Chanchangi Airline’s workers protest unpaid salaries
About
53 staff members of Chanchangi Airlines have dragged the airline to the
Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) over their unpaid salary arrears of
about 36 months.
The
workers who alleged that the unpaid salaries have accrued since 2010, when the
carrier advised them to embark on compulsory leave, yesterday took the matter
to the regulatory authority after staging peaceful protests at the airline’s
counter at MMA2 Terminal and then to the headquarters of the authority.
The
workers said they were asked to stay off work since 2010, when the airline
started having operational challenges.
The
Director of Human Resources, Mr. Austin Amadi Ifeanyi, and Director of Consumer
Protection, Alhaji Adamu Abdulahi, who received the aggrieved workers on behalf
of the authority, assured them that the NCAA would look into their grievances
and ensure that the airline did the right by paying them the arrears of their
salaries.
JAMB clears doubt on 2013 UTME results
The
Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) yesterday reacted to the 192
complaints received from candidates, who sat for the 2013 Unified Tertiary
Matriculation Examination (UTME).
The
Registrar, Prof. Dibu Ojerinde, at a meeting in Abuja with some of the
candidates, who filed the complaints, said it was imperative to clear the doubt
of the public about the UTME.
Ojerinde
said there was an open complaint from the media, which amounted to a threat to
the integrity of the organisation.
He
said of the 192 candidates, who filed their complaints, 132 requested that
their examination scripts be remarked, while 63 requested to see their
examination scripts.
Said
he: “We are sure of what they scored, we are sure of the situation and we are
sure of the true position of things, even with those who claimed that we did
not release their results.
“But
in the final analysis, you can see that they did not shade their subjects
correctly. How can we release a result that is not known to us?
“That
was why we told the candidates to come on June 10 to see their papers and here
we are, together with the complainants.

Pregnant mother died after Trainee Surgeons took out her ovary instead of her appendix
The
devastated husband of a young mother who died weeks after two trainee surgeons
mistakenly took out an ovary instead of her appendix said today he had been
“revolted” by their NHS experience.
Maria
De Jesus, from Dagenham, was heavily pregnant when she developed pains in her
stomach and was admitted to Queen’s Hospital, Romford.
Today
her husband, Adelino De Jesus, 53, described the “litany of errors” which lead to
her tragic death less than four weeks later on 11 November 2011.
He
said: “She went to hospital with stomach pains and we were told she needed to
have her appendix out. She had the operation, and left hospital eight days
later, but the pain continued. We wouldn’t have ever imagined what they had
done.”
Last
week an inquest heard that tests carried out on the removed tissue revealed
that it was one of her ovaries, not her appendix, on October 31.
But
doctors at the hospital only realised the mistake on November 9, two days after
when Mrs De Jesus, 32, was readmitted to the hospital and the day she
miscarried.

Unilag students protest high cost of living
Students
of the University of Lagos are protesting the high cost of living on campus.
According
to reports the peaceful protest started yesterday, as the students bemoaned the
high cost of food and other basic items on campus, saying it is disheartening
that students are paying higher for food and other consumables than their
prices outside campus. The cost of making photocopies is also said to be too
expensive for an academic environment.
According
to a citizen reporter who seeks anonymity,”Imagine, we students are buying sachet water at N10 per sachet,
Indomie super pack sold for N60 in town is N70 here, same as Indomie hungry man
size, which is N100 everywhere except in my school where it goes for N110. Also
soft drinks in plastic bottles such as Viju,Fanta,Pepsi are sold for N120 per
bottle instead of its supposed retail price of N100.
Abacha’s Daughter, Gumsu Causes Twitter Debate
Daughter
of the late military dictator, Gen. Sani Abacha, Gumsu, took to twitter at 3:16am two days ago to pay tribute to her father, saying, “I miss you so much.”
“May
Allah grant my father Aljanna Firdaus. I miss you so much. Fifteen years already.Allah
ya jikan ka da rhama ‘Baba,’” she stated in a tweet.
A
few hours after Gumsu posted the tweet, former Minister of Aviation, Femi
Fani-Kayode, replied her, saying, “Ameen.” Gumsu replied his tweet, saying,
“Thank you,’’ while Fani-Kayode responded, “My pleasure, dear.’’
Fani-Kayode’s
gesture confused his followers causing them to question if he benefited from
the Abacha regime. Once it his tweets began to raise questions, Fani-Kayode
swiftly dissociated himself from the Abacha regime. He said, “Of course not. I
was not pro-Abacha government. I was one of those who fought his government.”

Four Teenagers Rape Girl, Threaten to Kill Her
The
Lagos State Police Command has arrested four boys for allegedly raping a
14-year-old girl in the Mile 12 area of the state.
Punch
Metro learnt that the suspects, Wale Badejo, Jubril Yusuf, Olusanya Remi and
Wale Oluwafemi, who are between the ages 18 and 19, allegedly abducted the
victim on her way to school and took turns raping her.
According
to the police, the suspects held the victim for over seven hours and threatened
to kill her if she told anybody about what happened to her.
A
member of the victim’s family, who craved anonymity, said the incident occurred
on May 30, 2013.
She
said, “She (the victim) told us that one of the suspects, who also lived in the
area, had been making sexual advances to her for sometime but she always
rebuffed him. The boy (Oluwafemi) and her friends then vowed to deal with her,
calling her a proud person.
“She
schools at Maryland and because of the distance of the school from home, she
leaves home around 6:30am every day.
“On
the day of the incident, the boys came on two motorcycles, grabbed her and took
her to Oluwafemi’s house at Agiliti.
“The
boys blindfolded her and stuffed her mouth with cloth. The boys then took
pictures of the barbaric act and made a video recording which they said they
would upload on Facebook. The boys further threatened to kill her if she told
anybody about what had happened.”
Punch
Metro learnt that when the victim returned home, she did not inform her parents
about what had transpired for fear of being killed.
PDP compels employees to take oath of secrecy
The
Peoples Democratic Party has administered an oath of secrecy to its members of
staff as part of its efforts to control the flow of information in and outside
the party.
The
compulsory oath, which took many of the workers by surprise, was supervised on
Thursday by the Acting National Secretary of the party, Chief Solomon Onwe.
Some
of the workers, who spoke with our correspondent on Sunday, complained about
the oath, which they said was aimed at victimising perceived enemies by some
leaders of the party.
They
said that some members of the National Working Committee of the PDP were not
happy with them and had been doing everything possible to replace them with
their loyalists.
The
workers claimed that Onwe told them that anyone suspected to be fraternising
with journalists might be summarily dismissed if the party found out that a
piece of information was leaked by any of them.
One
of the workers said, “On Thursday, we swore to an oath of secrecy which the
party said was meant to control the flow of information at its secretariat.
Justin Bieber’s Bodyguard Under Investigation for Battery
Yet
another member of Justin Bieber's entourage has landed in hot water again.
One
of the pop singer's bodyguards is under investigation for misdemeanor battery
against a person who was trying to take a picture of Bieber, 19, at a Hollywood
hookah lounge, TMZ reports.
According
to the website, when the photographer (not a professional or paparazzo)
attempted to snap Bieber's picture, one of the singer's bodyguards stepped in,
and a dust-up ensued. Police were called to the scene, but by the time they
arrived, Bieber and his group had left.
Bieber
is not a target in this investigation, but it's just the latest in a series of
recent incidents involving him or his entourage bristling at unauthorized
photographs taken of the singer. In April, the singer and his crew were banned
from a Vienna nightclub after managers claim that his bodyguards smashed
cameras, destroyed cell phones and groped some of the young female fans
present.
Wedding Cancelled in Ekiti as Bride refuses to show up
A
bride refused to show up at her wedding at the Cathedral Church of Emmanuel,
Okesa, Ado-Ekiti, on Saturday resulting in the cancellation of the wedding.
Our
correspondent learnt that the groom, who is from Ifaki-Ekiti in Ido-Osi Local
Government Area of the state, was already in the church but waited in vain for
the arrival of his bride.
Her
whereabouts were unknown hours after the service had started.
The
failure of the bride to show up, it was gathered, forced the clerics to cancel
the wedding and invited guests reportedly left one after the other, when it
dawned on them that the ceremony would no longer hold.
The
Dean of the Cathedral, Very Reverend, F.O Bankole, when contacted on the
telephone confirmed the incident to our correspondent.
He
said, “It is true that a wedding which was planned to hold in the church today
was cancelled. The bride did not show up.”
Bankole
said he did not know why the bride failed to showed up, but added that the
couple had been “having some issues since they started courting.”

multiple award winner relives the experience of stardom and adulthood
Child stars face a lot of
pressures while growing up, did you experience such?
I
did but the winning factor for me was the close relationship I had with God and
my family. I did not shut my loved ones
out of my life. They are the ones who can tell me the truth about anything, no
matter how big it is. I have a good relationship with my parents and I talk to
them about everything. My mother, especially, was a pillar of strength for me
and I was able to tell her a lot of things and she helped me through all the
changes. I am a very spiritual being and I pray a lot.
How did you handle the
superstar treatment in school?
The
early stages of the job were very harsh on me. I had friends who just had
issues with my person, not necessarily because I did anything wrong but because
they felt that I was going around with a larger than life image. I do not think
that was the situation but because I am out there, everybody wants to judge me
based on what they don’t even know. I
thank God for my parents and my siblings who helped and supported me all the
way. I made very good friends
