Armed Robbers Attacked Church, Beat Pastors, Guard, and Take Away Goods
Eight suspected armed robbers invaded the Mission House of the First Baptist Church, Surulere in Ilorin, the Kwara State capital on Thursday.
Rev. Solomon Gbenjo said two of the robbers entered his apartment and tied him with a rope while one of the robbers hit him with a belt.
He added that they later ransacked his apartment and collected money and other valuables.
According to the priest, before they entered his apartment, the robbers overpowered one of the night guards, attacked him with machete and inflicted severe injuries on his head.
Sources told journalists that the robbers operated for about three hours without any intervention from security agencies.
Gbenjo, who is over 60 years old said the robbers also invaded the apartments of two other pastors of the church, Rev. Tunde Ajayi and Rev. Biodun Olatide.
The priest said the robbers took from his apartment one HP laptop computer, one iPad, four handsets, N140,000 and other valuables.
He said, “They got to our apartment around 2am. They forced the door open. My daughter’s room was the first place they visited, my laptop was there with the receipt and the bag.
“Somebody was to come and collect N20,000 from her but unfortunately could not come. That was the first money they grabbed. They also took some of her wristwatches.
“When they had finished robbing her, they asked her to lead them to our bedroom. They asked us to lie face down and ransacked the house. As soon as they came in, they said they had killed one of the gate men. They threatened that if we did not cooperate, they would kill us too.
“They hit me with a belt. That was how the whole thing started. It caught us unaware.”
He explained that they beat up Ajayi’s wife and later stole N102,000, laptop, a mobile phone, bag and a flash drive from the Ajayis’ apartment.
It was learnt that the robbers took from Olatide’s apartment, a mobile phone two laptops, N133,000 and an undisclosed amount of loan he got from a Cooperative Society.
Some robbers had on the same day also invaded a Winners’ Chapel branch at Gaa Imam.
It was learnt that robbers in the past had also stormed some nearby churches at Oko-Erin belonging to Rev. Rahman Popoola, Christ Apostolic Church, Alabukun belonging to Prophet Adiro and seven other churches around Eyenkorin near Ilorin.
The Police Public Relations Officer, Kwara State Command, Mr. Ajayi Okasanmi, confirmed the attack. He stated that the police had commenced investigation into the robbery.

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg Visits His Old Room In Harvard (See Photo)
Mark Zuckerberg dropped out of Harvard during his sophomore year to focus on Facebook but recently went back to receive an honorary degree awarded him by the prestigious institution and also to give the commencement speech.
Once there he went on a tour of his old dorm room where Facebook was conceived and took his followers with him via Facebook live.
The billionaire can be seen in the video standing in front of his room before he went inside. He showed off the interior of the room saying:
"The room looks a little bit different from what it looked like when I was here but it's actually mostly the same."
He then showed off the desk where he sat when he programmed Facebook.
"This is where I programmed Facebook,” he recalled as he gestured toward a desk. “It took about two weeks."
At 33, Zuckerberg is the youngest person to ever give the Harvard commencement speech.
Man Got Released and Work Free After 24 Years of Being In Prison Over A Crime He Didn't Commit (See Photos)
A Philadelphia man walked free this week after spending 24 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit.
Shaun Thomas' conviction was overturned Tuesday and he walked out of prison that same day.
The 43-year-old was just 16 when he was accused of participating in the murder of a businessman who was shot in 1990.
Thanks in part to the dogged efforts of the Pennsylvania Innocence Project, the Conviction Review Unit from the Philadelphia District Attorney’s Office discovered a believed-to-be-lost file at the Philadelphia Police Department.
In that file were 36 pages of witness statements taken days after the murder for which Thomas would be arrested years later.
Those statements point to viable alternative perpetrators, according to a release from the Pennsylvania Innocence Project.
They also backed up Thomas' insistence all along he was at another court hearing when the crime was committed. However, alibi-proving logs disappeared from the juvenile correctional center and a jury didn't buy testimony from Thomas' mother and sister claiming they were with him at the time of the murder.
Had that information been available at trial — and had the story of Shaun’s presence in court at the moment the murder was committed been told correctly — prosecutors agreed the trial would likely have ended differently, the statement reads.
The Pennsylvania Innocence Project, along with attorney and former Philadelphia police Sgt. James Figorski, represented Thomas for eight years prior to his release.
"I feel wonderful," Thomas said as he left the prison in Frackville on his way back to his fiancee, mother, siblings, children and friends in Philadelphia. "Life's too short for that. I just move on forward."
Thomas got to use a cell phone for the first time and planned to eat the "Ultimate Feast" at Red Lobster as his first meal, according to CBS News.
The district attorney's office will decide at a hearing next month whether they intend to retry Thomas.

Okorocha Rejects Federal Government's Appointment Given To His Daughter (See Details)
Here's an official press release from the governor;
RE: THE APPOINTMENT OF MRS UJU ROCHAS ANWUKA INTO THE BOARD OF FEDERAL COLLEGE OF EDUCATION (TECH) OMOKU
-His Excellency Governor Rochas Okorocha Rejects the Appointment.
The attention of the Governor of Imo State, Owelle Rochas Okorocha has been drawn to the publication listing one of the daughters, Mrs. Uju Rochas Anwuka as a member of the Board of the Federal College of Education (Tech), Omoku.
And it is important to swiftly state, with every sense of concern, that the governor had read about the appointment like every other Nigerian because he was never consulted or briefed on the appointment and that is why the whole thing looks suspicious.
To the governor, the appointment was obviously not done in good faith. Whoever was the brain behind the appointment did so out of unbridled mischief. Otherwise, the person behind the appointment would have had the courtesy of either informing the father or the mother.
The truth of the matter is that the governor’s daughter does not need the appointment. The governor has therefore asked whoever was behind the appointment to withdraw it since the daughter would not have needed the appointment, even if he had not become governor.
Indeed, the governor has the feeling that whoever was behind the appointment did it with something else at the back of his or her mind, otherwise the person would have acted well his or her part by informing him or the mother or even the daughter herself.
The daughter and the entire family reject the appointment.

Gunmen Opened Fire on Bus Carrying Christians, 26 People's Were Killed
There's a new report of a terror attack in Egypt. According to Egypt's Health Ministry spokesman Khaled Mugahed in a chat with TV al-Masriya, gunmen opened fire on a bus carrying Coptic Christians south of the Egyptian capital this morning killing 26 people and wounding 25.
The attack happened while the bus was traveling on the road to the St. Samuel Monastery in the Minya governorate, about 220 kilometers (140 miles) south of Cairo.
The ministry said there were between eight and 10 attackers dressed in military uniforms, according to witnesses. At the moment, no group immediately claimed responsibility for the attack, which comes on the eve of the holy Muslim month of Ramadan.
Egypt has been fighting Islamic State group-linked militants who have waged an insurgency, mainly focused in the volatile north of the Sinai Peninsula. Coptic Christians have faced persecution and discrimination in Egypt, which has spiked since the toppling of Hosni Mubarak's regime in 2011.
Dozens have been killed in sectarian violence. Coptic Christians make up about 10% of Egypt's population of 91 million. They base their theology on the teachings of the apostle Mark, who introduced Christianity to Egypt.
Woman Got Detained In Hospital After Giving Birth To Triplets Over N77,600 Unpaid Fee
A mother of triplets was reportedly detained in a General hospital in Benue State, over her unpaid medical bills two weeks after the children were delivered.
Facebook user, Ukan Kurugh, disclosed that the couple Mr and Mrs Dennis Anongo need the sum of N77,600 to pay the medical bills, before they can take their children home.
Below is what he wrote about the incident;
“MR. & MRS. ANONGO RECEIVES A GIFT OF TRIPLETS FROM GOD BUT CANNOT GO HOME FROM THE HOSPITAL DUE TO INABILITY TO PAY THE BILL OF N77,600: A PASSIONATE APPEAL FOR EMERGENCY AID. By: Ukan Kurugh
Successful delivery of children calls for celebration among parents, the story of Mr. & Mrs. Dennis Anongo comes with mixed feelings as his wife, Mrs. Kwaghaondo was delivered of triplets (2 boys and 1 girl) at the General Hospital, North-Bank, Makurdi. Amidst this joy, they have been unable to foot the hospital bill of Seventy Seven Thousand, Six Hundred Naira (N77,600), a reason for which the hospital has refused them departure.
While I was at the hospital this afternoon, one of the nurses, Sewuese who called my attention told me in confidence that, since birth, the children have not added in weight hence they were malnourished due to the mother’s poor feeding, which in turn has also affected them. It is incontestible that, at this time, enhanced feeding is deserved for a mother who has just put to bed and the nature of her feeding has overriding effects on the newborn.
The father of the children, Mr. Dennis Anongo is a peasant farmer who is resident at Atsom Village in Gwande District of Makurdi Local Government Area, a place located before Daudu on the Makurdi-Lafia road. The mother is but only a house wife who accompanies her husband to the farm.
The children which I gathered were delivered through cesarean session, which was done on the 10th of May, 2017 which means that they have been stayed at the hospital for more than 2 weeks now.
Feeding is equally a challenge, hence they are of rural domicile and all the visitors from the village only come along with either pounded yam, akpu or other forms of carbohydrate foods. This has equally affected the new born babies who have not added in size since over the 2 weeks of their birth.
I sincerely wish to use this medium to reach out to the government, humanitarian organizations, spirited individuals and all members of the public to add value to the lives of these new children who are for now been starved and suffered. It’s indeed an uncommon thing of joy that the children have come, but this challenge has countered the smooth happiness the family would have celebrated.
The father Mr. Dennis Anongo can be reached on mobile: 09096571784.
God bless us as we once again, touch lives, amen.”
Michael Jordan Been Surpassed By LeBron James as NBA Playoffs Leading Scorer
Cleveland Cavaliers star, LeBron James, has moved past Hall of Famer Michael Jordan as the leading scorer in NBA playoff history after helping his team to comfortably beat the Celtics 135-102 to clinch the best-of-seven series 4-1 on Thursday, and set up a third successive championship series against the Golden State Warriors.
James who needed 28 points to surpass Jordan (5,987 points) achieved the milestone which had stood for 19 years, in the third quarter with a three-point jump shot, which put the Cavaliers up by 32 points setting his new mark at of 5.995 points in 212 play-off games, while six-time NBA champion Jordan set his record in 179 games.
On smashing the record, the 32-year-old celebrated by raising his right index finger to signal number one, but quickly retreated to the backcourt to defend as the game continued.
Speaking to reporters after the game, the 32-year-old said: "I think, first of all, I wear the number (23) because of Mike," he told reporters after finishing the game with 35 points to take his total to 5,995 points.
"I think I fell in love with the game because of Mike, but when you're growing up and seeing Michael Jordan, it's almost like a god, so I never did believe I could be Mike."
"The biggest thing for me sitting here after breaking the all-time scoring record in playoff history, is I did it just being me.
"I don't have to score to make an impact on a game and that was my mindset when I started playing, if I'm not scoring how can I still make an impact on the game?
"It's carried me to this point now and it's going to carry me for the rest of my career because scoring is not number one on my agenda."
LeBron James who is no doubt one of best Basketballer in the World has won three NBA championships, four NBA Most Valuable Player Awards, three NBA Finals MVP Awards, two Olympic gold medals, an NBA scoring title among many others.

Kogi State Governor, Yahaya Bello Been Accused By INEC Over Double Registration
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has accused Kogi state governor Yahaya Bello of double registration for Permanent Voter Card, as against the electoral law.
A statement by INEC’s National Commissioner and Chairman, Information and Voter Education Committee (IVEC), Prince Solomon Soyebi, said Bello’s second registration was done on Tuesday at the Government House in Lokoja, outside the designated centre for ongoing nationwide Continuous Voter Registration (CVR).
The statement reads; “It has come to the attention of INEC that Kogi State Governor Yahaya Bello registered as a voter for the second time on Tuesday May 23, at Government House in Lokoja.
“His first registration was on January 30, 2011, in Wuse Zone 4, Abuja. The governor’s double registration, and doing so outside lNEC’s designated centres, are both illegal.
"For the Continuous Voter Registration (CVR), INEC has designated a centre in each of the country’s 774 local governments areas, including FCT’s six Area Councils.”
“We wish to clarify that no INEC worker was authorised to re-register Bello or any citizen, or to do so outside our designated registration centres. The commission, therefore, dissociates itself from the governor’s action, and promises to take disciplinary action against the staff who conducted Bello’s second registration.
“As for the governor, Section 308 (l) (a) of the 1999 Constitution (as amended), precludes lNEC from prosecuting him while in office. However, the commission has cancelled his second and illegal registration forthwith".
INEC said Gov. Yahaya Bello’s second registration will be cancelled as the Electoral Law make no exception for anyone to register more than once, and to do so outside designated centres.

Foluke Daramola's Husband Says He's Not Using Late Actress Moji Olaiya's Death To Seek Popularity
Foluke Daramola's husband, Kayode Salako has once again spoken to clear the air on his earlier comment on the death and burial committee set up for late Nollywood actress.
According to him, his comment was not meant to to seek publicity for himself, rather he was advocating for the right purpose to be achieved. Below is his post..
"What other popularity would I have been looking for in all of this? I have been talking on national television stations in the past 15 years; my wife is an A' list Nollywood celebrity of about 25 years stardom. I have featured in more than 300 news and celebrity journals as a prominent public affairs analyst; activist and social commentator. And I have taught more than 20,000 students as a seasoned educationist of more than 26 years since 1989. So, what is that popularity I am still looking for around anybody's death that even that of my own wife cannot pull for me? This is not about looking for popularity, but about advocating for the right purpose to be achieved..."

Manchester City Send Classy Tribute To Europa League Winners Manchester United
Following a difficult couple of days, there was a show of support from the blue half of the city after the red half’s victory in Stockholm
Manchester City sent a message of solidarity to Manchester United following their rivals’ triumph in the Europa League final.
Goals from Paul Pogba and Henrikh Mkhitaryan secured a third trophy of the season for Jose Mourinho after their successes in the Community Shield and EFL Cup and sealed a return to the Champions League.
The build-up to the match was overshadowed by the terror attack at Manchester Arena on Monday, which resulted in the deaths of 22 people, including children.
Manchester held a vigil in Albert Square on Tuesday in honour of the victims and in defiance of the perpetrators, while a minute’s silence was held before the start of Wednesday’s match at Friends Arena in Stockholm.
City and United both posted tributes in the aftermath of the bomb attack and Pep Guardiola’s side put their fierce rivalry aside with another classy post shortly after full-time.
The hashtag #ACityUnited, which has been circulating on social media for much of the last 24 hours, was posted via City’s official Twitter account moments after the final whistle, the text composed of City’s sky blue and the red of their rivals.w
