Forum / Politics / I did not beat my wife former naija Amabassador to Kenya, his side of the story |
on: 1-06-2011 05:55 PM
| | The rumour mills were going into overdrive over the past week when a local newspaper published pictures and a story of the Nigerian High Commissioner's wife's tale of domestic violence and battery from her husband, Dr. Chijoke Wigwe.
In addition, the story has gone viral in blogs, newspapers and international media. The main theme they’re carrying is the story of the battered wife. In all the articles we have seen, none has investigated the story further.
From the article, the wife, Tess Iyi Wigwe accused Dr. Wigwe of battering her repeatedly over 'a dinner argument'. The diplomat is said to have hit her repeatedly, with cuts showing on her bloodied face.
What the journalists have seemingly failed to do is to investigate the other side of the story, which would have been the prudent thing to do, given the nature of diplomatic influence and damage this was going to have.
Sources revealed to us that Mrs. Wigwe has been long separated from her husband, and no longer resides with him permanently. she spends most of her time away from her husband's diplomatic's residence, preferring to live elsewhere. Their two children live with the husband.
However, the story that is emerging is one of battery and violence, with her as the alleged perpetrator.
Our sources further revealed that she has gone so far as to batter domestic staff, drivers and diplomatic residence staff, which has been done repeatedly.In 1998, Mrs. Wigwe was expelled from Japan in a scandal that brought to light the fact that she had assaulted a diplomat from another country. This of course could not be condoned and she was sent packing.
Lately, she has been fighting her husband for property acquired AFTER their separation. She has been picking up cars from the diplomatic residence and sometimes hindering her husband’s movement, forcing him to use taxis in his daily routine and while on social engagements.
What is coming to light is that on finding that her husband purchased property in Nairobi, she contacted a friend of hers, who is a senior staffer at an international organization, and the two allegedly conspired to 'teach him a lesson'.
Our sources informed us that Mrs. Wigwe showed up at the diplomatic residence in the evening, demanding to know why Dr. Wigwe was making purchases such as the residential property without consulting her. She then proceeded to beat and attempted to choke her husband. This is where it emerged that she is the one who has been the harbringer of domestic violence in the marriage. Dr. Wigwe, in his defence is said to have pushed her, and she fell and hit herself on the stairs and banister, injuring her face.
>Mrs. Wigwe, on seeing what happened, is alleged to have smeared the blood all over her face, and then proceeded to take pictures of herself for evidence. She then demanded USD 200,000 and the title deed to the house so as not to release the pictures. Her children are said to have aided to get her out of the house, where she went on to damage the property, breaking windows, ornaments and damaging doors before she left in the company of the same friend who had hatched this plan with her. All this is said to be in evidence at the NHC residence.
The questions that come to mind are as follows:
* Why did Tess Wigwe wait 10 days before reporting the incident to the police?
* Why did she first run to the press, where she is known to have intimate friends, who published her story?
* Why did she pause to take pictures of herself, instead of going to secure medical attention, and have the doctors document her injuries?
* Has Dr. Wigwe said anything to this matter? Reports say that he has always agreed to being in a bad marriage, he has not hidden that fact
* Have the police bothered to check out the validity of the story
* Does Mrs. Wigwe have medical records detailing and documenting her injuries, from a neutral source?
While FIDA has come out guns blazing to demand that Dr. Wigwe be arrested and expelled from the country, have they heard the story from the other person in this whole mix? Have they interviewed the children, who more often than not are silent witnesses to what goes on in a marriage?
The media sometimes is biased, taking on the woman's side, even when presented with evidence to the contrary. It is remembered that in the story of Joyce Akinyi and Anthony Chinedy, Akinyi visibly assaulted her husband in the full glare of cameras. No action was ever taken against her in clearly what was a case of domestic violence.
Mrs. Wigwe is known for her hot temper, even in social circles. In 2003, she assaulted a local journalist and another lady for talking to her husband while at an event at the Holiday Inn, Nairobi.
Where do we draw the line?
Do we condemn a man just for the fact that the woman broke the story first? Or do we investigate and hear all sides of the story?

Forum / Politics / Shocking: Ndi Okereke-Former NSE Boss Faked Doctorate Degree |
on: 1-06-2011 05:48 PM
| The former head of the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE), Ndi Okereke–Onyiuke, does not officially hold the title Doctor. Huhuonline.com has obtained credible fresh evidence showing that the credentials she presented to the NSE, and on which basis she was recruited into the NSE were forged and contained a number of false and misleading claims, which one senior US official qualified as “grievous and embarrassing” to warrant criminal prosecution.
Ms. Ndi Okereke–Onyiuke was recruited at the NSE in 1983 on the basis of her curriculum vitae which claimed that she had obtained a Ph.D in Business from The Graduate School and University Center of The City University of New York in the United States of America. She also paraded sterling professional experience, claiming to have worked at the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), before returning home to serve her fatherland.
But the City University of New York has no records or data that Ndi Okereke–Onyiuke ever obtained a doctorate degree from the institution, either in Business or any other discipline! Another search of the NYSE’s personnel records have determined that Ndi Okereke–Onyiuke never worked there in any capacity as she claimed.
In a letter dated January 18, 2011 and written in response to routine enquiries initiated by the US Securities and Exchange Commission, (SEC), in furtherance of its regular due diligence on notable Stock Exchanges around the world, Vincent J. De Luca, Director of Student Services, Senior Registrar at the university’s Graduate School and custodian of student records at the Graduate Centre, averred under oath of perjury that: “On January 18, 2011, I caused a search to be conducted of our student records (including graduation records) at The Graduate Center, at the request of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, to determine if Ms. Ndi Okereke–Onyiuke was ever enrolled in the Ph.D Program in Business and if she received a Ph.D in Business at The Graduate Center.
A thorough search of our electronic and paper files for the names, Ndi Leche Okereke, Ndi Okereke, Ndi Okereke – Onyiuke and Ndi Lechi Okereke – Onyiuke was conducted. No record was found that Ms. Ndi Okereke – Onyiuke ever enrolled in the Ph.D. Program in Business or received a Ph.D. in Business at The Graduate Center.” This latest unmasking of Ndi Okereke–Onyiuke’s fake doctorate degree comes hard on the heels of recent media reports that she also lied about having worked at the New York Stock exchange.
This lie was laid to bare after media reports quoted NYSE officials denying having any records of her passage there. That story, which included a published deposition by Andrew Richman, Chief Counsel – Litigation, Legal and Government Affairs at the NYSE Euronext (“NYSE”) obtained from a High Court Registry revealed that: “on Oct. 4, 2010, a search…conducted of NYSE’s personnel records, at the request of the US SEC (United States Securities and Exchange Commission), to determine if Ms. Ndi Okereke – Onyiuke ever worked at the NYSE” proved futile.
Mr. Richman further affirmed that: “On Oct. 7 2010, I caused a supplemental search to be conducted of Securities Industry Automation Corporation (SIAC), at major times a majority - owned and later wholly – owned NYSE subsidiary…After a diligent search of both electronic and paper files including files relating to former employees, NYSE staff found no record that Ms. Okereke – Onyiuke ever worked at SIAC of NYSE”. Richman also concluded his report of findings with a declaration that, “I certify under penalty of perjury that the foregoing statements made by me are true and correct”.
The overwhelming evidence indicates that Ndi Okereke – Onyiuke’s credentials, on the strength of which she was employed as Research Manager by Apostle Hayford Alile, then Director – General of the NSE via letter with Ref. No. NSE / 11 / 86 and dated Jan. 4, 1983 were forged. Her career at the NSE, predicated on such falsehood amounts to a scam, a national swindle of unimaginable proportions and for which she ought to be prosecuted for fraud and perjury.
A Nigerian government official told Huhuonline.com that if these allegations are proven to be true, then the Nigerian Minister of Justice and Attorney General of the Federation will request information from the NSE as to whether Ndi Okereke–Onyiuke has been receiving additional remuneration for the doctorate title in order to open criminal charges against her and to seek restitution.http://www.scribd.com/doc/56806262# | | | | |

| He is not mad at all he is just a drag queen. A drag queen is usually a man who dresses, and usually acts, like a caricature woman often for the purpose of entertaining or performing. There are many kinds of drag artists and they vary greatly, from professionals who have starred in movies to people who just try it once. Drag queens also vary by class and culture and can vary even within the same city. Although many drag queens are presumed to be gay men or transgender people, there are drag artists of all genders and segxwalities who do drag for various reasons. | | | | |
