Abdulrahman Muhammed, has thrown the family of a commercial motorcyclist, Owechu Odeje, 25, into mourning after he allegedly slit the okada rider’s throat, Punchng reports.
Owechu was taking Muhammed from Ijaba junction to Ijaba Pipeline, in Ogun State, when the latter reportedly killed him and fled with the motorcycle, leaving him in a pool of blood.
Muhammed, who spoke in Hausa, told the police that argument over N50 change led to a scuffle between him and Owechu,during which he stabbed the victim. He said, “When I reached my destination, I gave him N200 and asked for N50 change.
He said my fare was N200 and refused to give me change. As we were exchanging words, he slapped me. He removed the knife from my pocket and we started struggling. I managed to collect it and stabbed him. I didn’t mean to kill him.”
It took the intervention of the community leaders and a police team, to douse the tension that ensued after Owechu’s killing. A rider, said, “For two days, Hausa traders around the park could not open shops because the other residents were angry.
The Hausa leader, baales within communities in Iyesi and the DPO had to come to the park to pacify us.”
The police in Lagos State have reportedly arrested a woman, Mrs. Bosede Adekunle, for allegedly dumping the corpse of her son, Kayode, in a cesspit in the Baruwa area of Ipaja.
According to Punch Metro, the decomposing remains of the 34-year-old were found on Saturday, November 26, five days after he was dumped in the cesspit.
It was gathered that Kayode had been sick for some time and had remained indoors under the care of the widowed mother and two sisters. The publication was told that the victim later gave up the ghost under a circumstance that was not clear.
The mother was reported to have taken the corpse and dumped in the cesspit in the community. However, the stench from the corpse was said to have caught the attention of a resident who, after searching, found the body and raised the alarm.
Residents were said to have recovered the remains from the cesspit. A resident, Bode Osas, said a mob attacked the suspect before the intervention of policemen from the Ipaja division who whisked her away to the station.
He said,
“The man had epilepsy and he had been sick for some time. He was said to have died last Tuesday night. After he died, she and her two children dumped his corpse in a cesspit behind their house.
The mistake they, however, made was that they didn’t know that the cesspit was shallow and almost filled up with faeces. The odour of the corpse filled the area and five days after, the body was discovered.”
Another resident, who did not want to be identified, said Kayode died from the sickness, adding that the mother was confused on what to do with his corpse and dumped him in the cesspit.
“She is a widow and she didn’t know what to do when her son died, so she dumped the corpse in the cesspit. There was a lot of crowd in the community when the corpse was discovered. Some people mobbed her before the police intervened,” he added.
The officials of the Ipaja Local Government Area and the State Environmental Health Monitoring Unit were contacted. The residents were, however, reported to have removed the corpse before the arrival of the government emergency workers.
When the area was visited it was observed that the victim was buried opposite his mother’s mud house, which was locked up. The Baale of Ishaga Olaogun community, who did not identify himself, said the suspect had been banished from the community, adding that the case was with the police.
He said,
“We don’t want this case to escalate beyond this and that is why I won’t say anything to you. Sanity has been restored to our community and the woman that committed the crime has been banished along with her children. She is in police custody.”
The Police Public Relations Officer, SP Dolapo Badmos, confirmed the incident, adding that investigations were ongoing.
She said:
“The decomposing corpse of a man, Kayode Adekunle, was discovered in a cesspit at Adekunle Compound, Baruwa, Ipaja. It was later discovered that the corpse was dumped there by the mother, Mrs. Bosede Adekunle. Kayode was an epileptic patient and he had fallen sick for some time before he died. Local government health officials were contacted for evacuation, while the case is under investigation.”

One Ms Uduak was arrested and charged to Calabar Magistrates Court on Monday, November 28th for allegedly pouring boiling water on the face of 10-year-old boy, Daniel Okon Nse in an attempt to wake him up from sleep.
It was gathered that on Thursday, November 24th, at about 5:30AM, the 29-year-old suspect poured boiling water on Nse, causing severe burns and injuries on the child’s face and arm. Mr. Emmanuel Agan who is a neighbour to the accused, noticed the grave injuries on the child on Friday 25th November, 2016 and immediately reported to Basic Rights Counsel Initiative, a front line child rights organization in Calabar.
The organization immediately reported the case to the police and they arrested the perpetrator. The young boy, who is from Uruan in Akwa Ibom State said his dad is late. Until last September, Nse was a pupil of PCN Primary School, Akim, Calabar but stopped going to school after he was asked to repeat primary 3. His mother, a crayfish seller had given him out to live as house boy to one Madam Ime. According to CrossRiverWatch:
“The said Madam Ime is a food vendor (popularly known as “Mama Put”) at No. 7C, Etta Agbor Road, Calabar and on the fateful day of the incident, Daniel could not wake up on time to wash dishes when Ime’s eldest daughter (the accused) woke him up by pouring boiling water on his face.
Basic Rights Counsel Initiative had provided medical care to Nse and written to the Ministry of Sustainable Development and Social Welfare seeking temporary accommodation for the child, and the Ministry has promptly responded by placing the child in a government facility where he is now being kept pending when his biological parents/relatives can be traced
The Magistrate was said to be infuriated with the manner at which Ms. Monday responded to questions as her bail application was been heard, therefore turned down the application, remanded her in Afokang prison until the next adjourned date, Sunday 9th December, 2016.
This viral photo seen above has caused quite a stir online. The photo shows a collection of ‘Final Year University projects’ being dumped inside a rubbish bin.
The photo was shared on Facebook by one Dr Raphael James, who was furious with the unnamed institution that had the nerve to discard academic works of research in such a horrible manner.
Although the particular school to have done this is not known yet, social media users have joined James in slamming it for the act.
Below is what James wrote on Facebook.
He wrote: “In your final year in the university it is compulsory you write a ‘final year project’ which is a test of your ability to do research.
“You are to formulate hypothesis, review related literatures, sometimes you do interviews, surveys and other research techniques, which may include both present and historical information.
“The result of your research work can be used for further research works either to support it or to disagree with it. Most university undergraduates today, don’t even bother to do a proper research work , they copy from old projects and change the identity of the owners. That is by the way.
“Look at this photo, posted by Franklin Okechukwu Onwubiko. For a university, an academic institution to throw away the project findings of her finale year students, this is the end of education in Nigeria.
“Why go to school, why do research if it will not be used to benefit the society?
“I am appealing pls any university that wants to throw away things like this should donate it to CRIMMD Library, we will be glad to keep the rubbish.”

Dashing veteran actor, Richard Mofe-Damijo simply known as RMD celebrated his son, Kome Mofe-Damijo’s 33rd birthday with a very touching message.
Read below:
“It’s been 33 years already? Wow!
Happy Birthday son, I’ve been struggling with this all morning, not sure I want to drag you out here and disrespect your privacy but I am just too mighty proud of the man you have become and just have to share you with the world.
I recall how scared I was to let you leave home many years ago fresh out of kings college to Windsor uni in canada, I wanted you in unilag with me at the time for selfish reasons but looking back it was good I let you go.
You’ve NEVER caused me grief or worries. I am so grateful to God at how well grounded you are. I am amazed at your deep love for God and devotion to your family. I could not be prouder of the choice in Eniola as your wife, she was one of my favourite little girls when I taught the Sunday School class and I’m elated to have her as my daughter in-law.
I know all children don’t always turn out right but I am extremely grateful you both did and I couldn’t have been better rewarded.
Thank you Kome Mofe-Damijo for making me a very proud dad and granddad and I pray that your children would give you peace and make you prouder than you have made me.
Happy birthday son, I love you more than you’ll ever know.
The shrine which contained the tomb where Jesus Christ ’s body lay for three days after his crucifixion has been opened.
The tomb has been sealed in marble since at least 1555 to protect it from pilgrims who kept stealing pieces as holy relics. But over the centuries the church had been destroyed and rebuilt so many times there were doubts about what it contained.
Now the tomb’s marble lid has been removed for the first time in five centuries – revealing a miraculous discovery.
There, unseen for half a millennium, was the limestone shelf where Christ’s body is thought to have been placed.
The researchers also discovered a second grey marble slab no one knew existed, engraved with a cross they believe was carved in the 12th century by the Crusaders.
Archaeologist Fredrik Hiebert of National Geographic, which was a partner in the project, says:
“The most amazing thing for me was when we removed the first layer of dust and found a second piece of marble.
“This one was grey, not creamy white like the exterior, and right in the middle of it was a beautifully inscribed cross. We had no idea that was there. The shrine has been destroyed many times by fire, earthquakes, and invasions over the centuries. We didn’t really know if they had built it in exactly the same place every time.
“But this seems to be visible proof that the spot the pilgrims worship today really is the same tomb the Roman Emperor Constantine found in the 4th century and the Crusaders revered. It’s amazing.
“When we realised what we had found my knees were shaking a little bit.”
Where Jesus was laid
It was opened in the presence of leaders from the Greek and Armenian Orthodox churches and the Franciscan monks, who share responsibility for the church.
Fredrik adds:
“They let the patriarchs of the three churches go in first. They came out with big smiles on their face. Then the monks went in and they were all smiling.
“We were all getting really curious. Then we went in, looked into the tomb, and saw a lot of rubble. So it wasn’t empty, even though there were no artefacts or bones.”
Some time ago, the sex tape saga of former Miss Anambra, Chidinma Okeke, indeed threw several media into pandemonium after it emerged online.
The emergence of the sex tape has even created worries that other pageants may not hold as much credibility as they used to.
Meanwhile, a former beauty queen, Ambassador Sharon Anya, Miss Tourism Nigeria 2015, who spoke with Potpourri recently, says she also holds the belief that pageants may not be what they used to be.
Sharon Anya
“It will certainly affect other pageants. The organisers have to become more transparent, and let the criteria be properly spelt out, and being more transparent means, everybody should know why the winner won, and on the other hand, the contestants should always go for official meetings with her lawyer and manager before signing any contract”, she offered.
When asked if it is true that beauty queens cut corners to win at all costs, the Mass Communications graduate of Igbinedion University said it is a possibility and maintained that it is not exclusive to pageants.
“It happens in any other field. Some journalists go the extreme to get top interviews, even in churches, there are pastors that use diabolical powers to get to the top. Some athletes use drugs to get to the top, there are those that would want to do anything to get to the top of their careers, in every field. There are those that break the moral boundary in pursuit of a goal, others won’t, it’s everywhere, so it’s not peculiar to pageants only.
“I don’t know her to know what went wrong, the act was wrong but the person…I can’t judge. For future pageants, have a team, have a manager and a lawyer. For me, I got into Miss Tourism Nigeria pageant for a purpose and not to be famous. My pageant is about promoting tourism , women empowerment, leadership across the country and attracting foreign investors, I focused on that, and it kept me going, I was able to stay scandal-free because I invest in myself a lot, I cultivated a life I want to enjoy in peace,” she added
Whats that saying about being battered but not broken? Toke Makinwa might be taking the marital plunge again after all.
The popular OAP who has had mostly horrible things to say about her marital experience from her 18-month marriage to fitness trainer, Maje Ayida, says she just might give marriage another go.
Speaking during a Chat with Encomium magazine, the 31-year-old made it clear that she is no longer bitter about her failed marriage and that anything could happen.
When asked if she could give marriage another shot, she said,
“It was a journey, we all go through different stages, we learn from them.
“Marriage is a beautiful thing. Next time we would be talking, I might be a married woman, who knows. Life is a journey. You are allowed to grow, it is a journey of growth, and be open, do what you are supposed to do when you are supposed to do it so that you can learn from your mistakes, become who you are supposed to be.”
Speaking on her perception of marriage, she said, “It is a beautiful institution. I am not coming from a bitter place, you would accept what happened.
“For me, it might be a marriage, for the next person, it might be a sick child. The most important thing is what you do with what you learnt from the situation.
“You are allowed to grow, it is a journey of growth, and be open, do what you are supposed to do when you are supposed to do it, so that you can learn from your mistakes, become who you are supposed to be.”
Speaking further, she said, “No one should see that your life is not perfect but I am here to change that. People should see you in your worst, which is how they can appreciate your success story. People should see you when you are down and under because you would still come up.
“If you reach the bottom, there is only one place to go which is the top. We need to eradicate shaming people to silence, most especially women. Women are held in high esteem.
“You can’t show to the world that you are heartbroken, you can’t show to the world that your marriage is not perfect because people would look at you and think there is something wrong with you. But there is nothing wrong with that person.
“She is walking through life. She is becoming what she is supposed to be. It is important that we unmask ourselves, let go off this tradition because people die in silence. There is more to life than the shame.”
So, Singer, Simi shared a picture of herself from a shoot of Accelerate tv’s campaign.. Of course, she felt the picture was cute beyond words and she slayed hard… But her fans thought otherwise.
Background
I am from Lagos State. My siblings and I were brought up in Isale Eko, where we lived with my father. My mum passed away when I was really young, so I basically became the mother of the house. I became responsible for the upkeep of my siblings and father. I did the cooking and was saddled with the responsibility of taking my brothers to school. Till date, I still care for my siblings and parent and I am protective of them. My brothers often have to remind me that they have come of age.
Education
I studied Catering and Hotel Management at the Lagos State Polytechnic, Ikorodu.
Acting
I believe I was destined to become an actress because I never planned to become one. It happened that while I was still a student at the Lagos State Polytechnic, popular actor and director, Antar Laniyan, and some other actors, came to shoot a movie scene on campus. I recollect that it was a Wale Adenuga production. I walked up to him and told him I was interested in becoming an actor and the rest is now history.
Breakthrough
I started with Papa Ajasco by Wale Adenuga Productions. In addition, I featured in So Wrong, So Wright, This Life, The Valley Between, and some others.
I also produced my own movie titled T’omi T’eje, which was inspired by my National Youth Service Corps experience. For one reason or the other, some corps members, who enlisted for the scheme at the same time that I did, were unable to complete the programme.
The essence of the movie that I produced was to draw attention to some of the challenges corps members face during their service year.
Scripts
Even though I am usually given scripts where I have to play tough roles, I’m a versatile actress and can fit into any character. I love roles that challenge me. However, I’m an advocate of decency, and there are things that I just can’t do.
There was a time my child confronted me for smoking in a movie. It happened that way because I usually tell them that cigarettes are bad for the health. It was a herculean task explaining that I had to smoke because my character in that particular movie necessitated that I smoked.
Nollywood
There’s tribalism in the industry. Most Igbo producers are more comfortable working with their Igbo folks. It is even the Yoruba actors that go after Igbos as long as the person can interpret the role.
Hollywood
I would absolutely love to feature in a Hollywood production. If the script contains nudity, there are stunt-doubles who play such roles. I don’t have to strip; you’d just see my face, but someone else would be naked.
Motherhood
Because my mother died when I was a little girl, I make sure that I discuss with my children all of the time. I also encourage them to see me as a friend because my mum was quite strict.
Controversies
I’ve never been a controversial person. I watch what I do, where I go and who I associate with.
Fans
Some fans find it difficult to differentiate between you and the roles you play in movies. That is one of the challenges I face as an actress and it is a major one. Some people come up to me to say, “You’re too wicked. What you did is not good.” Some also behave in an unfriendly manner whenever we meet.
Style
Style to me means looking good without going nude, and I also love shoes
Veteran actor, Peter Fatomilola has revealed the reason he stopped playing the role of Papa Ajasco and featuring in Wale Adenuga’s ‘Super Story’.
Fatomilola who starred as Papa Ajasco in the first episode in 1983 said the distance from Ife where he lived to Lagos was very tiring and difficult journey.
He said that he could not move to Lagos because he did not see Lagos as a place to live. “What we have in Lagos is money; no culture, no morals. It is not a place to raise children with morals. I’ve been living in Ife for over 40 years. I am from Ekiti State, but Ife is the home of culture and center of civilisation,” he stated.
His opinion is quite different from a lot of people whose dreams were to raise their children in Lagos.
Narrating about his love for “Ifa” he said, “My father, late Chief Abraham Ojo Fatomilola, was the head of the herbalists in my town. We call that ‘Olu Awo’ or ‘Agba Awo.’
“In fact, I only wanted to study ‘Ifa’ and was always around my father, because it was great fun with him.
When people came with goats, sheep, ducks and chickens, my father would take the parts he needed and instruct us to roast the other parts.” But for his mother, he would not have taken education seriously, because of his love for ‘Ifa.’
She is one of Nollywood Yoruba actresses with an enviable marriage. Beautiful, fashionable and popular actress, Mosun Filani-Oduoye is always an item with her husband, Hon Kayode Oduoye, a lawyer cum politician in Osun State.
The couple got married in 2012 and is blessed with two children.
Kayode’s father is the late Senator Simeon Oduoye, a retired AIG who served as Military Administrator of Ebonyi and Niger states. He later became a senator and represented Osun Central in the Senate from 2007 to 2011.
For a celebrity marriage that has become envy among her peers and colleagues, Mosun Filani, who is fondly called Yeye Alubarika, spoke exclusively to Kemiashefonlovehaven on what makes her marriage work:
She said, “There are many factors in making a marriage work and the first factor is the God factor. God is the only one that makes all things possible and He makes love to grow in the hearts of a couple for each other.
“The second is love and understanding. When you love and understand each other, things work easily and there are no problems.”
Though she was off the screen for some years to have her babies, Mosun is back on set. Last year, she featured in a few films and also produced one.
Currently, she is on the set of a film, ‘ARA’ produced by Mercy Ebosele.
The beautiful mother of two lives in Osun State with her family.Asked how she juggles her time as a mother, actress and businesswoman, she replied:
“I plan my time. Anytime my husband will not be around, I don’t pick up any acting job. I work with his time and schedule my appointments to what will suit us.
“If a producer wants me on location, the timing has to be Ok by me especially my family.”
This takes her to talking about what makes celebrity marriages work.
She said, “When you are married, the two of you must know that you are no longer single and you can’t live your life as a single man/woman. You are no longer on your own and you stay back from distractions.
“The first 10 years are critical because those are the years that form the foundation of any home. You need to know each other well and learn to bond. Once you are married, you need to create time for your family because that is the time you get to know the family you are married into. Also, learn to do everything together and that way, external influence is avoided.”
On her husband, she told KALH, “Thank God for His mercies because my husband has always been there for me. Truth is, you can only record success in your endeavours when you are blessed with a stable and peaceful home front and there is no domestic upheaval. He has been quite supportive.”
The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has released a statement addressing the death of three corp members Elechi Chinyerum Nwenenda, Oladepo Ifedolapo and Asuquo Ukeme Monday in Bayelsa, Kano, and Zamfara states recently.
According to them, welfare of every Nigerian corp member is the NYSC management’s top priority. They regret the deaths of the 3 corp members and have also set up a high-powered committee to investigate the immediate and remote causes of the loss of the 3 Corps members.
Read their statement below:
The National Youth Service Corps regrets the loss of three Corps members, Elechi Chinyerum Nwenenda, Oladepo Ifedolapo and Asuquo Ukeme Monday during the on-gong 2016 Batch ‘B’ (Stream I) Orientation Course in Bayelsa, Kano and Zamfara States respectively.
The death of the trio followed brief illnesses and after medical teams in the camps battled to save them in line with established procedures. Their demise, coming in their prime time when they were bracing up for further roles towards advancing their respective families, the nation and the rest of humanity, came as a rude shock to us in the NYSC family.
On behalf of the Management, staff and Corps members nationwide, I wish to express our sincere condolences to the families of the deceased Corps members. May the Almighty God grant them eternal rest and give their families and the rest of us the fortitude to bear the irreparable losses.
While we mourn the demise of these Corps members, who, out of patriotic zeal, answered the clarion call to serve their fatherland, we are constrained to correct the impression of negligence being created in some quarters.
Management wishes to state that the welfare of Corps members has always remained topmost in the priorities of the Scheme, and we have continued to strive to give our best in that regard. The policy of the Scheme regarding healthcare during Orientation course provides for the setting up of camp clinic manned by qualified Doctors and other Corps Health Personnel.
The clinics, which are also provided with drugs and other basic equipment, are detailed to render round-the-clock medical services on camp with standing arrangement to refer and ensure immediate movement of patients to more sophisticated health facilities when necessary.
We want to inform the public that medical teams in our camps have always been guided by the procedures of practice and in the most professional ways possible.
However, in view of these unfortunate incidents in Bayelsa, Kano, and Zamfara states, Management has set up a high-powered committee to investigate the immediate and remote causes of the loss the Corps members.
Management appreciates the concern of stakeholders, and wishes to assure the general public, especially serving and prospective Corps members as well as parents and guardians that the Scheme will continue to take measures aimed at ensuring the security and general well being of youths enlisted to serve the nation on the platform of the Scheme.

Popular Yoruba Actor, Yomi Fabiyi in a phone chat with Encomium has revealed how an unnamed actress forced him into making his divorce to his British wife public.
He said;
“In all honesty, there were ups and downs in the marriage for a while. At a point, she thought people writing on the internet was really affecting my decision to move over. I told her I am a different breed and such talks hardly get at me. When I take decision to be happy, provided it is nothing criminal, illegal, immoral or anti-social, I careless about those who feel angered by such decision.
I decided to call it quit when despite trying to conceal the storm, an upcoming actress who recently relocated to the UK got to know some hidden stuff and shared it with some media guys. She snitched on me and kept my marital secret at risk. I thought there is no point trying to see if it would work. Fighting to make it work and keep the storm secret was just too much for me. I chose this November trip to London to make the announcement before they misinform people by half baked story that hurts really”.
Yomi Fabiyi blamed the long distance between them as the main reason the 4-year-old marriage could not work.
Below are screenshots between the actor and his white wife after he announced his plans to get a divorce.
