  • Man electrocuted to death few weeks to wedding day

    A middle-aged man identified simply as Chukwudi has reportedly died after he was electrocuted.

    The incident was said to have occurred at Opobo road of the Ogbor Hills axis of the commercial nerve of Abia state.

    It was gathered that the deceased whose traditional marriage was some weeks ahead after discovering that there was light in his neighbourhood while there was no electricity supply in his apartment started looking for a ladder to apparently switch to the next active line.

    Reports have it that while he was on the electric pole trying to rectify the problem, electricity was restored back on the former line.

    “While on top of the pole, he was said to have rested his ladder on an electric-powered barbwire which triggered electric shock when the public power was restored.

    “He was trapped between the pole and the electrified barbwire, making it difficult for him to escape or even for people to come to his immediate rescue and by the time he was eventually brought down, he was dead,” a source narrated.

  • Cultists kill Anambra bachelor one week to wedding day

    A middle aged man, Abuchi Edekobi, reportedly lost his life on Saturday following a cult clash in Obosi, Idemili North local government area of Anambra State.

    The deceased, allegedly killed together with his friend, Somto Egbe by a rival cult group, was said to be preparing for his wedding a week before he met his sudden death.

    The duo, suspected to be members of Vikings fraternity, were allegedly attacked by a rival group suspected to be members of the Black Axe fraternity.

    A resident, who identified himself as Charles, said the attack by the rival group was a revenge mission over recent steady killings of their members in the area.

    He said, “Edekobi, popularly called Ija, had left Obosi for Ghana at the heat of the cult crisis where he spent about five years before his return.

    “He was preparing for his wedding scheduled to hold on the 29th of this month before he met his untimely death.

    “He was even in a burial party the same day he died and was sighted spraying money on a notable musician without knowing he was being trailed by those who later killed him.”

    Another resident, who did not want to be named, dismissed the report of cult activities in the area, saying the deceased was killed by his business associates.

    The officer in charge of the Special Anti- Cultism Squad, CSP Christopher Bassey, when contacted, said the force was on top of the situation, but declined further comment on the incident.

     

  • UNUSUAL: See who Akwa Ibom Speaker became bestman to on wedding day

    UNUSUAL: See who Akwa Ibom Speaker became bestman to on wedding day

    Uyo and surrounding towns of Akwa Ibom state were agog all through the late morning into the early afternoon today when an usual social event became the talk of the town.

    The news soon went viral, hitting the national scene when it filtered into the social media setting it ablaze in frenzied discussions.

    What was supposed to be a not too major event in Akwa Ibom donned a high publicity hue when the identities of the key participants became public.

    It was a wedding; an unusual one in our political climate.

    Tongues started wagging when pictures from the wedding of Kufre Okon, the Chief Press Secretary (CPS) to the Speaker of Akwa Ibom State House of Assembly, RT. Hon. Onofiok Luke surfaced online.

    However, what made news was not the wedding but the Speaker himself who was bestman to his CPS, an unusual combination in Nigeria.

    A state house of assembly speaker standing in as best man not to the state governor or other political bigwig but to one of his staff!

    Social media commentators showered praises on the Speaker, who recently celebrated his 40th birthday for his humility and for the honour done his CPS.

    Friends were, however, quick to point out to TheNewsGuru.com that the Speaker and his Chief Press Secretary have been close friends, a friendship which predates the Speakers high office.

    TheNewsGuru.com reports that Onofiok was first elected to the Akwa Ibom state legislature in April 2011. He was overwhelmingly reelected for a second term on April 11, 2015. On December 21, 2015, the 26-member Akwa Ibom State House of Assembly unanimously elected him as the 11th Speaker of the parliament.
