Messy Divorce: How Ex-Abia LG Boss Deceived, Manipulated Lady to Loot Husband’s Properties – Witness
The dust raised by the role a former Abia Local Government, LG Chairman from the Central Senatorial Zone of the State played in instigating a messy divorce between a once happy couple is yet to settle down even as more facts has emerged buttressing allegations that the randy politician practically wrote the script that tore the marriage into shreds
Out of two witnesses, a matter is established, says the Holy Book. In the matter of the messy divorce case instigated by the former LGA chairman, three witnesses have revealed that indeed the former LG Chairman was the sole author and producer of the drama that has engulfed a once happy home.
Our reporter spoke extensively with the driver of the Lady at the centre of the mess; Her biological brother and a painter that works for the family, and from their revelations, we established an intimate relationship between the former LG boss, all confirming our last report, with additional revelations
The Lady’s younger brother confirmed acquaintances with the randy politician whom he said his sister introduced to him as ‘’her godfather”.
After the introduction, he added that the former LG boss cajoled him to always be around his in-law’s house to protect his sister, that he (the Chairman) will be giving him money to do his bidding
Asked whether his brother-inlaw and his sister were having problems before he met the LG boss, he replied in the negative.
The youngman maintained that he could have been under a spell or simply deceived by the regular huge sums of money he was receiving on regular basis from the politician. He narrated how he woke up one morning to receive an alert of N100,000 from the politician who later called him and instructed him to park his brother inlaw’s properties to an address in Victoria Island
He told our reporter that, the scale fell off of his eyes, when he suspected that the “godfather” status has turned to amorous relationship and taken a dangerous dimension as he later overheard the politician instructing his sister to grab all she could from her husband’s home and flee because the husband had concluded plans to bring back his first wife, a story he found out later were all lies.
‘’In fact, that so called LG Chairman destroyed my sister’s marriage by manipulating her against her husband and I reported same to my family”, he concluded.
The driver to the Lady who has worked with the family for about 4 years said he began to notice changes in what he thought was a political relationship after the election. He explained that before then, he would drive his Madam to the ex-Chairman’s family house, somewhere in Aba and they will go inside the building – just the two of them for several hours while he would sit at the gate with the security guards.
He said he initially thought nothing about it as the ex Chairman regularly showered him with huge amounts of money during such visits and sometimes, through money transfer, but he began to get suspicious as the visits became more frequent and always with only between two of them in his matrimonial home, and maybe because, his family is said to be living outside the country. I began to wonder how a responsible man could be bringing another man’s wife to his family house ?
He added that his suspicions were further spiked by the video calls he often noticed between his Madam and the man, which often goes on for several hours when the husband is not at home
‘’Even when driving Madam, they will be talking non-stop on the phone for hours and be calling each other pet names”, the driver said. He further disclosed that the politician instructed his Madam to disconnect the car tracker, an instruction he had executed on the orders of his madam twice.
Our reporter has so far been able to corroborate the revelations with phone chats and bank transactions in our possession.
In the course of the investigations, the former Chairman was confronted with the allegations, with pieces of evidence, but he arrogantly queried why he is being called out alone. He boasted that he is only one of the many lovers of the Lady and named a former member of the House of Assembly, who was also a former Commissioner in the State who once gifted her N3m? He also mentioned another serving lawmaker, and a bigtime telephone dealer based in Lagos.

Niger Explosion: FFS CG Warns Fuel Station Owners, Tankers Operators To Address Drivers’ Recklessness
The Controller-General of the Federal Fire Service (FFS), Engr. Abdulganiyu Jaji, has called on fuel station owners and tanker operators to take immediate action in addressing reckless driving by their drivers, especially on major roads and dangerous bends.
The call followed the tragic fuel tanker explosion in Niger State that claimed over 60 lives and left many others severely injured.
Jaji while
speaking to journalists, reiterated the need for an urgent review of safety protocols governing fuel transportation across the nation.
The Controller-General while expressing concern over the frequent tanker explosions and fuel station incidents in the country, warned that even a small static spark or gas leak can result in rapid, deadly explosions.
Jaji who highlighted the dangers of scooping fuel from fallen tankers, noted that it has a highly fatal risk.
“Fuel vapors and leaks can ignite at any moment,” he cautioned.
He said: “Your life is worth more than a few litres of fuel,” warning that approaching a fuel spill is not only dangerous but could be fatal.
He urged the public to avoid accident sites and instead contact the Federal Fire Service for prompt intervention.
The Fire Service boss also called on Nigerians, particularly operators of fuel stations, gas refilling plants, and users of gas cylinders, to strictly follow safety measures to prevent further catastrophe.
Jaji however extended his condolences to the families affected by the recent tragedy and commended the first responders for their dedication, which he described as a testament to the nation’s resilience.
He expressed his heartfelt prayers for those grieving, asking for divine strength to help them cope with their loss.
He took the time to express the importance of prioritizing safety and public awareness to prevent similar incidents in the future.
“Every life is precious, and we must do everything in our power to protect our citizens,” he urged.
He reiterated the Federal Fire Service’s commitment to enhancing safety awareness and called for the swift passage of the Fire Service Act of 1963, which is currently under review at the National Assembly.
He argued that the outdated law is inadequate to address current fire safety challenges and needs to be modernized to better regulate fire safety measures and reduce incidents like this in the future.
