The national manhunt ended when Cummin was arrested at a California cabin. One year after the incident, Thomas narrated her ordeal in a victim statement, saying: I was scared. I don’t want to tell my parents that a grown man kissed me. I don’t want to tell my friends that a grow

Image
The official of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW), Mustapha Adekunle aka Sego, who has been declared wanted in connection with the stabbing of NURTW chieftain, Musiliu Akinsanya aka MC Oluomo, has broken his silence. Recall that on Tuesday Januay 8th, the APC governorship raly in Lagos state was disrupted by thugs who attacked themselves at the rally. The Lagos state police command released a statement later that day accusing Adekunle of being the one who caused the disruption at the rally.  However, in a new interview with The Nation, Sego denied the allegation of disrupting the rally or stabbing MC Oluomo. He challeneged the police to provide a video that captured him stabbing Oluomo. “Whoever has any videotape of Sego unleashing mayhem on people should let the world see it. Whosoever has any evidence against Sego should come forward with it. That’s what I want. “Anybody can fight for his right with his mouth by speaking against what he feels i

Fascinating story of former wives of Boko Haram fighters who prefer life with the terrorists than in IDP camps

Image
In this piece by Guardian UK, the newspaper delves into the lives of Zahra and Amina - not their real names - former wives of Boko Haram fighters who find themselves disillusioned with life in IDP camps. They say life with the militants was harsh and uncertain, but they had enough to eat and were protected from sexual abuse unlike in the IDP camps where they suffer hunger and are sexually exploited by the security forces who guard them. According to Amina, most Boko Haram women regret coming to the camp because life is just so hard. Read the piece below.   Zahra and Amina seem like lucky survivors of the scourge of northeastern Nigeria, the jihadist movement known as Boko Haram. Both were wives of fighters. Zahra escaped by agreeing to detonate an explosive vest that the militants strapped to her. After walking miles to her intended target, a government checkpoint, she turned herself over to soldiers. Amina fled with her three children after her husband was killed in battle.

The real Manchester United’: De Gea says Solskjær has restored ‘happiness’

Image
David de Gea said the Premier League was now seeing “the real Manchester United” after they won 1-0 at Tottenham to extend Ole Gunnar Solskjær’s perfect start to his time as the club’s caretaker manager. De Gea was United’s hero, making 11 saves – the most he has made in a top-flight league game – with some of them taking the breath and the wind from Spurs’ sails. Solskjær has won all six of his matches since he stepped in for the sacked José Mourinho.  Paul Pogba continued his swashbuckling form – he set up the 44th-minute winner for Marcus Rashford with a beautifully weighted pass – and, although they came to rely on De Gea, there was further evidence of a return to their traditions of fast, attacking football, particularly in the first half.

David De Gea heroics deny Tottenham as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer makes Man Utd job case at Pochettino's expense

Image
David de Gea produced a goalkeeping masterclass on Sunday as Manchester United beat Tottenham 1-0 to prove their recovery under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is no flash in the pan. Marcus Rashford scored the only goal in the 44th minute of an open, exciting match at Wembley but the performance of the Spanish goalkeeper will live long in the memory. He made 11 saves – the most saves he has made in a top-flight league match without conceding a goal – leaving Spurs players holding their heads in disbelief on multiple occasions. United were eight points behind Arsenal when Solskjaer became their caretaker manager on December 19 but are now level on points with the fifth-placed Gunners as they hunt down a Champions League qualification spot. But the result is a devastating blow for Mauricio Pochettino's title-chasing Tottenham, who again came up short when the pressure was on and remain nine points adrift of Premier League leaders Liverpool. "We won the game against
