Kanye West Name Most Stylish Man Of the Year by GQ

Because duh. It was a battle between two very appropriate candidates. Idris Elba and Kanye West squared off to claim GQ’s Most Stylish Man of 2014. When it came down to the final decision, all fingers pointed to Kanye. Fair enough but no one can deny Idris Elba was pretty tough competition. Ye’s been outspoken as to how difficult it had been without music this year. Even if Kanye inspires hundreds of fashion magazines, GQ included, he couldn’t hide how difficult its been solely focusing on fashion and letting music take a backseat somewhat. Take a look at the full article here.

The story of alleged extra-judicial killing of Femi Bello by Nigerian police

Friends and family of Femi Bello (pictured above), who died last week while in the custody of Abuja police want people to know what happened to their son and are demanding justice. Below is the mail I received telling the story of Femi Below...

Femi Bello is a 300 level student of Economics in Kaduna State University, he had just finished his 2nd Semester exams with the hope of proceeding to his final year, graduating and supporting his mum in Abuja, who had just lost her husband some 4 months before then, after a protracted illness. A very bright and enterprising young man, he had secured a little contract to customize some Tee-Shirts for a party being organized in his school. He therefore traveled to Abuja on Thursday 4th Dec. 2014 to carry out the job at the popular UTC shopping complex. He went home to inform his mum of the contract he secured and to notify her that he would be proceeding to Area 10 where UTC shopping complex is located, but the mum was not at home and so he left a message for her to that effect along with a chicken he bought for her as well as a pair of shoes he bought for his younger brother.

Femi went to UTC shopping complex to deliver the Tee-Shirts to Jerry the printer and decided to visit a friend at Mararaba. While sitting outside the friend’s house Samba, in Mararaba at about 4 pm. A Golf Volkswagen car suddenly parked in front of them and some men numbering 8 Came out and arrested Femi, his host and other friends numbering about 7. They were handcuffed and taken to the Mararaba Police Station.

The mum and siblings who had waited for Femi the whole day, unaware of his arrest, started getting worried and made several efforts to reach him but to no avail, as his phone was switched off. Eventually they got some information on the evening of Sunday 7th December, of his arrest and detention. His younger brother, Biodun, went to the Police station to confirm this story and the Police officers confirmed his arrest, but advised him to come back the next morning before 10 am as Femi’s case was being transferred to the State CID at Lafia, Nasarawa State. He requested to see his brother but this request was turned down. Biodun saw shoes and other personal effects he knew specifically belonged to his brother. By the next morning, based on the little information obtained the night before, Biodun went in company of a lawyer, Barr. Napon Wuyep to the Police station with the hope that they could secure his release or, at least, further information about the nature of the offence for which Femi was being held.

When the lawyer got to the counter as is the practice, and asked to see Femi, he was first told that Femi was not in their cell, but he was referred to the crime office, where he met one Adamu who directed him to see the Divisional Police Officer (DPO), SP John Omege. The DPO in a very dramatic manner however, informed Barr. Napon that Femi was dead in vernacular “him don die”. Biodun, unable to bear the news broke down in uncontrollable tears. The DPO further informed the lawyer that Femi had confessed to owning a gun kept somewhere in Bwari and that while they were taking him in the Police van with handcuffs on, somewhere around ‘sharp corner’ in Mararaba, Femi jumped out of the moving van, that he was immediately rushed to the Medical Centre in Mararaba but unfortunately, the medical workers were on strike and so they took him to a private hospital, where he was confirmed dead.

When this news was broken to Femi’s relatives, they found it hard to believe because Femi was generally regarded as a gentle soul who could hardly hurt a fly and saw no reason why Femi would have a gun. He was also described as a very studious person who was hoping to come out with at worst, a Second Class Upper at the end of his course. They felt dissatisfied and even started having doubts if the Femi arrested was their own Femi, and as such could not break the news to his hypertensive mum.

The next day Tuesday, 9th December, the Lawyer in company of members of the family went back to the Police station seeking to see the body of the deceased for identification, the DPO however told them that was beyond his powers as the case was being transferred to the State CID in Lafia and advised them to direct their request to Lafia, which they immediately did, the DPO also showed them a picture of the corpse which family members confirmed bore a resemblance of Femi’s but still expressed some doubts. The family on the same day, also wrote to the Commissioner of Police, Nasarawa State, requesting a full report of the circumstances leading to the arrest and eventual death of Femi. On arrival at Lafia, which is over 3 hours’ drive from Mararaba, they sought to see the Officer in Charge of the State CID, ACP Tarfa, whom the DPO had specifically directed them to, but his aides would not let them, but rather directed them to the Officer in Charge of SARS Nasarawa, one Cletus.

Cletus pointedly told them they could neither see nor secure the release of the body of the deceased but confirmed to them that the deceased was Femi. In another twist, quite contrary to the story the DPO had told the lawyer earlier, Cletus informed them that the case was that of armed robbery and that Femi was killed during a gun battle between the robbers and police. The mother has been informed of the death of her son, leaving her broken and devastated. The family strongly believes that Femi was arrested on trumped up suspicions and was tortured to death while trying to secure a confession. Their fears are based on the contradictions in the stories of his death as told by the DPO and the OC SARS as well as the determined and persistent refusal of the Police to permit the family to sight the corpse suggestive of a grand design to cover up the extra-judicial killing of Femi Bello by the Police.

The family is distraught, helpless and seeking justice for their son who they believe was cut in his prime by the Nigerian police.

Parents be careful! Abuja maid strangles 3 year old girl to death

Parents please be careful with the kind of people you bring around your children. It is your responsibility to protect them. I know with work and other engagements it is almost impossible not to have someone to help with the kids but make sure it's someone you can trust with the lives of your children. Last month, we all watched in horror as a Ugandan maid battered a 2 year old girl.

This week we heard about the maid who took two young boys from their home in Lagos after just a few weeks of working with the family. And I just heard about a maid in Abuja who strangled a 3 year old girl recently just because the girl's mum told her she couldn't travel to her village for Christmas.

The disappointed maid was said to have killed the little girl in anger because the girl's mother had insisted she had to stay in Abuja to look after the child. Please mothers, be more careful.
