Another whistle blower lands in prison for giving false information

The Nigeria Police Force on Tuesday arraigned a 50-year-old man, Ahmed Echodo, for allegedly misleading the police to conduct a raid at a building belonging to the Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu, on Friday.

According to the one-count charge, two defendants were accused of the offense, although only Mr. Echodo was arraigned at a magistrate court in Abuja.

Security operatives had ransacked Mr. Ekweremadu’s building on Friday morning following information accusing the occupants of criminal offenses. They found nothing incriminating during the search.

According to the charge, the men, Mr. Echodo and Maiwada Adamu, are accused of conspiring to falsely inform the office of the IGP that the building, occupied by Oliver Ogenyi, is being maintained and used for criminal activities including storage of arms and ammunition.

The second accused, Mr. Adamu, was not in court while the first defendant pleaded not guilty to the charge. The prosecution counsel, Ismail Tawo, informed the court that Mr. Adamu was at large.

The magistrate, Umar Kagarko, asked the police to find and present him in court at the next sitting. The counsel to the defense, Peter Ngwoke, prayed the court to grant his client bail. Mr. Kagarko adjourned till June 5, for ruling on the bail application.

Sex scandal: Female member accuses Pastor Chris Kwakpovwe of making advances at her

Rita Ibeni, a member of Our Daily Manna/Manna Prayer Mountain Ministry, has claimed that her pastor, Chris Kwakpovwe made sexual advances at her, DailyPost reports.

A telephone conversation that purportedly took place between Kwakpovwe and Rita has also been leaked on the Internet.

The male voice in it can be heard expressing his love for Ibeni and interest in having sexual relations with her.

“I’m crazy about you but you are not, so I decided to take my eyes off you. I’m just looking for someone to take out, yesterday I took somebody out and I want to take you out today but you are running from me, you would have enjoyed the two days now. Even Mummy respects you,” the male voice was heard saying.

The male voice assured Ibeni of good sex, saying, “Don’t worry before I do it, I’ll tell you. Don’t you know I can do it, I will do it and you will enjoy it, you will forget your name. You will be calling my name Chris, Chris. I can’t wait to have you.

“I’m missing you crazy, please plan for us to see. If you want us to marry, we will have to plan it. I can never have more than two, I cannot cope with anyone other than Mummy and you. You don’t call or text. I’m in Lekki, working alone and I want to hear from you, I prefer Whatsapp messages.”

In reaction to the viral audio clip, the church has said that the voice in the recording does not belong to their pastor.

“The attention of the bishop and leadership of Our Daily Manna/Manna Prayer Mountain Ministry has been drawn to some voice messages being circulated via social media by some unscrupulous elements,” read the statement signed by Honesty Eguridu for pastoral council and board of deacons and deaconesses.

The statement further read: “The said audio voice recordings which have a semblance of the bishop’s voice are conveying adverse messages which are against the tenets and principles of the ODM vision.

“The most recent in the series of these cloned voice messages is the message asking the recipient to support the ODM vision with monetary donations by calling a certain number with a warning not to inform someone else about it.

“We want to state without any element of equivocation, that the voice message referred to above and others like it are not from Bishop (Dr.) Chris Kwakpovwe. The voice in these messages is not the Bishop’s voice.

“They are the handiwork of satanic agents who are employing the aid of technology to cause distraction and havoc in the body of Christ. We enjoin the Church and the general public to disregard it.”

South African woman, 30, found dead in her office after nearly two weeks

A 30-year-old woman missing for nearly two weeks has been found dead in her Eskom office at the Springs power station, South Africa on Monday, May 29th.

According to LIB, Lucia Thembisile Yende was last seen on May 17. Her white single cab Toyota Hilux was also found in the parking lot. Her body was found in the office which remained locked since the day she went missing, despite police dogs sniffing the premises.

“On the day she was reported missing, police came and searched the offices. They even had police dogs there but could not pick up any smell” Eskom national spokesperson Khulu Phasiwe told News24.
“We know that the woman was found in her office‚ but I don’t know what was the cause of death‚” police spokesperson Kay Makhubele told TimesLIVE on Tuesday morning.
Eskom officials were quoted as saying that “something untoward” had happened on the day that Yende had gone missing‚ referring to the fact that CCTV cameras had stopped recording.

Family spokesperson Mboneni Yende said relatives had tried to figure out what she had been up to at work‚ but were told the CCTV surveillance system was switched off that day.
“The sad part is that on Thursday we went there‚ there were three workers that were inside the station working. On that day‚ it had been 10 days since had been missing‚” Yende said.
“Are you telling me that if someone has been dead for 10 days then you can’t smell anything? That is highly impossible. The people who were there knew what they were doing?”

Meanwhile, Search and Rescue lead investigator Lourens Smit said there is suspected foul play surrounding the death of the young woman.
“When she was reported missing‚ the whole office and its surroundings were checked by SAPS and the K9 unit. The family and community members also searched. Her body was definitely not at the office. On day 13 [13 days after she went missing] her body is found‚ locked in her office. That definitely suggests foul play.” Smit said.
Lourens also said that Eskom’s CCTV was working up until the day Thembisile Yende went missing.
“According to her cousin‚ who went to the Eskom office‚ the cameras were not working on the day that she went missing‚” Smit added.
“Why the cameras were not working‚ I don’t know‚ but there is definitely more to the disappearance.”

Eskom spokesperson Khulu Phasiwe also said the company does not yet have details surrounding Yende’s death and that a post-mortem will shed some light on what happened to her.
“All we know is that she was reported missing for two weeks. She was found in a sub station. Circumstances surrounding her death will be uncovered by the police investigation‚”

Spokesperson Kay Makhubele said the police have opened an inquest docket.
“It is alleged that the woman was last seen when she went to her work place at Eskom in Springs.
Late in the evening the family went to the police station to report her missing after seeing that she was not coming back home and not answering her phone‚” Makhubele said.
“Since then the police have been searching for the whereabouts of the woman. Yesterday [Monday]‚ the police were called at Eskom‚ where they pointed out one office which was not in use and had a funny smell. The police had to break the door because it was locked‚ only to discover the body of the missing woman.”
He said the police do not yet know the cause of Yende’s death and are awaiting post-mortem results.
Makhubele said allegations that cameras were not working when the woman went missing‚ will be part of the police investigation.
“The police are appealing to anyone who might have information to come forward by contacting the nearest police station or alternatively call our Crime Line 08600 10111 or SMS 32211.”

Condemned female Nigerian prisoner re-arrested five years after escape

A condemned female Nigerian prisoner, Rabi Ismail, who escaped from custody in the Hadejia Prison, Jigawa State, on December 16, 2011, has been recaptured.

The Public Relations Officer of the Nigerian Prisons Service, Francis Enobore who disclosed this in a statement yesterday said the prisoner was sentenced to death by hanging, for culpable homicide by a High Court in Kano on the 5th of January, 2005.

The court had found her guilty of drugging, drowning and killing a male friend, Mr Auwalu Ibrahim, in 2002 to acquire his property in Kano.

In July 2011, the Supreme Court upheld the sentence of the lower courts that sentenced her to death by hanging.

Enobore said Rabi Ismail was subsequently held in Kaduna Central prison from where she was transferred to Hadejia prison before she escaped about 6 years ago.

 She was re-arrested by the Intelligence Unit of the Nigerian Prisons Service with the support of men of the Department of State Services. And Enobore expressed the appreciation of the Controller-General of Prisons, Jaa’faru Ahmed to the DSS and the police for their assistance in recapturing the fugitive.

He appealed to members of the public to continue to provide useful information on escapees and other criminal elements to security agents, noting that such outlaws posed security threat to the society.

Enobore said the CG had directed that security measures be strengthened to prevent prison inmates from escaping.

“Other escapees still at large will be fished out no matter how long it takes,” he added.
