“Biko it was just an election between two parties,” she replied. “Not a war of the sexes. You men and your indefatigable ego. You lot are such bad winners. Can’t you win without being shallow. Look at the way you’re gloating up and down.” 
 
“Women made it a war of the sexes. Imagine a woman who hasn’t even taken care of her husband’s carnal needs vying for such an important office. No wonder poor Bill Clinton strayed when he was the president of the US of A. Countless times, you women have been told to hold your peace, stay home, support your men, but you will not hear word. Buhari said it right, you are only needed in the kitchen, bedroom and the other…” 
 
“But how does this election have anything to do with her husband’s past? She vied for an office and all you can see in her is an incompetent wife? Ifeanyi, you men can be very judgemental. How did her ambitions affect her husband’s indiscretion? ” 
 
“Keep speaking grammar. If she was a good wife, do you think her husband would have been disgraced? Things fell apart when she started nursing her big ambitions…. Ah, thank God for Trump!” he prayed. “Women will never ever talk anyhow-anyhow again. The order of nature has been restored. Man over woman. World without end. Amen” 
 
“But ifeanyi, remember Trump said he will deport all Nigerians and Kenyans if he becomes president. So Chidinma, Kosi and all their families would return home? Do you even know the consequences of this man’s win? Odiegwu o.” 
 
“Ehn. Let them come back,” he said. “What are they doing there anyway? Let them come and develop our country. This is the kind of juju our fathers of old did to itinerant children who travelled to America and forgot where they came from. Trump is the answer to that.” he laughed, slapping his thigh. “We don’t need juju anymore. He will fish them out.” 
 
She sighed. “How will I get my American visa? This man that said he was going to build a great wall between the borders of America and Mexico. He is capable of making entrance into his country a herculean task for Nigerians. America use to be land of the free.” 
 
“It is God that put Oga Trump in that office. He is going to curb all these waka-waka in our people and he will stop all these bad-bad things going on in America. How can man be marrying man? Tufia! How can they legalise abortion? That is what Obama did and wanted to pass it on to that woman. God has nipped them at the bud.” 
 
“Ifeanyi, that is why they are ahead of us. America is a free land….” 
 
“My friend, just stop it.” He shouted. “They are ahead how? In what way? No tell me, how? By practising evil in broad daylight? Let my brother Trump come and do thorough cleansing in that land. Enough is enough.” 
 
“You are just being a hypocrite. Are you not the one that told me about the various abortions women had for you? You not only sponsored them but you followed them to the quack clinics. Now this woman and her party are saying that they are going to stop the clandestine nature of all these and make abortion openly accessible to women….” 
 
“Nne, why we did those things in the dark is for the sake of dignity and self-respect and fear of God. You can’t just come out in the open and say, “I just had an abortion.” it is not done. It’s called, “chop and clean mouth”. Don’t rub it in God’s face that you are sinning. You think it doesn’t grieve my heart that I did those things? It pains me everyday. But I will never support legalising it even if it favours me.” 
 
“Anyway, let us all keep looking.” She said. ” This is a man that groped women, called them pigs, a man who said pregnancy was inconveniencing for business, yet America chose him. Let us watch and pray.” 
 
“Those women he groped, did they complain at first?” he asked. “Why did they have to wait till now to speak up? Saboteurs! They found it enjoyable then. They even called for it, enjoying the handsome billionaire’s attention. Now because Mrs Clinton promised them fame, they are crying foul. Women, you all are the same.” 
 
She shook her head at him and said, “I hope she goes for tribunal. Everyone was with her. How come she lost? I smell something fishy.” 
 
“My friend, go to the kitchen and put my bath water on fire. You think America is Nigeria?”

BlackBerry to stop production of phones

 Ontario-based BlackBerry said it had reached a deal to outsource production of its phones to an Indonesian partner, and would instead concentrate on software and services. 
 Handsets with the BlackBerry name will be produced under license by PT Tiphone Mobile Indonesia Tbk, a statement by the firms said. 
 BlackBerry, which a decade ago was among the world’s largest smartphone makers, has seen its global market share slip to less than one percent as Apple and Android devices have dominated. 
 As the market shifted, BlackBerry has sought to refocus on software, including security applications, and the latest announcement takes the company out of the handset market entirely. 
 “We are reaching an inflection point with our strategy. Our financial foundation is strong, and our pivot to software is taking hold,” said chief executive John Chen, pointing to a doubling of software revenue in the last fiscal year. 
 “The company plans to end all internal hardware development and will outsource that function to partners. This allows us to reduce capital requirements and enhance return on invested capital.” 
 The Waterloo, Ontario-based company has made several efforts in recent years to find new customer niches as its smartphone handset sales continued to stagnate in the face of competition. 
 It had hoped its first Android-operating smartphone launched last year would help restore the company to its former glory. 
 But sales were lackluster. 
 Earlier this year, BlackBerry announced it was killing off its Classic smartphone with a physical keyboard — once the workhorse of the smartphone market — as part of a modernization of its lineup. 
 But the company has continued to bleed red, posting on Wednesday a US$372 million loss in its second quarter ending August 31. 
 Revenues also fell to US$334 million, from US$490 million during the same period last year. The company did not report details on its smartphone shipments. 
 – Rebooting BlackBerry – 
 Some analysts praised the decision to get out of smartphone sales, at a time when the worldwide smartphone market has turned relatively flat. 
 “The devices business has been a distraction for both BlackBerry and investors for a number of years now,” International Data Corporation analyst John Jackson told AFP. 
 The end is “good news,” he said, noting an uptick in BlackBerry’s stock price in morning trading. 
 Shares rose more than four percent to US$8.22 in New York at 11:00 am local time (1500 GMT). This price, however, remains far below a five-year high set in October 2011 of US$23.97. 
 Originally known as Research in Motion, the company introduced its first internet-connected devices in the early 2000s, and earned a dedicated following of “CrackBerry” addicts. 
 But its luster faded with the introduction of the iPhone in 2007 and the large number of low-costs Android handsets that followed. 
 By moving out of hardware, BlackBerry can focus on its various business services such as messaging, cybersecurity and tracking connected devices. 
 Jackson said the move “should help investors, BlackBerry customers, and the company itself focus squarely on the software and services business which is fiercely competitive in its own right, but also the business that BlackBerry has been in all along.” 
 However analyst Michael Walkley at Canaccord Genuity said the new strategy has risks as well. 
 “We believe the lowered focus on hardware could have an adverse impact on its installed base of loyal BlackBerry hardware customers, potentially switching to new software and security solutions on competing smartphones over time,” he said in a research note.

The cool thing is that the solution isn’t that insanely hard to imagine either, yet it’s incredibly genius. The solution is elegant and it can be hauled around in your pocket. This incredibly genius idea comes from concept designer Tsung Chih-Hsien who presented the Mini Power portable smartphone battery chargers at the 2014 Red Dot Awards and won. 
 The Mini Power portable chargers could be described as a paper battery technology put into small USB flash drives. If you have ever bought a USB Bluetooth stick you know they are literally as small as a thumbnail. The Mini Power chargers are as small and would come in sizes of 2 hours, 4 hours and 6 hours worth of battery power. That’s what I call portable smartphone battery chargers! 
 The usefulness of these pocket-sized chargers is virtually unprecedented. Depending on the time you expect to be out, you simply pick the one that will serve you the best without it having to be lugged around in a backpack. Just put it in your pocket and be on your merry way. It’s literally as simple as that.</div> <div style="text-align: center; padding: 5px;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbvSq4nEUzc7dpHO3FWFhbAPdMlRlcNIfsynU992us8au0HAXSC05a8k6EakgCkrYipVpFxoqu6nmMlaF47_C4-OCvOpmjmyKkzOSOkOGu7FNiJ4XhQxARSr1WgrkZMmL9oTZvKbo78LA8/"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbvSq4nEUzc7dpHO3FWFhbAPdMlRlcNIfsynU992us8au0HAXSC05a8k6EakgCkrYipVpFxoqu6nmMlaF47_C4-OCvOpmjmyKkzOSOkOGu7FNiJ4XhQxARSr1WgrkZMmL9oTZvKbo78LA8/ cursor: pointer;" style="border: 1px solid; border-radius: 2px;padding: 5px; max-width: 320px " width="280" /></a></div><div class="blogaway-section">Whether these incredibly useful Mini Power portable smartphone chargers will ever be realized is hard to say, however, now when people know about them and perhaps get insanely excited about them, the chance of realization is increased immensely.</div> <div style="text-align: center; padding: 5px;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6ZvKJTk5lcPACawi0y-ObUnYBoNXCgDf0rmqQl2lpiuG8S982GgEugAWq2XWOhK1R1yKO0A-4X0vnPf-z-gYwaRkl9hNH2k_wq_Zr5UQpdA17MNS5JrcRCt3ml3mygRkArZu-Uek1P3qx/"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6ZvKJTk5lcPACawi0y-ObUnYBoNXCgDf0rmqQl2lpiuG8S982GgEugAWq2XWOhK1R1yKO0A-4X0vnPf-z-gYwaRkl9hNH2k_wq_Zr5UQpdA17MNS5JrcRCt3ml3mygRkArZu-Uek1P3qx/ cursor: pointer;" style="border: 1px solid; border-radius: 2px;padding: 5px; max-width: 320px " width="280" /></a></div><div class="blogaway-section">It’s hard to say what each of them would cost, but they would probably be way cheaper than most portable smartphone chargers on the market today.

Is it wrong for A Couple to live together before marriage?

That seems to be the thought of many people today, who haven’t been officially married according to courthouse documents. However, God does not recognize people living together as being married. 
 
The woman at Jacob’s well told Jesus, “I have no husband.” Jesus replied, “You have well said, ‘I have no husband’; for you have had five husbands, and the one whom you now have is not your husband. What you have said is quite true.” (John 4:17-18). If living together made her married, Jesus would have said, “The man you are now living with is your sixth husband.” Instead, He did not recognize them as being married even though they were living together. 
 
Hebrews 13:4 says, “Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the marriage bed be undefiled; for fornicators and adulterers God will judge.” “Fornication” is when a single person has sex without being married, while “adultery” is a married person having sex with someone who is not the spouse. If “living together” (having sex) made a person married, then there would be no sin of “fornication.” God says He will judge those who defile the marriage bed by living together. 
 
Some people have argued that living together is the best preparation for marriage. They reason that cohabiting gives them a trial period, to see if they are compatible. However, statistics show that people who live together before they get married have a much higher divorce rate than those who don’t. If someone doesn’t respect the commitment to another before marriage, why would he respect the commitment after marriage? 
 
A father once told his son that he was displeased that he was living with his girlfriend. His son said, “Dad, what difference does a marriage license make? It’s just a piece of paper.” His father went over to the filing cabinet and pulled out his will. He said, “Son, in my will I have left all my earthly possessions to you when I die.” Then the father tore up the will. His son, watching in horror, said, “Dad, what are you doing? Are you leaving me out of your will just because I’m living with my girlfriend without getting married?” His father replied, “Don’t worry, son. It’s just a piece of paper.” 
 
That marriage license is not just a “piece of paper.” The license is a legal contract, proving that you have committed yourselves together in marriage. If you have sex the day beforeyou get married, it would be forbidden by God. But if you have sex one hour after you get married, it would blessed by God. 
 
What’s the difference? What constitutes marriage in God’s eyes?

Marriage is a covenant made 
 
before God, 
to each other, 
in eyes of society 
according to the laws of the land. 
 
God says that He witnesses the covenant that a couple makes when they get married. “The Lord has been a witness between you and the wife of your youth...(who) is your companion and your wife by covenant" (Malachi 2:14). A covenant is a contract, agreed upon by two parties. It is a commitment that has a beginning point, and consequences for breaking it. 
 
What about a man and woman living together, but not having sex? 
 
This also would not be right for a couple of reasons. 
Living together opens you to temptation. Even if you aren’t having sex now, the likelihood is increased by living together. 
Other people will naturally assume that you are having sex, which damages your reputation. If you are a Christian, this destroys your witness. 
God wants to bless your life, but it must be on His terms. First, He wants you to know Him through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Second, He wants you to stop having sexual relations with someone who is not your spouse. No matter what immorality you have done in your past, God can cleanse you through the blood of Jesus. Then, as Jesus told the woman caught committing adultery, “Go and sin no more” (John 8:11).</div>

Is it wrong for A Couple to live together before marriage?

Does “living together" make you married? That seems to be the thought of many people today, who haven’t been officially married ...

Today, we are sharing an article with secret android tricks and hidden features of android phones. Different versions of android  support different set of beautiful and cool features, so try them all and see which would work on your device. 
 1) Get detailed information about phone status: 
We can get the detailed statistics related to our device  like phone information, battery information, usage statistics and WiFi information by just dialing *#*#4636#*#* 
This is a handy USSD to get the details about battery usage, DNS check, Ping, Application time, usage time and so on. 
 2) Move android apps to SD card: 
It is always better  to install android apps in SD card, but what if you have  installed apps in your phone memory. Don’t worry! Android phones provide a way by which we can move our apps to SD card. To move apps to SD card, follow these steps: 
Go to settings > Application settings > Manage application > Select the application, You will see the option “Move to SD card”. 
 3) Reboot Android in safe mode: 
As we could reboot our computers, we can also reboot Android phones in safe mode. The latest Android- Jelly Bean version provides an option to reboot your device in safe mode  if something goes wrong.To reboot your android device in safe mode, follow the below given instructions. 
*Long press the power button 
*Long press on the power off option. (This will help in hunting down the problem causing application) 
Android phone will show a confirmation message about rebooting it in safe mode. If we reboot android phone in safe mode then all the 3rd party applications will be disabled. These applications can again be enabled when we reboot our phone normally. This is a great Android utility in case when one of your 3rd party application is causing serious trouble and you want to hunt it down. 
 4) Unlock android phones by face detection: 
In the jelly bean version and KitKat, Android provides a way by which your android phone could be unlocked using face detection(Not suitable for all phones). To make this feature more secure, Jelly Bean version added another layer of protection in which Android phone can be unlocked only when the face is matched and when we blink our eyes. Blinking your eyes tells the android security system that person is live and it’s not an illegal attempt of unlocking using a still image. 
To activate this: Go to Settings > Security > Screen lock > Face unlock. 
 5) Force reboot: 
All of a sudden android devices freeze on few occasions. In case your android phone is frozen, you can reboot it instead of trying out other things and getting irritated by doing so. 
Just press Power Button+ Home Key + Volume up button simultaneously. 
 6) Quick Google Access: 
We can’t imagine our world without internet and we all would love if we could access it in a single click and in a simpler manner. Many of the android users do not know that android phones provide a way by which we can access Google search in just a single click: 
Press menu key and hold it for couple of seconds, it will launch the Google search. 
 7) Taking screen shots on android phone: 
Android phones offer a great feature by which we can take the screen shot without using any 3rd party application. However the procedure of taking screenshot varies from one android version to another version. 
Procedure for most of the devices: Simply press volume down button and power button together. 
 8) Context menu in android: 
Long press on the screen will show you additional options for customizing android phones. This context menu is somewhat similar to the right click menu of most operating systems. 
 9) Hard Reset and Factory reset your android phone: 
Android phone can be formatted in two ways: 
a) Factory reset: In factory reset, your phone is being formatted to factory level. Means all the settings will go by default and all the internal data will be deleted. To factory reset a phone dial *#*#7780#*#*. 
 b) Hard reset: To hard reset a phone dial *2767*3855#, this will delete all the data (including internal and External SD data) as well as settings of android phone. Don’t try this code for testing purpose, until you are not sure. It will not ask  for any confirmation. 
 10) Set warnings for data limits: 
Navigate to Settings menu and select the option ‘Data Usage’ to find the graph which clearly depicts the data usage in your device by all the applications.You can find the options to set warnings for data limits, set cycles for monitoring data usage and enable or disable data usage in your device. 
Mobile data usage has a lot to do with device’s performance.There are many key features which need to be monitored so as to enhance the battery life of your android device.So keep an eye and play around with options like selective synchronization of data, selective mobile networks, switching from 2G to 3G whenever required etc., These tips will help you increase the battery life on your device for sure. 
 11) See your notifications even after clearing them: 
Have you cleared all your notifications without seeing them?There is a very simple way to see them again. Go to widgets, grab the “settings shortcut” on to your home screen and select notifications there. Now you can see the Notifications shortcut on your home screen.  Now open it, and you can see all the notifications.  Path is Widgets > Settings shortcut > Notifications.</div> <div class="blogaway-signature"> <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.beanie.blogaway&referrer=utm_source%3Dutm_link_blog">Posted via Blogaway Pro</a></div>

NAMES YOU CAN CALL YOUR SPOUSE/PARTNER; 
 
1. Baby: You either love this nickname or hate it. Of course, you’re not restricted to using the word by itself. You can always add on to it if you feel the need. There are tons of pet names for your significant other that begin with ‘baby.’ There’s ‘baby doll,’ ‘baby face,’ and even ‘baby boy.’ Stick to whatever sounds best to you. 
 
2. Darling: This is a cute and simple way to address your partner. It’s similar to the name ‘dear,’ because it suggests that you really care about the other person. It’s perfect for both a serious relationship and one that’s just starting, because it’s something that you could also call your close friends. 
 
3. Honey: Honey is sweet, which is why you should use this when talking to your super sweet partner. You could also call them ‘honey bun’ when you want a different sounding nickname. Either way, they’ll love hearing your voice say it. 
 
4. Pumpkin: There are dozens of nicknames that involve food, so this is not your only option. You could also use the name ‘pudding,’ ‘muffin,’ or even ‘cookie.’ The list goes on and on. Just open up your fridge to think of some new ideal. 
 
5. Sweetie: This nickname is self-explanatory. Use it on your partner if you believe that they’re the embodiment of sweetness. They’re sure to return the favor by calling you a name that’s just as flattering. 
 
6. Boo: This one has become pretty popular. If you want something simple and sexy, this is your best choice. It sounds casual, but it also suggests that you’re together for the long haul. 
 
7. Angel: If you think that your partner is perfect in every way, then this nickname should fit them perfectly. They can do no wrong, so to you, they’re like a little angel. 
 
8. Handsome: Everybody loves to be reminded of how attractive they are. If you don’t like the word ‘handsome,’ then you can say ‘gorgeous’ or ‘sexy.’ No matter what, it’ll show your partner that you’re still swooning over their looks. 
 
9. Cutie Pie: Sometimes, it’s hard to handle the adorableness of your partner. During those times, you can break out this nickname. You might not want to use it in front of his (or her) friends and embarrass them, but you can use it all you want in private. 
 
10. Love: If your partner is the love of your life, then you might as well address them as such. You could also get more cutesy by calling them ‘lover boy,’ or ‘love muffin.’ Anything’s a possibility. 
 
11. Pookie: This one is a bit corny, but sometimes that’s exactly what you need. If you want to go down that road, you could also say, ‘snuggle bunny,’ or ‘stud muffin.’ 
 
12. Best: If you see him/her is the Best Thing in the world, the only person that can keep you smiling even when not in mood.</div>

According to a report by Saturday Sun,simply known as Evans made over N2billion from ransoms last year alone.They report his activities are so calculated and coordinated ,he has scores of teeming unemployed youths and apprentices as hit men. 
Read below 
 
 
 
For over five years, he has remained the prime target of the Police. But the more they hunthim, the more elusive he becomes or so it seems. Welcome to the world of Evans, ostensibly Nigeria’s most wanted kidnapper who raked in over N2 billion from payment of ransom for his wealthy victims last year alone. His list of victims is endless. 
One of them is Sir James Uzochukwu Uduji, the Chairman of Comet Star Manufacturing Company, who spent six weeks in captivity before met the gang’s ransom demand. 
Udoji was abducted by unknown gunmen in front of his residence at 7th Avenue, Festac Town, Lagos on September 7, 2015. He was released after six weeks in captivity. His abductors were said to have laid ambush for him at 72nd Junction along 7th Avenue at a bad portion of the road, close to his residence. The hoodlums shot the driver and drove off with Uduji to an unknown destination. 
 
Though he vehemently refused to mention the amount that was paid to his captors, he however, maintained that “their demands were met.” He gave this piece of advice to anybody who falls victim of kidnapping to cooperate with their abductors instead of risking their precious lives which cannot be bought with money. 
Uduji’s abduction went viral when the amount requested as ransom became knowledge of the media. His abductors had requested for $1million US dollars which naira value was put at N220 million as at the time he was being held. 
 
Findings revealed that the police authority is aware of the brain behind the repeated, well co-ordinated kidnapping cases in Festac and Amuwo Odofin that became common in 2015. 
 
 
His name is Evans, one of the richest men in Nigeria but at the moment, the most wanted kidnapper in the country. His criminal outreach and operational methods have so far dwarfed security agencies. In the police circle, as soon as news of high profile kidnap in Lagos is reported, they would simply scream “Evans, Oh Evans.” 
 
An indigene of Anambra State, Evans as he is known by his associates became more involved in criminality, shortly after he was released from prison in 2011. 
Some of his colleagues who were arrested by the Police, recalled the moments they shared with him while he was in Anambra prison. According to them, he was always exchanging notes with other inmates on how they were arrested while he plotted his return. 
He made contacts and as soon as he was granted bail, Evans jumped bail and joined a gang in Anambra. He grew in ranks, and made a lot of money until he was able to form his own gang. He widened his reach between Lagos and Anambra States and at the end of each operation, travel to Ghana till the Police stops searching for him. 
 
Severally, he had relocated to Ghana when Anambra, his home state became too hot for him to operate. Government and the Police in Anambra State were said to have launched a manhunt for him and one of his colleagues, known as Hutch-man, when their activities became too unbearable. Their buildings were destroyed and their relatives were ostracised in the society. 
 
While in Ghana, Evans and Hutch-man formed a new gang in Lagos with three others. Their modus operandi was to sneek into the country quietly, carry out some kidnappings and disappear into thin air. No one noticed his activities until in 2013 after a prominent transporter, Chief Vincent Obianodo, the Chief Executive Officer, CEO, of The Young Shall Grow Motors narrowly escaped death when his convoy was attacked by some gunmen in Festac Town. The police arrested some suspects who revealed the motive behind the attack. 
 
 At the moment, no one knows Evans’ whereabouts because he has plenty of cash and can easily move in and out of the country. He is so smart that none of his gang members that were arrested has information about him except that his name is Evans and they refer to him as ‘my lord’ while they are not allowed to know much about him. 
 
 
One of Evans gang members who knew little about him was Chukwuma Kingsley, 34, a native of Isele-Ukwu in Delta State. Kingsley was arrested in connection with the kidnap of two oil moguls in Lagos state. 
 
During his confession at the police station, Kingsley claimed that he knew Evans as a dangerous criminal. 
 
 “We once lived in the same building many years ago and he was a notorious drug baron. At a time, we forced our landlord to evict him from our building because we were scared he could get us into trouble. There was a time he told me that he was going to leave the country to avoid being arrested by the police. But few months later, I learnt he was arrested for truck diversion and taken to prison. 
‘’I was still doing my taxi job and making little money from it. Suddenly, I received a call from Evans. I was surprised he had my phone number and he asked if I had a car, I told him I didn’t and he asked if I could get someone I trusted who could do a job for him, I said yes. My friend Ike was in the country then and he was driving a Toyota Sienna space bus. I took him to Evans and we met at Festac Town. 
“He told us to trail a car for him and he would pay us N3 million. We agreed and he said we should wait for his call. Two weeks later, he called and said we should drive down to Trade Fair Complex, wait under the bridge and look out for a car. He gave us the registration number and colour of the car. He also gave our numbers to somebody who would call and tell us when our target would leave his shop. 
 
“We parted ways with him, because after the deal, he collected N15million and only gave us N3million. Ike got angry because that wasn’t the agreement. He told me that Evans collected N15million as ransom. He is a graduate and very smart,” Kingsley revealed. 
 
ENDLESS LIST OF VICTIMS 
 
Saturday Sun investigation revealed that Evans and his gang still have in their custody, three prominent Nigerians abducted from Amuwo Odofin and Festac area. 
Elias Unachukwu was kidnapped in November 2015. Although the family had paid $1million, he is yet to be released as his abductors are insisting on another $1million claiming that family members were rude to them during negotiation. 
 
The second person, Ojukwu Cosmas, 45, who sells Toyota parts at Aspanda trade fair market, Ojo area, was abducted on January 21, 2016 at Festac Town. 
The latest was Fidel Umeh, an auto spare parts dealer at Aspanda market who was kidnapped January 28, 2016 at Amuwo Odofin and his family is still negotiating with his abductors. 
 
While the three are still in their abductors den, Evans and his group have successfully ripped off several families in Festac town including James Udoji, a successful industrialist who reportedly parted with $1million to regain his freedom. Shortly after he was released in September, 2015, Chief Raymond Okoye was picked up and was said to have paid $1million to his captors after spending two months with them. Another victim was Uche Okoroafor, a trader at Alaba market who also parted with $1million to regain his freedom after spending three months in captivity. 
 
One of the friends of Okorofar who spoke with Saturday Sun at his residence lamented that he had to relocate from Festac to Lekki. 
 
 
 
“This is no longer a joke. The police are no longer interested in what happens in Festac Town or Amuwo Odofin. It is now reserved for the average citizen and criminals. Nobody knows who will be the next target. For now, Lekki or Ikeja is safe because that crook and his group know that houses in Lekki and Ikeja are well protected. They will not risk showing their faces here and most importantly, this is the area where important people live and I know that if such a gang dares this area, the police will do everything to arrest them. 
“Can’t you remember that Godogodo was arrested because he attacked them? In 2015 alone, not less than 20 prominent men were kidnapped in Festac Town. Properties are very cheap in Festac now because no rich man wants to buy property there again”, he said. 
Another resident who owns a four star hotel in Festac said that he had since relocated out of the country. 
 
“Three of my regular customers were picked up in front of my hotel while they were leaving. One of them spent two months in their net and had to auction his properties just to raise $1million ransom. It means that their informant normally visits the hotel. I am not safe there, so I run my business from the US”, he said. 
A police source disclosed that “in 2015 alone, it is estimated that Evans and his gang made nothing less than N2 billion from ransom payments. That is why he has so much money to work with.” 
 
 On Evans’ nefarious activities, it was gathered that as far back as 2014, the Lagos command had been on his trail after members of his gang were arrested. He was said to have fled to South Africa with his wife and children.He resurfaced again in March 2015 and this time around, concentrated his effort on Festac Town which has as its landlords, most successful businessmen from the eastern part of Nigeria. Gradually, rich men were silently picked up and Festac town gradually degenerated into an easy route for Evans and his gang. 
 
Saturday Sun learnt that the Commissioner of Police, Fatai Owoseni had since called for help to curb the activities of Evans and his notorious gang. As a result, the Inspector General of Police, Solomon Arase has deployed well-trained detectives to help find Evans and his formidable gang</div>

We’ve started by building relationships with well-respected brands such as MTN, Etisalat, Ringo and Jumia, creating employment opportunities, and supporting the networks’ objectives to advance Nigeria’s connectivity from 2G to 3G.”

See what your friends are writing” 
 
“Who?” “Your fellow columnists. See how they are attacking the Minister of Interior, General Abdulrahman Dambazau, just because an orderly helped to shine his shoes in public.” 
 
 
“I really don’t see what the hoopla is all about” 
 
“Me too” 
 
“I think many of our people just like to talk about shoes. For five years, Nigerians kept talking about how former President Goodluck Jonathan had no shoes as a child.” 
 
“But he was the one that started it. Last week or so, the former President was again talking about shoes. In America.” 
 
“I think people love shoes. That is why they won’t also allow Dambazau to rest over his shoes.” 
 
“Read what your friend has written here. He says the orderly was subjecting himself to indignity by bending down to shine his oga’s shoes at a public ceremony.” 
 
“He doesn’t understand. Many of the commentators are probably thinking of their own type of shoes. When you see some shoes, you’d certainly not want a speck of dust anywhere close by. There are shoes and there are shoes. All these people making noise, have they seen some shoes?” 
 
“Someone once showed me his pair of shoes which he said he bought for 2, 000 pounds. I swear I’d gladly clean such shoes even if it is at a solemn funeral.” 
 
“Do you have any idea the type of shoes the Minister was wearing?” 
 
“No. But what does it matter? My point really is that people should stop blaming the Minister. Look when you are in public office, things like that happen. It is the duty of your aides to make sure you look good all the time. “ 
 
“I agree. A Minister of the Federal Republic must always be impeccably dressed. If you ask me to choose between Minister Dambazau and that one that wears beret and dresses as if he is going for a Man O’ War session, I’ll choose Dambazau any day.” 
 
“My own point is that nobody should blame the Interior Minister. It is not as if he summoned the orderly and asked him to start shining his shoes in public. These things happen. We should blame the aide. Aides in government corridors are too sycophantic, sometimes, they don’t fit the occasion to the act.” 
 
“I have seen quite a few of such aides. I once went with someone to visit a state Governor. The Governor was the only one sitting on a sofa. All his aides including commissioners sat on the floor. I didn’t know what to do, whether to stand or join the aides on the floor. “ 
 
“Those aides often respond to their oga’s body language though. And what did you do?” 
 
“Me? I sat down on the sofa oh. I think it is the aides who are guilty. It is a peculiar kind of ailment: it is called eye service.” 
 
“I know. We don’t really have a civil service.” 
 
“We have an eye service. Anything that will make the boss happy, even if the same aides will later turn around and bad mouth the same boss.” 
 
 “You know in some government houses, aides behave like robots. When their boss stands up, they also stand. When the boss sits down, they too sit down. They eat what eats, and when they see the big man’s wife, they start grinning from ear to ear.” 
 
“I have seen otherwise educated aides carrying bags for their Oga’s wife.” 
 
“And you know they don’t need to be forced to do all that. People just do it. It is a way of showing loyalty” 
 
“But I think your friend’s point in this article is that the big men should discourage such behaviour.” 
 
“Have you not seen where people kneel down to talk to their boss? Even when they are asked to stand up or sit down, you’d see adults saying, let me remain on the ground sir. I am fine sir, Your Excellency. I am afraid one of these days, you’d see an aide prostrating publicly to make their boss feel good. Don’t blame the boss, blame the aide.” 
 
“I still believe that some big men actually enjoy it. An old friend lost his job as a commissioner because he had developed the habit of arguing with the Governor at Council meetings. He refused to behave like other commissioners, the oga-is-always-right crowd.” 
 
“Any boss that is always right cannot get it right.” 
 
“You know, the guy told me that at a particular Council meeting, one of his colleagues stood up and told the Governor, sir in fact, I have been meaning to tell you, I don’t know how you do it, you are the wisest man I have ever seen, the best strategist in the world, the best thing to have ever happened to our state. Then, he asked other council members to give the Governor three gbosas. Our friend said he was shocked.” 
 
“So, did he expect the Governor to sack the praise-singer?” 
 
 “That particular commissioner always got anything he wanted. Someone like that would willingly clean the Governor’s shoes, he’d in fact gladly do it. ” 
 
“I imagine that it is the same in the corporate world. Some company executives behave like houseboys.” 
“It is a Nigerian thing, then. I am sure if General Dambazau had asked that guy not to shine his shoes in public, he would have been very upset. He would think he has fallen out of favour. He was happy serving the boss, the same way policemen are happy to carry bags for other people’s wives.’ 
 
“It’s human nature. It’s this whole thing about the survival of the fittest.” 
 
“Like surviving Lassa fever?” 
 
“My brother! That’s frightening. I understand up to about 63 people have died already in 17 states, and that more may die. 
 
“The Minister of Health, Professor Isaac Adewole says the Nigerian Government will write the obituary of Lassa fever by April.” 
 
“I hope so. If it is possible to do it before April, that will help, because the way Lassa fever is writing the obituary of so many people, it may turn out to be worse than Ebola virus.” 
 
“I think the Minister and his team, and the various state governments are doing a good job of alerting the public to the dangers of Lassa fever. Even government agencies like the NYSC have deployed public enlightenment teams to market places.” 
 
“One man ran away from a hospital while being treated for Lassa fever. May be government should begin to quarantine people. These days, when I see anybody looking sick, even if it is ordinary fever, I start by imagining the worst and I keep my distance.” 
 
“I hear some people eat house rats.” 
 
“What?” 
 
“Then, public enlightenment should become even more vigorous. Eat rat? How can anybody eat Okon Calabar?” 
 
“Who is that?” 
 
“Okon Calabar. That’s what we called rats when I was in school. You know some of these big rats that don’t run away from human beings. When they see you, they actually act like they want to jump on you. I believe those are the real multi mammate rats.” 
 
“I have asked somebody to help me buy two cats.” 
 
“You have rats in your house? What kind of house is that? Where do you live?” 
 
“I live in Babana Island.” 
 
“Babana Island. Not Banana Island? Oh, Babana. That island that is around Abule Egba, close to one refuse dump” 
 
“You no well.” 
 
“When your house is dirty, and nothing is well kept, you’d breed rats, of course.” 
 
“I don’t live in dirty surroundings. I am just taking precautions. And take my advice, also try and buy cats. Let’s kill all the rats in Nigeria.” 
 
“I like that. Let’s kill the rats and save lives. But you don’t need cats, get a fumigator to drive all dangerous things away from your house: rats, cockroaches, mosquitoes.” 
 
“The cost of fumigation has gone up. I hear fumigators are making serious gains now.” 
 
“Very soon, the cost of cats will also rise. “ 
 
“Cats?” 
 
“Yes. Don’t you know that everything is business in this country?” 
 
“There are too many human rats out there ready to take advantage.” 
 
“What do you mean human rats?” 
 
“You don’t know some human beings are like rats, causing fever? 
 
“You are speaking in tongues. Okay, name one human rat that you know.” 
 
“I am looking at one right now.” 
 
“Me?” 
 
“Yes” 
 
“No. I am not. You should be talking to those militants in the Niger Delta who are again sabotaging the country by blowing up oil installations, and giving the Federal Government conditions.” 
 
“The Port Harcourt, Warri, and Kaduna refineries have been shut down due to pipeline vandalism. At this rate, we ‘d soon buy fuel at N200 per litre.” 
 
“God knows we can’t afford another round of Niger Delta militancy. We have Boko Haram. We have the Biafra “secessionists.” And now Niger Delta militants are back to the creeks and trying to reverse the gains of the amnesty programme. In the end, we will all suffer for it.” 
 
“Don’ t worry, those boys will be dealt with.” 
 
“At what cost? It is better to nip the crisis in the bud.” 
 
“How? By begging the militants? The Federal Government has made it clear that it will not succumb to blackmail.” 
 
“Who is talking about blackmail?” 
 
“Wahala today. Wahala tomorrow. This Nigeria sef.” 
 
“Yes oh. They are even saying we will now pay stamp duty on all monies paid into our bank accounts once the amount is over N1, 000. When you add that to other bank charges, how much is left?” 
 
“My friend, it is just N50.” 
 
“It is not just N50. Why must I dash government money? Is government now begging for alms? Is it that bad? If I want to give anybody alms, it should be my decision.” 
 
“There is a law called Stamp Duties Act. They want to enforce the law.” 
 
“So, a bank is now a branch of the Post Office? If anybody posts money into my account, government will force me to buy stamp? And yet we want a cashless society? Very soon, people will stop doing electronic transfers.” 
 
“Don’t be stingy. Be a good citizen.” 
 
“N50 on every transaction. For people who run active accounts, that could amount to very heavy tax by the end of a month. You know what? I think they should just re-name the banks and call them post offices, since they are now selling stamps.” 
 
“As in?” 
 
“As in Zenith Post Office” 
 
“Diamond Post Office” 
 
“Union Post Office”. 
 
“Na wa oh.”</div>
