Nigerian Woman Becomes 1ST African NYPD Policc Inspector In New York

A Nigerian woman-based in New York has made her country of birth very proud for becoming the first African to be promoted to the rank of a police inspector in the history of the New York Police Department, NYPD.

The deputy Police inspector identified as Olufunmilola F Obe was promoted to the rank of an inspector at NYPD headquarter in Manhattan this past Friday, the 18th of December 2015.

When her name was announced as the new NYPD police inspector, there was a loud roar of approval from the audience of many Nigerians and African leaders in New York area, who had been invited to witness the ceremony.

Mrs Obe started her career in 1992 as a Police Cadet. She became a police officer in February 94. She was promoted to Sergeant in December 2000.

In July 2005, she became a Lieutenant, in 2008, she became a Captain and in June 2012 she became a Deputy Inspector and finally in December 2015, she was promoted to an Inspector.

Olufunmilola Obe bagged a Bsc in Computer Science from City College in New York. She did her Master in Public Administration at Marist College. In 2014, she graduated from the Police Management Institute at Columbia University.

Inspector Obe is happily married to Peter Obe since 1996. The couple has 3 children.

Her secret is dedication to service, quality education and good interpersonal skills. Hope our people can tap into that.

Congrats to her and others we are yet to hear about.

Nigerian Doctor Proposes to Wife’s Beauty Queen Friend 4 Months after Her Death (Photos)

An Abuja based medical doctor, Dr Bright Echefu has sparked outrage online after he proposed to his late wife’s friend, former Queen Of Aso Nigeria, Florence Esu and she accepted, just four months after his wife’s death.

Dr Bright Echefu is the CEO of Bricke & Athens which owns Africa Health Television, AHTV, a 24-hour all-health channel. He had lost his wife, Cindy Nzeribe, in July, 2015, after a brief illness. Cindy
was pregnant with their 3rd child when she died. She was buried in August. See her photos:

Not giving a thought about waiting for a while before finding love again, Dr Echefu went ahead last Saturday and proposed to Cindy’s friend and his employee, former Queen Of Aso Nigeria, Florence Esu, who gladly said yes!

What was supposed to be their good news has now turned to horror as Nigerians have taken their case to court of public opinion. The couple are currently being slammed on Instagram and Facebook right, left and centre. Hoe could they, though? This is heartbreaking!

In his defense, Dr Echefu said his late wife Cindy will approve of his decision to engage HER FRIEND just FOUR MONTHS after her death. That what he did was in their kids’ best interest. Howwww????

Read President Buhari's Christmas message to Nigerians

Read the president's Christmas message below.. 

I felicitate with all Nigerians, especially our Christian brothers and sisters, on the joyous occasion of this year’s Christmas. On this occasion of the commemoration of the birth of Jesus Christ, let us all rededicate ourselves to the virtues of peace, love, honesty, justice, equity, piety, humility and service to others which he taught. 

There can be no doubt that a greater manifestation of these virtues and ideals in our lives will immensely help us to become a more united, peaceful, secure and progressive nation.

Let us also reach out in love and compassion to fellow Nigerians who are in distress at this period of our nation’s history.

I particularly urge you all to remember victims of terrorism and insurgency in the country, especially Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs).

The Federal Government will continue to collaborate with state governments and other stakeholders to ease the harsh conditions in IDP camps, while the ultimate objective remains to quickly put an end to insurgency and return the IDPs to their homes.

We must never again allow any group to hold the nation to ransom under whatever guise.

Let us also not allow current socio-economic and security challenges to dampen our expectations for a better Nigeria.

This administration has taken a number of measures to restore hope to our people. The 2016 Budget defines our commitment to giving Nigeria a new lease of life.

Our change slogan is not a campaign gimmick but a promise that must be kept. We are determined to bring about tangible changes in the lives of our people.

In this regard, efforts will be intensified to recover stolen funds, block revenue leakages and enthrone due process, transparency and accountability.

Public office is a public trust that must be held to the highest ethical standards.

I wish all Nigerians a Merry Christmas.

Please drive carefully.

Nigerian man banned for 5 yrs from approaching women he doesn't know following sexual assault case

Aniefiok Udo was spared jail term after admitting to a string of sexual assaults on the  London Tube. He pleaded guilty to three counts of sexual assault on December 14. He was handed a 16-week suspended sentence and banned for five years from approaching any woman he does not know while using public transport.

49-year-old Udo, from Ilford, assaulted the same 23-year-old woman on two separate occasions while travelling on the Central Line last year. 

He approached her and began touching her after boarding trains at Hainault station at about 9pm on both occasions, Snaresbrook Crown Court heard.

After she reported the incidents to police in January, another woman also came forward to say she had been assaulted by the man.

Detective Constable Martin Chapman said:

"No woman should fear using public transport, and we are committed to working with our partners to keep the rail network a safe place.

"I am pleased Udo has been brought before the courts to answer for his disgusting behaviour, and I would like to thank the women involved for reporting his actions to us."
