Police force new1 Suspected Armed Robber Stabs Self To Evade Prosecution In Ondo
A middle aged man suspected to be an armed robber, Ayodele Oniya has stabbed himself on the neck after a team of police detectives from the Ondo state Police command of the Nigeria Police arrested him.
The Police numbering four had reportedly stormed the residence of Oniya in Akure to search his house upon report of his alleged
involvement in a robbery operation in Akungba Akoko.
The Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) for the state Police Command, Wole Ogodo, who confirmed the incident in a statement in Akure yesterday said the suspected robber took the action to avoid being prosecuted.
However, the Police Spokesman insisted that the state Police command will charge the suspect to court after completing his medical treatment.
The PPRO said Oniya was allegedly involved in a robbery that took place at Akungba Akoko in November and escaped arrest.
He alleged that Oniya stole a laptop and some other valuable materials in a Toyota Camry car belonging to one David Oludare of Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba Akoko, which was parked at Etioro area of the town.
Ogodo explained that Oniya was taken to his Akure residence
after he had been arrested by the Police and he attempted to take his life by stabbing himself when the Police began to search his house.
The PPRO stated that “while the other properties were being recovered from his house by the Police detectives who searched his house, the suspect suddenly picked a table knife and stabbed himself on the chest in a bid to terminate his life to avoid prosecution”.
He explained that the Police would be responsible for the medical bill of the suspect and assured that the suspect who he said was recuperating would be prosecuted as soon as he finally recovered.

UPDATED          The Company of Thorin has reached Smaug’s lair; but can Bilbo and the Dwarves reclaim Erebor and the treasure? And, if so, can they hold on to it?             Having reclaimed their homeland from the Dragon Smaug, the Company has unwittingly unleashed a deadly force into the world. Enraged, Smaug rains his fiery wrath down upon the defenseless men, women and children of Lake-town.

Nigerian schoolgirls' home town in despair after president cancels visit

Relatives of more than 200 Nigerian schoolgirls who have been missing for more than a month after being kidnapped by Islamic militants have voiced anger and despair after the country's president cancelled a visit to their home town, citing security concerns. As the international effort to find and rescue the girls gathered momentum, with military and intelligence resources from the US, UK, France, Israel and Canada pouring into Nigeria , and the #bringbackourgirls social media campaign exceeded 1m tweets, there was mounting criticism of President Jonathan Goodluck's slow response to the crisis. In Chibok on Friday, the home town of the missing girls, families said they had lost faith in the government to do everything possible to rescue their daughters, sisters and nieces. In Washington, a senior US official admonished Nigeria's failure to tackle the insurgency. Many relatives had gathered at the Chibok government girls secondary school, from which ...

HOW DO YOU WANT TO BE REMEMBERED?

Genesis 32:24-32 I read recently about a man who had passed away and what they wanted the funeral parlor to do with the body. This man was a big Pittsburgh Steelers fan, and this is how the family wanted him remembered. So they told the funeral director that instead of placing his body in a coffin, they wanted the man placed on a recliner, with a television playing Pittsburgh Steelers highlights. Next to him there was to be a table with an open can of beer and a package of cigarettes. This is how his family remembered him, and this is how the family wanted the rest of his friends and loved ones to remember him. This was the lasting impression that was imprinted on the minds of people who knew him. The question I have for you today is a simple one: How do you want people to remember you? One day all of us are going to die, and how would you want people to remember you? Some of us might die soon, and some of us might not die for a while, and we have all heard that statement about lasti...
