Nigeria's Free National Emergency No Is 112 And It Works!

The Nigerian Television Authority-NTA made the announcement yesterday on twitter. Even I wasn't aware of the number before now. I tried it and it works. Please spread the word.

Nigerians, please pray! Parents of 'the kidnapped Sisters' cry out!

Seven days after some gunmen kidnapped two sisters from their residence in Karmo, Abuja, family members say the kidnappers are still insisting on collecting N150m ransom to release the ladies.

 

A relative, Mr. Amade Opaluwa, said the family had not left a stone unturned to make sure that the victims return home safe and sound, but added that the kidnappers seemed unwilling to negotiate the ransom.

Amade, who is an uncle to the abducted sisters, told PUNCH on Sunday that the kidnappers were becoming impatient and harsh in their discussions with the family.

He said, “The kidnappers have become very harsh lately in their conversations with the family. They are still insisting on the N150m ransom. Unfortunately, they do not allow us to talk to the girls. And also, we are not able to call them on the telephones, only they can call us.”

He called on Nigerians to intensify prayers on behalf of the family for the safe release of their daughters, adding that the family was also relying on God’s intervention.

“I use this opportunity to appeal to all Nigerians to help us with prayer. What we need is constant prayers for the safe release of our sisters. Everybody is getting increasingly worried,” Amade said.

The two sisters, Ejura and Unekwu Opaluwa, who are 23 and 19 years respectively, were kidnapped in the evening of Sunday, June 8.

The victims’ father, Samson, is a director of the Federal Ministry of Work.

The suspected gunmen had made away with the two ladies after they had raided the entire house and dispossessed the family of their valuables.

The attackers were said to have left with the two girls when they did not get as much money as they expected. The family had reported the case at the Life Camp Police Division in Abuja.

When contacted, the Abuja Police Public Relations Officer, Altine Daniel, said the police were still going on with their investigations.

“Like I told you, we are still working on it. And if there are any updates, we will let you know,” she said.

Rivers State Government Disclosed Duncan Mighty’s N50m Claim is false

Port Harcourt based artiste, Duncan Mighty, may be in for a big trouble following his allegations that his state governor, Rotimi Amaechi, is indebted to him to the tune of N50million. He made this claim recently in an open letter that went viral on the internet.

According to Duncan, the Rivers State governor owed him the said amount for a Celebrity Youth Endorsement Concert he was contracted to do in Port Harcourt, which eventually took place on the 30th of March, 2011. He said he was given 10 million naira through the then secretary to the state government, Senator Magnus Abe and that the governor personally promised to give him a balance of N50m.

The whole situation may have become embarrassing to the state Commissioner for Information, Ibim Semenitari, who disclosed that the allegations are false, noting that nothing of such existed.

The Commissioner challenged the media to investigate the artiste and verify when he was contracted; when it was executed and who contracted him?

"It is unfortunate when some people imagine that they have attained a status that enables them blackmail others, tell blatant lies and get away with it. Without joining issues with Duncan Mighty, I would suggest that you double check on his antecedents and his friendships,” the representative of the Rivers State government said.

'Election Gifts Can Be Termed As Bribery and Corruption'........Omotola Jalade

Sharing of gifts items at Election campaign is no longer news but now becoming a tradition to buy the hearts of citizens.

Is this to say the hearts of the citizens can be bought with just a gift? Where is our stand as citizens of Nigeria? This is not condemning any electoral campaign whatsoever, but trying to win the heart of a citizen with a bag of rice like the picture above. Or how best can we describe this?

Recently, people lined up to receive their bags of rice at different electoral campaigns of different parties’. Some who received the rice from both parties seem very happy and flaunted it everywhere. While some others still criticized that the rice PDP gave out was better than APC rice. Funny though.

Nollywood actress Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde didn’t find this funny as she describes such act of distributing things at election campaigns, bribery and corruption.

Here is what she wrote on her twitter handle on seeing the way rice where been distributed to people. “Isn't sharing of things during elections by political parties, bribery and corruption/manipulation? Why is this not a crime under the law?” she wrote.

Ozo Titled Igbo Man Disowns First Son, Chidi Okam, In a National Newspaper

A Nigerian titled man, Ozo Oswald Dokwe Okam, disowned his son, Ozo Chidi Okam, on one of the pages of a national newspaper. The announcement comes complete with the son's smiling picture from when he took his own titled. The disgruntled dad did not state why he is cutting off his son from his life, but it must have been something very serious indeed. The father stated;

"I will not want him to serve me when I am dead since  he did not serve me in my life time. He should return all my certificate of occupancy and other valuable documents in his possession to me and be satisfied with the things I willed to him in my will.

He should no longer act on my behalf whether alive or dead and should henceforth be fully responsible for all his actions and deeds. Above all, he should not participate or interfere in my burial in accordance with Christian rites."

If the son is still in the father's will, that means there is still some connection. But I wonder what one has to do to be disowned? Do you imagine you can ever disown your own child?
