Four Bloggers Re-Arraigned for Cyberstalking GTCO CEO

The police have re-arraigned four bloggers, Precious Eze, Olawale Rotimi, Rowland Olonishuwa, and Seun Odunlami, on new charges at the Federal High Court in Lagos. The bloggers are accused of cyberstalking and spreading false information against Guaranty Trust Holding Company (GTCO) through various social media platforms.

The defendants face a 10-count charge, including conspiracy, cyberstalking, publishing false and misleading information, extortion, threats, and causing a decline in GTCO’s shares and market value. They were previously arraigned on September 27, 2024, on charges of cyberstalking and false publications aimed at insulting GTCO’s CEO, Segun Agbaje.

After their pleas, Justice Ayokunle Faji ordered their remand at the Correctional Center. The new charges allege that the bloggers knowingly spread false and misleading claims about GTCO, its management, the Central Bank of Nigeria, and the wider banking system, intending to cause disorder and extort the company by damaging its reputation.

Hardship: Group Urges Tinubu, Wealthy Nigerians to Address Worsening Hunger Crisis

The Atum Humanitarian and Charitable Initiative has urged President Bola Tinubu's administration to take swift action to ease the growing hardship in the country. In a statement on Sunday, the organization’s Executive Chairman, Honourable Ismaila Yusuf Atus, highlighted how the rising cost of fuel has drastically weakened citizens' purchasing power.

Atus called for immediate government intervention to alleviate the suffering, noting that existing efforts have been inadequate. He also appealed to NGOs, business leaders, and wealthy individuals to unite and support struggling communities.

“The hunger is severe, and rising fuel prices have worsened the situation. Many can no longer afford basic necessities,” the statement read. “While we recognize the government's efforts, more must be done to reduce the hardships people are facing."

Atus also called on wealthy Nigerians to step up during this critical time, urging them to share their resources and support those in need, rather than hoarding wealth. Additionally, the Atum Initiative announced plans to raise N500 million to assist two million impoverished Nigerians.

This appeal follows the recent increase in petrol prices by the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) to N1,030 per litre, exacerbating the country’s economic challenges.

Troost-Ekong Condemns Libyan Authorities After ‘Disgraceful’ Airport Incident

Super Eagles captain William Troost-Ekong has condemned the treatment of the Nigerian national team after they were stranded for over 12 hours at Al Abraq Airport in Libya. The team, en route to Benghazi for their 2025 AFCON qualifier, was redirected to the abandoned airport without explanation.

In a series of tweets, Troost-Ekong called the situation "disgraceful" and accused Libyan authorities of playing "mind games." The team had no access to food, drink, or phone connections, while the airport gates were locked. He also revealed that the Tunisian pilot, who managed the unexpected diversion, was denied hotel accommodation, forcing the Nigerian crew to sleep on the plane.

The Confederation of African Football has yet to comment on the situation.

Two Reportedly Killed in Multiple Vehicle Collision in Lagos

Two people lost their lives in a multiple-vehicle collision at the Second Rainbow Bus Stop along the Oshodi-Apapa Expressway in Lagos. According to a statement from the Lagos State Emergency Management Agency (LASEMA), signed by its Permanent Secretary, Dr. Olufemi Oke-Osanyintolu, the agency received a distress call and promptly activated its emergency response team.

The Eagle response team arrived at the scene around 5:52 PM on Sunday, where they found a serious accident involving four vehicles: a MAN truck (registration number KTU 793 YE) loaded with groundnut oil, a Honda Accord (registration number KTU 223 GH), and two commercial buses.

Reports from the scene indicated that the MAN truck experienced a mechanical failure at high speed, causing the driver to lose control and crash into the other vehicles. Tragically, two adult males died as a result, while several others sustained injuries and were treated by the Lagos State Ambulance Service (LASAMBUS).

The statement also noted that all four vehicles involved suffered significant damage. Thanks to a coordinated effort by first responders, the scene was swiftly cleared. The damaged vehicles were towed to Festac Police Station, and the bodies of the deceased were handed over to police officers at the scene before being taken to the mortuary.
