Meet the Biafra Sympathiser that Helped Nnamdi Kanu Install Transmitters on MTN Mast (Photo)

The identity of the engineer who assisted Biafran revolutionist, Nnamdi Kanu in illegally installing radio transmitters on MTN masts in the South-east has been exposed.
David Nwawuisi
 
A pro-Biafra engineer working with Ericsson Nigeria Ltd helped in the installation of Radio Biafra transmitters on MTN masts in Enugu state, TheCable has gathered.
 
David Nwawuisi, who is currently standing trial with Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), is a field maintenance engineer with the Swedish technology company.
 
His role in the saga, sources told TheCable, was to grant access to IPOB engineers to mount the transmitters on MTN’s masts under his care. Although MTN owns 12,000 base stations across the country, the maintenance is outsourced to Ericsson Nigeria Ltd and Huawei, a Chinese networking and manufacturer of telecommunications equipment.
 
The transmitters, which were used in boosting the signals of Radio Biafra allegedly transmitted from London, UK, were discovered by the security agencies on MTN masts in Enugu and Anambra states.
 
TheCable learnt that the second suspect, Benjamin Madubugwu, helped with the installation of the transmitters in Anambra also in concert with IPOB engineers. Both men were said to have been contacted by Chidibere Onwudiwe, a suspected IPOB member, for the job, according to court papers filed by the federal government. Onwudiwe is now said to be at large.
 
Government said the transmitters were smuggled into Nigeria by Kanu and installed between April and May 2015. Madubugwu and Nwawuisi are standing trial on the charge of managing an unlawful group accused of treasonable felony.
 
The National Broadcasting Commission (NBC) struggled for weeks to locate and bring down Radio Biafra transmitters.

Five Annoying Things Men Do During S*x

Image
File photo used only for illustrative purpose   Agreed, men do all they can to please their women in bed; but sometimes, they still manage to annoy women during that sacred moment.   The following are some of the things that can annoy your woman during s*x:   1 • You leave your socks on   Maybe you just like keeping your feet warm — or perhaps you think leaving your knee-high socks on is as erotic as her wearing heels to bed. Well, this is wrong, because it’s actually a major mood-killer for women. For one, it is not visually attractive, says a licensed marriage and family therapist, Monica Lieser.   Another not-so-innocent implication: Sporting socks during s*x may suggest you’re so agenda-driven — get in, get off! — that you’re unwilling to even fully undress. If you like the idea of staying partially clothed, leave your pants around your ankles instead of stripping down to your socks, Lieser suggests.   2 • You repeatedly touc...

Dear dpg , I seriously think that you people should turn your radar to the UNIVERSITY OF AGRICULTURE, MAKURDI. The kind of injustice, malpractice and corruption going on in that school is unprecedented.  The latest one is the battle for the VC's office, Since the present VC Prof. Emmanuel Kucha will be leaving by November. He has left the school damaged without recognition. I wish you can visit or talk to any of your sources in makurdi.  Anyway, more than 11 people contested for the position, as at the day before yesterday, they were reduced to 9, who went in for the final rounds of vetting and interview yesterday. The outcome was released and the favorite candidate came first. That was the news yesterday, but this morning (today) the result have changed, due to external politically corrupt individuals who call themselves stakeholders in the state, who had never one day contributed to the success of the students or staff of that school.  To come and force a ...
