May 29, 2020

A taxi driver in Owerri, identified as Anayochukwu Njoku, from Umuakagu, Agbahara Nsu in Ehime Mbano council area eloped and abandoned his wife after he realised that she gave birth to conjoined twins, Daily Trust reports.

Njoku’s wife, Chidinma, was said to have given birth to the conjoined twins on March 11, 2020, but their sight was not something that the man could behold.

Sadly, the conjoined twins, Goodluck and Rejoice Njoku were reported to have lost their mother three hours after their delivery.

Director General of the Imo Foundation, the humanitarian organ of the Imo State government, Mrs. Beulah Chukwuma, who spoke to newsmen while highlighting the plight of the children, said that after the burial of their late mother, the conjoined twins were brought to them.

Chukwuma said, “Presently, we have a family with conjoined twins.

Their mother, Mrs. Chidinma Njoku died on 11th March, 2020 three hours after giving birth to them in a maternity in Umuokoto Nekede in Owerri West Local Government Area.

“Their father, Mr. Anayochukwu Njoku, was helping his late wife in her tailoring shop to earn a living to support their poor family of six before the arrival of the conjoined twins, after he lost his job two years ago as a driver.

“By the special grace of God, as soon as the case got to the desk of Governor Hope Uzodimma, he gave an urgent directive for the twins to be brought to the Foundation for their adequate welfare and survival.

“So currently, we are reaching out to quickly get their surgery done so that they can begin to live a better life. Chukwuma said that in spite of the assistance from the state government, there was the need to go beyond government.

“We need to reach out to organisations, individuals that are public spirited to come to our aid in addition to what the government is doing for us.”

Alleged Black-eye: BamBam and Teddy A go live on Instagram to rubbish “domestic violence” rumor.

By

May 28, 2020

Popular Nigerian Couple and reality stars, Teddy A and Bam Bam, have dispelled the rumors of possible ‘Domestic Violence’ which fans assumed Bam Bam was suffering from.

Earlier today, Bamike Olawunmi-Adenibuyan better known as BamBam set her Instagram page on fire when she took to the photo/video sharing app to share a recent photo of herself after she birthed her first child in March.

However, while some enjoy the beauty of the reality star in the new photo, others noted a mild observation as the dark shades she wore and her fringe hair led to people thinking she had black spot on her left eye.

Recall Teddy A has once been accused of assaulting his wife and thus when the ‘black eye’ was spotted, it elicited a new spate of assumptions.

In what seems to be a timely action to dispel the talks, the couple took to their IG live and from the video, there was clearly nothing shady on BamBam’s face and they smiled at each other to send a message that everything was OKAY.

Nigerian gay rights activist, Bisi Alimi has slammed singer, Simi after she spoke against people hating others for being different.

Bisi berated Simi and accused her of promoting local homophobic violence.

Simi had spoken against people hating others for being different and also against “killings” which she said is now normal. She tweeted;

And we have our own people killing us in the streets and it has become so normal now. It’s almost more abhorrent. As fucked as it is, it is one thing for people to be intimidated by and hate you for being different, but how do you not value someone the exact same as you?

However, Bisi Alimi slammed the singer over the tweet as he called her a hyprocrite because of an earlier remark Simi had once made on her youtube show.

The gay rights activist’s response was centered on one of Simi’s “Stoopid Sessions” Youtube shows, in which she alleged that homosexuality is not natural but learned.

He tweeted;

There is a name you call the #Nigeria middle/upper class elites that sympathise with abroad blackness but promote local homophobic violence against there own #LGBT; hypocrites. The @SympLySimi of this world. You are a disgrace.

Nigeria elites are oblivious to that, because they can fly around the world, they would rather align with abroad struggle than be a local hero

Deleted her music and her husband's after that terrible show. She has pals lounging around talking about how homosexuality is a sin. She should have shut it and drank her coke and talked about what she knows which is little

Nigerian man who survived COVID-19 shares his experience

May 28, 2020

A Nigerian gentleman who survived COVID-19, Olubunmi Adefisayo has reminisced on the experience that has claimed the lives of people all over the world.

In a recent chat with Nigeria Health Watch, Olubunmi disclosed how he tested positive for the virus, the symptoms he had, and his experience at the Yaba Isolation center in Lagos.

He said he finds it strange that some Nigerians do not believe that the virus is in the country.

Read his account below,

“I don’t remember the exact date but in the first week of April, I noticed I had lost my sense of smell and taste. I checked online to know if it was a possible COVID-19 symptom. It turned out that some survivors mentioned those as their initial symptoms too. Then I decided to call NCDC to get tested. Two days later, the Lagos State team came to my house to take my sample for testing.

The waiting period was filled with a lot of tension. I just wanted to know the result so I could get it off my mind. It was a bit frustrating. Of course, I understood that the results were not immediate. Two days later, they called and said I tested positive. I gave them my address and within an hour, I was picked up and taken to the isolation centre.

My symptoms were very mild. Many people think that when you catch the coronavirus, you will die or experience debilitating symptoms. It is very bizarre that people don’t believe there is a virus. I find it very strange. It is not a joke. People need to stop reading all these conspiracy theories or believing all these weird websites. Look at only credible sources for information.

Anyway, I live in my apartment alone so I was worried about my neighbours. What if they contracted the disease from me? From touching the same gate as I did or something. Some of my neighbours were tested but luckily their results were negative. The Lagos State COVID-19 team also went to a supermarket I had visited earlier, to trace staff I may have had contact with. I don’t know the results of those tests. I hope none of them tested positive.

I was on admission in Yaba for 14 days. I remember a man that was brought into our ward. He was in his late 70s. He was clearly in a bad shape, he could hardly breathe. He struggled to walk. He was only with us for one night. The next morning, he was taken away. We don’t know what happened to him. We asked the health workers but they didn’t tell us anything. Maybe because of ‘patient confidentiality’. Nobody said anything. I wonder where he is or what happened to him. – Olubunmi Adefisayo, #COVID19 Survivor” he said

I hope this is encouraging to people who might feel the same but are as afraid to speak as I am. I want to be open. I want to be transparent with you all – and also open to having my heart changed in the future. I am not looking for a debate at all – just a chance to share my story in the hopes some good can come from it. I love you all.

“Lagos will see a decline in number of COVID-19 patients in four to six months time” – Health Commissioner, Prof. Akin Abayomi

Lagos state Commissioner for Health, Professor Akin Abayomi has said that the state will begin to see a significant decline in the number of COVID-19 cases in about four to six months.

Prof. Abayomi mentioned this when he spoke at the 2020 Ministerial Press Briefing in commemoration of the One-Year Anniversary of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu’s assumption of office on Wednesday, May 27.

“It is difficult to predict the end of COVID19. When we are going to see our peak is also dependent on the profile of the outbreak.

We are watching what’s happening across the world and using the pattern of the outbreak in different environments to try and reach some kind of modelling pattern to when we are going to peak and when we are going to see the end of the outbreak.

We believe that a period of four to six months is a reasonable period by which we should start to see a significant decline in the number of COVID19 cases that we pick up in Lagos.

By that stage, many people would have been exposed to the virus and therefore the virus will have less of an opportunity to infect people because they would have developed some degree of immunity to the virus and that would signify the end of COVID19” he said

Lagos State remains the epicenter of COVID-19 in Nigeria with 4012 confirmed cases as of May 28th 2020.
