    The London Metropolitan Police has reinstated Big Brother Naija housemate Khafi Kareem, who defied her superiors to feature on the reality show.

    The Mirror newspaper reported that Khafi, who clocks 30 today said she has been asked to return to work. She returned to the UK two weeks ago and met with her superiors to discuss her conduct.

    There were reports she had been a subject of probe by Scotland Yard.

    Theof London quoted Khafi as saying she is returning to her beat.

    Work has been really great, weve been speaking and communicating, they asked me when Id be coming back to work, she said.

    Im not sure when Im going to go back yet I want to get back as soon as possible, Im passionate about keeping London safer.

    Kareem, 29, had caused outrage among senior officers by appearing on BBN without permission.

    The Met confirmed that Kareem had asked for permission to appear on the show but was denied and that she had chosen to accept a place in the house without authority.

    Top brass at the force were to face further embarrassment when the Londoner was shown appearing to have sex on screen with fellow contestant, Ekpata Gedoni, 31.

    Recall:

    Defending her decision to accept the place on the show without a final answer from the Met, Kareem said she tried to get an answer out of her bosses, but they didnt get back to her.

    She said: I started to ask what the procedure is, what would I do, I thought I might actually get into the show.

    I wanted to do everything by the book even though I didnt know if I was in the show or not.

    I spoke to as many people as I was told to. I was told to go to my commander; I explained the situation, I told him I wanted time off three months off of work and the reason was because I might get on Big Brother.

    Addressing her controversial romp under the sheets with Gedoni, Kareem denies they slept together, but confirmed the two are still in a relationship, adding: We are still together now I met someone in there and fell in love with him.

    I hope we will be together for a very long time.

    Kareem said she attended an audition for the show in Nigeria in February in order to film content for her YouTube blog, A Cup of Khafi, which has more than 19k subscribers.

    ..Spirits distracting government

    Evil spirits have made the Government House in Awka, Anambra state their abode, their landlord Governor Willie Obiano said.

    Prof. Solo Chukwubelu, secretary to the state government, who spoke on behalf of Obiano at an Anglican Prayer rally in the capital, attested that there are evil spirits in the State House.

    He did not indicate which rooms they occupy, but pleaded with Bishop of Ogbaru, Rev. Prosper Amah, who presided over the Prayer Rally to pray for the ejection of the evil spirits permanently, to allow government focus in providing service to the people.

    In the government House, the evil spirits come and go. We urged the church to pray hard to let them leave the government for good,Chukwubelu said.

    The prayer rally with the theme The Righteous shall Flourish like Palm Tree, was held at the Dr. Alex Ekwueme Square, under the auspices of the Province of the Niger, Anglican Prayer Rally of Anambra State (APRAS) 2019.

    Rev. Amah, in his sermon had said there are evil beings in the society and also in the Government House, that come and go.

    However, the Archbishop, Province of Niger and Bishop, Dioceses of Awka, the Most Rev. Alexander Ibezim, put them in human garb and declared that the evil spirits in the Government House are actually human beings.

    He urged the governor to deal decisively with them to leave the State House.

    The government should fight evil spirits in the State house, while the church will fight those outside the Government House, he said. He urged Christians to be prayerful to be able to subdue Satan and its agents looking for who to destroy.

    Activist dismisses Rep. Jibrins demand for apology, N3bn damage
    By Emmanuel Afonne

    Human Rights activist, Mr Segun Awosanya, has dismissed the demand for an apology and N3 billion in damages from him by a member of the House of Representatives, Abdulmumin Jibrin, over some of his tweets.

    Jibrin, representing Kiru/Bebeji Federal Constituency of Kano State, had on Oct. 31 through his lawyer, Mr Wole Olanipekun, gave Awosanya popularly known as Segalink 14 days to pay him N3 billion for damages over libellous and defamatory tweets.

    He also demanded that Awosanya publish a public apology on his twitter handle for seven days to serve as atonement for the tweets published on Oct. 17.

    Jibrin said that the allegations were untrue, unfounded and meant to tarnish his image.

    Jibrins demand comes on the heels of Awosanyas call on his twitter handle for investigation into 17 local and foreign bank accounts allegedly operated by the lawmaker in spite his contrary position at the Code of Conduct Bureau (CCB).

    Olanipekun in his letter of demand had noted that Awosanyas action could be traced to his clients refusal to compare notes with him because according to him (Awosanya), the masses will believe effectively the system than from an internal whistle blower.

    Even the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) which is the body statutorily imbued with the powers to investigate and prosecute matters in the character of your allegations would still have afforded our client a fair hearing after a petition is duly presented to it.

    Your approach therefore smacks of utter bad faith; you made these allegations without recourse to their veracity or our clients reputation.

    In other words, you did not care at all about any negative repercussion generated by your intentional and deliberately mischievous allegations against our client.

    Specifically, you set out to destroy him, Olanipekun said.

    But Awosanya through his lawyer, Mr Pelumi Olajengbensi in a response letter made available to NAN, however, said his client would not be intimated to drop his call for Jibrins investigation.

    Olajengbesi wondered the image and reputation Jibrin said his client tarnished having raised an alarm of budget padding in the National Assembly in 2016 against the leadership of the House of Representatives which he could not prove.

    Our client, in the spirit of what he stands for, conversed with Mr Jibrin at the period he proclaimed to the world that he was an anti-corruption crusader and was determined to expose corruption in the National Assembly as it relates to budget padding.

    If you would recall, Mr Jibrin raised the alarm of budget padding in the National Assembly.

    He publicly alleged sometime in August 2016 that Yakubu Dogara, Speaker of the House of Representatives at that material time, and other principal Officers of the chamber were attempting to pad N30 billion projects into the national budget.

    He also alleged that the Speaker, Deputy Speaker, Chief Whip and Minority Leader had allocated billions of wasteful projects running over N20 billion to their constituencies as reported in several news platforms.

    This development was a huge revelation for the Civil Societies and Public Interest Groups, and invariably caught the attention of our client who innocently ascribed courage to Mr Jibrin, presuming that at a risk to his political position, appeared set to expose a deep rot in NASS, earning him a dignified mention and conversation from our client.

    Shockingly, our client having further probed the claims of the anti-corruption fight of Mr Jibrin discovered embarrassing information that points to the fact that he (Jibrin) had pretended to be fighting corruption while he has got questions to answer, Olajengbesi said.

    He noted that it was wrong for the lawmaker to deliberately refuse to compare notes with Awosanya at the time when Nigerians had resolved to give his acclaimed fight against corruption the much needed support.

    He therefore described the lawmakers N3 billion suit as an empty threat and urged him not to wait for the 14 days ultimatum before commencing his legal action.

    Olajengbesi added: He is hereby encouraged to expedite his legal action, and act decisively as we intend to equally match his words with facts and action.

    In view of the prevailing circumstances, we wish to make it abundantly clear that our client is undaunted, unflinching and unfazed by Mr Jibrins attempt to draw up colourless and nonexisting realities against our client through malicious intent. (NAN)

    The Benue Police Command on Sunday confirmed the assassination of Mr Patrick Kumbul, head of ICT, Radio Nigeria Harvest FM Makurdi, and one Shongo Wuester by unknown gunmen in Makurdi.

    The Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), DSP Sewuese Anene, confirmed the incident to News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Makurdi that the victims were killed on Saturday night.

    Anene said the victims who were killed along Amokachi Lane, Low Level Makurdi were already deposited at the mortuary while the Police have commenced full investigation into matter.

    The General Manager (GM) of the Radio station, Mr Akange Nyagba, told NAN that he was within the vicinity of the crime and took the body of his slain colleague to the mortuary.

    It is true, I was within the vicinity, five meters away where the incident took place. We were playing draft with friends very close to where he sat within his neighborhood but we didnt know the time he left.

    About five minutes later, we heard gunshots not more than five yards away from where we were. We rushed and discovered he was shot, we called the Police but they didnt come 30 minutes after and had no option but to take him to the mortuary.

    We understand that the gunmen who dressed like SARS were about six in number and were on motorcycles.

    They actually came for Engineer. After killing him they wanted to go so one of his neighbour wanted to know the identity of any of them but they turned back and killed him too, he said.

    Nyagba further called for full investigation into the matter and prayed God to grant his slain colleague eternal rest. (NAN)

    Traffic Congestion: FCT demolishes fence of bank, commercial buildings at Dutse-Alhaji
    By Salisu Sani-Idris

    The FCT Ministerial Task Team on Traffic Control, on Sunday demolished illegal fence erected by a bank and owners of commercial buildings at Dutse-Alhaji, following the expiration of a 72 hour ultimatum.

    News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the bulldozers pulled down parts of the perimeter fence of the bank and some commercial buildings located by the roadside on the busy Dutse-Alhaji axis connecting Bwari and other adjoining towns to the city centre.

    Also, the bulldozers dismantled several makeshift structures within a shanty on the street, just behind the commercial properties to ensure owners easily access their plots.

    Equally, cement and wood dealers who were allegedly trading illegally in the street were also cleared.

    Addressing journalists during the exercise on Sunday in Abuja, Chairman of the task team, Mr Ikharo Attah, restated the determination of the FCT administration to rid the city of traffic congestion.

    Attah directed the bank and the occupant of the commercial buildings to use their approved entrance point which was in street behind.

    He also directed property owners in the area to close their current entrance, which was a violation of the approved building plan.

    What happened here is a distortion of the approved land use. The entrance of the commercial property are contributing immensely to the traffic bottleneck on the Dutse-Alhaji to Bwari road.

    Also speaking, Vice Chairman of the task team, Mr Rasheed Ahmed, warned that land use violations in the FCT would no longer be tolerated.

    Ahmed, who is also the Chief Security Officer (CSO) to the FCT Minister, reiterated that any impediment against free flow of traffic must be tackled with urgency.

    On her part, the Development Control Department Officer for Dutse-Alhaji and Dawaki Districts, Blessing Chidozie, warned the affected property owners not to reopen the prohibited acces points. (NAN)

    She added that the full wrath of the law would be visited on anybody who violates the order. (NAN)
