April 22 was the date of arrival for the largest infant delivered at Massachusetts General Hospital in more than a decade. Baby Carisa Ruscak who surprised every one with her weight of 14.5 pounds had her father, Bryan Ruscak in the delivery room with her mother, Caroline Ruscak.

The new mum who was said to have had her "big" baby via a Caesarean section said:

"I heard the weight and I was like, 'Oh my God.' It validated me because I was in a lot of pain when I was pregnant, so to hear the size, it made sense."

Baby Carisa's father, Bryan said:

 

"When she came out at 14 and a half pounds, I couldn't believe it. I took a picture of the scale just to document it because I couldn't believe how big she was. And long too -- 22 inches is long. That's what we like long and big. That's what I am,"

"I've been teased a lot so I'm a good sport, no problem with me long as they don't say anything bad about my little girl.”

"Big and beautiful: Claudia and Carisa. I'll be in trouble in a few years, but that's OK. I feel very lucky,"

Jonathan More Interested In Second Term Ambition Than Tackling Boko Haram – Soyinka

 

Nobel Laureate, Professor Wole Soyinka, has criticised President Goodluck Jonathan over his recent political visit to Kano State barely 48 hours after the Nyanya bomb blast and the abduction of school girls in Chibok in Borno State.

Soyinka said it was unfair for Jonathan to have abandoned victims of the Nyaya Motor Park explosion for a political rally in Kano just barely 24 hours after the incident.

Soyinka who stated this while speaking at the main opening of the Port Harcourt UNESCO World Book capital, accused Jonathan of having interest in attending a political rally than tackling the Boko Haram menace.

While urging him to face the problem of Boko Haram uprising and stop concentrating on his re-election campaign, the Nobel Laureate expressed sadness over the trauma the abducted students were passing through. He said:

“Permit me to impose on the leadership of this nation a simple straightforward exercise in empathy. I want you to imagine yourself in a hospital ward; one among the over thousand victims of so many origins in Nigeria. You remember that the actual and wounded are not the only casualties. 

“On that hospital bed, you find yourself playing host to the high and mighty. “You are immobilised, speechless and incapable of motion, except perhaps to your eyelids.
“Local government Chairmen, Councillors, Ministers, Senators and the nation’s President, making promises of free medical treatment and rehabilitation among others, then your spirits are uplifted. You no longer feel depressed and abandoned.
“A few hours after the departure of your August visitors, you see your erstwhile visitors participating in a chieftaincy jollification, just a few hundred miles away.

“Again, a few hours later, the same leadership is at a campaign rally, where the chief custodian of the people’s welfare is complaining that someone allegedly diverted campaign funds to unauthorised use. That national leader then rounds off his outing with a dance that would put Michael Jackson to shame.”

"My Husband Always Beats Me Before We Have Sex" – Woman Tells Court

It was heard in Mapo Customary Court, Ibadan, Oyo State during the process of dissolution of marriage between a middle-aged housewife, Sakirat and her husband, Rasheed Olanrewaju that the latter was in the habit of beating up his wife each time he wants to have sexual intercourse with her.

Mrs. Sakirat told the court that it had become a ritual that he beats her before sex. She said:

“Anytime I don’t allow him to have sex with me, he has made it a routine to beat me  thoroughly. In fact, I currently have many scars on my body due to the series of torture on me."

“Just three weeks ago, he beat me late at night and it took God’s special grace for me to be alive. I can’t stand for long as I used to do before due to the wounds he inflicted on me,”

Olanrewaju speaking in defence told the court that his wife had become insolent and returned home anytime she felt like. He said:

“The last time that I truly beat her, Sakirat bit my manhood and I couldn’t bear it. It is true that I beat her occasionally, but I still love her,” 

The presiding judge, Chief Henry Agbaje out of intuition said he observed that there was still some love between the couple and therefore asked the couple to go and explore reconciliation.

Borno Women Blast Jonathan Over The Abduction Of The School Girls

inShare

A week and still counting and the security agencies haven’t been able to rescue the abducted girls . At the news conference which was organised in Maiduguri, the Borno State capital with regards to the abducted school girls, mothers of the abducted girls as well as other women who were in attendance have vowed to go into now dreaded Sambisa forest in search of the girls themselves. 

It was also revealed at the meeting that the security agencies did not provide any security cover for the parents of the girls who went into the forest last week in search of their wards. Wondering why the security agencies have not been able to rescue the abducted girls, the women who are pleading with Boko Haram to release the girls and embrace dialogue expressed anger over the matter.  Prof Hauwa Abdu Biu who led the press briefing, said:

“Is the President telling us that the lives of over 200 girls abducted and taken into the bush more than a week ago are not important?”

“What stopped the security men on the ground from giving security back-up to the parents to go further into the bush?” 

“Women in Borno State condemn in totality such acts of violence as attacks on schools deny children their rights to learn in a safe environment, thereby jeopardising their future.”

This is a post i could not help but post verbatim. DailyPost have reported the denial of housemaid services which was rumoured of Dame Judith to the former Governor of Rivers State, Peter Odili.

"Rivers State First Lady Dame Judith Amaechi has dismissed reports that she served as maid to the former Governor of the state, Peter Odili.

While reading to some school children during the Opening day of the UNESCO-Port Harcourt World Book Capital, a pupil posed the question, asking if Mrs Amaechi had ever been a maid.

For the first time since the stories filtered into the public in 1999, Dame Judith Amaechi had this to say: 

“I have never been a housemaid, my mother died when I was 4 and my Aunty, Mrs. Ndukwe took care of me, I got the best education, I began my education in the North, attended Port Harcourt Primary, FGGC Abuloma and then studied Urban and Regional planning at RSUST.

“My aunty and her husband are disciplinarians and educationist, my mum is from Ndoni in Rivers State and I married my husband in 1993, I was never a maid to anyone."

Rivers State Governor, Amaechi Promises Free Education For Missing School Girls

At the event to formally designate Port Harcourt as the UNESCO World Book Capital, 2014 which was held at Hotel Presidential in Port Harcourt, Rivers State Governor, Rotimi Amaechi who rather suggests agriculture and education as the keys to solving the insurgency as against military action which he says cannot end the Boko Haram insurgency in the Northern part of Nigeria reveals that members of the Boko Haram are being sponsored by unknown individuals. He said:

“For me, I have said over and over that the solution to Boko Haram does not rest in the military. It rests in education and agriculture.

“If anybody tells you nobody is funding Boko Haram, how are they getting the money to buy weapons?”

Amaechi, who is also the Chairman of Nigeria Governors’ Forum, also promised that free education will be offered to the Secondary school girls abducted by suspected Boko Haram members. He said the school girls will be made to attend the state owned ultra-modern Secondary schools. He said:

“Each of the Secondary school is 4.5 billion naira. As Rivers State Government, anybody who wants to go to that school goes there free of charge and as a step in having being admitted, you are going to be given a laptop. There is no classroom with blackboard; its visual classroom and it is being managed by Indians not Nigerians.

“We are running just one of the schools now and we hope to open the remaining 6. The reason we are yet to open the remaining 6 is because we need 800 million naira per year to run each school and that is because we give free uniforms, free food 2 children per room and so on.

“As the Rivers State Governor, I am willing to assist to take any of the missing school children or as many as we can negotiate into our schools free of charge, “

I just love this Governor!

Bessem Okafor, the estranged wife of the pastor of Mountain of Liberation Miracles Ministires, Dr. Chris Okafor, has accused her husband of beating her up at their home in Magodo, Lagos.

She said, “I have not seen my children for nine months and our lawyers agreed that I could come see them at home after school hours by 5pm. I went to the house at the appointed time, but my children were not there.

“The following morning, I bathed and dressed them for school. They pleaded with me to stay back until they returned and since I hardly spent time with them the day before, I agreed.”

What We Saw In Sambisa Forest – Parents Of The Abducted School Girls

One of the lucky abducted students in Chibok who was later rescued and being handed over by her parents at school premises on Monday.

Parents of the abducted school girls who were threatened by the Boko Haram sect for engaging in the Sambisa search recounted their ordeals/experiences of what they saw in the dreaded Sambisa Forest while in search of their abducted daughters.

Narrating their experiences to the state governor, Kashim Shettima when he visited the school, some agrrived parents spoke;

Mallam Amos Chiroma who was among those who combed the Sambisa forest said:
 “We saw a lot of strange things in the Sambisa forest but we will not be able to disclose all for security reasons. Borno and indeed this country require prayers from all and sundry.
 

"While we were in the forest with over 200 volunteers who only had cutlasses, bows, arrows
and sticks, we came across different make-shift camps suspected to be owned by terrorists. It is however unfortunate that we had to turn back when we met one good Samaritan in the forest who advised us that it was in our own interest to go back because the area we were approaching in
the forest was a dead zone dominated by terrorists."

“If soldiers had accompanied us to the forest, we were optimistic that our missing children would have been rescued, or we would be satisfied if we can just see the dead bodies of our daughters”
