After 'Jazzing' Lover, Woman Flees With His N295.5 Million


 A woman, Victoria Alaegbu,  46, has been accused of using charm on her fiancĂ©, Prince Hillary Unachukwu and running away with his $1.5 million (N295.5 million).

Alaegbu was said to have administered a noxious chemical substance on Unachukwu last December in Ikoyi, Lagos. The substance knocked him out between 8pm and midnight and gave Alaegbu time to steal the money and lock Unachukwu inside the house.

Unachukwu woke up when the charm wore off and shouted for help.

Alaegbu was later arrested by the police. She was arraigned yesterday at an Igbosere Magistrates’ Court in Lagos on a five-count charge of conspiracy, attempt to kill, stealing, unlawful detention and possession of fake document.

Prosecuting Sergeant Nicholas Akpene said the defendant locked Unachukwu up inside his apartment with a padlock.

According to the Nation, the prosecutor also alleged that the defendant had a SIM card with number 07087773669, which was not registered in her name and address.

The registration of the SIM card was done with intent to commit fraud, he added.

Alaegbu denied the charges.

Magistrate S. K. Matepo granted her N5 million bail with two sureties in the like sum.

She ordered that the sureties must swear to an affidavit of means and show evidence of tax payment. One of the sureties should be a relation of the accused.

The case was adjourned till February 10 for mention.

Last Tuesday, the police arraigned Unachukwu’s 22-year-old security guard, Isaac Onoja, for conniving with unknown persons to steal the $1.5 million.

Onoja, from Benue State, had claimed that some unknown armed men forcibly entered the premises and tied him up before stealing the $1.5m from the complainant’s room.

Shocking : Man Kills His 2-Month Old Son Because He Wouldn't Stop Crying


 31 year old Danielle Whyte had given birth to her baby boy just seven weeks before he was allegedly murdered at the hands of his own father.

51-year-old Jose Feliciano was allegedly jealous of baby Mason for commanding the attention of Whyte. On Dec. 10, police say Feliciano grew angry after hearing Mason crying and yelled at him in his room to stop crying but the infant kept crying, shortly after, Whtye heard ‘several loud bangs.’



Prosecutors now say the baby suffered ‘blunt force trauma.’

While Whyte explains she tried to revive her son once she realized what happened, it was too late. She says Feliciano allegedly threatened to kill her if she called police, so she decided not to.

Officials didn’t know about Mason’s tragic death until week later when Whyte attempted to harm herself and was sent to a New York hospital.

It was in the psychiatric ward where she confessed that Feliciano had taken the life of her baby boy and the location of where his body was buried. Police eventually found little Mason under a pile of dirt with a rose on top.

Now, even though she might not have physically killed her son, she’s charged with manslaughter and criminally negligent homicide charges, according to New York Daily News. She plead not guilty.

Officials say Whyte knew what she was doing when she left Mason in the ‘danger’ of her boyfriend’s care and did nothing to help him survive.

A CCTV showed him walking out of their apartment with a gym bag the night baby Mason was killed. Apparently, the infant was in that bag, he buried him in the same bag and acted like nothing happened.

Feliciano has plead not guilty to second-degree murder charges and, if convicted, faces a life sentence.

Man Falls 30ft to His Death While Climbing Building After He Forgot His Keys Inside(Photo)


 This is the shocking moment a man plunged 30ft to his death after he attempted to get into his flat because he was locked-out.

It is believed the 52-year-old Ecuadorian man, who has not been named, forgot his keys and they were locked inside his home in Alicante, Spain. He was trying to use a rope to lower himself down from the roof and get in through an open window but tragically lost his balance and plummeted from the third floor.

A neighbour happened to be filming his perilous attempt when he captured the whole devastating event unfold on his mobile phone.

The footage shows how he managed to gain a foothold on the floor above but lost his grip as he 
scaled down the outside of the building and began to tire as he dangled in mid-air.

His neighbour can be heard predicting the fatal outcome just seconds before his fall.

He can be heard telling his wife in a running commentary as he records the man climbing down the building with his mobile phone:
 “He could easily fall at any moment. He’s reached a window and now he’s got to get to the floor below. Why doesn’t he call the fire brigade or a locksmith or the owner of the flat? He could wear himself out and plunge to the ground at any time.”

His wife bursts into tears and he points his mobile in another direction after filming the dramatic fall and gasping:
“He’s fallen. He’s fallen on the ground. He’s killed himself, he’s killed himself.”
The sound of him crashing on the ground three floors down can be heard over the woman’s tears.
The video is understood to have been recorded on January 11 in the Costa Blanca city of Alicante.

Police confirmed a man died around 6pm that day after losing his balance as he tried to reach his home with the help of a neighbour.
