Burkina Faso parliament set ablaze

Demonstrators breached the security around parliament and set it on fire

According to BBC News, Protesters angry at plans to allow Burkina Faso's President Blaise Compaore to extend his 27-year-rule have set fire to parliament. The source reports that the city hall and ruling party headquarters are also in flames. 

Earlier, the military reportedly fired at protesters who stormed parliament.

Tear gas was also fired from a helicopter, as a crowd surged towards the presidency, reports say.

Parliament was due to consider changing the constitution so that Mr Compaore, 63, could run for office again in elections next year. 

A government minister could not confirm reports that the constitutional amendment has been withdrawn, Reuters news agency reports.

Mr Compaore first took power in a coup in 1987, and has won four disputed elections since then.

The opposition has called for a campaign of civil disobedience to demand that he steps down.

"October 30 is Burkina Faso's Black Spring, like the Arab Spring," opposition activist Emile Pargui Pare told AFP news agency.

State television has gone off air after protesters stormed the building housing it and ransacked it, Reuters quotes a witness as saying.

 

Car were also set ablaze near parliament

 

The protesters do not want Mr Compaore to change the constitution to extend his rule.

 

Smoke could be seen billowing from parliament.

Police had earlier fired tear gas to prevent protesters from moving in on the parliamentary building.

But about 1,500 people managed to breach the security cordon and were ransacking parliament, AFP reports.

Protesters were setting fire to documents and stealing computer equipment; cars outside the building are also on fire, it reports.

Mr Compaore is a staunch ally of the US and France, which uses Burkina Faso as a base for military operations against militant Islamists in the Sahel region.

Both France and the European Union (EU) have called on him to scrap the proposed constitutional amendment.

The EU said it could jeopardise Burkina Faso's stability. The US has also raised concern about the proposed amendment.

Evil: HIV-Positive Man Records Himself Having Unprotected S*x With More Than 30 People In 4 Months!

Prosecutors tell News 4 they now know more than 30 people could have gotten HIV from a former student at Lindenwood University who allegedly knew he had the deadly disease. He is accused of knowingly giving it to others. In October, Michael Johnson, 22, was charged with exposing sexual partners to HIV. Police later discovered multiple videos of Johnson having unprotected sex. They believe those partners were unaware Johnson was HIV positive and that they were being videotaped. The startling details were revealed after hidden camera sex tapes were uncovered, according to prosecutors. “On that laptop were 32 videos engaged in sexual acts with Mr. Johnson,” said Tim Lohmar, St. Charles County prosecutor. Lohmar said Johnson can be seen with 31 unidentified people in videos taken over four months.

Most of the videos were shot on the campus of Lindenwood University in St. Charles. Johnson has already been charged with five counts of knowingly transmitting the disease. “Those videos were taken inside his dorm room; we know that because we recognize the furniture,” Lohmar said most of victims not only likely had no idea they were being video-taped; they were clueless that Johnson had HIV. That’s why Lohmar wants any potential victims to come forward immediately. It’s a matter not only of their individual safety but public safety as well. Lindenwood University school officials tell News 4 they will assist law enforcement with identifying victims. They say they had no idea the videos existed until just a few days ago. “I think it’s really scary, thinking someone like that is on campus, not thinking about others,” said Student Jenny Counts. Students are shaken up by this latest news, but glad that Johnson is still behind bars for now. If convicted of knowingly transmitting HIV, he could get up to life in prison.

"I’m Really Obsessed With Waist Training: Kim Kardashian

In a recent interview, Kim Kardashian said she deserves respect because she works very hard.
She then took to Instagram and took a picture of her minute body.

"I’m really obsessed with waist training! Thank you @premadonna87 for my new waist shapers! #whatsawaist," Kim captioned the picture, for which she was clearly paid a hefty sum.

This isn't the first time Kardashian has acted like an atrocious role model for young fans around the globe.

Instead of passing along positive messages about self-confidence and body image, Kim Instagrammed an image of herself wearing a corset from What's a Waist in August. It retails at $143.50.

That's an impressive double from Kardashian: she is telling fans that they should both aim to be as thin as possible .

Women’s Health Magazine asked Mary Jane Minkin - the clinical professor of obstetrics and gynecology at Yale School of Medicine - about this absurd What a Waist corset and she replied:

"Once you take the garment off, your body will return to its usual shape. It’s also uncomfortable, restricts your movements, and if you wear it really tight, it can even make it difficult to breathe and theoretically could cause rib damage."

Love is Not By Force: Female Corper Beating to a Pulp For Trying to Charm Her Lover (Read)

One female youth corps member identified as Chinyere, landed in trouble when a love portion she prepared for her  Ex-Lover turned back against her

The event which took place around Redeemed Junction along Okpanam community road, Asaba, followed a long relationship between the suspect and the young man, who hails from Ibusa community near Asaba.
Report has it that they started dating while they were both in Lagos, until she graduated and was posted to Asaba for her youth service.

According to source, their relationship encountered some undisclosed issues and the young man broke up, but the suspect refused to let go despite all effort to convince her he was done with the relationship.
It was gathered that the suspect insisted the relationship must continue because she had put in a lot of time.
“I have invested my time and resources into this relationship and you cannot just wake up and tell me you are through with me. If you have done that to other girls before, you cannot try that with me,” Chinyere said.

The victim said on the fateful evening, the suspect reported the young man to his elder sister who lives in Benin, adding that he was called and advised to let the sleeping dog lie after talking some sense into him.
The young man reportedly obeyed his elder sister and invited the suspect to his house situated around Okpanam community where the misfortune happened.

The two ‘love birds’ reportedly took a walk down town that night, getting to some point, the young man excused her to purchase a bottle of water and as soon as he walked away, the suspect not knowing people were watching her, reportedly brought out a small can and she packed sand from the spot the young man stood, and immediately jumped into a commercial tricycle and left the scene but was chased and brought down.

The corps member was reportedly pounced on beaten to pulp by an angry mob who witnessed the incident.

OMG!!!! Man Commits Suicide Over N1000 Theft in Ebonyi

A 32-year-old man, Mr. Simon Mbam, of Izzi Local Government Area of Ebonyi State has committed suicide after he was tortured by some villagers for allegedly stealing N1,000 from a shop in the market.

The victim, who jumped into a pond in the area last weekend, found himself in the mess when he left his house in the evening of the fateful day to buy drinks with his friends.

 

While late Simon and his friends were busy sipping their drinks, the owner of the shop raised an alarm over a missing N1,000 in his carton of drinks, but no customer admitted to haven taken the money.

The alarm raised by the shop owner attracted villagers who stormed the scene and gave the suspects till the following day to return the money or face the consequences.

According to Vanguard, It was learned that the said missing money was found at the door step of the shop, but when the villagers who were determined to get to the root of the matter gathered, the owner of the shop insisted on knowing the person behind the act.

The suspect, who later confessed to the crime, was allegedly beaten by the irate villagers until he started bleeding and losing consciousness.

They demanded that he should be treated like a thief, even as he was fined two goats, two crates of beer and N5,000, which were immediately provided by the suspect’s mother (names withheld).

It was gathered that the village head rejected what the suspect’s mother brought, insisting that an additional N5,000 should be provided so that the matter would be completely resolved without involving the police.

This second demand by the villagers made the suspect, who felt humiliated by the entire process, escape from his captors and jumped into Aku Pond, which was not far from the market square.

All efforts to rescue him on time proved abortive as he drowned before his body was retrieved by the villagers.

Meanwhile, four persons including the village head, had been arrested by the police after the mother of the victim reported the matter.

He added that family members are planning to visit the country so they could get her corspe.

The doctor who carried out the procedure, Sompob Sansiri, has however been arrested and officials say they have already started investigating the cause of her death.

Though born in Lagos, Joy moved to Thamesmead with her mom in 2007 and had visited Thailand twice before deciding to go for the surgery.

Woman Kills Man Who Tried To Rape Her In Lagos - See Photo

An unidentified suspected rapist has been killed in the Lekki area of Lagos State while attempting to rape a 22-year-old woman, Ifeoma Okechukwu.

 

It was learnt that the incident happened on Monday, around 12.30pm, in Atlantic View Estate, Alpha Beach Road, Lekki.

Punch learnt that Okechukwu was on her menstrual period and had gone out to buy sanitary pads.

The Imo State indigene was said to be on her way back home when she was accosted by the stranger.

She said,

“After buying the sanitary pads, I was going back home when I saw a man, who should be in his forties, standing at a corner. He approached me and ordered me to take him to my house.“He put his hand into his pocket as if he wanted to bring out a weapon. He said he would kill me if I shouted.When we got to the house, he said I should shut the door and I did. He said I should remove my clothes; and I started begging him, but he refused to listen.So I told him to let me get to the kitchen because I was cooking something and I would be back. I got a rod and hid it in my wrapper. I went back and moved slowly towards him, still begging, but he refused.He was taking off his clothes and wearing a condom when I used the rod to hit him in the head. I started screaming. And then I picked the phone and called my uncle.”

The victim’s uncle, who pleaded anonymity, told Punch Metro that he went to report the matter at the Ilasan Police Station after learning what had happened.

He said, 

“I was not at home when the incident happened and her younger brother had also gone out. So, she was alone in the house and it was possible he had been monitoring her movement.When she called me and said what had happened, I left the office and went to the police station in Jakande Estate where I reported the matter.”

A police source told our correspondent that investigators found a pack of condoms on the deceased, including a phone without a SIM card.

The source added that since the incident happened, no one had shown up to claim the man’s corpse.
He said,

“He was about wearing the condom when the girl hit him on the head and he died. His mission was to rape her and steal from the house. He probably took advantage of her frail stature.We have got information that he was not alone. He belonged to a gang that has been terrorizing Lekki residents for some time now. And that’s why since this incident, nobody knows his name and address, and none of his relatives has come forward to say they know him.

The Police Public Relations Officer, Lagos State Command, DSP Kenneth Nwosu, promised to call our correspondent back, but he had yet to do so as of the time of filing this report.

Okechukwu was however said to have been arrested and detained in police custody.

 

Would the victim be charged with murder case or self defense?

Is self defense a crime?

What is your take on this matter?
