Dokpesi in fresh trouble over ‘N8bn FG payment’

Fresh charges might be filed against Raymond Dokpesi, founder of Daar Communication, in the days ahead, as the federal government is investigating an allegation of N8.4billion which he allegedly collected for airing the FIFA U-17 World Cup hosted by Nigeria in 2012. Rotimi Jacobs, counsel of the federal government, revealed this at a federal high court in Abuja on Thursday during the hearing of the bail application sought by Dokpesi, who is currently in the custody of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC). Jacobs said that although Dokpesi claimed that FIFA granted his company the airing, the federal government was not a party to the contract. “Here is a man, who in 2012, collected over N8 billion for the contract for airing of the Under-17 World Cup organised by FIFA,” Jacob had said. “Nigeria was not part of the contract agreement with FIFA, yet, this applicant collected the huge sum from the treasury of this country. “Again, let me say here that Nigeria is bleeding and it is the duty of everybody, including judges in court, to ensure that we fight and put an end to corrupt tendencies in this country.” Mike Ozekhome, Dokpesi’s lawyer faulted the argument of Jacobs, seeking that the judge grants his client bail on self-recognition. Ozekhome ruled out the possibility of Dokpesi jumping bail on the grounds that his family members are based in the country and he also has businesses in Nigeria. He said his client was due to go abroad for medical check-up. In his ruling, Gabriel Kolawole, the judge, ordered that Dokpesi should remain in detention till Monday. The EFCC has arraigned Dokpesi on a six-count charge of alleged corruption and money laundering.

How My Daughter Seduced Me To Have Sex With Her – John Awah

“I became attracted to my daughter, when I saw her. And I told her I wanted to show her true love… Actually, she was the person that started it by always changing her cloths in front of me and this attracted me” – Says John Awah, who claimed that the multiple rounds of sex he had with his daughter was ‘consensual’ It sounds bizarre, untrue, and squeamish, but it’s the whole truth. Yes, it actually took place in Nigeria, Lagos, a city where everything seems possible. When Chinyere, 18, decided to leave her mother in Abia State and pay her father, John Awah, a visit in Lagos, she must have been longing for a tender loving care, which fathers give their children. But she surely did not bargain for what she eventually ended up with – steamy sex sessions with her father. Upon her arrival, her father was shocked to his bone marrow that his daughter who left him when she was a year old, had suddenly grown to a full girl, and he suddenly fell in love with her. Awah said: “I became attracted ...

VIDEO: Boyfriend Leaks Sex-Tape Made With UNILAG Babe

This just came in to our mailbox..  Anonymous source says: Good day 411vibes and nice blog, I want to share this video with you guys so as to make girls know or realise that things they do in their boyfriend’s room just to please them can backfire some time soon and I mean when the boy is tired of seeing the same face every time. The girl is doing a Diploma programme in University of Lagos. (Unilag). The boy happens to be a friend to my cousin and after he shared the video with his friends, they kept doing same. Tagging the girl as a slut (someone he has been with for close to a year already) can you imagine how callous some guys can be?.  Please do share this though I know it in’t right but still  I hope this make some girls who see the video change their mind about doing such stupid acts like this. And yes I am a female too and it hurts to see things like this. This is a odd world.. Click the link below to watch: http://www.411vibes.com/wp-content/uploads/2...
