#BBNaija: Celebrity publicist Cornel Udofia reacts to Ifu Enada's sexual harassment claims

Once again, Big Brother Naija housemate Ifu Ennada has dropped names on the show. This time, she accused celebrity publicist, Cornel Udofia, saying he nearly took advantage of her when she was 16.

According to her, Cornel Udofia took her Purse on a Saturday and refused to return it till she had to visit him at his residence late in the night. She said the Entertainment publicist was trying to harrass her till she left his house. "His erection was already showing", she said he pushed her out of the house by midnight because she refused his advances.

Reacting to the allegation, Cornel issued a statement that reads;

We refer to a  posting that went viral on the internet earlier today. The malignant  online report was one that was purported by one of the contestant of  ongoing Big Brother Contestant named Ifu Ennada. She accused the award winning publicist and Chief Executive of the CMC Group- Ambassador Cornel Udofia of sexual assaulting her some time ago.

Ambassador Cornel Udofia is an outstanding professional who is renowned for both his creative profundity as well as a high level discipline, one characteristic that had paved way for him in several quarters including his well endured working relationship with top shots in the entertainment industry.

We at CMC seldom reply to libelous remarks but this particular reaction is sacrosanct in order to set the records right and lay every rumours of this nature to rest. At no point was the said lady harrassed by Ambassador Cornel Udofia and therefore appeal to the general public to discountenance such lies as it is unfounded, baseless and mischievous.

We assure our clients, associates and partners of our resolve to be at our best in delivering nothing but the best in all endeavours.

‘I will run for president in 2019’ — Fela Durotoye joins Alliance for New Nigeria

Fela Durotoye, a consulting guru, leadership coach and public speaker, says he will be running for president, come 2019.

The 46-year-old declared his intentions on Thursday, adding that he has researched all the national parties for a few months and has settled for the Alliance for New Nigeria (ANN).

“In line with our Values one of which is to ‘be a role model worthy of emulation’, I had to decide to get involved in the political arena rather than staying on the sidelines and only challenging others to go in,” he said.

“It is my hope that as I step unto the political scene, many more of our brightest and best will arise to heed our nation’s clarion call to contest for elective offices, win the elections, and most importantly collectively deliver good governance to our nation.

He said the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) cannot deliver a new Nigeria.

“Therefore, to be clear, I am aspiring to contest as a Presidential Candidate in the 2019 General Elections. A lot of people have asked me ‘FD, what party will you be running on? Is it APC or PDP?’

“Whilst it is true that these parties may have formidable grassroots structures, I strongly doubt that these old parties with their old ideology (of God-Fatherism also known as Selectocracy, Rulership, Money Politricks etc) would be able to deliver to us a New Nigeria.

“And so, over the last few months, I have researched into several political parties to determine if their ideologies, vision and values resonate with those we share together on this Network.

“I am glad to announce that one party has resonated more with me than any other; sharing common ideology, principles, and a truly democratic internal process, that is open for all to aspire.

Argentine Police find $62m worth of cocaine in Russian embassy

Police in Argentina have seized nearly 400 kilos of cocaine from the Russian embassy in Buenos Aires and arrested several members of a drug trafficking gang.

Patricia Bullrich told a press conference that the drugs discovered in an annex of the embassy had a street value of around 50 million euros (about $62 million).  “A gang of narco-criminals was trying to use the diplomatic courier service of the Russian embassy” to ship the drugs to Europe, she said.

She told reporters that Russian and Argentine police had decided to mount a sting operation after the Russian ambassador informed them of the drugs find in December 2016.  “The cocaine was replaced by flour and monitoring devices were placed to monitor delivery” of the 16 bags of the drug, Bullrich said.

She said the sting had resulted in the arrest of five suspects two in Argentina and three in Russia. The drug, of “very high purity,” was destined for Russia and probably also Germany, where the suspected mastermind lives. “We believe the German police will arrest this fugitive,” Bullrich said.  

The minister said Russian security service agents “came to Argentina on three occasions to assist in the investigation”, which took more than a year.  One of the two people arrested in Argentina is a naturalized Russian who was a member of the police force in Buenos Aires, said Bullrich.  Investigators believe the cocaine likely originated in Colombia or Peru.
