The school that reeks of death



Mamundo has become a ghost town.
Everyday, Mallam Yahaya goes to work at Government Secondary School, Mamudo, where he serves as the vice principal; to meet soldiers, a few teachers and no students. His life is a nightmare as he relives the massacre of twenty-two of his students and one teacher.
Every day, since that tragic day – July 6, 2013 – he goes to school and tries to clean up evidence of the massacre. Try as much as he can, the blood remains. The surviving students are too traumatised to resume; their parents are not sure they ever will.

Heartless: OAU student gives birth & attempts to flush new born baby down the toilet in school hostel



Based on reports I acquired this morning from students of Obafemi Awolowo University, a lady student of the college gave birth in the Moremi Hostel hall toilet and attempted to flush the infant but was caught my the hall cleaners. They say the girl's name is Oyin ( surname unknown  for now) and she's a 400l student of Electrical and Electronics Engineering. The incident happened very early this morning. Based on students of the college who sent in the photo, a cleaner heard a baby crying inside among the toilet stalls and then saw blood originating from underneath the door.

She quickly went to call other cleaners around and they forced the door open. Once the cleaners entered the toilet they saw the student pouring water within the closet, the infant turned ugly, with the head within the closet. Among the women dipped her hand inside and removed the baby...A boy, who had been still quite definitely alive but bleeding from the nose. The cleaners called school management who rushed both your ex and the infant to Obafemi Awolowo University Teaching Hospital for treatment. The placenta fell while they were rushing the girl to the hospital.

I personally think this inhuman behavior deserve to face maximum jail terms for attempted murder.

Gov Rochas Okorocha To Send Uneducated Traditional Rulers and Igwes To School




Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo State has said that all the illiterate traditional rulers in their state would be given the chance to visit school to improve their ability to supply robust service with their people through the Community Government Council (CGC).

Okorocha spoke while addressing the original rulers and other stakeholders at Ahiajoku Convention Centre in Owerri, their state capital. According to the governor, a programme would be introduced next season in tertiary institutions to aid illiterate traditional rulers to obtain basic knowledge in governance.

He said: “Africa and Nigeria particularly can just only develop more if the community government council becomes stronger than the area government; local government stronger than their state government and state stronger than the Federal Government.”

Tipper crushes 16-year-old secondary school girl



The Tipper
A tipper allegedly on top speed, on Thursday crushed to death a 16 year old girl, Moridiyat Abdullateef, in Ilorin, Kwara State.
The victim was said to be a Senior Secondary One student of Government Girls Day Secondary School, Oke Suna, Ilorin.  Our correspondent learnt that Moridiyat  had gone to fetch water for her grand-father before going to school.
The source said the girl, in an attempt to cross to the other side of the road at Taiwo Isale junction, was hit by the driver, who was allegedly drunk, and had lost control of the vehicle.
The source added that the truck crushed the girl and the efforts of residents and Good Samaritans to save her life was futile as she died almost instantly.  The truck was also said to have destroyed nearby kiosks and later fell into a pit near Asa River, while the driver escaped.
Our correspondent gathered that the truck with number plate XB 482 BDU fell directly in front of the deceased’s residence- a one-storey building beside Asa river.
The father of the girl, Mr. Abdullateef Mohammed, a teacher, said though the accident was sad, he had taken it as an act of God.
