Crime / Hausa Trader Allegedly Kills Yoruba Driver Over N30 In Lagos by influenz: 1:18pm On Jan 31, 2017
- A tribal riot started in Igando, Lagos, after a Hausa man allegedly killed a Yoruba driver

- The duo reportedly fought over N30 ($0.06, black market rate) which led to the death of the driver

- Friends of the deceased took to the street and attacked every Hausa man they could find

Riot started on Monday, January 31, on Mojeed street, Igando Lagos, when a 40-year-old Hausa trader, Ibrahim Adamu, allegedly killed a bus driver, Lekan Adeleke.

Residents and family of the deceased reportedly blocked the street, made bon fire and chased Hausa traders out of the area.

According to a report by ThePunch, trouble started when the deceased had bought noodles worth N230 from the suspect’s son on Sunday, January 29, around 10.30pm.


He was reported to have paid N200 and promised to pay the balance of N30 the following day, which did not go down well with the suspect’s son.




The son allegedly reported to his father, Adamu, who became angry and attacked the 30-year-old Adeleke with a spiked plank.

The victim reportedly slumped and hit his head against the concrete edge of a gutter in the area.


A friend of the victim, Kehinde Akinduro, said Adamu had a kiosk where he sold confectioneries, while the son sold noodles beside the kiosk.


He explained that Adeleke had actually paid the balance of N30 to the suspect’s son.

He said: “He was joking with the boy that despite being a customer, he went and reported him to his father. They started abusing each other. At this time, the son was already preparing noodles for me on the instruction of Adeleke.

“The next thing I saw was that Adamu, who was eavesdropping, brought out a spiked plank and hit Adeleke with it. I cautioned him, but he faced me and hit me in the leg. I sustained some injuries.

“When Adeleke saw that he could no longer handle the situation, he took to his heels. But the man followed him and hit him in the head as he tried to jump the gutter. He fell and hit his head against the edge of the gutter.

“When Adamu saw that he had become unconscious, he took him into his kiosk and poured water on his head. He was doing this when a large number of residents stormed the place. When he sighted them, he abandoned the man and took to his heels.”

He said the suspect, speaking in Hausa, asked his son to flee in another direction.

“The boy escaped, but we were able to get Adamu. We called the police and handed him over to them.”

The mob was said to have destroyed Adamu’s kiosk and set it on fire after Adeleke died around 12am on Monday.


The police public relations officer, SP Dolapo Badmos, said investigations were ongoing.

She said: “It was a case of murder. One Adamu used a plank to hit a bus driver, Adeleke, in the head which led to his death. The corpse was deposited in the Mainland General Hospital morgue for autopsy."

I am proudly Igbo.

•The first Black Vice Chancellor of the University of Ibadan was an Igbo man named Professor Kenneth Dike.

•The first Vice Chancellor of the University of Lagos was an Igbo man named Professor Eni Njoku.

•The first Nigerian Rector of the then Yaba College of Technology was also an Igbo man

The first Nigerian Professor of Mathematics was an Igbo man named Professor Chike Obi – the man who solved Fermat’s Last Theorem. He was followed by another Igbo man named Professor James Ezeilo, Professor of Differential Calculus and the founder of the Ezeilo Constant.

The first Nigerian professor of history was an Igbo man Professor Kenneth Dike who also became the first black vice chancellor of the University of Ibadan.

The first Nigerian Professor of Botany was an Igbo man named Professor Eni Njoku. He went on to become the very first vice chancellor of the university of LAGOS.

The first Nigerian Professor of Anatomy and Physiology is Professor Chike Edozien an Igbo man who is also the current Obi of Asaba.

The first Nigerian Professor of Physics was Professor Okoye an Igbo man who became a Professor of Physics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, USA in 1960. He was followed by the likes of Professor Alexander Anumalu who has been nominated for the Nobel Prize for Physics three times for his research in Intermediate Quantum Physics.
In Nuclear Physics and Chemistry – again another Igbo man – Professor Frank Ndili who gained a Ph.D in his early ’20s at Cambridge Univesity in Nuclear Physics and Chemistry in the early ’60s. This young Asaba man had made a First Class in Physics and Mathematics at the then University College Ibadan in the early ’50s.

First Professor of Statistics – Professor Adichie who’s research on Non-Parametric Statistics led to new areas in statistical research.

What about the first Nigerian Professor of Medicine – Professor Kodilinye – he was appointed a Professor of Medicine at the University of London in 1952. He later became the Vice Chancellor of the University of Nigeria Nsukka after the war.

Professor Njoku who became the first Nigerian to earn a Ph.D in Theology from Queens University Belfast in Ireland. He was appointed a Professor of Theology at the University College Zambia in 1952.

The Nigerian Universities Commission (NUC) has a record of the state with the highest number of professors in Nigeria and as at 2014 that state is Imo State. You can go to this commission and verify.

Anambra state was the first in WAEC, UNITY SCHOOLS ENTERANCE EXAMS, NECO AND PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE in 2013, 2014 and 2015.

Therefore, whenever some people address you Igbos as mere traders and Keke riders, tell them that in addition to doing very well in business, science, technology and SPORTS you are also ahead in academia.

No amount of hatred can change blessings from God.

Amen

Religion / Islamic Militants Chasing Christians In Middle East Saw ‘angry Jesus’ by influenz: 2:08pm On Jan 16, 2017
-A young Arab man has claimed that Jesus appeared to them when they were going after some Christians during their baptismal service.

-According to a report by Bibles for Mideast, the incident occurred sometime last year when a church went to the Arabian Sea for the baptism of 24 new believers.

-The story was published by Bibles for Mideast, an underground ministry of the Middle East


Wonders shall never end, they say. This rightly applies to the story of a young man who narrated his story while on his way to persecute some Christians in the Middle East.

The story which is from a Christian evangelisation group is based on the account of Haroon and Rizwan whom the report claims are witnesses to the incident where Jesus stops some Islamist militants from killing some Christians.



According to Bibles for Mideast, Haroon while narrating the incident said:


"I am Haroon (name not real), an young Arab, born and brought up in a prominent Muslim family of the Middle East. My father was one of the top religious authorities, enforces Sharia law in respect to religious behavior in the state. I am a trained sharp shooter. And I was commanding a militant wing to protect the religion and taking immediate operations against its enemies.

"Few weeks ago, an early in the dawn, I got the information that a Christian group is going to have a baptism service in the Arabian sea. I picked up militants and rushed to the seashore. We were 19 members in our wing for the operation. Our ultimate aim was to kill everybody in the sea itself during the service and we wanted the world would get up with hearing this breaking news. So that Christians must fear Muslims and stop evangelizing them from our region.

"But the baptism service was over and the baptizers began to move the place in a bus before we reached at the seashore. We followed and shoot the bus several times.

"Within seconds, a giant dust storm formed in front of our vehicles and we were unable to move forward. We all got down from our cars and continue shooting through the dust storm.

"Suddenly we saw Christ Jesus appeared in the dust storm. He was angry and his eyes were like blazing fire. With a mighty voice he told us, “Why are you persecuting me.

"Oh, it was a terrible experience! His voice produced a strong wind and we all fell down on the road. Our guns flew away from us. Somehow we stood up from the road, but we were unable to talk anything. Our voice was lost.




"Jesus said again, “I came to the world not to destroy anyone; but to save you. Go in peace.”

"He disappeared. The dust storm also disappeared with him."

"We experienced both terrible fear and an abundant peace at a time. We never had such experience in our life before."

"We got our voice back. We praise and thank God, except two of us. Those two said, it’s not from God. We had a quarrel between us but they argued with some quotes. And we left the place with confusion."

"I shared about it to my father. He warned me not to tell others. But after this incident, our wing became silent from militant activities."

Reacting to the story, Rizwan, one of the newly baptized believers who spoke on his experience during the baptism ceremony said:

“We kept secret about our baptism service. But we don’t know how it was leaked to the militants. Maybe it was the militants’ plan to kill us in the sea during the baptism service. But somehow we finished our service earlier and tried to return back.”

According to him, on their way back, three or more cars suddenly caught up behind their bus. They suspected them to be militants and the driver tried go faster but couldn’t. He said they all cried out to God for protection. And suddenly something miraculous occurred.


“Suddenly we saw a giant dust storm formed behind our bus,” Rizwan recounted. “At first we all afraid of seeing the dust storm. We thought we may not be able to go beyond and will be held by the militants.”

He added that to their surprise, the dust storm instead concealed them from the militants.

Religion / Why Is It Easier To Do Wrong Things Than The Right Things by influenz: 9:36am On Oct 07, 2015
A colleague shared his experiences with me and please I need your answers so that we can help save a soul.

He stated that it is quite easier for him to a wrong thing that actually doing that which he knows is right. For instance, when he wakes up in the morning, the urge to pray will be there, and almost instantly another urge to see porn and masturbate comes which overcomes the initial urge to pray.

According to him, this has become a habit and his morning devotion time is spent masturbating and after this act he always leave the house with a sense of guilt and in the long run this affects his day. And he says that it sometimes seems as if there is a cloud of darkness hovering over him. His life have been static and nothing seem to be moving for him.

Your sincere advices will be appreciated to help liberate this young man.

This question may appear funny but in reality when you look deeply at it, you will find out that it is quite difficult.

A boy passes through seven stages in life before he becomes a man.


But if it true that a boy's life end when a girl enters, then when is the best for a boy to have a girlfriend?

Honest and matured opinion please.

Art, Graphics & Video / Artistic Impression Of Humans uncladded by influenz: 1:18pm On Sep 24, 2015
A New York-based photographer named Spencer Tunick who has been creating human art installations all over the world, calling together volunteers by the hundreds or thousands, asking them strip down to their birth suit, and photographing them in massive groups.

His philosophy is that "individuals en masse, without their clothing, grouped together, metamorphose into a new shape." He aims to create an architectural flesh work, where mass of human bodies blend with the landscape around them thereby forming a great art'

Below are some interesting collection from his architectural ideas and also as they were being composed. Warning: The following photos all depict nakeddy human bodies oh, and are not screened out! The nudity is ONLY central to Tunick's art.

Health / Boy ‘born With 3 joysticks’ Undergoes Pioneering Surgery To Leave Him With Just On by influenz: 11:43am On Aug 25, 2015
A little boy born with three joysticks in an incredibly rare occurrence has undergone pioneering surgery to correct the abnormality. According to reports, the two-year-old pictured above with his mum suffers from diphallia, a rare condition where a male is born with two joysticks.

He also had a third penis considered rudimentary, or undeveloped. In addition, the unnamed boy was born without an anus.

However, last month, he went under the knife to correct the physical abnormalities, and his family are now hopeful that he will be able to “lead a normal life”.

The boy, from Jaunpur in Uttar Pradesh, India, was able to pass urine through one of the joysticks. Only two had erectile tissue, which is responsible for sexual function. He was taken by his mother to Sion Hospital in Mumbai for the six-hour operation. Dr Vishesh Dixit, paediatric surgeon, said: “There was a huge soft boney mass and tissue to which the joysticks were attached. However, the anus was absent.”

Telling how the mass and rudimentary penis were removed, he added: “The two functional joysticks were fused into one by wrapping a mass of skin around them.”

He explained that the boy had already undergone a colostomy, where surgeons made an incision in his stomach, enabling him to get rid of waste.

Describing the latest operation, he said: “Further, an anal path was created through the boy’s rectum to facilitate the passage of excreta.”

Providing the surgery to create the anal path proves successful, the incision in the boy’s stomach will be closed in a separate procedure later this month.

Doctors said his sexual function will be and his fertility will not be affected. There have been just 100 cases of diphallia reported since 1609.
