Suspected hoodlums on Tuesday night stormed a popular viewing centre, Kaneworld Resort in Uyo, Akwa Ibom, and shot dead a final year student of the University of Uyo (UNIUYO) while watching the UEFA Champions League matches, TheNation reports.
It was gathered that a three-man gang, stormed the viewing centre located at 17, Idak Okpo lane, few minutes to the end of the matches involving Manchester United, Chelsea and Bayern Munich and shot the victim.
The heavily armed gunmen reportedly ordered viewers to lie face down.
“When they (the criminals) ordered everyone to lie down, the deceased struggled with his Infinix phone and was shot at close range,” Effiong Akpan, a Manchester United fan told TheNation.
According to him, the deceased, Dominic Ubiat, a final year Microbiology student was shot on his groin at close range.
“He ran with patches of blood from the viewing centre and was chased by the hoodlums to his house and died before help could reach him,” another fan added.
The Nation gathered that youths from the area arrived a little too late to take him to the hospital where medics confirmed he died from excessive loss of blood.
His parents, Mr. and Mrs. Ubiat who visited the scene of the incident on Wednesday, lamented that all the years of their son in the university was in vain and vowed to go the extra mile to avenge his death.
Confirming the incident, the state Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), DSP Elkana Bala described the incident as “a pure robbery attack.”
A former street beggar, Abdulsalam Kamaldeen Idowu has earned the rare privilege of being honored by the House of Representatives for seeing himself through school to become a lawyer and political science graduate.
Mr. Idowu, who is crippled, did not allow his disability to hinder him from achieving academic success.
Also honoured by the lower legislative chamber was Miss Aarinola Olaiya, the first student in 28 years to graduate with distinction in surgery from the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife.
The decision to honor these young Nigerians followed the adoption of a motion sponsored by the House Leader, Rep. Femi Gbajabiamila (Lagos-APC).
Accordingly, the House resolved to establish, by law, a Parliamentary Honours/Award System for recognition of extraordinary achievements by Nigerians.
Gbajabiamila while introducing the Honourees, said that the motion was intended to reward excellence and encourage citizens who had elevated the ideals of the Nigerian society.
“When ordinary Nigerians do Extra ordinary things then they must be celebrated and all men and women of power and influence must rise and bow to them”, he said.
“Nigerians and the world celebrate Messi and Ronaldo everyday for the amazing things they are able to do with their legs and today we must celebrate Abdulsalam for the amazing things he has been able to do without his legs”, the House Leader added.
According to Gbajabiamila, Abdulsalam Idowu displayed resilience and hard work by studying political science and law from street begging and despite being homeless for years sleeping at Idumota Motor Park in Lagos.
“Idowu lost his two legs to polio at the age of three, lost his mother at the age of four, started primary school at eight and resorted to street begging to raise money to buy uniforms, books and to feed.
“He begged for arms from primary through secondary school and was known on the streets of Lagos as a beggar.
“From street begging he bought GCE form in 2002, sat and passed the GCE and Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) exam and was subsequently admitted to study political science at the University of Lagos.
“As he was preparing to complete his first degree, he sat for the West African School Certificate Examination and JAMB.
“In his determination to become a lawyer, passed the exams studied law and was later admitted to Nigerian Law School in 2015 and was called to the Nigerian Bar on Nov. 30 2016”, Gbajabiamila added.
The lawmaker also seized the opportunity to inform his colleagues that Master Ayodele Dada, who was similarly introduced to the House and the world in like manner on the 26th of March, 2016, for breaking the 5.0 Cumulative Grade Point at graduation in the University of Lagos, just concluded his service at the Central Bank of Nigeria and preparing to further his studies abroad after receiving several job offers.
He expressed belief that the duo of Aarinola and Abdulsalam will also soar higher.

Music Producer and Singer Maleek Berry in an interview with Bella Naija discussed the alleged rift between his close friends Wizkid & Davido, his relationship and keeping up with his female fans.
Read excerpts of the interview below…
On the recent spat between Wizkid & Davido:
I don’t really like to comment on that. Everyone that knows me, knows that I’m all for the notion of “there’s enough room for all of us”.
Wizkid.
On keeping up with female fans:
I just try and show them love as much as possible no matter where I go. When we was on tour in the US , we had a view instances where fans tried to pretend to be Press/Media so they could sneak into our entourage backstage.
On his current relationship status:
I’m single. I feel like it’s very important to be focused at this stage in my career, but you know what they say about love/romance, you never see it coming so at the same time I’m open to it.
While the issue of tithing appears to be causing ripples and division among Nigerians, an investigative journalist and writer, Femi Owolabi, has come to the defence of some pastors and what they do with the tithes and offerings they get from the church.
Femi Owolabi
Owolabi took to his Facebook account to speak on the trending issue. Below is what he posted…
I live around Yaba area of Lagos. From Sabo down to Iwaya, you see boreholes donated by Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries, MFM.
Many months ago, I was working on a report and I needed to carry out some laboratory tests. When I got to University of Lagos’ Chemical Engineering lab, I was directed to the university’s central lab which I gathered is the largest and most equipped. Entering, I saw that the lab was donated by Daniel Olukoya, founder of MFM who is actually an alumnus of the school.
As much as the leadership of the Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, embarrasses itself on the pages of newspaper, CAN runs one of the largest displaced persons camps in the northeast. For three years that I have been mobilizing relief materials for displaced persons in the northeast, aside individuals and a few NGOs, Christian organizations have been a larger donor of relief materials. My phone would ring, and the caller goes, “I am Pastor JJ. We have bags of cloths, please how do we get these to the displaced persons in the northeast?”
Charis Family Church, in 2015, opened its facility as a collection center for relief materials. The pastor, Bayo Adeyinka, and a team raised almost a million naira to sort logistics.
Just yesterday, another pastor whose church’s team once gave me bags of relief materials for IDPs, told me they have 33k left in the account, and he asked what this can sort for the IDPs. He also wants us to meet this week so he can drop with me, bags of relief materials.
A man reached out to me many months ago. He needed information on how he can move 1000 cartons of flour (or wheat?) from Lagos to any of the IDPs camps in the northeast. I did a check on the man, he is a pastor.
In Lagos here, the Catholic Mission and a couple of other missionary hospitals are always on medical outreach to the IDPs.
I understand there is an ongoing debate on whether or not paying tithe is a Christian practice. Sincerely, those arguing against come with strong points. And sadly, responses from Daddy GO and others are so weak, far from convincing.
Get it right, it is the duty of Lagos Water Board to provide water for Lagosians, but MFM now shares in this responsibility. It is the duty of NEMA and the Refugees’ Commission to attend to the victims of insurgency, but CAN and a couple of other Christian organizations share largely in this.
So, above all, if I am paying tithe or giving church my money, I do so because of some of these things I have mentioned in this post

On the 1st of December, we brought to you the story of a secondary school teacher who was murdered because she flogged a student.
According to the report the parents of one 14-year-old Okafor Chinaza, a student of starlight secondary school, Ogidi – fought and killed their daughter’s teacher for flogging her.
A condolence register has been opened for the deceased teacher in the school as students and teachers as well are yet to recover from the shocking incident.
A 45-year-old lesbian has revealed she sleeps with more than 10 women a day.
The lesbian, Janet Ofori, after mastering in the lesbian act from Senior High School has been able to satisfy lots of rich single women.
According to her, some of her clients are minsters in government and MPs including some radio presenters.
After graduating as a lesbian master, Janet has been able to convert more than 3,000 women and is still counting to reach her target.
According to Janet, lesbianism as described by many Ghanaians as evil is never stated anywhere in the bible.
She said, “Were you there, when God created Adam and Eve and you will come and tell me that, God made Adam and Eve to marry? And who says being a lesbian is wrong, show me where it is stated in the bible.”
The 45-year-old woman who was accompanied by a gay man, at the studios of Adom TV, expressed that, she could sleep with about 10 women in a day.
The gay man, Kwame Mensah, on the other hand, disclosed that, with the help of chemical creams, his anus is wide enough to receive any size of a man’s penis.
“I take care of my family and am not working too, so I don’t think, I can take care of a woman.”
“I don’t want broken heart and woman can’t satisfy me either. I go to church and I pay my tithe alright, so who is he to judge me.”
“I choose the kind of men I want, and my anus can take any size, no matter how huge the person may be.”
Nigerian gay rights activist, Bisi Alimi has taken to his Twitter page to call out the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye.
Recall, Bisi Alimi recently said that Christianity in Nigeria is a fraud because of the constant offerings and tithes.
He said:
“Because most of the time, the truth is the best gift you can give humanity. No don’t thank me, just be the change.”
This time, Alimi has referred to the Clergyman as vile and irresponsible and also accused him of using his members’ tithe money to buy private jet.
Just like character is the most important quality of a good guy, the woman you’re going to marry should have good character as well…When you find your heartthrob, she is more valuable than anything!.
An unidentified lady reportedly got shocked after the man of her dreams sent her the list of attributes his wife must possess.
A Twitter user @boboxl shared the list on the platform and wrote:

Nigerian migrants were filled with joy and expressed relief as they arrived home yesterday, Tuesday 5th of December 2017 from Libya, describing the “hell” of harsh conditions in detention camps where they had been held.
African heads of state have condemned the treatment of undocumented migrants in Libya, including widespread violence and apparent slave trading.
The 144 returnees who touched down late Tuesday, and another planeload expected to land shortly after, are part of a repatriation programme that Nigeria has stepped up in recent months.
One man who gave his name as Franklin told AFP that he was “very, very happy” to return.
“It’s good to be home, because I’ve been in hell in the land of Libya. I’ll start a new life in my country,” he said as he waited to be given food.
The UN has urged Libya to agree to shut down 30 centres holding 15,000 migrants, whose detention has become a pressing issue after video footage showing African men sold in Libyan slave auctions sparked global outrage.
“Thank God, thank God, thank God,” said one young man as he stood in an orderly line at the airport to be registered first by immigration officers and then by the National Emergency Management Agency.
Nigerians make up the majority of undocumented migrants trying to make the treacherous crossing via the Mediterranean Sea to Europe.
Their repatriation began nearly a year ago but numbers have increased recently, with nearly 1,300 brought home in November, according to NEMA.
Another returnee, Omoburo, said he had been held in a Libyan detention camp for nearly nine months before he could return home.
“They used us to do all sort of things, to carry bombs, to carry ammunition, even to ‘pack’ dead bodies,” he said as he stood in front of a large poster of Nigeria’s first lady Aisha Buhari extending a warm “welcome” to the group.
It was reported that up to 70% of the Libya returnees are from Edo state
Well, it is obvious with every benefit of doubt that the hot fire heating between Bobrisky and MC Galaxy isn’t gonna go cold anytime soon…
Recall, few hours ago we brought about the MCG Empire Leader, who said he has launched a desperate search for the transvestite’s former gateman, Jacob.
In a video obtained by Krakshq, Jacob revealed he has been working for Bobrisky for the past 6 months, and has never paid him a dime for his work.
Jacob also said after he featured in MC Galaxy’s song, MC gave him the sum of N40,000.. But then his Boss, Bobrisky, collected everything from him. [Watch the Video HERE]
Following reports that Jacob had been fired, MC Galaxy took to his IG page to announce that he was looking for the former gate man as he’d some amount of money to give him.
He wrote:
“JACOB IS NO MORE A GATE MAN ? So guys I came back from Miami 2 days ago and people told me JACOB can’t even work on the road again lol ,, So I think its time to Bless him , now I have a budget of 2million naira for Jacob ?. So I need you guys to advice me on what to do for him with 2million naira BEST ADVICE WINS He is on percentage of THE SONG JACURB DANCE ????? keep supporting others , and pls JACOB IS NO MORE A GATE MAN”.
In a later update, the singer said he was canceling a show in Rwanda because of Jacob and pleaded with his fans/followers to help locate the former gate man so he could take him to his village to go visit his father who is allegedly hospitalized.
“I just heard JACOBS FATHER IS SICK , in the village and I was suppose to go for my artist show in Rwanda, but because of this I will not be going again. I must make sure I take Jacob to his village 2morrow to see his father in the hospital, Guys pls if u can find him tell him to call my sound eng.

Two persons parading themselves as officers of Federal Special Anti-Robbery Squad (F-SARS), have been arrested at Igwuruta, by Rivers police command.
Fake Commander Kenneth Obunwa and fake officer Oluwagbenga Abe will soon appear in court. Obunwa hails from Rivers State, while Abe hails from Ijero-Ekiti in Ekiti State.
The state Commander of SARS, Akin Fakorode, while parading suspects, said they were arrested after the command received a distress call around 7 a.m. on Tuesday.
He said:
“F-SARS received a distress call that Obunwa and Abe, who claimed to be operatives of F-SARS, accosted Pastor Finan and his younger brother and subjected them to thorough search in their compound at Igwuruta, with undisclosed sum of money extorted from them.
The suspects impersonated as operatives of F-SARS and they have been doing it for a while. We quickly responded to the distress call, because the members of the public adequately utilized the distress lines that we gave.
We traced the impersonators and we arrested them. We have a lot of miscreants who are impersonating security agents, especially F-SARS, thereby harassing, intimidating and extorting money from innocent members of the public, who ought to be very vigilant.”
At the recent Annual Conference of Heritage Adoption Support and Advocacy Group (HASAAG) in Lagos, actress Joke Silva shocked many when she revealed that she was not a natural child of late lawyer, Chief E.A Silva who was the then Babajiro of Lagos and his late wife, Dr Abimbola Silva, reputed to be Nigeria’s first female medical doctor.
Speaking at the event, the actress revealed that her family also kept the fact that she was adopted a secret from her, until she accidentally discovered that fact: “But I got to know years later when I wanted to travel and was looking for my passport where my mum kept it.
Since she was not around, I opened the box in her absence and I saw my adoption papers. I never discussed it with my mum because I felt it was something that would hurt her, that was why, it was kept secret from me.”
Before her discovery however, an older cousin had tried to let her know the fact that she was not a natural child of the Silvas’.
She said:
“I remembered going out with my cousin and we met a big cousin.
She introduced me as ‘my cousin’s daughter and this is Dr Silva’s daughter.’ Then, the older cousin was like, ‘Dr. Silva ke? Se Doctor Silva bimo ni? (meaning does Dr. Silva have a child?) .
I was so confused and when I got home I told my mum, ‘I met this lady that says you never had a child.’ My mum froze and she said, ‘don’t mind them, they are used to rubbish talk.’
But I had incredible memories of my amazing legal parents for allowing me to do my A Level in England and going to one of the best schools in Bournemouth.”
According to the reports by kemiashefonlovehaven, the 56-year-old actress said before her adoption, she lived in a foster home of the Red Cross in Yaba, Lagos.

Nigerian singer and MCG Empire Leader, MC Galaxy has launched a desperate search for Jacob, who until recently, was the famous gate man at male barbie, Bobrisky’s house.
Jacob was fired from his job over allegations that he fraudulently obtained N60,000 from his boss.
In a video obtained by Krakshq, Jacob revealed he has been working for Bobrisky for the past 6 months, and has never paid him a dime for his work.

Jacob also revealed that folks sent him money to him through Bobrisky, but then the cross dresser will pocket the money, and refuse to give him.
Jacob also said after he featured in MC Galaxy’s song, MC gave him the sum of N40,000.. But then his Boss, Bobrisky, collected everything from him.

A Nigerian man identified as Christian Efe Oyovweyho has been convicted and sentenced to 8 years imprisonment by Justice Z.B. Abubakar of the Federal High Court Kano for impersonating the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina.
He attempted to fleece a Bayero University don of N300, 000 for a nonexistent appointment in the Presidency has been convicted.
The convict was prosecuted by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, on a 2-count charge that borders on conspiracy and attempt to obtain, in contravention of sections 8(a) and (b) of the Advance Fee Fraud and Other Fraud Related Offences Act, 2006.
The convict’s journey to prison started when the Commission received a petition that he had impersonated Adesina.
The petitioner, Professor Dalhatu Mohammed Galadanci of the Bayero University Kano further stated that the convict had attempted to obtain the sum of N300,000 (Three Hundred Thousand Naira Only) from him.
According to Galadanci, sometime in July 2016, the convict sent him a text message claiming to be Femi Adesina, SA to the president on Media and Publicity.
The defendant fraudulently claimed to be speaking on behalf of the president and that the name of the professor has been forwarded for appointment in the presidency.
The complainant further stated that the defendant claimed to be searching for a better office for him. Subsequently, the defendant asked the professor to make payment of the sum of Three Hundred Thousand Naira Only) in order to facilitate his appointment to one of Nigeria Port Authority, Nigerian Railway Cooperation and Rural Electrification Agency.
At that point, the professor got suspicious and reported the matter to the commission.
Upon arraignment on the 16th of March, 2017, the convict pleaded not guilty and the prosecution counsel, Musa Isah proceeded to trial during which two prosecution witnesses gave evidence while the convict stood as the only defense witness.
In her judgment, Justice Abubakar found the convict guilty of the offence he was charged with after she was convinced that the prosecution had proved the case against him beyond reasonable doubt.
She subsequently sentenced him to 4 years imprisonment without option of fine on each of the two count charge. The sentence is to run concurrently.
Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has asked politicians who dumped the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, for other parties to return, saying there “is no other political party” in the country apart from the PDP.
The former vice president made the assertion Tuesday in Abuja when he paid a courtesy call on the national leadership of the party at its national secretariat in the nation’s capital.
Alhaji Atiku had only recently dumped the governing All Progressives Congress, APC to return to the PDP, which he left in 2014.
Accompanied by his loyalists and praise signers, the Waziri Adamawa, showered encomiums on the Senator Ahmed Makarfi-led National Caretaker Committee of the PDP, just as he expressed gratitude to the leadership of the party for receiving him at short notice.
He said:
“I like to thank you very much indeed for this privilege and opportunity granted me to do so, realizing that this is a very busy for you.
All what I have come to do today is to come and show my face. Many people have read in the media that I have returned home. This is home.
Mr. Chairman, I want to congratulate you for a wonderful work which you have been doing to redeem the image of this party, to return it, rebrand it and return it to its original form.

A Federal High Court in Abuja has set aside its order made on May 30, freezing 16 accounts belonging to wife of former President Goodluck Jonathan, Dame Patience Jonathan.
Justice Binta Nyako withdrew the order on Tuesday on the grounds that EFCC which secured the freezing order failed to conduct its investigation into the alleged infractions involving the 16 accounts.
The court’s decision followed an application by the counsel to Mrs. Jonathan asking the court to set aside an ex-parte motion filed by the EFCC for continued control of the accounts.
The lawyer, Mike Ozekhome, described EFCC’s motion as an abuse of court process.
Ozekhome revealed that the court had ordered the EFCC to conduct its investigation within 90 days of freezing the accounts in May, but the commission failed to carry out the said investigation.

Meanwhile, Adeboye once again, spoke on the tithe issue, which which was all started by OAP, Daddy Freeze.
According to Pastor Adeboye, God himself convinced him that tithing was right for Christians.
Recall that in a previous reaction to the tithing controversy, Adeboye warned Christians against the dangers of non- compliance to paying of tithe.
However, the cleric, on Sunday, 3rd December, 2017 edition of his Daily Devotional, titled: “Open Heavens”, said the command to pay tithes on one’s earnings simply places a demand on the Christian to trust God.
Writing on the topic, ‘Tithing Is Trusting’, Adeboye said:
“To experience exploits in your life, you must have a personal relationship with God. You must believe that He lives and love Him with all your heart. You must also learn to trust in Him.
“The command to pay tithes on your earnings simply places a demand on you to trust God. Your response to this command shows the level of trust you have in Him.
“If you can pay your tithes correctly, it shows that you trust God for your livelihood, but if you find it difficult to be faithful in doing this, it simply shows that you trust more in your earning than in God to sustain you.
“After I became newly born again and we were taught to pay tithes, I laughed and said in my mind, ‘These people do not know that I am a mathematician. If 100% is not enough for me, how can 90% be enough after I have paid 10% as tithe? Thank you very much! Even though these people are not educated, they still want to use their smartness to take 10% of my income from me. Let them try and take it’.
“However, down the line, God convinced me by Himself and I observed remarkable changes in my life.”
