Allow me witness my mum’s burial, robbery suspect begs

One of the robbery suspects, Illiyasu Suleiman, arrested by the Ondo State Police Command in Akure, yesterday, pleaded with the Police to allow him witness the burial of his mother as he went into robbery to raise money to bury her.

He made the plea during the parade of four suspected robbers by the Ondo State Police Commissioner, Gbenga Adeyanju, yesterday, where the Police boss disclosed that two soldiers and four others were arrested for robbery and kidnapping along Akure-Owo Expressway in the state.

The suspects, according to CP Gbenga Adeyanju, were arrested with charms, AK-47 rifle, Nigerian Army uniforms, two booklets of Army pass, one Berreta pistol, cutlasses, knives, and one Hummer Jeep.

The two soldiers, who would be handed over to the Army authorities for prosecution, were not paraded alongside Jacob Amos, Iliyasu Suleiman, Moses Aleka and Jaiyeola Ojo.

Speaking with newsmen, Illiyasu Suleiman, who claimed to be a computer repairer, said he was invited from Kogi State and lured into robbery by his friends, who claimed they were into internet fraud.

Suleiman, 37, said the need to raise money for his mother’s burial led him into the robbery, adding “I joined the gang to raise enough money for my mother’s burial.

“When I came, he told me it was Yahoo. It was when I got to him that it became a different thing. I told them I cannot go out like this, and they said there was no problem.

“It was when we went out that I knew it was a real problem. The village people shouted on us and we ran. I was later arrested by the Police.

“I am a laptop repairer. He told me to come and that he would teach me how to make faster money with Yahoo.

“I am appealing to the Police to sympathise with me because of my late mother. I don’t care what they want to do to me, but I want to witness her burial

China positive about US negotiation remark on North Korea

China said on Thursday it was positive that the United States is open to resolving tensions over North Korea through talks. Foreign Ministry spokesman Geng Shuang made the comment at a regular news briefing in Beijing. The Trump administration said on Wednesday it aimed to push North Korea into dismantling its nuclear and missile programs through tougher international sanctions and diplomatic pressure, and remained open to negotiations to bring that about. NAN reports that the U.S. stance, which appeared to signal a willingness to exhaust non-military avenues inspite of repeated warnings that “all options are on the table,” came in a statement following an unusual White House-hosted briefing for the entire U.S. Senate followed by a briefing to the House of Representatives. The statement from Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, Defence Secretary Jim Mattis and Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats described North Korea as “an urgent national security threat and top foreign policy

I’m different from young artistes – Majek Fashek

Since his return to the Nigerian music scene, veteran reggae maestro, Majek Fashek, has been on a conscious mission to once again stamp his feet on the music space, reclaiming his throne as the only musician in the world who can draw rain with his music fic. In a recent interview with HIPTV, the rain maker, as he is fondly called, claimed there is a cut clear difference between the quality of sound and music he makes and that of young artistes. According to Majek, “I make sound while all these young musicians make jam, I make good sound but they are always jamming, they don’t make good sound, they just jam. My song ‘Send down the rain’ was made over thirty years ago, but if you listen to it today, you will realize that the sound will appeal to both the old and equally the young ones because the sound is good and still relevant today, that is something the young musicians don’t have.” In a one-on-one chat with E-Daily , Majek explained that his statement in the inter
