Shocking Images from The Aftermath of California's Wildfires

Posted: 13 Oct 2017 04:33 AM PDT

Hundreds of people are still missing in massive wildfires which have swept through California killing at least 29 people and damaging thousands of homes, businesses and other buildings.

Ash that resembles snow covers streets and houses in Northern California in overhead images that make clear the devastating destruction caused by wildfires that have been ripping through the area since Sunday night - burning through more than 170,000 acres of land.

This is sad! See more photos from the scene...



Photos taken on Wednesday show the huge plumes of smoke rising from communities ravaged by the fires across California, which have killed 23 people so far in the north and nearly 300 unaccounted for as an additional 20,000 across the state have been told to evacuate their homes.

Firefighters started to contain the blazes earlier in the week before gusts of 20 to 40mph winds and extremely dry conditions joined forces on Wednesday, threatening to spread the flames even further.

Officials say that 22 fires spanning more than 300 square miles an area equivalent to the size of New York City and still raging.

EFCC is a senseless body - Fayose | Mr Olumide's Blog

Posted: 13 Oct 2017 04:12 AM PDT

Controversial governor Ayo Fayose, has declared the EFCC a senseless body saying he will restructure it when he eventually becomes the president.

The Ekiti state governor made this known at a reception held in honour of two of the state officials who were recently arrested and then released from EFCC custody.

"By the grace of God, I will restructure the EFCC when I become the president of this nation. I will reorganize EFCC and make it look responsible. They detained me in 2008, but I won them in court because the most high God was on my side. EFCC is a senseless body, because if they are not senseless, it should have known that the man who wrote the petition had been sacked because he didn't deserve to be called a civil servant. The arrest of my officials was orchestrated by Ekiti indigenes in collaboration with the EFCC. I will never go and beg EFCC, it will rather beg me. I won't negotiate anything because I am not afraid of them. There was a subsisting court that barred them from arresting any official of this state, but they breached the law' he said

NIGERIAN WILL NEVER BREAK UP

Posted: 13 Oct 2017 03:58 AM PDT

A former Minister of Information and Culture, Prof Jerry Gana, has said that despite what Nigeria is going through, the nation will not disintegrate.

He said this on Thursday while delivering the convocation lecture at Ajayi Crowther University, Oyo.

The lecture had the title, 'Building a culture of academic excellence in Nigerian universities.'

At the event, the former minister called on Government to review beneficiaries of TETFUND, saying that exclusion of private tertiary institutions in its disbursement was not ideal.

He said, "I don't believe in the notion that this country will break up. Nigeria will never break up. This is an idea of God and he will uphold the country. Nigeria is one of the most powerful countries of the world, that's why the devil is fighting us. All we need is sustainable policies and leadership that will lead the country aright and I see God bringing that about soon in the country.

"There are many Nigerians who are passionate and believe in the country. There are many experts that the country is blessed with and they will soon take charge of the country."

Gana said that the efforts of stakeholders to address the problems of the People Democratic Party and reconcile those who were aggrieved was a good thing for Nigeria, adding that the party was capable of solving some of the nation's problems.

He said, "I am a politician. I appreciate the PDP and I am sure we shall use the party to solve Nigeria's problem and the rest will be history."

Prison officers seek Comptroller-General’s suspension | Mr Olumide's Blog

Posted: 13 Oct 2017 03:42 AM PDT

Some officers of Nigeria Prison Service (NPS) have called for the suspension of Comptroller-General of Prisons Ahmed Jafaru for alleged abuse of office.

They urged President Muhammadu Buhari to order an immediate probe of Jafaru's administration.The Nation reports that,the officials, who described themselves as "Aggrieved Prison Officers", accused Comptroller-General of Prisons of diversion of funds to fixed deposit accounts, alteration of age and staff recruitment that did not follow due process.

The officers alleged that workers' salaries became irregular after he allegedly moved funds into a fixed deposit account.

Jafaru was also accused of directing that part of staff salaries be paid through Nigerian Prison Micro-Finance Bank, which they said has offices only in Kaduna, Enugu and Ibadan.

The directive, according to them, meant prison workers had to travel long distances at huge risks to get their salaries.

The officers also accused the Comptroller-General of recruiting 2,000 warders without following due process, adding that there were plans to recruit 6,000 more.

"If he is not immediately called to order, it is the same process that he used for the illegal recruitment in 2015 that he will use again for the proposed recruitment," they said.

According to them, efforts to get the Interior Minister to call Jafaru to order failed as "the minister gave us cold shoulders".

They asked the Comptroller-General to release the staff nominal roll detailing senior officers' positions and offices.

They claimed that in one nominal roll, Jafaru's date of birth is stated as July 21, 1957, but in another nominal roll, it is July 21, 1959.

The officers also alleged there is high mortality rate in the prisons due what they described as sharp practices on award of "ration and gas contracts" and project executions.

But spokesman of the NPS, Francis Enobore, described issues raised in the petition as false and unfounded

I spent N3.5bn on sick children – Patience Jonathan | Mr Olumide's Blog

Posted: 13 Oct 2017 03:12 AM PDT

Former first lady, Patience Jonathan says her foundation Aruera Reachout Foundation, spent over N3.5bn for the treatment of 700 children and adults with heart-related ailments.

Patience, in a statement by her Chief Press Secretary, Belema Meshack-Hart, on Thursday,rubbished allegations by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission that she used her foundation to launder stolen funds

The statement added, "
Till date, over 700 children have benefited from the Aruera Reachout Foundation, this alone cost the foundation billions, it is not news that the logistics involved in the treatment of heart disease cost over N5m per child.
"This demonstrates the caring and maternal nature of Nigeria's former first lady. God has used her as an instrument to positively touch the lives of some of our nation's sick children, to make them healthy and happy through the appropriate medical intervention, it is now strange and sad that the EFCC will allege that such foundation only existed to launder funds.
The many sick children that would have died but now live a happy life will stand as testament against the baseless propaganda and shameless allegation of the EFCC. It is worthy of note that the foundation which is duly registered by the CAC is free to receive donations from reputable individuals and organisations for its projects just like any other NGO

CAN hits Churches for allowing worldly musicians, comedians perform in Church

Posted: 13 Oct 2017 03:03 AM PDT

The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has criticised the attitude of some churches, especially in the city of Abuja in inviting secular entertainment stars to boost attendance at their programmes.

The General Secretary of CAN, Musa Asake, condemned the new trend saying it would only distract people from the teachings of Christ.

Rather than the ''church learning from the world, the church should be imparting the world." 

It is now common for churches to publicise upcoming programmes and services by printing massive bill-boards and circulating posters, bills, fliers to announce the attendance of actors, musicians and other worldly celebrities who are known to swim in immorality at such events.

At times, gospel acts are invited alongside these entertainment icons to boost attendance.

Landlord and his children stabs tenant to death | Mr Olumide's Blog

Posted: 13 Oct 2017 02:57 AM PDT

A landlord in Imo state has reportedly murdered his tenant who was set to marry his fiance in less than weeks.

According to report, the tragic incident occurred at No. 50 Onumonu Street in the state capital between 9pm and 10p. The landlord Paul Oparaugo, and five of his kids stabbed the man, Udochukwu Iwuoha, to death on Wednesday.

Iwuoha, who was to be married on Friday (today), according to neighbours was stabbed until he died before the landlord and his kids vandalized his property.

The deceased's neighbour said;


"The incident happened on Wednesday. Udochukwu had told Paul Nwachukwu, who is a security guard at a branch of Guaranty Trust Bank, to stop rearing chickens behind his apartment.
"He told him that the smell and noises of the chickens were affecting his health; but the family took his observation as an insult.

"They beat him up before stabbing him. A neighbour, Godspower, who came to rescue Udochukwu (Iwuoha), was stabbed in one of his hands.
"The man, Paul Oparaugo and five of his six children – Chiemezie, Ndubuisi, Ugochinyere, Chidera and Deborah – committed the dastardly act. It was the last born, Michael, who is in primary school, that didn't take part in the murder."

Friend of the deceased said:
"He had complained that his landlord was always on his case."

Another neighbour, who identified himself simply as John:
 "The hospitals demanded a police report because the injuries were too much. Before we could get the report, he died.
"We have reported the matter at the Owerri Urban Police Station. Policemen came here, and his corpse was deposited at a morgue."

 State's Commissioner of Police, Chris Ezike, confirmed the incident, and said that the case has been transferred to the homicide section of the Criminal and Investigation and Intelligence Department of the state police command.


Ezike said, "It is a case of a family feud. Some youths in the area wanted to take the law into their own hands, but we were able to calm the situation.

"The suspects are known; they are on the run, but they can't run for too long."

Woman kills three-year-old son for ‘looking like his father’ | Mr Olumide's Blog

Posted: 13 Oct 2017 02:57 AM PDT

Australian Supreme Court on Thursday sentenced a mother, who killed her three-year-old son "because he looked like his father," to no less than 33 years in prison.

The mother and her partner, the boy's stepfather, were found guilty of murdering the toddler after almost two months of abuse in August 2014.

Her partner was sentenced to 30 years in jail.

The mother, 43, had claimed that the boy, identified only as Joseph, died after tripping over a rope tied to the family dogs.

She told police the boy "just pushed my buttons too many times" and "I had so many thoughts about killing Joey."

"Don't get me wrong I did love that boy, but there was a part of me that hated him because he looked like his father and that he's his father's child,'' she said, according to records heard by the court.

Judge Johnson said that rather than nurturing her son, the mother punished him as if he was in some way responsible for the sins of his biological father.

British man swallows 6-inch fish | Mr Olumide's Blog

Posted: 13 Oct 2017 02:57 AM PDT

A British man's heart stopped after he accidentally swallowed a 6-inch long Dover sole on a fishing trip in Boscombe, in southern England.

The man, 28, who was not named, went into cardiac arrest on Oct. 5 after the fish leapt into his mouth, completely blocking his throat. However, paramedics were able to clear his airway after drawing the sole free with a forceps. They saved his life.

According to USA Today, Matt Harrison, an emergency responder for the South Western Ambulance Service, said he was on the scene in less than two minutes. When he arrived on the dimly-lit pier where the man was fishing, a friend of the casualty was already performing CPR.

The man's friend, also not named, told Harrison he had jokingly placed a fish he had just caught over his mouth. The sole then wriggled free and jumped into the patient's throat, causing a complete obstruction.

As the patient's heart had already stopped, paramedics continued CPR.

He was then artificially ventilated with a bag and mask, but his airway remained blocked and he wasn't receiving any oxygen.

The man began to deteriorate.

Harrison said
: "It was clear that we needed to get the fish out or this patient was not going to survive the short journey to the Royal Bournemouth Hospital.
"I used a laryngoscope to fully extend the mouth and throat and saw what appeared like an altered colour of tissue in his throat.
"Using a McGills forceps I was able to eventually dislodge the tip of the tail and very carefully, so as not to break the tail off I tried to remove it — although the fish's barbs and gills were getting stuck on the way back up.
"I was acutely aware that I only had one attempt at getting this right as if I lost grip or a piece broke off and it slid further out of sight then there was nothing more that we could have done to retrieve the obstruction."

After six attempts, the fish finally came out in one piece. To paramedic's amazement, it was a whole Dover sole, measuring about 6 inches.

After the patient arrived at hospital, he was able to respond to some questions, and has since made a full recovery.

Lagos Resident Leads Gang To Rob & Kill His Neighbour

Posted: 13 Oct 2017 02:33 AM PDT

The police in Lagos are on the trail of one Chinedu, a resident of Ayobo, Lagos State, who led a six-man gang to rob his neighbour. Sadly, the victim was shot dead in the operation.

Two members of the gang, Tobi Michael, 22, and 19-year-old Adigun Gbolahan, had been arrested.

Two single-barrelled guns and charms were reportedly recovered from them. According to Punch, apart from Ayobo, the gang terrorised Ijanikin and Igando areas of the state.

The duo owned up to the crime when they were paraded on Wednesday at the Lagos Police Command headquarters in Ikeja.

Michael, an indigene of Ilesa, Osun State, said he went into robbery last year after he completed his apprenticeship in furniture making.

He said he bought the gun he used for operation from one Awala in Alaba Rago for N15,000.

He said, "A friend called Bigi introduced me to robbery after I finished learning furniture making. I made between N30,000 and N50,000 from each operation. I had participated in about 20 operations.

"In July 2017, Chinedu led us to his neighbour in Ayobo. When we got there, he stayed outside, while Adigun (Gbolahan) and I entered. When we asked the man to give us money and his mobile phones, he brought out a cutlass and hit me on the head. I got angry and shot him dead. I was drinking at a joint in Alaba Rago when Bigi led policemen to arrest me."

Michael added that the charms were meant to ensure successful operations and create fear in the minds of victims.

His accomplice, Gbolahan, who hails from Ibadan, Oyo State, said he used to work with another gang, but was invited to the Ayobo operation by Michael.

He said, "I live in a ghetto in Alaba Rago. I just completed training in tailoring and I needed money for graduation. We were three in my gang. Two of them had been arrested and they are in Kirikiri prison.

"I followed Tobi (Michael) and gang members to Ayobo, but I did not carry a gun."

The state Acting Commissioner of Police, Edgar Imohimi, who paraded the suspects, stated that they were among 40 suspected armed robbers and cult members arrested across the state.

IGP Idris Sues Saraki, Senate Over Investigation For Alleged N120bn Bribe

Posted: 13 Oct 2017 02:33 AM PDT

The Inspector-General of Police, Ibrahim Idris has filed a suit before the High Court of the FCT, Abuja, seeking an order restraining the Senate and Senate President Bukola Saraki from going ahead with their plan to investigate allegations of malpractices against him.

The lawmaker representing Bauchi Central, Isah Misau, of the APC, had alleged, among others, that the IG collected about N10bn monthly from some firms and highly-placed Nigerians for security.

Misau, a former police officer before being elected to Senate, also accused Idris of granting fraudulent promotions to undeserving police operatives.

Misau, who is the Chairman, Senate Committee on Navy, had accused Idris of extorting money, ranging from N10m to N15m, from Commissioners of Police, State Mobile Commanders and Special Protection Units Commanders, for favourable postings.

He had argued that the level of corruption being perpetrated by IGP Idris was so alarming and capable of undermining the anti-corruption stance of President Buhari.

The IG had denied these allegations while the Force Headquarters had accused Misau of leaving the force with forged retirement papers.

IGP Idris had alleged that Misau was a deserter.

Faulting the committee set up by Saraki to investigate him, IGP Idris is seeking, "A declaration that the committee set up by the Senate to investigate the allegations against Ibrahim Idris is unconstitutional, null and void.

"A declaration that the sitting and other conduct of such constituted committee to investigate the allegations against Mr. Idris are unconstitutional, null and void.

"An order restraining the Senate Committee howsoever designated from sitting, inviting Mr. Ibrahim Idris, hearing or taking a decision, against the current Inspector-General of Police, pending the determination of this suit.

"An order restraining the President of the Senate and the entire Senate from receiving and discussing any report submitted to it by the committee set up to investigate the allegation against Mr. Ibrahim Idris pending the determination of this suit."
