A video of the tragic moment a deacon at Evangelical Church Winning All (ECWA), Onikoko, Abeokuta, Ogun State, suddenly slumped and died while preaching against ritual killing has surfaced online.
It was gathered that the incident happened on Sunday, April 3, when the deacon simply identified as Ogunnusi, was preaching during a service.
In the video, Ogunnusi was preaching in Yoruba and is quoted as saying, “The money you make through unlawful means, killing people, sucking human blood; when death comes, it will belong to another person.”
The interpreter was still trying to interpret his words in English when Ogunnusi said to be the Baale of Onikoko, a community around Panseke area of Ogun state, suddenly collapsed.
According to Daily Trust, he was rushed to the Federal Medical Centre, Idi-Aba, Abeokuta, where he was pronounced dead.
An eyewitness who spoke with the publication said,
“The man was not the pastor of that church, he was just an elder. He was the Baale of Onikoko. But he was the one that delivered the sermon on Sunday.
“He was talking about death and people who make money by killing other people. All of a sudden, he collapsed. He was rushed to the FMC, but he died. We don’t know what happened. I was very scared. Everything was disrupted. We just shared the grace and went home.”
It’s unclear if the deacon had an underlying health condition before his sudden death but his body has been deposited in a morgue

A young Nigerian man, Chibuike Nwachukwu, has cried out for justice after his wife, Vivian, died during childbirth at a medical center in the Ago Palace Way area of Okota, Lagos State.
According to Punch, Chibuike, a telecommunications engineer, has accused the hospital’s management of negligence, which he claims contributed to his wife’s death.
The grieving husband said his now-deceased wife started her antenatal in Anambra State, but later continued the session at the hospital when she came to Lagos. He said his wife was attending antenatal at the hospital until March 27 when she was admitted to be delivered of the baby.
In his word,
“On Sunday, March 27, 2022, when she was admitted for delivery, we were chatting when she said she had been induced and that she would soon give birth. So, when she wasn’t picking up my calls around 4pm, I called my sister to give her the phone but she said she was in the labour room.
Around 5pm, I got the same responses. I waited for hours till 1am when my sister suddenly called and gave the phone to the doctor who sought my permission to do CS on my wife. They were initially trying to make her push out the baby but she became weak, and after hours of attempts, they called for CS, so I agreed.
I also informed her family and they supported and prayed. Around 2am, my sister called again and said they needed two pints of blood. The hospital had no ambulance or vehicle to get it. I had to book an Uber online and the driver took my sister to the Isolo General Hospital to buy two pints of blood. Later, my sister called again and said I should approve as they said they wanted to cut off my wife’s womb.
I was shocked; a marriage of 10 months and they are saying they want to cut off her womb? I told her to hold on. I quickly infor/med her elder brother, and we said they should not remove her womb.”
Chibuike claimed that the surgeon that operated on his wife was hired and not the resident surgeon, adding that when he left, they had to call him back when Vivian’s condition became critical.
So, around 3.30am, my sister called again that they needed another three pints of blood and I quickly gave them money and they went to purchase it. They later said the blood was no longer entering her body, and she was placed on oxygen.
There is usually no movement on Monday in Enugu, but I risked it all, got a flight around 11.40am and flew down to Lagos. When I got to the hospital, I ran to the operation room and met my wife’s corpse there. I asked the doctor what happened and was told she was gone already.
I was crying. People who lived around the hospital saw my wife writhing in pain on the premises of the hospital before she died. But the father of the owner of the hospital kept demanding N500,000 for bills. I was devastated that afternoon.”
Chibuike further alleged that the hospital was not remorseful about the circumstances surrounding his wife’s death, and when an argument bordering on payment ensued, he reported to the Ago Police Station.
When contacted a representative of Medville Global Health Centre, Chinasa Cyril, said Vivian’s death was caused by uterine atrophy.
“On Sunday, March 27, around 1pm, she (Vivian) came in and was feeling the normal labour signs. The labour was progressive up until there was an obstruction and she couldn’t deliver. At first, it was suggested that the family goes for CS, which they initially rejected.
After much persuasion, they agreed to it and we called our surgeon to perform the CS on her. After that, she was closed up and everything was confirmed fine, but the child had some difficulties when he was being brought out.
Almost an hour was spent resuscitating the child. Both mother and child were placed on oxygen. So, when she was being prepared to be taken to the ward after the CS, it was observed that she was bleeding from her vaginal and when it was checked to see if there was laceration, there was none. They tried cleaning her up as much as possible and re-invited the surgeon, who asked them to do some other checks to confirm where the bleeding was coming from, but they found none outwardly.”
Cyril said the surgeon returned to the hospital, opened her up again and noticed that the uterus was not contracted, adding that he said that was the source of the bleeding and suggested that it should be removed immediately.
“He wanted to do it but needed the consent of her husband and the sister-in-law, who was with her. They were hesitant about it over fears that this was her first child.
So, another suggestion came out about ligating the tubes taking blood to the blood vessel so that the bleeding would stop and when that was done, she was examined and there was no longer bleeding.
After some time, it was noticed that while she was on oxygen, her heart rate and pulse started dropping and they gave her other things to try to resuscitate her, to no avail. So, what caused it was uterine atrophy.’

One day he told me that there was someone he thought would be a great fit for me. He described Jude and while I liked what I heard, I specifically said that dating a rapper was “not my ministry” 😊.
I had obviously heard of Jude and liked his music, and knew him to be handsome, highly intelligent and driven, but that was it. At the same time, Jude had noticed me and started following me on social media. I remember thinking “hmmmm?!?!” but passed it up to my INCREDIBLE social media charm and the quality of my thought-provoking Instagram content 😉. To carry on our technology-enabled connection, Jude would find cute ways to support me, connect with me, share funny stories, or write me songs on the spot when I was down. That’s how love entered and will never leave o!!!!

In an interview on Asaase Radio‘s Accra-Lagos-Joburg show, when asked about her past relationship and experience with Ghanaian men, the screen diva said she prefers Nigerian men because they know how to care for their women.
In her words,
“Honestly, I love Nigerian men more because they know how to take care of their women, I can’t say the same for Ghanaian men. When a Nigerian man is lying to you, the way he will come afterwards to apologise you will easily forgive him, but a Ghanaian man will lie and even insult you on top of it all. So, I’m not dealing with any more Ghanaian men”.

“Don’t you see my home? Don’t you see my husband? Don’t you see the back of my children? How is that one private? The children’s face is that what you are trying to say? No. When they are old enough, they should show their faces if they want to. But for now, I don’t want them to show their faces. I want them to have their lives and enjoy it.
“Their dad and I are already in the public eye. They are children, don’t forget. They are children . They are vulnerable so you have to just keep them away, keep them safe. Let them go to school, let them enjoy their lives without “Ah!” that’s Jenifa’s son. That’s JJC’s son. Ah see his leg, see his face” Leave them private!” She said.

A police inspector, identified as Michael Ogunlade, has reportedly died during a sex romp with his secret lover at a hotel in Ibadan, Oyo state.
According to a source at the hotel, the 47-year-old man died around 3PM on Sunday, April 3, shortly after he paid for a short-time with his lover at a hotel situated at Oke-Ado area of Ibadan.
“They met me at the staircase but being one of the workers, I cannot be looking at their faces, so I just ignored them. A few minutes later, the woman rushed down and started crying, saying the man was unconscious.
“We quickly informed the police at Iyaganku Police Division and they came around quickly but before they would take him to a nearby hospital, he had given up the ghost.”
While some people claim he died due to the energy booster he ingested to have sex with the woman, others claim he died as a result of the thunderbolt laced on the woman by another man.
However, one of the hotel attendant said, “I don’t know her but the way she was talking after the incident, she had lost her husband in 2014. She even said the late officer was responsible for the payment of her children’s school fees for more than five years and other house chores.”
The woman was reportedly screaming in distress after the incident and was quoted as saying, “Where will I start again? He was my helper. My benefactor. He was like my husband because we saw him every Sunday. Apart from once a week. He responded to anything I asked him.”
Reality TV star, Yerins Abraham, has told Nigerians to stop ‘disrespecting’ singer Angelique Kidjo as she’s bigger than the bulk of their favorite celebrities.
The former Big Brother Naija housemate stated this in a post via his official Twitter handle on Monday morning, April 4.
The Beninise singer and songwriter, Angelique Kidjo’s ‘Mother Nature’ has won in the Best Global Music album category at the 64th Grammys awards. This will be her fifth Grammy Award, having been nominated 11 times.
Reacting to the win, Yerins tweeted, “Angelique Kidjo is bigger than your faves Stop disrespecting her!!!!! #GRAMMYs”.
This comes after comedian, Isokoboy in a video shared on his Instagram page, averred that Angelique didn’t deserve to win the Award over Nigerian superstar singer, Wizkid becaus he has more hit songs.
Paraphrasing his words, the comedian who wasn’t happy with Wizkid’s loss said, “What exactly does Angelique Kidjo sing that Grammy is always giving her awards wey Dem suppose give Wizkid. Them leave Made In Lagos wey Essence dey, Blessed dey wey feature Damian Marley, Piece of me dey, come go award Angelique.”
An online brawl between media personality, Daddy Freeze, and a follower took a rather interesting twist when the OAP offered the follower N50,000 as compensation for the fight.
Daddy Freeze had taken to his Instagram page to share a post about Wizkid but the follower left a derogatory remark in the comment section.
Responding, Freeze shared a picture of the follower and mocked his shoe to scorn.
“How do you come to someone’s page and call them silly when you are wearing silly shoes that were dyed and polished to match your legs?🤣🤣” he wrote.
The follower then slid into his DM to apologize for his comment and Freeze also apologized in return to the follower, and offered to send him N50k to buy new pair of shoes since they were the object of his mockery.
“I apologize for calling you out too. Since I insulted you over your shoes send your account details let me send you 50k so you can buy a new pair on me or just for you to chill this weekend”, he wrote.

An Islamic school teacher who raped 13 students at an Islamic boarding school in Indonesia, is now facing death penalty after his life sentence was upgraded.
The teacher, identified as Herry Wirawan, reportedly sexually groomed 13 female students, aged between 12-16 years, and impregnated 8 of his victims.
He was sentenced to life imprisonment in February but the case was appealed by the prosecutors, and he has now been punished with death penalty in a statement released on Monday on the Bandung High Court’s website..
Herry’s lawyer has refused to comment on the matter, and didn’t disclose if they would make an appeal on the death penalty.
Indonesian officials, including the country’s child protection minister, have also supported calls for Herry to face death penalty, although the nation’s human rights commission is vehemently against it.
Wirawan was brought into court in handcuffs and kept his head down as the judge gave his ruling. The judge added that restitution for the victims will be paid by the government.
Meanwhile, relatives of the victims have spoken on the controversial case.
Hidmat Dijaya, an uncle of one of the victims said, “This wound will never be healed as long as we live, maybe until we die. The pain we are feeling is indescribable. We don’t feel heard.
If the sentence is lenient like this, there will be more Islamic teachers who will abuse children.
We will let God as the highest judge punish him. We can only pray because those judges failed to represent our hurt and pain.’
