Commotion As Oniraniken, Oba Adewale Adeniji Stockpiles Arms For Land Grabbers — Invades, Unleashes Mayhem On Ogun Community

Commotion As Oniraniken, Oba Adewale Adeniji Stockpiles Arms For Land Grabbers – Invades, Unleashes Mayhem On Ogun Community

The residents of Okerala Odofin, Okelara Apena Seriki village, Okerala Tarogun village, IpaVillage, Ososa Village, Simawa in area of Sagamu, Ogun State are currently living in fear over series of attacks by unknown gunmen disguised as land grabbers which reportedly have backings of the traditional ruler, Oniraniken Of Iraniken, Oba Adewale Adeniji.

It would be recalled that Family members of the Oniraniken, Sagamu, Ogun State, have disagreed with the traditional ruler over his alleged claim that a disputed farmland around Okerala, Simawa area of Sagamu, measuring 4,000 hectares, was an inheritance from his forebears.

While some residents have fled the areas for safety, others who have no place to go were forced to live in fear.

However, a source has confirmed to our reporter that the monarch takes pleasure in unleashing mayhem on these communities simply because of a bogus court verdict in his possession.

“The usual way of land grabbers hoax is to divide themselves into two; to represent two families in court, and they always attend every court proceeding without the consent or knowledge of the main family they took to court; whereas the inhabitants of those areas he said he got judgment were not even informed about any court case”. This is how Oniraniken, Oba Adewale Adeniji and his cohorts got their supposed 1,000 hectares of land, but duplicitously translated the verdict to be 4,000 hectares; and then started confiscating other people’s land”.

‘In quest for justice, Indigenes of the community staged a peaceful protest to the Governor’s Office, also to Akarigbo of Remo and some other significant quarters.’

Oniraniken of Iraniken, Oba Adewale Adeniji Resorted To Self-Help:

The recent Judicial Staff Association of Nigeria (JUSUN) closure and court embarking on strike caused a delay in various positive actions.

Our source said: “The court ambiguity gave the monarch a fortuitous audacity to take laws into his own hands. He started giving some mobsters weaponries and other dangerous objects to terrorize and sack the people from their farmland. Using land grabbers to forcefully take over about 4,000 hectares of farmland belonging to 14 Makun communities”.

When our reporter visited the region, some of the residents shared their ugly experiences in the hands of the hoodlums even as they made it clear that their lives is no longer safe as kidnappings, robberies and other heinous attacks are main areas of focus for these criminals just to force them vacate the community belonging to them.

Divine Intervention:

On receiving an intelligence report, special strike force from the office of Inspector General of Police came to rescue and apprehended three of the gunmen who allegedly took part in the ill-fated land grabbing exercise at Oke Rala village, Simawa area of Sagamu, Ogun state.

The Police force special squad said: “It received distress calls from residents of Shimawa over killings, kidnapping, banditry and armed robbery which made them swing into action. During the operation, One locally-made pistol, two caliber pistols, several live cartridges and expended cartridges were recovered from the land grabbers while others are at large”.

The three suspects arrested are Afeez Sunday; 41yrs old “m” of Ikorodu LGA, Surajudeem Isiaka; 33yrs old “m” of Ikorodu, and one Muranikeji Ogunkeye; 32yrs old “m” of Lagos state. They have since on Thursday whisked away to Abuja by the special force for questioning. Their alleged sponsor, Oba Adewale Adeniji was also declared wanted by the Police force after searching his palace but noticed the troublemaker had absconded.

Why top Nigerian pastors, ministers hated T.B Joshua unto death – Pastor Giwa

Senior Pastor of Awaiting The Second Coming Of Christ Ministry, Adewale Giwa, has provided insight as to why top pastors in Nigeria never liked the senior prophet of the Synagogue Church of All Nations, SCOAN, Temitope Balogun Joshua, aka, T.B Joshua.

T.B Joshua died on June 5, 2021 and was laid to rest at his church on Friday. The funeral service saw the presence of top politicians, entertainers, businessmen, and women from all over the world

However, top ‘men of God’ in the country totally shunned the funeral service, the same way none of them condoled with his family or SCOAN when he passed on.

But in a statement to DAILY POST on Saturday, Pastor Giwa suggested that these pastors may have hated Joshua because he refused to join their league.

When he was alive, Prophet TB Joshua was surrounded by friends than enemies. Even in death, the prophet still had more friends than enemies. Those celebrating him after death are more than those who are criticizing him. He had come, seen, and conquered.

He had money to buy more than 10 private jets, but he never bought one. Prophet Joshua could afford to build private universities across Nigeria and the world, but he didn’t have one.

They hated him because he refused to join their caucuses or leagues. Maybe if he had succumbed and did what they wanted him to do, they would have honored him as one of them.

A man who never had a spiritual father(s), but suddenly rose to fame. He never thought of opening another branch of his church in America, London or anywhere in the world aside the one at Ikotun Egbe in Lagos, Nigeria. TB Joshua had a humble and submissive heart.

”God doesn’t look at the outward appearance but looks at the heart. No matter how powerful and strong you are, death is inevitable. If God is for you, who can be against you?

”The media only cares about the so-called top men of God who didn’t send their greetings or attended the burial ceremony. Even the Jews, up till now still don’t believe in Jesus Christ.

”Also, in Nazareth where Jesus grew up, they refused to believe in his teaching because they considered him one of them, therefore without the authority to preach to them. Are you God who sees the innermost thoughts, feelings, or secrets of others?

”First, take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye. Whatever you have here on earth won’t go with you after death. We came with nothing and go with nothing.”

Shocking! TB Joshua’s Disciple, Prophet Chris Exposes His Master’s Secret

One of the disciples of the late founder of Synagogue Church of All Nation, Prophet T B Joshua, Prophet Chris, on Friday revealed the secret of his master.

Prophet Chris while preaching at the church prior to the interment service of the televangelist, said the miracles performed by the cleric was due to his relationship with the supreme God.

He further stated that the founder of SCOAN drew his power from his love for God and humanity.

Chris added that his master was never moved by the statement of his critics who questioned the source of his power.

He said, “The secret of Prophet TB Joshua’s ministry in front of this altar is his lifestyle behind the altar.”

“The remarkable results we all see on Emmanuel TV effortless healing, instant deliverance, accurate prophecy, profound teaching, spontaneous miracles is just an overflow of his relationship with God. In a generation so full of fake things, Prophet TB Joshua was the real deal!”

Prophet Chris further said, “He did not see any fight as a personal challenge but one against his God.”

“He left every battle for God and let his future answer the questions.”

“He gave himself to prayer and refused to be offended.”

“He was accessible but untouchable – tested by the fire of life and proven by the test of time! His consistency testified to his authenticity! #TBJoshuaLegacy”.

FINALLY OKIKI BRIGHT WINS AS COURT FINES GLO, AIRTEL, 9MOBILE OTHER OVER COPYRIGHT

By Adeyemi Obadimu

A Federal High Court in Lagos on 9th July, 2021 fined some telecommunication giants; 9mobile, Airtel, Globacom and others sum of N2 million over copyright infringement of Okiki Bright musical work Gbagbe Boshe Sele.

Justice Nicholas Oweibo delivered judgment in suit number :FHC/L/CS/1776/2017 in favour of Nigerian hip hop Artiste, Raji Mutiu Okiki popularly called Okiki Bright held that 9mobile, Airtel, Globacom and other infringed on the copyright of Okiki Bright for using his musical work titled Gbagbe Boshe Shele as caller tune for commercial exploit without his consent and authorisation.

The court resolved that Okiki Bright and Oritsefemi are not co-owners of the song “Gba gbe boshe sele” saying featuring Oritsefemi in a song does not make Oritsafemi a co-owner of the said song.

The Plaintiff in his suit filed by his counsel, Alayo Akanbi prayed the court to declare him as the exclusive owner and original composer of the musical work titled Gbage Boshe Sele, and that unauthorised use of his song as caller tune by the telecommunications for commercial exploit without his authority amounts to infringement on his copyright to the musical work.

Okiki Bright equally asked for monetary damages cumulatively against the defendants for infringing on his intellectual property.

In his statement of claim, the plaintiff averred that he paid the star Artiste, Oritsefemi Majemite Ekele to feature in his song in order to get more acceptability and that he was still working on promoting his song, when people drew his attention to the fact that his song was now on caller tunes of some telecommunications companies.

Justice Oweibo awarded general and exemplary damages in the sum of N2 million and cost of N500, 000 each against the telecommunication companies and in favour of the Plaintiff.

While speaking with counsel to Okiki Bright, Alayo Akanbi who commended the judge for a well researched and sound judgment and said that the judgment will go long way to discourage intellectual property theft and wished that court should have awarded greater punitive damages against the Defendants as deterrent.

On his part, Okiki Bright said the judge has passed the judgment in his favour but he was surprise about the award of damages in the meager sum of N2 million and that the amount cannot cater for his expenses since 2017 when the case started. In his words, ‘I am going to consult my lawyer my next of action’.

JOURNALIST WHO ESCAPED FROM KIDNAPPERS’ DEN, OLUWOL E OBAFEMI NARRATES HIS EXPERIENCE

A freelance journalist, Oluwole Obafemi has regained his freedom from his captors as he managed to escape from the camp of kidnappers who picked him along seven others on Benin/Ore Expressway, Society Gazette can report.

Obafemi and other passengers of a vehicle that was Ondo State bound were unfortunate to have been kidnapped on dreaded Benin/Ore expressway. The incident happened on 25th June, 2021. Obafemi was however lucky to have seen an escape route after five days in the kidnappers den.

Oabafemi, a former staff of popular media organization, MITV/Star Fm, narrated his ordeal in the hands of his captors whom he said were young Fulani men.

“I was going to Akure in Ondo state and I boarded the Bus from Ojota. The journey had been smooth until we got to Benin/Ore road. The driver noticed a barrier on the road and slowed down, and before we knew it, some armed men numbering about five jumped out from the bush. They collected all our valuables and picked eight of us from the Bus and marched us into the bush.” Obafemi explained.

He narrated to Society Gazette the young Fulani boys were basically out to make money. He however said they kidnappers didn’t ask them to contact their families until following day, after they had been made to walk long miles away from point of abduction.

“Our abductors were young Fulani men and they were out to make money. From the point we were abducted, we were made to walk several miles so as to beat security operatives who might been on their trail. It was in the afternoon of the following day that we were properly settled. The worst experience was the torture they meted on us so we could put pressure on our families members to pay the demanded ransom on time.”

Obafemi said he was unlucky to have got tortured than others because his family were only begging the kidnappers to let go of him and that they had no money to pay.

“My case was a peculiar one because I was seriously beaten because my family could not raise 10million naira they were demanding or even less. Two of us had were released three days after, when their families paid their ransom. They could not pay the demanded amount but they bargained and paid what they had. I was constantly getting beaten because my family could not raise the money. I was however lucky on the fifth day when the abductors led other abductees to go and drink from a stream in the bush. They considered me too weak to walk out of beaten I had received, so while they were away, I mustered the strength I could and escaped. I walked for hours before I got to a settlement where the dwellers assisted me to locate the main road.” Obafemi said.

The lucky freelance photo/camera journalist who travels around the country to source for materials for his job urged the government to pay attention to the issue of kidnapping because of the alarming rate it is assuming.

It is on record that thousands have been victims of kidnappers around the country and paid huge ransom for their freedom. Many have equally been unlucky not to return. Some die as a result of torture, long trek, while some were killed by their abductors for not been able to pay up ransom. In the same way, many have not recovered from encounter of such horrific experience.
