A man identified as Mr. Seidu Dan Iya has been arrested by the Adamawa State Police Command for allegedly slitting his daughter's throat. The suspect believed to be suffering from a psychological problem after an alleged long time drug abuse was arrested after a neighbour reported the incident to the police. It was further learnt that when neighbours asked the suspect why he slit his daughter’s throat he said that he just felt like doing it. The State's police spokesperson DSP Suleiman Yahaya, confirmed the arrest of Seidu and further disclosed that an investigation has been launched to establish the health condition of the suspect in police custody. Though Dr. Elkanah Patrick who treated 8-year-old Zarau Seidu at the Federal Medical Centre (FMC) in Yola said the girl has a 50-50 chance of survival, the hospital's Head of Clinical Services Dr. Yerima Suleiman Yusuf, said the hospital will treat the victim free of charge. He said: “We have a Paupers’ Fund from which we will treat this patient, because we realise that the mother is not ready and the father has a psychiatric problem.” The post Father allegedly slices daughters throat in Yola appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.

India's parliament has finally passed a bill criminalizing the controversial Muslim practice of instant divorce known as "triple talaq" and making it punishable with up to three years in prison. The age-old practice, allows a Muslim man to divorce his wife by simply saying the Arabic word for divorce, "talaq", three times. India's Upper House of Parliament passed the bill on Tuesday, July 30th, the third time the bill has come up for a vote in the upper house. In 2017, India's Supreme Court found that the controversial divorce practice was unconstitutional. Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi hailed the bill's passage on Twitter, writing:"I thank all parties and MPs who have supported the passage of The Muslim Women (Protection of Rights on Marriage) Bill, 2019 in both Houses of Parliament. They have risen to the occasion and this step of theirs will forever be remembered in India's history.This is an occasion to salute the remarkable courage of those Muslim women who have suffered great wrongs just due to the practice of Triple Talaq. The abolition of Triple Talaq will contribute to women empowerment and give women the dignity they deserve in our society."The bill becomes a law once it is signed by the president."This is historic because the reform in Muslim personal law has been mired in politics and patriarchy for several decades. I welcome the law, while stating that the objective is not to punish the man, but to ensure justice and fair play to the victim woman. Nevertheless, a law would be meaningless without deterrence," Zakia Soman, co-founder of the Indian Muslim Women's Movement, also known as the Bharatiya Muslim Mahila Andolan (BMMA) said.But it drew criticism from some Muslim politicians, who described it as an assault on followers of Islam. Asaduddin Owaisi, an MP from the opposition All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen party called the bill "as one part of many attacks on Muslim identity and citizenship"The post Indianparliamentcriminalizesthe controversial Muslim practice that allows a man to divorce his wife instantly by saying "triple talaq" appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.

I’m very deeply affected by this and I know the people here are also heartbroken", Joe Vasquez, bishop of the Austin Diocese said as the church was burning. Over 250 residents were said to part of the Visitation congregation. It’s unclear where they will be gathering in the wake of the fire. The church said it will be accepting donations to help rebuild. “This architectural beauty is now a loss and that’s what saddens all of us here” Vasquez added. ATF agents and the local State Fire Marshal’s Office were investigating the blaze Tuesday to see if there was any criminality involved. It was not immediately clear how it started.The post Historic 125-year-old church mysteriously burns to the ground in Texas appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.

One of President Buhari's witnesses at the Presidential tribunal on Tuesday July 30, denied they submitted their certificates to the Nigerian army. Maj.-Gen. Paul Tarfa (retd.) was led in as one of President Buhari's witnesses alongside Chief of Staff (COS) Abba Kyari and Suleiman Maiadua, a retired civil servant that said he graduated with Buhari in 1961.

Confirming that their medium of instruction after being enlisted into the Nigerian army in 1962 “was English language and English language alone", Tarfa also said that he and Buhari “passed the examinations in flying colours.” He identified some of those they enlisted into the Army with as Brigadier Ola Oni, Brigadier Duro Ajayi, Col. J. C. Ojukwu, the late Brigadier Abdullahi Shelem and the late Maj. Shehu Yar’Adua. When asked if they submitted their certificates to the Nigerian army while being cross-examined by counsel for the Independent National Electoral Commission Yunus Usman (SAN), he said nothing like that happened. Usman: “You submitted all your school certificates to the Nigerian Army when you were enlisted?”Tarfa: “There was nothing of such.” Tarfa also said Buhari has authority over all military formations as commander-in-chief when cross-examined by Atiku's lead counsel Livy Uzokwu who thanked him for being truthful. Recall that President Buhari's secondary school certificate controversy made the headlines in 2015.

A video going viral online shows Mississippi police officers harassing a black man and using brutal force on him. In the video, a police officer is seen pointing a gun at the black man while giving him conflicting instructions. The black man seemed afraid at this point and his girlfriend can be heard in the background warning him not to move at all so they won't have an excuse to shoot him. 
The girlfriend is then heard asking the officer which he wants; for her boyfriend to get on the ground or for him to get his license. Confused, the boyfriend put his hands in the air where the officer could see it. Soon another officer joins them and lunges at the African American man then begins to choke him. Both police officers then wrestled the man to the ground as he kept screaming that he did nothing. His girlfriend, who was filming, can also be heard screaming in terror.

The child was filmed desperately clinging onto a balcony of a building in Chongqing city's Jiulongpo district on Monday afternoon, July 29.

Nollywood actress Biodun Okeowo 'Omobutty' in her advice to upcoming acts revealed that acting doesn't pay her bills. The actress stated that there is need for a side business because the money paid for each movie role is usually not enough for most entertainers with huge responsibilities. Advising upcoming actresses to have a legitimate side business, build quality relationships, become serious minded business women and expect less from any man, Biodun Okeowo also admitted that acting only gives recognition, access and in some cases very supportive fans. She wrote; Many times I have been asked if acting is what pays my bills, I'm here to tell you the truth!! It is not.The money most of us collect is not enough to foot all our bills, especially those of us with huge responsibilities, reason some of us started paying attention to businesses years ago. That is why someone like me have done less movies and focused more on businesses that is more profitable.Acting will give you name, recognition, often more access and in some cases very supportive fans. My advice is as you come into this industry or continue in this job, have a legitimate side business, build quality relationships, become a serious minded business woman and expect less from any man.I have had people talk about men making women in the industry rich and I wonder what man can make you rich and help you sustain wealth like a business will do.So my advice again, focus on yourself building legitimate businesses, all the rest will just be an addition. If you are lucky to meet a man who adds more to your wealth, all well and good, please grab it with both hands. There's nothing wrong with addition, ogun subtraction ni ka ma ri (may we not encounter subtraction IJN)...

Abba Kyari was one of the three witnesses called in by President Buhari's legal team led by Wole Olanipekun (SAN) after they tendered 26 sets of documents.

The Islamic Movement in Nigeria a.k.a Shi’ites on Tuesday accused President Buhari of having the support of Saudi Arabia hence the proscription of the group. Ibrahim Musa, the group's spokesperson in an interview with Punch alleged that there is a plan to eliminate its leader Sheikh Ibrahim El-Zakzaky hence the move to push the Islamic sect underground. “He wants to kill our leader. He wants to force us to go underground so that he could finish up the country by embarking on massive destruction and killing of innocent Nigerians and security personnel in our name.“It was among the conditions he was given by the foreign foes of Nigeria, especially the Wahhabi/Salafi regime of Saudi Arabia.“No degree of persecution by these sponsors of Boko Haram and herdsmen can force us to go underground.“The public and the international community should know that the Buhari regime is dominated by Boko Haram and herdsmen ideologies who are pathological enemies of Shi’ites Islam and Muslims.“All the terrorist groups in the world who claim to be Sunni Muslims are not real Sunnis. They are Salafists (ex-communicators) who share the same ideology with the president and majority members of cabinet. This is because most of the victims of Boko Haram and their foreign brethren in Syria, Iraq, Mali, Somalia, Libya etc are mainstream Sunnis, Shia and Christians" Musa said.

President Buhari claimed victory over Boko Haram insurgents as his administration marked the 10th year the terrorists started off its attacks in the north-east region. Insisting that Boko Haram terrorism has been degraded and defeated, the Presidency claimed that “what we have now is a mixture of remnants of the Boko Haram, fugitive criminals and the Islam in Maghreb together with West African terrorists bonding together.” The statement released by President Muhammadu Buhari’s Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Mr Garba Shehu reads; TEN YEARS OF BOKO HARAM: THIS HOW FAR THE BUHARI ADMINISTRATION HAS COMEThe position of the Nigerian government is that the Boko Haram terrorism has been degraded and defeated. The real Boko Haram we know is defeated.What we have now is a mixture of remnants of the Boko Haram, fugitive criminals and the Islam in Maghreb together with West African terrorists bonding together. This is a fall out of the collapse of the Libyan State, and from farther away, of the Islamic State in Iraq, Syria and Lebanon. They are taking advantage of our porous Sahelian borders.As a consequence of these international gangs, we have seen an increase of trans-border crimes and the proliferation of small arms in the Lake Chad Basin area. Outrages are common in Niger, Mali, Chad and Cameroon.Nigeria is a large country covering nearly one million square kilometres. This is roughly equivalent to the size of France and Germany put together. In addition to our porous borders, in the neighbouring Sahel-Sahara region, a lot of ungoverned areas provide haven for terrorists’ occupation and training.Without the tremendous efforts of our armed forces and the joint operations by the Nigeria-led Multinational Joint Task Force, MNJTF, formed by the countries of the Lake Chad Basin, this single problem of illegal arms flow would have been much worse.At the moment, the Nigerian government under President Muhammadu Buhari has made the country safer than it met it. In 2015 when he took power, Boko Haram terrorism was active in nearly half the number of states in the country. They controlled a territory the size of Belgium, with a flag and systems of administration and taxation of their own. Emirs and Chiefs had fled their domains along with hundreds of thousands of ordinary citizens. Such is no more; they have been taken from them.At present, terrorist activities have been confined to the remote, rural agrarian areas of Borno State and pockets of outrages in Adamawa and Yobe States.As the situation develops, our fantastic armed forces are changing their tactics. Just recently, they launched “Super Camps.” The essence of this is to act proactively and respond quickly to the changing nature of terrorism.In addition to the additional support the government of Nigeria is receiving from friendly countries across Europe, United States and the Middle East, the Nigerian government is spending large sums of money in weapons procurement to keep our military in good fighting shape.While the military arsenal is not something you pay for and get, requiring mostly long-time orders, weapons will come in accordance with the terms of contracts. This country is expecting the commencement of the delivery of Super Tucano fighter jets, very effective in this kind of warfare, beginning next year from the United States.The administration has embarked on an ambitious electronic/digital border monitoring scheme to curtail the porosity of the borders and, working with the UN agencies, the World Bank, the Islamic Development Bank, donor agencies and friendly countries, has started providing solutions to backwardness in development and poverty in the sub-region because at the very heart of recruitment schemes of the terrorists lies the issue of poverty.A few weeks ago, the administration inaugurated the Northeast Development Commission, to fast track development and poverty eradication in the affected areas.The Buhari administration is strongly encouraged by successes recorded so far by our armed forces and the MNJTF, and is optimistic that in the same way as our military defeated the Boko Haram, so would the ISWA terrorism be defeated. This is coming barely 72 hours after Boko Haram insurgents killed over 60 mourners at a village in Borno State.

The Lagos State Government has allayed the fears of motorists over the planned four-month repair works on Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, saying that adequate measures have been put in place by the present administration to effectively manage the impending traffic situation.

The Permanent Secretary explained that the area undergoing repairs will have floodlights and flashing lights placed in strategic places to aid vehicular movement at night, adding that having the whole area lit at night, apart from safety purposes, is also to ensure that Julius Berger completes the repair work within the stipulated period. He also highlighted other measures already planned by the State government to include the display of advance warning signs; day and night emergency response crew; dummy flagman to direct motorists and slip road provided on both sides of the carriageway. Salaam added that the diversion of traffic is also earmarked before the first bridge and that motorists coming from Kara will be diverted to the other side (outward Lagos) where an extra lane will be created; once work is done on that section, the same process will be replicated on the other side by creating an extra lane for vehicular movement. While assuring motorists of the readiness of the Lagos State government to effectively manage the traffic situation during the period, the Permanent Secretary solicited for the understanding and cooperation of all road users and urged everyone to obey all traffic officials and signs for the entire duration of the reconstruction.The post Lagos State government speaks on planned four-month closure of Lagos-Ibadan Expressway for repair works appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
A British man managed to dodge security and climbed to the top of a ferris wheel in an amusement park in Italy where he stripped naked then jumped 150ft to his death. The man, understood to be in his 50s, took his life yesterday, July 29, in the Italian holiday resort of Rimini on the Adriatic coast. One shocked eyewitness told The Sun: ''It was horrible. He dodged security and then climbed to the very top of the wheel. It was a summer night and so the area was still packed with people. 'Once at the top he took his clothes off and then a few minutes later he jumped and as he came down he hit several part of the wheel which had been stopped by the operator. ''It was terrible there were loads of kids still around and they all saw what happened. The police and paramedics were at the scene pretty quick but there was nothing that could be done.'' 
A police spokesman confirmed the incident, saying: ''We are investigating the circumstances of how a British man in his 50s was found dead at the foot of the ferris wheel in Rimini. ''A file is being prepared for the local magistrate but there is no suspicion of anyone else being involved."

Katy Perry has lost to Christian rapper Flame in a copyright infringement trial. A federal jury in Los Angeles on Monday ruled that Katy Perry's 2013 song Dark Horse violated copyright infringement law in its similarity to the 2009 song Joyful Noise from Flame, a Christian rapper. Flame, whose real name is Marcus Gray, filed the suit in 2014 with two other authors of the song. He claimed in the suit that Dark Horse incorporated beats and instrumentals that paralleled those in Joyful Noise. But Katy Perry's lawyers told the court that the parts of the song Flame and his team cited were musical basics, and that the trickle-down effect of a loss in the suit would have a negative impact on the industry. Perry's lawyer Christine Lepera told the court last week: "They're trying to own basic building blocks of music, the alphabet of music that should be available to everyone." Katy Perry and Dark Horse co-writer Dr. Luke both took the stand at the week-long trial, claiming they never heard of Flame and were not listeners of Christian music. But Flame's legal team argued their client had significant exposure prior to the release of Dark Horse in 2013, as Joyful Noise had amassed millions of plays on Spotify and YouTube; and the album it was included on, Our World Redeemed, received a Grammy nomination for Best Rock Or Rap Gospel Album. The trial ended in favour of Flame. The next step in the legal process will enter the penalty phase, in which the nine-person jury will determine the award for the copyright infringement violation, according to the AP.
