AIRPORT WORKER DIES AFTER SEX WITH GIRLFRIEND

Airport worker dies after sex with girlfriend

A clearing agent, Mr. Sikiru Olanrewaju, has lost his life after leaving his wife and children at home to have fun with his girlfriend in the Abule Egba area of Lagos State.

PUNCH Metro learnt that 37-year-old Olanrewaju died shortly after having rounds of sex with his lover on Surulere Street.

The lover was said to have raised the alarm which drew the attention of residents, including the landlady, who reported at the Oke-Odo Police Division.

The victim’s corpse was deposited in a morgue pending the conclusion of investigations.

A resident, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said the deceased worked with an aviation company at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Ikeja.

He said, “The man was married, but he had a girlfriend who lived in Abule Egba. On August 23, he had finished from work when he called her on the telephone that he would be sleeping at her place.

“The girlfriend said she told him not to come because he was married, but he insisted on passing the night at her house.

“The lady said when he got to her place, they ate the same food and drank the same water. They had sex, after which they slept.

“She said around 5am, she woke up to go to work and discovered he was stiff. She said she tried hard to wake him up, but he didn’t respond. She said she was too confused to know what to do and waited for about three hours before raising the alarm, which drew the attention of people, including the landlady.”

The resident said the landlady reported at the station, and was followed by some operatives to the apartment where the incident happened.

PUNCH Metro was told that there was no mark of violence on the victim.

A source said Olanrewaju’s family were immediately contacted and the police broke the news to them.

She said, “The family said they don’t want the police to investigate anything. They said they had received the news in good faith and that the corpse should be released for burial in accordance with Islamic rites. I am not sure his wife has been informed because she did not follow them to the station. But obviously, she will not receive the news well.”

The Police Public Relations Officer, SP Dolapo Badmos, confirmed the incident, adding that investigations were ongoing.

She said, “The man was allegedly found dead in a room in the Abule Egba area after spending the night with his girlfriend. A team of police detectives from the Oke-Odo Police Division visited, examined, and photographed the scene. We discovered that there was no trace of violence on the body. The corpse has been deposited in a morgue

NAIRA FALLS FURTHER TO 414/DOLLAR

Naira falls further to 414/dollar

The naira fell to a new low of 414 against the United States dollar on Sunday amid the continued scarcity of foreign exchange in the country, with economic experts predicting further pressure in the forex market this week.

The development came five days after the Central Bank of Nigeria had banned nine commercial banks from the forex market for failing to remit the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation’s $2.334bn into the Treasury Single Account in line with President Muhammadu Buhari’s directive last September.

The naira was sold for 414/dollar across some black market segments in Lagos and Abuja on Sunday. It hit an all-time low of 412 against the greenback at the parallel market on Friday, after closing at 409/dollar on Thursday.

On Wednesday, a day after the CBN banned the nine banks from the forex market, the local currency depreciated to 402/dollar, down from the 397 it closed against the greenback on Tuesday.

Forex dealers said the demand pressure on the dollar, mounted by summer travellers and parents paying schools fees of their children studying overseas, was exacerbated by the CBN’s forex ban on the nine lenders.

The currency dealers said the naira started falling after the CBN banned the lenders from forex transactions.

It first touched 400/dollar at the black market this month since the CBN floated the currency on the official interbank market in June.

At the interbank market, the naira closed at 314.95 on Friday, with traders saying interbank rates would ease this week when part of July’s budget allocation must have entered the banking system.

But experts said the naira would plunge further against the US dollar this week at the parallel market as forex supply remained a major challenge.

Forex traders said even though the CBN had continued to sell dollars daily on the interbank market, its efforts were considered weak and inadequate, Reuters reported.

The Chief Executive Officer, Cowry Asset Management Limited, Mr. Johnson Chukwu, said, “There is nothing in the policy environment that will arrest the decline unless the central bank has increased capacity to supply the market, which unfortunately it doesn’t have. So, we should expect the naira to remain under pressure in the coming week.”

He said for the naira to stabilise, there must be a funding that the Federal Government or the CBN could access, such as a credit support from either the World Bank or a trading partner like China.

Chukwu said, “The decline of the naira against the dollar is beyond the recent suspension of some banks from the forex market. We have witnessed suspension of banks in the past, and it did not lead to any spike in exchange rate. The major challenge we have now is supply shortage. If that improves, naira will stabilise.”

He said the naira might hit a low of 420 to the dollar this week.

A currency analyst at Ecobank, Mr. Kunle Ezun, said the supply issue, ban on 41 items from the official forex market and activities of speculators would continue to push the value of the dollar up against the naira.

He said, “Sincerely, there is no major thing that one can expect in the parallel market. The only thing that could bring calm to the market is the supply of the US dollar. What we have in the market is basically demand and supply interplay.”

According to him, the volatility in the parallel market will continue as the importers of the banned 41 items have resorted to the market.

“A lot of people in the official market will want to actually maximise the gains on their dollar holding by channelling it through the parallel market,” Ezun said

TRUMP COULD WIN BIG EVEN IF HE LOSES ELECTION

Trump Could Win Big Even If He Loses Election

With recent polls showing Hillary Clinton maintaining a sizable lead over Republican rival Donald Trump, many Democrats are predicting a landslide win in November.
And, if Trump does lose, many in the GOP establishment are hoping the brash and unpredictable real estate mogul turned reality TV star will just go away.
But Trump is unlikely to do that.
Instead, with his ever-tighter ties to former Fox News chairman Roger Ailes (who is now reportedly advising the Republican candidate) and his recent hiring of former Breitbart chairman Steven Bannon, there's a growing chorus, propelled by a report in Vanity Fair, saying that Trump's endgame is not the nation's highest office — but to have a right-wing media outlet of his own.

© If Trump loses the presidential race, many in the GOP establishment surely hope the brash and unpred... Image: Donald Trump If Trump lost in November and then launched his own media operation — a plan his campaign has repeatedly denied — what would it be exactly? And would it be a success?
"Losing in November would be the best thing that could happen, from a business standpoint," said Jon Klein, former president of CNN's U.S. operations. Klein, who is currently the CEO of TAPP, the subscription-based online video network that launched Sarah Palin's now defunct channel, added, "It would only increase the passion of his most hard-core supporters, and it would give them a juicy target to rail against for the next four years."
If Trump were to launch his own media venture, we don't know what form it would take: cable TV, the internet, or something else entirely.
But Klein said the internet subscription route — in the style of Glenn Beck's Blaze TV, in which a small (by web and cable TV standards) audience pays a monthly fee for behind-paywall video content — would be highly successful in that it would eliminate the cable or satellite middleman so viewers could better "connect deeply and directly with their hero."
Whether or not an internet video network would be high-profile enough for the attention-hungry Trump is another question.

"It's hard to imagine if Trump were to be looking to build a media operation that it would be anything [except] small," said Brian Wieser, a senior analyst of advertising, media and internet at Pivotal Research Group. But to start an actual television station would cost hundreds of millions of dollars at least, which begs the question, "How much money does he really have? How much in liquid assets?" said Wieser. Trump routinely claims to be worth $10 billion, though that figure is highly suspect.
Robert Thompson, a professor and director of the Bleier Center for Television and Popular Culture at Syracuse University, predicted a cable network would be unsuccessful for Trump in that it's an enormous, expensive undertaking and it's already a very crowded news environment. And "for many millions of Americans the Trump brand is already tarnished," he said.
On the other hand, "You need fewer people to make a hit night on cable television that you do to be elected president. If he could regularly have a media operation that would have 3 million people watching that would be successful," he said of Trump. That's not an outlandish number to imagine — after all, some 14 million people voted for Trump in the GOP primaries.
And there's another angle, too. Trump the candidate loves to skewer the media, frequently calling it "dishonest" and "corrupt." He's arguably foreshadowing a "problem" that he can "fix."
Trump is "already setting up a narrative, that the media is corrupt and the system is rigged against him. The natural transition is 'we need a platform to be heard,'" said Kurt Bardella, Breitbart's former spokesman who quit earlier this year and has been highly critical of Trump. The hiring of Bannon certainly indicates that Trump is considering a media entity for his base, he added.
And there's no doubt Trump would love the attention of being not just a business mogul, but a media honcho, too.
"What Trump is happiest doing is running for president, not being president — but running for president," said Thompson. "Part of that has to do with him being in the media spotlight."

HERDSMEN ATTACK: MASSOB BLASTS S/EAST GOVS AS OHANAEZE YOUTHS BLAME BUHARI

HERDSMEN ATTACK: MASSOB BLASTS S/EAST GOVS AS OHANAEZE YOUTHSBLAME BUHARI We need pan-Igbo security outfits Self-defence now our option — Ohaneze Youths Says herdsmen being encouraged by presidency’s alleged inaction Declare six geo-political zones sovereign — ex-Ohaneze scribe IRKED by the recur-ring killing and maiming of villagers in Enugu State by Fulani herdsmen and the seeming hopelessness of the security architecture in the state, the Movement for the Actualization of the Sovereign State of Biafra, MASSOB, yesterday, described the governors of the South-eastern states as weak and incapable of performing the primary function of governance.

Uwazurike It said that had the governors established a pan-Igbo security outfit in addition to conventional security agencies, the South East geopolitical zone, would have been better protected against rampaging herdsmen. This came as a former Secretary of Ohaneze Ndigbo, Chief Nduka Eya and Ohaneze Youth Council, OYC, said President Muhammdu Buhari was treating the killings being perpetrated by herdsmen with kid gloves, noting that herdsmen were being encouraged in their actions by the alleged soft disposition of the presidency.The trend, MASSOB stated, suggested that only Igbo people could be relied on for the protection of lives and property in Igbo land, adding that it was suicidal for the governors to have had confidence in security agents, given the recent experiences of herdsmen attacks. The groups’ frustration was on the heels of findings by Saturday Vanguard which revealed that many were losing confidence in the ability of the state governor, Chief Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi at protecting his people against further attacks. Pregnant woman's stomach ripped open; four severely injured

Pregnant woman’s stomach ripped open; four severely injured Majority, who vented their frustration, observed that the perceived inaction of the state government in the face of increasing attacks suggested that he lacks political will. This assertion was predicated on the fact that the governors of Ekiti and Abia states, had while responding to the activities of the herdsmen, promulgated laws aimed at checkmating their unwholesome movements.Specifically, the Ekiti State House of Assembly passed a bill banning free cattle grazing in the state, while Abia State governor, Dr. Okezie Ikpeazu had ordered the revival of the moribund state-owned vigilante group, the Abia State Vigilante Services ,AVS, to enhance community policing. These, among others, were the measures many told Saturday Vanguard, had long been expected of Ugwuanyi, who had experienced series of devastating attacks on Enugu communities by herdsmen in the last four months.We blame Igbo leaders —MASSOB However, MASSOB in a statement by its leader, Mr. Uchenna Madus, said: “We blame Igbo leaders for these unchallenged confrontations, unwarranted and cowardice killing of our people by Fulani herdsmen in our own land. “The known enemies have the effrontery to commit this sacrilege today against Ndigbo who they were afraid of during Nigeria/Biafra war because Igbo political, traditional, religious, opinion leaders are afraid of Buhari. “Until Igbo leaders wake up from their slumber and understand the efficiency, efficacy, and potency of Igbo-based grassroots organizations including the Biafra agitating groups who are committed to Ndigbo, Igbo land will continue to experience more devastating attacks. “Why should Igbo governors continue to rely on the security personnel in their states, spending millions of naira on them while neglecting groups that can ensure security in Igbo land?” Enugu State gov should act now—OYC In like manner, OYC in a statement by Mazi Alex Okemiri said: “The Fulani herdsmen continue to attack all parts of the country despite assurances by Mr. President that it would stop. “It is clear now that Mr. President has no control over them. We call on Ndigbo, Southerners, Middle Beltans and moderate Arewa people to defend themselves in the face of these continuous killings and inability of the Federal Government to protect them. Self-protection and preservation are the first laws in heaven. “The Enugu State government should act like the Abia State governor and set up well-armed Vigilante groups in all autonomous communities in the state to engage and checkmate the activities of the wicked and bloodthirsty Fulani herdsmen.” Declare six geopolitical zones sovereign—ex-Ohaneze scribe Similarly, Eya said: “We regard every Hausa man as our brother and friend but these killings must stop. When Fulani herdsmen killed the people of Nimbo, they said they would get to the root of the matter and that it was going to be the last. How can a human being be killed by his or her neighbour for beating a gong to scare away animals? “If we are one country, let us remain one but if we are not, let us declare the six zones sovereign countries for everybody to go his own way. We are ready to get passports to go to Sokoto or Katsina if the need be.” FG, state govts must stop this genocide —Okoroafor On his part, the General Superintendent of the Assemblies of God Nigeria, Dr. Chidi Okoroafor described the development as sacrilegious. He said: “I share the pain and horror of this violence. The killing of a priest is horrific and barbaric. It is a sacrilegious act which must be condemned in strong terms and even the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria condemns it. Nigeria needs divine intervention and I call on all true Christians not to cease from praying for God’s intervention. “I call on the federal and state governments to help stop this genocide and systemic killing of our people. Nigeria’s constitution is against intentionally depriving a person of his life. The Nigeria Police should wake up to combat this crime and protect the lives of the citizenry from incessant attacks.” Leading a South East caucus of the National Assembly, NASS, to the palace of the traditional ruler of Atakwu Akegbe-Ugwu, Igwe Greg Ugwu, the lawmaker representing Nkanu-West/Nkanu-East Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, Mr. Chukwuemeka Ujam said: “The NASS condemns this dastardly act while consoling the families of the affected victims.”

Sanders is being held in an undisclosed detention center awaiting his initial court appearance.

THE CAMEL TRADER OF BABYLON(PART2)

Dabasir, however, knew no such thing as silence . smiling and waving his hand good- naturedly to the other customers, all of whom knew him, he continued.
"I did hear from a traveler just returned from Urfa of a certain rich man who has a piece of stone cut so thin that one can easily look through it. He puts it in the window of his house to keep it out of the rains. it is yellow , so this traveler does not relate, and he was permitted to look through it and all the outside world looked strange and not it really is. what do you say to that , Tarkad? Thinkest all the world could look to a man a different color from what it is ?"
"I dare say ", responded the youth , much more interested in the fat leg of goat placed before Dabasir. "Well I know it to be true for I myself have seen the world all of a different color from what it really is and the tale I am about to tell relates how I came to see it in the right color once more ."
"Dabasir will tell a tale," whispered a neighboring diner to his neighbor , and dragged his rug close . Other diners brought their food and crowded in a semicircle. They crunched noisily in the ears of Tarkad and brushed him with their meaty bones.He alone was without food .Dabasir did not offer to share with him nor even motion him to a small corner of the hard bread that was broken off and had fallen on the platter of the floor.
" The tale that I am about to tell ," began Dabasir pausing to bite a goodly chunk of the goat leg , relates to my early life and how I came to be a camel trader. Didst anyone know that I was once a slave in Syria?.
   A murmur of surprise ran through the audience to which Dabasir listened with satisfaction.
   " When I was a young man ," continued Dabasir after another vicious onslaught on the goat leg, "I learned from the trade of a father the making of saddles . I worked with him in his shop and took to myself a wife. Being young and not greatly skilled, I could earn but little , just enough to support my wife in an modest way. I craved good things which I could not afford . Soon I found the shopkeepers would trust me to pay later even though I could not pay at the time.
"Being young and without experience I did not know that he who spends more than he earns is sowing the winds of needless self-indulgence from which he is sure to reap the whirlwinds of trouble and humiliation . So I indulged my whims for fine raiment and bought good luxuries for my good wife and our home, beyond our means.
       " I paid as I could and for a while all went well. but in time I discovered I could not use my earnings both to live upon and to pay debts. creditors began to pursue me to pay for my extravagant purchases and my life became miserable. I borrowed from my friends but could not repay them either. Things went from bad to worse. My wife returned to her father and I decided to leave Babylon and seek another city where a young man might have better chances .
" For two years I had a restless and unsuccessful life working for caravan traders. from this I fell in a set of likable robbers who secured the desert for unarmed caravans. such deeds were unworthy of the son of my father , but I was seeing the world through a colored stone and I did not realize to what degradation I had fallen.
   " We met with success on our first trip, capturing a rich haul of gold and silks and valuable merchandise. This loot we took to Ginir and squandered.
    " The second time we were not so fortunate , just after we had made our capture, we were attacked by the spears men of a native chief to whom the caravans paid for protection. Our two leaders were killed, and the rest of us were taken to Damascus where we were stripped of our clothing and sold as slaves .

GIVE OTHERS THE OPPORTUNITY TO EXPLAIN THEMSELVES. NEVER CONCLUDE FOR OTHERS

GIVE OTHERS THE OPPORTUNITY TO EXPLAIN THEMSELVES .NEVER CONCLUDE FOR OTHERS
A great friend of mine Emmanuel Nwokeocha sent this inspiring and food for thought message to my whatsaap wall and I would luv to share. Please read on.
A lovely little girl was holding two apples with both hands. Her mum came in and softly asked her little daughter with a smile; my sweetie, could you give your mum on of the two apples?
The girl looked up at her mum for some seconds; then she suddenly took a quick bite on one apple, and then quickly on the other. The mum felt the smile on her face freeze. She tried hard not to reveal her disappointment . Then the little girl handed one of her bitten apples to her mum, and said : mummy, here you are .This is the sweeter one.
No matter who you are, how experienced you are and how knowledgeable you think you are, always delay judgement. Give others the opportunity to explain themselves. What you see may not be the reality . Never conclude for others .that is why we should never only focus on the surface and judge others without understanding them first.
Those who like to pay the bill, do so not because they are loaded but because they value friendship above money. Those who take the initiative at work, do so not because they are stupid but because they understand the concept of responsibility . Those who apologize first after a fight, do so not because they are wrong but because they value the people around them. Those who are willing to help you , do so not because they owe you but because the see you as a true friend. Those who often text you , do so not because they have nothing better to do but because you are in their heart. Those who take out time to chat with you, does not mean they are jobless or less busy , but they know the importance of keeping in touch.
That is why it is wise to Discern one's motive before you act, Do not make quick and rash judgement before one's motive is being brought to the limelight. Many have lost friends because they failed to wait patently before they acted and are still wallowing in the pool of regret because they judged and acted rashly. That is why it is necessary to give others the opportunity to explain or show their motives or intentions themselves. Never conclude for others.
