Police Arrest 40-Year Old Who Raped 11-Year Old Boy In Lagos

The police at Ikotun division have arrested a 40-year old man, Oyin Ezigbo, for his alleged sexual molestation of an 11-year old boy who he damaged his anus after forceful penetration.

The incident happened on Sunday at a mechanic workshop located at Suraju Street off Better Life Road in Abaranje area of Ikotun, Lagos where the victim parents and the suspect reside.

According to P.M.EXPRESS, Ezigbo allegedly lured the victim, who was sent to buy noodles by his parents, into a mechanic workshop where he forced him to lay faced down, used cream to rub the boy’s anus and penetrated him.

Our correspondent gathered that the Ezigbo’s forceful penetration of the victim got him injured which forced him to shout for help.

It was gathered that the boy’s chilling cries attracted the mechanic workshop owner and his workers who came to the boy’s rescue while Ezigbo fled.

Following the alleged sexual assault, the matter was reported to the Police at Ikotun division who trailed Ezigbo and arrested him.

He is currently detained at the police cell for the alleged offence and his vehicle was impounded and brought to the station by the angry residents.

When P.M.EXPRESS visited Ikotun police division, Ezigbo was still detained there and every effort to speak to him proved abortive as the police was not willing to allow our correspondent to do so.

However, the police sources said that he will soon be charged to court.

When P.M.EXPRESS visited the father of the boy, William Adekoya in his house, he narrated what happened and his frustration.

He said that he had sent the boy to go and buy the noodles which the family wanted to eat as launch that afternoon before the owner of the mechanic workshop came to tell him what happened.

He said the residents became angry and searched for the suspect to mob him and to teach him a lesson but he had fled.

The angry father said the vehicle left behind by Ezigbo was impounded and taken to Ikotun police division before the suspect later showed up and got arrested.

He said the sodomy act severely injured his son who was taken quickly to the hospital for treatment.

He said he was more afraid after some people told him that his son might have been rendered useless because they suspect Ezigbo might has used him for ritual by the forceful penetration.

South Africa’s Church bars blacks

A South Africa’s Church has barred blacks from attending service as the church on Sunday disallowed two black journalists from entering.

The Afrikaanse Protestante Kerk church in Orania, told the journalists “the church is only for whites”.

Orania is an Afrikaans-only South African town located along the banks of the Orange River, in the arid Karoo region of the Northern Cape Province.

The journalists were on an assignment and decided to attend a Sunday service before returning to Pretoria but they were intercepted by a church leader, identified as Mr Theunis Oukamp, at the door.

According to Africa Review, Oukamp said allowing black people into an all-white church would be violating the “rights of Afrikaans people”.

“I am now in a difficult situation. You know that Orania is only for white people, this is why we are here.
“You must understand I know you want to serve God and everything but I have to protect the rights of Afrikaans people. So I cannot let you in, you guys can go to any other church, but this one is only for white people,” Mr Oukamp told the journalists.

Mr Langton Ndlovu, a Christian, described the move as ‘diabolical’.

“This is demonic, in this day and age, I never thought this was real. That’s unacceptable. I wonder how they read the scripture that says “there is neither Greek nor Jew” but we’re one in Christ,” said Mr Ndlovu.

The president of the South Africa Union Council of Independent Churches, Archbishop Modiri Patrick Shole, expressed shock that there was still segregation in the body of Christ, 23 years after apartheid ended.

“We don’t discriminate in church because before God we are one – whether white or black. I find it weird that we still have discrimination in the church,” he said.

N’Assembly rules out medical test for presidential aspirants

Members of the National Assembly have ruled out the possibility of recommending compulsory medical evaluation for future presidential aspirants.

Some Nigerians had urged the federal lawmakers to seize the opportunity of the ongoing constitution review process to insist that all presidential aspirants should undergo medical tests to ascertain their health status before vying for the office.

They made the call against the backdrop of the failing health of President Muhammadu Buhari, whose second round of medical leave to the United Kingdom is 50 days old today.

The late President Umar Yar’Adua also faced similar health challenges spanning several months before he eventually passed away in 2010.

However, the legislators who spoke with SUNDAY PUNCH on Saturday, argued that such legislation, either by a clear provision in the constitution or an amendment of the Electoral Act 2010, would not guarantee the life of a presidential aspirant.

The Deputy President of the Senate, Ike Ekweremadu, who is the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Constitution Review, when contacted through his Special Adviser on Media, Mr. Uche Anichukwu, said the clause had not been considered.

He also ruled out the possibility of recommending such in the ongoing exercise.

“That is not included in what has been done so far and I don’t think such will be recommended for now for obvious reasons, especially with what is currently going on in the country,” he said.

Also, the Chairman, House of Representatives Committee on Health Services, Mr. Chike Okafor, noted that while a medical evaluation was a “brilliant idea,” it did not guarantee good health or life.

He observed that a presidential aspirant could present a fitness certificate or be certified fit by an approved body before the election, but could die the next moment.

Okafor added, “If at the point of vying for the election, he was certified fit, but he becomes ill soon after taking the oath of office, what happens? Otherwise, the idea is good.”

The man behind Igbo quit notice lives in Lagos- Falana

Human rights activist and lawyer Femi Falana (SAN) revealed yesterday that the leader of the northern youth group that issued a three months ultimatum to the Igbo to vacate the North does not live in the North, but in Lagos.

Speaking at a news conference organised by organised labour in Abuja, Falana, it is laughable that certain individuals will sit down in the comfort of their homes to issue ultimatum to others to vacate their land.He said

“In the recently concluded elections in the United Kingdom, seven Nigerians emerged as legislators. Can we look at this challenge before us and stop fanning those things that can divide us. Information is very crucial to all of us and I want to say this publicly.
“The man who is giving quit notice does not live in the North; he lives in Lagos. I am saying this, Shettima Yerima lives in Lagos. He is a Lagos man. So to live in Lagos and be giving quit notice is not the answer.”
