Controversial Nigerian Prophet, Johnson Suleiman of Omega Fire Ministries has said an imminent deadly explosion is set to ravage a town in Cameroon.

Suleiman, who is said to be known for making false prophesy, made the latest one during a televised church service on Sunday, August 14th, at his ministry’s headquarters in Auchi, Edo State, adding that the explosion would lead to several deaths.

“Cameroon, please pray. What I am seeing now…we have to pray for Cameroon so that the country will not cry…I see something exploding with so many people sitting around the place, I see something exploding…so many people will die. Please take note,” Suleiman prophesied.

He however, did not give details of the nature of the explosion such as town/city or date. Instead he urged his members and Cameroonian citizens to pray in order to avert the “impending tragedy”

Cameroon has since 2013, been under threats of insurgency from the Nigerian terrorist group Boko Haram. The Islamist group have targeted innocent people for murder especially Far North of the country, using suicide bombers.

A 49-year-old businessman, Mr Andrew Ndubisi, on Wednesday prayed an Igando Customary Court in Lagos State to dissolve his marriage to his wife, Saraphina, for allegedly being promiscuous.

The petitioner also said that his wife was secretive, as she had two previous children to two other men before they were married.
Andrew said she failed to bring it to his knowledge.

“My wife had two boys from two men but did not tell me before we married.

“After our marriage, she brought them to live with us and I was paying their school fees.”

“My wife is promiscuous, she dates different men,” Ndubisi told the court.
He also alleged that the wife had an affair with their pastor.

He accused his wife who had a daughter for him in their four-year marriage of adultery.
“My wife is a flirt, she dates different men. I have caught her severally with some of her lovers.

“She is also having an illegal affair with our pastor.

“I got to know when her cell phone rang and she left our room to receive it.

“I trailed her behind without her knowing and l eavesdropped; she ended the call with, ‘I love you’.

“When she returned, I secretly copied the number unknown to her and saved it on my cell phone.

“When I dialled the number on my cell phone, it was our pastor’s name that appeared on its screen.”

He said that Saraphina was too demanding adding that despite the fact that he was always meeting her needs, she was in the habit of stealing his money.

“She once absconded with my daughter to an unknown destination and demanded N30,000 from me before she returned with her.

“I had to send her the money”.

He urged the court to dissolve the marriage, alleging that his wife could infect him with sexually transmitted diseases such as HIV due to her adulterous acts.

Saraphina, 42, also a businesswoman, however, denied all the allegations, saying that instead she had been faithful to her husband.

“I have been faithful to my husband since we got married. I am not dating our pastor, he is just a spiritual father to me,” she said.
She told the court that her husband was hot tempered and was always beating her.

“My husband was always beating me at any slightest provocation; I had suffered injuries in my eyes on three occasions from his beatings.

“He once stripped me Unclad in public and beat the hell out of me.

“There was a day he beat and pushed me down from the staircase and l lost my two-month-old pregnancy.”

She said that her husband also had three children from different women.

It was my husband, Andrew that sent me packing from our matrimonial home after he threatened to kill me.

“I left his house with my daughter then. He later begged me to return which I did and he forcefully snatched my baby from me.

“Up till today, I have not set my eyes on my daughter,” she said.

The president of the court, Mr Adegboyega Omilola, adjourned the case till Aug. 23 for hearing.

A group of teenage cultists were apprehended yesterday with a local gun, bullets and masks while setting out for an robbery operation at New GRA in Enugu state. They were caught by vigilantes in the area who were tipped off by a security man.

Upon interrogation, they said that they are not cultists but were being chased by cultists hence the need for the gun for protection.

One among them who reportedly sells Indian hemp -said he picked the gun and bullets on the roadside. They were later taken to the police station in the area.

The Ebonyi State Police Command is set to arraign the suspects indicted for the abduction, stripping, torture and dehumanization of 15-year-old orphan, Uzoamaka.

According to Hon. Linus Abaa Okorie, who disclosed the development, reliable sources confirm that the arraignment of the suspects is scheduled to take place at the Obiozara magistrate court in Ohaozara LGA of Ebonyi state.

While the specific charges against the suspects are yet unclear, sources point at abduction and torture as being high on the list.

The suspects expected to be arraigned include:
1. Ogbonnaya Ene Odii (Coordinator, Ohaozara Development Centre)
2. Enekwachi Ene Odii
3. Martins
4. Cpl Paulinus Nwodom
5. Cpl Monday Nweke
6. Cpl Obinna Ironsi.

The last three suspects are serving policemen who were yesterday dismissed from service following the decision of an in-house orderly room trial by the state police command.

“With the arraignment of the suspects, all eyes will now be on the governor of the state, Engr. David Umahi Nweze, who a few days ago promised “to act” on whether or not to suspend the Coordinator from office only after the police may have concluded their investigations into the matter,” Hon Okorie writes.

“The pledge was in response to a widespread call on the governor to suspend or totally relieve the suspect of his appointment as Coordinator in his government.

The arraignment of the suspects also marks a watershed in the struggle for justice for the 15 year old minor whose torture and dehumanization shocked all Nigerians and has become a talking point across the globe. Yet it is a call for greater vigilance by all men and women of good conscience to ensure that justice is not only done but seen to have been done at the end of the day. Let’s keep faith with Uzoamaka until deserved justice is achieved.” he added.

A 30-year-old trader has been arrested by the police in Ogun state for naming his pet dog ‘Buhari.’

The trader, Joe Fortemose Chinakwe, residing in Sango-Ota, Ogun State, was reportedly arrested last weekend, after one of his neighbours of Northern extraction complained bitterly that he named his dog after his father, Alhaji Buhari.

Vanguard learned that the complainant reported the case at Sango Police Station, last Saturday, after which the trader was arrested and detained.

However, it was gathered that efforts by the police to recover the dog, which they intended using as evidence failed following a clever move by the suspect.

The trader, said to be trading in female wears at a popular market in Sango, allegedly directed his friends secretly to kill the dog and possibly eat the meat in order to avoid being implicated.

It was gathered that consistent appeals by his friends and relations for the police to grant him bail failed as the complainant and his kinsmen reportedly threatened to kill the trader if he was released on bail.

The case, however, took a different dimension two days later when Chinakwe’s relatives went to Sango police station to further plead for his bail only to be informed that the case file and the suspect have been transferred to Ogun State Police Command headquarters at Eleweran.

A relation to the suspect, who simply identified himself as Chiedozie, told Vanguard that his brother was being persecuted for no just cause and expressed fears that he may either be poisoned inside police cell or thrown into jail. Chiedozie said:

“Chinakwe is a lover of dogs and he names them after things that tickle him. He bought this dog a year ago and named it Buhari. Unfortunately, some Northerners, who dominate the vicinity where he resides misconstrued his intention and connived to take him up. The complainant then claimed it was derogatory because his father answers Buhari.”

Police sources, however, told Vanguard that the actions of the suspect “were very provocative.” The source said:

“he not only named the dog Buhari but boldly wrote it on the body of both sides of the dog and was seen parading the neighbourhood dominated by Northerners with it.”

As at press time, relations to the suspect were still making frantic efforts to effect his bail while his accusers are insisting that he must be prosecuted.

When contacted around 8pm yesterday, the acting Police spokesman in Ogun State, Abimbola Oyeyemi, ASP, said he was still trying to get the Divisional Police Officer in-charge of Sango for details. Oyeyemi later called, stating that:

“I have made enquiries. The man bought a dog and inscribed Buhari on both sides of its body. One Mallam lodged a complaint and when our men got there, we found out that it was true. You know such thing can cause serious breach of the peace and ethnic or religious unrest. We are charging him to court for conduct likely to cause a breach of peace.” He was arrested last Saturday and we are taking him to court later today (Tuesday) or tomorrow morning (today). You know an average Northerner will feel bad over such a thing. It can cause serious ethnic crisis or religious confrontation because when you are relegating such a name to a certain person, you are indirectly insulting him.” When asked about the whereabouts of the dog that will be used as evidence against the suspect, the police spokesman said: “The dog cannot follow anybody except the owner. We will use him as our evidence because he did not deny it.”
