Man dies in auto crash days after admission into UNIPORT

Young man dies in auto crash shortly after announcing his admission to UNIPORT

A 28-year-old man, Abacha Wezume, lost his life in a fatal auto accident just four days after announcing the news of his admission into the University of Port Harcourt, UNIPORT. The incident occurred on the fateful day of Friday, October 27, 2023, in Rivers State, leaving friends and family in mourning and shock. Abacha Wezume, who hailed from Aluu in the Ikwerre Local Government area of Rivers State, had taken to his Facebook account on Monday, October 23, to share the exciting news of his academic achievement.

He proudly announced his acceptance into UNIPORT, a dream he had been ardently pursuing for several years. “Congratulations to me. Unique UNIPORT, thank you. Have just been offered admission,” he posted on his Facebook page. Tragically, Abacha Wezume’s celebration of his academic accomplishment was short-lived.

Just hours before the fatal accident, he updated his Facebook status, expressing a sense of invincibility. “I’m untouchable. I will live to glorify His holy name,” he wrote. The news of his untimely demise has sent shockwaves through his circle of friends and family who were deeply affected by the tragic loss.

Admission seeker extorted by Police receives refund following viral report

Sodiq Oladebo, an admission seeker who was extorted by officers attached to the Osun State Police Command, has been refunded the N20,000 that was unlawfully taken from him. The incident, which occurred while Oladebo was traveling from Osun to Benin, Edo State, was brought to light by the victim himself, prompting swift action from the authorities. Following NigezieXtreme initial report on the extortion incident, Oladebo’s brother, Suleman, confirmed to The Punch that the full amount extorted had been returned. “They have refunded it just now. My brother just called me. I commend the Nigeria Police, especially the Force Public Relations Officer, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, and the Osun State Command’s PRO for their efforts,” Suleman revealed. The Osun State Police Public Relations Officer, Yemisi Opalola, had previously urged Oladebo to reach out, assuring him that she had been actively working on the matter since becoming aware of it. In a tweet, Opalola stated her commitment to resolving the issue, urging the victim to contact her. She tweeted; “Since I heard about the extortion of the admission seeker by some policemen in Osun State, I have been working seriously on the matter and of course, I have made success. I want that victim to please call or chat with me.” Recounting the incident, Oladebo explained that while traveling along the Ilesa Expressway, their vehicle was stopped at a checkpoint by police officers. After searching their bags and finding nothing incriminating, the officers intimidated Oladebo and demanded a sum of N100,000 from him, threatening to take him to the police station if he failed to comply. Having only N99,000 in his Palm Pay application, which was intended to be used for purchasing an Interim Joint Matriculation Board (IJMB) form for university admission, Oladebo eventually transferred N20,000 to a Point-of-Sale operator, as demanded by the officers. With the refund of the extorted amount, Oladebo’s ordeal has reached a satisfactory conclusion.

Admission seeker devastated as Policemen allegedly forcefully collect N20k during inter-state travel

Admission seeker devastated as Policemen allegedly forcefully collect N20k during travel

An admission seeker identified as Sodiq Oladebo has accused members of the Nigeria Police Force of extorting N20,000 from him and other passengers. The incident took place on Saturday when Oladebo and fellow travelers were en route from Osun to Benin, Edo State. According to Oladebo, their vehicle was stopped at a checkpoint, and police officers proceeded to search their bags. Despite finding nothing incriminating, the officers allegedly resorted to intimidation tactics, demanding a payment of N100,000 or threatening to take Oladebo to the police station. Distressed by the situation, Oladebo explained that the N99,000 he had in his Palm Pay application was meant to purchase an Interim Joint Matriculation Board (IJMB) form required for his university admission. Following a heated exchange with the police officers, a compromise was reached, and they settled for N20,000 from Oladebo. The amount was immediately transferred to a Point-of-Sale operator named Delight Enterprise, as corroborated by a screenshot of the receipt bearing the transaction time of 11:34 am on Saturday. Expressing his frustration, Oladebo revealed that the police officers responsible for the incident were four in number and were traveling in a black Hilux van. Regrettably, his money is still in their possession despite the transaction. In his words; We left Old Garage Park in Osun State, and were going to Benin, Edo State. Our vehicle was stopped by the policemen. They checked the passenger at the front and later asked me to come down from the vehicle to identify my luggage. “They searched and didn’t find anything incriminating. He took my phone from me, unlocked it but didn’t find anything incriminating on it. He returned my phone and said he would take me to the station except I pay N100,000. They had seen N99,000 in my Palm Pay application and my brother gave me the money to purchase the IJMB form.” “I transferred the money to a Point-of-Sale operator whom the officers called to the location and they allowed me to go. The policemen were four and in a black Hilux van. My money is still with them.

“I gained admission to UNILAG last year, but I moved on because of ASUU strike” – Rema (Video)

Young music star, Rema has revealed that he has ditched his UNILAG admission and is focusing fully on his music.

You may recall that the 22-year-old musician had revealed that he gained admission to University of Lagos last year to satisfy his mum’s wish for him to complete his education. However, a month after his admission, the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) went on a 7 months strike. The singer who never returned to begin his education at the institution has finally opened up on his reasons for not doing so. In a recent interview with a Caucasian host of Count Down Radio, he revealed that he had decided to bail on it because the university went on strike.

This left the white host surprised as he apparently hasn’t heard of universities going on strike. Speaking further, Rema said that it was beginning to seem awkward for him to juggle both schooling and touring, so he had to dump school and focus on his music career fully.
