Benson Okonkwo5

Okay, please y’all, I’d really appreciate if y’all don’t crucify me, but I don’t really know who Benson Okonkwo is, but I know for sure that he’s an actor and an obvious male fashionista.

He stepped in head-to-toe matching outfit for a wedding and I most say that he really has a well constructed fashion statement cause he kinda murdered the look.

I mean, he matched his outfit from his clothes to his shoes. Lol. It takes a real fashionista to pull that though. Kudos Benson.

What do you think of his look though? Dope or Dead?

Female Bomber Gunned Down After Trying Forcefully To Enter Barracks.

Female Bomber

Soldiers of the 7 Division of the Nigerian Army in Maiduguri, Borno State, today gunned down a female suicide bomber trying to enter their barracks. The soldiers watched in horror as the bomb strapped on her body exploded.

Daily Trust reports that the suicide bomber described as a tall girl in red hijab approached the gate around 6:00 am, defying warnings by soldiers to stop and identify herself.

The report quoted a witness account of what transpired between the would-be-bomber and soldiers at the gate of the barracks:

“I was on duty at the gate when I heard my colleague, a soldier, saying to her, ‘do not be stupid, stop there and tell me who you are.’

The would-be-bomber responded:

‘You are stupid also. I will not stop.’ At that stage, I took cover in readiness for anything. I knew she must be on a rough mission but I was thinking they were many.

“That soldier warned her again that he would shoot if she refused to stop. The conversation was in Hausa. Meanwhile, she was still approaching us. Then she replied him; “shoot me, I know I will die just once.’ He fired at her once but he could not get her. Another soldier shot her on the leg and she fell. Even while on ground, she was still crawling toward us.

“That was the singular action that proved to us that this was a hardened bomber. We ran back for safety. From the far distance, another soldier opened fire on her and the bomb strapped to her body went off. We combed everywhere in case they were many but no other person was seen. No soldier sustained injury,”

AFP, who also told the story said:

The woman approached the barracks around 7:00 am and headed towards the gates.Military guards at the gates shouted at her to stop for security checks but she ignored them and continued walking towards the gates. She continued walking with her handbag slung on her shoulder‎, despite repeated shouts from the soldiers asking her stop.

“One of the soldiers opened fire on the woman and the handbag exploded, blowing the woman to pieces.”

Man Found Guilty Of Wife’s Murder Kills Self In Courtroom. (Photo)

Mark-and-Anne-Faville

A man who was before time sentenced to prison over the death of his wife, reportedly killed himself in the court where he was being sentenced.

Mark had been married to local fifth-grade teacher Anne, 52, for 32 years. They both lived in Virginia, and had three grown-up children.

As the years rolled by, Mark had become increasingly controlling over his wife. Anne felt trapped in the marriage and was looking for a way out. UK Mirror tells the story.

Before her death, Anne, 52, had reconnected with a high-school sweetheart online and rekindled their romance. Chris Crowley lived in California, but they messaged constantly and Anne was planning to end things with her husband to be with him.

Unfortunately, Mark knew about her plans. He’d grown suspicious and started to follow her everywhere. He didn’t want his wife to leave him.

On March 7, 2000, her online flame, Chris, called the police in a panic to say he hadn’t heard from Anne and he was worried. She’d told Chris she was going to tell Mark their marriage was over. So where was she?

Not long afterwards, at around 1pm, Mark ran to a neighbour’s house shouting for help. He said he’d come home and found Anne’s lifeless body – he thought she’d choked on some food so he’d performed the Heimlich manoeuvre.

Frantic neighbours Robert and Melissa Frederick raced over and found Anne’s body on the floor. She was cold to the touch, but Mark was sitting on her chest and slapping her face in an attempt to revive her. When Robert tried to help, Mark refused to step away.

Even when paramedics arrived, Mark was huddled around Anne, restricting their access. But they determined there was nothing they could do and Anne was pronounced dead.

After her death, police discovered Anne’s diary at her home,

“I am in love for the first time in 33 years,” it read. “I feel compelled to check my mail… I am having the time of my life.”

But an autopsy said Anne had choked on food – probably a piece of chicken because some was found in her stomach. Her death was deemed accidental.

Straight away, relations between Mark and his children grew strained.

The years went by and Mark remarried. His children filed a wrongful death lawsuit against their dad, alleging that he drugged, beat and choked Anne, then stood by as she died. It was dismissed, but Mark agreed on a settlement without admitting any guilt.

It took 12 years before the case was reopened and a new autopsy was ordered – done through a re-examination of the paperwork, pictures and evidence.

This time, a medical examiner said Anne had been suffocated in a homicidal manner. There was significant bruising to her arms, pelvic area, head, face and chest, as well as lacerations on her face.

In 2013, Mark was charged with murder. At the trial this year at Montgomery County Courthouse, Mark, now 70, confirmed that he knew Anne was planning to leave him and that she was sleeping in the spare room. His daughters testified against him.

Mark was found guilty of voluntary manslaughter and Anne’s family sobbed with relief. But there was a final twist. As Mark was led away, court officials were heard yelling, “Drop it, drop it.” Suddenly, the courtroom was evacuated.

After a few hours, it was revealed that Mark Faville had died from a self-inflicted wound. It was never disclosed just how Mark killed himself – to protect court security and so others couldn’t follow his example.

Courtroom staff aren’t allowed to carry guns, and x-ray machines screen for metal objects. All that was revealed was that he’d died from a laceration from a ‘non-metallic’ object.

“I Never Assaulted Yvonne Nelson…I Only Called Her Stupid” – Nigerian Man

yvnng

Recall we posted a story about how a Nigerian man – Elvis Eze reportedly assaulted Ghanaian Actress – Yvonne Nelson all because she refused him a hug. (Read Here)

Apparently, the said man who was reported to be allegedly on the run has denied claims he physically assaulted the actress.

Eze has revealed that contrary to the accusations peddled all over digital and social media, he never at any time physically assaulted Nelson; instead, he merely questioned the sultry actress over her negative attitude towards him after she snubbed him at the party.

It was widely reported on online entertainment news platforms, blogs, and the social media that Eze had purportedly assaulted Nelson physically over her refusal to shake his hands and hug him after he had been introduced to Nelson by Alabi during Alabi’s birthday celebrations on September 26 in Accra, Ghana.

Narrating his own side of the happenings that occurred on that fateful day to our correspondent, the Ghanaian-based Nigerian socialite said he was very disappointed that the actress could act so disrespectfully to him considering that he approached her courteously.

In his words, “Ingrid Alabi invited me to her birthday party on Saturday, September 26, 2015. Upon getting to the party venue, I saw Yvonne Nelson at the event. After the party, I went inside Ingrid’s sitting room, where she hosted her exclusive guests to inform her that I was leaving. During that period, Yvonne Nelson taking pictures with the celebrant and one other actress. Ingrid then asked me to join them to take pictures together which we did.

“After taking the pictures, Ingrid introduced me to Yvonne Nelson as her brother and Yvonne to me as a friend.

When the introduction was over, I wanted to have a handshake with Yvonne. She blatantly refused and she was rude to me, saying she doesn’t shake or hug people that she’s not familiar with and I walked out.”

Eze who disclosed that he was a huge fan of the actress prior to the incident said he approached Nelson when he spotted her sitting in her car on his way out of Alabi’s house.

Although, he admitted that there were verbal exchange of words between him and Nelson, he never for once threatened to raise a finger not to talk of physically fighting her.

“On my way out, I saw her sitting in her car and I walked up to her and told her that ‘Yvonne what you did in there is not called for because I’m a big fan of yours and I watch your movies, I follow your movies and I was opportune to see you for the first time after someone introduced me to you, I was just trying to say Hi and you were rude to me”.

She just exploded and said “I should shift and get out from her front that she doesn’t want to talk to me’ after which we began to exchange words, I told her that ‘you stupid or sick in the head.’ That was it and she started insulting me and of Nigerians saying that ‘Nigerians are useless, mad, crazy and stupid.”

So I walked away from there and I went home,” he said.

Eze disclosed that he was surprised when he heard that the case had degenerated badly to the extent that the issue propped up on networking site, Facebook, where he was accused of molesting Nelson.

He further said he was alarmed when he was told that his image was shown on TV stations and newspapers across Ghana and he had been reported to the Accra airport police.

According to Eze:

“Two days after the event, I saw a post on Facebook saying that Yvonne Nelson had been assaulted by a Nigerian man named Elvis Eze also known as Elvis Casino. I was so baffled seeing this so I immediately called Ingrid.

She (Ingrid) told me that Yvonne brought policemen to her house at about 3am, saying that Ingrid must take her to Elvis house to get him arrested for assaulting her.

This is what I was told by Ingrid. Later on, I started receiving numerous calls from my friends and associates, telling me that my face is on T.V. and on newspapers alleging that I assaulted Yvonne and that a case had been lodged at the at airport police station in Accra by Yvonne regarding the incident.”

Insisting that he was innocent of the accusations, Eze remarked; “I never assaulted her, I didn’t touch her or beat her, I did not molest her and I left there without anybody harassing me or chased me out because I did not touch her. Even Ingrid Alabi was there and she can bear me witness and other people there can also bear witness to this. A lot of people were there, actors and actresses that were there can bear me witness.”

Terribly pained about the incident, Eze said he was disappointed about how Nelson had handled the entire issue, saying he never expected the actress to have taken the issue to the public glare and defame his personality.

“I just saw her for the first time and I am one of her greatest fans, and I love her movies. I was surprised when I saw her at Ingrid’s party. So when I was introduced to Yvonne, I was so happy that I had met her finally. I was so surprised and disappointed how she was rude to me because I didn’t know the way she act is different from the way she behaves in real life. That is my own side of the story. It was just a normal misunderstanding, I was even surprised to see that things will get this far,” he concluded.

Man Divorces Wife Over $40,000 Wedding Dress

105

A man has angrily divorced his few days old wife for allegedly spending more than Dh150,000 (about $40,000) on her wedding dress rather than the wedding party.

The man was believed to have proposed to the woman shortly after they got acquainted.

Prior to the wedding, the man agreed to pay the woman Dh150,000 to spend on the wedding party and its preparations and invitation cards.

After the wedding party, the husband came to know that his wife had a debt of between Dh150,000 and Dh200,000.

That she had borrowed money to pay for the party. He confronted her and she admitted that she had spent the Dh150,000 that he gave to her on a white party dress.

She borrowed from relatives and friends to cover the expenses. To worsen the case, when her lenders asked her to repay the money, she requested that he join her to repay the debt as well. Unfortunately, the husband got very angry and filed for a divorce before a Sharia court – which he was granted.

Interesting! Read Husband’s Mail To Photographer Who Photoshopped His Wife’s Images.

A man’s mail to a photographer who altered his wife’s images with photo shop has gone viral on the internet.

Photographer, Victoria Caroline Boudoir shared the letter she received from her client’s husband on Facebook.

She wrote:

She said a mid-forties lady booked her services at a hotel in downtown San Antonio. She was a curvy, beautiful size 18. “I thought she looked like a goddess, but as most women do, she had a request.

She came to me, looked me straight in the eyes, and said “I want you to photoshop all of my cellulite, all of my angry red stretch marks, ALL of my fat, and all of my wrinkles….just make it go away. I want to feel gorgeous just ONCE.

“So, I did exactly as she asked. We spent an hour and a half together going through many, many poses. I went home, made every last stretch mark disappear, smoothed out every dimple of cellulite, took away every wrinkle. I turned her into the epitome of what every woman dreams of being.

Christmas rolls around, and she gifts her husband a BEAUTIFUL hand tooled album with about 30 of her images. 3 days later, I receive this very REAL email:

“Hi Victoria,

I am (blank)’s husband, ********. I am writing to you because I recently received an album containing images you took of my wife. I don’t want you to think that I am in any way upset with you….but I have some food for thought that I would like to pass on to you.

I have been with my wife since we were 18 years old, and we have two beautiful children together. We have had many ups and downs over the years, and I think…well, actually I KNOW that my wife did these pictures for me to “spice things up”.

She sometimes complains that I must not find her attractive, that she wouldn’t blame me if I ever found someone younger.

When I opened the album that she gave to me, my heart sank. These pictures…while they are beautiful and you are clearly a very talented photographer….they are not my wife. You made every one of her “flaws” disappear…and while I’m sure this is exactly what she asked you to do, it took away everything that makes up our life.

When you took away her stretch marks, you took away the documentation of my children. When you took away her wrinkles, you took away over two decades of our laughter, and our worries.

When you took away her cellulite, you took away her love of baking and all the goodies we have eaten over the years. I am not telling you all of this to make you feel horrible, you’re just doing your job and I get that.

I am actually writing you to thank you. Seeing these images made me realize that I honestly do not tell my wife enough how much I LOVE her and adore her just as she is. She hears it so seldom, that she actually thought these photoshopped images are what I wanted and needed her to look like.

I have to do better, and for the rest of my days I am going to celebrate her in all her imperfectness. Thanks for the reminder.
Regards,
…….

Incredible… is not it?

South African Woman Caught Trying To Sell Her Baby Online.

Baby Seller

South African police have reportedly arrested a woman who tried to sell her baby via the Internet for 5,000 rand ($380).

The 20-year-old woman was apprehended during an undercover operation following a tip-off from a member of the public that a baby was being sold on the website, Gumtree.

Her initial advert was immediately red-flagged by Gumtree, and removed straight away. The woman then created a second advert, with the sale disguised under the heading: “baby car seat” in the Baby and Kids sale section.

Pietermaritzburg police spokesperson Constable Mthokozisi Ngobese said a female officer was tasked to contact the mother on Saturday and set up the deal.

News24 reports that while the police in casual clothing kept watch, the mother met two undercover officers on the top floor of a KFC building.

The officers bought ice cream for the mother and began negotiation.

The mother explained that she was selling her child because his father would not offer any financial support, leaving her unable to raise the boy.

Police handed over R5 000 in duplicated notes to the mother as she said her final goodbyes to the child. Police pounced as she exited the building with money and ice cream in hand.

When the social worker exited with the toddler in her arms, the boy had a slow stream of tears on his face. It is unclear whether the boy will be placed in the care of the department or returned to family members.

How Mother Of 2 And Wood Seller Were Electrocuted In Lagos. (Photo)

Electrocuted

Two residents from the Araromi Quarters in Ketu Area of Lagos State, were reportedly electrocuted in broad day light. The victims, identified as Bashirat Rauf, a mother of two and Sodiq Saka, a wood seller, met their untimely fate under the same circumstance.

Bashirat Rauf was said to have rushed out from her apartment when she saw fire burning from a cable in a nearby school. She reportedly decided to quickly pick her children who were playing outside in order to avoid being caught by the fire when she got electrocuted in the process.

On his part, Sodiq Saka, 33, a plank seller, was said to had gone to fetch water to put off the fire in the school premises when he saw flame coming out of their compound and he got electrocuted in the process.

According to Mr. Saka Imam, the father of late Sodiq:

“As a Muslim, I have accepted my fate. There is nothing I could do to bring the dead back to life. “We were to gather on that fateful day. He was the one who slaughtered the Sallah ram he bought for me.

After that, he told me he was coming to get something down the street, only for someone to come and call me that my son had been electrocuted in the neighbourhood.

I was told by some witnesses at the scene of the incident that my son only went into the compound of the school premises where it was burning to assist the owner of the house, only for him to be electrocuted by the falling cable.

Sodiq was said to had stepped on the naked cable while trying to put off the fire. What else do I do, I cannot give birth to a grown up boy like him.”

The Secretary of Araromi Community Development Association, Mr.Wahab Awoyemi , described the incident as a very sad one for all resident of Araromi community.

“It was very sad for us to loose two persons in a day.The woman was in her apartment that fateful day preparing meal, when information got to her that the school near their apartment was burning.

She rushed out to pick her children who were playing outside their compound and stepped on the naked cable. She was electrocuted immediately.

“We made serious effort to rescue both of them. We went to Eko distribution company office at mile 12 to switch off the light.The person who was supposed to switch off the power was said not be on duty.

But with providence, they took off the power. It was after then we were able to remove them from the burning cable and took them to a private hospital in the community where they were later pronounced dead by the medical doctor of the hospital.”

“Before the ugly incident, we called on Eko Disco officials to come fix the cable before it will kill someone in the community. They did not come until two lives were consumed. We want government to come to our aid in the community.

Ministerial Screening: “Ignore Petitions Against Me” – Amaechi Writes Saraki.

amaechi

It’s not new to ears that former Governor of Rivers State, Mr. Rotimi Amaechi‘s nomination as minister has attracted several petitions.

The politician has now written three letters on why the Senate should not stop his screening as a ministerial nominee.

According to The Nation, he said the allegations against him were not only false but also made malafide with the intent to “solely irritate, embarrass and tarnish his hard-earned reputation.”

He said he should be presumed innocent until the contrary is proved.

He said since there are pending cases at the Federal High Court, Abuja and the Court of Appeal, any action by the Senate will be subjudice.

READ ALSO: Saraki Unveils Ministerial List – Lai Mohammed, Fashola, Ngige, Amaechi Makes List

He asked the Senate to preserve its Standing Order which bars it from dabbling in any matter pending before a court.

Amaechi broke his silence in three separate letters to the President of the Senate, Dr. Bukola Saraki, and Senate Committee on Ethics, Privileges and Public Petitions.

The letters were written by his solicitor, Edward E. Pepple.

In the letters, he asked the Senate to “discard” the petition against him by the Integrity Group and the report of the Justice G. G. Omereji Judicial Commission of Inquiry.

Citing the case of ex-Vice President Atiku Abubakar, Amaechi said the Supreme Court had emphasized that an indictment by the Judicial Commission of Inquiry or Administrative Panel is not an “indictment” or sufficient for the purpose of preventing a person from holding a public office.

The October 12 letter to Saraki (EW/GC/CRA/15/012) reads in part:

:“ It has informally come to our client’s attention that the Judicial Commission of Inquiry set up by the Governor of Rivers State, Chief/Barr. Nyesom Ezenwo Wike, to judicially investigate our client and probe into some transactions of the Rivers State Government undertaken during the tenure of our client has purportedly come up with a report based on which the Governor and Government of Rivers State have supposedly also issued a White Paper, wherein it has proposed that certain steps and actions should be taken against our client.

“Of course, this is clearly in defiance of the pending suit at the Court of Appeal on the issue.

“It is important to mention that our client only became aware of this situation through a news bulletin aired on both the Channels Television and the Independent African Television (AIT). Apart from those, no other form of communication has been sent to our client, whether directly or indirectly.

“As had been mentioned in our earlier letters, our client is challenging the competence and validity of the Judicial Commission of Inquiry and its powers to make any valid or binding decision or pronouncement as it relates to him.

Lol, so the story I heard about doctors having horrible handwriting is that they do not actually have bad handwriting, but they make it seem so… So that patients won’t abuse drugs and all.

It’s said though, that, it’s only a pharmacist who can read a doctor’s handwriting. Lol.

So an international doctor’s handwriting has left his patient amused after an image of his writings was shared on networking site, Imgur.

In a post titled: ” Why your prescription isn’t ready in 15 minutes “.

While some find it hard to read a single thing, others say it isn’t written in English.

Words like “Fluticasone 0.05% crm #15” were able to be culled. Can you read it? Me I can see “lunch” at the end.
