A Female Corps member who was trapped for close to 8 hours during the Sunday Building collapse in Owerri, Imo State has been reported dead.
Identified as Ngozi Blessing Oformezie, she died at the University of Port Harcourt Traching Hospital in Rivers State, where she was rushed to for further medical observation, after her condition deteriorated.
This update was given by journalist, Chidiebube Okeoma. He also revealed that Ngozi’s kidney were affected as she was having urinary problem.
Ngozi Blessing Oformezie studied adult education from University of Nigeria, Nsukka. She was from Anambra state.
Chidiebube said about her death:
I still recall what she told me when I visited her in the hospital.
Groaning with pains she said “my name is Ngozi Blessing. I studied adult education from University of Nigeria, Nsukka. I am from Anambra state. My legs are killing me. Please don’t go. Jesus help me “.
My heart is heavy. I am saddened.
If it took eight hours for trapped people to be rescued in the state capital, what will happen when it happens in the villages?
Our country is in a mess.
Crying……
Jesus accept her soul.

In the video, Charly Boy says:
“My guy 2face, I am not happy with you. Since I couldn’t reach you directly, I decided to reach you through this medium.
Do you remember when you called on Nigerian youths to come out and protest? We obeyed because we thought you had a good intention to stand up to the injustices against the youths and masses of this country.
But, as you retreated into a hole since then, I am very pained. If a beckon of hope like you can be lily-livered when people need you more, what is your problem?
“2face are you happy with the way Nigeria is headed? Are you saying you have not heard about the resume or resign protest, why are you not involved?”
The Katsina State Police Command has through its spokesperson, DSP Gambo Isah, confirmed that the police rescued a new born baby girl alive, who was abandoned by her 16-year-old mother, identified as Hassan Tanimu from Jabiri, in Funtua local government area.
Isah stated that police detectives, acted on a tip-off and traced the abandoned baby to Tanimu – she claimed that she abandoned the baby because she had been drugged and raped by an unknown person and had gotten pregnant in the process.
The police said that investigation into the matter has begun.
Actress and movie producer, Bukola Adeeyo, who welcomed her daughter few weeks ago, and was alleged to have had the kid for popular Nollywood actor, Odunlade Adekola, has come out to shut down rumors that the married actor is the father of her baby.
In a statement she shared on her Instagram page, the actress debunks the allegations and categorically stated that the relationship between her and the actor, is nothing more than professional.
She says the kind of intimacy between them is that of a Boss and worker, not husband and wife… She shared on her page:
Alleged target of St Philip’s Catholic Church, Amakwa, Ozubulu massacre, Chief Aloysius Ikegwuonwu, (alias) Bishop of Umuofufe Ozubulu in Ekwusigo Local Government Area of Anambra State has urged traditional rulers in the state to invoke the spirits of the gods of the land to reveal the perpetrators of the dreadful act that claimed lives.
Ikegwuonwu spoke at the palace of Igwe Nnamdi Oruche, the traditional ruler of Ozubulu on Tuesday when Anambra State Council of Traditional Rulers paid the monarch a condolence visit.
He said since the traditional rulers were custodians of tradition in their various communities, they would pray that gods of the land should reveal the killers of the church worshippers and bring them to justice.
According to the Sun, while lamenting negative comments against him after the dastardly act, the Bishop asked:
“Has anybody previously brought any complaint against me for any reason. Anybody I offended should come out publicly and say it.”
Chief Ikegwuonwu said his Ozubulu people knew that he never made trouble with anybody and has been able to empower many youths and other folks in the town through the blessings of God.
He said God has blessed him enough to help others and that people should not be envious of that, urging those who were fond of making negative statements against him to desist.
He thanked the traditional rulers for their visit and show of concern and the fatherly role they have played since the attack of the worshippers. He thanked the Igwe and members of his community.

The beggee
A Nigerian Lady, with the Facebook name, Nek Key Billz (pictured above) has exposed a Nigerian Guy, Prince Karo (pictured below) who she says is not up to her type/age, and then tagged him as a miserable idiot.
The beggar
The “beggar” according to his profile says he is a Scout leader at The Scout Association of Nigeria, and he lives in Asaba.
Nek, who is the beggee, reiterated that Prince isn’t her type, and he should find his square root.. But then, this didn’t sit down well with some of her friends, who urged her to delete the post, and probably just warned him off privately, instead of exposing him like that.
She wrote as the caption of the screenshot: “This is exactly what I don’t like, so even if I want to have sex chat, it will be with this god forsaken, underaged miserable idiot….I have really suffered on Facebook ooo”
Some comments from her friends who didn’t agree with her:
On Wednesday, a four-year-old girl, Faridat Sulyman, was found dead in a shrine at the back of her parents’ apartment.
The victim was reportedly recovered in a pool of blood at about 8pm on Tuesday with a deep cut on her throat.
PUNCH Metro learnt that the girl and her two siblings – Fawaz, 11, and Roqeebat, 9 – had gone to a summer school in the neighbourhood at about 2pm while their mother went to a market to buy foodstuffs.
From the school, they reportedly went to an Arabic school. After closing at about 7pm, they went to observe prayer in a mosque and subsequently went to their mother’s friend’s shop around the school to wait for her.
Faridat, who was playing around the shop, disappeared shortly before the mother arrived to take them home.
They were said to be searching for her when the mother, Bunmi Sulyman, stumbled on her body at the shrine at the back of their apartment.
It was gathered that the parents and eight neighbours had been picked up by the police for interrogation.
Bunmi, who spoke with PUNCH Metro at the Sabo Police Station, said she suspected that an elderly woman she had earlier sighted killed her daughter.

She said, “The woman and a girl came around 8am with palm wine, salt, palm oil and a hen she wanted to slaughter at the shrine. I don’t know their names. After praying at the shrine, the woman called our neighbours’ children, but nobody answered her.
“It is one Ola Sheu and Kazeem, who normally help her to do the slaughtering. She called people from our compound, but nobody responded. She later left. I suspect she came back in the evening.
“After searching for my daughter for about an hour without success, I decided to observe Ishai (8pm) prayer. I wanted to perform ablution at the scene when I saw traces of blood. I initially thought it was the blood of the hen. I shone my torchlight on it and discovered that the blood was much.
“I traced the path of the blood and saw my daughter lying beside the shrine. Her throat was cut. They covered her mouth so that she would not scream. I raised the alarm and her father, who had been at home since 7pm, rushed out. We took her to different hospitals, but she was rejected. She was confirmed dead on arrival at the Yaba General Hospital.”
Bunmi said although the owner of the shrine was late, his child, Lekan, worshipped there every year, adding that he usually used dogs to perform rituals at the shrine.
“Faridat was very smart and intelligent. She walked around the neighbourhood alone, but I never thought she would end up this way. She just finished kindergarten 1 and was given a prize for coming first in her class,” she added.
The state Commissioner of Police, Fatai Owoseni, who confirmed the incident during a press briefing at the Police Officers’ Mess, Ikeja, on Tuesday, said he had visited “the Ogun shrine.”
He said, “We have seen the tool with which that child was killed. We have taken about 10 persons into custody for interrogation, including the parents of the child. We are not saying categorically that they killed the child, but the 10 persons are being questioned. A preliminary investigation shows that there is actually an element of conspiracy in the matter.”
According to a report from our source who pleaded anonymity –
The school authorities banned “cooking” in the school hostel, and according to our source, this act was dubious because the ban was revealed after they had paid for the hostel accommodation fees.
However, according to the memo the ban of cooking was essential in order to forestall fire outbreak.
An excerpt from the memo reads;
Under no circumstance should students cook in the hostels.This is essential to forestall fire outbreak and incovenience to other students
Contravention of this regulation may lead to suspension from the hostel.

‘So I professionally asked for help and it ended this way. This tech scene needs to wake up.’
In her initial message to the entrepreneur, she wrote:
‘I’m contacting as I thought you’d be someone who would potentially know some startup advisors/ mentors in London?’
During the conversation, he asked ‘How young are you?‘ and ‘Are you single?’ to which Lydia replied that she’s gay and then the businessman went on to ask: ‘So men don’t turn you on at all?‘
The man whose identity wasn’t revealed admitted he asked about her sexuality and defended his comments to Mashable, saying: ‘In the end, I didn’t say much else because I found out that it wasn’t appropriate to ask her even though she said she was open.’

Ewu is when you refuse to take your very sick child to the hospital because your pastor said you should not do so, yet that same pastor secretly runs to USA for medical attention any time he has an headache…. Kolo mental is when you see a poor beggar on the road and you refuse to give him 50 Naira out of the 5000 Naira in your pocket bcos it is your tithe money….. You are a zombie when you trek, dance and gallivant for 30 kilometers under the hot sun sweating and smelling like shit during your revival program, while your pastor is inside a full option, factory fitted air-conditioned state of the art SUV with his delectable wife slowing driving along the road…..

Ghanaian actor, Toosweet Annan, who was in the news months back for reportedly sending a video of himself masturbating to a lady in the USA, has disclosed that about ninety-nine percent of guys masturbate so it is not a bad act.
The father of one has boldly stated on Celebrity Ride With Zionfelix show that he sees nothing wrong with stimulation of the genitals with the hand for sexual pleasure.
Responding to a question the host of the show asked if he masturbates, He replied:
“What is wrong with masturbation?”.there is nothing wrong with masturbating”.
According to him, whoever denies the fact that nine-nine percent of men masturbate should be called a liar.
He questioned why people would have a problem with guys stroking their manhood for sexual pleasure when ladies do it without any criticism.
Toosweet Annan reacting to a claim by one Lilian Efya who resides in the USA that he sent her a video, which captures him masturbating, said he was not the one in the video.
The actor explained that the said masturbation video was edited to tarnish his image.
He explained that he stopped sleeping on multicolored bed sheet five years back which clearly shows that the lady took his video of five years old and added it to someone’s for a mischievous reason.
