2 YEAR OLD BATHED WITH HOT WATER,STEP MOTHER IN DETENTION

By
KATSINA—A housewife, who allegedly bathed her two-year-old step-son, Ahmed, with hot water that led to his death in Yandaki town, Kaita Local Government Area of Katsina State, is currently in Police net.

It was gathered that the 21-year-old woman, Samsiya, was a rival to the boy's mother, who had packed out of their matrimonial home, leaving the boy with Samsiya and his father, Hayatu.

Police

Spokesperson, Katsina Police Command, DSP Gambo Isah, who confirmed the development to journalists in Katsina, said: "Samsiya has been picked up and arraigned before a competent court. The court will determine her innocence or otherwise."

Hospital sources revealed that Ahmed was referred to the hospital on September 5 from Yandaki Primary Health Care Centre, where he was initially admitted following injuries he sustained from hot water poured on him by his step-mother.

At the hospital

A source at the General Hospital said: "Ahmed suffered 90 degrees burns. The hot water affected him right from the head to toe. But our people tried their best before we lost him."

Ahmed died about three weeks ago at Katsina General Hospital after doctors tried unsuccessfully to save his life, which made the Police to step in and arrest Samsiya.

Docked, but…

It was gathered that Samsiya was arraigned before Senior Magistrate Falile Dikko, but that nothing could be done on her case as she appeared to be mentally unstable during trial.

DAILY DEVOTION FOR SEPTEMBER 14th 2017

By

  The Word For The Hour   A daily devotion for September 14th   From your friends at  RayStedman.org     Read: 2 Corinthians 5:18-6:2       That God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting men's sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation (2 Corinthians 5:19).       This is the message above all else, that the world needs to know. The problem with people everywhere is they have no security, no sense of acceptance, and no sense of worth. Most people have a poor self-image--even the blustering people who try to portray that they are self-sufficient. Deep inside they know their actions are a cover-up; they know they do not really feel as confident as they would lead others to believe. They are often scared and frustrated. They have to pretend that they are able to handle everything, but at the end of the day they know they did not. The reason people lack security is because they feel an alienation, an estrangement, from God. They li...

NORTH KOREAN IMAGES SUGGEST MISSILE/S MAY BE CAPABLE OF HITTING ANYWHERE IN AMERICA - U.S EXPERTS SAY

By

North Korea said the new missile reached an altitude of about 4,475 km (2,780 miles) - more than 10 times the height of the International Space Station - and flew 950 km (590 miles) during its 53-minute flight. Images released by North Korea on Thursday appeared to show it has succeeded in developing a missile capable of delivering a nuclear weapon anywhere in the United States and it could be only two or three tests away from being declared combat ready, U.S.-based experts said on Thursday. North Korea released dozens of photos and a video after Wednesday's launch of the new Hwasong-15 missile, and leader Kim Jong Un declared the country had "finally realized the great historic cause of completing the state nuclear force". U.S.-based experts, some of whom have been sceptical about past North Korean claims to have put all of the United States in range, said data from the latest test and the photos appeared to confirm North Korea has a missile of suffici...

MAN ENDED WIFE'S LIFE BECAUSE SHE WOULD NOT STOP LAUGHING AT HIM

By

A disgruntled husband killed his wife during their cruise-ship vacation because "she would not stop laughing at me," according to newly filed court papers. Kenneth Manzanares attacked his wife, Kristy, inside their cabin aboard the Emerald Princess cruise ship Tuesday night, according to an affidavit filed Wednesday in Alaska federal court. A witness told authorities that when he entered blood-splattered Cabin D726 — where the Manzanareses were staying — Kristy, 39, was lying on the floor in a pool of blood. "She would not stop laughing at me," Kenneth told the stunned witness, who then watched as the distraught hubby grabbed Kristy's body and tried to drag her toward the balcony. The witness got hold of the slain woman's ankles and pulled her back to the bloody cabin until cruise security arrived.   Kristy, identified only as K.M., "had a severe head wound" and Kenneth "had blood on his hands and clothing," court papers said. She was pro...

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...

North Korea first test launch of an intercontinental ballistic missile on July 4 prompted the Pentagon to assure it can defend the United States against the growing threat ©  North Korea on Friday carried out what appeared to be its second test this month of an intercontinental ballistic missile, doubling down on its threat to develop a nuclear strike capability against the US mainland. South Korean, US and Japanese monitors all detected the unusual late-night test, with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe saying the missile may have landed within Japan's maritime exclusive economic zone. "We assess that this missile was an intercontinental ballistic missile," Pentagon spokesman Navy Captain Jeff Davis said, adding that the projectile travelled about 1,000 kilometers (620 miles) before splashing down in the Sea of Japan. However, the Russian military said the launch appeared to be a "medium-range" ballistic missile. The launch came a day after North Korea celebra...
