Son allegedly brutalizes father and mother over land dispute in Delta State

A disturbed father is lamenting after his son, a primary school teacher allegedly beat him and his wife up over land in Delta state.

Benson Ekpenisi, 78, who hails from Owan-Nta Aliosimi in Ika North East Local Government Area of Delta State, revealed that himself and his wife have faced so much suffering in the hands of their fifth son, Patrick Ekpenisi, who teaches at Okundaye Primary School.

According to Benson, the latest attack Patrick launched on him and his wife was over a parcel of land offered for sale by him – Benson.

Mr Benson stated that his son was enraged after he discovered that he (Benson) planned to sell a piece of land to repair the leaking roof of his house and use the rest to take care of their needs.

Speaking to Ika Times newspaper, Pa Benson Ekpenisi said,

“The story started many years ago when my son Patrick Ekpenisi who is the fifth among my children had been threatening to kill me and the mother and he had been saying it with the boast that he has political and royal backup.

“On several occasions, he had said that no policeman from Ika North East and Ika South Local Government can arrest him because he will be released by the politicians in Ika federal constituency.”

Benson Ekpenisi continued,

“I was sitting under a palm tree in my compound on Friday when Patrick came out from his house, which is opposite mine at Boji-Boji Owa-Nta, Aliosimi, and started pointing fingers at me and shouting that the land I was about to sell to repair my leaking roof could not be sold, that it should be given to him.

“I told him that he couldn’t tell me what to do with my own land. Besides, the land where he built his house was given to him by me. That was how trouble started and he hit my head on the palm tree.

The publication, in its report, claims that Patrick carried his father up and slammed him on the ground several times, and also tried killing him by hitting his head against the palm tree he was sitting under but the old man managed to escape.

Benson Ekpenisi added,

“My son threatened to kill me and his mother; he broke the plastic chair his mother was sitting on and used it to hit her head, but the old woman was quick enough to run into the house through the back door and locked the door against him. He tried breaking the door with some objects but didn’t succeed.”

Benson said that that was not the first time that Patrick would beat him and his wife up. He lamented that he has reported the matter to several authorities, including to the Owa Oyibu Divisional Police Station, but none has been able to intervene.

The distraught father called on the state government and other relevant authorities to quickly come to his aide before his son kills him and his wife.

Another son of Benson Ekpenisi, David Ekpenisi, complained about his brother’s behavior.

He said,

“I am speechless. For over three years, Patrick, a primary school teacher, has never allowed my parents to rest. I am calling on the AIG, the DPO of Owa-Oyibu, the NUT Ika North-East and the governor of Delta State to come to our aid.

“Patrick boasted countless times that he is above the law.”

I feel fulfilled, happier and more blessed after going back to Islam from Christianity — Actress Adunni Ade

Nollywood Actress, Adunni Ade has said that she feels fulfilled, and became happier after converting back to Islam.

Hear her speak below;

Do you know why I hardly talk about Religion on here? It is quite sensitive for me. The prejudgment that comes with it and all. You’ve gotta be extremely close to me know what I practice.

So for the curious ones who have been asking, Yes I am a Muslim. Born into a Muslim home and was raised as one. If you care to know, B2 in my WAEC Examination. ?

I have a loving Muslim Father who has given his children the free will to choose any religion they like be it Christianity or Islam. My Mom is a Christian, though not a practicing one. My Step mom is a Christian, My step sisters are Christians, my Step brothers are Muslims.

Have I been to a Church before? Plentyyyyy of them. I once converted, name the Church, MFM, RCCG, CLAM, CAC sure been there but one thing was certain, Islam never left me. My ways of dealing, my upbringing, all I learnt was from a Muslim and was what I truly knew. I was scared what folks would think about me if I went back to Islam and this went on for years. About 4 years ago, dec 31st 2016 I decided I would live my life for ME. Me alone! I came back to Islam. I feel fulfilled. I’m happier. I have received more Blessings this way. My Oldest son practices Islam, prays and Fasts as well.

Yes, I wear what I like, be it modest or not. Who are you to decide my inner intentions.

You know, it’s easy for you to type on your key pads and make assumptions, but folks who know me will say otherwise.

Islam I was taught teaches me that we are judged on our intentions by Allah alone. What’s within, not what you see.

Not looking for acceptance from anyone. I want people to live their life’s to it’s full potentials. Worry less of what the next fellow is doing. Judge less, focus on you and you alone and watch great things happen to you.

As Muslims do know, during the month of Ramadan, the Heavens are opened to accept our supplications and prayers and Hell is Closed and satan is caged down there. Let’s use this time wisely! I experienced Allah’s Greatness this time last year. I am looking forward to receiving my Blessings this year and every other day afterwards.

I hope I’ve been able to clarify a few things…. y’all have a lovely night rest.

He said such a person cannot be the one except the devil wants to set a trap to end the man.

He said that kind of woman can be likened to a panther who consumes one’s value.

The social commentator asked his male followers to consider things carefully before they jump into marriage if they do not want to regret their decision and weep. He said: “Look before you leap, or you will rue and weep. Marriage to a panther is damage, not marriage”.

Most people who contract Coronavirus don’t feel sick – Lagos State Health Commissioner

Akin Abayomi tests positive

Lagos State Health Commissioner, Prof Akin Abayomi, stated that most people infected with coronavirus don’t feel sick, they can be exercising daily and feel generally well but are secreting and transmitting the virus everywhere they go.

Akin Abayomi

The Lagos State Health Commissioner shared this information during a chat on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily programme on Saturday.

He said;

“ We ’ve moved from the imported stage to the community transmission stage and the virus is now jumping around and it is a highly contagious virus ; it spreads very easily.

“ The difference between flu and coronavirus is that if you catch the flu , you will know you have flu . You ’ll be terribly unwell , there will be no doubt that you are sick .

“ Most people don ’t actually know they have coronavirus . About sixty to seventy percent of people have a very mild illness it might just feel as if you had a rough day but you ’ re secreting the virus and therefore you ’re transmitting it.

“ And therefore a moderate proportion of people have symptoms and a smaller proportion will have a severe and critical illness. You could have coronavirus and be jogging. That’ s mild it could be. ”
He said the state is aware of the difference in the social segments of Lagosians and is working on policies suitable for different strata and parts of the society .

He said , “ Every segment of Lagos requires a slightly different strategy. It can ’t be the same cap fits all . Someone in Victoria Island doesn’ t have the same priority as someone in Makoko for example. What Mr Governor is trying to do is to size up all the respective situations . He gets his situation analysis every day . He debates with his cabinet.

“ Livelihood is the priority and COVID -19 is just a threat to livelihood . There are many other threats to livelihood . And so in life, you balance those threats . And that other threat may be hunger or other kinds of sicknesses .

“ Lockdown is a component of social distancing and there are many factors to social distancing . What we are trying to do is to reduce the opportunity for the virus to travel from one person to another .

“ If seventy percent of Lagosians are in the informal sector , they have no safety net, they live from day – to -day . What they earn is what they eat , it ’s not like a higher social – economic segment that has reserves.

“ It is important that you allow your imaginations to infiltrate this segment of society and make realistic decisions that don ’ t disconnect you from these people . You could have a double assault in both ways if you make the wrong kind of decisions . ”

Allow Us To Go Into Isolation Centres And Heal Coronavirus Patients – Apostle Suleman Urges FG (Video)

Apostle Suleman

Founder of Omega Fire Ministry, Apostle Johnson Suleman, has called on the federal government to allow pastors heal COVID-19 patients through prayers.

This is despite the fact that the World Health Organisation (WHO) had warned people against unscientific claims suggesting cure for the respiratory disease caused by coronavirus.

According to Church Times, the clergyman said there was need for the government to grant permission to those with gift of divine healing to visit isolation centres and heal people with the killer virus.

Suleman claimed that such measure is needed if the country hopes to make meaningful progress in the fight against the novel disease.

“Please (referring to the government) permit us to go and pray for COVID-19 patients. Allow us to go there (isolation centres), that is why there are men of God,” he said.

“If you are really anointed to pray for the sick, this is the time because what is holding the world is sickness. So, we’re begging the government to permit us into isolation centres, that is the only way we can reduce this nonsense because it will improve everyday.

“There are people with the gift of healing, God has gifted them to pray for the sick. It is not fake, gimmick or arranged. It is there in them. Permit us so that we can prove there are prophets in Nigeria.”

He added that such permission from the government would also reduce the backlash many pastors have been getting on social media about their perceived inability to do anything about the pandemic.

“Permit us so that the ridicule and all that can reduce. We’re not telling you we can heal all of them but by the time we are through with them, you’ll see significant difference. If they are 20 before, at least 18 will be cleared because that is what God can do,” he said.

Suleman further stretches the list of religious leaders who believe the killer virus could be handled through divine intervention.
