Cow And Bull Get Married In Wedding Ceremony Costing $17,000

More than 5,000 villagers turned up to watch sacred cow Ganga and Prakash get hitched during the 1 million rupee Hindu ceremony held near Indore in Madya Pradesh.


A cow and a bull have been married off in a lavish Indian wedding - costing $17,000.
The nuptials were organised by Ganga's guardian, Gopal Patwari, to save the region's harvest from a 'natural disaster'.
He said: "Natural calamities like hailstorms and heavy rain occurred in nearby areas, destroying their crops.
  
To prevent this from happening to our villages we organised this wedding on the advice of Sadhus and holy men.
We have been told this will maintain peace in our village."
The wedding took two months to organise and invitations were sent to 10,000 residents of three closely connected villages, encouraging them to donate what they could spare.
Most are farmers growing wheat, barley, beans and cotton and so heavily depend on a good harvest to survive
 
So it was no surprise when more than 5,000 arrived in droves on Monday, April 14, to witness the no-expense-spared wedding - and few left disappointed.
CowGanga, who is considered sacred in the Hindu religion, arrived early dressed in a red custom-made bridal saree, jewels, dyes and a garland.
The bull Prakash arrived in a decorated bugee and draped in a multicoloured sherwani and orange turban.
 
The ceremony started with Mr Patwari giving Ganga away before a Sadhu performed all the traditional rituals.
This included Haldi, Ganesh Pooja, Mandap and Fera - where the couple are led around a sacred fire to affirm the marriage.
Mr Patwari looked overjoyed as they were finally announced a couple, sparking hours of feasting and dancing to a DJ.
He said: "I am happy. People around me are happy. Everyone is happy.
From here on we hope Ganga and Prakash lead a happy life together, just like a normal man and wife. 
 
They will go on and have children who will be happy and prosperous.
We expect Hindus of our village not to forget our holy cow and remember their religion.
The next generations especially should not forget. We want more weddings like this to take place in the future."

Photos : Man drags 3-tonne van with only his teeth, while walking on broken glass

Easy does it: Yang Dong, 20, pulled a three tonne van using a rope gripped between his teeth in Fuzhou, China

 Many people say their commute is like pulling teeth, but Yang Dong has more reason to complain than most.

The 20-year-old gripped a rope between his jaws and pulled a van laden with nine adults - while walking on broken glass.
Tough job: My Yang practiced for 10 years for the stunt, which involved a 13ft-long carpet of shattered bottles
  
Glutton for punishment: Mr Yang, 20, rubbed broken glass all over his body before the main event

He began practicing the stunt 10 years ago and now manages to pull a van weighing three tons down the street.

Meanwhile, the road under him was laden with a 13ft carpet of shattered beer bottles.
 

Mr Yang managed to pull off the feat last week in Fuzhou, a city of 7million people and the capital of south east China's Fujian province.

It is not clear yet if he has set a world record. Last year a man calling himself Montystar A. also pulled a three-tonne truck with his mouth in Haryana, India - though on that occasion broken glass was not involved.

'There’ll Be More Bomb Blasts And Jonathan Knows Those Responsible' - Primate Ayodele Prophecies

Founder, Inri Evangelical Spiritual Church, Oke Afa, Isolo, Lagos, Primate Ayodele whose predictions are said to always come to pass has revealed in a recent interview that there will be more bomb blasts in the nation.
 
He said since security intelligence does not recognise prophecy, bloodletting will continue.
According to him, there are moles in the Presidency, the Senate, House Of Representatives, SSS, Nigeria Police Force, the Army, Air Force and the Navy who give information to these terrorists and President Jonathan knows who they are but is afraid to stand up to them, adding that their next targets are shopping malls and markets.
He explained that with prayers, these problems can be solved but the nation's leaders have soiled their hands in evil acts and they derive pleasure in the shedding of blood.
He said, "If Jonathan comes back 100 times to rule this country, he won’t be able to solve the problems. He does not listen to the voice of God, flattery and deceit are good music to him. When you praise him he is always happy. Most of the pastors he goes to are afraid to tell him the truth. There is red signal all over the country."

On the confab, he said they will speak the mind of the people and make recommendations but the government will not listen.

On the political situation in the country, he said members of the All Progressives Congress, APC will defect to PDP before the 2015 elections and if APC refuses to give Muhammadu Buhari the ticket to contest the presidency he will quit, adding that there will be no elections in some state.
He called on all governors to pray so as not to lose four of their own to the cold hands of death.
On the abducted students, he said they will come out unhurt.
Speaking on Super Eagles and the world cup, he said they will try but they won’t get to the semi-final and Coach Stephen Keshi will quit coaching them after the World Cup.
On the missing Malaysian flight, he said the Malaysian government should be held responsible because they know its whereabouts.

Incredible: Dramatic moment killer about to be hanged is spared execution by his victim's parents

A murderer was spared from the hangman’s noose with seconds to spare - by the mother of his victim.

The killer, named only as Balal, had been blindfolded and bound with the noose placed round his neck when he was reprieved only seconds before he was due to be executed.

The parents of his 18-year-old victim Abdollah Hosseinzadeh jnr were set, under Sharia law,to take part in the hanging of the man who had killed him in a street knife-fight seven years ago.

The teenager’s brother and father were on the hangman’s spot and due to kick the chair out from under the the killer.
 

But at the very last second the dead boy’s mother had a change of heart and slapped him across the face before pulling the noose from round his neck.

Her husband Abolghani Hosseinzadeh, Snr., said his wife had a change of heart after their dead son appeared to her in a dream.

The couple had already lost a son aged 11 after he died in a motorbike crash.

Said Mr Hosseinzadeh: ” Three days ago, my wife saw my elder son in a dream telling her that they are in a good place and for her not to retaliate.”

Seconds after releasing Balal from his intended death spot, his own mother ran over to  his mother Mrs Hosseinzadeh and threw her arms round her as she wept in thanks for her incredible act of forgiveness.

Mr. Hosseinzadeh said he didn’t believe Balal meant to kill his son.

“Abdollah was offended after a row and kicked him. But Balal pulled a kitchen knife out of his sock and didn’t know how to handle a knife. He was naive.”

The mother of Abdolah Hosseinzadeh, just before she removed the noose around his neck with the help of her husband, sparing the life of her son's convicted murderer

 So far this year Iran has carried out at least 100 executions following the estimated 500 people were put to death last year.

The country is second only to China in the number of executions carried out.

At the weekend Iran said it executed 16 “rebels” in an immediate reprisal after gunmen killed at least 14 border guards near the border with Pakistan.

The two mothers of vicim and killer hug after execution called off

Deputy Interior Minister Ali Abdollahi said the guards were killed in an ambush set by Iranians who were “members of hostile groups”.

Iranian authorities said they hanged 16 “rebels” held at a prison in the Sistan-Baluchestan region.

But Iran halted the execution of 26-year-old interior designer Rayhaneh Jabbari on Tuesday.

She was due to hang for the stabbing to death seven years ago of a doctor who she claimed drugged her and tried to rape her.

Under Sharia Law rape is regarded as adultery.

US Warns Citizens In Nigeria Over Security During Easter Holidays

Following the frequency of attacks in Nigeria in the past few days, the United States Department of States has warned American citizens living in Nigeria over possible attacks that might be carried out by extremists in the Northern parts of the country during the Easter celebration that will begin tomorrow through Monday.
The warning came on Wednesday, barely 48 hours after the US issued a fresh travel alert for Nigeria as a result of the bomb blast that reportedly claimed several lives and properties in Nyayan area of Abuja.
“The Government of Nigeria has declared Friday, April 18, and Monday, April 21, public holidays, and given the history of bombing attacks on weekends (some associated with holidays), as well as the recent bombing in Nyanya on April 14, the US Mission in Nigeria urges all US citizens living and travelling in Nigeria to take extra precautions for your personal security and safety”, according to a statement obtained
by the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN).
The US advised all American citizens to be particularly vigilant around churches and other places of worship, locations where large crowds may gather, government facilities, and areas frequented by expatriates and foreign travelers during the upcoming holiday weekend.
In the warning, the US noted that security measures in Nigeria remained heightened due to threats posed by extremist groups, stressing that its citizens should expect additional police and military checkpoints, additional security, and possible road blocks throughout the country during the holiday weekend.
The Department, however, recommended that US citizens travelling to or residing in Nigeria enroll in the Department of State’s Smart Travelet Enrollment Programme (STEP) which it said would give Americans the latest security updates, and makes it easier for the U.S. embassy or nearest US consulate to contact them in case of an emergency.

13 Ways You Know You’re Dating A High-Quality Woman

1. She encourages you to pursue your goals, but she doesn’t micromanage. She trusts you to make the right decisions in your own life. She’s the cheerleader, not the coach.
2. She doesn’t try to make you jealous. She’s secure in her worth, and your ability to recognize how valuable she is. She doesn’t need to play games to “trick” you into seeing her her for what she is.
3. She doesn’t have a princess complex. She demands that you treat her with respect — but because she is a person you love, not because she is a woman and therefore magically entitled to something. Just as she would expect you to treat your friends and family with respect, she knows you wouldn’t treat her any other way. A high-quality woman wouldn’t be with a man who was disrespectful to the people he is close to in life.
4. She has a part of her life that doesn’t involve you. Friends, hobbies, career — whatever. She’s confident and independent enough to not need your involvement in everything she does.
5. You wouldn’t think twice about inviting her into different parts of your life: a barbecue with your college friends, a dinner with your parents, a fancy work party — she knows how to handle herself in different settings. She’s mature enough to make a good impression with your colleagues and wise enough to know letting loose with your friends and having fun doesn’t mean she’s immature.
6. She takes care of herself. This doesn’t mean she is perfect, it means she is always improving. You don’t have to tell her she needs to solve a problem in her life. She’s self-aware and sees what issues she has and is self-motivated enough to constantly be working to improve them. She needs a partner, not a dad.
7. When she is in a situation where she doesn’t know people, she introduces herself confidently. She doesn’t cling meekly to your side waiting for you to facilitate every social interaction.
8. A reasonable, non-hyper-conservative employer could look at her social media presence and hire her.
9. She isn’t shy about sex. If she doesn’t want to do something, she can articulate why instead of just saying “ew”. Your sex life with her isn’t a shady secret she feels uncomfortable talking about, it’s adult and healthy and you both work to keep the flame alive.
10. She has opinions more than “idk” and she can talk calmly and non-hyperbolically about them. If she disagrees with you, you can have a conversation about it without anyone raising their voice.
11. She would never joke with her friends or family (or worse, your friends or family) about how men are “stupid” or childish, or whatever “happy wife happy life” mantra you’ve heard women use to put down the partners they love.
12. She knows what she wants in life. She doesn’t change her values or goals to tailor fit the guy she is with.
13. You feel lucky to be dating her because you know she would never date anyone just to date them. She isn’t afraid to be single and she is self-sufficient. You know she is dating you because she’s attracted to you and she thinks that you will help each other grow to be even higher quality, together.

Nyaya Bomb Blast Victim :RIP Ashe Peters -Mami

Nyaya Bomb Blast Victim : Ashe Peters -Mami Never Arrived At Work By Alkasim Abdulkadir.
She is fondly called Mami, Ashe Peters was loved by everybody, and her employer Mrs. Zakari Imam described her as an exceptional human being. The Nyaya to Central area Abuja route had been her route over the years like several other thousands of civil servants and artisans who commute daily to work in Nigeria’s capital city of Abuja.
To get to work in time before the day’s tasks, to beat traffic as it is called -the commuters always left their abodes early, especially Ashe who had never been late in arriving at her office as Mrs Imam’s assistant “She was a honest, hard working and wonderful person loved by all her colleagues and anyone who had the privilege of knowing her” she averred.
However, on Monday April 14th 2014 she left home as dutiful as always but never showed up for work, she didn’t show up because she never got there. Alas, she didn’t get there because at exactly 6.30 am a vicious bomb explosion ripped through the Elrufai Bus Park at Nyaya, killing scores of people. Some of the dead and injured were taken to Nyaya, Asokoro General Hospitals and National Hospital. However, several more are still on the missing list, never to be seen again by their loved ones. Mami isn’t just a number, in a country already suffering from tragedy fatigue from the statistics of the dead, it has become imperative for us to remind ourselves that she was here and she was human too like the rest of us. Ashe Peters lived with her brother in Nyaya she was in her late twenties and would have added a year more on the 21st of April; she went missing exactly a week to her birthday.
The days have been passing by, there have been long tortuous and traumatic searches for her in all the hospitals and the hope of finding Mami is fast deeming. Her families and friends are slowly coming to terms with the fact they might never see her again. Therein lies the greatest tragedy of losing her, for Mrs. Zahra Bakari-Imam the tears have refused to stop “I went to sleep crying, woke up crying I am still crying”.
Like Mami, Eze the mechanic, Mohammed Babangida, Abu and several others we will never know, they were all human beings with dreams like the rest for us, their only crime remains waking up and catching a bus to earn a living. At the end of the day, this veil of insecurity covers us all, no one is immune to it…not numbers they were human.

RIP Ashe Peters -Mami - May God Almighty console those you left behind!

Can't stop crying......

Igboland To Get Islamic University

Igboland To Get Islamic University To Be Located In Afikpo, Ebonyi State.- Sheikh Daud Nwagui, Brainchild Behind The Proposed Islamic University.

•Boasts the best Islamic secondary school in Nigeria:

Unknown to most people in religiously divided Nigeria, the best Islamic secondary school in the country is not located in the Muslim-dominated North but in the largely Christian South-East, specifically in Afikpo, Ebonyi State.

Now there are plans to turn the school, known as Islamic Centre, Afikpo, into an Islamic University. This was disclosed by Sheikh Daud Nwagui, the Headmaster of the primary section of the school, who told the Daily Trust newspaper: “We hope to turn the school into a university, that is a university of Islamic studies. There is no school like this in the whole of the South-East.”

The hilly Afikpo town boasts the highest number of Igbo Muslims in the South-East, followed by the university town of Nsukka in neighbouring Enugu State. The Islamic Centre, Afikpo, was founded by Sheikh Ibrahim Okpani Nwagui, the father of the present headmaster, who brought Islam to Afikpo in 1958.

According to Sheikh Daud Nwagui, his late father embraced Islam in Senegal and promptly introduced the religion to his people when he returned to Nigeria in 1958.

“From that time a lot of people in the vicinity were turning to Islam. He was a very sincere person, and he was like this till his very last days. He was the founder of the Islamic Centre, Afikpo,” he said, adding: “This centre was set up in 1965 to propagate Islam generally. This is the best Islamic secondary school in the nation, and students come from all over the country, including Abuja.”

The Islamic Centre, Afikpo, has a primary and a secondary section. There are 450 pupils in the primary section, while the secondary section has some 500 pupils. Students write the NECO and SSCE examinations, just like other students in Nigerian secondary schools. The school has three boarding houses. A computer laboratory is under construction at the school.

Sheikh Daud Nwagui told Daily Trust that there is a special focus on Arabic as a language, on Islamic studies, physics, English Language, Biology, Chemistry, English Literature, Mathematics and Igbo. This, he explained, assists in producing a crop of rounded pupils.

The headmaster disclosed that graduates of the school have risen to prominent positions in the society. Many, he said, have done well in the areas of medicine, some are in the armed forces, also in engineering, and many have risen to become Chief Imams in many states of the federation.

Some graduates, Sheikh Daud Nwagui disclosed, are outside the country and doing very well in places such as Pakistan and India.
On challenges which the school has faced over the years, Sheikh Nwagui said that some form of challenge has come from those he described as ‘religious fanatics in the neighbourhood’ but quickly added: “But from the government of the state we are covered. The government gives us a lot of support.”

A MUST READ: Why Your Phones Batteries Can Explode In Your Pocket

Smartphone users have been warned by experts to live with the possibility that their phones could explode – on the charger, next to their beds or even in their pockets – at any time without warning.

It could be recalled that on Tuesday, 16-year-old Ina-Chérie Vermaak from Wonderboom South in Pretoria, South Africa was traumatised by the explosion of her Blackberry’s battery in her school bag as she was walking to class.
Her school uniform was burnt and she was enveloped in a cloud of white smoke. Telecommunication engineering experts have shed some light on why this happened and what can be done to prevent a battery exploding.
 
According to a senior lecturer at the University of Pretoria’s department of electrical, electronic and computer engineering, Jacques van Wyk, there was no way to prevent a possible explosion.
“It does not happen very often that a cellphone’s battery explodes but there is a chance that it could happen,” he said.
It is also not only cellphone batteries that can explode. Van Wyk said an explosion could occur because of a short circuit in the battery.
A short circuit could be more likely if the cellphone’s battery was left to run to below 10 percent. Manufacturers and service providers advise users not to let the battery get too flat before charging it.
 
However, charging can also lead to the battery overheating and thus exploding. “It is just one of those things and you cannot prevent the possibility that this could happen,” said Van Wyk.
Dr Linoh Magagula of the Tshwane University of Technology’s Department of Electrical Engineering said it “is rare for a cellphone to just explode” while it is lying somewhere.
He said it was more likely a phone would explode when it was left to charge for extended periods in a poorly ventilated area.
“If one is charging the cellphone, make sure it is charged in a properly ventilated area to prevent the battery from overheating,” he said.
He also said if the battery in Vermaak’s cellphone was not the original, the cells in the battery could have overheated.
“The cells could have been poorly insulated and if one cell overheats, the neighbouring cells will also heat up until the battery explodes. Magagula added that one could not rule out that the battery could have been faulty.
“If is was a factory fault, there is nothing one can do to prevent something like this happening,” said Magagula.
He said when a battery was replaced, the user should ensure it was an original battery.
 How To Prevent Your Phone Battery To Explode:
Use only the manufacturer’s original battery or well-known replacement brands, rather than cheap substitutes.
Do not leave your device in hot areas, especially if it’s charging. That only worsens overheating problems.
If your phone is charging or you are using functions that cause it to heat up, make sure you are using it in a ventilated area.
Charging your battery at 50 percent is a good thing, to prevent it from running too low.
Leave your device off charge overnight and plug it in when you get up. (Naij)

Man Holds Daughter Hostage, Rapes Her Repeatedly

A 53-year-old Argentine man has been arrested by the police for allegedly fathering five children with his own daughter who he captive inside their Mendoza home since childhood.

The unnamed man who is a blacksmith is being accused of repeatedly raping his daughter who is now 31-year-old and also threatening his entire family including their children, aged two to 13, to silence them.
He was arrested and taken into custody after the husband of another one of his older daughters contacted police.
He told the police that the victim had no boyfriend and it was her father who had sexually abused her and impregnated her.
According to Manuel Ontiveros, from the Mendoza police sex crime unit, "the man sometimes passed his daughter off as his wife, when he was asked by neighbours or people outside of the family."
A police source added that the man had been arrested previously for abusing one of his other daughters, who left home after the incident. But he was not jailed, he was rather given a suspended sentence as it was not rape.
Authorities are now investigating whether the girl's mother, who left the family home six years ago, was complicit in her former husband's sexual abuse on the daughter.
Local media say the case resembles that of Australian monster, Fritzl  who had seven children with the daughter he kept locked in a basement for 24 years.

STAR ACTOR REGRETS MARRYING WIFE – ‘You must not tell anybody that I am your husband’

This, no doubt, sounds crazy. But guess what? It’s nothing but the truth, like they say in the law court. One of the dashing and dazzling actors who is making serious waves in Nollywood at the moment, YES INTERNATIONAL! gathered, is not proud of his wife. And because of that, he has warned the woman who has given him about two children never to tell anyone that he is her husband.

The reason for his weird action is because he feels the woman does not befit him. The star actor, very handsome and currently rolling in money and picking awards here and abroad, married the woman, who is older than him, when he had nothing and was struggling to be somebody in life. But now that the Almighty God has blessed him, he is no longer proud of her, even though both of them still live under one roof. We gathered that in spite of being regularly invited to some of the biggest events in the country, not even for once has he attended any with the woman, an action she is no longer finding funny.

The situation became so bad recently that the woman had to cry out to one of her friends who shared the ‘info’ with us. The woman, by the way, besides being older than the actor, is also not particularly good looking. She was occupying a lucrative position and rolling in serious money when the actor who was then jobless decided to pitch his tent with her. But now he’s trying to ‘unpitch’ it – even though their union was consummated in one of the popular Pentecostal churches with headquarters in Ikeja, Lagos.

The actor is dark skinned, dresses well and of average height. The 2nd alphabet begins his first name. He has anchored a couple of prominent programmes and has always operated ‘codedly’. Yet to be encircled by a scandal, this raging issue may ultimately dent his Mr. Clean image. Except he does something fast and also finds a way to pacify his hurting wife and mother of his children.

Surgeon Accidentally Removes Woman's Ovary Instead Of Appendix

Another case of terrible medical error dating back to October 2011 has been recently made public in England.

A 32-year-old pregnant woman was taken to Queen's Hospital outside of London to have her appendix removed but instead of this doctors took out her ovary.
Victim of the medical mix-up Maria De Jesus, who was 21 weeks pregnant with her 4th child, died 3 weeks later.
Now two doctors are in court in connection with the case: a trainee surgeon Dr. Yahya Al-Abed and the supervising surgeon Dr. Babatunde Coker (who was supposed to follow the surgery).
While the trainee doctor was removing what he thought was the appendix, the supervising doctor was reportedly having his lunch. Coker was never summoned, nor was he aware the surgery was taking place...
Until the mistake was uncovered in November, when the woman returned to the hospital suffering from severe pain.

Man Goes on Rampage, Beheads Cousins, Injures Two Others in Akwa Ibom State (Photo)

A 35-year old man, Mr. Uwem Job, on Wednesday, beheaded two of his cousins, Mr. Akaninyene Job, 45; and Ezekiel Job, 36 in Ikot Nkim, Ibesikpo/Asutan Local Government Area, Akwa Ibom State. While his two other cousins – Itoro Job and Ekemini Job – narrowly escaped death as Uwem’s machete missed their throats, but cut through their hands.

According to Akaninyene’s younger brother, Mr. Ekemini Job, around 8.10am that fateful day, Uwem came to their house and told Akaninyene to come with him, saying that he had something to show him (Akaninyene).

He stated that as Akaninyene opened the curtain to see what Uwem had for him, he (Uwem) hit Akaninyene on the neck with a machete and severed his head from the body.
Ekemini said:

Uwem came to our house around 8am and asked Akaninyene to open the door and collect something he brought for him. Uwem had a 25-litre keg of fuel in his hand and had hid a machete that he brought with him. 

People who saw Uwem thought the keg contained palm wine. As my brother opened the curtain to see Uwem, he  quickly brought out his machete and severed Akaninyene’s head from his body.”

An elder sister to Akaninyene, Mrs. Christian Ekong, said they were at the backyard when the shouts from Ekemini caught their attention.

“Ekemini saw Uwem killing Akaninyene and raised the alarm. As we rushed to the scene of the killing, I saw Uwem spilling the fuel on the flour. He then struck a match.  

I raised the alarm, alerting everybody in the house to run. If not for the quick intervention of the youth of the area, the entire house would have been burnt down,” Ekong said.

Ezekiel was said to have been killed few minutes after Akaninyene had been beheaded. The distance between where Akaninyene lived and that of Ezekiel was said to be about 20 metres.
An eyewitness, Okon Eyo, told Punch's correspondent that Ezekiel was just waking up when Uwem called at his home and beheaded him.
He said:

 “We heard shouts from Akaninyene compound, but we did not know what had happened. The next moment, we saw Uwem go straight into Ezekiel room, which was next to his (Uwem) and severe Ezekiel’s head. 

Before we knew what had happened, Uwem had fled. We will apprehend him. We believe he is hiding around this area.”

When Punch's correspondent visited the area, both bodies were laid in front of their houses.
Akaninyene’s younger sister, Mrs. Comfort Okon, told him that the killer of her brother and Ezekiel came back from Lagos about two weeks ago.

“There had never been any quarrel in the family. When my mother was buried on February 22, all the family members, including Uwem, were there. They were the ones who perfected all the burial arrangement, I don’t know why this has happened,” she said.

Bodies of the deceased, Akaninyene and Ezekiel, were later taken to the mortuary in a police van.
Efforts to reach the state Police Public Relations Officer, Mr. Etim Dickson, to confirm the story failed as he did not answer calls to his telephone or respond to text messages sent to the phone.

Mob in Lagos Beats Up, almost Lynches a Mad Woman they Suspect is a Ritualist (Photo)

A woman said to be mentally-challenged escaped being lynched by an angry mob on Wednesday after she was allegedly caught with N100,000, two ATM cards, two BlackBerry phones and an android phone. Incident occurred around Onabanjo Street, Oworonshoki, Lagos State, around 10am.

A resident, James Ogunkoya, told Punch that when some youths saw the woman with some money, they trailed her into a compound. The youths, who suspected her of being a ritual killer, pounced on her and beat her to a pulp.
Ogunkoya said:

Around 10am, I saw a crowd around an unkempt woman. Some of the youths picked up
sticks and were beating the woman. When I asked what was wrong, they said they found three phones and N100,000 with the her. They said the woman was not mad, but was only pretending to be mad so that she could easily perpetrate evil acts.”

Another resident said it was N50,000 that was found with the woman.The resident, who declined to identify himself, said the youths started suspecting her when she was overheard speaking like a normal person with somebody two days ago.

“Some guys were convinced that the woman was only pretending because they overheard her talking with a man on Monday night. They also wondered where a mad woman could have found the phones,” he added.

PUNCH Metro learnt that policemen attached to the Oworonshoki Police Division were alerted by the noise of the crowd gathered at the scene. A police team was said to have rescued the woman from the mob.

When Punch's correspondent visited the station, the woman was seen lying on a bench near the counter of the station. She had a burst lip while her arms were bleeding. And a policeman, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said attempts to verify the allegations against her were fruitless.
He said:

I have been asking the woman questions all day, but she has just been incoherent. She has even refused to tell us her name. At some point, she just started crying, so I let her sleep. I don’t even know if she is a mad woman.  

Also, when she was arrested and we searched her, we did not find any money, phone or ATM cards on her. Nobody has come to write any statement here at the station.”

The General Secretary, Oworonshoki Youth Forum, Babajide Kabiawu, blamed the incident on the fear in the minds of people since the arrest of ritual killers in some South-West states. He said there was a need for the government to set up a special task force at the community level.
He said:

“I do not condone people taking the laws into their hands. However, it is a reflection of the level of insecurity coupled with the discovery of the activities of ritual killers in Oyo and Ogun states. The notorious cannibal, Clifford Oji, used to parade himself as a mad man as well. We have also seen cases in our neighborhood where supposed mad people kidnapped children. We want the government to support the community in setting up a task force that will evacuate mentally-challenged people.”

'Whitney Houston Family Nick's Not Welcome Here ... For ONE FULL YEAR

Whitney Houston's sister-in-law just got a year's worth of peace of mind ... a judge has just ordered Whitney's son-in-law Nick Gordon to stay clear of her for the next year.

We broke the story ... Pat Houston got a restraining order against Nick last month ... claiming he made threatening comments against her and posted ominous photos of guns on Twitter.

Now a judge has extended the order for 12 months, so Nick can't contact Pat or anyone in her immediate family ... he comes within 200 yards -- he goes to jail.

The bad blood is long-standing.  Family members tell us Nick resents Pat because she controls the purse strings of Whitney's estate ... and he thinks his wife Bobbi Kristina got screwed on her inheritance.

We reached out for comment ... so far, no response. (TMZ)
