How to naturally enlarge your penis: Eating THIS food could increase length
A Nigerian woman describes how, three weeks after their wedding, her husband left for Lagos and never came back.
Three weeks after their court wedding in 2019, Chinenye Anyanwu, a Nigerian woman, described how her newlywed pleasure was cut short when her spouse disappeared without a trace.
Chinenye, who shared her story in a Facebook post on Tuesday, August 27, 2024, said that her runaway husband, who is suspected to be a scammer, made away with everything he could lay hands on.
According to her, Olumide left for Lagos on what was supposed to be a one week trip but never returned till date.
She said two weeks into the trip, she informed Olumide that she was pregnant but he wasn't thrilled about the idea of being a father.
Unknown to her, she was in for more shock.
In what she described as the “biggest scam in history,” she said it turned out that Olumide's ‘family members who came to the wedding weren't real."
She alleged that they were either ‘hired, tricked to attend or play roles at the wedding.’
“On 2nd August 2019, I walked into a marriage registry and exchanged marital vows with a man who legally became my husband after that exercise. Everything was fine. Everyone was happy for us,” she wrote.
On 27th August, exactly this day 5 years ago. Just 3 weeks after our marriage, he went on a trip to Lagos. His trip was supposed to be just one week but guess what, he hasn't returned till date. What happened? So much.
2 weeks after he left I found out I was 2 weeks pregnant. The excitement, ohhhhhh. But he didn't seem excited, why? I guess pregnancy wasn't part of his plans.
One month later, the biggest scam in history was discovered. You'll get to know that the only real people at my wedding were people from my side (people who came on my account). Everyone that came for and on behalf of my husband were either hired, manipulated or tricked to attend or play roles at the wedding including his uncle and the wife, the food vendor, photographer etc.
More shocks coming. All his family members I've spoken with while the relationship and marriage lasted nko? They were all part of his mission. Their numbers haven't gone through till date. My husband made away with everything he could lay hands on. Obviously his reason for the marriage was to get access to them. Virtuous woman don't hide her money and assets from her husband right?
Days turned to weeks, then to months. I accepted my reality, took responsibility for the mistakes that I made myself and determined to make things right for me and my then unborn child. Sounds like a movie scene right? Well, that's someone's reality but this is not the main point of this post. Here's the point.
My marriage lasted just 3 weeks but it's been 5 years of trying to fix the damages caused by that mistake. It's been 5 years of trying so hard to rebuild everything that was broken down by reason of that marriage error; mental, spiritual, career, financial, emotional etc.
That one error affected practically everything, every other area of my life. Every now and then I ask myself "how did I let this happen under my watch?".
Everyone thinks you are strong and you are fine. But that's not the whole truth. Few days ago my son woke up and saw me and said "Mummy you are crying again".
It broke me but I couldn't help it. The last two months have been hell in my head, mind and body. I took stock of the past five years of my life and it seems God is punishing me for making one mistake.
All my efforts to fix things, get back to my normal life in all aspects hasn't yielded positive in my assessment. It's like I get to 70% progress then back to 20%. It's just not working. It's more like a shadow than it's real. It's like I don't belong here anymore, like I am just fading away yet shining from the outer. For just one mistake? Isn't this two much consequence?
I have seen people make countless marriage mistakes/errors yet get back to their normal. Yet the holy book says God is not partial. I don't understand it anymore. It's not making any sense to me again. Make it make sense to me God!
The only crime I committed was trusting and committing to a man I didn't know but thought I knew and didn't take time to know. I didn't keell anyone. I didn't break the law of the land so why am I in jail? Why is my punishment this long and harsh?
The worst is that you don't even have anyone to talk to because they don't seem to understand. To them you are a strong woman and everything is either fine or you can handle everything.
Olumide, I have never cursed you in the past five years and for a reason I'll never do that. May the universe judge between you and I accordingly. Life indeed is not fair. Dear God, I think it is enough. It is.

How gunmen killed the son of the Lagos monarch
The Lagos State Police Command has confirmed the killing of Demola, the first son of Ojomu of Ajiran land, Tijani Akinloye.
PUNCH Metro gathered that the killing which took place on Monday along Chevron Drive, Lekki area of Lagos State created an atmosphere of fear in the community following which the area became deserted.
A notice sent to punch from the management of an estate in the community urged residents to avoid the Chevron, Agungi, and Ajiran areas.
The statement read, “This is to notify all residents that Ajiran (Agungi) king’s son was assassinated today along Chevron Drive (close to Ebeano Supermarket) this morning.
“We therefore plead to our esteemed residents to avoid the Chevron area, Agungi and Ajiran for now for their safety.”
A resident, Bukunmi Folahanmi, told our correspondent that she would not be going to work on Tuesday following the incident.
She said, “It’s daylight assassination. I am not going to work again till like Wednesday. Although they (have) deployed some vigilante guys around the area.”
While confirming the incident to our correspondent, the Lagos Police Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, said the killing occurred around 12:30 pm.
According to him, a distress call was received at the police station in the area that the man “later identified as Demola Akinloye, aged 50 years, was attacked along Chevron Drive, Lekki.”
He said the attack took place while the deceased was driving in his black Toyota Corolla near Bourdillon Court Estate gate.
He revealed that “four armed men driving in a white minibus shot and stabbed him to death.
“The scene had been visited, one expended cartridge was recovered while the corpse had been moved to a morgue, in Ajah, Lagos State for preservation and autopsy.”
He added that the case would be transferred to the State Criminal Investigation Department, Yaba, for further investigation.
A resident in the community who craved anonymity due to the sensitive nature of the incident said the gunmen deliberately hit the deceased’s vehicle and attacked him when he stepped out to assess the damage to his car.
“When the bus hit his vehicle, it was at the point of coming out to check his car that the gunmen attacked him. This made people who were present at the scene to run for cover. The gunmen left him bleeding on the spot after the attack,” the resident disclosed.
Another source who spoke with our correspondent from the area said he suspected the attack was carried out by those “eyeing the throne.” The claim cannot be independently verified by PUNCH Metro.
“He is the heir to the throne. The news around the community is that the act was carried out by those eyeing the throne, even though his father is still alive,” the source who craved anonymity due to the sensitive nature of the incident said.
A member of the family who does not want his name in print as he was not authorised to speak on the matter said the family had been thrown into mourning due to the incident.
He said, “We were shocked to receive the news of the incident. This was a child the father loved so dearly and pampered. He also had a striking semblance with him. If you see him, then you have seen the king. The mood in the palace now is not okay at all. Both the king and members of the family have stopped attending to people for now.”

News Flash: Kidnappers Launch Another Attack in Kubwa, Abuja, Seize Two Sisters, and Request N30 Million Ransom
This development occurs just a week after residents of the Chikakore community expressed their grievances to the office of FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike. They raised concerns about the deplorable condition of the main road connecting their community, attributing it as a contributing factor to the recurrent cases of kidnapping in the area.
Two teenage sisters have been kidnapped by gunmen suspected to be bandits at Guita community, Chikakore in Kubwa, Bwari Area Council of the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.
It was gathered on Wednesday that the kidnappers returned last Sunday around 11:25pm despite the patrol of military men and policemen in the area.
It was learnt that the gunmen numbering six, made away the girls, who were said to be 16 and 14 years old through the forests and hills in the area.
A police source in the area, who confirmed their kidnap to SaharaReporters on Wednesday, said the attackers took three of a man's children, two girls, and one boy, but they went away with two girls and sent back one (the boy) from the bush.
He was sent to go and tell their father to prepare N30million as the ransom.
The source said, “The gunmen changed their approach when they came; they didn’t shoot like before but forced themselves inside. While they were forcing themselves inside, the owner of the house (a Calabar man) ran to the vigilante’s office, then, he ran to the commander’s house before the commander could call another person, and rush to his house, the gunmen were already gone.
"It was when they were going, they started shooting, unlike before that they would shoot before the operation and till the end.
"They took three of his children, two girls, and one boy, but they went away with two and sent back one (the boy) from the bush that he should go and tell their father to prepare 30million naira for their ransom.
"When they were taken, the two girls (16 and 14 years) one of the girls was wearing a nightgown, and the mother tried to plead with the gunmen to let her wear something for the cold, but instead they beat up the mother. She had no option but to just let the girls go the way they were under the cold.
"Before the police came to the scene, they were already gone. Some of the vigilantes later traced them to the railway line, to the rocks but there was no trace anymore.
"The man that his daughters were kidnapped is a front liner security payment and he has made several donations to the community."
However, Josephine Adeh, FCT police spokesperson, when contacted by SaharaReporters, promised to get the details and to revert.

The Court of Appeal criticizes INEC, accusing it of being partisan
The Court of Appeal sitting in Abuja berated the Independent National Electoral Commissioner, INEC, while accusing it of being partisan.
The appellate court on Friday, Nov. 24, slammed the Commission for appearing before it to act in favor of a party in an election dispute, by disowning documents that it not only issued, but also duly certified.
The court lamented that the electoral body has continued to “dance naked in the market,” even though it was meant to assume a neutral stand in election litigations.
“The INEC as an institution should be reminded of its role in an election; to be an unbiased umpire between parties.
“It should stop behaving irresponsibly, having in mind that its duty to conduct election has a direct bearing on peace and well-being of the country.
“The role of INEC in election dispute should be limited to the tendering of all the documents used in an election and explaining what they were used for and how they were obtained.
“INEC should stop dancing naked in the market, pretending that no one is seeing its nakedness and its dancing steps,” the court stated while delivering judgement in a Bauchi State House of Assembly election appeal.
The lead judgement of a three-member panel of the court was delivered by Justice K. I. Amadi.
The panel, in its unanimous decision, nullified the election of the Speaker of the Bauchi State House of Assembly, Abubakar Suleiman, who was earlier declared the winner of Ningi Central Constituency in the state, by INEC.
The court held that evidence before it established that the election was inconclusive.
Aside from voiding the Certificate of Return that was issued to Suleiman who contested on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, the appellate court directed INEC to conduct a supplementary poll in 10 polling units in the state, within 90 days.
The court further awarded a cost of N500, 000 against INEC.
The judgement followed an appeal that was brought before the court by the candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Khalid Abdulmalik-Ningi.
INEC had declared that Suleiman of the PDP polled a total of 16, 866 votes to defeat his closest rival, Abdulmalik-Ningi of the APC, who scored 15, 065 votes in the election that held on March 18.
However, dissatisfied with the outcome of the election, the APC candidate lodged a petition before the State Assembly Election Petition Tribunal.
The petitioner, among other things, alleged that results of the election were cancelled due to over-voting or corrupt practices.
INEC, a Respondent in the matter, denied the claim that there was over-voting, but failed to produce any witness before the tribunal. Yet, the tribunal dismissed the petition.
The Appeal Court faulted the decision of tribunal and noted that the Appellant brought nine witnesses that testified in respect of the various polling units and also tendered certified copies of INEC documents to support his case.
It held that going by Section 137 of the Electoral Act 2022, the certified INEC documents were enough to sustain the allegation that the election was not conducted in compliance with provisions of the law.
The court wondered why INEC denied that results of the election were cancelled in some polling units, when its officials established the same fact in Forms EC 40G that they signed and submitted to it.
Nigerian Petroleum Company, NNPCL Says Oil Importation To Stop By December 2024 As Local Refineries Resume
The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) has declared that it would end the importation of refined petroleum products by December 2024, while noting that Nigerian refineries would be operational by then.
The NNPCL on Thursday added that it projected the national oil firm would grow its revenue to N4.5trillion at the end of 2023 and the rehabilitation of the Port Harcourt Refining Company would be completed by December this year.
The Group Chief Officer of the NNPCL, Mele Kyari, disclosed this when he led officials of the company to a meeting with the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Tajudeen Abbas, where the lawmaker called for the privatization of Nigeria’s refineries.
Also, oil marketers, on Thursday, confirmed the readiness of the Port Harcourt refinery, as they stated that its operations, which could begin in January 2024, would lead to a considerable drop in the prices of refined petroleum products.
At the meeting in Abuja, Kyari declared that Nigeria was on track to stop the importation of refined petroleum products in 2024 and would emerge as a net exporter of the commodities in the same year.
He also provided explanations on the commencement of operations of the Port Harcourt, Warri, and Kaduna refineries
The company’s helmsman said all refineries would become fully operational, adding that the country would become a net exporter of petroleum products by the end of 2024.
He blamed the petroleum subsidy for inactive refineries in Nigeria over the years, stressing that the removal of the subsidy was already attracting a lot of private-sector investments.
Kyari stated, “I can confirm to you that by the end of December this year, we will start the Port Harcourt refinery; early in the first quarter of 2024, we will start the Warri refinery and by the end of 2024, Kaduna refinery will come into operation.
“This is the commitment we are giving today and you can hold us accountable for this. In 2024, many of the initiatives including the rehabilitation of our refineries and also the efforts of small-scale refineries, and the upcoming Dangote refinery, will make Nigeria a net exporter of petroleum products in 2024.
“We will no longer be talking about fuel importation by the end of 2024. I am very optimistic that this will crystallize,” he said.
Kyari pledged that by the end of 2023, the expected government revenue from the company would hit N4.5tn, as NNPCL now returns value to shareholders in compliance with the Petroleum Industry Act.

Man arraigned over attempt to behead his brother with cutlass in Ondo
The Ondo State Police have arraigned a 33-year-old man, Olulayo Moroloye, before an Akure Magistrate Court, over an alleged attempt to kill his brother, Daniel Moroloye, with a cutlass.
The defendant, whose address was not provided, is being tried for attempted murder and assault occasioning grievous bodily harm.
Olulayo was alleged to have carried out the act on October 10, 2023, at about 9:pm at Kidimo Camp, Ode-Irele.
According to the police prosecutor, Folashade Adeyemi, the defendant attempted to kill Daniel, with a cutlass on the farm.
Adeyemi said Olulayo attacked his brother on his left hand, and thereby inflicted deep injury on him.
According to the prosecutor, the offences contravened Sections 320 and 332(1) of the Criminal Laws of Ondo State.
However, the defendant’s plea was not taken by the court.
The prosecutor urged the court to remand the defendant to Olokuta Correctional Centre pending advice from the office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP).
Lawyer to the defendant, Israel Tiwo, prayed for an adjournment to enable him file a counter affidavit to the application.
Meanwhile, the State Commissioner of Police, CP Abiodun Asabi, who paraded Moroloye along with other suspects last month, said he claimed that his brother accused him of stealing his palm fruit.
“Olulayo Moyoloye of Kidimo camp, via Irele, attempted to behead his brother, Daniel Moyoloye with a sharpened cutlass. The suspect chopped off the left arm of his brother used to defend the cutlass,” the CP stated.
“The suspect who absconded from the farm was arrested a few days after the incident. The suspect claimed his brother accused him of stealing his palm fruit, and this led to a heated argument between them, and out of anger, he brought out a cutlass and macheted his left arm and immediately fled into the bush."

Gabon Coup: China Calls For Safety Of President Bongo, Says It's Monitoring Developments
The Chinese foreign minister, however, appealed to all parties to "guarantee the personal safety of President Bongo, and uphold national peace and stability."
The Peoples Republic of China has called on the relevant parties in Gabon to resolve their differences through dialogue, restore normal order as soon as possible, and ensure the personal safety of Gabonese President Ali Bongo Ondimba.
The Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin made the appeal during a press conference on Wednesday, according to Indian outlet, Wion News.
"China is closely following the developing situation in Gabon," Wenbin said, adding that, "We call on all sides in Gabon to proceed from the basic interests of the country and the people, resolve differences through dialogue, (and) restore normal order as soon as possible."
The Chinese foreign minister, however, appealed to all parties to "guarantee the personal safety of President Bongo, and uphold national peace and stability."
Wion reports that Bongo, who visited Beijing in the month of April this year, was greeted by Chinese President Xi Jinping as an "old friend".
Xi also hailed Bongo's "significant achievements" in development.
Bongo, in turn, thanked China for its "valuable assistance in promoting Gabon's economic diversification and industrialisation," a readout from state news agency Xinhua said.
Five Nigerian Stowaways Trying To Flee Country Over Hardship Arrested In Lagos
The Nigerian Navy has arrested five persons who hid on a vessel, while trying to flee from what they described as “the hash economic reality” in Nigeria.
The stowaways who were arrested onboard the vessel, MRC NARTHA, were identified as
Efiong Okon (44), Ayewuni Daniel (27), Ajagboma Asiko (29), Adebanjo Ayewumi (23) and Christian Joseph (25).
