She was arraigned before a Federal High Court sitting in Yenagoa by the Department of State Services (DSS) over the allegation.   She was also accused of blackmailing Liverpool, to extort the sum of N15 million him.    The DSS, in the suit numbered FHC/YNG/33C/2021, filed one count against the defendant, alleging that she engaged in cyber-stalking with the intention of blackmail, which is contrary to Section 24(2)c and punishable under subparagraph (b) of the cybercrime (prohibition, prevention, etc) Act, 2015.   The charge read to the defendant said, “That you, Charlotte Delhi on the 14th day of September, 2021 in Yenagoa within the jurisdiction of this honourable court for the purpose of extorting the sum of N15 million from Dr. Walton Liverpool, intentionally posted a video showing the naked appearance of the said Dr. Walton Liverpool on a WhatsApp group tagged 'Off Liverpool' with an Iphone7 plus mobile phone and GSM. No. 08084267342.”   The Defendant, Delhi, however, pleaded not guilty to the charge.   The Principal Legal Officer of the DSS, Victor Uchendu Esq, a former Attorney-General of Bayelsa State and counsel for the Defendant, A.S. Arthur Esq disagreed on the issue of bail application but agreed that the trial should enjoy accelerated hearing.   Victor Uchendu Esq argued that the defence counsel had just a few hours before the trial handed him the application for bail process.    He also said the key witness to the case was not in good health condition, therefore, seeking the judge’s leave for adjournment.  "I was served the bail application two hours before the court sitting and there was no time for me to study the weighty allegations," he said.    Meanwhile, Arthur argued that the defence team would have loved for the presiding Judge to hear the application for bail based on the age and gender of the accused.  "She has been in detention for over 13 days," he noted, adding the DSS had refused to grant her lawyers access to her.    The Presiding Judge, Justice Isa Dashen however adjourned the suit for hearing to Thursday, October 21, 2021, and ordered that the accused be remanded in the State Correctional Centre in Okaka.   The nude video of Liverpool was allegedly circulated on social media by the accused reportedly after the refusal of her victim to succumb to blackmail.

Thugs From Oyo Transport Union Attack Peoples Democratic Party Congress, Destroy Over 100 Vehicles

Download from Play store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.TonyGists.TonyGistsapp A member of the PDP, Omolaja Alao, was cut with matchet by the suspected political thugs at the main entrance of the venue of the congress.     More than 100 vehicles were destroyed by thugs suspected to be members of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW) in Oyo State on Saturday when they attacked the venue of a parallel congress organised by aggrieved members of the Peoples Democratic Party, according to SaharaReporters. A member of the PDP, Omolaja Alao, was cut with matchet by the suspected political thugs at the main entrance of the venue of the congress. SaharaReporters learnt that some journalists also narrowly escaped an attack by the hoodlums who arrived at Jogor centre, the venue of the Congress in a white bus. According to witnesses, the attackers started destroying the windscreens of vehicles parked by the roadside from the Ring Road axis of the road to Liberty Road before entering the motor park of the halls. SaharaReporters gathered that about 76 buses hired to convey members of the party were also vandalised. It took the intervention of the backup of security agencies in the state before the attackers were chased out of the area and one of them was arrested. Speaking with reporters after the incident, a leader of the aggrieved members of the party, Alhaji Adebisi Olopoeniyan, described the attack as unfortunate and unexpected. He appealed to aggrieved members of the party not to take law into their hand, saying the leaders would take necessary steps to address the issue. "This is unfortunate and uncalled for. We were safe as opposition even during the era of the late Senator Abiola Ajobi as the governor. Why all this?” he asked. A leader of the party in the Ibadan North Local Government Area, Gboyega Akiola, said he could identify one of the attackers, Idrisu Ado, as a member of the motor park management in the state. He said, “We know ourselves. They almost killed me before the gate was shut behind them. I was behind the man that was cut with matchets but because I am still young and strong, they couldn't hit me. But it is better for the governor to call his co-travellers to order, else, the state won't accommodate us all.”

#EndSARS: How Buhari's Gov't, Lagos Governor Sanwo-Olu Mobilised Armed Thugs To Attack Unarmed Protesters — Sowore

TonyGists App 3 Out Now. Download from Play store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.TonyGists.TonyGistsapp Sowore condemned the hypocrisy of Nigerian leaders who have asked youths to desist from organising a protest in honour of the victims of the #EndSARS protest.     Omoyele Sowore, the popular Nigerian human rights activist, has said President Muhammadu Buhari's regime mobilised armed thugs to disrupt the #EndSARS protest which was organised by young Nigerians last year.  The protest was organised to seek an end to police brutality, among other demands.  He stated this in a post on his Facebook page on Sunday.  Sowore condemned the hypocrisy of Nigerian leaders who have asked youths to desist from organising a protest in honour of the victims of the #EndSARS protest, citing alleged plans by hoodlums to hijack the protests.  According to him, Buhari's regime conveyed thugs in government-registered vehicles to attack peaceful protesters, leading to the death of some of the demonstrators.  He further said the Lagos State governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu gave out air-conditioned BRT buses to the hoodlums to invade a protest venue last October. The post reads: “Throughout the #EndSARS protests in October 2020, the Muhammadu Buhari regime mobilised well-armed thugs to attack unarmed #EndSARS protesters here in Abuja, they were ferried around in Government registered vehicles, some of them mobilised through Jabi Park, they injured and even killed two peaceful protesters.  “In Lagos, Gov. Sanwo-Olu gave out official air-conditioned state-owned commercial BRT buses to thugs to attack #EndSARS peaceful protesters camped at the Lagos State House of Assembly, when they didn’t succeed, they mobilised the HQ Nigerian Army to shoot and murder innocent #Endsarsprotesters at #Lekkitollgate, that global terrorism carried out against innocent young Nigerian citizens by Muhammadu Buhari, Jide Sanwo-Olu and then Chief of Army Staff Yusuf Tukur Buratai led to the untimely but brutal deaths of many. “Now the same government is claiming they are worried about 'hoodlums hijacking' the #EndSARSmemorial.  “Muhammadu Buhari, Babajide Sanwo-Olu and DSS (Department of State Services) men accompanying hoodlums are the real HOODLUMS! #RevolutionNow #BuhariMustGo.” Buhari had in the past claimed last year’s #EndSARS protest against police brutality was aimed at removing him from office. He added that those who participated in the protest have made Nigeria unattractive to investors. “This question was answered last year when there was the #EndSARS protest. You remember the young people that wanted to march here and remove me? “Tell the young people to behave themselves and make the country safe, then we can attract real investors to the country,” he had said during an interview with Arise TV. The #EndSARS protest, which was held between October 8 and 20 last year, was a public outcry for an end to police brutality, extrajudicial killings, extortion and abuse of power, especially by officers of the defunct Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS). The protest, which started peacefully, led to the disbandment of SARS by the Nigerian government. The protest was brought to a halt on October 20, 2020, when officers of the Nigerian Army shot at the protesters, killing and injuring some of them at the Lekki Toll Gate in Lagos. This year, the Nigeria Police have threatened to quash any protest held in memory of the victims.

In a statement released to newsmen in Abuja on Saturday by the National Publicity Secretary of the group, Mr. Ifeanyi Emeka, the group said the central idea behind the vaccination is to save lives as Jesus Christ would have done if he were to be alive in this generation. It said compulsory vaccination is not from the pit of hell. The statement noted that as a spiritual father, the group was very proud of Pastor Enenche for leading the Christian folks back to God, especially the several charitable works and donations made during the lockdowns, but then, the pastor ought to have known that COVID-19 is still virulent and is constantly looking for who to kill on a daily basis. “However, we’re praying that God will further open the spiritual eyes of pastor Enenche and other men of God opposed to compulsory vaccination so that they can see how deadly the virus is and probably recommit themselves to the ongoing battle against the virus,” the statement added. DAILY POST reports that Enenche had said that the move to make COVID-19 vaccination compulsory for everyone across the globe is a demonic agenda from the “pit of hell”. The clergyman made the assertion during the ‘Early Will I Seek You’, a daily programme at the church’s headquarters, Glory Dome, Abuja on Friday.

How Police IG Disobeyed Osinbajo, Continued To Detain Gloria Okolie Illegally For 4 Months – 36 Civil Societies Petition National Assembly

TonyGists App 3 Out Now. Download from Play store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.TonyGists.TonyGistsapp The 36 human rights groups spoke in a petition dated October 15, 2021, and addressed to the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila.     Gloria Okolie As many as thirty-six human rights and civil organisations have raised a petition to the House of Representatives in Abuja, over the Nigeria Police Force’s continued illegal detention of Gloria Okorie, a 21-year-old woman from Orlu, Imo State, and the police's disobedience to court orders, according to SaharaReporters. The 36 human rights groups in a petition dated October 15, 2021, and addressed to the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila, said the NPF under Inspector-General of Police, Usman Baba, ignored a directive from the Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo, on Okolie and had rather chosen to keep her in illegal detention. SaharaReporters had in several reports detailed how Okolie, from Orlu/Orsu and Oru East Federal Constituency, was clamped in police detention for over four months – a period of over 120 days. She was arrested on June 17, 2021 and detained secretly by the Inspector-General of Police's Intelligence Response Team (IRT) at their Tiger Base office in Owerri, Imo State, before she was transferred to the Abuja headquarters of IRT. The petition, titled, “Re: Continued Indefinite Detention of Gloria Okorie by the Nigeria Police and Police’s Flagrant Disobedience to Court Orders to Release her or charge her to court,” was sent to Gbajabiamila through Jerry Alagbaoso, the Chairman, House Committee on Public Petitions and Member Representing Orlu/ Orsu/ and Oru East Federal Constituency, Imo State at the House of Representatives. The civil societies said, “We, the undersigned human rights and civil society organizations in Nigeria, write to you most respectfully regarding Gloria Okorie, the 21-year-old female from Orlu, Imo State under Orlu/Orsu and Oru East Federal Constituency, who has been in police detention for over 4 months. For 120 days, the police have continued to stubbornly and contemptuously detain Gloria in defiance of several legitimate efforts to release her, including a court order on the police to release her on bail or immediately charge her to court, repeated pleas and efforts by her parents, family members and lawyers to secure her bail, civil society demands for her release on the grounds of her constitutional rights under Nigeria’s 1999 constitution as well as public outcry and media reports and critical commentaries over her continued detention by the police in flagrant violation of the law. “This is an indictment on the rule of law credentials of the present Buhari government. Mr. Speaker, for weeks Gloria’s parents and relatives searched for their daughter, running from community to community, hospitals to morgues, police station to police station, and churches, in search of any lead until her whereabouts was eventually disclosed by a commercial motorcyclist that was arrested alongside with Gloria two weeks earlier. This Good Samaritan traced Gloria’s family to inform them of the location of their 'missing' daughter. The police issued a belated and face-saving statement through their public relations unit claiming that Gloria was a spy girl for IPOB/ESN. This was in response to public outrage over her secret detention and enslavement for 70 days without charging her to court as required by law and causing her and her parents and community serious trauma. “Mr. Speaker, which parent would sleep as much as with one eye while your daughter is missing? Even after confirming that your daughter is in police detention, which parent will be at ease not having access to her, not knowing her state of health, not being able to hold her and support her and reassure her that all will be well. Gloria is a student who sat for her JAMB exam shortly before her arrest. With her arrest and continued indefinite detention, she cannot write post-UTME, and whatever dream of acquiring higher education she has, may be jeopardised by the Police.  “Mr. Speaker, for the 120 days in unlawful detention, the IRT has stripped Gloria of every fundamental right guaranteed under the Nigeria 1999 constitution. The right to fair hearing; Right to speedy trial, Right to legal representation; Presumption of innocence until convicted by a competent court, Right to dignity. For 120 days, Gloria has been denied access to family. She has been denied access to a lawyer. With the conduct of the IRT, it is safe to conclude that the Police have already convicted Gloria even without a trial. They have deliberately and consistently kept Gloria incommunicado. “For decades the Police have remained a notorious institutional violator of human rights. Unfortunately, this culture carried over from colonial rule, through military rule now constitutes a major threat to our nascent democracy. Several writings on insecurity in Nigeria have identified the threats posed by police impunity to democracy and public safety. “The continued detention of Gloria without bail or charge should concern you and every Nigerian genuinely committed to the rule of law and public safety. We had addressed a petition dated September 19, 2021 to the Vice President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria seeking his intervention to ensure the release of this poor girl. The Vice President replied through a letter dated 23 September, 2021 acknowledging our letter and informed that he had forwarded our submission to the Inspector General of Police for 'urgent investigation and necessary action'. “Three weeks after the Vice President forwarded the letter to the IGP, Gloria Okorie remains in unlawful custody. We have not been informed of any reason why the police will continue to defy public opinion, court orders and the Vice President's directive. Therefore, having exhausted all avenues to make the Police act in accordance with the law unsuccessfully, we are writing to you as a father and the Speaker of the House of Representatives of the Federal Republic of Nigeria to kindly use your good offices to intervene in the continuing detention of Gloria by the Police and help bring an end to the trauma and plight of her parents, family, and community.  “May we also inform you that in a vengeful move, the police had to lure back to the station the commercial motorcyclist that revealed Gloria's whereabouts, re-arrested and mercilessly brutalized him. He has been arraigned with a phantom terrorism charge for disclosing that Gloria and other detainees have been secretly held in IRT custody in Owerri, Imo State. Hundreds of other youths are similarly languishing in secret detention. “This is not acceptable in a democracy. It is also important that the House investigates the predatory policing strategy ongoing in Imo State to ascertain the fate and/or whereabouts of several other young people randomly picked up and taken away by the police in Imo State by IRT and other units in the pretext of searching for IPOB/ESN members. All young people in Imo State are certainly not all IPOB/ESN members, and the Police should not continue to act on that premise or continue to turn the 'war' against IPOB into a war against the youth in Imo State or an opportunity to oppress and prey on residents of the state.” The civil societies are; Civic Space Consortium, Spaces for Change, Rule of Law and Accountability Advocacy Centre (RULAAC), Foundation for Environmental Rights, Advocacy & Development (FENRAD Nigeria), International Peace and Civic Responsibility Centre (IPCRC), Human Rights Social Development and Environmental Foundation (HURSDEF), Public Enlightenment Project (PEP), Citizens' Solution Network, Centre for Community Empowerment and Poverty Eradication (CCEPE), Dinidari Foundation, Agape Care Initiative, Centre for Impact Advocacy, Youth Initiative Against Violence and Human Rights Abuse (YIAVHA), Dorothy Njemanze Foundation (DNF), FEMBUD, The Interactive Initiative for Social Impact, Tap Initiative, the HUMAN RIGHTS DEFENDERS(HURIDE) ANAMBRA STATE CHAPTER, Lex Initiative for Rights Advocacy and Development (LIRAD) and the Centre Against Injustice and Domestic Violence (CAIDOV).

But in an interview with Saturday Beats, the actress said she once battled with body insecurity, no thanks to her knock knees. Afegbai said, “I think fashion is not just about the body because some people have the body but they do not know how to carry it or can’t get a good designer that understands what they want. Even if you don’t have a perfect body, as people would say, you can always design things to suit your body and cover your flaws. "I also have flaws but I have learnt to live with my flaws. We are not all perfect. Everyone has something they don’t like in their body but you would get to a point where you would appreciate what God has given you. I used to be very insecure about my knock knees that I could not wear shorts. You can never catch me with bum shorts because I used to think that my legs are not very straight. But as I grew older, I got to know that I have nothing to be ashamed of. A lot of people still look nice despite not having certain things. It is okay not to have certain things.” Speaking about marriage, the sexy actress revealed that she develops cold feet about marriage sometimes. Afegbai said, “I do not look at people’s marriages or people’s lives. I believe in individuality, I believe that people should not look at people’s lives to judge others. It does not make sense. But naturally, I have a fear of marriage. My cold feet have nothing to do with the Internet. I am now learning to draw close to God. I have the mentality that as a Christian, I will enjoy the good of everything. It means that if I get married, by God’s grace, my marriage will work out. But it still does not mean I do not have cold feet. I am at the point where I leave everything to God. I love family, I love kids, I want an amazing husband. But at the end of the day, I want what God wants for me. “I have my cold feet because of the generation we are in now. This generation does not take marriage seriously as before. We don’t understand what marriage is. So, it takes the grace of God to get there. Any little marriage issue this generation wants a divorce but it is only normal to have issues in marriage. If not for the social media age, the settlement will be quicker. I am not saying one cannot leave when one is not happy. Of course, one can leave when it is affecting one’s peace of mind. I will not lose myself and happiness for love. I will only attract people who are comfortable with my lifestyle. However, I can compromise certain things that do not affect my peace for love. Imagine I meet a man who does not like me going out every day. I can reduce my going out for the sake of love but I won’t stop going out totally.”

Abarawe was arrested alongside two other suspected kidnappers, Jacob Goto and Akpadulaha Yamoh.  The suspects who have been on the police wanted list were alleged to have engaged in multiple kidnappings in the state including attacks on several operators of sand excavation firms popularly called ” Burrow Pit”. It was gathered that Abarawe used his relationship with the organization to get first-hand information about the big wig employees and then recruited the kidnappers to abduct them for ransom.  According to crime correspondent, Festus Alenkhe, the security guard took them to the company where they surveyed the environment before kidnapping the manager, Mr Kingsley Osazuwa.  The victim was taken through Ikpoba River on Benin-Agbor road in Edo state to an unknown destination. The abductors established communication with the family, demanding N10 million. After severe negotiation, the company parted with N3.5 million to effect his release. Similarly, on the 20th July 2021, the suspects also stormed another sand excavation firm in Benin city where one Mr Ehikioya was kidnapped. The victim was also taken through Ikpoba River to an unknown destination where they opened ransom negotiation. The man was released after the suspects collected an unknown ransom. On 24th July 2021, the suspects invaded another Burrow pit in Benin city and kidnapped the Director, who was whisked through Ikpe river to a creek in Delta state.  But trouble started after the security guard who gave the kidnapping information felt cheated from the money collected from the victims leading to a fallout. Abarawe who later escaped to Warri in Delta state was first arrested by men of the Edo state police command’s Anti-Kidnapping and Cyber Crime unit. He then named other members of the gang who were immediately arrested by detectives. One of the suspects, Jacob Goto, told Standard Gazette that he escaped from Prison in October 2020 after the cells were forced open during the ENDSARS protest in Benin city. "I was in the Sapele road prison in Benin city. When I came out, a guy called me that there were some persons in the Burrow pits that had money and said we should kidnap them. We monitored them and kidnapped some of them. I was previously imprisoned for kidnapping and armed robbery too." he added.  Spokesperon of the command, SP Bello Kontongs, who confirmed the arrest assured that the police will arrest other members of the gang now at large. "The police in Edo state will not allow kidnappers and other criminals to take over the public space without arrest" he stated.

In a post shared on his Instagram page this evening, the singer reacted to the decision of the state Commissioner of Police barring interested persons from staging any EndSARS remembrance protest. Falz in his post said innocent people were killed just because they were asking not to be killed or brutalized''. He said it has been over a year since the unfortunate incident and no one has been punished for the crime.  ''20:10:20 [update] They killed innocent souls that were simply asking not to be killed or brutalized. A year later, no one has been punished yet for those heinous crimes. A supposed Police Commisioner “warned” against citizens exercising their fundamental human rights. Yes a Police Commisioner. A couple of well meaning citizens decided to put together a summit to reflect on last year’s events & honour the lost souls. Event centre pulls out (“instructions from above”) As I type this, there is already HEAVY police presence at the Lekki toll gate. Best thing they could come up with is organizing “concerts” to try and distract us from remembering the real heroes in all of this. The people they murdered. What we will never do, however, is be quiet. We will NEVER EVER EVER EVER be silenced. Not today, not on the 20th, not ever.''

The actor said this in a recent Facebook post, where he stated that lack of communication is one of the worst possible things that can happen in any relationship. He advised that if one’s relationship gets to a point where there is a total loss of communication, such a union becomes a waste of time. The actor said, “The worst possible thing that can happen to any relationship is for partners to second-guess each other due to a break-down in our lack of communication. “It’s true that talking about issues could be exhausting, especially if your partner is someone who doesn’t listen or someone who doesn’t put in the efforts to change things. “But I have to say this: If your relationship has gotten to that point where you no longer communicate your feelings to each other because you think that doing so is a waste of time. Please, quit it. “It’s better to liberate yourself from the emotional, psychological, and mental torture than to remain stuck in it, because surely, what you have going is not a relationship. It’s perpetual suffering.”

We terminate the demonic false vaccination agenda all around the earth.   “In case you don’t know, compulsory vaccination is from the pit of hell. Nobody is ever permitted to be given an injection by force for any reason. It is from the pit of hell. That is what you are praying about.   “Anybody who is sick has the right to be treated and anybody by choice can receive any medication, any time.

Ba also had trials at the likes of Watford, Swansea, Gillingham and Barnsley as a youngster but never ended up getting offered a deal. “Ninety percent of the time, the feedback I got was, ‘We have the same quality of player in the squad already.’ “They didn’t realise that I was training twice a week with amateurs at the time, not six times a week with professionals. “I was told, ‘You’re not good enough’, but I didn’t want to hear that, to me, it was, ‘You’re not good enough for me’. “I just refused to give up. I remember writing letters to the top 40 clubs in France by hand, asking for a trial. “I never thought about rejection, only the next chance.” Ba announced his retirement from football on 13 September 2021.
