A Bayelsa-based farmer has taken to social media to express his sorrow after his poultry farm was ruined by the ravaging flood in the state.

Some of the most affected states include Kogi, Anambra, Rivers, Benue, Yobe, Delta, Cross River and Bayelsa.

The farmer, who lives in Bayelsa state, took to Twitter to share the state of his poultry farm after it was submerged by floodwaters, leaving almost all his birds dead.

In the video the troubled farmer shared on the micro-blogging platform, hundreds of chickens were seen lying on the floor, dead.

Sharing the video, he revealed the incident has left him totally depressed.

The farmer, who revealed he has lost over three thousand birds, put the remaining live birds up for sale at a paltry price of 500 naira.

“This is my farm in Bayelsa State. The state has been cut off. No way to bring in feeds, nor medics. We are fighting both flood and birdflu at the same time. As at yesterday, I lost 3, 897 birds. My heart is failing me. Totally depressed”, he wrote.

“I’ve had coitus with a few ghosts” – Actress Joy Behar reveals

American media personality and actress, Joy Behar, has claimed that she’s had sexual relations with ghosts.

The 80-year-old thespian made this claim on “The View”, while panelists were discussing footage of a woman who claimed to have “sexual ghosts” in her home.

Speaking on the show, Behar asserted that she’s had intercourse with a few ghosts.

“If you have sex with a ghost, can you get pregnant?”, American television host, Sara Haines asked.

“I’ve had sex with a few ghosts and never got pregnant,” Behar replied, to the surprise of everyone.

In other news, a Nigerian Medical doctor, Dr. Rommel took to his Instagram to query what women abroad did for their husbands to make them more romantic and loving because Nigerian men at home do not show love like that.

The doctor begged Nigerian women in the diaspora to share whatever special secret they gave their men so men here would also show love like that to their partners.

“Nigerian men are selectively romantic; hear me out before you argue with your keyboard. Nigerian men in the diaspora and the ones in Nigeria are two different breeds. The Naija men abroad especially in America are very romantic and supportive of their wives. They clean, cook, take care of the kids, come and see them at Walmart and other grocery stores shopping. Their counterparts in Nigeria have a different story, they do not lift a finger at home, their wives have to do all the house chores or get domestic staff to help out.

Is it that the women in the diaspora are more romantic, thus making the men more supportive and loving, or is it the weather, or the abroad culture, or the assumption that a man is under the influence of his wife’s “jazz” (voodoo) if he helps round the house?”, he wrote.

“God is responsible for the flood in Nigeria not the opening of Cameroon’s Lagdo dam” – Minister of water resources, Suleiman Adamu.

Suleiman Adamu, the minister of water resources, has stated that rainfall, not Cameroon’s Lagdo dam, causes 80 percent of Nigeria’s floods.

“All these stories I’ve been seeing on social media, I just laugh because they are misleading,” Adamu stated in Abuja on Wednesday, October 19.

“The contribution of the Lagdo dam to flooding in this country is only one percent. Sometimes they release the water without notice and when they do that, it has an impact on communities downstream but it is not the main reason we have floods in this country — 80 percent of the floods in this country is water that we are blessed with from God from the sky.

This year’s flood, I can assure you, we cannot blame it on Cameroon to be sincere. We’ll continue to have floods on the river Niger and Benue basins. We signed the MOU with the Cameroonian authorities but since then, every year, it is the Nigeria Hydrological Services Agency (NIHSA) that calls them ‘what is your level in Lagdo?’

Even this one when he called them, I was communicating with the DG NIHSA, I said ‘what’s happening in Cameroon?’ He said he has been calling them and they said they have not released any water but they said they will inform us. Finally, they said they will inform us tomorrow, they didn’t inform us, they informed us 24 hours after they had released the water.

They did the same thing two years ago, I wrote to the minister of foreign affairs and Nigeria had to write a protest letter to the Cameroonian authorities that they did not inform us.

It was after our rains had gone down, suddenly we saw floods in Adamawa area and we were asking them. For two weeks they were denying that they had opened the reservoir. Of course, it didn’t go to the confluence, it was limited to the areas of Adamawa state and Taraba. Because like I said, the contribution to the flood by Lagdo dam is not so high.” he said.

Man arrested for allegedly defiling his two underaged daughters in Anambra

Man arrested

A Nigerian man, Uchenna Nwobi, has been arrested by operatives of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) for allegedly defiling his two biological daughters, aged 3 and 5.

The suspect, who resides in Abagana, Njikoka LGA of Anambra state, was picked up on Wednesday, October 19, after a concerned resident reported him to the Anambra State Ministry For Women and Social Welfare.

Following the complaint, the Commissioner for Women and Social Welfare, Hon. Ify Obinabo, through her Sexual and Gender Based Violence Response team, swung into action and briefed NSCDC operatives who commenced investigation immediately.

During the course of the investigation, the suspect was arrested, and the children were rescued and taken to a hospital for examination.

They were first taken to Ntasi Centre in Enugwu-Ukwu where a doctor confirmed that they were defiled. It is reported that fresh wounds and swelling were on their private parts.

The children also confirmed that they were molested by their father and pleaded not to return to him for fear of being punished.

It was gathered that the suspect started abusing his underage daughters in 2020 after he sent his wife packing over a marital dispute.

Meanwhile, Nwobi, who claims to be innocent, has been detained for child molestation and abuse, and would be charged to court after investigation.

In a very tragic event, four men have lost their lives in a car accident that occurred while they were driving to a nightclub in Lagos on Wednesday, October 19.

He initially refused to return home and said he would see her when he returns from the club, but his friends urged him to go home. He alighted from the car and the other guys continued the ride to the club.

Sadly, the four guys were involved in a horror car crash which claimed their lives.

A Twitter user who relayed the morbid incident, @khanofkhans11_, wrote,

“Group of 5 Niggas wanted to go to club last night, one of them halted from the car cos his mom called him to come see her urgently. He said he will see her when he comes back, his friends had to force him to go see her. The four friends died in a fatal car accident overnight. 😔
