Finally, the Aircraft that flew over Synagogue Building belongs to Nigerian Military
This assertion came during the continued proceedings at the coroner’s inquest in Lagos to determine the cause of the buildings collapse. Prior to this, Chief Magistrate Oyetade Komolafe had reiterated the court’s intention not to witch-hunt or prosecute anybody, observing that it is only on a fact-finding mission aimed at forestalling future recurrences.
He made this observation while receiving a fresh application from lead counsel to The SCOAN, Lateef Fagbemi, SAN, who asked the court to stay action on the invitation of The SCOAN’s General Overseer, Prophet T.B. Joshua until the determination of the a suit which is before Justice Lateefat Okunnu of the Federal High Court.
According to the Chief Magistrate, the court is unbiased and not after anybody, appealing to all invited witnesses to honour the court’s invitation to avoid being arrested.
He eventually granted the prayer for a temporary stay of action on the invitation of Prophet T.B. Joshua by Lateef Fagbemi, SAN, pending outcome of a ruling slated for Monday, 22nd December, 2014.
He further advised that the court should not be taken for granted: “We will not add to the pains of T.B. Joshua because we understand that his church members are the ones who died in the building collapse and at the same time, we will ensure that the rule of law is respected. I will grant your prayer, learned SAN but let it be clear to all that the court will not tolerate any attempt by any individual to disregard it. Nobody is above the law. We will be compelled to prove this if parties to this saga try to prove that they are above the law”.
The witness representing the National Airspace Management Agency, NAMA and Deputy General Manager in charge of Air Traffic Operations, Mr. Rafiq Olubukola, admitted to the court that the aircraft that flew over the building, prior to its collapse, was a military aircraft. However, he claimed the aircraft flew normally and in line with the agency’s rules and regulations. He was not forthcoming with technical details of the altitude, number of passengers and timing of the said flight while being cross-examined by counsel to The SCOAN, Olalekan Ojo.
Furthermore, his statement contradicted the evidence presented to the court through the CCTV footage of the incident. He claimed the aircraft didn’t fly over the collapsed building which was contrary to what appeared in the CCTV footage.
While The SCOAN counsel reminded him that the police in their testimony had said his agency was given a copy of the CCTV footage of the hovering aircraft prior to the collapse, he denied ever seeing such a material, adding that he only watched the footage of the collapse on YouTube and hence could not ascertain anything about the timing of the flight.
Meanwhile, the contractor who handled the construction of the collapsed building, Engineer Akin Fatiregun of Hardrock Engineering Company Limited, appeared in court despite being ill. Contrary to the magistrate’s claim that the Engineer had been evading court summons, Mr. Fatiregun told the court that he had always been present at the court save on three occasions when he travelled out of the country to seek medical attention.
The magistrate who had initially threatened to arrest the contractor soft-pedaled when it became very obvious to him that the contractor was ill. He however granted the contractor’s prayer to appear on Friday, 19 December, 2014. Proceedings resume on Wednesday, 17 December, 2014.

Stella Damasus confirms relationship with Daniel Adenimokun, says she didn't steal him
In one of her most candid interviews ever, actress Stella Damasus opened up about her life, struggles, her first and second marriage & what we care most about, her relationship with Daniel Adenimokun. She said she didn't steal him and implied that when she met him, he was already single.
Speaking with Emma Emerson of Golden Icons, Stella Damasus opened up about her relationship with Daniel. She said;
"Let me put it this way. Let me help you hit the nail on the head. One of the comments I have seen consistently, over and over again, is ‘Stella snatches somebody’s husband’, ‘Stella the husband snatcher’, which is what has been going on. And I had sworn that I would never talk about it, or even listen or stress myself about this thing but I have decided to do this now, so that I end this once and for all.
First of all, let me paint a picture for you and you let me know what makes sense to you. When I looked up the word snatch or steal, ehh, let’s go to the dictionary. It means, forcefully taking something away from its original position. Forcefully. From its original position to another position. Something that does not belong to you. That’s what I gathered from the word snatch or steal.
So I looked at me, Stella, and I wondered to myself, how is it possible to go to somebody’s home, and take a man, and take his son, away from his home and say follow me. You are a man, and according to their story, he is happily married inside his home. With his family complete and I walk into that home, to forcefully take a man, abled bodied man, and a kid, away from somebody’s hand and you are there looking at me. How does that work?
Did they accuse me of using voodoo? Yes or no? They said no. Okay, did I put a gun on anybody’s head and remove somebody from somewhere? They said no. So logically, if people actually sit down and think about it intelligently, how do you snatch somebody from somebody and the person is there looking at you?
So when you see a man who has settled ties with a woman and decides to move on with his life and you feel that there is something in this man that you like and he likes you. I am not a kid. I am 36 years old. I am not about to start hiding myself. I was waiting for somebody to actually ask me this question, because all I have heard for the past two, three years are rumours. They said, blogs said, this said. Nobody has been bold enough to confront me and ask me. So I say, if I steal something from somebody, and the person is really the owner of the thing, you come and ask me, ‘you took something from me, give me back’.
But nobody was able to that. And I am like, if I meet an able bodied man that has left and moved on. That is not even in the same house with whoever and is not doing anything with whoever, and both parties have decided this thing is not going anywhere, and they have gone their separate ways, why is it that it easier for the world to blame the woman that the man has decided to end up with?
Why is it that it is always that woman that scattered that home? The two people that did things that nobody was there, nobody said something must have happened between this two people but it is always somebody else that is the problem. And I always say, I do not tolerate blaming anybody for your own problems. I have had problems.
After my late husband’s death, I got married again and the marriage didn’t work. After eight (8) months, it crashed. People didn’t hear much about it, why? We were both mature to understand that we came together, we knew that the thing was not working, instead of us to become enemies we will remain friends, let’s just let it go quietly. And we let it go quietly. I didn’t blame anybody else for doing it, he didn’t blame anybody else for doing it. So I am wondering, two people come together they go their separate ways, this one meets somebody, all of a sudden, it is that somebody that is the problem. Did anybody ever ask, what went wrong? Why would a man pick up his son and walk away from his marriage?
Was there anytime another woman was the problem until the man moved on with another woman? Nobody brought up Stella’s name, then all of a sudden, ‘oh he’s moved on with somebody else (snaps fingers), it must be her’. How? I am still waiting for somebody to come with proof to say ‘oh when they were still in marriage, when they were still in a house, you came and did this.’ So the reason why I don’t like talking about it is that, there are some things I would say to you and you would look at me like ‘oh wow’ but I don’t want to be derogatory, I don’t want to tow the line that other people have towed by talking bad about people.
I would never do that but the stories started coming. At first I ignored it, I just kept quiet, and then it was all over the place, Google, blogs, and I am like, one day, one day, I would tell my story. There’s a reason why I am respecting certain people, respecting certain legal issues that are going on. So there might be some things I may not hammer on, but whenever you hear this person snatched this person’s, you will ask the person, the person that they said was the original owner, what was the person doing when they were snatching the person from him or her? I don’t get it. Do you understand?
So I look at it, I am not ugly, I am not dumb. Of all the men in the world, I will now go and look for somebody else’s own and say this is the one I want. If he didn’t come out of it and say I want to be with you and you want to be with me, how? Why would I come and grab…? Am I that bad looking? Am I that old?.”
Who would you rather be Buhari's running in next year's election?
Let's do a LIB poll. Who would you rather be the APC Vice presidential candidate for the 2015 election? Edo state governor - Adams Oshiomhole, former Ekiti state governor Kayode Fayemi, Lagos state governor Raji Fashola or Rivers state governor, Rotimi Amaechi? Me, I'd rather Fashola. What about you?
