Operatives of the Federal Special Anti Robbery Squad of the Police Command in Imo says it has arrested a member of the U.S. Army, Mr. Garrick Michael, over alleged advance fee fraud.
 
The Commissioner of Police, Mr. Dasuki Galadanchi, disclosed this on Wednesday in Owerri while presenting to journalists the suspect, Michael, and other suspects involved in different crimes ranging from armed robbery, to kidnapping and child trafficking.
 
Galadanchi said Michael was an American citizen who specialised in defrauding women of huge amount of money under the pretext of securing American visa for them.
 
He named victims of the suspect as Sylva Chineyenwa, Wuchi Peace and Duny Glory.
 
Michael told the News Agency of Nigeria that he returned to Nigeria to visit his wife who resided in the country before he met his three alleged victims.
 
He said his business deal with the women was still valid before his arrest.
 
The commissioner also said that a kidnapper who had been on the police blacklist, one Reginald Durunzenwata, was arrested on August 4 and would soon be charged to court.
 
He said the suspect was allegedly involved in the kidnap and murder of a businessman, Chidi Eburuaji, in Imo. Eburuaji was kidnapped and murdered in July.
 
Galadanchi said apart from kidnapping, the suspect also specialised in diverting petrol tankers.

"He is a true friend I have decided to be there for regardless of the situation. You know me, I am a very loyal person. If I say it is you, then it is you. For me outside the house, Leo is the closest. I like him and I want to be there for him''. she said

Barcelona Sign Senegal Star, Moussa Wague For 4.5 Million Euros... Check Out His Incredible Release Clause

Barcelona have signed Senegalese international footballer, Moussa Wague to join its ranks as a staggering release clause is inserted in his contract.

Moussa Wague
 
Barcelona have captured the £4.5million signing of Senegal international Moussa Wague from Belgian side KAS Eupen, Daily Mail UK reports.
 
And the Catalan giants have looked to fend off interest in Wague in the future by inserting a sensational £90m release clause in his contract.
 
The 19-year-old right back has signed a five-year contract at the Nou Camp and will join up with the Barcelona B side at the beginning of his spell in Spain.
 
Wague passed his relevant medical tests on Friday, August 3 and he met up with Barcelona president Josep Maria Bartomeu for the first time. 
 
Wague impressed at the World Cup in Russia as Senegal agonisingly missed out on a place in the knockout rounds to Colombia and Japan in Group H. 
 
The teenager became the youngest African to score in World Cup history after netting a decent finish against Japan.
 
Wague, well known for his blistering pace, has experience playing in the Europa League and the Belgian top flight with Eupen.
 
In his two seasons in the first team at Eupen, Wague played 23 games in the top flight.
 
Before moving to Belgium, the defender learned his trade as a footballer at Aspire Academy in Qata

How Ex-DSS Boss, Lawal Daura Was Arrested

Lawal Daura has been relieved of his duties hours after orchestrating the siege on the National Assembly yesterday.

 
Lawal Daura
 
The plot was like that of a movie, leaving trained security and intelligence officials confused. At the end of it, Lawal Daura, then head of one of Nigeria’s foremost security agencies was whisked away while his well trained security aides waited for him.
 
Multiple sources at the Nigerian Presidency have told PREMIUM TIMES how Mr Daura, former Director-General of State Security Service, (SSS), was sacked and arrested on the orders of Acting President Yemi Osinbajo on Tuesday.
 
Mr Daura was sacked after masked SSS operatives laid siege to the National Assembly complex preventing lawmakers and civil servants from gaining access into the building.
 
The siege was only lifted about an hour after Mr Daura’s sack.
 
OSINBAJO OUTRAGED
 
Sources at the presidential villa said Mr Osinbajo, who has been in charge since President Muhammadu Buhari proceeded on a 10 day vacation to the UK, was outraged by the actions of the SSS.
 
“When the siege began, the acting president quickly went to action and was able to gather preliminary information of what was going on after which he invited some of the security chiefs concerned for a briefing,” one of the sources said.
 
He said those invited include the Inspector-General of Police, Ibrahim Idris and the former DG, Mr Daura. This platform earlier reported Mr Osinbajo’s meeting with both officials.
 
The source also said the acting president was briefed earlier by National Security Adviser, Babagana Monguno.
 
“When Lawal Daura came in, the acting president asked him who cleared him to order operatives to lay siege on the National Assembly; and his response was ‘shocking’.

“He simply said it’s within his powers and that he is only answerable to the President and Commander-in-Chief who appointed him,” the source said.
 
The source also said unknown to Mr Daura, the acting president had already spoken to Mr Buhari after initial reports indicated that Mr Daura “was in play with President of the Senate, Bukola Saraki.”
 
After his response, Mr Osinbajo told his media aide, Laolu Akande, to immediately issue a statement announcing the sack of Mr Daura.
 
“The acting president also asked the National Security Adviser to hand over the sacked DG to the police for further investigation,” he said.
 
DAURA ARRESTED
 
Another source at the Villa , who witnessed the drama that followed the directive from Mr Osinbajo, said as soon as his arrest was ordered, the Aide De Camp (ADC) to Mr Osinbajo was seen rushing to the ceremonial gate, where the Mobile Police Force office is located.
 
“The ADC returned to the VP wing with some mobile police officers in a rush and asked that a vehicle should be brought immediately to the rear area for (Daura’s) evacuation.

“We thought the VP, who is the only one whose convoy uses that place, was about to go out and there was a need for additional vehicle. An SUV was ‘scrambled’ but the ADC said they should bring a tinted Hilux van,” he said.
 
Meanwhile, the source said Mr Daura ‘s convoy and personal security were waiting for him, like they normally do, at the administration gate (a separate one from the ceremonial gate) not knowing what was going on inside.
 
“All of them thought the DG was still meeting with the acting president until the convoy was asked to return to headquarters empty,” he said.
 
Another source, a former director in the SSS who worked with Mr Daura, said he (Daura) is currently being detained at the Federal Special Anti-Robbery Squad (FSARS), in Abuja.
 
“The fact that he was handed over to SARS and detained in a guest house (for high profile suspects) should give you an indication of how the government is handling this matter. He is now considered a suspected serious criminal,” he said.
 
He also said a combined team of both the police and SSS “would have begun interrogating Mr Daura by now.”
 
THE REPLACEMENT
 
It was reported how Mr Daura’s security details returned to the SSS headquarters without their principal.
 
A senior official at the SSS said the security details, after waiting for Mr Daura to come out from the meeting with the vice president, simply received an order from a director at the agency that they return to the agency’s headquarters.
 
By then, an acting Director-General had been named for the SSS.
 
Matthew Seiyefa, was until his appointment the director in charge of the Institute of Security Studies (ISS), an institution established in 2005 as the cardinal training institution for the SSS.
 
Mr. Seiyefa was the most senior official at the SSS after Mr Daura. He briefly met with Mr Osinbajo on Tuesday. The acting DG, an indigene of Bayelsa State, was director of operations between 2007 and 2010 when Afakriya Gadzama ran the agency.

I Joined APC When I realized That Buhari Is A Man Of Integrity - Akpabio

Akpabio has spoken highly about the personality of President Muhammadu Buhari whom he has described as a man of integrity.

 
Senator Godswill Akpabio and President Muhammadu Buhari
 
Former Senate minority Leader, Senator Godswill Akpabio, on Wednesday said he decided to leave the opposition Peoples Democratic Party for the ruling All Progressives Congress after he discovered that “President Muhammadu Buhari is a man of integrity and a nationalist.”
 
He pledged to take the people of Akwa Ibom State and the South South to the centre for “meaningful visibility.”
 
The 55-year-old former governor of Akwa Ibom State formally defected from the opposition PDP to the ruling APC at a mega rally held at the Ikot Ekpene township stadium.
 
He told the huge crowd that he decided to join APC because he discovered that President Muhammadu Buhari “is a man of integrity and a nationalist.”
 
Akpabio said that he decided to join a party that would sweep away poverty and impunity; stressing that he joined APC to “help salvage the country.”
 
“The country is at war and all hands must be on deck to salvage the situation and not to aggravate it.

“As keepers of national emergency, everyone should put heads together. I decided to join to emancipate the people and provide succour for the people.’’
 
He said that the PDP of today has no vision and the leadership is replete with arrogance.
 
Earlier, the Managing Director, Niger Delta Development Commission, Mr. Nsima Ekere, said that change had come to Akwa Ibom and the South South.
 
He said that Akwa Ibom has joined the progressive states because the people were dissatisfied with the long misrule of the PDP.
 
He said that Akpabio built the people and provided them with infrastructure but the present PDP government was a failure.
 
Ekere said that the people have agreed to re-elect President Muhammadu Buhari in 2019.

Kim & Kourtney Kardashian Takes Feud Online


Kourtney Kardashian has moved her shocking feud with sister Kim to social media and also took a swipe at sister Khloe and momager Kris Jenner.

Kourt and Kim can’t seem to get over their tense fight over arrangements for their annual Christmas card.

After being trolled by fans following the release of a Keeping Up With The Kardashians preview ahead of the season 15 premiere, which showed their heated exchange – Kim is now arguing with Kourtney on Twitter for all to see.

In the teaser clip, Kim called her older sister the ‘least exciting’ to look at after the siblings clashed over last year’s photoshoot.

It’s fair to say the argument was an ugly one and as fans watched season 15 kick off with an explosive premiere mum-of-three Kim ripped into Kourtney for ‘messing up’ plans for the family photo shoot.

Now, you would assume that the pair have since kissed and made up but it looks like revisiting the scenes has sparked some new tensions right as the show premiered in the US overnight.

Kourtney said watching the scenes back gave her ‘chills’, before declaring: ‘We all have our own priorities. Mine is being a mother.’

A furious Kim responded on Twitter: ‘And mine is not? The shoot was with our kids!!!!! My #1 priority is being a mother as well and I can work too, so can you!’

Kourtney, not one to back down, hit back: ‘And I do. But I wasn’t wanting MORE work, I already felt spread thin.

‘Being a good mother also has different meaning to each of us. You’re an amazing mother, I’m not taking that away from you.’

And then in came Khloe, who tried to play the peacemaker. But Kourt, mum-of-three, was not having a single bar of it.

Khloe, who was pregnant with True Thompson at the time, tweeted: ‘I just wanted peace.’

‘Khloe let’s be honest here,’ Kourt replied unamused.

A shocked Khloe asked: ‘Wait are you for real @Koutneykardash? Do we want to get into why all of us were frustrated with you? You want to do this on twitter?’

And then Kourtney, not finished with dragging her two younger sisters pulled in mama Kris, saying that she was disappointed with how she handled her children’s disagreement.

After the show finished, Khloe wrote to her 25 million followers: ‘OK I don’t know what was crazier… The premiere of KUWTK or the Twitter feud between my sisters and I LOL are we fighting again?? I guess it’s time for that conference call.’

Well, Khloe you might be finding this funny enough to type ‘LOL’ but Kourtney is clearly in her feelings about it all.

Kourtney told E! News on Friday that she is still working on her issue with her siblings.

‘Honestly, I think it’s ongoing. I’ve been really working on myself a lot and I think through my growth, I’m better at expressing myself,’ she said.

‘It’s a lot of communication instead of letting things go back into the way that they were. It’s definitely a process and you’ll see it throughout the season.’


24-Year-Old Bride Dies A Day After Her Wedding


Less than 24 hours after her marriage was solemnized, fatin nursyahirah yusuf passed away.

She married her beau, known only as Azzam, on Friday morning. Sadly, Fatin Nursyahirah succumbed to cancer early the next day.

She had been suffering from stage four sarcoma cancer.

Shukur Yusuf, 30, who documented his sister's wedding on Facebook, said Fatin was admitted to hospital after Friday prayers when her breathing deteriorated.


“God loves her more and she left us at dawn on Saturday with Mama, Abah (father), her husband, Mak Besah, and myself by her side,” he wrote in a heart-wrenching post which has since gone viral.


When contacted by mStar Online, Shukur said his 24-year-old sister, affectionately known as Kakak (big sister), had undergone two surgeries and radiotherapy sessions since last year.

But the cancer had already spread.

"She was inconsolable. I tried to encourage her even when I was crying myself," he said, adding it was his sister's dying wish to go on with the wedding.

Azzam and Fatin were engaged in June last year, and Shukur said both of their families agreed to go on with the wedding despite Fatin's condition.

"We were very moved by Azzam and his family's sincerity who accepted an ailing person to be part of their lives.

"After the solemnisation ceremony, we felt grateful and relieved that they were able to be united as husband and wife, even if it would just be for a short while," he said, adding his sister looked beautiful during the ceremony.

He also wrote in his post that the simple ceremony was attended by family members, witnesses and the kadi.

Shukur said his family has accepted Fatin's passing as part of God's plan.

"She was a happy-go-lucky person. But she would keep her problems to herself as she never wanted to trouble anyone. That was Kakak," he said.


Terrifying Moment Man Finds Huge Python Climbing To The Top Of His House (Photos)

A man couldn't hide his fear after he caught a snake climbing onto the roof of his house to find a home there.


The huge python
A homeowner has shared terrifying pictures of an enormous snake slithering up his property trying to find a home there.
According to myGC Australia, the huge python stretching three metres could be seen slithering up the outside wall of the Australian home.
Gold Coast man Robbie Knills was hanging out his washing when he noticed the massive python on the ground of his Mudgeeraba property. Mr Knills told myGC that the python often comes to out to say hello and had been living on his roof for about six months.
After watching the snake slither along the backyard, Mr Knills was shocked to learn how quickly it could climb the walls of his property.
'I didn't know they could climb houses like that – five minutes later and I would have got the scare of my life,' Mr Knills said. 
Mr Knills said he was glad he was the one putting the washing out as his wife would never do it again if she had seen the python climbing the home.
He said he was initially scared of the snake but has become quite fond of it as it harmlessly hangs out and watches Mr Knills work in the shed.
'I don't trouble him and he doesn't trouble me,' he said. 
The image was also shared to Reddit with the caption: 'This is why we have to keep new screens on all windows in Australia, even on the 2nd floor.'

Shock As Mysterious Creature With 'Eyes As Big As Dinner Plates' Appears On Popular Beach (Photos)

A mysterious, giant creature which reportedly 'has eyes as big as dinner plates' has washed up a popular beach.

WASHED UP: The whale had lost its head and its tail
 
This mysterious creature left locals stumped after washing up on the shoreline, with stunned fishermen reporting it was a 30ft giant squid.
 
The bizarre "globster" was spotted near St James Bay in the US state of Alaska by a crew who believed it was a giant squid with "eyes the size of dinner plates".
 
But a biologist from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has now inspected the corpse and revealed it to be a decaying humpback whale.
 
It’s one of several globsters – a term used since the 1960s to describe washed-up creatures with “no visible eyes, no defined head, and no apparent bone structure” – to have caused a stir recently.
 
MYSTERIOUS: The bizarre "globster" was spotted near St James Bay in the US state of Alaska
 
Biologist Johanna Vollenweider, who inspected the carcass, said it had lost its head and its tail, and was easy to mistake it for something else.
 
“Fishermen mistook the animal as a giant squid likely because they could not get very close to it as it was hung up on a rocky reef very near the shore,” she said.
 
“The animal was highly visible to our gillnet fleet, which was actively fishing in the area. From a distance, the animal could look like a squid.

“The body was very soft because it was so rotten and there were long, orange stripes along the body which are the pleats of the expandable throat of the humpback whale.

“Perhaps these looked like tentacles from afar.
“The animal was also described as having ‘eyes the size of dinner plates’. The ‘eye’ was actually the socket joint of the pectoral fin, that was somewhat orange and visible from a distance.”
 
DEATH: It’s believed that the whale was killed by a ship strike
 
A similar globster left locals in the Philippines spooked in May, with some taking it as an omen of impending disaster.
 
Johanna said decomposing whales tended to leave people bewildered because of how they deteriorate.
 
“The blubber gets real soft and gooey when it rots,” she said. “Animals also eat the carcasses so body parts are mutilated.
 
“This whale washed up on the beach for a period, and was eaten by eagles and likely brown bears before it floated off the rocks.

“Somehow, during that time, part of the head with the baleen as well as the tail disappeared.

“I don't know if orcas or sharks may have consumed parts of it. Perhaps the head is still on the beach where it first washed up.”
 
It’s believed that the whale was killed by a ship strike, with evidence of blunt force trauma to the body.

Manchester United Finally Make Decision On Pogba Sale

Reports have suggested that the World Cup-winning midfielder could be on the move this summer, but the Red Devils have never contemplated selling.

 
Paul Pogba
 
Manchester United are unwilling to allow Paul Pogba to leave the club amid claims that his agent has been lining up a move to Barcelona or Juventus.
 
Reports emerged in recent days that super-agent Mino Raiola has been attempting to secure Pogba a move away from Old Trafford two years on from his return to the club for a then-world record transfer fee of £89.5 million ($116m) from Juve.
 
A meeting between Pogba and his former France team-mate Eric Abidal in Los Angeles was construed by some as a potential approach by Abidal, now technical secretary at Barcelona, while there have also been suggestions that Juventus were willing to offer midfielder Miralem Pjanic in part-exchange for the 25-year-old.
 
But Goal understands that United have never considered allowing Pogba to leave in the current transfer window, with this Thursday’s deadline for purchases by English Premier League clubs making a sale of such a key player even more irreconcilable.
 
While Pogba would technically have until the European transfer deadline day on August 31 to secure a transfer to any continental club, United would only have until 5pm BST on Thursday to sign a replacement.
 
United also have no interest in agreeing a part-exchange deal, with Juventus themselves believed to be keen to hold on to Pjanic despite reports to the contrary.
 
Jose Mourinho has already become perturbed at the need to wait so long to discover the result of the attempted capture of Tottenham’s Toby Alderweireld and is not ready to entertain such a momentous loss to his existing playing group this late in the day.
 
Pogba remains a key part of Mourinho’s plans at Old Trafford despite a dip in form last spring resulting in the manager leaving him out of the starting line-up for a number of fixtures, including both legs of their Champions League exit to Sevilla.
 
The addition of Fred from Shakhtar Donetsk this summer is seen as a signing to complement Pogba and Nemanja Matic in Mourinho’s first-choice midfield rather than helping to clear the way for a sensational sale.
 
The manager has recently challenged Pogba to recreate with United the kind of form which saw him star in France’s World Cup triumph over the summer.
 
“I hope that he understands why he was very good,” Mourinho said. “I think that’s the point about his performance level, his contribution to a winning team, for him to understand why he was so good, especially in the second part of the competition, the quarter-final, semi-final and final where in my opinion he was absolutely brilliant.”
 
Pogba returned to training at United’s Carrington base on Monday ahead of Friday’s Premier League opener against Leicester City. He was among a number of players given dispensation to take a full three-week holiday after his country had gone all the way at the World Cup.

How Davido Cheated Me After Signing My Artist, Peruzzi - Record Label Boss Blows Hot, Gives Details

The owner of a Nigerian record label has blown hot, accusing pop star, Davido of cheating him by signing his artiste, Peruzzi.
Peruzzi and Davido
 
Patrick Anyaene, the owner of Golden Boy Entertainment, has alleged that singer David Adeleke, aka Davido, has treated him unfairly following the signing of his former artiste, Peruzzi, to Davido Music Worldwide.
 
The feud started on Instagram during the week when Anyaene wrote that Davido wouldn’t have had hit songs since November last year but for him.
 
Speaking with Sunday Scoop, Anyaene said that he had issues with Perruzi particularly, not David.
 
He stated, “I don’t have problems with Davido; I have issues with Perruzi, my artiste. All the songs Davido released since last year November are my records. They are my records because those songs were written by my artiste. Songs like Fia, Ada, Mind by DMW, Aje by DMW and other songs they might be working on now are all the property of Golden Boy Entertainment.”
 
He explained that when he found out that Peruzzi gave songs to Davido, he felt bad about it. But, according to him, after having a one-on-one discussion with Davido, they agreed on how he would be settled or rewarded.
 
“Peruzzi has been going for shows and getting paid; I have been patient with them since November. I am unhappy because I have not been settled. As a businessman, when you invest money in an individual, you expect a return.

“Davido has given Peruzzi some guts to do whatever he likes; he has forgotten that he signed a contract with me and I have lawyers on the case.

“Perruzi started working with me in 2016 and I was paying him salary. I officially signed him in 2017 for a three-year contract. He has breached a contract and he is an ingrate,” he lamented.
 
The CEO insisted that he knew what actions to take but he didn’t want to appear like an enemy of progress and he wanted the best for Peruzzi.
 
He added, “I want everyone to shine, but if you disrespect me, I have the power to bring you down. We agreed I would get royalties from all the songs written by Peruzzi and get paid periodically. It was a verbal agreement; for us to meet and put everything into a paper agreement, they are pretending to be busy.
 
“I am just being tactical about the whole issue; they have cheated me. Though I am aware that Davido always gets away with things, I know how to deal with them. I plan to settle things without attracting any drama, but if Davido wants to take me for granted, I will expose them. For all the songs they have released, I have original copies and I can drop them if I desire to. I also have screenshots of my conversation with Davido that can implicate him.”

“We have so far recovered seven corpses, while the search for the two remaining corpses is still in progress,” Missal said.
 
State NYSC Coordinator, Mrs. Florence Yaakugh, also confirmed the incident, which she described as “most unfortunate.”
 
Yaakugh also confirmed that seven bodies have been recovered, while the search for the other two bodies was still ongoing by the locals in collaboration with security agencies and the NYSC.
 
“It’s a very sad development and we would soon have the identity of all the corps members involved in the accident and make such information known appropriately.
 
“We have very sketchy information indicating that about nine of our corps members drowned in Gashaka yesterday.

“So far, seven bodies have been recovered and we are working with relevant persons to recover the rest of the bodies and to identify them.

“This is a very sad development and the entire NYSC family in Taraba State is already thrown into deep mourning,” she said.

Ebonyi Senator, 14 Others Dump PDP For APC


 
The senator representing Ebonyi South Senatorial District in the National Assembly, Sonni Ogbuoji, and an ex-Minister of State for Power and Steel, Goddy Ogbaga and 13 others on Saturday defected from the Peoples Democratic Party to the All Progressives Congress.

The defectors announced their defection during a rally organised by the state chapter of the APC in honour of President Muhammadu Buhari and the party’s National Chairman, Adams Oshiomhole.

Addressing the defectors and other party members at the rally held in Abakaliki, Oshiomhole commended Ogbuoji and other defectors for what he described as their bold initiative to leave the PDP for the APC.


He said, “We now have an elected senator, Chief Sonni Ogbuoji, who has decided that the PDP’s umbrella is shredded that it can no longer protect any one. He has now joined the progressives.

“He has watched the determination of the APC-led Federal Government to flush out all crises inflicted on the country by the immediate past administration of the PDP.”

He also urged party supporters to obtain their Permanent Voter Cards, saying it was the weapon for the actualisation of total victory of the APC in the 2019 general elections.

Run For Your Life If Your Husband Is A Wife Beater, Popular Screen Goddess, Nnenna


Nollywood actress, Yinka Olukunga popularly known as Nnenna following her lead role in Wale Adenuga’s production, “Nnenna and Friends”, has advised women not to remain in a marriage where they are turned into a punching bag.

The actress gave the advice, while in a recent chat with NollyNow. The light- skinned mother of a set of twins, said while she would not advice any woman to divorce her husband, she, however, would not tolerate a situation where the latter is involved in wife battering.

Responding to question on why celebrity marriages are crashing in Nigeria, the actress who got married to her beau in 2014, stated that no woman would want to go for divorce after marriage.

According to her, “ When it happens, I’m sure it’s because there are some irreconcilable differences. It’s just for you to self-guard your own marriage and ensure that nobody tampers with your home. For me, if your husband is not a wife beater, you can stay back and see how you can work things out with him. But if he’s involved in wife battering, that is the one I wouldn’t tolerate.

 I wouldn’t advice any woman to remain in that marriage. No one is perfect in marriage. But if you can survive the first five years of your marriage, you should be able to pull through.”

Yinka Olukunga got married to her hubby, Rotimi in Decembler, 2014 and the lovely couple are blessed with adorable twin girls. The pretty actress made her debut in the Wale Adenuga Production’s Super-story TV series as Nnenna. Ten years down the line, the actress, model and singer has become a household name among kids and teenagers.
