“This is more serious than you think. I have a WhatsApp group where I teach married women and single ladies sex and sexual health, the day I taught about orgasm, about 80% of the married women have not experienced it. And most of them married to Igbo men, are in sexless and un-romantic marriages.”

Usifo Ataga’s murder: “I killed Ataga all by myself” – Chidinma says in ‘court’ video

A Lagos High Court sitting has watched the chilling footage of Chidinma Ojukwu, the prime suspect in the murder of Super TV CEO, Michael Ataga, confessing to stabbing him to death, all by herself.

Recall that Chidinma, who is standing trial for the alleged murder of Ataga, alongside her sister and third defendant, Chioma Egbuchu, and second defendant Adedapo Quadri, has been on trial since October 12, 2021, when they were arraigned at the high court sitting at the Tafawa Balewa Square (TBS) before Justice Yetunde Adesanya.

At the resumption of proceedings, the prosecution played the video recording from a Compact Disc (CD) on a large screen in the courtroom. The footage showed Ataga lying on the floor facing up with his hands spread open, wearing a white singlet and boxers stained with blood. His head was close to the wall and there was blood on the floor on his right-hand side. There were also large blood stains on the floor, the pillow, and the duvet cover.

“After I got the place on Sunday, we were smoking loud, drinking, watching movies and then I went to get food. The drug we were taking got finished and I ordered another one and went downstairs to get it from the delivery guy in the morning; that was on June 14, 2021.

“Then on Tuesday, we drank and smoked loud and I added Rophynol to his drink and we had sex. I was on the bed and he was on the chair. Then later he started disturbing me for more sex. I was tired and after struggling with him, he had his way and still wanted more.

“He wanted it, he was no longer himself and I thought he was no more interested in sex, only for him to return to the bed to ask for more sex. I pushed him away, which resulted in him hitting his head against a stool that had a glass. He had a cut on his leg and he became weak.

“I got a knife and stabbed him in the neck, ribs and stomach so that he would not be able to harm me. I tied his hands with hand kerchief. His blood was out and I was scared. I just packed everything, my clothes were also stained with blood, I just packed my things and left.

“I took the knife and handkerchief and when I got home, I threw the knife and handkerchief away. Michael (Ataga) was a friend, that we just talked. I didn’t know him that deep and we did not talk regularly.” Chidinma said in the video.

When she was asked in the video if she was assisted in killing the deceased, she replied, “There was nobody that assisted me, I did it alone.”

During examination in chief by prosecution counsel Mrs. Adenike Oluwafemi, Bamidele said the police recovered some items from the defendant’s house, including a small pink purse containing two syringes, eight pieces of Rophynol tablets, two sanitary pads, a small perfume, jewellery, an iPhone, a notebook, a diary, and an HP laptop.

Other items were the defendant’s ID card with her name, Ojukwu Chidinma Adora, Ataga’s driving licence, Ojukwu’s UBA ATM card, a Super net ID card with Ataga’s name, and three other cards that had the deceased’s name and six blank complimentary cards, among others.

In a short ruling, Justice Adesanya dismissed the defendant’s objection and admitted the items in evidence and adjourned till October 12, for the continuation of the trial.

Meanwhile, Chidinma had in an interview with crime fighters in July 2021 weeks after her arrest denied killing the businessman.

She claimed that she had nothing to do with the murder but only found Ataga’s corpse after returning to the service apartment where both of them had lodged. Read here.

“Nigerian migrants bring the most relatives to UK” – British govt says it’s considering tougher visa rules

The British government has said it is considering tightening the rules on how many relatives, immigrants can bring into the country.

According to a recent research by the UK Homie office, it was discovered that Nigerians had the highest number of dependants in the country compared to other groups of migrants.

According to the Times UK, UK Home Secretary, Suella Braverman said the government was considering tightening the rules on dependants after Home Office immigration figures showed a “surprising inconsistency” across different nationalities coming to the UK to work and study.

Based on the Home Office report, Nigerians accounted for 40% of all dependants who accompanied foreign students in the 12 months to June 2022 – despite Nigerian students making up just 7% of all foreign students in that period.

About 34,000 Nigerians were given study visas in the UK, bringing with them a total of 31,898 dependants. A similar ratio was recorded for work visas, with 8,972 Nigerians issued with one in the 12 months to June bringing with them 8,576 dependants.

While 114,837 Chinese students who came to the UK last year brought with them a total of 401 dependants – and 93,049 Indian students came to Britain with 24,916 dependants, the figures show.

Late gospel singer Osinachi Nwachukwu’s husband verbally and physically harassed her – Two employees testify in court.

Two employees of the late gospel singer, Osinachi Nwachukwu, told a Federal Capital Territory High Court in Abuja today, Tuesday, October 11, that her husband, Peter Nwachukwu, verbally and physically harassed her.

Osinachi, best known for her gospel song “Ekwueme,” died on April 8. Her husband’s name. Mr. Nwachukwu is on trial on a 23-count culpable homicide and domestic abuse charge. He has been accused of being the cause of the late gospel singer’s death.

During the case’s resumed hearing today, a former Personal Assistant to the late Osinachi, Adetunji Moses, testified before the prosecution counsel, Yewande Gbola-Awopetu, that Nwachukwu referred to his wife as useless, sluggish, and lazy on multiple occasions during rehearsals.

National Hospital dismisses

Moses said he worked with the defendant and his wife as a PA and also a keyboardist from Sept 2018 to March 2021. According to him, he stopped working them because he could no longer bear the anger of Mr. Nwachukwu which was most times directed at him.

“In 2018, we traveled to Enugu. I was informed by the people who invited us that Nwachukwu left strict instructions that nobody should be allowed to visit mummy Osinachi.
It was later I got to know that her family resided in Enugu and they were the reason he gave the instructions.
On another occasion, we were to travel to Zimbabwe for ministration, and that morning, Nwachukwu got into an argument with his mother-in-law who was visiting at the time and due to the altercation, we missed our flight.
He tried to book us on another flight, but to no avail, and on our way back from the airport, having missed our flight, it was a serious battle as Nwachukwu kept abusing his wife verbally.
He told her that her family members were around to hinder our progress, to shut the door of the ministry and the blessings of God” Moses declared.

The former PA further claimed that the defendant told him not to allow the deceased’s twin sister to share the stage with her during ministration during a program in Lagos. He claimed that on a visit to Uyo for another ministry, a cheque in the deceased’s name was issued, and the defendant followed her to the bank to deposit the money into his account before paying the crew members.

“Some of the crew members like the bass guitarist got angry and left the group because of the defendant’s refusal to keep to the terms of their agreement which to pay them a percentage from every ministration,” he said.
Moses responded in the affirmative when I.A. Aliyu, the defendant’s lead attorney, asked him if the dead frequently complained to him about ulcer pains. How close Moses was to the dead as her PA was a question Aliyu also posed. He claimed that they interacted closely when they traveled for ministry outside of Abuja.

IGP explains

Moses was asked by the defense attorney if he was upset with the defendant because he wouldn’t raise his pay, but he said he wasn’t.

The hair stylist, Ms. Blessing Iyamabe, was also cross-examined. She said before the court that at some point in 2013 when she visited the deceased’s home to get her hair done, the defendant contacted his wife to ask for her car key, but Osinachi instead sent her son to deliver the key to the defendant.

“The defendant got angry, came to where we were making the hair, and slapped his wife.
I witnessed another abuse in 2018. He came to my shop and slapped the deceased for not seeking his permission before coming to the salon” she stated.

She claimed that once, out of dread of the defendant, she had to accompany the deceased to her daughter’s school to make her hair. She claimed that in order to conceal from the defendant, she was forced to create the deceased daughter’s hair in a restroom at a mall.

Aliyu questioned the witness on cross-examination if, as claimed in her statement to the police, she ever counseled the deceased to break off her relationship with the defendant. She retorted that the manner the defendant was treating her prompted her to offer advice.

Iyamabe responded that she had been informed that Osinachi passed away as a result of throat cancer when questioned if she knew what caused her death.

Justice Njideka Nwosu-Iheme, the trial’s presiding judge, postponed the proceedings till Thursday after hearing the testimony.

“As a married woman, you have no business being friends with single ladies” – Nigerian woman advises married women

A Twitter user has sparked a debate on the micro-blogging platform after she advised that married women shouldn’t keep unmarried friends.

According to the tweep identified as Omotayo, a married woman shouldn’t be close friends with a single lady if she wants her marriage to thrive and last.

To further reiterate her stance, she says that after marriage, a married woman no longer shares many things in common with single ladies.

She says for a married woman, her life revolves around her marital life, while a single woman has an entirely different priority.

Her words,

As a married woman, you don’t have any business being friends with a single lady.
As a married woman, 70% of your life revolves around your marital life so yes if you ask me, there are times when your conversations was centered around business, night club, partying, the new guy, holidays, shoppings and all, now she has husband, kids and a home to look after.

I don’t know how you want to put it but the thought and mindset of a single and married lady can never be the same, not like you can’t still have them as friends, they ain’t just the type of close friend you need if you want your marriage to thrive and last long

No one asked you not to have them as friends anyways, they ain’t just the close friends you need because you no longer share many things in common, how do you relate a marital related issue with someone who has never been married for a day? What type of advice are you expecting?

I don’t know how you want to put it but the thought and mindset of a single and married lady can never be the same, not like you can’t still have them as friends, they ain’t just the type of close friend you need if you want your marriage to thrive and last long”.

Omotayo’s post elicited varying reactions on the platform. While some agreed with her, a barrage of others held opposite opinions.

Meanwhile, Nigerian singer cum pastor, Okose Emmanuel, formerly known as Soul E, has told single ladies that their destined husband might be a married man.

The former singer, in a video circulating on social media, said many women are still single because they don’t understand this ‘truth’, and if they are not careful, they might remain single for the rest of their lives.

He explained that if a man marries a woman that’s not his destined soulmate, when he eventually meets the woman that he’s destined to marry, his marriage will become turbulent to give room for his true soulmate.

After establishing this ‘fact’, Soul E advised single women to be sensitive enough to discern when a married man is their destined husband and if they discover that he’s the one for them, they should hold on to him tight.

“If there is anything I understand about God, is that God works in mysterious ways. A lot of women are single today because God has actually sent their husbands but he was a married man.” He said.

Following the current rave among Nigerians to leave the country, a Nigerian man residing in the UK, has given a premium advice to those planning to relocate to the UK.

Speaking in a video making rounds on the internet, the young man advised aspiring UK migrants to make sure they have as much sex as they can before moving to the UK because it’s hard to bed a woman over there.

According to him, since he relocated to the UK a year ago, he has not slept with a woman because most women believe that Nigerian migrants are after their ‘papers’.

Bewailing his inability to satisfy his heightened sexual urge, the young man said that’s the case for most black migrants in the UK hence why Nigerian men have phone sex with women back in Nigeria and request for their nudes to satisfy their sexual urge.

He said in part,

“See me now, I don dey here for good…going to a year now and I never see knack o. I get many of them as friends o, girls everywhere buh them no dey gree knack o cause they believe na paper wan make I knack them because they know say if I knack them Wella na, them fit forget themselves begin follow me”.

Heavily pregnant woman with ulcer hospitalized after embarking on 90 days fasting because pastor said the child will bring blessings

Heavily pregnant woman with ulcer

A lady has taken to Twitter to narrate how a heavily pregnant woman battling with ulcer was hospitalized after embarking on 90-days fasting and prayer because her pastor said the child will bring blessings to her family.

According to @nkay_yo on Twitter, the woman, who is pregnant with her fourth child, was told by her pastor that the child will change the fortune of her family, and instructed her to fast for 90 days to bring the word of prophecy to pass.

@nkay_yo said she met the pregnant woman at the hospital, and her husband was complaining bitterly over his wife’s condition, and because no one from the church showed up to stay with her whereas if someone was ill in the church, his wife would abandon everything she is doing to take care of them.

She tweeted;

“This woman at the hospital is pregnant and has ulcer but she’s been fasting for almost 90 days now because her pastor said so. I wish I was making this up.

The husband has been complaining that no one is around to stay with her as he has to go be with the kids at home. He said if it were other church members she’ll leave her family and go stay with them.

Apparently they’ve had 3 kids and the pastor said this 4th is the one that going to bring the “blessing”. The man has hung his boots long ago and just looking for money to raise his 3 kids. She didn’t even tell him when she got pregnant. The man is just lamenting to us.”
