Anti-Trump protesters turn violent (Photos)

Violence has broken out at anti-Trump rallies across America overnight as tens of thousands marched against the President-elect before angry mobs attacked police, started fires and shut down highways.
The streets of downtown Oakland in California were choked with smoke Thursday as police launched tear gas and protesters lit fires, in what became by some distance the most violent of the many protests against the election of Donald Trump.


More than 6,000 protesters were seen on the streets of Oakland with an initially peaceful march down a cop-lined street turning nasty after some protesters threw bottles at officers and torched a police car. An office block was also attacked, daubed with 'f*** Trump' graffiti and then set alight.

And thousands more filled streets in Los Angeles before taking over the 110 Freeway while other protesters gathered outside City Hall, lighting fires and waving Trump heads on sticks. There were 14 arrests.

In New York, home of the President-elect, at least 30 people were arrested when cops cracked down on twin demonstrations in Columbus Circle and at Trump Tower.

As many as 7,500 demonstrators were believed to have been split between the two locations, chanting 'Black Lives Matter' and 'Donald Trump, go away, racist, sexist, anti-gay.'

Replace Oyegun With Oshiomhole As APC Chair —Onoriode

A chieftain of All Progressives Congress, APC, in Delta State, Chief Ovie Onoriode, has said that for the party to emerge stronger from internal crises, it must consider replacing its National Chairman, Chief John Odigie- Oyegun with the outgoing Edo State governor, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, noting that the latter will provide an acceptable leadership in the party.

Onoriade, in a chat with Vanguard, also said that it was wrong for Oyegun to have said that he would do anything to ensure that President Muhammadu Buhari was re-elected in 2019, describing the remark as distractive. He said: ‘’It is against the ideals of the party for the National Chairman to openly shut the door this early against other aspirants.” 

Notorious Guys Gang-R*pe Woman To Death

                             


A woman in her late 20s has been confirmed dead after she was reportedly gang-r*ped in a house that is abandoned on Farawe Street, Agbado-Oja, in the Ifo area of Ogun State.

The woman was found n*ked and unconscious in the building with blood coming out of her private parts. It was also said that her mouth was covered in blood.

The Punch gathered that some children were playing football on a pitch near the building at about 6pm last Wednesday when their ball flipped into the building.

One of them, who went to pick the ball, reportedly discovered the lady, whose identity had yet to be determined, writhing in pains and raised the alarm, which drew other residents to the scene.

A resident, who identified himself only as Soji, said the woman was immediately rushed to a hospital in the area, but died on the way.

He said, “I think the woman was gang-r*ped because there was blood coming out of her private parts and her mouth. She had become very weak and couldn’t talk when we asked her how she got into the building. She just gesticulated with her hands.

“We have not got to the Agbado division, where we wanted to obtain police report to present at a hospital when she died.”

Another eyewitness, who did not want his name in print, said the incident must have been perpetrated by suspected ritual killers.

“Her body has shrunk and she was frail. She was not from this community. I think this case is beyond ordinary r*pe; it has a ritual undertone,” he said.

The Baale of Ago-Agbado, Chief Sunday Oyeogun, said the woman’s corpse was buried around 2pm the following day as none of her relatives showed up.

He said, “It appeared the woman was r*ped and had been in the building a few days before she was found on that day. I informed the health workers at the Agbado-Oke Odo Local Council Development Area so that her corpse would not pose health hazard to residents. She had been buried.

“The family members, who own that building, have issues with one another over the sharing of rent. That was why they sent all the tenants away.”

A police source told Punch that although the case was not formally reported at the station, the police were aware.

“We learnt the woman was a destitute. The case can only be investigated if it is reported,” he said.

EFCC Goes After Fani-Kayode Over $2.1bn Laundering

                               

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission will on Thursday (today) arraign a former Minister of Aviation, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, for allegedly receiving N26m from the Office of the National Security Adviser.
Some fresh money laundering charges were last month filed against Fani-Kayode by the EFCC before the Federal High Court sitting in Abuja.


Fani-Kayode is the sole defendant in the fresh charges numbered, FHC/ABJ/CR/140/2016, before Justice John Tsoho of the Federal High Court in Abuja.

The EFCC in the fresh case filed five counts in which it accused the defendant of diverting N26m allegedly received from the ONSA while Sambo Dasuki was in office.

The anti-graft agency also accused him of handling the said N26m without going through financial institution as required under the Money Laundering Act.

The embattled former minister is already facing 17 counts of money laundering before the Lagos Division of the court, along with a former Finance Minister, Nenadi Usman; Danjuma Yusuf and a firm, Joint Trust Dimension Nig. Ltd.

They were charged with unlawful retention, unlawful use and unlawful payment of money to the tune of N4.9bn.

23 Years Old Stabbed & Murdered For Gate Crashing A Party

The victim

A sales boy, Akeem Tajudee

n, has been stabbed to death in Ilaje Otumara, in the Iponri area of Lagos State, by some hoodlums.

PUNCH Metro learnt that 23-year-old Akeem was stabbed on Monday with a knife by one Abeeb, who allegedly claimed that Akeem came to a birthday party on Saturday in the neighbouring Olokodana area, when he was not invited.

Akeem, who hailed from Ilorin, Kwara State, was killed on Monday around 9pm.

It was gathered that the hoodlums trailed him to his house and “punished him for daring to gatecrash our party.”

It was learnt that there was tension in the area as the hoodlums also injured two other youths before fleeing the community.

The matter was said to have been reported at the Iponri Police Division.

A manhunt had been launched by the police for runaway Abeeb, whose parents had also fled from their house to evade arrest.

When PUNCH Metro got to the area on Wednesday, a resident, who did not want his name in print, said the deceased’s offence was that he attended a birthday party in a gangsters’ area.

He said, “The party Akeem and his friends went for was on Saturday in Olokodana. At the party, Abeeb, one Austin and other hoodlums challenged them for attending the birthday party, but they settled it and left.

“But on Monday, the same Abeeb went to Ilaje Otumara, and started a fight with some boys. Akeem was spotted and Abeeb stabbed him with a knife in the chest, saying he gatecrashed their party on Saturday. The boy slumped and was left in a pool of blood.

“We tried to arrest Abeeb, but he stabbed two other youths before he escaped.

“When  policemen from Iponri came, Abeeb and his gang members had escaped from the scene. His parents have also relocated due to fear of arrest.”

Speaking with PUNCH Metro, Akeem’s father, Tajudeen Owonikoko, an inter-state driver, said he received the sad news on the telephone while at work.

He added that the police should fish out the killer of his son and bring him to justice.

He said, “Akeem is my only son. He was not a troublesome boy. I was at work on Monday when they called me that someone had stabbed him to death.

“My wife has been hospitalised since that Monday. I want the police to arrest the killer of Akeem. I want him to be brought to justice because he has thrown my family into mourning.”

Checkout Why MRS Manager Sentenced To Prison With Hard Labour

A Lagos Chief Magistrate’s Court sitting in Ogba, has sentenced a manager with MRS Service Station, Akoka branch, Amedu Friday, to four years imprisonment with hard labour, without an option of fine, for stealing N2,397,650.

The court, presided over by Magistrate K.A. Ogundare, convicted the station manager after he found him guilty of the two-count charge of conspiracy and stealing leveled against him by the men of State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department, SCIID, of Lagos Police Command.

According to Vanguard, the convict was first arraigned before the court in January 2014, on the said offences, which the prosecutor, Inspector Cousin Adams, said were contrary to and punishable under Sections 409 and 285 (7) of the Criminal Laws of Lagos State of Nigeria, 2011.

The prosecutor, Adams, informed the court that the convict and one Simeon Ejiro, still at large, broke the security safe of the petrol station and stole the said sum.

The convict was the only person that kept and knew the security safe key and code, and that there was no way the convict could be exonerated from the offence.

The convict denied the offence, claiming that his office was burgled by his alleged conspirator, Simeon Ejiro. 

But Magistrate Ogundare convicted and sentenced him to two years with hard labour on each count.

10 kids feared drowned, scores injured and over 200 structures burnt as Yoruba, Egun youths clash in Lekki/Ajah

 

Ten children were yesterday feared drowned and many others injured during an ethnic clash in Ajah.

Several make shift houses  and properties were also destroyed.

According to a resident, Jonathan Zosu, the children were running away when they drowned inside the lagoon at Otodogbame. He said their bodies were yet be found.

Zosu said: 

“This problem started since last weekend but things really got bad on Sunday when the police came here and arrested our monarch, Baale Dansu Hunkpe. How can anyone claim we are not Nigerians? Where are we from then?
“Our ancestors migrated to this community from Badagry and we have lived here for centuries. Over 90 percent of the people here are Nigerians. The other 10 percent are other nationals who are residents.
“It is all about land tussle. The boys were sent here to chase us out of our homes so that their senders can inherit our properties. So many people were arrested that Sunday but yet, we resisted their attempt to chase us out.
“But early morning on Wednesday, they came again. The youths, mostly cultists, came with cutlasses and other weapons. They were cutting people on sight.
“So many people were injured in that process. As they macheted people, they scattered our homes and set them ablaze. It was in the chaos that the 10 children drowned inside the lagoon.
“We have not seen their bodies yet. As I am talking with you, I am still inside the water. So many people have been rendered homeless. We called the police but instead of assisting us, the police joined the hoodlums in burning our homes.”

But the police said they were no casualties, adding that 16 people were arrested on Wednesday.

According to the police, all the leaders in the community have been arrested and charged to court.

A police source said:

 “No one died. Some people were injured. In all, about 30 persons have been arrested. The division had arrested some of them, including their leaders and charged them to court. They are in prison custody. It is a fight between the Yoruba and non-indigenes. The Yoruba are claiming the Egun are non-indigenes and so, they should vacate the community.
“They said their lands are high priced now and that they want them back but the Egun refused because they have been in the area for almost 100 years and have no place to go. So, because the place is by the water, the hoodlums hide inside the water surrounding bushes and then, come out to light matches on the shanties and disappear again.
“It is not true that police supported them. We have been arresting some of them. And we also put out the fire and policemen from RRS rescued people from being burnt to death.”

 

PUNCH Newspaper's report:

No fewer than 200 structures were burnt on Wednesday in Otodo Gbame, an Egun community in the Lekki Phase 1 area of Lagos State, during a clash between some Egun and Yoruba youths.

PUNCH Metro learnt that the crisis started on Sunday, when the Yoruba youths demanded that the residents should relocate from the area.

It was gathered that the Egun community insisted that residents would not leave their houses, tagging the youths as hoodlums and land grabbers.

The crisis came to a head on Wednesday when the Yoruba youths set fire to the structures in the area at about 8am.

The action was said to have triggered a clash between the youths of the Egun community and their Yoruba counterparts.

Two persons were said to have been injured during the clash, while the area was quickly deserted as the fire raged. Some residents reportedly salvaged their property from the fire and fled.

It was learnt that policemen from the Rapid Response Squad, the Maroko division and the Area J Command, Ajah, went to the area to restore normalcy.

A policeman on the team said an abandoned two-day-old baby was rescued from one of the burning structures.

He said, “When the structures were set ablaze, the mother and the father of the baby fled. It was the cry of the baby that drew the attention of policemen to that room. The baby was locked inside the house. The baby was rescued and reunited with her parents.”

“Nobody was killed, but about three persons were injured. The entire community was razed.”

 

A resident, who identified himself only as Hunsu, said, “The crisis started on Sunday. Some people came and said they had bought our land and we should relocate. We did not know that the hoodlums would go to this extent.

“The crisis escalated on Wednesday when they invaded the community and set fire to our property. All my belongings are gone. My wife and children are homeless.”

The state Commissioner of Police, Fatai Owoseni, went to the area around 2pm and held a peace meeting between the leaders of the two groups.

The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, SP Dolapo Badmos, said five suspects were arrested in connection with the crisis.

She said, “The command received a report that the Egun and Yoruba communities were engaged in a serious brawl over land issue. Upon receipt of the information, the command operatives from the RRS and men of the Area J Command moved in. Some shanties being occupied by the residents were set ablaze by the warring factions.

“A baby was rescued from the one of the houses. Five suspects were also arrested in connection with the fracas. The CP visited the scene and promised that everyone involved in the clash would be duly prosecuted.”
