Driver Steals Company Car Over N25,000 Reduction From His Salary. (Photo)

Eneche Steals Car

Godwin Eneche, a driver with Cerendry Solutions has been apprehended by the Lagos state police command for allegedly absconding with a Hilux car belonging to the company.

Eneche told pressmen that he left with the car in order to sell it due to the unjust deduction of N25,000 from his salary by the company.

He said:

“After finishing my secondary school education, I got a job as a driver with Cerendry Solutions on Victoria Island. I have worked with them for a number of years.

“In June 2015, I had an accident. It was not my fault. A reckless driver had brushed the vehicle and it needed repairs. My supervisor, who was also there, said the man should not pay for the damage, and he left.

“But when I returned to the office, they deducted money from my salary. My supervisor did not plead with the management on my behalf. They deducted about N25, 500. I felt cheated.

“So, I escaped with the Hilux in October. I then took it to my family house in Abuja, and told my uncle what had happened. He was afraid. So I moved on to Kaduna. I was in the Maraba Rido area. I was using the vehicle to convey tomatoes and pepper. I was also looking for buyers.

“One of the prospective buyers was one Alhaji, who wanted to buy the van for N800,000. That was on October 29. But I was arrested on October 30. I was arrested in Kaduna and driven to Lagos.

But if I secure my release, I will not go back to crime. This is my first time of being arrested by the police,” he narrated.

According to the police, the case of conspiracy and stealing was reported by one of the executives of the company, Mrs. Salamat, to the Special Anti-Robbery Squad, Ikeja.

Paris Terrorist Fugitive Is Apprehended In Belgium. (Photos)

Paris Terrorist

The Belgian police have launched a major anti-terror raid in Molenbeek this morning in an effort to capture Salah Abdeslam.

According to Belgian media, one man has been arrested after Belgian police stormed an apartment in the jihadi hotspot of Molenbeek. It is understood officers fired CS gas in through a Velux window into the building to incapacitate the man before entering.

Belgian public broadcaster RTBF confirmed that one man has been arrested at the scene but it was not Adeslam, who is still on the run.

French police said the mastermind of the Paris attacks is Belgian, Abdelhamid Abaaoud, one of ISIS’ top executioners who even took 13-year-old brother to fight in Syria.

Paris Terrorists

Frenchman Salah Abdeslam, 26, from a suburb of Brussels known as the ‘jihadi‘ capital of Europe, is now the subject of a vast international manhunt – but incredibly he was stopped and then released by officers guarding the Belgian border hours after the attacks.

One of his brothers, Ibrahim Abdeslam, 31, was one of seven terrorists who died on Friday night after he blew himself up in a solo attack outside cafe Comptoir Voltaire. He had rented a black Seat found yesterday in Paris packed with AK-47s and ammunition.

The third sibling, Mohammed Abdeslam, was in custody in Belgium last night after being arrested in a Brussels, where the ISIS terror cell may have met before the raid to gather automatic weapons and suicide vests.

It is now thought that the attacks were planned in Belgium by terrorists who communicated with each under the noses of security using Sony’s PlayStation 4.

Trained negotiators have warned those inside the property to ‘leave with their hands up.

Aunt Tortures Toddler To Coma For Defecating. (Photo)

Peter-Monday

A housewife, identified as Grace Monday, has reportedly been arrested in Lagos for allegedly torturing her three-year-old niece, Miracle Peter, to a coma.

Monday allegedly flogged the victim for several hours at their home in the Ireodun, Agege area of Lagos State and subsequently slammed her head against a wall causing the toddler to faint.

According to Punch, Monday had been married for seven years without a child and had traveled to Kaduna sometime in July, 2015, to get the victim from her elder brother.

It was learnt that the toddler was always messing up the house with excrement and after verbal correction did not work, the suspect resorted to beating her.

On the day the toddler was beaten to a coma, she was rushed to a private hospital and was later referred to a general hospital in the state for intensive care.

Monday’s neighbour, Adijat Fatai, said she had warned her on several occasions to stop flogging the victim. She said:

“Miracle (Peter) always defecated all over the house. I called Grace and advised her to be patient with the little girl because it could be that God was using the girl to test her patience.
“Sometime in October, I saw her cleaning the child up after she had defecated; she was beating her as well. I warned her three different times to stop flogging her because it was getting excessive. She didn’t listen to me and I immediately suspected she was under a spell.
“I told her husband to caution her but he told me Miracle’s father instructed them to beat her till she stopped purging. I left them and went inside my room. It was the following morning she came to call me that the girl had fainted.”

The publication gathered that the landlord, Fatai Alimi, reported the matter at the Isokoko Police Division. He alleged that Monday had inflicted several injuries on the body of the victim, adding that she slammed Peter’s head against the wall.

“We rushed her to a private hospital and I had to borrow money for her to be admitted and treated because the hospital management said we must deposit some money. She spent three days at the hospital. When they could no longer handle it, they referred her to a general hospital,” he added.

Alimi, who said Peter was placed on oxygen, added that she was incapacitated by the torture. But a friend of the suspect, Alice Abuye, claimed that Monday did not slam her niece’s head against the wall.

Abuye, who claimed to be a confidante of the suspect, said she (Monday) had called her to express her frustration with Peter’s incessant defecation.

“Grace (Monday) loves little children. Unfortunately, she had been married for seven years without any issue. She said I should release my child to her so she could train her till she got her own but I refused. I told her to go to her village and get her relative’s child.
“On the night preceding the incident, she called me that the girl had started defecating again. After beating her, Miracle (Peter) told her if she confessed the reason for her misbehaviour, some spiritual forces would punish her. Grace and her husband prayed till 3am after hearing that.
“Around 8am, she woke up and saw that Miracle was still sleeping. She woke her up to give her a bath. She was about leaving the house when she saw the girl had hit her head against the wall. Grace did not touch her.”

But the Divisional Police Officer, Isokoko Police Division, Badmos Dolapo, said she was in tears after seeing the victim.

“In all my years in the police force, I have never cried. But seeing the damage that had been done to this child, I could not hold back tears; I wept like a baby. She had been brutalised. We will not leave any stone unturned in this case,” she said.

The Lagos State Office of the Public Defender had taken custody of the victim. The Public Relations Officer of the OPD, Adeoba Adeniji-Adele, who spoke for the Director of the agency, Mrs. Omotola Rotimi, said the victim could no longer walk.

He said the agency was awaiting the doctor’s report on the case.

image-600x400

The Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), Tuesday, called on Nigerians to desist from panic buying of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS), also known as fuel, stating that it has about 23 days of product supply in all its depots across the country.

Reacting to the resurgence of fuel queues in some cities across the country, the NNPC, in a statement by Mr. Ohi Alegbe, Group General Manager, Group Public Affairs Division, stated that its depots have about 927.461 million litres of PMS which is enough to serve the country for the next 23 days if no drop of the product is imported within the period.

The NNPC blamed the resurgence of queues at petrol filling stations on rumour of an impending scarcity, assuring that it has enough products to meet the demand of the country.

It also warned oil marketers not to engage in sharp practices, stating that anyone found wanting would be dealt with decisively.

7 clear signs you and your partner are meant for each other

Is there a certain factor that makes a relationship last?

We know some couples stay together for some months, years then break up when things turn sour. Others stay together, make it through marriage till death keeps them apart. How can you tell if you and your partner are meant to be together?

Inspired by All Women Stalk, here are a few signs that your relationship is meant to last:

1. No pretence: You both are real with each other. No pretences involved.

2. You both can almost read each other’s minds. You know when your support is needed and give it before your partner asks.

3. You both respect your need for space. You both understand there’s always a time for everything including a ‘me’ time.

See the rest on next page

7 things to do if you want to end up in a serious relationship

happy-african-american-couple-man-woman-hug

Maintaining a serious relationship can be tasking . A successful long term relationship is a joint effort between two committed people.

If you have something ‘real’ and ‘special’ with someone you see a future with, here are 7 things to do which will make you more committed.

1. Look for the right partner: Keep your eyes open for ‘wife and husband materials’. If you spot a potential player, there’s no need dating them thinking they’ll change. Find someone who compliments you.

2. Be matured: Partying and drinking like a teenager is a no-no. Be more responsible, get a job and earn a good living. This would make you more independent and ready to handle what comes your way.

3. Be with someone who wants a serious relationship as you do: This crosses out the players and emotionally unavailable people. If you are ready to commit, find someone who’s on the same page with you.

4. Make more effort: Loving someone involves not running away after two fights. We all know it’s not easy, but if this is worth fighting for, then don’t let anything stop you.

15 Most Crazy Bus Stop Names In Lagos

Danfo-conductor-main_1-1024x682

If you get aboard a Lagos bus and after a while you hear the conductor call out “under!”, “Killer!”, ” Masha!” don’t panic, it is not the beginning of madness, he is just calling out bus-stops; so where is your stop?

There are so many humorous things that take place while traveling on a Lagos commercial bus, certain things that happen or that are said, are just enough to keep you laughing if you take a second thought at them.

For me the bus-stops in Lagos and the way these conductors call them out, gets me laughing always. So you have bus-stop like “Westminster” pronounced as “West Minister” and you can’t but laugh to tears.

There many more bus-stops which i find funny, either in their pronunciation or in the meaning of their names as it were.

Perhaps I should give you some heads-up, every major landmark in Lagos eventually is used as a bus-stop, and in the case of no major building/edifice; then the nearest Iroko tree becomes the bus-stop for the area.

This theory holds majorly for residents in the mainland, as the Lagos-Island tends to have a good number bus-stops with straight names.

Without spoiling the fun, here are some of the craziest and funniest names i have found of the lot that exist around the Lagos megalopolis.

Come “along”, yes, ‘along’ is yet another bus-stop’s name.

1. Cemetry Bustop

There are so many cemetery bus-stops across Lagos. The simple rationale for the bus-stop name, being that the cemetary located around the corner is about the most popular place to reckon with within the area.

Seriously, I mean, how can you say you live at “Cemetery bus stop”?

2. Moshalashi

Moshalashi means mosque, and there are major mosques in virtually every part of Lagos. You can rarely go to on any Local government are which doesn’t have a Moshalashi- bus stop.

“That’s How I Know That I’ve Written a Good Song For Myself — It’s When I Start Crying” – Adele

adele-new-song-19oct15

British Singer and songwriter, Adele gave an insight into how she often get caught up in her own songs, and she wouldn’t want to change that.

“In order for me to feel confident with one of my songs it has to really move me,” she said.

“That’s how I know that I’ve written a good song for myself — it’s when I start crying. It’s when I just break out in [expletive] tears in the vocal booth or in the studio, and I’ll need a moment to myself.”

That heart-on-sleeve emotion, conveyed by a gorgeous voice, has made Adele, now 27, one of the most universally beloved singers and songwriters of the 21st century. Adele, whose last name is Adkins, won the Grammy as Best New Artist with her 2008 debut album, “19.”

She multiplied her audience with “21,” her 2011 album full of breakup songs — angry, regretful, lonely, righteous — that used modern production touches around vocals filled with old-fashioned soul. It has sold 30 million albums worldwide, 11 million in the United States. Beyond the power of Adele’s voice and the craftsmanship of the music, “21” communicated a palpable sincerity and urgency, the feeling that its wounds were still fresh.

When I Was a Younger Artiste I Did Not Care About My Image – Naeto C Reveals Why He Stopped Sagging

 

8b05ee57

Nigerian Rapper, Afrobeat artiste and record producer Naeto C shared his thought on Sagging, he also revealed how he felt when his song ‘Tony Montana’ was banned.

Speaking recently with Punch, the ‘Ringtone’ crooner said he didn’t see any sense in the ban because they had to wait for three years before placing the ban. According to him, ‘the board was late.’

It will be recalled that the Nigerian Broadcasting Commission, NBC, earlier this year, placed a ban on his music video, ‘Tony Montana.’ Naeto said, “I felt the board was very late in banning the song because I released that song in 2012 and it was banned in 2015.

“Also, in the video, there was a disclaimer that no one should try the stunts we did in the video and if they had seen the music video, they would have seen the disclaimer.

If they are going to ban the music video because we used guns in it, then they should ban movies with guns and occult scenes,” the singer added.

“However, that is our reality,” he continued, saying, “I don’t think we communicated anything in a distasteful manner neither did we communicate the wrong message to kids.

I have two kids and naturally when you have kids, you think about other kids in whatever you do.

“I respect the organisation and I would not talk down on it but I don’t think there was any sense in it; it was not necessary to ban the video,” he noted. Responding to why he stopped ‘sagging’, he said, “Yeah, I used to sag a lot. I think I grew up and realised it looked silly.

“When I was a younger artiste, I did not care much about my image. But now that I am grown, I pay attention to my image because the people I perform for are my clients. “My client is a mature person who obviously can afford my services.

You don’t want your client to see you as irresponsible because tomorrow, when you go to the same client for a business proposition, he would not take you seriously if you are sagging.
