But, on Friday, 23rd of November, 2018, Ikechuchkwu invited few friends to a funeral service without the approval of his kinsmen.

And to the surprise of everyone, only a carved wood was found inside. But despite her cries, Ikechukwu still went ahead to bury the wood. Now, some villagers have called on

      Lagos State House of Assembly has condemned alleged killings of innocent citizens by men of the Nigerian Custom Service across the State. Hon. David Setonji, representing Badagry Constituency II, moved the motion under Matters of Urgent Public Importance. He stated that there was the need to call the officers to order as their conduct within the State was becoming weary and unfortunate. “The Nigerian custom officers were chasing smugglers in resident of Badagry and they were shooting sporadically thereby killing an innocent woman, Mrs. Patience Oni and also injured a man that has no business with the smugglers.” he added.

       The attention of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, has been drawn to a trending story in the social media concerning a purported statement credited to the media aide of the Kano State governor to the effect that the Commission got a N10 Million donation from the state government. The story is not falsehood, but a deliberate attempt to malign the efforts of the Commission in the fight against corruptio n. For the records, it is a tradition that the EFCC does not receive donations from state governors/government or any individual at that. The EFCC, as a reputable anti-graft agency is sponsored by federal government through budgetary allocation and in some cases, foreign organisations in terms of capacity building. It is true that the Commission, in collaboration with the Independent Corrupt Practices and other Related Crimes, ICPC and the Athletic Federation of Nigeria, AFN and other stakeholders is organizing the first National Anti-Corruption Mara
