do you people know that in many public secondary schools, part of the 'right of passage' for SS3 boys is assaulting their female counterparts on the day they write their last papers. the girls are aware and on that day they will wear thick denim shorts under their skirt and t-shirts underneath their uniforms.
Few days before I came to Canada I was at GT bank in Maraba trying to finalize my banking details for travel
We were on a very packed queue waiting
I could feel this man behind me pressing himself against me and assaulting me right there in public
This is what the vast majority of women in the world have to endure on a daily basis
Constant sexual assault and harassment
This is why I say all the time that I don’t blame extreme feminists
I may not agree with their generalist opinions of men hating but I promise you they have a very valid reason for their outrage
Women are not seen as people but as objects for men to fulfil their vile and disgusting lusts
1 in every two women have been sexually assaulted at one point in their lives
Imagine being molested by your father or your uncle or a cousin?
How won’t you grow up to hate men when the very people that are to protect you have hurt you the most?
Imagine a culture where for 7 days, they say if you’re caught outside, random men can r@pe you repeatedly?
A group of sick twisted psychopaths sit down and actually convince people that this is their culture and they women are blamed for coming out.
If this is done publicly, can you imagine what happens to women behind closed doors?
Even little girls are not safe
It took a whole nation coming out to shout before Ochanya got any semblance of justice
Do you know how many Ochanyas are roaming around
As a nation, we have failed the Nigerian woman.
Big time.
Nigerians please we need justice for Elozino Joshualia Ogege. My secondary school friend. She wasn’t just a classmate, she was my friend we sat together in school. She was a decent girl. Elo was not wayward.
They killed her Nigerians. They plucked her eyes while she was alive, breast and heart before she died.
She was a brilliant student, a first-class student from 100 level to 300 level at Delta State University Delsu.
She only went to look for a house to rent Nigerians😭
She told a security man working in DELSU, Onoriode (Onos), who had access to the school environment that she was looking for a house, he then told her he would help her get accommodation. That was how he lured her. Delsu claimed they are contract staff from a security company. Guess what? This security man is an Ex-convict.
He did not act alone.
He worked with other Yahoo boys including Desmond and their gang and with the help of a security supervisor identified as Nwosisi Benedict Uche. The mastermind was a Yahoo boy who came from Ghana, and got those Yahoo boys to look for a girl for ritual for him. He had 2 houses already in Abraka. Elo was not their first victim.
They planned it.
They waited for her inside the school environment, campus 3, overpowered her by putting something on her face and took her away.
They drove her out of Abraka into a bush.
According to their own confession, Elozino was crying and begging them to let her go even after they took her eyes alive she was still begging them. 😭
But they did not stop.
They killed her and removed parts of her body for ritual purposes to use for what they call “Yahoo Plus” money rituals.
They took those parts to a native doctor identified as Ojokojo Robinson Obajero, who they believed would perform money rituals for them.
The police tracked her phone and arrested them after the family reported she was missing because they couldn't reach her.
The Delta State Police PRO, DSP Andrew Aniamaka, confirmed that the suspects confessed and that the crime started as a missing person case before turning into a murder investigation.
Even the Commissioner of Police at the time, Muhammad Mustafa, confirmed arrests and said they were ritual killers.
One of the masterminds even died while trying to escape arrest.
But since 2018… what has happened? Elon have had no justice since 2018.
The case has been in court. Adjournment after adjournment.
Delay after delay. Years have passed. No clear justice. Are they bringing the judge?
My friend left her house to look for accommodation and never came back.
She trusted the wrong person a security man inside her own school. Delsu refused to show concern for their negligence. How can you employ an Ex-convict? Why would a security company employ an Ex-convict?
Elo is gone we know but we want justice. And till today, it feels like justice is still being delayed.
Nigerians, how long will this continue? How long will young girls keep dying like this? How long will cases like this be forgotten?
Please speak up. Please don’t let this case die. Please people I'm begging y'all to help us speak. They already confessed to doing it. They should have been sentenced to death already. All the people involved.
Help us cry for justice @Hybrid_Ola@_meera__abdul@AdageorgeA@oku_yungx@Austeiin@lilyally98@instablog9ja
This is the news on BBC. It's everywhere on the Internet too

In 2026, there’s a RAPE FESTIVAL currently ongoing in Ozoro. Victims neither be name nor accounted for.
These are the very few cases that made it to the social media. The only things that the victims have in common, is a vagina. Babies, old women, sluts, prudes, sex-workers, girlfriends, in their homes, in the church, in the mosque, in the bush, in a bus, in a school… they just need to exist.
“Cover yourself, dress properly, mind where you go”… some where covered, some didn’t need to be cover because they were babies, some went to church, some were just commuting, some didn’t even go anywhere because they were in their house.
I live in a remote village somewhere in England.
I'm not even joking when I say nowhere in Nigeria is more organised or near organised than this little town, no GRA, no city hub, Ikoyi, Banana Island, Asokoro etc is run as efficient as this village.
It’s been over a year since I got here. Light has not gone off once. The only time light threatened to, there was announcement of a storm coming and my landlady told me I would find some candles in the store and I should try use the gas cooker to start a flame if the lights go out, but the lights would come back in 10 minutes if I could wait.
News flash, the storm battered and roared, yet the light did not go out.
On my way here from London, I used the bus, when we left the urban centres, there were telephone booths every few measured distances along the express, everything works, everything is working.
There is no excuse for light, potholes, guy everything dey work!!, everything dey work!!!
All the systems are working, law and order is in order.
These politicians have kids here, they visit them, they see how everything works here and then they leave to create even more suffering, my question is why don't you do the same in your house?
Is it a pact with the devil?
When growing up, atleast when we visited someone and we saw what we liked at their place, we adopted it when we returned home.
This entire comparison is of Big Nigeria vs a Village of 5,000 people, the village even has a list of everyone living in it, that you can find online, the bus stop in this village get screen wey go tell you when the next buses are due!!!!! If the bus will be late, you get a notification on the app, the buses are synced with Google map and Apple maps.
Yet you are a Nigerian living in Nigeria, or ran from Nigeria and you are still defending APC, you should be angry, ready to storm the streets, ready to show them shege, be like Iran, be like Nepal.
My hatred for Nigeria, for how it is run knows no bounds, and I equally hate the docility of Nigerians even more, Nigerians were scared to come out in 2020 cos they didn't want to die, even in 2023 after the election was rigged and their futures stolen.
But can you count how many Nigerians, foreigners have died in Nigeria since Endsars as a direct result of bad governance.
Many of them, the same people scared of dying in a protest but dying anyway from something as avoidable as (think of the flimsiest reason, it has killed scores of Nigerians).
You open your fridge to drink cold water, and you take a sip. But instead of water, it tastes like the Egusi soup you cooked three days ago?
Why?
You think it’s just the fridge smelling?
My dear, it’s not o. In fact, it’s a warning sign.
A Gen Z joined the team.
Week one.
During onboarding, the manager said,
“We sometimes stay late during peak periods.”
Gen Z nodded.
Then asked,
“Is that paid… or just expected?”
The room went quiet.
- No attitude.
- No rebellion.
- Just a question.
Later that day, HR mentioned “growth opportunities.”
Gen Z replied,
“Does growth include raises, or just more responsibility?”
Again, silence.
- No laziness.
- No entitlement.
- Just clarity.
That’s when the team realized something.
When people say
“Gen Z is lazy,”
what they really mean is:
Gen Z watched old generation
- skip meals,
- miss birthdays,
- work weekends,
- and burn out
only to be told
“budgets are tight”
and “be grateful you have a job.”
So Gen Z chose differently.
- They don’t romanticize overwork.
- They don’t confuse suffering with ambition.
- They don’t trade health for praise.
They still work hard.
They just refuse to work for nothing.
It’s not laziness.
It’s pattern recognition.
And honestly,
after everything old generation went through…
Can you really blame them?
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, who recently lost her 21-month-old son, has released a statement detailing the circumstances surrounding his death.
ARISE News reached out to Adichie’s media team, who confirmed that she did author the statement. According to her representatives, the message was originally sent privately to family members and a few close friends.
"My son would be alive today if not for an incident at Euracare Hospital on January 6th.
We were in Lagos for Christmas. Nkanu had what we first thought was just a cold, but soon turned into a very serious infection and he was admitted to Atlantis hospital.
He was to travel to the US the next day, January 7th, accompanied by Travelling Doctors. A team at Johns Hopkins was waiting to receive him in Baltimore. The Hopkins team had asked for a lumbar puncture test and an MRI. The Nigerian team had also decided to put in a 'central line' (used to administer iv medications) in preparation for Nkanu's flight. Atlantis hospital referred us to Euracare Hospital, which was said to be the best place to have the procedures done.
The morning of the 6th, we left Atlantis hospital for Euracare, Nkanu carried in his father's arms. We were told he would need to be sedated to prevent him from moving during the MRI and the 'central line' procedure.
I was waiting just outside the theater. I saw people, including Dr M, rushing into the theater and immediately knew something had happened.
A short time later, Dr M came out and told me Nkanu had been given too much propofol by the anesthesiologist, had become unresponsive and was quickly resuscitated. But suddenly Nkanu was on a ventilator, he was intubated and placed in the ICU. The next thing I heard was that he had seizures. Cardiac arrest. All these had never happened before. Some hours later, Nkanu was gone
It turns out that Nkanu was NEVER monitored after being given too much propofol. The anesthesiologist had just casually carried Nkanu on his shoulder to the theater, so nobody knows when exactly Nkanu became unresponsive.
How can you sedate a sick child and neglect to monitor him? Later, after the 'central line' procedure, the anesthesiologist casually switched off Nkanu's oxygen and again decided to carry him on his shoulder to the ICU!
The anesthesiologist was CRIMINALLY negligent. He was fatally casual and careless with the precious life of a child. No proper protocol was followed.
We brought in a child who was unwell but stable and scheduled to travel the next day. We came to conduct basic procedures. And suddenly, our beautiful little boy was gone forever. It is like living your worst nightmare. I will never survive the loss of my child.
We have now heard about two previous cases of this same anesthesiologist overdosing children. Why did Euracare allow him to keep working? This must never happen to another child".
Nestlé has recalled these baby products.
So before you mix that next bottle for your baby, read this thread carefully as it concerns their well being.
If you feed your baby NAN, SMA, or Alfamino, a toxic bacteria has been found in some batches. And you might have it in your house right now.
You see, Nestlé has issued a massive global recall for several baby formulas (products in the image above) because they found a toxin called Cereulide (from Bacillus cereus bacteria) in some batches.
This toxin causes severe nausea and vomiting in babies. And the scary part is that boiling water does NOT kill it. The toxin is heat-resistant. So even if you prepare the formula correctly, if the powder itself is contaminated, your baby is at risk.
Now, NAFDAC has not released a specific alert for Nigeria yet. BUT our markets are porous. And people import ‘UK SMA’ and ‘Imported NAN’ every single day. So if you buy your formula from supermarkets that stock imported goods, or you bought it abroad, you need to check the last stock to see if your tin look like any of those products.
If yes, go to Nestle’s UK Website (SMA & Alfamino) and Nestle’s MENA Website (NAN) to verify if your batch does not fall under the recalled ones.
If your batch code matches the ones on that list, please DO NOT USE IT.
And please, don't keep this information to yourself.
If you have a friend, sister, or neighbor who uses SMA, NAN, or Alfamino, retweet this or send this to them NOW.
You might be saving a baby from poisoning today.
WOMEN, YOUR 12-14 MENSTRUAL VISITORS FOR 2026 WILL SOON START KNOCKING.
ONE MENSTRUAL CYCLE AT A TIME.
New Year, New Lining: An Ode to the Womb That Tries Again
Dear @thechaifairy ,
I read your post and I smile first... see how positive you are🫂... and I smile deliberately becausde joy around menstruation is still a small rebellion, and because women are still taught, quietly and persistently, to be ashamed of the evidence that their bodies work.
As a gynaecologist, I would draw closer, not correct her, not dim the sparkle, not sterilise the moment with too much science too quickly. I would lean in, the way we do when something true is being said, even if it is being said with fairy emojis and laughter.
Dear lady, your uterus has indeed turned a page. And yes, new year, new lining, new possibilities.
Welcome, all women on this green planet. Welcome to another year of cycles and pauses, and of bleeding and becoming. Welcome to another twelve to fourteen menstrual flows, another quiet conversation between hormones and hope. Another year in which the body says not yet, and then, with astonishing patience, prepares again.
Menstruation still remains the weeping of a disappointed uterus, not angry, not broken, just honest. A uterus that prepared a home and found it empty, and so it lets go, and then, because it is resilient and because it is faithful to its design, it begins again. And there is something tender in that repetition. There is something brave in that hope.
Let me say this gently, the way I say it in clinic rooms and delivery suites, where truths must be spoken without drama and without shame. Your period is not dirt. It is not punishment. It is physiology doing its sacred work.
And so, a few reminders, soft ones, practical ones, drawn from medicine and from care.
Menstrual hygiene matters.
Change pads or tampons regularly, every four to six hours, not out of fear, but out of respect for your body. If you use menstrual cups, wash them properly and sterilise them between cycles. Clean the vulva with water, simple, unscented, kind.
The vagina does not need perfumes or punishment. It already knows what it is doing.
For cramps, listen, do not fight your body as though it were an enemy. Warmth helps; a hot water bottle is still medicine. Gentle movement matters, even when you would rather disappear into the mattress. Anti-inflammatory pain relief can help when needed, taken safely and early. And rest. Rest is not laziness; it is biological wisdom.
And know your normal. Pain that stops you from living, bleeding that soaks through everything, cycles that steal your breath, these are not badges of strength. They are nnot proofs of womanhood. They are reasons to seek care. You deserve comfort, and you deserve answers.
So to this young lady who posted that line with laughter and lightness: keep your joy. Keep your humour. Keep naming your body with tenderness and with play.
And to every woman reading this, bleeding today, waiting tomorrow, or remembering yesterday, may 2026 be gentle to your wombs.
May your cycles be kind. May you bleed without shame, and rest without apology, and seek help without fear. New year. New lining.
Same miraculous you.
