An NYSC member deployed to Cross River State, Mr Onwuegbuzie Stanley-Samuel, has died of Lassa Fever Disease. The Babcock University graduate died at the University of Calabar Teaching Hospital (UCTH).

Read Report Below, as gathered by Vanguard:

The state Commissioner for Health, Dr Inyang Asibong, who disclosed this to journalists on Friday in Calabar, said that the deceased hailed from Delta and was serving in Obubra before he died. Abisong said that the deceased was first admitted at the General Hospital, Obubra, where he was treated for cerebral malaria for one week.

She said that his condition got worse and he was referred to the UCTH for further treatment while his blood sample was taken to Irrua Specialist Teaching Hospital in Edo for diagnosis.

“The incident started about two weeks ago in Obubra and we all know that the incubation period of Lassa fever is 3-21 days.

“The deceased is an indigene of Delta State. The last time he travelled to his home in Lagos State was during the Christmas period in December 2016 and came back to Cross River in January 2017.

“The deceased was living in the corps members’ lodge in Obubra and since he came back in January, he has not left that community “Unfortunately, we finally lost him yesterday. Sadly, the corps member contracted the disease in Cross River,” she said.

Meanwhile, Dr Thompson Igbu, Coordinator, World Health Organisation (WHO), Cross River has assured the residents that the organisation had been working hard to prevent further spread of the disease. Igbu said that the organisation was working closely with the state Ministry of Health to curb further spread of the disease in the state. According to him, over 15 persons, including the deceased colleagues living in the NYSC lodge in Obubra, had been line-listed.

“We have line-listed over 15 persons in Obubra who are `primary contact’ and the hospital where the deceased was first admitted has also been line-listed. “We are supporting the state with essential drugs and we are making sure that necessary steps are taken to curb further spread of the disease’’, he said.

Dr Ngim Ogbu, Chairman, Medical Advisory Committee, UCTH, said that the corps member`s death was the second recorded case of death resulting from Lassa fever in the hospital. Ogbu said that the infection control unit of the hospital was on top of the case from the beginning by limiting the number of contacts.

“The body of the deceased has not been sent to the mortuary, this is because we are taking measures to curb further spread of the disease’’, he said.

Pastor trying to walk on water at the Crocodile River gets eaten by 3 crocodiles

A pastor from a local church in White River Mpumalanga died this morning trying to demonstrate a biblical miracle to his congregants.

Pastor Jonathan Mthethwa of the ‘Saint of the last days church drowned into the crocodile River also know as the crocodile river and was seen by his church members getting eaten by 3 crocodiles.

“The pastor taught us about faith on Sunday last week. He promised he would demonstrate his faith to us today, but he unfortunately ended up drowning and getting eaten by 3 large crocodiles in front of us. We still don’t understand how this happened because he fasted and prayed the whole week.” said Deacon Nkosi, who is one of the church members.

It is said that Pastor Mthethwa walked into the water and when he was 30 meters inside the river, he attempted to ascend above the water so he can start walking, but the 3 crocodile appeared out of no where and started feasting on him.

“They finished him in a couple of minutes. All that was left of him when they finished eating him is a pair of sandals and his underwear floating above the water.” said Deacon Nkosi.

ER24 responded to the scene 30 minutes after,but upon arrival, there was not much they could do as the man of god was already dead.

A very wicked woman in Kano State locked her step-children in a room in their apartment, hoping that they’d all die of starvation.

The woman who is married to the children’s father, allegedly locked the kids immediately after their father traveled out of the state for business.

The 3 kids were rescued after some of their neighbors got to know about the incident. The Kano State Police Command has already stepped into the case.

A south african-lady has come out publicly to cry for help after her Nigerian ex-husband, Mr. Nweke continues to assault her, adding that soon her family will be uploading her funeral.

Below is how, Nonhle Mamthembu Nweke, a housewife based in South Africa who is a domestic violence victim, shared her story.
