After 27 Years, Gang Leader Keefe D Has Been Apprehended In Connection With Tupac’s Murder....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

In a significant development in the long-standing case related to the fatal drive-by shooting of rapper Tupac Shakur in Las Vegas in 1996, one of the last living witnesses has been charged with murder with the use of a deadly weapon. This breakthrough in the case, which has intrigued the public and confounded investigators for 27 years, occurred on Friday.

Prosecutors announced in court that Duane “Keffe D” Davis had been indicted by a Nevada grand jury in connection with the murder. Chief Deputy District Attorney Marc DiGiacomo revealed that the grand jury had been investigating the matter for “several months” and characterized Davis as the “on-the-ground, on-site commander” who had “ordered Shakur’s death.”

These charges were made public shortly after Davis, aged 60, was apprehended during a morning walk near his residence.

Davis has been a known figure to investigators and has previously admitted in interviews and his 2019 memoir, “Compton Street Legend,” that he was in the Cadillac from which the gunfire was unleashed during the September 1996 drive-by shooting.

Shakur was 25 years old when he was killed.

A raid was conducted by Las Vegas police in mid-July at a Henderson home associated with Davis. The search warrant indicated that the police were looking for items related to the “murder of Tupac Shakur.” During the raid, they seized multiple computers, a cellphone, a hard drive, a Vibe magazine featuring Shakur, .40-caliber bullets, two containers with photographs, and a copy of Davis’ memoir.

Clark County District Judge Jerry Wiese denied bail for Davis. District Attorney Steve Wolfson commented briefly after the hearing, stating, “It has often been said that justice delayed is justice denied. In this case, justice has been delayed, but justice won’t be denied.”

It is unclear if Davis has legal representation at this time, and he has not responded to multiple attempts by The Associated Press to seek comment or an interview in the more than two months since the house raid.

Shakur was traveling in a BMW driven by Death Row Records founder Marion “Suge” Knight, part of a convoy of approximately 10 cars. While waiting at a red light, a white Cadillac pulled up alongside them, and gunfire erupted. Shakur sustained multiple gunshot wounds and passed away a week later at the age of 25.

At the time of his death, Shakur’s fourth solo album, “All Eyez on Me,” was still on the charts, with roughly 5 million copies sold. Nominated for six Grammy Awards, Shakur is widely regarded as one of the most influential and versatile rappers in history.

In his memoir, Davis disclosed that he was seated in the front passenger seat of the Cadillac and had moved the firearm used in the killing to the backseat, from where he claimed the shots were fired. He also implicated his nephew, Orlando “Baby Lane” Anderson, as one of two individuals in the backseat. Anderson, a known adversary of Shakur, had been involved in a casino altercation with the rapper shortly before the shooting. After the casino altercation, Davis purportedly devised a plan to seek revenge on behalf of his nephew against Knight and Shakur.

Contempt Drama: Health Minister, Hospital MD Risk Jail Over Enugu Neuropsychiatric Hospital Case.

Published

on

A judgment of the National Industrial Court, Abuja Division, has nullified the appointment of Dr. Ngozi Unaogu as Medical Director of the Federal Neuropsychiatric Hospital Enugu and ordered the reinstatement of Prof. Monday Igwe.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

Justice E.D. Subilim, in a ruling delivered on December 11, 2025, declared the earlier termination of Prof. Igwe’s appointment unlawful and void, stating that due disciplinary procedures were not followed.

The court also held that Dr. Unaogu’s appointment was invalid because it was made while the case was still before the court, in which she was a party.

Despite the judgment being served on the defendants, reports say the orders have not been complied with several months later.

“Kogi Government Vows Never To Negotiate with Bandits, Declares Zero-Tolerance Policy”.

Counsel to the plaintiff, Mr. Michael O. Okorie, said Dr. Unaogu has continued to carry out official duties, including contract awards, banking transactions, and staff-related decisions, despite the court’s ruling.

He warned that individuals and organisations dealing with her risk doing so at their own peril, as no stay of execution has been granted.

The lawyer has also filed Form 48 against the Minister of State for Health and Social Welfare and Dr. Unaogu, signalling consequences for alleged disobedience of court orders.

He further urged the minister to review his legal advisers to avoid actions that could put him in breach of the law.

Court documents show the contempt proceedings were filed under relevant enforcement laws, warning that failure to comply with the judgment could lead to imprisonment.

The notice stated that Prof. Igwe remains unlawfully excluded from office, while Dr. Unaogu continues to function as Medical Director in defiance of the court order.

Meanwhile, reports recall that Dr. Unaogu has previously faced contempt proceedings and was once committed to prison by a High Court over disobedience of a court order.

She now risks another potential contempt sanction if the current court directives are not obeyed.

Saudi Arabia Sack Coach Renard Weeks To 2026 World Cup.

Published

on

French coach Hervé Renard has confirmed that he has been relieved of his duties as head coach of Saudi Arabia, just under two months before the 2026 FIFA World Cup.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

Speaking on his departure, the 57-year-old tactician expressed mixed feelings but took pride in his achievements with the national team.

“That’s football… Saudi Arabia have qualified for the World Cup seven times, including twice with me,” he told AFP.

Renard added, “And there’s only one coach who has taken them through both the qualifiers and the World Cup; that’s me, in 2022. At least there will be that sense of pride.”

He returned for a second spell as Saudi Arabia coach at the end of 2024, having previously managed the side between 2019 and 2023.

During his first stint, he guided Saudi Arabia to the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, where they famously defeated eventual champions Argentina in the group stage.

Renard is highly regarded for his international coaching record, having won the Africa Cup of Nations twice—first with Zambia and later with Ivory Coast.

He also previously managed the French women’s national team, leading them to the quarter-finals of both the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup and the 2024 Olympic Games.

His return to the Saudi job followed the exit of Roberto Mancini, who left after a disappointing 14-month spell.

However, Renard’s second tenure has now ended abruptly ahead of the global tournament.

Reports suggest that former Greece international Georgios Donis is being considered as his possible replacement.

A source close to the discussions told AFP that talks are ongoing between the Saudi Arabian Football Federation and Saudi club Al Khaleej, where Donis has been in charge since 2024.

Saudi Arabia are set to compete in Group H at the 2026 World Cup alongside Spain, Uruguay, and Cape Verde.

The team will now head into the tournament under new leadership as preparations continue for the global competition.
