With the stark reality of defeat staring them in the face on March 28 and April 11 general elections, a reward for their maladministration, incumbent President Jonathan and his co-travellers have intensified their global campaign of calumny and outright fallacy – their well-known stock in trade.<br/><br /><br/><br /><br/><br /><br/><br />“Nigerians are yet to forget the phoney phone call to the King of Morocco that never was or the futile effort to stop Buhari from speaking to the world at UK think tank at Chatham House, where their rented crowd confessed to being paid for a hatchet job.”<br/><br /><br/><br /><br/><br /><br/><br />Shehu said Grenell is not a US ex-envoy but a former spokesperson for four past US Ambassadors to the United Nations.<br/><br /><br/><br /><br/><br /><br/><br />According to him, Grenell’s firm ”Capitol Media Partners” was recruited by the Presidency and the PDP to say unfortunate statements about Buhari, stressing that Grenell made the statements not as an envoy or diplomat but as a media contractor for the Presidency and the PDP.<br/><br /><br/><br /><br/><br /><br/><br />The APC Spokesman said the latest lie by the government and the PDP underscores “the new low to which Nigeria’s foreign policy drift has sunk under the Jonathan government, which hires all manners of local and global quacks, to manage their tattered image marked by cluelessness, incompetence, squander-mania, meteoric corruption and dearth of developmental ideas.”<br/><br /><br/><br /><br/><br /><br/><br />Meanwhile, the APCPCO said it had been vindicated on its stance of not participating in the presidential campaign debates, owing to the fact that the organizers, the Nigeria Election Debate Group had been compromised.<br/><br /><br/><br /><br/><br /><br/><br />via nigerianeye</div><br /></div>

They dug deep into graves and brought buried bodies to a slaughter slab where they used knives to decimate them into parts and sell to prospective buyers who, in turn, used the parts for money-making rituals.</i> </b><br/><br /><br/><br /><br/><br /><br/><br />They must have been committing this heinous crime for some time and, since they had murdered sleep, the ghosts of those they had troubled did not allow them to rest until they were caught. The suspects arrested in connection with the alleged crime were Abati Kolade, Tayo Akinrinola, Ramon Korede, Mojeed Adediran and Saki Adediran.<br/><br /><br/><br /><br/><br /><br/><br /><a id="more" name="more"> </a><br/><br /><br/><br /><br/><br /><br/><br />While narrating how they were caught, CP Katsina said, “Following a petition referred to the State Intelligence Bureau by the Commissioner of Police, the operatives of the bureau began a discreet investigation into the criminal activities taking place at Muslim cemetery located around Lifefort International School, Apete, Ibadan where graves, numbering about six, had been excavated by unknown perpetrators. Through a painstaking, coordinated investigation and a clue left behind by the perpetrators, the operatives arrested five suspects who confessed to the alleged crime. Among the suspects arrested is a female who confessed to the crime and disclosed that she usually bought human skull at the rate of 4,000”.<br/><br /><br/><br /><br/><br /><br/><br />The woman human parts dealer suspect, Saki Adediran, spoke to newsmen, saying, “Korede, one of the suspects, always buys charms from me. One day, he told me he had ‘biscuit’ or menumo (human head). I bought it and gave him N4,000. We have been doing it for quite sometime”.<br/><br /><br/><br /><br/><br /><br/><br />When asked to disclose the identity of the person she sold the human skull she bought for N4,000 to, she refused to talk.<br/><br /><br/><br /><br/><br /><br/><br />One of the other suspects, Akinrinola, who did not show remorse, was reluctant to talk until the officer who investigated his case showed up. The suspect said, “One man took two of us to the cemetery around 9pm. When we got there, we started exhuming the bodies that still had the gall intact. But, we checked all of those we exhumed, we did not get any gall.” Other questions put to him were not answered.<br/><br /><br/><br /><br/><br /><br/><br />Paraded with the suspected human parts dealers were members of a gang of armed robbers who allegedly specialized in snatching posh cars. The CP hinted that the command, working on a “robust intelligence”, detailed the state Special Anti Robbery Squad (SARS to conduct diligent investigation leading to the recovery of assorted cars either snatched from the owners at gun point or stolen from where they were parked. The posh cars were recovered from different locations including Lagos, Ogun, Oyo, Kwara and Kano states. The vehicles included one unregistered black Toyota Corolla car,one Honda Accord saloon car, one wine Ford car with Reg.No. KSF 342 CY, two Honda Accord cars, with Reg. No. EPE 814 CD and ABJ 777 AY.<br/><br /><br/><br /><br/><br /><br/><br />About 24 vehicles, 63 motorcycles, NITEL cables, among others, were allegedly recovered.<br/><br /><br/><br />The command also recovered about 3,000 rounds of live ammunition.
