Update! Nigerian student assaulted by mob in India says no one came forward to help him

The Nigerian national who was assaulted in Greater Noida has said that no one helped them while they were being beaten up and claimed that he had no clue why he was assaulted.

"We don’t know why we were assaulted, the mob hit us with rods, bricks and knives.
We asked people around for help, but not one called the police. Even our colleagues did not help,"  said the Nigerian national as quoted by ANI.

Meanwhile, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has assured thorough investigation and action over the incident. The UP government has said that a report will be provided to the Centre on the incident soon. 

"Attack on Nigerian students is a serious issue. Proper probe will be done. Report will be provided to Centre at earliest,” said UP Minister Siddharth Nath Singh.

The police have filed an FIR and five people have been arrested in connection with the assault on the Nigerian nationals in Greater Noida on Monday.

It all began when Manish Khari, a Class 12 student in Greater Noida, died, reportedly of drug overdose on Friday. It was reported that the boy was last been seen with five Nigerian students who lived in the neighbourhood.

Soon after the rumours spread, the locals raided their home and also accused them of being cannibals. The five Nigerian students were booked for killing Khari and were later released after the questioning.

External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj intervened into the matter on Monday night and sought a report from the Uttar Pradesh government over the attack on the Nigerian national. She also spoke to Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath over the incident.
Meanwhile, Khari’s family insists that the police file murder charges against the Nigerian students.  Nigerian students have been protesting against murder chargers and have held mass demonstrations. “Black lives matter,” “We demand justice,” and “Skin tone is not a crime” were some slogans that were heard outside the Kasna police station in Greater Noida during a protest on Sunday.

Lobatan! Burglar Gets Stuck On Fence With His Trousers Down

Lobatan! Burglar Gets Stuck On Fence With His Trousers Down

A suspected thief was reportedly arrested in Tucson, Arizona, on Friday after he was spotted in a rather unusual position: dangling from a fence by his trousers. Witnesses said the hapless fellow had been seen trying to open some doors at Miles Elementary School at around 10.30 on Friday morning. There were no pupils on site at the time due to the school being on holiday.

When the man realised he'd been spotted, witnesses say he tried to clamber over the school's spiked fence - but slipped, snagged his trousers on the fence, and ended up hanging upside-down on the fence with his trousers at half mast.

Passerby Jesse Sensibar saw him hanging there and took a photo, which he later uploaded to Facebook saying: "One more reason not to jump fences in baggy pants. "I saw this homie hanging around at the Miles School this morning when I was rolling eastbound on Broadway Avenue. I was going to help him off the fence but by the time I got back around the block the cops were rolling up two cars deep.

"I don't know what his story was but it must not have been good enough, fifteen minutes later when I went back by the other direction going home he was cuffed up in the backseat. He smiled for the camera."

Omg! Massive sinkhole suddenly appears on busy road and almost swallows bus carrying 21 passengers

When next you want to wish for the floor to open up and swallow you, just know that it's not exactly impossible for that to happen as can be seen with what happened in China on Friday.

A passenger bus carrying 21 people escaped by seconds the tragedy of being swallowed by a massive sinkhole which appeared all of a sudden on a busy road in Nanning Guangxi, China.

In the heart-stopping clip, a car can be seen passing by after which a part of the road sunk all of a sudden creating a huge hole just as the passenger bus was approaching. Luckily, the driver stopped just in time.

A camera inside the bus shows the bus shaking with the driver desperately accelerating over the collapsing road with only seconds to spare.Luckily, nobody was injured and that part of the road was later sectioned off and concrete was poured into the sink hole.

Sinkholes are quite common all over the world, especially in the U.S. These holes open up suddenly without any sign or warning and people have in fact become victims and fallen into these holes.

Nigerian man arrested in India for duping a woman by posing as prospective groom on matrimonial site

A 36-year-old Nigerian national and his accomplice, were arrested on Monday, March 20,  from Sriniwaspuri in Delhi for cheating a woman of over Rs 9 lakh.
Hilary Nnamdi Okoli and 34-year-old Reena Basumatari were arraigned in a Gurgaon court on Tuesday and taken on four days' police custody.

According to Times Of India, in the first week of February, Mr Okoli met Pooja (name changed), an engineer working with a reputable company in DLF-3, on a matrimonial site where he posed as a prospective groom. He introduced himself as Jeff Dennis, an engineer settled in the UK.

As Pooja found Okoli's 'profile' interesting, they exchanged phone numbers. Soon they started interacting through WhatsApp calls. Both shared information about their family background. She asked Okoli to visit India and meet her parents, to which he gave his consent.

On February 28, Pooja received a call from Okoli informing her that he had reached Mumbai. Minutes later, Pooja's phone rang and this time it was from a man, who claimed to be from the customs department, informing Pooja that Okoli had been detained as he was carrying 45,000 pounds (Rs 37 lakh approx) in cash. He asked her to deposit Rs 42,000 as penalty after which Okoli would be released and given 5% of the total amount in cash, the rest would be credited to her bank acccounts.

After depositing the amount, Pooja received another call informing her that as Okoli was given 5% of the amount in cash he told them that he needed more cash as he wanted to buy gifts and jewellery for Pooja. She asked the 'official' for a solution that would ensure that Okoli got more cash in hand. Pooja ended up depositing Rs 9,45,700 through 12 online transactions into 10 different accounts.

 "After depositing Rs 9,45,700, I received a mail from reservebankindia111111@gmail.com that the money (pending amount from Rs 36,59,884) will be credit to my account only after I upgrade my account, for which I was asked to deposit Rs 32,25,000. I got suspicious and contacted my bank. The branch manager informed me that I had been duped. When I tried calling Jeff, his phone was switched off," Pooja said.

An FIR under sections 420 (cheating) of the IPC and Section 66-D of IT act was registered against the accused at the City police station and the case was assigned to the cyber crime cell.

Omg! Gang war leaves one person dead in Mushin

New crisis broke out on Monday between touts at Alamutu and Akala streets in Mushin, Lagos, leaving one person dead and scores injured.

The fight, as gathered, was a spill-over of Sunday’s fight, following an interruption of a candle light procession by Alamutu Boys.

A resident, Kayode told Vanguard that “the two groups used to be together until Alamutu Boys pulled out. They used to form a gang to fight other people around Mushin and Somolu. But the Alamutu Boys complained that they were not being treated fairly when sharing money and other things. That was why they pulled out. But in this case, Alamutu Boys were having a candle light procession for one of their own, a conductor, who died in an auto crash on Sunday. The team had barely reached Alamutu Street when they were attacked by Akala Boys".

“Gunshots rented the air, with both sides using dangerous weapons freely. Innocent passers-by were robbed. People sustained injuries on both sides. We learned that some people died".

The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, Olarinde Famous-Cole, confirmed the death of one person saying,

“The police responded to a distress call of a clash between two gangs. A dead body was recovered in the process.”

Northern Elders Forum: We Are Ready To Divide Nigeria Now

We Are Ready to Divide Nigeria Now, Says Northern Elders Forum
Prof Ango Abdullahi -spokesperson of the Northern Elders Forum, a think-tank for the 19 Northern states, has said that the north is ready if Nigeria decides to break up.Read more after cut....

In an interview with Sunday Sun, Ango, a politician, professor of Agronomy, one-time Vice Chancellor of Ahmadu Bello University who attended four constitutional conferences in Nigeria threw a challenge to those who think that the North is afraid of Nigeria’s disintegration into more basic constituents, saying the North was ever ready for the dissolution and that the way to go about it was through the calling of a formal meeting with complete powers to terminate the legal relationships between the constituent parts in Nigeria.


According to him, If we agree that we should live together as a people and as a country, so be it, but if the general consensus is that Nigerians want to go their separate ways either on the basis of ethnicity, culture, history or religion, why not; why not, adding, “if anybody tells you that the large informed opinion in the North is against the dissolution of Nigeria, he is telling you lies.”
Reacting to a question on the readiness of the North for a dissolution, the agronomist, replied: “Absolutely, absolutely, we are.

It all depends on the selfish way people want to negotiate.
I am 78 now and I also went to the only university in the country at the time in Ibadan. Nobody can tell me about the history of this country.
I know a lot about it because I was very much awake and a grown up person to know what happened.
“The people who argued for the creation of states in 1966/67 are the same people today who are asking for the restructuring of Nigeria with particular preference for regional arrangements.
The South-west wants preferably a region, a region that was at one time under the leadership of Chief Awolowo, unless, of course, you are trying to ignore all the writings, all the things that had been written, particularly in their declaration called DAWN, Development Agenda for Western Nigeria, then you can ignore this.”


He further noted that “Biafrans who are saying the same thing. Chief Ekwueme is my respected leader.

“He was in the 1995/96 conference. In fact, he led the Igbo socio-cultural group to the conference and their proposal in that conference was for Nigeria to become a confederate unit. And of course, at that time, perhaps, there was still the feeling that some hopes still remain that Nigeria should paddle along and perhaps they will overcome some of these differences.
His proposal for confederate arrangement was defeated in the conference. I was there. But when he got the opportunity to review the report of the conference, a committee was set up to look at the report of the conference.

He was the one who really worked for these so-called geo-political areas that is totally unconstitutional.
They are not part of our constitution and this is one of the mistakes that the country is going through. Geo-political zones are not units in our constitutional arrangements.
They are selfish conveniences of people who are perhaps clamouring for political positions, elective or otherwise, that are operating today to the detriment of good governance in this country.”


Prof Ango Abdullahi further reacted to why the North is ready for dissolution, speaking on the indices, he said: “The biggest indices other Nigerians do not want Nigeria; so I don’t see why the North should insist on having Nigeria. That is the biggest index I have. And this is on the basis of the recent statements
