coogar: if he did, forensics would have caught him. he shot through the door - it then means he didn't see what he was shooting at. that's one of the key elements in his favour.



i think his vulnerability & paranoia got the better of him. he had no legs, men like that are bound to be on the edge.....they tend to make up for their disability with aggression.

when he heard the noise, he automatically thought an intruder was in the house. he took his gun & fired straight through the door without thinking straight.

by the time he realised it could be reeva, he had unleashed 4 talon bullets into the bathroom - and reeva died as a result. ordinary bullets would have increased her survival rate.
which kain yeye forensic undecided undecided

yes he will walk from this case but we all know he is lying and he knew perfectly what he was doing

coogar: obviously, he's not saying the whole truth. he lied about some parts but not saying the whole truth doesn't mean he's guilty!!!

there are some shady spots in his evidence but i don't believe he intentionally murdered his girlfriend. he couldn't have done that under his own roof.
he lied about everything cheesy

Okijajuju1: [b]The Home for the elderly in Nigeria are for those elderly folks who have nobody in the world who cares about them..


They are loners who live out their lives alone..

Here are some pictures from the visit of miss Rivers to one of such homes in Rivers State

These elderly fall into a group of Nigerians that are never accounted for in our National planning. These homes are charity homes (unlike some abroad that are like hotels for elderly folks funded by their loved ones).. Another group are homes for lepers as well as home for special needs kids.

striktlymi: Can't find anything on the current project you guys are working on in that thread.
Its information about TeHN and our past and ongoing projects.

striktlymi: I am not sure the nature this venture will take but if it is about bringing happiness to the faces of some old folks in the short term e.g making merry their 2014 Christmas only, then I think it may just be a complete waste of time and resources.

However, I believe that the best way to help any individual struggling with poverty is to empower such individual economically, such that the individual's foreseeable economic future is to a large extent guaranteed.

My 'knacking of teeth' above would have made more sense to peeps who still have time on their hands but still I believe it can applied to some elderly folks, especially those whose continuity plans are fairly certain.

It’s that time of the year again when we get together as one in order to put smiles on the less privilege in our society. We have decided as a group to focus on the elderly this year under the theme:” Getting together to help the elderly as we are going to need the help someday”

According to Nigeria’s current estimated demographic data, there are:
Poor Nigerians = 58 million
Total Population = 170 million
% of elderly adults (55+) = 7%


Going by the figures above, we can estimate that there are currently about 4 million elderly folks living below poverty line. That’s a whole lot of people with nowhere to go for help as of when needed.

We know we don’t have the resources to help as many as we would have liked but our commitment is to make some real difference no matter how small it may be. We are of the believe that a combination of small meaningful efforts by well-meaning Nigerians can make the desired change we all crave.

What are we asking for at this stage?
· Ideas on how we should go about this ambition of ours

· Names of homes specifically set up to care for the elderly

· Nominate elderly folks that you know is living below the poverty line


Prospective Timeline
September – Consultation
October – November – Fund raising campaign
December – Charity Flight



Lastly, as always we would like to thank you guys for all the support throughout the years. Without you guys there is simply no TeHN.

Let’s make it happen and of course let the change we crave start from each and every one of us

JUST FOR LAFFS: At Korle Bu hospital's intensive care unit, patients always died in the same bed at 7am every morning regardless of their condition.

This puzzled medical staff, so a group of medical doctors decided to observe the bed in secret and waited for the fateful hour.

Some held crosses and prayer books to ward off evil influences. While the less superstitious ones held cameras, tablets, smart phones to capture every moment of this hour.

At exactly 7 am, the door to the ward slowly opened, Musa the cleaner came in and disconnected the life support from the mains and plugged in his Nokia phone charger. IF YOU THINK EDUCATION IS EXPENSIVE TRY IGNORANCE.

Have a super weekend.
