police as evidence.

then placed the evidence into a polythene bag and took it into police
as proof that Mazi had attempted to rape her.
Begum, a married mother of three, told police that Mazi had been
harassing her for the past six months. Mazi is reportedly also married
and has five children.
“It is quite an unusual incident. As far as I am aware, this is the
first time that a woman has brought a severed penis to the police
station as evidence,” said police spokesperson Abul Khaer.
“We will arrest him once his condition gets better,” said Khaer.
Mazi denied the allegations telling investigators that the two were having an affair.
“Recently she suggested that both of us can go settle down in Dhaka,”
said Mazi. “I refused and told her that I cannot leave my wife and
children, so she took revenge on me.”

CBN Cancels N100 Charge On All ATM Transactions
Users of Automated Teller Machines will no longerpay N100 on withdrawals
whenever they use banks other than theirs, the Central Bank of Nigeria
said on Tuesday.
The decision was taken at the end of a meeting inAbuja between the CBN and the Bankers Committee.
Managing directors of some banks also attended the meeting.
The Group Managing Director, First Bank Plc, Mr. Bisi Onasanya, told newsmen that the charge as well as others associated with the use of ATMs would be scrapped soon.
He said it was meant to encourage the use of ATMs.
Onasanya said the decision would help to increase the patronage of ATMs, thus deepening the financial inclusion strategy of the apex bank.
He said the modalities for the stoppage is being worked out adding that within the shortest time possible, the adjustments would be reflected in all the ATMs.
“When you use the ATM of a bank other than your bank, there is a charge of N100 which is borne by the account holder.
“We have decided that we will work out the modality and ensure that with immediate effect we would pass on this cost to the respective banks which bear the cost of providing services.
“No matter where you are withdrawing your money from, you will not be subjected to any charge for using the ATM,” he explained.
According to him, the new policy does not cover withdrawals inside the banking hall when the ATMs are off.
“But for transaction on what we call ‘not on us,’ when you are a First Bank customer and you use the ATM of a GTB bank, it is free and it will no longer bear any cost,” he added.

Petroleum Report: Ribadu Says Data Not Accurate
Chairman of the Petroleum Revenue Special
Task Force, PRSTF, Mallam Nuhu Ribadu has said data and information
contained in the report submitted to President Goodluck Jonathan are not
accurate and unverifiable.
Ribadu and the Secretary of the Committee, Olasupo Shasore in a letter to the Minister for petroleum Resources, Mrs. Diezani Alison-Madueke after submitting its report said due to time frame, the committee could not verify all the data and information contained in the report.
Former Head of Service, Chief Steve Orosanye had accused Ribadu of adopting “flawed Process” in arriving at the final reports and not abiding by the resolution of the Committee that the leaked draft of the report be jettisoned or verified for factual accuracy Ribadu fired back accusing his Deputy of not attending meetings.
Both men had a verbal exchange before a shocked President Jonathan during the submission of the Report last week.
The assertion made by the committee in its letter has further made the report unenforceable and confirmed some members argument that the submitted Report is merely a “draft” copy.
The 24-member committee were said to had tongue-lashed Ribadu over the leaked draft report, which they claim contained unverified facts and figures and as such, requested he publicly disowns it as not that of the committee A member of the committee who spoke on condition of anonymity to pointblanknews.com said the report, which was in circulation, was not a certified true copy as all the facts and figures were not verifiable.
“We were shocked to see copies of the draft report. The crux of our meeting today was on the leaked draft because most of the things in the draft are not accurate, factual and not verifiable.”
Sources hinted that after the June meeting of the group, it was agreed that they meet again before the document is put to finality but “that meeting never held, Ribadu and Shasore kept the draft and we were shocked to see it in the media through Reuters and other social media organs.
“Ribadu likes grandstanding, he has used that to win gullible members of the public to himself for too long and that is what we don’t want to see in this very important assignment we have before us,” the source said.
According to the source, we had agreed after June to meet again and harmonize, verify grey areas in the report, we agreed to continue our investigation and do a thorough job, we agreed to reconcile every part of our findings and we agreed to meet again and do the final copy after all findings and facts have been verified. That was the last, we never met, Ribadu never showed up, only for the draft to surface in the media.”
A member of the Committee and a Senior Advocate of Nigeria, SAN, Chief Anthony George Ikoli in a newspaper interview recently, alleged, “the committee’s assignment is factually yet to be definitively concluded.”
