Man drinks insecticide as MMM ‘crashes’ two weeks to wedding

Man drinks insecticide over MMM
A man has attempted to commit suicide in Benue State by ingesting insecticide after Mavrodi Mondial Moneybox froze accounts of participants in the Ponzi scheme, two weeks to his wedding.
The development which has led to panic among millions in the country hit the man, identified as Adakole, hard as he had reportedly invested N300,000 meant for his wedding in the scheme.
Realising that not only was his investment and 30 per cent interest unlikely to accrue to him before the wedding, but he risked losing everything, he opted to take his life and consumed insecticide.

SPLENSIZY quoted a friend of the MMM victim as saying he is battling for his life at a clinic in Otukpo where the incident occurred.
The friend, who said Adakole had called him to confirm if it was true that the scheme had “crashed” before attempting to take his life, also told Daily Post that he had contacted the fiancée who resided in Abuja.

MMM had on Tuesday announced that it was freezing accounts for one month, a move seen by many as indicating that the scheme had crashed as long expected.

Biafra: I will not be tried in secret – Nnamdi Kanu shouts at Justice Nyako


Nnamdi Kanu6
The leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, on Tuesday caused a mild drama at an Abuja Federal High Court as he shouted at the judge handling his case, Justice Binta Nyako that he will not be tried in private.
Kanu, alongside Chidiebere Onwudiwe, Benjamin Madubugwu and David Nwawuisi, are facing trial for an 11 count charge bordering on terrorism, treasonable felony and publication of defamatory matter.
Shortly after Justice Nyako ruled that witnesses in the ongoing trial of Kanu would be allowed to testify behind a screen, an angry Kanu, who was in the dock shouted, “I will not be tried in secret.”
The trial judge said “It is in law that criminal trials be conducted in open court, but, however, it is not strange that some circumstances can warrant the concealing of witnesses.
“I will want all of you to choose a date for us to practice how the screening will be conducted, so that you will not be taken unaware on the process.”
But Kanu who snapped back at the judge said, “I will not be tried in the secret, this is not a Sharia court, I must be tried in an open court.
“Buhari went public and he accused me in public, now you he wants to try me secretly, I will not accept that.
“He (President Buhari) has sent his sister from Kastina state (referring to the judge) to try me, he should learn to guard his utterances.”

Dr. Amir – Samankwue feat. Harrysong & Timaya


Five Star Music in-house multi talented music producer Dr. Amir is out with a new joint.
This one is a follow up to his previously released “Wigili” single which featured label mate Skibbi and former label mate Harrysong.
This new one is titled “Samankwue” and features Alter Plate boss Harrysong as well as dance-hall/reggae singer, Timaya.
Apparently if there is any bad blood between Harrysong and Five Star Music management, it has not affected his relationship with the DA Records beatsmisth, or maybe this was already done before the reggae blues crooner left the label.
Anyway, Samankwue is a great tune and you’ll love it.
Cop the single below and share your thoughts with us.
