Sudden Deaths: Here are 4 ways sex can kill you.

According to several studies conducted by leading doctors, medical and experts deaths during consensual sex account for approximately 0.6% of all sudden deaths.

Here are a few ways this can happen.

1. Cardiac Arrest

A study conducted by a leading American medical journal has revealed that each additional hour of sexual activity per week resulted in an increased risk of 2-3 myocardial infarctions (heart attacks) and one sudden cardiac death per 10,000 person.

2. Haemorrhage
Experts say that indulging in sexual intercourse can trigger a subarachnoid haemorrhage i.e. is bleeding into the subarachnoid space—the area between the arachnoid membrane and the pia mater surrounding the brain via the Valsalva maneuver.

The Valsalva maneuver is performed by moderately forceful attempted exhalation against a closed airway, usually done by closing one’s mouth, pinching one’s nose shut while pressing out as if blowing up a balloon.

3. Infidelity
A study also found that the “deceased is usually married; he is not with a spouse and in unfamiliar surroundings,” and death usually occurs after “a big meal with alcohol.” So, men who were unfaithful were significantly more likely than those who were faithful to experience severe or fatal cardiac events during sex. A related study seemed to support the death during extramarital sex theory. Fourteen of the 20 cases of coital death, happened during an affair. “Dying in the saddle” is another popular euphemism for death during sex.

4. Sex Drugs
Viagra use has been linked to sudden cardiovascular death during sexual activity among elderly or otherwise infirm men. Researchers also say that prescription or recreational drugs, such as cocaine can also possibly contribute to unexpected deaths during consensual sex.

Photos: Lagos CEO ‘Mr Stainless’ who duped his ex-girlfriends, others arrested

Mr Stainless

A report making rounds online claims that a 34 year old man, Olaogun Tunde has been arrested after several successful attempts of duping his victims.

Read Below the report as shared by NationalHelm.

According to his buddies, he is Mr. Stainless, The CEO, but, Olaogun Tunde, is a complete fraud. Everything about him is fraud. Olaogun, 34, a microbiologist, a dismissed civil servant, was two weeks ago arrested by the officials of Rapid Response Squad. The officers acted on phone report to RRS Control Room of a fraud by one Mr Kelvin Oyenuga over the supply of 25 units of HP laptop to the Lagos State Ministry of Works, Alausa, through Olaogun Tunde.

Olaogun, through connections was linked up with Oyenuga for the supply of 25 laptops amounting to N4, 625,000:00. In making a N2.5m payment before delivery, Olaogun initiated a fake online transfer from a Keystone Bank to Oyenuga’s GTB account. He immediately showed a fake debit alert on his phone to Oyenuga. On delivery, the same day, he issued another dud cheque of N2.125m.

For more than two months, Olaogun employed one trick or the other to buy time for himself while he offered to a Lagos Island computer dealer, the 25 laptops he bought from Oyenuga at N150,000:00 each, a N35,000:00 short of the initial buying price.

To settle the case Oyenuga, Olaogun had requested RRS officers follow him to Lagos Island to retrieve the 25 laptops from the buyer. According to him, “I had an understanding with him. We retrieve the laptops. Once my LPO is ready, I would pay off the buyer”.

By the second day of investigation into the case, three fresh cases of fraud initiated by Olaogun Tunde had surfaced. The complaints were microfinance banks, who the suspect had used a Fake Bank Statements to secure loans amounting to N3.7m.

Coincidentally, a day later, two ex-girlfriends of Olaogun were at RRS’s headquarters. They alleged that the suspect took N750,000:00 in October, 2016 and N500,000:00 in April 2017 from them to help them get a Toyota Matrix and a Nigerian used car. And, as typical of him, Olaogun had regaled them with endless stories – no car, no money.

His latest girlfriend whose red Toyota Corolla he borrowed for his fraudulent transactions, Dunni Anifowoshe, 29, disclosed that the suspect was dismissed from the Lagos State Ministry of Environment, Alausa, in 2015.

Olaogun, while explaining the circumstance said he used the name of his Ministry to facilitate the procurement of vehicles at Affordable Cars without the knowledge of the State Government. When he couldn’t pay for the cars, it became a crisis that cost him his job.

Before Olaogun Tunde case was transferred to the State CID, Panti, Yaba, two other microfinance banks had filed in fresh petition of N1.5 million and N4 million respectively against him.

Actress Funke Adesiyan slams celebrities who didn’t help with the burial arrangements of late Moji Olaiya

Actress Funke Adesiyan slams celebrities

Actress, Funke Adesiyan is not happy with some Nigerian Celebrities who didn’t lend a helping hand towards the arrangements of Moji Olaiya’s Burial in Nigeria.

Read Below what she wrote on Her Instagram Page;

“Life is funny. People are really not worth the trouble. The essence of being part of an association, group et al is so you can be there for one another in matters related to you all.

Its really a shame that many artistes came on social media, flooded Moji Olaiya’s house shedding tears and when it boils down to extending a helping hand, many chickened out. Artistes were billed 100k each to bring Moji’s body down. If 50 of us contributes 100k, we have 5million which is about $15k (medical rate) Many didn’t contribute a penny.

All they know how to do is flaunt wealth that they dont have on social media. The house you live in is being paid for by others, the car you drive na dash, the supposed business you own, you are not making a dime from. My sister/brother, quit living large and forming rich on other people largesse. Forming oga madam on top nothing! You only have right to flaunt your own sweat. If not, siddon Jeje and make less noise please! We don’t need to turn to beggers to help one another. We all could be one another’s helper. If you are Moji’s friend/colleague and you didn’t contribute a dime towards helping to move her down, you should take her picture down!

Thank you to the very few artistes, socialites, friends who contributed to save the day. May God bless you all.”

“Buhari will win again if he contests for president” — Garba Shehu says

Garba Shehu says

Garba Shehu, the Snior Special Assistant to President Buhari on Tuesday has said that President Buhari will win the Presidential Election if he contests again.

Speaking to state house correspondents during a press briefing in Abuja to mark the 2nd year anniversary of this government, Garba said President Buhari has done well and that no one can judge this administration based on the two years it has spent in office. He said:

“You cannot write the report card of this administration in two years. The mandate is four years and it is too early in the day. You don’t reach definite term in the mid-term. We will have a lot more to fulfill. If anybody tells you APC has failed, tell them it’s too early in the day, we still have two years, it’s a four year term”.

Also lending his voice, Special Adviser to President Buhari on media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, said:

“People can always express their opinions, there is liberty on that but you don’t have a scientific survey that has given you the percentage of people that believed that the APC has failed. The second point is that, when a government via a party is voted into office, it is voted for a four year term under our own democratic arrangement.

When you have spent two years which is like a midterm, the first half of a game, you don’t then determined that it has succeeded or it has failed. No. You can be accused of being atomistic using a small part to determine the whole. You can’t write the report card of this administration when it is just hitting the half way mark, that will not be fair. This administration will take Nigeria far beyond how it met it. So if anybody says APC has failed just tell them is too early in the day because is a four year-term and this is just two years. You don’t reach definitive conclusions in two years.”

Reacting to rumors of a coup attempt and the statement released by the Chief of Army Staff warning soldiers to steer clear from politics, Adesina said:

“What the Chief of Army Staff said was a routine warning that goes to military officers, don’t hobnob with politicians and the army has explained the position. Let’s take that position and not stretch it beyond what the military has said because they are the ones that can give us the definitive position and they have spoken on it.’’

James Ibori awarded N400 (£1) in damages over unlawful detention in London

James Ibori awarded N400

Former Delta state governor, James Ibori, has been a whooping sum of £1 (N400) by a High court over his claims he was unlawfully detained by Home Secretary Amber Rudd.

Ruling on Monday, Justice Cheema-Grubb admitted that he was unlawfully held for one day, 18 hours and 10 minutes between December 20 and 21 last year but ruled that James Ibori, who had claimed £4,000 in damages for breaches of his human rights, is only entitled to a nominal £1 of the sum.

According to her, she said the Home Secretary “failed to have regard to her limits to detain” as attempts were made to claw back millions from the fraudster.

Rejecting Ibori’s bid for thousands in compensation, the judge ruled: ‘There is no compensatory loss to Mr. Ibori and I fix nominal damages at £1.’

Ibori who pleaded guilty to 10 serious criminal charges over the appropriation of massive amounts of public funds during his two terms as governor of Delta State was jailed for 13 years in 2012.

He was released from prison in December 2016 after a court order. He served 4 years out of the 13 years he was sentenced to.

Beautiful Nigerian Lady returns N860,000 mistakenly transferred to her account

In this recession the country is in, it is quite difficult to see someone who’d return quite a large amount back that was mistakenly sent to into their account.

Below is a story of a young lady who returned N860,000 that was mistakenly transferred to her account. She’s been identified as Zinny Adajiugo Ife Nkili. Zinny was minding her business when she claimed she received a SMS Bank Alert of N860,000.. The caller called her, and she refunded the money.

See what she wrote below:

So yesterday someone mistakenly send 860k to my account.. When I saw that I know it was wrong transfer..so I waited for d owner to call, some minutes later he called and was shivering…I told him to relax that his money is in good hand?.. he send an account number so I transferred 500k bcos that’s my daily limit and it cannot be exceeded, so this morning I send him d remaining balance..

Only very few people can actually be honest enough to acknowledge an error in transfer and do the needful by sending the money back to the sender.

But with d things I read online everyday majority of Nigerians are opportunists and do not fall into the category of honest people… How can some people go to bed to sleep knowing d kind of thing they did to their fellow human being..

This kind of insensitive na wao, nobody is above mistake, mistake hv no master and no one is perfect…don’t make them pay for their carelessness. I hv a lot of problems I could hv solve with this money but I’m not a thief… I remembered when growing up, U return what does not belong to u else d canning no go get part 2 from my mum….and agin i don’t want to mess up my glorious future.. So in this present economy, pls check and re-check before sending or transferring money. People are desperate now couple with the hardship…

OAP Freeze Defends Eva’s Long Engagement

OAP Freeze Defends Eva

On Air Personality, Freeze has come out to defend Nigerian Rapper, Eva and her fiancee Caesar following their 15-months engagement trending on social media.

He said that the pressure put on them is copious, so they should be left alone and should of course take things slow.. as they can get married anytime they wish to.

He also shared his insight on marriage and said that Marriage is a beautiful thing, but it’s not a prerequisite for happiness.

Although, there were rumors that the couple had broken up but Eva debunked the rumors in a video she shared on Instagram.. Where she revealed Caesar proposed to her just 1 month after they started dating.. So technically, they’ve been engaged for 15 months, and they’ve been dating for 16.

He said:

In my opinion, the pressure put on this couple by the public to get married is getting too much. I saw some dreadfully nasty comments on a blog, about Eva’s engagement and the first thing that came to my mind was; how much better is the life of the person typing this hateful comment? The commenter is probably unemployed, armed with a 7k Techno or Gionee phone, with 5MB free data from the last N100 recharge and saddled with the urgent need for a jerk-off into cyberspace.

The poverty in Nigeria hasn’t helped either, as it has done all it can, to create a fertile environment, for the proliferation of the proletariat mindset, as citizens choose to use the ‘small’ data on their cheap phones, to insult other people and comment on blogs, instead of seeking the readily available knowledge and information, via the same medium.

The #FreeTheSheeple movement is here to break the invisible chains put upon us by people, who are oftentimes worse off that we are, but because they have ‘managed’ to get, or to remain married, believe they are judge and jury over the rest of us.

Marriage is a beautiful thing, but it’s not a prerequisite for happiness, from my personal experience, I became happier when my first marriage ended, probably because it was never meant to be in the first place and might have been as a consequence of societal pressure.

Eva and Caesar, take your time, there is no rush, all in God’s speed, they say.

ISIS Claims Responsibility for Manchester Arena Concert Attack That Killed Over 22 People

isis claims responsibility, Manchester Arena Concert Attack

Terrorist Group, ISIS has just claimed full responsibility for the deadly terrorist attack that took place in London yesterday.

The Independent UK reported that, The terrorist group released statements in several languages through its central media body praising the atrocity, claiming more than 100 “crusaders” were killed or wounded at the “shameless” concert.

The English version of the statement says:

“With Allah’s grace and support, a soldier of the Khilafah [caliphate] managed to place explosive devices in the midst of the gatherings of the crusaders in the British city of Manchester,”

Isis said the attack aimed to terrorize “infidels…in response to their transgressions against the lands of the Muslims”.

According to Guardian UK, witnesses narrated how the tragedy happened: Ariana Grande concluded her performance and just as the house lights came on in the 21,000-capacity hall, a loud bang was heard, causing panic and then a stampede as young people fled for their lives.

“A huge bomb-like bang went off that hugely panicked everyone and we were all trying to flee the arena,” said one of the concertgoers Majid Khan. “It was one bang and essentially everyone from the other side of the arena where the bang was heard from suddenly came running towards us as they were trying to exit.”

Another concertgoer, 17-year-old Oliver Jones, who went with his 19-year-old sister said: “The bang echoed around the foyer of the arena and people started to run.”

Another, Hannah Dane, said it was “quite a loud explosion heard from inside the Manchester arena and it shook, then everyone screamed and tried to get out”.

From the video shared on social media, people are seen screaming and trying to flee at the same time, and Guardian UK adds that this may have added to the high number of injured people.

Shortly after the incident, the police and ambulances arrived the scene. The police is currently treating the case as a “possible terror” incident.

No suspect had been named as at press time, and relatives took to Twitter to post photos of their loved one who were yet to be accounted for.

Two gay partners caught, Flogged publicly 85 times each (photos)

two gay partners caught

Two gay men, age 20 and 23 were flogged 85 times in the Indonesian province of Aceh after being caught having sex.

The men stood on stage in white gowns praying while a team of hooded men lashed their backs with a cane. It is the first time gay men have been caned under Sharia law in the province. The punishment was delivered outside a mosque in the provincial capital of Banda Aceh.

According to Rebecca Henschke, BBC News Reporter, Banda Aceh in Indonesia:

I met one of the young men in jail a day before the caning, the first journalist to speak to him. He was terrified and his whole body was shaking. He was thin, pale and had a red rash on his skin.

Inmates surrounded us with intimidating glares as we tried to talk. I thought we were going to be speaking in a private room, but he was not granted that.

Before neighbourhood vigilantes broke down the door to his rented room, he was in his final years of a medical degree – his plan was to be a doctor. Now we are told the university has kicked him out.

Videos of the raid that caught him and his partner having sex have been widely shared online. In the mobile phone footage they are both naked, pleading for help.

“I just want the caning to be over and to go back to my family, I have been deeply depressed. I am trying to pull myself out of a deep black hole,” he said.

two gay partners caught

A large crowd of observers cheered as the caning took place. “Let this be a lesson to you,” one of the men watching cried out. “Do it harder,” another man yelled.

It is the first time gay men have been caned under Sharia law in the province.

Although, gay is legal in Indonesia except for the state (Banda Aceh) where Islamic laws are still being practiced.

Governor Ambode cancels N844b Lagos 4th Mainland Bridge

Lagos 4th Mainland Bridge

Lagos State Governor, Akinwunmi Ambode has terminated a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with a consortium of firms to build the Lagos 4th Mainland Bridge which costs a whooping N844 Billion!

The MoU for the 36 km bridge, which two past administrations had promised to do, was signed on 25 May, 2016. Vanguard Reports.

The project was to be financed by Africa Finance Corporation, Access Bank, and other private investors who have already signified intention to be part of the construction, while Visible Assets Limited would be the coordinating firm.

But Commissioner for Waterfront Infrastructure Development, Mr. Adebowale Akinsanya during a ministerial briefing in Alausa, Ikeja area of Lagos, Southwest Nigeria cited the slow pace at which the concessionaire was working as the reason behind the termination of the contract.

According to him, “due to slow pace of work, the contract was terminated. We are now looking at many investors, though interest is very high.”

He said that investors had started scouting for the project from different parts of the world, though the state government had not decided on the proposals it had received.

“The state government has started the proposals. We have such investors from South Korea, Europe and the United States, among few others. What we are doing now is vetting the proposals. We do not want to waste any further time. So works are in top progress on the 4th Mainland Bridge.

“The investors would be named very soon, the state government will enter into concession agreement with appropriate investors that deliver the project,” he said.

On the Airport road project, Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Works and Infratructure, Engr. Temidayo Erinle said the state government was yet to obtain the federal government’s approval.

Fayose finally speaks on the controversies surrounding repatriation of Moji Olaiya’s corpse back to Nigeria

Fayose finally speaks

The Ekiti State Government has finally reacted to the controversies surrounding the repatriation of Moji Olaiya’s corpse back to Nigeria.

They described the online publications that claims the State Governor, Ayodele Fayose promised to fund the movement of her corpse back to Nigeria as fals, saying, “No official request has been made to the government in respect of the burial.”

The Special Assistant to the State Governor on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka, who made this known in a statement issued in Ado Ekiti on Monday, described as irresponsible, the comment made by a certain Olukayode Salako, claiming that Governor Fayose declined request to assist with the flying of Moji Olaiya’s corpse to Nigeria.

While maintaining that there was no official communication between the governor and Moji Olaiya’s family on the issue of assistance, Olayinka disclosed that:

“On Thursday, last week, I was contacted by phone by a journalist friend, Yomi Fabiyi on the need for the Ekiti State Government to assist in raising a sum of $15,000 needed to bring Moji Olaiya’s corpse to Nigeria.

“My immediate response was that an official request, via a letter, should be made and that the letter will be presented to the governor. I gave him my email address to which I said the letter should be sent.

“On Friday, I informed the Chief of Staff to the governor, Chief Dipo Anisulowo of my telephone conversation with Yomi Fabiyi, and my response that official letter should be written to the governor.

“Up till today, the letter has not been sent and as such, no official request has been made to the State Government.

“When my attention was drawn to online publications that Governor Fayose had elected to fund the flying of the deceased corpse to Nigeria, I called the journalist who did the report and told him pointedly that no such decision was taken by the governor.

“It was on the strength of this that Mr Yomi Fabiyi issued a press statement on behalf of the Burial Committee, stating that no request had been made to the government of Ekiti State and the official letter requested was yet to be sent.

“It, therefore, beats our imagination that certain character like Olukayode Salako could take to the online media to make derogatory comments on the governor, purportedly on behalf of the family.

“While we condole with the Olaiya family of Ijesha Isu Ekiti, Moji Olaiya’s friends, fans and colleagues in the movie industry, we wish to advise that the family should saddle only responsible people with the task of according their daughter a befitting burial.”

South African Doctors Perform Second Successful Penis Transplant

South African Doctors Perform Second Successful Penis Transplant

South African doctors from the Stellenbosch University have performed its second successful penis transplant operation in the country.

According to Times Live, the man who underwent the surgery is being kept anonymous for ethical reasons, and he’s a 40-year-old who has been without a penis for 17 years after a botched traditional circumcision.

In a statement released by Professor Andre Van der Merwe‚ Head of the Division of Urology at Stellenbosch University at the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, he said the patient:

“is certainly one of the happiest patients we have seen in our ward. He is doing remarkably well. There are no signs of rejection and all the reconnected structures seem to be healing well.”

According to him, the patient is expected to regain full use of his penis within six months of the transplant.

The first ever penis transplant was done in 2014 and it’s also the world’s first successful penile transplant which was also performed by Van der Merwe and his team at Tygerberg Hospital on December 11, 2014.

‘About two years later, the patient is doing extremely well, both physically and mentally”, Van der Merwe said.

‘He is living a normal life. His urinary and sexual functions have returned to normal, and he has virtually forgotten that he had a transplant,’ he added.

Bola Tinubu to fly back Moji Olaiya’s remains to Nigeria after Fayose reportedly refused..

Yomi Fabiyi, Filmmaker and Publicity Secretary, and one of Moji Olaiya Burial Committee posted on Instagram that the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, has paid for the repatriation of the body of the late Nollywood actress who died last week in Canada.

Pictured above is Bola Tinubu with Adun, the eldest daughter of Moji Olaiya.

Though Few days ago, reports went viral that the Ekiti State Government stopped the burial from taking place in Canada as planned.. But then the burial committee however issued a statement denying the reports, saying they were yet to get feedback from the state government concerning the burial.

Olukayode Salako has now revealed that Ekiti Governor, Ayo Fayose, dismissed their request even though the Late Moji Olaiya was an indegene and Cultural Ambassador of the state.

Stating that they got assistance from Tinubu instead… Salako Wrote:

WHEN SUCH A MAN OF CRUDE, DIRTY CHARACTER AND ORIENTATION IS IN CHARGE OF LEADERSHIP AND POWER
Burial Committee: Your Excellency, Moji Olaiya is dead and as an ambassador of your state, we would appreciate your support to fly her corpse back to Nigeria for befitting burial.

Governor: Who is Moji?! I don’t know any Moji. Please, stop disturbing my phone!

What an aberration! What an akwardness and crudity in leadership! Meanwhile, Thank you Asiwaju Bola Hammed Tinubu for always proving it that you remain among the only few reasonable, reliable and benevolent fathers of the Yoruba nation ever since. Moji’s remains are coming back home.

Thank you Jagaban! Thank you all well meaning Nigerians who have contributed in one way or the other. Thank you sir! What a man with such a large heart!

Then, Fabiyi wrote:

The Committee after due deliberation consulted our father and a National Grand Patron of our association (TAMPAN) Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu on the 21st May, 2017 to inform him of the demise of our colleague Moji Olaiya and that our humble unanimous decision is to have her body back, then given beffitting burial and have her 2 months old daughter re-united with the family.

Today, Monday 22nd May, 2017, the Committee members, Adunola (Eldest daughter of Late Moji Olaiya) and 2 elder brothers of Late Moji Olaiya met with Asiwaju Bola Tinubu and he expressed his sympathy directly and gave adequate support that will cover the entire air-frieght.

On behalf of the family, colleagues and friends we say a big thank you to the National Leader for his fatherly and timely intervention. Further support or assistance from other sources if recieved will be adequately aknowledged. For now, we are geateful to Asiwaju and his family.

The family and committee will however take it from there. Moreso, every other information relating the arrival and burial plans will be released shortly.

Thank you all.
