A Nigerian student, Oluwatobi Olasunkanmi has won the William Charnley Prize for the best First Class in Law at the University of Cambridge, United Kingdom.

The 24 year old Oluwatobi who is the son of the former Minister of Youth Development, Senator Akinlabi Olasunkanmi, happened to be the only student of black descent in the graduating set.

In an official correspondence dated June 26, 2015, addressed to the best First Class Law student, the University's Senior Tutor, Dr Philip Johnson, congratulated the Nigerian lad for the feat.

“Many congratulations on obtaining the best Hughes Hall First Class in your BA in Law. In recognition, the College has awarded you with the William Charnley Prize” said Johnson.

Meanwhile, the father of the award winner, Senator Olasunkanmi, has expressed his joy at the achievement attained by his son, noting that it has not only brought honour to his family but to Nigeria as a whole. “Sincerely speaking, my joy is not only because he is my son but because he has represented Nigeria well by bringing a laurel which has manifested in the best First Class Prize in Law”.

Fct Corp Member’s Take Change To The Street -

Following on the heels of a successful pre elections (March 28 polls) sensitization programme, promoting a violence free election in what could arguably be one of Nigeria’s tensest moments in the political arena where the nation oscillated between uncertainty and obliteration, Olusegun Sidiku, remember him? The young amiable batch ‘B’ corper fondly called “government pickin” continued his mission of giving his best to ensure Nigeria becomes the country of his dreams.

Well, it might interest you to know that unlike his prior solo attempt at this humongous task, more spirited young men and women who bought into the novel idea decided to lend their support to the cause by joining him to impart the much needed positive mental disposition to the trite slogan of “change”. Together with fellow Corps members; Richard Tsado, Evangeline Anumba, Dorothy Yakubu and couple of volunteers, Segun led this congenial band to Kuchingoro – Lugbe axis of the FCT on yet another eventful advocacy visit to just about anyone or group they ran into. Fast becoming a signature style, the spritely bunch wore customized white vests with inscriptions such as “preach change, live change” and “be the change you want to see”.

The essence of the campaign was to try and convince Nigerians that the so called “change” currently yearned for would be nothing but a mirage unless people consciously took the initiative to drive that change to reality by first departing from the business-as-usual way of doing things and rather put more effort in always doing the right thing. The group elaborated further that Just like the saying goes that he who comes to equity must come with clean hands, Nigerians must not always rely for the top-down of approach of nation cleansing, instead a revolutionary change driven by the populace could speed up the process and eventually force our leaders to follow suit. Accountability must be demanded from people in positions of authority on a fairly consistent basis to keep them in check.

It is worthy of note that the group also decided to give out food items to the less privileged as a show of compassion and called on the new government not to renege on its campaign promises. When asked about the outing, Segun was ecstatic that more and more Nigerians had begun seeing things differently as they have become more aware of both political and economic space. He concluded by reiterating his belief that what happens on the individual’s inside matters more that the outward aesthetics and that people should latch on fast to the slowly developing paradigm of being the change they want to see. He thanked his fellow Corps members for their support but more importantly all Nigerians for their resilience.

Desmond Tutu Celebrates 60th Wedding Anniversary

Anglican Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu, on Thursday, fell head-over-heels in love again, and saluted his wife, Leah, who has been at his side for the past 60 years. The couple celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary by renewing their wedding vows at a Eucharist service at St George’s Cathedral in Cape Town. Tutu, the Nobel Laureate, who played a pivotal role in the struggle against Apartheid said the woman he met in Soweto in the 1950s had played a pivotal role in his career.

Nelson Mandela spent his 95th birthday in hospital Thursday but his health was "steadily improving", the South African presidency said, as people around the world honoured his legacy with charitable acts. With a wave of good deeds planned to mark Nelson Mandela Day, South Africans awoke to word that their national hero was getting better six fraught weeks after he was admitted to hospital with a recurring lung infection.

South Africa’s Nobel Peace Prize laureate Desmond Tutu (R) and staff from the Desmond and Leah Tutu Legacy hold up a poster wishing Nelson Mandela a happy birthday at the Marconi Beam Public Primary School in Cape Town on 18 July 2013.

After renewing their vows at the ceremony attended by Njongkulu Ndugane, who succeeded him as Anglican Archbishop of Cape Town, Rev. Barney Pityana, and the cathedral’s pastor, Rev. Michael Weeder, among others, the couple danced to marimba music performed in the cathedral. The couple would attend another service in their honour in Soweto on Saturday. Thabo Makgoba, the current Anglican Archbishop of Cape Town, who was unable to attend, described Tutu as a channel of God’s richest blessings. Tutu, who was now retired, received many laurels.

They includes the Nobel Peace Prize in 1984, the Albert Schweitzer Prize for Humanitarianism in 1986, the Pacem in Terris Award in 1987, the Sydney Peace Prize in 1999, the Gandhi Peace Prize in 2007 a South Africa Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2009. The 83 years old Tutu was one year older than his wife and they have four children and seven grandchildren

Nigeria's First State House, Old Residency, Calabar. [picture].

This imposing ornate building with beautiful old European architecture, served as the seat of the government during the colonial era. Today it is part of the National Museum, run by the National Commission for Museums and Monuments, housing artefacts and relics of historical interest.

It is situated near the Mariana Beach Resort and is housed in the Old Government House building - the former residence of the Colonial Governor when Calabar was the capital of pre-independent Nigeria.

Like the Lugard House, Lokoja, the Old Residency was designed and built in the United Kingdom (Glasgow) and shipped over to Nigeria in pieces.

EFCC Returns € 10,000 To Scammed French Lover

Nigeria’s Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has recovered and returned 10,000 euros to F. Mercade, a French citizen, who was victim of internet love scam.

The fund was wired to the victim through his account in France on the recommendation of the French Embassy in Nigeria. Roger Balima, French Police Liaison Officer who confirmed the receipt of the funds by the victim, thanked the EFCC “for the good job.”

Mercade was duped by two internet fraudsters, Omodara Adedapo Oluseye and Adesuyi Ayodeji Adedapo after he was deceived into a phantom relationship that was supposedly alter-bound.

The scam was reported to the Commission via a petition from the French Consulate in Lagos, on behalf of Mercade. The petitioner alleged that he met a Nigerian beauty by name, ‘Kate Williams’ on the internet sometime in 2009 and they developed a relationship which was to culminate in marriage. ‘Williams’ was to relocate to join Mercade in France, to consummate the relationship.

While Mercade planned the logistics of the relocation, ‘Williams’ who purportedly did some jobs for an unnamed company in Nigeria, came up with a story that the company refused to pay ‘her’ for job done. ‘She’ sought the assistance of Mercade and the ‘couple’ contacted a lawyer named ‘James Robert’, to procure traveling documents and also help her claim money from the company owing her.

Mercade parted with the sum of 25,000.00 Euros, through Western Union, in processing his brides’ passage with no bride in sight. Eventually, it dawned on him that he had been scammed.

Investigations into the matter by the Commission revealed that ‘Kate Williams’ is the pseudonym of Omodara Adedapo Oluseye, a male student of the College of Agriculture, Akure, who, however, resides in Ibadan Oyo state. Omodara’s accomplice, Adesuyi Ayodeji Adedapo, assisted in collecting the money transferred by the victim from the Akure, Ondo State branch of a new generation bank, using forged drivers’ license.

The duo were prosecuted on a two count charge of conspiracy and obtaining money by false pretences before a Federal High Court Lagos, convicted and sentenced on 13th June 2011, to one year imprisonment each without an option of fine.
