A Nigerian Student Strangled His Lover To Death For Ignoring Him On Valentines day

A man has meted out the most heinous form of punishment to his lover on Valentine's Day for allegedly turning down his request.
 
 
A student of Psychology Department of University of Jos, Miss Zakariah Nanchin, has been reportedly killed by a man believed to be her lover, for purportedly turning down his Valentine Day’s outing invitation.
 
Nanchin was allegedly strangled to death by her lover, one Badung David Dele on Monday, the day after Valentine at her Angwa Rukuba apartment in Jos.
 
According to The Nation, Dele was said to have reached out to Nanchin apparently to settle their differences and invited her out for Valentine. The deceased reportedly declined the invitation.
 
A source, close to the duo, said they have been in an intimate relationship for quite some time until a misunderstanding set in shortly before the last Valentine day. However, Nanchin allegedly felt that there was no basis for any dating between them having parted for some time.
 
Dele was said to have stormed Nanchin’s apartment the following morning and demanded an explanation why she failed to make the outing. He reportedly grabbed her by the neck and strangled her to death after which he left the apartment and reportedly told a neighbour he met outside that he wanted to go and get some medicine for his ‘ill’ friend.
 
He was said to have given his phone number to the neighbour, a woman, and asked her to call him in case of any emergency.
 
Reports say the woman perceived something fishy had transpired, so she proceeded to Nanchin’s room only to find her lying down on her bed unconscious.
 
The woman, simply identified as Mama Joy, said “I called her name but she did not respond so I moved closer and I discovered that she was dead.

“I ran out, screaming to alert the people around. I was shocked that the boy managed to kill this girl without a gun. There was no blood on her body,” Mama Joy added.
 
Confirming the incident, the state Police Public Relations Officer, PPRO, DSP Abu Emmanuel, said Badung was arrested on the same day.
 
“After some interrogation, he confessed to have committed the crime. We are making necessary arrangements to arraign him in court soon.”
 
Emmanuel called out to ladies, cautioning them to be careful who they date.
 
“Some of these boys are criminals and you might ignorantly fall into their hands like this girl,” the PPRO said, adding that the body of the deceased had been transferred from Bingham University Teaching Hospital to the Jos University Teaching Hospital JUTH for autopsy and relevant action.

Woman Who Has Been Barren For 10 Years After Marriage Loses Her First Pregnancy to Police Brutality

A woman who spent the first ten years of her married life without a child has ended up losing her very first pregnancy to police brutality.
 
Nigerian policemen
 
The Independent Service Delivery Monitoring Group (ISDMG) has appealed to the Inspector-General of Police, Mr. Solomon Arase, to intervene in an alleged case of brutality meted out to one Mrs. Adegbite Damilola by officers of Oyo State Police Command.
 
ISDM Executive Director, Mr. Chima Amadi, while briefing newsmen on Friday in Abuja, alleged that Damilola lost her first pregnancy after 10 years of marriage due to police brutality.
 
Amadi also appealed to the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) to ensure that the victim got justice. He said that the incident occurred on August 11, 2015 at Akobo Police Station, Ibadan.
 
”The actions of the police at all stages breached legally established procedures for arrest and detention. The police breached the legal requirement that a person to be arrested must be promptly informed of his or her offence.

”The police also violated the victim’s constitutional right not to be treated in a manner that degrades her human dignity. By subjecting her to such malevolent treatment, the police already presumed her guilty and began to mete out punishment to her,” he said.
 
Amadi said that going by the reason which the police later gave for their unlawful arrest and maltreatment of the victim, her offence could not be anything more than malicious damage.
 
In her narration, Damilola, said that on August 11, 2015, a female police officer from Akobo Police Station, came to arrest her in her Ibadan residence. She said she requested to know why she was being arrested and the police woman left and came back with re-enforcements.
 
Damilola said that on arrival at the police station, she was told she resisted arrest and would be locked up.
 
”I sought to call my husband but the officers got infuriated and started beating me. I was kicked in the stomach and I started bleeding and was dragged into a cell,” she said.
 
Damilola said she fainted in the cell and was taken to a hospital where she was confirmed to have lost her pregnancy. She said that she later learnt that a report of removal of a signboard in her neighbourhood was brought to the station of which the complainant absolved her of involvement.
 
She said that two of her neighbours were later identified by the complainant as those who removed the said signboard. According to her, she was driven in police car from the hospital in the guise of going for settlement only to be taken to a Magistrates’ Court.
 
She said she was charged with Assault on a Police Officer, adding that it took the intervention of a lawyer who sympathised with her before she was granted bail.
 
ISDMG demanded that a public apology be tendered to the couple, among other things.
 
”That reasonable compensation be paid to the victim; seeing that no amount of money can bring back the couple’s lost child after ten years of waiting. That adequate punishment be meted out to the officers involved, and the information should also be made public.

”That the criminal charge brought against the victim be withdrawn by the police. We urge the inspector-general of police to also use this to demonstrate his commitment to wiping out abuse of power and brutality in the police.

”We urge that the Executive Secretary, NHRC, intervene in the matter and personally pursue this case to a logical conclusion by ensuring that justice is manifestly done,” Amadi said.
 
Amadi said that the police brutality was unwarranted and unjustifiable and called for appropriate disciplinary measures. He said that the Oyo State Commissioner of Police (CP) had held meetings with the parties involved to facilitate the resolution of the case.
 
When contacted for comments, DSP Adekunle Ajisebutu, the Police Public Relations Officer, Oyo State Police Command, said that the CP had ordered an investigation into the matter.
 
“I can assure you that the victim will get justice,’’ Ajisebutu said.

If I Tell a Man No, I Mean It, Even If He Is Lying Stark N*ked Beside Me With His Condom - Amber Rose

A popular model and actress who is renowned for her really curvaceous shape has made some new revelation about her private life.
 
Amber Rose
 
American model, actress and fashion designer, Amber Rose, was recently a guest on a new TV show 'It's Not You, It's Men', hosted by Tyrese Gibson and Rev Run, and during her appearance, Rose revealed that she gets "sexually assaulted constantly," and proceeded to go toe-to-toe with the male hosts, who suggested that perhaps fans' willingness to act in such ways is due to the way she presents herself.
 
She said: "When I walk down the street, people think because I'm famous, or I'm cool and I'm taking pictures, that they can just grab my ass or put their hand under my skirt or, ‘Oh Amber, can I come grab your boobs?' Girls do that to me all the time, and it does get like, I love you girls so much, but it does get like, stop grabbing on my boobs constantly and my butt. And guys, too. This is my privacy."
 
After hearing this, Rev Run offered that maybe this is the case because of "a representation of what you're wearing and stuff and seems like, in their mind, what you're representing."
 
His co-host, Tyrese, echoed similar sentiments, telling Amber, "I'm just saying, the comfort-ability some people find in wanting to touch or grope you...it's an energy that is sent out there that creates that type of response".
 
 Rose was quick to disagree and explain why she feels that is not a valid argument. She explained that:  "No it doesn't, and I'm gonna tell you why.
 
If I'm laying down with a man butt-naked and his condom is on, and I say, ‘You know what? No. I don't wanna do this. I changed my mind.' That means no. That means f—k no. It doesn't matter how far I take it or what I have on, when I say no, it means no."
 
Rev Run then responds: "I've just heard a quote that was like, 'Dress how you wanna be addressed...'"
 
The adamant Amber Rose then retorts: "Oh, boo. No. That's not realistic. Stop it."

Omg! Former Airline Employee Reveals Dark Secrets About Airlines That Will Shock You

A former airline industry employee has written a shocking draft that has revealed some secrets about airlines that will shock you.
 
Inside an airplane (file photo)
 
The former airline industry employee, Alison Hope, wrote a scathing article revealing the dark secrets that her ex-colleagues don't want you to know about, a Mirror Online report shows.
 
Passengers may look forward to tucking into an in-flight meal next to a quiet neighbour as they enjoy a fresh cup of coffee. But unknown to them, the in-flight meal may contravene hygiene standards, the coffee may be made with dirty water and that elderly person next to them might just be dead.
 
Alison Hope explained passengers should on no account drink tea or coffee as the water used is stored in tanks that are hard to clean and so may have high amounts of bacteria.
 
She also only advised passengers to eat properly sealed food from a reputable company unless they were flying Emirates or Singapore Airlines.
 
She wrote: "LSG Sky Chefs, one of the largest contractors providing meals to airlines, frequently gets slapped with health violations , and the conditions under which it prepares food are often less than savoury".
 
Before eating, passengers should clean their tray table with antibacterial wipes because it may be covered in faecal matter or other nasty things.
 
She wrote: "Passengers often use the trays as their own private diaper changing tables, and sadly, they are cleaned far less than you’d be comforted to know."
 
The tray table could also be stained with vomit or other bodily fluids from passengers taking advantage of being on holiday to drink until they are sick or even have sex or masturbate in the seats.
 
She also added people die mid-flight quite regularly, often of heart conditions.
 
She said: "When someone dies in-flight, a plane will often divert to the nearest city, but sometimes, people slip away so quietly that no one notices until they don't get up from their seats upon landing."
 
If that is not enough to put anyone off flying for good, Alison said there is always a risk that the niggling techical faults that plague planes might turn into something serious.
 
She said virtually every plane has something wrong with it and most problems, if they were not too severe, would be left until the plane underwent routine maintenance.

Radio Biafra Director, Nnamdi Kanu Wears Biafra-Inspired Attire to Court

It seems like the leader of the Indigenous People Of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, used his court appearance today to send a message to the authorities with his latest attire.
Nnamdi Kanu in court earlier today
 
Embattled director of Radio Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, earlier today, February 19th, appeared in court with a Biafra-inspired attire that suggests his loyalty to the cause he is pursuing, is unshaken even after spending four months in Kuje prison.
 
In pictures posted online, the IPOB leader does not seem to be intimidated by the trial against him by the President Buhari-led federal government because of his agitation for the freedom of Biafra.

At the Federal High Court in Abuja today, Kanu appeared with a dress that signifies he is still in tune with his agitation for Biafra.
 
He wore a sparkling white lace dress - a simple native Nigerian wear which had in its pocket, the colours used by the Biafra agitators as a prospective colour of their flag and insignia should the freedom they so desire be granted.
