"How can a church own a school and the poor can't attend it...?" - actor Prince Eke

As schools all over Niogeria are about to resume for a new session, Nollywood actor Prince Eke ponders on the expensive fee of schools owned by churches. According to him:

"How can a church own a school and the poor can't attend it...? How can you be teaching people how they can make it to the kingdom of God when they can't enter your own earthly 'kingdom', built with people's tithes and donations...? How can Christian schools be the most expensive schools in Nigeria now...? How can one relate this to the term "Christianity" with regards to the "Early Christian Community" ? 

Note: Most of the good people in the world now have nothing to do with christianity, just like most Christians are far from it too.  Another academic session, and parents are paying through their noses to send the kids back to school.  A word will always be enough for the wise! Happy a nice day!"

TH? Police arrest two little boys aged 10 & 7 for allegedly raping & killing a 1 year old girl in Cameroon

Two little boys have been arrested for allegedly raping and killing a one year old girl in Cameroon. Police in Kumbe Balindo, Ndian Division in the South West region of the country paraded the boys, aged 7 and 10, who shockingly admitted to the act. But in what world can a 7 year old boy have erection enought to rape? What nonsense?

According to Cameroon Intelligence Report, after raping the girl, the little boys forced her body into a pit latrine and then hit her with a stick until she died. However, a traditional ruler in the area is of the opinion that 'the young boys cannot get an erection and are not capable of destroying the late baby’s private as medical reports indicated.'

Some also believe that someone is possibly using the children to 'hide a ritual crime.' Watch a video for the boys admitting to the crime below...

Photos: Soldiers damage eye of road safety official who pleaded for mercy for road victim being tortured in Lagos

An official of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), Segun Enikuemehin, who dared to ask some soldiers who were assaulting a civilian to desist from such a dastardly act is currently at the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital (LUTH) with one of his eyes totally damaged.‎ According to Sahara Reporters, the incident happened on Sunday August 14th.  Segun saw some military officers beating a harmless civilian. Worried that the officers could kill the man with the beating they were giving him, he approached the soldiers and pleaded that they stop beating the man and take him to the nearest police station if he had done something illegal.
The military men would not take such effrontery lightly as they descended on him and started beating him as well.

But not even the beating from the soldiers would discourage Segun as he was able to amidst his own beating, rescue the already battered man whom he then took to the Adekunle Police station at Ebute Metta. Eyewitnesses say Segun afterwards led some police officers back to the venue of the incident. Upon sighting him in the company of the policemen, the soldiers, who were by that time already cooling off at a nearby beer parlor, became even enraged and descended on him during which they plucked out his eye and threw it on the ground. The damaged eye was picked from the ground and Segun was imemmdiately rushed to the General Hospital.  Rejected upon arrival by that hospital, the blinded man reportedly asked that he be taken to LUTH.
