Thugs Attack Mushin, kills Pregnant Woman, Daughter

Gunmen on Monday night stormed Amodu Street, off Akala Street, Mushin, Lagos State, killing an eight-month pregnant woman, Musili Bello, and her 12-year-old daughter, Suliat Olowu.

It was learnt that a commercial motorcycle rider, identified simply as Baba Monday, was also shot to death in the operation which was said to have lasted for about 20 minutes.

Our correspondent, who visited the scene on Tuesday, observed that the thugs riddled several houses with bullets and also vandalised some vehicles.

The slain woman’s father, Tajudeen Odusanwo, revealed that his daughter was shot in the stomach and in the face, while his granddaughter was shot in the head.

He said, “Between 9.30 and 10pm, my daughter and granddaughter were getting ready to close the shop when some armed thugs from the railway line stormed the street and started shooting sporadically.

“They shot my granddaughter in the head while my daughter, who is eight months pregnant, was shot in the stomach and in the face.”

Relatives of the  deceased were seen crying when our correspondent visited their residence.

A relative, who did not identify herself, said, “Suliat (Olowu) was our baby. She was very intelligent and we used to call her Suliat kan, Aiyetoro kan. Her mother, Musili, even though pregnant, had been praying and fasting because she had been warned that something evil might happen.”

When our correspondent visited the third victim’s house, his family members were said to have taken his corpse to the mortuary.

The Area D Commander, ACP MD Garba; the Divisional Police Officer, Alakara Police Station, Anthony Okosun; the Officer in charge of Baker Unit, CSP Waheed Ayilara; and the Divisional Police Officer, Mushin Station, Fidelis Okafor; were with about 30 policemen in the area.

The police officers commiserated with the victims’ families and promised to beef up security in Mushin.

Residents, who came out in droves, urged the police to ensure that the culprits were brought to book.

A trader, Olabisi Shodiya, said, “We have been living in fear for too long. Last night, when they stormed our area, many of us hid inside the gutters with our children in order to avoid being hit. We can no longer sleep with our two eyes closed and we want the police to save us.”

An eyewitness, who craved anonymity, said the attackers came from Fadeyi and Ereko streets.

He said many of the culprits had been arrested and charged to court last year for murder but were released under controversial circumstances.

“The guys that invaded our streets were Oriyomi, aka Muda; Lanre Pumping, Mufu Magnet, Sars, Apdul, Monsuru 50 cent and Aglar,” he said.

It was learnt that Oriyomi and Lanre Pumping had been declared wanted by the Lagos State Police Command, while Aglar had been arrested by the Alakara Police Division.

When our correspondent left the area around 2.30pm, it was observed that policemen had set up three pin-down points in the area.

Policemen from the Anti-Terrorism Squad, Alakara Division and the Area D Command were seen patrolling the adjoining streets of Alhaji Lasisi and Akala.

The Police Public Relations Officer, Ngozi Braide, who confirmed the incident, said the police authorities in the state would focus more on the area, with the intention of removing criminals and criminalities there.

She added, “For now, we have arrested five suspects in connection with the incident. More will still be done to fish out the culprits.”

Cross Country Transport boss In Efcc Net Over N82.85 M Scam

A Lagos High Court in Ikeja has fixed February 6 for the arraignment of a major transport firm, Cross Country Limited, and its Chairman, Mr. Bube Okorodudu, for stealing N82.85m.

They were charged along with Car Link Limited by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission with nine counts of stealing, conspiracy to steal, forgery and uttering.

The EFCC alleged that the accused conspired among themselves and stole the money, being proceeds of alleged fraudulent sale of 17 units of Volkswagen transporter buses belonging to AG Moeller Limited.

The anti-graft agency filed the suit, with charge number, ID/2679C/13 and dated August 1, 2013, before Justice Lateef Lawal-Akapo.

According to Mr. Francis Usani, who signed the charges on behalf of the EFCC, the accused stole the money between February 13, 2008 and August 14, 2009.

Those the EFCC claimed the buses were fraudulently sold to were GMT Nigeria Ltd; Multichoice Nigeria Ltd; and Law Union and Rock/TFS Finance Ltd.

The accused were said to have forged and “uttered” a document titled: ‘Nigeria Customs Service Motor Vehicle Duty Certificate’ with number A008911777 to facilitate the alleged stealing.

The alleged offence was said to have contravened section 390 of the Criminal Code Cap. C17 Vol. 2 Laws of Lagos State of Nigeria 2003.

The prosecution claimed that other offences of forgery and uttering violated provisions of Sections 467 and 468 of the same law.

Omotola Jalade Criticized By Fans Over New Song

Criticisms has continued to trail Nollywood star actress, Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde’s singing ability, following the release of her new single, Barren Land, off her second album titled: Me, Myself and Eyes. This came on the heels of her recent interview with CNN, where she was played up as a multi-talented actress, singer and philanthropist. Though this is not the first time her songs have been be subjected to criticisms, the mother of four, unlike actress Genevieve Nnaji, has been unperturbed. Interestingly, arguments on the social media have, however, shifted from a critical review of Omotola’s song, as fans of both actresses are now comparing their talents and celebrity status. Genevieve appears to have given up singing, after her first album, One Logologo Line, turned out a commercial failure. In the views of her fans, the star actress had taken a right decision. While commenting on Omotola’s latest single, a fan who faulted it for excessive auto tune and bad vocal, said, “I’m a huge fan of Omotola, but the song would have been better as instrumental (no vocals). Does she not have people around her to tell her she cannot sing and that she needs to stick to acting? Love you, Omosexy.” Another fan was quoted to have said that “All I can hear is auto tune! After all these years of vocal lessons… Stick to acting alone, love.” In the same vein, another fan said, “I love Omotola, but singing is not for everyone… If she was my mom, I would tell her NO! You can tell she can’t sing. So much auto tune; it is offbeat. And she is singing with her nose. I am crying of laughter as I am typing this. The song has a good message. Omowumi should have sung this, featuring MI. Even Genevieve’s I go kick you make you cry song was better than this (laughs).” However, some believe that the fault is not totally that of the actress, but the producer’s. “She (Omotola) should have gotten Cobhams to do the song for her. He is a terrific producer, especially for inspirational music or TY Bello’s Mosa ( Mosadoluwa Adegboye is the award-winning producer of TY Bello’s solo debut, Greenland). I don’t even live in Lagos and I know all these things,” said a fan. In the view of another fan, though the beat used for Omotola’s song was fantastic, he wished that the song was sold to someone else to do justice to it. “And to think this is the song being used by Amnesty International. So, this is the song that was inspired by activism? I can’t even talk anymore…This auto tune tie ti je ki ori mi daru die (Yoruba for ‘the auto tune is driving me crazy’). Let me go and eat and regain my sanity biko,” he said.

As someone that counsels people in church, I identify with the challenge women face here as I have had to encourage women to go for a scan when they tell me their health challenges. Living Funeral is a great movie as it xrays the scourge of breast cancer among women‘, Liz Benson says.
Orode who makes her debut as a producer, surprised everyone back in November, 2011 when she got married at the age of 22.

POLITIC: PDP Secures Court Order Against 5 Defected Governors

A Federal High yesterday directed the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to serve hearing notices on Governors Murtala Nyako (Adamawa), Chibuike Amaechi (Rivers), Aliyu Wamakko (Sokoto), Rabiu Kwankwaso (Kano) and Abdulfatai Ahmed (Kwara) by substituted means, in the suit challenging their defection to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Justice Gabriel Kolawole further ordered that the hearing notices should be pasted on the national secretariat of the APC in Abuja and should be published in two national dailies.

The order was granted by the court at the instance of the PDP, following the absence of the governors or their representatives in court yesterday.

Dr. Alex Izinyon (SAN), who appeared for the PDP with Damian Dodo (SAN), Omoruyi Omonuwa (SAN) and Dr. Fabian Ajogwu (SAN), had informed the court of the absence of the respondents in court, even after hearing notices had been served on them since December 16, 2013.

He, accordingly, applied that fresh hearing notices be issued and posted on the national secretariat of their party and the same be published in two national newspapers.

Justice Kolawole, who granted the application, adjourned the case to February 6 for hearing of the substantive suit.

In the suit, PDP wants the court to sack the five governors, who defected to the APC.

 

 

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) was listed as a defendant alongside the governors in the suit filed on behalf of the PDP by Izinyon.

PDP argued that the governors should be sacked from office on the grounds that, because of their defection, they had forfeited their offices, which, as a result, had reverted to the party.

In the event that the five governors are sacked from office, PDP wants the court to order the deputy governor or speaker of the state House of Assembly of each of the affected states, or any officer next in rank, who is still its member, to assume the office of governor.

PDP was also asking the court for several reliefs, among which was a declaration that by the combined provisions of sections 177 (c), 221 and 222 (c) of the 1999 Constitution, the five governors, who were elected on its platform, could not continue to enjoy the mandate given to it (PDP) by the people/electorate of the concerned states, as they (governors) had defected to another political party.

The court was also urged to make a declaration that in the absence of any division in the PDP, the five governors had vacated or forfeited their seats upon their defection to the APC.

Also, the court was asked to make a declaration that, by the combined provisions of sections 87 of the Electoral Act 2011 (as amended), and sections 177 (c), 221 and 222 (c) of the 1999 Constitution, the offices of the defected governors had reverted to the PDP.

In the same vein, the court was asked to make a declaration that, by the combined provisions of sections 177 (c), 221 and 222 (c) of the 1999 Constitution, upon the defection of the five governors, the mandate should be reverted to the deputy governors or speakers of the state Houses of Assembly of the respective states or any officer next in rank who is still a member of the PDP.

Amaechi, Chris Ngige Others Barred From Seeing El Rufai

The State Security Service on Monday detained a former Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Malam Nasir el-Rufai at its headquarters in Abuja.

The SSS operatives detained el-Rufai, who is the interim Deputy Publicity Secretary of the opposition All Progressives Congress, when he reported at their office at about 9.20am in respect of the invitation he received for making “an inciting statement.”

Rivers State Governor Rotimi Amaechi, accompanied by Senator Chris Ngige, drove el-Rufai to the SSS office.

Amaechi said he was mandated by the leadership of the APC to accompany the ex-minister. Other party chieftains, including the APC national secretary, Mr. Tijani Tumsah, who also accompanied el-Rufai, were barred from entering the SSS premises.

One of the ex-minister’s wives and his lawyer were also part of the entourage that went with him to the Maitama office of the secret police.

Amaechi spent about one hour inside the SSS premises before he left. Ngige, who spent about four hours, left the SSS premises around 3pm. An attempt to speak with him by journalists was aborted by SSS operatives who asked everyone to leave the area.

The SSS had invited el-Rufai to its office last Friday over a statement in which he said there would be violence during the 2015 elections.

But the former minister declined to honour the invitation, saying he had instituted a suit against  the service for detaining him during the governorship election in Anambra State. He asked the agency to either meet him in his office or produce a Warrant of Arrest.

El-Rufai, in an interview with journalists moments before he entered the SSS office on Monday, explained that he did not honour the invitation earlier as there was no warrant, adding that the SSS had no power to compel him to come to its office because of the statement he made.

He said, “The SSS has provided the Warrant of Arrest and shown it to my lawyer on Friday and I said to my lawyer that we will come here this morning (Monday).

“It is all about politics, it is all about 2015, this is just an attempt to intimidate and silence opposition for crying out that elections are likely to be rigged; I will continue to speak and they will continue to arrest me until we get free and fair election in Nigeria.”

He said that he had the right under the country’s constitution to make the statement for which he was invited.

“There is nothing I have said that history has not shown. I said elections should be free and fair; if they are not free and fair, there is likelihood of violence. This has happened in our history in 1964, 1983, 1993 and 2011, so what is strange about that. Anybody that doesn’t know that is either not reading history or just ignoring history,’’ the APC chieftain insisted.

El-Rufai, while inside the SSS office tweeted, “Inside SSS headquarters. They are now saying Governor Amaechi and Senator Ngige will not be allowed into the building after walking 500 metres….impunity.”

The ex-minister remained with the security operatives as of the time of this report on Monday night.

Ogun APC Crisis: Speaker, Others Maybe Pushed Out Of Power

Speaker of Ogun State House of Assembly,
Suraj Adekunbi and other members loyal to governor
Ibikunle Amosun may likely  be consumed in the feud
between Amosun and national leader of the All Progressives
Congress in the state, Chief Segun Osoba.
A reliable source revealed that shortly after the
National Executive Council, NEC, ratified  the harmonisation
in the party, the leadership has started shopping for more
loyal members of the party to replace most of the
lawmakers who were given tickets in 2011 by Osoba.
There has been simmering crisis in the APC in the state as
Osoba and Amosun were at loggerheads over the control of
the party machinery.
Adekunbi and 17 others who were selected by Osoba and
other party leaders won  the election under the platform of
defunct Action Congress of Nigeria, ACN, as members of the
state House of Assembly.
It was gathered that out  of the 17 defunct ACN members,
only two were originally from the Amosun group while 16
belonged to Osoba group, before some  of them were lured
over by the governor’s camp.
But in the lobby and scheming for who controls the
leadership and structure of the House of Assembly, it was
learnt that Amosun decimated the Osoba group and was
able to ‘buy’ over the six PDP and three PPN members.
Thus, the plan by the party to make   Suraju Adekumbi,
from Yewa North the Speaker scaled through, but, the party
failed in the choice of the deputy speaker slot as it’s
candidate Hon. Adijat Oladapo-Adeleye was dramatically
replaced by Amosun’s man .
A reliable source also revealed that,  the Osoba group has
vowed to replace all the members tagged disloyal including
the Speaker for pitching tent with Amosun during the crisis.
Sequel to the move to replace them , anxiety has gripped
some of the members as they may likely dump the governor
for Osoba to salvage their sinking ships.
