The former Chairman of the defunct Pension Reformed Task Team (PRTT), Abdulrasheed Maina, has pleaded for another bail at the Federal High Court, Abuja, to enable him to seek a medical attention for his worsening health.
He made the request in a motion on notice filed by his counsel, Anayo Adibe, dated December 24, 2020 with charge number: FHC/ABJ/CR/258/19.
The counsel said the application was vital because his client’s worsening health required urgent medical attention.
When the matter came up on Wednesday, Justice Okon Abang adjourned its hearing till February 1.
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) arraigned Maina in 2019 for alleged N2 billion money laundering.
He was granted bail in December 2019 and remained in custody due to his inability to perfect the bail conditions.
Maina was eventually released after the Chairman of the Senate Committee on the Nigerian Army, Ali Ndume, intervened and agreed to stand as his surety.
The ex-pension task team chief later jumped bail and absconded to the Niger Republic.
The development forced Justice Abang to revoke the bail and issued a warrant for his arrest.
Maina was arrested in the Niger Republic and extradited to Nigeria on December 4, 2020.
It is a common occurrence especially in this part of the world to refuse or be indifferent to proposals; especially courtship and marriage proposals. Naijapremiumgist posts Five Ways Single Sisters Say ‘NO’ to Brothers’ Proposals.
E.g: Bro: “Sister Elizabeth, I really like your dimple, and your smile makes me think about heaven.”
Sis: “Awwwwwww… Bro Emmanuel, Nice lines you’ve got there. You should be a poet. Well, I like my dimple too. May we never lose sight of heaven, my brother.”
Bro: “What I mean is, I believe you are the one for me.”
Sis: “But I heard that there’s always more than one person for each of us who are God’s children.”
Bro: “True.”
Bro: “I think I’m beginning to like you more and more, Sister Grace.”
Sis: “I really like you too. I especially like your long and firm fingers, and the way you use them to play piano. You must play piano for me and my husband when I marry. Please, say Yes.”
Bro: “But what about what I just said.”
Sis: “Sincerely, I like you too. But I love Bro Victor more than you by far.”
Bro: “I believe God has led me to you. And I really like to settle down with you as my life partner.”
Sis: “Have you eaten?”
Bro: “Please, I’m serious. Tell me what you think. I really need your response.”

A lady evangelist, Kanye Tumba has dragged the Pastor of House Chapel in Karewa, Yola North local government area of Adamawa, Marwa Tumba, to court over an alleged fake marriage promise.
The evangelist told the Criminal Area Court II, Yola, presided over by Magistrate Nuhu Musa Garta that she met the man of God after a prayer meeting at Yolde Pate, the suburb of Yola South LGA in 2019.
She said the pastor claimed that he saw in a vision that they would get married and asked her to start sowing a seed.”
The evangelist told the court that she resigned from work and sold her house for N500,000 as dictated by the pastor, adding that she gave part of the proceeds to his church
Tumba also demanded the list of all items required for traditional marriage, and asked the woman to go to her parent house in Michika for a formal introduction and marriage arrangement.
He stopped picking the evangelist’s calls and absconded thereafter.
She expressed sadness at her present situation, saying the pastor squandered her money, made her quit her job, and sold her only house.
The woman told the court she currently lives in one uncompleted building in Yolde Pate and sells vegetables to earn a living.
However, the pastor denied the allegations.
The court adjourned the matter till February 4.

The Kaduna State University (KASU) on Monday directed students of the institution to return to campus on January 25 for the commencement of academic activities.
Three other institutions in the state, the Ahmadu Bello University (ABU), Federal College of Education, Zaria and Nuhu Bamalli Polytechnic also announced the resumption plans.
The KASU Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Muhammad Tanko, disclosed this during a stakeholders’ meeting on the reopening of schools in Kaduna.
The meeting was organised by the state’s Ministry of Education and attended by heads of tertiary institutions in the state, private school owners, parents and government officials.
Tanko, who was represented at the meeting by the university’s Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Administration), Prof. Yohanna Tella, said the institution proposed a six-week lecture if allowed to open on January 25.
He added that virtual lectures for large classes of more than 50 students would be conducted for students in the lower levels and physical lectures for small classes of 50 students for those in higher levels.
The vice-chancellor said: “We have also planned practical classes in batches of fewer than 25 students for smaller classes and 45 for larger classes. The examinations for 100 level and 200 level students will be computer-based.
He said the COVID-19 protocols enforcement task force put in place by the university’s Student Affairs Division would ensure the fumigation and general sanitation of the hostel’s environment.
The Dean of Student Affairs, ABU, Prof. Muhammad Fatihu, said the university would resume in phases to prevent overcrowding on campus.
Fatihu said that university, with more than 43,000 undergraduate and 11,000 postgraduate students could not afford to ask all the students to resume at the same time without putting them at risk.
He said: “We have decided to phase the resumption for the continuation of the First Semester 2019/2020 academic session by dividing the semesters into two.
“Half of the students will resume and conclude the semester before the second batch resume while the first batch are at home.

He said physical lectures would be staggered, adding that while some students would listen to lectures via radio, others would attend lectures in classes in controlled numbers.

Veteran Nigerian singer , Onyeka Onwenu has revealed that she once rejected marriage proposal from the music legend, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti. She revealed this in her new autobiography , titled “my father’s daughter”. Onyeka revealed that she rejected Fela’s marriage proposal during her visit to his club because of his other wives. According to her , she is a possessive lover and did not understand Fela’s love for women.Narrating how Fela proposed marriage , Onyeka wrote;
“The second time I saw Fela was in 1984, a few years after I had returned from the United States. He had just been released from jail. He was arrested for attempting to travel with his gang for a gig in London with a sum of 1,600pounds for their hotel accommodation. At that time, carrying any amount of foreign currency was against one of the many decrees promulgated by the Buhari/Idiagbon military junta. After he was released from prison, Fela sent a mutual friend, the journalist Onuorah Udenwa who is now a US-based pastor, to bring me to his club. I thought that he probably wanted to thank me for speaking up for him but that was not it. He never even mentioned in the article I had written in solidarity for him. Fela wanted to marry me and I was flattered. I thanked him for the honour of wanting me to become his consort but I turned him down all the same”.
The music legend added that while she waited at the club to see him, she noticed that his Queens (dancer-wives)had been looking at her with scorn. “They passed often , whispering comments about me. They were downright hostile and quite obvious about it. I pointed this out to him and told him that,” I was a possessive lover and would not be able to cope as an appendage to his harem but Fela laughed”.
This story is strange but true, because there are many things going on in this world, that we sometimes can not even explain.We wonder how they really happened, because it is rare for that event to come into place.This is the story of a woman who gave birth to a child for her step son, after divorcing his father.
It all started some years back, when a woman named Marina Balmasheva got married to Alexey, and helped to raise his son, who was seven years old then.If the man had known that she would later get married to her son, maybe he would not have gotten married to her.
Their relationship began after the woman, who is thirty five years old, fell in love with the young man, who is just twenty one years old, after he came back from university.She later divorced his father, got married to him and now has given birth to a daughter for her step son.
It is very obvious that the new couple are enjoying their marriage, as their pictures on the internet says it all.They look happy with the decision that they made.
Mr Alexy, her ex-husband said that she was the one that made her son to marry her, because she cheated on him by luring him, after he came back from the university.He said that sometimes when he is sleeping, she would go to his son’s room and come back as if nothing happened.

Theologians and the majority of Christian denominations, believe that the Holy Spirit, or Holy Ghost, is the third person of the Trinity, the Triune God manifested as God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit, each entity itself being God. … In Christian theology, pneumatology refers to the study of the Holy Spirit.
Many Pentecostals believe that the holy spirit can indwell into someone and make them do things such as speaking in tongues and prophesying.
One party supposedly got a visit from the holy spirit and the mood just drastically changed from partying to a praise and worship session.
Twitter users had a good laugh at the bizzare video clip that has been doing the rounds, in the video a group of girls and guys are having good time drinking and partying and suddenly out of the blue the girls start praying and speaking in tongues.
What do you think could have happened to these girls to behave in this manner?
