It cost me a lot of time, money, my health and sometimes integrity but I ONLY investigate the truth. #defendmediafreedom Dbanj has been vindicated by @policeng of RAPING Seyitan. I will now detail findings of their investigation. @PoliceNG cleared @iamdbanj 100% after fully carrying out an investigation and in parallel Ms Seyitan who pleaded and WITHDREW her petition. It is important to pay close attention to real rape accusations vs fake accusations so as to protect the innocent rape victims #kemitalks Here are legal documents I obtained in the case and the recommendation of @policeng I implore the Nigerian mainstream media to get more involved in investigative journalism especially RAPES. It is important to protect the innocently accused. #kemitalks" See screenshots as obtained from Kemi Olunloyo's page below; |
US court shares reason why Hushpuppi was denied bail Posted: 26 Jul 2020 12:00 AM PDT A United States Court sitting in Illinois, Chicago has shared its reason for denying Ramon Abbas a.k.a Hushpuppi bail.Recall that the Instagram celebrity who was arrested last month in Dubai for alleged wire fraud and extradited to the U.S on July 3, was accused of being part of a network that made "hundreds of millions of dollars" from business email compromise frauds and other scams.The US court has now revealed it denied Hushpuppi bail and the opportunity to stay with his girlfriend's Uncle pending the conclusion of his trial.Based on the recommendations of the Pretrial services which provides the court quality information about defendants, it was stated that Hushpuppi presents a risk of non appearance and should be removed to the charging district in California in custody. Premium Times reported that other factors include the fact that Mr Abbas is subject to lengthy period of incarceration if convicted, lacks significant community or family ties to the district, lacks significant family or other ties outside the United States, lacks legal status in the country and will be subjected to removal or deportation for serving any period of incarceration. If the allegations turns out true, it was further stated that Huspuppi who has ties with many foreign countries has sufficient assets to fund flight to anywhere in the world. The statement partly read; "Abbas reportedly rents an apartment in Dubai for $10.000 a month and drives a Bentley. He is alleged to have committed financial crimes that netted tens of millions of dollars or more. "For these reasons and those stated on the record, Mr Abbas shall be removed to the charging district in the custody of the US Marshal." |
Chicago lawyer, Michael Nash reveals why Woodberry’s case was dismissed Posted: 25 Jul 2020 11:30 PM PDT Michael Nash, the Chicago lawyer representing Woodberry, has said that the dismissal of the fraud allegation against his client makes no difference.Woodberry was arrested alongside Hushpuppi and extradited to the US where he's being tried for fraud."The government dismissed the case because it charged him with a slightly different crime. In the long run, no difference", he said.Assistant U.S. Attorney, Joseph D. Fitzpatrick in reaction to the news disclosed that Woodperry still has an eight-count charge of wire fraud against him.He said, "We dismissed the complaint, but the indictment (charging 8 counts of wire fraud) is still active. We cannot comment on the dismissal of the complaint, but I wanted to make sure you knew the indictment is still active. "Mr Ponle has now been charged by indictment, instead of being charged by the complaint by FBI". |
BBNaija2020: Viral video of Laycon performing his song “Awa Fierce” in Big Brother’s house Posted: 25 Jul 2020 11:00 PM PDT All lines seem to be fallen in the right places for Laycon the budding up and coming artiste who was initially labelled as one of the under dogs in the big brother 2020 house.Biggie played his song Awa Fierce featuring Reminisce and Chinko Ekun in the house and Laycon also got a chance to perform it live to the other housemates. If the love shown him by the other contestants for the prize is to go by, the young man has a very good chance of getting into the top 5 or probably winning the game.The house was a frenzy of sort as all housemates bounced, sang and hailed Laycon during the song performance. This is one game that his fierceness will definitely pay off. That is if it is not just words of mouth though. |
NAF Explains Why Autopsy Was Not Conducted On Arotile Posted: 25 Jul 2020 10:30 PM PDT The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) said they did not conduct an autopsy following the death of Flying Officer, Tolupe Arotile because the family were satisfied with the agency's investigations.Tolulope, 25, who passed away on the 14th of July, 2020 following head injuries from an accident at the NAF Base in Kaduna, was buried on Thursday at the National Cemetery in Abuja.During his appearance on Channels Television's Sunrise Daily, the Spokesperson of the Nigerian Air Force, Air Commodore Ibikunle Daramola said the family of the deceased were satisfied with investigations carried out by NAF and did not request for any autopsy.According to the NAF spokesperson, the cause of death for Nigeria's first female combat helicopter pilot was already known and the father of the late officer equally wanted a closure of the matter."The circumstances surrounding it were read and could not have been scripted any other way other than what happened because it was freakish in nature. But the facts are the facts" the NAF spokesperson said. "That (autopsy) would be initiated by the family but based on discussions with them and the fact that there were witnesses there, and the time that she was taken to the Nigerian Air Force Hospital in Kaduna, there were no doubts as to the cause of death which was head injuries as a result of trauma caused by the vehicle hitting her from the rear." He explained that "the father, Engineer Akintunde Arotile said he wanted closure on this matter and that he was comfortable with the Nigerian Air Force investigations which of course is also being transferred to the police because the police were involved from the outset. "Autopsy was not done because it was not requested; the cause of death was already known based on the investigation and how she was taken to the hospital and the confirmation was made. There were no doubt in that regards and there was no request from the family for that specifically. " |
