IMG_20140722_124745
The Abia state police command has paraded, among others, a 27 year old undergraduate of Madonna University, Chijioke Ezebuiro, for allegedly killing his 87 year old father, Dr Emmanuel Ezebuiro.
Speaking with newsmen in Umuahia the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) ASP Geoffrey Ogbonna, who paraded the suspect alongside other cultists and robbers, said that Chijioke Ezebuiro  is the prime suspect as he was the only person in the house at the time of his late father’s death.
Ogbonna said that the death occurred on June 30, 2014 at the deceased home at Umuoriehi, Isingwu in Umuahia North local government area and was reported to the police by one Ezebuiro Chimezie of the same address who said the deceased had been bed ridden for some years.
He said that on the fateful day he (Chimezie) had left him in the house to drop his children in school and that when he came back, he met the deceased on the ground in his own pool of blood and quickly called the deceased personal doctor who confirmed him dead.
The PPRO said that the complainant had told the police that when he left the house to drop his children, the suspect, Chijioke Ezebuiro, his younger brother, was the only one in the house when the incident occurred, adding that the suspect had threatened his father’s life a number of times.

I Am Not Yet A Father, I Have No Child- Wizkid



         
In a recent interview with Sunday Sun, singer Wizkid denied fathering a child. Excerpts:

Sometime ago you were caught up in a love child controversy and after a while we didn’t hear anything about that again. So, are you a dad?

That story was false and there was no truth in it.

So, you are saying  you have no child?

No there is none.

It will be recalled that sometime last year, word came out that Wizkid had fathered a child. Although the singer didn't make any attempt at denying or confirming the story, I remember him tweeting about humans making mistakes around the time when the news broke, which led many to believe that the tales were indeed true. Also a picture surfaced recently on the internet, showing Wizkid's child and baby mama. The singer has now officially denied it all as rumors

Father and son get jailterm for raping children (PICTURED)


Barry Ford, 64, and Craig McKellar, 31,
A father and son have been jailed for 18 and 10 years respectively for a series of rapes on children and women.
Former charity shop workers Barry Ford, 64, and Craig McKellar, 31, inflicted untold misery on their victims, the judge said at Mold Crown Court.
Ford – who had the longer sentence – and McKellar, both of Colwyn Bay, used their victims as “sexual objects”.
Sex attacks committed by Ford, who corrupted his son from a young age, dated back to the 1980s.
Ford was jailed for six counts of rape and 10 of sexual assault. McKellar was jailed for three counts of rape and four of sexual assault.
The prosecutions were brought last year after victims, many of them children and young people, complained to North Wales Police. Judge Rhys Rowlands praised their courage.
The court heard that Ford, originally from Wolverhampton, had previously worked as a representative for the cosmetic company Avon. He made his young victims wear make-up and perfume.
The judge said the offences were born out of Ford’s depravity.
“Fortunately, it is rare in the extreme for a court to have to deal with two men, a father and son, who between them have inflicted untold misery and anguish on others,” he said.
“Had your son had a normal upbringing, with a decent individual for a father who knew how to behave, then it may be that he would not be standing alongside you today,” he told Ford.
McKellar had “a truly dreadful start in life and was shown no sort of example by his father,” the judge said.
The court heard McKellar committed sex attacks as a child for which he could not be prosecuted. But he was prosecuted for rapes he went on to commit in his 20s.
‘Sexual objects’
The judge said the men had lived a lie. He said they outwardly gave the impression of being considerate and charitable men. In reality, they had sexually taken advantage of children and young and vulnerable women.
“They were assaulted, used as sexual objects,” the judge told them.
The judge said some of their victims had been very badly affected. One victim was driven to prostitution in order to pay for an abortion as a result of a rape.
Judge Rowlands told both defendants: “It is beyond the comprehension of right thinking people that anybody could behave in the way that you did towards these victims.”
There were a number of victims and the defendants’ behaviour had a profound and ongoing impact on them.
In sentencing the pair, the judge said he had to consider the harm caused already caused and the risk they posed for the future.
The court was told complaints about Ford had been made to police in the Midlands during the 1980s and 1990s but he was not prosecuted.
The judge said Ford believed he had got away with his crimes and went on to commit further offences.
‘Complex and damaging past’
McKellar previously admitted four charges of sexual assault and two rape.
Ford denied all charges but following two separate trials, he was convicted of seven charges of rape and six of indecent assault against others.
Wyn Lloyd Jones, prosecuting, said the victims were now adults who had the courage to come forward to give evidence about what happened to them when they were children.
Ford told them they were playing “big girls’ games”.
Simon Mintz, defending Ford, asked the court to consider his age and life expectancy.
Andrew Green, defending McKellar, said his client would need specialist help to try and unravel a complex and damaging past. He had been psychologically damaged.
Det Con Paul Jones said after sentencing: “This has been a complex investigation which has involved several victims of all ages, living in different parts of the country.
“Ford, who was found guilty of these offences, has shown no remorse for his crimes, putting the victims and witnesses through the ordeal of a court trial.”
