"The Kind Of Man I Will Like To Marry" - 2013 Miss Nigeria, Ezinne Opens Up

For Miss Nigeria, Ezinne Akudo, life as a beauty queen is all about working closely with the victims of sexual violence.
In an interview, the newly crowned
damsel and graduate of law from Asia State University disclosed that her decision to work with rape victims stemmed from her experience last year after her close friend fell victim.
"It was a very touching experience for me. My very good friend was raped last year and you can only imagine the trauma she went through. That made me
realise how close it could get, how
vulnerable we all are. It could happen to anybody including me; rape is the trending evil right now. I was there by her side all through and I watched her pass through it all. I am happy she is okay now and has gotten over the
traumatic experience."
"It's going to be a total campaign against sexual violence in Nigeria and right now, we are at the drawing board. We are
looking at talking to victims and creating awareness about sexual violence. We will be talking to parents, their kids and
all stakeholders. Because of the stigma attached to rape, we are also working on an emergency help line, which will provide counseling for victims. We'll be talking about rape and how to avoid it," she said.

On her saddest moment:

According to Akudo, her saddest
moment since she became queen was losing her close friend who died a few weeks after she was crowned.

"I lost a friend of mine a while ago. He was my campus pastor. His name was Emanuel Akibi. It affected me a great deal because we were very close. We were friends throughout my days at Abia State University (ABSU). His death was a big shock for me," she lamented.

Her love life:

Beauty queens are not expected to talk about their love lives on the pages of newspapers.
However, Akudo painted a picture of her ideal man. "I have not lost any of my friends because of my new crown, but I want to keep issues about my love life private. I love a guy that's passionate about serving God. Any guy that doesn't really love God can't love a lady. I am impressed about guys who are God fearing. I am not a fan of very fair guys. I'm down with chocolate skinned guys," she concludes with a soft laugh.

Female Police Officer Assaulted And Stripped Naked In Public

According to reports, a female Police officer was yesterday attacked and almost stripped naked by a dreaded wealthy man.
The police officer, Inspector Tochukwu Offoegbu was allegedly on duty when the the ‘big man,’ who owns a park in Onitsha, approached her, allegedly telling
her that he would facilitate her removal from Onitsha as he did to one Archibong.
She then demanded to know what she did that would warrant her removal, so he reportedly slapped her for questioning him. Eyewitness also revealed that his
boys allegedly tore the female officers uniform, leaving her almost naked.
‘’She ran for her life into the Police post to avoid the peering eyes of the public before the Area Commander Benjamin
Nwordu asked all of them to come to the area police station, Onitsha.
‘’That man cannot be arrested because last time he slapped the Commissioner of police because of park matters and so the governor closed the park and now, it is an
Inspector. I fear,” the eyewitness
narrated.
It was alleged that this same man
slapped the Commissioner of Police last year.

Nothing Can Make Jonathan Succeed – Mallam Nasir El-Rufai

“President Goodluck Jonathan is
grossly incompetent, he doesn’t
listen, he doesn’t even understand the issues.
I am sorry! I know the man more than those that are shouting with Jonathan because when he was my friend, none of them even knew him.
I knew Jonathan as a deputy governor in 2002. That was when I first met him and we have been relating. So, all these new found Jonathan lovers should just shut up.
I know him and I know what he can do and what he cannot do. So, please, they should just leave me alone. Those that want jobs can go and take jobs. I don’t want”- Mallam Nasir El-Rufai
