The Gombe zonal office of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC has arrested eight individuals for producing and selling adulterated fertilizer in Gombe Metropolitan City and Lariski village of Kirfi Local Government Area, Bauchi State.

The suspects are: Usman Shawari, Adamu Abdulhamid, Dahiru Salisu and Dahiru Muhammad.

Others are Abdullahi Maidawa, Suleman Ahmed, Muhammed Aliyu and Ibrahim Musa.

The arrested suspects specialized in adulterating genuine fertilizer purchased from recognized companies like Indorama and the Federal Government fertilizer, with sand. They then package the adulterated fertilizer in the bags of the original companies without authorisation, and then sell same as genuine to unsuspecting farmers at same price.

Investigations revealed that the sand is often more than two-third of the bags content, giving it the false feel that it was more than the normal one.

Parading the suspects on Wednesday, July 31, 2019, Michael Wetkas, Zonal Head, said the Commission received intelligence report through the zone’s Intelligence and Special Operations Section, ISOS, on July 27, 2019 and immediately swung into action. The illegal factories located at Lariski Village, Kirfi Local Government Area of Bauchi State, and Gombe Metropolis were raided, and the suspects rounded up.

Further investigations showed that other places where the illegal activities were taking place, include Commercial Area (Kasuwan Goro) and Gombe New Market (Kasuwan Doya), both in Gombe Local Government Area. Fully loaded truck of 600 bags and two Toyota Tacoma pick-up vans of 81 bags of adulterated fertilizer were intercepted by operatives.

Wetkas said: “We will do everything within our powers to make sure that this stops, because this is the zenith and pinnacle of wickedness of man to man, our farmers in the rural areas go through a lot to afford a bag of fertilizer and these people are there defrauding innocent farmers.”

Pointing out that tomorrow isn't guaranteed, the media personality stated that one shouldn't go poor while trying to look rich because there is an end to every journey. OAP Yolanda wrote;

Popular Nigerian multi-talented rapper and father of one, Ice Prince Zamani is scared of falling in love again.

Zamani took to his Twitter to reveal reasons behind his fear to love, perhaps, as a result of the trauma he had been through with women and relationships.

According to reports, the singer once dated Eva Alordiah who was his first girlfriend when he moved to Lagos in 2009.

Things didn’t work out, he moved on to Ghanian actress, Yvonne Nelson but they broke up due to busy schedules.

It seems he had a thing for girls named Yvonne as he dated the fashion designer, Yvonne Nwosu but the relationship was short-lived.

Ice Prince was also romantically linked to a French-Ghanaian lady, Maima in 2014.

Sadly, they eventually went their separate ways when rumours about Maima seeing other men broke out.

Scared of getting his heart shattered, the singer poured out his emotions.
“I’m too scared of love because I don’t want to fail again”

Nigerian music executive, Godwin Tom kneel down and proposes to his lover, Enobong. He took to his Instagram page and wrote;

I was at @mytph for the Men at Work conference when the ring landed from Dubai... @vanlaide's company @dubzplug had helped me source the ring and sent it to Lagos.

I wanted it to be perfect. I have no plans of doing this twice except for renewals of course but it had to be perfect. I didn't want a party. I didn't want people. I wanted to make my promises to her. I wanted her to know that in public and in private, that I cherish her the same. Then I thought, there is a reason most people capture this phase... To remember moments. I also thought, this woman might just tell me to hold on so she can find her phone and record. I didn't want any interruptions. I wanted to focus on her and let her know that she is the most beautiful thing that has happened to me. So I hit up the real photographer of the Galaxy and the milky way @thechudy_ to focus on us while we focused on each other.

I had spent the day running all over the place for her party... @luxeballoons.ng for the proposal and birthday party balloons and they killed it by the way (pictures coming soon), then to @saltlagos for 2 cakes... Then to @noirlagos to make sure the venue, food and drinks were in line... Then to the palms to pick up her gifts. Everything was meant to be a surprise. To distract her, I sent her to a spa so she would be out of my way to do what I needed to do without hearing "where are you now?" �

After all the madness, thankfully she was changing at mine so that worked perfectly. @thechudy_ arrived and I went downstairs. I opened the ring box and my nerves hit the roof. Was this perfect enough? I wanted it to be as intimate as possible. I wanted her to love it. I want her to be happy. As I climbed the stairs to my apartment, all the words I had written and memorised left my head. She was in the room about to change when I got in the door and I called her to come out. I was trying to concentrate and remember. Then she walked out. Not in a perfect dress, not in make up... Just her. How I will see her every day before bed and when I wake up. She said Yes!

I love you @enobong.e! The beginning of an amazing life with the best babe! ❤️ Shout out @didi.obot @tomina___ for all the help!

A 40-year-old man, Ahmadu Mohammed, has been arrested by the police in Niger State for illegal possession of firearms.

Mohammed was arrested at Garatu village in the Bosso Local Government Area of the state after he was found with a fabricated AK-47 rifle and two single-barrelled guns with two cartridges.

It was gathered that Mohammed was trailed and apprehended by a team of policemen attached to the Special Anti-Armed Robbery Squad of the Niger State Police Command following a tip-off.

Northern City News gathered on Thursday that the Mohammed was suspected to have participated in some armed robberies in the Bosso area before his arrest.

In an interview with our correspondent, the suspect said, “I am not a thief or a killer. I only use the gun to protect my family and my animals from evil people, who refuse to engage in any meaningful thing to better their lives.

“I regret my action because I am not supposed to have any firearm under my roof without a licence from the constituted authority. I was only trying to protect my family and my animals. I beg the police to forgive me.”


The command’s Public Relations Officer, Muhammad Abubakar, who confirmed the arrest, said, “The command will no longer tolerate unlawful possession of firearms in the state and we have warned people to desist or face the wrath of the law.”

On Monday night, a non-Nigerian pilgrim slumped at the Masjid Haram/Nabawi in Madinah, Saudi Arabia.

The pilgrim collapsed shortly after Solatul Maghrib, a prayer offered around 7am. Officials of the Saudi Arabia Red Crescent Authority otherwise known as emergency responders were seen attending to him and about five of the emergency responders battled hard to revive him unsuccessfully.

The situation was brought under control when a reporter with TheNation and a medical practitioner with the Lagos State Muslim Pilgrims Welfare Board (LSMPWB), Dr Abideen Aro got to the scene.

Aro introduced himself as a medical practitioner to the visibly troubled emergency responders before they allowed him access to the slumped pilgrim. He quickly collected some medical instruments, including the one used to check the pilgrim’s heart if it’s still active.

After administering some medical therapies, the pilgrim opened his eyes and responded to further first aid treatment. The pilgrim was quickly put on emergency vehicle and driven to the hospital for further treatment. The emergency responders thanked Dr Aro for his heroic feat.

According to Dr Aro, who is working with the Lagos State Accident and Trauma Centre, the pilgrim was dehydrated. He said the high temperature in Saudi Arabia could be the cause. Aro, who was formerly with the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital (LASUTH), said the pilgrim needs to be placed on drip to regain some energies.
