Car carrying school children somersaults into bush after being hit by a commercial bus (Photos)

A car that was conveying school children to school was involved in an accident this morning after they were hit by a commercial bus driver who then drove off, leaving them at the scene. Gracefully, no lives were lost.

The accident is said to have occurred along Ozoro/Kwale Express in Delta state.

According to reports a white bus allegedly belonging to Agofure motors hit the Toyota Matrix conveying kids to school – the impact caused the driver of the private car to lose control and veer off the road into the bush where it somersaulted twice.

Thankfully, the kids, their mother, and the driver all came out alive from the car and were taken to a nearby hospital by first responders.

The Agofure bus that caused the accident is reported to have zoomed off from the scene of the accident immediately it happened and continued on its journey to Asaba.

“We have moved 10m Nigerians out of poverty” – Federal Government claims

The Federal government, through the minister of Budget and National Planning, Sen. Udoma Udo Udoma, has said it has moved 10.073million Nigerians from poverty to prosperity.

He made the claim on Tuesday while speaking on arrangements for the 24th Nigerian Economic Summit (NES#24) held at the conference room of the ministry in Abuja.

He stated that the FG had taken steps to move over 10 million Nigerians from poverty to prosperity as one of the key priorities of the Economic Recovery and Growth Plan (ERGP) by investing in the people.

According to him, the government had provided for 8.96million school children under the Home Grown School Feeding Programme; over 297,000 poor and vulnerable Nigerians supported with cash transfer of N5,000.

It has also successfully disbursed more than 308,000 loans of N50,000 and above under the Government Enterprise and Empowerment Programme (GEEP) and 200,000 Young Unemployed Graduates Empowered through the N-Power scheme, while over 308,000 had been selected for consideration for the second batch.

“We have taken steps towards moving our people from Poverty to prosperity. Indeed, one of the key priorities of the ERGP is investing in our people. That objective has been behind many government programmes, particularly the social investment programme.

Under this programme, we have empowered millions of Nigerian youths, women and children. To combat hunger and achieve food security, we have raised capital provisions for agriculture from N8.8billion in 2015 to N149.2billion in the 2018 budget.

Over N82billion has been disbursed as credit to more than 350,000 farmers under the Anchor Borrowers’ programme. 14 moribund fertilizer blending plants have been revitalized through the Presidential Fertilizer Initiative (PFI), with a total capacity of 2.3million metric tons of NPK fertilizer.

Nigeria’s milled rice production has increased by about 60% and since 2016 eight new rice mills have been brought into production,’’ he added.

Nigerian senator, Joshua Dariye submits APC nomination form from prison

Senator Joshua Dariye who currently is serving a 14-year jail term over financial misdeeds while serving as Plateau governor, has picked his All Progressives Congress (APC) nomination form to contest next year’s election.

“Yes, Sen. Dariye has picked a nomination form to seek a third term. It is true. He is among those jostling for the APC ticket in Plateau Central,” Mr Chindo Dafat, APC Publicity Secretary in Plateau, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), on Tuesday in Jos.

Dafat said that Dariye has filled the form and submitted to the party. “His (Dariye)’s ward secretary came and signed the form on his behalf. It has been filled and his supporters are already campaigning ahead of the party primary election,” he said.

Joshua Dariye submits

According to him, Dariye will battle with three others Zakari Dimka, Sam Piwuna and Manji Pompori for the APC ticket. The party official said that Dariye was “still very popular and relevant in Plateau Central in spite of his current ordeals”, adding that the former governor “can win the primary elections from the prison”. He said that Dariye had appealed his conviction and could have it upturned “because we are praying for him”.

“Aside possible success in the appeal, we are also praying for a state pardon. That is another possibility. “Dariye is very important to our party, unfortunately, this happened to him. It is not that we cannot win elections without him; we can win without him, but he has done a lot and is well loved by his people. “Somebody could be in the hospital or prison and pick a nomination from there. We have no right to deny anyone a nomination form.

Even INEC cannot stop Dariye from contesting the 2019 elections. “There is no law that stops him from buying the form. Whoever comes for the nomination form can get it. I see it as a constitutional matter. Only the court can disqualify him.

“If Dariye wins elections from prison, he will not be the first Nigerian to do that. Iyiola Omisore, from Osun, once won a senate seat while in prison,’’ Dafat pointed out But the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has described the development as “shocking, strange and embarrassing’’. “It is shocking that a convict serving a 14-year jail term will be given a nomination form to contest an election.

This is just ridiculous,’’ Mr Ben Shignugul, PDP Vice Chairman (Plateau Central), told NAN. “The nomination form has a portion which requests aspirants to state whether they were once convicted; I wonder what information Dariye provided in that column.

“He (Dariye) is our illustrious son and we sympathise with him. We expect him to be sober and reflect on what has happened to him, instead of allowing himself to be dragged around by desperate politicians,’’ he said.

Shignugul said that the Plateau PDP executive council, led by its chairman, Damishi Sango, recently visited Dariye in Kuje prisons and prayed for him. “We still pray that he will serve out his 14-year jail term and come out in good health. “Dariye should equally be praying, instead of attracting unnecessary attention to himself,’’ Shignugul said. The PDP official, however, said that the party was not afraid of facing Dariye, or any other APC candidate, in the 2019 general elections.

“Dariye cannot be a threat to us because people in the zone are already fed up with him after eight years as governor and two terms in the senate,’’ Shignugul claimed. But, section 107 sub-section 1 (d) of the Nigeria Constitution 1999 as amended, states that no person shall be qualified for election if, within a period of less than 10 years before the date of election, he has been convicted and sentenced for an offence involving dishonesty. It also states that anyone that has been found guilty of contravening the code of conduct shall not be allowed to contest election.

“They were drinking the blood of Jesus” – Pastor who gave members JIK bleach to drink defends his action

A controversial South African pastor, who gave his church members JIK bleach to drink during his service last week, has spoken out to defend his action.

Pastor Ruffus Phala, of Ark Centre Ministry in Makgodu Village, Limpopo, South Africa told Daily Sun he could turn the Jik into the blood of Jesus – he said what his members were drinking wasn’t Jik but Jesus Christ’s blood.

He said:

Yes, it was Jik before I made the declaration. But after I declared it to be the blood of Jesus Christ it means it’s no longer Jik so it won’t harm anyone who consumes it.

He said what he did was similar to what happened in the Bible, where Jesus gave his servants’ wine to drink but had said to them “this is my blood“.

Limpopo police spokesman Colonel Moatshe Ngoepe said they had not received any complaints. He urged the affected congregants to come forward and open a case so cops could investigate.

Thoko Mkhwanazi-Xaluva, chairwoman of the Commission for the Promotion and Protection of the Rights of Cultural‚ Religious and Linguistic Communities, told Daily Sun they condemned such acts in the strongest possible terms. She said this was an act of people seeking popularity, adding:

A true man of God will not do such.

We’ll be meeting with the religious umbrellas on Thursday to have a conversation about such acts. We want them to stand up and say, ‘Not in our God’s name’.

The controversial prophet is the same one who made headlines after he gave his congregation Dettol to drink

Linda Ikeji turns 38 two days after childbirth; Shares more photos from her delivery

Media mogul, Linda Ikeji has been in the hearts of so many over the past two days after she announced the birth of her first child, Baby J on the 17th of September, 2018.

Linda Ikeji turns

She’s filled with ecstasy as two days after she gave birth, she turned a new age – according to her, she’d prayed to God to make her see her first child and also become a wife before this age, gracefully, one of her prayer requests was answered.

Sharing lovely new photos from her delivery, the celebrity blogger wrote,

Today September 19th, I turn 38 and I can say without any doubt that 2018 has been the best year of my life so far! I became a mum. Something that I always wanted and wondered when it will happen for me.
.
On my 37th birthday last year, I went down on my knees and told God, you’ve blessed me beyond what I thought was possible but there’s something I want more than anything else; to be a wife and a mum before my next birthday. We will talk about the wife one later…but the one that was more important, the one my heart desired the most, he gave to me. My own child. Two days before my next birthday. Dear Lord in heaven, thank you. I don’t know what I did, or what I have done to make you continually bless me and answer all my prayers.
.
Above pic shows me trying to catch a glimpse of my son seconds after he was born and placed in my arms. It took me the whole of two minutes to push him out. I recorded it and I’ve watched the video over and over again in wonder. I thought I would be in the labour room for hours especially because of my age and how people say the older you get, the harder it is to give birth but my son was placed in my arms exactly 2mins 19secs after I began to push. .
.
I saw many comments on here of people praying I deliver like the Hebrew women and your prayers were answered. My delivery went so well. I can’t wait to go through this journey of pregnancy and child birth again. By far the most amazing experience of my life. And the guys at Emory University Hospital in Atlanta are the best. . I’ll recommend them. .
.
Thank you guys for all the birthday wishes. God bless you and yours and I hope everything you ask God for, He gives to you. May blessings never cease in your life. Amen. Kisses.
.
By the way, I did something crazily crazy for my baby boy. You will hear about it soon!. My mum has been giving me and my dad bad eyes since. Hahaha

Head of states, President Muhammadu Buhari has praised Nigerians for kicking ‘selfish leaders’ out of the Nigerian government.

President Buhari praises

He said,

“Nigeria kicked the corrupt and selfish leaders out of the Federal Government in 2015 and by the grace of God, the voters will continue to kick them out of leadership positions until we permanently consign their corrupt government style into the history books.

As we can see, our party has no tolerance for corruption. We will continue to ensure inclusiveness and economic diversification. Nigeria must be free of corrupt and selfish leaders. The children of all Nigerians will get quality infrastructure, education, healthcare and Job opportunities”.

Speaking further, the president urged the residents of the state to come out in their numbers to ensure that the APC continues to rule the state.

He said,

Cristiano Ronaldo receives world’s first copy of FIFA’19 with himself on the cover (Photo)

The ‘FIFA 19 cover star’, Cristiano Ronaldo has received the world’s first copy of the game which isn’t due for release until Friday next week, September 28, 2018.

The Juventus forward shared a picture of himself and son, Cristiano Ronaldo Junior, on his IG page, posing with a PlayStation 4 copy of the game, which arrived in a special edition with the tag line ‘champions rise’ which ties in with the game’s new Champions League license.

Ronaldo scored his first Serie A goals for the club over the weekend and probably has a few cheeky games of Ultimate Team or FIFA 19’s new Kick off party modes with his son to celebrate.

While Ronaldo appears proudly on the front cover in full Juventus kit, his £99million move to Italy must have caused EA Sports a few issues.

Whilst changing the front cover should have been simple enough, there were worries that the transfer could have ruined Journey Mode.

Italian Catholic priest reportedly kidnapped in Niger Republic

One Father Pierluigi Maccalli, an Italian Catholic Priest who works as a Missionary in Niger Republic has been kidnapped, a Vatican news agency reported today.

The priest of the Society of African Missions (SMA) was abducted overnight, Agenzia Fides reported, quoting another Catholic priest based in Niger, Father Mauro Armanino.

Maccalli organised meetings against local practices like circumcision and female genital mutilation, and this “may be one of the reasons for the kidnapping, according to local sources” Fides said.

A Niger government spokesman, Abdourahamane Zakaria, confirmed the kidnapping of an Italian near the border with Burkina Faso. The Niger Defence Ministry added that the abductee was a priest.

Italian Catholic priest kidnapped

Maccalli was based in the Bomoanga parish in the Niamey diocese, Fides said. His mission was in the Gourmance area near the Burkina Faso border, about 125 kilometres from Niamey, it added.

The Italian embassy in Niger asked local authorities to give top priority to the case and to avoid “initiatives that may put at risk Father Maccalli,’’ the Italian Foreign Ministry said in a statement.

In a second report, Fides said it heard from unnamed SMA sources that the priest was “probably taken across the border’’ to Burkina Faso where jihadist groups have set up bases.

Maccalli’s brother Walter, also a missionary priest, told ANSA: “We wish with all our heart that everything will work out for the best. In some cases all you can do is pray and wait with hope“.

There are several Islamist groups in Niger’s border area with Mali and Burkina Faso, some of whom have sworn allegiance to the Islamic State and al-Qaeda.
