Nigerian-born British model, Harry Uzoka stabbed to death in alleged robbery operation
Saturday, 13 January 2018 17:22 Written by dailypost.ngA Nigerian-British male model, Harry Uzoka, has been stabbed to death at his home on Old Oak Road, East Acton, United Kingdom.
Uzoka, who was with Premier Model Management, died from a single stab wound on Friday.
The 25-year-old staggered into the street from a housing estate before collapsing.
Speaking to British media, Detective Inspector Beverley Kofi said: “This is another tragic murder with a young male victim who has met a violent death.
“We believe that the incident started at Ollgar House, in Ollgar Close and the victim was assaulted and stabbed before staggering and collapsing in Old Oak Road.
“We believe there were a number of people involved, but we are still working to establish the circumstances and a possible motive.
“We have made two arrests and continue to pursue a number of lines of inquiry. We need the public’s help to piece together what happened — who the victim was seen with, the incident itself and the immediate aftermath.”

Thursday, 11 January 2018 23:31 Written by oasesnewsFLASHBACK: Nigerian accountant, pastor jailed for 9 years over £4.1 million fraud in UK
Thursday, 28 December 2017 00:34 Written by dailypost.ngA Nigerian, who works as a school accountant in the United Kingdom, was on Friday given a 9-year jail term by a Woolwich Court after he was convicted of stealing about £4.1 million of school funds.
Dailymail reports that the vast sum of money was missing from the Haberdashers’ Aske’s Federation Trust in South London.
Identified as Sam Kayode, the 59-year old was also said to be a part-time pastor.
Kayode was said to have spent the money on his late wife, Grace, a “second wife”, Olubunmi Halima, 33, and two other female “partners”, names given as Toyin Lawal, 50 years old and Yetunde Turtak.
The court sentenced Kayode, who gets £57,000 a year wage, after he was found guilty of obtaining £150,000 by theft and £3.95 million by fraud.
He constantly looted the school account for 7 years until he was apprehended in 2012, after a school cleaner came across his paper work and made an anonymous call to the Chief Financial Officer.
He claimed to have moved the money to Nigeria where he has a £1 million empire with Halima but the Trust could not recover any asset from Nigeria.
They were, however, able to recover only £800,000 from the total money he stole.
Apart from spending money on his real wife Grace’s private health care until her death in 2013, he also signed documents showing he was making investments with Halima, and renting flats in Kent for ‘partners’, Toyin and Yetunde.
During trial, Kayode tried to blame the theft on his late wife Grace and an office junior, saying that they conspired to smear him by transferring the money to his joint account in revenge for his adultery.
He denied having affairs with the other women, and said that he lied about marrying Halima.
However, Toyin also denied they were lovers, saying that as her pastor, he paid for her rent for one month when she was short of cash.
Nigerian jailed 21 years for attempted murder of 90-year-old woman in London
Saturday, 23 December 2017 17:35 Written by Punchng.comA court in the UK on Thursday jailed a Nigerian woman for 21 years over a failed attempt to kill a 90-year old widow and steal her £30,000.
Abosede Adeyinka, 52, who wore a lace disguise over her face when she committed the crime in April, was said to have convictions dating back to the 1990s for offences of assault, burglary and theft from an employer.
According to Mailonline, Adeyinka attacked Pamela Batten, 90, with a knife and a hammer after her husband Ernest had hidden the cash in bags at their home in Yiewsley, west London.
Adeyinka was the carer for Batten’s husband Ernest from 2013 until his death in October last year, a court heard.
After Ernest passed away, Adeyinka went to the widow’s home and knocked her to the floor.
Mrs Batten told the court, “She tried to hit me with a hammer
“Nobody suggested it but I did wonder myself – I still wonder why.”
Following a trial at Blackfriars Crown Court, a jury convicted Adeyinka of attempted murder.
She was cleared of possessing a kitchen knife after jurors could not be sure she took the blade with her.
Adeyinka shook her head in disbelief as the verdicts were given and wept loudly as Judge Peter Clarke, QC, said she had shown ‘a complete lack of remorse’.
The Prosecutor, Kevin Barry, told the court the widow ‘was afraid to go home’ following her discharge from hospital and now needs a zimmer-frame to walk.
He said, “Before the attack, she felt lonely because her husband had died, but she was not afraid like she is now, he said.
‘The hammer blows to her head have affected the vision in her right eye which is now blurry.
“Mrs. Batten feels that she has changed after the attack. Before it, she was the sort of person who would try to make friends with anyone; but now, she is frightened if someone speaks to her.”
Jailing Adeyinka for 21 years Judge Peter Clarke, QC, said: “Pamela Batten was mentally sprightly and six months after his death she still had no idea that her husband had squirrelled away over £30,000 in cash around the house.
“From what you did on 27 April, there is every reason to believe that you knew more about that money than Mrs. Batten did.
“You visited her about three times after her husband’s death and, although she had reservations about your motives, Mrs. Batten was pleased to have the company even though her son religiously visited her every day.”
Clark added, “Although you were wearing a lace disguise over your face, I am satisfied on her evidence that she called you by name.
“It was at that moment that you resorted to your second plan. You bundled that 90-year-old woman into her front hall and took out a seven-inch hammer from your handbag, smashing that lady’s skull with at least two blows.’
Speaking after the court hearing, investigating officer DC James Harbour said: “This was a vile and disgusting crime on a defenceless grandmother in her own home.
“There are so many factors that make this a wicked attack, including a victim who was 90 and the level of violence used. In view of the age of the victim and brutality of the attack, I am truly thankful that the victim has been able to recover.
“It is a credit to her that she was able to attend the trial in person and tell the court what had happened to her.
“I wish to pay tribute to her courage, resolve and integrity; a stark contrast to the behaviour of the defendant, who is now facing a lengthy term in prison.”
