In the 1980s, NTA (Nigerian Television Authority) broadcast the Nigerian horror TV series Hot Cash, which was also known as Willie Willie in all social circles. The premise of this series revolved around the tale of Willie Willie, a small child who lived with a family member who sacrificed him, ostensibly as part of a money ritual. Eventually, he returned as a vengeful ghost or spirit to torment not just his relative but also everyone who was ill-intentioned or greedy in the “Hot Cash” realm. Consequently, Willie Willie was also shown during those nights when NTA aired the nine slasher episodes of Nightmare on Elms Street.
Nigeria easily qualified for the 1998 World Cup in France with the Olympic gold in hand and Bora Milutinovic, a man who specializes in leading teams to World Cups, on the bench. In a pre-World Cup friendly, the Super Eagles were humiliated 4-1 by the Dutch, and they were clearly the underdogs versus Spain. This loss severely damaged their confidence. Sunday Oliseh’s piledriver, Andoni Zubizarreta’s own goal, and Mutiu Adepoju’s score all helped the Eagles win 3-2. Nigeria ultimately emerged victorious from their group and advanced to the next round, whereupon they were defeated 4-1 by Denmark.
In a video, the late President Musa Yar’Adua states that he intended to combat corruption by removing his immunity and that of all other public servants, as well as by putting them and their families under financial surveillance.

The Ndoni people belong to a wider group called Ndi Osimili, sometimes referred to as “the people of the Niger.” They are Ogbasu (Ogbaru) and Oru people as well. Strong communal bonds and a rich cultural past set the Ndoni people apart. In Rivers State, Nigeria, there is a community of Igbo speakers called Onikwu (also pronounced “Oniukwu”). The distance between Ndoni and Onikwu, a self-contained district within Ndoni town, is roughly 6.4 kilometers. The Anioma people, a subgroup in what is now Delta State and Edo State, are known as the Onikwu/Ndoni people. The Ndoni people left Ika, which is in Igboland, and came back. The Ikwerre people, Anioma people, Ika people, Ekpeye people, Umuoji people, Ngwa people, Ohuhu people, Waawa people, Ezaa people, and Mgbo people are among the Igbo subgroups with whom they share language and cultural history. The Ndoni people have long been recognized for their commerce, fishing, and farming methods near the Niger River. Their rich cultural heritage includes storytelling, music, and dance, all of which are essential to their sense of self. The Ndoni also engage in age-old crafts that have been handed down through the years, such as weaving, blacksmithing, and ceramics. Men and women with titles make up the Ndoni community’s leadership structure; they are well-respected and have important responsibilities in upholding traditional customs and social order. These named people frequently act as guardians of the history and legacy of the community, making sure that the Ndoni people’s traditions and ideals are upheld. The Ndoni people have flourished over the ages in spite of several obstacles because of their adaptability and persistence. Their history demonstrates their resilience and dedication to safeguarding their cultural heritage.
Thirteen years had passed since the Nigerian Civil War ended. Ojukwu, the former military governor of Nigeria’s Eastern Region, proclaimed the secession of the area and the creation of the independent state of Biafra on May 30, 1967. As the Head of State of Biafra, the former Lieutenant Colonel of the Nigerian Army oversaw the war against Federal Nigeria from July1967 to January 1970. He fled to the Ivory Coast for exile just before Biafra fell. On June 18, 1982, Ojukwu returned to Nigeria following his pardon from President Shehu Shagari’s civilian regime.

footage of Major General Charles Ndiomu declaring that military officers implicated in a purported plot to topple General Ibrahim Babangida’s administration would be executed by a special military tribunal. Initially, thirteen officers were charged. Lieutenant Colonels Musa Bitiyong, Chris Oche, Mike Iyorshe, Moses Effiong, Navy Commander Andrew Ogwuji, Wing Commander Ben Ekele, Wing Commander Adamu Sakaba, Squadron Leader Martin Luther, Squadron Leader Asen Ahura, Major Tobias Akwashiki, and Major Daniel Bamidele were among them. Major General Mamman Vatsa was the Federal Minister for the Federal Capital Territory. Brigadier Malami Nasarawa was the Commandant of the Nigerian School of Infantry, Jaji. The Babangida regime claimed that the presence of a large number of Nigerian Air Force members in the alleged coup plot, which included bombing multiple strategic installations with recently acquired British Jaguar fighter jets, was indicative of the plot’s primary strategy. The alleged coup plotters were drawn from all branches of the service. It was also reported that a navy frigate had been designated for deployment during the “large scale” bombardment. Babangida’s childhood friend Vatsa had also served on the Federal Executive Council, the Armed Forces Ruling Council, and on occasion the National Council of States. He was a well-known poet and writer. Major Bamidele was convicted of Treason by Misprision. He had revealed preparations to carry out a coup against President Shehu Shagari’s civilian government a few years prior, and he was imprisoned until the coup was effectively carried out. Later on, the military took control, led by Major General Muhammadu Buhari On March 5, 1986, Vatsa and nine other people were put to death by firing squad. In the inquiry that followed the arrests, Group Captains Salaudin Latinwo and Michael Ikpeme were found not guilty.
In an interview, General Olusegun Obasanjo revealed how, when they were detained, General Sani Abacha wanted him, the late Shehu Musa Yar’Adua, and the late Moshood Abiola, the hero of June 12th, dead. He made this statement during a dinner program hosted by Christ The Redeemer’s Friends International of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Lagos Province 39 Chapter, an interdenominational Christian organization. The former president said that Yar’Adua was poisoned by Abacha’s assassination team and that he was supposed to be the next casualty, but that he was spared by God’s providential intervention. “Two people had earlier told me,” stated Obasanjo. Abacha pledged that none of the three of us—including me—would escape jail or custody alive. MKO Abiola and Shehu Yar Adua. Additionally, two of them perished. Given that I survived, perhaps God has a purpose. Thus, it’s okay if the goal is for me to serve the people and, in doing so, serve God. I was allegedly planning a coup by Abacha. It wasn’t me who got arrested first. I attempted to ask for Shehu’s (Yar’Adua) release after he was taken into custody. I told Abacha that the second-most powerful man in this nation could not be detained without your knowledge when he claimed he was unaware of Shehu’s detention. He then said he would go and find out. “Abacha excluded God from his design, and as a result, it (his government) ultimately collapsed. Every single one of us and every single institution has God’s hand in it. That, in my opinion, is really credible. “I was placed in isolation for three months after being detained and brought to a home in Ikoyi, Lagos.…
