Big Brother Naija 2019 housemate, Khafi Kareem, has shared an insightful opinion after a twitter user suggested that the BBNaija show seem to appeal to the most rabid and debased people.

She further said ;
“It fosters community.Not all representatives of it are positive & some use the love for one as reason to hate another, but that does not write off the community as a whole. Far from rabid, their energy is powerful & lives have been changed as a result. Mine is one of them”.

The Director-General of the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control, Prof. Mojisola Adeyeye, has revealed that the agency has received about four submissions as a potential cure for COVID-19.
In her words ;
“I made a call for people to submit their application and I believe we have about three or four now and we are going to expedite the processing because it takes a while for us to go through the laboratory testing and what not but I have already given the directive to expedite.
“So, where we are right now is just to make sure that the information submitted is okay and by the end of the week, we may be sending these samples to the lab after we must have gone to inspect the site where the products are made because we don’t want a product that somebody will take and the person will start vomiting.
“So, we will go and inspect the site to make sure that whatever sample we are going to get must have been prepared in an environment that will not make the drug to compromise the health of the user.
“If somebody says he or she has a remedy for COVID, first of all, we want to know the history of the plant or the family the plant belongs to, background information on the botanical characteristics of the plant, we will also want to know whether the plant has been used for anything before because sometimes, we use one plant for several diseases and the usage will be different for a particular disease.
“We will also ask for any written or published document about the plant because the plant may not come from Nigeria and it may be available in other climes.
“So, we want to ensure that we get enough information and once that application is submitted with the information, then we will start the process and part of the process involves inspecting where the medicinal product was prepared to be sure that it is not going to compromise the health of the people.”

A Nigerian lady identified as Fatima Babashehu Liman, is demanding justice for her cousin, Sadiq, who sustained a gunshot injury in his hand after he was allegedly attacked by SARS officials in Abuja on Monday May 18.
Fatima took to her Facebook to write,
JUSTICE FOR SADIQ!!!
With deep sorrowful broken heart I write dis painful story of what happened to my cousin today. Today as a Nigerian citizen, I have seen the highest order of abuse of office by the SARS officers and cruelty.
At about 1pm SARS officers jumped the fence and entered my aunt’s house in gwarinpa abuja, and started shooting, Sadiq was performing ablution for zuhr prayers.
On sighting one of the officers shooting, he got scared and he thought they were armed robbers. Out of fear, he jumped in to their neighbour’s house. One of the officers shot him on the hand, Sadiq was bleeding. He handcuffed Sadiq and one of the neighbour’s son and took them in to their vehicle. Meanwhile, the remaining officers broke the doors in to the house, brought out the remaining boys and her Husband and started beating them up and took them away and after some minutes, some of the officers came back to the house and packed the bullets that were on the floor in an attempt to hide evidence.
After making several phone calls, they were said to be taken to the SARS office at Guzape with alot of cooked up stories. On reaching there, they took us to see one of the heads of the office. He narrated the story that the officers were chasing a kidnapper demanding a ransome and the kidnapper jumped into my aunt’s house and that they didnt shoot any body, that Sadiq got injured by a barb wire while trying to escape and that Sadiq is the kidnapper.
After narrating our own side of the story, the officer realised they were some hidden facts. After clear listening to his step mum, the officer asked them to release every body. I demanded they take Sadiq to the hospital and get him treated and they must foot the bills. The commander and his deputy threatened to arrest me for saying that, and he said everyone should be rearrested he is not releasing anybody.
After going back and forth, I insisted they give us Sadiq for treatment and seeing is a gun shot injury, non of the hospital’s will accept us without a police officer attached to us. I demanded one of the police officer accompanies us to the hospital. They took Sadiq into their Hilux vehicle, drove him to National Hospital and left. The Doctors told them to wait behind and submit their statement, they refused and left us there.
When the bandage on Sadiq’s hand was removed, it was a gun shot injury. The bullet has damaged his Radius and Ulna bone, and also damaged the whole tendons on the wrist. We are demanding justice for Sadiq and the entire Family if there is any justice remaining in Nigeria, if not we have raised our hands and prayed to Allah in this Holy month for devine intervention, but today as a Nigerian Citizen, our government has failed us.
SARS officers are very cruel and in human, the officer that shot Sadiq was looking like a hoodlum, with is tattered hair style and chains hanging around his neck, if any one can help us raise the alarm until it reaches the ears that needs to hear and Justice is given to Sadiq it will be appreciated, pls help us share until it reaches the ears that need to hear… This is Sadiq’s picture at the trauma Centre in National Hospital Abuja…”
