Operatives of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad, SARS, of the Nigeria Police Force have arrested a syndicate who specializes in the purchase and supply of AK-47 riffles to hoodlums in Taraba state.

The state Commissioner of Police, Alkasim Sanusi, paraded the suspects with eight other offenders, including suspected kidnappers, at the headquarters of the police command in Jalingo, the state capital, when he officially launched the Special Anti kidnapping squad of the state.

According to the Police boss, the special anti kidnapping squad will be reciprocated in the sixteen local government areas of Taraba in order to nip in the bud the incessant cases of kidnappings and other related crimes.

”The special anti kidnapping squad move in convoys and carry out both covert and overt operations. It is my intention to create this unit in each of the local government areas of Taraba state so that victims can report and police can take proactive measures to deal and stop any kidnapping operation that may occur.”

”It is the primary duty of the police to protect lives and property of Nigerians and in this command, we are battle-ready, no matter the price it might cost us, we will ensure that Taraba state inhabitants are protected at all cost”

Speaking on the Taraba state kidnapping and abduction prohibition amendment law 2019, that proscribes death penalty for offenders, the police commissioner reechoed the stand of the state government saying that if the kidnappers repent, and surrender their weapons, the state government is ready to grant them amnesty.

” I hope they will repent and there will be no more kidnapping in the state, my men and sister security agencies will clear this state of kidnapping and other heinous crime”

Narrating how the gun supplier and buyers were apprehended, CP Sanusi said the gun supplier usually crosses from Plateau to Taraba state, and we succeeded in arresting both of them.

“A team of SARS operatives intercepted and arrested the gun supplier who also revealed the identity of the buyer.

“Currently, the investigation is still on to gather more information from them, which will enable us to arrest others and mop up the arms in Taraba south, perhaps used to cause civil unrest in that region”

A kidnap syndicate headed by an old man was also among the suspects paraded.

CP Sanusi said that the old man uses young boys as foot soldiers to demand ransom from his victims, by buying sim cards and destroying the same after achieving his aims.

“They will call the victims to demand ransom if they don’t want to be kidnapped”

He disclosed that one of their victims who informed the police of their activities accepted to pay the ransom of which in the process, the young boy went to pick the ransom and was arrested by the police.

” The Young boy also disclosed the identity of their leader the old man over there”

While warning those shielding criminal elements in the state to desist from such if they don’t want to be given equal treatment as criminals, he also called on victims of kidnap and law abiding citizens of the state to give useful information to the Police for proper action.

Narrating how he got the AK 47 riffle, the suspect mister Nabun Gumali from Plateau state, disclosed that his father died and left the riffle for him.

” I have no money to farm and we are indebted by the hospital where he was treated before he died, hence I decided to contact a friend telling him that my father died and left a gun buried somewhere, I don’t know if you or your people will be interested in buying it”

” He came and checked the gun, and told me that there is a willing buyer at any given time, he inserted the weapon in his vehicle and on our way to wukari local government area through Ibi local government area of Taraba state we were arrested by SARS operatives”

” My father bought the gun because he is a herder and when he was alive, there were serious armed robbery activities going on in our place that was why he bought it”

”The buyer told me that he has 200 thousand naira and I accepted because of my quest to farm. Sincerely I have never done this before, this is my first time”

For the suspected Buyer of the AK 47 Riffle mister Stephen Mark, ”someone by name Modibbo from Barkin Ladi in Plateau state often contacts me to buy these rifles, so, I buy and resell to him”

”Modibbo only calls me when he wants to come and when he goes, he switches off his phone line”

Hafsat Muhammed, the mother of a 13-year-old girl(names withheld) abused and impregnated by an elderly tailor, is calling for justice.

Hafsat said the tailor, one Babayo, who raped and impregnated her daughter, a Junior Secondary School, JSS, student of Central Junior Secondary School, Angwan Bakin Kasuwa, Misau Local Government Area, Bauchi State, said they are too poor to do anything to him.

Speaking with Vanguard, Hafsat Muhammed said she and her family were molested by Babayo, who was unwilling to grant them audience when they went to confront him with the rape and eight-month pregnancy of their teenage daughter.

Her story:

“I am not happy about the situation. We went to confront Babayo with the allegations our daughter levelled against him. But he welcomed us with so much disgust and contempt, and that we are too poor and couldn’t do anything to him.

“I am grateful that people have taken up the case for us, because honestly I wouldn’t have known what to do. The pregnancy is telling on her. It is eight months now and we cannot even feed ourselves let alone prepare for the baby’s arrival.

“My daughter is facing the hardest part of her life because of someone’s wickedness.”

While asking for justice for her daughter, Hafsat begged for help from Bauchi State government and well-meaning people to help her with prayers and financial contributions to enable her take care of her daughter and the baby she’s expecting.

“I want justice for my daughter because the person who put us in this situation is walking free on our streets. I also want to ask for assistance from our people-loving governor and other well-meaning Nigerians to come to our aid with their prayers and financial contributions to enable us overcome this dilemma.”

‘He gave me N50 for biscuit’

The pale-looking pregnant teenager, who spoke with difficulty, commended Prison Inmates Development Initiative, PIDI, an NGO concerned with human rights issues, for its support.

Executive Director of PIDI, Mbami Iliya Sabka, disclosed that the pregnant minor hawked ‘pure water’. His words: “She sold pure water to support her poor parents after school hours.

The suspect always sent her on errands for his tailoring materials and whenever she returned, he would always give her a N50 tip.

“The victim told us, in December 2018 or thereabout, Babayo took her to an uncompleted building owned by his elder brother, locked the gate, forced her to take off her clothes and abused her sexually.

“He threatened her to not tell anyone, after which he gave her N50 to buy biscuit for herself.”

PIDI further told Vanguard that they have since sent a petition to the Commissioner of Police in Bauchi and the National Human Rights Commission to investigate the matter and bring the perpetrator to account for his deeds.

‘It wasn’t me’

Meanwhile, when Vanguard sought the suspect’s reaction, he said:

“I am not responsible for that pregnancy,”

after which he restricted his answers to mono-syllabic “Yes” and “No.” On contacting the Police to find out if they did receive a petition concerning the alleged rape, the Police Public Relations Officer, Kamal Datti, said:

“I will get back to you. I think the case is over a month old now.”

Several hours later, the Police was yet to respond even after being told that the report was urgent.

Vanguard gathered that the victim’s father, who is physically-challenged, depended on the enterprise of his wife and teenage daughter for survival.

Nigeria Claims Gender Equality Days After Buhari Gave Women 16 Percent Ministerial Slot

0
0

The federal government, through the Ministry of Women Affairs and Social Development, has reaffirmed its commitment to achieve gender equality in Nigeria.

This assurance came three days after President Muhammadu Buhari nominated only 7 women in his ministerial list which contained 43 names.

NAIJALOADED reports that the Buhari’s action has been condemned by over 150 Nigerian women groups, representing different regions, ethnicities, social and political allegiances and organizations for youths and persons with disabilities.

In a letter of protest to the Senate, the women expressed dismay and utter disappointment about the male dominated nominations.

It read in part:

“This list maintains and reinforces the historical exclusion of women in the country, ignores the youth and people living with disabilities and thus inhibits the critical goal of achieving meaningful, equitable and participatory national development.

“The list submitted by Mr. President reneges on the repeated campaign promises by his government and creates a crisis of confidence in the integrity of our elected political leadership.

But government insists it would continue to implement women-oriented policies, including the full declaration of the Beijing Platform for Action (BPFA).

Permanent Secretary in the ministry, Mrs Ifeoma Anagbogu made the commitment at the Beijing +25 Inter-Generational Dialogue on Thursday in Abuja.

The BPFA (Beijing Declaration) was adopted in 1995 with commitments to taking strategic and bold actions in 12 critical areas of concern.

The 12 critical areas include poverty, education and training, health, violence, armed conflict, economy, power and decision making.

Others are institutional mechanisms, human rights, media, environment and the girl child.

NAN quoted Anagbogu as saying that BPFA

“affirms that equality between women and men is a matter of human rights and condition for social justice.”

“It is also a necessary and fundmental prerequisite for equality, development and sustainable peace.

“The BPFA remains the most visionary agenda for the empowerment of women and girls; it set out on how to remove systematic barriers that hold women back from equality in both private and public spheres,”

She said.

She stated that there had been tremendous progress toward achieving gender equality and the realisation of the rights of women and girls.

Anagbogu said some of the achievements include institutional arrangements, participation of women in public and political life.

Others integration of gender and social inclusion targets in economic policies, budgets and development frameworks, initiatives to partner with men and boys in promoting gender equality and the empowerment of women.

The official, however, listed challenges affecting the realisation of BPFA in Nigeria as gender stereotypes, social norms, cultural barriers and insufficient up-to-date gender disaggregated data.

Others are finding limitations, insecurity and non implementation and passage of some laws and policies, among others.

Why I Deliberately Disobey Court Order – Ministerial Nominee, Malami

0
0

The immediate past Attorney-General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami (SAN), has said, he deliberately disobeys some court orders in the interest of the public, according to a report by Punch.

Malami said this while responding to a question by the Senate Minority Leader, Eyinnaya Abaribe, at the ongoing ministerial screening.

The senior advocate was asked why he decides to disobey court orders by refusing to release persons who have been granted bail by competent courts of jurisdiction.

In his reaction, however, Malami said his duty to protect the overall rights of Nigerians overrides the need to respect individual liberties.

The former AGF said indeed Sections 36, 37 and 39 demand the respect for individual liberty but argued that such rights are not absolute.

He subsequently cited a Supreme Court ruling on the Federal Republic of Nigeria VS Asari Dokubo.

“I concede that I have a responsibility as AGF to protect individual rights but looking at the provisions of Section 174 of the constitution, I want to state further that the Office of the AGF is meant to protect public interest and where the individual interests conflicts with the public interest of 180 million Nigerians that are interested in having this country integrated must naturally prevail and I think that position has been stated by the apex court in the case of Asari Dokubo Vs Federal Republic of Nigeria that when an individual interest conflicts with public interest, the public interest will naturally prevail.”

Malami’s response, however, did not go down well with a section of the Senate that insisted that the constitution remains supreme.

In Malami’s defence, however, Senator Bala Ibn Na’Allah, who also hails from Malami’s home state of Kebbi, said the former AGF had answered the questions brilliantly and asked that he allowed to “take a bow”.

Na’Allah argued that other former ministers of President Muhammadu Buhari had not been grilled for up to an hour before and yet Malami was being treated unfairly.

The Senate President, who agreed with Na’Allah, said Malami had answered the questions brilliantly and should be asked to go.

He subsequently asked the former AGF to take a bow after putting the question to a voice vote.

The AGF has come under serious rebuke by several rights groups both locally and internationally for his failure to obey court orders.

The leader of the Islamic Movement of Nigeria, Sheikh Ibraheem El-Zakzaky; as well as a former National Security Adviser, Col. Sambo Dasuki (retd.), are some of the persons who have remained in custody for over three years despite being granted bail by courts.

Incidentally, Malami’s position corresponds with that of President Muhammadu Buhari who said at the Nigerian Bar Association conference last year that rule of law can be suspended for the sake of national security.

I’m Hopeful My Daughter Is Alive – Leah Sharibu’s Mother

Mrs. Rebbeca Sharibu, mother of the abducted Dapchi secondary schoolgirl Leah Sharibu, is still hopeful about her daughter’s return alive.

Reacting to a video released by Boko Haram where an abducted aid worker, Grace, called on the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN ) and Action Against Hunger, an International Non-Governmental Organisation working in Borno State, to rescue her before she is “killed like other abductees like Alice and Leah Sharibu”.

According to Mrs. Sharibu, “no matter how long it takes, my hope is still alive that my daughter will come back alive from Boko Haram. I still look forward to that day and I am confident that she will return”.

Mrs. Sharibu revealed that she had not even seen the video in circulation.

She reiterated her call to President Muhammadu Buhari to do everything to rescue her daughter, just as she also appealed to the people holding her daughter in captive to release her unconditionally.

Her words: “I am bothered by the recent silence about my daughter’s case, but I still want to cry to the President. I want our President Buhari to know that my eyes are still wet with tears over my daughter’s abduction. I will continue to cry to him, until my daughter returns to me.

“I also want to still appeal to the people that are holding my daughter to please have mercy on her and release her without any condition. She does not know anything. What has she done to deserve what she is going through?”

Our correspondent, who monitored the video reported that Grace, the only woman in a group of six captives, appeared in a video that was allegedly released by Boko Haram where she called on the authorities to save them from their abductors who she referred to as the “Army of Khalifa”.

The address of Grace in the video as monitored by our reporter reads: “My name is Grace, I work with Action Against Hunger, an NGO in Borno state. My base is in Borno State. We went to work on Thursdays on the 18/7/2019 out of Damasak. On our way going back to Damasak by kinari, Chmbawa ward in Damasak, we were caught by these army called the Khalifas. They brought us here. But actually, we don’t know where we are but this minute, I want to beg on CAN, Christian Association of Nigeria because I am the only Christian among the six of us here. I want to beg that CAN should please do something about me to see how I can be released.

“I also want to beg the Action Against Hunger, Borno State. We are six here, all of us are staff, we went to work and we were caught on our way back from work. I beg ACF, we have families, and some of us have children. I am begging ACF that they should please do something that they will release us.

“I also want to count on Nigerians – our nation, we are Nigerians and we are also working for Nigerian. I beg that Nigerian Government should please. I am begging again please do something to see that we are released. Because this has occurred before in Red Cross where some ladies, Hauwa and Deborah were caught.

“They also asked to be released but because Nigeria did not do anything about it, they were killed. I am begging on behalf of all of us here that Nigerian should not allow such a thing to happen to us.

”It also happened again with Leah and Alice and because Nigeria could not do anything about them, they were not released. They were killed. I beg that Nigeria and our Organisation Action Against Hunger should do something and see that we are released.”

The River Of Death: How 9 Girls Perished While Being Ferried Across Galma River In Kaduna

0

Galma River Valley, Wucciciri village in Zaria Local Government Area of Kaduna State, is now a dark spot.

This is the aftermath of tragic and mysterious deaths of nine girls. They lost their lives on July 15, 2019, while being ferried across the river.

Their deaths brought back memories of different sad stories about the river and the suspicion about the river. A fisherman, Mallam Bala Salihu, familiar with the tales of the river, told Daily Sun that the river has become a path of death for innocent passengers, especially women and young girls, many of whom had met their untimely deaths crossing the river:

“Many girls have lost their lives while trying to cross this river to the other side, anytime from 6:00pm. That is why we always advise them not to crossover without any man inside the canoe. I was born and brought up here, but honestly, I don’t trust this river. I remember my parents used to tell me not to go close to the river at night.

“That is why I make efforts to keep away from the river at night. In fact, I do my fishing activity in the morning, sometimes up to afternoon, but not in the night.”

A farmer in the village, Alhaji Ibrahim Suleiman, however insisted: “There is really nothing wrong with the river. Some people had over time developed a superstition around the river, suggesting that there were spirits in the river.”

He argued that fuelled by this unfounded belief, some people, hiding in the curtains of the night, perform various forms of rituals on the banks of the river:

“All these created a fitting impression of evil about the village river.

“Yes, there were lost of lives in the past, but certainly not through a canoe mishap. I remember that some girls died last two years and another set of women was drowned a few months after. This is the only time they were dealing with a canoe mishap or accident.”

Fatima Idris is one of the village girls who survived the accident. She still cannot afford to erase the sad memory of the fateful day when she thought her world had ended:

“It was on Friday, July 15, 2019, around 6 pm, while we were returning from a village called Hayin Sarkin Fito. It was a rainy night, with dark heavy storms. But we were determined to get home. The 16 of us decided to board a canoe to the other side of the river.

“At first, we paddled steadily. Then suddenly, as we were in the middle of the river, the canoe began to shake and sink. It was clear that we were going down and we were all afraid.

“And as there was nothing to starve off the impending tragedy, seven of us jumped out and swam with all our strength. The nine, who remained in the canoe died. We screamed for help, but nobody was near or could hear our shrilling cries. Because of the rain and the thick darkness that enveloped that night.

“But God was wonderful, extremely wonderful. Somehow, we were ferried by then same water to safety and we found ourselves out of danger.” She said although the level of rain was not enough to cause the mishap, it was surprising that they sank the way they did: “The operators of the canoe themselves were experts having done the same thing for years.”

The Village Head of Tudun Iya, Alhaji Muhammadu Musa, recalled that the incident was a big tragedy in the community as six of their daughters, who were on the verge of getting married, were killed in the mishap. He said they retrieved five bodies, and the following day, three additional bodies were recovered at Kaku village.

The last of the deceased girls was recovered at Garu Rubuchi, some five kilometres away from the spot of the incident. The deceased were immediately buried according to Islamic rites. He advised canoe operators to always put safety consideration first and avoid the unwholesome culture of overloading their canoes with passengers simply for monetary gains.

Chairman, Zaria Local Government, Aliyu Idris, expressed sympathies to the families of the bereaved and prayed Allah to grant them the fortitude to bear the losses. He assured the survivors that the council would endeavour to assist them.

In his condolence visit, member representing Zaria City Constituency, Alhaji Suleiman Wakili, donated two brand new canoes to the community to ease the difficulties they face traveling across the river.

Chelsea are looking to hijack Arsenal’s move for Wilfried Zaha, while Everton are still in the mix, reports The UK Telegraph.

The Blues are under a two-window transfer ban, but would look to complete a deal for the Crystal Palace winger, after the end of the coming season.

The 27-year-old is said to be aware of their interest in him, although they have yet to make a concrete offer to the Eagles.

Arsenal have already tabled a bid worth £40 million for the player.

The offer was quickly rejected by Palace, who are looking to hold out for £80m.

As he is Unai Emery’s top target this summer, the Gunners are expected to return with an improved bid in the coming days.

Nigeria Loses $14Bn Annually To Farmers-Herder’s Clashes – Fayemi

0
0

Governor Kayode Fayemi of Ekiti State, yesterday, lamented that Nigeria loses $14 billion annually to farmer-herder clashes, saying it may affect the country’s ability to guarantee food security for the people.

He said:

“Nigeria loses $14 billion annually to farmer-herder clashes, a development that may also have devastating effects on the country’s ability to guarantee food security for the people.”

He also hinted that the rate at which farmer-herders conflicts worsen in recent times requires a decisive action by the government to unpack what has become a major threat to peaceful co-existence and food security in the country.

Fayemi said this at the National Institute for Security Studies, NISS, Executive Management Course in Abuja, while delivering a paper titled Farmer-Herder Conflicts in Nigeria: Implications for National Security.

The governor said:

“As political and policymakers, we must be humble enough to admit that the messaging around the farmer-herder crisis, in terms of being mindful of sensitivities and the use of polarizing terminologies and concepts leaves room for improvement.

“From the evolution of the discourse on major issues such as the anti-grazing laws which have been passed into law in Ekiti, Benue and Taraba states, to colonies, the Ruga settlement phenomenon, the ranching options, we have not done enough to properly manage the various narratives or interpretations that emerged from this problem.

“Had government at all levels accorded due priority to the right messaging and perceptions in these sensitive issues, the often useful ideas proposed to resolve the problems would not have been subjected to blatant misinterpretation and politicization.”

While emphasizing that the farmer-herder conflict has become a threat to sub-regional and continental peace and stability, Fayemi, said a similar problem is prevalent in some West African countries, leading to the adoption of a Regional Transhumance Policy as far back as 1998.

He also cautioned against demonizing one ethnic group by the others, saying that such could lead to socio-cultural implications, including increasing distrust among the ethnic groups.

Fayemi said:

“Transhumance across our national borders is an inevitable occurrence and has been in place even before the adoption of the 1978 ECOWAS Protocol on Free Movement of Persons and Goods.”

From winning the BET awards for Best International Act and featuring in Beyonce’s Lion King Album, Burna Boy says Nigerians love him now because the rest of the world does.

Talking about his album which will be released tomorrow and his music in an interview with Billboard, the Rivers State born singer said his plan is to take his music worldwide and also play in a stadium in China.

But first, he’ll embark on a 17-date global tour of 1,000- to 3,000-capacity venues starting Aug. 9 in Toronto.

“This has always been my vision, “Not like I planned it, just that I knew I should stick to doing what I’m doing. It’s almost like climbing steps — you keep going up.”

Also speaking on his local growth, Burna Boy stated that Nigerians only acknowledge him now because the rest of the world does.

“Nigerians love me a lot more now because they can see that the whole world likes me, too. They think I’m something special, but I’m not. I’m just a human whose skill is making music. Way I see it, everyone plays their own role in the world, and no role is more important than the other.”

On becoming one of the richest Nigerian artists, he said,

“You are only as rich as where you come from, and Nigeria has a lot of poverty.”

Author and former aide to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, Reno Omokri has taken to his Twitter page to advise men.

According to him, men should steer clear women who only show off their curves on social media as marrying such women would have them eventually curved by the same women.

He however disclosed the kind of girl that is suitable for marriage.

He wrote:-

“Dear men,

Don’t marry girls that only show off their CURVES. Such girls may eventually CURVE you. Marry a girl who shows off her God. Such girls add value and CURVE you into God’s Favour. Don’t be deceived by the wrong CURVE. Look before you CURVE ”

Daddy Freeze Reacts To Claim Of Tope Alabi Not Making Heaven Because Of What She Wears

0

Daddy Freeze has reacted to Evangelist Victor Edet’s claim of gospel singer, Tope Alabi missing heaven because she wears ‘weavons, attachments, artificial nails, makeup, earrings’.

The media personality in his counter-statement to the claim, stated that when people listen to untaught preachers, they end up with a warped understanding of Christ.

Revealing that Christianity has no dress code, Daddy Freeze however added that ‘Churchism & bornagainism’ two false, pagan religions, based on the ideas of men, do.

He wrote;

This one is an intellectual midget with a blattodean brain, exhibiting a paucity of scriptural understanding and suffering from spiritual discohesion. ?

When you listen to untaught preachers, you can only end up with a warped understanding of Christ.

Christianity has NO dress code but ‘Churchism’ & ‘bornagainism’ two false, pagan religions, based on the ideas of men, do.

The scriptures say:
? 1 Peter 3:3 ?
NIV
Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry or fine clothes.

This in no way implies that these things are bad, it just says they shouldn’t define your beauty.

Another scripture quoted out of context is:

? 1 Timothy 2:9 ?
NLT
And I want women to be modest in their appearance. They should wear decent, appropriate clothing and not draw attention to themselves by the way they fix their hair or by wearing gold or pearls or expensive clothes.

Women should be descent, but who or what defines decency, has always been a dilemma.
If you wear a nice decent wig or weave, that wont attract attention, but if you wear a hip long multicolored wig or weave that definitely will draw attention, Also, mild, well applied, modest make up won’t draw attention to you, but painting your face in uncomplimentary colors or making up like a drag queen would.

About expensive clothes, Christ didn’t wear rich clothes himself and this can clearly be found in his description of John the Baptist in:
? Luke 7:25 ?
NLT
Or were you expecting to see a man dressed in expensive clothes? No, people who wear beautiful clothes and live in luxury are found in palaces.

If Christ wore expensive clothes then this would perhaps read: “we that wear” instead of “people who”. Christ however didn’t have a problem with people dressed in expensive clothes.

Let’s remember that Christ did not tell his disciples to go out and start religions, but as humans they soon unwittingly found themselves teaching their followers religion.

1st Timothy offers practical and pastoral advice from the aging Paul to young pastor Timothy in the church at Ephesus. If not taken with caution, is the beginning of an unchristlike religion. ~FRZ

Imo Govt Uncovers Warehouse Okorocha’s Family Allegedly Kept Looted Properties [Photos]

The Jasper Ndubuaku-led Imo State Committee on the Recovery of Moveable Assets belonging to the State Government, have made a breakthrough on their job.

Acting on a tip off, the team discovered a massive warehouse Friday afternoon.

The facility, located along Aba Road, is alleged to be belonging to Nkechi, wife of former Governor, Rochas Okorocha.

Okorocha is now the senator representing Imo West Senatorial district.

NAIJALOADED gathered that it took spirited intervention to stop the youths from setting the entire warehouse ablaze.

The discovery of the warehouse follows the sealing off of an estate also allegedly owned by Nkechi.

The property is located in the Akachi area of Owerri, the state capital.

The blocks of flat and bungalow were allegedly built with state funds and proceeds of corruption.

NAIJALOADED recalls that EFCC, had on Wednesday confirmed the seizure of assets and properties link to Okorocha, his wife, daughter as well as associates including son-in-law, Uche Nwosu, who served as his Chief of Staff.

A statement by its spokesman, Tony Orilade said

“The marking of the properties which is a fall-out of our painstaking investigation, is as a result of the failure of the suspects to honour the Commission’s invitation for questioning on the propriety of their acquisition”.

Beware Of The ‘Kponmo’ You Buy – NAFDAC Warns

0
0

The Management of the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) has alerted the public, especially consumers of animal hides, popularly known as ‘Ponmo’ in local parlance on the activities of some unscrupulous business men and traders who are selling industrial animal hides as food article.

A statement issued by NAFDAC’s Director General, Professor Moji Christianah Adeyeye, said as far back as 2015, following intelligence reports, the Agency, through Investigation and Enforcement Directorate, had been successfully dealing with isolated cases of dangerous diversion of animal hides meant for industrial use into the food chain for consumption as local delicacy, Ponmo, saying this practice posed grave danger to public health.

“Investigations revealed that some of the companies legally imported hides from countries such as Lebanon and Turkey, while majority of the product was smuggled into the country through the porous borders.

“These imported animal hides are meant for industrial use by leather industries for the manufacture of items such as shoes, bag, belt etc.

“The hides, therefore,are pre-treated with industrial chemicals which are not of food grade and will be toxic and injurious to human health.

“Health hazards inherent in the consumption of such animal hides include risk of Liver, Kidney and Heart damage, increased risk of Aplastic anaemia, Central nervous system toxicity, Cancer, etc.

“Live stock farmers are also to note that industrial animal hides can also not be used to manufacture animal feed, as the associated chemicals will be stored in the tissues of these animals and will eventually end up in humans when consumed with the attendant deleterious effects listed above,”

She said.

According to Adeyeye,

“The general public is hereby encouraged to be very vigilant and exercise discretion when purchasing animal hides ponmo and indeed other food items. NAFDAC is fully alive to her responsibilities of assuring the safety, wholesomeness and quality of processed foods offered for sale to the public.

“In this regard, the Agency, has increased the tempo of targeted and aggressive routine (unannounced) inspections to monitor activities of animal hide merchants to ensure that only food grade animal hide (PONMO) is sold as food article in our markets.”

OMG! Man United Star Returns From Pre-Season In Wheelchair

Manchester United defender, Eric Bailly, was pictured in a wheelchair at Manchester Airport on Friday, as the team arrived back to the UK from a pre-season tour.

Bailly picked up an injury in their 2-1 win over Premier League rivals, Tottenham Hotspur, in Shanghai earlier in the week.

The Ivorian was carried off the field on a stretcher and left the stadium on crutches with a knee brace.

“It seems that he’s twisted his knee so we just have to do some scans and checks on him,” Solskjaer said after the game.

It is yet another setback for Bailly who has, since moving to Old Trafford in 2016, missed 34 games through three separate injuries.

His injury could also alter United’s transfer plans and push them to move for Harry Maguire although, according to SportsMail, a move for the Leicester City man seems to have hit an impasse.

Philippe Coutinho has been made available for transfer on a fee of €120million, Mundo Deportivo reports.

If the Brazilian goes for that price, it would represent a loss of €15m for the Catalans.

Coutinho is one of several players, including Ousmane Dembele, who could leave Barca so that the club can fund the return of Neymar.

And despite having paid €120m plus €15m in add-ons to date for Coutinho since his arrival from Liverpool last year, Barcelona are ready to sell for less.

The player has struggled to settle in Catalonia and admitted recently that his future lies away from the club.

But a return to Liverpool has been ruled out while the player himself will not join Chelsea or Manchester United.

The police have arrested five persons in connection with the shooting and killing of an Okada rider in Ikere Ekiti on Thursday evening.

The Okada man was allegedly hit by bullets during a traditional dancing conducted by the wife of Ogoga of Ikere and the Paramount ruler of the town, Oba Adejimi Adu in preparation for Odun Oba festival slated for today (Saturday).

According to a police source, the traditional dancing procession was conducted amid shooting, which allegedly led to the stray bullets that hit two motorcyclists and one of them died immediately.

The Police Public Relations Officer, Ekiti Command, DSP Caleb Ikechukwu confirmed the arrest of the suspects.

“When killing like that happened, once we knew where the shooting allegedly emanated, it is normal for us to make arrest, so it is true.

“The offence becomes more severe when you carried prohibited firearms, as it was in this case. The arrest should be expected”.

When the incident, which caused commotion in the town occurred, people thought it was a fight between Ogoga’s supporters and his rival, the Olukere of Ikere, Oba Ganiyu Obasoyin.

But speaking on Friday, Oba Obasoyin denied his involvement in the crisis, saying he and his supporters were never involved in the incident.

The monarch added that he had already spoken to his people to be calm in spite of the highly provocative shooting in the town on Thursday.

“The whole town knew where to he shooting emanated from, we are not involved at all. Some people were dancing round the town and shooting when they shot the dead and the injured man.

“We are doing our best as leaders to ward off crisis. We were engaging our people on the need to embrace peace but some people are jittery.

“The issue has nothing to do with Olukere and Ogoga. We are happy that the killers have been arrested.

“I appeal to the police to do their job. They should do a just job. They shouldn’t allow the matter to be swept under the carpet”.

A member of the Okada riders’ association in the town, Mr. Jide Amos, who was an eyewitness established that the man was killed by stray bullets from the dancers.
