This is truly heartbreaking news. My deepest sympathies go out to the victims, their families, and the entire Ota-Ona community. It’s devastating to see yet another preventable tragedy due to a building collapse in Lagos. While the swift emergency response and the rescue of five individuals are commendable, this incident underscores systemic issues that demand urgent attention. The recurrence of such disasters—often linked to substandard materials, lax regulations, and corruption in construction oversight—is inexcusable. Stricter enforcement of building codes, routine inspections, and harsh penalties for non-compliance are critical. Developers and contractors who cut corners must be held able, and communities need safer urban planning, especially in densely populated areas like Ikorodu. Public awareness is also key. Residents should feel empowered to report unsafe constructions, and authorities must prioritize transparency in investigations. Crowding the scene, as mentioned, hampers rescue efforts, so it’s vital for bystanders to heed official guidance during crises. Let’s hope more survivors are found swiftly and that this tragedy galvanizes real change. Lagos cannot afford to normalize these collapses. Thank you for sharing this update—it’s a sobering reminder of the work needed to protect lives and ensure such disasters become a thing of the past. 🙏🏽🛠️ #BuildingSafetyNow |

This is an interesting move by Coach Chelle! Using the Unity Cup to test new systems and integrate home-based players is a smart strategy, especially with an eye on building depth and identity ahead of future competitions. Giving NPFL stars a chance could unearth hidden gems, and blending them with fringe internationals like Dessers and Uche might create a nice balance of hunger and experience. That said, Ahmed Musa’s inclusion will definitely spark debate. While his leadership and experience are invaluable, many fans might argue it’s time to fully phase him out for younger talents. Still, if he’s there to mentor and stabilize the squad during experimentation, it could pay off. The Ghana clash will be a litmus test—can these new faces and systems hold up under pressure? Let’s hope Chelle’s project translates to cohesion on the pitch. September can’t come soon enough! 🇳🇬⚽ What do others think—should Musa still be in the mix, or is it time to prioritize youth? 8 Likes |

This is truly heartbreaking news. My thoughts are with Godwin Nnadiekwe and his loved ones during this incredibly difficult time. I sincerely hope he makes a full and speedy recovery. Internal bleeding is extremely serious, so I’m grateful he’s receiving medical care immediately. Accidents on film sets, though unfortunate, are a stark reminder of the physical risks actors take to bring stories to life. Let’s avoid speculation about the incident and instead focus on sending strength to Godwin. I also hope the production team reviews safety protocols to prevent such situations in the future. Please respect the privacy of everyone involved—especially Godwin’s family and colleagues—as they navigate this. Updates from trusted sources would be appreciated when appropriate. 💔🙏 3 Likes |

What an incredible season for Salah—well deserved recognition! He’s been absolutely pivotal for Liverpool, not just with his goals but also his playmaking. To lead the league in both goals and assists is a rare feat, and breaking Aguero’s record as the highest-scoring overseas player just adds to his legendary status. It’s also great to see him committing to Liverpool until 2027. With this kind of form, he’s showing no signs of slowing down. A true Premier League great! 32 Likes 4 Shares |

When Scott McTominay swapped the Premier League for Serie A, he did so with unwavering conviction. “I knew it was right the moment the chance came,” the Scottish midfielder reflected. “Once I commit to something, there’s no second-guessing. No regrets.” His move to Napoli last summer wasn’t just a career shift—it became a love affair with a city, a team, and its fans. “This place, the ers, my teammates—it’s all incredible,” he added. That adoration is mutual. In Edinburgh’s San Ciro’s restaurant, a Scotland flag hangs proudly, emblazoned with the words: “Napoli. McTominay. Pizza. In that order.” A cheeky nod to priorities, perhaps, but also a testament to the midfielder’s rapid rise as a cult hero in Naples. The eatery, run by brothers Ciro and Santo Sartore—Scottish-born sons of Neapolitan immigrants—has become an unlikely hub for celebrating McTominay’s Italian journey. “His ion won over Napoli instantly,” explained Ciro. “Fans here cherish players who embrace the city as their own. When he kissed the badge and celebrated those goals, it showed he’s one of us.” McTominay’s impact transcends the pitch. In Naples’ historic San Nicola a Nilo district, a makeshift shrine to the Scot has even emerged, adorned with scarves and memorabilia. Journalist Marco Credendino noted, “He embodies Napoli’s spirit—relentless intensity, selfless play. Learning Italian and Neapolitan dialects? That’s how you earn respect here.” McTominay’s cultural immersion extends to the dinner table. Once a tomato skeptic, he now praises Campania’s produce: “Back home, tomatoes tasted like water. Here, they’re bursting with flavor. I snack on them daily—everything’s so fresh!” This season marks a historic milestone for Scots in Italy. Before 2023, no Scottish player had ever lifted the Serie A title. Now, two hold that honor: McTominay and his compatriot Billy Gilmour, who ed Napoli from Brighton and became integral to their title triumph. Meanwhile, Lewis Ferguson captained Bologna to a Coppa Italia victory over AC Milan, ing Graeme Souness as only the second Scot to win the competition. From badge kisses to tomato revelations, McTominay’s story symbolizes a broader Scottish invasion—one flavored with ion, perseverance, and a dash of Mediterranean zest. BBC. |

1. Parental Influence and Entitlement: Private school teachers often face pressure from parents who, as paying clients, may challenge disciplinary actions. For instance, a teacher issuing detention might face parental complaints leading s to reverse consequences to retain enrollment. This undermines authority and creates inconsistency, leaving teachers feeling uned. 2. Technology Distractions: Despite policies banning smartphones, students covertly use devices, leading to distractions and cyberbullying. Teachers expend energy enforcing rules, diverting focus from instruction and fostering frustration over constant power struggles. 3. Academic Pressure and Behavioral Outcomes: High expectations for academic performance can cause stress-induced disruptive behavior. Teachers may be pressured to prioritize academic results over addressing behavioral issues, exacerbating classroom management challenges. 4. Evolving Social Norms and Authority Resistance: Modern students often question traditional authority, valuing individualism over compliance. Teachers trained in conventional methods may struggle to adapt, perceiving defiance as disrespect, which erodes classroom dynamics. 5. Mental Health Concerns: Rising anxiety and depression among students manifest as behavioral issues. Untrained in mental health , teachers feel ill-equipped to address these root causes, leading to helplessness and burnout. 6. Inconsistent istrative : s, prioritizing parent satisfaction and retention, may lack clear disciplinary frameworks. Teachers face ambiguity in enforcing rules, fearing backlash for stringent measures, which diminishes morale. Teacher Frustration Manifestations: - Burnout: Managing disruptions while meeting academic goals drains emotional resilience. - Job Dissatisfaction: Time spent on discipline over teaching reduces fulfillment. - Perceived Lack of Respect: Struggles to maintain authority in a culture of entitlement. - Generational Divide: Older teachers may find modern, lenient approaches ineffective, fostering resentment. Conclusion: The intersection of parental expectations, technological distractions, and evolving social dynamics creates a complex disciplinary landscape in private schools. Teachers, caught between enforcing order and appeasing stakeholders, experience significant frustration. Addressing these challenges requires systemic , including clear policies, parental collaboration, mental health resources, and professional development in contemporary classroom management. Without such measures, teacher retention and educational quality may decline, impacting school reputations and student outcomes. |

I've noticed this too. It's like people are more focused on their own things nowadays. I think it's not about men being less willing to help, but rather about safety concerns and boundaries. Perhaps we're just expecting different forms of kindness and in today's society. Interesting observation. Maybe societal norms and expectations have evolved over time. It's worth considering various factors that might contribute to these changes. 9 Likes 2 Shares |

This initiative reflects a proactive approach to Nigeria’s intertwined security and environmental crises. Its success hinges on meticulous implementation, sustained funding, and balancing force with ability. If executed thoughtfully, it could set a precedent for other nations grappling with similar challenges. However, overlooking governance risks could exacerbate existing tensions, underscoring the need for caution alongside ambition. 4 Likes |

In Islam, true faith (īmān) and righteousness (taqwā) are not limited to acts of worship (like prayer, fasting, or charity) alone. While these acts are essential pillars of Islam, they must be rooted in sincere intention (niyyah), moral integrity, and comionate conduct toward others. The Quran and Sunnah repeatedly emphasize that a "true Muslim" is defined by a holistic balance of worship, ethics, and social responsibility. Here’s why: 1. Acts of Worship Must Be Coupled with Sincerity (Ikhlas) - The Quran states: "And they were not commanded except to worship Allah, being sincere to Him in religion…" (Quran 98:5). Rituals devoid of sincerity are like an empty shell. For example, the Quran condemns those who pray ostentatiously (riyā’) to show off (Quran 107:4-6), highlighting that hypocrisy invalidates acts of worship. - The Prophet ﷺ said: "Actions are judged by intentions, and every person will have what they intended" (Bukhari 1). Without sincere devotion to Allah, even frequent prayers or charity become meaningless. 2. True Faith Demands Moral Character (Akhlaq) - The Prophet ﷺ defined the essence of Islam as excellence in character: "I was sent to perfect good character" (Al-Adab al-Mufrad 7). He ﷺ also said: "The best among you are those with the best character" (Bukhari 6035). - The Quran links faith to ethical behavior: "Worship Allah and associate nothing with Him, and to parents do good, and to relatives, orphans, the needy, the near neighbor, the distant neighbor…" (Quran 4:36). Oppressing others, lying, or arrogance directly contradict true faith, even if one prays regularly. 3. Social Justice and Rights of Others (Huqooq al-‘Ibād) - Islam teaches that fulfilling the rights of people is as critical as fulfilling the rights of Allah. The Prophet ﷺ warned: "A person might fast and pray, but if they abuse their neighbor, they will be in Hell" (Ahmad 23800). - The Quran condemns those who pray yet neglect societal welfare: "Have you seen the one who denies the Recompense? For that is the one who drives away the orphan and does not encourage the feeding of the poor" (Quran 107:1-3). - Zakat (charity) is not just a ritual—it is a social obligation to uplift the marginalized. Similarly, honesty in trade, kindness to animals, and justice in speech are all part of faith. 4. The Danger of Self-Righteousness - The Quran warns against those who reduce religion to rituals while ignoring its spirit: "O you who have believed, why do you say what you do not do? Greatly hateful in the sight of Allah is that you say what you do not do" (Quran 61:2-3). - The Prophet ﷺ cautioned: "A man may utter a word [carelessly] that displeases Allah, without realizing its gravity, because of which he will be thrown into Hellfire" (Bukhari 6478). This underscores the need for God-consciousness (taqwā) in all actions, not just worship. 5. The Example of the Hypocrites (Munāfiqūn) The Quran harshly criticizes hypocrites who perform acts of worship outwardly but lack faith inwardly: "When they stand for prayer, they do so lazily, showing off to the people…" (Quran 4:142). Their prayers and fasts are meaningless because their hearts are corrupt. Conclusion A "true Muslim" is one whose heart, words, and deeds align with divine guidance. Acts of worship are the framework of Islam, but the spirit of faith lies in: - Sincerity (ikhlas) in worship, - Moral excellence (ihsan) in conduct, - Justice (‘adl) in society, and - Humility before Allah and His creation. As the Prophet ﷺ taught, "Religion is sincerity" (Muslim 55)—to Allah, to His Book, to His Messenger, to the leaders, and to all people. Without this holistic commitment, rituals alone cannot define true godliness. 5 Likes 2 Shares |

Celebrity Muslim Cleric Rapes, Tortures And Kills His 5-Year-Old Daughter Believing She Is Not A Virgin And Pays $50,000 To Avoid Prison In An ‘Honor Killing’ Celebrity Muslim cleric, Fayhan al-Ghamdi, raped, tortured and killed his 5-year-old daughter, Lama, then paid to avoid prison in Saudi Arabia. Little Lama suffered, “A crushed skull, broken back, broken ribs, a broken left arm and extensive bruising and burns.” The Independent newspaper in London further reported, “Social workers say she had also been repeatedly raped and burnt.” . What happened to poor Lama is what is known in Muslim culture as an honor killing. Many helpless girls and women have been victimized by it in the Middle East, in behavior that has also been brought to Britain and America, disturbing authorities in the West tasked with investigating and prosecuting the cases. Lama’s case is particularly disturbing and very upsetting. Read full story ➡http://nubian-oracle..com/2016/08/celebrity-muslim-cleric-rapes-tortures.html

Russia: Muslim cleric says “all women should be circumcised" AUGUST 18, 2016 BY ROBERT SPENCER . FGM is widely reputed to be a “cultural” practice, but actually it is sanctioned by Islamic law: “Circumcision is obligatory (for every male and female) (by cutting off the piece of skin on the glans of the penis of the male, but circumcision of the female is by cutting out the bazr ‘clitoris’ [this is called khufaadh ‘female circumcision’]).” — ‘Umdat al-Salik e4.3, translated by Mark Durie, The Third Choice, p. 64 . The Christian cleric, Vsevolod Chaplin, ought to know better. His remarks in his own defense were appalling. Why must female sexuality be reduced and not male? Female genital mutilation is a means of controlling women, dehumanizing them and reducing them to the level of mere drones. Hardly Christian values, one would think. . “Outrage in Russia after religious leaders back female genital mutilation,” by Roland Oliphant, Telegraph, August 18, 2016: Read full story ➡ http://nubian-oracle..com/2016/08/russia-muslim-cleric-says-all-women.html?m=1

BOOM! Texas BANS Sharia Law and the First Islamic Sharia Court in the USA is NOT Happy! BREAKING NEWS BY TRUTHFEEDNEWS AUGUST 15, 2016 . The first Islamic Sharia Court in the U.S. just got some very bad news, and Muslims are not happy. . In a close 5-4 vote, the city of Irving ruled to back the Texas state bill banning foreign law from the state. It basically would slam the door in their faces, preventing them from spreading Sharia throughout the country. Now they are accusing the city council of unfairly being targeted. . All four of the “voluntary” court’s lawyers were unlicensed in the state of Texas, a third degree felony. Mayor Beth Van Duyne received several phone calls on the matter. It seems that the Islamic Tribunal not only was unlicensed, but they failed to notify the city of their illegal court being operated in city limits. She promised to get to the bottom of it, and she did. Read more ➡ http://nubian-oracle..com/2016/08/boom-texas-bans-sharia-law-and-first.html?m=1 1 Like |

According to a former US intelligence director, up to 80 per cent of computer laptops confiscated from ISIS Islamic jihadists contain p0.rnn movies saved on them. In another report, Lieutenant General Michael Flynn, an ex-chief of the Defence Intelligence Agency explained that the graphic s_xual movies "gingers" the Islamic extremists to carry out their vicious brutality with efficiency. Michael Flynn made the statements in the German tabloid Bild, where his earlier published book on combating radical Islam is currently serialised. ‘At one point we actually had determined that the material on the laptops was up to 80 per cent pornography. These sick, psychopathic enemies were not only unimaginably hideous, but also treacherous and torn. We had to work faster to outwit them if we wanted to beat them.’ he was quoted as saying. It should be noted that this is not the first report of jihadists have being connected to possessing pornographic films on their computer laptops. Former London mayor Boris Johnson said last year that homegrown local Islamic fanatics from the United Kingdom who seek ISIS hip were individuals who watched p0.rn as a result of fact that they couldn't find girls to date. What a funny crazy world we live in. Full story: http://wtfaak.co.za/imagine-this-laptops-taken-from-isis-jihadist-militants-found-to-contain-80-p0-rn/ Boodogay Chetah Gao Dein |

Nigeria is surely as of the moment suffering the effects of tribalism and nepotism, indeed we should be careful of our utterances and check our actions even on social media. A man from the south western part of Nigeria, Yoruba by tribe, Adebiyi Olatunji, has wasted no time in expressing his morbid hatred for another tribe called the Igbos from the south eastern part of the west African oil giant producer. He took to facebook to broadcast to all who cared to pay attention that he was going to kill his Imo state born wife first when the genocide against the Igbos commences, insisting it was a promise. Olatunji happens to be a Muslim and is a staff of the Mediterranean shipping company. Soon after making the despicable statement, the photo of the screen grab of his sinister comment and profile picture went viral on social media. Do you by chance know anybody who knows this psychopathic man’s wife? Such a woman is not supposed to be married to a such man that despises her tribe in such vicious manner.

In Montreal on the 12th day of July, a Canadian man who was driving his truck through a safari park was found laughing and making fun of people in another truck who were under “attack” by famished ostriches, but however he created a viral video out of the show. The funny video was ed to YouTube by Viva Frei, it displays filmer David Freiheit’s angle of view as the inhabitants of a pickup truck situated at the front of his vehicle at a Quebec safari park were pecked and nibbled by an aggressively hungry ostrich. Freiheit laughed and remarked that ostriches’ pecks don’t actually injure, and set out to demonstrate it as a fact when he with his family approached the flightless birds. He was forced to swallow his words back when he offered some delicious food to the ostrich, but lo and behold, the ostrich pecked his hand and bit his finger. Hmm…talk about biting the finger that feeds you. How convenient! He narrated that the inhabitants of the pickup truck gave him the express permission to the video online.
