My parents are using my destiny to get wealth –varsity undergraduate
Demilade spoke with our correspondent in hiding, maintaining that he would never return home to his father, Mr. Fatayi Osholonge, a lawyer and his mother, Olufunke, who is an evangelist.
Soft-spoken, with a mien that gave a hint of the affluent home he came from (a fact he confirmed), Demilade went into a narration that sounded much like a story out of a novel.
He told our correspondent, "It started when I was 10 years old and I started to see a young boy with blood coming out of his mouth.
"Sometimes, I saw the boy in a dream, sometimes I saw him even when I was wide awake but I was always the only one seeing him. I told my parents about it but they waved it off as mere dreams.
"It continued till I was 17 and I started to bleed from the mouth as well. The first time it happened, I just noticed blood coming out of my mouth. I would wake up sometimes and blood would be coming out of my mouth. Sometimes, I would be wide awake and notice the taste of blood in my mouth."
Asked what step his parents took when he told them, he alleged that they did not take him to the hospital for a checkup even after seeing the blood.
In the family home at Ajah area of Lagos, Demilade alleged that he frequently experienced spiritual attacks. He was asked to elaborate.
"Sometimes, I feel someone beating me while I sleep without actually seeing the person. Sometimes, I would lie in bed and not be able to move my body at all no matter how hard I try," he said.
He told our correspondent that he became so frustrated with the strange experiences and the fact that he never got help.
"As the years went on, I started noticing that my parents were engaging in occultism activities because they visit herbalists and strange prophets," he alleged. When asked what evidence he had of such activities, Demilade said they sometimes took him along.
Demilade also alleged that in 2014, his parents took him to twoIfapriests in Ondo town in Ondo State, during which incisions were made on his waist. He lifted his shirt and showed the incisions on the left side of his waist.
He toldSaturday PUNCHthat the bleeding from the mouth continued despite the visit to the priests.
Our correspondent asked whether Demilade's other siblings in the house also experienced anything similar to the claims he made in his allegation and he explained that when he discussed it with his younger sisters, they told him none of them experienced such things.
How then did he arrive at the conclusion that his parents were behind his "spiritual attacks?" Demilade alleged that his suspicion became clearer to him when he ran away from home.
He said, "I was a 200 level Mass Communication undergraduate at the Ajayi Crowther University, Oyo, but I decided to drop out so that I could be out of reach of my parents.
"After I fled from home, I told my step-brother (Michael Ebun), who is my mother's son from a previousmarriage, about my problem and he took me to the house of a prophetess, Mrs. Mercy Oyebo. As soon as we got to the woman's house, she prayed for me and I vomited blood.
"I got deliverance and gave my life to Christ right away. Since that day, I have not vomited blood. I have been a good Christian since then.
"I stayed along with my step-brother in the woman's house between March and April 2015 for intense prayer sessions. We left after the sessions and I have been living with a friend at Maryland since then.
"But I realized my parents were behind my problems when my mother started calling and cursing me over the phone. She said she would make me run mad. There was a time she was reciting incantation when she called me and I froze."
Demilade declined to disclose his current home address.
"My parents are rich, they are using my destiny, that is why they want me back home desperately," he alleged.
He said life is hard for him currently because he no longer enjoyed the affluence of his parents but maintained that he would rather suffer physically than be turned into an imbecile.
Asked about the motive behind bringing his story to the public, Demilade alleged that his parents got his step-brother (Ebun) arrested on charges of kidnapping.
"They locked him up for three days for kidnapping me. He only tried to help me. I have even spoken with the police on the phone that I was not kidnapped, but they insisted that I should come over to Panti (Department of Criminal
Investigation, Yaba), where the case has been transferred to. If I went there, they would hand me over to my parents," he said.
Saturday PUNCHlearnt that Ebun has since been released on bail.
But issues took a different dimension when our correspondent contacted Demilade's parents. They maintained they could only speak in the presence of investigators at the DCI.
During the encounter at the DCI, Mrs. Osholonge said she believed her son was still holed up in the prophetess' house and that she had hypnotized him to the point that he was not thinking straight.
Demilade's mother gave an off-the-record detailed narration of what she believed was the reason behind his son's strange behavior, but she insisted she did not want this information published.
When asked how she would respond to the allegations of occultism, spiritual attack, visits to the herbalists, incantations and curses made by her son, she said all she wanted was to have her son back.
Our correspondent learnt that indeed there was an open case of conspiracy and kidnapping on Demilade's issue, which the prophetess (Oyebo) is still wanted for.
A police officer who is familiar with the investigation said, "We have spoken with this woman (Oyebo) on the phone. All we need is for her to come and give her side of the story. But all she did was send me a nasty insult by SMS. If she did nothing wrong, why is she in hiding?" He showed our correspondent the SMS.
The officer also said the police need Demilade to come forward to prove that he was indeed not kidnapped.
But Oyebo has said the officer was the one who first spoke rudely to him after she called him to explain her side of the story.
When our correspondent spoke with Oyebo, she alleged that she had made several attempts to see Demilade's mother but that she had refused to show up. But Demilade's mother said Oyebo is the one who had been avoiding her.
The prophetess said, "Did the boy sound like someone who was hypnotized when you spoke with him? I told the boy to go to the office of the police public relations office to present himself and he did.
"I wanted to have a talk with the mother because the steps the boy was taking were not good for the family. I wanted the matter resolved. I did not want him to live like a homeless child. But she refused to show up.
"The boy said there were so many things he knew about his parents which was why they wanted him back so he does not spill the secrets. If the boy said going to his parents would mean the end for him, would I be the one to drag him to them?
"I swear to God almighty the boy is not under my roof. I realize that if the boy is handled with care, he might just travel out of the country if he finds the means.
"I have reported this case at the National Human Rights Commission in Lagos. I have been advised to write a petition to the assistant inspector-general of police, Zone 2, Onikan Lagos and send a copy to the Lagos State commissioner of police. After I have filed the petition, I will show up and we will tell Demilade to come and tell the police if I kidnapped him or not."

US behind Kashamu’s house arrest—FG
Adoke told one of our correspondents on the telephone on Saturday that the request came last week.
On May 6, the minister had disclosed to one of our correspondents that there was no extradition request for Buruji by the US.
Adoke said this while responding to a suit filed by Kashamu to restrain the NDLEA and 13 others from extraditing him to the US.
"The request came shortly after I spoke with you. It came last week," he said.
He said immediately his office received the request it was passed to the appropriate organ of government for implementation.
The implementation process involves filing an extradition request before the appropriate division of the Federal High Court.
Responding to further inquiry, he confirmed that he was referring to the NDLEA as the appropriate organ of government to take up the extradition request.
"Of course, it is a drug-related offence and the appropriate government agency that handles such cases is the NDLEA," Adoke said.
The NDLEA confirmed the confinement of the movement of Kashamu to his Lagos residence on Oladipo Street, Lekki Phase 1 pending his appearance in court on Monday (tomorrow).
The spokesperson for the NDLEA, Michael Ofoyeju, said the action was to perfect his extradition to the US for drug-related charges.
In a statement sent via email to one of our correspondents by the spokesperson for the agency, Michael Ofoyeju, the Chairman/Chief Executive of the NDLEA, Ahmadu Giade, was quoted as saying the operation was in line with the legal process of extradition.
The statement further quoted Giade thus, "The agency has commenced extradition procedures against Senator-elect, Buruji Kashamu in line with the laws of country. He has been in contact with his attorneys and will appear in court on Monday."
He also confirmed that the residence of Kashamu was raided by the operatives of the agency at about 5am on Saturday.
No fewer than 10 operatives of the agency were said to have invaded the Lagos residence of Kashamu, around 5am on Saturday to effect his arrest following a purported extradition request from the United States on drug- related charges.
They were said to be heavily armed and were ruthless.
As soon as they stormed his residence,SUNDAY PUNCH gathered that some of the NDLEA operatives brought out a yellow tape and cordoned off the area, while others went straight to the gate.
After they (operatives) reportedly knocked on Kashamu's gate, his security men were alerted about their mission.
Kashamu's security men at this point demanded the arrest warrant from the NDLEA men but they could not produce any.
Based on this, they were prevented from entering the residence.
However, this action was said to have infuriated the NDLEA officials who stormed the compound after destroying the gate.
The media aide to Kashamu, Austin Oniyokor, in a statement made available to our correspondent on Saturday, explained that the NDLEA operatives after they had forcibly entered the compound, headed for the living rooms and began to destroy all the doors one after other, in a desperate move to arrest Kashamu.
An NDLEA source said they (operatives) closed in on the bedroom of the PDP chief who was said to have threatened to commit suicide if the agency tried to extradite him to the US forcibly.
Oniyokor described the latest onslaught on his principal as a confirmation of the alleged plot to illegally abduct him despite the pending suit against his abduction.
Oniyokor, however, accused a Peoples Democratic Party leader, Chief Bode George, as being behind the onslaught against his boss, "in a bid to score cheap political points."
He said he is doing this through his wife who is the Director-General of the agency.
"We urge all well meaning Nigerians to prevail on NDLEA, Chief George and his wife to toe the path of the rule of law and follow due process.
"Nigeria is not a Banana republic. The United States being the bastion of democracy, the rule of law and due process, should not lend itself to this kind of illegality."
However, George, who spoke to one of our correspondents from the United Kingdom On Saturday, described the allegation as a 'huge joke.'
The PDP leader said he did not have the power to give his wife orders because she was not the chairman of the NDLEA and the agency adheres to due process.
He said no right thinking Nigerian would believe that he was behind Kashamu's ordeal because his name had never been mentioned before now. He added that he had never been involved in Ogun State politics before and wondered how Kashamu's detention could benefit him (George).
He said, "I don't understand what this is all about. How does Kashamu's arrest affect the price of milk? My wife is not the chairman of the NDLEA, so how can I give her orders when she has a boss? Also, that agency always follows due process.
"I am happy that the NDLEA has issued a statement to the effect that Kashamu's arrest has nothing to do with me or politics. I do not dabble into Ogun State politics.
"Kashamu is like a younger brother to me and he is not known to speak in such a manner. I am sure it is his media adviser that concocted this falsehood."

We have no money to import fuel — Marketers
There are indications that the current fuel scarcity may not abate unless the Federal Government pays the outstanding N200m reportedly being owed the oil marketers as subsidy claims.
The oil marketers, who confirmed to our correspondent that they had stopped importation, said they could not continue with fuel importation as result of inadequate funds.
They spoke through the Executive Secretary, Major Oil Marketers Association of Nigeria, Mr. Obafemi Olawore.
Olawore, along with the Nigeria Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas Workers, also denied the report that they were on strike.
He said they were still waiting for the Federal Government to call them to another round table on how to pay the N200bn fuel subsidy owed them.
Olawore said, "We are not on strike. People are just painting us the way they want. We are not importing because we don't have the money to buy the products. The government has not invited us. The only thing we have heard is the resolution of the Senate on Thursday and I think that they are going to invite us soon."
Out of N356.2bn subsidy the government reportedly owed oil marketers, the Ministry of Finance paid the sum of N156bn about two weeks ago.
With about five days to the handover of power to a new administration at the federal level, tanker drivers in the country have also stopped lifting fuel from the depots, leaving many filling stations without the product and others selling at exorbitant prices.
The General Secretary, NUPENG, Mr. Isaac Aberare, said tankers drivers would start lifting the product as soon as they received the directive to do so, insisting that they were not strike.
He said, "If there are products in the depots, we will go there and load. Remember that the Lagos State Government gave tankers drivers 48 hours to leave the road instead of clogging the whole road and making navigation difficult; we have complied with that instruction. Any time there are products, we will go and load."
In its response to the lingering fuel scarcity in the country, the Senate on Thursday directed its Committee on Petroleum Resources (upstream and downstream) to commence a full investigation into the causes of the persistent fuel crisis.
The directive was made following a motion by the Deputy Senate Majority Leader, Senator Abdul Ningi.
Ningi said, "We need to know whether fuel scarcity has come to stay. We need to know whether it has become part of our lives. We need to plan.
"By planning and talking about it, we are now sensitising Nigerians to brace for the impending issue of fuel scarcity whether it is going to be here permanently or it is temporary."
As a married woman, I still get advances from men –Faith Morey
My name is Faith Morey and I am an international model. I am from Ikwerre in Rivers State. I grew up in a religious family. My grandmother taught us family and religious values. I have three siblings, my biological father is deceased and my mum is a retired nurse. I am presently rounding off my Bachelor's degree programme in Human Resources at Lone Star College, Houston Texas, United States of America.
Modelling
I started modeling in 2008, after the Rivers State MVP basketball competition. I won the competition and while I was being interviewed, they called for a five-minute break. As I watched television back stage, I saw Naomi Campbell on the runway. Right there, I decided that was what I was supposed to do. I wanted to be like the woman I saw on television, who was bold and confident.
In 2009, I entered for the Most Beautiful Girl in Nigeria pageant, but I never made it to the second batch. My life changed after Nigeria's Next Super Model competition in 2009.
Love and Marriage
I am grateful for my modeling career because it led me to my husband. You have to love someone to marry them and stay married. The love and bond between couples keep their marriage. My husband is supportive of my career.
Motherhood
Being a mother has changed my life in a tremendous way; I wouldn't imagine a life without my son. Being a mum taught me patience, unconditional love and how to be open to negotiation. I love every aspect of motherhood. Being a mother keeps me on my toes. You do not know what it is to be selfless until you have a child.
Competition
Competition among models in Nigeria and abroad is the same, but the only advantage is the good payment. The international industry is very developed and organized. In Texas, the perfect model is a white girl with blue eyes and there are only a few companies that hire black models. Black girls fight for a place in the international modeling industry.
Personality
I am outlandish. When people see me, they say I am pretty and perfect, and my close friends say I am a weird average girl. I could say I am shy when I walk into a room full of people. However, I am confident at the same time because I am not afraid to express myself. I am principled, old fashioned and family-oriented. I am a goal getter and very ambiguous.
Male distraction
When you are backstage, you barely have the time to check out male models; you would be busy trying to calm your nerves before you get on stage. I have a family to consider. I would not want to throw my family away for my guilty pleasures. Even as a married woman, I still get advances from men. It only reminds me that I am a beautiful, black and intelligent woman. I would check the mirror the day I stop having admirers.
Challenges
As a starter, I had to learn to be a lady. Nobody wanted to give a dress to a tomboy. My toned legs posed a challenge. Nigerians have their version of how a sexy leg should look, and a curved or toned leg wasn't it. I used to wear trousers to castings so they could pick me for my walk and not my legs. I came to the US and I realized the sexiest legs were the curved legs. Now, when I walk on the street, women approach me to ask who my trainer is. Also, as a six-foot model wearing a size 11 shoe, it was difficult to get my size. I used to keep my legs behind my seat, so people would not see my toes sticking out of my shoes. It was quite embarrassing.
Hobbies
I love to go to the movies with my husband, son and friends; take a good run to clear my head or play basketball with my brothers. My family comes first. And most of the time I travel with my son when I have out-of-state jobs or international shows. I try to juggle between family, career and school. Also, I have interests in acting and image consulting.
Beauty tips
Everyone is different, what works for you might not work for another person. My son is almost four years old and I never visited a gym until last year because my brother persuaded me to do so for health reasons. Some people have good genes; others have to work out to stay fit. I try to eat healthy, I fail some times and I do not go hard on myself. Next day, I try again. I still struggle each day to maintain a healthy diet and workout routine.
Style
People mistake style for brand. My style is a reflection of how I feel. Often times, I combine outfits from different designers and when I step out, people scream and ask where I got the outfits from. I like shorts, shirts and a pair of heels. I love shoes and I splurge on them when I shop.

Alfa runs mad, dies after drinking herbal mixture
The 24-year-old was said to have first acted strangely and behaved violently before dying on Saturday.
PUNCH Metrolearnt that a day to the incident, he had complained to his friend, Akintunde Akinwunmi, that he was ill.
Akinwunmi was said to have gone to a herb vendor around the area, who sold the herbal mixture to him.
It was learnt that shortly after taking the concoction, he started laughing hysterically.
He reportedly died soon after.
The matter was said to have been reported at the FESTAC Police Division.
It was later transferred to the Department of Criminal Investigation, Yaba.
Our correspondent learnt that the police had arrested Akinwunmi and the herb seller.
A police source said Taiye was resident in Ondo State and had come to Lagos on a visit when tragedy struck.
He said, "There are three friends involved in this case. The deceased lived in Ondo State, while the other two are living in Lagos.
"The two in Lagos travelled to Ondo to join Taiye for the naming ceremony of another friend, who was living in Idi-Iroko.
"All the three friends returned to Lagos on Thursday, last week.
"The following day, which was Friday, Taiye said he had a stomach upset and they went to get him some herbs to treat the ailment."
It was learnt that he was served a mixture ofjedi-jediand 'small leaf' which were soaked in alcohol.
Our correspondent learnt that after the victim took the drink, he started acting strangely.
A relative said his friends stated that he was laughing hysterically and talking out of senses.
He said, "He started by laughing at everything they were saying and they didn't understand what was happening.
"Later, he touched the private parts of one of them. When they tried to hold him, he ran out of the house."
In the process of running, it was gathered that Taiye fell and injured himself in the head.
He was said to have continued his flight, but was later found with the security men at the entrance into the estate. The men explained to his friends thatAlfahad lost his mind.
The security guards reportedly chainedAlfaand handed him over to his friends.
Our correspondent was told that he gave up the ghost early Saturday morning.
A source said, "Around 3am on Saturday, he died. People called his name, shook him, but he did not respond."
The herb seller, Bilikisu Ayilara, said she did not know anything about the death of the victim.
She said, "I have been selling herbs for a long time and I have never had problems.
"I don't know the man that died. His friend usually patronised me. He came that day and said his friend had a stomach upset.
"I gave himjedi-jediand small leaf and that was all. It was later I learnt the man who took it ran mad and died. I am innocent."
The victim's father, Olaiya, appealed to the police to release his son's corpse to him.
He said he was not ready to pursue a case against the suspects.
He said, "I don't think it was the herb that killed my son. Although he did not have any mental problem before coming to Lagos with his friends, he died because it was his fate.
"All I am interested in is for the police to release the corpse of my son to me and release the suspects."
The Police Public Relations Officer, Kenneth Nwosu, said he would call back, but he had yet to do so as of press time.

Truth About Making Love with Your Woman during Menstruation
In fact, some religions still adhere to these practices; however, medically and secularly speaking, there is no reason not to have s*x on your period.
In fact, s*x while you are menstruation can help ease the symptoms of premenstrual syndrome…
Many women say that orgasms can ease their cramps and the orgasmic contractions of the uterus offer a soothing internal massage. Also, orgasms release endorphins, natural painkillers and mood enhancers, which can help soothe the cramps, headaches, mild depression, and irritability sometimes associated with periods. Women should enjoy s*x more when they are menstruating because of increased feelings of fullness in the pelvic and genital areas, which offer a head start on arousal.
There is one caveat, though: Safe s*x is even more crucial during your period. Your risks of s*xually transmitted diseases and infections are higher than normal during this time because the cervix opens to allow blood to pass through.Unfortunately, this creates the perfect pathway for bacteria to travel deep inside the pelvic cavity. A woman is also more likely to pass on blood-borne diseases like HIV and hepatitis to a partner during your period and more likely to develop yeast or bacterial infections because the vagina's pH during menstruation is less acidic. Finally, there is still a chance that you could get pregnant during your period (unless you're on the pill), so don't assume it's safe to forgo contraception.
No muss, no fuss. If you are worried about staining your sheets, you can lay a towel down underneath you. You can also take things to the bathroom and have s*x in the shower or the bathtub. Not only will it be a sensuous and exciting change from the norm, but it will also help to wash any blood away.
You can even enjoy oral s*x during your period; it's perfectly safe and healthy — although, as I said above, it's very important to practice safer s*x techniques (like using a dental dam).
Maintain your s*x appeal. Sometimes when that time of the month rolls around, all you want to do is throw on your old sweats, lie on the couch, and gorge on feel-good snacks and ice cream. Unfortunately, foods such as these will only serve to make bloating and cramps worse, and lead to lethargy that will only add to your bad mood.
Instead, commit to maintaining your s*x appeal during your period. Some women claim that they feel s*xy and powerful during their periods, so tap into that side of you and go out for a night of fun. Getting active will help to keep your mind off your cramps, and your partner won't be able to resist your sensual moves.
So ladies, your period doesn't have to slow down your s*x life!

The philanthropist recognized at international levels has revealed her secret to the banging body that has become a part of her brand.

Federal Government Finally Convert Four Colleges of Education to University of Education
The decision was taken at a meeting of the council presided over by President Goodluck Jonathan.
The Minister of Information, Patricia Akwashiki and Minister of Education, Ibrahim Shekarau, briefed State House correspondents of the meeting's outcome.
Shekarau listed the affected colleges of education to include Adeyemi College of Education, Ondo (now Adeyemi University of Education, Ondo); Federal College of Education, Zaria (now Federal University of Education, Zaria); Federal College of Education, Kano (now Federal University of Education, Kano); and Alvan Ikoku College of Education, Owerri (now Alvan Ikoku University of Education, Owerri).
The minister explained that the colleges of education are part of the 21 federal colleges of education that had been awarding degree programmes in the last three decades under the close supervision of the different universities they had been affiliated to.
He said the council considered the need for further quality in the teaching profession, hence the conversion of the colleges to universities since more graduates would be needed as teachers.
"We are heading to having more graduates in the teaching profession and hence the need for these universities to produce graduates in education. If we need quality education, we need quality teachers," he said.
Shekarau explained that the next step was for the Ministry of Justice to prepare amendment to the laws establishing the colleges.
This, he explained, would be followed by some administrative changes.
The minister also said the council had approved the establishment of the Federal University of Health Sciences in Otukpo, Benue State.
Until the approval, the university is said to be the College of Medical Health Sciences under the Federal University of Agriculture, Makurdi.
He said the institution had now been granted autonomy as part of continuous efforts to ensure production of quality graduates into the various fields of medicine and sciences.

RUMOUR!!! See PDP chieftains who may replace Mu’azu
Many weeks after the Peoples Democratic Party was defeated in the 2015 general elections, the party has been embroiled in one crisis or the other since its poor performance in the polls. The party chieftains, who are expected to have learnt a major lesson from the PDP pre-election internal crisis, appear to have been divided over the real reasons the party failed in the polls.
Some PDP governors, including Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State and Babangida Aliyu of Niger State insisted that members of the party's National Working Committee must resign to give room for fresh crop of leaders to manage the affairs of the party.
