using her own hand to bring trouble on herself

so u know more than the people who arrested them while typing from ur phone abi. na celebration materials be dis abi ? u are calling explosive materials bangers. acting IGP

DesChyko:
Lol. When I heard suspicious materials, was looking to see bombs or juju. So mkponala is now a suspicious package? As if the people there have no knowledge of igbo traditions. If there's a celebration or ceremony there today, then it is perfectly normal for those to be found on a person jare. Those are just traditional knockouts/bangers for ceremonies.

hmm. Abia state wants to turn into Rivers

Officials of Benin Electricity Distribution Company BEDC and soldiers were allegedly given a chase on Wednesday after they stormed the compound of a member of the Edo Civil Society Organisations, Omobude Agho in Benin city Edo state, to disconnect his light and others over huge unpaid bills.

According to confirmed reports, the area was soon filled up with rampaging youths who resisted the officials, soldiers and also reportedly chased them away. The people also took back the electricity cables that were seized in the first place (as seen in the picture) after which they mobilised themselves and marched to the BEDC outlet in the region for a protest.

Here's an update on the little boy Abubakar Usman whose eyes were violently gouged by suspected ritualists in the ancient city of Zaria in Kaduna State few months ago. According to freelance journalist Femi Owolabi who visited the boy and his family today in Zaria, the Kaduna state government is yet to fully fulfill its promise of aiding the boy in his treatment. Read what he shared below;

I didn't want to share this before, but I just have to, so that we are all aware.

Months ago, Abubakar Usman lost his two eyes to suspected ritualists in Zaria, Kaduna State. The wicked humans used knife and other sharp objects to cut off the innocent four years old boy's eyes.

Since my recent journalistic focus is on reconstruction and resettlement of the internally displaced persons in the North-East, I didn't really pay a keen attention to Abu's case. Especially when I heard that the Kaduna State government, under the leadership of my friend, Nasir el-Rufai, had risen to the boy's case-- pledging to see to his welfare and education.

A very good friend, recently, raised Abu's issue with me and insisted I go check on him. My friend is interested in Abu's education. "I wanna ensure this boy go to school so he becomes somebody in life," my friend said.

For weeks, I was calling the Kaduna State Police PRO so I will be able to track Abu in Zaria. The officer wouldn't pick my calls, neither did he return them. As a journalist, I then used other techniques to locating Abu and his family in Zaria.

I spent some moments with Abu and his family today in Zaria.

In the coming week, I should publish a comprehensive report on Abu.

What saddens me? The Kaduna State government hasn't redeemed its pledge; of taking care of Abu and seeing him through school! Abu has been abandoned! "We were only given N180, 000, and nothing else since then," Usman, Abu's father told me.

The good news? Help is on the way for Abu! I won't leave Zaria until we enrol him in a school I found for him today!

u call this mediocrity, what do u think this guy will design if given the resources to do so. this was done out of his own hustle and with local materials... do u tink he cant design something far better if given the right sponsorship. and if I may ask what can u even design apart from criticisms.

Gozzzy:
why do we enjoy celebrating mediocrity in this country'?? people in other countries are busy coming out with helpful inventions, and we are here celebrating someone that constructed a toy house!!!! shame!!!

The bad effect of earphones and headsets cannot be overemphasised. According to a Facebook user (Adenekan Temitope) who lives in Lagos, a truck smashed the head of a man sleeping under it with his earpiece on. The young man couldn't hear when the truck started due to the music he was listening before he was crushed to death. See very graphic pictures below;

we are watching

cant' u read properly before commenting, who said this happened in Nigeria...

Untainted007:
This is not Nigeria oga Op. And more so, concluding they fought over a man is not confirmed or were you did judge in the case. So many factors can lead to two ladies fighting. It can't necessarily be because of a man.
