Pete Edochie Angry About Social Media Media Impersonators

bomprince@gmail.com (Anonymous) — Sun, 14 Aug 2016 05:51:00 +0100

Nollywood Veteran, Pete Edochie spoke about his many impersonators on Facebook and Twitter. He expressed that so many posts have been made, none of which were from him:
“Right now, I’m watching football in my house, but as I speak to you, some people are posting on Facebook or Twitter, using my name and picture.”

“It’s either they are talking about politics, state of the nation, ascribing series of proverbs to me or using my name to counsel people about marriage.”

“Someone asked me how I had time to put plenty proverbs on Facebook. I told the person I wasn’t responsible for them and that I didn’t even have a Facebook account, and she couldn’t believe it.”

“Some people said I sat with Mourhino in one of the profile pictures and that I was telling him the gods were angry with him. Then, they posted another one that Buhari came to consult with me in my shrine.”

“From time to time, you would hear or read that Pete Edochie died in London or on location. In our culture, if people wish you dead, you’d attend the person’s funeral.”

“I’m satisfied with what life has given me. I don’t envy anybody and I don’t want to be anybody. I just want to be left alone as Pete Edochie.”

Pete Edochie spoke in an interview with Punch Newspaper today, August 13.

Man murders wife’s lover on matrimonial bed

bomprince@gmail.com (Anonymous) — Fri, 12 Aug 2016 08:31:00 +0100

A 32-year-old businessman, Ezekiel Igbokwe, has been arrested by the Ogun State Police Command for allegedly killing his wife’s lover, Victor Olatundun.

Igbokwe was said to have killed Olatundun after he caught him having sex with his wife at their matrimonial home.

The suspect allegedly committed the offence at about 12am at Peace Lodge on Itura Street, Awa Ijebu, Ijebu-North Local Government Area of Ogun State.
The suspect, who committed the crime on Wednesday, July 27, was arrested by the police the following day.

Igbokwe and his 28-year-old wife were among the 23 suspects paraded at the Ogun State Police Command headquarters, Eleweran, Abeokuta, on Thursday, for various offences ranging from murder to illegal possession of firearms and ammunition.

Igbokwe, who said he was a businessman, explained that he had returned from his trip to Onitsha and met Victor on top of his wife on their matrimonial bed.

He said he picked a machete in the toilet and cut the victim in the neck and hand.

Olatundun reportedly died on the way to the hospital.

Igbokwe, who deals in electronics, said he was born in Ago Iwoye, Ogun State.

He said, “I travelled to Onitsha on July 25, and when I came back on July 27, I met a man inside my room making love to my wife. Then we started fighting. The man was stronger than me. When I saw he could overpower me, I got a cutlass in my toilet and dealt him blows in the hand and neck. On the way to the hospital, the fuel in the car finished and he died.”

Igbokwe said he committed the crime due to anger, adding that he never meant to kill the victim.

He claimed that he had never met Olatundun before, saying he also never suspected that his wife was having an extra-marital affair with anyone.
We where told that Igbokwe and his wife, Juliet, have three children aged nine, seven and five.

Juliet, who sobbed intermittently, said her alleged lover had been pressurising her for a relationship for some time.

She explained that she had always told him she was married, but the victim never gave up until he ended up at their matrimonial home on that night.

Juliet, who said she sold snuff, said Victor was her supplier and he pestered her for six months before she finally gave in.

She said she suspected that the deceased used a charm on her, as she could not explain how it all happened.

She said, “He had been disturbing me that he wanted to marry me, but I said I was married.

“On the day of the incident, I really can’t say if he used a charm on me. All I know is that he called me that he wanted to see me and I told him not to come; he knew my house and when he came, I didn’t know what happened.

“He used to come and deliver snuff to me in the house. On the day of the incident, he told me he was coming from somewhere and that it was already late. He wanted to sleep in our place till the next day. He didn’t know that my husband was away. He tried to sleep with me, but later he didn’t.”

Juliet, who claimed that she got married to her husband in 2005, said the husband did not take good care of her and the children.

She said their marriage had been turbulent and fraught with fights and quarrels.

The mother of three said each time there was a fight, her husband would leave the house for months.

Food shortage hits Boko Haram

bomprince@gmail.com (Anonymous) — Tue, 9 Aug 2016 21:47:00 +0100

Intelligence sources say Boko Haram camps in the North-East have been hit with food scarcity forcing indoctrinated members of the militant sect to continue to move out in droves.

According to a Tuesday Daily Mail report, while some Boko Haram suicide bombers and militants were seen heading for Europe, others had begun to travel to join and fight for the Islamic State in Syria.

A source linked to Nigeria’s National Intelligence Agency was quoted as saying that, “They (Boko Haram refugees) will soon start showing up on the Mediterranean’s shores

“Some of these people are trained suicide bombers and fighters, including children as young as ten. They have all been indoctrinated by Boko Haram and they could soon turn up in Europe’s capitals.”

Intelligence sources also reported that human traffickers from the ISIS-backed terror group were transporting girls and young men across the Sahara into Libya.

The situation, they said, was even more worrisome because “five children are dying an hour with 250,000 at risk of starvation while parliament remains hamstrung in a political wrangle.”

The crisis is being blamed on the instability in the Senate attributed to the criminal charges pressed by the Federal Government against the Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki.

Daily Mail quoted an intelligence source as saying that Saraki’s prosecution had been obstructing his attempt to get the Senate to pass a motion to grant £215m in aid to tackle the emergency in the North-East.

He said, “This case needs a swift conclusion for the country to unite and tackle the very serious issues of famine, security and a stumbling economy.

“This famine must not happen on our watch. I have seen the plight of these people with my own eyes and it is desperate. The government is making every effort to ensure money is available to fully address this issue.”

He said the situation was not justifiable after Britain had committed to spending £860m foreign aid to Nigeria, to help support the country’s efforts to crush Boko Haram terror group.

The report quoted a British public health expert who has just returned from Borno region, Dr. Yodi Alakija, as describing the situation as an “international crisis.”

“The UN requires Nigeria to declare it a humanitarian disaster to get relief. This is not a time for politics or game playing. Five children are dying an hour every single day.

“This requires urgent action. We need people to drop their political differences and come together. They can fight later when the children are ok.”

The medic, who works for UNICEF, warned, “If we do not make adequate provision for these people there could be an exodus. That’s when Europe will panic and it will happen when people have nothing and take desperate measures.”

Abia: Court threatens to throw out ex-PDP chairman, Ogbulafor

bomprince@gmail.com (Anonymous) — Tue, 9 Aug 2016 21:41:00 +0100

The ongoing crisis in the Peoples Democratic Party on Tuesday reared its head at the Court of Appeal, Abuja, when six appeals filed with respect to the tussle between Okezie Ikpeazu and Uche Ogah over the governorship seat of Abia State came up for hearing.

The presiding Justice of the five-man bench of the appeal court, Justice Helen Ogunwumiju, apparently incensed by the development, threatened to order a former National Chairman of the PDP, Chief Vincent Ogbulafor, to be escorted out of the court for failing to heed to the warning against turning the court to the PDP’s battleground.

When the first appeal filed by Ikpeazu was called, one Mr. Bashir Madugu, from the Sheriff camp and claiming to be the Acting National Legal Adviser of the PDP, stood up and identified himself as the representative of the party in the proceedings.

Ogbulafor, who is of Ahmed Makarfi camp, also identified himself as a former Chairman of the PDP, a member of the Board of Trustee and that he was in the court to represent the party.

Angry with how the event was playing out, Justice Ogunwumiju warned that the court should not be turned to a forum for “intra-party squabbling”.

Shortly after the warning was handed down, Ogbulafor stood up, saying, “I am a former National Chairman of the PDP and I represent the Board of Trustee of the party. I actually don’t know him (Magudu).”

Justice Ogunwumiju who could no longer hide his irritation, shouted at the ex-PDP boss, saying, “Sit down and keep quiet. If you don’t, I will order that you be escorted out.”

Shortly after the drama, Dr. Onyechi Ikpeazu (SAN), announced his appearance as the lawyer representing the PDP in the case.

Ikpeazu urged the court not to record any of the factions as representing the party (PDP) for the Tuesday’s proceedings.

The court agreed with Ikpeazu.

After Ikpeazu announced appearance for the PDP, another lawyer, Mr. O.O Fakunle (SAN), also layed claim to be the PDP’s authentic lawyer.

Fakunle said he was briefed by the “National Working Committee of the PDP” and that he had been instructed to withdraw the appeal briefs filed by Ikpeazu (the lawyer) and substitute them with the ones he freshly filed.

Portraying his link to the Sheriff faction, Fakunle said Magudu was the valid representative of the party for the proceedings.

In response, Justice Ogunwumiju said the court would not condone Fakunle’s appearance because he was not the counsel on record.

She challenged Fakunle to file it as part of his grounds of appeal if he was dissatisfied with the court’s decision on the issue.

The court, after the proceedings that lasted over eight hours on Tuesday, reserved judgments in six separate appeals challenging the two decisions of a Federal High Court in Abuja, which on June 27, 2016 removed Okezie Ikpeazu as Governor of Abia State.

The Justice Ogunwumiju-led five-man bench of the appeal court reserved its judgments till a yet-to-be-fixed date after hearing parties to the various appeals.

Justice Okon Abang of the Federal High Court in Abuja had in his judgments delivered on June 27 sacked Ikpeazu for allegedly disclosing false information in relation to his tax clearance details to the Independent Independent National Electoral Commission in his form nominating him as the candidate of the PDP for the last year’s governorship election in the state.

The judge, also in the said judgment, ordered the governor’s rival who was the first runner-up in the primary that produced Ikpeazu as the candidate of the PDP, Mr. Uche Ogah, to takeover.

The judge held that Ikpeazu was not qualified to be PDP’s candidate having disclosed false information to INEC in violation of his party’s Article 14(a) of the PDP Electoral Guidelines and Section 31 of the Electoral Act.

BREAKING: EFCC releases blogger, #Abusidiq

bomprince@gmail.com (Anonymous) — Tue, 9 Aug 2016 21:10:00 +0100

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has released popular blogger, Mr. Abubakar Sidiq Usman, otherwise known as Abusidiq, who it arrested on Monday.

Friends of the blogger, whose controversial arrest attracted criticism, confirmed to our correspondent that he regained his freedom around 6pm.

The EFCC spokesman, Mr. Wilson Uwujaren, on Monday said the blogger was “for offences bordering on cyber stalking”, adding that he had been offered administrative bail and would be released to his elected sureties.

He, however, spent the night in custody after reportedly failing to meet the bail conditions.

Considered pro-All Progressives Congress, the bloggers arrest divided Nigerians with some claiming he should be left to his fate and others condemning it, warning that it was violation of his rights.

Some others were puzzled by what the EFCC meant by ‘cyber stalking’, claiming that the real reason for his arrest was a story he published in which the EFCC Chairman was accused of corruption.

Among those who called for his release were the Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project and the Peoples Democratic Party.

While SERAP accused the EFCC of detaining him “simply exercising his constitutional and internationally recognised right to freedom of expression”, the PDP condemned the anti-graft agency for equating journalism with cyber stalking.

Taylor Lautner Was Always Too Good for This Till Today

bomprince@gmail.com (Anonymous) — Tue, 9 Aug 2016 20:28:00 +0100

all think back to a simpler time, a lovelier time: a time when Taylor Swift was dating Taylor Lautner. This was back when good ol' Swift was still pretty country, with the curly hair and the twangy tunes and the adorableness, and back when "Twilight" movies were still coming out. Those were the days, right?

Lautner, it seems, is one of Swift's good exes, if not the only good one. Her other former loves have gotten some pretty intense songs written about them, while Lautner got her very first apology song. Let's take a moment to remember:

But that was all so many years ago, and both Taylors have moved on. And that's why it's so great to see what the male Taylor has to say about his ex-girlfriend today:

The talk about Swifty comes around nine minutes in, and really you just have to love how hard Lea Michele and John Stamos go on about her even though this poor Taylor obviously just wants to let it go. Also, isn't it adorable how he pretends not to be familiar with "Back to December" at first?

Taylor Lautner seems like a true gentleman here -- no wonder Taylor Swift kicked herself so hard over losing him.

Kendall Jenner Tit Committed

bomprince@gmail.com (Anonymous) — Tue, 9 Aug 2016 20:11:00 +0100

Commitment to Excellence was what drove the Oakland Raiders success an eon or two ago when they could claim such. The Kardashian's unwavering commitment to tits and ass and the slow motion dribble of cum has taken them from a janky lawyer's family to a full fledged empire of flesh and aborted baby wall art. Each girl has their signature. Kendall Jenner's claimed braless for herself. Not a day passes she's not out there showing off her lady nubs.

Is it working? Jenner just laid out a forty-percent cash downpayment on a $6.5 million dollar house above Sunset Boulevard so she could "chill and vibe out" with her friends. Every woman has tits. What does Kendall Jenner have that all the women taking Washingtons down their tops lack? Commitment. There's no "i" in the word whore. though there ought to be if they ever getting around to modernizing.

Amber Heard refused to go under oath Saturday for her deposition, crying, yelling and screaming in defiance ... so claim Johnny Depp's lawyers, who want the judge to call BS on her and dismiss the domestic violence case.
TMZ broke the story, Amber showed up around 11:50 AM Saturday for a 10 AM deposition. She was there until around 9 PM but never even walked in the deposition room, where lawyers, a court reporter and videographer were waiting.

According the the docs, Amber refused to enter. At 5:30 PM, Wasser again requested Amber to enter the depo room and against she refused. She never went in the room, instead, according to Wasser, she began crying and carrying on in the adjoining office.
Wasser says Amber also refused to turn over documents she had requested.
Johnny's team now wants one of 2 things ... either an order prohibiting Amber from testifying when the case goes to trial next week, or an outright dismissal of her domestic violence case.

Jose Mourinho: I'd have signed Renato Sanches if only United had hired me earlier

bomprince@gmail.com (Anonymous) — Sat, 6 Aug 2016 17:00:00 +0100

Jose Mourinho was keen to sign Bayern Munich's Euro 2016 winner Renato Sanches for Manchester United but was appointed too late, according to the Portuguese coach.

18-year-old midfielder Sanches - named the best young player at the Euro 2016 finals in France - joined Carlo Ancelotti's side from Benfica for a fee of £29.6 million, a total that could rise to around £60m depending on appearances and what he achieves with the German champions.

Sanches was paraded by Bayern on Saturday alongside fellow new signing Mats Hummels, but Mourinho has claimed he could easily have been wearing the red of United rather than Munich if he had been appointed Louis van Gaal's successor earlier.

"I arrived late. I signed in May, we started talking a week before, but completely out of the process. If I had arrived earlier, I’d fight for him," said Mourinho on Sport TV.

"Manchester United watched Renato many times and maybe I did it even more. In so much time at home, I watched many Benfica and Portuguese league games, I got to know the boy better with time.

"He's in a big club, in a league where he’ll certainly be the champion. The club have players of very high level which belong to the structure, a little like Benfica."

Paul Pogba 'heading to Manchester on Saturday'

bomprince@gmail.com (Anonymous) — Sat, 6 Aug 2016 16:51:00 +0100

Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba is reportedly expected in England today, ahead of a move to Manchester United.

The 24-year-old is about to finish his holidays in the United States, and onlookers are waiting to see whether he will land in Italy or in the United Kingdom.

But speculation is rife that he will head directly to England to sign a deal to join Jose Mourinho's team, with the Independent reporting that "Pogba’s projected world record transfer to Manchester United could go through as early as Sunday after plans were put in place for the Juventus midfielder to fly to England for a medical and to finalise terms."

Juventus manager Max Allegri said in Saturday's press conference - ahead of Sunday's game against West Ham - that Pogba is a Juventus player, and that he would be in Italy with the rest of the team on Sunday night.

With uncanny timing, a report by Premium Sports simultaneously declared that Pogba will land in England today, with a view to signing for Manchester United.

Updates are expected throughout the day as the Pogboom saga appears to move towards a conclusion - though given that people have been reporting its closure as imminent for several weeks, it's probably best not to get too excited just yet.
