Jazz musician continues to play guitar while surgeons operate on his brain to remove tumor (Video)

A jazz musician with a brain tumour continued to play his guitar during his brain surgery in South Africa – Musa Manzini, from South Africa, played his guitar during the successful operation.

According to one of the neurosurgeons, Dr. Rohen Harrichandparsad, the playing of the guitar helped guide surgeons during the delicate surgery whilst “preserving natural pathways“.

Mr Manzini was given local anaesthetic by doctors during the procedure, also known as an “awake craniotomy” at Inkosi Albert Luthuli Central Hospital in Durban.

Dr Harrichandparsad said:

It increased the margin of safety for us, in that we could have real-time feedback on what we were doing intraoperatively.

Doctors said they gave Mr Manzini his instrument toward the end of the procedure so they could check that everything was in order. The doctors wanted to test Mr Manzini’s “ability to produce music” during surgery, which requires the complex interaction of pathways in the brain.

A photo and video taken by the medical team shows the musician lying with his guitar in the operating room.

“There you are, do your thing,” a team member says as he begins playing.

In an “awake craniotomy,” some doctors choose to stimulate parts of the brain with a mild electrical current as a way of testing and mapping areas that control key functions of the brain such as movement and speech. If a patient is struggling to speak when the current is applied to a particular area, doctors know they must protect it during tumour removal.

Man testifies of how Jesus rescued him from kidnappers in Port Harcourt (Photos)

A Nigerian man, Kingsley Nzom, has taken to his Facebook page to testify of how God rescued him from kidnappers in Port Harcourt, Rivers state.

He gave his quite lengthy testimony as thus,

Jesus saved me from Kidnappers.

On Saturday, 15th Dec 2018, I left Lagos to Portharcourt. I traveled with Okeyson transport company. The driver was as fast as a lazy pregnant snail.

We were ambushed at Elele in Rivers state. About 10-15 young men, with auto rifles, shotguns, matchets, etc. They let the driver go, took the rest of us into the bush blindfolded. Every night they move us to a different “barrack”. We’re always been moved; blindfolded, hands tied, legs tied too.
The first night wasn’t really a hassle for me as they shared my properties; wears, phones, cash, collected our ATM pins for the money in the accounts.
We were always blindfolded except at nights.

The next day, they advised us to quickly raise money and pay them if not, they were going to sell off our private parts and skulls to ritualists. They contacted this Alhaji (I don’t know if it was to scare us, but I heard the man, he had the Fulani accent) but he said he can’t come there on a Sunday.

We were made to contact our families on Monday so they can pay our ransoms; N1million. According to them, the Alhaji will come that Monday night, so they gave us till 4pm that Monday to pay, or be sold off in pieces to Alhaji.
I contactes my younger brother, asked him to call Dickson and sha give him the update, he laughed on hearing the amount, his hysterical laugh irked them so deeply they took off the steam by landing more blows on me. Where man pikin keep 2milly?

I percieved the smell of dope, I begged to take a hit, whoever it was obliged, from there we started talking, we’d gist briefly, hit blunt together, he’ll even give me water. At other times, I dey collect beating.
That Monday night, they were already having issues among themselves. They complained that their Oga didn’t bring the Alhaji, neither is he in the bush with them, that they left them in the bush while the rest have gone to town to flex. I silently prayed.
Tuesday morning, 18th December 2018, the band on my wrist was loose, I called on one of them to come tighten it because if they notice by themselves, na beating go follow as they assume that you trying to escape, but he said he’ll be back. That meant he’s going somewhere. After a while, we couldn’t hear their chatter, it happened that the ones manning us took a stroll.

How three people watching us decided to leave us without anyone watching was something only God could do. At first, I thought it was a trap.
It wasn’t difficult untying myself as mine was loose already. I untied the rest of us, Na so we cut out oo. We spent about 25-30mins in the bush trying to find our way out, following the direction from where the sound of speeding vehicles came, till we got to the express road.

“How I was able to avoid distractions from men” – Pretty First class student shares

A female student from Katsina state has impressed many online after scoring the highest Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) in the history of the Physics department of Usmanu Danfodiyo University Sokoto.

Miss Zainab Bashir graduated with a CGPA of 4.87 which is the highest CGPA anyone had gotten since the department was founded.

Zainab who is an indigene of Katsina stated in an interview with Katsina Post correspondent, that her ambition before was to study medicine.

However, she was offered Physics which she was very good at while in secondary school. She fell in love with it and with God’s help, made the best of it.

“My first choice was to study Medicine and Surgery but then, Almighty Allah guided me to the potential in me which I didn’t realise before. Physics in secondary school was such a nice subject to me that I had no fear of approaching it’s calculations and it was always my best science subject.

So I regard what happened with my jamb score as a blessing in disguise. Alhamdulillah!”, she said.

In her words:

“Since the time I lost my first choice I groomed my ambition to have this class of degree.
And this is not the end of my dream as I hope to pursue the brightful colours of my career In Shaa Allah!”

She explained that the advice of her father and the mindset of never giving up spurred her morale for chasing such a tremendous feat as she had, over time, been discouraged by many people that her mission could never be achieved.

When asked whether she had ever stumbled due to wrong grades or gotten discouraged by failure, she replied that she never experienced such except for her final year project where she was given a C in spite of her hard-work and dedication and all are previous results were either As or Bs.

Zainab who lived in Sokoto town with her parents all through her program explained that, she never engaged in popular style of reading among students called TDB (Till Day Break).

As a young lady endowed with a beautiful face, speaking on how she was able to avoid distractions from the opposite sex, she explained that the fact that she was engaged made her safe from that and also, she was diplomatic in dealing with boys and prioritizing her studies more than any other thing.

The valedictorian also explained that she didn’t engage in any extra-curricular activity while she exploited her leisure time to watch dramas and chit-chat with friends as all work and no play makes jack a dull boy.

When asked what her plan after graduation is, she said that she wishes to get married and become a teacher/lecturer who will impact knowledge on young minds.

She finally advised fellow students to focus on their studies and to set their priorities straight.

Lady raises $2,380 by selling videos of her feet online

A young mum found a way to save up thousands of dollars to fund her family’s Christmas by selling pictures of her feet online in bizarre business move

21 year old, Kayla Woods, from Florida, claims she has earned $2,380 (N866,320) since last December by selling pictures and videos of her feet online and going on platonic dates.

Kayla’s customers have made a range of unusual requests, such as asking her to rub her feet on vegetables and bathe them in oil. One client even asked her to write their name on her instep with a marker pen.

Customers have the option of paying their tab by purchasing items on Kayla’s Amazon wish list. Consequently, she now has a smartwatch, a baby bouncer and a $300 Nintendo Switch console nestled beneath her tree.

The mother-of-one’s alternative money-making method came about after she joined the dating site in 2015, where men pay between $100 (£79) and $200 (£158) for a date.

She said;

“About 12 months ago I was going on dates with someone who had this particular interest. I had been on a date with him, and I felt comfortable.

“I was sending him selfies, and then he asked me to send a picture of my feet.

“I had always thought my feet were deplorable, awful and ugly but he didn’t seem to think so.

“After I sent the pictures, it gave me a lot of confidence. He paid me for the pictures and I realised there must be other people willing to do that too”.

Nigerian Army introduces drones

The Nigerian Army has introduced new technologies and application of drones in the fight against terrorists in the northeast.

Lt. Gen. Tukur Buratai, the Chief of Army Staff (COAS), disclosed this while fielding questions at a dinner and media interactive session organised for editors and defence correspondents in Maiduguri on Saturday.

Buratai said that applications of drones and new technologies were critical in modern warfare to ensure successful implementation of the counter insurgency campaign.

He disclosed that the army had utilised drones in surveillance and research, adding that the process was effective in execution of its operations against the dreaded Boko Haram insurgents.

Buratai said: “now, even the uniform is technology-based, it will be tagged wherever you are; it sends signal when you are in danger, and these issues are very important. “Technology is playing important role in warfare and we are not left out; we have in place a transformation and innovation department.

“The department is working on research and developments not only on basic equipment but equally more scientific and technological facilities to enable us to carry out our operations.

We are also working on deployment of drones; the Nigerian Air Force has been deploying drones in our operations in the northeast and they are deploying more, it has been very effective in this operation.

“For surveillance, local drones are deployed and when new ones are also deployed, it will be effective and useful in the operation”.

According to him, the military has also deployed modern military hardware, rehabilitated office and house accommodation, clinics and executed viable projects for the improvement of personnel welfare and boost their morale.

Buratai added that the military would equally deploy modern scanning machines to check vehicular movements and enhance security on high ways.

The army chief called for closer media-military relation to check the spate of terrorists’ propaganda and campaign of calumny against the Nigerian Army.

God will not allow any other party to rule Lagos except APC – Oba of Lagos says

Oba of Lagos says

The Oba of Lagos, Rilwan Akiolu has said that God will not allow any other party apart from All Progressives Congress (APC) to take over the State in the forthcoming general election in 2019.

He made this remark yesterday in Lagos at the 11th Annual Hijrah Lecture and Commissioning of the new House of Assembly Mosque. He said the new Mosque was unique especially as it was built inside the Assembly complex where Bills are passed into law.

Oba Akiolu also argued that it was not enough to build Mosque but that the custodians of the Mosque should be properly taken care of. He also advised the custodians not to be involved in anything that would tarnish image of the religion.

Governor Ambode was represented by the Commissioner for Home Affairs, AbdulHakeem Abdulateef who is the Chief Imam of the House of Assembly Mosque. In his speech, the Chairman of the Muslim Community of the Assembly, Mr. Sikiru Osinowo thanked God Almighty for the completion of the mosque.

“We started the mosque project so that we could fulfil the purpose of our coming here. We have been Muslim Speakers, and God made it possible for us to build the new mosque during the time of the current Speaker, Rt. Hon. Mudashiru Obasa,” he said.

“FUNAAB student did not die over lack of oxygen” – FMC Abeokuta

The Federal Medical Centre, FMC Abeokuta, Ogun State, has said that it had enough oxygen to treat Olaniyi Ashimi, a 400 level soil science student of the Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta who died at the hospital early this month, Punch Metro reports.

It had been earlier reported that Ashimi died because the hospital lacked oxygen.

But in a statement by the Head, Public Relations and Information, Segun Orisajo, the hospital claimed that it did its best to save Ashimi’s life.

The statement read in part:

“Ashimi, the 26-year-old FUNAAB student was admitted to our Accident and Emergency department around 5pm on December 5, 2018 following a road crash about an hour earlier.

“He was one of 18 students involved in the crash rushed in by TRACE officers. They had varying degree of injuries. Seven of them had serious injuries and were admitted. Ashimi had multiple injuries that included a leg fracture, a head injury and a chest injury. Initially, he was stable. But approximately 24hours later, he suddenly became breathless.

“Clinically, he had features of bilateral lung contusion and haemothorax. A bilateral chest tube insertion was done immediately to drain the fluid in the pleural space.

He had a transient relief and had to be transferred to the ICU where he was intubated for assisted ventilation. By this time he was unconscious.

There was a need for a CT scan of the brain as well as ventilator assisted respiration. Our CT machine is faulty. UCH (University College Hospital, Ibadan) was contacted and it was agreed for him to be transferred to UCH. Oxygen availability was never an issue.

“This patient was on oxygen right from when he needed it. For the trip (to Ibadan), our own ambulance equipped with oxygen and additional cylinder of oxygen was used.”

The statement added,

“It must be stated that throughout his stay in FMC, his close relations, student leaders and most especially the management staff of FUNAAB were most supportive in their respective roles.”

The statement said the only FUNNAB student who died in the hospital was rushed in very late.

“The very unfortunate incident that was alluded to was a student who was lost over two years ago. He was an off-campus student who was brought at a very late stage of a severe illness.”

Tsunami strikes Indonesia killing at least 40 people, injuring 600 and destroying more than 400 homes

It’s been reported that at least 40 people lost their lives after a tsunami caused by a volcanic eruption hit beaches in Indonesia. The wave hit beaches around the Sunda Strait late on Saturday night, destroying 430 houses, nine hotels and 10 ships.

The country’s Disaster Mitigation Agency confirmed around 600 people have been injured. A further two people are believed to be missing. A tsunami alert was issued and people in low-lying areas fled to higher ground.

Indonesian officials believe the tsunami was caused by an eruption on nearby Krakatoa, which has been spewing volcanic ash into the air. The Australian Bureau of Meteorology has been monitoring the situation and has issued a red warning to airline pilots operating in the region that an ash cloud is spreading south west from the volcano to an altitude of 55,000 feet.

It is believed the tsunami was caused by an undersea landslide following the eruption of the Krakatoa volcano. The wave hit beaches on the Sunda Strait between the islands of Java and Sumatra.

Indonesian authorities said 430 houses have been badly damaged as well as nine hotels. The wave also badly damaged ten ships with dozens others needing repair. In September, at least 832 people were killed by a quake and tsunami that hit the city of Palu on the island of Sulawesi, which is just east of Borneo.

“God will not allow any other party to rule Lagos except APC” – Oba of Lagos

Oba of Lagos, Rilwan Akiolu has said that God will not allow any other party apart from All Progressives Congress (APC) to take over the State in the forthcoming general election in 2019.

The King made this remark yesterday in Lagos at the 11th Annual Hijrah Lecture and Commissioning of the new House of Assembly Mosque. He said the new Mosque was unique especially as it was built inside the Assembly complex where Bills are passed into law.

Oba Akiolu also argued that it was not enough to build Mosque but that the custodians of the Mosque should be properly taken care of. He also advised the custodians not to be involved in anything that would tarnish image of the religion.

Governor Ambode was represented by the Commissioner for Home Affairs, AbdulHakeem Abdulateef who is the Chief Imam of the House of Assembly Mosque. In his speech, the Chairman of the Muslim Community of the Assembly, Mr. Sikiru Osinowo thanked God Almighty for the completion of the mosque.

“We started the mosque project so that we could fulfil the purpose of our coming here. We have been Muslim Speakers, and God made it possible for us to build the new mosque during the time of the current Speaker, Rt. Hon. Mudashiru Obasa,” he said.
