KILLER BOLT: ELEVEN people are dead and many more have been left injured after the tower they were taking selfies on was hit by a ferocious lighting storm.

As many as 27 people were atop the 12th century watch tower in India's Rajasthan state when it was hit.
A number of visitors jumped off the Amer Fort tower in panic.

Shocking video footage shows the sky illuminated as a bolt strikes the watchtower.

Seventeen people were also seriously injured after the unbelievable weather took hold on Sunday evening, seeing them rescued by police and the State Disaster Response Force.

This comes as 30 people were killed in India after lightning storms swept across the country, seeing buildings collapse and trees crash to the ground.

The victims, from various different parts of the nation and including some children, were struck by lightning as monsoon season grips the country.

According to reports, 14 victims died in Prayagraj, five in Kanpur Dehat, three in both Firozabad and Kaushambi, and two in both Unnao and Chitrakoot.

A 12-year-old boy, a 32-year-old man, and a 50-year-old were killed in Kaushambi.

A 50-year-old and a 40-year-old were killed in Firozabad as they stood under a Neem tree that was struck by lightning.

The Rajasthan government has now called an emergency meeting of the state's disaster management department to assess the incidents on Sunday.

Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot has promised the victim's families compensation - up to 500,000 rupees (£4,800) - and offered his "deepest condolences".

Prime Minister Narendra Modi also expressed his sorrow at Sunday's tragic event.

So deep down in your heart of hearts you truly believe General Muhammadu Buhari is the problem of Nigeria??

The problem of Nigeria is not who is in charge or who is in what position.

It doesn't matter who has the title of the 'president'. The problem is with the whole system itself.

Nigeria be like heavy duty truck wey knock engine. But instead of to repair the engine or throway the truck we dey busy dey change drjver.

Understand that the 'Niger Company' now known as Nigeria wasn't built with the 'progressive interest of Nigerians at heart.


This divide and rule' thing was perfect for Africa. It doesn't matter who is in power. Whether Igbo, Yoruba or north. All you have to do is cause a divide or wahala between the inter-tribes and rule then indirectly while we focus on the wahala on ground.

The President, vice and Senate are just puppets. It's like a smokescreen. The real puppeteers are behind the screen pulling all the strings.

That's why Nigeria and Africa is below poverty level with an ever-rising cost of living all year round. While education and awareness is low..

Divide and rule worked so well in Africa it wasn't necessary to change a single thing even after the Colonial guys left with their guns.

Just like they're doing in Afghanistan.

They've left physically but they've set up the perfect system and don't need to be physically present for the system to keep on running.


Africa needs to teach her people her history so they can know who they are firstly and then use that knowledge to fight the greater enemy.

And sadly, we need to stock up on arms as much as we seek unity

That awkward moment when it rains in the middle of the desert... Just know it's gonna be bloody. That's one of India's driest states right there. It's practically in the middle of the Thar desert.

A 50-year-old and a 40-year-old were killed in Firozabad as they stood under a Neem tree that was struck by lightning.

Standing under a 'dogonyaro' tree during a lightning storm. Who give these two men these kind brains?
