Imam arraigned in court for defrauding friend of N8.7m!

An Islamic cleric, Isiaka Adeleke, has been arraigned before an Igbosere Magistrate’s Court for allegedly defrauding his childhood friend of N8.7m.  Adeleke, 34, was said to have committed the crime at the Ojota area of Lagos.

It was learnt that the defendant tricked the complainant, Abdul Oladunjoye, into parting first with N1.7m in 2012 on the pretext of helping him to import a Lexus 300 saloon car from the United States.

Later in March, 2013, the complainant reportedly obtained a N7m loan, the money, he said was meant to revive his transport business. He was said to have sought Adeleke’s counsel and spiritual guidance.

The defendant, also known as Alfa, allegedly collected the sum from Oladunjoye in order “to pray for Allah’s blessings on the money.”

The police told the court that instead, Adeleke converted the money into personal use. He was later arrested and arraigned on four counts of fraud, stealing and conversion.

The charges read in part, “That you, Isiaka Yusuf Adeleke, with others at large sometimes in 2012 at 8, Onadejo Street, Olusosun Road, Ojota, Lagos, with intent to defraud, did obtain the sum of N1.7m to purchase one Lexus 300 saloon car from USA for Abdul Ismail Oladunjoye, a representation you knew to be false.

“That you, Isiaka Yusuf Adeleke, with others still at large with intent to defraud obtained the sum of N7m (seven million naira only) from Abdul Ismail Oladunjoye to pray for Allah’s blessings on the money to facilitate the transport business of two trucks he wanted to buy, a representation you knew to be false.”

The prosecutor, Emerho Frank, said the offences were contrary to Sections 312(1)(2), 278(2) and punishable under Sections 312(3), 285(9)(c), of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, Nigeria, 2011.

The defendant pleaded not guilty to the four counts and elected summary trial at the Magistrate’s Court. His defence counsel urged the court to admit him to bail in liberal terms.

 The magistrate, Mr. J.A Adegun, admitted him to bail in the sum of N300,000 with two sureties each in like sum.

The matter was adjourned till November 28, 2013.

Clara Chime's Cry for HELP- Could this be true?

Clara Chime, the First Lady of Enugu State, says Governor Sullivan Chime, has placed her under house arrest, and has cried out for assistance to reach human rights bodies to rescue her. 

In a letter dripping with pain and suffering, Mrs. Chime disclosed that she married Mr. Chime in October 2008 but that she has been unable to share the matrimonial bed with him for over four years. 

Describing her desperate situation, she said that even President Goodluck Jonathan and First Lady Patience Jonathan have intervened with her husband without success.

“My father is late, my Mum and few of my siblings are confused and have done all kinds of prayers they know of, 3 of my siblings prefers me dead than to see me leave the Government house.  He treats my Mum and my siblings bad,” she wrote. 

The Enugu State First Lady said she has been introduced to two psychiatrists whose names she gave as Dr. Onwukwe and Dr. Agumo, who have prescribed “all kinds of drugs that ends up keeping me acute depressed and also drives me into hallucinations.”

The doctors, she noted, are scared of her husband the Governor, to whom nobody can tell the truth.   

According to the letter, the Catholic Bishop of Enugu state (Callistus Onaga), and top priests have come to intervene, as have the President and the First Lady of the nation, without success.   

Mrs. Chime further complains that Governor Chime has ordered her to leave with her four-year old son whom she conceived before their wedding.  However, the governor, according to her, later threatened to disown the boy should she leave with him.

“He has told everyone he can reach that there is no marriage between us that I can leave if I wish to but whenever I plan to leave he instructs them to lock me in.  I have told him through Sms that I will leave my son behind and leave alone but still he instructed his securities to lock me inside the house.”

Mrs. Chime further complains she has lost touch with the real world and all that makes her beautiful because of the side effects of the drugs she is taking, stressing that she is under house arrest for committing no crime. 

Of the situation in Government House, she said, “He does not take care of me personally, the government gives me allowance to run the house and that's where I save little from to take care of my elf, my Mum and few of my siblings,” she said in the letter.  "He shut me out of his life years ago; I don't have access to his apartment. The problem is enormous; I don't know where to start to explain from.”

She said that even the security detail in the lodge has resorted to praying for her, while the few that can be bought with money are taking advantage of the situation. 

“Police and SS men have been instructed by Br Sullivan Chime to confine me in a place for a long time now against my wish [but] it is my wish to leave these premises,” she said, begging, “Please assist me to reach to the human rights and say to them to please come hastily and release me.”CULLED

Jeta & Mbong Amata have separated after almost 10 years together!

The prolific movie director and his beautiful actress wife of five years Mbong Amata, 28, have separated. They have actually been separated for about a year now but y'all are just hearing about it. And from what I gathered Jeta and Mbong didn't fight, they just decided to let each other go.



Jeta met Mbong when she was only 16 years old in Calabar in 2001 during a movie audition. He waited for her to mature and they started dating when she turned 18 two years later. In 2008, they welcomed a daughter, that same year, Jeta married Mbong. They later moved from their base in Abuja to Los Angeles so Jeta could work on his movie projects.



Here's what I heard happened between them. Mbong met Jeta when she was so young, married him and became a mother in her early twenties. She is a former beauty queen (Miss Akwa Ibom 2003) and her dream was to be an actress. Jeta didn't mind his wife being an actress but he didn't want her featuring in Nollywood movies, so he restricted her. Mbong, some of you may have noticed, only featured in Jeta's movies. And because she met Jeta so young, Mbong didn't get a chance to date other men, never partied and until they separated, never earned a living on her own. She relied on Jeta for everything. 



When they moved to the US, it became a little worse for Mbong. She became lonely and instead of being the star actress she's always dreamed of, she became a housewife, caring for Jeta and their five year old daughter. Mbong became resentful and left Jeta in 2011 and returned to Nigeria. Jeta went after her and they reconciled after Jeta promised to give her a bit more space to pursue her dreams. 



Jeta tried to live up to his promise, but as an African man, just couldn't compromise much and so last year Mbong wanted out of the marriage and Jeta let her go. Mbong and Jeta have been living separately in Los Angeles for about a year now. When I asked if there was any hope for reconciliation, my source told me 'it's only a matter of time before they file for divorce. They have moved on and the love is no longer there. Mbong is very happy now that she can do whatever she wants without a husband to stop her or tell her what she can or can't do"

I've known Jeta Amata for a long time, since the 90's in fact and so before writing this I reached out to him to get his own side of the story, and because we are friends, Jeta opened up to me.

He confirmed that they have indeed separated & partly blamed himself for the break up. He told me;

"Mbong is an amazing mother, an incredible wife...all the time we were together she would never let any other person cook my food...she was faithful and good to me and gave me the best gift in the world, our beautiful daughter. If I didn't cage her so much maybe we would still be together. I stole her youth and didn't let her live her dream so it was better to let her go and find new adventures. She's happy and so am I. Despite the fact that we are no longer together, we are still good friends. She even lives close to me here in LA. Things are great between us and I'm happy to see her happy."

Since the separation Mbong has featured in two Nollywood movies, one of them is Forgetting June produced by Emem Isong, which she came back to Nigeria to shoot. 

As for Jeta, I heard he now has a new girlfriend. Jeta is dating Australian actress Viva Bianca, best known for her role as Ilithyia in Spartacus.

Viva is starring in Jeta's new movie project - Road to Redemption, which also features Ghanaian actress,Yvonne Nelson and pop star, Akon. Jeta and Viva have been dating for many months now and were even spotted in Las Vegas recently. When I asked Jeta about his relationship with Viva, he didn't want to talk about it.

Man's hidden camera caught fight with fiancée moments before her death!

Australian Simon Gittany, 40, is accused of pushing his Canadian partner Lisa 

Harnum off the balcony to her death on July 30, 2011. 

Now that the trial is underway, a 

video of the struggle before she died 

turnedout to be among the most 

incriminating evidence against 

Gittany, the interesting thing is 

that he supplied it himself.

According to reports, Gittany was 

apparently so "possessive, 

domineering and 

abusive" that he set up a stealthy pinhole camera on the door to their 

apartment to spy on Harnum. This was just one of several hidden 

cameras reportedly placed throughout their apartment.

He made her quit her job as a hairdresser, alienated her from her friends, told 

her what to wear and even forbid her from going to the gym because he 

feared other men would check her out, prosecutor Mark Tedeschi.

Gittany thought "it was her function in life to submit to his will as the male in 

the relationship," Tedeschi said in an opening statement at the trial.

Moreso, Gittany allegedly read her emails and text messages without her 

knowing, and forced her look at the ground or his eyes while walking down the 

street for fear that she might look at another man.

"The deceased's confidence became more and more diminished," said 

Tedeschi.

An employee for the Australian Broadcasting Corp. said he saw someone 

throwing what looked like luggage from the balcony. But the court heard it 

was actually Harnum dressed in black, according to the national news agency.

Another witness reportedly saw Gittany pump his first after the suspected 

murder. 

One of his neighbors still remembers the "single bone-chilling 

scream" he heard before Harnum died.

Gittany's defense characterized Harnum as "conflicted, complicated and 

confused," adding their relationship followed a pattern: "an argument, an 

overreaction and then a reconciliation."

It was reported that Gittany was supported in court by his family and 

current girlfriend. He is currently out on bail.

Did they say "supported by current girl friend"? mmmmm, there is a saying in 

my place that "the cane a man used in driving  out his ex-wife is still at 

home waiting for the new wife". 

The "current" girlfriend better watch it then.....

Las Vegas woman fatally stabs 9-months-pregnant sister-in-law to death!

A Las Vegas woman brutally killed her pregnant sister-in-law, stabbing the

 young mom repeatedly while moaning so loudly neighbors thought they were

 hearing the sounds of kinky sex, police records allege.

Elinor Indico, 30, faces charges of murder and voluntary manslaughter in the 

bloody slaying of her brother’s wife, Ashley Indico.

A neighbor told police Ashley’s 5-year-old son came to her door with blood on 

his hands.

“My mom is bleeding,” the boy told neighbor Stephanie Vasquez,

Vasquez rushed next door but couldn’t get in. Elinor blocked the door and told 

her to “get the (expletive) out of here,” according to a police report reviewed 

by Nevada reporters.

Ashley lay dead inside the apartment. An autopsy report showed Ashley was 

stabbed at least three times in the neck, once in the bicep and once in the 

ankle.

Her unborn child — due in about a week — was also killed. Her 3-year-old 

daughter was sitting in the bathroom.

Elinor was treated at University Medical Center for two shallow stab wounds 

on her stomach.

Aristeo Indico had let Elinor, his sister, move in with his young family but 

reportedly planned to kick her out when she broke his two rules: Get a job 

and quit using drugs, the Las Vegas Sun reported.

Neighbors said the tension was building between Elinor and Ashley built as 

the move-out deadline loomed.

Elinor reportedly told detectives she was only defending herself, claiming her 

sister-in-law went “stab crazy.”

The husband told police he and his sister were trained in martial arts and his 

sister owned a Chinese fighting knife, made with blades on both ends.

Investigators found just such a knife next to Ashley’s body.

School Principal charged for murder over Indian school meal deaths!

The school principal and her husband have been charged with murder after 23 children died from eating pesticide-contaminated lunches in July at the school in eastern India, police said Tuesday.

The trial of Meena Kumari and her husband was expected to begin soon, said police officer Varun Kumar Sinha. They were arrested and could face the death penalty if convicted.

Investigating police officer Raj Kaushal said the principal's husband, opposition lawmaker Arjun Rai, stored pesticide at the school that was for use at his agricultural farm. The charge sheet filed in a court in Bihar state on Sunday said the chef cooked with it by mistake.

Both denied the charges and told police there was no deliberate act on their part.

The school's cooks have told authorities that the principal controlled the food for the government-provided free daily lunch. One of the cooks told police investigators that the cooking oil appeared different than usual, but that the principal told her to use it anyway.

The children who died were between the ages of 5 and 12.

India's midday meal plan is one of the world's biggest school nutrition programs. State governments have the freedom to decide on menus and timings of the meals, depending on local conditions and availability of food rations. It was first introduced in the 1960s in southern India, where it was seen as an incentive for poor parents to send their children to school.

Although there have been complaints about the quality of the food served and the lack of hygiene, the incident in Bihar appeared to be unprecedented for the massive food program.
