2 days ago, Social Media in Kenya was on fire after the story of a Kenyan rogue cop trended. The said cop went all ballistic on his girlfriend after they broke up.
Identified as Nur Nucho, the said Police Officer stationed at Korogocho, is said to have fallen out with his girlfriend Carol a few days ago, a move that left him a bitter man, Tuko.Co.ke reports.

Seven fake credit cards were found in the pockets of Dammy Krane on 1 June when he was arrested at Opa-locka Executive Airport in Miami Dade, Florida.
According to the New Miami Time, police have now slammed a nine count felony charge at Miami Dade’s criminal court for credit card forgery and grand theft against the 23 year-old pop artist, whose real name is Oyindamola Emmanuel Johnson-Hunga.
Dammy Krane’s trouble began after he used a bogus card to book a private jet flight to Washington, D.C., police said. When the police searched him, they found seven false credit cards in his wallet, according to the police report, details of which Miami New Times published today.
Agents from the mobile-phone booking app TapJets had called police, when they found that the first card Dammy Krane tendered was bogus. The jet company told Miami-Dade Police that Krane and a partner, Chukwuebuka Ilochonwu, had booked a $10,943 trip on a jet from Opa-locka to Washington, D.C.
Krane lists a permanent U.S. address in Baltimore on the police report, according to the report by Miami New Times.
Two MDPD officers staked out the jet runway until Krane and Ilochonwu showed up. Police searched the pair and found seven cards in Krane’s pants pocket.
When authorities checked the cards later, all seven had numbers on the face that didn’t match the numbers on the security strip on the back.
MDPD says Krane used one of those cards to book his flight and then gave TapJet two other fake cards when he was asked for backup cards for the travel.
His co-defendant, Ilochonwu, police soon learned, was out on bond on four other credit card fraud charges.
He’d been arrested in April on felony charges stemming from a case in Miami Beach.
Dammy Krane who is now out on bail has tried to exculpate himself from the arrest mess, blaming “agents” and assuring fans he’s innocent.
“I do not partake in fraud,”I do not partake in such activities. Agents booked my flights with fraudulent cards.”
“My life is all about my music, and that’s what I’m all about,” he says. “I’m sorry I got caught up in this mess.”

According to Vanguard, He said his wife only wants Nigerians to have sympathy for him as She did not know that he was into kidnapping.
He said he only told her that he is into drug, which she advised him to stop because it is dangerous.

“I believe in God, that was why I mandated my wife to always wake my children up for prayers. My favourite bible passage is Psalm 23. My wife does not know why I loved the Psalm so much. I loved it because of the sins I have committed. I always asked my children to ask for forgiveness for me and also pray that I should not die young.
“I believe in God, because he’s the only one that can save me from the problem I find myself in. I believe it was greed that pushed me into kidnapping. I don’t believe in Juju.”

“They take good care of me. I cannot blame them if they did not take care of me because I am the cause of my problem. I am reaping what I sowed.

“I did not enjoy all the money I made from kidnapping because I was always on the run. I am regretting my actions in life. I did not go to clubs, hotels because I was afraid that policemen would come after me. If I am given a second chance, I would be the most grateful person on earth and I promise to be an advocate of anti-kidnapping in the country.”

The new policy was said to have been implemented in 2015 but most of the workers only got to know this year as they were meant to believe it was a salary increment.
As a result, they embark on a strike but After unfruitful consultations with the leaders of the workers union, the management wielded the big stick today by firing all of them and asked those still interested in keeping their jobs to reapply.

Veteran Comedian, Alibaba has taken to his Instagram page to fire back at those who frown at people especially artistes who post lounging pictures during week days.
He said that not all hustlers do a 9-5 job and added that the issue of occupational selfishness has become a major issue in relationships too.
He wrote:
Last time I posted my feet on my table, one guy commented that it was a bad habit and “very unexemplifying”. I still didnt get it. He said Monday when people are just resuming work, I’m posting picture of my feet on my table and lounging. As I post this again, I need to mention, we are not all 9 to 5 hustlers. Some of us actually are nocturnal by occupation. Some people only need 2 days in a week to make what you work for in a month. But that is not what this post is about. What I am trying to tell you is that, it also burns my soul to see that you guys can take a Saturday and a Sunday to go to the beach or resorts… Or any place of recreation. And while you are there, I am either behind a microphone, acting, writing and being creative anywhere my services are needed. Then you post your pictures of #aboutlastnight #weekendonflick… I no call police. But as soon as anyone shows that they were having fun while you were working, it irks you. Isn’t that selfish? There are different occupational timings for all walks of life. Night soil men can lounge in the day. Maigaurds can afford to sleep in the afternoon because when darkness falls, DUTY calls. An artiste comes alive at weekends. That’s why it is usually insensitive when old school associations and kparakpor groups fix meetings at weekends and expect everyone to attend because they believe work ends at COB on Friday and resumes on Monday. Thus making them believe anyone who did not attend the meetings is refusing to be seen with them. How would they feel if I fix an association meeting at 10am on a Monday or Wednesday Morning? This issue of occupational selfishness has become a major issue in relationships too. Ladies be dating a 9 To 5 guy and break it up. Then starts dating an artiste. She will say “we don’t spend time together”. You must be joking. You should actually pray you don’t see him at weekends!! How would you feel if he says he doesn’t see much of you Mondays to Fridays? To go to movies and clubs. To each it’s kind. The bible says don’t be unevenly yolked. Understanding lo matter. Know what the person you want does before saying yes. Don’t come and be doing autocorrect in people’s career.
One of the policemen who was part of the team that stormed the Magodo residence of notorious kidnap kingpin, Evans, on 10th of June, Livinus Michael praises God for sparing his life.

Abba K lead us to arrest the notorious and richest kidnapper Evans in which I sustained injury in the cause of his arrest but thank God I’m ok now.

Again, it seems controversial journalist, Kemi Olunloyo has turned a new leaf, after she had her fair share of the prison experience.
She previously thanked blogger, Linda Ikeji for donating N100,000 to her, for her legal expenses. Now, she’s making peace with those she previously had feud with.. One of which is actress, Georgina Onuoha.
Recall they both had a brutal war on Social Media.. You can check the details Here,here, here and here
She shared a screenshot of a chat in which she apologized to Georgina Onuoha and also had the below to say on Instagram.
I have made peace with my junior sister @GeorginaOnuoha. Many of you may remember that she wrote the Nigerian Feds advocating my relesse. While I was locked up, @Ibinabofiberisima visited me in prison and told me that she watched our online beef for two months. Fiberisima also mentioned that Georgina was a nice girl if I get to know her. .
.
I don’t hate Nollywood actresses. I was in the middle of many investigations and Georgina was in one of them. She proved herself right and some antagonism got involved during the process. As a Journalist I investigate things thoroughly with newsmakers involved also avoiding them creating an “element of suspicion”. Many do not answer and ignore me, others do. .
.
The internet is inundated with #fakenews. Many about me and my family even Georgina found and posted. The message here is simple. We shouldn’t believe anything we read online and that’s why I go to newsmakers to confirm or deny stories. Georgina’s DM to me is attached. She has gone thru a lot in life and so have I.
Remember the devil is working overtime…But he’s a LIAR. Ibinabo and @Toyin_Abraham thank you for your wisdom and lovely DM’s.

Big Brother Naija ex-housemate, and runner-up, Bisola Aiyeola sat down with NAIJ and she spoke about life after the reality TV show.
The actresses who says she’d also delve into the music industry too, has revealed that N15,000 hindered her from going to the university.
Here are Excerpts from the interview below;
Looking back at Big Brother Naija…
I wanted that platform. I wanted that wide reach. People send me messages from Kenya, South Africa, Uganda, etc. on a normal day, before I entered the house, how many people would have known me? So yes, even though I did not win, I feel like I achieved my aim. Even if I won that money, It would still finish.
Why she did not attend university
‘I wrote Jamb and I was jammed. It’s not like I did not try. I tried so many schools all over the country. It’s not that I wasn’t passing the exams; it was a problem of not getting funds. I did not have money to pay for certain things. I was even duped when I tried to enter LASU. That pulled me back and all this just made me discouraged. I also tried National Open University (NOUN) and you know it is very easy to get into NOUN, and at certain times you needed to pay certain fees. Believe me; it was difficult to raise N15, 000 at that time. I just decided that all of my energy let me use it into using my talent to feed myself.’
How she used to go to her neighbor’s house to ‘stylishly’ ask for food because she and her daughter had nothing to eat
Sometimes when there was no food to eat at home, I take my daughter to my neighbor’s house under the pretext of watching television and stylishly feed my daughter and myself. That’s why I can relate to people because when you are down, you are down. But one cannot just stay down. I would love to help people get out of this type of situation.
Her plans for the future:
I have so many things lined up. Obviously I want to do more movies and music too. I did get into the entertainment industry via music but I put it on hold for a couple of years so I’m going to revamp that access. I also want to make my own films in future and I‘m an ambassador for the One Campaign Poverty is Sexist so I will be pursuing that as well.

“I was not happy with my father, that was why I don’t go close to him but I made sure I provided all his needs. I bought him a car and a bus. They are in our compound and I also gave him N3 million which he used for his pig and fish farming business.
According to him, he used to help his family members a lot including children of his father’s other wives, stating that his father lived a wayward life that made him divorce his mother.
He continued “I know I have done terrible things but I want to be forgiven. I also want to advise other criminals to turn a new leaf. The Nigeria Police is not what it used to be. They are far more advanced than they were. If they could arrest me, there is no criminal they can’t arrest, “he stated.

The suspects have since been identified as Chinonye Okere, Joy Ama, Eucheria Amadi, Pauline Uzoamaka and Nnenne Okere.

Ezike described the suspects as a chain, whose act could best be described as shameful.
“In the 21st Century when people are engaging in productive activities, like going to the moon, these ones are shamelessly engaging in buying and selling of God’s beautiful creation.
“To learn that they sold this handsome child for a pittance of N600,000 is most annoying and shameful.
“We will not spare them. We will arraign them in court on Monday (today) for them to answer their charges. The gang is a criminal chain and we will ensure that the law takes its full cost,” he said.
Responding to a question, Ezike said the police officer identified as Felix, whom the suspects accused of being part of the gang, was facing an orderly room trial and would be dismissed and charged to the court if found guilty of being part of the child-trafficking syndicate.
When interviewed, the prime suspect, Okere, who allegedly stole the child at a funeral ceremony confessed to the crime, but stated that one police man, Felix, planned and executed the criminal act with her.
She said that her husband and one other person she named as being part of the crime, Rose, were on the run.
The alleged buyer, 55-year-old Uzoamaka, who told newsmen that she lived in Lagos, said she bought the child for N600,000 from 54 year-old Mrs. Amadi in Nnewi, Anambra State in April.

Big Brother Naija 2017 contestants, Tokunbo Idowu aka TBoss and Ekemini Ekerette aka Kemen, have finally reconciled.
The peace meeting was organized by journalist, Azuka Ogujiuba and Charles Opaleke, a night club owner in Abuja, and it of course brought an end to the lingering quarrel between the duo who were both housemates in the last edition of the Big Brother Naija.
They had not spoken to each other since they all returned from South Africa, where the reality show took place.
While in the Big Brother House, Kemen was alleged to have attempted to assault Kemen sexually and was disqualified from the show.
Returning to Nigeria, Tboss had granted an interview to Ebuka Obi-Uchendu and declared she would never talk to Kemen again!
She said in the TV programme ‘Rubbin Minds,”
“I considered Kemen a friend. He was my go-to guy. He was my buddy, my muscle. He encouraged me. He motivated me. So for what happened to have happened considering all the people that look up to me, it was sad. I was angry.
I was humiliated and I did feel violated but I don’t play the victim card. I honestly think that the decision that Big Brother took was the only decision that could have been taken. And everything that Kemen has to say about that, na him get him mouth, e fit use am talk wetin him wan talk but he knows and we know.”
Asked if she had seen Kemen after Big Brother House and pretty Tboss said,
“I have seen him a few times but I really don’t want to talk to him because honestly the day you (Ebuka) came into the house with Karen, I was thinking what would happen if I see Kemen because I thought there would be a party after then. I just wanted to slap him. I think I even said that but then I came out and I said you know what everyone can make mistake because I am an attractive person but then, I come out and I hear the interviews he has given, today he makes an apology and then tomorrow he comes out to say TBoss knows what happened and that if there was no N25 million involved, hopefully she would tell the truth. What truth are you talking about? You are contradicting yourself. And then you are calling me? He has called me like over 15-20 times but I don’t want to speak to him. I am not ready because if I talk, I would say the wrong things. I want to calm down.”
However, the peace meeting which took place in the early hours of Monday, June 19, in an Abuja club settled all scores and Tboss was seen in a video talking with Kemen.
The duo spoke for some minutes before taking several pictures together.

I paid all I was asked to pay. I mean,I was ready to spend my last cash on this little man ( his name ) NAJIB. I took full responsibility and did all she asked for. I was the best father to this little man,she didn’t lack noting,any of my friends then will complain my spending on this Evil Lady.
Happiness went sore on that Monday morning when I took my brother @iamstanchesta he came from Nigeria to Ghana just to see my son, nigga was so happy he thought he was already someone’s uncle and then the whole truth unveiled. He was never my son, NAJIB was never my son.
Girls can be so devilish.Don’t just be fast to judge me if I act like an asshole towards you. Trust me I seen the dark side.
Happy Father’s Day to all the amazing dad out there please try go for DNA be sure that child is yours.U won’t be happy to walk my path. #beenhurt#amstrong #shouldhavebeenadadbynow#sad #lofegoeson”.
A pervert rugby player was duped into thinking he was meeting a 13-year-old girl by paedophile hunters after chatting to her about sex.
After she told him she was a virgin, Joe Snowdon told the “girl” he would like to do “more than kiss her”.
But in fact, he had been talking to members of Dark Justice, a group who trap would-be paedophiles before alerting the police who swoop in to make an arrest. The Chronicle Live reports.
A court heard the 24-year-old started chatting to “Amanda” on adult social networking site Skout, and then moved on to private conversations over WhatsApp.
Kidnap kingpin, Evans has taken Police officers from the Federal Anti-kidnapping Unit to the houses he detained and kept his victims.
The buildings are located in Igando and Ejigbo areas of Lagos State.
While speaking to newsmen, Evans said that his arrest would mean the beginning of the end of kidnapping in Nigeria as his gang is the most sophisticated in the ‘business’.
Evans was arrested on June 10, along with six suspected top members of his gang at Magodo Estate in Lagos.
His arrest followed “an intense gun battle” with the Joint Special Forces led by the Intelligence Response Team, the Lagos State Police Command’s Anti-Kidnapping Unit and Technical and Intelligent Unit of the Force under the supervision of the Commissioner of Police, Lagos State.
They were paraded at the headquarters of the Lagos State Police Command by the Force Public Relations Officer, CSP Jimoh Moshood.
