Damain Okoligwe, the 400-level student of the University of Port Harcourt, has denied murdering his 20-year-old girlfriend, Justina Otuene.
Recall that the Petroleum and Gas Engineering student was arrested on Wednesday, October 25, after the decomposing body of his girlfriend was found in his apartment.
While being paraded before newsmen on Thursday, he alleged that he is innocent of the allegation and doesn’t know what killed the deceased.
He stated that he found her lifeless in the morning after she had spent the night at his house. He further explained that he didn’t raise an alarm or report the incident to the police out of fear of being wrongfully blamed for her murder.
Speaking further, he claimed that the corpse was still intact in the bag, contrary to the widely circulated claim of dismemberment.
However, it’s important to note that blood was dripping from the bag when he was apprehended, casting doubt on his story.
The police, speaking on the case, said operatives of Ozuoba Division received a complaint from a neighbor that a foul stench was emanating from their compound on Road 20, back of NTA Ozuoba.
In response to the complaint, they visited the house, where they discovered the decomposing body of the deceased, and immediately took the suspect into custody.
A man has gone viral on the microblogging platform X after showing off his remarkable transformation following a hair transplant surgery in Turkey.
The man opted for this cosmetic procedure due to premature balding, which caused his hairline to recede early.
He revealed that baldness runs in his family, as his father and brother also experience the same condition.
Due to this, he invested $6,000 in a hair transplant surgery in Turkey, a procedure that involves moving healthy hairs on the scalp to areas with thinning hair.
He explained that hospitals in the US were charging double that amount but he was able to get the procedure done cheaper in Turkey.
The X user, with the handle @LasTrain2London, posted photos of his head before the procedure, immediately after the procedure, and a recent photo.
“This is what Turkey did for me 🌹”, he captioned the post.

A 53-year-old woman has taken her country by surprise after marrying her adopted son, who is 31 years younger than she is.
The musician, Aisylu Chizhevskaya Mingalim, tied the knot with her 22-year-old adopted son, Daniel Chizhevsky, at a restaurant in Kazan, Tatarstan Republic, Russia, on October 20th.
It was gathered that she adopted Daniel after meeting him at an orphanage home, where she was providing singing lessons when he was only 13, and started raising him at 14.
Their marriage didn’t sit well with the child welfare officials in her country, and they seized her five other adopted children, four girls, and one boy.
Meanwhile, Mingalim is fighting the move and lamented that some of her adopted children have been placed back into care homes, while others have returned to family members.
Speaking to local media, Mingalim, who has one biological son from her previous marriage, said her romance with Daniel started after she adopted him from the orphanage home.
Mingalim said: ‘Our relationship is perfect. We can’t live without each other. We are on the same wavelength.’
She is reportedly planning to flee Tartarstan to Moscow with her new husband where they can live freely, and regain custody of her adopted children from the authorities.
Controversial media personality, Blessing Okoro, better known as Blessing CEO, has dragged businessman Ikechuwku D. Ogbonna, better known as IVD, for ‘throwing her under the bus.’
Recall that Blessing became close to IVD after his wife Bimbo tragically passed away in a house fire in October 2022 during their troubled marriage.
At the time, she defended him against online criticisms and accused his deceased wife of being the toxic one in their relationship. They even sparked dating rumors when IVD tattooed her name on his hand.
However, the situation has now taken a turn, and Blessing is criticizing IVD for denying her claims that he informed her about popular singer Davido owing him money.
It all began when Blessing claimed that Davido is owing IVD N4.5 million for the Toyota Venza he gifted his logistics manager, Israel Afeare, last year.
IVD, on the other hand, went online to deny her statement, stating that Davido doesn’t owe him any money.
This clearly infuriated Blessing, and she released a voice note, purportedly of him confirming that Davido owed him.
In her latest post, she criticized IVD and recounted how their ‘friendship’ began, mentioning that he is only an illiterate that she was trying to help.
She added that she will continue to drop evidence against him until he publicly apologized to her for making a mockery of her in public.

In response to her outburst, IVD has now taken to his Instagram page to publicly apologize to Blessing.
He acknowledged that Davido owed him money but has since paid, and he apologized to Blessing for not informing her.
He wrote: “Blessing, sorry for not carrying you along that Davido has paid.”

Nigerian singer Stanley Omah Didia, better known as Omah Lay, has revealed that he stopped being blatantly religious after becoming wealthy.
The Afropop artist claimed that although he attended church frequently and was raised in a Christian environment, his upbringing had completely altered by the time he became famous.
Omah Lay declared that he no longer cares about religion and has chosen to concentrate on mankind in a recent interview with media personality Wunmi Bello.
He also disclosed that, despite coming from a Christian household, he had considered becoming an Islamist at one time.
The “Soso” crooner stated that although the lessons in the Holy Books seem genuine, he still doubts their accuracy
and believes in God.
Omah Lay said,
“As soon as I made money, I just switched; I just believed in God and became more human than religious. I don’t just enjoy religion anymore.
I grew up in a Christian home. I spent a lot of time in church. And at some point, I was going to convert to Islam. But now I’m at the point where it’s just me and God. Not religion. Because I really don’t know anything about religion. That’s the problem. These holy books and what everybody is saying, I know it sounds true but these are just books that I can not find evidence that this was written by God or his servants.
So, I just feel like I don’t know anything in as much as I know the bible, Jesus and Allah. But at the end, I don’t have evidence. The only evidence I have is that there’s a God who is moving me. I know that there must be something that’s somewhere that’s in charge of this whole thing. I believe it’s God.”
Controversial media personality, Blessing CEO, also known as Blessing Okoro, has leaked an alleged audio message from auto dealer IVD admitting that Davido owes him hours after denying claims that the singer owed him.
Recall that the relationship therapist had gone on the internet a few days prior to accuse Davido of owing 4.5 million naira for the Venza automobile he gave to his assistant, Israel DMW.
To the shock and disappointment of Blessing CEO, the car dealer, however, went on the internet and claimed that Davido owed him nothing.
This enraged Blessing, who promised to wage war against IVD for embarrassing her while trying to fight for him.
Blessing CEO took to social media to share a chat with IVD, where he sent her an audio message, admitting that the singer indeed owes him the money.
IVD noted in the conversation that the debt is a known fact and that he has attempted to contact the musician several times. Usually, he receives a response after two months, at which point the singer requests that he send his account information but never pays.
According to IVD in the recording, Davido had only paid 4 million naira for the automobile, which was less than the agreed-upon amount.

The video, which has since gone viral, resonates with many as it shows the need for a better approach to supporting new mothers.
The TikTok user passionately expressed her opinion, emphasizing that mothers-in-law should not view omugwo as a vacation for themselves, but rather as an opportunity to provide assistance and support.
She boldly challenged the notion that the son’s wife should not be responsible for household chores and cooking while recovering from childbirth, asserting that it is the mother-in-law’s role to lend a helping hand.
Not stopping there, she directed her message to men, urging them to stand up for their wives and ensure they are not overwhelmed with unnecessary stress during this delicate period.

Popular Nollywood actress,Nkechi Blessing-Sunday, has lambasted a troll who ridiculed her over her previous failed relationships.
The troll made an insensitive comment about the actress amid online speculations that she has broken up with her much-publicized partner, Xxssive.

A follower felt the actress went too far with the curse and said she should have focused on the mother, instead of her kids. In response, Nkechi also cursed the follower.
“Nkechi you should have just talk back at her, and let her kids out of it. Remember you’re a mum and u wouldn’t want
anyone to involve ur boy in anything,” the follower wrote.

Controversial Nigerian activist VeryDarkMan has taken to social media to share his thoughts on the University of Port Harcourt student, Justina Otuene, who was brutally murdered by her boyfriend.

VeryDarkMan captioned the video,
“You guys saw what the internet did to me last and they still do it to me, with all that who go want hustle? I don’t blame this guy oooo, the society permits it now, nobody cares how you make money just make it, your sister or brother might be next, keep fueling it”

These allegations have been circulating for a while, especially since the ‘Dumebi’ crooner began wearing a chain with a pendant featuring a burning church and an upside-down cross.

Read his full statement below,
“Day 1 Ravers, help me educate the new Ravers that I have been on this bat shit for a long time. You all would have so much clarity if you easily Google where I’m from, what the key colors of my heritage are, what flies in the skies of Benin every evening, etc.
“As I evolve, my execution will evolve unapologetically. Please know your artist. It is why I do interviews. And that Illuminati talk is trash. I work too hard to create art for you guys to give the glory to some diabolical shit. Dead it now. Jesus is King.”
Former first lady of Rivers State and a judge of the Rivers State High Court, Eberechi Wike, has called for a drastic measure to combat the rising cases of defilement of minors.
Mrs. Wike made her statement during the 2nd National Conference of Family Court Judges, Magistrates, and other Family Court Practitioners held in Port Harcourt, the state capital.
Expressing her concern, Mrs. Wike argued that the current punishment for offenders is not severe enough to serve as a deterrent.
She proposed the amputation of body parts used in the act of defilement as a potential solution to curb the menace.
The judge emphasized that implementing legislation to amputate the finger, mouth, or private parts of the offenders would make them think twice before committing such heinous crimes.
“We should do much more. I think we should do something that will be really drastic, that will make them think twice before they do that.
I cannot think of anything better than having legislation that whatever part of your body you use on a child while defiling the child, that part should be cut off.
If it is your finger, if it is your mouth, if it is your private part. I think men will take it more seriously when you come up with such legislation.
“I hope a man in the house of reps or senate sponsors a bill like that.” Mrs wike stated
The suggestion made by the former first lady and esteemed judge has sparked discussions and garnered attention from various quarters.
While some have commended her for advocating stronger measures to protect minors, others have expressed concerns about the practicality and implications of such legislation.
The issue of child defilement remains a pressing concern in Nigeria, with cases often going unreported or facing inadequate legal consequences.

When the boss returned, he expressed gratitude to Eric for his assistance and informed him that his brother’s kidney had failed, posing a grave risk to his life.
Seizing the opportunity, the boss made an astonishing proposition: he asked Eric if he would be willing to donate one of his kidneys.

Under the guise of a prayer, the boss allegedly applied a mysterious substance on Eric’s head and made grand promises.
He offered Eric a staggering sum of 20 million dollars, a house in America, and connections to wealthy individuals. Overwhelmed with excitement, Eric agreed.
Following numerous medical tests that confirmed their kidney compatibility, Eric underwent the operation.
However, since the transplant, he claims to have received no further medical treatment or the promised compensation.
He told me that he would give me 20million dollars , buy a house for me in America and connect me to his rich friend in America where I would be driving big cars. I was excited.
“Thereafter, he called his brother to inform him that I had agreed to donate one of my kidneys to him. They took me to the hospital , I did many tests and the doctors said my kidney matched his brother’s.
“I was admitted for three days and on the agreed day, the operation was done. They gave me some medicine. But since 2018 till date, I have not been receiving treatment.
Instead, his boss instructed him to resume work at the office, with a nominal monthly salary and warnings of deductions for health-related absences.
A week after my boss rented an apartment for me, he directed me to resume work in the office, and that I would be paid N70,000 a month. He warned that anytime I failed to come to work over health issues , he would deduct N30,000 from my salary. Even when I complained that I was weak, he would shout at me, saying I could survive with one kidney.
Eric, now frail and desperate, has reached out to his mother for help, who pleads for the boss to fulfill his promises and provide her son with the necessary medical assistance.
At the moment, my son cannot walk . He needs medical help. He has lost so much weight . I am only requesting that Mr Steve should help my son survive like his brother. Yes , we are poor, but I believe the AIG will help us get justice”, she said.
According to Tony Dania, the victim’s counsel, during the victim’s stay at Saint Nicholas Hospital, his boss’s younger sister, identified as Deborah, pretended to be his wife.
After a surgery performed by Dr. Gbagboye on December 22, 2018, the boss, Steve, arranged for an apartment for the victim and instructed him to stay away from the family.
A concerned individual took them to Zone 2 Police Command, where the police were informed and instructed to arrest Steve.
Dania emphasized that this case should serve as a precedent, as organ sales are illegal and criminal. He argued that Deborah’s act of signing as the victim’s wife was forgery, and the victim’s consent, obtained without proper understanding, should not be valid.
Dania stressed the importance of obtaining a donor’s consent for any surgery and claimed that the victim was deceived into signing the consent documents without being aware of their contents.
Legal counsel for Eric reveals that the victim’s boss has been arrested and is under interrogation.
In a thought-provoking video, a Nigerian female Tik Tok user has sparked a conversation about the traditional practice of omugwo, challenging the expectations placed on African women during their postpartum period.
The video, which has since gone viral, resonates with many as it shows the need for a better approach to supporting new mothers.
The TikTok user passionately expressed her opinion, emphasizing that mothers-in-law should not view omugwo as a vacation for themselves, but rather as an opportunity to provide assistance and support.
She boldly challenged the notion that the son’s wife should not be responsible for household chores and cooking while recovering from childbirth, asserting that it is the mother-in-law’s role to lend a helping hand.
Not stopping there, she directed her message to men, urging them to stand up for their wives and ensure they are not overwhelmed with unnecessary stress during this delicate period.
She suggested that if a man’s mother plans to visit as a vacation, it would be more appropriate to invite the wife’s mother instead, so that she can offer the much-needed support.
The TikTok video has sparked conversations across various social media platforms, with many applauding the user for shedding light on a topic that often goes unaddressed.

Controversial media personality, Blessing CEO, also known as Blessing Okoro, has accused singer Davido of failing to pay the balance of the brand new Toyota Venza he gifted to his personal logistics manager, Israel DMW, in 2022.
She made this allegation while criticizing Very Dark Man over his recent interview with Micee, an associate of the late singer Mohbad.
In the interview, Micee accused the singer’s wife, Wunmi, of various misdeeds, including alleged sexual relations with his female manager and someone else in the Marlian Music house.
The interview didn’t sit well with Blessing CEO and she urged Very Dark Man to let Wunmi mourn her husband in peace.
She also criticized him for remaining silent about the recent controversy surrounding Davido, who was accused of owing people millions of naira, despite always jumping on celebrity gists.
According to Blessing, Very Dark Man has refrained from addressing the debt saga because Davido invited him to Lagos, paid for a luxurious hotel room, and hung out with him.
Blessing further told Very Dark Man to relay the message to Davido about paying the N4.5 million balance for the Toyota Venza he gifted to Israel in January 2022.
The mother of two reportedly obtained this information from her embattled friend and car dealer, IVD, from whom Davido purchased the car.
She wrote,
“Addressing very dark black d!!!rty boys recent interview with mohbad so called friend. Oga leave the young widow to breath, no be everybody be ashawo wey sell preek no blow like u.
