Woman Cries For Imo Governor’s Help As Their House Is About To Collapse Due To Poor Drainage In Owerri (Watch Video)

Many houses in Owerri Imo State Capital are on the verge of collapsing due to poor drainage system constructed by former Governor Rochas Okorocha’s administration.

The house has been exposed by heavy flooding and is about to collapse.

The family affected by flooding in Owerri Imo State calls on Governor Ihedioha to come and save them. Their ouse is about to collapse due to the very poor drainage constructed by Rochas Okorocha’s administration.

The road was very good before Rochas took over as governor. He removed the strong drainage system on the road as he said he wanted to expand the road. The next gutter they built was very poor. After Rochas left as governor the gutter caved in and the woman’s house is about to collapse.

The works/spilbert road is currently about to be cut off by heavy erosion due to poor drainage and shabby road construction by Rochas Okorocha’s administration.
The lady speaking int the video is a sister to the man who owns the house. The man is disabled. He is also a Director in Imo State Ministry. His wife and children can be seen in the video standing with the lady speaking. They are calling on the state governor, Emeka Ihedioha to come to their rescue.

Education / Anambra University Lecturer Falls In Class, Smashes Laptop To Demonstrate by massmediang: 10:30pm On Jul 25, 2019
Varsity Lecturer Falls in Class, Smashes ‘Brand New’ Laptop To Demonstrate Impact of ICTs (Watch Video)
A lecturer in Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University (COOU), formerly Anambra State University has played a trick on his students to show them how Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) had stolen the soul of man.

The unnamed lecturer in the department of Mass Communication set his laptop on a table in front of Masters Degree students to commence his lecture. One of the students later narrated what happened.
He suddenly stood up and pretended to have missed his step while attempting to sit back on his seat. As he fell he used his hand to shove the laptop on his table to the floor. The laptop shattered as it fell. The lecturer knelt before the laptop, expressing worries to further make the act look real before his students. The students were shocked. Some of them screamed and stood up to assist the lecturer who suddenly started making mockery of them for expressing more worries over the shattered computer than their teacher who fell down. One of the students had already started saying the class would replace the lecturer’s laptop without asking whether the man got injured.
The lecturer explained to the students that this was the summary of what ICTs had done to the soul of man. The lecturer told them that they were more worried about the computer that got smashed because humans beings today are “Walking ICTs”.

The Laptop was actually a non-functional scrap the lecturer had brought in for the act but the students never suspected it was not his original laptop which he usually used in class.
The lecturer further used the scenario to teach the students the Technological Determinism theory which explains how technology has had an impact on human action and thought.

Politics / Rochas Okorocha Kinsmen Beg Ihedioha To Save Them From Getting Cutoff By Erosion by massmediang: 11:24pm On Jul 24, 2019
This report has been in the news for a while.



It is about a major road linking Ideato North and South Local Government Areas of Imo State to Orlu town and the rest of the state.

This is where Former Governor Rochas Okorocha comes from. He is precisely from Ogboko in Ideato-South LGA.



The road was fixed three times in the past yet it keeps collapsing.

People from Ideato area are now calling on Governor Emeka Ihedioha to fix the road to save them the hardship they would face once the entire road is cut off by erosion.

The gully erosion which cut of one side of the road has started eating into the second and only part of the road plied by motorists.

In the next few weeks the entire Ideato will be cut off from Orlu town and other parts of the state if nothing is done fast.

A family in India found a wild tiger “relaxing on a bed” in their house following a deadly monsoon which flooded parts of South Asia this week, according to Indian conservationists.

In an image released by India’s Wildlife Trust, the massive predator can be seen lounging on a bed in the unnamed family’s home in the village of Harmuti, in the northeastern state of Assam.

The tiger is believed to be have come from the neighboring Kaziranga National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site, home to tigers, elephants, bears, and the world’s largest population of one-horned rhinoceroses.

“Our vet is making plans with Assam Forest Department to tranquilize a tiger that has entered a house,” the group said in a social media post Friday. “Assam floods bring in unusual guests!”

Education / Lecturer Celebrates His 10,000th Quiz By Giving Students Quiz In Their ‘dream' by massmediang: 11:23pm On Jul 23, 2019
The story sounds strange but it happened in one of the state Universities in the South East where a lecturer, wearing gray hair for the special celebration, met with about 120 students of a particular class in their dream for his 10,000th quiz.

Massmediang gathered that a lecturer in the Department of Mass Communication of that University known for giving countless quizzes had been keeping record of the number of quizzes he had given. The lecturer who had spent 15 years in the department, always gives quiz in every class he teaches. When the quizzes got to 9,999, he decided to celebrate the 10,000th quiz in a special way – by giving his students quiz together in their dream.

It was further gathered that in the morning after the quiz, the lecture and the students met in class during his lecturer and agreed not to disclose what transpired during the dream quiz to anyone that was not in the dream class for the quiz. About 120 students were involved in the dream quiz project.
According to the lecturer, “This is a historic attempt to take communication to another level. It was real. We know what we saw. We don’t want to trivialize it so we will not be discussing it with anybody for a while. That’s what ground-breaking academic adventure is all about. The students were very impressive. They followed instructions and showed utmost commitment to the academic adventure.”

Politics / Ihedioha Begins Removal Of Okorocha’s Overhead Iron Bars And Trees In Owerri by massmediang: 4:43pm On Jul 22, 2019
Governor of Imo State, Emeka Ihedioha, has commenced removal of the iron bars which former governor Rochas Okorocha placed across the major streets of Owerri.

Okorocha who is now the Senator representing Imo West constituency, used the iron bars and artificial palm trees to beautify the state capital.

But Ihedioha seems to want the state capital to look different so his administration has embarked on the removal of all the iron bars across streets in the state capital. The trees are also going down one after the other.

Massmediang gathered that this action by Ihedioha is coming with mixed feelings among Imo people as some of them are happy with the action while others feel that this is tax payers’ money being wasted. Some feel that Ihedioha should face more important projects while others feel that most of Rochas Okorocha’s numerous projects, including the iron bars and artificial trees are remind them of the wasted and bad governance of the past administration and should be removed.

Family / Indian Man Hasn’t Cut Or Washed His Hair In 40 Years (watch Video) by massmediang: 9:27am On Jul 19, 2019
A 63-year-old man in India who hasn’t cut or washed his hair in over 40 years has to keep his tangled 6-foot-long locks wrapped in a head cloth just to walk around without stepping on them.

Sakal Dev Tuddu, a resident of Mandada village, in Eastern India’s Bihar state, claims he has been growing his hair long since he was 22. For some reason, he didn’t cut his hair for a whole year, and when he woke up one day he noticed his locks had become tangled into a ‘jatta’ (dreadlock). He considered it a blessing from the Hindu god Shiva, so from that day on he never cut or washed his hair again. Today, his impressive jatta measures around 6 feet and reaches all the way to the ground and trails behind him. To keep his hair from becoming even dirtier, Sakal keeps it wrapped in a white cloth on top of his head whenever he goes out.
Ever since he started letting his hair grow, Sakal has become known as ‘Mahatma Ji’ among the people of Mandada, as a sign of deep respect. He is believed to have healing powers, and people come to him from all over India to try his home-made herbal remedies.

Agriculture / Handsome Goat Goes Viral For Looking Like A Korean Pop Star by massmediang: 8:35am On Jul 16, 2019
A handsome Saanen goat in Malaysia is the first to reach online celebrity status for looking like a Korean pop star.
Ramos, an 11-month-old billy goat at Muhammad Livestock Farm in Perak, Malaysia, went viral last week after his owner posted photos of him on the farm’s Facebook page. People instantly fell in love with his blonde hairdo and goatee, and some social media users even compared his beauty to that of a K-pop star. Ramos’ owner, 21-year-old Ahmad M Fadzir, told local reporters that the handsome goat loves getting photographed and turns to pose for the camera whenever he sees one.

Fadzir said that he fell in love with Ramos the moment he laid eyes on him. He was in Terengganu shopping for female goats, because goat milk had been in high demand recently, but as soon as he saw Ramos, he knew he had to have him, so he paid another farmer RM750 ($183) for him without hesitation. The proud owner started posting photos of his handsome goat on Facebook, but he was surprised by the overwhelmingly positive feedback.

Who doesn’t dream of money falling from the skies?

For drivers along the I-285 west passing by Dunwoody, Georgia, dreams became reality earlier this week when about $175,000 in cash came flying out of an armored truck.
But incredibly, many drivers that stopped to pick up money by the handfuls are returning them to the Dunwoody Police Department.

“We’ve had seven people come in with varying amounts, from $2,100 to … $1,” Sergeant Robert Parsons of the Dunwoody Police Department told InsideEdition.com.

Parsons explained that so far, they have recovered about $4,400 and are hopeful more people come forward with their findings but “we understand most of the money will never be returned. We are realistic,” Parsons said.

However the insider insisted that the presenter’s pregnancy will be kept private and they doubt there will be ‘any magazine shoots any time soon’.

Travel / Man Who ‘loves’ Being Intentionally Bitten By Sharks Say ‘fear Is A Funny Thing’ by massmediang: 7:23am On Jul 14, 2019
This is the unbelievable but interesting story of Jeremiah Sullivan, a marine biologist who has been intentionally beaten by sharks over a thousand times. In fact, exposing himself in the deep sea to get beaten by sharks is part of his job and research activities. Read his explanation of why he takes such huge risk and see how odd this world can be.

“I’ve been bitten thousands of times,” offers a chuckling Jeremiah Sullivan. “Been thrown around a bit. Beaten up pretty good. Nearly had my teeth knocked out. Certainly chewed on a lot.”
He’s talking about sharks.

Since the early ‘70s, Sullivan has been the world’s leading chronicler of human-shark interactions. A bearded, shredded-up marine biologist in his 60s, he’s taken thousands of dives, and been intentionally bitten by sharks more times than he can count in order to test his custom-designed suits of armor to protect humans from shark bites.

“We’re studying human-shark interactions, and the only ones I’m interested in are those that are most accurate and realistic so that we can protect anyone who happens to be in the sea and learn the behavioral range and capabilities of these apex predators so we can conduct safer interactions,” he tells me.

On the evening of July 17th, National Geographic will air the special Man vs. Shark, featuring Sullivan being intentionally bitten by a deadly, 14-foot tiger shark in order to test his latest protective gear—a composite suit built to withstand the blow from an ax. Given its saw-shaped teeth, so sharp they can easily mash through turtle shell and bone, even Sullivan found himself a tad bit nervous about the risky stunt.

Food / Solein! See Protein-rich Wonder Food Made From Electricity And Air (watch Video) by massmediang: 7:57am On Jul 09, 2019
A Finnish tech startup has managed to produce food mainly out of electricity and air, and is now looking to enter the market by 2021.
Solar Foods, based out of the VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland and the Lappeenranta University of Technology (LUT), is currently producing one kilogram of protein-rich edible powder called Solein, per day.

According to CEO Pasi Vainikka, one kilogram of Solein can feed seven to ten people their full day’s worth of protein.

The Finnish startup Solar Foods came up with a way to produce a protein-rich food called Solein from electricity, water and air, by using an environment-friendly process similar to brewing beer.

Described as the world’s most environmentally friendly protein, Solein is is made by applying electricity to water to release bubbles of carbon dioxide and hydrogen. Living microbes are then added to the liquid to feed on the carbon dioxide and hydrogen bubbles and produce the Solein, which is then dried to make the powder. It’a natural fermentation process similar to beer brewing, but it requires a special reactor that reportedly resembles a hurricane lantern. The dried Solein has a protein content of 50 percent and looks and tastes just like wheat flour. It can be used in all kinds of diets and can be 3D-printed for added texture.

Sports / Angry Messi Refuses To Collect Copa America Third Place Medal by massmediang: 6:53pm On Jul 07, 2019
Angry Messi Refuses To Collect Copa America Third Place Medal, Accuses Referee Of Corruption After Receiving Red Card

A visibly angry Lionel Messi skipped the Copa America medal ceremony yesterday and accused referees of “corruption” following Argentina’s failure to win the tournament and and his rare red card in Saturday’s 2-1, third-place, playoff victory over Chile.


Minutes before half-time, Messi clashed with Gary Medel after the Chile defender had shielded the ball out of play near his goal. The two players aggressively bumped chests a number of times before match referee Mauro Diaz de Vivar intervened and immediately flashed red cards for both.

The straight red marked the first time the Barcelona forward had been sent off in a senior game for club or country since a red in his debut with the national team against Hungary in 2005.

After the match, Messi, who didn’t collect his third-place medal with his teammates, ranted about the officiating at the tournament, suggesting his red card was a result of his harsh criticism of officials following the semifinal loss against Brazil in which Argentina saw two penalty claims denied.

“It’s a play that happens a lot. [Medel] always plays to the limit. I think the referee overreacted. With a yellow card for both of us, everything would be over. I feel lot of anger because I think I did not deserve that red card because I think we were playing a very good game.

You’ve probably seen one of those souvenir statues of Maitreya, aka the Laughing Buddha. They are pretty popular even in non-Buddhist countries, and many people use them as good luck charms. But what do you think about a living, breathing Smiling Buddha?
Photos and videos of an overweight, bald man posing as the Laughing Buddha on a stage somewhere in China have been circulating on social media ever since last fall. Back then, Chinese newspapers reported that the man would get showered with money every time he performed, as people hoped their offering would earn them divine favor. He just sat there in the Buddha’s iconic position with his flabby belly exposed and a big smile on his face, but the audience loved it.

Crime / Shocker! Huge Cannabis Farm Discovered In Police Station by massmediang: 8:47am On Jul 05, 2019
Police in Oldham’s Neighbourhood, Greater Manchester, England, were shocked to discover a major cannabis farm in a police station.
Failsworth Police Station was the base for Oldham’s Neighbourhood Policing Team until it was closed six years ago due to government cuts.
On Thursday, July 4, passing officers noticed that the building had been left insecure and stepped inside to investigate.
Inside they discovered the remnants of “huge cannabis production” operation.
They said that the entire first floor and loft space of the disused cop shop had been given over to the cultivation of more than 1,000 plants.
When the officers searched the premises, though, only root balls, soil and empty pots remained.
A post on GMP Failsworth and Hollinwood’s Facebook page said: “It is believed the grow was ‘taxed’ in the early hours of this morning where all the cannabis plants had been removed.
