Gildas Tohouo, managing director of Maersk Line, a major
shipping company in the country, was attacked at his residence in
the Ikoyi area of Lagos on Sunday night.
A source, who disclosed this to TheCable, Not Nairalaw
said some of the domestic workers of Tohouo planned the attack in
which the wife of the shipping expert was killed.
Both Tohouo and his wife are foreigners living in Nigeria. While
the man is from Cameroon, the late wife was from Bulgaria.
The source said during the operation, the husband and wife were
locked in different rooms. The late woman was said to have been
forced to transfer some money to her attackers after which she was
forced to drink acid and suffocated with pillow.
Those who carried out the attack reportedly gained access to the
house through an electrician who is currently in police
custody.
Tohouo was said to have placed a call through to the chief
security officer of the company who led policemen to the scene
before the suspects escaped.
The electrician and his friend who attacked the couple were
immediately arrested, according to the source.
Bala Elkana, police public relations officer in Lagos, confirmed
the incident to TheCable but said he did not want to comment on the
identity of the victims.
“We have an incident on someone who was attacked with his wife.
Both of them were stabbed. The wife died and he is still alive and
responding to treatment. Those who carried it out are in our
custody. One of them is an electrician in the estate, who was
assisted by his friend. Their aim was to steal from the man. They
were there to rob,” Elkana told TheCable.
The development comes one year after Sunday Ani, a Togolese
cook, confessed killing Ope Bademosi, chairman of Credit Switch
Technology, at his residence, still in Ikoyi, Lagos.
The police are yet to issue a statement on the incident.
Tohouo who has been a long term staff of Maersk, serving in
Guangzhou, China, Cameroon, was appointed into the position as MD
in Nigeria in 2016. He also oversees Maersk’s operation in Benin,
Niger, Togo and Ghana.

Environment Minister Harps on Tackling Climate Change in
Madrid
The Minister of Environment, Dr. Mahmood Mohammad Abubakar has
called on nations across the globe to give the issue of climate
change the attention it deserves, stressing that it is a global
threat to world peace and development.
Speaking today during the side event organised by Islamic
Develop Bank on Climate Finance at the ongoing COP 25 holding at
Madrid, Spain, the Minister stated that:
“Every single nation, either in the middle of the ocean, at the
edge of the desert or in the middle of it need to do something
about Climate Adaptation, Mitigation, Resilient and Nationally
Determine Contributions in addressing climate change.
“There are common denominators in the Climate Change issue that
every countries across the globe must do something about, and
Nigeria is not an exemption. We have been very active in the
Climate adaption and we will continue to progress in this regards
to contribute to global efforts at ameliorating Climate Change
being the biggest threat to the planet at the moment.”
Furthermore, the Minister emphasised the commitment of the
Federal Government of Nigeria led by President Muhammadu Buhari not
to relent in its effort at realising Nigeria’s Nationally Determine
Contributions (NDC) stating that a lot has been done and much more
will be done.
Bemoaning the actions of developed countries regarding climate
financing, Dr Mahmood called on developed countries to fulfil their
commitment on climate funding particularly to African
Countries.
He said, “I share the sentiment of other African Countries of
not getting enough of Climate Funds. We are calling on the
developed countries who are also the major pollutants to fulfil
their promises of providing more climate funds to the developing
nations.”
Dr. Mahmood expressed optimism that Nigerian delegates to COP 25
will negotiate to get as much as possible of the climate funds as
they can bargain for, while at the same time be innovative to
generate its own green funds noting that climate financing is a
cooperation for global survival.
“We will aim as high as we can. This is something a lot of
countries are aiming at. It is a global cooperation for survival
because we belong to one planet. Whatever happens in Nigeria can
affect America vice-visa.
We will do whatever it takes in our own capacity to see that we
acquire as much as we can while at the same time be as innovative
as we can to generate our own green fund internally” the Minister
emphasised.
