End Time:14year old Girl Kills another 14year old Girl after Facebook fight over a Boy


14 year old Endia Martin (pictured above) was killed on Monday April 28th by another 14 year old girl after they argued on Facebook about a boy. Its not funny oooo!

According to Chicago Times, the handgun used to kill Endia Martin had been brought to the scene by someone who knew the suspect and knew 'there was going to be a fight' Chicago police said

"What would have been, under any other circumstance, probably a fistfight between 14-year-old girls, because they were fighting over a boy, turned into a murder. You introduce a firearm and you have a murder." The police said

Endia was walking home from school when the other girl approached, pulled the gun and opened fire around 4:30 p.m on Monday in West Garfield Boulevard, Chicago, according to police. Endia was hit in the back and killed instantly.

The 14 year old girl has been charged as a juvenile with murder, while her 24-year-old uncle and a 17-year-old boy are also facing charges. The two are being held for giving the gun to the killer.

Actress Genevieve Nnaji’s Enough Angered At The Issue Of The Abducted Girls

Click for Full Image Size
The trendy topic now in Nigeria is The #BringBackOurGirls following the abduction of 234 girls in the Northern part of Nigeria, many are lending their voices to the hot issue. Nollywood star actress, Genevieve Nnaji is not left out in this discussion and she shared on her official Facebook her thoughts on the trending topic, #BringBackOurGirls and urges everyone to sign a petition.

Read below and share your thoughts;

"I’ve always been of the belief that less words and more action speaks greater volumes.

But in this case of no foreseen action, I believe some talking is in order. The abduction of these young girls goes against everything that we as Africans fought for, for so many years.

What we as Nigerians have been faced with and have been fighting over these past years. Not to mention what we women and mothers still fight against till this very day.

Kidnapping, abduction, slavery, child bride and the complete disrespect and disregard for human life and rights is…in my opinion, every wrong that seems to be getting away here.

Reports say that our babies are being shipped off to neighboring countries, distributed and married off. How could this be when we have appointed men to protect us? Why are we called giants if we can’t trample over ants?

Enough of these setbacks!! There are way too many distractions for this Nation to achieve its true potential. It is time to respond and to act!!

I know it’s not easy being a leader of a country but like some people love to point out to me…just when they are about to sympathize with the challenges that comes with being in my position and then remember the perks, YOU KNOW WHAT YOU SIGNED UP FOR."


Please we implore, we plead and we beg,.. Save our girls! Help bring the girls back home.

No Big Brother Africa this year?



Most of us are waiting with bated breath for the next Big Brother Africa. However the rumour mill is rife with talk that there will be no BBA this year.

Woman Died Immediately She Drank Holy Water In Abuja-FCT

A lady died on Monday after drinking power water allegedly given to her by a pastor at Ajegunle area of Mpape, Abuja.

According to a resident of the area, the deceased and her friend had gone to the house of the pastor who is known to be able to cure many diseases with his power water that morning. When they got there, the pastor gave them the power water to drink. The deceased drank first and then gave the remaining to her friend who also drank.
"As soon as she drank, her eyes started bulging; she started vomiting blood and died instantly," the source said.
Confirming the incident, the Mpape Divisional Police Officer, Chief Superintendent Abayomi Surajudeen said the case has been transferred to FCT criminal investigation department. At the FCT criminal department, Police spokesperson, Deputy Superintendent Hyelhira Altine Daniel, said it is true that a lady died after drinking holy water popularly known as power water given to her by the pastor but added that it cannot be ascertained that the lady actually died from drinking the water because her friend also drank the same water and she's still alive.
He said it would be unfair to accuse the pastor for the death as the lady left the pastor's house hale and hearty, only to get home and start complaining of stomach ache and she died before she could be rushed to the hospital.
According to him, the ladies may have branched somewhere and eaten something else while returning from the pastor’s house.
He however said they are investigating the allegation and that the findings would be made public when concluded.
