Residents of Offa Garage Community in Ilorin, Kwara State, have cried out to the State Government to restore pipe borne water supply to the area. Some of the residents told the News Agency of Nigeria, in Ilorin on Thursday, that the water stopped flowing seven years ago.
They said this was in spite of repeated appeals to officials of Water Corporation and Ministry of Water Resources in the State to come to their aid.
Alhaji Raimi Alani, the Mogaji Ero-Omo, said the people of the area had suffered a lot from searching for potable water.
He said he had written several letters to the ministry to come to their aid and provide them with water, all to no avail.
Alani explained that the community used to enjoy pipe borne water, but the pipes were destroyed and supply cut off due to road construction in the area about seven years ago.
A resident, Mrs Hannah Wuraola, corroborated the view, adding that they had been battling with the problem for about seven years, and attributed it to the road constructed in the area.
“The pipes were damaged during road construction and were not re-connected in spite of the promise by the contractors to do so.
“In Offa Garage, you cannot get water if you have not dug a well. But not everybody can afford that because it is very expensive,” she said.
Another resident, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said residents who had boreholes were reluctant to help because people used to disturb them at odd hours to fetch water.
“They won’t allow you to sleep. People are in my house to fetch water as early as 4am, disturbing my sleep.
“But as human being, I cannot send them away, I have to open my gate for them to fetch water”, a landlord said.
But the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Water Resources, Mr Olaitan Adefila, said the community’s claim cannot be true.
“It is most ridiculous for anybody to say that there is no water supply in an area for seven years. I know it is impracticable,” he emphasised.
A young 15 year old girl in Malaysia was gang molested by 38 Muslim men, with each man taking turns for several hours in an abandoned hut. Police have arrested 15 men and are looking for the remaining ones as the investigation is going under way. Media accounts, quoting information from District Police Chief, Azham Otham, said 38 men were involved.
Report says the assault took place in the northern state of Kelantan on May 20 when the girl met a girlfriend and was lured to an empty hut said to be a local drug haunt.

The men took turns to rape her for hours. Police were also investigating whether her 17-year-old friend was also molested. The alleged attack, one of several brutal caes this week underscoring the violence to which women are being subjected across Asia, sparked outrage among women’s groups. Politicians from a Muslim party running the region said their proposal to introduce Islamic hudud law, with harsh penalties, would deter offenders.

A reader sent this lamentable story from Twitter, gentlemen. Simply read and be stunned. People had really abandoned the accident casualties cos they feared dealing the police, they were afraid of police case. Tweets continue after the bellow. Read tweets from bottom to top.
I close and open my eyes and ask again; are they gone yet? Is the Dark Age over yet? It’s been thirty years of hardship. Thirty long years of looting. Thirty unbelievable years, through which our next minute was guaranteed to be twice as hard, bad, pitiful and depressingly embarrassing as our last.
And don’t think I can’t count. I can! PDP took over with guns in the coup of August 1985. They were first called the Babangida-Abacha junta. Then they took off their military uniforms and after eliminating all threats like Brigadier Tunde Idiagbon, installed their “party,” better known today as a “den of killers,” quoting (allegedly) Laureate, Wole Soyinka.
For the thirty long years, they looted 70% of Nigeria’s oil earnings. They installed mechanisms including owning all the oil blocks, to $ billions waylaying brief-case holder middle men in Switzerland where the oil is sold, to the NNPC (National Notorious Petty-thief Corporation) and then via the CBN governor who opens vaults to load mint foreign currency in flight-cases for laundering, to loot Nigeria’s entire earnings. They protected these mechanisms which they transferred from Babangida to Abacha to General Abdusalami, Babangida’s foster brother (whose dad adopted orphaned Babangida), to their fellow General Obasanjo, to his favorite son, Jonathan, padded with their men, the Dasukis, Gusaus and Marks.
Billions of dollars looted yearly, totaling $600 billion by recent counts, by these shameless scums of the earth.
Indeed one cannot and must never denigrate a group or tribe, because tribalism is from Satan, and there will always be outliers in all groups that seem homogeneous, however anyone who voted for that PDP party (that destroyed Nigeria for thirty years and supervised the founding of MEND and Boko and Ombatse and what have you, and sponsored genocidal, blood curdling terror pogroms to cover and use for the looting of billions of dollars annually) is either naïve to a fault, and worth remanding, spiteful to the point of self extermination or simply devilish. There was no excuse, none whatsoever for putting your thumb down for Babangida’s party. I strongly urge whoever did so, north, south, east and west to apologize to his neighbor and seek repentance from God.
So now after PDP ran this country for 30 straight years, Nigeria is broke. We are in the mud. This lootocracy, this kakistocracy has mismanaged the economy so much and looted it dry, now they borrow money and put our children in debt to pay the sinators their hellish salaries. 16 years we have seen that witch, Ngozi at the helm of the economy. For what? For this? That Godwin of the CBN… that’s another thing; these vultures, these vampires always put bank managers at the helm of the Central bank – for one single function: to unfairly support the banks against/and rob the broke masses blind. That Diezani…the thief who steals millions of dollars monthly from market women and mothers across the nation in the kerosene subsidy illegal fraud. Who with her Jide and Kola rascals has looted us dry from the point of sale in Switzerland…where Nigeria is the only nation that sells its oil, through middle-men.
Jonathan was just a clueless ant in the larger, 30-year run PDP scam. What I just don’t understand is what they are waiting for. For May 29th? To loot more money till the last minute?
Are they gone yet?

Russia’s next-generation Armata tank, recently showcased at the Victory Day parade in Moscow, could be fitted with a bigger, 152mm cannon, the Izvestia daily reported Thursday citing Russian Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin.
The Armata tank’s main armament includes a 7.62mm remote-control machine gun and a 125mm smoothbore cannon. The tank is operated by a crew of three, housed in an armored capsule at the front.
A column of Armata tanks, equipped with 125mm cannons, rolled through Moscow’s historic Red Square on May 9 as Russian President Vladimir Putin and a number of foreign heads of state, including Chinese leader Xi Jinping, watched on.
“We have a shell that can burn through a meter-wide steel [plate] for this tank, we will fit it onto the Armata,” Rogozin was quoted as saying by Izvestia.
The Armata is a Russian prototype of a heavy tracked vehicle platform, used as a basis to build a next-generation main battle tank and a range of other combat vehicles.
Intensive infighting broke out between government troops and coup soldiers in the early hours of Thursday as the two sides continued exchange of fire to seize the capital, witnesses said.
Forty-five individuals have kicked the bucket in a massive blast at a footwear production line in the Philippine capital and 26 others stay missing, authorities said on Thursday, as lamenting relatives portrayed sweatshop conditions and poor flame security standards.
Salvage specialists hauled many bodies out of the remnants of the two-story building in Manila, a hefty portion of whom were accepted to have been caught on the second floor after the blast broke out after evening on Wednesday.
“Many of those retrieved were reduced to skulls and bones,” national police chief Leonardo Espina said during an emotional press conference, as city authorities confirmed that 45 bodies had so far been found.
“Someone will definitely be charged because of the deaths. It doesn’t matter if it’s an accident, people died. Right now, we are investigating to clearly define what happened. For sure, someone will be charged.”
Sparks from welding equipment used to repair a broken gate are believed to have caused the fire when they ignited flammable chemicals stored nearby.
The building, among a long row of factories in the rundown district of Valenzuela on the northern edge of the Philippine capital, made cheap slippers and sandals for the local market.
The footwear had names such as “Havana” that sound like well-known global brands, company employees said.
– No safety standards –
The factory workers toiled for as little as 300 pesos (US$6.70) a day routinely surrounded by foul-smelling chemicals and were not aware of fire safety standards, survivors and relatives said.
“The families can’t help but be angry about what happened. We will never forget this,” Rodrigo Nabor, whose two sisters were inside the factory and remain unaccounted for, told AFP.
Nabor was among relatives of factory workers waiting for body bags at a village hall that had been converted into a makeshift morgue.
“I’ve lost hope that they survived,” said Nabor, 31, who works at a nearby plywood factory.
“I can’t explain how I’m feeling. I didn’t sleep at all last night. I just kept walking around the factory hoping for news.”
Nabor said his sisters, Bernardita Logronio, 32, and Jennylyn Nabor, 26, often complained of foul-smelling chemicals in their workplace.
“They said they keep an electric fan on to drive some of the smell away,” he said.
Nabor said their pay depended on how many sandals they finished, which could be as little as 300 pesos a day. Nabor’s sisters each had a young child.
One survivor, Janet Victoriano, signalled lax fire safety standards may have contributed to the high death toll.
“I had never been involved in a fire drill ever,” Victoriano, who had worked at the factory for five years, told DZMM radio.
Victoriano said she was able to escape because she was near the front door when the blaze started.
“The building was totally damaged, the roofs caved in and portions of the second floor collapsed,” the city’s fire marshal, Senior Superintendent Rico Kwantiu, told AFP.
Valenzuela mayor Rex Gatchalian told reporters that rescue workers would continue scouring the building on Thursday for the 26 people still missing, while also checking to see whether they had escaped.
“The city government is still praying and hoping some of them must have gotten out,” Gatchalian said.
Deadly fires regularly rip through the poor shanty areas of the Philippine capital, where there are virtually no fire safety standards.
In the deadliest fire in Manila in recent times, 162 people were killed in a huge blaze that gutted a Manila disco in 1996.
Air pollution takes early toll on children
Air pollution can be bad for children — starting even before birth, a new study suggests.
Researchers studied exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, or PAHs, a form of pollution caused by burning gasoline, diesel fuel, home heating oil and coal. They found that prenatal exposure to these compounds was tied to changes in the structure of an offspring’s brains and to intellectual deficits and behavioral problems in childhood.
The researchers measured PAH concentrations in the air and in the blood and urine of 40 mothers in their third trimester of pregnancy, as well as in their children’s urine. They followed the children until they were seven to nine years old, performing magnetic resonance imaging tests on their brains.
The results are in JAMA Psychiatry.
The higher the exposure to PAHs, the more reductions the children had in the white matter surface of the left hemispheres of their brains. The amount of damaged white matter correlated directly with higher scores on measures of symptoms of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and other behavioral problems.
Higher exposure to PAHs and white matter deterioration were also associated with lower scores on tests of processing speed, the ability to take in new information and respond to it.
“Everyone is exposed to these compounds,” said the lead author, Dr. Bradley S. Peterson, the director of the Institute for the Developing Mind at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles. “Pregnant women and young children are very vulnerable to environmental insults to the developing brain, and these exposures are likely having devastating effects.”
How not to catch a cold on a plane
What can you do to reduce the possibility of becoming sick when you are trapped on a plane with a sneezing, coughing fellow passenger?
Take heart. Not everyone on the plane will catch whatever illness is being spread by those sneezes, and if you are uncomfortably close to a sick person, you might be able to request a seat farther away.
Research published by the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention suggests that even a few rows of distance will cut risks significantly.
A small study of passengers on two long-haul flights carrying people infected with H1N1 influenza found that the transmission risk was increased by 7.7 per cent for those within two seats of people with symptoms. If passengers were just in the same row or within two rows, the risk was increased by only 3.6 per cent.
You can take a face mask that covers your nose and mouth. The CDC says that N95-type face masks,which filter out 95 per cent of particles, have been up to 90 per cent effective in warding off infection in experiments. Even a less efficient mask could be useful on a plane, the researchers said, based on a study of the transmission of H1N1 flu on another international flight.
And remember that not all disease transmission is airborne. The standard recommendations for washing your hands frequently will go a long way toward protecting you on a plane.

Previous Central Bank Governor and now Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi II who blew the cover on the missing NNPC cash has assessed the recently released PWC evaluators provide details regarding the missing NNPC cash. He shared his contemplations in a piece titled ‘Unanswered inquiries on Nigeria’s missing oil revenue billions” published in the Financial Times yesterday May 13. See what he composed bellow.
Just over a year ago President Goodluck Jonathan suspended me from my position as governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria after I questioned an estimated $20bn shortfall in oil revenues due to the treasury from the state oil company. As I said then, you can suspend a man, but you cannot suspend the truth. The publication last month of a PwC audit into the “missing billions” brings us a step closer to it.
When I was central bank governor I raised three broad questions. First, did the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation remit to the government the entire proceeds of its crude oil sales? Second, if it did not, is there proof of the purpose to which the unremitted amounts were applied? And third, did NNPC have the legal authority to withhold these funds?
Contrary to the claims of petroleum minister Diezani Alison-Madueke, the audit report does not exonerate the NNPC. It establishes that the gap between the company’s oil revenues between January 2012 and July 2013 and cash remitted to the government for the same period was $18.5bn. And it goes into detail about the NNPC’s account of how it used that money, which raises serious questions about the legality of the state oil company’s conduct.
The auditors say a significant part of the unremitted funds is supposed to have gone towards a kerosene subsidy that had been stopped two and a half years earlier by the late President Umaru Yar’Adua. His decree never appeared in the official gazette, leading some to question whether it ever had legal force.
Evidence disclosed in the report suggests this is a sideshow. The executive secretary of the agency charged with administering subsidies confirmed that, acting on Yar’Adua’s orders, it had ceased granting subsidies on kerosene. There was no appropriation for such a subsidy in the 2012 or 2013 budgets.
Throughout all this, Nigerians paid 120-140 naira a litre of kerosene, far more than the supposed subsidised price of 50 naira. Yet the state oil company withheld $3.4bn to pay for a subsidy that in effect did not exist. I have consistently held that this was a scam that violated the constitution and siphoned off money from the treasury.
The second major item raised in the report relates to the transfer of oil assets belonging to the federation to the Nigerian Petroleum Development Company, a subsidiary of the NNPC.
NPDC has paid $100m for these assets, from which it extracted crude valued at $6.8bn but paid tax and royalties worth $1.7bn in the period scrutinised by the auditors. PwC was unable to establish how much of the remaining $5.1bn should have been remitted to the government. But the report showed that, along with the private companies NPDC partnered with, it was extracting crude worth billions of dollars but yielding very little revenue for the treasury. I was investigating related transactions when I was suspended.
The third major item is a claim of $2.8bn by NNPC for expenses not directly attributable to crude oil operations; PwC said “clarity is required” on whether such upfront deductions from remittances to the federation accounts are allowed, or whether the money should have been remitted to the government. Finally, there are duplicated expenses, “unsubstantiated” costs, computation “errors” and tax shortfalls; a total of $1.48bn has to be refunded.
Of the $18.5bn in revenues that the state oil company did not send to the government, about $12.5bn appears by my calculations to have been diverted. And this relates only to a random 19-month period, not the five-year term of Mr Jonathan, the outgoing president.
Nigerians did not vote for an amnesty for anyone. The lines of investigation suggested by this audit need to be pursued. Any officials found responsible for involvement in this apparent breach of trust must be charged.

Peoples Democratic Party, (PDP) chieftain in Ogun State, Chief Toyin Umar said the move to extradite the senator-elect Prince Buruji Kashamu is an attempt to witch-hunt the financier of the PDP in the South West because he hadn’t committed any crime.
Chief Umar in a statement yesterday, said that Kashamu had a judgment from the United Kingdom over the drugs case which exonerated him then hence there was no point bringing back the same case because he had been cleared.
“I urge the brains behind the move to stop witch-hunting him. This same case was mentioned in the UK some years back, it ended up in favour of the senator-elect”, he said.
According to Umar, those behind Kashamu’s extradition moves are only doing it to run him down for political reasons.
”Buruji Kashamu has no case with the USA, its just that some people are trying to run him down.
“If truly the Senator-Elect has a case to answer in the United States of America, the authorities know the right thing to do, and not that, some people would be flying a kite for his extradition.

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, on Tuesday, May 12, 2015 re-arraigned Mamman Ali, before Justice Adeniyi Onigbanjo of a Lagos State High Court sitting in Ikeja on an amended 49 counts of fuel subsidy fraud to the tune of N4.5bn.
He is the son of a former National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party and Director-General of the PDP Presidential Campaign Organisation in the last general elections, Senator Ahmadu Ali.
Ali was arraigned alongside his two alleged accomplices – Christian Taylor and Nasaman Oil Services Limited, an oil-marketing firm.
The re-arraignment of Ali followed the ‘disappearance’ of one Oluwaseun Ogunbambo, with whom they were first arraigned on July 26, 2012. Ogunbambo had jumped bail as he fled the country after he was granted bail.
They are facing trial for allegedly obtaining N4.5bn as fuel subsidy claim from the Federal Government on a purported importation of 30.5 million liters of Premium Motor Spirit (petrol) which they never did.
In 2012, the four accused persons were arraigned on a nine counts bordering on conspiracy, obtaining money by false pretenses, forgery and use of false documents.
At the resumed hearing, EFCC’s prosecutor, Seidu Atteh, informed the court of the amended charges and sought the permission of the court to take the plea of the three accused persons.
Justice Onigbanjo however granted the prayer. Upon reading the charges to them, all the accused persons pleaded not guilty to all the counts.
In the fresh charge, the EFCC alleged that the accused persons committed the subsidy fraud between January 2011 and April 2012; and by their alleged fraudulent act, violated Section 1(3) of the Advance Fee Fraud and Other Fraud Related Offences Act of 2006.
The prosecutor also said that the offences also violated Sections 363(a) and 364 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State 2011.
The case has been adjourned to Tuesday, 30th June, 2015 for continuation of hearing.
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, on May 13, 2015 tendered the result of polygraph test conducted on Mrs. Rosulu Idowu Oluronke, a former Lagos Court Registrar standing trial for allegedly defrauding a former Chief of Army Staff, Gen. Ishaya Bamaiyi of $300,000.
EFCC’s polygraph expert and prosecution witness, Chinedu Enanya, who addressed the court on the result of the tests, said they showed that the defendant was deceitful.
According to him, “the polygraph tests, after each examination, usually show whether the examinee was truthful or deceitful when asked relevant questions”. He explained that the tests could be pre-texts; in-texts and pro-tests.
In running the tests, Enanya said that both relevant and irrelevant questions were asked. After the tests, analysis was done and scores recorded. He said the result showed that Oluronke was deceitful. A further post-test was conducted to enable the defendant respond to the outcome of the tests. On the strength of the tests, four documents presented before the court by the prosecution were admitted as exhibits. The documents are: EFCC polygraph consent form, certification of identification; copy of polygraph chart and polygraph report.
Under cross examination by defence counsel, K. O Osinowo, Enanya said that a legal representative of the defendant came around for the polygraph test, but was not allowed into the examination room, so as not to distract the defendant. He told the court that no further test was conducted after the polygraph result came out.
Justice Lawal Akapo adjourned the matter till June 8, 9, and 10, 2015 for continuation of trial.
It would be recalled that Ajudua and the defendant, were initially arraigned by the EFCC before Justice Ipaye, but the second defendant, who is a public servant requested for separation of the charges and expeditious trial.
Oluronke, is facing a two-count charge of conspiracy and obtaining money by false pretence. The EFCC alleged that she helped Ajudua to obtain the money from Bamaiyi between November 2004 and June 2005 while both of them were at Kirikiri Prison for separate offences, by claiming that it represented the professional fees charged by Chief Afe Babalola (SAN) to handle his case.
Meanwhile, the planned re – arraignment today, of the trio of Waheed Omotayo (alias Badmus Mustapha), Giwa Tunde Abiodun and Aghama Peter before Justice Othman A. Musa of the Federal Capital Territory High Court, Apo Abuja on an 8-count charge bordering on forgery, could not go on as the first accused claimed he does not understand English language.
The case which started in January 2013 was transferred to Justice Musa following the retirement of the former trial judge, Justice Buba.
When the case came up today, the prosecuting counsel Cosmas Ugwu told the court that he had already obtained leave to prefer charges against the accused persons.
One of the counts read, “That you Waheed Omotayo (Aka Badmus Mustapha) Giwa Tunde Abiodun and Aghama Peter and one Mallam Mohammed (still at large) on or about the 23rd of May 2012 in Abuja within the jurisdiction of the High Court of the Federal Capital Territory with intent to defraud did forge a document titled Embassy of the Arab Republic of Egypt Entry Visa Application Form in the name of one Badmus Fatimoh Omotoke and thereby committed an offence contrary to Section 362 (a) and punishable under Section 364 of the Penal Code”.
Another count reads: “That you Waheed Omotayo (Aka Badmus Mustapha) Giwa Tunde Abiodun and Aghama Peter and one Mallam Mohammed (still at large) on or about the 18th of May 2012 in Abuja within the jurisdiction of the High Court of the Federal Capital territory with intent to defraud did forge a First Bank of Nigeria Plc Statement of Account in the name of one Badmus Mustapha Olayemi with Account no 2013715284 and thereby committed an offence contrary to Section 362 (a) and punishable under Section 364 of the Penal Code.”
However, just as plea was about to be taken, counsel to the first accused Usman Ebere informed the court that his client, Waheed Omotayo, only understands his native Yoruba language and would require an interpreter.
Justice Musa, after ascertaining their bail status which was confirmed by counsel, directed that the prosecution arrange for an interpreter for the accused and adjourned the matter to June 24, 2015.
