…As workers, community protest incident
MAKURDI — Emotion ran high, Wednesday, evening, at the Gboko plant of the Dangote Cement, when an explosion allegedly claimed the live of a father of two and labourer at the factory, one Mr. Solomon Ashir.
HeartlandBlaze gathered from an eyewitness, that the deceased was hit by limestone from the quarry site of the plant which led to his instant death before medical attention could get to him.
According to the eyewitness, the incident sparked angry reaction from his colleagues and youths of the host community who barricaded the factory and Makurdi-Gboko road with bonfire in protest against alleged poor safety measures in the plant.
“The deceased who was an indigene of the host community and staff of the parking plant of the company was hit by limestone at the quarry after an explosion that occurred when workers at the site were prospecting for raw materials.
“His death sparked angry reaction from fellow workers and youths of the community who in protest took the corpse of the young man to the palace of the traditional ruler of the community, Tyoor Ukpekpe, Chief Ishi Yonguigba.
“At the palace, the paramount ruler pleaded with the protesters to remain calm and also have restraint in their action.
“Not satisfied, the mob made bonfires on the highway and matched with the corpse into the factory where they insisted on seeing the Assistant General Manager, AGM, in charge of mines, who had fled the scene for fear of being molested.
“They, however, forced their way into the AGM’s office where they dumped the remains of the deceased.”
HeartlandBlaze, however, gathered that Ashir’s remains was taken away and deposited at the Gboko General Hospital by the management of the factory.
Efforts to get a reaction from the company’s manager in charge of community relations, Mr. Bem Meladu, proved abortive as his cellphone was switched off.
Meantime, the Benue State Police Public Relations Officer, PPRO, Deputy Superintendent, DSP, Daniel Ezeala who confirmed the incident said the command had commenced investigations into the matter.

It was further gathered that the wife and the runaway husband are indigenes of Ibadan and have been living together as a happy family in the village for over a decade, before the arrival of the triplets.
Narrating her ordeal, Bose, who delivered the babies last Wednesday at a maternity home in the town, explained that she was bailed out at the hospital by a traditional ruler of the town, Oba Kolawole Sowemimo, who paid the hospital bill.
She further said her husband had gone out before she started having pains and was assisted to the hospital on a motorcycle by a neighbour.
According to her, “I never thought of three babies until when I put to bed because I already had two children who are ages five and eight. I was taken to hospital on a motorcycle by a neighbour when I started noticing signs of delivery, because my husband was not at home at that time. But, surprisingly, I gave birth to triplets and when the news got to my husband he did not visit me throughout my admission in the hospital, and has since remained incommunicado. I don’t even know his whereabouts till now, but I am begging him to come home for the sake of these innocent babies.
“When I got to the hospital, because I could not find my husband, I contacted our traditional ruler who rendered financial assistance and provided clothings and other medical materials for the babies.”
She, however, appealed to the state government, individuals and groups to come to the aid of the family, just as she sought for employment to alleviate the family’s plight, saying she could be reached through her phone numbers 08025213476 and 08061640242.
HeartlandBlaze gathered that the woman and the triplets are all in stable condition and have been discharged from the hospital.
Speaking on the development, the royal father of the town, Oba Kolawole Sowemimo, expressed optimism that the state government would attend to the needs of the family, describing the Ibikunle Amosun-led administration as a government known for the welfare of the citizens and residents.

Answering questions from journalists in his Hill Top Mansion, Minna Thursday, the former military president said what is now left for the electorate is to make their choice and ensure that their votes count in the fort coming general elections in 2015.
“With the emergence of the new party, (APC), we will now see a vibrant political activity and what is left for the electorate and the press is to ensure that the votes count and also allow the people to make their choice,” Gen. Babangida declared.
He said as an advocate and believer in two party system, the time has come for Nigerians to really shine their eyes and make the right choice for the forthcoming elections.
“I have been and will continue to be a strong believer of two party system and like the PDP itself said on the emergence of the APC, it is a welcome development but that is not to say that other registered political parties are dead but it is however clear that we now have two strong parties in the country,” he stressed.
Asked to comment on what he foresees for the country in 2015, Gen. Babangida simply said, “I cannot predict the future and so I wait for God.”
On the lingering ASUU strike in the country, the former president said from all indications, there is determination on the part of government to settle the rift finally adding that ASUU is actually pursuing a genuine course because it in the best interest of the country.
“They do have national interest at heart to be honest and fair to them and I think they should not give up in negotiation with the government but as much as possible, they should also make the public understand the issue at stake,” he advised.

There was anxiety in Port Harcourt on Monday as news of the death of Mrs. Iwari-Oba, the mother of the wife of President Goodluck Jonathan, Patience, spread in the Rivers State capital.
The mother of Mrs. Jonathan was said to have been involved in a ghastly motor accident along Elele Road in Rivers State.

Unconfirmed report indicated that her corpse was taken to Kpaiyama Mortuary by a team of policemen and a member representing Ogu Bolo State Constituency, Mr. Evans Bipi, who is a relative to the deceased.
Though, the police and the Federal Road Safety Commission in the state could not confirm the incident, an aide to Bipi said the First Lady’s mother died in a road accident, which occurred at about 4pm.
Bipi’s aide, Mr. Fred Itobo, told The PUNCH that the President’s wife’s mother was involved in the accident while she was on her way to Bayelsa State.
