Hit and Run : 10 Year-old Girl Crushed To Death In Benin

It was a tragic event in Benin City, Last weekend as a 10 year-old girl was crushed to death by a hit-and-run driver at Iguosa, a suburb community located along Ugbowo-Lagos Expressway.
Eyewithness got some information that the girl was knockd down by a Toyota Camry car who was on a top speed along the express road, while the girl was crossing from a blind end due to trailers parking along the road.
One of the eyewitnesses who refused to give his name, blamed the accident on the presence of heavy duty vehicles parked by the side of the road, which made it difficult for pedestrians to check properly before crossing.
“She wanted to cross to the other side of the road but she didn’t notice that a car was coming. As soon as she began to cross, the car came in full speed and hit her and she died instantly.
“Those trailers parked along the road are the cause of most of the accidents. When somebody wants to cross the road, there is no way he can see the other side of the road,” he said.
At the time of the report, the lifeless body of the girl had been removed and deposited at an undisclosed mortuary by the operatives of the Federal Road Safety Corps.
 This is a call to the state monitoring body on traffic matters to help pass directives for trailers not to park along the road as this might lead to more deadly incidence in that portion of the road.

Wonders in Nigeria !!! 18 year old boy confesses to have slept with 5 dogs

Boy Sleeps with Dogs

Humans are known to sleep with humans and not animals, this was not the case as Last week we got report of an 18year old boy who slept with a dog. Well, for those of you who didn't believe, you can hear directly from the horses mouth.The 18-year-old boy, simply identified as Ighodaro, said he has not only slept with one but 5 dogs .Ighodaro was in JSS 2 before he dropped out from school, due to the inability of his poor parents to pay his school fees.He told us:

    “I learnt welding around Iheya. I don’t know when I slept with the dog, I slept with dogs five times. Some of the dogs bit me, I have been bitten two times and each time I have a dog bite my grand father will treat me..
    When I call them, I will be rubbing their head, petting them so that they will feel free with me. I will be playing with them and they will follow me. They will bark at me some times, and when I notice that it is serious I will leave them. Any one that is friendly with me, I take that one to an uncompleted building and have sex”.
     I had a girlfriend last year but we are no longer together. I started sleeping with dogs this year around March. I don’t know what is wrong with me.None of my relations knows I sleep with dogs. In this particular case, the dog is very familiar with me; so it was easy to lure it away. While I was having sex with the dog, one man saw me and ran to inform the Odionwere. They now came to pick me and they asked the police to go and check me and see if I have any disease. I don’t know what is wrong with me”.


 Odionwere (head)of the community, Elder Clifford Igiehon, was invited to the scene and expressed shock over the incident which he described as a taboo.He said,
We have never seen this kind of thing before in this community. This is an abominable act and we don’t want the suspect to come and corrupt other people here. What he committed was a taboo. We will call the parents to come and atone the gods but the boy will go on his own, because we cannot kill him.
But we have killed the dog because that is the first thing to do. And because we don’t want this kind of taboo to happen again, we decided to hand the boy over to the police. This kind of thing has never happened before, the boy has to face the music. The parents will perform traditional rites, it is going to cost about a hundred thousand Naira.
The boy knows what he is doing, he is not mad. We know him from the beginning, he was in school before he went to learn welding; may be the parents could not pay his school fees. We were even shocked he said he has had sex with dogs five times; that will tell you he knows what he is doing”.
