There is panic in the Federal University, Otuoke, Bayelsa State, following the murder of two students of the university by yet-to-be identified killers.

One of the victims, identified as Edwin Tochi-Eze, aka Tochiba, was a 100-level student of the Department of Mathematics Education who recently won the ‘Mr Education’ contest.

Touch-Eze was said to have been found dead on Tuesday on a street close to his hostel with multiple machete cuts, which had raised the suspicion amongst students that his death might be cult-related.

The second victim, Ejekwu Lloyd, aka Chimzi, was said to have been found dead in a bush on the university campus with a gunshot wound in his chest.

A close friend of Tochi-Eze, Sammy Majestic, said Tochiba had been declared missing on Monday before his lifeless body was eventually found.

He said, “We were very worried and contacted his friends and family, but his corpse was discovered close to his residence on Tuesday.”

The Vice Chancellor of FUO, Prof. Seth Accra Jaja, said he was away to Abuja and asked our correspondent to contact the Deputy Vice Chancellor of the institution but he could not be reached.

It was, however, gathered that the university’s authorities had on Tuesday held an emergency meeting with the Student Union Government, faculty and departmental officials and the leadership of the Otuoke community over the insecurity on the campus.

A video of a severely malnourished naked woman, standing under the Jubilee Bridge in Ajah, shocked Nigerians when it went viral and people wondered how she found herself in such situation.

Some Nigerian claimed to be a case of ritual as were reactions regarding to it.

However, a reader of LIB who claims to be an eyewitness has now given an update.
Wole Elekula says the woman was not thrown out of a moving car as claimed by the Twitter user who shared the story. He says she was found fully-clothed in a bush in Ajah by a man. The man who found her brought her to the road where she became a spectacle as people gathered to gawk at her for a whole day.

She reportedly took her clothes off the day after and stayed there until her story went viral and help came.
An update from those who took her off the road gave her name as Ene and said she has been taken to LUTH were tests have been carried.


Read what the LIB reader wrote explaining how she came to be on that road:

“I was there and people that sell in the area said she was around that axis about a day or so although wearing clothes and still looking lean.
“Apparently according to reliable sources , a young man found in a bush around ajah and brought her outside, even gave her 200 naira to buy food, then she could talk , the girl said she went to Ile ife to see her boyfriend and she is from delta state as origin and that she lives in awoyaya.afterwards she could no longer talk.
“Then yesterday she pulled off her clothes and sat by the roadside around 3 pm or so. A car accidentally hit her on that spot , hence the.bruises on her body.
“No Benz dropped her. Annoyingly a Lagos state government 911 emergency bus came, after seeing her condition they took off. Policemen around the area stayed away despite pleas .one even cane and shot 3 times in the air to disperse crowd but they never went close and people re gathered taking pictures and laughing.
“This girl could still be saved if taken to a mental rehab and possible spiritual help from a real babalawo not pastors who are majorly fake in real situations like this . Pastors stage miracles, deliverance , etc at least 95 percent.
“Until 9 pm the girl was still there without any attempt to rescue, the DPO was informed but failed to mobilize policemen. Am sure if they do their work the perpetrators can be caught especially now that it’s on all blogs someone might just recognize her and let us know her bf or who she was last seen with.”

A yet-to-be identified man was on Sunday morning shot and hospitalized as some Okere-Urhobo youths and their Itsekiri counterparts clashed in Okere Market in Warri South Local Government Area of Delta State.

The youths shot sporadically in the area forcing traders and buyers to abandon the market trying to save their lives
The youths also looted some of the shops within the area.
According to the reports, no one was shot dead.

The Delta State Commissioner of Police, CP Adeyinka Adeleke, confirmed the clash.

CP Adeyinka said, “It is one person that was shot and hospitalized and not six as being speculated.

“Another person was shot and hospitalized yesterday (Saturday). They’re fighting because of the burial of the King.”

It was learnt that trouble started when some of the Okere-Urhobo youths went to Obahor area and the Okere market which is being shared by the two ethnic groups to enforce an order.

They had requested every shop owner to lock up in honour of the final rite of passage of the late Orosuen of Okere-Urhobo Kingdom, HRM.(Prof.) Oghenero Paul Oghenero, Idama II yesterday (Saturday).

The Okere-Urhobo youths were, however, resisted on the grounds that commercial shops cannot be closed down in their domain, stressing that when the late Olu of Warri, HRM Ogiame Atuwatse II died, nobody was asked to lock up shops in Warri, especially in Okere market.
In the process, a serious argument ensued which led to a serious fight with guns and other dangerous weapons.

Everybody wants a plane... Seun should get one too

Justice Nkeonye Maha, of the federal high court sitting in Abuja has convicted six undergraduates for internet related offences.

Those sentenced identified as Quarshie Nnamdi, Emmanuel Ogbole, Charles Iwu, Nuhu Usman, Ademoyegu Samson and Adunmo Sesan.

Maha convicted and sentenced them to varying terms ranging from three to six months imprisonment, with option of fines N300,000, after they pleaded guilty to all the charges preferred against them by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

While sentencing the convicts, the judge ordered them to forfeit some of the items seized from them. The items include, laptops, phones among others recovered from them during investigations to the Federal Government. Maha also ordered the convicts to sign an undertaking to be of good behaviour and never to be involved in any other form of fraud within and outside the country, adding that failure to comply will attract judicial sanctions.

She ordered the convicts to refund all the monies fraudulently obtained from their victims. Earlier, the EFCC prosecution counsel, George Chia-Yakua informed the court that in June, the convicts were in possession of document of Scanned FBI Logos and U.S. Naval Seal.

The anti graft agency also said the convicts were caught with documents labelled U.S. Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces purportedly signed by Lt.- Gen. T.T Luis Rodulf and U.S Army Judge, Fort Knox, among others, which they knew contained false information. Yakua, said the offence contravened the provisions of Sections 33 of the Cybercrime Prohibition & Prevention Act, 2015 and section 6 of the Advance Fee Fraud and Other Fraud Related Offences Act, 2006.

However, due to the plea bargain agreements separately entered between them and the EFCC, the original charges were replaced with the amended charges as presented before the court on Friday.

Curvy Ghana-based Gambian actress Princess Shyngle has revealed what female celebrities go through just to maintain their expensive lifestyle.

According to her, many female celebs do disgusting things. She shared this on a video via her Instagram account...

She said, “You go on social media and you see a lot of Instagram models or celebrities living this life that you think is the best life, traveling and having all the designers, and you think they are happy but trust me, most of them are miserable. They are sad, they are full of regrets because they’ve done so many terrible things to achieve all these goodies that you see them flaunting on social media. These are people that don’t have peace of mind.

“These are people that are so unhappy. Because they are either sleeping with somebody’s husband for money or they are sleeping with some governor or some senators, all these rich guys that would give them the lifestyle that they want. These are men that they don’t love, these are men that they are not attracted to, these are men that they are actually disgusted by”

I would appreciate them in helping us as well to address the belief our people have and the reality that there are many persons from Nigeria dealing in drugs in our country"- Dr. Grace Naledi Mandisa Pandor, South African Minister of International Relations.
Is this the sort of thing that ought to be said by the South African government when we are still in mourning and when we have not even buried our compatriots that were cruelly slain, bludgeoned to death and cut to pieces in the streets of South Africa?

At a time when this irresponsible, insensitive, shameless, conflicted, self-hating, pitiful and mendacious creature that has been described as the foreign minister of South Africa should be apologizing to the Nigerian people for the mindless savagery and barbarity of her blood-crazed compatriots, she is pointing accusing fingers at their victims and the objects of their collective hate and seeking to demonise them. What have we done to deserve this? First, you kill us then you seek to justify it and demonize us!

Does this she-devil of a Foreign Minister really believe that innocent Nigerian men, women, and children should be butchered at will in the streets of South Africa by bloodthirsty and bestial mobs?

Worse still does she think it is right and proper that this is done with the full endorsement and support of both the South African government and police? Is that the way forward? Is that the way to build bridges in Africa and enhance peace and stability on the continent?

Can such behaviour be justified or defended under any circumstances? What would she do or think if the Nigerian government and people decided to reciprocate and mete the same treatment out to South Africans that reside in Nigeria and South African companies that are situated here?

In any case, how many of those that were butchered over the years were drug dealers? If it is true that as many Nigerians deal in drugs as she has suggested, why can't the South African Government apprehend, arrest and prosecute them and send them to jail rather than demonize, misrepresent, target and kill innocent and defenceless Nigerians?

This is a clear case of racial stereotyping and a squalid and shameful attempt to justify hate, racism, xenophobia, self-hate, black on black violence and mass murder. Permit me to educate the South African
Foreign Minister and set the record straight.

There are thousands of Nigerian professionals, academics, lecturers, intellectuals, businessmen, scientists, engineers and doctors in your country working hard, doing a great job and contributing massively to your development and economy.

The fact that your people hate Nigerians and enjoy killing us has nothing to do with drugs, human-trafficking or drug-trafficking. It is because your people are hateful, ignorant, xenophobic, lazy, racist and envious of ours.

And the few irresponsible Nigerians that go to South Africa and indulge in terrible and unforgivable crimes like drug and human trafficking and gang-related violence do so only because your people have a terrible weakness, an undue fascination and an insatiable appetite for hard drugs, alcohol, prostitutes, men and women of easy virtue and the dark, ugly and wild side of life.

It is therefore not surprising that South Africa has, for the better part of the last 25 years, been described as the "world's capital for homicide" and the country with the "highest number of people that have been afflicted with HIV AIDS!"

Rather than work hard, like their Nigerians counterparts, South Africans prefer to go to sleazy and cheap nightclubs, gamble on the gaming machines and poker tables, drink huge amounts of beer, take massive amounts of hard drugs and stay at home, watch television and sleep. They are not particularly good at anything except singing beautiful songs and killing other Africans.

It is for this singular reason that their women love and respect Nigerian men and have nothing but contempt for their own. Generally speaking, Nigerian men are strong, productive, virile, focused, courageous, industrious, adventurous and hard-working with a touch of arrogance and they excel in all their ways. Sadly, the average South African male does not possess these virtues.

It does not stop there. For the better part of the last 50 years, Nigeria has been the major military and economic power in Africa and we have used our wealth, power and influence wisely and expeditiously to the advantage of many countries on the continent.

For example, had it not been for us the minority white Boers would still be ruling over the black South Africans and apartheid would still have been firmly in place.

We nationalized British Petroleum and Barclays Bank because of them in the late 1970s and thereby compelled the British to accept our demand of black majority rule in South Africa and Zimbabwe and to stop supporting apartheid and their white minority governments.

We are far ahead of South Africa in terms of education and virtually every other sphere of human endeavour and we have opened up our country for them to come and invest in.

Today Nigeria is by far the biggest market for their expertise, products, goods, and services and if that market were to ever be closed to them or their companies nationalized it would affect their economy enormously.

The truth is that they benefit far more from and make far more money from us today than we benefit and make money from them.

In a trade war, they have far more to lose than we do because not that many Nigerian companies have invested heavily in and operate in South Africa whilst many South African companies have invested heavily in and operate in Nigeria.

As a matter of fact, some of those companies make more money from the Nigerian market and their Nigerian operations than they do in the whole of the rest of Africa put together. That is what we have offered and given them and yet they have offered and given us next to nothing in return. All we get from them are insults, violence, and heartache!

Historically and in every other way they are very much our juniors. Our people were educated at Oxford, Cambridge and the very best universities in the world since 1860. South African blacks never went to a real university until the 1990s after apartheid fell.

We have liberated and brought peace, justice, and stability to many African countries and been a blessing to the Africa continent for many decades despite our present challenges.

Whether it be Angola, Mozambique, Congo, Zimbabwe, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia, Ethiopia, Eritrea, Ghana, Namibia, Sierra Leonne, Liberia, Sao Tome and Principe, Sudan, Chad, Niger, and so many others: we were there in full force with our money, our arms, our logistical support and in some cases our troops.

We shed blood and our blood was shed for other African countries over the years yet all we get in return are insults.

If you say Nigerians are drug pushers and human traffickers then I will say that South Africans are losers, racists, drop-outs, failures and genocidal maniacs.

Worse still had the white Boers not built up South Africa it would still be a barren land and the black population would still be nothing but slaves that live in filthy and squalid little townships.

Despite all the razzmatazz and great public relations about being a happy and prosperous "rainbow nation" where everyone is so happy and is treated so well, the truth is that South Africa remains a country with a black body and a white head.

I say this because even though political control and leadership has been ceded to the blacks, 80% of the multi-national corporations, big business, industry, the private sector, and the economy and 90% of the choicest land, the biggest farms and the best farmlands still remain in the hands of the white minority.

Given this, is it any wonder that black South Africans are literally going mad and are so deeply frustrated and filled with hatred and bitterness?

They have nothing and, unlike in the days of Oliver Tambo, Nelson Mandela and Thabo Mbeki (all great and inspiring men of strength, courage, wisdom, conviction and profound wisdom) other than a handful of new political leaders who are essentially corrupt, weak, fearful, divided, conflicted and uninspiring token niggers and Uncle Toms (with the possible exception of a bright, courageous and rising young star by the name of Julius Malema), their prospects of ever amounting to anything over the next 100 years is very dim.

The real power still resides in the hands of the minority white Boers and the prospects for a prosperous and bright future lies heavily in their favour at the expense of the majority of blacks.

If only the South Africans knew and remembered their history and considered ours they would be praying for Nigeria and thanking us every day rather than insulting and killing us.

Without our support and the pressure we brought to bear, the great Nelson Mandela may never have been freed and the ANC and its armed wing would not have received the massive and robust funding and support that it did throughout the 1960s, 1970's and 1980s.

Together with the Cubans and the Libyans, Nigeria did more for the liberation of South Africa and South African majority rule than any other nation in the world.

What the South Africans are doing to Nigerians today makes me regret the fact that we did so much for them in the past. They have repaid our good with evil and consequently evil will never leave their doorstep. They have shed our blood for no just cause and the heavens will respond and avenge us. They have made us weep and shed tears for our compatriots and they shall pay a heavy price!

The South African Foreign Minister and those that share her racist and deplorable disposition and xenophobic views should consider these facts and the implications of her words and actions before she ventures to open her fat, ugly and very undiplomatic mouth to speak untruths and garbage about Nigeria and Nigerians again.

Failing to do so may provoke a series of events and reprisals which would result in the final demystification and humiliation of the "rainbow nation" and the unending and everlasting disgrace of its people.

Make no mistake about it, even a Nigeria in her weakened state and with all our challenges is still big and strong enough to bring South Africa to its knees. And if the killing and mass murder of our people does not stop that is precisely what will happen. A word is enough for the wise.
Permit me to conclude this contribution with the following.

Many years ago in the early to mid-1970s, when apartheid was alive and well in South Africa and when I was a young student at Harrow, which remains undoubtedly the best private school in England, I broke the jaw of a blond, blue-eyed English-speaking white South African fellow student who said some very nasty things about black South Africans during a history class.

During a heated debate about racial segregation and the South African Mixed Race Act which made it a criminal offence for blacks and whites to get married or have sexual relations, he got up and said, before the entire class, that "allowing those dirty black dogs to touch our beautiful and pure white women is sacrilege. It is against the laws of God! It is like getting a monkey to mate with a human being!"

Finally, he said, "no sane white woman would ever want to have sex with a black African monkey and any of them that do should be sent to jail".

I reacted swiftly and without any hesitation. Without any warning or even words of anger, I left my desk, walked up to him and broke his jaw with one clean blow from my right fist. He never knew what hit him!

I remember hearing and enjoying the way his jaw popped open and cracked. It was a strange noise and as he hit the floor his legs started to shake uncontrollably after which he lost consciousness.

For one horrendous moment I thought I had killed him but thankfully, eventually his eyes opened, he sat up and he was rushed to the hospital on a stretcher.

He hailed from one of the biggest and richest white families in South Africa who were (and still are) in the diamond mining business and I almost got expelled from Harrow for my "wild and unruly" behaviour until I gave my reasons for hitting him to the school authorities.

They were shocked and equally appalled by what he had said, which they rightly regarded as a grave and reckless provocation, and they decided to let me off the hook.

I was reprimanded and warned and I remember that the headmaster wrote a formal letter about the incident to my father who was livid with me for (almost) jeopardizing my entire academic career because of a racial slight and slur.

Papa said, "You didn't have to hit him and almost kill the poor boy. You could have just attempted to educate him in a civilized manner and at the worst insult him back!"

Yet, I had no regrets or remorse about my course of action or the choice that I made and to my eternal credit, I never apologized for my action to the South African, the school authorities, my father or anyone else.

The truth is that I was proud of what I did and I believed that defending the honour of my black South African colleagues was far more important than staying at Harrow. I was prepared to risk it all by physically assaulting the white boy and I did.

My gamble paid off and the South African boy, as sober as ever, never insulted or spoke ill of blacks again in my prescence. As a matter of fact, we ended up becoming friends in the following years and I will never forget what he told me just before we left Harrow in 1977. I remember the words because I wrote them down at the time and have meditated on them for years.

He said, "You don't understand the Bantus (black South Africans)."
He went on to say, "The day they get power in South Africa is the day that South Africa will begin to die. Since the 17th century, we Boers built up everything there and they contributed nothing. We fought the Zulus and later the British and we built and developed that land with our flesh, sweat, and blood. Giving a country like South Africa to them is like giving a monkey a loaded gun. They will use it to kill everyone around them and eventually they will kill themselves. They are not like you Nigerians: they have no history or class. They are un-enlightened, ungrateful, primitive, uncouth and very backward and one day the rest of Africa will know them for what they are!"

Judging from the words of the South African foreign minister and the xenophobic and racist disposition of the South African president, government and people, it appears that that day has finally come.

Nigerian actor/politician Yul Edochie has shared his perspective towards the discovery that the problem pertaining to the country was not the leaders.

Yul Edochie who was the Democratic Peoples Congress’ candidate to run for the governor of Anambra State shared his thoughts on Twitter.

According to him, before he went fully into politics, he thought the problems was from the leaders, until he realized that the citizens play a major role when it comes to the nation’s problems.


He was of the view that people will readily support and vote for a rich criminal who is running for the same position as a poor but honest candidate.

He wrote:
“I always thought our problem was our leaders till I joined politics and realized the people are also a big part of the problem.
“If you run for office and you don’t have money to share, even your village people will leave you and support a well known kidnapper who is sharing money”

The father of four also condemned Nigerians who migrate to other countries in search of greener pastures.

He said that most of these people move to countries where they are treated like third class citizens when they could stay in Nigeria and help fix the country.

“Yes our leaders have failed us for so long but running out of the country is not the best option. Who go fix am?
“Then we are treated as 3rd class citizens abroad. We need all hands on deck, all voices.
“The fewer the opposition, the easier it is for the oppressor to carry on”
