A Senior Secondary School student from Jesus College, Otukpo Benue State – Godwin Ejeh was on October 6th electrocuted to death in the school’s hostel while trying to charge his mobile phone.
According to the school principal Mr Ella Samuel, who spoke to Idoma Voice, the 18-year-old died while attempting to charge his phone directly from a naked wire.
“I received a call from one of my staff yesterday while I was on an assignment that one of my students has been shocked by electric, that I should rush down to the clinic immediately, on reaching the clinic. I only came to meet his dead body. On getting back to my school, after some findings, I discovered that incident happened while he was trying to charge his phone according to another student by the name lucky who witness the incident. I sincerely sympathize with the family of deceased and I pray his soul rest in perfect peace. Amen,”
He was laid to rest yesterday 7th October, in his hometown Ekere Owukpa, Ogbadibo local government area of Benue state.
Hours ago, one Moji Coker shared her story, now this lady pictured above shared her own story moments ago with Myunfilteredng.
Read her story below:
I experienced my first abuse when I was 7 by my neighbour’s son. I had a series of abuse after the first one, but that was the only one my mum knew about. I was abused by her brother who would come to visit us during the holidays. At the time, I was 9.
I knew what he was doing was wrong but I never told my mum. This went on repeatedly. I had already started masturbating when I was 7. When I was 13, I loved to read romance books, so when I needed inspiration to masturbate, I would pick up one of the romance novels and look for specific pages.
I had so much information stored up in my head. At 13, we had financial issues in my family, so my dad suggested I go live with his sister, my aunt. She never really liked me but her husband did not mind, so he gave the consent for me to move in with them. I remember one day, my aunt’s husband asked me, “Kike would you prefer I spank or scold you when you do something wrong, or would you prefer I kiss or hug you?” I replied, “Daddy, I’ll prefer you hug me.” I never knew he was indirectly asking for my permission to abuse me, so I gave consent. One day, after writing my first West African Examination Council (WAEC) exam, I got home, and was washing the dishes.
He came to meet me in the kitchen and he started kissing me, touching my breasts and playing with my genitals. I remember him pulling down my pants, and he saw the fear in my eyes. He told me not to worry that he wouldn’t penetrate or disvirgin me.
When he was done, I cried, thinking, “Is this what I was created for?” I was a bit surprised this was coming from him, because everyone adored him and he was very kind.
My heart broke. I was in that house for 4 months and I can’t remember how many times this happened, because it continued. I eventually left and moved back home after my exams. Few months after secondary school, my mother walked out of our lives forever and we don’t know where she is till today.
I gained admission into Lagos State University (LASU) part-time after years of trying to get into university. By the time I got to my 2nd year, my dad’s life took a bad turn and his finances dwindled. He refused to pay my school fees. He came back to Nigeria not knowing he wouldn’t be able to go back to London.
He started selling all that he had. I sold used clothes, underwear (okirika) and recharge cards to make ends meet. I had options of looking for an Aristo when it was difficult to pay my school fees but I made up my mind not to. In February 2010, my father died after a brief illness. My younger sister was brought back from the UK.
I was left with my siblings with no hope. People couldn’t understand how we survived because we had lost everything. By this time, I was born again, so I just handed over my life and my siblings to God. My siblings and I had to live with different people because we didn’t have a good house to live in.
In my 3rd year of university, I started photography, got a place to intern and that was the beginning of my photography journey. I stopped masturbating, but I started having the urges over and over, again. I sought therapy and it was discovered that I never healed from all I bottled in.
I’ve started therapy and I’m also willing to go for more therapy with my spouse before I get married. I run an enterprise of my own and I have empowered about 500 Nigerians with the skills God has blessed me with. I believe God is real because despite everything that happened to me, I’m still here.
20-year-old Uweb Samuel, a Cross River State indigene working as a domestic help in Magodo area of Lagos, sat on the grounds of the Lagos State Police Command Headquarters, Ikeja, with his head bowed.
Shaking his head intermittently to register remorse, Uweb said he did not imagine he would end up the way he had.
“My boss trusted me so much. In fact, I had access to every part of the house,” he said.
But that trust came back to bite his boss, Mr. Ajadi Babatunde, few days ago when he came back from a trip abroad and left a wad of pound sterling notes in his room.
Saturday PUNCH learnt that he trusted his manservant so much that he left the house but left his key on the door of his room..
That day, Babatunde took a peek inside the room and saw something he could not resist.
“I counted the £50 notes and there were 67 there,” he said.
That is £3,350. In current official exchange rate of pounds to naira, that amounts to N1.33m. Samuel said he knew it was a lot of money that could change his life, but thought about building a house immediately.
He said,
“There is no house in our village in Calabar that my siblings and I could call a home. So, I thought it was my chance to build a house for my family.
“I took the money before my boss came back home and took it to my sister’s husband to hide for me.
“When my boss came back and started to look for the money, he asked me and I told him I did not see any money. Even though it was just the two of us in the house, I insisted I did not take any money.
“Some workers were doing some renovation work in the compound. He asked if any of them entered the house but they said no. The workers said I must have been the one who took the money and started to beat me.
“They tortured me even though my boss did not instruct them to do that. I still did not admit that I took it. But when it got to a stage, I told them I would kill myself, my boss then told them to take me to the police. But his brother came and spoke with me gently, that was why I decided to confess.”
By the time the police stormed the house of Samuel’s brother-in-law, half of the money was gone, while the man had gone into hiding. Samuel sobbed as he said he was sad that he betrayed his boss’ trust.
According to him, he was being paid N15,000 monthly as a domestic help but that his crime had nothing to do with his salary.
“I wish my boss would forgive me. I did not know this is what will happen to me,” he said.
The police have said investigation was ongoing on the case and the suspect would soon be charged to court.
Men are usually painted as the mean ones in relationships. They are blamed for cheating, being disrespectful and generally taking the piss.
However, these misdeeds are not limited to guys alone. Some girls can wash and hang a guy dry, clear his bank account, leave him broke and on to the next one. It takes a really smart guy to detect signs he is being played.
Especially when he is in love with the girl, his mumu button is activated and only a deliverance or friends intervention can save him.
So guys, before you burn a hole in your pocket and your heart, study the signs that let you know if she’s real or just playing your ass.
1. Always the damsel in distress
Now this is a major warning for guys with a hero complex, always wanting to be her knight is shinning armour; if she calls you to save her all the time then you want to start hear alarm bells.
You are her personal chauffeur, her go-to “best friend” when she has nothing better to do, her cover-up buddy (always covering up her ass, even when she doesn’t let you in on the full story).
If you notice this, don’t panic just be aware of your position in the life of the girl you might be thinking is your potential wife.

A Christian Vlogger and blogger, Moji Coker shared a story of how she battled with Masturbation for so long, on Instagram hours ago.
It took God’s divine intervention before she could break free, read her story below:
I look so innocent in this picture, but if only you knew what my mind knew.
I grew up in England and I believe in this picture I was 6 years old. So young and full of life.
But my mind at this time was already corrupt. At this young age I knew what sex was, had watched a couple of x-rated movies and I’d even started playing with myself (masturbating).
Who knew I would deal with these addictions for over 20 years of my life. I for one didn’t. But it continued, it progressed and it took Jesus to save and deliver me.
I don’t know what you’re dealing with. I don’t know what you’ve been battling with for a very long time. I don’t know the addictions and vices you feel you can’t overcome.
But I do want you to know something, Jesus saves. Jesus heals. Jesus delivers. He saved me from every vice and set me free. He broke every yoke of addiction I’ve had to deal with.
He restored my soul. He gave me life. And I do believe that if any man be in Christ Jesus he is a new creature, old things have passed away behold all things have become new.
So my dears I don’t know what you’re going through, I don’t know how bad you feel or think or believe you are.
But one thing is for sure, Jesus saves. And He’s ready for you if you come to Him.
A woman has accused her pastor husband of alleged plans to sacrifice her for ritual purposes.
Pastor Uchenna Joseph and Patience were said to have had their wedding introduction in 2014 and were planning for a church wedding in Ebonyi state, when she got pregnant and gave birth to a boy about seven months ago which has put the wedding plans on hold.
However, Patience has come out openly to say that her spouse was instrumental to the torture she received from a five-man team who after gang-raping her, also attempted to kill her for ritual purposes.
However, the cleric has debunked the allegation describing it as a conspiracy and a ploy to get unnecessary attention from members of the public as he was yet to complete the required money meant to pay as dowry on his wife.
Vanguard gathered that the cleric was a spiritual guardian to one of his in-laws Mrs Martins Chinyenren until their relationship turned sour over the allegation by Patience about her husband’s misdemeanor.
According to Mrs. Martins, the couple travelled to Port Hacourt three months ago against the wish of Patience’s parents to visit a pastor friend, Quintus David who was the pastor of a church at No 2, Nwigwe Close, Mercy Land Port Harcourt but after a long stay, they also tried to assist in the growth of the ministry.
Along the line, there was communication gap between Patience and her family as she was no longer in touch with them.
According to Mrs Chinyenren, she got a distress call from Patience one day claiming she had been subjected to inhuman treatment by her husband and his friends and sent the church address in Port Harcourt requesting her to come immediately to her rescue before it was too late.
She traced the church address to a room apartment where she met her sister half dead and she raised the alarm which is presently generating controversies in the families.
It was gathered that Patience and son were returned to Ilisan Remo for medical attention after which the matter was lodged at Ilisan Remo Police Division for investigations but the family is presently accusing the Nigeria Police Force of handling the matter with levity.
However, a source at the Division who pleaded anonymity said the Police was conducting a thorough investigation on the case. ‘
’The matter is more of a family issue and the Pastor has been granted bail but we are doing our best to unravel the situation”, the police source said .
With scars all over her body, Patience was, as at last Monday, still undergoing treatment at a private home and battling to regain her health. With much effort, she narrated her journey into the marriage saying she was tortured, gang-raped and almost sacrificed for ritual purposes in Port Harcourt
Her words:
“I was a petty trader in Ikorodu town before my marriage while my husband was a full time pastor. In the course of our relationship, I expended all my earnings but this was not in vain as I gave birth to a boy in February 2016.
Three months after, my husband suggested we should visit his friend in Port Harcourt to raise fund for my business. During our three months stay, I became a prophetess and also assisted in evangelism.
But on one fateful day, my husband conspired with his friends to sacrifice me for ritual purposes and my refusal earned me incarceration as they tortured and gang-raped me. This took place for a number of days until I reached my sister through a text message and she came to my rescue. They separated me from my son and were about tying me to the ceiling fan when my sister arrived the one-room church.
My wedding gown and other items were kept for two years as he is yet to complete the dowry,”
In a chat with Vanguard, Pastor Uchenna alleged that his wife was both psychologically and emotionally imbalance during their stay in Port Harcourt.
He said,
“she used to see visions and loved evangelism but one day, she was on evangelism field with my friend’s relative when she was spiritually attacked and she started exhibiting strange behaviour.
But my mistake was that I did not inform her parents believing it was a minor issue until she became violent and we had to seek spiritual help by inviting some pastors to conduct deliverance for her.
She however sent a message to her elder sister and I was misunderstood. The scars on her body were as a result of the violent situation she found herself.
How can I connive with others to kill the mother of my baby? Her family was just being harsh on me for failure to complete the dowry because out of N100,000, I only paid N40,000”.
In a telephone conversation, Port Harcourt based Uchenna’s friend, Pastor Quintus said Patience’s allegation was baseless. According to him,
“there is a misunderstanding between the pastor and his in-laws but I was not part of the development that led to Patience’s predicament,” Meanwhile, Patience was still undergoing both medical and spiritual treatment in Ilishan Remo but she vowed not to return to her cleric husband: ‘’I have spent all my earnings on this marriage which has almost cost me my life and I will never return to that home”, she said
Parents. Here’s something you should take a cue on.
Mofe Van Zekins shared an interesting yet eye-opening story of how his nephew had to undergo a major surgery on his spinal cord due to the heavy book bag he’s been carrying to School.
See photos and full narration below:
This is an eye opener for parents whose children attends Primary School.
The photos are images of my Nephew who attended Primary School and due to his heavy book bag he started walking with a bend and complained of back pain.
On visiting the doctor, he had to undergo major surgery to rectify the problem.
I plead with you don’t allow your child to lift a heavy school bag on his/her back.its very common among us nigerians. where we will buy all the textbooks our kids need and expect them to take it to school each day.

A woman reportedly “ran mad” on Friday, after discovering the father of her two kids and husband for 6 years had died since 2002.
It was pandemonium and endless drama in old port Harcourt town waterside as a woman identified as Grace Amadi by her neighbors ran mad on Friday afternoon after making a shocking discovery that her husband of 6 years and father to her 2 children had died since 2002, LeadersNg reports.
A source told LeadersNg that Mrs Grace and her husband whose name was given as Tony had been married since 2010 and have been living peacefully with their 2 daughters who were both conceived in 2011 and 2013 respectively.
Mr Tony had left for his job normally this morning and today was supposed to be a normal day in their lives until she received a visitor in the late hours of the morning who claimed he was a distant relative of Tony. The visitor’s exact conversation with Grace could not be extracted from either of them as the visitor left shortly before Mrs Grace began to scream in disbelief and rage, several times throwing herself on the floor to induce injuries.
A source at the scene says neighbors gathered round and saw old pictures of Tony lying on the floor, apparently left behind by the visitor for Mrs Grace.
The source was also shocked at the pictures left behind, one was wedding ceremony pictures of Tony and another woman dated May 2000, another was a car accident wreckage which had allegedly killed Tony, another was Tony’s remains lying in an open casket apparently depicting his funeral dated July 2002, the last one was a picture of a grave headstone carrying the full name and the dates of birth and death. The mystery remains, how is someone who had died in 2002 alive and well and even remarried with children?
Attempts were made to reach Mr Tony by phone but they all proved abortive as his number was not reachable. A delegation of neighbors were sent to his office to retrieve Mr Tony but the delegation returned empty handed and revealed that Mr Tony never arrived at the office that morning as he drove out for work from his house.
Mrs Grace had since be taken to a local prayer house for spiritual treatment against the advice of a psychiatric home while her children are being looked after by her neighbors as they look on confused. Maybe one day they will be old enough to be told that their father had died before they were born.

One of the most important factors to be considered when choosing a life partner is how satisfying your intercourse life is going to be, no doubt! But how can you be so sure whether or not if it’s going to be a good one if you and your partner to be decide to abstain before you tie the knots?! This is a debatable question that has been on everyone’s lips for a very long time… even till now!

The Lagos State Police Command has confirmed the arrest of a middle aged woman who allegedly engaged the services of professional assassins to murder her husband and father of her 4 children.
The female suspect was arrested at her house located within the Lekki area of Lagos after it was confirmed that she paid about N600,000 to assassins to help her carry out the killing with the promise of paying a balance of N400,000 when the husband is confirmed dead.
Fatai Owoseni, Lagos State Commissioner of Police who confirmed the incident, said the woman was among 25 suspected criminals arrested by the command in two weeks.
Owoseni refused to disclose the identity of the woman, saying it would jeopardize investigation, but affirmed that the hired assassins had confessed to the crime.
“He said that the woman paid him N600 ,000 to eliminate her husband. We are currently on the trail of the assassins,” he said, explaining that the woman was picked up after a suspect was arrested and he named her as the person who contracted him to kill her husband.
According to insiders, the marriage between the couple has been rocky because the husband was always complaining that his wife sleeps around while the wife complains that the man seriously monitors her movement and tries to control her finances. This was said to have led to a separation but the legal divorce never took place.
In a bid to be free, the wife contracted assassins who attacked the house but ended up entering the wrong apartment and shooting the wrong persons but were were caught before the succeeded in their murder mission. There and then they were rounded up.
Incriminating text messages and call records confirm that indeed, the wife had been in contact with the killers. The couple have three daughters and a son.
In a shocking twist, Anonymous insiders revealed that a cousin of the husband is allegedly in a secret relationship with the wife. The couple hail from Imo state. Investigation is ongoing
Oh! It wasn’t funny the backlashes he received after his so called “advice” hit the web like the speed of light – Tobi Label, had few hours of Social media fame after he adviced guys on how to rape guys in a Facebook group. (In case you missed it)
This caused the lad to deactivate his Facebook account after the news with his photo and advice went viral… well, he has come back now and has claimed that he wasn’t the one who posted such advice, stating that his account was hacked.
He wrote below:
I was just in school today going on with my normal life, I was at the school hostel (Akindeko) to charge my phone and take my drugs (the once I was given earlier at the health centre after going to complain about my medical condition) until i got a call from my sister via mom’s phone. First she asked me what’s wrong with me, I didn’t understand, again she asked why would I deliberately get myself in trouble by writing rubbish on facebook, I still didn’t understand, then she said I should check my facebook account.
I immediately rushed to my phone and logged in via free facebook for airtel, and I saw all the whole trending news about a post made with my facebook on a closed group about “rape”. I’m urging everyone to debunk such news as I never made such, my account was hacked into.
The last time I logged in was yesterday evening after running out of data. The perpetrators even chat with some of my friends.
I’m a totally gentle and God fearing young man, I’m 20 and i can tell the whole world I’ve never been involved in any sexual assault with any lady, even in school no girl have ever even come into my room since 100level and with full confidence I’ll say any lady in this world and beyond should come out and tell everyone with evidence.
I’ve taken proper steps by reporting immediately to the student affairs and I’ve been told to bring a letter of complaints tomorrow. So i urge all my friends and family to relax, it’s all under control. Please no one should call me to ask anything.

A rough estimate of 30 female ex-members of the National Youth Service Corps, were arrested yesterday night while celebrating their passing out at a popular joint in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State.
A team of Special Anti-Robbery squad (SARS) operatives stormed the popular Maitama in Ewet Housing, arresting all the women present in a raid aimed at eradicating the area of prostitutes. They were ex-corpers but arrested as prostitutes.
According to Akwa Ibom Trending, quoting The Mail,
The women were accused of engaging in prostitution. The women were chauffeured on police vans enroute the court. Efforts by family members of the former corp s members to bail their daughters met brick walls as the police said they have “orders from above” to charge them to court.
A female corps member told us on condition of anonymity said she was lucky to have been in the rest room at one of the joints when the police stormed the place. She said the arrest of her colleagues who were just celebrating their passing out is an infringement on their fundamental human rights, stating that the action by the police has painted Akwa Ibom in very bad light.
In barely three days after a family celebrated the birth of a boy, identified as Kabir, his step-mother (name withheld) has been accused of feeding the infant with acid.
The step-mother was said to have fed the baby with the poison when she requested to bath the newly born child.
According to The Point, the mother of the baby willingly gave the baby to her husband’s first wife, with the hope that the woman was going to bath the child.
The step-mum was said to have taken the child to a corner, and allegedly fed him with acid. After the act, the cry of the baby alerted the mother who immediately requested for her baby, but the step-mum was reluctant in releasing the baby to her.
The mother of the child was said to have quickly rushed the baby to the Ilorin general hospital where the doctor confirmed that the child was fed with acid. Meanwhile, the step-mother who allegedly poisoned Kabir, said she fed the infant with a methylated spirit, adding that she committed the crime under the influence of a spell.
Although the life of Kabir was saved due to prompt medical attention, the step-mother has refused to produce the ‘methylated spirit’ she fed the child with, despite threats and intimidation from her husband who is married to three wives.
In a related development, the operatives of the Kano state police command apprehended three housewives in connection with the attempted murder of a girl in Gayawa village. The suspects were recently arrested in the village after the father of the girl complained to the police.
Marriage is for the wise, marriage is for those who are insightful. There is no point constituting menace to the society simply because you and your spouse are not compatible.
We are tired of hearing cases of domestic violence and abusive relationships. As beautiful as marriage is, it is not a do or die affair.
It is important for you to choose your partner carefully in order to have the best out of the union. You cannot feign ignorance if you end up in an abusive marriage. It is either you failed to see the signs or you decided to ignore the signs you saw.
The beauty of a relationship goes beyond being joined in holy matrimony; it is the life you life after being joined that matters most to people.
Since the society has made women a focal point of attention when marriage is to be discussed, we are going to let you know the major types of women every man wants to marry.
Even though people around makes women feel eerie about being single when they are in their late twenties, we will tell you the things you need to work on while you wait on your man.
If you are older than 25 and still single, it will be good for you to calm down and do the right thing. It will be painful for you to have to wait that long before getting married and still end up having a bad marriage.
Men have a mind of their own; irrespective of the shape you may have as a woman, there are certain things they look for when marriage is in view. Check out the types of women that will be every man’s dream woman any time any day:
1. The submissive woman
No one wants to know about your qualifications and the positions you occupy. If you are not submissive to your man, you are of no use. Men want to be in charge, knowing they have a spouse or a partner who makes them a priority thrills them. Being rich and industrious is a plus if you are submissive. Being submissive does not make you a fool, you should never interpret this virtue as slavery.
So it seems like there’s no love lost between the pair, as the plus-sized actress recently named her colleague as her ‘Woman Crush Wednesday (WCW)’.
The once upon a time frequent movie duo were rumoured to be at loggerheads, and an apparent lack of acknowledgement from one to the other on both their birthdays further fueled the rumours.
In celebration of her newly-married friend however, gbogbo bigz gurl wrote,
‘My #wcw goes to my dear friend, sister and colleague, whose impact in the movie industry is worth celebrating, I also celebrate her dedication, perseverance and acting prowess, keep making indelible marks in Nollywood…….I call her LAFUNKY.’
Two ladies were on Thursday set ablaze by angry mob at the ‘Owner’s Occupier area’ in Makurdi, Benue State for allegedly involving themselves in acts of lesbianism.
According to the report making the round on social media, the victims were caught in the act and were stripped naked, beaten and set ablaze on the street by residents of the area.
However, the Benue State Police Command has denied knowledge of the report, saying that several efforts to get the details of the report had proved abortive.
Speaking with DAILY POST on Thursday evening, the Benue State Police PRO, Moses Yamu said, “We have seen the story on social media but report has not been made.
“I still doubt if this happened in Benue. How can such event happen in Makurdi and the police is not informed? Anyway, we shall let the public know once we are done with our investigations.”
A 40-year-old Muslim cleric, Saheed Gbadamosi, was on Tuesday arraigned in an Ikeja Magistrates’ Court for allegedly threatening to bathe a pastor with acid and destroying his church property.

“The accused and others also threatened to bathe him with acid if he refused to stop converting his ‘clients’ to his church.
Nwosu said the accused stormed the complainant’s church with hoodlums and attacked the complainant.
“The complainant was in the fellowship with his members when the accused stormed the church with hoodlums carrying iron rods, sticks and other dangerous weapons.

The accused pleaded not guilty to the charges against him.
The offences contravened Sections 56, 166, 170 and 348 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2011.
According to criminal law, the accused might be sentenced to a minimum of three years imprisonment upon conviction.

We have gotten to the stage where we need to ask ourselves questions as we critically reflect on the things we do in the name of tradition.
As it is, we are the architect of our own destiny; tradition will always be what we want it to be. It is sad to know that many people have been led to believe doing something in a particular way is the norm.
