Renewed Jos Crisis, 32 Reportedly Dead

fewer than 32 people were killed in the early hours of Tuesday in Barakin Ladi Local Government Area of Plateau State when gunmen suspected to be Fulani herdsmen invaded three communities in the council.

Police, however, said only 20 people were killed. The incident came less than 72 hours after five people were similarly murdered in Kukah in Shendam Local Government Area.

Our correspondent gathered that the marauders overran Gura Bwok, Fan, Heipang and Foron districts of the local government, killing some of the residents and burning some houses.

It was further gathered that nine people were killed in Gura Bwok, seven in Fan, 11 people in Heipang and five people in Foron.

Several houses were also said to have been razed down in the attack, which was said to be a reprisal against last week’s theft of more than 200 herds of cattle belonging to the herdsmen by some unidentified persons.

It was also gathered that two Fulani herdsmen were killed by the cattle thieves as  men of the Special Task Force tried to intervene.

The state Police Public Relations Officers, Felicia Anselm, said the killing was in revenge against the theft of cows and the alleged killing of two of the herdsmen, said to be Fulani, by the cattle thieves.

She said the police had intervened by deploying units of men of the anti-terrorist squad in the area.

The PPRO said, “Calm has been restored in the place and a unit of anti-terrorism squad and regular and riot policemen, including the STF, have been sent to the area.”

Festus Keyamo Confirms Asari Dokubo's Arrest In Cotonou, Taken To Unknown Destination

A Former Niger Delta militant, Mujahid Asari-Dokubo, was on Tuesday arrested in Cotonou, capital of Benin Republic.

It was learnt that the ex-militant was arrested at about 1.00pm by the Benin Republic’s police.

A statement by his lawyer, Festus Keyamo confirmed the arrest, saying Asari-Dokubo was picked up around the Lubeleyi roundabout and taken to “an unknown destination.”

Keyamo, in the statement on Tuesday, argued that Asari-Dokubo was not arrested for running any illegitimate business in the country.

The lawyer noted that the ex-militant had been residing partly in Benin Republic for many years, adding that Asari-Dokubo owns property in Cotonou.

It was gathered that the ex-militant reportedly opened a private university – King Amachree African University, in Benin Republic.

The university is preparing to start degree-awarding programmes in 2014.

The statement reads in part, “Today, Tuesday, November 26, 2013, my friend and client, Alhaji Mujahid Dokubo-Asari, was arrested in Cotonou, Benin Republic, around the hours of 1pm and 2pm by the country’s gendarmes (police).

“He was picked up around the Lubeleyi roundabout and taken to an unknown destination. In fact, he owns houses, schools and an academy in that country. All these places have been searched as of this evening and nothing incriminating was found.”

Keyamo expressed the conviction that “Dokubo’s arrest and detention are a ploy by certain forces in Nigeria in an unholy alliance with the Beninoise government to keep him away as 2015 approaches.

“We call on the Nigerian government to immediately intervene and ensure that no harm befalls Alhaji Dokubo-Asari and to use all diplomatic means to secure his immediate release and safe return to Nigeria.”

Asuu Strike Update: NEC Meeting Finally Postponed Till Jan 15 As More Versities Consider Pulling Out

More schools are set to dump the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, in the ongoing strike action embarked upon by the union for almost five months now.

This is as the National Executive Council, NEC, of the union meets today to decide on the sustained industrial action which many Nigerians have come to condemn.

The leadership of ASUU had postponed the scheduled NEC meeting at the Bayero University, Kano, following the demise of Festus Iyayi, a former president of the union, who died Tuesday last week in a motor accident along the Abuja-Lokoja highway.

The postponement of the NEC meeting to January 15, 2014, had caused widespread outcry as not a few Nigerians – students, parents and other stakeholders – condemned the decision of the union, saying it was evident of insensitivity to the plight of Nigerian students who are worst hit.

Following the development, several universities were said to have begun to hold talks on how to dump the national body and call off the ongoing strike in their respective institutions.

Regardless of the ongoing strike, some universities scheduled dates for their post-Universities Matriculation Examination, UME, exercises.

For instance, Lagos State University, LASU; the University of Lagos, UNILAG; and the University of Jos, UNIJOS, all scheduled to conduct the post UME examinations, although the national body frowned at their decision and stalled the examinations in most schools.

The Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba Akoko, AAUA, in Ondo State has already pulled out of the strike.

In a statement issued and signed by its registrar, R.B Olotu, the school had ordered its students to resume for the second semester on November 25, thereby boycotting the nationwide strike.

“All students of AAUA are hereby informed that academic activities of the second semester of 2012/2013 session truncated as a result of the ASUU national strike are to resume on Monday, November 25, 2013 with the continuation of registration on the university portal, while lectures are to start on Monday, December 2, 2013,” the statement read.

At the Niger State-owned Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida University, Lapai (IBBUL), some academic staff have already commenced teaching.

This has caused some rancour among ASUU as some lecturers and students have returned to the classrooms since Monday following the re-opening of the institution by the management. But the branch ASUU Chairman, Dr. Aliyu Badeggi, insisted that the strike was still in force in the institution.

Investigations by showed that lectures have resumed only in three departments – English and Linguistics, Mathematics and Physics, while Mass Communication, Business Administration and other Sciences were yet to resume lectures.

The Vice Chancellor, Professor Ibrahim Kolo, had last Friday directed students to resume lectures on Monday, after an emergency Senate meeting approved the re-opening of the institution.

Investigations reveal that several other institutions, especially those who voted for the suspension of the strike, are set to dump the union if it decides to continue with the ongoing strike after today’s meeting.

It was therefore no surprise when news filtered in that UNILAG and LASU were set to conduct degree and matriculation examinations outside their campuses.

Also, sources say the Enugu State University of Technology, ESUT, is set to call off the strike if at the end of today’s meeting ASUU still decides to go on with the strike.

The Adamawa State University was also reported to have pulled out of the strike.

Worried by this development, president of ASUU, Dr. Nasir Fagge has warned vice chancellors to desist from conducting off-campus examinations or other academic activities, as such moves could jeopardise the stand of the union.

“We appeal to our VCs to cease from further eroding the credibility of the academic profession which the iconic status of their offices represents. They should remember that they are destroying themselves and their professional calling by desecrating the sacred ethos of university degree and selection examination,” Fagge said.

It would be recalled that the 61 chapters of the association met on Monday last week to vote in their various institutions for or against the suspension of the strike.

Not a few Nigerians had expected that the personal intervention of the president would pacify the striking lecturers and persuade them to suspend the strike action; but instead, the industrial action had continued.

ASUU had however directed that all its 61 chapters hold their congresses on Monday, November 11.

While some chapters were ready to suspend the strike in the light of the president’s intervention, others insisted that they would continue the strike due to what they described as their distrust for the government.

Whereas the University of Lagos resolved to suspend the strike, chapters like the University of Ibadan, UI; University of Benin, UNIBEN; University of Calabar, UNICAL; University of Jos, UNIJOS, and the Lagos State University, LASU, vowed to continue as they insisted that the government cannot be trusted to fulfil its promise to inject over N1.1 trillion to universities in the next five

Revealed: How Onyii Alex Snatched Tonto Dikeh's Rich Lover

Alex onyii was said to have snatched tonto dikeh's rich lover, below is how showbiz plus reported it

You remember the Tonto Dikeh depression saga and how the actress talked about ending her own life?. Well, read the real reason behind the depression below according to Showbizplus:

Sexy actress and one of the hottest babes in Nollywood, Onyii Alex is heavy and expecting a love child with her multi-millionaire Igbo lover and married man, Promise, whom she allegedly snatched from Tonto Dikeh.
Aside the pregnancy stress, another challenge facing the slim-built thespian Onyii is the fact that she’s been living in hiding since her pregnancy came into the open.
A reliable insider told  disclosed that the bitter and angry wife of her lover, has allegedly threatened to deal ruthlessly with Onyii whenever or wherever their paths crossed.
And in order to avoid the impending wrath of the enraged and betrayed house wife, Onyii’s lover boy who always spoils her silly with gifts and the good things of life, has whisked her abroad for safety and safe delivery, pending when frayed nerves are calmed.
Surprisingly too, Nollywood bad girl and controversial actress, Tonto Dikeh, whom Onyii callously snatched Mr Promise from, is also threatening fire and brimstone.
According to one of Miss Dikeh’s close pals, she has vowed to pay Onyii back in her own coin at the appropriate time.
“Forget that story of Tonto wanting to commit suicide over the media intrusion into her privacy. The real cause was Onyii, who snatched her rich and doting sugar daddy Promise, thus leaving her high and dry. The separation with Promise, which was caused by Alex, whom Promise dumped Tonto for upon meeting her on a location around Festac, remains one of the saddest chapters in Tonto’s life. And I’m sure she has not gotten over it full time. She is still sulking,” disclosed this insider.
So many contacts made to  try reaching Dike and Onyii for reactions, but could not get across. Several calls to their phones responded they were switched off.
