March 10th, 2017




Acting President, Yemi Osinbajo, has ordered the Inspector General of Police, Ibrahim Idris to “promptly investigate and ensure the prosecution of culprits in the recent communal clashes in Ile-Ife.”
Recall that an inter-ethnic clash which broke out at Sabo area of Ile-Ife, Osun State on Tuesday night led to the death of five people.

The violence which was said to have started, following a rift between a Hausa man and a Yoruba woman continued till Wednesday morning.

In a statement by the Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Laolu Akande and sent to DAILY POST, Osinbajo condoled with those who lost their loved ones in the violence and commiserates with the people, and government of State of Osun.

He prayed that the Almighty God will comfort those who have become mourners in such tragic circumstances.

Osinbajo calls on all the different groups of people in “Ile-Ife to live in harmony, remain calm and keep the peace while police investigation is in progress, assuring that perpetrators of the acts of violence will be identified and brought to book according to law.”

While strongly condemning the killings and other acts of violence that have been perpetuated in the town, Osinbajo emphasises that, “resorting to acts of violence as a form of redress over grievances by any group of people anywhere in the country will not be tolerated or condoned by the Federal Government.”

“Such unlawful pursuit of redress and despicable expression of grievances shall be firmly punished in line with extant laws,” he warned.

For more than five decades, the black-and-white image of Irene Garza has haunted the town of McAllen, Tex., her story painfully recounted again and again. She was a 25-year-old dark-haired former beauty queen, her high school's first Latina drum majorette, the first in her family to graduate from college. She was named Miss All South Texas Sweetheart, and worked as a teacher for disadvantaged children.   But at the center of Garza's life was her Catholic faith. In a letter to a friend in April 1960, she wrote about how she was no longer afraid of death. "You see, I've been going to communion and Mass daily and you can't imagine the courage and faith and happiness it has given me," she wrote in the letter, according to Texas Monthly.   And so when Holy Week came, the most sacred time of year for Catholics, Garza decided to go to confession. On the eve of Easter, she drove to the Sacred Heart Catholic Church in McAllen.   She never came h...

The killings occurred at Atiba area of Odogbolu Local Government Area.

My Wife is Demonic, Forces Me to Give Her ‘Blow Job’ During Her Menstrual Period – Man Reveals A man identified as Idongesit Etuk, on Tuesday sought the dissolution of his 12-year-old marriage at a Customary Court in Agege, Lagos State after he accused his wife, Blessing, of being demonic.

Speaking before the president of the court, Mr. Phillips Williams, Etuk said, “My wife is demonic. For several years, she will insist that we have sex when she is having her monthly flow. “I didn’t have issues with that at first because she is my wife and I vowed to love her but things got out of hand when she will always insist that I give her a blow job. “Initially, I did not take her serious but she threatened to divorce me and take out two children along with her, if I don’t give her what she asks for.

EVANS WANTS TO DIE,SAYS HUMILIATION IS TOO MUCH AND HOPE GOVERNMENT TAKES CARE OF HIS FAMILY

By

Notorious kidnap kingpin, Chukwudubem Onwuamadike, aka, Evans, who was arrested last Saturday at his Magodo Estate mansion, Lagos, has, amidst tears, cried out that he is being humiliated beyond limits, noting that he preferred dying than to continue living in pains. The 36-year-old suspect, who is a native of Akamili in Umudim Quarters, Nnewi, Anambra State, said he knew the Police would not treat him fairly when he was caught, given the kind of atrocities he had committed over the years. It was based on this assumption that he told Vanguard newspapers that he made up his mind to end his life the moment the Police gained access to his house. He stated that the Police officer, who pursued him as he ran into his house when he sighted them at his gate, prevented him from completing his mission. Regretting that he was not able to end his life that moment, he looked at this reporter and asked: "What am I living for? When I saw the policemen dash towards me I ran inside. I was not runn...

THE INVINCIBLE WOUNDS OF SYRIA'S CHILDREN

By
March 14th,2017 The physical devastation left by the Syrian war is tangible. But a less visible, more insidious damage is hurting the country's most vulnerable. Save the Children's 'Invisible Wounds' report found that Syria's children are suffering from a condition called 'toxic stress' , due to living in an almost constant state of fear and terror. In order to visualize the invisible, the NGO commissioned photographer Nick Ballon and conceptual artist Alma Haser to create a series of animated portraits and short videos. Ballon's thoughtful photos combined with Haser's paper manipulation techniques – folding, crumpling, ripping and origami – attempt to show the intense psychological pain these children suffer. Ballon shot the portraits of the refugee children near the Turkish-Syrian border. He got to know them at their orphanage, in a place where they felt comfortable, but shot the portraits on the streets. "The lighting was the key element,...

Prince Harry's Engagement To Meghan Markle Barely breaking the rules: Meghan Markle didn't wear pantyhose to her engagement announcement with Prince Harry on Monday. She hasn't even married her prince yet and Meghan Markle has already committed her first royal fashion faux pas — she went bare-legged in public! The 36-year-old "Suits" star showed up sans pantyhose to her engagement announcement with Prince Harry on Monday, and apparently that's a something of a royal no-no, reports The Cut. While the rule isn't exactly set in stone in some strict royal-family style book, enthusiasts of the monarchy note that Queen Elizabeth herself has worn pantyhose in public for the past, oh, 91 years. Kate Middleton, too, famously wears pantyhose. In fact, many credit the stylish duchess, who usually wears glossy, sheer tights in public, with bringing hose back in vogue for younger Brits. 10 Royal Kisses Caught on Camera Gallery courtesy of T...
