A 25-year-old man, identified as Muhammed Obadimeji, was stabbed to death after trying to settle a dispute between two guys who were fighting over a teenage girl in the Dopemu area of Lagos.
According to reports, the rivals, identified as Ayodele and Babashola were having an heated clash over their girlfriend Barak, when Ayodele who had a sharp object with him stabbed obadimeji when he tried separating them.
According to an eyewitness,
“The boyfriends were fighting over the girl and the person who came to separate them was killed. One of them stabbed the person, who wanted to separate them and the injury led to his death. The man knew nothing about the fight; he wasn’t the one in a relationship with the girl; he just intervened to stop the fight and that was it.
“The girl is a teenager and somebody was killed because of her. The police have arrested the two rival men and the girl. All of them are in the police station.”
The Lagos state police Public Relations Officer, Bala Elkana, confirmed the arrest of the suspect and the corpse of the deceased has been deposited in the Yaba General Hospital’s mortuary, for autopsy.
He said,
“On Sunday, August 9, 2020, around 1.30pm, information was received from a good Samaritan that one Eniola Ayodele, 28, was fighting with Kayode Babashola, 31, over a girl, Barakat Wasiu, all of who stay in the same address on Momodu Street, Orile-Agege.
“During the fight, Eniola Ayodele allegedly used a sharp object to stab one Muhammed Obadimeji, 25, who was said to have come to separate them, in the chest. The peacemaker was rushed to the LASUTH in Ikeja for treatment and later died.
“A team of policemen was mobilised to the scene of the incident, where Ayodele, Babashola and Barakat Wasiu were all arrested and brought to the station. Obadimeji’s corpse has been deposited in the mortuary of the General Hospital in Yaba for autopsy. Investigation is in progress and the case has been transferred to the SCIID, Panti, Yaba, for further action.”
Ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo has stated that he does not care what people would say about him when he dies.
Obasanjo fired back at people criticizing him over his condolence message to the family of late Buruji Kashamu, a former senator and factional leader of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ogun State.
Speaking in an interview with Premium Times, Obasanjo said: “When I was growing up, in our community, when anyone known with bad character died, we usually only mourn him and bury him. No eulogy. No praise-singing.
There is an English saying that urges us never to talk ill of the dead. But in this case, we are not talking ill of the dead. We are only drawing lessons from the life and history of the dead. I am not gloating over his death. It is sad for anyone to die and we must mourn him.
But we must learn from such a passage. There will be bad lessons. There will be good lessons. But we should not just be praise-singing or eulogising the dead, especially when there is no need to do so.
We should not cover up bad histories and conducts so that the right lessons can be learnt.
As you know, I say my mind as truthfully as I know them and in line with my convictions. People are free to say whatever they want about my comment. I don’t begrudge people for holding opinions on whatever I say or do.
Let people say whatever they like when I transit. Now that I am alive, am I not being abused? Whenever I transit, let people say whatever they know or think about me. Let them say it as it is. What my maker thinks of me is what matters most.”

While discussing the love triangle with his colleague housemates, Praise said he agrees with Ebuka about Erica, trying to get the best of both worlds when she knows it is not possible and is hurting one person in the process.
According to Laycon, he had already talked about getting his space, although he cares about her and everything, she is disrespecting his wishes by still pushing for friendship which he doesn’t want currently because it will create an avenue for him to pester her with his feelings.
Brighto then cut in to ask who he would have picked if he had won the HOH title and he replied, “Kaisha..I’ve already talked about it” he said. Praise seconded him saying he had said that to him and he would have done same if he won because of Kaisha’s personality.
– Maureen Esisi speaks on her broken marriage to Actor Blossom Chukwujekwu
– Says ” I wasn’t perfect, I will never be, but i was his best.”
Nollywood actor Blossom Chukwujekwu’s ex-wife, Maureen Esisi, has reflected on their failed marriage.
Maureen took to her social media page to reveal how her father broke the news of her marriage being over to her.
In her words ;
“Worst day today
Work Sucked Greatly
My Heart Sank too…
Weird thing is…. by this time last year.. ????, exactly same date and same time, my Old man broke to me the news of my marriage being over… I remember laughing for a long time, standing up from where I sat listening to him as he tried to find the best words to convey the message to me… i put both hands in my pocket and paced the room silently as he looked at me waiting on me to say something. I pondered in my head about what I had just heard, why I was the last person to know it and how in the world we got there… ????
African culture makes it so that the Woman must take it all in, she must understand no matter what, she must be subdued, she must never complain, she must learn to live with whatever, she must forgive even when she can’t, she must show happiness even when she is depressed, she must show strength even when she is weak…. and more
But the Man, He is allowed to NOT take shit (even the tiniest of it) He would even be Praised for it.
Life!!!!????????
September 11th in View; I will be 33
I am Happier
I am at Peace
I’m stronger
I’m Richer
I’m sexier
I’m Single
I’m Free
I wasn’t Perfect, I will NEVER be… But I was His Best!
A lot of Nigerians are still reeling over the news that a Kano Upper Shari’a Court handed a death sentence to a 22-year-old singer for blaspheming against Prophet Muhammad.
Sometime in March, it was reported that some youths in Kano state stormed the Kano Hisbah office and demanded that action be taken against one Yahaya Sharif-Aminu for a song he composed, containing alleged derogatory comments attributed to the Prophet Muhammad.
The youths warned that they will take laws into their hands if action was not taken. Prior to their protest, the youths on Friday, February 28, stormed the family house of the singer located at Sharifai quarters in Kano Municipal Local Government Area, prompting them to flee their home.
The house was then set ablaze by irate youths.
Yahaya has now been sentenced to death by hanging for the song. The presiding judge Khadi Aliyu Kani gave the guilty verdict on Monday, August 10, 2020.
The court also sentenced a man Umar Farouq of Sharada quarters in Kano metropolis to 10 years imprisonment for making “derogatory statements concerning the Almighty Allah in a public argument.”

“We are working very hard to ensure the security situation in every part of Nigeria improves very soon. As part of our efforts, we are investing heavily in acquiring modern equipment. Some have arrived, some are being cleared at the Ports, and we have others still on their way.
“Our government is doing its best on the question of equipment, and the military know. We understand the importance of properly equipping our personnel, so that they can deliver their best. “I ask for some patience with the acquisition of equipment, especially with the impact of Covid-19 on global supply chains.
And then when the equipment arrive, we need to train personnel for their usage, ahead of deployment to the field. I want all Nigerians to rest assured that we are doing our very best in this regard. You will see substantial improvements very soon. Security of the lives and property of all Nigerian people will continue to be a priority for us,” the statement read.
The WhatsApp conversation between a lady and her boyfriend surfaced on the internet and the content of their chat has her telling him that she won’t marry him should he continue to live in a family house.
As can be seen in the leaked screenshots between the lady and her boyfriend identified as Jerry, they both can’t marry each other if he doesn’t pack out of his family house as it makes him look irresponsible.
The lady who revealed she’s 25, stated that it’s a height of irresponsibility for a 29-year-old “rich” man to still live with his family and even think of marrying and living with his wife in the same family house.
Jerry however told her that he stays with his mum because he’s her only son and his father died when he was too young so he is literary his mum’s husband.
Big Brother Naija ‘lockdown’ housemate, Laycon, has hinted that he’s not going to rest on his oars when it comes to his quest on having a romantic affair with Erica.

Brighto and Praise however had a different sentiment on the issues as they both hinted that Erica is already drawn to Kiddwaya.
Nigerians reacted and some are not happy Laycon is allowing his feelings derail his focus in Biggie’s house.

Earlier this evening, Erica in no surprise, chose her potential lover, Kiddwaya as her deputy Head of house for the week.
As every housemate gathered in the lounge for Big Brother to announce who she chose as her deputy HOH, with him announcing that she chose, Kiddwaya, who gladly accepted the selection, Laycon could be seen with a rather disappointing look following the disclosure.
It should be recalled that Laycon was spotted talking with Erica moments after she was announced as the new Head of house for this week. He declared his feelings, yet again, to the actress even though he’d told her to give him space.
Nigerians have since taken to social media to react to the development as they refer to Laycon as a “simp” who should get a hold of himself and try and focus on the game rather than catch feelings for the wrong person.
With Erica as head of house and Kiddwaya as her potential deputy, they are both immune to eviction this coming week as the other housemates are up for possible eviction.
This week’s Head of House, Erica has in no surprise, chosen her potential lover, Kiddwaya as her deputy Head of house for the week.

The Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has set September 7, as the new commencement date for the 2020/2021 post unified tertiary matriculation examination (post-UTME) screening exercise.
According to Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, the Board Registrar, the commencement date was changed from August 21, to enable students writing the 2020 Senior School certificate Examination (SSCE), participate in the screening exercise.
This announcement was made on Monday at a meeting between the board, Vice Chancellors, Rectors, and Provosts of tertiary institutions.
Oloyede, noted that the screening exercise would hold between Septemeber 7 and November 2020.
He said,”Presently as you are aware, WAEC starts the Senior School Certificate Examination on Aug. 17, it will go on till Sept. 7.
“Similarly, on Sept. 2 or thereabout, NABTEB will commence its own examination that will go on till Oct. 15, and immediately after that, NECO starts from the 5th to Nov.18.
“Rather than making candidates run, particularly, when they will have to write their school certificate exam in different towns and rush to universities elsewhere for post-UTME, like somebody rushing from Sokoto to Ibadan for post-UTME, we believe as a custodian of the highest sector of the education system, we should avoid that,” Oloyede added.
“For those institutions who want to take post-UTME, that cannot be earlier than the 7th of September and it will be held twice – from 7th September to 4th of October, and then it will be held for the second time on the 18th of November to mop up those who are taking their school certificate examination,”

She however went on to say that she hopes to reconcile with her boyfriend after the house, but if she leaves the house and her boyfriend is no longer available for her, then she might have to move on to Ozo as he is her ideal candidate.
