A two-year-old toddler, Precious (pseudonym)
has been raped by one Azeez Ganiyu, after she
was abducted from her residence on Giwa
Street, Ijora Badia, Lagos State.
The incident happened on April 16 at about
10am after the victim's mother left her in a
room with a neighbour to buy food at a nearby
shop.
According to PUNCH Metro, 16-year-old Ganiyu
abducted the girl when she walked outside to
play with other children. He reportedly took her
to an uncompleted building, said to be a few
kilometers
away from the victim parents' house, and raped
her.
Precious' mother and neighbours were thrown
into confusion when they did not see the girl in
the surroundings. After minutes of fruitless
search, it was learnt that the mother suddenly
heard a baby screaming and traced the voice to
the uncompleted building, where she allegedly
met Ganiyu committing the crime.
Precious was taken to a hospital where it was
medically confirmed that she had been raped.
And the suspect, who also resides in the
community, was later arrested by the police at
the Ijora Badia Police Division.
The police subsequently arraigned Ganiyu before
an Apapa Magistrate's Court on one count of
rape. The charge read:
"That you, Azeez Abdulganiyu (16), on
April 16, 2015, at about 10am on Giwa
Street, Ijora Badia, Lagos in the Apapa
Magisterial District, did unlawfully have
carnal knowledge of a two-year-old girl."
The police prosecutor, Inspector Olusoji
Ojaokomo, told the court that the offence
contravened provisions of Section 137 of the
Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2011. The
defendant, however, pleaded not guilty before
the court

BOKO HARAM Is Fraud says BUHARI
President-elect,
General Muhammadu Buhari says the Boko
Haram will be denied a recruitment base the
moment our local communities realize that its
claim to being a religious group is nothing but a
fraud.
"The fraud called Boko Haram can be defeated by
denying it a recruitment base," General Buhari
told visiting leaders of Nassarawa State who
came to congratulate him on his emergence as
President-elect.
"No religion allows for the killing of children in
school dormitory, in markets and places of
worship. They have nothing to do with religion.
They are terrorists and we are going to deal with
them as they deal with terrorists anywhere," he
announced.
Buhari said he is greatly pained by the
destruction of schools in the North-eastern part
of the country, an action he said could deny
thousands of youngsters access to education and
a better future unless something was done
urgently to avert this tragedy.
"The worst thing anybody can do is to deny
children access to education. That will be
destructive to their lives and we are not going to
allow that to happen," the President-elect
assured.
He announce that his government will help the
states to get more money to improve
infrastructure by ensuring that all federally
collectible revenues are paid directly into the
federation account and each tier of government
given its due share.
"As at now, the government does not even know
how many revenue accounts it has. We will give
all the tiers what is due to them but will hold
them to be accountable as we would the federal
government."
Buhari while describing Nassarawa state as his
own "political laboratory", meaning the only CPC-
controlled state of the 36 others adjudged the
experiment as having been a success.
"From one state, I now have 22 political
laboratories."
He commended Governor Al-Makura for surviving
his many impeachment plots, saying "without
Nassarawa, there would not have been an APC."

Article: How God came down in that country By Akinrulie Opeyemi Joshua
Years after years man has been lamenting
about the same routine
thus,this is between castigation and eulogy
whose routine is suitable for
living. Some laws have been formulated to
ensuring the standards of mankind
but these laws were formulated in order to
instill fear in mankind instead
it aggravated the condition.
Every man's purpose is to be successful but
how do we accede with the
maker in making everyone a successful
commodity? Is it the case that he has
distinguished people from people therefore
applying favourism to some
parts? Mankind shoulders are up and they are
curious to know the reason why
things are normal and abnormal and even
partial normal. Man has been
deceived and he is even suffering from the
disaster he did not commit. Why
should the sins be meted on man? For no
reasons he wanted to prove his
superiority over man,he has succeeded in
allocating every thing to all
beings.
It is assumed that this unjust world will come
to end but when? Man
feels everything will work out for good in
accordance with his zealous
performances not knowing that his steps are
under a dictator whose
authority is centralised. He truly has the attitude
of benevolence but have
we seen it? Man is afraid to fight for his rights
because of the
consequences which have been stereotyped for
any one who violates his laws
then,how will man survive? A society where
there is no freedoom is not a
democratic epitome but an era of unjust
restrictions.
Man has been told that he will surely come
down himself despite the
belief that he's every where. Where is he?
Hidden or obvious? No true
account of his whereabouts. Gazing in progress
like an ostrich but I hope
man won't be blinded by too much sun. I hope
his arrival will change
things,all are waiting and no one is sleeping. Let
your belief justify what
you believe.

Husband Catches Pregnant Wife Having S3x With Another Man (photo)
A woman simply identified as Mercy
was on Monday morning caught sleeping with
another man in Otukpo, Benue State.
Her husband identified as Okpani
caught the wife and her lover red-handed after
he set them up, having suspected the wife was
constantly cheating on him.
DailyPost gathered that Okpani, a
Local Government staff told his pregnant wife
that he will be going for a NULGE meeting which
is supposed to take place in Makurdi, the state
capital this morning. However, Okpani went to
the neighbour's house to stay and spy on his
wife's movement.
After a while, a middle aged man who was
identified as Omale walked stealthily into his
matrimonial room. Okpani gave them a little
time before coming out of his hideout into the
room, and alas, his wife was having sexual
intercourse with Omale.
As at press time, people are gathered at
Okpani's compound, waiting for the Police to
arrive.
You can’t escape impeachment, Speaker tells Gov ayo Fayose
The Speaker of the Ekiti State House of
Assembly, Dr Adewale Omirin, has said
Governor Ayodele Fayose cannot escape
impeachment.
He said the impeachment notice served him is a
constitutional matter and not theatrics to play
down serious issues of the law raised in the
letter to the governor.
He said instead of hiding to evade justice, it is
better to live with the reality that the rule of law
has come to stay in the country.
Reacting to media reports credited to the self-
styled Speaker, Dele Olugbemi and the
governor's media aide, Lere Olayinka, dismissing
the impeachment notice as a joke, Omirin said
the two men were still acting in ignorance of the
supremacy of the constitution.
In a statement by his Special Adviser on Media,
Wole Olujobi, Omirin said the Ekiti issue was to
rescue democracy from the gridlock of executive
lawlessness and impunity.
He said: "It will soon be clear to Fayose and his
aides that the matter at hand goes beyond
exuberant media skirmishes being deployed to
rally support for the governor.
"The world's attention has shifted to Ekiti State,
following the Ekitigate scandal. Several issues
have been raised on the place of the
constitution in nurturing democracy and as
responsible citizens, we must act fast to make
democracy work."
The Speaker said all allegations raised in the
impeachment notice are constitutional matters,
to which the governor must be ready to produce
answers, instead of his belligerent stance.
Advising the governor to respond to the
allegations against him, he said running away
from the Government House and using his aides
to cover his track would not help him in
defending his assault and other infractions on
the constitution that were established against
him in court.
"It is good that his men are talking in the media
about the need to uphold the constitution in this
matter even though they behave short of
upholding the constitution in their conduct.
"Even though the governor trampled on the
same constitution when he led thugs to attack
judges and tore records in the chief judge's
office, our duty is to follow constitutional path in
this impeachment process.
"These men who are flying the governor's
banner will soon see the law in action. This
impeachment process is real.
"We must rescue Ekiti State from lawlessness
and fraud. The N1.3 billion poultry project fraud
case is still in court. There are still cases of
unresolved murders.
"We have again seen the resumption of state-
sponsored terrorism with thugs attacking and
maiming Ekiti people after a break in 2006,
when the governor was impeached for fraud
and attacks on opponents.
"We thought his impeachment trauma in 2006
would have taught him a lesson, but the
governor has proved that he cannot survive in a
society where the law works.
"We advise him to come out of hiding and
defend himself because we are prepared to give
him a fair hearing.
"That is the reality he must face instead of
downplaying serious matter of constitutional
consequences."
I have not been served any impeachment notice. -- GOV Ayo Fayose
Governor Ayo Fayose of Ekiti state says for
anyone to successfully impeach him, they would
have to impeach God first. Gov. Fayose said this
during an audience participatory programme;
'Meet Your Governor' aired on the State
Television, EKTV, Ekiti Radio, Progress FM and
NTA, Ado Ekiti today April 6th.
"I'm like Israel that is in the midst of enemies
but will always prevail. Whoever wants to
remove me will first have to impeach God. They
are doing all these just to get at me because of
my support for President Jonathan and I have
no regret for supporting the president. Let me
say it again, I have not been served any
impeachment notice. The House of Assembly is
also on recess and Dr Adewale Omirin is not the
speaker of the State House of Assembly. Omirin
is in court, challenging his impeachment and he
can't be challenging his impeachment in court
and at the same time laying claim to being
Speaker."
I am not a miracle worker, Do not expect miracles - Buhari
President elect, Muhmmadu Buhari, has asked
Nigerians not to expect him to perform miracles
once he assumes power come May 29th. Gen
Buhari said this while speaking on the war
against Boko Haram in an interview with BBC.
According to Buhari, the triumph against the
sect members would not be immediately
achieved once he gets into power but said with
cooperation from Neighboring countries and the
commitment of the military, the war would be
won in a short time
"For five, six years, the Nigerian enforcement
law agencies, including the military, couldn't
secure 14 Local Governments. How can I
promise miracles when I come? But with the
cooperation of our neighbours Cameroon, Chad,
Niger and the international community, and the
commitment we are going to get from the
military, I think it will take us a much shorter
time to deal with it", he said.
APC Law Makers Say There Is No Going Back On Fayose's Impeachment
The 19 All Progressives Congress lawmakers in
Ekiti State House of Assembly have said there is
no going back on the impeachment plot against
Governor Ayodele Fayose.
The embattled Speaker, Dr. Adewale Omirin,
said the governor could not run away from the
process because the impeachment notice
served on Fayose was a constitutional matter
and contained serious issues of the law.
He said instead of staying in hiding to evade
justice, "it is better to live with the reality that
the rule of law has come to stay in the
country."
He said this while reacting to media reports
credited to the factional Speaker, Dele
Olugbemi, and the governor's media aide, Lere
Olayinka, dismissing the impeachment notice as
a joke.
Omirin in a statement by his Special Adviser on
Media, Wole Olujobi, said the move was to
rescue democracy from the grip of executive
lawlessness and impunity into which the state
had been driven by the governor.
He said, "It will soon dawn on Fayose and his
aides that the matter at hand goes beyond
exuberant media skirmishes that are being
deployed to rally support for the governor.
"Attention of the world has shifted to Ekiti State
following the leaked tape detailing electoral
fraud perpetrated to give Fayose victory. After
that, several issues in Ekiti State are being
questioned on the place of the constitution in
nurturing democracy in the country, and as
responsible citizens, we must act right to make
democracy work."
Omirin said all allegations raised in the
impeachment notice were constitutional
matters, to which the governor must be ready
to produce answers instead of "belligerent
attitude" in the media in addressing serious
issue of constitutional significance.
Advising the governor to respond to the
allegations against him, he said running away
from the Government House and using his
aides to cover his track would not help him in
defending his assault on the nation's
constitution and other infractions against the
constitution that were already established
against him in courts.
"It is good that his men are talking in the
media about the need to uphold the
constitution in this matter even though they
behave short of upholding the constitution in
their conduct.
"Even though the governor trampled on the
same constitution when he led thugs to attack
judges in court and tore court records in the
Chief Judge's office, our duty is to follow
constitutional path in this impeachment
process.
"These men that are flying the governor's
banner will soon see the law in action. This
impeachment process is real. We must rescue
Ekiti State from lawlessness and fraud. The
N1.3bn poultry project fraud case is still in
court. There are still cases of unresolved
murders.
"We have again seen the resumption of state-
sponsored terrorism with thugs attacking and
maiming Ekiti people after a break in 2006
when the governor was impeached for fraud
and attacks on opponents.
"We thought his impeachment trauma in 2006
would have taught him a lesson, but the
governor has proved that he cannot survive in a
society where the law works. We advise him to
come out of hiding and defend himself because
we are prepared to give him a fair hearing.
That is the reality he must face instead of
downplaying serious matter of constitutional
consequences," the Speaker added.
Commenting on the impeachment notice on
Sunday, Fayose in a statement by his Special
Assistant on Public Communications and New
Media, Lere Olayinka, described his
governorship as a mandate freely and
wholeheartedly given by Ekiti people.
"Ekiti people who are the owners of my
mandate will defend it against political
usurpers, whom they had rejected twice in the
last nine months," he said.

A 35-year old man, Ibrahim Adamu is
currently in police net in Benin for
allegedly shaving the pubic hair of a 25-
year old woman, Jumai Jasper, while
sleeping in his room.
Edo State Police Commissioner, Samuel

suspect lured the victim "into his room,
shave her arm pit hair and her pubic hair
without her consent."
Adamu, a resident of Aduwawa community
in Benin who hails from Funtua local

hair while sleeping, but said that the
woman was his girlfriend.
Ibrahim Adamu paraded by Edo Police
Command

because I wanted to sleep with her, she is
my girlfriend," [/b]he said.
He however denied that he did it for ritual
purposes, adding that, he threw away the
hair away afterwards.

woke up and discovered that he had
shaved off her hair, she demanded the
hair but when he could not produce it, she
raised alarm and the people around the
place called the police who arrested him
immediately.
The police commissioner said investigation

I Will Crush BOKO HARAM Within Two Months - General Buhari
President –Elect, Muhammadu Buhari has re
assured that his administration will crush the
Boko Haram militants within two months of his
assuming office.
General Buhari spoke yesterday evening during
an interview with Christiane Amanpour on CNN,
monitored in Lagos.
He said there is insecurity in the north-east and
in the Niger Delta regions just as he explains
"we know how they started and where they are
now and we will rapidly give attention to
security in the country. And I believe we will ef
fectively deal with them in two months when we
get into office."
He said the Federal Government made some
mistakes in its fight against Boko Haram and his
administration will addressed the issues. Buhari
however stressed the importance of the support
and assistance of Nigeria's neighbours: Niger,
Cameroon and Chad to help checkmate the mili
tants.
"We will be needing the cooperation of
neighbouring countries such as Cameroon, Chad
and Niger. There were efforts made by the
President Goodluck Jonathan administration, but
it was not good enough and it came rather late,"
he said.
But where did the Jonathan administration go
wrong. Buhari drew attention to the poor
showing of the Nigerian military in the fight
against Boko Haram and explained thus: "We
expected the Federal Government four years ago
to sit down with these countries and make sure
they do not allow the terrorists free movement
across borders, training facilities and movement
of weapons.
"These were only done a few months ago and
we have seen how Cameroon, Chad and Niger
are fighting Boko Haram more than Nigeria is
doing until recently. Really we have seen enough
and we have enough law enforcement to face
Boko Haram squarely."
Buhari is confident that under his government,
the Nigeria Army will perform differently. He
also said the performance of the military was
affected by corruption in the system.
"They will…if you recall, the Nigerian soldiers out
of all ethical expectations were granting inter
views to foreign journalists, saying they were
being sent to fight terrorists without proper
weapons
"And then the National Assembly attempted to
conduct a hearing to find out how much money
was approved for training and weapon in the
last three years but that hearing was scuttled by
the administration."
ARTICLE : LATE ATTESTATION BUT CALLED TO REPLACE #nigeriahasdecided
A new era of hopes and the lives of so many people in obscurity will be seen.As a matter fact ,people want to see the capability of this new regime,the people wanted change may be it will bring about the transformation needed in this arena. Agitation,discrepancies, and brutality were present before the arrival of that great day but that day is gone,a new day is on. We have been radiating under a dark age of inconsistency as asserted by some people,glory taken away like ichabod thus,the quest to retrieve that which has been lost came then we embraced it.
The people have decided by electing a new government which signal is assumed to be a perfect organisation to all citizens. I hope this government won't betray the people who have trusted and envisioned good happenings about this government. All are seated waiting for this magnanimous government to exercise power and perform their duties as a new regime that really cares about the multitude. A lot things are expected and things that are yet to be done.
I hope the people won't be segregated and brutally castigated because of their fundamental rights. I hope this new regime will hearken to the voice of the masses. I hope this regime will take the people to the land of fruition. I hope the poor will be fed judiciously despite the oppressive vicinity . I hope there will be no tribalism and religious rift amidst the people.
The people are waiting and even their eagerness is running out simply because they want a new NATION.

PDP vows to challenge general buhari's victory at The tribunal court
The Peoples Democratic Party has said it will
challenge the outcome of the March 28
presidential election.
The Independent National Electoral Commission,
through its Chairman and Chief Returning
Officer, Prof. Attahiru Jega, on Wednesday
morning, declared Maj. Gen. Muhammadu
Buhari(retd.) of the All Progressives Congress as
the winner of the election.
The PDP through its agent at the National
Collation Centre in Abuja on Wednesday, when
the final result was declared, had refused to
sign the result sheet despite its candidate,
President Goodluck Jonathan, having earlier
conceded defeat.
The agent of the PDP, Bello Fadile, who was in
attendance when parties were being called
upon to sign the result sheet, told journalists
shortly after the result was declared that the
party was not satisfied with the outcome of the
election and had decided to challenge it at the
election tribunal.
"Whether I sign it (the result sheet) or I don't
sign it, does not make any difference. It doesn't
invalidate the result. When we go to court, then
we can challenge the result," Fadile said.
When asked to confirm if the PDP will challenge
the result at the presidential election petitions
tribunal, Fadile added, "Sure! The party
petitioned. Don't forget. So the party will follow
through the petition. There are rules for this.
The law is there.
"The result was declared on the 1st of April, I
think. We will follow the due process. Like the
president (Jonathan) said, 'If you have any
grievances, follow due process and the due
process in this instance is to go to the tribunal."
