Freed Inmate Refuses To Leave Prison In Owerri

It was a pathetic drama in the Owerri High Court premises Friday morning when an inmate who is believed to have awaited trial in prison for upwards of seven years was acquitted of any wrong doing and discharged by an Owerri
Magistrate Court. According to CrimeFacts, instead of the usual jubilation that follow any ruling of
‘discharged and acquitted’, the inmate, Sylvester Obata (not real names); wearing a long face, headed straight for the Prison van that brought them to court, only to be intercepted by a prison guard who reminded him he was free to
go home. To the chagrin of eyewitnesses, Obata said he was going nowhere demanding to be allowed entry into the Prison Van
back to prison. The prison guard who mistook Obata’s statement for a weird joke was jolted when he tried to push him away from
the prison van and was defiantly
resisted by the freed inmate.
What seemed like a mild drama turned nearly absurd when the calm of the court premises was shattered by Obata’s shouts and pleas to be allowed to go back to prison and he thrashed about and struggled with several prison
officials who wanted him out of the
court and on his way home.
According to eyewitnesses, it took the effort of over six prison officials, court workers and policemen to get the freed inmate out of the court premises. Obata who refused to budge even in the face of threats of brutality by security men, had to be dragged on the floor while he raised hell in the court premises. Outside the prison, Obata sustained his raving, telling whoever cared to listen
why he should be allowed to remain in jail. According to him, setting him free was no big deal, but his plight outside prison is what the court should have also
considered. “I have no place to go or anybody to go to. I have no job or business.I want to go back to prison where I can at least be sure to eat something everyday.” The evidently apprehensive former
prison inmate, demanded to see the Chief Judge of the state to plead his case himself and explain to him why it was better to keep him in prison than
outside prison.

SEE PHOTO: Meet The First Ever Miss Nigeria

Miss Nigeria started as a photo contest in 1957. Contestants posted
photographs of themselves to the
Daily Times headquarters in Lagos
where finalists were shortlisted;
those successful were invited to
compete in the live final which at the time did not include a swimsuit
competition at the Lagos Island Club. UAC employee Grace Tinuke Oyelude won the maiden edition of Miss Nigeria, who later used part of her £200 prize money to travel to England where she studied Nursing. Contrary to popular belief, Julie Coker was not the first Miss Nigeria – she was Miss Western Nigeria but used the ‘Miss Nigeria’ title during official engagements abroad.

SHOCKING NEWS: Man Kills 85Year Old Man Observing Ramadan Night Prayer

Residents of Abiola Central Community, Moniya, Akinyele Local Government area of Oyo State were thrown into mourning as a young man, Mutiu Tiamiyu, beat to death an 85-year-old
man, Nasir Adigun, on Ramadan eve. The octogenarian , who was physically impaired, was said to be observing Tarawhi (Ramadan night prayer) on Tuesday when Tiamiyu pounced on him. It was learnt that the old man was persuaded by his family members to observe the prayer at home, while other members of the household went to the mosque. The attention of residents and worshippers in a nearby mosque were drawn to the old man’s plight by an unnamed teenager, who raised the alarm.
When the residents arrived at Adigun’s house, the old man was found in a pool of blood.
He was rushed to a nearby hospital and was later referred to the University College Hospital, Ibadan. He died before getting to the hospital. An eyewitness, who preferred anonymity, said “Tiamiyu had eaten the old man’s food earlier that night. He later attacked him in his living room.”
A family member said, “Pa Adigun was at home while we all went to the mosque for Tarawhi prayer. He had problem with his sight . We didn’t want to disturb him at night so he stayed at home while others went to mosque for prayer. “All of a sudden, we heard a boy shouting Mutiu’s name. At first we shouted the boy down but we later rushed to the scene because he persisted.
“On getting there, baba was found lying helplessly on the floor in a pool of blood. The young boy said that he saw Tiamiyu hitting baba’s head with a club. He (the boy) lives next door; he refused to go to mosque with his parents. He
told us that he saw Tiamiyu beating the old man when he peeped through the
window.” Tiamiyu, who had earlier escaped was arrested by the victim’s family around 7.20am on Wednesday while trying to escape with his dog. He was handed
over to the police at the Moniya
Division, Ibadan. Some residents of the area described Tiamiyu as a thorn in their flesh. Our correspondent gathered that some
neighbours had complained that he was victimising people in the area. On interrogation before being handed over to the police, Tiamiyu said, “I was hungry and I asked baba to give me money but he refused.” Attempts to get the reaction of the police to the incident failed as the Police
Public Relations Officer, Oyo State
Command, Mrs. Bisi Ilobanefor, could not be reached. Calls made to her telephone number rang out.

25 Years Old Woman In Court For Beating Up Two Female Police Officers

A 25-year-old woman Oluwatemitope Adetona, has been arraigned before the Ebute Meta Magistrate’s Court for allegedly beating up a corporal and a police inspector. She was also alleged to have obstructed them in the performance of their duty as enforcement officers. The two officers, Inspector Virginia
Ikejiaku and Corporal Helen Okolie of Denton Police Station, were said to have been assaulted by Adetona after they arrested a nine-year-old child who was selling a local doughnut , popularly called puf-puf on the road. The female officers were said to be
nforcing the Lagos State Child Rights Law when the defendant came after them, tore their uniforms and necklace , while residents of Coates Street, who
witnessed the incident hailed them.
The two counts read in part, “That you, Oluwatemitope Adetona, and others at large on the 8th day of July, 2013 at 10.30am along Coates Street, Ebute meta in the Lagos Magisterial District did unlawfully assault one AP/NO 135424 woman inspector Virginia Ikejiaku ‘f’ and F/No 025013 woman corporal Helen Okolie, ‘f’ attached to Denton Police Station, Ebute Meta by giving them fist blows all over their bodies which caused them bodily harm,
while performing their lawful duties and thereby committed an offence punishable under Section 172 (a) of the Criminal Laws of Lagos State Nigeria, 2011.” Adetona pleaded not guilty to the
charges. The defence counsel pleaded that she be granted bail in the most liberal terms as she did not even know the child in
question. The magistrate, Mrs. Aje Afunwa, admitted the defendant to bail in the sum of N20,000 with a surety in like sum. The matter was thereafter adjourned for
trial. "Omo na wa ooo !"

Check Out Olamide On The Cover Of Mystreetz Magazine's New Issue

Hip hop star, Olamide looking dapper on suit on the cover of MyStreetz magazine's latest issue.
Sesan Adeniji, the publisher of
MyStreetz magazine said about the new issue; "With the way Nigerian music industry has continued to evolve, sometimes,one need to ask the question what if? What if, Fela hadn't let go of his tussle with Orlando Julius for the ownership of
Highlife Jazz to discover Afro-beat? What if Sir Shina Peters had been content with the music genre he tussled for with Segun Adewale and he hadn't pioneered Afro Juju? What if prince Nico Mbarga hadn't sang "sweet mother" and Tu face never recorded "African
Queen"? The answers are not far fetch. Nigerian music wouldn't have been widely recognized and respected as it is today without the record set by these brave hearts who took the road less traveled and refused to join the bandwagons. We live in the industry where copycat syndrome are the order of the day and the few who dare to do something
different are hardly encouraged from the onset except when the beat from the odds to breakthrough. We at the MyStreetz magazine have always stood
out to report what is different and just like we once projected with 'Olamide's eyes on the rap throne' which was the first time he graced the cover of MyStreetz magazine. Musically his stock has risen ever since, so much that he became the first artist to grace the magazine's cover for the second time.
