The Commissioner of Police in Kano State, Mr Rabiu Yusuf, has warned officers and men against demanding for money or any form of favour before granting bail to the suspects.

The police chief spoke at a lecture/ parade with officers and men working at State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department (SCIID), Divisional Crime Officers and Investigation Police Officers (IPOs) in the state.

Yusuf, according to a statement issued by the command’s Public Relations Officer, DSP Magaji Majiya, said that the era of bribery and corruption was over in the police circle.


“Nobody should accept or demand money or any form of favour for bail.

“Any senior police officer found to be engaged in corrupt practices will be queried and sent to the Force Headquarters for disciplinary action.


 “Inspectors and rank and file found wanting will be sanctioned appropriately,” Yusuf said.

He urged them to exhibit professionalism and diligence during investigation by collating all relevant evidences and witnesses and forward the case files to the Director of Public Prosecution (DPP) for Legal advice where applicable.

Yusuf urged the Legal/Prosecution Department to ensure diligence and logical prosecution of cases in the Court of Law and that cases should be judiciously followed up to gain conviction of criminals. (NAN)

SENATOR MELAYE DODGES HAVARD QUESTION ! (WATCH THE VIDEO)

One of Nigeria’s most controversial senators, Dino Melaye, during a live television interview today declined to answer whether he graduated from Harvard University.

The senator, who had previously claimed that he earned degrees from Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts and London School of Economics (LSE) in London, ducked pointed questions on the veracity of his claim during an interview on Friday on Channels Television.

The senator, who hails from Kogi State, refused to give an answer, telling the presenter that he did not want to be ridiculed.

The anchor of the program, “Politics Today,” Seun Akinbaloye, asked Melaye, “Did you graduate from Harvard? You said you have seven degrees altogether.”



Instead of offering a definite answer, Mr. Melaye went on a petty attack on another guest featured in the program.

After his rigmarole, the anchor fired a related question, “Did you have certificate now?” When Senator Melaye answered, “Yes,” the anchor followed up with, “Did you have a certificate course in Harvard or you had a degree course in Harvard?”

Rather than answer the question, Mr. Melaye went on a digression. “I believe in investigative journalism, and I am not going to be ridiculed on the platform of a television station,” he said.

He added: “It is not a question and answer series, whatever I have is mine.”



Officials at Harvard University and London School had told SaharaReporters that Mr. Melaye never received any degree from their respective institution.

Mr. Melaye’s refusal to answer the direct question about his academic relationship with the two foreign-based universities may signal his decision to walk away from his earlier unfounded claims to being a graduate of both prestigious universities.

KEMI OLUNLOYO: FREEDOM FOR 'SNITCHLADY' NOW

Kemi Omolulu-Olunloyo aka  Snitchlady, was re-arrested over the alleged sex scandal  publication against the General Overseer of Salvation Ministries, Pastor David Ibiyeomie.

You may not like Kemi, but what is the meaning of this arrest and re-arrested?  Did she stole ballot box or kiddnaped president's daughter? According to DAILY POST reports , Kemi was re-arrested shortly after a Chief Magistrate Court in Port Harcourt granted her bail to the tune of N200, 000, along with a Port Harcourt based publisher, Samuel Walson.

Okay we agreed that she blogged the alleged sex scandal, let the Mr.Pastor sue her to court; because the offence in question is a bailable offence!

Meanwhile, the question i really love ask Mr G. O. is that;  don't you have 'spirit of forgiveness' as preached by Jesus Christ, or are we only talking about prosperity here?

Freedom for Kemi Olunloyo now.

WAEC CONFIRMS THAT SENATOR AND UBA FORGED HIS RESULT~~~SR

SaharaReporters has obtained a document issued by WAEC declaring that Senator Emmanuel Nnamdi Uba, better known as Andy Uba, forged both a secondary school certificate and “Confirmation of Result” which he presented to British authorities.

In a letter dated February 12, 2014 and addressed to the attention of George Smith of Public Agencies, located at 57 Peel Road, Wembley Middlesex, HA9 7LY in the U.K, WAEC stated, “Letter reference no. L/CR/CONF/05465089 dated 21st November, 2013 is fake.”

Uba’s real results, as certified by WAEC in its letter to Mr. Smith, showed that he scored “credit” in only one subject, Chemistry and flunked others.

By contrast, Mr. Uba’s falsified results claimed that he earned the following grades: English Literature 4, English Language 7, Christian Religious Knowledge 7, Economics 4, Statistics 6, Mathematics 6, Physics 4, and Chemistry 6.

In addition, Uba also claimed that he obtained bachelor’s, master’s and doctorate degrees from Concordia University, Canada, California State University, and Buxton University in the UK.

SR investigations disclosed that Mr. Uba indeed registered as an undergraduate student in both Concordia University and California State University, but that he dropped out of both institutions.

Further investigation also showed that Buxton University is not an accredited institution of learning, but a “certificate mill” that sells degrees to anybody willing to pay a small fee.

Even though Mr. Uba’s official website claimed that the senator attended Buxton University in the UK, the fake institution does not have any physical address in Britain. It once operated out of Portugal, using that country as a location from which to send “certificates” to customers around the world.
