Abuja – The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) says it is working toward placing corps members on a public service salary scale to stop frequent agitation for a review of their allowances.

Its Director-General, Brig. Gen. Johnson Olawumi, said this at a media chat on Tuesday in Abuja.

He said that already, the scheme was collaborating with the National Salaries and Wages Commission to concretise the proposal.

Olawumi said that the scheme had made series of attempts at the National Assembly to secure an adjustment in the allowances of the corps members, adding that such attempts had been unsuccessful.

He said that the scheme had taken the matter before the wages commission for a solution, adding that the current N19, 800 monthly allowances for corps members was inadequate in view of the economic situation in the country.

The NYSC boss also announced the resuscitation of the Presidential Award to corps members who had excelled in their service to the nation, adding that the 2013 and 2014 editions would hold this year.

“It (award) was instituted in 1974 with the purpose of rewarding corps members that distinguished themselves through selfless service to their host communities.

“The 2012 and 2013 editions of the award will be hosted later in the year along with the 2014 edition and preparations are already in top gear in this regard.’’

On request for corps members’ relocation, Olawumi said that such requests were approved only on marital and health grounds.

“However, with the current security situation in some states of the country, the scheme applies the doctrine of necessity when corps members apply for relocation on security reasons.

“In such instances, the corps members get relocated automatically; but not to a state of their choice.’’

He, however, warned that the scheme had concluded arrangement to punish those corps members who presented fake health report to aid their relocation, addi

ng that the drastic action would be applied to all those caught in the act to serve as a lesson to others.

Meanwhile, Olawumi said that more than 2.7 million graduates had passed through the scheme since its inception in 1975. (NAN)

MUST READ...federal Government exhumes body of Nysc corps member who died in kano camp

Government has hinted that the body of the youth corps member, Ifedolapo Oladepo, who died recently at the Kano State NYSC Orientation Camp, will be exhumed for autopsy.

The Minister of Youths and Sports, Mr. Solomon Dalung, dropped the hint on Thursday while addressing State House correspondents.
The National Youths Service Corps had, in its investigation’s report, said the girl, a first-class graduate of Transportation Management from Ladoke Akintola University Ogbomosho, died of a kidney infection.


President Muhammadu Buhari had yesterday ordered an independent investigation into the circumstances that led to the death of Ifedolapo who has since been buried.
But the sports minister explained today that the independent investigation ordered by Buhari would require an autopsy to balance the government’s conclusion on the incident.


“The report given by NYSC is normal and it’s natural that after investigation, they must present their own report on what has happened. But in view of the fact that there are many versions on what led to the death of the NYSC member, it would be fair to look at another version of what happened to be sure of what actually transpired.

It doesn’t have to do with (President Buhari) not trusting the process; but gauge the report alongside other opinion; then, we’ll now be able to tell Nigerians that there were the circumstances on how she died.


“Don’t forget that the report of the NYSC has no autopsy and an independent investigation will require an autopsy. And now, the autopsy, alongside the report, will balance and it will fortify the conclusion the government will make,”.

MUST READ:, man kills his wife and slits her throat

A man has slit the throat of his wife and mother
of five in Oshodi,Lagos. The suspect, Sogei
Jafairu , who hails from Etsako Central Local
Government Area of Edo state, was suspected to
have committed the act for ritual purpose. He
was said to have returned home Thursday
evening, after spending one week outside. His
unsuspecting wife, Roselyn , who was a trader at
Ijora market, prepared food for members of the
family . But the food was alleged to have been
poisoned by her husband, who also ate with her.
At about 1am, Jafaru was said to have been seen
pacing around his one room and parlour
apartment. He was said to have also been sighted
licking some black substance suspected to be
concoction to neutralise the poisoned food he ate
with his wife.
Thereafter, he allegedly slit his wife’s throat with
a knife, while she was sleeping. Saturday
Vanguard gathered that he attempted to stuff
the lifeless body inside a container when he
suddenly started vomiting. One of their children ,
Richmond Sogei (16) narrated the incident when
Vanguard visited. He said
“My daddy and mummy never ate together since
I grew up knowing them as my parents. We only
saw them eating together for the very first time
yesterday (Thursday) .Mummy came back from
the market with some drinks she said we would use
to celebrate Children’s Day today (yesterday) “We
were surprised when we saw them eating beans
and garri from same plate but concluded that it
could be as a result of my kid sister’s birthday
that was celebrated same day.
We all went to bed without any thought of the
unexpected. But at 3am my daddy woke me up
and instructed me to go and meet my mum in the
bedroom. I left the sitting room where I slept with
my aunt and three siblings. As I was going to
urinate, I saw daddy vomiting in the bathroom. I
went outside to urinate and when I came back, I
saw him lying down in the bathroom. When I
flashed the torchlight, I noticed that he was
vomiting some black substance.
He also excreted on himself. Out of fear, I rushed
to wake my aunt up to assist daddy. I also told
her to wake mummy up to come and help daddy
but she said that mummy was not responding.
When I went inside and flashed my torchlight at
her, I saw that the bed she laid on was socked
with blood. On closer observation, I discovered a
deep cut on her throat and passed out.
“Daddy initially said somebody broke into the
room and K!lled mummy but we discovered that
the gate was locked. Later he said I was the one
that K!lled my mummy. How can I K!ll a mother
that has been playing the role of a father to us?.
She was even sponsoring my elder brother, Collins
who just gained admission into the University. She
was the bread winner . Twice, we have been sent
packing by our landlords at Michael and Banjoko
streets because daddy could not pay the rent.
Why would anyone think of K!lling such person? “,
he asked, crying.
Vanguard also gathered that the suspect had
been beating the deceased before the incident
occurred. On one of the occasions, she had
threatened to quit the marriage. A relative of the
deceased, Feronica Imomoh , revealed that the
suspect accused his wife of infidelity. She said:
“Our family had warned him to stop beating my
sister . He does not have any job, she was the one
feeding him and paying the rent. Anytime she
collected gifts from her relatives, he would
quarrel with her, accusing her of sleeping with
men. There was a time he took her to our village
in Edo State to swear before a shrine that she was
not cheating on him. Just yesterday (Thursday)
he demanded N10, 000 from her. She promised to
raise the money by borrowing from her friends”.
Jafaru who attempted to escape was
apprehended by sympathisers until the arrival of
policemen from Akinpelu who whisked him away
and removed the corpse. Meanwhile, all
apartments and shops at the two storey building
located were under lock and key, as their
occupants have fled, for fear of being arrested
by the police. When contacted, Deputy
Spokesperson for the Lagos State Police Command,
Mr. Chukwuma Ozoani , a Deputy Superintendent of
Police said that the suspect had been transferred
to the State Criminal Investigation and
Intelligence Department for further investigation.
He said:”It was a murder case and the husband
was suspected to be under the influence of drug.
The case has been transferred to the SCID and
investigation has commenced.”

10 Tips On How To Make Your Relationship And Love Stronger

Love is like a garden. If you tend it and nurture, then it will grow
and mature into a beautiful thing, but, if you take it for granted
and you don’t look after it, regrettably, it will wither and die. Just
like a garden there are things that you can do that will make your
relationship even stronger and long lasting, so read our ten tips
and it may help to make your relationship bloom:

1. Make time for one another

Our first tip on how to make your relationship stronger is –
make time for one another. Whatever is on your busy schedule for
today, it’s not more important than spending some quality time
with your partner. Just a thoughtful question or a sympathetic ear
is enough to show that you care and quality time together will
help to build that lasting bond.

2. Meet your partner half way

One of the most important things that you can learn in a
relationship is the art of compromise. You are not going to agree
on all things at all times, but if you are both prepared to, and
strive to find a middle way, both of you will be happier and you
will appreciate the other person’s compromise.

3. Be honest and open

Another tip on how to make your relationship stronger is –
always be honest with your partner. If you can’t trust and believe
your partner, then who can you trust? Be honest and open with
each other, especially in trying times, and you will be rewarded
with a lifelong friend, as well as a lifelong lover.

4. Keep your promises

Our next tip on how to make your relationship stronger is – do
what you promised. However insignificant they may appear to be,
your promises are important, so keep them. To have a really strong
relationship, there must be no doubt; you and your partner should
be as solid and as reliable, as a rock for each other. There will
be times when you both will need that reliability to fall back on.

5. Express your love every single day

Complacency breeds contempt, so don’t take it for granted that
your partner knows that you love them, tell them! We’re all a little
insecure at heart and it’s always nice to be reminded that someone
loves us and don’t just leave it until Valentine’s day either, all year
round affirmation of love is what will make a relationship strong.

6. Learn from arguments

Lifelong partners don’t ride roughshod over one another and
ignore the things that cause arguments, they learn from them
instead. Treat every argument, as a learning experience; it will
help you to understand each other better and make you a stronger
partnership.

7. Focus on the qualities that you love and learn
to love the qualities that you dislike

Another tip on how to make your relationship stronger is – keep
positive focus. When you focus on what makes your partner a
wonderful person, your love will grow stronger and stronger. Love
even those little annoying traits, as these are a part of what makes
a person unique and special, so embrace those too and love the
person as a whole.

8. Be together, but be independent

The romantic notion of two becoming one is fine for the poets,
but the reality is that the strongest relationships are built on the
basis of two unique, interesting and independent individuals,
working together towards common goals, as a team. Your freedom
to be yourself is just as important, as your commitment to the
partnership.

9. Say what you really mean

No one likes a riddle and not many of us can claim to be mind-
readers either, so speaking your mind in relationship makes things a
whole lot easier. Having the confidence in one another to be able
to say what you think is a sign of a level of trust, that you don’t
find in less important relationships.

10. Give the same level of respect, love and care
that you expect to receive
In a strong relationship, no one

 of the partners deserves any more
respect, love and care, than the other. It is a partnership of equals
and mutual respect is the cornerstone of a happy and healthy
relationship.

MUST SEE::Ways to removing wrinkles from uour face for grandma's ...could also work for u if you have wrinkles

Grandmas are looking better than ever. They look even more radiant and youthful than they did when they were years younger! Many have tried to discover their secret: is it botox, face lifts, or just good lighting?

The truth is much simpler (and cheaper!) than that. It isn't their makeup that's causing them to look decades younger. After many years of trying, our sources finally uncover the truth behind the anti-aging secret that has taken Hollywood by storm - and it's one that clever women around the world have been secretly using too.

"The Miracle Anti-Aging Breakthrough - Because It Works!"

The Best Skin Solution You've Never Heard Of

Instead of throwing away precious Dollars on expensive anti-aging skin Creams that make big promises and don't work, one reader has discovered a skin product that erases years off her face for only a few Dollars. Read on to find out how it works!

"Lauren di Fiores was able to remove over 20 years of aging from her face with just 1 simple product!"

Lauren, a 72 year-old grandma from London, is a perfect example of how a little smart thinking and ingenuity can help you avoid unnecessary health risks and save you thousands of Dollars in doctors' bills.

Like most women, Lauren didn't have the extra cash to try out every celebrity endorsed anti-aging "miracle Cream" out there, let alone splurge on expensive elective medical procedures, like plastic surgery or facelifts.

Before trying this simple trick, she admits she used to spend almost an hour every day on an extensive skincare regimen consisting of over 6 different products, with seriously disappointing results. Each product made big claims promising to erase wrinkles and return her youthful skin; and while Lauren followed all their usage instructions to the letter, she saw no real results.

Frustrated and let down, she considered going so far as to take out a substantial loan for Botox injections, and even contemplated a highly risky and very expensive facelift procedure. But the high cost (ranging anywhere from $5000 - $20,000+) and the horror stories of unfixable botched procedures convinced her that cosmetic treatments were not the solution she was looking for. She was determined to find a safe and affordable anti-aging solution that would give her real results and not leave her digging her way out of a huge financial debt.

Lauren's Solution:

After a year of doing thorough research and speaking to other women about their own skincare habits, she learned of a product that was yielding real results and helping women take years off their skin: TruVisage.

After only a few days of adding TruVisage to her daily skin routine, she saw noticeable results in the mirror. After just two weeks the proof was staring her right in the face: this was giving her real results.

Using TruVisage, Lauren's results were noticeably better than what you'd find at medi-spas for $5,000 or more. This removed virtually 90% of all her wrinkles and problem areas. It tightened her face and neck, removing all signs of sagging, aging, and dehydrated skin. Lauren was able to see these dramatic anti-aging results simply by using afree sample of TruVisage for only 14 days.

Her friends, husband, and family were all shocked. They were convinced she'd been secretly getting Botox, because her skin looked 20 years younger almost overnight! Soon, word got around as her friends starting using Lauren's secret, and not long after, her easy discovery was featured on The Doctor Oz Show!

Lauren is now one of hundreds of women that share the same incredible story. Using this method, she effectively erased 20+ years from her skin. It's changed her life and completely astonished everyone around her, even total strangers!

How does it Work?

Through her research, Lauren discovered that the real secret to TruVisage are two key ingredients:

• TruVisage's Patented Rejuvenation Formula
• Pure Aloe Vera

These are both natural ingredients that work together to erase wrinkles and fine lines at the cellular level - below the surface of the skin - which is why they're so effective.

TruVisage's Patented Rejuvenation Formula is the key to maintaining healthy, youthful skin. It's a powerful antioxidant that slows the rate of free-radical damage, which causes skin's dryness, fine lines, and wrinkles. It helps combat and even reverse time's effect on your skin, because it produces collagen - a protein which makes skin appear plump and firm.

Pure Aloe Vera works by binding to moisture. It can hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water, making it an excellent natural skin plumper. Pure Aloe Vera helps your skin repair and regenerate itself after suffering from dryness, environmental stresses, or irritation.

People Everywhere Are Talking

A prominent dermatologist based in Beverly Hills, California, revealed to us that TruVisage is the celebrity secret to youthful skin because it contains the purest and most powerful forms of TruVisage's Patented Rejuvenation Formula and Pure Aloe Vera. Best of all it's all-natural, perfectly safe for all skin types, and has no nasty side effects.

What TruVisage's Patented Rejuvenation Formula & Pure Aloe Vera do is get rid of all the old, dead layers of skin and help your skin generate fresh new ones. Our tests show that you can erase almost 20 to 30 years off your face in less than 14 days. But the key is to choose the Creams and serums that contain the highest and purest quality ingredients, since they're not all the same.

Lauren's Story & 14 Day TruVisage Results:

"The trick is that TruVisage contains high concentrations of pure TruVisage's Patented Rejuvenation Formula and Pure Aloe Vera in just the right concentrations. I also discovered that it contains all sorts of anti-oxidants, an ingredient called Dermaxyl (also known as facelift in a jar) and Ester-C (the active anti-aging compound in TruVisage's Patented Rejuvenation Formula). The instructions were easy to follow but very specific: they're important to follow precisely because it does make a visible difference. You apply just a light coat of TruVisage on your face and neck after washing and drying your face just before bed time. I saw results almost overnight, but after 14 days, the results were literally shocking. I looked how I used to look 20 years ago!" - Lauren

Day 1:

After the first day of using TruVisage, I was surprised at how wonderful it made my skin feel. It felt like every last pore on my face was being tightened and pulled by a gigantic vacuum cleaner.

I don't know how else to describe it! I could feel a warm tingling sensation on my cheeks, around my eyes, and on my forehead. I looked in the mirror and saw that my face looked a bit rosy - the result of revitalizing blood rushing to the surface of my skin to renew my face. After TruVisage was absorbed into my skin, my face looked firmer and had a beautiful glow to it.

Day 5:

After five days of using TruVisage, I was shocked at the drastic results.

The lines, dark spots, and wrinkles - without question - were visibly reduced in size right before my eyes!

I was astonished by the results, and literally felt 20 years younger again. It was like watching all my wrinkles and fine lines vanish right off!

Day 14:

After 14 days, not only had all my doubts and skepticism absolutely vanished - SO DID MY WRINKLES!

The lines on my forehead, the loose, sagging skin on my neck, my crows' feet - even the age spots on my face had COMPLETELY disappeared. I've never felt or seen anything tighten my skin with this kind of force before, no matter how expensive the product!

After the 2 weeks, my skin not only stayed that way, it actually improved every day until it became as beautiful and radiant as it was 20 years ago. By this point, all my friends and family were shocked. They couldn't believe the difference, and were convinced I was lying about not getting botox!

Will This Work For You?

There are plenty of skincare gimmicks out there, and most of them are ridiculously expensive. With so many options it's only natural for you to be skeptical about the results, and so I challenge you to do what I did: try it for yourself! Conduct your own study and see the incredible results in your mirror at home. You won't believe YOUR before and after!

Once you've experienced this anti-aging skin savior for yourself, please leave your comments below and share your success story with others, like Lauren did. Document the progression and prove to the world that you don't need to spend thousands of Dollars to LOOK AND FEEL GREAT.

For your convenience, I have provided the links that Lauren used to sign up for her Free Trial of TruVisage. Use the links below and you will get the lowest possible shipping price as well.

Remember, TruVisage comes with a 100% satisfaction guarantee or full money back. With the discounted shipping costs you will be on your way to smooth skin for under $5. But hurry, these incredible free trials won't last forever.

Wana learn how to make beads???? Den don't miss thiss!!!

About Bead Making in Nigeria and the Rest of
Africa
Bead making has been a long time occupation and
trade for many Nigerian households who make beads
for sale. Today, beading provides employment to
many and is the sole sustenance and source of
income for most African families.
With bead making, you can string beads together to
make assorted fashion jewelry such as necklaces,
earrings, bracelets, purse, hand-bags, belts, flower
vases. Brides on low budget have been known to
make beads used as bridal accessories in their
traditional wedding. Young girls make such wedding
hairpieces, long and short Nigerian traditional beads
for brides as well as for grooms to wear on their
traditional engagement and wedding occasion.
Almost all peoples from every African country wear
beads as a fashion accessory, as well as to beautify
fabrics and domestic hardware, and these tribal beads
are made in Africa by the locals. The beauty of African
beads is that you can tell the source of any African
bead from their colours and designs and styles. Just
by looking, you can tell the Nigerian beads, the
Ghana beads, the Kenyan beads, the South African
beads or any other. These days, a lot of the Western
beads are inspired by the African tribal beads.

Must see: update on boko haram rocket making factory

The Nigerian military has debunked pictures of the
rocket-making factory being displayed by the Boko
Haram terrorists as fake, saying the intention is to
deceive members of the public on the insurgents’
potency.
Some photographs purported to be sites of the
insurgents’ bomb-making factories in the North-
east region allegedly released by Boko Haram were
displayed on some online platforms last week.
However, a top military chief has dismissed the
pictures as a propaganda strategy of “a desperate
and defeated terrorist group”, saying that the
unveiled photos of its rocket-making factory, was
that of Bama in Borno State, which has long been
destroyed by the military.
The source insisted that “what the Boko Haram is
displaying with the images allegedly being their
rocket-making factory is deceptive. What you
should ask is why didn’t they put it on video as
they would normally do?
“Secondly, they do not currently possess the
capacity to do such a thing because they are cash-
starved and have lost their safe havens. I can tell
you that this is an old picture of their Bama
factory, which was destroyed a long time ago.
These photos are just part of their political and
psychological warfare to pretend as if they have
the capacity to do those kinds of things”, the
source added.
The source also noted that Boko Haram terrorists
are currently cash-starved, lacked the manpower
and as well as territory to manufacture such
rockets.
Investigations also revealed that the expected flow
of cash, resources and intelligence from the Islamic
State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) has been truncated by
the recent developments in the Middle East.
“The point is that right now, Boko Haram lacks
such capacity to manufacture the rockets in display
because the ISIS they are depending on for cash
are under immense pressure from the American and
Russians bombardment in Syria and Iraq. So
funding right now is difficult for them,” the source
said.
Also, THISDAY findings further revealed that there
is ma$$ive desertion by Boko Haram fighters, who
are currently testifying and identifying key members
of the sect. According to intelligence sources, the
recent display of 100 key Boko Haram figures, was
helped by the information supplied by the
surrendering terrorists.
One of the reliable sources stated: “I can tell you
authoritatively that what you are seeing in terms of
Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) and the
causing of panic within the Metropolitan areas is
that the enemy are being dislodged from Sambisa
forest. The terrorists are in distress, and running
up and down without a safe haven. They are
surrendering in droves and the number of the
surrendering we have been having recently made it
clear that the people they conscripted have all
along been looking for a way of escape.
“You know that Federal Government recently
launched ‘Operation Safe Corridor’ upon which a
lot of the terrorists have surrendered with more
coming out to lay down their arms and we are still
profiling them. The Committee that the President
set up with the Defence Intelligence Agency (DIA)
and the three state governors of Adamawa, Borno
and Yobe is working towards this goal.
“The next phase now is that we are engaged in
psychological operations; a lot of leaflets are being
dropped from the sky over the Sambisa forest,
which is giving the terrorists a lot of hope that if
they surrender, they won’t be victimised. So we
have given them ‘Safe Corridor’ to surrender and
warning those that have failed to do so that if at
the expiration of this Amnesty, they will be
arrested,” the source added.
Meanwhile, the Chief of Army Staff (CoAS), Lt-Gen.
Tukur Yusufu Buratai, in continuation of his
operational visits to formations and units
particularly those within the Area of Responsibility
of Operation Lafiya Dole, yesterday visited troops of
21 Brigade at Bama, Borno State.
In his address to the troops, Buratai reminded
them of their mandate and deadline to clear the
pockets of Boko Haram terrorists within their area
of responsibility before the end of December which
he strongly believes is possible looking at their
high spirit.
He recalled that “the gallant troops librated Bama
from the criminal Boko Haram terrorists on 16
March 2015”, and urged them to always be alert.
The highlight of the visit was on the spot
promotion and decoration of two soldiers of the
Brigade by the COAS for their gallantry, dedication
and loyalty from the rank of Lance Corpor*l to
Corpor*l, an event that further lifted the mor*le of
not only the beneficiaries but the whole Brigade.
The elevated soldiers include Corpor*l Thomas
Orim of 202 Battalion and Corpor*l Abubakar Usman
of 150 Task Force Battalion.
Buratai also visited other locations of the Brigade
at Konduga, Awulari and Kwanar Banki on the
fringes of Sambisa Forest where he met troops in
high spirit and enjoined them to continue to do
their best in order to defeat the Boko Haram
terrorists.

Robbers force LAUTECH students to have $ex with one another

A student of Ladoke Akintola University of
Technology, Ogbomoso, Oyo State has narrated
how robbers invaded their hostel,raping them and
forcing them to have $ex with each other..In
tears,Bimbola (not real name) agreed to narrate her
ordeal to a Punch correspondent last Monday.
What she pa$$ed through in August was painful,
unimaginable and dehumanising. In fact, she might
not be able to forget that night in her life.Ever
since the incident, everything about her has
changed, according to her friend.
In the night of August 13, 2015 – around 12
midnight – she said she and her roommate had
returned from a night reading cla$$ in preparation
for their forthcoming exam in November, locked
their room and were about to sleep when they
heard their hostel mates jamming their doors,
screaming and walking up the hostel stairs.
Before they knew what was happening, the men
were at their door and expectedly, they forced the
door open.
“Come out now or we will kill you,” she recalled
what the men told her and her roommate, and
with fear and trembling, the girls did their
bidding.
Three hefty fearful-looking men, clad in black polos
and jeans, armed with guns, machetes and axes
had stormed their hostel – located in the Under G
Area of Ladoke Akintola University of Technology,
Ogbomoso, Oyo State – and demanded that all the
students, both male and female, should gather in
one room.
While one of the hoodlums stayed with the
students, pointing guns at them should they
‘misbehave,’ the other two locked the entrance to
the hostel, ransacked all rooms one after the other,
stole the students’ laptops, money, debit cards,
tablets and mobile phones.
But even after stealing all their property, the
robbers were not done. The next command they
gave the students was what Bimbola has not yet
got over with.
She narrated,
“They r*ped some girls in our presence, but not
only that, they asked us to start having $ex with
ourselves. They called from among us a guy and
a girl and asked them to have $ex with
themselves, right in everybody’s presence. They
threatened to use their weapons on us if we
didn’t cooperate. Then they asked all of us to
strip nak*d. Since it was in the night, most of us
ladies already had only our night gowns on,
while most of the guys were just putting on
boxers. They said we should all be nak*d. When
they were satisfied, they called another pair of
students to do the same thing and told
everybody to watch.
“For about three hours, they dehumanised us,
humiliated us. Unfortunately, nobody in the next
hostel knew what was going on; if anyone knew,
they would have helped us to call the police or
the Student Union Government officials.”
But what was more pathetic about Bimbola’s story
was that she didn’t just witness the whole action;
she was also asked to have $ex with a guy she
never dated.
“Everything happened like it was a dream. They
pointed at a guy I knew as my junior and asked
him to do ‘it’ with me. When I refused, they
slapped me and I fell. I had no option than to do
it. I looked at my roommate and she was already
shedding tears for me. How humiliated I was!”
she cried.
She further told our correspondent,
“It was not a night to remember. I wish I could
erase it from my memory. My friend and I returned
to the hostel that night after reading in the
school because our exam is fast approaching. If I
knew something like that would happen, I would
have stayed in the school till the morning, but I
needed to prepare for the following day’s work. I
had just finished having a shower when my
roommate and I observed something was wrong.
There was no light, so we couldn’t see properly,
but we observed that our hostel mates were all
jamming their doors at some men’s command.
“They cramped all of us in one of the rooms
upstairs and we were all frightened. My parents
are not yet aware of this incident and I don’t
wish to share it with anyone again. I only agreed
to speak to you because my friend here
encouraged me to and I feel something should be
done by the authorities concerned to stop this
barbarism. I know I’ll be fine soon.”
Since July when they resumed for the semester,
the students of LAUTECH have been witnessing
robbery attacks and r*pe by the same set of
unknown men – who call themselves ‘Three
MOPOLs’ each time they barge into their victims’
hostels.
The Welfare Officer of the Student Union
Government of the institution, Ridwan Okedara,
said he could not count the number of calls he had
received ever since the incident started occurring
in July up till about two weeks ago. He said it was
unfortunate that the hoodlums had yet to be
apprehended.
He said,
“I’ve received calls in the past four months
almost every pa$$ing night about this incident.
Victims and eyewitnesses usually say the
robbers were always three and they would tell
them they were the ‘Three MOPOLS,’ but we are
not sure if they are not even more than that. For
instance, there were some nights when I received
calls that the robbers were operating in the
Adenike Area (a popular students’ residential
area near the school) and I would quickly call our
security officers to go to the said hostel, but few
minutes later, I would receive a call that they
were operating somewhere else.
“Before the security people could get there, the
robbers would have left and we would hear they
had started operating somewhere else. We don’t
know their tactics yet. From what we have heard
from eyewitnesses, they would enter a hostel,
pretend as if they were looking for somebody and
before the students knew it, they would threaten
them with guns and machetes and ask all of them
to be inside one particular room after collecting
their phones, laptops and money. They ask the
students to strip off their clothes – both male
and female, then ask them to start having $ex
with themselves. They could call a male from say
200 Level and ask him to have $ex with say a 400
Level female student.
“These robbers r*pe our students and then ask
the students to have $ex with themselves. We’ve
heard a case when the robbers used white
handkerchiefs to wipe the private parts of the
students after the act. We are also suspecting
ritualism here. They go to hostels anytime from
8pm to 1am and from eyewitnesses’ accounts,
there was usually no light anytime the hoodlums
carried out their operation.”
This is exactly what another victim of robbery in
September by the same
The other victim who spoke with our correspondent
said,
“It was very dark and there was no light to see
their faces when they came to our hostel. They
told us they were the ‘Three MOPOLS,’ and mere
looking at them, we could not imagine how they
were able to gain entry into our hostel and
ordering all of us to go inside one room. We were
told to take off our clothes and they r*ped some
of the girls. They didn’t r*pe me and they didn’t
ask me to have $ex with anyone, but they stole
my laptop and phone. It was traumatic. It was
like experiencing hell that night.”

Chinese billionaire arrested for bank robbery (Photos)

A powerful property tycoon in China has confessed
to robbing a bank 16 years ago and using the
money to start up his ma$$ive empire now worth
billions.
According to Peoples Daily Online, Shi, the 53-
year-old was arrested last week in the central
China’s Zhumadian city for a crime he committed in
December 1999.At the time five armed suspects
broke into a bank in the city of Zhengzhou, injuring
two clerks and walking away with 2.8 million yuan
(£290,000) in cash.On the morning of October 21,
more than 80 undercover police investigators
rushed to the Zhumadian, Henan province, and
arrested five suspects including billionaire Shi.
Shi is said to be well known in Zhumadian for
being an extremely powerful and successful
property tycoon.
He runs a number of businesses including
industrial real estates, development and trade
companies, and leisure farms. All earning him a
fortune. As well as property, he has billions
invested in local businesses and often hosts
regular charity events. All of this has influenced
the community he lives in.
After he was arrested, Shi admitted to breaking into
the bank armed with four suspects and stealing the
money 16 years ago.
Shi told police, before the robbery in the early
1990’s he was not satisfied with his income as a
construction worker. So he gathered a group of
guys who were working as painters for a ‘secret
job.’
Then for three months leading up to the raid they
hatched a plan to rob the bank which included a
well-designed escape route. Doing so they
seriously injured a man was shot in the head and
left in a pool of blood, and a woman. It is unclear
what happened to her.
The whole process which involved the suspects
dressed as business men took just five minutes.
It was a case that shocked the whole country as no
one has ever been arrested since it took place in
1999.
Many of the investigators working on the case are
now retired but they never gave up. From a list of
158 suspects they eventually narrowed it down to
five.16 years later the Zhengzhou City Public
Security Bureau held a press conference to confirm
the mystery of the 1999 bank robbery had
successfully been solved.
A vital piece of evidence in the investigation was a
hammer that was used to brake the bullet proof gla
$$ during the raid.
The police managed to track down its manufacturer
which led them to a market in Zhengzhou where
they were sold. 24 had been bought in the time
leading up to the robbery.
Investigators tracked down the whereabouts of 16
hammers which left eight unaccounted for, which
eventually led them to the five suspects.The
authorities in Zhengzhou said Shi – a construction
project contractor who regularly hosted charity
events – claimed most of the money from the
robbery and used it to develop his real estate in
the southern Chinese city of Zhumadian, earning
him billions.

Melinda Gates' heart warming words for her husband, Bill Gates on his birthday

She shared the post yesterday, October 28 on her Facebook page. The post which was accompanied with a photo of the couple rowing a boat has garnered over 100,000 Likes. She wrote:

"When Bill first asked me out, he said, 'I was thinking maybe we could go out two weeks from tonight.' I told him he wasn’t spontaneous enough for me. So he called me an hour later to suggest we get together that night. He asked: 'Is that spontaneous enough for you?'

"Bill, after two amazing decades together, your humor, drive, intelligence, curiosity, thoughtfulness, optimism – and, yes, your spontaneity– are as wonderful as ever. On land, atsea, and everywhere in between, I’m glad you’re by my side. Happy, birthday."
