She was raped 7 times in 8 months! School girl reveals how her Computer teacher pays her N30 each times he defiles her

A shameless computer teacher, Cosmos Ubaja, has been arrested for raping a 14-year-old schoolgirl in the Owutu area of Ikorodu.

Punch Newspaper reports it thus:

The victim, Victoria (pseudonym), was lured by the suspect when she went to his shop to make photocopies after school hours.
Our correspondent gathered that Victoria, who attends a public secondary school in Owutu, Ikorodu, had been allegedly raped by the suspect on several occasions in eight months.
PUNCH Metro gathered that the victim, who is in Junior Secondary School, Class 3, was given pittances such as N50, N100 and N30, each time the suspect raped her.
It was learnt that the suspect, who owns a computer centre in the area, was contracted by the school to teach the junior pupils  computer studies.
PUNCH Metro was told that the suspect gave Victoria N30 after the latest rape, which occurred on Wednesday, June 1, 2016.
A police source told our correspondent that the bubble burst when the girl complained to her mother that she had stomach pains and her  menstrual cycle was affected.
She said, “Ubaja is married with a son. He is not a worker of the state government. The school just arranged with him to be teaching the pupils computer studies since he has a computer centre.
“He works on the school’s examination papers and answer sheets. The school is in a very quiet community. Pupils usually go to his centre to make photocopies and train with his computers.
“The suspect had been raping the girl for months. He gave her between N30 and N100 each time.  The girl kept the secret away from her parents.
“But the last time he raped her, she complained to her mother that she was having stomach pains and her menstruation had stopped. She was then taken to a private hospital.
“That was where it was discovered that she had been raped several times. The girl confessed that it was the computer instructor who raped her and he was arrested. He has also confessed to the crime.”
Our correspondent learnt that the matter, which was reported at the Owutu Police Division, was also reported to the Lagos State Domestic and Sexual Violence Response Team, Alausa.
The DSVRT team took the victim for a checkup at the Mirabel Centre, Ikeja.
The group’s Coordinator, Lola Vivour-Adeniyi, said the matter had been transferred to the Gender Unit of the Lagos State Police Command.
She said, “The matter got to our attention on Monday, June 20. The 14-year-old girl was raped by her computer teacher near the school’s premises.
“The teacher and some individuals around the school initially pleaded with the girl’s parents not to report to the police. Fortunately, they rejected the plea.
“The perpetrator is in police custody and the case has been transferred from the division to the Gender Unit at the police headquarters, Ikeja. The Directorate of Public Prosecutions has also requested the duplicate case file.”

‘Nollywood is Getting Bigger, But Stories Are Not The Way They Used To Be” – Alex Usifo

In a recent interview with Sahara Weekly, the actor spoke on his absence from screen.

According to him, Nollywood is getting bigger, but stories are not the way they used to be.

“If you ask me, Nollywood is getting bigger, the only thing is you may complain that the stories are not the way they used to be,” he said.


“When people complain about Nollywood, they complain of the stories and the kind of people they see. Maybe a lot of us, when we are given scripts and we don’t like the story, we can tell them we don’t want to be part of it.
And on their part, they can’t afford us so they settle for less and these things affect good production, because you may have a good story but don’t have the kind of money to pay artistes, equipment, right locations, good direction, good camera man. So if some aspects are not right, it will affect your story.

My Wife Always Tears my Boxers to Pieces and Tries to Rape Me at Night – Man Cries Out in Public

“This court has no choice than to dissolve the union in spite of the fact that the wife still claims she loves her husband.

“Both parties are no longer husband and wife, as the marriage has broken down totally, they are free to go their separate ways,” Omilola ruled

Earlier, the 56-year-old-petitioner, Durojaiye, alleged that his wife was always threatening his life through beating and that he was afraid she might kill him one day.

“I had to run away from my 22-flat building to rent an apartment elsewhere just to avoid her frequent beatings, but she trailed me to my new apartment to fight me.

“I had reported her in the past to different police stations, but it did not yield any positive result,” he said.

Durojaiye, a pensioner, also alleged that his wife poured hot water on the new wife his family married for him from the village.

“Please, separate us before my wife kills me, my life is not safe with her, I am a pensioner, I need to enjoy the fruits of my labour,” he said.

However, the wife, Mrs Adenike Rodoye, denied all the allegations levelled against her by her husband. She alleged that her husband was a womaniser.

“My husband runs after anything in skirt; he always sends me packing from the house whenever he wants to bring in another woman. He once sent me out with the children for three years.

“After sending me out, he had married six different women, but none stayed long with him. He was always begging me return to my matrimonial home later,” she said.

The mother of five said she never raped her husband, adding that it was normal for husband and wife to make love.

Adenike said that her husband removed the plasma television set, the air conditioner and disconnected the electricity supply from her flat, leaving her and the children in the dark.

She said that Durojaiye also fought with her pastor on several occasions and even arrested him with police.

Adenike said that the development led the church’s leadership to ban her from worshipping there.

This Corporal killed and buried an Inspector over N300,000 in Ekiti

A police corporal, Daramola Tosin, attached to the Ekiti Police Division in the Ekiti Local Government Area of Kwara State, has been dismissed from the Force for  killing an inspector, Mr. Lateef Shuaib.

Tosin allegedly shot Shuaib after secretly withdrawing up to N300,000 from Shuaib’s bank account without his consent.
PUNCH Metro learnt that Shuaib had entrusted Tosin with his Automated Teller Machine card when he fell ill.
The suspect was said to have initially withdrawn money for the use of the father of two.
However, it was learnt that the suspect started taking money in bits from the account for his own use until he withdrew up to N300,000.
Shuaib was said to have chided him for the action.
The inspector was reportedly defecating when Tosin shot him dead with an AK-47 rifle and buried him at the back of a police barracks.
The victim’s sister, Sherifat Hammed, was said to have reported to the Osi Police Station on May 10, 2016, that Shuaib had been missing since May 6.
Hammed said she suspected Tosin because her elder brother informed her when he was sick that he entrusted his UBA ATM card to the suspect to help him in withdrawing money.
The Kwara State Commissioner of Police, Mr. Sam Okaula, said when the matter was brought to his attention he ensured that discreet investigation was conducted, adding that the suspect was arrested.
According to him, the corporal confessed to the crime and was dismissed.
Our correspondent learnt that the corporal was made to face an orderly-room trial for leaving his place of duty and for discreditable conduct and was found guilty.
The CP said, “We do not condone crime. We go after anyone including members of the Force who go out of their way to commit crime. We will investigate and prosecute them if found culpable and ensure we gain conviction. This particular dastardly act will not be an exception.”
The suspect was arraigned on Tuesday before a magistrate’s court in Ilorin.
According to the First Information Report obtained by our correspondent in Ilorin, the Kwara State capital, the suspect buried the late inspector at the back of the Osi Police Barracks.
It said, “Investigation conducted at the Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department, Ilorin, revealed that on May 6 at about 10pm, while Inspector Lateef Shuaib was defecating inside the bush, very close to the barracks at the Osi Police Station, you Daramola Tosin, callously and viciously traced him to the bush and shot him with your AK-47 rifle that led to his untimely death and you later buried him inside the bush at the back of Osi Police Barracks without the knowledge of anybody.”
The FIR said the offences were culpable homicide, breach of trust and theft, and were contrary to sections 221, 312 and 289 of the Penal Code.
When the case was called up, the police prosecutor, Inspector James Odaodu, said the offence of murder was capital in nature, adding that the suspect could not be admitted to bail.
He prayed the court to remand the suspect in prison custody.
The magistrate, Mr. Nurudeen Adeyanju, who did not take the plea of the accused, said his court lacked jurisdiction to entertain the matter since it was a murder charge.
He added that it should be handled by the high court.
He, however, ordered that the accused be remanded at the Federal Prison, Mandalla.
The case was adjourned till June 21, 2016, for mention.
Meanwhile, Shuaib’s wife, Mosunmola , 47, of Ife, Olukotun, in the Yagba East of Kogi State, said the death of her husband by someone he trusted was devastating to the family.
She stated that their children, Kudirat, 23, and Sadiat, 20, had been traumatised by the calamity.
She, however, commended the CP and other officers of the command for the investigation and the arraignment of the accused.
Mosunmola said she was hopeful that justice would be done.

BEEF ALERT: Sean Tizzle Disses Sound Sultan, Addresses Skin Bleaching Claims, Song Theft & More in New Interview

In new interview with HFtv, singer Sean Tizzle finally addressed some of the controversies he has recently been embroiled in, his career and new projects.

Some of the issues he touched on include his former boss, Sound Sultan’s claim that he wrote the singer’s smash hit song, ‘Sho Lee’, a claim that CEO of Naija Ninjas made in 2013. Sean Tizzle whose real name is Morihanfen Oluwaseun Oluwabamidele had never addressed that story, until yesterday.

“I write my stuff,” Tizzle said, and explained that Sound Sultan made that claim because of a long-running ‘issue’ they had going on. “Some part of the song was recorded when I was with him, and when I left, I decided to finish it and drop it as a single. So he came back [and said] he wrote the song.”


Sound-Sultan

On the criticisms he received following his November 2015 tweet, where he said that Omawumi’s cover to Adele’s “Hello” was better than the British singer’s version, Sean Tizzle refuses to apologise for it. “It’s my own opinion which I have a right to,” he said, adding that people can say whatever they want to.

On if he will be returning to Twitter ever again, the singer affirmed that he would, adding that the platform is his ‘home’, and he only left to get work done.

And on the constant accusation that he bleaches, the ‘Abiamo’ singer tried to laugh it off, but finally dismissed the criticism. “I don’t know about all that,” he said, adding that “people could still talk. I am just focused on dropping more cool sounds. I think that’s what matters. I have my album coming out in September.”
