    He was obsessed. And Ummita paid the ultimate price.
    Sep 29 2022

    On Friday, 16th September 2022, the Kano state Police Command arrested a Chinese National, Geng Quarong, for allegedly stabbing Ummukulsum Sani Buhari to death in her family home for refusing to marry him.  In this episode, we review the phases of obsessive love and how it can turn into violence. Oftentimes, there are red flags which we tend to ignore.

  • INEC delists over 1.1 million new voter registrations but it’s not a conspiracy

    INEC delists over 1.1 million new voter registrations but it’s not a conspiracy
    Sep 22 2022

    Two weeks ago, INEC tweeted that 45% of voter registrations, that’s over 1.1 million, which happened within a 6 month period were invalid and would not be included in the voter register for the upcoming general election. Twitter went crazy, everyone’s conspiracy theory antennae went up, and INEC has been on the defensive ever since.

    In this episode, we will try to break down for you how it’s possible to have invalid registrations and why the 45% number is actually consistent with what INEC has reported in the past.

  • INEC wants an Electoral Offences Commission but there are issues with the proposed bill

    INEC wants an Electoral Offences Commission but there are issues with the proposed bill
    Sep 16 2022

    It’s no secret that in Nigeria, electoral offences happen. There’s vote buying, ballot box snatching, bribing of INEC officials, disorderly behavior at a political meeting, illegal voting, threatening a person with violence…these and so much more have been defined as election offenses in our laws and they come with penalties.

    Last month, as part of a public hearing on the Bill for an Act to Establish the Electoral Offences Commission 2022 and other related matters, INEC made their case for why we need a separate commission to investigate, arrest, and prosecute election offenders.

    We analyze the bill and identify significant gaps that may make the bill ineffective at best, or at worst, a political tool.

  • Ochanya Told Her Story (but it wasn’t enough for a conviction on rape)

    Ochanya Told Her Story (but it wasn’t enough for a conviction on rape)
    Sep 1 2022
    In August 2018, 13-year-old Ochanya was interviewed on camera by journalists and she alleged that she was repeatedly raped by her uncle, Andrew Ogbuja, and his son, Victor Ogbuja.    Ochanya was diagnosed with Vesico-Vaginal Fistula (VVF) and on Wednesday, the 17th of October 2018, she died. Before she died, Ochanya was leaking urine and feces as a result of damage she suffered to her vagina and rectum allegedly at the hands of her cousin Victor Ogbuja and his father, Andrew Ogbuja.   Fast forward to April, 2022 and Ochanya’s uncle, Andrew Ogbuja, was acquitted by the State High Court in Makurdi. The court ruled that there was no sufficient corroborating evidence to convict him and that Ochanya was not present to tell her story.    Why didn’t Ochanya’s videotaped interview with the journalists count? What kind of  corroborating evidence does the court need for a rape allegation? Does the accused person have to be caught in the act? Do they have to be subjected to a medical examination? What if they confess - does that count as corroborating evidence?   In this episode, we try to find out.     Special thank you to John Ameh Ogbanje and Barrister Amina Umar Hussain who took time to speak to us.  ———————————————   This episode was produced by Anthonieta Kalunta, Uche Mbah, Dominic Tabakaji and Sam Tabakaji.   Special thanks to Mariam Mohammed.   Executive producer Rahmat Muhammad.   Copyright (c) 2022 Triple-E Media Productions.
