Photo: NDLEA arrests mother of three who faked pregnancy with wraps of cocaine

Operatives of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) has arrested 46 year old Dorothy Onyekasi pictured above, who faked a pregnancy with 86 pellets of white powdery substances that tested positive to cocaine while trying to board an Emirate flight to Dubai at the Muritala Mohammed International Airport MMIA Lagos. 

The mother of three who hails from Enugu and trades in ladies bags and shoes, had cocaine that  weighed 1.720 kilogrammes with an estimated street value of N20.6 million.

When interrogated, Dorothy, she said 
“It is all my fault. If only I was contented with the profit from the sales of my goods, I would not have been in this problem. I am separated from my husband who left me with three children. I used to import female bags and shoes from Dubai. My involvement in drug trafficking is a mistake and I take responsibility for my action. I travelled to Dubai to buy my goods. While I was preparing to return, I met a man in Dubai who gave me the drug and promised to give me enough money to expand my business. He also told me that when I get to Nigeria, he will call his partner to collect the drug and give me my money".
NDLEA commander at the Lagos airport, Garba Ahmadu, said the wraps of cocaine would have been easily mistaken for pregnancy.
“It was discovered that the suspect kept 86 wraps of cocaine inside a waist bag which was tied to her stomach. Unfortunately, the drug was detected by NDLEA officers on her arrival from Dubai. The drug was immediately packed and weighed in her presence.”
She will be charged to court soon.

War on corruption: open the doors so we can see


One of the leading civil society groups in Nigeria, The New Nigeria Group held a press conference in solidarity to the march against corruption, access to justice and fair trials, autonomy of the different arms of government, accountability and transparency of public officials both serving and past to add boost to the actions of another strong and passionately motivated civil society group Save Nigeria Group, who launched an important anti-corruption campaign that goes to the root of efforts to retake the country from the grip of corruption in public governance.

The significance of the current campaign by the New Nigeria group and the Save Nigeria Group lies in the fact that unlike the current government effort it is neither discriminatory nor is it selective.

Relying on the Freedom of Information Act, the Groups are asking the Code of Conduct Bureau to release the asset declaration forms of some serving and past elected and appointed government officials many of whom Save Nigeria Group says it has received corruption complaints against. Prominent on the list include many from whom Nigerians would like to know their wealth and its sources. The list includes: Mallam El Rufia, Theordore Orji, Samuel Ortom, Ali Modu Sherriff, Abudulahi Adamu Adams Oshimole Rabiu Kwankwaso, Chibuike Amaechi, Babatunde Fashola, Aminu Tambuwal, Owelle Rochas Okorocha, Aliyu Wamakko, Godswill Akpabio, Kashim Shettima to name just a few. The letter making the request containing over a 100 names demonstrates the seriousness that Nigerians should attach to this effort. Instead of choosing whose asset declaration we should see, Nigerians through SNG are saying bring them all.

It is clear that a public release of this information would assist the fight against corruption in Nigeria. It will also show if indeed there is no corruption in the fight against corruption. It is only when these assets declaration forms of these persons are made public can Nigerians be a good position to believe that the current governments’ fight against corruption is not corruption itself.

The question that is to be asked is why has the government failed to do this on it’s own without the prompting of Save Nigeria Group. Who are the people that the Government is shielding, and why do they choose who and who not to harass about assets declaration and dubious persecutions through the Code of Conduct Tribunal. The right of Nigerians to know that their leaders are upright should not be subjected to politics of are you in my camp and you are not in my camp. Nigerians eagerly await the response of the Code of Conduct and the government in this just anti-corruption crusade.

Without this approach our corruption fighting institutions will be doomed as they would unwittingly become tools for settling political scores and instrumentality of oppression. SNG demand is a charge of accountability which we all must embrace. Nigeria must adopt “a no person left behind” approach in tackling corruption.  Justice in any given circumstance is when like cases are treated alike. We as Nigerians owe ourselves the duty of preserving our hard worn democracy

Chelsea 0-3 Man City (Sergio Aguero's hat trick demolishes Chelsea at home)


Chelsea without any other trophy or ambition to fight for this season, from the first minute played without any real conviction as they were humbled by Champions League chasing Man City 3-0  at Stamford Bridge.
Three goals from Argentine hitman Sergio Aguero put misery on an already miserable Premier League season for Chelsea, with the result meaning Man City have temporarily leap frogged Arsenal into third place in the EPL standings.


Aguero opened the scoring for Man City in the 33rd minute after putting a classy finish after a fast counter attacking move by Manchester city before he then scored a second goal after good football work with Belgian and former Chelsea player Kevin De Bruyne .

Towards the end Chelsea keeper Thibaut Courtois committed a horrendous foul and was red carded,  resulting in Aguero finishing up the glorious night with his third goal of the match.
Chelsea would have wished former player Kevin De Bruyne  was still in its ranks,  as he was the creator in chief and his presence on the ball was always a thorn in Chelsea’s flesh.

Aguero's goals today mean he has scored in his third Premier League game in a row.  Chelsea with nothing to play for,  after its poor form under former coach Jose Mourinho will just hope for an end to this miserable season while they wait for new coach Antonio Conte to take over in the summer.

Other results today:
Norwich City 0-3 Sunderland
Everton 1-1 Southampton
Man U 1-0 Aston Villa
Newcastle 3-0 Swansea
West Brom 0-1 Watford
