A vlogger hanged himself after he was found “sobbing uncontrollably” because he misplaced his iPhone at an Arctic Monkeys party last year, an inquest heard.
Archie Day, 20, of Bishop Stortford, Herts in England, took his own life on October 5 at Peel Park halls of residence at Salford University in Greater Manchester.
A coroner said the undergraduate was “extremely upset” about losing his phone before he hanged himself. His family believe he did not intend to kill himself – blaming excessive drinking at the club night for contributing to him ”not thinking rationally.”
Archie, a keen Instagram vlogger and broadcast journalism student, had a history of depression and anxiety but told his family it had become less of an issue, an inquest heard.
In a statement, his flatmate Kane Markham said Archie’s friends were aware of his mental health battles but didn’t realise the severity. His Instagram page featured a post that read “Should have died already” and he listened to songs about depression, claimed Kane.
Kane said Archie had drunk “at least four drinks of Stella” that night, as well as sipping other people’s drinks. A 2.30am he messaged his friends asking where they were and they jokingly told him they had returned home.
When the group got into a cab they couldn’t find Archie and later found him “sobbing uncontrollably” in his digs with a security guard. When Kane returned from lectures that day Archie’s door was still locked and he left his friend alone.
The phone was later found 220 miles away in Romford, Essex, but it was never recovered.
Tests showed Archie had 225 milligrams per 100 millilitres of blood in his system, more than twice the legal limit.

A Nigerian lady identified as Might Adaugo Green has got herself trending on social media after she claimed that an original vagina must have an odour.
According to the young lady, every p***sy must have an odour oozing out if it’s the original.
See her post below;
“Any p***y without a little bit odour,is not original p***y?”
The friendship between Nollywood actress, Tonto Dikeh and Nigerian cross dresser, Bobrisky, is known and the pair always seize every opportunity to hit the headlines with their social media posts.
Over the past, she has always gush out her love and respect for the transvestite and has now shared lovely photos from their outing during the weekend.
Sharing the lovely photos, she wrote;
“I had a magical weekend..Thanks to God and all my Guys them.. Truly TRULY HAPPINESS IS FREE AND UNTIL YOU EMBRACE IT, IT STANDS STARING AT YOU. ????????? @bobrisky222 Toh bad love you.”
Reports by “Rolling Stone” reveal that Davido’s song, Fall is taking over radio stations in the United States of America.
The American monthly magazine that focuses on popular culture described the song as one of the biggest to ever come out of Africa.
Check out the full report here;
The Nigerian style of music known as Afrobeats has quietly entranced a large swathe of the world’s population. “Pretty much every song on pop radio [in the U.K. now] is sort of a Mr. Eazi-style, chill, afrobeats [track],” the producer Riton told Rolling Stone last year. But Nigerian singers have not yet established a foothold Stateside, despite well-received, afrobeats-dusted singles from established stars like Drake and Janet Jackson.
So it’s unusual that “Fall,” a springy, 19-month-old track from the Nigerian singer DaVido, is currently gaining traction on the airwaves. The growth has been gradual: 482 plays to date, spread across 36 stations, according to Nielsen BDS, which tracks radio activity. BDS reports that four new stations added “Fall” into rotation last week.
Those are admittedly not huge numbers — for comparison’s sake, Post Malone’s new single “Wow” grew by 1,700 plays last week alone. But listeners who hear “Fall” are scrambling to find their phones: It was one of the Top 100 most Shazam’d singles in America this week. In New York City, “Fall” was a Top 10 record on Shazam. And in Atlanta, another crucial market, only two tracks were getting more Shazam activity than DaVido’s.
Eliciting that level of interest in America is no small feat for an African singer. Columbia signed “Pana,” a 2016 single from Tekno, but wasn’t able to transform it into a U.S. hit. RCA signed Wizkid, the guest on Drake’s “One Dance,” but hasn’t been able to get a hit either. (RCA is also working with DaVido now.) Burna Boy, another Nigerian singer with impressive talent, is now affiliated with Atlantic, but his “Rock Your Body” didn’t reach a wide audience in America.
That has nothing to do with the music — “Pana” and “Rock Your Body” are both indelible polyrhythmic pop songs, wonderfully weightless next to the lead-footed trap that currently dominates both rap and pop radio in America.
But the machinery that creates hits in the U.S. remains conservative, even in the supposedly “new” era brought on by streaming.
Nowhere is this more true than at radio, which throws its still-considerable weight behind only a tiny number of tracks — “A Top 40 radio station is playing five songs 120 times a week every week,” according to one radio insider — and rarely takes risks on music that doesn’t align with seemingly-ancient-if-not-totally-incomprehensible norms.
Mainstream “urban” radio usually won’t play Latin trap next to American trap, even if the same producers worked on both tracks, or pivot from hard hip-hop into soft R&B. Meanwhile, pop radio tries hard to ignore viral rap records, which programmers characterize as “pretty extreme,” in favor of bizarre but ostensibly more palatable concoctions by Panic! at the Disco or Marshmello.
Even some Top 40 programmers are confused by this tendency: “I don’t know when everybody’s gonna get it through their heads that we can’t just keep forcing these pop songs that nobody likes down everybody’s throat,” Nathan Graham told Rolling Stone last year.
Radio also depends on a favor system of sorts: Artists play station concerts, stop by for interviews and record drops to help get their music onto the air.
This is costly for artists without American passports. “To work the U.S. is big money — even getting music onto radio in New York alone might cost you upwards of $100 or $200 grand,” the Nigerian star Mr. Eazi explained to Rolling Stone last year. That’s another reason why, “at the end of the day, nobody has properly broken an African act in the U.S.”
It’s too early to tell if DaVido can establish a new path from Nigeria to the American airwaves — his team only recently started “attacking US radio properly,” according to an email from the singer’s manager, Asa Asika.
But there’s no denying that when listeners hear DaVido’s music, they are immediately compelled to figure out who sings it.
And that’s not just the case with “Fall.” This week New Yorkers were also trying to determine who steals the show on local rapper Casanova’s new single “2am” (Shazaming Top 25). Surprise — it’s DaVido. He is also the artist behind the 2017 track “If,” which is Shazaming Top 50 in New York.
DaVido’s success appears to be a boon for other Nigerian artists as well.
Afro B’s “Drogba (Joanna)” was even higher than “Fall” on New York Shazam this week. If more radio programmers are willing to give these artists a chance, they may be pleasantly surprised by the results.
Reacting to this, Davido took to his Instagram page to appreciate Rollingstone in a post that read;
A Prophet at a Cherubim and Seraphim church, was beaten to death in Ekiti after he was reportedly caught eating bread and feces.
The said Prophet who is the head cleric at Cherubim and Seraphim Church at Apata Isegun located on Mathew street, Ado Ekiti, Ekiti State, was reportedly caught eating a combination of soft bread and feces.
He was first stripped naked by the angry mob which gathered, paraded round the neighbourhood and then beaten to death in front of his church. This is coming few days after a man was nearly lynched by a mob, after he was allegedly caught at a refuse dump collecting faeces and putting it into a polythene bag in same Ekiti State.
A 56-year-old mother of five girls was left heartbroken when her husband suddenly abandoned her after 30 years of marriage, because she had not given him a son to continue his family name.
Thembeni Khuboni from KwaMancinza in KZN South Africa, said her husband, Simon, started acting strangely early last year.
She soon discovered that he was having an affair with a young lady working in his office.
“When I asked him why he did it, he just left our home. I heard that he was living with the girl in Phoenix, Durban. I tried calling him but he wouldn’t answer the phone,” she said.
Thembeni said in the middle of 2018, Simon told her he wanted her to give him a son.
“I told him I couldn’t. I have five daughters with him and he was happy before. Now suddenly he wants a son. I told him I can’t do that,” she told Daily Sun ZA
According to Thembeni,after she told her husband she didn’t want a 6th child, he left the house but not before telling her he would find a woman who could give him a son.
“In September, he came home with a photo of a baby he had with his nyatsi. Unfortunately, the baby is also a girl,” she said.
When the Sun contacted him, Simon said he was not the first man to want a son to continue his line.

Former Super Eagles World Cup star, Efetobore Sodje, and two of his brothers are currently being locked up in Jail for fraud in the UK.
The ex-footballer, alongside his brothers Stephen Sodje, 43, and ex-rugby player Bright Sodje, 52, were given prison sentences for fraud last year.
The three brothers were found to have siphoned off more than £60,000 given to the Sodje Sports Foundation (SSF), a National Crime Agency (NCA) investigation found.
They were reportedly jailed in September 2018. Efe Sodje for 18 months, Bright Sodje for 21 months, and Stephen Sodje for two years and six months at the Central Criminal Court in relation to the fraud.
On Monday, a judge at the same court lifted reporting restrictions preventing publication of the result of that trial, following the completion of a separate trial involving their other brother and former Reading and Nigeria footballer Sam Sodje, 39.
Efe, Bright and Stephen Sodje set up the organization in 2009 with the aim to relieve poverty, advance good health in people through the provision of facilities in playing amateur sports and the promotion of lifelong learning, leadership skills and health issues such as HIV/AIDS, drugs abuse, and nutrition in the Niger Delta. But instead, the money they realized at black-tie dinners, auctions, charity football matches, and a clay pigeon shoot, went into their accounts.

Every child has different ways of learning. Some learn fast when they learn from their peers, some learn quite well when they are alone and some learn very well when they are with a private home tutor.
Getting a good private home tutor can be a bit difficult, but if you get one the efforts you put is not a waste. Things have been made easy and you don’t really have to do all the background check for a home tutor cause companies like Prepclass has done the right check and you don’t really have to stress on any work.
Below are factors to consider to see in a very good home tutor.
1. How experienced is the home tutor?
The first factor you would have to take in hiring a good home tutor is hiring someone with good experience in teaching that subject. Experience speaks a lot about the home tutor. Experience also shows that the home has had quite a number of students that have excelled under his name.
2. The Tutor Must Have Good Communication Skills
Another factor to consider when hiring a good home tutor is the communication skills of the tutor. Communication is an important factor in one on one tutoring. The English proficiency of the home tutor has to be checked by the person hiring the tutor to ensure there is no language barrier between the person to be taught and the home teacher.
3. The home tutor must be passionate
The last point here is to get a tutor that has a passion for the subject he teaches and should also be passionate to teach the subject also. The goal of every good tutor is to make the student develop a passion for the subject.

A Nigerian referee who officiated the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) match day three encounter on Sunday, January 20 between Remo Stars and Bendel Insurance, was beaten mercilessly by supporters who attacked him shortly after the match.
The Nigerian referee was beaten by fans of the Sagamu based football club, who were not impressed with the way he officiated the match. It was gathered that Remo Stars were held to a 1-1 draw at home by Bendel Insurance.
Charles Omokaro had put the visitors ahead, before Skipper Victor Mbaoma equalised for the Kennedy Boboye’s side. However with two minutes left on the clock, Remo thought they had secured the three points after Victor Mbaoma scored from close range from a well worked freekick only for the referees to ruled the effort out for offside.
Remo Stars management who released a statement over the assault incident, vowed to apprehend the perpetrators. The statement reads;
“A manhunt has started immediately as the management of the club and the Nigeria Police Force Sagamu division are working closely to ensure that the intruder is brought to book to face the consequences of his actions.“
“We totally regret and condemn this act as we don’t encourage violence in football.
“In the same vein of condeming this act we would also like to indicate that the centre referee Bethel Nwanesi calls all through the game were questionable and in the 88th minute a good goal was scored, which would have been the winning goal, was ruled offside and disallowed by the referee which caused an uproar among the fans.
“This of course is no reason why anyone should get hurt, we have lost games at home in the past against Plateau United, Enyimba FC, MFM FC, Rivers United without witnessing such violence.
We also want to make a staunch warming to supporters or individuals who come with the intention of disrupting or causing violence in the stadium as the club will severely deal with anyone found guilty of such behaviour.”
A man has taken to his Instagram page to rant about how armed robbers invaded a popular eatery in Lagos, where they were having lunch, and robbed customers without any interruption.

A blind woman identified as Smangele Dhladhla from Diepkloof, Soweto, South Africa, who has a one-year-old baby girl, in an interview disclosed that she doesn’t need eyes to take care of her baby.
The blind woman who christened her daughter Katekani, which means blessing, said the first day she visited the clinic to confirm her pregnancy, she was asked if she was raped.
“I’m blind but I’m not stupid. I need hands, ears and a nose to do my work as a mother,” said Smangele.
“I am human too. I have feelings and I have a boyfriend. He is also blind.”
The lady who is a goalball player for the Western Gauteng team in Roodepoort, a game designed specifically for athletes with a vision impairment, started playing three years ago as a reserve. The players compete in teams of three, and try to throw a ball that has bells embedded in it into the opponents’ goal. The ball is thrown by hand and never kicked.
“At first I didn’t take it seriously but then I went for trials where they were looking for players to represent South Africa at the Paraplegic Games. “I wasn’t selected but coach Phillip Williams noticed my playing skills.
“Now I’m the captain of the team and I play centre,” she said.
President Buhari who replied the 16-page open letter written by Olusegun Obasanjo, dubbed the former President a ‘coward’ and further threatened to teach him a political lesson he will never forget.
Buhari who replied Obasanjo in a statement titled ‘Get Well Soon’, accused the former President of handpicking his candidates against all known rules of the party that got him into power.
It was further claimed that the former President has never allowed any succeeding leader of the country function freely.
The statement reads in full;
PRESIDENCY TO OBASANJO: GET WELL SOON
The sixteen-page letter the former President, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, wrote to President Muhammadu Buhari and released this afternoon is the last push by desperate politicians who can’t handle the President politically and have resorted to subterfuge.
Our first message to the former President is that he needs a good doctor for good treatment and to say to him, “Get well soon.”
As repeatedly said of him, since Chief Obasanjo left office in 1979, he never let every succeeding leader of the country function freely, and this included the one he personally handpicked against all known rules drawn up by the party that put him in the office of the President. But Chief Obasanjo is jealous because President Buhari has more esteem than him and the sooner he learns to respect him the better.
It is a notorious fact that in dealing with any leader that he failed to control, he resorted to these puerile attacks. As the grand patron, more correctly the grandfather of corruption as described by the National Assembly, Chief Obasanjo released today’s letter purely for the reason of rescuing his thriving corruption establishment.
The elections starting in February will be free and fair as promised the nation and the international community by President Buhari.
What Chief Obasanjo and his co-travelers in the PDP should expect is that from the outcome, we will teach them a political lesson that they will never forget. This margin will be much bigger than we had in 2015.
Claims that President Buhari and the All Progressives Congress (APC) have embarked on the president’s “self- succession project, by recruiting collation officers who are already awarding results based on their projects to actualise the perpetuation agenda, in which the people will not matter and the votes will not count” is not only utterly false, but a copious note from the book on the failed third term agenda of President Obasanjo.
The man, President Buhari who has taken Nigeria’s reputation to a higher level internationally and is working hard to improve on the records of elections he found in place cannot descend to the level that Obasanjo has himself sunk.
As for his attacks of the administration’s records in fighting corruption, what the former President said is no more than evidence that President Buhari’s war against corruption is succeeding. They thought it is all a joke.
A leader who took USD 16 billion “upfront” to supply electric power yet failed to add a single megawatt to the national grid and to date, there is no trace of the money is jittery that he will be called to account. He is a coward.
Chief Obasanjo, manifesting a confused state of mind blames President Buhari for the fall of Libya into a failed state and the unholy alliance between the Boko Haram terrorists and the ISIS, while at the same time calling it an African problem, saying “the struggle must be for all West African, Central African, North African and most East African States,” which really does not amount to saying anything new.
Nigerians looked up to him as a role model and a ray of hope to ethical and clean leadership until President Yar’Adua called him out to explain what happened to the sixteen billion dollars of taxpayer’s money. It is clear that with him sitting on top of the heap of corruption, he is no different from the crowd he leads.
This language of his 16-page letter, likening President Buhari to General Sani Abacha, a man he dreaded and the one who jailed him under military laws is most unfitting from a former President of Nigeria.
The claim that President Buhari has put in place rigging machinery is both outlandish and outrageous. We are unable to get the words to describe a 90-year old liar, except to say that by the publication of this tissue of lies against the President, he Obasanjo, not the President will fall from everyone’s esteem.
