Winners in the ongoing Mega Millions Promo have continued to express their astonishment and appreciation to Nigeria’s caring mobile network operator, 9mobile for fulfilling its promise of rewarding customers with N1million daily cash prize and other exciting prizes. Some had initially doubted the authenticity of the promo until winners began to emerge nationwide.

One of such was when Mrs. Kolade Aminat Yetunde, an Ilorin-based businesswoman, received a text message and eventually a call from a 9mobile staff that she has won a million naira in the ongoing. According to her, “I thought that it was a scam. So, I informed my husband who put a call through to his friend who works at a 9mobile office in Ilorin. That was when I began to believe that the promo is real. I appreciate 9mobile for this promo”.

Similarly, Mr. Ishak Fatihu Idris from the Kano region was skeptical of the Mega Millions Promo and disregarded the message of his winnings at first. “I have heard terrible stories about scammers, and I have promised myself not to get involved in any shady transaction. But when I heard the promo on radio and other media platforms, I gave it a try and I am so glad that I won a million naira. I am delighted and I will always patronize 9mobile.”

Chief Tony Nnaji who lives and works in Port Harcourt visited his friend when he got a text message from 9mobile that he had won a million naira. But he did not believe. Commenting on the win, he said, “later, I rationalized that it is almost impossible that such promo will be aired on the electronic media without some form of validation. So, I went to the 9mobile experience center to confirm my doubt. I want to appreciate 9mobile for standing solidly with customers in this period of economic crunch”

Within the first month of the promo, customers have won over N29million and over 1392 smartphones across the country. The 9mobile Mega Millions Promo will run through till November 2020. It promises hourly smartphone prizes to customers who recharge a minimum of N200, a N1million win for customers who recharge N1000 or more, while a cumulative recharge of N10000 monthly throughout the duration of the promo will enable one lucky customer to walk away with the grand prize of N10million.

Also, new Customers who join the 9mobile network will receive up to 100% data bonus for all monthly subscription from N1000 – a reward offer that runs for 12 month - in addition to a free 1GB and N500 airtime on first recharge.

Chelsea star footballer, Victor Moses, has made a significant donation to support his former club, Wigan Athletic amid their financial struggles during the pandemic.

 

Wigan were deducted 12 points after going into administration towards the end of the 2019-20 season, which forced them into relegation alongside Hull City and Charlton Athletic.

 

Moses played for the Latics before joining Chelsea in 2012.

 

The club's supporters body has confimed that the former Super Eagles player has made a significant financial contribution to the club that'll stop them from going into extinction.

 

The supporters are aiming to raise £750,000 to support the club this season, and they are now within £100,000 of the target after Moses sent money.

 

 

“Wow – what can we say? When Victor got in touch to say he wanted to help by donating such a substantial amount, I just couldn’t believe what I was hearing – it’s such an incredible gesture,” , the chairperson of Wigan Athletic Supporters' Club, Caroline Molyneux, said.

“Victor wanted to make the donation and remain anonymous but we simply had to make sure he gets the recognition he deserves.

"Victor’s contribution has taken us past £650,000 and to within £100,000 of our next target of £750,000.

“We are so thankful to Victor for his support. He is an excellent footballer, a true role model and someone we always enjoyed watching at the DW Stadium – he will always be welcome back here, even more so now!”

 

Moses, took to his Twitter handle to call for more support to save the future of the 2013 FA Cup winners.

“Wigan Athletic will always have a special place in my heart,” Moses tweeted.

“I have so many incredible memories from my time there and the people of Wigan and everyone associated with the club have always been so good to me and my family. We must do all we can to protect the future of this great club.”

Air Force officer allegedly killed by terrorists in Kaduna (photo)

 Flying officer and Best Graduating Officer at the NAF Special Forces Course, Muhammad Auwal, was allegedly killed by terrorists in Birnin Gwari, Kaduna state, on Saturday, September 5.

Bulawa Bukarti, a Kano-based lawyer, shared the sad news on his Twitter handle.

''Flying Officer Muhammad Auwal is one of the latest gallant men we sadly lost to terrorists. He’s killed yesterday (5 Sep.) on duty at Birnin Gwari. He’s the Best Graduating Officer at the NAF Special Forces Course that held recently in Bauchi.

We’ve lost too many brave and promising men to the insecurity raging in our country. Govt officials and politicians must face this problem head-on. They must channel the huge sums wasted on their extravagant lifestyle to this problem and ensure every Kobo is spent transparently.''

 

 

Two Nigerian law school lecturers accused of telling lawyers not to report sexual assault because it takes two to tango

 Some Twitter users have taken to the platform to accuse two Nigerian law school lecturers of telling lawyers not to report sexual assault because it takes two to tango. 

 

Actress Lolia Etomi who first made the disclosure, alleged that one of the female lecturers went on to blame female students who she accused of "baring their arms and tempting men". 

 

She tweeted; 

 

So one day at the Nigerian Law School, Lagos, 2 senior lecturers- in a hall of over 1000+ students and other lecturers decided to give a speech to all law students- saying that they should not report incidents of rape/sexual assault, because “it takes two to tangle”.

The female lecturer supported the male lecturer, saying “we will not support you because I feel sorry for the men. Some of you ladies, your bare arms distract even me. You women are the ones tempting them. When you paint your nails, wear lipgloss etc., you are luring men.”

The highest institution of legal education in Nigeria, had lecturers telling future lawyers and victims of rape/assault, that it was their fault and not only would they not be supported, they would be punished for reporting their own rapes.

One of these lecturers was involved in a rape scandal last year. There were over 1000 + witnesses. On my, then private twitter account- I posted a simple transcript of what these lecturers told us publicly, verbatim. Nothing more or less.

 

 

Following the reactions her tweets got, Lolia also alleged that she was victimized by lecturers and fellow students after she spoke up against the lecturers' comment. 

 

She added; 

 

This led to law school mentioning my tweets in an assembly, but as I had a different twitter pic/name, they didn’t know who was behind it. They gave a general warning about portraying NLS in a negative light in public. They did not address or denounce the problematic statements.

This man,@nwatonye- Nwachukwu Obi -took it upon himself to send voicenotes to all the law school student group chats, starting a witch-hunt to find & report me to admin, so they would expel me. He told them that if they didn’t scapegoat me, the school would fail everyone.

In the voice note (previous tweet is only one of man), he (@nwatonye) was: 1) a rape apologist 2) Slandered me to the press by reaching out to them to “denounce” verifiably true, witnessed statements due to his paranoia and cowardice. Despite knowing they would be lying.

3) Rallying a mob of students to harass me, both online and in person. 4) Even going as far as to instruct them to harass my friends. 5) Illegally circulating my information- including a picture from my, then-private Twitter account, in order to do so.

The student body president Graham Garrick Nosa John @thegarrick_who is currently studying at @durham_uni @DurhamLawSchool , and @nwatonye, then started harassing my friends, circulating pictures & false info about me. Threatening & blackmailing them to expose & denounce me.

@thegarrick_ and @nwatonye  confidently and publicly verbally abused and insulted me. Threatened & attempted to coerce multiple people. Until they found my student registration number and gave it to the law school administration, all to curry favour with them.

They did all this to support an institution that they believed was so corrupt, that it would MASS FAIL THOUSANDS of students all because of 1 tweet from one student, saying that they said, what they had actually said. Again no one addressed the problematic rape issue.

The law school issued me a query and barred me from writing my exams to become a lawyer until I wrote them an apology letter. I did not. I wrote a letter standing by my words & actions. Luckily, the law school was not competent enough to actually read my letter, so I got off.

Many students mentioned they were surprised to see me at our Call to Bar. Many assumed that I had been expelled. @thegarrick_& @nwatonye spearheaded all this and wanted that outcome. Because they were vindictive, cowardly and selfish sycophants.

I never once attacked them, disrespected them the way they disrespected me or used my wide-reaching family legals connections to hurt them, their education or careers when I could have. It has been 3 years. They never apologised. They thought they got away with it.@thegarrick_ @nwatonye , I hope you’ve enjoyed yourselves. I hope you are proud of yourselves. I hope you’ve been comfortable in your lives. Because I gave you the time & grace to do the right thing, but you were callous. So hi, this isn’t over.

@nwatonyedidn’t care or even give this a second thought for 3 years, after thinking he had successfully lied on me to the press & gotten me expelled. his measly apology from today after I tweeted at him. He claims he even agreed with me at the time. That makes it worse.

This is@nwatonye. What an ironic yearbook quote.

This is @thegarrick_, student body president & corrupt Chief Bully. Now doing a Masters in Law at @durham_uni @DurhamLawSchool, where he has finessed his way into more leadership positions like LLM Class Rep, Open Day Ambassador, PGT Advisory Board Member, Postgrad Ambassador.

@thegarrick_you really integrated into the system well. People like you are the reason it is the way it is and you ought to be deeply ashamed of yourself.

One day, i'll talk about pt 2 of how I was targeted and harassed by a law school lecturer, Mr. Uduemeze, after this incident. How he seized my phone and kept me on campus until midnight and tried to take a photo of my drivers license with personal info, address etc to circulate.

 

 

 

Another Twitter user who reacted to the tweet, gave out the alleged names of the lecturers.
