Corporal shoots ASP dead during argument at station

2013-09-06T05:04:00.002-07:00

When on April 6, 2013, Jane and Olusoji Elegbede got married in Lagos State, their joy knew no bounds.

Although Olusoji was a policeman serving in Yobe State, which is fraught with security challenges, Jane did not mind living there with him.

Their plan was to settle down, have children and grow old together.

Unfortunately, this was not to be as Olusoji, an Assistant Superintendent of Police, was gunned down by a police corporal in Gashua Bade Local Government, Yobe State, while on duty less than five months after their wedding.

Olusoji’s widow, who spoke while fighting back tears, told PUNCH Metro that she was still in shock over the incident.

Narrating what led to her 39-year-old husband’s killing, Jane said her husband, who was the Administration Officer at Gashua Police Division, was killed by a 53-year-old corporal, Andrew Bitus.

Goodnight Pain. "thieves, thieves" he screamed, it was almost funny. Not until more voices joined the chorus as they screamed and shouted on us. We could have ran at least to save our lives, but our intentions were genuine and little did we know how the day would end. From a handful of young men shouting and throwing questions at us, it escalated to a crowd of angry mob. There was no way we could escape this one, so we calmed down. They pushed us around and then stripped us all. These men pulled us pants down, we were more than embarrassed, the whole community watched, I recognized few faces from the crowd. Obviously they were so afraid to say "stop" then the beating started, I wished it to be just a nightmare. But it was real, these men were determined. They dropped heavy rocks on our heads, they pounded our faces with large planks, blood covered our eyes, they matched and kicked us right on our bleeding nostrils, we couldn't breathe.

Moringa oleifera - The solution to Malnutrition.

2012-10-10T04:34:00.001-07:00

Moringa oleifera

LOWELL Fuglie and his wife, Caroline, help craft the pad of the Moringa tree. Thanks Fuglie's pioneer work on the Moringa oleifera, many people can now profit from it.

Malnutrition causes a great deal of human suffering and is associated with more than half of all deaths of children worldwide. Malnutrition severely impacts on the socio-economic development of a nation because a work force that is stunted both mentally and physically may have a reduced work capacity. The interaction of poverty, poor health and poor nutrition has a multiplier effect on the general welfare of the population and also contributes significantly towards keeping a population in a downward trend of poverty and nutritional insecurity. Thus nutrition plays an important role in the reproduction of poverty from one generation to the next.

Ideally, good nutrition is assured by a varied diet rich in meat, root, grain, fruit and vegetable foods. In reality, for a majority of the world’s population such variety in food is unaffordable or seasonally unavailable. If you have a poor diet it makes you less able to resist disease, so the diseases come more frequently and they last longer.

The solution to malnutrition?

“Penultimate Sunday, we went to church, Salvation Ministry; that is where he worshipped. We all went together for the second service. He stayed back for the remaining service. When he came back, he started preparing to go to school. I can still see him as I talk to you.

Woman delivers quadruplets at home.

2012-09-27T03:01:00.000-07:00

Who said it is impossible to deliver at home, Well testimonies have been shared in the past of successful child deliveries at home, though in this case FOUR children were delivered.

Wednesday, in Bauchi when the wife of a peasant farmer gave birth to quadruplets at home with help from a traditional midwife. The farmer’s wife, 25-year-old Murjinatu Yusuf’s babies, all girls, weighed between 0.6 and 1.2 kilogrammes. They live at Gajin Duguri village in Alkaleri Local Government Area of the state, while the lawmaker’s wife, Aishatu Abdul-kadir, 31, is from Kirfi Local Government Area.

Murjinatu’s husband, Salisu Yusuf, 30, is however, unhappy as his farmland was washed away during last week’s flood that swept across the state. Yusuf, now a father of nine, said he was at cross-roads on how to provide for his family.

He said: “I thank God for these four children that He has given me. Everybody is surprised because this is the first time that this is happening in my village and even in the state. I pray that God should keep them for us and bless them.

I need govt’s help—Husband
“I am pleading with the government to help me. Flood has swept off my farm from where I feed my family. I used to buy six to seven mudus of corn to feed my family per meal, but now I do not know how we will survive.”

SCIENCE: Acne-fighting virus discovered

2012-09-26T04:58:00.004-07:00

Phage virus that occurs naturally on human skin found to kill the bacteria that causes the distressing skin condition

Acne vulgaris (cystic acne or simply acne) is a common human skin disease, characterized by areas of skin with seborrhea (scaly red skin), comedones (blackheads and whiteheads), papules (pinheads), pustules(pimples), nodules (large papules) and possibly scarring.

Acne affects mostly skin with the densest population of sebaceous follicles; these areas include the face, the upper part of the chest, and the back. Severe acne isinflammatory, but acne can also manifest in noninflammatory forms. The lesions are caused by changes in pilosebaceous units, skin structures consisting of a hair follicle and its associated sebaceous gland, changes that require androgen stimulation (Wikipedia).

US researchers found that the phage virus can kill Propionibacterium acnes - the bacteria that cause acne.They discovered 11 different versions of the virus, which can be used to target the blocked pores that trigger the skin condition.

Hopefully, this discovery may be used as a therapy in the cure or control or prevention of Acne.

NORWAY: Lucky family wins national lottery three times

Good fortune and having children just seem to go together for Norwegian mother Hege Jeanette Oksnes.

Each time the 29-year old petrol station attendant from tiny Austevoll island off Norway's west coast gives birth, someone in her family wins the national lottery.

"This is completely insane... we don't even play the lottery that often," Oksnes said only days after the family collected 12.2 million crowns ($2.12 million) with their third lottery win in six years.

Oksnes, who serves hot dogs at a petrol station, gave birth to her first child in 2006 just one day after her father Leif won 4.2 million crowns on the national lottery.

I wont start by defining what a phone is or what it is used for, if you dont know then you are probably living in the 17th century.

That being said, every one enjoys introduction of new things, take for example, the purchase of a new car or the birth of a first child or achieving your first million, so was the joy experienced when the mobile phone was invented.
The first mobile telephone call was made on 17 June 1946 from a car in St. Louis, Missouri, USA, using the Bell System's Mobile Telephone Service. This was followed in 1956 by the world’s first partly automatic car phone system, Mobile System A (MTA) in Sweden. The MTA phones were composed of vacuum tubes and relays, and had a weight of 88.2 pounds (40 kg).

Martin Cooper, a Motorola researcher and executive, led the team that developed the first hand-held mobile telephone for use on a cellular network. Using a somewhat heavy portable handset, Cooper made the first call on a handheld mobile phone on April 3, 1973 to his rival, Dr. Joel S. Engel of Bell Labs.

More Electricity, Less Generator.

2012-09-25T02:32:00.000-07:00

The recent developments experienced in some states in Nigeria in regards to permanent or stable electricity supply has began to trouble some people, especially Importers and Distributors of generators.

In a recent interview with a generator merchant around Sango Ota, in Ogun state, he lamented that business has been too slow in recent times and wondered how he was going to carter for his family. Some have diverted into other businesses to at list secure a daily bread for the family.

A merchant even wished that the stable electricity be held for a while to enable him sell off all his generators and plan for other business in the nearest future.

The issue now is, are there others out there who wish that this stable electricity be reverted, indirectly wishing the country not to develop and taking us back to the days when we all scream, UP NEPA, at the emergence of power?, only God knows, but with time they will reveal themselves.
