There is a new twist over the incident that happened in front of a police observation post in Gwarinpa as the Divisional Police Officer goofed when he said that the injured police constable has been discharged from the hospital.

What Yar'Adua Told Me When I Confronted Him On Reversal Of Sale Of Refineries To Dangote, Others - Obasanjo

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has castigated his successor in office, late President Umar Musa Yar’Adua for reversing the sale of the Kaduna and Port Harcourt refineries to a Dangote-led consortium by his administration.

The late president made the cancellation of the privatization of the moribund refineries one of the first things he did immediately he took over power from Obasanjo.

In the second part of an interview he granted Channels TV on Wednesday, Obasanjo, who is speaking publicly on the issue for the first time, accused Yar’Adua of bowing to pressure by some unnamed persons by canceling the said contract.

The ex-president, while justifying some of the claims he made in his controversial three-volume autobiography, My Watch, spoke about his efforts to get people to invest in the oil sector and how the country eventually secured buyers for two of its four refineries.

He said, “Eventually Aliko Dangote led a group that paid $750m for the privatisation of two of the refineries – 51 per cent privatisation – and my successor (Yar’Adua) came (in), he turned it down. In fact, he paid back the money because they (investors) had paid the money.

Bobbi Kristina Brown Dies At 22

Bobbi Kristina Brown has died aged 22 – six months after she was found unconscious in a bathtub.  

The aspiring singer was rushed to hospital and placed in a medically-induced coma on January 31 after she was discovered face-down in the water-filled tub at her townhouse in Roswell, Georgia.  

She passed away, surrounded by her family, at the hospice on Sunday – just 3 years after her famous mother, singer Whitney Houston, died aged 48 in a bathtub at a hotel in Beverly Hills. Officials are planning to treat the death of Bobbi Kristina, who was found in the tub with bruises on her face and body, swollen lips and a missing tooth, as a murder investigation. 

The person of interest in the case will reportedly be her boyfriend, Nick Gordon. 

The Houston family said on Sunday night that Bobbi Kristina ‘is finally at peace in the arms of God.’ In a statement via a representative, they said: ‘Bobbi Kristina Brown passed away July, 26 2015, surrounded by her family. She is finally at peace in the arms of God. 

We want to again thank everyone for their tremendous amount of love and support during these last few months.’ May her soul rest in peace…Amen!

China Sentences 14 Cult Members Who Say Jesus Has Been Reincarnated

A total of 14 members of a Chinese religious cult have been jailed for up to three years, state media said Sunday, the latest sentences after two members were executed this year for killing a woman.

Nine members of the banned Quannengshen group were convicted of “undermining the implementation of laws by making use of cult organisations”, the official Xinhua news agency said, citing prosecutors in the central province of Hubei.

The sentences ranged from 18 months to three years, the agency quoted local authorities as saying on Sunday.

It added that on Saturday a court in the northeastern province of Liaoning sentenced five cult members to prison terms of two or three years.

The agency said the punishments were for “spreading cult propaganda”.

Followers of Quannengshen, whose name can be translated as Church of Almighty God, believe that Jesus has been reincarnated as a Chinese woman — the wife of the cult’s founder.

The organisation appeared in the 1990s and the founder and his wife fled to the United States in 2000, Xinhua said.

Fear and apprehension enveloped the entire community soon after the lifeless body of Uzoma was discovered along a bush path close to his home.

A villager, who spoke on strict grounds of anonymity, said that “Uzoma’s throat was mercilessly slashed by the assassins”.

One of the stories associated with this gory tale was that Uzoma was last seen in company of two other boys before his lifeless body was discovered in the bush.

When Vanguard visited the home of the deceased’s family compound, his widowed mother was looking completely dazed and unable to speak on the issue.

However, late Uzoma’s uncle, Chief Donatus Okerenkwo, explained that the deceased had gone to the market earlier in the day to buy some food stuff for his mother and kola nuts for him.

Benue Varsity Students Dump Colleague’s Corpse At VC’s Office

Idoko was withdrawn for failing a re-sit.

A student, who spoke to one of our correspondents on telephone on condition of anonymity, said they believed that Idoko took his life because he could not bear the news that his 10 years in medical was in vain.

“He had been talking about it; that he wished he died a painless death; that the school had finished him. There is nowhere in the world that a medical student is withdrawn after spending 10 years,” he said.

The student said the students had complained about the manner in which examinations were conducted, where re-sits were prolonged for up to one year, as against the stipulated six weeks, with no efforts to engage the students.

Some of you might remember that former Head of State, Olusegun Obasanjo was among other top politicians who openly stood against the administration of the late military head of state -- General Sanni Abacha.

Abacha was quick to order the arrest, trials and sentences of all those who stood against him.

According to Leadership, Obasanjo in his new controversial book, ‘My Watch’, narrated how a group, National Unity Organisation was formed.

It came into existence to frustrate Abacha to leave power.

Obasanjo said Abacha “was so much below average as an officer that no serious attention was paid to him until he was made to announce the coup”.

“I was not in doubt that Abacha would attempt to silence me. This was clear from his apparent ambition for life presidency of Nigeria in insatiable appetite for corruption; his looting directly from the Central Bank; his need to silence everyone that could oppose him in any form; his actions towards my close friends and associates and his close surveillance of me by his security both within and outside Nigeria.”

The Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Mr. Femi Adesina, said this in an interview yesterday.

He revealed that contrary to the news making the rounds on a statement made by the President in the United States, no part of the country would be denied of the dividends of democracy.

But the Yoruba socio-political group, Afenifere, advised the President against neglecting any part of the country, no matter how insignificant the contribution of such area to his victory.

The spokesperson for the group, Mr. Yinka Odumakin, stated this on Friday, when he commented on a statement attributed to Buhari in the US.

President Buhari, had during a question and answer session with journalists in the US on July 22, said, “(Going by election results), constituencies that gave me 95 per cent cannot in all honesty be treated, on some issues, with constituencies that gave me five per cent. I think these are political realities. While, certainly there will be justice for everybody but the people who voted, and made their votes count, they must feel the government has appreciated the effort they put in putting the government in place.”
