POLICE ARREST VICE-PRINCIPAL FOR RAPE

Image
The police in Ekiti State have arrested a 57-year-old Vice-Principal of St. Mary Girls College, Ikole Ekiti, Mr. Ayo Ajayi, for allegedly raping a 12-year-old pupil of the school inside his office. Our correspondent gathered that the pupil had gone to the office of the vice-principal on March 18 and she did not come out as quickly as expected. This was said to have fueled the suspicion of some teachers. One of the teachers, who reported the case to the police, was said to have moved closer to the door to open it but discovered that the door had been locked from inside. She was said to have knocked on the door and the pupil and the suspect allegedly hurriedly stopped what they were busy doing inside. The demeanour of the VP and the pupil was said to have given them away and one of the teachers reported the case to the police.

Just my take too; WHY CELEBRITIES' DUBAI WEDDINGS ARE NOT HEALTHY FOR NIGERIAN TOURISM - By Paschal Oge Chikero

Image
It is about that time, we told ourselves the truth. Nigerian celebs need to be told the truth. It is fast becoming a norm in Nigeria to see our celebrities tell us bluntly with their actions that they can make good money in Nigeria but don’t see it befitting to spend it in Nigeria! Are you wondering what I am insinuating? Let me break it down to you. Our Entertainers make good money from their Nigerian fans, get celebrated by Nigerian fans but when it comes to the time to spend good money for their wedding ceremony, they remember that Nigeria is for poor people and move their wedding ceremonies outside Nigeria. I know I am not the one making this money for them and shouldn’t try to tell them how to spend it. But the truth is that we can ask reasonable questions. Is this benefitting us? How many celebs from Dubai take out time to peep into Nigeria?

STABBING OF ANN MAGUIRE TRIGGERS NATIONAL DEBATE OVER SECURITY IN UK. SHOULD ALL SCHOOLS BE SCREENING THEIR PUPILS FOR WEAPONS?

Image
The stabbing of Ann Maguire in front of her pupils triggered a national debate over security in UK chools last night. Head teachers demanded stronger backing for schools which choose to introduce airport-style metal detectors and frisk pupils for weapons. But they said schools must not be ‘locked down’ in the wake of the incident. Staffs have repeatedly voiced concern over the risk of violent attacks on school premises. Latest figures show that 550 pupils a year are expelled from schools in England for assaulting a member of staff and 17,000 short-term suspensions are handed out. Last week, police disclosed that nearly 1,000 children – 80 of them primary pupils – have been caught taking weapons into school in three years. A survey of teachers found that more than half have been subjected to verbal abuse or threats from pupils.

The fatal blow was struck by 15-year-old Learco Chindamo, who had denied the crime but was convicted and jailed for a minimum of 12 years in 1996. Previous case: In 1995, headmaster Philip Lawrence (left) was stabbed when he intervened in a fight outside his school, St George’s in Maida Vale, London, and later died. His killer was Learco Chindamo (right) He was the leader of a Triad-inspired gang of mainly Filipino students who wanted to  ‘punish’ a 13-year-old student after he quarrelled with one of them. Mr Lawrence saw the boy being hit with a metal bar, but was murdered when he intervened.   It later emerged Chindamo had bragged to a frie...

So SAD!! 15-YEAR-OLD BOY STABBED TEACHER 61, TO DEATH IN UK

Image
A devoted teacher was stabbed to death in front of her horrified class yesterday by a pupil said to have a grudge against her. Children screamed as the 15-year-old boy calmly walked up behind Ann Maguire in the middle of a lesson and repeatedly stabbed her in the neck with a kitchen knife.  It is thought to be the first time a pupil has killed a teacher in a British classroom. The attack comes 18 years after headmaster Philip Lawrence was stabbed to death outside the gates of his school. As Mrs Maguire was being attacked, a fellow  teacher raced in and grabbed the boy. Other staff helped to detain him until police arrived.  The middle class pupil, who was described as an ‘outcast’, has a picture of the Grim Reaper on his Facebook page. Mrs Maguire, 61, was taken to hospital by paramedics after the attack, at  around 11.45am. But she was declared dead on arrival.  Married with two grown -up daughters, Mrs Maguire was a caring Spanish teacher kno...

FEMALE ARCHITECT, 23, DIED AFTER RUNNING INTO BURNING FLAT TO SAVE HER FIANCE

Image
A young architect died after rushing into a burning block of flats to try and save her fiance, an inquest heard. Sophie Rosser, 23, tried to raise the alarm when she saw the flat she shared with fiance Oscar Silva, 28, on the Isle of Dogs, East London, was on fire in August last year. Poplar Coroner's court heard Miss Rosser, who had been returning from a party in Chelsea, had phoned Mr Silva to say he should get out. Her body was found on the fourth floor and Mr Silva told the court he watched from the balcony, where he had fled from the smoke, as paramedics desperately tried to revive her. In a statement read to the court said: 'A cab dropped her off at 1.37 on Sunday morning and I was asleep. Sophie called me to say there was a fire and our flatmate and I should evacuate.

BACKSTAGE AT THE MOULIN ROUGE: INSIDE THE LUXURY PARIS ATELIER CREATING ELABORATE SHOES FOR CAN-CAN DANCERS AND KYLIE MINOGUE

Image
What do Kylie Minogue and the can-can girls at the Moulin Rouge have in common?   They all get their dancing shoes from Maison Clairvoy, the Parisian bootmaker that has cornered the market for top end, made-to-measure footwear for screen and stage. Founded in 1945, the Maison Clairvoy still operates from the shop where it all began - a small building at 17 Rue Fontaine, just 650ft from the Moulin Rouge itself. Despite its theatrical clientele, the atelier began life as a simple shoe shop, with founder Edouard Adabachian creating bespoke footwear on demand for private clients.

Orgini? Kinla? What for? WIFE SWAPPING IN NAMIBIA

Image
Wife swapping among Namibia’s nomadic tribes has been practised for generations but a legislator’s call to enshrine it in law has stirred debate about women’s rights and tradition in modern society. The practice is more of a gentlemen’s agreement where friends can have sex with each others’ wives with no strings attached. Swinging with an African tribal touch? Or “rape”, as some critics sees it. The wives have little say in the matter, according to those who denounce the custom as both abusive and risky in a country with one of the world’s highest HIV/Aids rates.
