Female Students Of South Africa's Wits University Went Naked Yesterday, Baring Their Breasts In Protest Of High Tuition Fee (Photos)

<p dir="ltr">Students threw stones at police and flipped one vehicle. The university said some protesters had earlier pulled lecturers out of their offices as they prepared to restart classes after an earlier shutdown called on Sept. 20.</p>
<p dir="ltr">"We have agreed to suspend the academic program," university spokeswoman Shirona Patel said late on Tuesday. Staff at Wits - the University of the Witwatersrand - planned to open again on Monday, Oct. 10.</p>

Minister of State for Agriculture and Rural Development, Senator Heineken Lokpobiri has said a bag of rice could be as high as N40,000 by December 2016 if Nigeria fails to start producing rice.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Lokpobiri, who made this known at a town hall meeting in Yenagoa, Bayelsa State, Saturday, said that Nigeria spends about $22bn a year on importation of food into the country.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
He said, “For your information, we spend about $22bn a year importing food into Nigeria. We know how many more dollars they bought and that is why you see the price of rice going up.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
“Price of rice was may be N12,000 some months ago, but it is now about N26,000 and if we don’t start producing, by December it could be N40,000.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
“Rice matures in three months. So, this is a wake up call for Bayelsa people to take the four farms we have seriously. The federal government has four farms in the state in our records.<br />The average land you see in Bayelsa can grow rice, so the colonial masters were not wrong in their assessment when they said Niger Delta could feed not only Nigerian but also the entire West Africa sub-region.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
“Unfortunately, agriculture till today, is not a priority of the Niger Delta as far as the state governments are concerned because of oil.”</div>
<div style="border: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
He said the states in the Niger Delta had yet to give priority to agriculture the way the North-West states such as Kebbi, Jigawa, Kano as well as other states like Lagos, Ebonyi, Anambra, prioritised it.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; text-align: left; vertical-align: baseline;">
He said Anambra State for instance, was not owing salaries despite the fact that it does not have oil but raking in money by merely exporting vegetables.ď</div>

Senate President, Bukola Saraki, in a Sallah message, as he felicitates with Muslim faithful on Eid-el-Kabir, asked Nigerians to remain steadfast and committed to the cause of one, united and developed country.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #606263; font-size: 18.7px; line-height: 30.8px; margin-bottom: 16.5px;">
He observed that despite the current economic challenges, the country and its people had all that was required to come out better and stronger.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #606263; font-size: 18.7px; line-height: 30.8px; margin-bottom: 16.5px;">
The Senate President called on all Nigerians to live in harmony with one another irrespective of ethnic or religious affiliation.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #606263; font-size: 18.7px; line-height: 30.8px; margin-bottom: 16.5px;">
“The significance of the Eid-el-Kabir festival is to celebrate the true love and grace of Almighty Allah to mankind through sacrifice, devotion and faith,” he said.</div>

On his part, the Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu, also enjoined Muslims to use the occasion of the Eid-el-Kabir to pray for the nation’s quick recovery from her current economic recession, expressing confidence that Nigerians, working together, could heal the nation’s economy.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #606263; font-size: 18.7px; line-height: 30.8px; margin-bottom: 16.5px;">

<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #606263; font-size: 18.7px; line-height: 30.8px; margin-bottom: 16.5px;">

leadership of the Nigerian Senate has asked Nigerians to pray for peace and accelerated recovery of the nation’s economic.

Senate President, Bukola Saraki, in a Sallah message, as he felicitates with Muslim faithful on Eid-el-Kabir, asked Nigerians t...

She came back home at 11:00pm from a near death experience with money ritualist

<p dir="ltr">So it was with a 42-year-old mother of four, Olorunyomi (not real name). She set the whole of Academy area of Odo-Ona Elewe, Orita Challenge, Ibadan, that Friday, August 19, 2016, into wild jubilation.<br></p>
<p dir="ltr">Reason: She came back home at 11:00pm from a near death experience with money ritualists. She was kidnapped on Tuesday, August 16, after transacting business in one of the banks at Challenge, Ibadan, that fateful afternoon.<br></p>
<p dir="ltr">Olorunyomi, an events planner, was still shell shocked when she narrated her ordeal to Daily Sun. She found it difficult to comprehend why fellow human being could be so wicked as to kill a fellow human being for whatever purpose.<br>
She met a middle-aged woman at the banking hall who became very jovial with her as she asked about the welfare of her children: “I felt comfortable with her the way she was relating with me and we became friends. Afterwards, I got out of the bank and was heading for another bank at Orita Challenge.<br></p>
<p dir="ltr">“The woman beckoned on to me from a beautiful Honda Element car, introduced a girl of about 13 years old who wore a school uniform of a popular girls’ school at Molete, Ibadan, as her daughter and the man behind the wheels as her husband. She asked me to join them since they were going towards Orita Challenge.<br></p>
<p dir="ltr">“As we approached the bank, I asked the driver to stop so that I can alight but he did not. The woman looked back at me with disdain and said, ‘you don’t know what has happened to you.’ I struggled to open the door but it was locked. I thought by the time we get to the police check point at New Garage, I would be able to scream for help. But before we got there, I was already weak and could not utter a word. It was then I realized that everyone in the car could not talk including the driver.<br></p>
<p dir="ltr">“I became a bit conscious later and when I opened my eyes all I saw was ‘Welcome to Sagamu’ in one of the bill boards as the car swerved off the highway into a thick bush. We arrived at a big gate of a very beautiful mansion situated in the bush.<br>
“We were ordered to alight from the car. The man behind the wheels suddenly became conscious and was trying to ask where he was. One of our captors struck him with an object, something like a black belt, he fell and died instantly. <br></p>
<p dir="ltr">As he was being dragged to the place where his body parts would be dismembered, the woman that lured me into the car rushed at him and disposed him off his valuables like wristwatch, gold chain, wallet and his two phones.<br>
“The woman looked at me disdainfully again and said, ‘madam no matter what you are thinking, we can never meet on this planet earth again.’ I wondered how she could read or hear my thoughts easily.<br><br></p>
<p dir="ltr">“We were ushered into a large room with CCTV monitoring the Shagamu Expressway. We could see activities going on from the expressway to the point where we veered off the road.<br><br></p>
<p dir="ltr">“The man who received us was very happy and congratulated the woman for briging such a ‘large stock’ despite the fact that it was not really a ‘rush hour.’ Some of us were picked to be transported to another destination where ‘supplies’ were urgently needed. I was among them. I noticed that it was 7:05pm from the clock inside the car that was to take us to our new destination.<br>
“On arrival, we were ushered in to another compound not as big as the first house and the ring leader was impressed. He locked me in another room where I met two other victims, a woman and one Hausa man. I was asked what was my name but something inside me said I should not utter a word. <br></p>
<p dir="ltr">I kept reciting in my mind a verse from the holy Quran<br></p>
<p dir="ltr">“The ring leader said, ‘look Alhaja, stopped reciting Al Quran here, or you think I don’t hear you? Let me tell you, anyone who enters our den has been forgotten by God.’ It then dawned on me that only God could save me.<br>
“He treated me nicely and told me that all he needed from me was to utter my name with my mouth. I kept mute and he left but assured me that the next time he would come I would be the one telling him my name. <br><br></p>
<p dir="ltr">He did come back after I refused to eat the plate of Amala that was given to me. The woman I met in the room also refused to eat. The Hausa man did not only eat, but drank the water given to him and washed his face with it.<br><br></p>
<p dir="ltr">“The man appealed to me that I should eat. He then told me my name including my mother’s name to prove to me that nothing was hidden to him. All he was requesting was that I should utter it by myself, which I refused. He was also very furious at the Hausa man whom he said had given him five different names.<br></p>
<p dir="ltr">“We were there all through Thursday till the wee hours of Friday. Suddenly, the door of the room was opened by the gateman. He led three strange old men, dressed in the traditional Yoruba hunting attire with local touch lights strapped around the frontal lobe of the head into the room.<br><br></p>
<p dir="ltr">“The man who led the other two could not be less than 80 years and beckoned unto me. I woke the other two with me. The Hausa man started reciting his last prayers saying, ‘from Allah we came and to Him we shall return’ in Arabic, thinking that the end had come.<br></p>
<p dir="ltr">“It was as if something was lifted off from my body as I regained my strength and I could feel a kind of peace and comfort all over me. The old man locked the gateman inside the room and led us out of the compound into a thick bush.<br>
“According to the old man, he came to rescue us from ‘awon agbeni pa se etutu ola.’ (Those who kill for money rituals.) He led us out of the compound around at about 1a.m on Friday. He said the three of us were safe. We trekked for about two hours before reaching a riverbank.<br><br></p>
<p dir="ltr">“He made us to realise that he deliberately took us through that route. If he had allowed us to go through the pathway that leads to the highway, though shorter, but very risky, as we were bound to be recaptured. He gave me three new N500 notes that could transport us to town. He lamented that most of the fishermen that could help us across the river had gone home.<br><br></p>
<p dir="ltr">“Luckily for us, a young boy of about 18 years old who is a fisherman came back to the river bank to check his net. The old man begged him to take us across the river with his canoe and then tried to identify himself by asking me to look at his face carefully.<br></p>
<p dir="ltr">“Honestly, the man looked like one of my uncles with seven tribal marks on his cheeks. He said to me, ‘I am still alive’ and went back.<br>
“At the home of that young boy, he brought three Okada riders (motorcyclists) who charged us N500 each to take us to the nearby town where we can board easily to our various destinations. The nearest place is Ondo town. That was then I knew we must have been held hostage in one of the villages in Ondo State or around Ijebu Waterside.<br><br></p>
<p dir="ltr">“The okada riders refused to take us to a police station or a motor park for fear of us being recaptured by the kidnappers. I flagged down another car from the spot they dropped us. After narrating our ordeal to the driver, he refused to take us in for fear of us dying in his car, as he did not know if the kidnappers had poisoned us. He gave me N2,000 for us to find our way back to our destinations. But the Hausa man joined a trailer filled with cows.<br><br></p>
<p dir="ltr">“The other victim who escaped with me had been in their den for over two weeks. She told me she was kidnapped on her way to Ilesa where she was going to give her parents some gifts after receiving her salary at the end of of July. She said her driver stopped to pick someone by the roadside drenched in the rain. She said immediately the woman entered the car all of them became unconscious till they found themselves in the compound of the house they later brought me to.<br><br></p>
<p dir="ltr">“The money given to me was enough to take me to a university at Ikeji-Ile (Ayo Babalola). I met a lecturer of that school who offered to take me to Ikire while the other victim dropped at Ilesa junction to meet with her parents. I got to Iwo Road, Ibadan, around 10:00pm and managed to call my husband who came to pick me up.<br></p>
<p dir="ltr">“I know my escape is divine. I really don’t know why God favoured me so much to the extent that He showed me such a great mercy. I am sad that human being could be this wicked. I am even very sad for the people remaining in their den, especially the little girl in school uniform. My prayer is that God would deliver them and guide all of us from falling victim of ritual killers.”<br></p>
<p dir="ltr">The Divisiponal Police Officer (DPO), Orita Challenge, Ibadan, Mr. Olu Moore, was not in the office when Daily Sun visited the station. But one of his officers confirmed that the case was reported when Olorunyomi was found: “Her husband promised to come back saying they wanted to go and pray first. They have not come back since then for the police to conduct proper investigation into the matter.”<br></p>
<p dir="ltr">He said he is not in the position to talk about the spate off kidnaped in the state only the State PPRO could do that.</p>

An educationist, Mr Olajide Olunoiki, on Wednesday warned Lagos residents to avoid watching the annular eclipse of the sun with naked eyes on Thursday. Olunoiki, a Director in the Lagos State Ministry of Education, told newsmen that sighting the eclipse was injurious to naked eyes.<br>
He said that solar eclipse glasses should be worn to observe the image. Solar eclipses occur when the moon comes between the earth and the sun, lining up with the sun as seen by spectators on Earth. In a total solar eclipse, the moon lines up perfectly with the sun and blocks out all light. But in an annular eclipse, the moon does not completely cover the sun. He said that parents must ensure children are kept indoors from sighting the eclipse with naked eyes.<br>
“Eclipse is injurious to naked eyes, we strongly advice that parents should keep their children and wards from observing the eclipse without solar eye filters. “This is because children are very curious and it is advisable to get them the eye filters before the eclipse or keep them away during the eclipse time. “There is no cure to injured eyes and it is sinister,’’ he said. “If you don’t want to go out, stay indoors tomorrow. “The working class should also avoid looking at the eclipse without the solar glasses for those who can afford it,’’ he said.<br>

A Pastor and Church Member Arrested For Robbery In Lagos

<p dir="ltr"><i>The Zone 2 Police Command, Onikan, Lagos State, has arrested a 45-year-old pastor, Joseph Olude, and his church member, Rasak Raheem, for allegedly robbing in the Idiroko-Oke Odan area, a border community between Ogun State, Nigeria, and the Benin Republic.</i></p>
<p dir="ltr"><i>According to Punch, Olude and Raheem were arrested by the operatives of the Zonal Intervention Squad, after a tip-off.</i></p>
<p dir="ltr"><i>It was learnt that while the police arrested the two suspects, other members of the gang fled.</i></p>
<p dir="ltr"><i>Our correspondent gathered that on Thursday, August 11, the police received information that a robbery gang was operating in the Idiroko-Oke Odan area, and dispossessing motorists of their valuables.</i></p>
<p dir="ltr"><i>A businessman, who was moving money from Nigeria to the Benin Republic, was said to have put a distress call across to the police.</i></p>
<p dir="ltr"><i>The two suspects were thereafter arrested.</i></p>
<p dir="ltr"><i>Speaking with PUNCH Metro, Olude, a father of five children, said he owned a church, Elohim Cherubim and Seraphim Church, in the Hunbe, Ajegunle area of Ogun State.</i></p>
<p dir="ltr"><i>The pastor, who added that Raheem came to his church for a special prayer, explained that he did not know that Raheem and his friend, one Bidemi, were armed robbers and kept guns on the church premises.</i></p>
<p dir="ltr"><i>He said, “I have five children. I was arrested when the police found five guns on my premises. It was my church member, Bidemi, who invited Raheem.</i></p>
<p dir="ltr"><i>“Raheem was brought into my church in February 2016, after he was infected with a Sexually Transmitted Disease. He also owed a house rent. So, he came to live in the church. I did not suspect that he was bringing in stolen goods into the church’s premises.</i></p>
<p dir="ltr"><i>“I knew the time when someone came to collect a gun from him. Bidemi usually dressed like a policeman. I did not know that he was a robber. Now, Bidemi has fled.”</i></p>
<p dir="ltr"><i>Raheem, who hails from Abeokuta, Ogun State, said the pastor was aware that some robbers brought guns to keep with him in the church.</i></p>
<p dir="ltr"><i>He added that the gang gave him (Raheem) N20,000.</i></p>
<p dir="ltr"><i>He said, “The pastor and I are friends. I went to his church and a man called Bode from Cotonou brought the guns. I told the pastor that the guns were for safekeeping in the church and he said there was no problem.</i></p>
<p dir="ltr"><i>“About two weeks ago, Bidemi called me that he wanted to use the guns around the border area. I said he should bring N10,000 when coming and he agreed.</i></p>
<p dir="ltr"><i>“The robbers collected the guns and when they were done with the use, they paid another N10,000. I knew they used the guns to rob. It was a five-man gang.”</i></p>
<p dir="ltr"><i>The Zone 2 police spokesperson, SP Muyiwa Adejobi, said the Assistant Inspector-General of Police, Abdulmajid Ali, had ordered a thorough investigation into the case.</i></p>
<p dir="ltr"><i>He said, “The suspects operated along border areas of Ogun State, Benin Republic and even Togo. The ZIS operatives were detailed to the scene and they arrested the two suspects along Madoga Road between Nigeria and the Benin Republic.</i></p>
<p dir="ltr"><i>“The police recovered one AK-47 rifle fully loaded with 30 rounds of live ammunition, and 15 extra AK-47 ammunition. Effort is on to arrest the fleeing members of the gang.”</i></p>

A 43-year-old man, Taiwo Adio, has clubbed his wife, Yemisi, and three other persons to death with a pestle in Sokoto

<p dir="ltr">A 43-year-old man, Taiwo Adio, has clubbed his wife, Yemisi, and three other persons to death with a pestle in Sokoto, Sokoto State.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Adio on Saturday night at the Old Airport area of the Sokoto metropolis also reportedly killed Rachael Adewole, 42, Benice Adewole, 10, and Esther Badelu, 14.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Rachael, until her death, was the wife of Pastor Jacob Adewole, of Faith Baptist Church (Sanctuary of Mercy and Glory), Old Airport Road, Sokoto. Ten-year old Benice Adewole was their only daughter while Esther Badelu, was Benice’s friend.</p>
<p dir="ltr">The Sokoto Police Command Public Relations Officer, El-Mustapha Sani, who also confirmed the incident, said the suspect had been arrested and the exhibit, a pestle, recovered.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Sani said the case was under investigation at the state Criminal Investigation Department.</p>
<p dir="ltr">The corpses of the victims, however, had been deposited at the Usmanu Danfodiyo University Teaching Hospital, Sokoto, for post mortem.</p>
<p dir="ltr">When our correspondent visited the church on Sunday morning, the premise was under lock, as there was no Sunday worship service.</p>
<p dir="ltr">A church member, Oyeleke Samson, narrated that he survived the suspect’s onslaught by a whisker.</p>
<p dir="ltr">According to Samson, “The suspect mysteriously disappeared from home for two days and on his sudden return, he started behaving in a strange manner, talking incoherently.</p>
<p dir="ltr">“When the news of his return got to the church, the elated pastor’s wife, the late Rachael, prepared food and told her daughter Benice, to take the food to Taiwo Adio’s house. There, Esther Badelu decided to accompany her friend.</p>
<p dir="ltr">“Before they arrived at the place, Adio, a bricklayer had clubbed the wife, Yemisi, an auxiliary nurse, to death. When the two girls entered the house, he killed them with the pestle in his hand.</p>
<p dir="ltr">“When the two girls did not return home after a while, late Rachael decided to trace the girls to the suspect’s house, not knowing that death was lurking. When she opened the door, the suspect raised the pestle, as she turned to take to her heels, the suspect hit her on the back, she fell and she was clubbed to death.</p>
<p dir="ltr">“On instinct, I decided to go to the Mission House. I mounted my motorcycle, only for me to see the suspect in a corner, it was the screech from my motorcycle that scared him as he attempted to attack me. The only words I heard from him were, ‘You people cannot poison me.</p>
