A 30-year-old man, Alasan Audu, has reportedly raped his new wife to death after she denied him sex for 20 days after their wedding. Audu reportedly raped 17-year old Hansa’u to death on the 21st April, 2020, at Kankarelu village in Ringim Local Government Area, Jigiwa State. The spokesman of the Command, SP Abdu Jinjiri, who confirmed the incident last Thursday said the teenage wife had another person she had in mind but her parents betrothed her to Audu she never wanted to get married to.

Jinjiri said the Police removed the corpse and took to the hospital where it was confir...

COVID-19 UPDATE: America President Donald Trump has approved $2.5million for Mass Production of Madagascar herb Medicine for COVID-19 . In spite of the fact that World Health Organisation (WHO) discrimination against Madagascar herb drug for CORONAVIRUS, Donald Trump has expressly approved a whole sum of $2.5 Million for the mass production of the vaccine. Donald Trump is more concern about finding solutions to the problem of COVID-19 than racial discrimination at this time. This is a good development.

The airwaves was yesterday polluted by the shenanigans that occurred at the residence of former deputy governor of Edo State, Chief Lucky Imasuen. Edo people were bombarded by news of the near fisticuffs between members of APC loyal to their national chairman Comrade Adams Oshiomhole when they attempted to nominate their factional candidate for the position of governor. But that is not our concern! We are saddened that APC in total disregard to the Covid-19 rules in place to stem the spread, still gather in their hundreds without face mask, sanitizers and social distancing protocol not adhered to in a private residence to hold a congress. With the rise in positive tests in Edo and the fatalities we have had, as key stakeholders in the existence, survival and future of our dear state, we condemn the attitude and action of the APC members and the government's response and lack thereof. Their behavior is in breach of the regulations put in place to stem the spread of t...
