Coalition accuses military of killing South East youths

Coalition of South East Youth Leaders (COSEYL) has accused the military of extra judicial killings of youths in the zone. The accusation was contained in a statement issued yesterday by the President-General, Goodluck Ibem, and Secretary-General, Kanice Igwe.

It cited the alleged shooting to death of Owerri-based businessman, Noel Chigbu, by a soldier at a checkpoint in Amakohia, Owerri, on Friday, April 30, 2021 by 10p.m., among other killings.

The statement read in part: “COSEYL, the umbrella body of all youth organisations in the South East geopolitical zone, is very enraged over the unlawful, barbaric, wicked and extra-judicial killing of a businessman, Mr. Noel Chigbu, aged 39 years, by the military at Amakohia junction, Owerri, Imo State for allegedly violating their checkpoint rule. Another is the unlawful killing of a first-year student, Divine Nwaneri, at a military checkpoint close to Imo Governor’s office.“These killings and more that happened in recent times are tangible proof that the military are on a secret mission to exterminate Igbo youths in the South East. The killing of unarmed agitators and pampering of Boko Haram terrorists is a clear testament that Ndigbo have been marked for extinction by the Nigerian military.”

It wondered why the soldiers paid with tax-payers money would kill kill an innocent youth on the flimsy excuse of violating checkpoint rules. COSEYL stated: “This is absolute madness and it must stop forthwith.

“The truth is, Noel Chigbu was killed by the soldiers for refusing to give them ‘bribe’. The soldiers now make it mandatory that anyone that passes on the road must ‘bribe’ the soldiers, or their employed civilians who disguise as plantain chips sellers, or risk being killed because they are on a mandate to exterminate Igbo youths.”

Urging the soldiers to desist from harassing the Igbo people, the coalition added: “The impunity with which soldiers and other security operatives deal with Igbo youths calls for serious concern. This is total harassment of Ndigbo and we reject it in its entirety.

“Igbo youths are being arrested by the army who brand them unknown gunmen and kill them. How do they know that they are unknown gunmen?”It called on governors, lawmakers and other political office holders from the South East to speak up in defence of their people, who are being unlawfully killed daily without justifiable reasons.

“If our governors and other political office holders are keeping silent and all Igbo youths are killed, who will vote for them in the next elections?

“We, therefore, demand that the military must identify and hand over those soldiers involved in the unlawful killings of Chigbu, Nwaneri and others to the police for immediate prosecution,” it added.

Narrating the incident to Vanguard how it started, an eyewitness said: “On Thursday around 08: 15am, we started seeing some strange movements, that was when the soldiers were trying to locate the “unknown gunmen”. “Before you know it, from 1pm, we started hearing shootings and we saw it was between the unknown gunmen and the Soldiers. The firing last for more than an hour. “I saw about two of the soldiers vehicles taken away by the unknown gunmen. If you see these “unknown gunmen” they are powerful, armed to the fullest. The wore black and black and with white material around their neck and covering their back side down to their leg. “If you see them you will bow. These men are strong and they have weight. They faced the Army and the Army ran away.” Also, another eyewitness around the Nkwito junction in Orlu, said: “Thursday night the firing was much. All the vehicles of the unknown gunmen were collected from them. What I don’t know is if all the “unknown gunmen ” were killed. I am not close to counting all of them.

I was detained because of Nnamdi Kanu: Fr Mbaka

Rev Fr Ejike Mbaka has disclosed that his 24 hours ‘disappearance’ was an incarceration by the Enugu Catholic Bishop, Most Rev Callistus Onaga, whom he accused of conniving with others to detain him because he spoke favourably about the leader of the Indigenous people of Biafra, IPOB, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu. Mbaka said he was only released because the adoration faithful protested his unexplained disappeance.

Mbaka who spoke late on Wednesday at his adoration ground after regaining freedom, practically accused the authorities of the Enugu Catholic Diocese of Mastermind. He said he was kept incommunicado by the Bishop, whom he further alleged planned to keep him for 30 days. He said a lot of issues were presented against him after which the Church leadership, led by Bishop Calistus Onaga told him that he would remain indoors for one month, a period that would allow him pray and meditate over his activities. Mbaka said he requested to be allowed the opportunity to come and address his parishioners after which he would shut down, “but they said no. I also begged them to allow me send another priest to come and celebrate mass for you today, they said no,” he told the parishioners. He said Bishop Onaga upon seeing the protest over his predicament allowed him to go. Mbaka said the church was strong against him for blessing Nnamdi Kanu. “Are you the owner of my mouth? You can’t tell me who to bless? If you are not happy that I blessed someone, you have your own mouth, you can curse the person. “They didn’t treat me in a pastoral way and I was asking am I being punished for what? “They said it was a meeting, but even before I reached the Bishop’s house, the conclusion has already been made. What happened to me was like the day I was shot on the road.

“Unfortunately for them, even before the meeting, a woman was already going around bragging that the Bishop will call me for a meeting, and that I was going to leave my house here for 30 days, and that after the 30 days, I would be sent to Rome, and Adoration ministry will be closed. “In a time and cases like this, don’t give me a punishment that will cause troubles for us because I’m not alone.” Mbaka said that another thing presented to him was his recent criticism of President Muhammadu Buhari’s Government. “I cannot hate my brother because of some people whose hate is in their genes,” Mbaka said.

Protests rock Enugu following report of Father Mbaka allegedly missing, Ohanaeze Youth Congress gives FG 48 hours to ''produce him''

A mass protest has ensued in Enugu state following report of Father Ejike Mbaka allegedly missing. 

 

According to some social media users, the cleric’s whereabout is not known at the moment.
 

 

Ohanaeze Youth Congress has also given the federal government 48 hours to ''produce'' the Enugu-based Catholic priest who called for the President’s impeachment or resignation days ago over insecurity. 

 

The President-General of OYC, Mazi Okwu Nnabuike in a statement made available to Tribune on Wednesday May 5 said Mbaka was last seen on Tuesday May 4, and that efforts to locate him had failed.

 

Nnabuike said; 

 

“We have it on good authority that his aides have neither seen nor heard from him since Tuesday.

“Calls put to his mobile line have also remained unanswered; this has now prompted us to issue this alarm as we would not take it lightly should anything untoward happens to him.

“We are giving the Federal Government 48 hours to produce the priest, else they should be ready to face Igbo youths. They were dining and wining with him all along and now that he told the truth, they are no longer comfortable with him.

“Let nothing happen to Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka. It will not be in anybody’s interest."

Buhari govt looking for big trouble – Nigerians react to planned slash in civil servants’ salaries

President Muhammadu Buhari’s government has come under attack over plans to cut salaries of civil servants in Nigeria.

Minister of Finance, Zainab Ahmed on Tuesday said that President Buhari ordered the National Salaries, Incomes and Wages Commission to reduce the salaries of workers and employees of several agencies to save costs in order to help the government reduce the high cost of governance.

This did not go down well with Nigerians who slammed the government for inflicting more pains on the people despite the high cost of living.

Some Nigerians took to Twitter demanding that the government should begin by slashing of salaries from Senators, House of Reps and other expenses of top government officials.

Here are some comments gathered by DAILY POST from Twitter:

@Franklinbayo “The common will still bear the brunt. Why start the slash from the NASS. Why must the ordinary people suffer while the govt officials feed fat. This is why we need to get it right come 2023.”

@NdibuezeMonday “This Government is the worst instead of cutting their own salary to help this nation. If all of them cut 50% of their salaries from president to Chancellor then we will become a developed country.”

@Seunade “Why e be say na civil servant’s de suffer,why not the senators,the house of reps,lg chairmen,councillor, governors salaries? Wetin civil servant’s no go see for this Nigeria?

@Irikefe12 “One of the characteristics of a clueless government, when the 30k minimum wages is not enough, but theirs almost 50m a month is not a problem.”

@Eye_hear_say, “Civil servants, though am not one,work for their pay packets. The salary cut should start from the National Assembly down to the Executive arm of govt. The financial burden has ran the country aground without any commensurate gains. Politics should have less pecuniary incentives.”

@Ekwe_nsu “One person is a former governor, house of assembly, local government chairman and currently a senator and he or she receive money every month from all this yet civil servants’ salary is the problem. This country is gone.”

@MonsieurOla “Buhari government no cut governors, ministers and himself salary; na civil workers deserve salary cut, just saying that we may think he has a brain in his head when it’s actually fufu that’s in there.”

@Josephyitnoe “These guys are begging Nigerians for wahala. Start with yourself and the National assembly, let it trickle down.”

@Khaycee_o “How do you cut down on people’s salaries when most of them can’t barely afford to pay their rent? What sort of thoughtless and brainless decision do these people make though.”

@LukmonBalogun5 “Leave the lower level and start from level 12 up to all politicians, if not you will striking matches on wet petroled Nigeria fabric.”

@Opeyemidevelop “Why can’t senators, Reps, Governors, and other political post shout start from themselves. We are in trouble under Buhari.”

@Iykogueri “Lead by example, start with ur own salary and allowance.”

@Theodorewintor “In other words He said the suffering of Nigerians is not enough.”

@Abdulbaki “What! Haaaa when things are now expensive, you still want to cut worker’s’ salary, I see.”

Having a big nose means a bigger penis, scientists say after measuring dozens

The new scientific study measured the size of 126 male corpses’ reproductive organs to see if there was any relation between the two. The researchers found a link between nose size and ‘stretched penile length’, meaning the length of the penis when pulled up vertically to replicate erection size.

According to the study, those with larger noses had a ‘stretched penile length’ of at least 5.3 inches (13.42cm) and those with smaller ones had a penis measuring 4.1 inches (10.37cm) when erect - meaning that a bigger nose typically meant a bigger penis.

Published in Basic and Clinical Andrology, scientists from the Kyoto Prefectural University of Medicine in Japan did not examine why this link exists, but instead focused on the connection between the dimensions of nose and penis sizes.

The researchers said: “The fact that nose size is related to stretched penile length indicates that penile length may not be determined by age, height or body weight but has already been determined before birth.”

The corpses were examined within three days of their death.

Japanese researchers recorded their height, weight, soft penis length, penile circumference, right and left testicular weights, as well as prostate weight.

Pulling the penis up vertically as far as it would go was done and measured in an effort to replicate the erect penile length.

Nose measurements studied the distance between a person’s eyes to where the nostril starts.

Doing so resulted in findings thThose with a sniffer 22 percent bigger, measuring 2.2 inches long, tended to have larger penises measuring 5.3 inches.

For those with noses in the middle of this range, 4.5 inches was found to be the average penis size.

The study did not find any links between nose size and how big a penis was when flaccid.

This was determined to be because of how efficient penises were at growing during an erection, as some are “growers” and others are “showers”.at men with noses smaller than 1.8 inches had penises up to 4.1 inches in length.

In their published study, the researchers write: “This study is the first to demonstrate the relationship between stretched penile length and nose size but is limited in Japanese male cadavers, and the reason why stretched penile length and nose size are related is still unclear.

“Therefore, we consider it an interesting subject to pursue from now on.”

Despite this, prior studies have determined that unborn baby’s exposure to androgens during their time in the womb can have an effect on penis length - showing that there is more research to be done on the topic.

Imo killing: HURIWA writes army, threatens to drag COAS to ICC

 

Following the alleged extrajudicial killings of young citizens of Imo State, the Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria, HURIWA, has written to the Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General Attahiru Ibrahim, threatening to drag him before the International Criminal Court, ICC in The Hague-Netherlands if the trend continues.

In a copy of the letter dated May 5 and made available to DAILY POST by its National Coordinator, Comrade Emmanuel Onwubiko on Wednesday, HURIWA alleged that the army chief had done nothing to stop the killings in the state.

HURIWA which cited several killings of innocent citizens in Imo by the Nigerian army, urged the COAS to arrest and prosecute soldiers involved in the incidents.

Part of the letter reads: “We write you this letter with the highest respect and it is our wishes that you succeed in your onerous task to govern the largest Army in Africa.

“This is to bring to your notice officially of the happenings in Imo State, South East of Nigeria in connection with the large presence of operatives of the Nigerian Army on an Internal Security Operation.

“We observe with serious concern that the operatives of the Nigerian Army sent on Internal Operation have been implicated in several illegal acts in violation of the RULES OF ENGAGEMENT to an extent that last week, we were forced to issue a media statement on these extra-legal killings of young citizens of Nigeria in Imo State by the operatives of the Nigerian Army that your good offices sent on an Internal military operation.

“Sadly, we hereby confirm to you that the situation has deteriorated.

“Individuals are arbitrarily arrested, harassed, physically maltreated and on some occasions some young persons have been killed by the operatives of the Army and this is the essence of doing this letter to your good self and offices to remind you of your constitutional duty to ensure that citizens are not illegally killed which offends section 33 (1) of the Nigerian Constitution.

“That section specifies as follows: “Every person has a right to life, and no one shall be deprived intentionally of his life, save in execution of the sentence of a court in respect of a criminal offence of which he has been found guilty in Nigeria.”

“We will endeavour to point out some of these cases including the dozens of reports we have received from persons whose fundamental rights as citizens guaranteed by chapter 4 of the Nigerian Constitution, are abused with reckless abandon by your men.

“Suffice it to say that we have on many occasions condemned any sorts of attacks by the yet to be known attackers targeting the military and Police operatives. As a credible civil society stakeholder in the Country, we are working to promote greater dialogues between the military and the civilians for the betterment of the society.

“We pray that you immediately order the arrest and prosecution of those army operatives so described, so that they are subjected to the due process of the law internally.

“Failure to so subject these alleged killers to the due process of the law will leave us with no option but to approach the International Criminal Court in The Hague, Netherlands to demand that the offenders and the head of the Nigerian Army be prosecuted for crimes against humanity”.
