NairaOcean: "I Gave ₦10k And Fanta To Water Spirit" Actor Who Survives The Boat Mishap
In the aftermath of the tragic boat accident that claimed the life of Nigerian actor Late Junior Pope, survivor TC has left many intrigued by a peculiar ritual performed just before boarding the ill-fated boat.
"When I was about to enter the boat, I poured the Fanta I was holding to greet the water spirits," TC shared, recounting the moments before embarking on the journey.
The boat, which was carrying several passengers including the late actor Junior Pope, encountered turbulent waters leading to a devastating outcome. Junior Pope, known for his roles in Nollywood films, tragically lost his life in the accident, leaving fans and colleagues mourning across the entertainment industry.
Meektunz: It is sad that we really love taking risks in this country, this is not the first time boat mishaps have been happening in various rivers & dams in Nigeria and the passengers die while some go missing due to negligence of life jackets. Why would school children like this be taken on a boat ride excursion without proper arrangement of life jackets for the pupils?
Mindlessly dangerous risky boat trip for those young souls.
This how Nigerian endanger each other's lives and when the unimaginable happens we all blame the government.
Britishpea: You were making sense until the last part. Nigeria didn’t fail him but Nigerians failed him. Nigerians youths who happen to be unintelligently loud with no deep education about life generally but are quick to come on social media to flood the pages of unconfirmed villain to attack them, who use all avenue to attack Nigeria without rational thinking, just like you, who happen to be the most senseless and busy bodies among all youths in Africa, took him to the mortuary , without first Aid cpr, and then took him to a ritualist, failed him. He also failed himself by not asking for life jacket as an A list actor. He was supposed to stand his ground that he was not going anywhere without a life jacket.
If the youths like you had taken him to the hospital first, instead of the mortuary and then ritualist , a high chance is available for him ti survive.
Again, you are the Nigeria. Nigeria is a space but you make the country. So what do people who make up the country do to help Junior? They helped kill him further. Grow up in your head not your body size.
Correctly, anyone who think people leave Nigeria just because of money is sick
Please help me educate them ..................... most of these youths think they know but at the end of the day you will discover that they are even more ignorant.
Talking as if most Nigerians know their left from their right ..............
The only places where there is semblance of sanity in the system are the cities but go to the inter land, most Nigerians are still backward and fetish.
There is general lack of basic infrastructure for sustainable living despite the connected world we live in.
Who is going to wake us up from the self inflicted slumber?
Deputy Governor Shaibu, you don land yourself for land of self inflicted political irrelevance and death.
Fly wey no dey hear word na him dey follow dead body enter grave................
No retirement benefit for this guy ...................... you stand impeached.
Better run before dem come throwaway your belongings from Government House, because you have no constitutional standing to stay in the official quarters.
There is no room for two Deputy Governors on a seat in the 1999 Constitution.
officialwdhtv: Lagos police command to sanction officers demanding bribe from a drone operator on Lekki-Ikoyi bridge, insists anyone to use a drone must obtain a permit
The Lagos state police command has reacted to a viral video of two police officers demanding a drone permit from a drone operating individual on the Lekki-Ikoyi Link Bridge.
In the video, a man who was cycling could be seen being interrogated by some police officers. The officers asked the man for the permit he obtained before using the drone on the bridge. The cyclist said he had none and wondered when Nigerians needed a permit to fly a drone. The officers mentioned that he needed to obtain a permit from Lekki Concession Company LCC or the police. After delaying him for over an hour, the officers were caught on camera asking for bribe.
In a statement released, the spokesperson of the state police command, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, said the police officers acted within the ambit of the law to demand to see a permit.
‘’For emphasis, Nigerian aviation laws stipulate that a permit must be obtained from the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) for the operation of drones weighing more than 250 grams anywhere within the country.’’ Hundeyin said
He added that nonetheless, the Lagos State Police Command totally condemns the unprofessional conduct of the officers in attempting to extort the drone operator as can be seen in the concluding part of the video.
‘’The Commissioner of Police, Lagos State Command, CP Adegoke Fayoade, mni has, therefore, directed the Commanding Officer of 49 PMF Akodo, from whose squadron the police officers were duly posted to the bridge, to produce the men for appropriate disciplinary actions.’’ the statement read
These policemen seem not to be in tune with the world.
They have been left out of the New Nigeria, they are just a bunch of embarrasement.

Bros because you donate blood no mean say you no go pay for blood Abeg no risk you person life.
That's why they call it Blood Donation!!!
I had a situation back in the days where I donated blood but the patient I took to the hospital used over 13 packs of 2 pints of blood to recover after surgery.
Pray that mercy of God speaks for your sick ones, because at times you will spend all the money only to loose them.
So if your loved ones recover in the hospital, just be happy and hope you will not have such traumatic event again.
ijustdey: UK authority suspends Nigerian nurse over dishonesty, may strike name off register
The NMC’s panel found that Ms Ogbunaya was dishonest on different occasions with her employers, and she admitted to having breached the order due to financial reasons.
Looks like the nurse in question no sabi her work ..........
How can she go out there and be falsifying records and displaying ineptitude on a dangerous scale?
The Coastal Road Project has been on the drawing board since Y2000 when BAT was Governor of Lagos State but the Federal Government under Obasanjo and other Presidents never gave it the priority it deserved just like they messed up the electricity generation initiative of ENRON back then.
But after years of delay, it has finally received the attention it deserves at last.
