Popular Kaduna-based Pastor, Bawa Madaki has been sentenced to 14 years imprisonment by a Nasarawa High Court for human trafficking.
Madaki was sentenced without an option of fine in a judgment delivered by Justice Haruna Offor at the court sitting in the Mararaba area.
It was gathered that 48-year-old Madaki was arrested by the police in May 2015 before he was handed over to operatives of the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons.
The pastor was arraigned on two counts of fraudulently procuring two underage children from their parents in the Zanzo Kataf Local Government Area of Kaduna State.
The NAPTIP Head of Press and Public Relations, Josiah Emerole, said Madaki’s actions contravened Section 19 (e) of the Trafficking in Persons (Prohibition) Law Enforcement and Administration Act.
Emerole said, “A cleric, Pastor Bawa Madaki, from Kaduna State, has been sentenced to 14 years’ imprisonment for child trafficking. The accused was arraigned on two counts of fraudulently procuring two underage children from their parents.
“Madaki subsequently sent one child to Lagos State in an illegal adoption arrangement and the other to Abuja as a domestic worker, thus depriving their parents of the children.
“The trial commenced on June 23, 2015, and on Monday, March 26, 2018, the court found the accused guilty.”
Two Nigerians – Temitayo David and Toyosi Ogunleye – are helping the United States authorities with its investigation after they were arrested with stolen properties worth $500,000.
David, 55, – a woman – and Ogunleye,42, were arrested alongside one Gregory Bland after Gwinnett County sheriff’s deputies searched a warehouse, and found $500,000 in stolen microscopes, medical equipment and electronics in a Snellville warehouse.
The trio were consequently charged with theft by receiving after investigators notified federal authorities of their find.
According to reports, Deputies said they began investigating after a California company was not paid for an order of 40 microscopes totalling $11,555.20 that was shipped to the warehouse on Eastgate Place in Snellville.
The order had appeared to come from an existing customer, but investigators learned that the microscope company had actually been a victim of a business email compromise scheme, which is a type of phishing scam.
Investigators went to the warehouse on Feb. 23. They encountered Bland, who said he was allowed to live at the building in exchange for accepting packages for the owner, David, according to a sheriff’s office release. During a search, investigators found the microscopes and other stolen items, including medical equipment and construction equipment, the release said.
All three suspects were arrested at the warehouse. David is being held without bond in the Gwinnett County Detention Center. Bland and Ogunleye were released on $11,200 bond.
According to Deputy Shannon Volkodav, spokeswoman for the sheriff’s office.
“The investigation began after a microscope manufacturer in California contacted the sheriff’s office notifying us of a fraudulent order they processed after receiving an email from what appeared to be an existing customer’s email account.
“When the invoice wasn’t paid, a call was placed to the existing customer, who stated that they had not placed the order.”
A joint investigation between the FBI, Homeland Security Investigations and the U.S. Postal Inspection Service is ongoing.

Everything Is Going Down, But The Word Of God……This video was posted to Myles Jack, Jr’s Facebook page. He says the man in the video is allegedly a pastor by the name of Jenkins. However, Obnoxious Media has not been able to confirm who the man in the video actually is nor if he is a pastor.
The man that posted the video to his Facebook profile is named Myles Jack, who is from Jacksonville, Florida and it is safe to assume this was a strip club in Florida due to the dancers being totally nude.
We reached out to Myles via Facebook, but have yet to hear back from him prior to reporting this hot story. Only certain states like Florida and Georgia allow full nudity in the gentlemen’s clubs.

A NIGERIAN MAN WITHOUT LEGAL STATUS IN UNITED STATES, OLUSEYI JEREMIAH OLAGOKE ADEBAYO who came to America on a B1/B2 Visa and outstay his visitor’s stay has been arrested in Houston, Texas, charged for fraud, forgery and stealing for his attempt to dupe United States to the tune of $119,000 home disaster loan in Florida in the recent Hurricane Irma.
Prosecutors in Texas say this Nigerian who is in the United States illegally has been charged with Hurricane Irma-related fraud for trying to obtain a nearly $119,000 home disaster loan in Florida.
Court records confirm that Adebayo was indicted on March 8 and faced a federal court hearing soon in Houston. He has been charged with fraud in connection with a major disaster, forgery or false use of a passport and aggravated identity theft.
Our correspondent gathered from investigators that Adebayo used innocent American man’s Identification card (ID) to apply online for a Small Business Administration loan for property in Orlando, Florida, that he does not own. Adebayo was arrested after trying to pick up the check last month at a post office in Houston.
For the records, Hurricanes Harvey, Irma and Maria, as well as two recent earthquakes in Mexico likely cost the insurance industry about $95 billion, said Swiss Re, one of the world’s biggest reinsurers. Irma struck Florida last September.

Nigerian Man Using False Identification Charged with Disaster Fraud
HOUSTON ‐ A man using a false identification in a scheme to obtain a fraudulent government loan for damage sustained from Hurricane Irma is set to appear in federal court, announced U.S. Attorney Ryan K. Patrick.
A grand jury in Houston returned the three-count indictment against Oluseyi Jeremiah Olagoke Adebayo aka Jeremiah Adebayo Oluyesi, 43, a Nigerian man who illegally resided in Houston, on March 8, 2018. He is set to appear before U.S. Magistrate Judge Christina Bryan today at 10:00 a.m.
According to the indictment, from October 2017 to February 2018, Adebayo used the identification of an Orlando, Florida, resident in an attempt to obtain a fraudulent disaster home loan from the Small Business Administration (SBA) in connection to Hurricane Irma.
The SBA provides long-term low-interest loans to businesses and non-profit organizations in the aftermath of a declared disaster. Loan proceeds are to be used solely for the repair or replacement of real estate, inventory, supplies, machinery and equipment damaged during a declared disaster. Hurricane Irma impacted the Gulf Coast region, including the state of Florida, and was declared a disaster in September 2017.
An application was allegedly submitted to the SBA in October 2017 for a $118,900 home disaster loan which contained several potential fraud indicators. Further, an individual in Houston had attempted to collect on the loan for the Florida property, according to the indictment.
Adebayo appeared at a U.S. Post Office in Houston on Feb. 7, 2018, to obtain the fraudulent loan disbursement check, according to the charges. Adebayo allegedly used a counterfeit passport with the identification of the Florida resident to obtain the check. At that time, the indictment alleges he was also found in possession of a counterfeit U.S. visa.
Adebayo is charged with one count of fraud in connection with a major disaster and forgery or false use of a passport for which he faces up to 20 and 10 years in federal prison, respectively. He also faces a mandatory two years upon conviction of aggravated identity theft which must be served consecutively to any other prison term imposed. All counts also carry a potential $250,000 maximum fine.
SBA-Office of Inspector General and U.S. Postal Inspection Service conducted the investigation. Assistant U.S. Attorney Michael Day is prosecuting the case.
An indictment is an accusation of criminal conduct, not evidence.
A defendant is presumed innocent unless convicted through due process of law.

It's gonna rain. You ready? We've been in the storm too long.
Let us be perfectly clear … It can be a fatal mistake to separate violence and evil amongst the various races. Violence does not come with a skin color. Evil knows no ethnic or racial origins. It is in inherent in all people, no matter who, where, when, why, or how.
You will trust whites who will disappoint you and you will trust Blacks who will disappoint you even more.
Racism in America, in all European countries, has existed only slightly over 1,000 years on this planet which is nearly a quarter of a million years old. It comes from white nationalists (‘planet bastards’ they are) who would have people to believe that Black people are the only -or the MOST violent- of all on the planet when nothing could be farther from the actual truth. As white revisionist European history tells us in their televised media forms, Black people did not “come from out of nowhere,” they were always here from the start of humanity and had great and novel historical impact on the world until this very moment in time – the beginning of the end.
The Church of Rome in Europe led the world into systemic racism against dark-skinned and colored peoples. It spearheaded the long-term enslavement of Africans of all nationalities, which eventually led to the lifelong and permanent enslavement of darker-skinned peoples in a format in which it did not begin in the Far and the Middle East, nor in the Afro-Asiatic nations from which we came.
The current racism of “white jesus” is still used to keep so many Black people mentally enslaved and uninformed as to exactly what white supremacy is. It is so “out there” now that the lines have been so blurred, and Black people who think they are free are not truly “free indeed.”
They are still not allowed to worship God unless they believe what whites tell them to believe, say what they tell them to say and do what they are told to do. Their self-styled ‘spirituality’ is a superficial surface format, a cut-copy-paste version, of what was meant for good. Their pastors and congregants owe and are owned by white banks, so they have to get the money out of believers to pay those bills; they don’t have time to worry about what you believe, let alone why you believe it.
This adulterated version of Christianity, originating from the Church of Rome, is not relatively deep, yet it is still widely practiced by Black people in the Americas, of the various Diasporas, who are not yet mentally ready to hear the absolute truth. They are not ready to discover who they really are in the world. They are still what whites say they are, or they are nothing at all.
They will also tell you that this is not true, but it is.
Evil doesn’t come in a skin color, period.
It -violence- is pretty evenly spread among all races and ethnicities — and whites are no exception.
However, they do use their whitenized media to try to make things appear to be what they are not. We often hear nationalist Trumpeans say things like #fakenews, but it is actually all about #fakemedia, period. And Trump is one of their largest caricaturesque leaders of fake Hollywood mediums.
You will notice, outside the realm of #fakemedia and #fakesocialmedia, that it is a faction of the most jaded and sheltered Black folks who will also tend to believe that Black people are more violent than whites. They do not determine this by observation of the world around them, as whites do, but because that is what race-controlled #fakemedia tells them to believe on television and in the movies, even in the news media that American racists control in order to slant and control the narrative on race and racism worldwide.
On the other hand, we also have to keep in mind that Christ’s (The Messiah’s) own Black kinsmen in Jerusalem, the so-named “Jews,” turned the Savior over to white-skinned supremacy in Rome. As a result of this, the white-skinned Romans presided over and supervised His oppressive harassment, violent beating, and ultimately, His cold-hearted and careless crucifixion.
We are still witnessing this despair among Black people of these current times and events.
The “Jews” did it to their Brother, Christ The Messiah, out of unkempt jealousy – because he was “that carpenter’s son going around trying to call Himself the Son of God” and they chose to recognize no gods but Rome and Caesar, as many Black Americans still do now.
No, Black folk, you can trust no race, and you can barely trust your own blood kin and family on these matters. If you want to know the Lord God, go TO the Lord God, not to other people.
To this day, Black people will still ingratiate themselves to their chosen ‘Marsas’ that they bow down to, and to self-made idols who enslave them and treat them like crap, and will kill them on a whim for whatever reason they think expedient at the moment. Too many Black folks in the Americas simply can’t seem to pull themselves out of this cultural dizziness, this spell-blindness, this intentional internalized longing to worship white skin and European money, Caesar’s renderings. To call the white man “Lord” or “Master,” against the mandates of God Himself, who said THOU SHALT HAVE NO OTHER GODS BEFORE ME.
Maybe it’s guilt-consciousness of their own internalized disobedience, and GUILT is often worse and more fatal than outright revenge.
White Crimes v. Black Crimes
The only difference with white criminality is that their ownership of worldwide media makes them paint themselves out and APPEAR as innocent of rampant violence when they are just as complicit as anyone else, often even worse than anyone else in the world.
Black people’s fights were/are tribal and contained within. Whites, on the other hand, are global with their penchant for violence.
They believe in their manifest destiny or worldwide conquests where they terrorize other people (usually the ones in peaceful lands with lots of mineral resources or those who live in bad climates or in what Europe calls ‘poverty’ as compared to what their white skin thinks “rich” is). Then whenever these ‘people of color’ wholesale fight back or defend themselves and their right to exist peacefully on the planet in their own God-given inheritance, whites will call them terrorists for defending themselves.
Don’t get yourself twisted into white race belief systems about Muslims and “Arabs” … these are the people of Ishmael and his mother, Hagar, of whom God also said he would make “a great nation” of them, as was His promise to their father, Abraham. They are more Semitic than the false Semitic people who now reign godlessly over modern-day man-made Israel, all religious notions aside.
When it comes to religious practices of whatever kind, God is no respecter of persons. That’s the Word.
An idol is an idol, and with Black people, it is often this replicated “white jesus,” fashioned after a Roman model who came from a land in which Christ, i.e., God in the flesh, never set one foot nor did He EVER speak a word of their language when He lived upon this Earth.
It’s a ruse. Period.
Salvation nee “Redemption”
They believe that it is their job to “convert” the world to some latent form of Roman-inspired Christianity, but look around you. They have failed at it miserably.
They have utterly failed at it because it wasn’t their proper position from the Beginning. Look at their “evangelical christian representative” of the world, Donald Trump. It obviously was not their God-given inheritance or rightful place to convert us. We are not a People who are in need of salvation, they are. That much is now very apparent.
We are in a unique and peculiar position to be HEALED, and REDEEMED, and RESTORED, not “saved”. But God will let you believe whatever you need to, if it will get you where He wants you to go.
