Man arrested for stabbing love-rival to death

Follow @NaijaTalkative

A man has reportedly stabbed his rival to death in Lagos after he caught him with his lover making love.

The 27-year old man, David Omoregbe, was arrested by the police in Lagos State, Southwest Nigeria, after he allegedly stabbed and killed his rival, Kehinde Owasoye, 25, for snatching his 22-year old lover, Bolodeoku Temisan.

The incident happened at the deceased’s residence at 20, Adeojo Street, Isheri-Oshun, on the outskirts of Lagos.
The woman, Temisan, was said to be dating the two men and when they discovered, a fight ensued during which Owasoye was eventually murdered.

The lady at the centre of the controversy, was arrested with Omoregbe and charged with conspiracy and murder before a Yaba Magistrate’s court, Lagos.

We gathered from their neighbours that Temisan was dating both men until Omoregbe later discovered and warned her to stop seeing the deceased.
To ensure he won the fight, Omoregbe, a commuter bus driver decided to sponsor Temisan to learn tailoring.
But Temisan did not stop having affairs with Owasoye.

On the day the incident happened, Omoregbe was told that Temisan was at Owasoye’s house.
After he traced them there and caught them in bed; he allegedly took a pair of scissors and stabbed Owasoye. And before he could be rushed to a hospital, he died.

Omoregbe and Temisan were arrested by the police at Isheri-Oshun division and the matter was late transferred to state Criminal Investigation Department, SCID, Panti, Yaba.
They are now facing a charge of murder contrary to sections 221 and 231 of the Criminal Code Laws of Lagos State of Nigeria, 2011.

Gay Marriage and Marijuana now fully supported in U.S.A

Follow @NaijaTalkative

With huge financial supports from Microsoft CEO Bill Gates it raised $12 million for the support.
Gay couples in Washington could start picking up their marriage certificates and licenses from county auditor offices Dec. 6, a day after the election is certified.
The law doesn't require religious organizations or churches to perform marriages, and it doesn't subject churches to penalties if they don't marry gay or lesbian couples.

Washington's measure establishes a system of state-licensed marijuana growers, processors and stores, where adults can buy up to an ounce. It also establishes a standard blood test limit for driving under the influence.

"Marijuana policy reform remains an issue where the people lead and the politicians follow," said Ethan Nadelmann of the Drug Policy Alliance, which opposes the co-called "war on drugs." ''But Washington state shows that many politicians are beginning to catch up."

Estimates show pot taxes could bring in hundreds of millions of dollars a year, but the sales won't start until state officials make rules to govern the legal weed industry.

Four Teenage Nigerian girls invent generator powered by urine

Follow @NaijaTalkative

Awesome! These girls have made Daddy proud; even the Great Nigeria!
Duro-Aina Adebola (14-years), Akindele Abiola (14-years), Faleke Oluwatoyin (14-years) and Bello Eniola (15-years)

----> A liter of urine is said to give 6 hours of electricity and here's what makes it possible:

Urine is put into an electrolytic cell, which separates out the hydrogen.
The hydrogen goes into a water filter for purification, which then gets pushed into the gas cylinder.
The gas cylinder pushes hydrogen into a cylinder of liquid borax, which is used to remove the moisture from the hydrogen gas; This purified hydrogen gas is pushed into the generator.

Dear Reader, Please do not waste your urine any longer. It has turned out to be very useful in our country of 'Power Shortage'.
Thank You!

Man caught with nephew's private part in his wallet

Follow @NaijaTalkative

A man in South Africa has been arrested after he was found to be carrying genitals in his wallet - thought to be those of his missing nephew.

A police spokesperson told the BBC that after his arrest, the man took officers to a forest in Eastern Cape province where a mutilated body was found.

The teenager's head, arms and legs had been chopped off and were found not far from his torso, he said.

The 42 year old is expected to be charged with murder.

The man was questioned as he was suspected of involvement in the disappearance of his 18-year-old nephew, who had gone missing from the town of Ngcobo on Sunday.

Police spokesperson Mzukisi Fatyela said the genitals were found packed inside his wallet.

He said the motive for the killing and mutilation was not known but an investigation was under way.

When asked whether it could be linked to a "muti" killing, when witchdoctors use body parts in their potions, Mr Fatyela said: "We can't say that with certainty at the moment but the police are investigating all possibilities."

There have been widespread reports in South Africa of the illicit sale of human body parts for such purposes.

In East Africa, scores of people with albinism have been killed for their body parts in recent years.

The arrested man is expected to appear in court on today.

Mr Obidigbo Okorie, Chairman, Carpentry and Wood Design Market, Bridge-Head Markets, Onitsha, has urged the Anambra government to investigate the fire that gutted a major part of the market on Thursday.

Okorie said after the fire was put out by firefighters and members of the public that the artisans lost shops, wood and machinery worth more than N100 million.

The fire started at about 4.30 a.m. and lasted till 11 a.m.

The chairman said that 99 per cent of the shops were lost to the fire.

“I call on those affected to keep calm (as) we would follow the investigation of the incident to its logical conclusion.

“I would invite the state and local governments to come close and understand what is going on here and then know how we can be helped,’’ Okorie said.

Reacting, Mr Ugochukwu Ezeani, Chairman, Onitsha South Council Transition Committee, who visited the scene, described the incident as “unfortunate”.

Mr Arinze Nweke, a wood designer, said he lost two shops and two wood designing machines worth some N200,000.

JAMB educates candidates on Computer-Based Tests

Follow @NaijaTalkative



The Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB), on Thursday in Kaduna said only 15 per cent of candidates sitting for its examinations in 2013 would use the Computer Based Test.

Its Registrar, Prof. Dibu Ojerinde stated this in Kaduna during a campaign to promote the newly introduced method of examination.

The campaign was conducted at the State Ministry for Education, Kaduna State University, Kaduna Polytechnic, National Board for Technical Education (NBTE) and the National Teachers’ Institute.

He said the sensitisation campaign was designed to educate candidates sitting for the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examinations (UTME), on how to use the computer.

The registrar said the computer based test would only become compulsory for all candidates in 2015.

Ojerinde said that the programme was designed to migrate candidates from the use of paper and pencil in examinations to full usage of computers.

He said it would also guarantee faster release of results, assuring that candidates who sat for the examinations using the new method will receive their results 30 minutes after the examination.

The registrar added that it would also “eliminate cases of incomplete results or result blackout”.

“ It will ensure prompt delivery of raw scores and will also check examination malpractice.“

The JAMB officials had earlier visited Lagos and Rivers States for the campaign during which leaflets and other educational materials were distributed.

At the state university, the Vice Chancellor, Prof. Barnabas Qurix said the institution, which serves as venue for UTME, was fully ready for the commencement of the computer based test.

On its part, the NBTE Executive Secretary, Dr Mas’ud Kazaure, said the board would ensure that all polytechnics and technical institutions under it are equipped with relevant facilities for the test. (NAN)
