How I deceived all the Ladies who wanted marriage from Me ––Yoruba Actor Yomi Fash-Lanso
When you talk about marriage, it is all about emotions. Because I knew I wasn’t ready for marriage, I went and bought a wedding band and started wearing it so that ladies would think I was married. I wore that band for many years. I would meet a girl and tell her I liked her and when she asked about my wife, I would tell her my wife was abroad. If she wouldn’t mind, we would date…

Woman whose police husband ran over with bus,stabbed child to death tells her story(Photos)
“They told me he took my son to his hometown. Please, help me seek the help of police authorities to ensure he brings my son back,” When the vehicle first hit me and ran over my legs, I tried to lift myself up but my strength failed. Then I saw the vehicle reverse. I thought that was the end of my life. That was when I realised it was my husband. I could not crawl out of the way anymore. I just lay back on the ground. This time, the ran over me completely; the bus’ tyres ran over my shoulder, my back and down to my legs. Then, he sped off,”
It was obvious the vehicle’s tyres narrowly missed her head. Our correspondent saw an extensive injury that ran from her neck through her back, down to her legs. The photos of the injury are too gory for publication.Ikharia has not been seen since the alleged attack and murder of their child at their Kale Close, Mafoluku, Oshodi residence. He was said to have tried to kill himself as well but survived and it is believed his police colleagues at the Makinde Police Station are hiding him.
The policeman allegedly attacked his wife following a fight about a missing N2,000, which he reportedly saved in the house.
He beat me all the time. I could not question him because I got punched and slapped every time I opened my mouth and he did not like what I said,”“When I met him, he was living in a patrol vehicle. He told me he liked me and was nice at the time. I did not know he had no home. Anytime I visited him, it was always at his friend’s place.
“Then one night, I met him in the vehicle he was sleeping in, I asked why he could not get an apartment, he said his ex-wife, a policewoman he had just separated from, sent him packing. The woman was the one who rented the apartment.
“I already had two children from a previous marriage but I told him he could come over to stay with me.
“Within the period he was living with me, I got pregnant and we had to go to the registry to formalise the union. When I asked to meet with his family, he said if I valued my life, I should not make an attempt to contact them. He said they were trying to destroy his life and he had to distance himself from them.”
Dupe said her husband’s behaviour changed immediately he packed into her house.
She said,
“He told me he wanted to buy a bus and begged me for some money, I took a loan and sold my jewellery. I paid a larger part of the cost. That is the same vehicle he used to run over me.When I was pregnant, he gave me some drugs to abort the baby but that did not work. There was a time he threw my baby out of the window.
“Our quarrels were always just before the end of the month when he was supposed to get his salary. He always did that so I would not have the courage to ask for money for the upkeep of the house.I wondered why he would lock me out of the same house I rented with my money and take my baby away. I had been warned but somehow I kept hoping that he would change.”
Dupe, who was a filling station attendant before her ordeal said there was a time she paid N80,000 for a freezer which the seller refused to deliver. She reported the case to her husband.
“I thought being a policeman, he would be able to retrieve my money. My husband arrested the man, got the money. He told me he had collected the money but that he used it to settle a debt. That was the last time I heard about the money,”
Dupe’s devastated mother asked for discretion when speaking with Dupe since the family had not notified her of the tragic murder of her baby.
“We will not tell her until much later when she is well. I have always known that Lucky was an animal. He beat her all the time. He would destroy her phone after each beating so that she won’t be able to contact us.We asked for his family but we got no reply. When my daughter became pregnant for him, I even suggested she aborted the baby, but my daughter refused. She was so adamant about him. We told her to leave the policeman but she did not listen. Now see what has happened.
“The problem now is that we have no money to take care of her. We can only appeal to well-meaning Nigerians to come to our aid so that Dupe can be well again.”
Spokesperson of the Lagos State Police Command, Mr. Kenneth Nwosu, told our correspondent on the phone that an investigation has started and could not disclose too much information at the moment

How I overcame depression-Halima Abubakar
“Especially in 2013. That year was rough for me. I went through series of emotional challenges. At some point, I had to speak out that I was quite depressed. I was a bit down and didn’t want any more of people’s judgments. Even that didn’t help. People took advantage of that too. I had to learn to win the war through self-healing without any more help from people. One of the nuggets that helped me survive that stage was a conciliatory understanding that, that which had caused my pain once made me happy. It once filled me with joy and love.”
“I am more understanding and mature now. I wasn’t mature in the beginning. I allowed everything that hit me pull me down. But now, I can take the heat, any heat. To be fair to the media, they have been good to me. They have to sell. Bloggers have to make money too. And I do not blame all of them for the stories they have published about me. I only have to say that they should not break somebody for profit. The media should double-check stories before publishing.”

Stop calling me your brother, Oyinlola tells Oyedokun
Oyinlola alleged that Oyedokun joined others to assault him when he was removed as the PDP National Secretary.
A statement made available to Saturday PUNCH on Friday by the former governor warned that Oyedokun should stop muddling issues and putting him in bad light whenever he discussed him in the media.
While reacting to an interview granted by the former PDP leader where he accused him of “polluting the drinking water” of the PDP in Osun State among other allegations, Oyinlola said all his brotherly gestures to Oyedokun were never reciprocated with goodness.
He said, “I read Oyedokun’s interview where he described himself as my brother who laid down all he had for me to achieve all I achieved in politics. I need to explain his kind of brother. Since my joining politics in December 2001, every challenge and opposition to whatever aspiration I had throughout my stay in the PDP had the fingerprints of this my elder brother.
“It is on record that my emergence as governor in 2003 was with strong opposition from him, using his powers then as the Deputy National Chairman of the party. Again, in the run-up to my second term bid in 2007, he defected to the then Action Congress (now All Progressives Congress). More than a year after I brought him back into the PDP, my brotherly gestures never received reciprocal goodness from him.”
