Central Bank of Nigeria, Chief of Staff to the President were

abandoned. But when President Buhari came on board, he made a South-west
person his vice-president, the Minister of Works, Power and Housing is
from this zone, Minister of Health and other juicy positions were also
allotted to the region. So, the coming election is for the liberation of

state. We know that this will help in no small measure in boosting the
economy of the state when completed. “Added to the foregoing was the

Chairman, Daar Communications, Raymond Dokpesi, who is being prosecuted
by the EFCC before Justice John Tsoho of a Federal High Court, Abuja has
been ordered to open his defence on February 20, 2019. Dokpesi
alongside DAAR Investment and Holdings Ltd, owners of African
Independent Television, AIT, and Raypower are being prosecuted by the
EFCC, on a six-count charge bordering on alleged procurement fraud and
breach of public trust. He is alleged to have received N2.1billion from
the Office of the National Security Adviser, ONSA, between October 2014
and March 2015, during tenure of Col Sambo Dasuki (retd) as NSA for
services not rendered. The EFCC had through its 12th witness, Abubakar
Aliyu Madaki, led in evidence by Rotimi Jacobs, SAN, stressed that the
defendant “did not do any contract but was paid”. However, rather than
open its case, the media mogul had through his counsel, Kanu Agabi, SAN,
filed a "no-case" submission arguing that his client had no case to
answer in the alleged fraud. At today's proceeding, Justice Tsoho, after
going through all the arguments and counter-arguments, dismissed his
"no-case" application and ordered him to open his defence at the next
adjourned date. “I hereby strike out the application,” the judge said,
stressing that Dokpesi's claim that he had no case to answer could not
be substantiated and so was a false claimThe post Alleged N2.1bn ONSA Fraud.
On Wednesday, founder of Zenon Oil, Femi Otedola appeared before an
Abuja High Court to testify in the trial of a former member of the House
of Representatives, Farouk Lawan for alleged fraud. Otedola who is a
prosecution witness in the trial was allegedly pressured by Lawan to
part with a three-million-dollar bribe while Lawan was chairing a
subcommittee investigating a multi-billion-dollar fraud associated with
government fuel subsidy during the administration of former President
Goodluck Jonathan. Otedola entered the witness box after he was
introduced by the prosecution counsel, Adegboyega Awomolo after which a
video where Lawan was seen receiving $500 000 from the Zenon oil boss,
was played. According to Otedola, the accused had indicted his company
in the alleged fraud and demanded three million dollars to exonerate
him. He added that after the initial deposit of $500,000 was paid into
his account, Lawan declared Zenon Oil and Gas free of the initial
indictment. When asked by the prosecution counsel about the claim by
Lawan that the witness forced him to take the money, Otedola denied it.
Otedola also denied a claim by Lawan that Zenon Oil and Gas was
exonerated on the basis of documents later provided by the company.
The defence counsel was, however, unable to cross-examine Otedola as
he requested for an adjournment to enable his principal to attend the
next trial and conduct the cross-examination. Lawan was first arraigned
in February 2013 along with another accused, Boniface Emenalo, for
allegedly receiving $620,000 of the alleged bribe from Otedola and his
company.The post Alleged $3m Bribe:

A teenager was disowned and thrown out of her home together with all her
childhood toys after her parents discovered she is gay.Emily Scheck’s
mom and dad found a photo of her with her girlfriend Justyna, so they
threw her out. They also threw out all her stuffed animals, awards. The
19-year-old, from Webster in New York, also received a text from her
mother warning her that she will be disowned if she doesn't university
and if she doesn't undergo conversion therapy to "cure" her
homosexuality. But Emily, who studies at Cansius College in Buffalo,
refused to quit school or hide her sexuality, leaving her homeless and
broke. She came home to find that all her belongings had been moved into
her car. The license plates had also been taken off from her car, with
her dad refusing to pay for its insurance.Scheck’s parents added a note
confirming that she had been disowned and warned her never to contact
them again. She was left homeless and with just $20 in her pocket, until
a friend stepped in and set up a GoFundMe account which soon raised
$100,000.
A man broke a 6-year-old boy's head with his phone because the boy was
guessing the answer to his homework.Clement Watkins, 44, attacked the
child while attempting to help him complete his homework on November 3
in Sunrise, Florida. He is said to have become enraged when the boy took
a guess at one of the answers rather than work it out. He then took his
phone and slammed it down on the boy's head, splitting it open.The
assault left the boy bleeding and Watkins didn't take the boy to a
doctor for treatment.When questioned by officers, Watkins claimed that
he tossed the phone up three flights of stairs and that it had struck
the child after he failed to catch it. But the boy told officers that he
was hit by the man while attempting his home work.Watkins has been
charged with child abuse. Police have not released details of his
relationship to his alleged victim.
A cyclist with a knife lodged deep into his head walked into a hospital
and asked "do you have a doctor free?Shaun, 34, was stabbed through the
head with a knife during an attempted robbery. He rode to the hospital
on his bicycle immediately after the attack with the knife stuck to him.
Receptionists were shocked to see a blood-soaked man in front of them
in a room full of patients.He had been cycling to work in Strand near
Cape Town, South Africa, when he was attacked by two men, one of whom
stabbed him in the head as they tried to grab his bike. But Shaun fought
back and managed to beat them both off. He then got back on his bike
and cycled to the nearest hospital with the knife sticking out of the
side of his skull.The local GP Dr Brendan Venter, 48, said:One of our
female doctors was on duty and she was called to a patient with a knife
wound.To say it was dramatic to see him with a knife sticking out of the
side of his head was an understatement but he was very calm and lucid
although bleeding a lot.He asked very politely if we had a doctor free
to see him.The doctor decided that rather than wait for an ambulance she
would drive him to hospital in her car herself and he asked if it was
OK to leave his bike with us.The patient was very lucky in that although
the knife was plunged into his skull it bent on impact with the bone
and the blade went down his face outside the skull.He was very very
lucky that the blade hit him in the wrong spot to kill him.He fought for
his bike back and rode to us as he knew where we were and we are his GP
and when he got here he just walked in and calmly asked for help.This
is not something that happens every day and it seems it is a violent
gang who have struck viciously a few times in the last few weeks and
they will be caught.It was not even an expensive bike and is one he
cycles on to and from work each day. Why they used the level of violence
they did is just beyond me. 
Shaun was
transferred into the Tygerberg Hospital nearby on Monday afternoon and
underwent emergency surgery and a spokesman confirmed he was
"stable".The South African Police Service confirmed they are
investigating the attack.
