February 3, 2023

Students of the University of Benin (UNIBEN) have clashed with soldiers of the Nigerian Army over what many alleged to be oppression by military officers.

The soldiers clashed with the students after trying to withdraw money from the school ATM and allegedly ordered students to lie down.

This did not sit well with several students, culminating in an exchange of words and the institution’s Chief Security Officer (CSO) involvement.

The soldiers were alleged to have attacked and slapped the CSO, who had tried to make peace between the soldiers and the students.

According to a source at the scene;

“The soldiers came into the school to withdraw the new naira notes. And they told all students to lie down. Some Uniben students did not agree and started dragging with them. The fight escalated, and was taken to the school security office.
The soldiers slapped the CSO and injured two students who were taken to UBTH. The school security still allowed them to leave. SUG and other comrades got angry and blocked the expressway.
The soldiers did the same thing yesterday. They told students to lie down while they withdrew money.”

State Police Command PRO, Chidi Nwabuzor, stated that he was outside Benin and unaware of the clash.

Confirming the clash, Iwegbu Jennifer, the State Command 2I/C PRO, said the soldiers from S and T barracks had broken students’ phones and injured some of them, including the Uniben CSO. Angered by the act, the police spokesperson said students retaliated, and the whole clash escalated.

According to her, the situation was only calmed after the soldiers’ RSM got involved, promising to look into the matter.

The PRO of the institution Mrs. Benedicta Ehanire said: “The VC (Vice Chancellor) has spoken to them (students) and the Army authorities.”

She wrote,

“Parents who actually have money and say “I don’t give my kids money cuz I want them to work hard but give the money to charity and random people = Weird”
1 dont know why people think struggling is cute, it’s not, u struggled and made money, why do u want ur kids to struggle? Is it struggle competition?
U are in ur late 70’s, ur child has mental problems and a child and she clearly needs ur help, u cut her off anyways that’s why this kids are killing their parents for inheritance.
If u have money,ur kids should not lack anything I mean nothing even if they want it in excess, give them, when u aren’t here, they will figure it out. I know tons of wealthy men and women and their children don’t have a $
Why do u have the damn money? For who? But they give their sugar babies money but won’t give their own children.”

Nigerian singer, Oxlade has been fined five million by the Lagos High Court over his leaked sex tape with a woman on Snapchat.

Recall that in 2022, a sex tape of the singer surfaced online without the knowledge and consent of the woman in the video identified as John Blessing.

Following the outrage the leaked footage triggered, the singer was forced to tender a public apology both to his fans and Blessing.

Despite the singer’s apology, Blessing filed a lawsuit seeking N20 million in damages and a declaration that Oxlade’s act of recording the explicit sexual acts without her knowledge and consent constituted a flagrant violation of enabling laws and a gross violation of her fundamental rights to dignity, privacy, and freedom from discrimination guaranteed by Sections 34 and 37 of the 1999 Constitution (as amended); and Articles 5 of the African Charter on Human and People’s Rights.

Justice Olalekan Oresanya criticized the singer’s actions in surreptitiously recording and posting the tape online as “despicable, awful, nasty, and classless” in a ruling dated January 24, 2023.

He also warned Oxlade not to repeat similar behavior in his future relationship with the opposite sex.

The judge further chastised Oxlade for disrespecting the legal process and accused his lawyer of assisting him in desecrating the court.

According to the consent judgment, Oxlade must pay the claimant N5 million in two installments of N2 million and N3 million.

The judgment prohibits her from beginning any additional legal procedure or any process relating to the facts and matters giving rise to the litigation, as well as from instituting or addressing the concerns raised in the claim on any platform or before any third person.

Portable claimed that the director switched from making music videos for Asake since Seyi is the country’s newest booming singer.

According to him, Seyi Vibez has completely embraced Asake’s pattern and is now using it to cash out.

Portable asserted that threw was no love in the industry, which is why TG Omori was able to switch from Asake despite everything so easily.

He then chastised Seyi for not having his own style, advising him to alter his pattern and be unique like him because people are drawn to him because of his unique pattern and way of doing everything. watch here

Recall that Funke welcomed the twin boys with her now-estranged husband, JJC Skillz, in 2018 and has since kept the children’s faces out of the public eye.

As a result, as soon as the nanny noticed they were being filmed, she quickly pulled the twins closer and covered their faces.

The act earned her accolades from social media users, who noted that she’s competent.

However, speaking in a recent interview with media personalities, Jide Okonjo Funke revealed why she’s yet to unveil her children’s faces.

The mother of two noted that when her children are old enough, they can decide for themselves if they want to show their faces and be in the public eye or not.

“Their dad and I are already in the public eye. They are children, don’t forget. They are children . They are vulnerable so you have to just keep them away, keep them safe. Let them go to school, let them enjoy their lives without “Ah!” that’s Jenifa’s son. That’s JJC’s son. Ah see his leg, see his face” Leave them private!” She said.

God is not tired of me though; he’s not tired of me, that I know. I don’t know how to put in words, but it’s deeper than I’m saying, yeah, it’s deeper.

There is no lecturer from my Day one to my finals I have business with. I will swear with my Life. I have never sorted any course before from day one in Poly Nekede to finals. That’s why I said it can only be God. It only God that sees me through. My GP in school is not even high. Even last exam which was CBT, I went there, did ‘timbum timbum’ and submitted.” She said.

Operatives of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission, ICPC, has arrested an actress, Omoseyin Oluwadarasimi Esther, aka Simisola Gold, with Twitter handle @SimisolaofLala, for selling new naira notes on social media.

According to a statement signed by ICPC’s spokesperson, Azuka Ogugua, in Abuja on Wednesday night, Simisola Gold was arrested following an intelligence report which led the anti-corruption agency to find and promptly arrest her.

The suspect is currently in ICPC custody and is helping the commission with its investigation on the criminal trading of the naira, which has resulted in scarcity and negative economic outcomes.

The statement reads,

“Oluwadarasimi Emma, a social media ‘serial entrepreneur’ who deals in skincare, sales of fuel, facilitation of foreign travels through visa acquisitions, and other businesses, seized the opportunity of the scarcity of the new naira notes to openly market the new notes. It is believed she is in collusion with key elements in the financial services sector diverting the newly released notes away from banking halls and payment channels into a ‘black market.’

She is currently in ICPC detention and is helping the Commission with its findings on the criminal trading of the naira and the attendant scarcity and negative economic outcomes being caused by the action. The action is in furtherance of the collaboration between CBN, ICPC and EFCC in implementing the new cashless policy and naira redesign.”

Sharaban had set up a fake Instagram account and contacted multiple women who resembled her. After checking multiple profiles, she found a beauty blogger, 23-year-old Khadidja O, from Algeria, who lived about 100 miles away.

Both women share similar features – long dark hair and similar complexion.

According to investigators, the suspect and her lover contacted Khadidja and offered her a set of beauty products, after which they went to pick her up.

On their way back, they stopped in a forest, lured the victim out of the car and stabbed her more than 50 times. The couple then left the corpse in the back seat of Sharaban’s Mercedes and fled.

When Sharaban failed to return home, her parents launched seach for her in Ingolstadt and found her car near the Danube.

On the back seat of the car, the corpse of a dark-haired woman brutally murdered with her face mutilated beyond recognition was found, and they believed it was their daughter.

However, an autopsy and DNA tests revealed that the corpse was actually Khadidja’s. The culprits were then arrested.

Veronika Grieser, an Ingolstadt prosecutor, who confirmed the incident to Bild newspaper said,

“It has been confirmed that the accused had contacted several women via Instagram before the act who seemed to look similar to her.

“It can be assumed that the suspect wanted to go into hiding, due to internal disputes with her family, and fake her own death.”
