The Police authorities have replaced Adeleye Oyebade with Anthony Ogbizi as the new Commissioner of Police in Abia state, Southeast Nigeria.

Details of Adeleye's removal is sketchy but it might be connected to the recent clashes between members of the Indigenous People of Biafra and the Nigerian Army.

However, Adeleye has handed over to the newly appointed Commissioner, urging the men and officers of the command to give his successor their maximum support and cooperation.

Meanwhile, Ogbizi has immediately assumed duty after a brief handover ceremony at the state police headquarters in Umuahia, with a call on residents to embark on profitable ventures and ensure peace in the state.

The new Commissioner condemned the razing of Ariaria Police Station in Aba and expressed his resolve to work hard to make Abia safe for all.

Ogbizi warned against clamour for disintegration of the country, saying there would never be "a republic within a republic".

KILLER DUBBED "A KNOWN HANNIBAL LECTER" SET TO PLEAD GUILTY

Casey Pigge is shown in an undated photo provided by the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction. An investigative report by the Dayton Daily News has found that the strangulation of an inmate on an Ohio prison bus by Pigge, a twice convicted murderer, was preventable. After Casey Pigge was taken into custody last year for using a brick to kill his cellmate by repeatedly smashing his head, he made one thing clear to investigators. "Pigge denied any desire to be a serial killer, but could not promise that he wouldn't kill again," a prison social worker said after interviewing him. On Feb. 1, just two days after pleading guilty to beating cellmate Luther Wade to death, Pigge was placed in a prison transport van with several other inmates. As the bus headed south through Pickaway County in central Ohio, investigators say, Pigge used a chain meant to restrain him around the stomach to strangle inmate David Johnson. "I guess you never seen that on a bus before,...

Houses Belonging To Nigerians Burnt In South Africa By Nationals February 14,2017 Some South African nationals in Rosettenville, south of Johannesburg, have burned down about 15 houses belonging to immigrants, especially Nigerians residing there. The locals, who were apparently peeved, have accused the non-indigenes of turning their neighbourhood into a drug den. According to Africa Review, some shops belonging to foreign nationals in the area were also looted on Sunday, February 12, 2017. The South African residents in the area are of the opinion that Nigerians had illegally taken over most property and turned them into drug and prostitution dens, thereby calling for their sack from the neighbourhood. Confirming the attacks when contacted, Marc Gbaffou, African Diaspora Forum (ADM) chairperson, blamed Herman Mashaba, Johannesburg mayor, for his inflammatory comments. In December 2016, Mashaba had told a media conference that illegal immigrants got there crim...

LAI MOH'D DENIES EVER LYING TO NIGERIANS 18th Feb 2017, The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed has called on those labeling him a liar to provide evidence of one lie he has told to warrant giving a different meaning to his first name.  Mohammed said in as much he was ready to answer different names based on the nature of his job, one thing he did not get himself prepared for was the pure hatred he was getting from the opposition. The Minister was speaking in an interview with the Sun in Lagos, where he noted that he did his job while in opposition with clear mind and did not attack any individual. Mohammed, who was the All Progressives Congress, APC’s mouthpiece, noted that the opposition will always attack him no matter what he did, since he played a major role in their downfall. His words, “I think anybody who occupies a public office should know that this sort of thing goes with the terrain. But probably what I was not prepared for was the viciou...
