Video From DJ Olu Abiodun & Chime Amaechi’s Last Night With Money In Boot Of Car

The mysterious death of 3 close associates of Nigerian music superstar David Adeleke, popularly known as, Davido, has been filled with many conflicting details.. So one of the most talked about news in a long time doesn’t seem to be dying down.. Barely 24 hours after the autopsy report of Tagbo surfaced and Chime Amaechi’s family claimed DJ Olu and Chime were probably poisoned cause of a business deal and the Lagos State Police Command revealed that it recovered substances suspected to be hard drugs in the car the bodies of the young men were found in, a video supposed to be that of DJ Olu and Chime has surfaced.. Recall, according to the Lagos State Acting Commissioner of Police, Edgar Imohimi, “there was no mark of violence on the bodies of the deceased”, however, “autopsies would be carried out to know the cause of death” and the substances found in the car would “be analysed.” But now, Olisa Blogazine has released videos purportedly taken by DJ Olu and Chime on their last night on earth. Olisa source indicates that the videos, which showed them laughing and having fun, with no inkling that death was hovering, were recorded on their phones. An intriguing part of the video showed boxes of money in the boot of their car. If this video was really taken on the same day the young men died, then it begs the question: what happened to the money? Is it tied to their death? The fact that the Nigerian police didn’t list boxes of money among the items found in the car with the young men.

In Yaba, Lagos, the office of Courteville Business Solutions Plc, was shut over a tax debt of over N313 million. A company official told the FIRS team that he was aware of the company’s debt, but not sure of the exact amount. He explained that the company’s Group Managing Director was not available to clear up the matter, an explanation ignored by the enforcement team which ordered staff to vacate the office building for it to be sealed. In Enugu, the office Afri-Hub, an Information Communication Technology firm, situated at the Institute of Management and Technology, was similarly shut. The company owes N2.54million. The agency's enforcement team led by Ruth Mandeun said the exercise was not a witch-hunt, but to recover tax debts. In Abuja, two engineering firms were shut-down at Apo by the FIRS. HeriProm Engineering limited was sealed for owing N32.3million. Equally sealed was the office of De-Tither International Limited, which has a tax liability of N20.2million, made up of income tax, withholding tax and education tax from 2008 to 2013.

FIRS Shuts Firms In Warri, Lagos, Ilorin Over Unpaid Taxes

The Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS), yesterday, ramped up its tax enforcement drive when its teams shut down premises of companies with tax liabilities in Warri, Lagos and Ilorin. In Warri, Delta State, the enforcement team visited two companies.At JAD Construction, along Enerhen Road, the FIRS team evicted all the staff before sealing off the premises for unremitted taxes in excess of N400million, accumulated from 2013. Efforts by a management staff, simply identified as Mr. Ben, to present some tax clearance documents as proof of payment were rebuffed. The by the enforcement team insisted they had a duty to seal unless there was verifiable proof of payment of the said arrears. "These defaulters had the option of clearing the arrears to avoid being sealed even at the point we came in. Now they still have a duty to settle the debt to get unsealed. If they fail to settle the arrears or attempt to operate under FIRS lock and key, we have other measures of enforcement against them,” said Mandeun. At Bredero Pipelines Services at Sedco Road, Uvwie Local Government Area, the team met a team of policemen at the premises. The policemen claimed the company has been shut for more than three years following a court injunction restraining the workers or management from working there pending determination of court case between management and staff. The company has an aggregate debt tax of N178,638,649.90 In Lagos, the enforcement team, led by Chinazor Edeh, visited Dee Jones Petroleum and Gas Limited at Beachland Estate, Apapa.

The enforcement team in Ilorin, Kwara State, visited Kwara Hotels, where the new management, Integrated Services Limited, explained that it was neither aware that the previous management had a N10.5million tax liability nor of correspondences between the hotel and the FIRS.
