 VIGILANTE RE-ARRESTS SUSPECTED VANDAL ALONG BENIN–ONITSHA TRANSMISSION LINE The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) has commended the Omelu Community Vigilante for its vigilance and swift response, which led to the arrest of a suspected vandal allegedly attempting to vandalise a transmission tower along the Benin–Onitsha 330kV Transmission Line. The incident occurred during a routine patrol by members of the Omelu Community Vigilante, who noticed a suspicious individual beneath one of TCN’s transmission towers allegedly attempting to loosen the tower base bracing  when he was apprehended. The suspect has been handed over to the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) for further investigation. The suspect had been apprehended by members of the same community about two months ago for a similar alleged offence.  On that occasion, he was released after pleading for leniency following medical treatment, only to be apprehended again for an alleged repeat offence.

 Bank Manager and Two Tellers in Court for R3.9 Million Embezzlement in Mpumalanga


What initially appeared to be a good year in August 2016 turned into a nightmare for clients after a bank manager and two tellers allegedly embezzled R3,950,941 through unauthorised transactions from customers’ accounts.


A year later, in 2017, the Hawks’ Nelspruit-based Serious Commercial Crime Investigation unit closed in on the trio, who were subsequently arrested for fraud, theft, and contravention of the Prevention of Organised Crime Act. They were later released on bail pending further investigations.


On Monday, 04 September 2025, one of the accused, teller Bonginkosi Praise Khoza, pleaded guilty to all charges and was found guilty. He is expected to be sentenced on 13 November 2025. Meanwhile, alleged bank manager Selby Khoza and teller Winny Mashaba have maintained their innocence. Their bail has been extended, and they are expected to appear alongside Khoza during his sentencing.
