example, all worldly movies including family movies, soap operas, wrestling, worldly cartoons for example like those found on Disney jnr, jimjam, nickelodeon etc and talk shows that don’t glorify God for example the Tyra Banks show and other worldly things even those which are called Christian movies or any other entertainment which if Jesus came to your house, you wouldn’t watch in His presence.
“Secular music is also any non-Christian song and even songs that are called Christian by people and yet have worldly beats such as rhumba; reggae, rap etc are unholy to the Lord. 1 John 2:15-17, James 4:4. “I saw a young girl of about 8 who was in hell for using artificial hair and makeup! I also noticed that she was wearing a string top and the Lord said this is indecent. Dressing your female children in indecent clothes such as bare backs, trousers, string tops and other indecent clothes will land them in hell! The Lord said,
“This is what the parents are teaching their children. Even girls as young as this are putting on makeup. The young children also see this makeup from cartoons like Barbie and they want to dress like those cartoons. They want to dress in the short skirts and trousers they see on those cartoons. Tell their parents to teach them the way of the Lord and to dress decently because they are coming to this place! If a child knows right from wrong and does not do right they are coming to this place! Many times in cartoons, they portray as though dressing that way is being ladylike. But it’s all a trap.”
The Chicago lawyer representing alleged fraudster, Olalekan Ponle AKA Mr Woodberry, Michael Nash has revealed why the fraud case against his client was dismissed by a US court.
It was earlier reported that the United States government on Monday July 20th filed a motion through its attorney John R. Lausch, requesting that the case against Woodberry be dismissed without prejudice, even though he was indicted by a grand jury on an eight-count charge of wire fraud.
However, commenting on the development, Nash told Premium Times that the case was dismissed because the government charged his client with a slightly different crime.
He said,
“The government dismissed the case because it charged him with a slightly different crime. In the long run, no difference.”
Assistant U.S. Attorney, Joseph D. Fitzpatrick who spoke on behalf of the plaintiff also told the publication that although the complaint is dismissed, the grand jury’s indictment is still active.
Fitzpatrick said;
“We dismissed the complaint, but the indictment (charging 8 counts of wire fraud) is still active. We cannot comment on the dismissal of the complaint, but I wanted to make sure you knew the indictment is still active.
“Mr Ponle has now been charged by indictment, instead of being charged by the complaint by FBI”.
It was further learnt that the suspected Nigerian fraudster is still in the custody of the U.S. Marshal.
Lottery operator commits suicide over inability to pay winnings in Lagos
Baba Pool, 70, left a suicide note before hanging himself inside his shop.
A lottery shop operator identified simply as Baba Pool, on Thursday, July 23, allegedly committed suicide inside his shop in Kayode Market, Abule Ijesha, in the Sabo area of Lagos State over his “inability to pay the winnings of his customers”.
Baba Pool, 70, dropped a suicide note before he hung himself inside his shop. His suicide note read
“For your information, Bourney and Osuma. Two of them kill me. A killer must surely die.”
According to traders in the market, the two persons the deceased accused of causing his death had some time ago played lottery in his shop but he did not submit their tickets to the lottery office.
When the lottery players realized that they had won, they asked for their money but instead of explaining to them that he did not submit their tickets, he decided to take his life.
Confirming the incident, the spokesperson of the state police command, Bala Elkana, said the two accused persons have been arrested and are currently being questioned.
In other related news, a 32-year-old Nigerian man identified as Aboh Ogbeche, reportedly committed suicide in the presence of his mother in the Lawanson, Surulere area of Lagos State on Friday, July 17.
Mr. Ogbeche who did not leave any suicide note, had poured a harmful liquid into a cup and sat before his mum where he gulped the liquid and started convulsing afterward. His mother immediately raised an alarm and he was subsequently rushed to the hospital where he was certified dead.
Described as a quite jovial person, many people who knew Aboh have been left in shock as they had no inkling he was ever going to take his own life.

The Nigerian Air Force has said an autopsy was not carried out on Tolulope Arotile, the first Combat Helicopter pilot in Nigeria who died on July 14, because the circumstances surrounding her death were clear.
Arotile, 25, died after she was hit by a former classmate at the Nigeria Air Force base in Kaduna state — a lot of Nigerians had called for an investigation into her death as they made demands for an autopsy to be carried out on Arotile who was laid to rest in Abuja on Thursday, July 23.
However, speaking to Channels TV on Friday morning July 24, spokesman for the Nigeria Air Force NAF, Air Commodore Ibikunle Daramola, said an autopsy was not done because of the circumstances surrounding her death were clear.
He added that her family members were not open to an autopsy as they wanted to move on from the unfortunate incident.
“On the issue of autopsy or otherwise, that would have been initiated by the family but based on discussions with them and the fact that witnesses were there at the time she was taken to the Nigerian Air Force hospital in Kaduna, there were no doubts as to the cause of death which was head injury as a result of blunt force trauma caused by the vehicle hitting her from the rear.
So, in consultation with her family, her father, Akintunde Arotile, said they wanted closure on this matter and that he was comfortable with the Nigerian Air Force’s investigation which of course is also being transferred to the police.
Autopsy was not done because it wasn’t requested, the cause of death was already known based on the investigation and how she was taken to the hospital, and the confirmation was made. There were no doubts in that regard and there was no request from the family for that specifically. No autopsy was done.”
He said those that were in the car that killed Arotile will be handed over to the police today July 24.
Some housemates of the ongoing Big Brother Naija reality TV show sat down their fellow housemate, Ozo on Thursday night to question him on why he is yet to make a move on Nengi who is his kind of woman.
The late-night conversation was an interesting one to watch as the housemates engaged both Ozo and Nengi concerning the state of their relationship in the house, to see if there’s the potential of that ship sailing.
The housemates who questioned Ozo said he should have been with Nengi a long time ago just as Lilo is with Eric but he objects saying there is still more time to make that move.
Nengi then chipped in saying “time is going”, prompting him to make that move before she changes her mind about him.
It should be recalled that Nengi openly had a conversation with him where she told him of her intentions when she meets a man she feels attracted to.
Ozo also mentioned Dorathy, describing her as different from all the females including Nengi and that she is the only female housemate she has bonded with so well unlike the other females in the house.

A Nigerian man identified as ”Last Battalion” on Facebook, has sparked an outrage on the platform after he shared photos of a cat he killed.
While sharing photos of the dead cat, Emmanuel called out the Witchcraft Association in Nigeria, Kubwa-Abuja chapter, warning them to desist from sending their ”recruits/apprentice” to his room.
He wrote;
“A LETTER TO THE WITCHCRAFT ASSOCIATION OF NIGERIA…
KUBWA- ABUJA CHAPTER
Pls stop sending your recruits/apprentice to my room next time…
I decree,every mystery of the enemies projected against you…they die in 24hrs!
The Lagos State Government has revealed that it spends between N100,000 and N1m daily on each of the COVID-19 patients in the state.
This is coming as the total number of confirmed COVID-19 cases in Lagos state exceeds 14,000.
The Commissioner for Health, Professor Akin Abayomi, disclosed the cost of treating COVID-19 patients in the state at a media briefing on Thursday.
Akin Abayomi explained that for mild and moderate cases, the state government spends averagely about N100,000 daily.
According to him, it costs the state government about N500,000 and N1m, to treat a patient with a serious case.
Abayomi, however, said it would be very difficult to calculate what it costs the state government to treat a COVID-19 patient, but what he provided was a rough estimate. He said;
“To treat mild-to-moderate case patients in our isolation centre is somewhere in the region of N100,000 per day.
“That gives you an idea of the amount of money the government is spending on COVID-19 isolation facilities and COVID-19 care.
“If you require high care or intensive care, that amount can go up to anything from N500,000 to even a million naira per day, depending on the complications of the case.
“Do you need ventilation, dialysis, intravenous antibiotics… Every case is different; so, it is difficult to calculate exactly how much a patient in high care or intensive care would cost.
“We are working on the rate and we would make it available when it’s ready.”
The cost he arrived at, factored in treatment, cost of feeding, accommodation and the services provided by the healthcare givers, etc.
Abayomi also revealed that about 2,036 COVID-19 patients have not been picked from the community in the last two weeks, due to preference for home treatment, logistic issues, wrong information provided in their forms and inability to reach such patients because their phones were switched off.

The fraud case against Olalekan Ponle better known as Mr Woodberry who was apprehended alongside Ramon Abbas AKA Hushpuppi, has been dismissed by a US court.
It should be recalled that Woodberry was accused of tricking a Chicago company into sending wire transfers totalling $15.2 million. Prosecutors disclosed that companies based in Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, New York and California were also victims of the fraud.
He was arrested in the United Arab Emirate on June 10 after a raid by operatives of the Dubai crime unit, and subsequently extradited to the U.S. on July 2.
Though Woodberry was indicted by a grand jury on an eight-count charge of wire fraud, the United States government on Monday July 20th filed a motion through its attorney John R. Lausch, requesting that the case against him be dismissed without prejudice.
Lausch said;
“Counsel for the government has spoken with counsel for the defendant and defendant’s counsel has no objection to this motion. Respectfully submitted.”
He added that the request was made in pursuant with Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure 48, which states that the government may, with leave of court, dismiss an indictment, information, or complaint.
A court order issued by Judge Robert W. Gettleman on Tuesday July 21, confirmed that the government’s motion to dismiss complaint without prejudice was granted.
Mr Gentleman said;
“Without objection the complaint against defendant Ponle is dismissed without prejudice. Motion presentment hearing set for 7/23/2020 is stricken.”
Since Woodberry’s case was dismissed without prejudice, it is temporal as the prosecutor can refile the case within a certain period of time.
The probable causes of dismissal range from unavailability of sufficient evidence, an improper criminal complaint or charging document, to loss of evidence necessary to prove the defendant committed the crime.

A United States Court sitting in Illinois, Chicago has given its reason for denying embattled Nigerian socialite, Ramon Abbas a.k.a Hushpuppi bail.
It should be recalled that the Instagram celebrity who was apprehended in Dubai early in June for alleged wire fraud and was extradited to the U.S on July 3, was accused of being part of a network that made “hundreds of millions of dollars” from business email compromise frauds and other scams.
The US court has now revealed that it denied Hushpuppi bail and the opportunity to stay with his girlfriend’s Uncle pending the conclusion of his trial.
Based on the recommendations of the Pretrial services which provides the court quality information about defendants, it was stated that Hushpuppi presents a risk of non appearance and should be removed to the charging district in California in custody.
According to a report by Premium Times, other factors include the fact that Mr Abbas is subject to lengthy period of incarceration if convicted, lacks significant community or family ties to the district, lacks significant family or other ties outside the United States, lacks legal status in the country and will be subjected to removal or deportation for serving any period of incarceration.
If the allegations turns out true, it was further stated that Huspuppi who has ties with many foreign countries has sufficient assets to fund flight to anywhere in the world.
The statement partly read,
“Abbas reportedly rents an apartment in Dubai for $10.000 a month and drives a Bentley. He is alleged to have committed financial crimes that netted tens of millions of dollars or more.
“For these reasons and those stated on the record, Mr Abbas shall be removed to the charging district in the custody of the US Marshal.”
Hushpuppi risks spending 20 years in prison if convicted.

Emmanuella who is the last born of the family, was frustrated over her daily house duties and so she printed a list for her family, where she stated clearly the new roles she will play in the house, and the ones she has chosen to neglect.
According to Emmanuella, being the last born should not be a curse and as such, she should not be forced to do things for family members who can actually carry out the tasks themselves.
“My chores in this house are becoming too much. It is not a curse to be the last born. Simple task like plugging in torch you use everyday, you don’t do”, she wrote.
Busty Big Brother Naija Season 5 housemate, Dorathy has revealed that she has a crush on former Kogi West Senator, Dino Melaye
.
The curvaceous housemate is currently one of the most talked about housemate of the ongoing reality TV show.
Dorathy revealed that Dino Melaye —who recently joined the movie industry— is her celebrity crush.
This was discovered by Kiddwaya during the Thursday night arena games — during the games, housemates were made to answer questions about each other, and Kiddwaya answered the question about Dorathy.
In his question tag, Kiddwaya was asked to name the housemate whose celebrity crush is the Nigerian senator.
Kiddwaya then gave Dora as his answer which was correct as she wrote down Dino Melaye in her form earlier filled in the house.

Popular Instagram comedian, Adedamola Adewale popularly known as Adeherself, who was arrested alongside four others by the EFCC, on the 16th of June, for internet fraud, has been released.
Recall that on Wednesday July 15th, she was granted N500,000 bail by an Ikeja Special Offences Court in which she was ordered to provide two sureties with reliable means of income which would be verified by the court. J
The influencer, who had been in the custody of the EFCC following her arraignment in court on July 7, is facing a charge of possession of a fraudulent document.
According to EFCC counsel, Samuel Daji, the defendant was arrested following intelligence received by the EFCC on the activities of some young men allegedly involved in internet fraud in the Lekki axis of Lagos.
Day four of Big Brother Naija “Lockdown” season was task day for the housemates which became an unfortunately non-celebratory day as their first wager was lost due to little preparedness.
Since the show’s opening night, housemates have been encouraged to get to know themselves ahead of Thursday night’s wager game. Big Brother offered a special treat to the team to successfully hit 30 points.
Disappointingly, some housemates were too involved in the cuddling business to pay attention to discovering other housemates.
The wager challenge ended with none of the teams reaching 30 points. The female team, however, led the male team with 10 points which could have been more had Nengi not missed a point for her love. Although their winning chances remained slim, Nengi‘s loss, which was in a bid to help Ozo with his question, was a particularly hard pill to swallow.
A question was asked on which of the housemates is ambidextrous (Writes with both left and right hand) and Ozo got a hint from Nengi who nudged her head to make him realize that she was the ambidextrous person.
The Challenge
The Housemates were asked to play in two groups. Group one – the gents group, while group two was made up of the ladies.
Each group played for a win and the winning group will get a special treat from Big Brother next week.
Though they were playing against each other, they were still playing for the House win. There were 40 questions and the House had to get at least 30 questions right to win tonight’s Challenge. As anticipated, tonight’s game tested their knowledge of one another. Each Housemate had an opportunity to answer two questions about a Housemate of the opposite sex and ach correct answer was counted as a point.
How well do they actually know each other? Is it too early to judge?
Given two rounds (and an opportunity to score a total of two points) on how well they know one another, here’s how the Housemates fared:
Nengi
1 point (which was taken back by Biggie for helping Ozo out with his answer)

A well deserved treat
For taking the lead in tonight’s Task, the Lockdown ladies won Biggie’s treat which will be given to them next week.
A Russian nurse who went viral for wearing just lingerie under a see-through protective gown in a male coronavirus ward has now become a TV weather presenter.
Nadia Zhukova, 23, was photoed in a transparent PPE as she gave patients their medicine sometime in May. She was initially disciplined for ‘non-compliance with the requirements for medical clothing‘ by hospital bosses who also threatened to fire her.
The nurse had complained that she was ‘too hot‘ in the hazmat gown and didn’t realise the PPE was so transparent.
Her punishment was later withdrawn after several Politicians defended her. At that time, politician Vitaly Milonov said,
‘No disciplinary methods should be imposed on the (nurse). There was no malicious intent…I’m sure she herself was embarrassed….
‘In no case should the girl be punished, I am sharply against this.’
Nadia has now been offered a role as weather presenter on her local TV station in Tula, south of Moscow, but will continue working as a nurse.
Speaking on her new TV role on Vesti Tula, she said,
‘It is a big thing for me. Thank you for letting me try.
‘My parents will watch, in the evening, after work.’
Earlier, she was also offered a role as a model for a Russian sportswear brand, Miss X lingerie but rejected the offer to focus on her medical career.
