Aftermath of a Deadly Fight Between Two Cult Members Over a Girl in Sapele(See Graphic Photos)

 Two members of a cult group in Sapele, Delta State on Tuesday, March 29th engaged in a deadly fight over a girl.

 The incident occurred after one of the men identified as Raraye allegedly started hitting on the girlfriend of his fellow cult member, known as Patrick a.k.a 'Bagger (Vikkins).

According to Ono Okeh, Patrick (pictured above) had repeatedly warned Raraye to stay away from his girlfriend, a warning he chose to ignore. On that fateful day, the two confronted each other with weapons and a fight ensued. Patrick hacked Raraye on the back with a machete. When the wounded man attempted to flee, Patrick cut his hand almost chopping it off.

Raraye (pictured on the hospital bed) is presently receiving treatment in a hospital but there is a possibility he might lose his hand. See photos below... Warning... *very graphic*

Suicide Bomber Held in Cameroon Not Missing Chibok Schoolgirl - Chibok Parents Claim

 The Murtala Muhammed Foundation charged with the responsibility of identifying the female suicide bomber arrested in Cameroon who claimed she was one of the missing Chibok girls, has released a statement stating that leaders of the Chibok Parents association have refuted the claims.

Some of the authorised representatives of the community who were allowed to see photos of the girl, confirmed she is not among the girls kidnapped by Boko Haram from the Government Girls Secondary school on April 14th 2014. The statement reads;

"On Wednesday, March 30, three authorised representatives of the parents of the 219 missing Chibok girls arrived the Murtala Muhammed Foundation (MMF) offices from Chibok Local Government Area of Borno State to view photos of the girl claiming to be one of the 219 missing students kidnapped by Boko Haram.

 Mr. Yakubu Nkeki, chairman, Lawan Zana secretary, Mrs. Yana Galang women leader of the Chibok Girls Movement, all of whose children are amongst the kidnapped 219 Chibok girls were upon their arrival shown photos of the girl who was arrested along with another woman on Friday March 25th carrying explosives in Limani, Cameroon. A set of photographs had been sent to the MMF on the evening of Monday 28th of March by Garba Shehu, Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity.

 A more recent batch of photos, taken at 2pm on Tuesday 29th of March was sent to the MMF by Ambassador Hadiza Mustafa, Nigeria’s High Commissioner to Cameroon. ‎The earlier set of photos showed the girl partially clothed and squatting on the sandy floor within a low cement wall enclosure, which was surrounded by soldiers and some civilians. In that same batch, the woman was being carried in the arms of a soldier, with her face swollen and plaster covering different parts of her body. She was also partially clothed. In the more recent photos, however, the girl was fully clothed, standing against a wall and looking into the camera. The woman was also standing straight beside what appeared to be a hospital bed, she was fully-clothed.

 Her face still appeared slightly swollen with dressing on her forehead. The Nigerian government by Tuesday afternoon had already informed the MMF that the girl has clearly identified herself as Maryam Alhaji Wakeel, 12 years old, originally from Maiduguri but abducted from Bama when the town was overrun by Boko Haram a year ago. The woman has identified herself as Aishatu Usman, a 35-year-old mother of two children. However the identification process was still carried out to lay to rest any claims that the girl is one of the 219 girls kidnapped from their school in Chibok on April 14th 2014. Mr. Nkeki, Mallam Zana and Mrs. Galang have confirmed that the girl and the woman do not fit the description of any of the missing daughters from Chibok. We have also made arrangements for other stakeholders to view the photos at the MMF office in Abuja as we are yet to ascertain how the girl came to describe herself as one of the missing Chibok girls.

 The identity of the girl notwithstanding, the MMF has informed the Nigerian government of its willingness to continue to pursue the matter, and is willing to provide the captured girl and woman any support they may require. These girls and women are merely victims, and must be treated as such by the society. They have already undergone grave violence at the hands of their Boko Haram captors. We must ensure that they are not made to undergo additional violence at the hands of their compatriots. Nigerian government officials have informed the MMF that both Maryam Alhaji Wakeel and Aishatu Usman have been handed over to the Nigerian military this evening and are currently on their way back to Nigeria.”

'He Was a Cruel & Jobless Addict, Our Marriage Was Hell'- EgyptAir Hijacker's Ex wife Reveals

 The EgyptAir plane Hijacker's ex-wife, has revealed that there is no love story in their marriage. She branded him a jobless drug addict and claimed their five years marriage was a 'living hell'

Seif Eldin Mustafa on Tuesday forced a passenger jet to redirect to Cyprus after he wore a fake suicide vest and threatened to blow himself up.

In her first interview, Marina has revealed that he was a violent unemployed bully who was cruel to her and their four children.

She added 'the world has been painted a picture of a man who hijacked a plane for love'  but says it could not be further from the truth.

'Most of the media painted a picture of a romantic situation in which a man was trying to reach out to his estranged wife,' she told Cypriot newspaper Phileleftheros.

'But that couldn't be further from the truth and they would have a different opinion if they knew what he was really like.

'It was a marriage of hell with threats, beatings, torture and fear. He was a man who knew how to inflict fear and to create misery around him. He was unbalanced and a scary person.'

Marina, 51, met Mustafa in 1983, when she was 18 years old, and married him two years later.

During their seven years together the couple had three daughters and a son, but Ms Paraschou still describes them as the 'darkest chapter in my life'.

She says the couple lived with her parents on Cyprus during their marriage, but unemployed Mustafa never provided financially to the family. 

The couple divorced in 1990 and Mustafa left Cyprus for Egypt in 1994 where he was jailed for forgery and fraud.

He broke out of prison in 2011 amid the chaos during the uprising against Egyptian president Muhammad Hosni El Sayed Mubarak. 

'One in Every Four Nigerian is Mad' - Doctor Says

 According to the Medical Director, Synapse Services Resource Centre, Dr. Vincent Udenze, one in every four Nigerian is living with one form of mental disorder or another.

Udenze further noted that one in seven persons would suffer a serious episode of mental illness in their lifetime.

Udenze made this prognosis at the inauguration of the centre at Lekki, Lagos.

According to the mental health specialist, Nigerians suffer the consequences of mental health problems due to the acute shortage of registered health facilities and the stigma attached to the condition.

Udenze added, “One in every four Nigerian has one form of mental disorder and one in every seven will suffer serious mental health problems. This is a conservative estimate, considering that many Nigerians with mental challenges do not seek help because they do not want people to stigmatise them and their families.”

He also lamented that the majority of the health care institutions in the country paid less attention to mental illness cases.

He said, “Look around, we have got over 50 government hospitals looking after pregnant women. We have thousands of private hospitals and maternal homes for women and children. How many mental health facilities are in Lagos with a population of over 18 million people? They are very few.

“If you provide the environment, facility and make people aware that it exists, you will be surprised at the response you are going to get. The truth is that the government will never be able to do enough in tackling the menace of mental health because it does not have enough resources for that.

“While the government is doing what it can, the private sector, non-governmental organisations, and individuals must come together to address stigma and provide facilities for those who need treatment before they fall into the wrong hands.”

To make a difference, Udenze said the centre would establish more centres in the state, just as its foundation would provide free treatment for indigent patients.

Women Who Get illegal Aborti*ns Should be 'Punished' - Donald Trump Says

 Women who have illegal aborti*ns should be punished, Donald Trump said yesterday, Wednesday, March 30th.

 The Republican presidential frontrunner made the comments during a heated exchange at a town-hall event in Wisconsin over whether aborti*n should be banned.

 He told US broadcaster MSNBC's Chris Matthews: "There has to be some form of punishment." after calling for a ban on the procedure.

Pressed by the journalist to explain further, he responded: "I haven't determined what the punishment should be." Mr Trump said he was "pro-life with three exceptions", but did not provide details as to what they were.

Democratic frontrunner and his possible White House rival Hillary Clinton was quick to react on Twitter, branding his remarks "horrific" "Just when you thought it couldn't get worse. Horrific and telling." Clinton said.

A statement issued later by Mr Trump's campaign said the aborti*n issue should be left to individual US states to determine.

Bernie Sanders called it "shameful" and even major pro-life groups spoke out strongly against punishing women who have aborti*ns.

Even Trump's conservative rival Ted Cruz, an evangelican Texas senator, bashed him, accusing the real estate mogul of saying "anything just to get attention".

Ohio Governor John Kasich, the third runner in the Republican race for the White House, also weighed in saying "Of course women shouldn't be punished," he told MSNBC.

Women's health provider Planned Parenthood, which conservatives oppose for its abortion practices, said Trump "is now inciting violence against women for making a decision that's theirs to make."

Trump later retracted what he said and stated that it's the doctors who perform the aborti*ns that should be punished not the women.

Did Governor El-Rufai Really Slap His Deputy?

 Kaduna State Governor, Nasir el-Rufai, on Tuesday night cleared the air on a lingering controversy, saying he never slapped his deputy, Barnabas Bala, whom he described as a friend of 40 years.

 El-Rufai made the clarification in Kaduna while reacting to an alleged fight between him and Bala.

The friendship of the governor and Bala dated back to their undergraduate days at the Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, where the former graduated with a first-class degree in Quantity Survey while the latter bagged a first-class degree in Architecture.

El-Rufai said he had known Bala since 1976 at the university and there was no grouse between them.

Political reports had claimed that the governor and his deputy were at loggerheads over plans by governor El-Rufai to sack some top civil servants in the state.

In an interactive session with some journalists in Kaduna, El-Rufai simply laughed over the allegations, he added that the rumour mongers were not intelligent enough.

His words: “I have known Bala since 1976. I never had an argument with him; I respect his opinions and each time I travelled out of the country, I made him the acting governor. He signs documents on my behalf.

“We chair executive council meetings together. We operate like partners, and now people want to create enmity between us. I am of age, I can’t descend so low. This rumour is completely false; it is created to cause division. We never discussed the retrenchment of workers in the state as claimed by the rumour mongers.

“I have never slapped anyone in my life. I have never argued with Bala. I don’t slap people, I fight people with my mouth.”
