A Saudi man has been apprehended after he shot a male obstetrician, arguing that he had no right to assist his wife’s delivery and that a woman gynecologist should have been around.
Dr Muhannad Al Zabn, who has a Jordanian father and a Saudi mother, delivered the baby one month ago at the King Fahad Medical City in the Saudi capital Riyadh.
The man, who has not been named, is believed to have wanted a female doctor to deliver the baby and was upset that the male doctor would have seen his wife naked.
According to media reports, the father went to the hospital and told the doctor he wanted to see him to thank him for helping his wife with the delivery of the baby, Saudi news site Sabq reported on Thursday.
The two met in the garden of the hospital and during the conversation, the shooter took out a gun he had concealed under his clothes and fired at the doctor.
As the Saudi father fled the scene, medics rushed the victim to the emergency department then to the intensive care unit. The shooter was later arrested by the police.
Bassam Al Buraikan, the spokesperson for the hospital confirmed the incident, saying that a doctor was shot and that his condition was now stable.

According to Doris, this most challenging experience happened when she was producing the movie “Omo Iya Kan,” which was directed by her ex-husband, Daniel Ademinnokan, who is now married to Stella Damasus.
“It was when I did “Omo Iya Kan. I was producing, playing two characters in a movie, and I just had my baby who was just 3 months then, and I just lost my dad,” she said. So, it was kind of challenging, but then, it all went well.”

Food is important and here are 6 things you should totally avoid on a first date:
1) Spaghetti
Most people can’t eat spaghetti without a slurp and that slurp splatters sauce all over your mouth and chest not to mention ruining your makeup.
Forget that romantic scene from Disney’s ‘the Lady and the tramp’, spaghetti is not romantic food.
2) Draw soup
A favorite among Nigerians and guaranteed to leave a mark. Okra, ogbona or mixed, anything that leaves a trail from your plate to your mouth should be avoided at all costs.
3) Shawarma
Show me a person that can finish a whole Shawarma without making a mess and I’ll show you the real MVP! Most people can’t manage this small feat which is why Shawarma is a no-no.
In an amnesty published in Government Gazette No 36, general notice 85/2016, Mugabe pardoned all convicted female prisoners regardless of offences, with the exception of a few serving life sentences.
“A full remission of remaining imprisonment is, hereby, granted to all female prisoners regardless of offences committed, save for those sentenced to life imprisonment and to death,” part of the order reads.
Chikurubi Female Prison, which was home to 246 prisoners, released 139 inmates yesterday.
Some of the prisoners were due to serve lengthy jail terms for murder, fraud and armed robbery.
Those who remained behind are inmates still on remand and a few foreigners, who will be released to their respective governments.
Mosline Chakamufuna (25), who was sentenced two weeks ago to 10 years in prison for murdering her child, was one of the beneficiaries of the presidential pardon.
She joins Adlaidy Murombo (21), who was jailed for 10 years in 2014 for attempted murder, after striking her uncle with an iron bar in the eye.
Zimbabwe Prisons and Correctional Services (ZPCS) acting public relations officer, Superintendent Priscilla Mthembo said more than 2 000 inmates were likely to benefit from the latest presidential pardon.
“We don’t have the total figure at the moment because the verification process is still going on, but we expect over 2 000 prisoners to be released under the amnesty order issued by the President,” she said.
For male prisoners, Mugabe pardoned all those who are under the age of 18 regardless of offences committed, and those over the age of 60, who have served two-thirds of their prison terms and all inmates in open prison.
Terminally-ill prisoners, who were unlikely to survive their prison terms, were fully pardoned regardless of offences.
At Chikurubi Farm Prison, there was still uncertainty, as prison officers were still compiling names of beneficiaries, particularly those jailed for stocktheft, who have served a third of their sentence.
The officer-in-charge of the male prison, Superintendent Tonderai Magwaza, said so far, he had vetted 190 prisoners, who would be released.
Male inmates convicted of murder, rape, armed robbery and treason were not part of those pardoned.
The jail, which has a holding capacity of 560 inmates, currently has 681 prisoners.
Mthembo said the amnesty had the effect of decongesting the 46 prisons around the country, which were currently overpopulated by nearly 16%.
Currently, the correctional facilities have a population of 19 900 inmates, although their total holding capacity is just 17 000.

Commenting on Tiwa’s involvement on the track, Solidstar remarked,
“When the chance came to work with Tiwa, I immediately went for it.

Actor and ex husband of screen diva Toyin Aimakhu, Niyi Johnson has opened up on reports that he is in hot romance with fast rising director and actress, Seyi Edun.
The actor claimed in a statement that he would not dispel the news that he is dating Seyi but he is very sure that the news is baseless and pointless and that moreover, no publicity is bad as he and Seyi are currently enjoying the trend in which they intend to use to promote Seyi’s new film.
He says, ”I’m not defending because I can’t but I won’t because it is baseless and pointless… Anyway thanks for making us trend …. we will look into it ….”
From the statement, the actor did not fully confirm that he is not dating the rising star because he believes there’s no point in doing so thereby implying that the viral report is indeed true.
Fans of the actor have also called him out, asking why he would again date or enter a relationship with a film star following what happened to the previous affair with Nollywood star, Toyin Aimakhu.

In new interview with HFtv, singer Sean Tizzle finally addressed some of the controversies he has recently been embroiled in, his career and new projects.
Some of the issues he touched on include his former boss, Sound Sultan’s claim that he wrote the singer’s smash hit song, ‘Sho Lee’, a claim that CEO of Naija Ninjas made in 2013. Sean Tizzle whose real name is Morihanfen Oluwaseun Oluwabamidele had never addressed that story, until yesterday.
“I write my stuff,” Tizzle said, and explained that Sound Sultan made that claim because of a long-running ‘issue’ they had going on. “Some part of the song was recorded when I was with him, and when I left, I decided to finish it and drop it as a single. So he came back [and said] he wrote the song.”
On the criticisms he received following his November 2015 tweet, where he said that Omawumi’s cover to Adele’s “Hello” was better than the British singer’s version, Sean Tizzle refuses to apologise for it. “It’s my own opinion which I have a right to,” he said, adding that people can say whatever they want to.
On if he will be returning to Twitter ever again, the singer affirmed that he would, adding that the platform is his ‘home’, and he only left to get work done.
And on the constant accusation that he bleaches, the ‘Abiamo’ singer tried to laugh it off, but finally dismissed the criticism. “I don’t know about all that,” he said, adding that “people could still talk. I am just focused on dropping more cool sounds. I think that’s what matters. I have my album coming out in September.”
On Sunday May 22, 2016, founder of the Synagogue Church Of All Nations (SCOAN), TB Joshua, made a series of startling revelations regarding the present state of the nation. According to a statement issued by SOCAN reporter, Ihechukwu Njoku – the man of God claims Nigerians will endure more hardship and hunger strike in thE coming months.
During the service, Joshua read out a transcript of the prophecies he had given during his New Year’s Crossover Service, highlighting particularly the national food scarcity. On each point read, he expanded further, detailing what Nigeria and Africa are to expect in the nearest future.
FOOD SCARCITY
“There will be large scale scarcity, shortage of food. As a state, country, continent, we have to go back to the farm to arrest, to alleviate the forthcoming situation”, he read. Further expanding on the details of the prophecy, he said, “It is only a ‘shortage’ that you are experiencing now; you have not experienced ‘large scale.’ ”
Giving further insight, he proclaimed, “This one that I am saying now, ‘scarcity’, ‘large scale’, it’s a proverb. Whatever you can do from now till December – all of your money you will use to buy food – you will not have enough to buy.”
Still on Scarcity & NIGERIA’S ECONOMY
On the economic plight Nigerians are facing, Joshua read from his beginning of year prophecies: “The president will do everything to reject devaluation of the naira – which is a good idea from a good leader. But there will be overwhelming pressure which he will not be able to resist. Nigeria, we are in a valley. The future is crying for help.”
Expanding on the ‘valley’, Joshua said: “I explained that we are in a valley but it is not the valley of the shadow of death. There is no snake or scorpion, it’s different. When you are in the valley you will cry and cry but you will still get out of the valley.”
Advising those in the real-estate business he said, “If you are the type planning to build a house now, stop it for the mean time. If you are in the business of buying land, stop it for the mean time – look for another business. Stop it for the mean time until February next year. Use that money on the need of people now.”
Giving a sombre warning, he said, “I’m preparing you. Get ready; lager scale scarcity is coming! You have to continue to cut your coat according to your size. Don’t just continue to spend your money on something that won’t be able to help you. Spend your money on something that the whole world will be looking for – food, shelter.”
ANOTHER PLANE CRASH
On the Egypt Air crash, Joshua said: “Egypt has happened and the other one I am seeing is very close and I am going to say the country and the place. This one that I am seeing now is bigger than the one that happened. This one is very close now.
Every airport security must be tight. You should be careful who you employ to fly as a pilot or flight attendant because they too will apply for this kind of job and they will be patient enough; if it is one or two years they will be patient until the achieve their goal.”
The cleric dishes out national and international predictions on a regular basis, using the platform of his Sunday services, broadcast live on his Emmanuel TV.
AFRICAN POLITICS
Moving on the political climate in Africa, Joshua noted: “African leaders should quickly arrest the political situation. 50% of counties that do elections, at least 45% of them will face crisis.
More African countries will be under siege by terrorists because of pros and cons in choosing leaders. Mishandling of electoral processes will create a conducive atmosphere for terrorists.”
UK TERROR WARNING
Joshua also claimed to have seen an attack in the United Kingdom. He said: “Pray for the United Kingdom like the railways, people, and crowds where people gather because I’m seeing some funny people in their country.
But I am seeing with prayer and proper security it will be avoided but there will be a sign or trace that this happened but it will not happen the way that it was supposed to have happened but they will know that something happened there.”
