    Gunmen kidnap husband, wife, others in Oyo

    Some gunmen have reportedly stormed a hotel in Ajaawa, the headquarters of Ogo Oluwa Local Government Area of Oyo State and kidnapped the hotelier, Mr Olukunle Oyedokun, his nursing wife, Juliana, the infant, five other close relatives including his other children and a guest at the hotel.

    According to reports, two other guests were able to escape from the gunmen in the incident that happened around 10.30pm on Saturday.

    But a senior police officer who spoke on condition of anonymity said although there was an occurrence at the hotel, the number of the victims could not be established now.

    He said family members gave conflicting figures to the police. He said while some mentioned seven, some said it was just two persons that were abducted.

    The gunmen were said to have started shooting to create fear in the minds of their victims immediately they invaded the hotel located at the back of CAC Primary School, Lagbedu Road, and subsequently whisked their targets away.

    It was gathered that Oyedokun was planning for a burial ceremony coming up this weekend and other family members had arrived in the town to start the preparations for the ceremony.

    The abductors were said to have already made calls to the family of the victims to demand N15m as ransom to free their captives.

    Sources said the payment had been reduced to N2.5m but the family members were said to still be running around to raise the money.

     

    The Police Public Relations Officer in Oyo State, Mr Adewale Osifeso, could not be reached by our correspondent and was yet to respond to the message sent as of the time of filing this report.

    However, residents said the police, Amotekun Corps and hunters had started combing the bushes in search of the kidnappers and their victims.

    The National President of Soludero Hunters, Nureni Ajijolaanobi, when contacted confirmed the incident to our correspondent.

    He said members of Soludero Hunters, policemen and others were making moves to rescue the victims.

    Ajijolaanobi also called on Governor Seyi Makinde to make available vehicles and other logistics to members of the Joint Security Task Force he raised to make them effective

    He said Soludero Hunters had been using their vehicles and personal money to carry out their operations since.

     

  • Odumeje, Rita Edochie yet to contact me-Ada Jesus’ husband

    Odumeje, Rita Edochie yet to contact me-Ada Jesus’ husband

    Nnadi Kinglsey, husband of late comedienne, Ada Jesus has revealed that popular Pastor, Chukwuemeka Odumeje and Nollywood actress, Rita Edochie are yet to contact him since her passing.

    TheNewsGuru recalls that before the demise of Ada Jesus, she had alleged that Anambra-based prophet, Chukwuemeka Odumeje, schemed with actress, Rita Edochie, to stage fake miracles. She further alleged that she helped Edochie get men to sleep with her.

    Reacting to the issue, the husband of the late comedienne said, “I had met with Prophet Odumeje and Rita Edochie to ask for their forgiveness after what my wife said about them went viral. Odumeje was angry at first, so I asked her family to take her to the church to further plead for his forgiveness. Afterwards, people told me that Rita Edochie posted a video saying that she had forgiven her but I have not watched it till now. The two of them have not contacted me since she died. But some of her fans had reached out to me”, he told Punch.

    Nnadi also said that he didn’t know she was going to die at a young age.

    “I am not feeling okay at all. My wife was someone I loved so much. It is so heartbreaking and sad that she has died. I was with her at the hospital when she gave up the ghost. I was staring at her till she gave up. I never thought she would die at such a young age. Even when she gave up in my presence, I still had hopes that she would come back to life. I and Mr Harrison Gwamnishu were present at the hospital and none of us thought she would eventually die. I had so much hope that she would live and the doctors also raised our hopes as a family.

    “On her birthday, April 19, she did not even make any wish. We were just happy that she was a year older. She also did not say any strange words that might have suggested she knew she would die soon. She thought she would recover. A pastor I knew through a friend came to pray for her at the hospital and when she asked him if she would recover, he responded in the affirmative. Everyone around tried their best for her. Money was not the issue. On April 5, our marriage was two years old. On the day she died, she asked me to bring her food, but after a while, she started shouting. I asked her what the problem was and she said I should call the doctors. After she received the injection, they said that her breathing was very bad. Her parents and my family members are still shocked at the sad news.”

  • Incest: A Soaring Sexual, Family Absurdity – Michael West

    Incest: A Soaring Sexual, Family Absurdity – Michael West

    By Michael West

    It is rudely disgusting reading stories of incestuous relationships in families in our society these days. It is happening as if the taboo has become a norm. The ugly incident has become a daily news item in the media. Why this is so deserves to be looked into, and attempt to address the moral plague.

    What is it that should attract a father to his own biological daughter? Whatever her age, beauty, body features, height or natural endowment, I still can’t come to terms with any rational opinion about it. Sincerely, I don’t know.

    I can’t fathom the urge that would make a dad develop a sexual intimacy with his own blood. It is even more disgraceful when the shameful act involves the minors and teenage girls. I want to believe that such dads need psychiatric examinations. No sane father, in his right senses, should think about it much less engaging in it.

    There are factors that can trigger incest in a family. One, it is used as part of rituals for initiation into secret cults. Two, it is used for money, political and fetish rituals.

    “The regrettable aspect of this ugly situation is that such randy men hardly get punished for their indecent behaviours. Rather, the cheated wives and moms will either fight their daughters or send them away in order to “keep their homes.”

    Three, it could be a spiritual attack, a curse or spell in operation in the affected family blood line. Four, it is a psychiatric disorder which manifests in form of emotional misadventure and sexual insanity. These four factors are my findings when I subjected the circumstances and confessions of some of the culprits to critical analysis and psychological discernment and evaluation.

    I learnt of some rich men whose daughters are their sex partners. I was told of a particular billionaire whose daughter will fly to meet him wherever he is around the world whenever she has the urge for sex. Whether it is true or not I don’t know but the gist was rife in social circle some years ago. We have also read about some allegations in the media involving dads and daughters. At some point, eligible bachelors were not keen on marrying the daughters of the rich due to this reason. The suspicion is fading away as guys now hunt for such babes targeting the financial benefits that would naturally come with such relationships.

    About four years ago, a 24 years old young woman was having an affair with her dad in Kenya. This particular case was none of the four reasons I adduced for the growing taboo in Nigeria. When she was put on live radio interview on Hero FM, she was not ashamed to own up for sleeping with her dad. She said her reasons for having an affair with her dad were that “dad was good in bed, he has a huge and satisfying dick, and in addition, he gives me money.”

    When asked how the affair started, she explained that she actually seduced her dad because she envied her mom. She’s of the opinion that her mom didn’t know how to maximize the natural endowment of her dad, more so, “he gives me money unlike my boyfriend who doesn’t give me money.” Though she was in a state of discomfiture when she was told that her boyfriend, whom she thought was in the dark about the affair, actually gave the presenter the information and used the opportunity to call it quit with her.

    She revealed that she was using her boyfriend as a smokescreen to shield her secret affair with her dad. She added that because her dad was a businessman who travelled a lot, she found it convenient to go and meet him wherever he was. She mentioned a particular hotel in Kenya where she had a weekend romp with her dad. What eventually became the situation in the family I don’t know by the time her mom, who didn’t know anything of such was happening under her nose, listened to the interview on radio and the scandal went viral on the internet. This evil is happening in many homes unannounced.

     

    I don’t want to load this article with media daily reports on the absurdity. This week alone, a number of such cases have been reported. Just imagine a 49-year-old dad who sexually abused his 12 years old daughter for a crazy reason that his wife is no longer attractive to him. According to the report, the 12-year-old girl actually reported her 49-year-old father, Ubong Akpan, to the police for violating her for five years since she was seven years old. The girl said she could no longer bear the constant sexual molestation again hence she decided to complain to the police.

     

    The Ogun State Police Command, through its spokesman, DSP Abimbola Oyeyemi, confirmed the incident last Monday in Abeokuta. “Upon the report, the DPO, Itele-Ota Division, CSP Monday Unoegbe, detailed his detectives to the scene, where the suspect was promptly arrested. On interrogation, he confessed to the crime and claimed that his wife was appearing too old and no longer looking attractive to him,” Oyeyemi said.

     

    A woman called me a couple of years ago that she was contemplating poisoning her husband because he was sleeping with their first daughter. Narrating the situation in tears very early in the morning, she said her husband no longer hide it. “Around 2am, I just woke and I didn’t see him by my side in bed, I stood up to check where he was, as I approached the children’s room, he just emerged from the room tying his towel not minding my presence. He went straight to our bedroom and slept off. I went inside to check my daughter, her under was wet with sperms. She looked at me, sobbing. My girl is 14 years old, Michael West help me.” (She wept profusely).

     

    Similarly, some randy stepfathers are involved with their stepdaughters in immoral sexual affairs. Just like the Kenyan case, some wayward girls don’t mind sharing same men with their moms provided the men are the type they lust after. An undergraduate almost ruined her mom’s marriage. The secret was leaked that her husband, the supposed dad at home, was the same man her daughter saved his contact as “Microchip” on her iPhone. Reading through the chats on her WhatsApp page, the mom collapsed. It took her friends and family doctor to stabilize her condition two days after.

     

    The unfortunate story I heard about a man who married a single mom because of her pretty young daughter was disheartening. The man really gave hope, comfort and new lease of life to her and her two children. It was impossible for the man to marry the 19-year-old girl while he was 48 years old. He endeared himself to the girl in particular such that she was known as “daddy’s favourite.” By the time the secret got leaked barely a year into the marriage, the man declared to his wife that “if you will not allow this (affair with her daughter to continue quietly), then, the marriage is over. I married you because of her.” I was told she wept and remained in moody condition for almost a week before she let him have his way, painfully though.

     

    The regrettable aspect of this ugly situation is that such randy men hardly get punished for their indecent behaviours. Rather, the cheated wives and moms will either fight their daughters or send them away in order to “keep their homes.”

     

    Such wicked men should be exposed, prosecuted and punished. Mothers should keep an eye on their adventurous and loose daughters. Pretending that all is well when it is not, is delusional.

  • Man kills 57-year-old suspected of having affairs with wife

    Man kills 57-year-old suspected of having affairs with wife

    A 30-year-old man, John Samuel, has been arrested by operatives of the Adamawa State Police Command for stabbing to death a 57-year-old man, Yaji Lawal, at his residence over suspicion that he was having an affair with his wife.

    The spokesman of the Command, Suleiman Nguroje, confirmed the development in a statement on Monday.

    Nguroje said Samuel, a resident of Bandasarga village, Ganye Local Government Area, returned home on Sunday around 11pm and met Lawal in his house, adding: “There and then, he suspected the victim of coming to have an affair with his wife; all of a sudden, he stabbed him with a knife and left him in a pool of blood.”

    Lawal, a resident of Bakari Guso village, was rushed to hospital, but was later confirmed dead.

    Nguroje said the police swiftly arrested the culprit, a father of three.

    The state Commissioner Police, Aliyu Adamu, has ordered further investigations into the case, while also appealing for calm in the area.

  • Marriage and intestacy law – Ozioma Onyenweaku

    Marriage and intestacy law – Ozioma Onyenweaku

    By Ozioma Onyenweaku

    I got a call. It was not a number that I knew. The caller introduced himself. On hearing the name, I thought the call was to thank me on behalf of his late brother’s wife and children for successfully obtaining the Letters of Administration for the late brother’s estate. The appreciation call would have been quite apt considering the fact that I carried out the work on ‘credit’.

    Rather, after introducing himself, the caller started his threat. He called me names and threatened to “show” me, to “deal with” me, and to “jail” me.

    What was my offence? I attached a copy of a portion of the Administration of Estate Laws that prescribed the sharing pattern given different scenario, and highlighted the one that applied to the deceased who left a wife and children. This was what irked my caller. He got offended that I brought that to the notice of the wife.

    He said the property would be shared according to their custom. I understand that by their custom, my caller is entitled to a share in his late brother’s property. By the provision of the Law I attached, he has no such entitlement. I then understood his pains. But come to think of it, I did not make the law! Ok, I get it now; my offence was in bringing it out to the attention of the beneficiaries. But my caller is quite wealthy, so why the fuss?

    Well, I know that the kind of marriage the deceased and his wife had does not warrant application of tradition and custom in the sharing of the deceased’s estate. Their marriage was statutory marriage. So the man having died intestate, that is, without a Will, his property would be shared according to the applicable Administration of Estate Law after obtaining the Letters of Administration. The Administration of Estates Law of Lagos captured this in section 49(5):

    “Where any person is subject to customary law contracts a marriage in accordance with the provisions of the Marriage Act and such person dies intestate after commencement of this law leaving a widow or husband or an issue of such marriage, any property of which the intestate might have disposed by Will shall be distributed in accordance with the provisions of this Law, any customary law to the contrary notwithstanding.”

    The Estate Law provides the sharing formula:

    1. Surviving husband or wife

    If the intestate leaves a husband or wife without any issue (child), no parent, or brother or sister of the whole blood, then the surviving husband or wife takes the residuary estate absolutely. In other words, where a man dies without a child, has no parent or brother or sister of the same parent (or even their children), then his wife takes his residuary estate exclusively, without sharing same with anyone.

    1. Surviving husband or wife and children:

    If the intestate leaves issue (child), whether or not he leaves parent or brother or sister of the whole blood, the husband or wife will take the personal chattels (cars, clothing, books, shoes, jewelry, furniture, pictures, wines, and such other assets of personal use) absolutely; and in addition, the husband or wife will take one third of the residuary estate while the surviving children take two-thirds thereof equally.

    The surviving spouse, together with the children of the deceased, inherits his property to the exclusion of every other person.

    1. Surviving husband or wife with no issue

    If the intestate leaves a surviving husband or wife, a parent, a brother or sister of the whole blood or their issue but leaves no issue of his own, then the surviving wife takes the personal chattels absolutely; and in addition, also takes two thirds of the residuary estate. Either one or both parents will take the remaining in equal shares absolutely whether or not the intestate leaves brother or sister of the whole blood.

    Where the intestate leaves no parent, the brother or sister of the whole blood take the remaining one third in equal shares absolutely.

    1. Intestate without surviving husband or wife

    If the intestate leaves no husband or wife, the residuary estate will be held for the issue of the intestate, that is, the children.

    1. Intestate without surviving spouse, children

    If the intestate leaves no husband or wife, and on issues, but both parents, then the residuary estate will be held for the father and mother in equal shares absolutely; if the intestate leaves only one parent, then the residuary estate will be held for the surviving parent absolutely….

    Take note that customary marriage, marriage under Islamic Law, and statutory marriage are the three marriages recognized as legal marriages in Nigeria.

    However, in the event of intestacy and property sharing, statutory marriage has a great advantage.

  • My husband not bothered about gossip about me- Nkechi Blessing Sunday

    My husband not bothered about gossip about me- Nkechi Blessing Sunday

    Controversial actress, Nkechi Blessing Sunday is one role interpreter who made headlines for both good and bad reasons.

    Inspite of her being in the public glare constantly and several gossips being peddled about her, Sunday stated that her husband doesn’t believe gossip about.

    Speaking in a chat with Punch, “My marriage is the part of my life I wanted to be quiet about. I know that I have always been loud about all my relationships but I also like and deserve privacy too. I only show people what I want them to see. It is my marriage and everyone should not know who I am married to. My husband does not like social media. Before some people bombard him with messages on social media, looking for what is not lost. He does not even comment on my Instagram posts. I know I am a loud person but even spiritually, it is advisable not to always have too much buzz around everything one does. I gave birth and no one knew until they saw my child. Everything is possible as long as one has people who are not selling one out. It is one’s friends that often sell one out, and once one cuts that down, one’s secret would be safe.

    “My husband knows what I can do and he is not bothered about gossips he reads online. He is what people call the ‘ginger partner’. He knows the truth about me and that is why I can be unapologetic of my actions. I think it is important for one to marry an understanding partner.”
