The Attorney-General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami, and the authorities of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency on Saturday agreed with the Senate to halt the alleged abduction of the senator representing Ogun East Senatorial District, Buruji Kashamu, to the United States.

Kashamu had alleged penultimate week that the anti drug agency was conniving with the authorities of the US government to abduct him from Nigeria, through unlawful means.

Kashamu’s lawyer, Ajibola Oluyede, had in a petition to the Senate Committee on Ethics, Privileges and Public Petitions, claimed that NDLEA operatives had perfected strategies to forcefully take him to the US in order to answer drug related charges.

He had urged both the NDLEA and the office of the Attorney-General to drop the alleged plan and follow the rule of law in prosecuting Kashamu.


It specifically directed the two government establishments to stay any further action on Kashamu’s alleged drug charges in America, pending thorough investigation of issues raised in Kashamu’s petition against them.
Addressing journalists in Abuja, the chairman, Senate Committee on Ethics, Privileges and Public Petitions, Senator Samuel Anyanwu, said the parties had resolved to halt further action on the matter pending the determination of the suit on the matter at the court.

Anyanwu said, “The Senate, AGF, NDLEA have unanimously agreed to stop further harassment, intimidation, abduction and extradition of Kashamu until the conclusion of the matter at the law court.

“We had also agreed that the rules of law and due process must be followed in the case.”

An Illinois bride (pictured above) died just minutes after saying "I do" to the love of her life when the motorcycle she and her groom were riding to their reception crashed, family said. Jana Miles-Burnett, 40, exchanged vows with William Burnett, 31, in a city park in Illinois about 6:30 p.m. Saturday.

The couple had met through friends and decided to wed after a whirl-wind romance, family told Inside Edition. "After two months, they knew they wanted to be together," the woman's daughter, Sarah Smillie, said.



"There wasn't a time that I had seen her happier. If they were together, she was smiling," Smillie, 22, told IE. The wedding ceremony reflected their relationship and was light and full of love, she said. "I’ve never been to a wedding where there was so much laughter. They were stumbling over each other's words because they were nervous, but they were laughing," Smillie said. "It was the most relaxed and funny thing I've ever seen at a wedding."
After being pronounced husband and wife, the couple hopped on Burnett's motorcycle and waved on family to start a procession to the reception, Smillie's husband, Khole Smillie said.

"They all got to the reception and they saw ambulances and firetrucks going back." It was during the procession that a deer ran onto the road and into the newlyweds' lane, causing a crash that threw Miles-Burnett, 40, to the ground. "There were three or four motorcycles together and William tried to swerve and did everything he could. It (the deer) had turned around and darted right at the bike. There's some things you cannot control," Khole Smillie said.

"Deer were going crazy that night. It's mating season and it's a rural road. Coming back, we saw 30 deer in a 20-minute ride running across the road." Still wearing her wedding gown, Miles-Burnett was rushed to the hospital but could not be saved and was pronounced dead an hour later. "At least she didn't suffer. Everybody else just suffers the pain now," Khole Smillie said.

Her new husband suffered minor injuries in the crash. "We've seen each other every day since then," Smillie said of her mother's husband, who in less than a day of being married, became a widower. "He's holding up. He's like me. Every hour or so he breaks down."

Don't say that. It's not a normal occurrence here too. It's just an unfortunate situation we should always pray to God to avert.

krall:
On Thread topic you typed "Ibuprofen"
Anyway, this thing can't happen to nigerians.

A 13 year old boy, Calvin Lock, has lost more than 65% of his skin, after taking strawberry-flavoured liquid Nurofen. He came down with this viral infection in 2012. Now, the family of this young boy have been dealt a second devastating blow - after being told he is going BLIND.

After taking the strawberry-flavoured liquid Nurofen for children, his body reacted to it. His whole body burst into painful blisters and his hair and fingernails fell out.

Below is how Dailystar puts the sad story, with more photos

"Calvin lost 65 percent of his skin and had to be put on a life support machine for three days after the severe reaction.
Doctors initially told his family he only had chicken pox before diagnosing Stevens Johnson Syndrome which causes the cells in skin to die before shedding like a snake.But Calvin's condition worsened and he developed the more serious form of the condition, Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis.
He spent nearly three weeks in Addenbrooke's Hospital receiving treatment before being allowed back to his home in Littleport, Cambs.

His mother Robyn Moult, 40, and stepfather Daryn Chambers, 49, were amazed he survived the condition which affects three million people a year.But they have now been left devastated after revealing Calvin has now developed a painful eye disease that will leave him blind in both eyes within the next two years.The teen already struggles to see the board at school and can no longer play video games and has to have eye drops put in every hour of every day.
The youngster also suffers chronic fatigue, full body scarring, mouth and throat problems, depression and has been diagnosed with PTSD.

Robyn, who has three older children, said: "It's an autoimmune condition which will never go away.

"His body will constantly attack itself forever and it's devastating to watch.

"Calvy feels like he has constant grit in his eye, it's extremely painful for him. I try to make him take responsibility but I also don't want to nag, I feel helpless.

"If he forgets to put his eye drops in he's left rolling on the floor in agony. The condition left him with memory loss and this means he frequently does forget.

"He struggles to run around with his friends, it's so much to recover from and he keeps trying to fight it and can't accept that his life has changed.

"His personality is different now, what he went through was so traumatic that he needs treatment for PTSD.

"He's so intelligent and bright but now he can't be bothered with school, he doesn't see the point because he doesn't think he has a future without his eyesight."

The couple are now planning legal action against the NHS, claiming the original misdiagnosis has made his condition much worse.

They believe Addenbrooke's could have done more to prevent the infection and its side effects if staff had acted sooner.

The couple say he was twice wrongly diagnosed with chickenpox and a specialist witness employed by their legal team said the diagnosis should have been put to a more senior doctor. They also believe he would have recovered quicker if he had been transferred straight away to the burns unit in Essex.

Robyn said: "There should have been a thorough investigation.

"Clearly the doctor should have consulted a senior member of staff about Calvin's diagnosis.

"He definitely should have been transferred straight to the burns department to prevent more trauma and scarring.

"His care was inadequate and it's left him with debilitating conditions. "I'm determined he will have a career and an education, and we want to be able to buy him the equipment he will need, such as audio technology, to help him through life."

Calvin fell ill on September 19 with a sore throat and Robyn gave him the Nurofen after his GP said he had a viral infection.

Six days later he returned to the GP with a rash and was diagnosed with chickenpox - which SJS is often mistaken for - and given antibiotics.

The next morning, swelling and rashes had appeared across his body and he was taken to Addenbrooke's Hospital.

Doctors there also diagnosed chickenpox but it took 24 hours to admit him as an in-patient by which time he was struggling to breathe and unable to walk, talk or see.

Calvin was put on a drip as staff started treated more than 200 painful blisters but his condition deteriorated and he was put on a life-support machine.

He was transferred to a burns unit where surgeons removed affected skin from 65 per cent of his body.

He now suffers Severe Ocular Surface Disease in both eyes - which causes severe conditions affecting the corneas of his eyes.

The excessive scarring from the reaction caused cornea erosions, mucous membrane scarring affecting his eyelids, and trichiasis, where the eyelashes grow inwards.

He has had to have operations to attempt to fix his sight, electrolysis to rid his eyes of his eyelashes and further surgery to stop his eyelids from turning inwards.

He also has growing vitreous adhesions which causes the gel that fills up the inside of the eye to shrink, liquify and stick to the retina - resulting in blindness.

Calvin will be talking about his experience next year at The House of Commons where we will be campaigning for National SJS Awareness and launching the first NHS Awareness Poster Campaign.

He and his mum have just had their charity SJS Awareness officially registered and started a website sjsawareness.org.uk Addenbrooke's Hospital declined to comment.

Nigerian music industry has so much metamorphosed. It's no longer business like they did during the times of Alex O and Akex Zitto. The reason been that there's more money and more audience now. The latest technology has seriously made the songs cheap to buy and enjoy, these days.

You have no idea how much bills you pay in the UK. If you convert the money, you should convert the bills too. Trust me you don't want to know.

I live in London. I see things like this everyday. The part I still do not comprehend is why people send their wives abroad to struggle. London is a struggle. Ladies get enticed easily with money jare. Simple advise, don't leave your wife alone in London without feasible arrangement to join her.
