67yr old grandma found dead in SA after meeting with Nigerian man she met online

A widowed grandmother who travelled to South Africa to marry the man she loved has been found dead under suspicious circumstances in a Johannesburg guest house.

West Australian woman Jette Jacobs, 67 (pictured left), was found in February, two days after she met up with a man calling himself Jesse Orowo Omokoh, 28. (pictured right)

The pair had met on an online dating website.

Ms Jacobs had travelled to Africa to meet the Nigerian before, in a long distance relationship spanning three years and seeing the widow part with $200,000.

But this time they were to be married. She wanted to settle in Nigeria. Her children had begged her to stay in WA. Her body was discovered in her rented villa by South African police on February 9.

Mr Omokoh, who would report to being the last person to see her alive, vanished after speaking to police.

One of Ms Jacobs' six children, who did not want to be identified, told 6PR radio in Perth on Monday her mother had been to South Africa four times, initially to meet another man.

"She wasn't naive when it came to other countries, we lived in Malaysia for many years," she said. 
When the woman's brother received a phone call from a South African guest house, the siblings who had warned their mother against what they believed was a scam relationship, were in disbelief. 
"I thought it was a hoax and I wouldn't believe that my mother had actually passed so I rang the consulate," the woman said.

"A couple of hours later they called me back and gave me their apologies." 
A joint operation between WA Police and Consumer Protection, codenamed Project Sunbird, had sent Ms Jacobs a letter warning that she may be the victim of fraud, but it was too late.

By the time the letter arrived in Ms Jacobs' mailbox she had already left for her ill-fated trip. 
When her children met with detectives in South Africa, they discovered her money, jewellery, laptop and credit cards were all missing.

And then there was an empty pill bottle found near her.

"Anybody who knew my mother would know that there is no way that she would do that," her daughter told 6PR.

"This has gone on for four years and after four years there is a very strong element of trust that has been built."

One of Ms Jacobs' sons warned others not to head overseas to meet people they've met online.  "It could be a one-way ticket," he said.

Major fraud squad detective Dom Blackshaw said WA Police were now involved in the investigation and treating the death as "suspicious".

"These relationship frauds are being perpetrated by ruthless overseas criminals who are members of organised crime syndicates," he said.

"To travel to Africa to visit someone you have met on the internet is extremely dangerous and could, as in the case of Ms Jacobs, cost your life.

Enugu State Governor, Sullivan Chime leaves for abroad again

governor Chime

Enugu State Governor, Sullivan Chime has reportedly left the country again, three weeks after he returned to the country from a controversial vacation in London that lasted over four month. Sources in Enugu Government House disclosed at the weekend that Chime left the country on Thursday shortly after the decoration of his Aide De Camp (ADC), Arthur Amobi who was recently elevated by the Nigerian Police from the rank of Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) to Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP). Chime decorated his ADC, assisted by the new Commissioner of Police in the State, Mr. Tonye Ebitubituwa.

ailing governor chime

it was gathered that he left the state for a trip abroad immediately after the decoration ceremony.

Our sources disclosed that it was as a result of the governor's absence that the Secretary to the State Government, Amechi Okolo received a high powered delegation of Senate Committee investigating the Ezu River floating corpses, on Thursday.

One of the senators on the delegation told Sunday Independent that they were told the governor was yet to fully resume work while his Deputy, Sunday Onyebuchi was away from the state.

Efforts to ascertain the latest movement of the governor yielded no fruits at press time as state government officials contacted declined to make comments, even on condition of anonymity.

It could be recalled that Chime was away from the country for four months under controversial circumstances, from mid-September 2012 to first week of February 2013 when he returned to Enugu state.

During the period of his absence, the media were awash with all kinds of speculations about his ill health, causing serious anxiety in the state.

Shortly after his return to the country in early February, Chime opened up on his controversial vacation abroad, saying he stayed about four months and half in London receiving treatment for nasopharyngeal cancer, popularly known as cancer of the nose. He said his medical sojourn to London was very successful as there was no longer a trace of cancer in him.

Describing the barrage of negative media reports on his prolonged absence as "unfortunate", Chime explained that he decided to speak, may be to clear the air, in the interest of the people because he noticed that that generated a lot of interest, and also attempt to address some of the issues that he felt should be addressed in the sense that some bothered on constitutionality, and others on morality.

Chime revealed that he was diagnosed of the disease sometime between late August and early September last year when he veered off from a trip of the Governors Forum to Germany for his medicals in London.

The Enugu first citizen said when he came back to Nigeria within the two weeks, he quickly made arrangements for transition and wrote a letter to the Speaker in accordance with the constitution, to inform him of his decision to proceed on leave and of course sought his cooperation to work with the deputy governor who will Act as governor in his absence.

According to him, within the two weeks, two executive council meetings were held, with the last being held on Tuesday, the week he left, after which he informed his executive council members that he was proceeding on long vacation, because by that time, he didn't know how long it would take to treat him and for him to recover from the treatment.

Chime maintained that the information he gave members of his executive council was that he was embarking on long vacation and that they should cooperate with the Acting Governor and the next day (Wednesday), he left for Abuja where he attended the meeting of the Governors Forum that night.

He, however, said what became worrisome during his absence was the deliberate and sustained attempt to undermine the government of Enugu State whereas for his administration, his absence was an opportunity for them to test the system they have been trying to put in place over the years, knowing that there was no existing system in place when he assumed office as governor as there was none left behind by the previous administration.

He maintained that it was nobody's business what he chooses to do with his leave, stressing that he was aware of a particular governor in the North who ruled his state from overseas. He said it was his choice to go for the cancer treatment during that period as it was the only window left for him in the remaining two years he has to stay in power.

"You know we have local government election later this year and I have to be around to help organize things. Also, by next year, we start talking about the primaries and nominations for the general election in 2015. I knew that if I don't go for the treatment now, I may not have the time to do so again. This is the only window that I have," Chime said.

Pakistan bomb outside mosque kills scores

A car bomb has killed scores of people and wounded another 141 in a neighborhood dominated by Shia Muslims in the southern Pakistan city of Karachi.

The bomb exploded outside a Shia mosque as people were leaving evening prayers, said police official Azhar Iqbal. Men, women and children were among those killed and wounded, he said.

Fifty others were wounded, said a top government official, Taha Farooqi. He said some people were feared trapped in the rubble of buildings that collapsed in the bombing.

Initial reports suggest the bomb was rigged to a motorcycle, although a survey of the damage indicates there could have been additional explosives planted at the scene, the police official said. Farooqi said several buildings nearby had caught fire.

"I heard a huge blast. I saw flames," Syed Irfat Ali, a resident of the area, said, adding that people were crying and running to safety.

No one has claimed responsibility, but Sunni militants linked to al-Qaeda and the Taliban have targeted Shia in the past, claiming they are heretics.

Sunni militant groups have stepped up attacks in the past year against Shia Muslims who make up about 20 per cent of Pakistan's population of 180 million people.

Bombs aimed at busy areas

Two brazen attacks against a Shia Hazara community in southwestern city of Quetta killed nearly 200 people since Jan 10. Pakistani militant group Lashkar-e-Jhangvi claimed responsibility for the bombings, which ripped through a billiard club and a market in areas populated by Hazaras, which are mostly Muslim Shia.

Pakistan's intelligence agencies helped nurture Sunni militant groups like Lashkar-e-Jhangvi in the 1980s and 1990s to counter a perceived threat from neighbouring Iran, which is mostly Shia. Pakistan banned Lashkar-e-Jhangvi in 2001, but the group continues to attack Shia.

According to Human Rights Watch, more than 400 Shia were killed last year in targeted attacks across the country, the worst year on record for anti-Shia violence in Pakistan. The human rights group said more than 125 were killed in Baluchistan province. Most of them belonged to the Hazara community.

Human rights groups have accused the government of not doing enough to protect Shia.

After the Jan 10 bombing, the Hazara community held protests, which spread to other parts of the country. The protesters refused to bury their dead for several days while demanding a military-led crackdown against the Lashkar-e-Jhanvi group. Pakistan's president dismissed the provincial government and assigned a governor to run Baluchistan province.

No operation was launched against the militant group until another bombing in February killed 89 people.

The government then ordered a police operation and has said some members of the group have been arrested. One of the founders of the group, Malik Ishaq, was among those detained and officials said he could be questioned to determine if his group's is linked to the latest violence against Shia.

Kwara Police Commissioner shot dead in Enugu

Nigeria;

Tragedy struck in Enugu Saturday night when the Kwara State Commissioner of Police, Mr. Chinwike Asadu,  was shot dead by unknown gunmen.

His police orderly, Aloha Olaniyi and Driver, Oliver Omeh, who were with him at the time of the incident sustained serious bullet wounds  and are said to be lying critically at the National Orthopaedic Hospital, Enugu.

The incident occurred at Amorji Nike, near the densely populated Abakpa  Nike area in Enugu East local government area within the state capital at about 10 pm.

The Police Commissioner, who reportedly visited his home in Enugu at the weekend, was driving into his private residence when the assailants who  may have laid an ambush around his residence attacked him and his aides about 100 metres away from his house

CP Asadu, according to sources, had a visitor whom he escorted along with his driver and a police orderly posted to guard his residence from Abakpa Police Division, leaving behind the official escort team that came with him from Kwara State Police Command.

They were returning to the house after dropping the visitor when they suddenly noticed a bus trailing them behind as they branched into his street only for the gunmen to start firing at the vehicle from the rear.

The gunmen were said to have shot sporadically killing the CP and wounding the two policemen but before they escaped, they reportedly took away the rifle of the orderly whose body was riddled with bullets.

The orderly was shot on the chest, stomach, hands and leg while the driver was shot on his legs.
“The CP was driving into his personal residence in Amorji Nike after dropping a visitor that night.  He was with a police orderly and his driver at the time of the incident. Just about 100 metres to his house they noticed that a bus was trailing them behind and before they could know what was happening the gunmen opened fire and killed the CP instantly. His orderly and driver were also shot and they were seriously wounded.

“The gunmen ran away  in their bus before the CP’s escort team that was inside his compound noticed what was happening.  When the escort team and sympathizers rushed to the scene, they met CP Asadu and his orderlies in a pool of blood.  They were rushed to the National Orthopaedic Hospital where doctors confirmed the CP dead.  The other two policemen are now on admission at the hospital,” said the source.

The State Police Public Relations Officer, Mr. Ebere Amaraizu confirmed the incident when Vanguard contacted him yesterday, describing the attack as very unfortunate.  He said that the CP was on a private visit to his home in Enugu when the incident occurred.

According to him, the police would do everything possible to fish out the assailants as investigations into the bizarre incident have already commenced.

The new Police Commissioner in Enugu State, Mr. Tonye Ebitibituwa, was said to have directed his men to conduct serious manhunt for the gunmen within and outside the state capital in order to track them down without delay.

Meanwhile, doctors at the National Orthopeadic Hospital, Enugu are battling to save the two wounded police officers.  The orderly who was seriously battered by bullets, according to doctors, was said to be in a stable condition after the surgeries conducted on him throughout Saturday night.  The driver was also said to be in a stable condition.
