“I dated my girl for three years without sex. For her, I decided to remain celibate because she wasn’t ready for it. After our Traditional marriage, she still refused and wouldn’t let me touch her at all. We however fixed our wedding date. On my bachelor’s eve, my friends were around with their girlfriends. I really wanted to have my woman to myself that night and I spoke to her about it but she turned me down as usual and begged me to wait a little longer. I agreed after all, we would be married soon. At last D-DAY finally came and I was waiting patiently for the wedding ceremony to be over. At 6pm, we were home relaxing. I called  my wife and asked that we  take a shower together, she said she was shy and cannot come. I didn’t force her. She however had her bath first and I had mine later.

The police in Lagos ha arrested a 38-year-old businessman, Williams Peter, for allegedly refusing to pay a debt of N600,000 he incurred in a gambling game. Peter is reported to be a chronic gambler. One Solomon Adetoro, who operated the game centre, was also apprehended by the police for conniving with Peter to allegedly defraud the management of the gambling firm. Our correspondent learnt that Peter approached Adetoro at the gambling outlet on Olowu Street, Ikeja, Lagos, on May 24, 2018, to play the game.

“…I must say that I am morally outraged by the facts of this case; the people of Taraba State had elected the defendant, a clergyman, on three different occasions; their expectations must have been very high. “How would he begin to explain to the people of Taraba State his actions? How would he explain such a colossal loss to the people?…” The above quote was an extract from the concluding statements in the ruling of an Abuja Federal High court judge, Adebukola Banjoko, on the suit filed by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) against former governor of Taraba State, Jolly Nyame, a reverend. The ex-governor was on Wednesday convicted of misappropriating N1.64 billion from the state’s treasury through shoddy stationery contracts which he awarded at the tail of his eight years administration that ended in 2007. It was one of the longest trials that eventually (started in 2007). The conviction earned the former governor the ill-repute of being the second governor...

Opeyemi Bamidele, the erstwhile federal lawmaker from Ekiti State who was shot on Friday, has undergone surgery and is now recuperating at a hospital in Ado Ekiti. Bamidele, a chieftain of the opposition All Progressives Congress (APC), was shot during a reception organised at the party’s secretariat for Dr. Kayode Fayemi, flagbearer of the party in the forthcoming Ekiti State governorship election. Taiwo Olatubosun, spokesman of the APC in Ekiti, revealed this to Sahara Reporters on the phone on Saturday. “He [Bamidele] is still at the Intensive Care Unit of the hospital, and he has gone through an operation yesterday night,” he said. “In fact, he was at the theatre and was also operated upon, while a bullet was removed from his body.” He noted that the attack was also an attempt to kill the candidate of the APC, Dr. Fayemi during the grand reception. “The attack is an orchestrated attempt by an unknown person to terminate the life of our candidate [Fayemi],” he said. ...
