The command’s Public Relations Officer, Babalola Adewole, confirmed the arrest of the suspects, saying operatives recovered a cutlass believed to be the murder weapon, a T-shirt and one rubber toy pistol from the suspects.

Adewole said, “The Niger State police command has declared war on crimes in the state; we urge the people to report any suspicious person to the nearest police station.

JAPAN ;REPORTER DIES AFTER 159 HOURS OF OVERTIME

By

Japanese workers famously put in long hours, leading, in extreme cases, to karoshi, or death from overwork. Japanese media outfit, NHK, has apologized to the parents of deceased Japanese reporter, Miwa Sado, who died of heart failure after reportedly working for 159 hours of overtime in a month. Sado, who had been covering political news in Tokyo was found dead in her bed in July 2013, reportedly clutching her mobile phone. "The chairman met the parents at their home in the morning and apologised," an NHK spokesman told AFP. A government inquest a year after her death ruled that it was linked to excessive overtime. She had taken two days off in the month before she died. NHK eventually made the case public four years later, bowing to pressure from Sado's parents to take action to prevent a recurrence. 'Karoshi' The case has again highlighted the Japanese problem of "karoshi" — meaning death from overwork — and is an embarrassing revela...

WASHINGTON — President Trump's son-in-law and senior adviser, Jared Kushner, failed to disclose what lawmakers called a "Russian backdoor overture and dinner invite" involving a banker who has been accused of links to Russian organized crime, three sources familiar with the matter have said.   An email chain described Aleksander Torshin, a former senator and deputy head of Russia's central bank who is close to Russian President Vladimir Putin, as wanting Trump to attend an event on the side lines of a National Rifle Association convention in Louisville, Kentucky, in May 2016, the sources said. The email also suggests Torshin was seeking to meet with a high-level Trump campaign official during the convention, and that he may have had a message for Trump from Putin, the sources said.   Kushner rebuffed the request after receiving a lengthy email exchange about it between a West Virginia man and Trump campaign ai...

Ford is taking legal actions by suing the "American Grit" star for violating their contract by selling his new $500k 2017 Ford GT.

The "Total Bellas" star signed a deal where he agreed to hold onto the car for at least two years before he can unload it. The company claims that as soon as the professional wrestler received the vehicle, he immediately sold it for a big profit.

Ruling ZANU-PF party to hold rally after calling for Mr. Mugabe's resignation; Army appears to want a transition to former Vice-President Emmerson Mnangagwa. President Robert Mugabe's own ruling ZANU-PF party wants him to step down and plans to hold a rally in Zimbabwe's capital Harare on November 18 to make the point. Mr. Mugabe, at Zimbabwe's helm since independence from Britain in 1980, faces the starkest challenge ever to his rule after the army seized power on November 15, saying it was targeting "criminals" around the nonagenarian leader. ZANU-PF called on November 17 for Mr. Mugabe to resign, the main state newspaper The Herald reported, a clear sign that the ageing leader's authority has collapsed after the Army takeover.
