HUSHPUPPI AND MISERIES OF OTHERS

HUSHPUPPI AND MISERIES OF OTHERS

I spent about 8 years of my roughly 15 years in the banking sector as team lead of e-banking dispute resolution team and deputy head of E-banking Operations. In that role you get to see a lot of things that banking code of ethics won't allow me to divulge even now - the good, the bad and the disheartening. You see how e-fraud traps ensnare both innocent and greedy folks, alike. And it was one of my roles to help the bank's investigation department to unravel them.

But it was only one incidence of e-fraud that made me cry. The victim was an elderly man who just retired from service, after 35 years or so. His total gratuity was some N600,000.00 in 2009 or 2010 monies.

This fresh pensioner, despite repeated education by all financial institutions not to divulge personal account information, clearly compromised his account details and was hit hard, by online fraudsters like HUSHPUPPI. Between 11.55pm and 12.05am, on this sad day, the whole dividend of 35 years was gone!

By the morning, a call from both the branch and the customer service managers of the man's branch was transferred to me. Case was reported, and I requested to speak with the old man...

I asked him many questions, and it was obvious he compromised his details after falling prey to certain schemes. The man didn't cry, but in trembling and stuttering voice he kept asking me just one question: "se gbogbo e ti tan ni yen"? Is everything truly gone? Is it all finished...?

Tears rolled down my cheeks, as I affirmed the sad reality. I transferred the case to the bank's investigation unit which triggered hitech investigation in conjunction with police's FIU...

So, if you are a fan or defender of HUSHPUPPI and his associates, this is just an example of the misery their "profession" wrought on innocent lives.

But then, let us all know that NATURE is a very strict accountant. On a day of reckoning, it balances scores, reconciles accounts and correct misgivings without mercy.

Oshiomhole’s Posters, Pictures Removed From APC National Secretariat

Oshiomhole’s Posters, Pictures Removed From APC National Secretariat

Following the dissolution of the National Working Committee, NWC of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, all posters and pictures of suspended national chairman, Adams Oshiomhole, have been removed from the party’s national secretariat.

POLITICS NIGERIA learned that this occurred barely 24 hours after the NWC was disbanded. Oshiomole’s pictures have been removed from two giant billboards mounted at the entrance gate and inside the party’s headquarters in Abuja, leaving only President Muhammadu Buhari’s poster.

It was gathered that shortly after the announcement of the NWC’s dissolution, staff at the secretariat jubilated and began to tear down/remove the Edo politician’s portraits from the reception and all the offices.

Oshiomole’s troubles originated from his rift with Edo state governor, Godwin Obaseki. Both men have been at loggerheads for a while but the animosity between them heightened after the former influenced the disqualification of the latter from the party guber primaries. This led to Obaseki’s defection to PDP, a development that did not go down well with a large section of the party.

Shortly after, the court of appeal upheld Oshiomhole’s suspension and the party, in an extraordinary National executive committee meeting on Thursday dissolved the Oshiomole-led National Working Committee, NWC.

How Ajimobi Was Defrauded of N50m After Dispatching Private Jet To Fetch Fake Drugs From Bangladesh

How Ajimobi Was Defrauded of N50m After Dispatching Private Jet To Fetch Fake Drugs From Bangladesh
   
The last days of former Oyo State governor, Abiola Ajimobi, who died  at First Cardiology Hospital in Lagos following Coronavirus complications, were devoid of peace as he was defrauded of N50m right on his sickbed.

Ajimobi was rushed to the hospital  after his health deteriorated significantly and soon slipped into a deep coma he never recovered from until he passed away.

In the period doctors were battling to save his life at the Lagos hospital, family members desperate to keep him alive reached out to a handful of Nigerians they knew abroad to help get a sizeable quantity of Remivir to be administered on him.

Manufactured in Bangladesh, the antiviral drug was previously tested in humans with Ebola virus disease and has shown promise in treating severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) caused by Coronavirus, according to United States National Institutes of Health. 

First, the assignment for the search for the drug was given to a Nigerian in Texas, United States, to see if he could help get it.

After days of contacting several trusted persons for the 'project', he gave up the search as the tight monitoring of the drug by the US government made it almost impossible for it to be moved out of hospitals.

The $50,000 paid was returned after another search for the drug in a hospital in Los Angeles, California, did not also materialise.

The hospitals contacted had only limited dose of the drugs, which is closely monitored by the US authorities desperate to stop the rising number of deaths related to Coronavirus. 

After failing to get the drug in the US, members of Ajimobi circle turned attention to Bangladesh were it is being produced. 

A Nigerian assured them of getting the needed quantity of Remivir to administer on the ex-Oyo governor and help save his life. 

Subsequently, a jet and N50m was dispatched to the Asian country for the purchase and delivery but sadly the drugs procured by the Nigerian man was all fake.

He pocketed large chunk of the money and left the former governor to battle for his life at the Lagos hospital where for at least one week he was on a life support machine before he eventually died. 

"All our guys here in the United States couldn't risk it because of the war act invoked by President Donald Trump that the drug should not get out of America.

"It is something I was involved in from the beginning. In fact, we gave $50,000 to one of our Nigerian guy who is a doctor in Los Angeles but he returned the money. He said the hospital had only 100 dose and everything was monitored on how it is used.

"But one Nigerian guy defrauded them after claiming he could get it in Bangladesh.

"They sent a flight and paid about N50m but the drug they got from him was fake," one of those privy to the search for the drugs disclosed.

Photos of couple involved in murder-suicide incident in Lagos + graphic photos from murder scene. Viewers discretion is strongly advised

Nigerian man stabs his wife to death and then commits suicide in their home in Lekki
 
A Nigerian man simply identified as Femi, stabbed his wife to death, and thereafter committed suicide in their home in Victory Park estate in Lagos state on Sunday, June 21.

According to residents of the estate, the couple moved into the estate three weeks ago with their two young children. Not much was known about the couple but just a day before the murder-suicide, they were spotted jogging together on Saturday night June 20. 

However, on Sunday, the man who is said to have always questioned the paternity of their second child, stabbed his wife to death, and then took his own life.

A neighbor who spoke on condition of anonymity to LIB, said 
On Sunday afternoon, neighbors close to the couple's apartment heard loud music emanating from their home and this lasted for many hours. 

The neighbors went to the estate office to complain about the loud music and insisted the estate officials go there and caution the couple.

The estate authorities went to the couple's compound to appeal to them to turn down the volume of the music coming from their apartment.

They however met with the wife's sister who was downstairs with the couple's children. The sister immediately went upstairs so she can inform her sister and the husband about the complaint laid by the estate authorities. She knocked several times but got no response.

After waiting for so long, the sister and the estate officials decided to pull the door down. They were greeted by a horrific sight.

Apparently, the man had killed his wife. It is believed it was pre-meditated because when they got into the room, they saw different kinds of knives there. The woman's legs and hands were bound and her mouth shut with a cellotape. The husband used a clipper to shave her hair, stabbed her head, her eyes, stabbed her multiple times with different knives. 

The scene was nothing short of a horror movie.

After stabbing his wife to death, the man committed suicide by drinking sniper''
 
Spokesperson of the state police command, Bala Elkana who confirmed the incident to LIB, said

It is true. Homicide detectives have sealed up the place. They have commenced investigation. The corpse of the man and the woman have been moved to the hospital for an autopsy. 

Two kitchen knives were found there and two bottles of Sniper. The woman had injuries from stabbing while foams were coming out of the man's mouth who is suspected to have taken those Snipers.

WHAT TO DO WHEN YOU HAVE A TYRE BLOWOUT

WHAT TO DO WHEN YOU HAVE A TYRE BLOWOUT 

In the event of the unfortunate death of Nigeria's minister of state for labour due to an accident occasioned by a tyre blowout and the fact that in Nigeria now-a-days, we have many untrained drivers, it has become pertinent for me to write this.

There are 6 simple steps to take within a maximum of 2 minutes and you will be safe, these by the grace of God I have been familiar with for decades. They are as follow:

(1) DON'T PANIC in the event of a blowout, calm yourself down fast because your car will start misbehaving and you need to take charge.   

(2) Hold FIRMLY to your steering wheel with both hand, NO VIGOROUS TURNING, as you concentrate on the road and your mirrors, in seconds study the movement pattern of the car. Your car will naturally swerve to the direction of the burst tyre. 

(3) Gradually take off your foot from the accelerator, DON'T EVER ATTEMPT TO PRESS THE BRAKES, IF YOU DO, YOU HAVE A 95% CHANCE OF A SOMERSAULT. The car will decelerate gradually while you concentrate on the road to avoid collision with any other road user. 

(4) Disengage the gears of the car by shifting to neutral (N) as you still maintain a firm grip on the steering wheel and put your eyes on the road.

(5) After a while depending on your initial speed, your car comes to a speed less than 60km/h when it is now safe to GRADUALLY apply the brakes and navigate to the side walk 

(6) Ultimately, it is now safe to put the car to a complete stop and turn off the engine. You have just saved yourself and passengers from untimely death.

NOTE:
Of course, everyone in the car will be in a panic mode BUT this is NOT THE TIME TO LISTEN TO THEM, it is TIME TO CONCENTRATE.

Please, don't just read share on your page and copy to other platforms, you may just be about to save a life.
I pray thàt God will continue to keep us safe as we use the roads, amen.

BREAKING NEWS OYO STATE GOVERNOR COMMISSIONS CITY WATCH FACILITIES

BREAKING NEWS OYO STATE GOVERNOR COMMISSIONS CITY WATCH FACILITIES This evening, we recommissioned the expanded Security Control Room and City Watch facilities at the Oyo State Security Trust Fund Headquarters, Onireke, Jericho, Ibadan. I reiterated our administration's commitment to making Oyo State safe and secure for all within its borders.

For those familiar with my statements during my campaign trail, you will recall that I was going to scrap this entire architecture because the it was like a white elephant project. But I was convinced to give it another shot and today we have been rewarded with a functional centre.

The entire system has been reconfigured so that we no longer need to pay internet access fees of N3.5million/month. Also, we have acquired the license for the software for life so no longer need to run the trial version we met. This facility now wholly belongs to Oyo State.

We have also expanded the facilities so that the security operatives, including the police and civil defence, can work from there. At the moment, the cameras in eight locations are working. These include the Lagos-Ibadan Express Road and the Asejire axis. With this system, we can easily monitor human and vehicular traffic and even capture number plates of vehicles.

Also, a crime alert platform has been built into the Oyo State website. Everyone can log into the website, free of charge, and once they complete the process, with just a press of the button they can alert operatives of robbery, kidnapping or any other crime and their location and visuals will show up on the system.

Additionally, we have set up a Governor’s Monitoring Unit and a Crime Alert Unit. Vehicles are also positioned at the Security Trust Fund Headquarters so that the operatives can respond in real time to any crime reports.

ANAMBRA GOVT BARS JOURNALISTS FROM VISITING AIRPORT PROJECT SITE

ANAMBRA GOVT BARS JOURNALISTS FROM VISITING AIRPORT PROJECT SITE

By Joe Chukindi

Anambra State government on Tuesday barred journalists from visiting the site of the proposed cargo airport project in Umueri, Anambra East Local Government Area.

The journalists who were on an independent investigation to find out the level of work at the site were stopped by youths who insisted that they had the order of the state commissioner for works, Marcel Efejiofor not to let journalists into the site.

The state governor, Willie Obiano had flagged off the $2.2billion Umueri Cargo Airport project in April 2017, with a promise to complete the project in 18 months. He had added that the project was being undertaken by a Chinese Company, Sinoking International on a Build, Operate and Transfer agreement, with the state donating land as its only contribution to the project.

The project remained undone, while its delay in taking off was blamed on the seizure of a drone meant for aerial surveillance by the federal government.

Obiano, however, budgeted N6 billion for the project in the 2020 budget, saying that the state would recover its N6billion once the Chinese company returns to the site. He also promised to finish the project in 18 months.

Eight months to the 18months deadline, it is not certain how much work has been achieved.

Attempt to visit the project was vehemently rejected by the Commissioner for works who instead opted to speak to DAILY POST in his office in Awka, even though he was at the site.

“I don’t know what you want to be told about the project. Go and quote me, just say work has not started. I am not ready to talk further on the project, so you can say that I said no comment.

“If you have other things to know about the state of roads in Anambra, I will be ready to speak to you, but I am not willing to talk about the airport,” he said.

JUNE 12 LESSON TWO....

JUNE 12 LESSON TWO....

The 1993 SDP Jos Convention Presidential Primary was keenly contested between Abiola and Kingibe. Most SDP Governors wanted Kingibe, the immediate past Chairman of the party who helped most of them to become Governors, it was time to pay him back. Abiola faced a serious battle with the Governors who were in charge of their state delegates...... Another rival was the embittered Shehu Musa Yar'adua who was disqualified from running by IBB Government. Yar'adua sponsored Atiku whose role was like that of a spoiler but very strategic. He was used by Yar'adua, ultimately, to create a relevance for himself. To secure Yar'adua support, Abiola had conceded party Chairman position to Yar'adua group, a decision Lamidi Adedibu warned Abiola against. He said "Conceding party structure to your rival is like bidding your career farewell...".... Abiola a Businessman believed Adedibu was exaggerating... "how can we take all? We must share with everyone".... Adedibu told MKO he was going to regret it.

In Jos, it was tough. A stalemate between Abiola and Kingibe.... Abiola's lead wasn't enough, Kingibe needed Yar'adua support to finish MKO.... But smart Yar'adua knew Kingibe was as politically wise as he was, he chose to stay with his business partner MKO who he could easily trick..... Because really, Yar'adua still wanted to be President. Yar'adua made Atiku withdraw for MKO and the back of Kingibe was broken!

Not more than 5 minutes after his defeat, in order to outsmart Yar'adua, Kingibe quickly went straight to Abiola's Tent in Jos Stadium, everyone was shocked. He congratulated Abiola and pledged his total support. He, immediately, asked to be made Vice presidential candidate..... This made Abiola furious.... "We cannot discuss that here".... Adedibu again told MKO, "if you picked Kingibe, you're finished! How can you pick a serious rival like Kingibe as your VP? He didn't come to this place to become VP, otherwise he would have stepped down for you. This man is here because he wants to be President. How can you concede party structure to someone who contested against you and give VP slot to another rival who contested against you? This is not business, this is politics.... F'ara bale je ka ko e l'oselu? "

But the Governors insisted that unless Abiola pick Kingibe, they would not support him. Abiola conceded to the Governors and picked Kingibe. Kingibe was taken to Adedibu in Ibadan, he openly postrated for Adedibu seeking acceptance. Adedibu said " Rise, afterall, they've announced your name. I'm not the candidate, Abiola is and he had chosen you... I have no choice. Rise up, congrats....".

Abiola won. IBB annulled the election, Yar'adua opted for interim government to conduct new election where he could also run, instead of SDP leadership to rise against this and stand by their victory, they supported Yar'adua interim government idea and advised Abiola to forget June 12 Election.....

Interim Came and overthrown by Abacha..... Kingibe, the Vice presidential candidate of MKO left MKO and took a ministerial appointment under Sani Abacha.....

The political structures upon which Abiola mandate stood collapsed. Adedibu was right!

The people practically took over the battle and Abiola became ABIOLA of the People and not Abiola of the SDP! The battle became Peoples Battle.... Abiola died like ordinary man for the people.... Even though, he was always surrounded by the elites during his lifetime, it was the masses that gave him his burial!

Toungo is a town and local government area in the southern part of Adamawa State on the Nigeria-Cameroon border.

“The bandits, it was gathered, had collected over N20 million from their wealthy victims between Koncha in Cameroon and Toungo in Nigeria,” a source in Toungo said.

According to the source, the suspected kidnappers met their end because angry victims went spiritual against them.The Adamawa State Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Suleiman Nguroje, said Friday morning that the incident actually happened within Cameroon soil near the border with Nigeria.

“We heard that the victims engaged the services of a native doctor, but it was said to have occurred in the neighbouring Cameroon, which is not under our jurisdiction,” Nguroje said.

African Development Bank VP resigns, says unrelated to whistleblower probe

 The African Development Bank’s vice president for agriculture, human and social development, Jennifer Blanke, will step down from her post next month, the bank said on Wednesday.


A statement quoted Blanke, who joined the bank in 2017, as saying she was leaving “purely for family reasons to rejoin my family in Switzerland”, amid media speculation she planned to resign in response to controversy surrounding bank president Akinwumi Adesina.


Adesina was accused earlier this year of abuse of office by a bank whistleblower. An internal investigation cleared him of improper conduct, but the bank’s board said last week it had authorised an independent review of the report following pressure by the United States for a new probe
