Meanwhile, sister of the victim, Mama Tsekpa expressed shock at the conduct of Bobbie over just GH¢50.
She is therefore calling on the police to conduct a thorough investigations to bring the culprit to book.
Read the inspirational testimony as shared on a popular Nigerian online forum:
I give thanks to Allah for giving me the strength and courage to believe in my self, to make employers perceive me as the right candidate right from CV screening to the point of interview. Nothing feels good to be a self made, devoid of any underhand influence other than your ability and God’s blessings.
This is a brief story about me. Immediately I finished NYSC, I was so determined never to sit at home doing nothing. I looked around my environment to secure a job with a cement trading company that paid me a salary of 10k. Soon, I joined Corona Schools Trust Council as a Graduate Teacher Trainee with the hope of being absorbed into their main teaching staff later on because I enjoyed teaching during NYSC.
Unfortunately, Corona Schools changed the goal post in the middle of the game. we were told that the programme is a corporate social responsibility and we wont be absorbed because there was no vacancy. Mind u, we were paid 35k + feeding monthly. Four months wasted for young, bright and brilliant graduates. After some weeks, I secured another job with an Audit Firm to learn practical accounting. Anybody who has worked with a small audit firm knows what it takes to be a man.
Truly, I loved the job but left in frustration after 13 months on a salary scale of between 20-28k per month from Idimu – Maryland, Lagos. If no one praises me, I praise myself. The merry go round continues, got another job with a company that pays 50k. i enjoyed a little relief after NYSC. Spent 3 months and got offer with a capital market operator, my brother, the job no be beans, wake up 4am and return home around 10pm everyday coupled with transportation gulping more than 30% of my net pay.
That really fueled my desire to move again. I started applying voraciously to many job vacancies, related and unrelated skill sets. And finally, the 3 offers landed with a keen decision to be made.
Please be mindful that as a young person, I never set out to be jumping around jobs because of money. but when you find yourself in a let down situation, fight it. Set standard for yourself and go for it. Every employer wants the best and to continue to make more profit which is normal. however, no employer will pity you when it decides to sack you because you u are deemed to work below expectation.
Also note that for every place where I worked, my integrity and appetite for success always remain intact. It hurts me when I resign my appointments and observe that my employers still want me but hey, I can only hustle while I am still young.
Let us be sincere, how can I cope with 28k per month in Lagos, considering the distance for a guy who is around 30? When will I rent an apartment? When will I marry?
My pains and struggles ended recently after three top companies in Nigeria offered me executive jobs with mouth-watering salaries that have shocked even those ahead of me in life. I have picked the best and I will be resuming next week Monday like a boss.
Liberian-born Nollywood actress, Blessing Brown, has revealed that she is so much in love with legendary actor, Pete Edochie, as she described him as her dream husband.
Blessing who has featured in over 10 Nigerian movies after she relocated to Nigeria 6 months ago, admitted that she has been longing to meet the veteran actor, adding that she has always admired him since she was a child, and appreciated everything about him both the way he talks, walks,and acts.
While speaking in an exclusive interview with The Sun, Blessing stated that although Pete Edochie he is married, but she does not mind getting married to him and no one can take his place in her heart not even his son, Yul Edochie.
The budding actress who revealed that in Liberia, Nigerian actors and actresses are held in high esteem and are seen as gods, said;
“Since I was a child, I have been crushing on him. I still look forward to seeing myself in the arms of Pete Edochie. I don’t mind the fact that he is married; he is my dream husband.
“I like the way he talks, walks and acts. Nobody else can substitute him in my life right now. Not even his younger version, Yul Edochie; he doesn’t entice me. All I want is Pete and not his sons or look alike!
“I love him regardless of his age. Older men make good husbands. Age is just a number. If I love a 70-year old man, I don’t see why I shouldn’t marry him.
“I don’t have time for small boys still running around and wearing studs in their ears with lots of chains hanging around their necks.”
She also added that aside being old, her lover must be wealthy as well.
“Any man that wants to date or marry me must be tall. I can’t date a short man because I will always be looking at him like he is my child. I want someone that I would look up to. He has to be rich and caring too. Handsomeness is an added advantage.”
On the reasons she came to Nigeria to pursue her acting career, Ms Brown said that back in her country, Nigerian actors were seen as gods and everyone looked forward to acting alongside them.
“In Liberia we see Nigerian actors as gods. That is why the likes of Frank Artus, Juliet Ibrahim, and Van Vicker among a host of others moved over to Nigeria.
“Now I am here and I look forward to taking over from Yvonne Nelson and Ini Edo among others”, she stated.
Pastor O. Jermaine Simmons is the Senior Pastor of Jacob Chapel in Tallahassee, Florida who was caught sleeping with another man’s wife.
According to NY Daily News, the pastor was caught having s*x with one of his church members in her daughter’s bed by her husband.
However, the pastor bailed on his lover by running out of the house butt n*ked for fear of his life.
The police report states Ms. Claynisha Monette Stephens the wife who committed adultery with the pastor admitted that the two have been engaged in a relationship for a few years and that the pastor was at her home because they were allegedly going to start a business together. They ended up in her daughter’s bed, and while they were engaged in sexual activity, the school was calling trying to get in touch with her to pick her son up. Eventually, they contacted the father, and when he arrived home with their son, he saw both Claynisha and O. Jermaine Simmons in their daughter’s bed.
NY News reports that the husband then went searching for his gun, and that’s when O. Jermaine Simmons bailed out of the house and hid in a nearby yard behind a privacy fence butt n*ked.
Pastor O. Jermaine Simmons was back preaching on Sunday where he tendered an apology before his congregation. According to him, the Lord put him in this position as a lesson for the congregation.
According to the church’s website, Simmons is the ninth pastor of the more than 80-year-old Jacob Chapel and he is also a fourth generation pastor and former public school teacher.
Since his arrival at the church in 2005, more than “4,000 souls have been added to the Body of Christ and the local church.”
“Under Pastor Simmons’ leadership, Jacob Chapel has literally fed the hungry, clothed the naked, ministered to those in prisons, and built houses for those without shelter. It is the message of the Cross, the death, the burial, and the resurrection of Christ from the grave which continues to fuel the fire that burns within this passionate preacher and teacher,” the church said.
In his new book “I Need a Man” published in 2016, Simmons offers a fresh, down-to-Earth perspective on the issues of godly manhood, mentoring, and identity.
Lagos State witnessed a yet another heavy downpour on Tuesday, as some areas in the city were pictured covered in flood.

A Nigerian man who is currently having a change of character has confessed to sleeping with multiple ladies, majorly, female students from private universities.
The female students of Babcock and Igbinedion Universities have been indicted by a married man who claims to have slept with many of them easily.
According to him, he wishes to report them to their Vice Chancellors for their nefarious romantic activities. The man who claims to have had s*x with 35 women last year, 2016, claims to be turning a new leaf.
Read his letter to a relationship blogger, Joro Olumofin below:
These include crunchy celery, lettuce, cucumbers, radishes, and watercress. The fact that they are water-rich means they freeze easily, but freezing ruptures the cell walls that give them their structure, so when they are defrosted they go limp and mushy. (They also develop an unpleasant oxidized aroma, flavor, and color.) However, pickled and fermented veggies will freeze just fine, since their cell walls have already been broken down. Fresh tomatoes can be frozen if you plan to cook them after defrosting, but if you want to eat them raw, don’t freeze—they’ll have a mushy, runny texture.
2. Whole Eggs
Eggs in the shell bust open when frozen, admitting dangerous bacteria. (If you really want to freeze eggs, take them out of their shells, first.
3. Coffee
You can store unopened, freshly roasted bags of coffee in the freezer for up to a month, but after you’ve opened the bag, don’t freeze it again. Thawing and refreezing coffee beans leads to moisture condensation on the beans, causing them absorb unpleasant freezer smells.
4. Soft Dairy Products
Sour cream, cottage cheese, and whipping cream separate and become watery after freezing.
5. Potatoes
Potatoes will discolor and lose texture if you freeze them raw; cooked potatoes turn waterlogged and mealy. Bottom line: Don’t freeze your spuds.
6. Emulsions
Freezing causes mayonnaise and salad dressings to separate and turn watery. (This also goes for recipes containing mayonnaise, such as dips or mayo-based salads.)
7. Block Cheeses
Freezing tends to make cheese very crumbly so that it doesn’t slice or shred well after. (To avoid this, you can shred your cheese before freezing it.)
8. Meringues + Cooked Frosting
Freezing turns airy meringues tough and rubbery; and makes cooked frostings soften and weep. Finish those desserts now instead of putting them on ice for later.
An auxiliary bishop with the Archdiocese of Newark, in America, has been attacked during Mass, Catholic Herald reports.
Essex County authorities say the attack occurred on Saturday at Cathedral Basilica of the Sacred Heart during an event honouring baseball Hall of Famer, Roberto Clemente.
According to Cathlic Herald, authorities say 48-year-old Newark resident Charles Miller was in a pew when allegedly he got up, went to the altar and punched Fr Manuel Cruz in the mouth. Fr Cruz was treated at a hospital for undisclosed injuries that aren’t considered serious.
Miller was charged with assault. Authorities declined to comment on a possible motive for the attack.
The Mass marked the recent anniversary Clemente’s death on New Year’s Eve in 1972. He was killed in a plane crash while trying to bring supplies to the earthquake-ravaged country of Nicaragua.
Femi Adesina, the Senior Special Assistant to President Muhamamdu Buhari on Radio
Femi Adesina, the Senior Special Assistant to President Muhamamdu Buhari, has said those planning to protest on the February 5th alongside singer, 2face Idibia and other celebrities are those who supported the last administration. He made the statement during an interview with Lagos Talk 91.3fm.
“This is a country of about 180 million people. It is impossible for 180 million people to think the same way. Yoruba has a saying that is you all sleep and put your head in the same direction, then you are all foolish because you would be breathing in one another’s mouth and lungs. Dont forget the last election and how it went. Somebody scored 12.5 million votes, another scored about 15 million votes.
“There are some people who are still in that election mode. They have not gotten out of it and till today, they are still living and ‘rheumatisizing’ about the past. What they don’t know is that that past is gone and gone forever. Majority of those calling for the protest are still in election mode. Majority of them are people that have resolved not to see anything good in this administration simply because the man they wanted lost at the polls” he said
As seen in Ibadan, Oyo State, a commercial motorcyclist was pictured carrying 4 school pupils on his fragile transport system while he was making a phone call.
The overloaded motorcycle
An Okada man was recently seen riding his bike with 4 children while attending to his phone along the busy Eleyele express road in Ibadan.
Such act of overloading is not only dangerous to the lives of the man as well as the kids, but also an offence if nabbed by the operatives of the Federal Road Safety Corp, FRSC.
For the first time since 2008, the Chelsea FC squad will not have Branislav Ivanovic in it as their hopes of winning the Premier League title will be tested on Tuesday night when the Blues take on Liverpool at Anfield.
The 32-year-old defender who has been rumoured to leave the club for some time, is on his way out of Stamford Bridge.
European clubs, Zenit St Petersburg and West Brom were chasing his signature, while rumours spread that Ivanovic preferred staying in the Premier League than moving back to Russia.
Regardless of whether that’s true, on Tuesday afternoon, Ivanovic was pictured in Russia having landed ahead of his move to Zenit.
While it’s far to say that Ivanovic is no longer the player he was, he’ll go down in the Chelsea annals as a legend.
During his time with the Blues he won the Premier League twice, the FA Cup three times, the League Cup once, the Champions League once and the Europa League once.
Robert Bobroczky (extreme left) is stands above everyone else
Robert Bobroczky is a 7-foot-7, 16-year-old freshman at SPIRE Institute, a state-of-the-art international academy in Geneva, Ohio, who is set to become the tallest player to ever play in the NBA and of the tallest in the history of the sport.
Bobroczky, a native of Romania, has been described as “so tall he doesn’t look real”.
At age 12, he was already 7 feet tall, and although his growth rate has slowed down over the last four years, he is still on track to become the eighteenth person in medical history to reach or surpass eight feet in height. Unfortunately, his weight has been having trouble keeping up with his growth, and at 7-foot-7, he weighs only 190 pounds. Robert is honing is skills on the basketball court, but if he is to reach the NBA, the first priority is bulking up.
The world first heard about Robert Bobroczky a couple of years ago, when a video of him towering over other teenagers on the basketball court went viral on Facebook, with over 3 million views. He was 7-foot-3 at the time, basically a giant for his age. That’s when Bobby Bossman, Executive Director of SPIRE Institute became interested in the young man.
“Oddly enough, it all started on Facebook,” he told Maxpreps. “We reached out to him a year ago and got to know him and his family. They trusted us and came over to America to visit and here we are. He’s been at our school for three months now and lives on campus.”
Robert’s father, Zsiga, was also a professional basketball player who played on Romania’s national team, alongside 7-foot-7 Gheorghe Muresan, one of the two tallest players to have ever played in the NBA. His father is “just” 7-foot-1 tall, though. He and his wife agreed to move to America to help Robert reach his full potential as a basketball player.
Still a freshman, Robert Bobroczky recently made his high school basketball debut on Jan. 12, in an 87-51 loss to First Love Christian Academy of Washington, Pa., but only played for a few minutes.
His coaches just want him to get accustomed to the type of basketball played in the U.S. for now, but hope to use him on the court full time starting next year. “I told him:
“We want you to be comfortable, we want you to have fun and everything else will take care of itself’,” Bossman said.
“Robert has a great mid-range shot for his size and can also step out and hit 3-pointers,” the SPIRE Executive Director added. “He has great hands, passing ability and a soft touch around the rim. He has the body, intelligence and skill set to be a pro one day. He’s not even close to reaching his potential. But the thing that separates Robert from others is his strong work ethic. The kid just wants it.”
One of his biggest challenges, however, is moving up and down the court at a good pace, which isn’t exactly easy for a boy with such a long frame. “We do weight training to harden his core and he’s also in the pool three times a week with our trainers strengthening muscle groups,” Bobby Bossman told Maxpreps. “He eats three meals a day along with protein and meal replacement shakes. The main thing is ensuring we give him enough calories in his diet, and we’re in the adaptive stage to see how his body responds.”
At just 16 years old, Robert Bobroczky would be the tallest basketball player in the NBA right now, and is in fact the second tallest basketball player in the world, behind 29-year-old Paul Sturgess, a 7-foot-8 professional player from England.
The Federal Road Safety Corps has recommended a nationwide ban on commercial motorcycles popularly known as ‘Okada’ to reduce road accidents.
The recommendation forms part of the October Road Traffic Crash Report 2016, submitted by the Corps Marshal, Mr. Boboye Oyeyemi, to the Secretary to the Government of the Federation.
The report quotes Oyeyemi as saying that commercial motorcyclist remained a major cause of fatal road traffic accidents across the country, hence the need for state governments to consider banning them from operating.
The RTC statistics for October 2016 shows that 230 cases or 18 per cent of a total of 1,259 vehicles involved in accidents within the month were commercial motorcycles.
According to the report, motorcycle accidents ranked third after cars which accounted for 457 cases or 36 per cent, followed by minibuses with 243 or 19 per cent of the total.
Oyeyemi said, “Following the outcome of the analysis, it could be concluded that motorcycle still constitutes serious menace on the nation’s highways.
“Accordingly, improved results could be achieved in the future, if more state governments could consider placing a ban on the use of motorcycle for commercial purposes.
“In view of the above, the Secretary to the Government of the Federation should facilitate and encourage state governments to ban the use of motorcycle for commercial purposes.’’
Commercial motorcycle is currently banned from major routes in some cities and towns including Abuja and state capitals across the country.
Besides their contributions to road accidents, they have also been linked to the operations of armed robbers, kidnappers and other criminals in several parts of the country.
In 2014, the National Council on Transport recommended their ban nationwide “to ensure adequate provision of safe and secure means of transportation in the country’’.
Reports say Anambra and Lagos states had for over two years banned the use of commercial motorcycle on highways in their territories.
Nigerians may pay additional N5 on petroleum price if the current National Roads Fund bill before the House of Representatives is passed into law, according to the DailyTrust.
The N5 increase is part of recommendations of a technical committee set up by the House Committee on Works, chaired by Rep Toby Okechukwu (PDP, Enugu).
The technical committee, chaired by Chris Okoye, was in November given the task of drawing a report to be reviewed and considered by the House.
The National Road Fund, when established, is to serve as a repository of revenues from road user-related charges and other sources for financing to be managed and administered for routine and periodic maintenance works on Nigerian roads.
Thus, as part of the sources for the fund, the committee recommended that “fuel levy of N5 chargeable per litre on any volume of petrol and diesel products imported into Nigeria and on locally refined petroleum products.”
Other sources the committee recommended include, toll fees not exceeding 10 percent of any revenue paid as user charge per vehicle on any federal road designated as a toll road; international vehicle transit charges; inter-state mass transit user charge of 0.5 percent deductible from the fare paid by passengers as well as surcharge of 0.5 percent chargeable on the assessed value of any imported vehicle into the country.
The other sources of funding as recommended by the committee are lease, license or other fees which should be 10 percent of the revenue accruing from such or other fees pertaining to non-vehicular road usages along any federal road; grants and loans and gifts of land, money or other property.
The fund is to be managed by a governing board with a managing director as the head of the fund.
However, the National Institute for Policy and Strategic Studies (NIPSS) opposed the recommendation on the N5 fuel levy. The institute, which was part of the technical committee, submitted a minority report to the House works committee.
Tributes have continued to pour in for the late Nigerian Minister of State for Education, Saka Saadu, who died on January 23 at the age of 80.
A fidau prayer for the peaceful repose of his soul was held in Ilorin on Saturday, January 28.
Premium Times reported that the Vice-Chancellor of the University of Ilorin, AbdulGaniyu Ambali, described the late Minister of State for Education as a man of proven integrity whose contributions to the growth and development of education in Nigeria would not be forgotten in a hurry.
According to Unilorin Bulletin, Ambali described the death of the renowned educationist as a monumental loss to the nation and to the University of Ilorin in particular. He said the record of achievements of the late Saadu as a member and subsequently Chairman of the University of Ilorin Governing Council, were enormous and profound.
“Alhaji Saadu was a man with godly mind, a good family man, a person who served his community with all his heart. He was well loved by everybody around him.
“He will be well remembered here at the University of Ilorin for the period he served as a council member and subsequently as acting Chairman of the Council, especially during the trying period of the University of Ilorin. We are all touched by his departure and we pray God to grant him eternal rest,” he said.
A former vice-chancellor of the university, Oba Abdulraheem, described the late Saadu as a great community leader, who used his wealth for the progress and advancement of education and his community.
Oba, who is also former Chairman of Federal Character Commission, said “Alhaji Saka Saadu lived an exemplary life, a life of a true Muslim, a life of a community leader, and a life of a patriot. We will miss him very dearly and we believe that Allah will reward him for what he lived to do and grant him Aljanat Fridaus.”
The National President of Ilorin Emirate Descendants Progressive Union, IEDPU, Abdulhamid Adi, said the people of Ilorin Emirate and Nigeria as a whole will sorely miss the deceased.
“The late Alhaji Saka Saadu was a kind-hearted man; he served virtually in all strata of government. He was Permanent Secretary, Commissioner, Secretary to the State Government and Minister. When he retired from active service, people were calling him to head various committees.
“He headed the Committee on Monument and Museum set up by the Emir of Ilorin of which I was a member. He was until his death the Chairman of the Quranic competition committee that is coming up next month (February). He has been very useful to the community. He was a utility man to the community”.
Saadu died at the University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital, UITH at the age of 80.
Speaking at the late Saadu’s Agba Dam Street residence, GRA, Ilorin, one of his children, Abdulkadir Saadu, described him as a great educationist and scientist who loved Chemistry, Mathematics and Physics.
“My father was a commissioner in the old Kwara State. He was appointed Commissioner for Land and Environment in July 1975 by the late Col. Ibrahim Taiwo,” he said.
“When Taiwo died in 1976, he was still in the cabinet of the late Military Administrator George Agbazika Innih till 1978. He was a very honest man.”

A CRY OF HELP!
Please my good people of our nation, i am sincerely calling out for justice against violence. I am hospitalized right now as i type this with the lil stamina in me; i am in serious pain and agony; in between life and death. This is my story:
This morning, at about 11.50am, i boarded a siena vehicle leaving PortHarcourt for Onitsha. As we approached the first checkpoint immediately after the airport, we pulled over as the soldiers ordered us to, for the usual scrutinization.
One of them, the youngest of them, by name, SULAIMAN OLAMILEKAN, began to molest me. He accused me of discussing him, where i was only having a friendly debate with the lady beside me about whether his car is tinted or not because of the way the we where being delayed because the driver didn’t bring the back glass down when he stopped us immediately he was like ‘hey you wetin you just talk now’ I explained to him that he was never in the picture of the gist but he ignored me and demanded i disembark from the vehicle, kneel down and apologise to him.
I called his bluff and explained to him that i did nothing wrong to apologise. To my greatest dismay, this dude went in search of any object at his disposal (a huge stick), and started hitting it all over my body. He shove me out of the vehicle and when he piecesed the stick on me he went in search of another thing and he came back with a big rod immediately I saw him coming with that one and I noticed everyone was already scared to come closer also his colleagues were just there busy with the stopping of other vehicles I ran out of the vehicle and jumped down wanted to run over to the other lane to where their ogas used to stay but on a second thought I sensed he might throw the big rod on me I then stood still not believing he could actually used that on me b4 I knew it he started hitting my two leg with it.
I was helpless as my fellow passengers were scared to intervene, the others (soldiers) disengaged him from hitting me further but they did not reprimand/reprove him. Instead, they confiscated my phone and prevented me from taking pictures of any of them my phone’s screen is in pieces now. When i told them that i would nolonger proceed with the journey, they restrained me from going back to Portharcourt by compelling the driver to embark on our journey to (Onitsha) with me.
The driver drove off to some distance away from there, and i alighted from the vehicle and boarded another one heading back to Portharcourt. The passengers in the bus were astonished at the injuries i sustained from the brutality. They sympathized with me and advised me to take the matter up. Even the new driver confirmed Ola to be a ruthless soldier as he has had an encounter like that with him before.
As soon as we arrived Portharcour, i went straight to the Army Barracks to file a report about him. I narrated the whole story to them. The soldiers and the superiors there, were astonished at the cruel act and were sympathizing with me and pleaded that i shouldn’t take the case any further; that the Ola dude would be remanded for one month in the barracks there (which i feel is not enough justice)they said he just joined then in the yr 2015
I was quickly attended to and was taken to their clinic for treatment. They summoned for Ola, the dude was very shocked that the case had gotten here already. To God be the glory, he confessed correctly that i didn’t do anything to have warranted his cruel action that he was in a very bad mood He said what happened there was inexplicable. This time, he genuflected and implored for compassion. He took my number when I was giving it to the nurse for my admission at the hospital an whatsapped me to forgive him and not take things seriously. (This was how i tracked his identity on True caller.)
Right now i am bedridden. The doctor said i am running temperature due to my high blood pressure. I am in serious pain and rendered partially immoveable. How do i explain this uncomely incidence to my family in Onitsha whom i was supposed to meet with? Here are the pictures of what happened in the scene including the picture of the violator and the rod he used You can access him with his facebook addy, “Sulaiman Olamilekan”.
Please Help! Help me reach out to anybody in authority, who can fight this violence. Violence is indeed a cankerworm that has eaten us deep into every fabric of the Nigerian Army Force. Soldiers fight and protect their own, not to destroy the innocent civilians’
The statue of Goodluck Jonathan at a school hostel
One Comrade Onyekachi Divine has erected a statue of ex-president Goodluck Jonathan at the University of Port Harcourt, Rivers State.
According to him, he did the project to show love to GEJ for his exemplary display of democracy, leadership to the country and contributions to the development of his alma mater (University of Port Harcourt).
The young man took to his social media page to pen down some words for the People’s Democratic Party chieftain.
Read his words below:
‘Recognition well-deserved and I chose to do it for the man after my heart”
“This rare statue/image is for the love I have for him and commissioned to respect our former President in recognition of his exemplary display of democracy, leadership to the country and contributions to the development of his alma mater (University of Portharcourt).
he is my hero.
“The artwork like the man that inspired it, with the signature hat and smiling face all in place.”
“He contested and lost the 2015 presidential election, upon which he conceded defeat and became the first sitting Nigerian president to do so”.
