100-Level Female Student Of University Of Ibadan Drinks Bleach After Boyfriend Jilted Her



A 100 Level female student of University of Ibadan drank a poisonous substance called Hypo Bleach after her boyfriend jilted her. The student was reported to have drank the bleach after her boyfriend, a student of the same University, ended the relationship between them.

Here is how Tribune is reporting it:
Dumped by her boyfriend, a student of the University of Ibadan (UI),  drank bleach in anger.
The 100- Level student in the Faculty of Arts was said to have taken the solution, a product called Hypo, on Sunday when her lover, a student of the same university, told her it was over between them.
Students of the university are currently writing their second semester examination which began about two weeks ago and will be concluded by the end of this month.
Nigerian Tribune gathered from campus source that the lady was rushed to the University College Hospital (UCH), Ibadan, to save her from dying.
It was learnt further that the news of a serious damage to her kidney had spread on the campus.
A singing sensation on campus was said to have quickly waxed a hip hop lyric entitled “Hypo Love” to teach other students, especially ladies, the morals of the incident.
A source within the university said the lady is now fit and back in school after the poison was flushed out of her system at the institution’s Jaja Clinic.
However, he could not confirm why the lady decided to take the bleach as investigation into the matter was still ongoing as of press time.
We are thankful that she didn’t die as a result of her action and we hope this serves as a lesson to other young ladies not to make decisions which might have deadly consequences in such situations.

30 Nigerian Girls Trafficked Into Mali Daily – Envoy


An average of 30 Nigerian girls are being trafficked into Mali daily, the Nigerian Ambassador to the West African country, Mr. Iliya Nuhu, said on Sunday.

According to him, the girls are between the ages of 10 and 15.
Nuhu, who spoke with  the News Agency of Nigeria  in Bamako,  lamented that the problem had grown in “magnitude and sophistication’’.
The envoy said the practice was a “kind of modern day slavery’’ with Nigerians going to their villages or towns to recruit  young girls.
He said the traffickers were taking advantage of Nigeria’s economic problems to lure their victims with promises of setting them up in “very lucrative businesses abroad’’.
Nuhu said, “These people (traffickers) tell them about businesses which are not there and these girls, with very loose parental upbringing, fall for their tricks.
“They go to Nigeria to source these girls and sell them off to their cronies not only in Mali but in other countries; but we are able to work in cooperation with these countries to map out the routes the traffickers follow.
“Since August, we have assisted not less than 30 of these girls to return to the country and this is a daily routine that the embassy and the staff go through.
“From what I gathered from the Nigerian community in Mali, an average of 20 to 30 girls are being trafficked into this country every day and those we get are those who raise the alarm.’’
He said the embassy was working with the Malian  police to identify the traffickers, adding that he had written a memo to Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Abuja, to work out a strategy to solve the problem.
He  said, “We, however, call on the Federal Government to work with NAPTIP or take appraisal of what they are doing and see if there are gaps to be filled so that they can have the capacity to do this job.
“NAPTIP also should be able to have the necessary information through their own network to be able to follow up these routes and study the mode of operation of the traffickers and beat them to it.’’
NAN spoke to two of four girls rescued from the traffickers.
Joy Monday, a hairdresser, said a woman came to her hometown, Auchi, Edo, to lure her to Mali.
She said, “The woman told me that I can make between N5,000 and N7,000 fixing one person’s hair in Mali only to discover on getting  here that I am to be a prostitute and I was rescued by a man who brought me to the embassy.”
Another victim, Chidinma Ubah, said a man called Sunny, brought her to Mali, promising her that he was taking her to Europe.
She said she sought refuge in a police station when she discovered that she was to be a prostitute.
Nuhu said arrangements were being made to return the girls to Nigeria.

Bizarre: See Pic Of Goat With One Eye In The Middle Of Its Head


                  A farmer’s goat in Perundurai In Erode district has given birth to a one-eyed goat.  —DC
When  I first heard about this story, I thought the term "one-eyed" used to describe the goat above meant that the animal had lost one of its eyes, and wondered what the big deal was until I saw the picture.
Little wonder curious crowds have trooped to a farm in Perundurai, Erode district, India, where the goat was born and currently lives.

The farm owner, Kandasamy, 45, who has been breeding goats for the past 10 years, said that this was the first of such occurrence.
“I have never witnessed such an incident in the past,” he said. “A female goat gave birth to two calves, one of whom has just one eye right in the centre of its forehead.”
Vetenarians pointed out that it was an anomaly and the outcome of a genetic disorder.
According to Coimbatore VOC Park Zoo director Dr K. Asokan, it’s a genetic disorder and caused due to chromosome changes in the goat’s system. “It’s rare to see such goats in the villages,” he said
Is it me, or everything about this goat just looks wrong...*shivers*.

Catholic Priest, Allegedly Bites Fellow Priest’s Ear Off

Father Thomas Henry Byrne appeared in court Friday after he allegedly started the violent brawl when 81-year-old Father Thomas Joseph Cameron Smith wouldn't give up his parking space.
 
After a brief scuffle, Byrne reportedly told Smith to pick up an item on the ground.
 
The item was Smith's ear, according to the Daily Mail, though it took him a while to figure out what it was.
 
Smith wrapped the flesh in a tea towel and drove to a local hospital, where staffed phoned him an ambulance. He was taken to surgery, while cops went to arrest Byrne on a charge of grievous bodily harm. Byrne had a black eye when he showed up in court on Friday, according to the Independent.
 
An East Perth magistrate ordered that Byrne not go within 30 feet of Smith, who lives in the same apartment complex.
