If you live around Ikorodu, Lagos, please take note of the woman in this picture.

Many residents believe there is something unusual about her because of her striking features, especially her oddly shaped ears and feline-like eyes.

According to local accounts, every June since 2021, a few days before the Oró Festival, this mysterious woman has been seen wandering through different parts of Ikorodu with a child strapped to her back, always wearing the same outfit.

She has reportedly been sighted in Odoguyan, Imota, Irawo, Ebute, Idera, Bayeku, and several other communities, often on the same day and around the same time. No one seems to know who she is, where she comes from, or what her mission is.

The most unsettling part? She never speaks.

She simply appears, walks through the area, and vanishes without a trace.

Residents of Gberigbe claim that local vigilantes encountered her late one night while she was walking along a deserted road. They said that when a flashlight was pointed directly at her face, what appeared to be a third eye suddenly became visible on her forehead.

Witnesses further alleged that the child on her back seemed abnormal, describing strange movements and sounds that left them terrified.

The woman reportedly showed no fear. Instead, she calmly walked toward the vigilantes, causing them to flee in panic.

When they later returned with reinforcements, she had disappeared.

An old local tale even speaks of a mysterious woman with similar features who was allegedly seen decades ago before a major national crisis. Whether fact, folklore, or mere coincidence, stories about her continue to spread across Ikorodu and neighboring communities.

Have you ever encountered a mysterious figure like this during the night?

Whatever the truth may be, the story remains one of the most chilling urban legends circulating in Ikorodu today 📰📰

People don’t understand politics. Perez called this election for one reason, timing.

If he had waited until 2027, he would have been walking into a fight he might not win. For Riquelme to pull about 35% now, without having years to build a stronger campaign, tells you everything. Give him another year, give him more visibility, more allies, more dissatisfied voters, and that number could have become a winning number. That’s how politics work.

Perez saw the trend before everyone else did. The smartest politicians don’t wait for the storm to arrive, they move before the clouds fully gather.

By calling the election early, he forced Riquelme to fight before he was truly ready. He didn’t just win an election, he interrupted a movement. Momentum in politics is everything, and once it’s broken, rebuilding it is never guaranteed.

That’s why the result is bigger than the percentage itself. Perez didn’t just secure another term, he just prevent the emergence of the only challenger capable of seriously threatening his hold on power.

Smart political play, no wonder he’s the Greatest modern Club President.

Netflix cancelling 1899 after that finale should be studied in war crimes class.

They gave us the wildest mind-bend since Dark then said 'nah, too expensive.' BRING BACK MY SIMULATION SHIP.

The real version of this scene is worse than the movie.

In the actual event from Kyle's autobiography, insurgents killed a combatant carrying an RPG. Someone came to retrieve the launcher. Kyle shot him too. Then they sent a child. Maybe 10 or 12 years old. Kyle had the kid in his scope and a legal right to fire. Rules of engagement at the time authorized lethal force against anyone holding a crew-served weapon on sight. No warning required.

He didn't shoot. In a TIME interview years later he explained it in nine words: "That day I just couldn't kill the kid."

Eastwood changed the scene for the film. In the movie, the boy wanders over and picks up the RPG on his own, Kyle whispers "don't you pick it up," and the kid drops it. Relief. Clean resolution. The audience exhales.

In reality there was no clean resolution. The combatants deliberately used the child as a retrieval tool because they'd watched Kyle kill two adults in sequence and calculated that a sniper wouldn't shoot a 10-year-old. They were right. Kyle called it one of the hardest moments of his career. Not because he almost pulled the trigger. Because he knew the kid would probably be sent back again tomorrow.

The film made $547M worldwide on a $58M budget, became the highest-grossing war film ever released, and beat Hunger Games as the top domestic earner of 2014. Bradley Cooper got an Oscar nomination. Kyle was murdered at a Texas shooting range in 2013 before the film opened. He was 38.

The scene that traumatized audiences was the version Eastwood made less traumatizing.

Movies like Russian Ark and Hard to be god amaze me because without a magnitude of extras , the movie won't serve its purpose.

A film so ambitious and large-scale that even the Soviet government stepped in to help fund its completion.

Making music is great but creating a score for a movie and it actually becomes iconic is God sent.
