How My Dad Was K!lled By Men In Military Uniform – Nigerian Streamer, Carter Efe Reveals

Nigerian streamer and skitmaker, Carter Efe, has shared the tragic story of how his father, a police officer, was brutally k!lled by armed robbers dressed in military camouflage during a robbery in Ogun State several years ago.

The skitmaker recalled that his father had closed from duty but decided to follow the police van to the nearest bus-stop to their home.

 

 

However, on their way, they ran into an ongoing robbery operation on the highway and unknown to them that the men in military camouflage were robbers, they alighted from their vehicle to know what was causing gridlock, but robbers opened fire on them upon spotting their police uniform.

Carter Efe said his father’s murder is more traumatising because he saw his lifeless body on television and the clip is still available on YouTube.

Speaking in a recent episode of The Honest Bunch Podcast, Carter Efe said, “My dad had closed from duty and was heading home but he decided to enter the police van to the nearest bus-stop to our house, we were saying at Ogun State then.

“However, they ran into a gridlock and some men in military camouflage were robbing. My dad and his colleagues alighted from the van to check what was going but immediately the robbers spotted them in police uniform, they opened fire on them. My dad is on YouTube, I saw my dad’s lifeless body on the ground with police uniform.”

He added, “I am not stranger to pain. I have gone through a lot of pains. So, there is no pain that will make me stop my grind.”

EPL: Semenyo stars as Man City edge Leeds to cut Arsenal lead

Manchester City moved to within two points of Arsenal at the top of the Premier League after a hard-fought 1-0 win over Leeds United at Elland Road.

A first-half strike from Antoine Semenyo proved decisive, as City ended Leeds’ 25-match unbeaten run in evening home fixtures. The visitors were without Erling Haaland, who missed the game with a minor injury.

Leeds miss early chances

Leeds started aggressively and should have led inside three minutes. After Marc Guehi went down under a challenge from Dominic Calvert-Lewin, play continued and the hosts broke quickly.

Brenden Aaronson delivered a cross to an unmarked Calvert-Lewin, who stabbed wide.

Aaronson was denied again on the counter by Gianluigi Donnarumma, while City responded through Nico O’Reilly, whose effort was kept out by goalkeeper Karl Darlow.

Cherki creates, Semenyo finishes

City took control with the final action of the first half. Rayan Cherki split the defence with a precise pass to Rayan Ait-Nouri, who squared low for Semenyo to tap in from close range.

After the interval, City threatened to extend their lead. Omar Marmoush twice went close, while Darlow produced a strong save to deny a header from Guehi.

Leeds pushed late on, with Jaka Bijol heading narrowly wide from a deep corner, but Pep Guardiola’s side held firm.

The result tightens the title race and keeps City within striking distance of Arsenal as the season approaches its decisive phase.

LaLiga: Yamal first career hat-trick sends Barcelona four points clear

Barcelona extended their lead at the top of La Liga to four points with a commanding 4-1 victory over Villarreal on Saturday, as Lamine Yamal scored the first hat-trick of his senior career.

Barcelona overcame an uneasy start to take control before half-time, with Yamal’s clinical finishing proving decisive. The result increases the pressure on Real Madrid, who play on Monday.

Yamal takes control

Villarreal began brightly and applied early pressure, but Barcelona capitalised on a turnover in midfield in the 28th minute.

Fermin Lopez dispossessed Pape Gueye and fed Yamal, who opened his body to curl a low shot into the bottom corner.

Nine minutes later, Yamal doubled the advantage with a moment of individual quality. Receiving the ball on the right flank, he beat his marker with a stepover before cutting inside and firing into the top corner to make it 2-0 at the break.

Villarreal respond, Barca regain grip

The visitors responded quickly after half-time. A Nicolas Pepe corner was not fully cleared and Gueye swept home from close range to reduce the deficit.

Villarreal nearly equalised soon after when Ayoze Perez broke through but dragged his effort wide.

Barcelona regained control following the introduction of Pedri, whose composure stabilised midfield. In the 69th minute, he found Yamal inside the area and the teenager cut in to slot home his third of the night.

With the outcome effectively decided, Jules Kounde broke forward in stoppage time and squared for Robert Lewandowski to tap into an empty net, sealing a comprehensive win.

Just before the break, Alexis Mac Allister’s volley took a deflection and found the net to make it 3-0. All three goals came from set-plays.

West Ham had opportunities through Konstantinos Mavropanos, Jarrod Bowen and Tomas Soucek but failed to convert.

Visitors rally briefly

Soucek reduced the deficit early in the second half, finishing from a cross by El Hadji Malick Diouf.

However, Cody Gakpo restored Liverpool’s three-goal cushion in the 70th minute with a deflected strike.

Taty Castellanos gave West Ham renewed hope with a second goal, but a cross from Jeremie Frimpong was turned into his own net by Axel Disasi to complete the scoring.

Liverpool’s first five-goal league haul of the campaign lifts them above Chelsea, who face leaders Arsenal on Sunday.

West Ham remain 18th, two points behind Nottingham Forest, as the relegation battle intensifies.

Nollywood Actress, Iyabo Ojo Reacts To Reports That She Gave Kayamata To Fola Tinubu

Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo has dismissed as completely false the allegation that she gave her goddaughter, Fola Tinubu, Kayamata, describing the claim as “a lie from the pit of hell.”

Kayamata, a known herbal product, is used to enhance female s*xuality, increase s*xual satisfaction, and strengthen marital bonds. It is also often used by married women to increase attraction.

Iyabo Ojo’s allegation dismissal comes after an Instagram blog, Gistlover, alleged that the movie star gave Fola Kayamata to attract men.

However, in an Instagram post on Friday, Iyabo clarified that Fola is an adult, noting that she does not monitor her or question her about her intimate relationship.

The thespian also noted that she does not use or patronise Kayamata, adding that she had helped Fola with her business and legal battles.

She wrote, “First and foremost, Fola Tinubu is an adult. I’m not one to monitor or ask questions about anyone’s life. Gistlover saying I gave Fola any form of Kayamata is a lie from the pit of hell. I have never once asked or discussed anything pertaining to her relationship with her.

“I don’t know who she is dating, and I never asked her; nothing concerns me, nor have I ever given her anything for s*xual or relationship purposes. I myself don’t use Kayamata, so how will I give what I don’t have? I don’t patronise such.

“Fola is not my friend; she was a lady I helped who later became a goddaughter. I don’t discuss intimate matters with goddaughters; I’m a very strict and busy person. I helped her in so many ways with her business and legal battles. Now, to the glory of God, she is doing well for herself; that was my goal with her, nothing more, nothing less.

“If what you have rewritten is true about me, may God destroy me and all that I stand for. But if it’s all lies about me, may God punish whoever is sending you those lies.”

There Was A Time I Used To Wonder How I Would Thrive Financially Without ‘Otunba’ – Actress Tonto Dikeh Opens Up

Nollywood actress Tonto Dikeh has shared how her financial situation dramatically improved after she embraced Christianity.

Speaking via a post on Instagram, she attributed her financial progress to divine provision, adding that her experience has been different.

Dikeh challenged the notion that devotion to God leads to financial hardship and disclosed that she now owns 4 houses.

The mother of one stated that she used to wonder how she would survive without ‘Otunba’, but God surprised her.

She urged believers to trust God regarding their financial needs, stressing that faith encompasses every aspect of life.

Dikeh said, “I am sharing this to encourage believers all over the world. There’s a common narrative that once you give your life to Christ, you should expect financial struggle, that devotion to God somehow means settling for less. My experience has been the complete opposite.

“Since surrendering my life to Jehovah and making Him my Lord and Personal Saviour, I have witnessed a dimension of provision and increase that I had never known before. My faith did not diminish my life; it elevated it. I have experienced undeniable financial growth, supernatural help, and timely provision. There has never been a genuine need that God did not answer. Many times, He sent strangers as destiny helpers.

“Listen, I have seen money, but what God is doing now is mega money.

“God is sweet. I once wrote here: “I have so much faith in God that if man cannot be my blessing, God will send angels from heaven for my sake.” I still stand by that declaration.

“There is a dimension of living called the Zoe life, the God-kind of life. When you are completely sold out to God, obedient, and aligned with His will, there is nothing you cannot achieve within His purpose for you. In less than a year, El-Roi, the God who sees me, has blessed me with 4 houses. This is only the beginning. In 2026, this will be the least I will ever be.

“To every Christian reading this: let this strengthen your conviction. God sees you. God is interested in every area of your life, including your financial growth. This has nothing to do with celebrity status. It has everything to do with being a woman who has dedicated her life on earth to serving God wholeheartedly.

“He will not fail you. He will not allow the world to mock your obedience. The One who called you has ordained you to win. Do not lose faith. Do not be discouraged.

“Everything you seek is in God. There was a time I wondered how I would thrive financially without the help of “OTUNBA”. Today, by God’s grace, He has established me in my own right. The same God who lifted me can lift you. Let this minister to your soul: God can indeed be trusted.”

Why Is Lagos Govt Paying ₦100 Million If Nobody D!ed At Lekki Tollgate.? – Dele Farotimi Blasts Lai Mohammed (Video)

Human rights lawyer Dele Farotimi has described former Minister of Information Lai Mohammed as a reprobate and shameless liar over his account of the tragic shooting at the Lekki Toll Gate.

Mohammed recently claimed that nobody was k!lled during the shooting at the Lekki tollgate in 2020.

 

However, in an interview on the ‘State Affairs’ podcast with Edmund Obilo, Farotimi insisted that Mohammed lied about his account of the event at the Lekki tollgate.

 

 

 

The activist lawyer further said the Lagos State government paid ₦100 million to injured survivors and relatives of the de@d.

According to Dele Farotimi, the Lagos government also paid for the burial of over 100 unidentified people, questioning Lia Mohammed over the payment if nobody d!ed.

He said, “Yes there was massacre at Lekki tollgate but I was not part of the organization of the EndSARS but I became involved after the massacre.

“I belong to a political collective in the NBA known as the Radical Agenda Movement in the Nigerian Bar Association.

“When the panel was set up, our late Chairman and us took a decision to boycott that panel and some of our cadres had placard in front of the panel demanding that the panel should not sit.

“It was while they were there that some of the survivors approached him and that was how our collectives became involved in EndSARS.

 

 

“Because of that involvement, I was the one who personally provide safe houses, paid doctors bills, in some cases paid funeral expenses, and I’m saying this that the Lagos State government paid N100 million in cash of two installments of N50 million each to injured survivors and relatives of the de@d. They made it cash because they didn’t want any record of transaction.

“The persons who collected those money are still alive and well, why are they paying if nobody d!ed? Lai Mohammed is a liar, a reprobate, shameless liar, that is what he is. He has always been bold at telling reprobate lies.

“A panel of inquiry sat and reached a unanimous decision, there was no descending voice and a retired AIG was sat on that panel and they unanimously agreed that there was a massacre.

“The Lagos State government paid for the burial of over 100 people and they claimed were unidentified, they even profited off the de@th of these persons. Lai Mohammed is a shameless liar.”
