National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, has shared how the wrong diagnosis led to the death of his late wife.
Oshiomhole who spoke at the Founders Day and Launching of Endowment fund of the University of Bénin Teaching Hospital (UBTH) revealed he would have sued the doctors if it were in another terrain because his wife was a victim of quack medical doctors.
Oshiomhole said,
“You visit a hospital, one doctor is gynaecologist, psychologist, pediatric, and the doctor treats everything. My wife was unfortunate to have been diagnosed as having something different while the cancer in her breast was growing.
“This generalized system of medical system is what we must review. It is not the task of government that things are not working. People elect government to make things work. That was why I decided to build what I called Five Star hospital to replace the decayed Central Hospital. I do hope that one day that hospital will open and you will see the equipment.
“One thing we need to do is appropriate compensation. When we have the right policy framework, the other level of compensation, people are paid according to, I believe doctors working outside the country will come back.”

Musa Usman, 60, a gateman quickly became a viral sensation on social media after he rejected a house gift from his Indian employer, in place of a borehole for his community.
According to a new report by The Sun Newspaper, Musa is now begging Nigerians for shelter.
This demand was made in Abuja, during a press conference on the #Shelter4MusaUsman campaign organised by Sharry Moore Strategic Konsult and an International Non-Governmental Organisation, WaterAid.
He said: “Everybody in my community is very happy because they have for so many years suffered lack of clean water. Some people in my village called me a fool for asking for water.
He said: “Everybody in my community is very happy because they have for so many years suffered lack of clean water. Some people in my village called me a fool for asking for water.
“They said I should have taken the house or demanded money to start rearing cows. I did what I thought and still know is right. I know I would be rewarded for it from almighty God.”
Speaking at the event, the Principal Consultant, Sharry Moore Strategic Konsult, Ipoade Omilaju, noted that aside its mandate to ensure personal hygiene, sensitize Nigerians on potable water, it had launched the campaign to support Musa for his humility and commitment.
“Our position is whether he gave away the house for construction of boreholes for his community or not; the fact remains that he has won for himself a good name through his commitment and uprightness as a gateman for 25 years leading to access of improved water source for the people of Giljimmi in Birniwa LG of Jigawa State,” Omilaju said.
While the international organisation demanded N1,000 each from at least 100,000 Nigerians, his Indian employer, Varkey Verghese, at the campaign, instantly donated N500,000 on behalf of 500 Nigerians.
According to Omilaju, “this campaign is to show the world that we are good people who appreciate commitment, sincerity and selflessness. We therefore call on 100,000 Nigerians to give just N1,000 and collectively we give Musa and family a befitting shelter.”
On his part, the Chairman of Water Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) Media Network, Wale Elekolusi, enjoined Nigerians to make their personal hygiene a priority, adding that it is expedient every stakeholder keys into ideas of provision of potable water to rural areas as Musa did.
Nigerian rapper, Olanrewaju Ogunmefun better known by his stage name, Vector, has faulted the harsh living conditions in the country to the emergence of youths taking up fraudulent acts.
According to Vector, the Federal Government needs to play it’s role in such a way that the youths can make better and informed choices in the interview at age.
Yahoo boys caught in Imo State
He said
“The youths need to adopt good mentors, rather than those who will lure them into fraudulent activities. The Internet age should afford the youths an opportunity to make better and informed choices. But the Federal Government must play its own role also. I see an advocacy group like Street Voices as a forum to lend their voices to critical issues affecting the youth and the Nigerian society as a whole”.
Looks like Nollywood actress, Regina Daniels is having the best and most fun marriage one could ask for – money, cars, fame and oh! nightclubs!
The actress has been spinning controversy upon controversies ever since it was announced that she’s married to Nigerian billionaire, Ned Nwoko.
For a while, we’ve spotted the actress with her husband in different functions and events, but more recent and quite controversial, is one where she’s spotted with the 59-year-old at a nightclub.
The actress, who is said to be pregnant, is seen in the video, seated next to her husband, who’s donned in a casual wear with sneakers, looking like a millennial, while the actress is seen holding shisha as she dances in the club.
The Federal Government has increased the monthly allowance of members of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) to 30,000.
Nigeria’s Finance Minister, Mrs. Zainab Ahmed disclosed this on Thursday in Abuja during a press conference where she added that the total sum of N649.434 billion was verified by the ministry as the outstanding balance to be refunded to the state governments.”
She, however, noted that the Federal Government is still working out modalities before the implementation of the new allowance for corps members.
She said, “The other aspect that should be clear is that there is an increase for the NYSC as well because NYSC, by its Act, is designed that they earn the minimum wage.”
“So, NYSC allowance also has to increase to N30, 000. So, I cannot give you projections right now because the negotiations are not yet concluded.”

A viral video showing a man burying fetish items in his shop in order to attract more customers has sparked a debate on social media with a cross-section of users defending the act.
The Video also caught the attention of Cameroonian Singer and Entrepreneur, who also defended his actions hinting that people were ignorant and being hypocritical in matters of African traditional worship.
Dencia
A popular twitter user who shared his thoughts on the issue wrote ;
This is a carpenter who, according to the news, was caught with “charms” buried in his own shop.
I have a few questions. You’re not obliged to answer, but these are questions I had in my head when I saw this video.
1) has he committed any crime by doing this?
2) if his intentions were to attract customers to his shop or business, what is the difference between what he has done and someone who mounts a rosary or an image of a God on his wall to attract and hope and pray for his or her business to grow and attract customers?
3) what’s the difference between what the carpenter did and those who use anointed handkerchiefs to cure ailments, raise the dead, heal the sick and hope to prosper?
4) if this carpenter believes that this “charm” will make his enemies fall and die, what is the difference between his belief and those who hold on to their religious books or symbols and they pray for their enemies to fall and die?
6) if you sue this carpenter to any court of competent jurisdiction, for allegedly possessing charms, will you successfully get a conviction?
In her reaction to the Gist, Dencia wrote ;
Y’all walk into Asian restaurants, nail shops, Hispanic ones with all type of juju looking things in front. They even feed these things but I don’t see y’all complaining about it. Let people believe in what they believe.
Nigeria’s Top Female Police officer, Dolapo Badmus has once again fired shots the way of embattled Singer Naira Marley.
The former Police PRO took to her social media to write ; ELEVEN!!! One down, more to go and due to the current situation involving Naira Marley and the Economic Financial Crimes Commission, people assumed she was talking about him.
See the exchange below ;
Dolapo Badmus did not hide her disdain for the comments made by the singer when he justified the criminal act of Internet Fraudsters.
Here’s Dolapo’s view and what she wishes yahoo boys and their supporters below:
Any one that supports Yahoo (Internet fraud) business needs to take his or her brain for check up and cleansing! How on earth will a sane person support daylight criminality. We can never degenerate as a nation! If we continue like this then one day we will wake up to see some people supporting robbery and terrorism! How I wish we can have a law that makes anyone openly canvassing for them as guilty as the fraudsters.
These fraudsters have demonized Nigeria and Nigerians! Our young entrepreneurs have lost business deals due to the activities of these Yahoo boys, our younger ones can’t even get Visas to visit countries offering them business opportunities. Yet we are here with some people defending and justifying this illegality!? We can’t afford to destroy this nation by our actions or inactions, that’s not what our forefathers envisioned.
I know some Yahoo Yahoo members and their family will catch fire ? with these post?but where is kanmi in the death of mama Adele?!?♀️ as if I care?! May All Yahoo boys disturbing the progress of our hardworking youths be caught and rot in jail? and May all supporting them fall victim of their activities!

Nigerian Sex therapist, Adunni has posted an insightful topic on her social media giving reasons why Nigerians are afraid of having proper sex.
Her post reads ;
Nigerians are afraid of having proper sex, in my Scope of work as a Sex therapist, I see these things daily and I’m scared for the future… why is it hard for Nigerian men to please their women? Why can’t you eat your wife out and stuff, why do women think for them to be wife materials you shouldn’t fuck your husband real good, why would you think to give your husband a mind blowing blowjob followed by a badtass doggie will not make u a wife material.
The men are also guilty of this hence they wife the lady who isn’t sexually satisfying and keep numerous girl friends then the moment you both are Comfortably married, the man moves on to start having numerous girls friends then years down the line the woman realizes how sexually frustrated she is and might start having flings too.
In this case i gotta agree with marrying your friend though because if you guys can be plain with one another and honest about sexual wants and needs then your relationship will blossom.
A man in Indonesia has been arrested on suspicion of terrorizing a mosque and destroying its public address system, an action that was allegedly motivated by his frustration at the mosque for disturbing his sleep during the holy month of Ramadan.
During Ramadan, the mosque holds tadarus (Quran recital) sessions, which it broadcasts using its loudspeakers, late every night and often into the morning.
On Sunday at around 3am, the man who lives close to the mosque, stormed the mosque during a tadarus session while holding a machete, scaring the congregation out of the mosque, before destroying the mosque’s loudspeakers.
When he was apprehended, NS told the authorities he snapped after days of being kept up by the mosque’s late night activities.
“We are still questioning the suspect,” Meulaboh Police Chief Budi Eka Putra said when asked by reporters about updates on the case yesterday.
A Nigerian Psychologist, Ofe di Oku, has revealed the struggles the late Akachi faced and how he sought help before he unfortunately took his own life.
Mr. Oku took to facebook to share ;
“People don’t just wake up in the morning and commit suicide. One hardly find such in story rails. Suicide is a deliberate planned act. It’s a sort of last resort especially to people suffering depressions and other forms of psychopathologies.
Most people that commit suicide have already planned out how to achieve this aim, where and when it should be carried out. Some give no chance for help till is carried out.
Here in UNN, by miracle I meet them in hidden places and at a specific time. Vet mountain, social science quadrangles, those buildings on your way to green house, some exculded parts of stadiums. Mostly by 12pm, 2am, 3pm, 10-11am, and at the wee hours of the morning.
In my second year I met a handful of them. This is because I always go home from 12am-5am, sometimes I go to morning mass at St. Peter’s very early by 4am, some other times I go to midnight prayers at lawn tennis court or visit the vet mountains for other needs mostly during the mid hours of the day. I met some in tears and others in a sober mood.
I’ve a fellow survivor that told me, I planned dying on my graduation day at a specific hour in a specific location. I’ve to employ the aid of Dr. Amah Benedicta and now she’s doing well.
Why did I write this. Human beings are delicate beings. No matter how much strong you claim to be, one thing must break you and your way of coping might not be your neighbors way of coping.
We have diverse ways of coping with stress and emotions. We all don’t have strong and healthy coping and emotion regulating mechanisms. Help those with faulty coping strategies. Be of help to them, don’t criticize them, don’t tell them where they should and should not be.
Goodnight”
Detectives from the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Ibadan zonal office got a dose of ‘corruption fighting back’ on Wednesday, when suspected internet criminals unleashed an attack dog on them in order to resist arrest.
Upon receipt of intelligence reports and launch of preliminary investigations into their illegal activities, officers of the commission in the early hours of Thursday stormed the suspects’ hideout at Agara area of Ibadan.
Instead of allowing them in, after proper introduction, one of the suspects instructed the guard to release the attack dog on the operatives. The trick, however, failed to work as it instead, made the detectives display their dexterity and professionalism.
They were able to dislodge the dangerous dog, carry out extensive search on the apartment and effect arrest of the suspects. Again, out of desperation to conceal useful information that could help the Commission in their investigation, one of the suspects smashed his android phone with the intention to destroy the gadget and deny access to the data therein.
The attempt equally failed as the operatives took possession of the broken phone, which is currently with the forensic unit, where analysis is being carried out to obtain data from it.
The second-in-command to the zonal head, Bright Igeleke, who led the operation, described the experience as part of the ‘hazards of the job’.
Suspects arrested in the operation are: Paul Afolabi, Balogun Ibrahim Adebayo, Izu Ibobo Chukwunalu, Abe Tolulope, Onifade Gidion Idowu, Komolafe Tosin and Igwe Kinsley Otuu. Similarly, operatives from the zone had earlier arrested four other suspects over their alleged involvement in cyber-related offences.
The suspects are: Adebisi Adewale Michael and Olowolayemo Olakunle Quddus, Opaaje Oluwatobi Isiah and Itowe Kelvin Olutayo. They are now under interrogation, and are giving useful information to the operatives in the quest to unravel the extent of their illegal activities.
Information obtained from them so far reveals that they used the internet to defraud unsuspecting victims while posing online as white ladies and foreign military officers. At the point of their arrest, a Lexus car, iPhones, other brands of phones and International Passports were recovered from them. All the arrested suspects will be charged to court as soon as investigations are concluded.

Controversial Nollywood actress and mother of one, Tonto Dikeh has revealed what she’ll do to her son, King Andre, should he grow up to become a wife beater.
The actress who days ago, gave shocking revelations about the father of her son, said she’ll actually get police to arrest her son if his wife reports to her that she was assaulted by him.
She says on the condition that her daughter-in-law is telling the truth, then she’ll actually have her son arrested cause that’s not the man she’ll raise him to be.
More than a week after Shokki Shitta was promised a million Naira by Davido – just days before the whole EFCC vs Naira Marley saga – the former has come out to reveal that the singer hasn’t fulfilled his promise.

Azeez Fashola aka Naira Marley will be charged to court on Monday, 20th of May 2019 where he’d be formally docked before a Lagos Federal High Court over allegations of card theft and forgery.
In all, the anti-graft agency in the case marked FHC/L/178c/19, has slammed 11-count charge against the musician and his cohorts, many of who are now at large.
Details of the court papers show that most of the charges border on use of forged or stolen access card to obtain money, offences, which are punishable by the Cyber Crimes Prohibition law of Nigeria.
Count One of the charges reads: “That you, Azeez Adeshina Fashola, aka Naira Marley and Yad Isril (still at large) on or about the 26th day of November 2018, within the jurisdiction of this Honourable Court conspired among yourselves to use access card No. 5264711020433662 issued to persons other than you in a bid to obtain gain and you thereby committed an offence contrary to Section 27 (1) (b) of the Cyber Crimes (Prohibition, Prevention, ETC) Act, 2015 and punishable under section 32 of the same act.

The Federal Road Safety Corps, FRSC has warned motorists to stop corrupting their officials with bribe – the newly deployed Zonal Commander, Assistant Corps Marshall, Imoh Etuk gave the warning in an interview with newsmen when he paid a familiarization visit to the Bauchi Sector Command of the FRSC.
He said the warning became necessary because bribes corrupt the men of the Corps and portray the FRSC in a bad light.
In his own words,
“I charged them to be more visible on the highway, to eschew all forms of corruption and to ensure that issues of overloading are nipped in the bud. Just yesterday (Tuesday), the Vice President (Yemi Osinbajo) said nobody should give bribe to any officer, to Police and so on.
“I’m also saying that don’t bribe our men. Do the needful. You don’t need to be bribing our people, do the needful and you’ll not run foul of the law. It is when you are deficient that you’ll want to use money.
“Don’t use money to do anything because the anti-corruption squad of the Corps will go out to ensure that these things are properly monitored. I am warning them to obey the traffic rules rather than using money especially during this Ramadan.”
Speaking on the Bauchi-Jos and Bauchi-Gombe roads that have become death traps with accidents occurring almost on a daily basis, he said he has charged the officers and men of the State sector Command that “the crashes on these roads and everywhere in the zone must be reduced to the barest minimum.”
On the May 29th handing over, he said the three Sector Commands in the Zone have put up a strategic traffic control plan, adding that the Special Marshalls will do route-lining to ensure that the issue of congestion in the city is nipped in the bud.

The EFCC boss who was represented by Head, Advance Fee Fraud and Other Fraud Related Offences, Ilorin Zonal Office, Olamide Sadiq said anyone caught for offences bordering on internet fraud would be detained, prosecuted and jailed.
According to him, “if you use pictures that do not belong to you just with intent to defraud someone, it is impersonation. You have committed an offence that carries five years imprisonment.
“I am emphasising to you on the need to desist from cyber crimes. If you are found to be in possession of fraudulent documents, you have committed a criminal offence which has a great consequence.”The EFCC boss informed the students that the Commission has special powers to cause investigations into anyone or corporate body, suspected to have participated in economic and financial crimes.”
When it comes to issue of internet fraud, Section 7 of the EFCC Act gives a special power to the Commission to investigate anyone suspected to have committed internet crimes. “A police officer can arrest an internet fraudster and bring him/her to the Commission. If we find out that the person is innocent, we will allow him or her to go.”

A 24-year-old lady, Nana (not her real name) has revealed how she slept with 600 men for survival in her prostitution business.
According to Nana, she used what she has to get what she needs after her boyfriend who was sponsoring her education abandoned her midway following lies told against her by jealous friends.

Her words ;
“My boyfriend whom I met when I went to visit an uncle who was sponsoring my education. We had agreed to get married as soon as possible.
Then some people I regarded as friends started peddling wicked lies against me and without confirming if what they were saying was true or false, he called it quits just like that. They told him I had an incurable disease.
So, I decided to help myself because my parents cannot do anything for me. We are poor. My father used to be a driver but he is now unemployed while my mother is a full time housewife. Sometimes, she sells vegetables,”
“They were paying me GH¢150 a month and you work late hours. But if you go out to hustle in the night, you can get that kind of money within a day or two. About 600 men slept with me from last year to this year.”
But Nana is now singing a different tune. She said that she later discovered that prostitution is not as lucrative as she had thought.
She said that she is tired of warming men’s bed every night, adding that she wants to settle down.
