– A 17-month-old baby girl was allegedly killed by her own mother – The woman reportedly fed her little daughter a teaspoon of salt – The child died of salt poisoning, her cruel mom now faces up to 20 years in jail A blood-curdling incident has taken place in South Carolina last week, where a 23-year-old mother intentionally killed her baby daughter. According to local media reports, Kimberly Martines, aged 23, gave little Peyton a spoonful of salt and shortly afterwards the girl started suffering seizures. She had been admitted to hospital and put on life support but it was too late — soon doctors declared her brain-dead. Commenting on the killing Barry Barnette, a lawyer of Mrs Martines, said: “She (Martines) basically did that to try and get her husband’s attention — to get him back into her life.” Peyton’s family paid tribute to Peyton in a touching statement: “She never cried and was a silly baby making everyone laugh. You could not help but smile when you was around her. She was a little diva who loved her nails done and her favorite thing ever was Minnie Mouse.” Martines could be jailed for 20 years if she is found guilty of homicide by child abuse. Young children are particularly at risk of salt poisoning (hypernatremia) because their kidneys are not fully developed.

In many countries, people have cell phones and don’t hesitate to use them as frequently as possible. Selfies, journey reports, cooking experiments, inter-continental messages, non-stop communication… To many users, mobiles make as essential part of their daily routine as breathing, eating and sleeping. But few wonder if such trend is that good for our health? If used properly, cell phones are your best allies, but too many people abuse these devices, which eventually results in many minor and major troubles. 1. Facing germs According to scientific data, your most used device has 10 times more germs on it than a toilet seat. This happens because you rarely bother to clean your phone (admit it finally). And now think of all that cases when people cook, clean the house, walk a dog and (dear Lord!) use the restroom and straight jump into texting without washing their hands. Believe, it happens more often than you can imagine. Researchers say that phones can host E. coli bacteria able to cause fever, vomiting, and diarrhea. Scary, isn’t it? However, there is one way to avoid spreading germs and it’s not rocket science to figure it out: wash your hands with soap and water (at least after using the restroom) and regularly clean your phone with an antibacterial wipe. 2. Seeking the perfect shot The statistics of deaths caused by dumb cell phone usage is terrifying. Earlier this summer, a German tourist died after posting a photo in Machu Picchu because he went into a dangerous restricted area to make the perfect snap. He ignored safety signs and plunged over the edge of a cliff. Another tourist, Colleen Burns, was in the middle of capturing the Grand Canyon when she tripped on her own feet and fell backward into the canyon. A South Korean resident died in the Amazon rain forest after falling off the Gocta waterfall, and a Japanese tourist died while taking a selfie at the Taj Mahal after not handling gravitation. Unfortunately, these incidents aren’t isolated, and tons of people break the law and risk their health and life to get the perfect shot. The moral of their stories is obvious: watch where you take selfies and mind that no image is worth your life. 3. Risking to contract cancer Scientists are yet to discover whether cell phone use causes cancer, but you shouldn’t ignore this possibility. The electronic pulses this device uses for operation may damage your body, a brain in particular, plus, cell phones emit radio waves, which also seem suspicious to users. Though the evidence of that this type of energy is harmful needs to be investigated further, try to reduce cell phone use overall, especially when it comes to children. 4. Talking and texting while driving Though it may sound strange to you, but cell phones are responsible for 1.6 million auto crashes each year, which result in a half million injuries and 6.000 deaths. Unless you want to be 23 more times likely to crash your car, stop texting and making selfies when you’re at the wheel. Do yourself and your traffic companions a favor by going hands-free when driving. It could save your life and lives of passengers you happen to transport. 5. Struggling with vision Doctors, eye specialists, in particular, have been ringing the alarm for a long time warning that cell phones, tablets, computers and television cause eye strain and other vision problems. About one- third of adults reportedly use electronic devices up to six hours a day, which eventually leads to eye redness or irritation, dry eyes, blurred vision, back pain, neck pain, and headaches. So, the strategy you need to opt for to let your eyes stay sharp longer is to stop staring at a screen too closely. |

Nobody saw the appointment of the 63-year-old coming, following the resignation of Sunday Oliseh and the false announcement of Paul Le Guen as coach who rejected the offer. Here are the five facts about the Gernot Rohr 1. He was a former player: The German was a former player where he featured for notable European clubs in his days including Bayern Munich and Bordeaux in the early 70’s and late 80’s. 2. He coached more French clubs: Rohr spent most of his coaching career with French clubs where he had three different spells with French Ligue 1 outfit Bordeaux, also with Creteil, Nice, Ajaccio and Nantes. The highest point of his coaching career in France was when he took Bordeaux into the UEFA Cup finals when they eventually lost to Bayern Munich in 1996. 3. He managed one African club side: The services of the German tactician was also employed by Tunisian club Etoile du Sahel where he was sacked after one season in charge after finishing outside the Champions League position. 4. He has managed three African national teams: Rohr was coach when Gabon co-hosted the Nations Cup with Equatorial Guinea in 2010 where the roller coaster ride ended when Gabon were knocked out on penalties at the quarter finals stage. Niger also hired the German before the 2013 AFCON in South Africa, but failed to qualify from the group stage. 5. He worked with the German FA: After he was sacked as coach of Burkina Faso in 2015 owing to poor strings of result, the 63-year-old worked with the German Football Federation on developmental programs before he was named Technical Adviser of the Super Eagles.

– Presidency has denied claims by former chairman of the House of Representatives committee on Appropriation, Hon. Abdulmumin Jibrin that he has been blocked from meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari – Kawu-Sumaila a legislative aide to Buhari said there had “never” been a time Jibrin requested through his office to see Buhari that he was denied access. The Presidency has denied claims by former chairman of the House of Representatives committee on Appropriation that he has been bloocked from meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari over the alleged budget padding. The presidency said Mr Jibrin is attempting to drag the President into the budget padding allegations adding that Jibrin should know the “protocol” on how to see Buhari. Reacting, the SSA to President Buhari Kawu- Sumaila said there had “never” been a time Jibrin requested through his office to see Buhari that he was denied access. He said, “The way he has been going about this issue is unfortunate. He is dragging the names of innocent people into it. “He has not approached me that he wants to see the President. If he makes a request, I will facilitate it for him. He knows the protocol.” Commenting on his role in Dogara’s meeting with Buhari, Kawu-Sumaila said he only acted as a facilitator stressing that he neither participated in the meeting nor knew the outcome. “When the Speaker wanted to see Mr. President, he told me. I did my part to facilitate it. I was waiting at the office while they met. I was not at the meeting with them. “It was after the meeting ended and the Speaker came out that I saw him off. The same thing would have happened if Jibrin requested to see the President.” Meanwhile, former Speaker of House of Representatives now Sokoto state Governor, Alhaji Aminu Tambuwal is believed to have thrown his weight behind embattled Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara as he battles accusation of padding the 2016 budget. Tambuwal who is the immediate ex-Speaker of the House remains one of the Speakers in Nigeria without any corruption scandal. Also, Advocacy for Integrity and Economic Development (AIED), has described as despicable and a rape on the fight against corruption the recent directive from the ruling All Progressives Congress against Hon Abdulmumin Jibri n barring him from making further public communication on the corruption issues currently ravaging the house. www.naij.com./920868-padding-presidency-slaps-abdulmumin-jibrin-buhari.html?">https://https-www.naij.com./920868-padding-presidency-slaps-abdulmumin-jibrin-buhari.html? |

“I don’t want to see any of my pastors looking like fellows from the training camps of Al-Qaeda,”? I don't know that the man is as egocentric as this. Even Jesus has beard. And because you don't keep your own, no pastor of your church must keep his own. Baba wanna be a demigod. They only do what you do.... well, you're a mathematician. Keep on playing with the brain of the dogmatic followers of yours. |
