Following @pelumiawotedu’s update, some Twitter users living within the area, seconded his statement about the incident which occurred that Sunday.
A user, @ysquare_r claimed that his neighbor lost her friend, her child, and son to the strange incident. Not only that, he also claimed a man in his street attended the birthday party with four of his friends and all 5 of them are dead.
According to @ysquare_r, as at the time of counting, they were 30 dead already.

You have a sweet talking voice and it comes out in your singing voice but your performance is terrible. You are never going to make money being a singer.

“Women are by far more intelligent than men” – Rotimi Amaechi
Nigerian Minister of Transportation, Mr. Rotimi Amaechi has stated that women are far more intelligent than men.
The former Governor of Rivers state revealed this while talking at the second edition of the Association of Nigerian Women Business Network (ANWBN) in Abuja.
In a statement released by his Special Assistant on Media Taiye Elebiyo-Edeni, Mr. Amaechi noted that women are capable of holding positions of authority in the society other than the mere 35 per cent affirmative action policy.
Amaechi said,
“I do not support male domination, neither do I support female domination. I believe that all of you seated here are qualified to rule this nation, I don’t believe that a particular seat should be set aside for a woman, reason is that, women are by far more intelligent than men.
“The Deputy Secretary- General of the United Nations, Amina Muhammed was selected not because she was a woman but because she performed excellently well in her previous position.
“When ‘I am invited to a function and women are gathered dancing, I just wonder why women should be dancing at a function; women should be taking more serious ly than dancing at a function. “When you get to the table, assert your authority as somebody who is brilliant, who is intelligent to get what others are getting.
“Don’t tell me you are on the table and should be given a position because you are a woman, don’t ask that any seat should be set aside for you, ask for your right, it is your right. Women in politics stay for meetings till 2am. So if your husband allow you to join politics, he should be ready to support you.
“Any woman I have ever given appointment merited it, but you are also a problem unto yourselves. If appointment is given to a woman, a fellow woman will start saying the man is dating the woman and that she did not get the appointment because she merited it, which is one of the reasons I stopped.”
Horrifying moment an Oklahoma prison officer was held hostage by inmates before one of them was shot dead by police officers (Video)
A Facebook livestream captured the moment an Oklahoma prison officer was held hostage by prison inmates before one of them (inmates) got shot dead by police officers.
The hostage situation unfolded on Saturday evening at the Oklahoma County Jail and stopped after police officers shot and killed an inmate who took a correctional officer hostage.
Shortly after 4 p.m, a correctional officer was overrun by at least one inmate during pill pass and taken hostage. According to Greg Williams, the administrator for the Oklahoma County Jail Trust, the inmate took the officer’s radio and keys and released many of the other inmates on the 10th-floor pod.
In the livestream which took place on the Facebook page of the prison officer, an inmate looked into the camera and said that they were doing what had to be done because they have no food and cannot take showers at the jail. Another inmate is then seen standing over the crouched detention officer with his hand on the back of his neck, berating him.
The inmate holding the phone can then be heard saying that the water in the jail does not work and the toilets are backed up.
The shooting incident occurred after jail staff notified local law enforcement agencies, and officers with the Oklahoma City Police Department and the Oklahoma County Sheriff’s Office responded to the scene.
Oklahoma County Sheriff Tommie Johnson III claimed officers tried to de-escalate the hostage situation, but shots were fired after the inmate who had the correctional officer in a “hostage position” held something to his neck.
Johnson said;
“Lethal force was taken, and the suspect was shot on scene. We were able to get the detention officer out safely.”
The correctional officer was taken to a hospital for treatment. Although authorities did not release the extent of the officer’s injuries, they said he is expected to be OK.
Police Chief Wade Gourley said the department’s investigation into the hostage situation and deadly shooting is in the preliminary stages, and he didn’t have too many details as of Saturday night. Several investigators have been called in to conduct interviews, and the Oklahoma City Police Department will take the lead on the investigation.
After the incident, a group of protesters gathered outside the jail, complaining about conditions that inmates allegedly faced behind bars.

Woman gets arrested for killing her one month baby; blames her baby daddy (Photo)
A 35 year old lady identified as Sukurat Olajoke has been arrested by men of the Ogun state police command for killing her one month old baby, and dumping its corpse in Ogun river.
According to a statement released by the spokesperson of the state police command, DSP Abimbola Oyeyemi, the suspect was apprehended when policemen attached to Enugada divisional headquarters Abeokuta who were on routine patrol with the Dpo SP Baba Hamzat saw the woman throwing something suspicious into the river. The suspicious behavior of the woman, after throwing the object into the river attracted the policemen who quickly apprehended her for questioning.
“It was on interrogation that the suspect, who lives at Agboole Alakoye area of Igbo Ora in Oyo state, confessed that what she threw into the river was the corpse of her one month old baby, who she killed out of frustration. She confessed further that, the person who is responsible for the pregnancy of the baby, rejected her and the baby, and since she has no means of taking care of the child, she decided to kill and throw her into the river.
Preliminary investigation revealed that, the suspect had given birth to six other children for three different men, before getting pregnant for one man simply identified as Hakeem who refused to accept the paternity of the child.
The Dpo later engaged the service of local divers, who helped in recovering the corpse of the child, and it has been deposited at the general hospital mortuary.
Abimbola added that the commissioner of police, CP Edward Awolowo Ajogun, ordered the immediate transfer of the suspect to homicide section of the state criminal investigation and intelligence department for further investigation and prosecution.

Stop comparing ladies in your neighborhood to Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala — Writer Moshood Adebayo
Nigerian writer, Moshood Adebayo, has opined that people should stop coming ladies in their neighborhood to World Trade Organization DG, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala.
According to the writer, Ngozi came from a rich background and her parents were both professors so the access to education and connection in high places was easy to come by for her.
She also opined that most times, people don’t become “riffraffs” just because they were lazy but they instead become a product of the environment they were raised in.
Her post reads ;
Stop comparing ladies in your neighborhood to Ngozi Okonjo-Iwealla. Her parent were both professors and her dad a Royal Majesty. They’ve always been rich. She was just 22 when she finished from Harvard University. You know how expensive Harvard is, right? She was 27 when she
earned her PhD, from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Someone who worked at World Bank for 25 years, rising to the position of Managing Director. No, it would be unfair to measure your seriousness in life by that woman’s standard. Her brilliance is motivating, but her circumstances are different,
If you’ve also had the same parent, you would’ve probably done better.
Most times, people aren’t reduced to riffraff and socioeconomic passersby because they’re lazy or stupid. Poverty and powerlessness are just merciless conditioners, that’s all. When you don’t have money, there’s not so much you could do, in the way of chasing dreams.
Your exposure level would be low, and when it’s low, your ambitions would be accordingly small irrespective of how big your dreams may be. Now, when someone with exposure and big ambitions sees you, he sees someone who isn’t serious enough nor brilliant enough but you are!
You’re a royal material only raised in the culture of slaves. To be continued..
If you’ve also had the same parent, you would’ve probably done better.
