Offa robbery: Court summons Saraki over fresh criminal complaint

The last has not been heard about the Offa bank robbery in which the senate president Bukola Saraki, has been implicated in.

Yesterday Sptember 17th, a Grade I Area Court in Aco Estate, Lugbe, Abuja, ordered the Inspector-General of Police, Mr. Ibrahim Idris, to serve a summons on the Senate President to compel him to face a criminal complaint initiated against him by an Abuja based lawyer and Humanrights activist, Oluwatosin Ojaomo,  private lawyer in respect of the bloody bank robbery.

Recall that in April this year, a coordinated bank robbery by a gang in Offa, Kwara state, left over 20 persons dead.  Some of the key suspects arrested in connection with the robbery, have confessed to being the political thugs of Saraki.

They alleged that the weapons used during the attack were provided by Saraki for political harrassment but that they converted the arms for robbery.

According to Punch, the criminal complaint marked, CR/196/2018, was said to have been initiated by Ojaomo under Section 89(5) of the Administration of Criminal Justice Act, 2015. According to Ojaomo, Saraki has refused to honor police invitation over the Offa bank robbery and his action is stalling investigation into the matter. Ojaomo approached the court to order the police to issue fresh summon on Saraki. Ojaomo said Saraki's act of not honoring police invitation on the matter is an offence punishable under Section 136 and 149 of the Penal Code Law.

The judge handling the case at the Grade 1 Area Court, Aco Estate, Lugbe, Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, Abdullahi Garuba Ogbede, had, on September 10 this year, ordered the issuance of a summons on Idris following Saraki’s absence from court.

On Monday, the complainant’s lawyer, E. S. Marcus, said he was informed by a Deputy Superintendent of Police in the Legal Unit of the Nigeria Police Force Headquarters in Abuja, identified as Mahmoud, that the IGP had directed the legal unit to ensure the prompt service of the court papers on Saraki before the next hearing date of October 3, 2018.

“The defendant is not in court. At the last date, the court issued a witness summons on the IGP to come and show cause why the police failed to effect service of the criminal summons, warrant of arrest and other processes on the defendant. The witness summons was served on the Nigeria Police Force by the court’s registry. However, we received a call from DSP Mahmoud of the Legal Department of the Nigeria Police Force headquarters, that the matter has been assigned by the IGP to a particular unit of the NPF to effect the service of the summons on the defendant and arrest him.”

Marcus explained in court on Monday that his client, who was supposed to bear the responsibility of serving Saraki with the complaint, had to resort to seeking the IGP’s involvement in accordance with Section 122 of the ACJA, when it became difficult for him to serve the Senate President.

According to the lawyer, the Inspector-General of Police is required, under the law, to either produce the defendant in court or attend court to explain why the defendant was absent.

He then applied to the court to grant a short adjournment to enable the police to serve the processes on Saraki.

The judge, Ogbede, granted Marcus’ request and adjourned the case till October 3.

The criminal complaint against the Senate President read

“Criminal complaint brought pursuant to Section 89(5) of the Administration of Criminal Justice Act (ACJA) 2015. Please, cause a summons for a direct criminal complaint on the defendant on the following terms:

“That you, Dr Bukola Saraki, on or about the 24th day of July, 2018 within the jurisdiction of this honourable court, did refuse to honour the invitation of the Inspector-General of the Nigeria Police Force to report at the police headquarters in FCT, Abuja to answer to  an allegation involving the investigation of  some criminal suspects involved in a case which the Nigeria Police Force is currently investigating, thereby obstructing a criminal investigation and disobeying a public officer carrying out a lawful  responsibility. You thereby committed an offence punishable under Section 136 and 149 of the Penal Code Law, whereas, the complainant is praying the court to charge the defendant accordingly.”

This woman's reaction after she caught her husband with another woman is going viral (video)

A viral video shows a woman's reaction when she caught her husband at a restaurant with another woman.

In the video, the wife is seen scolding her husband in a language believed to be Spanish. As she scolded him, she got even more enraged and slapped him across the face. Waiters stepped in and held her but she continued her tirade while her husband listened and the woman he was with bowed her head in apparent embarrassment.

After a while, when the waiters had relaxed their grip, the scorned wife manages to grab a handful of the woman's hair and begins pulling it while everyone around, including her cheating husband, tried to free the woman's hair from her grip.

The woman is heard crying at this point. Eventually, they managed to release her hair and she stood up and walked out of the restaurant. The husband also stood up and tried leaving with her while waiters held his wife away from them.

''We have moved 10m Nigerians out of poverty''- FG

Minister of Budget and National Planning, Sen. Udoma Udo Udoma, has said that the Buhari-led government has moved 10 million Nigerians out of poverty. Udoma stated this while speaking on arrangements for the 24th Nigerian Economic Summit (NES#24) held at the conference room of the ministry in Abuja today Tuesday September 18th.

That objective has been behind many Government programmes, particularly the Social Investment Programme. Under this programme, we have empowered millions of Nigerian youths, women and children. To combat hunger and achieve food security, we have raised capital provisions for agriculture from N8.8billion in 2015 to N149.2billion in the 2018 budget.

'He was dancing skelewu while the debate was going on' - Oshiomhole mocks Adeleke for failing to attend Osun debate (video)

The National Chairman of APC, Adams Oshiomhole has mocked the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Ademola Adeleke, for failing to show up for the Osun governorship debate organised by Channels Television on Sunday.  

Oshiomhole spoke about Adeleke’s absence at the debate during the mega rally the APC held in Osogbo, the Osun State capital, for Gboyega Oyetola, the party’s candidate for the election.  

He said, “I understand that there was this debate that was held a few days ago and one of the aspirants was dancing skelewu while the debate was going on.

When they asked him, he said his motor broke down. May the government of Osun State never break down. If it hasn’t broken down in Aregbesola’s time, it cannot break down in Oyetola’s time.”

His comments come some days after Mr Adeleke failed to show up for the two-hour debate. Adeleke had been invited to join four other candidates for the debate. The four other candidates are Moshood Adeoti of the Action Democratic Party (ADP); Iyiola Omisore of the Social Democratic Party (SDP), Fatai Akinbade of the African Democratic Congress (ADC); and Gboyega Oyetola of the APC.

'Nigerians voted Buhari but cabal is ruling them'' - Saraki

Senate President, Bukola Saraki, has once again condemned the leadership style of President Buhari.

While speaking with PDP delegates in Oyo state yesterday September 18th, Saraki who has since declared his intention to run for president on the platform of the PDP in 2019, said Nigerians who voted President Buhari in 2015 had been shortchanged as it was a few people who constitute themselves as a cabal, are the ones running the afairs of the country.

''The President we have now does not understand leadership. We have endured him for more than three years but it is the same thing. Nigerians voted for him (Buhari) but a cabal is ruling the country. That is not what democracy means. This time, let us look for who can do it. In Nigeria today, we do not have unity. What we need in the present world is a digital President. When your president sits with world presidents, he should be able to understand what they are saying. That is why presidents who have visited the country did not stay more than a few hours. But when they know that their host understands them, they will stay longer and explore investment opportunities in Nigeria.” he said

Kemi Adeosun's resignation letter

Below is the full text of Mrs Adeosun’s resignation letter.

His Excellency
Muhammadu Buhari 
President, Federal Republic of Nigeria 
State House
Aso Villa
Abuja

Dear Excellency,

Let me commence by thanking you profusely for the honour and privilege of serving under your inspirational leadership. It has been a truly rewarding experience to learn from you and to observe at close quarters your integrity and sense of duty.

I have, today, become privy to the findings of the investigation into the allegation made in an online medium that the Certificate of Exemption from National Youth Service Corp (NYSC) that I had presented was not genuine. This has come as a shock to me and I believe that in line with this administration’s focus on integrity, I must do the honourable thing and resign.

Your Excellency, kindly permit me to outline some of the background to this matter. I was born and raised in the United Kingdom, indeed my parental family home remains in London. My visits to Nigeria up until the age of thirty-four (34) were holidays, with visas obtained in my UK passport. I obtained my first Nigerian passport at the age of thirty-four (34) and when I relocated there was debate as to whether NYSC Law applied to me. Upon enquiry as to my status relating to NYSC, I was informed that due to my residency history and having exceeded the age of thirty (30), I was exempted from the requirement to serve. Until recent events, that remained my understanding.

On the basis of that advice and with the guidance and assistance of those, I thought were trusted associates, NYSC were approached for documentary proof of status. I then received the certificate in question. Having never worked in NYSC, visited the premises, been privy to nor familiar with their operations, I had no reason to suspect that the certificate was anything but genuine. Indeed, I presented that certificate at the 2011 Ogun State House of Assembly and in 2015 for Directorate of State Services (DSS) Clearance as well as to the National Assembly for screening. Be that as it may, as someone totally committed to a culture of probity and accountability I have decided to resign with effect from Friday, 14th September, 2018.

Your Excellency, It has been an exceptional privilege to have served our nation under your leadership and to have played a role in steering our economy at a very challenging time. I am proud that Nigeria has brought discipline into its finances, has identified and is pursuing a path to long term sustainable growth that will unlock the potential in this great economy. Under your leadership, Nigeria was able to exit recession and has now started to lay the foundations for lasting growth and wealth creation. Repositioning this huge economy is not a short term task and there are no short cuts, indeed there are tough decisions still to be made but I have no doubt that your focus on infrastructural investment, revenue mobilisation and value for money in public expenditure will deliver growth, wealth and opportunity for all Nigerians.

I thank His Excellency, the Vice President and my colleagues in the Federal Executive Council for the huge pleasure and honour of working with them. I also thank most specially, the team in the ‘Finance Family’ of advisers and heads of agencies under the Ministry of Finance. Your Excellency, this group of committed Nigerians represent a range of backgrounds, ethnicities and ages. They have worked well above and beyond the call of duty to support me in the tasks assigned. The diversity in my team and their ability to work cohesively to deliver reforms, convinces me that Nigeria has the human capital required to succeed.

Your Excellency, let me conclude by commending your patience and support, during the long search for the truth in this matter. I thank you again for giving me the honour of serving under your leadership, it is a rare privilege, which I do not take for granted. As a Nigerian and committed progressive, I appreciate you for your dogged commitment to improving this nation.

Please be assured, as always, of my highest regards and best wishes.

Kemi Adeosun (Mrs)

Donald Trump blasted for making a fist pump gesture on arriving 9/11 memorial

US President Donald Trump has been criticized for making a bizarre double fist pump gesture as he arrived at a 9/11 memorial service. 

Trump was pictured grimacing as he made the triumphant gesture shortly after touching down in Shankville, Pennsylvania, near where United Flight 93 crashed after it was hijacked by four Al_Qaeda terrorists on board, as part of the tragic September 11 attacks. 

Stephanie Tittle blasted Trump for the signal, tweeting: This is not an exclamation point day. This is not a fist pump day. You sully the solemnity of this day. History will not be kind to you. 

"But we will #NeverForget those who lost their lives and those who gave so much to help so many on that day, and the days that came after."

ML Cliff wrote: "Trump does fist pump en-route to #Shanksville Memorial Ceremony – This shines a spotlight on @realDonaldTrump INABILITY to feel #empathy for another person’s loss; and his avoidance of #NYC #September11th memorial reflects his inability to admit any weakness #Trump."

 Jim Harris also reacted, writing: "So the clueless, soulless phony-in-chief arrives on hallowed ground, attempting to portray a decent human being, and fails again. He defiles every space he inhabits. To those who lost loved ones on 9/11, we wish you peace and love."

Earlier on Tuesday, Trump also raised eyebrows with a tweet commemorating the anniversary. 

He wrote: "17 years since September 11th!"

But people felt the tweet was too insensitive and could have been better worded, especially coming from a President.
