Issa Goal: Naira Marley lands in EFCC net
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has confirmed the arrest of popular singer, Afeez Fashola, otherwise known as Naira Marley, and others in relation to alleged advance fee scam and related cybercrimes.
The acting EFCC spokesperson, Mr Tony Orilade, said, “Yes, he is with us. He’s not the only person; he had some other persons also arrested alongside (him). They were arrested in relation to advance fee fraud — Internet-related cases and all of that.”

Nyesom Wike no dey fear EFCC face
Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has restated his earlier claim that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has no power to investigate the financial transactions of the state government. Wike also said the EFCC must first vacate the Federal Government High Court judgment, which declared that the anti-graft agency should not investigate the financial transactions of the state before any investigation could take place.
“EFCC has no powers to look into our financial transactions. You cannot be giving our financial transactions to the EFCC because that is illegal,” Wike said.
“Unless the EFCC sets aside the judgment, they have no powers to look into our financial transactions. Not that we are afraid, but due process must be followed.”
LOL. Wike suppose know say EFCC are on a hot streak and dem go chase anything wey resemble PDP, or Naira Marley.
NLC turns to raging bull over Ngige
The dispute between organised labour and the Minister of Labour and Employment, Senator Chris Ngige, over the replacement of Chief Frank Kokori as Chairman, Board of Nigeria Social Insurance Trust Fund, (NSITF) deepened after leaders of Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) directed workers to attack the minister and any member of his family anywhere they were sighted.
NLC President, Ayuba Wabba, said: “We are coming prepared for him. The fundamental right of people to protest and assemble is sacrosanct. The minister tried to undermine the rights of workers. His son attacked the workers. “Anywhere and everywhere himself or members of his family are seen by workers, even at the airport where we have our workers, he should be attacked.”
Ahn ahn, haba! Eleyi gidigan o. Make NLC no make Ngige come dey carry AK o, because that thing get more than one ticket to Heaven…or Hell.
A lawyer and his JAMB questions
A Human rights lawyer, Inibehe Effiong, has sued President Muhammadu Buhari and the Attorney-General of the Federation over the President’s failure to hand over power to Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo when he decided to travel to London on a private visit two weeks ago. The case, with suit number FHC/L/CS/763/2019, was filed before a Federal High Court in Lagos.
The lawyer asked the court to determine whether Buhari’s action in proceeding on vacation to the UK from April 25, 2019 to May 5, 2019 without transmitting the written declaration envisaged in Section 145 (1) of the constitution to National Assembly is not in conflict with the provisions of Section 145 (1) of the constitution.
Furthermore, he asked the court to restrain Buhari from proceeding on vacations whether within or outside Nigeria without transmitting a written declaration to the President of the Senate of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, and the Speaker of the House of Representatives of the Federal Republic of Nigeria in compliance with section 145 (1) of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 (as amended).
LOL. I dey sure say this case go turn cold like akamu. Make Oga Effiong watch and see.
‘I hope Hazard stays’
The Belgium forward is still expected to join Real in a big money move this summer, but his Brazilian teammate Willian continues to hope otherwise.
Asked if Hazard’s decisive penalty could prove his last kick at Stamford Bridge, Willian replied: “I don’t know, I don’t think so. For me I hope he stays, but in football you never know. I think his head is here, to play for Chelsea. Then after he’s finished the season maybe he can talk about his situation”.
I want Hazard to leave. The guy don try for Chelsea. No be him fault say most of him teammates dey misfire.
