Ex-NHIS boss appears before EFCC over seized $2.1m cash

Former Executive Secretary of the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS), Dr. Olufemi Thomas has voluntarily submitted himself to EFCC, to clear the air on the $2.1million cash seized at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport (MMIA) in Ikeja- Lagos.

One Mr. Ibiteye Bamidele (pictured above), a bureau de change operator who was arrested by the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) for being in possession of the $2.1m cash suspected to be laundered, had implicated the ex-NHIS boss.

The suspect was however declared wanted by the EFCC on Thursday on the suspicion that he had absconded to evade justice.

But Thomas, a former Commissioner for Health in Ekiti State voluntarily submitted himself for interrogation on Friday at EFCC Headquarters in Abuja but denied that he was planning to run away because he did not get any invitation from the anti-graft agency.

Dressed in a white brocade, Dr. Thomas who arrived the EFCC around 10: am was drilled by the commission's operative to ascertain his level of complicity.

He was released at about 2:pm. However, the EFCC spokesman, Mr. Wilson Uwujaren could not be reached as at press time to confirm the interrogation.

His media aide, Mr. Sola Adeyemi had in a statement described his boss as a thoroughbred professional and dutiful public servant who would not stand in the face of the law.

The statement reads in part,"Dr. Femi Thomas is a law-abiding public individual that has treatable addresses in Lagos and Ekiti. He is a man that I work with and I know him for his words and actions. As I speak, we are yet to receive any formal invitation from any quarter on the allegation.

"For the avoidance of doubt, my boss is not on the run, he is in Nigeria, he is available and ready to present himself to the EFCC as soon as he is invited."

LWKMD!!! Former FRSC Boss Lands Himself in trouble after buying brand new SUV at Scrap Value

A former Corps Marshal of the Federal Road Safety Commission, FRSC, Haladu Hananiya, is in trouble for allegedly paying N150,000 for a brand new Toyota Land Cruiser jeep worth N13 million.
Mr. Hananiya is alleged to have used his position as former Chairman, Governing Council of the Adamawa State University, ADSU, to convert the vehicle to his personal property.

The university bought the brand new vehicle on January 28, 2015, several months after the former FRSC boss ceased to be chairman of the institution’s board.
Seven days later, the car was passed to Mr. Hananiya who bought it off as scrap, paying a token N150,000.

A whistle blower, one Luka Ibrahim Monduva, first made the alleged scam public in a petition to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.

Mr. Hananiya was appointed chairman of ADSU governing council on August 16, 2014.
About two months into his four-year tenure; the state government sacked the board on October 8, 2014.

However, three months after the board was sacked, the university, on January 28, purchased a brand new Toyota Land Cruiser V6 Jeep with chassis no: JJEJU9FJ3E5C47168 for Mr. Hananiya.
He bought off the vehicle as scrap seven days later.

In his petition to the EFCC, Mr. Monduva alleged that prior to Mr. Hananiya’s appointment; the university’s management passed a resolution that empowers principal officers to retain official vehicles after paying the scrap value of N150, 000.

“Principal officers are entitled to retain their official vehicles once during their tenures after paying the scrap value of N150, 000; and if for any reason an officer leaves office after spending two years or half of the tenure, he shall pay the scrap value of N150, 000,” part of the resolution reads.

But Mr. Hananiya only spent two months in office, and Mr. Monduva described his purchase of the new car on scrap value as “fraudulent and questionable”.
He insisted that during the short period the former FRSC boss served in the university’s board, he was not given an official vehicle.

“However, the Governing Council of ADSU, acting in concert, conspired with the vice chancellor of the university and purchased an official vehicle on the 28th day of January 2015 at the cost of N13 million long after the termination of Gen. Hananiya’s short term in office,” the petition reads.

“I wish to assert here that subsequent to the belated and illegal purchase, the duo reduced the disused official vehicle to a ridiculous scrap value of N150, 000 only, which does not in any case represent the fair value of the vehicle.

“Wherefore, I humbly invite the EFCC to interfere and reverse the fraud perpetrated on the university and prosecute parties to the act altogether, thereby engendering probity and observance of due process in the discharge of official functions by public servants.”

However, EFCC spokesperson, Wilson Uwujaren, confirmed that the commission received a petition against the former FRSC boss.Mr. Uwujaren also confirmed that the EFCC has started investigating the matter.

2015/16 Premier League: 50 Things That Will Definitely Happen This Season

As the Barclay's Premier League 2015/16 season kicks-off, see the things that are most likely to occur.
The past 3months has been boredom filled for soccer lovers around the world. The end is new, as the managers set to unveil new strategies, player ready to ball hard, and fans just can't wait to watch.

Below are things that will Definitely happen this season.

Manuel Pellegrini will somehow maintain that dignified smile, even when he is asked the the 756th question about Pep Guardiola potentially replacing him.

Raheem Sterling will be booed - everywhere.

Brendan Rodgers will celebrate a goal by standing dead still and thrusting one hand in the air… as will Roberto Martinez (it's clearly a Merseyside thing).

A manager of a top four club will be asked around February whether his side can do the quadruple. He will coyly say "nothing is impossible". They will not do the quadruple.

Heurelho Gomes will pull off twenty stunning saves to deny Spurs points at Vicarage Road. He'll accidentally throw the ball into his own net in every other game of the season.

At least one Chelsea fan will hold up an A4 sheet of paper saying that Petr Cech is a traitor.

We'll hear BBC stalwart Gary Lineker say the words "We'll be back right after this break" on BT Sport - and it will sound really weird.

Commentary for every Liverpool game will contain a reference to Gerrard watching from America.

President Buhari Approves Amnesty For Boko Haram Insurgents

Source took words to Breaking Times that President Buhari has approved amnesty for the Boko Haram terrorist group.

From the source, The president has concluded plans on granting amnesty for the Boko Haram terrorist group and in no time, the official announcement will be out.

“I can authoritatively tell you that the issue has gone beyond a plan, President Buhari has concluded on the issue, granted approvals and it will be announced soon,” the source said.

Contrary to earlier reports, which suggested that the Nigerian government is open to negotiations with Boko Haram alongside considerations of amnesty in a deal expected to put an end to the mass killings of innocent Nigerian citizens by the dreaded terrorist group, our source hinted that the idea of amnesty is not one Boko Haram has accepted.

“President Buhari is actually acting proactively by offering amnesty to them in the hope of sealing a ceasefire deal with the terrorists. From all indications, Boko Haram has not agreed to lay down their arms for amnesty. But this new offer by President Buhari is expected to soften the terms of negotiation with them”, the source disclosed.

Recently, President Muhammadu Buhari declared that he is ready to negotiate with the dreaded Boko Haram terrorists, according to his spokesperson, Femi Adesina. Adesina disclosed this in an interview with BBC Africa. He said if Boko Haram members are willing, the president will negotiate with them.

However, this seems to be against the earlier stance of Buhari who during his campaign, promised not to negotiate with the insurgents if elected as president.

“Boko Haram is not interested in peace – if they are interested in peace, how can they kill 13,000 Nigerians?” the former military ruler told BBC News in February.

As news of presidential amnesty for Boko Haram filters from the Presidential villa, it is not immediately clear why President Buhari has adopted the carrot approach to dealing with the Boko Haram menace.

“There must be a strategy behind it that we may not know about. You know the President is a retired military general and just returned from a trip to the US where he had discussions with President Obama on this Boko Haram issue. We can only watch events unfold within the next few days”, a security source told BREAKING TIMES.

Buhari backed amnesty for Boko Haram, In 2013 as leader of the Congress for Progressive Change (CPC),

According to him;

“Yes, it is good they have set up a committee and I haven’t seen the terms of reference, but it is the right thing to do. This is not the first time amnesty will be given to … eh.. what shall I call them, a violent group; remember what happened with Alhaji Musa Yar’Adua and the militants. So, this is not the first time. Whatever that will bring peace to the society, we should do it.”

The insurgents between the period of 6 years, has killed more than 13,000 civilians and 1.5 million people have been displaced in the streaks of their wanton bloodshed and violence.

Bukola Saraki's visit to Maiduguri not for 2019 presidential bid - Senate

The Senate has discredited claims in some quarters that Senate president Bukola Saraki's visit to some IDP camps in Maiduguri, Borno state on Monday August 3rd was geared towards his alleged presidential aspiration in 2019. Speaking through its chairman on publicity, Senator Dino Melaye, the senate said there was no truth in the claim.

“It is myopic to say the visit has a link with 2019. The visit was not the making of the Senate president but the resolution of the Senate during a plenary last week. The visit has nothing to do with the ambition of the Senate president.
The visit was as a result of the motion moved by Senator George Thompson Sekibo of Rivers East Senatorial District on the Boko Haram insurgency. It was during the debate at the floor that Senate resolved that a delegation led by the Senate president should visit the North East states,” he said.

Buhari initiates move for domestic weapons production

President Buhari has initiated moves for the production of weapons in Nigeria. According to a statement signed and released by Senior Special Adviser to the president on media and publicity Garba Shehu today August 7th, President Buhari charged the Federal Ministry of Defence to produce a plan for the establishment of a modest Military Industrial Complex for the local production of weapons to meet some of the requirements of the country's armed forces. The statement after the cut..

President Muhammadu Buhari Friday in Abuja directed the Federal Ministry of Defence to produce a plan for the establishment of a modest Military Industrial Complex for the local production of weapons to meet some of the requirements of the country's armed forces. Speaking at the graduation ceremony of the National Defence College, President Buhari described as unacceptable, Nigeria's current over-dependence on other countries for critical military equipment and logistics. "We must evolve viable mechanisms for near-self-sufficiency in military equipment and logistics production complemented only by very advanced foreign technologies. "The Ministry of Defence is being tasked to draw up clear and measurable outlines for development of a modest Military Industrial Complex for Nigeria. "In this regard, it is to liaise with other strategic MDAs and industries to re-engineer the Defence Industries Corporation of Nigeria (DICON) to meet national military hardware and logistics requirements," the President said. President Buhari told the gathering that his administration had, since its assumption of office, reviewed the nature and character of Nigeria's security threats and challenges. "We recognized first and foremost, the external dimensions of these threats and the need for international cooperation and common security mechanisms to tackle them," the President said.

President Buhari added that in the light of this realization, his Administration was "convinced that the best approach was to work within the framework of the Lake Chad Basin Commission (LCBC) to mobilize a collective regional effort in the fight against terrorism and insurgency.

The President urged the graduates and officers and men of the Armed Forces to work harder to win the war against Boko Haram, terrorism and insurgency.

"We must apply a comprehensive strategy and coordinate all elements of national power against terrorism and insurgency; we must show result oriented leadership at all levels of military Command; we must set up an optimal organization to manage and sustain operational performance; and we must show confidence and winning mentality," President Buhari told them.

The President assured that the Federal Government under his leadership will strive to meet the operational, logistic, training and welfare requirements of the Armed Forces of Nigeria.

He also reaffirmed his commitment to ameliorating the hardships of people living in areas most affected by insurgency and terrorism.

"We have the will, resolve and conviction to apply a comprehensive strategy and coordinate all elements of national power against terrorism and insurgency," the President reassured Nigerians and the international community.

President Buhari said that the National Defence College had fulfilled the vision of its founding fathers, by becoming a strategic human capacity-building institution, making credible contributions to Nigeria and other friendly countries.

The President urged graduates of the College's Course 23 to resolve to make "a marked difference in your future deployments and contribute your quota to the evolution and implementation of national security, defence and military strategies."

"You should be the source that lights up the environment wherever you find yourselves," he told them.

LWKM!!! Groom sues bride for not being pretty enough

An Algerian groom took his bride to court just a day after their marriage, accusing her of not looking as pretty as before the wedding and of cheating him with much make-up.

The groom, who is seeking $20,000 damages, told court in the capital Algiers that he was shocked when he got up in the next morning and found that his wife looked so different, that he could not recognise her.
Newspapers in the North African Arab country said the groom swore in court that he even mistook his wife for a “thief who came to steal his apartment".

“The groom told the judge that he could not recognise his wife after she washed the make-up off her face.
"He said he was deceived by her as she used to fill up her face with make up before their marriage,” the papers said, quoting a court source.

“He said she looked very beautiful and attractive before marriage, but when he woke up in the morning and found that she had washed the make-up off her face, he was frightened as he thought she was a thief.
"The groom told court that he is demanding $20,000 damages for his psychological suffering.”

Anambra Police Command arrest over 40 students for kidnapping and cult activities

40 suspects accused of involvement in criminal activities, including cultism, kidnapping, car snatching and vandalism, were paraded on Wednesday by the Anambra State Police Command.

Parading the suspects, the Commissioner of Police, Hosea Karma, said the cultists, aged between 14 and 16 years, were students of Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, and the Federal Polytechnic, Oko.

Karma told newsmen that the boys, arrested at Obosi, were members of the Black Axe and Vikings, among other cult groups, insisting that the criminals found the town a safe haven to operate because of the recurring land crisis in the community.
Meanwhile, 48 youths from Obosi, who were brought to the police station during the parade, renounced membership of their various cult groups.

They were brought in 5 buses by the Obosi President General, Dan Igbokwubile. They also pledged to assist the community, the police and the state in fighting crimes. Karma disclosed that the suspects snatched 3 cars, while one of them was behind the kidnap of the personal assistant to the former commissioner for works in the state.

The police chief, who disclosed that “the other suspects specialised in vandalising communication masts and electricity cables,” commended Governor Willie Obiano for his support to the security agencies, also thanked the public for their cooperation, especially with useful information.

He listed some of the items recovered as locally-made shot pistols, cutlasses, axes, black and red candles (reportedly used for rituals), drums for their music, a lot of Indian hemp and handsets, among others.
Meanwhile, Karma said the police were now more determined to flush out criminals from their hideouts in order to maintain the existing peaceful environment in the state.

He urged students and young people to face their studies instead of resorting to crime, which does not pay, warning that the long arm of law would always catch them.

Stressing the collective need for government, communities and leaders to rid the state of all undesirable elements, he enjoined parents to monitor the activities of their children.

Oh! Three die as thugs loyal to monarchs clash in Ogun State

Three people were killed during a clash between hoodlums reportedly loyal to 2 rival monarchs in the Ijoko, Ifo Local Government Area of Ogun State.

The two monarchs, Oba Abdulfatahi Matanmi and Oba Lasisi Ogunseye, had been at loggerheads for years over who had sovereignty over the community, with both sides attacking each other.

It was learnt that the community was thrown into turmoil around 3pm on Wednesday by the thugs, who reportedly wielded guns, cutlasses among other weapons.

Policemen from Sango-Ota Police Division were said to have intervened and restored peace in the area.

It was learnt that 2 tricyclists were injured in the fracas which lasted for about two hours.

One of them, Tajudeen Adeleye, who was admitted in a hospital in the community, said he had taken some passengers to the Railway area ─ the scene of the clash ─ around 6pm when he was attacked.

He said

“I shuttle between Abule and Ijoko-Ogba Ayo. I decided to go on a last trip around 6pm. I was trying to park at our bus stop in Railway bus stop when I was attacked.”

When Punch correspondent visited the community on Thursday, they observed that residents were still living in fear, as most of them declined to comment on the mayhem.

Armed policemen were also seen patrolling the neigbourhood.

An eyewitness, who identified himself only as Rasaq, said the clash was fuelled by supremacy claim as the thugs belonged to rival cult groups.

He said:

“The rate at which Matanmi and Ayatu’s (Ogunseye’s) boys attack one another is very disturbing. On Monday, I saw them hanging around and I sensed that they wanted to cause trouble again. They started around 3pm and three persons were killed, but I don’t know their identities.”

Another eyewitness, Segun Ogunleke, said he saw 2 lifeless bodies on the ground while he was running to safety.

“There was confusion everywhere because of gunshots. I saw two corpses on the ground. They were taken away by the police,” he said.

When contacted, the monarch, Matanmi, directed inquiries and questions to the other Monarch, saying he had nothing to say about the killings.

He told Punch correspondent:

“Go and meet Ogunseye and his son who are attacking and killing people at Ijoko. I have nothing to say.”

Oba Ogunseye’s son, Mohammed, who spoke on behalf of his father, said the attack was between Eiye and Aiye confraternities, adding that it had nothing to do with the kingship tussle.

“For about 3 months now, the battle between two cult groups has been on. They have been killing one another and that was what happened yesterday (Wednesday) too. It was not an attack between us and Matanmi,” he said.

The Police Public Relations Officer in Ogun State, DSP Muyiwa Adejobi, confirmed the clash.

He said:

“There was a clash between two groups, but we cannot link it to kingship rivalry. Policemen have been deployed in the area and investigation has commenced on the attack. One person was hacked to death and his corpse has been deposited in a mortuary.”

Read what Caitlyn Jenner says about sex and dating a man

In the latest clip from I Am Cait, Caitlyn Jenner admitted she's still not sure which sex she is more attracted to, a man or a woman.

While having a dinner party with some of her girlfriends, the topic of conversation soon turns to sex and relationships.

'I wanna hear what it's like to date as a trans woman in our community,' Cait's friend - and rumoured girlfriend - Candis Cayne announces.

'Caitlyn you start,' someone shouts, catching the former Olympian off guard.

'Absolutely nothing!' she grins while the room laughs along.

Chandi, another of her friends, then interjects: 'I know for a fact you've said many times that you've only been attracted to women...'

'I've only been with women,' she clarifies, before declaring: 'I have bigger things than an orgasm to worry about.'

When the table is then asked: 'who's more attracted to men?' Caitlyn looks around intrigued at all the hands drifting up.

When all eyes settle on her, she realises her own hand is half up - and she quickly pulls it down.

'I don't know, I don't know,' she hurriedly replies. 'I've never been with a guy.'

'You're gonna date women, you're gonna date men, what are you gonna do.... I don't know!' she confesses in frustration.

Late Michael Jackson's doctor shares hand-rolled 'cigarette' with MJ's son

One of late Michael Jackson's doctors had a famous guest on his yacht on Tuesday - Michael's son, Prince Jackson and according to TMZ who got exclusive photos, they shared a hand-rolled 'cigarette'. More photos after the cut..

"The doctor, Alex Farshchian, according to a letter he wrote to Michael, which was seized by the Santa Barbara Sheriff's Dept. in MJ's molestation trial. He was trying to get Michael off Demerol and onto a synthetic, less addictive substitute for the drug. That's why the photos are so interesting ... the doctor who was treating Michael Jackson in the throes of his Demerol addiction was smoking something with MJ's 18-year-old son. Dr. Farshchian tells TMZ they were smoking tobacco on the yacht in Miami. It's odd that a tobacco cigarette was passed around to at least three people." TMZ reports
