Kenyan woman arrested 6 years after she confessed to killing her husband’s side chick during live radio interview

Police on Thursday, arrested a woman who confessed to killing her husbands’ lover through a call to one of the radio stations six years ago.

According to Director of Criminal Investigations (DCI) George Kinoti, the suspect, Linda Namukuchu Urandu was arrested in Kasarani area, Nairobi.

Also in police custody is her former husband, Benson Muthine and his current wife Margaret Tata.

Linda will be detained in police custody for 10 days for further questioning to verify her claims.
However, Kinoti appeals to any person who may have lost a female relative to report to the central police station.

The Nairobi woman sent chills down people’s spines when she recounted on live radio how she killed her hubby’s side chick.

It all started when famous Radio Jambo duo Gidi and Ghost called the lady up and asked her to narrate her side chick ordeal.

In the chilling video, the unnamed woman was heard explaining how she found out her hubby was stepping out on her prompting her to nip the menace in the bud.

“I went through his phone one day as he was in the bathroom and I noticed he had sent KSh 50, 000 to another woman. On top of that, he told the lady to enjoy herself. I saw other texts the two sent each other and I knew that was the other woman,” she said.

The lady stated one day her hubby lied he was going for a business trip to Kisumu. This turned out to be a lie. Her husband was out in Mombasa having the time of his life with his other woman.

“I had the woman’s number saved in my phone. My husband went to Mombasa, enjoyed himself then came back home. The things he bought sold him out as none of those stuff were sold along the road on your way out of Kisumu. While unpacking the shopping, I came across a bunch of receipts which showed he bought a dress for his other woman in Mombasa. I went the bedroom and threw the receipts on his face. He immediately knew something was wrong and started apologising for his infidelity. I said it was okay, he was a man and he could do what he wanted,” she explained.

What left people with their hands over their mouths was the wife’s decision to get a guy she knew to hit on the husband’s mistress.

“One day I told my male friend to take the lady to a lodging I had already paid for. The woman was very drunk so I told the man to leave the room and allow me to go in. I paid the receptionist a handsome amount to keep her mouth shut and disable the CCTV cameras,” she said.

The lady later creeped into the room where her hubby’s sidepiece was and strangled her.

Straight people disgust me – Nigerian lady says

Nigerian lady says

A Nigerian lady who took a swipe at straight people, has stated that criminalizing homosexuality will not make them cease to exist.

Nigerian lady says

According to the Nigerian lady, her compatriots will forgive a practicing pedophile before they accept a gay person. She added that this shows how pathetic Nigerians are on the inside. Read her tweets below;

Notice how when men are talking about gay people they always only address gay men having sex. Which is funny because not all gay men have anal sex and a large percentage of straight men have had anal sex with their girlfriends, basically it’s toxic masculinity and misogyny

Dear Nigerians, criminalizing homosexuality isn’t going to make them cease to exist, your father is gay, your mother, your sister, your father, your best friend, your uncle, your aunt, your neighbor… They’re everywhere. But stay being delusional. Nigerian men and homophobic women deserve each other tbh

Nigerians will forgive a practising pedophile before they accept a gay person and this shows just how pathetic they really are on the inside. Disgusting people with fake morals. How do homophobic people sleep at night??? Oh they don’t, they stay up thinking about gay sex and two men kissing.

Straight people disgust me.

Mum Finally Stops Breastfeeding Daughter At The Age Of Nine

A Mother has revealed she will miss breastfeeding her daughter after she finally weaned at the age of nine.

Sharon Spink, 50, has been breastfeeding daughter Charlotte for the past nine years and insists it is completely normal and has cemented a lifelong bond between them.

Sharon, from Sherburn-in-Elmet, North Yorkshire, said despite doing it for almost a decade she is happy the schoolgirl made her own decision to stop two months ago.

The quinquagenarian, who supports natural term weaning, claims her daughter is healthy and rarely gets ill thanks to the beneficial properties of ‘mummy milk’.

And despite facing a backlash from critics who have accused her of child abuse, Sharon wants to break down the stigma around breastfeeding older children – believing there are many mums out there doing it.

Sharon said:

‘When I came to have Charlotte, I had decided on natural term weaning. Gang of trans women beat man up after ‘minor provocation’ on night out ‘It’s nice for the child to be in control of when they want to wean, rather than forcing the issue.

I have no plan to quit teaching for acting – Actor, Hafiz Oyetoro

Popular Nollywood actor, Afeez Oyetoro, aka Saka, best known for his hilarious movie roles has said he has no plans to quit teaching anytime soon.

Unknown to many of his fans, Saka is a committed academic who teaches drama at the Adeniran Ogunsanya College of Education, Ijanikin in Lagos State.

Although he was aware that most people wished that he would give up one for the other, the actor, who only just finished his tenure as the Head of the Department of Theatre Arts at the institution, said, in an interview with Punch Nigeria, that he had no plan to quit teaching for a full-blown career in film acting.

He said;

“There is little or no difference between teaching and acting. I enjoy doing both. When you teach in the classroom, you are officially disseminating information.

It is almost the same thing as what an actor does on stage or in a film. An actor entertains and at the same time, passes a message to his audience.

“My work as a teacher of theatre arts enhances my practical methodology. When I go outside the classroom to act in a movie or on stage, I gain additional experience and bring back it to the classroom. Such experience enhances my teaching methodology.”

Herbalist And Hospital Attendant Steal Baby’s Placenta In Kwara

A herbalist, identified as Salaudeen Ibrahim and a female hospital attendant, Fatima Suleiman have been arrested for stealing a new born baby’s placenta in Kwara state.

Hospital Attendant  Steal Baby’s Placenta

According to TheNation, the state Police Commissioner, Kofowora Bolaji, said the attendant sold the babies placenta after the doctor gave it to her.

During an interview with newsmen, the herbalist Ibrahim said:

“I read Islamic Studies from the Al-Hikmah University, Ilorin. I graduated in 2016. A month ago, she came to me to ask if baby placenta can be used for ritual purposes and I answered in the affirmative.

And that was the last thing I discussed with her. And she left. Because she is an attendant in a hospital she told me that some people would leave their baby placentas for them to throw away.

Later, I had even forgotten and she came with one about five days ago. She dropped the placenta, after her departure something told me to call her to come and take it away, and that I would not do the ritual.

I called her to come and pick it away she refused to, not until she called me that the incident had been reported at the police station. Not to be implicated, I packed the placenta and threw into a nearby river. I thought, with that, I would get myself out of trouble but here am I.”

Police Discover Mass Grave With 200 Bodies In Ethiopia

Police in Ethiopia have discovered a mass grave with 200 bodies near the border between the Somali and Oromia regions of the country.

Igbo monarchs set to end the ‘Osu caste system’ in December

Major Igbo traditional rulers have set December 28, 2018 to abolish the Osu caste system.

The Osu, in Igbo tradition, are usually discriminated against for no fault of their own, because they are said to be dedicated to deities. For years, people have been calling for an end to this barbaric practice.

While some regions in the South-East have succeeded in abolishing the Osu caste system, it is still alive and well in a lot of Igbo communities. But this is about to change.

According to a statement on Tuesday, there will be an event marking the abolition of the Osu caste system in Igbo land. The event will take place on December 28 at the Nri Palace in Anambra State.

The statement quoted the Regent of the ancient Nri Kingdom, Prince Ikenna Onyesoh, as saying it would be “spiritually suicidal” for anyone to continue with the obnoxious Osu practice after it had been abolished.

He said,

Come December 28, 2018, more stringent spiritual implications will be pronounced from Ikpo Eze-Nri against such devaluation of mankind, after an extensive spiritual abrogation exercise.

The statement also quoted the Eri traditional rulers as saying that they were set for the abolition.

The Chairman of Eri Dynasty Traditional Rulers Forum, Eze Nkeli Nzekwe Kelly, said, according to the statement.

The whole world needs to witness what is about to happen in our land on December 28, 2018 because such a thing has never happened before.

The last time in history anything close to this happened was 200 years ago. And mark my words, after these abolition and atonement exercises, anybody who continues to uphold these practices will have themselves to blame.

It’s time to end these once and for all and unite our people for the new era. It’s time for our estranged brothers and sisters who were sold into slavery to return home. We are more than ready to atone for the sins of our forefathers and reunite with our kits and kins in America, Europe, the Islands, and beyond. It’s time.

69-year-old Man wants to legally reduce age to boost dating chances

A pensioner has begun a legal battle to reduce age and be recognized as being 20 years younger than his actual age so he can go back to work and achieve greater success with women on Tinder.

Emile Ratelband, 69, argues that if transgender people are allowed to change sex, he should be allowed to change his date of birth because doctors said he has the body of a 45-year-old, UK Telegraph reports.

The entrepreneur and self-help guru is suing his local authority after they refused the amend his age on official documents.

Mr Ratelband’s case has now gone to a court in the city of Arnhmen in the eastern Dutch province of Gelderland.

The case has caused controversy in his homeland, with the Dutch edition of Vice, a news website, asking, “Is Emile Ratelband disturbed or accidentally extremely woke?”

Mr Ratelband was born on 11th March 1949, but says he feels at least 20 years younger and wants to change his birth date to 11th March 1969.

Mr Ratelband said:

“I have done a check-up and what does it show? My biological age is 45 years.

“When I’m 69, I am limited. If I’m 49, then I can buy a new house, drive a different car. I can take up more work.

“When I’m on Tinder and it say I’m 69, I don’t get an answer. When I’m 49, with the face I have, I will be in a luxurious position.

“Transgenders can now have their gender changed on their birth certificate, and in the same spirit there should be room for an age change.”
