ABUJA, - The Supreme Court on Friday sacked five state governors whose tenure elapsed in May 29 last year.
The governors are Ibrahim Idris (Kogi), Murtala Nyako (Adamawa), Timipre Sylva (Bayelsa), Aliyu Wamakko (Sokoto) and Liyel Imoke (Cross River). They are all members of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).  The decision was taken by a seven-member panel chaired by Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN), Justice Dahiru Musdapher. Other members of the panel are Justices Mahmud Mukhtar, Walter Onnonghen, Chukwuma Ene, Ibrahim Coomasie, Olufunlola Adekeye and Mary Peter-Odili. The judgment is in an appeal by the Congress for Progressive Change (CPC) governorship candidate in Adamawa State, Brig.-Gen. Buba Marwa and the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC). The appellants are challenging the decision of the Court of Appeal, Abuja, which upheld the decision of an Abuja Federal High Court that extended the tenure of the five governors beyond May 29, 2011. |

SHOCKING: 8 years Old Girl Raped and Murdered By Father's Friend
|
Our correspondent learnt that the girl’s
younger brother, Obedient, was present in the house and he overheard
Atagha asking her to go out with him so that he could buy her something.
The boy said he warned his sister not to go out since it was late. When it was 9.30 pm, the girl’s family began to look for her. Francis said they were worried since she had never stayed out late at night and nobody in the house had sent her on errand. Later, he asked Obedient whether he knew the whereabouts of the girl and was informed that Atagha had taken her out. Francis said, “When we did not see her throughout the night, my friends, including my tenants and I went to Atagha’s house to ask him about my daughter’s whereabouts. “He denied ever seeing the girl that day. He told us that we had come to incur his wrath for something he had no knowledge of. But when he noticed that we were very serious, he ran away and we did not see him for many days. “When we took the matter to his family, he appeared and confessed that he did it and that we should not let any other person hear about the matter.” Francis had quickly informed the police about the matter immediately and Atagha was arrested. He said, “I only did my bit by informing the police about the alleged killer of my daughter. Because I am poor, many people seem to take advantage of my situation and treat me badly. “I don’t know if the police will be able to avenge my daughter’s death. My daughter was easy-going, obedient and loving. I could not imagine how somebody – not even my own friend–could do this type of thing to me. The world is wicked. This is an abominable offence.” Francis said that his daughter’s corpse was still lying in the bush where Atagha allegedly hacked her to death. Part of the body, especially the belly, had begun to decompose. But the face was still recognisable. He said the corpse was left there as evidence and that they would only bury the girl once the police gave them the go-ahead to do so. One of the tenants and a close friend to Francis, who gave his name as Innocent, described the slain girl as too precious to lose. He said the victim could cook any type of food and when somebody sent her on errand, she would promptly go without any argument. He said, “This is not the type of girl anybody can lose. Great injustice has been done to the little girl. We hope the government will intervene in this matter.” The spokesman for the Akwa Ibom State Police Command, Mr. Onyekaozuru Orji, confirmed the incident and said the Police had arrested the alleged killer. Orji said the the matter was under investigation and if it was established that Atagha actually raped and murdered the girl, he would be charged to court for manslaughter. Source: Punch |

SOCIAL ISSUES: President calls Boko-Haram for Dialogue!!!
Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan challenged violent Islamist sect
Boko Haram on Thursday to identify themselves and state clearly their
demands as a basis for talks, while acknowledging that military
confrontation alone will not end their insurgency.
In an interview with Reuters at the presidential villa in the capital Abuja, Jonathan also said there was no doubt that Boko Haram had links with other jihadist groups outside Nigeria.
"If they clearly identify themselves now and say this is the reason why we are resisting, this is the reason why we are confronting government or this is the reason why we destroy some innocent people and their properties ... then there will be a basis for dialogue," Jonathan said.
"We will dialogue, let us know your problems and we will solve your problem but if they don't identify themselves, who will you dialogue with?"
But he cautioned that the crisis would be much harder to resolve than the one in the oil rich southeastern Niger Delta, which was largely defused in 2009 under an amnesty he helped broker.

The victim of the robbery incident, who was PW2 (prosecution witness), a Principal Lecturer attached to the College of Education Warri, narrated how he tip-toed to the window, opened the blind gently and saw the 1st accused person, Patrick Ekeh and another member of the gang now deceased before shouting for help.
Justice Fred of Oleh High Court in Delta, in his judgment stated that “in the final analysis, I uphold defence of alibi of the 2nd accused persons. It ought to have been investigated by the police but was not. And besides, he was not one of those sighted by the PW2 when he took a peep through the window of his house and so no evidence fixing him at the scene and sufficient to dislodge the alibi raised by him.
While sentencing the accused, he said, “this is an offence of armed robbery for which I have no discretion. The penalty is death and I am not in a position not to impose it. To this end, the accused person is sentenced to death by handing in the neck until he is dead”, the judge stated.

According our investigations, the actress willingly took these pictures last year behind the scenes on set whiles shooting the movie “Adults Only” produced by controversial movie producer Socrate Safo, for Movie Africa.
However, when Peacefmonline.com contacted Socrates Safo he denied knowledge of the said nude pictures. Socrate said nothing like that happened on set during the shooting of “Adults Only” even though he admits the said actress played the role of a lesbian in the movie.
Peacefmonline.com investigation also reveals that the pictures, numbering over ten different shots were taken by a male colleague on set as Angela is seen happily smiling and posing A source also disclosed that the same girl took some topless pictures during the shooting a TV commercial for a popular alcoholic product.
“I don’t know if the pictures you have are the same pictures,” the source said.
From all indications, it seems the actress in question enjoys going topless for the camera for reasons best known to her as several people in the industry who spoke to Peacefmonline.com were not surprised to see her pictures.
Angela has starred in about 50 top adverts like; Vodaphone, Captains Dry Gin, Premier Soap, Playboy Liqueur, Sun Silk Hair Pomade, Pusher Bitters, Merchant Bank, Pretty Lady with Stacy etc.
She has also featured in some popular music videos by renowned artistes such as Kwesi Pee, Reggie Rockstone ft Beenie Man, Amakye Dede, Rex Omar as well as Okyeame Kofi. She also has about 4 movies to her credit, with titles like “Hot Fork”, “Adults Only”, “Sons of Satan”, and the upcoming “Hotel Babylon”. Her claim to fame was the role she played in Captain’s Dry Gin TV commercial.
All attempts by Peacefmonline.com to reach the actress have proven futile.
