LAGOS — Nigerian vehicle imports jumped 78 per cent in the first five months of 2011 compared to the same period last year, indicating consumer confidence is recovering after national elections, industry officials said on Tuesday. Car sales in Africa’s most populous nation are a proxy measure for private purchasing power, a leading economic indicator which is not formally available in Nigeria. Nigerian port figures showed new vehicle imports increased to 18,377 units in the five months to May from 10,324 in the same period of last year, according to Mohan Sethi, general manager at Dana Motors, which imports Kia vehicles to Nigeria

OWERRI – Homicide detectives have commenced investigations into the death of one Ngozi Onyii Onuneme from Ogiri, Isiala Mbutu, Aboh Mbaise Local Government Area of Imo State.

Vanguard gathered from a villager, who pleaded anonymity, that trouble started when the deceased had an argument with his mother, Mrs. Gladys Onuneme, who wanted to know why he had injured some other person.

According to the eyewitness, “the argument eventually snowballed into Ngozi beating up his mother.”

The source told Vanguard that on hearing the agonising cry of his mother, Ngozi’s elder brother came out, rescued his mother and, thereafter, beat up the “unruly boy”.

Continuing, the villager said Ngozi sustained injuries but was not treated before he went to bed, adding that the family woke up the next morning to behold the lifeless body of the young man.

Spirited efforts to get the Police to comment on the incident failed as the Police Public Relations Officer, PPRO, neither picked his calls nor responded to the text message sent to him.
