Two soldiers, Lance Corporals Musa Maidabra and Edwin George, serving at 122D30 Regiment in Maiduguri, Borno State, have been arrested for transporting the ransom that was paid for the release of the wife of the Central Bank Governor, Margaret Emefiele.
Emefiele and three others were abducted along Benin-Agbor Road about two weeks ago and were released 24 hours later after the payment of undisclosed amount to their abductors.
The two soldiers said they received N6.5m each as their share of the ransom estimated to be around N80m.
Maidabra and George, who were paraded alongside seven others on Monday in Abuja for alleged involvement in the kidnapping, said they were given the money for assisting the gang to transport the ransom to a hideout in Benin, the Edo State capital.
Other suspects included a dismissed soldier, Ernest Uduefe, Mohammed Abubakar, Mohammed Musa, Mohammed Sule, Ibrahim Abdullahi, Aliyu Musa and Mohammed Yusuf.
Maidabra said,
“We were not involved in the kidnapping; we only assisted them to transport the money to a location. We carried the money and ran away with it in a vehicle; it was part of my friend’s share that I collected. We didn’t know the money was from a kidnap operation.”
George corroborated his colleague, saying they provided security cover for transporting the ransom to a hideout in Benin.
“I was not involved in the kidnap; the money they gave me was over N6m. I asked about the source of the money, but they didn’t tell me,” he said.
The Force Public Relations Officer, Donald Awunah, said the police recovered N14,725,000, two Honda Accord cars, an Audi car, one AK 47 magazine and two cartridges from the gang.
He stated that a Jeep, valued at N1.5m and N4m cash were recovered from Maidabra, while a Honda Accord, estimated at N1.1m, was recovered from George.
Awunah explained that detectives recovered N7.7m from Musa out of his N10m share, adding that he sustained bullet wounds after a gun duel with the police while trying to escape from the forest where they had kept their victim.
He said,
“Mohammed Sule confessed to have received N10m in cash as part of his share of the ransom paid and claimed a soldier and a gang leader escaped with the rest of the loot. Another suspect, Ibrahim Abdullahi, admitted to have received N10m in cash.
“The police will continue to limit the capacity of kidnappers and other criminals to disrupt the quality of life of Nigerians by the deployment of adequate manpower and resources in crime reduction, detection and prosecution of offenders.”
On the payment of ransom, the police noted that it was sometime used as a bait or bargaining chip to save the lives of victims of crime.
“It is absolutely important to mention that the police do not and will not encourage payment of ransom,” Awunah added.
Officials of the National Emergency Management Agency on Monday welcomed a bouncing baby boy at the Malkohi IDP camp – according to them, the mother and child are in good health condition.

After the singer shared a photo of himself with one of his daughters, Sophia, whom he had with ex-beauty queen, Anna Banner, people have started the suggest that the singer doesn’t show equal love to both his daughters.
Their observations notes that the singer spends more time with Sophia, as he shares more photos on his social media page with her than his other daughter.
So this man, who seems to be handicapped, was nabbed on the afternoon hours of Monday as he tried to dash away with two bags of rice he bought with fake money in Abaranje, Ikotun, Lagos State.
It’s not certain what was left of the man after he was nabbed but he doesn’t look like he was a victim of “fatal” jungle justice. More photos below:
Awww… Talk about waking up at the right side of the bed… This lovely lady sure would have had the best day of her life from that morning she woke up to see a ring next to her.
Beautiful Adenike woke up to a ring by her bed side, and it was at that moment, her boyfriend of 10 years, Oluwaseun, popped the almighty question.
The ecstatic bride-to-be took to her social media page to reveal how he proposed… saying theirs won’t be a story like Angelina and Brad Pitt… Oh! The mockery Brangelina!
“I was only 17 when I met you Oluwaseun, I knew little or nothing about love, you taught me to love, you groomed me from the little girl I was to the beautiful woman I have become today. We have gone through the ups and down together,when people called their girlfriends sweet pet names, you call me “baby terror” lol. I know I’m very annoying but still you chose me. It’s been 10 sweet years with you and everyday seem like we just started dating yesterday. Today that you have taken the bold step and asked me to be your wife, I promise to love you till death do us part. Even though i always brag that I can never be surprised when you eventually pop the question, but you still swept me off my feet. I woke up and saw my beautiful ring and taught I was dreaming had to close my eyes again to be sure it’s real ? .You are the best honey. If you ask me over and over YES will always be my answer. This is not going to be Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s kinda love. It’s going to be forever. Thank you for choosing me Oluwaseun”

Below is how the eye witness shared the story:
“The fear of Ember months is the beginning of wisdom it’s often said !
This afternoon 10th October 2016 in the front entrance of the popular jankara market close to Spencer house trouble started when an Northerner (malam) held another malam to his clothes demanding him to restore his manhood, therefore passerby’s asked the Northerner to leave him but he began to explain what transpired between them, he said the malam ask him about vehicle that would take him to oshodi from idumota and after he gave him directions he noticed something had gone off his body so he quickly checked below only to find out his joystick (di*k) had become smaller than what it used to be like before, he claimed it was the other malam that jazzed (juju) him, so he demanded it to be restored, he even had to bring out the di*ck for all to see both males and females were all to view it free… He said its smaller than, that it used to be bigger than that,even passionate plea was made to any female who could please help him to caress his joystick to see if it would rise again.”

According to the new mum, she would be launching a new website soon where she’d answer questions from fans regarding her family, new child and everything they want to know about.
On motherhood,
“You already respect your mom, but you respect your mom like a hundred times more… And you also have another respect for being a chick, being a woman, so it’s a pretty cool, very very cool experience.”
She also revealed the experience of making a child makes you appreciate God even more and gives you a new sense of living.
On how she managed to surprise fans with news of her baby, she said,
“It’s not really all of a sudden, I think it’s just more or less that we’re in a society where because everything is just out there, it’s no longer the norm to just chill and just keep moving.
It wasn’t like an aim to do, I just kinda lived, like I just lived… Like I’m having too much fun, I forget to take pictures and I forget to post them, that’s just what really happened.
It is what it is.”
With the singer currently sticking to her mother duties, fans will be expecting her quick return back to music for more of her hit songs.
Pete Edochie has made suggestions that the cases of Fulani herdsmen attack in Igbo communities may bring grave consequences.
The actor stated this in a proverbial way during an interview with Ugwumba Television.
He said,
“If an innocent child is respecting you whilst you flog him, he would retaliate when you force him to a tight corner.”
“I say to you, man will die once and one day and defend himself with whatever weapon available to him. That is the way I will answer your question on killer herdsmen.”
Though there have been various reports of violent attacks on communities all over the country by the herdsmen, but many of these cases happened in the eastern part of Nigeria.
Most of the attacks have been unprovoked, making it a source of wonder for observers to understand why they have been occurring.
The State Security Service SSS has released all the judges arrested and detained in Abuja and six other states over the weekend.
According to Premium Times, all the seven judges were released on self-recognition. A source at SSS said:
“They were all released on bail yesterday(Sunday) on self recognition. They reported this morning (Monday) and they have all gone back home. They will be coming back tomorrow. And everything went very procedurally well and civil.
They were released on bail on self recognition based on the fact that given their standing in the society, they cannot run away. They were instructed that they should come back today by 10am. They did report for investigation this morning and they have gone back home. And the investigation continues and preparation to charge them to court continued. Also, action was sequel to lack of cooperation by National Judicial Council. Such as refusal by the NJC to allow the affected persons to be questioned by the DSS. Investigation started some seven months ago, precisely in April 2016” he said
The crackdown has continued to generate mixed reactions across the country.
17-year-old Dacia Reynolds was found hanging from a tree in her yard in Runaway Bay, St Ann about 1:30 pm on Tuesday, Oct. 4th. Police say that the teen is suspected to have committed suicide.
Her body was taken to to the morgue for a post mortem to determine the actually cause of death and to reveal if any foul play was involved. No motives have yet been determined by the police as to why Reynolds may have taken her own life.
She was described as a promising young woman who didn’t show any signs of having problems, so her her taking her own life came has a real shocker to her friends and family.
“She showed no signs of depression,” one family member said, as a group sat comforting her bereaved mother, Verona Ferguson.
The distraught mother recalled that when she left Reynolds on Tuesday morning for work, she was not anticipating a call that would inform her of her death.
“Monday we were playing inside,” Ferguson recalled. “She was always happy, friendly, and always with a smile.”
“This shake up the entire district, everybody. She had an incredibly bubbly personality. She was passionate about life. Whenever she committed to doing something she always followed through,” said Pastor Delroy Johnson, who visited the family.
“She was enjoying church on Sunday; she was smiling. She was a very good girl; she never had a frown on her face,” another family member added.
Reynolds, a past student of Ferncourt High in the parish, had only been attending her new school of Cosmetology for two weeks. She reportedly stayed home on Tuesday because of the weather associated with Hurricane Matthew.
MOST men – and their women – would like to have a mean-sized 4-5 to ensure pleasure between the sheets.
But Mnombo “Anaconda” Madyibi (32) and his wife want exactly the opposite. That’s because Mnombo’s snake-sized 4-5 is allegedly too big, hairy and scary for his new wife’s kitten!
Mnombo got his nickname after his fellow soccer players saw his 4-5 in the change rooms before a soccer match. But his new wife said she’s not being entertained by his bullish 4-5 as it’s destroying her kitten.
Mnombo, a local soccer player from Bhongweni Village in Mthatha, allegedly got klapped on Friday night by his new makoti on their honeymoon in Coffee Bay, on the Wild Coast of the Eastern Cape.
“All was well and she enjoyed the pre-intimacy, but all hell broke loose the moment I took off my underwear.
“My wife said she wanted a 4-5 inside her kitten, not an anaconda,” claimed Mnombo.
“When I tried to penetrate her, she bit my ear before squeezing my balls. Before I knew it, she knocked me over with a bottle of wine before attempting to suffocate me with a red and white teddy bear I had bought her as a gift.”
Mnombo claimed his screams summoned other guests and staff at the B&B where they were staying.
“We took different buses back home. I don’t want to lay charges against my new wife. I love her.
“I think she’s angry because I could only afford a cheaper honeymoon instead of the one she wished for in Zanzibar.”
He said he met his makoti at church last year and she told him she wanted to abstain from sex until they were married.
“I’ve only heard of joystick enlargement and not joystick shrinking,” said a frustrated Mnombo.
When Daily Sun contacted her, his wife said Mnombo was telling lies.
“He has a big 4-5 – long like a cucumber and hairy and scary like a bush. I only slapped him on the cheek and never moered him or tried to suffocate him,” she said.
The couple agreed to get counselling and said they would not involve the police.
Lil Kesh shared this photo hoping fans will compliment his new colour. But instead, they dragged him for his “rough” face and scars.

Nigerian actor, producer, director and television personality, Ali Nuhu, popularly known by the media as “King of Kannywood” has approved of the recent ban on actress Rahama Sadau calling it logical, as he believes she violated the codes and ethics of Kannywood.
Rahama was banned by MOPPAN, a coalition of associations that set rules and regulations governing the conduct of actors and actresses, as well as production of movies in northern Nigeria, on account of her featuring in a 4 minute 19 seconds romantic musical video by based singer, ClassiQ.
In an interview with Daily Trust, Nuhu said
“I think that the ban is logical. She belongs to Kannywood, started her career in Kannywood and has violated the ethics and code of conduct of Kannywood by holding hands and falling on the guy’s back.”
The actor has however advised that the censoring body in future, needs to take caution before reaching a decision on matters such as this, noting that the ban is on the extreme as a lesser punishment would have sufficed.
“I don’t think she should be banned. Maybe a suspension. There are situations where people create big things out of small ones. That is why before deciding to do something, one needs to think. I would advise that in future when things like this happen, they deliberate amongst themselves and maybe call in a few others in the industry before making it public. People do things in an organization and are suspended or given queries. But these organizations won’t go to the media to announce it. It was blown out of proportion,” Ali explained.
Responding to social media critics who feel the ban was selective Ali Nuhu said
“About photographs of me in scenes with females, those are from Nollywood movies, many years old, and this code came into light recently, so people shouldn’t think MOPPAN is being selective.”
36-year-old Ifeyinwa Nlemchi, who in a jealous fit of rage allegedly burnt her husband’s official documents to protest his adulterous acts, was on Monday hauled up before a Yaba Chief Magistrates’ Court in Lagos.
The accused, who resides at No. 45, Church St., Fiwakesin, Agbede in Ikorodu, Lagos State, is standing trial on a two-count charge bordering on malicious damage.
Prosecutor Roman Unuigbe told the court that the accused committed the offences on Sept.16 at their residence.
Unuigbe alleged that the accused who suspected that her husband was having an illicit relationship with another woman, planted a tape in his office bag to record their conversations.
He said the accused also found out that her husband was spending time at a hotel with another woman and out of jealousy, took all the documents he had brought from work and set them on fire.
“Her husband, who made a report at the police station, said he wanted her charged to court for willfully destroying four international passports belonging to clients of Multi Choice Nigeria.”
The offences contravened Sections 338 and 348 of the Criminal Laws of Lagos State 2011. Ifeyinwa, however, pleaded not guilty to the charges.
In his ruling, the Chief Magistrate, Mr P.A. Ojo, granted her bail in the sum of N200,000 with two sureties in like sum.
He said one of the sureties must be a blood relation of the accused and should be gainfully employed in a reputable and verified organisation.
In addition, the magistrate said the sureties must show evidence of tax payment to the government. The case was adjourned to Nov. 4 for substantive trial.
The beautiful young lady you see above is Olabisi – a very rare kinda Nigerian female who voluntarily went into carpentry because it is her dream, and she is very proud of the path she has taken.
Speaking on her decision to tread where few ladies dare, she said:
So about a week ago, I started my self carpentry training..waow!thanks to YouTube and the free carpentry books online. I had actually thought it’s going to be an easy ride but eish….it’s not been easy and neither is it as difficult as I was told it would be.
The beautiful thing is, this journey is revealing to me much more than ever that God is a God of process. Therefore, no pressure! Whether I succeed or fail is inconsequential, I am open enough to take the risk to fail. No pressure. No quest for instant gratification. No immediate result needed. For me, its all about enjoying the process.
World class exceptional singer, Celine Dion has just revealed that she has never been with another man except her husband. The 48-year-old singer’s husband of 22 years, René Angélil died of cancer in January and she isn’t ready to move on yet.
“I love him. I’m still in love with him,” she said on CBS Sunday Morning while adding she wasn’t ready to fall in love again. “Not now. I’m still married to him. I’ve never kissed another man in my life.”
She added: “I love. I love. I love him. I’m still in love with him. And I have the love of my children. I have the love of my fans. I love the people that I work with. So, my life is not empty of love.
“I go to bed with him and I come onstage with him, and…so, I’m still married to him.”
Celine was just 12 years old when she met René, who became her manager. And she remembered her spouse, who was 38 at the time, looked “very beautiful” and she appreciated the fact he didn’t treat her like a child.
“I thought he looked very beautiful. He looked great. I felt confident that this man was not treating me as a ‘Oh, hi, little pumpkin’ or ‘Hi, little sweetie’ or like a little baby.”
The lady in the photo above and her neighbour were engaged in a fight, and just when she thought the brawl had come to an end, she got the total shock of her life.
So a Nigerian student who needed money for her school handouts sent the media personality a shout out asking for her help and voila! The rest is a gladdening history!
An Indian businessman has paid the sun of a banging $9 million to buy a single-digit car registration plate in Dubai, adding another coveted number plate to his collection.
Balwinder Sahani bought number plate “D5” for 33 million Dirhams at the Roads and Transport Authority’s number plate auction on Saturday.
Sahani, also known as Abu Sabah, is the owner of RSG International, a property management company, with interests in the UAE, Kuwait, India and the US.
Sahani was quoted as saying by the Gulf News,
“I like collecting unique number plates and I am proud to have got this number. I like number nine and D5 adds up to nine, so I went for it,”
He said that last year he bought the vehicle number plate O9 for 25 million Dirhams (about $9 million, N2.8bn).
“I have collected 10 number plates so far and I am looking forward to having more. It’s a passion. This number will go to one of my Rolls Royces,” he added.
The number generated great interest among the participants with the bid starting at 20 million Dirham (over $5 million).
More than 300 bidders participated at the live auction which takes place every two months, witnessing fierce battle between bidders for some unique numbers.
13-year-old Mahendra Ahirwar had a rare condition that made his head hang at a 180-degree angle – the teenager’s crocked neck meant he couldn’t stand, he had to sit and always needed help to eat and go to the toilet.
He was at home alone all day and his mother said she couldn’t bear to see him suffer.
The good news is Mahendra’s life has been transformed by surgery and he can finally see the world the right way up again. His father Mukesh, 41, told Mail Online:
“It’s a miracle! He looks great. His neck is straight; and his life is so very different. ‘He’s in a good place. It was heart breaking to see him before. We were on the brink of losing him. When his neck was bent he was too shy to speak but now he feels like a normal person and we can see his confidence levels growing. He is very happy now. He says he can feel the difference and he loves it.
Mahendra, from Madhya Pradesh, central India, was born with a normal neck but as he grew older his bones became weak and his neck began to bend.
After years of trying to find treatment with no success, Mahendra resigned to spending the rest of his life with a crocked neck.
But life was a struggle. Mahendra’s parents even admit they would rather their son die than continue to suffer.
Mahendra’s life however was transformed thanks to a stranger, mother-of-two Julie Jones living 4,000 miles away in Liverpool who read his story and raised £12,000 for an operation to straighten his neck.
Now the Mahendra can do the same things other boys his age can – like go to school.
As bizarre as it looks, this Ghanaian man didn’t just accidentally, take a box of fruit juice and started using to have his bath… The Juice Box is that of “Kalyppo”, a fruit juice company brand in Ghana.
The Ghanaian dude takes his own Kalyppo craze to another level as he uses it to have his bath – the “Kalyppo craze” began gaining traction on social media when their NPP presidential candidate, Nana Akufo-Addo, was pictured sipping the fruit drink.
The picture was initially shared to mock him as a weak leader who drinks kids’ juice, but somehow, many people found the picture fascinating and it soon went viral.
A newborn baby boy has had quite a miraculous recovery despite being stabbed for 14 times and buried alive in a shallow grave in Thailand.
After he was taken to a local orphanage on surviving his ordeal, he is now set for a dream life after a Swedish couple adopted him.
The seven-month-old boy, named Aidin was dumped face down in a 20cm grave in February, just days after he was born. He had suffered horrendous knife injuries before he was placed in the ground alive and left for dead.
However, passing cattle herder Kachit Krongyut saw a tiny foot sticking out of the ground under a eucalyptus tree. She then heard the boy’s cries and realised that it was a baby buried under the tree.
The 53-year-old then began frantically digging up the soil with her hands and discovered the injured newborn.
Aidin was then rushed to hospital to be treated for his 14 stab wounds on his tiny body.
Miraculously, doctors said it was the pressure from the soil against his body that prevented Aidin from bleeding to death. Mrs Krongyut said:
‘At first, I thought someone buried their pets alive, but then I saw a foot.
‘I tried to control myself and called for help. The baby was buried with its face facing down.’
After being nursed back to health, he was taken to an orphanage where he is now set to be adopted by a couple in Sweden.
Supachai Pathimchart from the Kaen Thong Orphanage where Aidin was cared for said they were “very happy” for him. He said:
‘All of the safety checks have been carried out to make sure Aidin goes to a good home. We’re very happy that he will be going to a good home and have a comfortable life.
‘He survived a very bad experience but he has a lot of character and he’s happy with life.’
While Mrs Krongyut and her husband Pornchai, who rescued the infant, said they were delighted that Aidin is going to a good home. Mr Krongyut said:
‘He is very lucky. A few hours later and he might not have survived. We’re very happy that he has found a loving home to go to. He will do well in life we’re sure.’
Doctors believe that Aidin may have been abused by his mother, a 42-year-old local woman. Footprints and motorbike tracks left at the scene helped police to find her. She was tracked down and charged with attempted murder and abandoning her own child.
A shocking video shows a Chinese man hobbling towards medical attention after a turtle chomped down on his penis and refused to let go, the video has become viral on the internet.
In the footage likely to make most men wince, the Chinese soft shell turtle is seen with its teeth clamped around the groin area of the man’s trousers.
The unlucky man is seen using red rope that is tied around the reptile’s shell to lift it up so he can walk with more ease.
It is believed he was taking the turtle home, maybe to use it for soup because millions of softshell turtles are killed every year in Asia where they are considered a delicacy.

An Iranian child bride could be hanged in weeks after she was sentenced to death for allegedly murdering her abusive husband – Zeinab Sokian was sentenced to death for the 2012 murder of her husband, when she was just 17, Daily Mail reports.
However, Zeinab married another prisoner while in jail and fell pregnant, and as Iranian law prevents pregnant women from being executed her death sentence was delayed.
On September 30 she gave birth to a stillborn child in Euromieh central prison in northern Iran, meaning she could now be put to death within weeks.
Zeinab, who hails from a small village in northern Iran, was just 15 when she married her first husband.
Under Iranian law girls can marry at 13-years-old and boys at 15, although international human rights organisations say both parties in a marriage should be aged 18 or over.
During her trial, Zeinab claimed that her husband frequently beat and abused her, a source told Human Rights Watch. However, her claims were dismissed by the court.
The human rights organisation says that Zeinab was informed by authorities this week her execution could take place in the coming weeks.
Iran passed legal reforms in 2013, which give judges the discretion to spare children the death penalty if they do not understand the nature of their crime.
The law also entitles those sentenced to death prior to 2013 to a new trial – but only if they request it. Human Right Watch is calling for all pre-2013 defendents to face a new trial.
‘The 2013 reforms aimed to prevent wrongful conviction of children for capital offenses. If the Iranian government is serious about this goal, it should at a minimum grant everyone facing the death penalty for alleged offenses committed as children a new trial that conforms to international human rights standards,’ the organisation said.
‘This includes Zeinab, an alleged victim of domestic violence, who may otherwise imminently face the gallows.’
So is it until you both are getting laid and smooching upandan before you can say you’re “officially” dating?! That seems to be the mentality this guy has but unfortunately for him, his girl is not having any of it.
Just after two weeks of “dating”, the guy popped the question and asked why the two of them weren’t getting down, since they were together…
The girl, who obviously has zero chills, gave him this response below:
