He was acquitted but later was recorded bragging about having killed him and avoided jail. He could not go on trial again due to double jeopardy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also, HM Ngola Buba Nvula Dala Mana Cabombo of Ndongo or whatever his name was died sometime in September, which should make Chike Edozien the oldest "monarch" in Africa if his age is correct. All the listed ones born in the 1920s are increasingly frail, most "somewhat active" except VBC Onyema III and Gundonaa Samata Abudu who I think might die off radar. Orizu III definitely the most "high-profile" on the list and might even get a QO somewhere. Joseph Chike Edozien dead at 98. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's taken all day for the Nigerian media to retract the news of his death, why? Presumably they'd been waiting for school to finish so the children can run on the hamster wheel in the back room that powers the modem. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It seems he is in hospital and rumors he had passed started to spread. No one had enough brain to ask the royal palace for good 12 hours and here we are with another super old geezer failing to cop it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

drol 11,923 Posted February 10 I can't really understand if the cunt is dead or not. Condolences continue to arrive, even from the presidency, and denial seems very weak, as they were concealing the news.
