The headless cock  was like a shock of their life when the resident saw it . “I spotted the white polythene paper in the morning but I did not open it because I thought it was waste dumped along the road,” Rachel said.

“At first we were afraid to check but we opted to do so when another neighbour dared to open and find out what it was,” she said. Many residents ran for dear life when a cock without a head emerged from the polythene paper and walked freely along the road. Another dead and rotten cock which was black in colour was left in the polythene paper.

 You guys are rumour mongers. Funke Akindele Oloyede.”
 
 It was reported on Tuesday that the actress may have been separated from her husband, Kehinde Oloyede, son of former Iyaloja of Oshodi market.

30 seriously Injured as Catholic Community Clash

0 0
Read Time:1 Minute, 34 Second

The ongoing crisis between the Catholic faithful and a section of Awka community over the observance of Christian burial rights in the area took another dimension on Wednesday night, when the two bodies clashed openly in the heart of the Anambra State capital,Awka, leaving at least 30 persons wounded.
 
 Among those injured were Mrs. Juliana Okeke, Mr. Ogah Moses, Mr. Christian Anichebe, Mr. Obuekwe Obukwelu, Mr. Onwa Patrick, who are receiving treatment at Regina Caeli Hospital in Awka. Speaking from their hospital beds, they said it was only God that rescued them from the hands of the youths while returning from a burial.
 
 The latest incident was triggered off during the burial ceremony of an 85-year old man, Mr. Samuel Nwana Nebolisa at Umudioka in Awka.
 
 The bone of contention between the church and some people in Umudioka community was the dust-to-dust ceremony usually performed during the burial of Catholics, which a section of the community had objected to over the years and often led to confrontation during burial ceremonies in the Community.
 
 Since the demise of the late Pa Nebolisa in April this year, there had been arguments between the church and the community following the insistence of the church that the dust-to-dust ceremony must be performed by the wife of the deceased because he was a Catholic, but some of his kinsmen objected to it on the ground that it was against their tradition.
 
 First son of the deceased, Mr. Ikechukwu Nebolisa said his late father had willed that his wife should perform the dust-to-dust ceremony during his burial because members of the family were ardent Catholics and wondered why some people in the community should prevent her from doing so, especially when the constitution of the country allowed for freedom of worship.

“Minor” heart symptoms you should never ignore

0 0
Read Time:5 Minute, 23 Second

“I was short of breath. I couldn’t breathe. I couldn’t talk. My chest was heavy. It felt like a heavy weight was pressing down on my chest. I was sweating even though the air-conditioner was on. I felt faint and fatigued. Then the pain…oh the pain! I can’t forget that pain. It was raw, deep and intense. It was scary. It still scares me.” Such was the account of a friend who suffered an “incident” recently.  She didn’t know it, but she was suffering a “petit mal” or “little death”. In common parlance she was having a heart attack. How many times have you felt similar symptoms? Never, once, twice, occasionally?

A skipped heartbeat, the feeling of fish flopping around in your chest, a racing heart rate — these are all the physical feelings of atrial fibrillation — simply put, the most common type of heart rhythm disorder. Millions of Nigerians suffer from atrial fibrillation — the type of irregular heartbeat that occurs when the upper chambers of the person’s heart (the atria) quiver out of rhythm with the lower chambers.

People can develop an abnormal heart rhythm at any age, but the risk for atrial fibrillation increases as one gets older. The number of people affected by this disorder is actually expected to double.A warning sign is indication that something is amiss with your heart. Heart disease kills more men and women than all forms of cancer combined.

Why is heart disease so deadly?

Many people are slow to seek help when symptoms arise. Yes, someone gripped by sudden chest pain probably knows to call for help. But heart symptoms aren’t always intense or obvious, and they vary from person to person and according to gender. First episodes of atrial fibrillation may feel quite different from having a heart attack, so many people pass it off as nothing serious. But, just because the disorder lacks the chest-clutching drama of a coronary, doesn’t mean it’s not dangerous.

Signals of trouble Anxiety

Heart attack can cause intense anxiety or a fear of death. Heart attack survivors often talk about having experienced a sense of “impending doom.”

Chest discomfort

Pain in the chest is the classic symptom of heart attack, and the No. 1 symptom doctors typically look for. But not all heart attacks cause chest pain. Heart-related chest pain is often centered under the breastbone, perhaps a little to the left of center. The pain has been likened to “an elephant sitting on the chest,” but it can also be an uncomfortable sensation of pressure, squeezing, or fullness.

Cough

Persistent coughing or wheezing can be a symptom of heart failure — a result of fluid accumulation in the lungs. In some cases, people with heart failure cough up bloody phlegm.

Dizziness

Heart attacks can cause lightheadedness and loss of consciousness. So can potentially dangerous heart rhythm abnormalities known as arrhythmias.

Fatigue

Especially among women, unusual fatigue can occur during a heart attack as well as in the days and weeks leading up to one. And feeling tired all the time may be a symptom of heart failure. You can also feel tired or fatigued for other reasons. Wasting time is dangerous.

Nausea or lack of appetite

It’s not uncommon for people to feel sick to their stomach or throw up during a heart attack. And abdominal swelling associated with heart failure can interfere with appetite.

Pain in other parts of the body

In many heart attacks, pain begins in the chest and spreads to the shoulders, arms, elbows, back, neck, jaw, or abdomen. But sometimes there is no chest pain — just pain in these other body areas. The pain might come and go. Men having a heart attack often feel pain in the left arm. In women, the pain is more likely to be felt in both arms, or between the shoulder blades.

Rapid or irregular pulse

Doctors say that there’s nothing worrisome about an occasional skipped heartbeat. But a rapid or irregular pulse — especially when accompanied by weakness, dizziness, or shortness of breath — can be evidence of a heart attack, heart failure, or an arrhythmia. Left untreated, some arrhythmias can lead to stroke, heart failure, or sudden death.

Shortness of breath

People who feel winded at rest or with minimal exertion might have a pulmonary condition like asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). But breathlessness could also indicate a heart attack or heart failure. Sometimes people having a heart attack don’t have chest pressure or pain but feel extremely short of breath,” It’s like they’ve just run a marathon when they haven’t even moved. During a heart attack, shortness of breath often accompanies chest discomfort, but it can also occur before or without chest discomfort.

Sweating

Breaking out in a cold sweat is a common symptom of heart attack. You might just be sitting in a chair when all of a sudden you are really sweating like you had just worked out.

Swelling

Heart failure can cause fluid to accumulate in the body. This can cause swelling (often in the feet, ankles, legs, or abdomen) as well as sudden weight gain and sometimes a loss of appetite.

Weakness

In the days leading up to a heart attack, as well as during one, some people experience severe, unexplained weakness.

This information could save your life

Never ignore the signs

It  can be hard to make sense of heart symptoms, so never ignore possible warning signs, waiting to see if they go away, or being quick to blame them on heartburn, muscle soreness, or other less serious, non-cardiac causes.

This is especially true for men and people over 65, as well as for people with other cardiac risk factors, such as high cholesterol or blood pressure, obesity, smoking, diabetes, or a family history of heart disease. The more risk factors you have, the higher the likelihood that a symptom means something is going on with your heart.

Putting off treatment for other medical problems might not be so bad, but a serious heart problem can mean sudden death. It’s better to go in and get it evaluated than to be dead.

Lagos: Ladipo traders on rampage

0 0
Read Time:2 Minute, 50 Second

The crisis rocking the leadership of Ladipo Auto Spare Parts Market, Mushin, took a new dimension on Thursday as the executive members of Ladipo Central Executive Auto Dealers Association and some of its members took to the streets protesting the imposition of Alhaji Oladotun Abibu Oki as the Babaloja of the market.

LACEC and its numerous supports had on Thursday launched an attack on the Alhaji Oki led administration over what they described as an attempt to impose his authority on them. Alhaji Oki had organised some of his loyalists to clean the environment during the weekly environmental sanitation but were attacked by the aggrieved members of the LACEC who claimed that he was encroaching on their territory.

Addressing the protesters, President General, LACEC, Comrade Ikechukwu Animalu said that the union rejected the imposition of Alhaji Oladotun Abibu Oki as the new Babaloja of Ladipo general market. “ Out of the 34 existing units in the market, Alhaji Oki controls only a unit. There is still an on going battle over his appointment as the new Babaloja. It was his attempt to impose his authority on us that led to the crisis that erupted on Thursday. We demand a formal election, so that the people will decide who their leader will be.

“We also appeal to the police to be fair in this controversial matter and call to order those who openly ordered us to either accept the imposition or return to our various states.”

On what led to the fight on Thursday, LACEC Secretary General, Pastor Steve Paul Ijioma said: “There has been controversy over the imposition of Alhaji Oki as the Babaloja. This led to several clashes and it was agreed that Alhaji Oki should restrict his authority in his unit pending when the matter is sorted out. During the environmental sanitation, he encroached on our territory and we resisted. The protest is to pass the message across that we do not want his leadership rather a free and fair election should be conducted. It is a pity that an Area Commander could openly ask us to accept Babaloja or return to our various states.”

Also at the protest was the royal father of the market, Chief Michael Nwosu who also said: “ 99 percent of marketers in Ladipo are Igbo. To be fair to all, he should come and contest if elected he will be accepted.

“We appeal to the South East governors, Igbo leaders across the globe to come to our aid. They asked us to go back to our villages, if we are not ready to accept the leadership of Alhaji Oki. We pay our taxes in Lagos and have every right as Nigerians to buy and sell anywhere in the state.”

When Saturday Sun visited Alhaji Oki’s section of the market, it was littered with broken bottles and the two cars allegedly destroyed during the fracas. He said that he was ready to dialogue with aggrieved members of LACEC to find a way forward. “I was nominated two years ago to be installed the Babaloja of the market. LACEC through several petitions frustrated that move and the process was delayed. However two months ago, the late Abibat Mogaji finally installed me. To pass their message across they did not attend my installation, which was held in June 27, 2013. DAILYNEWS

Nigeria: Suspension of Fayose: Insultive,it can’t stand – Tukur

0 0
Read Time:2 Minute, 54 Second

Former Ekiti State Governor, Mr. Ayo Fayose, outside the Federal High Court, Ado-Ekiti,

ABUJA- NATIONAL chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Alhaji Bamanga Tukur has described the alleged suspension of former governor of Ekiti State, Chief Ayodele Fayose from the party by a faction of the PDP as a violation of  laid down procedures and cannot stand.

According to Tukur, the move was an affront on the national leadership of the party without the consent of Tukur led National Working Committee, NWC, just as he  expressed surprise that such a far reaching decision involving a former Governor and a Gubernatorial Aspirant of the Party can be taken by the State Chapter without  due consultations and consent of the National Leadership of the Party.
Former Ekiti State Governor, Mr. Ayo Fayose, outside the Federal High Court, Ado-Ekiti, after yesterday's sitting.

In a statement by his Special Assistant, Media, Prince Oliver Okpala Special Assistant,  the PDP National Chairman  made these statements when he received some members of the Ekiti State Executive of the Party, accompanied by some Elders and led by the former Governor who was at the National secretariat  to complain to Tukur  over the unilateral suspension of the former Governor of the State by the State Chairman of the Party.

The  National Chairman however promised that the National Leadership of the Party will  create a conducive and enabling environment for every member  to contest for  election to any office, adding  that even where it becomes necessary that there should be a consensus arrangement, everybody within the party must be carried along so that nobody at the end will feel short-changed or isolated.

“The National Chairman wondered why such a decision should be taken in a hurry when he has received the complaint of the state Executive led by the Chairman few days ago and assured that he is going to handle the issue at National level with a view to finding a final solution to the problem.

It is the view of the National Chairman that the State Executive having brought the matter would have allowed the National Leadership look into the matter and take a decision before the hurried suspension.

“He said that such a decision violated lay down procedures and cannot stand. He  remarked that the National Leadership of the Party will not condone any act of imposition of candidate in the party under his leadership.

Tukur assured the delegation that the National Working Committee will soon look into the matter critically and come out with a decision.

Responding, Fayose  who led the delegation said  he was pleased when he heard from the media that the National leadership of the Party will handle the matter and was waiting to be invited to present his own side of the story only to also read in the papers of his hurried suspension from the Party.

He denied having any hand in the catastrophic actions that took place in the Party’s  State Secretariat, adding  that as a man of honour and as a Former Governor of the State who believe in the rule of law, there was no way he can encourage any act of lawlessness, thuggery brigandage.

Governor Fayose pledged that he and his supporters will abide by any decision of the National Leadership of the Party as a true Party man and democrat

Fabregas not for sale, Martino tells United

0 0
Read Time:2 Minute, 40 Second

Gerardo Martino, officially unveiled as Barcelona’s new manager on Friday, wasted no time in telling Manchester United that Cesc Fabregas was not for sale.

On Thursday, United boss David Moyes revealed that the English champions’ attempts to sign the former Arsenal captain were “ongoing” after two reported bids, one of £30 million ($38 million) had been rejected.

Martino, asked about Fabregas at a Nou Camp press conference, insisted: “If the club has signalled its refusal twice, then I signal it a third time – and so he (Fabregas) will be staying here.”

Barca vice-president Josep Maria Bartolomeu confirmed: “We are not thinking of selling Cesc.

“That United are showing interest in Cesc is normal, because he’s a great player.

“That doesn’t upset us, that makes us proud that they want one of our players.

“But whatever the offer, we won’t be selling him. We are relying on him.”

At the press conference Martino laid out his ambitions for his new team, declaring that he wanted Barca to concentrate on the dazzling style of play that has made the Catalan side great in the past.

The 50-year-old has joined Barca on a two year contract, replacing Tito Vilanova who stood down last Friday to pursue treatment for cancer.

Speaking about his aims Martino told the media: “Every side, even Barcelona which has already achieved certain moments of excellence, can always improve, and Barcelona still has things to win.

“To continue to retain a high standard of play in order to keep winning, that’s one of the questions.

“There is something with Barcelona that we’ve become used to and which has I could say dazzled us, at any rate which has struck us, that is the ability to know how to press forward and then quickly recuperate the ball.

“That’s perhaps one of the characteristics that we’re most interested in rediscovering so that Barca is a team that feels at ease attacking and which defends far from its box.”

Martino continued: “Every team, even Barcelona which has already attained certain moments of excellence, can always improve, and Barca still has things to win.

“We are going to try to recover certain things that we’ve seen when Barca have been at their best, and add a few ideas of our own.”

Turning to Barca’s star player Lionel Messi the Argentine said: “He will continue to play in exactly the same position. He has to feel comfortable, after that he’ll do the rest.”

He stressed he had no intention of changing Barca’s 4-3-3 format.

Martino joins Barca from Argentine outfit Newell’s Old Boys, a former club of Messi.

He has no previous managerial experience in Europe, although he did enjoy a brief spell in Spain with Tenerife as a player in 1991.

As a coach Martino won four league titles in Paraguay, and guided the national team to the 2010 World Cup quarter-finals. AFP

Dozens killed as clashes erupt at Morsi rally in Cairo

0 0
Read Time:4 Minute, 12 Second

Dozens of Mohamed Morsi’s supporters were shot dead in the Egyptian capital on Saturday as violence erupted following a night of massive rallies for and against the ousted Islamist president.

An AFP correspondent saw at least 37 bodies laid out at a makeshift mortuary in an Islamist-run field hospital in Cairo, with doctors saying all of them were killed by live rounds during the clashes.

Medics at the field hospital said a total of 75 people were killed, including bodies taken elsewhere. The health ministry said 20 people died.

The bloodshed came hours after the military-backed interior minister, Mohammed Ibrahim, warned a long-running sit-in at Cairo’s Rabaa al-Adawiya mosque by Morsi loyalists would be ended “in the framework of the law”.

The army ousted Morsi on July 3 after nationwide protests demanding his ouster.

Tens of thousands of supporters from his Muslim Brotherhood movement have since been camped outside the mosque in the Nasr City district of Cairo, in a defiant bid to get him reinstated.

Doctors at the field hospital said at least 1,000 were also wounded in clashes with police on the road to Cairo’s international airport on Saturday morning.

The health ministry said 177 people were wounded.

A Brotherhood leader, Murad Ali, told AFP that police had fired live rounds, but the official MENA news agency cited a security official it did not identify as denying the police used any live bullets.

Running battles broke out at dawn on the airport road, with police firing tear gas at stone-throwing protesters, MENA said. Buckshot was fired, but it was unclear from which side.

Thousands of supporters and opponents of the coup also took to the streets of Egypt’s second city Alexandria, sparking fierce clashes that killed seven people and wounded 194.

The bloodshed came as the interim interior minister said the military-backed government would move swiftly to break up the Islamist protest camp in Nasr City.

“There will be decisions from the prosecutor soon, and this situation will be ended,” Mohammed Ibrahim told satellite television channel Al-Hayat.

Army chief General Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, who orchestrated the coup, had called for a mass show of support on Friday for a crackdown on “terrorism”.

Hundreds of thousands of anti-Morsi protesters obliged and gathered in Cairo’s Tahrir Square and around the Itihadiya presidential palace.

A spokesman for army-installed president Adly Mansour said the numbers “affirmed the rejection of terrorism,” MENA said.

But the Islamist Anti-Coup Coalition said Friday’s turnout by its supporters proved that those who took part in the rallies “reject the bloody, military fascist coup that wants to set the wheel of history back”.

“We believe the next two days will be decisive in the history of Egypt,” the group said.

The violence came after the authorities charged Morsi with murder and formally remanded him in custody for 15 days. He had been held without charge since hours after his ouster.

Morsi stands accused of the “premeditated murder of some prisoners, officers and soldiers” when he broke out of prison during the 2011 uprising that toppled veteran strongman Hosni Mubarak, MENA said.

The ousted Islamist was also suspected of conspiring to “storm prisons and destroy them… allowing prisoners to escape, including himself”.

On June 23, a court said Hamas militants facilitated the escape of prisoners during the 18-day uprising that forced out Mubarak.

Detention orders of the type issued by the court against Morsi are usually followed by moving a suspect to prison. The military has so far kept Morsi’s whereabouts secret to avoid attracting protests by his supporters.

Gehad El-Haddad, a Brotherhood spokesman, denounced the detention order, saying Mubarak’s regime was “signalling ‘we’re back in full force.’”

Egypt, the Arab world’s most populous country of 84 million people, has been rocked by violence that has killed some 200 people since the coup.

The army has said there will be no reneging on a roadmap to fresh elections next year.

But the Brotherhood and allied Islamist groups have rejected the interim government and vowed to press their protests until Morsi is reinstated.

Western governments are watching the crisis in Egypt with growing unease, fearing the military may be angling for a prolonged power grab.

The United States has decided not to label the army’s overthrow of Morsi a “coup”, a move that would trigger an automatic freeze of some $1.5 billion (1.1 billion euros) in aid, a US official said.

Nevertheless Washington on Wednesday suspended the delivery of four promised F-16 fighter jets.

Egypt’s military is also facing a low-level insurgency in the Sinai Peninsula, which borders Israel. Militants killed a civilian and wounded five soldiers in attacks in the region on Friday. AFP

Tension as Chinese toddler dies after parking row attack

0 0
Read Time:2 Minute, 0 Second

A two-year-old Chinese girl who was thrown to the ground by a man in his 40s during a row with her mother over parking has died, state media reported Saturday.

The toddler died on Thursday night in hospital in Beijing where she was receiving treatment for the injuries suffered during the incident on Tuesday, the China Daily reported. The death has also been reported by the Beijing News.

A witness told the Beijing Times earlier in the week that the man, identified only by his surname Han, wanted to park by a bus stop in Beijing.

But the toddler’s mother, who was on foot, would not move out of his way as she was checking on her daughter at the time.

Han got out of his car and hit the woman before taking the toddler out of her pram, holding her up and throwing her “forcefully” to the ground, said the witness, a street stall owner surnamed Zhou.

“The baby made no noises after being dropped, not even a cry of pain,” the newspaper quoted Zhou as saying.

Another man came out of the car and also beat the mother before the pair drove away, it added.

Police found Han, who was released from prison this year after serving a sentence for theft, in a hot spring bathhouse and detained him, said the Legal Daily.

“Han was put in criminal detention on suspicion of intentional homicide on Thursday afternoon,” Xinhua said, citing the Beijing Municipal Public Security Bureau.

Han could face the death penalty if he is charged with murder, Chinese reports said.

Another man who also has a criminal record has surrendered to police, Xinhua reported.

The incident sparked outrage on Chinese social media as weibo users vilified the attackers and expressed grief over the toddler’s fate.

“When you come back in another life, dear baby, be sure to be born in another country,” one user wrote.

Another weibo user called the attackers “perverse animals” and a third called for the death penalty as punishment.

“For this kind of murderer with an evil nature, the death penalty should be carried out immediately,” the post said.

Social tensions have been mounting in China in recent years against the backdrop of a widening income gap and abuses of public power. AFP

Nigeria 2015: Northern elders, youths endorse Jonathan

0 0
Read Time:2 Minute, 50 Second

ABUJA- AHEAD the 2015 Presidential election, Northern elders and youths yesterday stormed the National Secretariat of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP in Abuja to endorse President Goodluck Jonathan for the exalted position, just as they pleaded with him to make himself available and vie.

The elders and youths came under the aegis of three groups, Northern Elders Forum,  North/South New Nigeria Forum, Fresh Air Continuity Group of North West and Northern PDP Youth.

The groups – led by a former Education Minister under the  late Gen Abacha’s regime and former Presidential Aspirant of All Nigerian Peoples Party, ANPP, Dr Dauda Birmah,  on a solidarity visit to the PDP national Chairman of PDP, Alhaji Bamanga Tukur – declared that the North would ever be grateful to the PDP led Government of President Jonathan for creating a conducive atmosphere that made the release of the former Chief Security Adviser to late Sani Abacha, Major Hamza Al-Mustapha possible after over 14 years of incarceration.

They however hailed Jonathan over the release from prison of Major Hamza al-Mustapha, just as they promised to get most voters in the north, especially North West to support and vote for him.

Dauda Birma, said “Goodluck Jonathan’s leadership has been rated as the best administration so far. With what Jonathan has done in Maiduguri, I can affirm that the city is now safer than most parts of the country”.

According to him, Major Mustapha’s release would not have been possible by the ordinary fiat of the court if not for the underground work of Alhaji Bamanga Tukur and the consent of the executive of the President Jonathan led administration, adding that the Groups decided to come out openly to appreciate the exemplary leadership qualities of the President Jonathan since assumption of office which had been unprecedented in the anal of Nigeria.

He said they were also at the PDP National Secretariat to correct insinuations that the People of the  North especially the North- West Zone were against his  Presidential ambition come 2015, adding that the release of Major Al-Mustapha had further fuelled the supports of the North for the re election of President Jonathan come 2015.

The leaders of the three Groups, Hajia Nana Abdulkadri, Mallam Mohammed Omeri and Ibrahim Mohammed in their remarks expressed their appreciation for the release of the former CSO and acknowledged the roles of the leadership of the Party and the President and as  well dismissed the wrong notion that the  North in general was against the Presidential ambition of Dr Jonathan come 2015.

Responding, Alhaji Tukur said that it was a thing of joy for him for three different Groups to come at the same time to appreciate openly the achievements of the PDP led administration of President Jonathan at this point in time when wrong impressions were being created that all was not well in the country.

According to him, “to me, this is democracy in action, people will agree with you,people will also  disagree with you, we can not see things the same way at all times, when we see good things we should celebrate like these groups are doing now, celebrate good things, celebrate democracy, celebrate justice, don’t be intimidated by others, this is your country, hold it firmly”.
