So everything from the bush is bush meat?
You enter the bush to defecate, get spooked by some strange noise and in blind panic you run out and get hit by a car. Does that make you bush meat?

Sleeping with a 16yo is bad enough- statutory rape. Getting her pregnant and making attempts to abort the baby is evil. I hope he pays for his crimes.

However, the title suggests that he got her murdered to cover up the pregnancy and the story states that she died in the process of aborting the baby. If the story is true, he didn't murder her cos there was no intent. His crime is rape and covering up her death.

No one deserves what he did to her. I hope justice or karma takes charge.

Both so fine...kids super cute

Godwin Maduka is a world renown Pharmacist and Anastesiologist with a medical practice in Nevada USA. Havard trained, Nigerian American philanthropist with extensive links with the US Medical board and the United Nations.

He started life as a poor boy from a tiny village in Nigeria who excelled academically and was fortunate to secure a part scholarship to the USA.

America rightly recognised this impoverished but exceptionally brilliant student as an asset and gave him full scholarship to finish school, a job and citizenship to keep him in the country, loans and land to establish a practice as seen below:

"...Maduka’s brilliant mind earned him scholarships at U.S. colleges. He finished his bachelor’s degree in chemistry at Rust College in Mississippi in less than two years, earned a doctorate in pharmacy at Mercer University in Georgia and a medical degree from the University of Tennessee. He finished his postgraduate training and residency in anesthesiology and pain management at Harvard Medical School and Beth Israel Hospital before setting up his practice in Nevada in the 1990s."

He was able to acquire a property in Nevada according to Clark County records to establish the Las Vegas Pain Institute, where he employs over 80 people. He has since opened several branches in the US and around the world.

Yes, he remembered the poverty at home and went out of this way to alleviate people's suffering but he didnt relocate to Umuchukwu. He stayed back and transformed his outfit into the largest pain management centre in Nevada.


He has become a global authority in chronic and acute pain management, anesthesiology, and interventional pain management.

He is also a Clinical Faculty Supervisor of Pain Management/Anesthesiology at Touro University Nevada’s College of Osteopathic Medicine.

He was certified by the American Board of Anesthesiology in 1998 and fulfills the role of Medical Doctor for the Nevada State Board of Medical Examiners.

Now, Sarrki, if you want to draw attention to a good deed, just do so without an ulterior motive. The bolded portion below is the major aim of your write-up.

Back in the late forties, the Yoruba elite met with the sage, Chief Obafemi Awolowo to complain that this outsiders from across the niger were buying up and developing lands all over the place and sought to stop them. The wise Awolowo simply told his people not to mnd them. That all is well.

And yes, all is now well for the Yoruba, today. The can easily afford to carry placards and tell ndi Igbo to go home. Same story in Kano, Abuja, Ibadan, kaduna and portharcourt.

I respect the late Chief Awolowo as a brilliant and well-meaning sage and visionary and his legacies speak for him. However, some of our founding fathers' policies were separatist and backward and they would not have reasoned that way if they knew that technology was going to integrate the world.

Nigeria will not progress as a nation if people keep reasoning like you and buying your version of patriotism.

Advocate for strong institutions, promulgation of enabling legislation and enforcement of exsisting ones. Allow citizens and foreigners with economic value to invest and collect taxes.

Go regional if you must but dont subtly preach hate, tribalism and violence. It won't get the country anywhere.

I am in Togo at the moment for my usual business and the information given is very wrong. A Nigerian guy who was dating a Togolese girl had issues with the girl and they both stabbed themselves. The girl decided to call her Togolese street tugs but the Nigerian boyfriend had already left the house so they attacked the other Nigerians staying in the house. They wanted to turn the story to a rape matter but people already knew the story and that brought about the intervention of the police and the Nigerian embassy.

Please no one was killed and they are not attacking or manhunting Nigerians or anything of such. The Togolese government is even involved in the matter and some of the Togolese guys involved in the issue have been arrested. As we speak the said girl who caused the issue is on the run and they are looking for her.


Thank you.

Thanks for the clarification. I've been trying to wrap my head around the story but it didn't jell.
A Nigerian man raped a Togolese girl to death
Her people came and attempted to lynch every Nigerian at sight-without seeing her body
It turned out to be false.

The media needs to be very careful.

Nairaland!

It's your call. I never knew that ladies were supposed to have a 'reasonable excuse' to turn down an advance.

"Gratitude turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos into order, confusion into clarity...it makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow."

This is heartwarming to read, stories like these abound everywhere in our daily lives, it's only online that weak people hide behind anonymity to show their flaws in form of hateful bigotry.


Reminds me of when Chief Alex Ekwueme expressed gratitude to Otunba Subomi Balogun for taking care of his house during the Civil war and handing over the complete rent fees when the former came back to Lagos. In turn, Ekwueme was in a position to influence granting of a banking licence to him in later years (FCMB). People are inherently good!!

Wao! Very heart-warming!

Like Dike said, 'the wall and the bridge is all in the heart'

It's better to build bridges.

Threads like this convince me every day that we need to be human first.

I'll always have fond memories.

I was brought up to revere Catholic Priests but according to Dike Chukwumerije's 'The Wall and the Bridge', no culture is older than being human. Yes, I know that there are two sides to this story but that school has a history of maltreating students for little or no reason and the owner comes off as a megalomaniac.

Yes I'll always have fond memories, not of the school really but of the friends I made in my teens.

I remember Linc. He had a brief stint in Nollywood.
