A 92-year-old woman who had been declared dead suddenly woke up screaming inside a freezing mortuary. Prosecutors in Germany have charged a doctor with negligent bodily harm after he mistook the woman for dead. The 53-year-old doctor pronounced the seriously ill woman dead in March after a care worker found her without a pulse and not breathing at a retirement home.Her body was taken to the Munstermann funeral parlour in Berlin where it was placed in a refrigerated room. But just hours later a worker at the funeral home heard shrieks coming from inside the room. When staff went to investigate they pulled the body out of the refrigerator and found the woman alive. According to Uk Mirror, the stunned employee fainted when he unzipped the mortuary bag and found the woman staring back. Tragically the woman died two days later in hospital from heart disease unrelated to the incident. The doctor is due to appear in Gelsenkirchen Magistrates' Court to face ch

The Federal Government has introduced a pain-relieving drug for cancer, HIV and other related diseases in the country. The drug, simply called morphine, is expected to bring relief to patients suffering from the ailments. Consequently, it has directed that morphine, which had been in use in very low quantity in health facilities in the country, should be supplied by the Federal Government and the American Cancer Society in the next one year. The programme is being implemented under the auspices of Pain-Free Hospital Initiative. The Managing Director of Global Cancer Treatment, Dr. Megan O'Brien, who spoke on behalf of ACS during the unveiling of morphine on Thursday evening in Abuja, said the drug will reduce the scarcity of pain relievers. She said, "In the past, opium pain relievers were not widely used in Nigeria, and as a result, hundreds of thousands of Nigerians have suffered unnecessarily. Their unrelieved pain affected not only themselves; their suffering

Top leaders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) are reportedly upset over President Muhammadu Buhari's refusal to name his cabinet after spending over a month in power. Some APC leaders, who spoke to Thisday on the issue, opined that Buhari's delay in constituting a cabinet may affect the current administration negatively. The leaders who spoke on the condition of anonymity, viewed Buhari's decision to delay the cabinet as a ploy by a  "man who intends to shut out all the people who helped him win the election." One of them said,  "We are beginning to believe that the suspense by Mr. President is deliberate. He is exploiting the delay to scare away people like us who helped him get to the top. "Attempting to visit Mr. President when he was in the Defence House used to be a nightmare. With his movement into the State House, it has become almost impossible to see him. Tell me, how do you know what a man is thinking when you can't see him?&qu

All Praises and Adorations are due to The Almighty God, who in his infinite mercies kept us all till this moment. It is your air we breathe, and in your mercies we thrive. The schedule, planning, conduct and supervision of this election won't have been possible without you being in charge. We are grateful.

I dare not underestimate the unrelenting efforts of the Dean of Students Affairs, Prof. I G Adanlawo and other members of the team that conducted and supervise the election. They had worked very hard and tirelessly to ensure the successful conduct of the election. I pray God Almighty reward you abundantly. Temitope Awelewa and the EKSUSU PRESS Team were also very active in the successful planning and conduct o

Report according to  Punch News  suggests that fresh moves by the Senate President, Senator Bukola Saraki, to formally meet with President Muhammadu Buhari has been resisted by the president. According to  Punch News , an official in the Presidency who confided in one of our correspondents on Saturday said the President and the Senate President had only met once since the latter's emergence as the leader of the senate.

President Muhammadu Buhari has not abandoned his friend, Chief Amaechi (that's how he calls him) and he is said to be seriously considering him for the position of Secretary to the Federal Government or any other top position in government for the important role he played as his Campaign Director.

Wonders will never and shall never cease in this our dear country. Imagine the antibiotic drugs a guy purchased at a pharmacy store in Lagos recently. Today is the 10 of July 2015 but the the said drugd was manufactured in April 2016 (How is this possible?). Which time will it expire then? Maybe 2020..lol This is one of the Wuruwuru games Nigerian drug manufacturers are playing with people's health. How are we sure this drug hasn't passed its expiration date?

Brave Nigerian naval officer Seaman Amaseimogha Paul ensured he died alone after noticing landmine while fighting Boko Haram insurgents in Borno state. A naval officer left Bayelsa to Borno state to a$$ist fight Boko Haram. While he stepping on a landmine he told his colleagues to stay far away from the area while he tried to discharge the explosive. His touching story was shared by his colleague, Okunima Patrick. Read it below:- "You weren't the first Naval personnel to die in the battle against insurgency, but the special thing about your death is that when you stepped on a landmine, you knew death was unavoidable (considering our present level of technology, training and other factors I wouldn't want to mention), so you alerted your colleagues to steer clear as far as they could go, away from the mine, before detonating the explosive. What an act of bravery? "All those whom you have saved will forever remain in your debt. Those of us who were not in the

Wednesday 8th July 2015 would rank amongst the days I would never forget in life. The day started brightly, by my timetable, I should have a lecture by 8:00 am, so I rushed to school so I won't miss the lecture. I got to class around 7:40am, sat in class and was expecting the lecturer. Around 9:46 am, when it was certain that the lecturer won't show up, I left class with a few other colleagues and headed towards the Microbiology Laboratory. On my way to the Laboratory, I heard someone call my name. Lo and behold, it was my big cousin, I rushed to meet him, hoping to disturb him a bit, to my disappointment he wasn't really in a good mood. When I got closer to him, he said to me softly, "Lawal's dad is dead".  I will forever remember my shock and consternation on hearing such disheartening news. I was traumatized, fighting really hard to hold back tears. I couldn't even say a word. I just walked away.... My uncle AbdulRazaq Zubair  belongs to the heavens n

Awopeju Cosmas Shina popularly known as "Engr China" is an aspirant of EKSU Student Union Presidency. He is the same Engr China who wrote an open letter to Gov Fayose on the reduction of EKSU School fees in 2014. Students have been wondering how this dedicated aspirant is so popular despite the fact that he's presently on industrial training (SIWES) and other aspirants stay 24hours on campus. Daily Gister had an interview with him and he had these to say: I have not come promising to build castles in the ‎air like others, or promising to build bridges where there is no water like the conventional politicians. "The welfare of the students is my utmost concern"‎ We will engage the management in superior arguments on issues relating to the welfare of our students when necessary. HEALTH CENTRE, SECURITY, LECTURERS, CADET HARASSMENT all has to STOP!!! I enter into moral covenant with EKSUITES that the exorbitant charges of #1,750 as bank charges will enter into sudde

Super Eagles striker Emmanuel Emenike has sensationally told Fenerbache coach Vitor Pereira that he is a Muslim. Emenike failed to join the squad up for breakfast on Saturday, prompting the Portuguese to probe his absence on why he didn't join up with the squad in the morning: "I'm fasting," Emenike reportedly told the coach according to Turkish daily Fanatik. Pereira however replied: "You're not a Muslim," insisting that Emenike is a Christian. But in the response, the former Spartak Moscow player did not back down. "I became a Muslim, I am a Muslim," he continued to claim. Emenike is yet to feature for Fenerbache in their two pre-season games so far.

Former football player, Rashidi Yekini was remembered in Portugal. May his soul rest in peace...Amen.
