Aluu 4: Gone but not forgotten

It's exactly three months four UNIPORT students -Tekena, Ugonna, Chiadika, and Ilyod were brutally murdered in the Aluu community. 16 people have so far been arrested for their murder. The suspects appeared in court on Thursday December 20th but the trial was stalled due to the failure of prison officials to produce them in court. The case was then adjourned till February 28, 2013. Hope this time the prison officials won't forget to bring them to court.

These young men had their whole lives ahead of them and didn't deserve to die the way they did. Hope they get justice. We are watching!

Their traditional wedding will hold in Nigeria, maybe Abuja and the white wedding might hold outside the country. I heard 'exotic Caribbean Island', maybe Barbados. Their wedding IVs will be going out soon!

Like I said, people close to the couple are refusing to say much...but it's me and them in this Lagos! We shall see. Lol. Will bring you guys more authentic details later!

N60 billion to be spent on cellphones for farmers not true - Minister of Agriculture

Press statement from the Minister of Agriculture, Dr Akinwumi Adesina
My attention has been drawn to the issue of 60 Billion Naira to be spent on phones for farmers, reported in some media sites and papers. The information is absolutely incorrect. My Permanent Secretary was totally misquoted out of context. There is no 60 Billion Naira for phones anywhere. As a responsible Minister, who takes public accountability and probity very seriously, there is absolutely no way in the world that I will even contemplate or approve such an expenditure. All our focus as Government is on creating jobs in Nigeria, not exporting jobs elsewhere.

Nigerian student, Kevin Lakoju allegedly commits suicide in India

According to The Times of India, a 28-year-old Nigerian student allegedly committed suicide after jumping off the second floor of his rented accommodation in Sector 41. Police said preliminary probe suggests that the deceased, Kelvin Lakoju, aka 'Biggie' was in depression.

Kelvin had been living in Noida since 2009 and was pursuing a photography course from an institute in Film City. Cops said he jumped off around 11pm on Wednesday January 2nd.
"We have questioned some people and came to know that he was upset for some reasons," said deputy SP, S Chinappa.
"His friends said Kelvin was good at studies. Some personal problem could be the reason for committing suicide," said a senior police officer.
Some sources do however allege that Kevin was pushed, others say he was killed then pushed. The Nigerian Embassy and the deceased's family have been informed about the incident. It is hoped that Nigerian authorities in India will do some investigation into the alleged suicide, and hopefully corroborate the suicide story, if indeed it was a suicide.
