Justice Rita Ofili-Ajumugobia was granted bail on Saturday evening after detectives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) searched her home in Lagos.
When the agents were done with their search, the Federal High Court judge was weeping like a baby. The EFCC found several documents showing the judge had bought homes abroad and also recently, on Park Avenue in Ikoyi, this is according to a report by Sahara Reporters.
The most damning document shows that the judge, who once freed former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode on a technicality over corruption charges, had wired at least $900,000 to foreign banks between 2014-2016.
She could not explain the source of the funds to investigators, who asked her to return to their offices on Monday. Justice Ofili-Ajumogobia turned herself in to the EFCC on Thursday after she was traced to a hospital in Lagos where she had claimed she was admitted.
As soon as the detectives found out her admission was fake, they arrested the medical director of the hospital, which led the judge to surrender. Justice Ofili-Ajumogobia is one of the 8 judges currently under investigation by the EFCC for various corruption issues.

That exactly is what one Princess Adaeze Millerand did. The lady whose profile says ‘lives in Paris’ made a video begging Naija street rap star, Olamide Badoo to grant her audience for just one hour.
She said she had seen Olamide before in Dubai, but she could not get an audience with him then.
In the 1.50-minute-video, Adaeze Millerand who studied in Yabatech also enumerated the reason she is so in love with Olamide, to include his simplicity, his swag, his being down to earth.
“Hi, My name is Princess, I just wanna say that… I wish, I hope, I pray that I have a date with Olamide one day. He is my crush, I like him so much. I like him, he is just so simple, he doesn’t form. Among all the musicians, he is the only one I like. I don’t wanna date him, I don’t wanna have any thing with him. I just wanna go out with him, have a cup of drink or coffee, take pictures and that’s it. I just want to see him, I met him once in Dubai, but it was from afar.I just took pictures. He was on stage in Kiza, I just wanna see him. I like him so much,” the lady who appears to also run a charity organisation begged in the slightly emotional video.
“Olamide I like you, you are my crush. Now you have this tattoo, I love it. Please Olamide, wherever you are, I want to sit with you for one hour, just one hour please. I am begging you, I am begging you please. Oh my God. Like like like, I like everything about you. I like your swag everything about you. What kills me the most is your sexy eyes. Love you. I wanna go on a date with you. Just one day, just one hour please… Thank you. O my God… please please please.”
A Facebook user, Bello Anny, took to her page to give a shocking claim that the RCCG pastor named Clifford Ojugo, in the photo above, did this to his maid(left) because she told a lie.
Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, have debunked the claims by Fani-Kayode’s media aide, Jude Ndukwe, that the former Spokesperson to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan’s campaign Organisation, Chief Femi Fani Kayode slumped yesterday at their premises.
However in a quick rebuttal, the EFCC dismissed Ndukwe’s claims, saying there was no truth whatsoever to them. EFCC spokesman, Wilson Uwujaren said:
“There is no truth whatsoever in the dubious and attention-seeking alarm that Fani-Kayode slumped and was revived by EFCC medical personnel. There was nothing like that as the said Fani-Kayode and Obanikoro sat together and enjoyed their jokes at the first round of checks of inmates in EFCC custody on Monday night.”
The Group General Manager, Crude Oil Marketing Department of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), Mele Kyari, has said that the sale of petrol at N145 per litre is not sustaining due to the current economic recession.
Kyari stated this while speaking at the 10th Oil Trading and Logistics Africa Downstream Week in Lagos.
According to Kyari, the current economic downturn has made it impossible to import petroleum products at the current market price and at the current fixed foreign exchange rate and still make profit as well as recovered the capital invested in importation.
He said despite the harsh realities surrounding importation, government isn’t planning on increasing the pump price of petrol.
“It is impossible for this government to announce tomorrow that petrol is about N150. This government cannot sustain it. That is the truth. The people will not take that number. But that is why the suppliers now are not importing. It is not about the foreign exchange. We are in subsidy regime absolutely, there is no way you bring product today and take it and sell at N145 and get back your money, and make profit. That is not possible. You can see some marketers saying that fuel is N138. It is because they did not import. Somebody has taken the heat of the price”he said

Ailing actor, Tunde Alabi’s leg reportedly amputated in Lagos hospitalBy Danielle Ogbeche on October 22, 2016.
Despite his plea to well-meaning Nigerians to come to his rescue, legendary Nollywood actor, Tunde Alabi, who has been battling an ailment at the Lagos General Hospital, got his leg amputated.
His right leg was reportedly amputated on Thursday.
Recall that the ‘Village Headmaster’ actor, had been battling diabetes for years with no treatment because of lack of money and had been lying critically ill with one of his legs set for amputation in order to save his life.
While Alabi had called on Nigerians to support him, saying he did not want to die, renowned actor and movie director, Paul Julius, among others, had urged well-meaning Nigerians to come to the actor’s aid financially.
According to Yoruba Movie Gist, YMG, doctors advised that the leg be cut off so it won’t affect other parts of his body.
‘So sad! Our Veteran Actor’s foot finally AMPUTATED…..I’ve laboured through thick and thin to save the life of Uncle Tunde….assisted vigorously by the indefatigable Chairman of Actors Guild of Nigeria, Lagos State Chapter, Mr. DON PEDRO AGANBI and through the contributions of a few spirited colleagues and fans, we were only able to manage to keep him alive but not with his full body as our once vibrant UNCLE TUNDE ALABI loses his right foot today at General Hospital, Lagos to Diabetes Mellitus. Now he’s faced with another battle for survival…..Expensive drugs required to heal the amputated leg……no home to return, no money to afford one as his ailment has suck up his entire finances. We have done our best… …What would you rather do to assist him….just put something in his account no matter how small and the Lord will reward you abundantly. Thank you.
In an official statement released on Monday night by Jude Ndukwe, the Special Assistant to the embattled Femi Fani-Kayode on Media, raised an alarm that the former Minister of Aviation, slumped in the custody of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on Saturday.
It was reported that the operatives of the EFCC had last Friday re-arrested Fani-Kayode outside the premises of the Federal High Court on Oyinkan Abayomi Drive, Ikoyi, Lagos after attending his trial over an alleged fraud of N4.9bn before Justice Muslim Hassan.
According to a report by Punch newspaper, Ndukwe in the statement disclosed that his boss who was arrested as soon as he stepped out of the courtroom after the judge had adjourned further proceedings in his trial till November 14 and 15, 2016, had been on medication.
He said, “Although Chief Femi Fani-Kayode had yet to complete the recovery therapy he was undergoing after spending the initial 67 gruelling days in the EFCC custody wherein he was also physically attacked by one of the commission’s agents, in deference to the law and the Commission, he painfully but willingly cut short his therapy and medical checks to attend court proceedings.
“One would have thought that these were enough to convince EFCC that Fani-Kayode was very willing to face his persecutors in court. But rather than be humane in their conduct, the EFCC hounded him for the umpteenth time on that fateful Friday and have since kept him in custody.
“It is, therefore, little wonder that based on the history of his medical condition which the commission is very much aware of, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode slumped while in detention on Saturday, October 22, 2016.”
The Commissioner of Police in charge of Abia State Police Command, Adeleye Oyebade, on Monday paraded a suspected rapist, identified as Emeka Asibiriobwu, who was accused of defiling a two-year-old girl kept under his care.
Oyebade said the suspect was arrested by the officers of the Abia State Command of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps in Umuahia. He said the suspect, who was still being investigated by policemen had raped the girl at Oriendu, a suburb of the state capital.
The Commissioner said, “The suspect was arrested when the mother of the victim raised the alarm on sighting her daughter crying, while blood and fluid were gushing out of her private parts.
“The victim was taken to a hospital where the rape case was established. The suspect has confessed to the crime and will be arraigned in court after the conclusion of police investigation.”
Awele & Ademola got married a few weekends ago and our dear photographer Seun Kilanko covered the event.
“This is a couple who is truly in love. Awele is an epitome of simplicity and with a very bright spirit. Her smile is so contagious. Ademola on the other hand is one groom with an overload of swags.
Shooting their wedding was fun in all sense of it. A cool, calm and collected couple like is all a photographer prays for. Enjoy.” he told us!
Here is the story of how they met:
From the Bride (Awele) –
The first time I met him was in part One in OAU Architecture. He walked up to me after the year dinner and told me he was going to take me home to his mama, lol! But that was because I had just received the award ‘take home to mama’ at the dinner.
We became friends after with him being a matchmaker a couple of times,*grin!*
By the time we were registering for our masters, it felt different with him, we got closer and practically spent the whole two years as study partners, eating and spending too much time together, friends didn’t believe we were just friends (hahahaha! really who were we kidding?).
After school he moved to lagos (whoop! whoop!) to my surprise as he initially wanted to settle in abj. And we started officially thereafter (come to think of it, I don’t think he waited for my answer to his ‘will you be my girlfriend?’ Smh, I almost chocked on my ice cream and we laughed ourselves to tears)
He got back from the UK early last year and I was very eager to see him; he had been quiet all through his trip and wasn’t calling as often, so I was ready to go read him the riot act as soon as I sighted him, only for him to cut me short.
He wanted to take me back to my place immediately! I hadn’t spent up to 30mins and I was only just about to dish it out, oh I wanted to wipe the smirk off his face all through the drive home.
He not only dropped me, he went in and had a long talk with my mum. The sleuth in me was blinded by confusion, I immediately called.my friend (who already knew what was happening, by the way) she was so sure I was blowing things out of proportion, I was not liking any of it.
He went home without a word and later called to talk to me some days later and insisted I came over, so I went ready. I didn’t see it coming: he saw me, came out to the sitting room, knelt and opened the box and I had to be held as I leapt to the door. I didn’t say yes until I had finished crying, taken ice cream and called my mum and friends!
From the groom (Ademola) –
“It was in the year 2006, crossing from Medical school to the Department of Architecture in the previous year was the toughest decision I had to make and inspite of the hard work and focus my transition required, I noticed a beautiful young lady, gentle as a morning dew, so good looking like a quiet sunset. However, like I said, I had to focus.
In 2007, the moment I had she was crowned “Miss Take-home-to-mama” at an award ceremony the precious night, I walked up to her and teased her; “Hmmmmm…I’m gonna take you home to mama”… (and the angel of goodwill passed).
In 2010, we met again during the course of our registration for Masters in Architecture, where we assisted each other, and that friendship and companionship lasted throughout our entire 2 years of Masters study period.
Fast forward 6 years, she became a great colleague, amazing friend who could sacrifice anything for me, my best friend who kept every secret and never judged, my girlfriend who loved unconditionally and forgave completely in our trying times, my fiancee who my goals and visions, and now my loving wife, which is the greatest gift I could have ever asked of God. I’m yet to come to my consciousness as this still feels like a dream. I’m married to my best friend…what a wonderful feeling!”
We wish the beautiful couple a happy married life!
Lol. Student proposing to a student! Oh well..To much excitement perhaps.
A student of Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta (FUNAAB) proposed to his longtime girlfriend (also a Funaabite) at Motion Ground within the school premises last week.
The girl who wore matching native attire with her man -was reportedly shy after the shock proposal but of course, she said YES. Congrats to them.
But Nigerians are saying they should face their books instead of planning engagement!
The fast rising “Godwin” crooner who received heavy backlash after wearing this denim jumpsuit to the MAMA awards on Saturday, has embraced the criticisms with a warm hug as he dubs himself your ‘Mechanic Crush’.
Take it or leave it, ladies still like him looking like a cute plumber or mechanic or carpenter, abi artisan to sum it all up… cause he looks like every one of them.
You certainly must have came across the name online, one way or the other but “King Tblak” is quite an infamous name as he is one of the country’s most active pimp on social media… posting x-rated photos on his social media accounts and all…
The proud pimp and soft porn star took to his Instagram page to to address religion and rant on the nonexistence of God. Pictured above is King Tblak holding a Bible with two of his girls kneeling down half naked.
Smartphones have come a long way in terms of design, camera, or even processing power. However, we have not seen much breakthroughs when it comes to battery technology.
That said, here we have listed out some lesser known tricks that will help you get the most out of your smartphone battery:
1. Turn off vibration and haptic feedback
We like the mild vibrations while typing on the smartphone keyboard. But they absorb a good amount of battery because we spend a lot of time on typing throughout the day.
Besides, if you don’t need to get notified by vibration, then turn the `haptic feedback’ off as it actually takes more battery power to vibrate your phone than it does to ring it.
Nothing good comes from cheating on your spouse. Nothing. Hurt feelings, betrayed trust and heartbreak are unavoidable.
There is no situation or excuse that will soften the blow when the people you love find out what you did. Do these five things to make sure you don’t ever cheat:
1. Make the commitment
Don’t ever let cheating cross your mind. Talk to your spouse often about being faithful in your relationships. Commit to never getting close with someone romantically.
Always wear your wedding ring to remind yourself and to alert others that you are in a faithful relationship. Talk to your spouse about what cheating means to you both as a couple.
Is it flirting with someone? Going out to lunch with someone? Setting clear boundaries for your relationship will help prevent either of you from crossing the line.
Love really knows no bounds. This couple pulled massive attention at their traditional wedding ceremony which was held recently in Akwa Ibom state.
According to reports gathered online, what interested the guests at the wedding, was the way the bride comported herself -giving her man maximum respect at the event.
Men are known to be very good at observing ladies when they are attracted to them. These are some things a man can notice about a woman in a few minutes.
“Just the kind of drink you choose or the amount of cleavage you show can make a huge difference”
1. Sunny smile:
The way you smile can say a lot about the person you are. Make sure that if you are meeting a guy for the first time you are don’t come across as someone who’s eager to please him and therefore is laughing at all his jokes a tad too enthusiastically.
At the same time don’t appear too stern by keep a serious face.
2. Dress it up:
What you wear is obviously one of the first things that a guy is likely to judge you on. Whether you are a tom boy or a girly girl… all is revealed by the way you dress and most guys will decide whether to make a move or back off just by looking at the way you dress.
Romantic relationships can be wonderful with the right person; however, a relationship with the wrong individual can lead to years of heartache, emotional damage and even physical damage. If you’re wondering if your girlfriend is really the one you should be with, here are 10 signs that will definitely help you decipher if you’re possibly dating the wrong woman.
1. She doesn’t show affection
If you’re in a situation where your woman just sits there and does nothing when you attempt to touch her and caress her or you’re always the one who initiates the hand holding or hugs first, something is definitely wrong.
Dating is all about give and take and relationships are a constant compromise, BUT you shouldn’t always have to be the one to initiate everything and generally, being able to show affection should come naturally and not be a forced thing for a person.

Operatives of the Special Fraud Unit (SFU) in Lagos have arrested a suspected fraudster, Babatunde Oyedepo, popularly known as Baudex on IG, for allegedly attempting to swindle businessman Femi Otedola.
The Nation reports that Oyedepo, 23, was alleged to have sent threat and blackmail messages to the complainants and other high profile Nigerians through a website, naijagistlive.com, demanding huge sums of money.
Oyedepo, a resident of Sixth Avenue in Festac Town, was alleged to have posted a superimposed nude pictures of a lawyer on his website, alleging that she had been sleeping with her boss and other clients.
According to the police, the suspect demanded N3.5million from the lawyer to remove the inappropriate picture from the site, which the victim could not afford.
A police officer who spoke on condition of anonymity said
“The victim had allegedly told the suspect that she has no such money in her account and that the picture posted on the website had cost her, her job, her marriage and her social life. The lawyer is among the three different persons who petitioned the suspect.”
Spokesman for SFU, Lawal Audu said the suspect has three different cases pending before the unit, adding that the first two involved fraud and threat to life.
According to Audu, on October 19th, one Dapo Balogun reported a case of extortion, black mail and threat to life against the suspect.
“The complainant claimed that the suspect had posted on naijagistlife a story alleging that he had worked with former Petroleum Minister, Deziani Allison-Maduekwe and that throughout the period he had fraudulently acquired huge sum of money. The complainant also claimed to have received a mail from the suspect, informing him that he should pay an undisclosed amount running into millions to enable him remove the provocative story from the site.
He alleged that since then he had been receiving threat messages from unknown callers demanding huge sum or risk being being kidnapped. The second complainant is Femi Otedola. He claimed that the suspect posted an annoying story on the same website accusing him of sleeping with different girls in his office. The suspect has another fraud case pending at the Federal High court.”
The suspect however denied being responsible for the actions, insisting that he was framed by the owners of the website which he only designed. The school dropout who claimed to be a website designer, said that he was contacted through email to design the website.
He said:
“I design websites for people and after designing the site I will include my contacts in the website to attract other customers. I was arrested through my contact on naijagistlive.com.

Nigerian singer, Yemi Alade threw a mild jibe at President Muhammadu Buhari in her speech at the 2016 MTV Africa Music Awards (MAMA) held on October 22, 2016.
Alade, who won an award for the Best Female Artiste at the event gave a soft remark of the president’s comments stating that his wife, Aisha belongs in the kitchen.
While receiving her award at the Ticketpro Dome, Johannesburg, she said, “Give it up to all the African women in the building.
“We’re not meant for the kitchen alone, we are not meant for the living room alone, we are not meant for the other room alone.
“We are hardworking women and we belong to the society too.
“If not, I won’t be here receiving this award.”
The singer was one of the artistes expected to go home with an award for their exceptional performances in their music career.
Another big winner at the event was Wizkid, who received awards for the African Artiste of the Year, Best Male Artiste and Best Collaboration.
Davido has shown that he takes his father duties as seriously as he handles his music career, as seen in cute video footage with his daughter.
The singer was captured in the opening scene of the footage dressing up the little girl who laid innocently on a bed.

The father and daughter moment was extended to the singer’s Instagram where he posted a picture of the both of them with the caption “Twin twin” and a love emoticon.
Prophet Ade Okeowo of Word of Liberty Evangelical Ministry, Ikorodu, Lagos State, has made interesting prophecies about Nigeria.
The prophet revealed that Nigeria will soon experience a turnaround as prices on commodities will crash in no time, stating that God did not, however, specify that the revelation would come to pass under President Muhammadu Buhari’s regime.
He specifically mentioned that God told him the cost of bag of rice and fuel, will be drastically reduced.
He made this revelation in a chat with Encomium, urging Nigerians to stop casting blames on President Buhari, as he needed time to fix the country.
He said, “That’s what God has revealed to me. Listen to me attentively; I am not speaking my words but God’s.
“Now, people buy rice N25, 000 per bag but God told me that we’re going to buy a bag of rice as cheap as N5, 000. A US dollar will exchange for as low as N150 and fuel will sell for as low as N30 or N40 per litre. That’s what God said will happen in this country.”
Asked if his prophecies will come to pass during Buhari’s administration, the cleric said, “God didn’t tell me that one but He revealed to me all of these and more beautiful things will happen after all the pain, but Buhari’s efforts will lead to that.
“Nigeria will be forced to a stage of break up but God will intervene.”
The Prophet further noted that Buhari is not to blame for the economic woes.
He said, “We should not blame anybody. People should not even hold Buhari responsible at all. From what God has revealed to me, He sent Buhari to Nigerians as an angel.
“God has also revealed to me that Buhari shouldn’t be worried, that everything will soon be alright. God showed me that Nigeria is like a second hand car (Tokunbo). We all know that if you buy a second hand car, it’s surely not in a perfect state. You will be fixing this today, that tomorrow until it’s fully fit. And it’s not something that will be done overnight.
“We all need to understand that if we want the country to move forward. Buhari is the one buying all the spare parts to repair the damaged car called Nigeria. By the time he completes the repair, the vehicle will move and everybody will enjoy it. That’s just the parable of Nigeria’s situation now.
“Everything will soon be alright. There are many Josephs that God is going to use to uplift this country, and Buhari is one of them.”
Recalling the other prophecies of his that have also come to pass in recent times, the Prophet said, “I predicted the Olympic soccer final. I said Germany would defeat Nigeria, it came to pass. I even said it’s going to be 2-0. I said the gold medal was for Brazil, they all came to pass.
“I predicted President Jonathan would lose the 2015 presidential election, a lot of people didn’t believe it. Even some prophets almost bet their lives on it that Buhari would lose, but it was revealed to me that Buhari would win and he won.
“Even, God revealed to me that no matter what other governorship candidates in Oyo do, Abiola Ajimobi will emerge victorious and it came to pass. I still have a message for him.”
The father of two concluded by saying “God told me to warn Governor Akinwunmi Ambode of Lagos State to beware of the way he chose his commissioners so that they will not destroy his government.
“Also, Governor Amosun of Ogun State should be careful of some people in the state, because some of them are hell bent in destroying his government as well.”
A popular Ghanaian pastor who was once arrested for flogging two congregation members in the church for having s*x, has opened up on the controversy that has trailed him for a long time now.
The leader and founder of International God’s Way Church, Bishop Daniel Kwadwo Obinim recently opened up in an interview on allegations that he slept with his junior pastor’s wife.
In an Interview with OB TV, Obinim revealed that though he slept with the lady, Gifty, she was not married to his junior pastor and even that incident happened a very long time ago.
“I can swear with my Bible and my ministry that I have not slept with anybody’s wife. At that time, the lady was not a married woman then but I slept with her. She even wanted to have a child with me so I told her God has not given me the go ahead to marry you. Even Sefa Kayi interviewed me about that and I confirmed having an affair with the lady.” the man of God said.
Please what can I do, my husband seems to be addicted to porn and masturbation. He does it at every opportunity he has, even on our matrimonial bed and it’s quite disgusting.
