In Akure, a prophet organized a prayer or so

A child that came with the parents got missing when the prophet asked everyone to close their eyes...

Wahala burst.

Rumour has it that the corpse of the child and others were discovered on the altar

The church was vandalized, policeman was murdered, the prophet is still in jail as we speak...


The child has not been found till date, dead or alive,his name is/was Gold.

Organizers of such events are held responsible if things go well or south...
Thanks for sharing your thoughts, makes a lot of sense

Those who mocked others and politicised the situation when it occurred at Ibadan are crying now that it occurred in Anambra. Are we not all human beings? Why should our reaction to the same event differ based on where it happened and who were the victims?

My condolences to the families of the victims who lost their lives during the Okija rice stampede. May our state governments learn lessons from these frequent events and implement better fraud control mechanisms.

Stampedes can occur anywhere and at any time. They recently happened in South Korea, Israel, the U.S. and multiple European countries. When they occur, let us learn the needed lessons instead of politicising them based on what part of the country the incident rested its ugly head.

The prophet ( Sotitobire ) was discharged and acquitted by Court of Appeal in December 2nd, 2021.

One of the main reasons we have not made serious progress is that we always justify every failure by comparing it to those in other nations.

How come the same Reno never compares our leadership, anticorruption, infrastructure, developments, and innovations to those in those nations?!!

Why don't we ever compare minimum wages?!!

Why not also compare scientific and technological strides?!!


Why get so comfortable in failure and mediocrity?!!


3 stampede incidents and close to 100 deaths in less than a week is not something to seek justifications.

I don't know if this is true but someone said one man was alleged to have showed up with 17 children. Some others hired their neighbor's children to come with them. Even a woman with a few months old baby was said to be a victim. A full grown adult with a very young infant showed up to a fun fair organized for children. Its mind boggling.

There are so many stories flying around and hunger is the root cause of this tragic incident, but I wouldn't put it past the average Nigerian to try to be devious when trying to access palliatives. At the end, chaos ensues because of our penchant for lawlessness, disorderliness and cutting corners.

All it takes is to credit the accounts of the vulnerable in the society. Get a list of the low earners in Public service and credit their account. They would sing your praise beyond Planet Earth. It's an alternative way of doing charity.
they won't
That's why ppl want to be seen to do charity

They were chased and caught and brutally dealt with. The man spent one month at Toun Hospital before he regained his consciousness. They made the yahoo boys pay all the bills with police monitoring.
This is something they will gladly do and even overpay sef cos they know what they have done. Ive heard theres a guy like that , he has to drop blood every month... He will just crush any unlucky okada.... And then go to police to report and settle the matter with money..... If not that our police intelligence gathering is wack, iyaganku people suppose don put eye on the guy except he has accomplices there, which Is very possible

So you no know say e be natalander?

Another popular figure that's very present on nairaland is David Hundeyin

An lots of security goons from DSS, NIA, EFCC, FBI, CIA, MOSSAD......... this came to light when nairaland was down sometime during the year, it was discovered that nairaland hosts shut it down for seuns refusal to delete an anti semitic post.
That's when I began to reduce my activities here, nairaland is being strictly monitored and in order to save his business, Seun has capitulated .

So unfortunate. I guess she loves kids but the enemy took advantage of her compassion. It's indeed a trying time for the queen.
when you help the poor help from afar because even the poor have no pity and are very vicious for example the mother throwing her own child from the fence because of food and Nigerians are saying na because of poverty.again don't be surprised that many of these people ravaged by poverty will still collect bread and biscuits to vote for people who will further destroy the remaining blood in their veins.didnt you see the way the poor were using their lives to defend these parasitic politicians. Do you remember the woman who was brutalised with bottles because she wanted to vote for her choice? Or the ones setting some polling units ablaze or the ones stealing ballot boxes? Shey na otedola pikin or dangote pikin dey fight because of politicians? You see adenuga pikin there?

I strongly disagree with the notion that she deserves the death sentence. In fact, she organized a charitable event to help the needy, which is commendable. The event was scheduled to start at 10 am if get it right, and 5,000 children were invited. However, the event drew a larger crowd than expected, with people arriving from neighboring states and some even sleeping at the entrance. By 5 am, the area outside was packed, and despite the school gate being locked and school security personnel being present, the crowd forced their way in. Unfortunately, a stampede occurred around 7 am, When the organizers were still sleeping and the invited police personnel were suppose to report for duty at 8 am.

In my opinion, she does not deserve the death sentence. Instead, we should be encouraging and appreciating her efforts to help those in need. This country is facing hard times, and people are struggling to survive. Our politicians, whom we often praise, are heartless and unhelpful. Let us not discourage those who still have empathy and are willing to help others during these challenging times."

Your explanation is noted but I didn't agree with you where you said "she will be encouraged and appreciated"
My question is that she will be appreciated for causing deaths of 35 children. This is one of problems of this country - inability of people that erred to accept responsibility and blame.

Despite and irrespective of her effort, the death incident was uncalled for and it means that no adequate plan was made to address this.

Let me ask,those school security men, deployed to close the gate, were they not aware or they re still sleeping at 7am when the stampede occured.

Nawaooo

Manslaughter is not usually to do with intention. The key word is involuntary. In her case, the deaths were caused by negligence.
She didn’t recognize the impending danger that resulted in the deaths of the children.Though her actions were good, they somehow unintentionally resulted in the loss of lives.

you still don't get my point, the rush started as early as 5am and stamped occurred between 6 and 7am. The organizers couldn't have envisaged that people will go as far as sleeping over at the venue in order to get early entry.
Like you rightly said that people should take responsibility for their mistakes, I believe not only the organizers should be blamed, but the people too especially some parents that were throwing their children over the fence because of gifts.
