Dangote’s Senior Strategist Kidnapped, Killed

Reliable sources told PUNCH that Gurama’s body was found in the gutter, adding that one of the kidnappers must have alerted a member of the public to where the body was.


Gurama was believed to have been kidnapped three weeks ago but news of his murder got to his family members (today) Monday.
Sources said that as a senior strategist, Gurama was in charge of negotiations and handing ransom payment to kidnappers whenever any of the expatriates in Dangote Industries was kidnapped.

The day Gurama was allegedly kidnapped, he was said to have gone, as usual, to negotiate and pay ransom money for the release of one of the expatriates. However, on getting there, the kidnappers reportedly said he was the one they were after and he was subsequently detained.

Arsenal’s Wenger concerned by Chinese spending power

Arsene Wenger fears the huge wages being offered by big-spending Chinese clubs could cause problems when the Premier League teams look to negotiate new contracts with their star players.  Wenger is currently locked in talks with Arsenal duo Mesut Ozil and Alexis Sanchez as the pair reportedly seek parity with the best-paid players in the Premier League. The Arsenal manager is hoping for successful resolutions to those contract stand-offs, but he believes the money on offer in the China Super League may persuade the Premier League’s star names to ask for even bigger pay packets to stay in England.

You also belong to the kitchen – Aliyu fires back at Buhari

The former governor of Niger State, Muazu Babangida Aliyu, has stated that it is wrong to believe that only the woman folks belong to the kitchen. According to him, “men also belong there.” President Muhammadu Buhari had, recently in Germany, declared that his wife, Aisha belonged to the kitchen and the other room in reply to his wife’s protest that some unknown politicians had hijacked his government. Aliyu, who spoke in Minna, Niger State capital, at the annual lecture series organised by Newgate College of Technology, said: “Looking at the issue critically, and in Islamic terms, it is actually the man that should be in the kitchen as provided for in the Holy Quran. “The woman should only be in the ‘inner room,’ while the men should provide all the needs of the woman, including making purchases from the market for the use of the family. “Islam does not permit women to go out indiscriminately, as they are supposed to be in the house taking care of the children.” ...
