Former Catholic Knight arrested over alleged ritual cleansing exercise in Nnewi Vigilantes in Nnewi have arrested Sir James Louis Okoye, a former Catholic Knight of St John International, who reportedly renounced Christianity during the official opening of Our Lady of Assumpta Catholic Church, Nnewi in January this year over non-recognition of late Senator Ifeanyi Ubah. Okoye was arrested after he was seen on Saturday wearing a red dress with fresh palm fronds between his lips, with a bell in hand, performing what he believed was the ritual cleansing of Nnewi land on the streets of the town. Okoye gained popularity in January, during the official consecration of the Nnewi Catholic Cathedral, where he decried the non-recognition Late Senator Ifeanyi Ubah, who he believed built the cathedral to almost completion before his death. He was captured on video removing his shoes and knighthood hat as he stepped out of the cathedral, shouting, “Ifeanyi Ubah ndo.” While stepping out of the gate,...

 Former NBA star Lamar Odom expected to accept plea deal reducing Las Vegas DUI charge to reckless driving


 Former NBA star Lamar Odom is expected to resolve his DUI case in Las Vegas through a plea agreement later this month.

Odom, 46, was arrested on Jan. 17 and charged with driving under the influence, speeding and failing to maintain his lane. He pleaded not guilty to the charges in March.

Under the proposed agreement, Odom plans to enter a no-contest plea that would reduce the DUI charge to reckless driving. A no-contest plea allows a defendant to accept the court's punishment without admitting guilt.

A bench trial had been scheduled for Tuesday in Las Vegas Justice Court, but the hearing was postponed to allow for the plea to be entered later this month. Odom is not expected to appear in person.

According to the arrest report, a Nevada State Police Highway Patrol trooper stopped Odom after observing him speeding and changing lanes without using a turn signal on a Las Vegas highway. The trooper reported that Odom had bloodshot eyes and an odor of marijuana.

Odom denied consuming alcohol and told the trooper that his passenger had been smoking marijuana. The report also stated that Odom performed unsatisfactorily on field sobriety tests, allegedly failing to touch the tip of his nose during one test and losing his balance.

Odom enjoyed a 14-year NBA career, winning championships with the Los Angeles Lakers in 2009 and 2010. He also played for the Los Angeles Clippers, Miami Heat and Dallas Mavericks.

Off the court, Odom's 2013 marriage to reality television star Khloé Kardashian drew widespread public attention and was featured on Keeping Up with the Kardashians. The couple divorced months later. That same year, Odom was arrested for a DUI in Los Angeles, later pleading no contest and receiving three years of probation.

In 2015, Odom suffered a highly publicized medical emergency while staying at the Love Ranch. According to the recent arrest report, Odom told the trooper he had experienced 12 strokes and six heart attacks and claimed he had been "poisoned at the brothel in Pahrump."
