JSS 2 Girl's Brutality: Lagos Government Removes Principal and Others.

Earlier this week, we brought news to you of a JSS II pupil, Ogechi Anyalewechi, who was flogged brutally by her school principal and some of the school's teachers, because she slapped the school's head girl.

The Lagos State Government on Wednesday has however removed the Principal of Eva
Adelaja Girls Secondary School in Bariga, Lagos, Mrs C. O. Coker,
Vice-Principal, Mrs Balogun and the four teachers.

Reports gathered that the teachers are Mr Bello (Mathematics), Mrs
Tejumaye (English language), Mrs Omoge (Physic Education) and Mr
Bakare (Economics).


Lagos State Ministry of Education Permanent Secretary Mrs Olabisi Ariyo
disclosed that they were removed because of their complicity in the
“Assault Saga.”

Her words: They will no longer work in the school from
Thursday, March 24.”

It will be recalled that Ogechi was flogged on her bare buttocks after
slapping back the Head Girl, who reported her to the school. Ogechi
suffered body wounds from the strokes and was later taken to the Lagos
State University Teaching Hospital (LASUTH), Ikeja for treatment.


When the incident went viral, the state Commissioner for Youth and Social
Development, Princess Uzamat Akinbile-Yussuf directed the Directorate of
School Social Services of her ministry to probe it and a fact-finding
team indicted the principal and the teachers.

Princess Akinbile-Yussuf words: “The Director of the School Social
Services on my instruction went to the school to carry out on the spot
investigation following which all those involved including the principal, the
head girl, Ogechi, her parents and Tutor-General of Education District 2,
were on Wednesday, March 23 (yesterday), invited before a panel chaired
by Muri-Okunola and his education ministry counterpart, Mrs Ariyo was
also there.


“The head girl confessed that she slapped Ogechi first and apologised to
her for her improper behaviour. It was also confirmed that the principal
subsequently instructed some teachers to give Ogechi about 12 strokes of
the cane on her backside. The principal and teachers have since been
removed and will now report to the Education District 2 while the assault
victim and the erring head girl were appropriately counselled by the School
Social Services Directorate on the proper way to conduct themselves in
school.”

“We have also instructed that the victim (Ogechi) should not be harassed
or molested as she returns to the school to continue her studies and her
parents were happy with the outcome of the intervention.

“However, the ministry shall henceforth step up the school social services
to educate both students and teachers on the best conduct in school
environment across all public schools in Lagos State,” she stated.

THE WILDFLOWER MOVIE REVIEW.

  Think of The Wait and how it made you feel. How it brought things you have ever seen, heard of or experienced right to you, that is exactly how you would feel with this movie.  This is a movie that is a must watch if you are a mother, an elder sister, if you are connected to a female one way or the other, this movie is for you. Trust Aunty Biodun Stephen to always give you real life and realistic themes and plots. Hence the plot of this movie is so close to home that I could remember some scenarios. But the movie was dragged at so many points. If you are looking for a movie that would kick you in the punch at once, this is not that movie. This is the movie that you have take your time to go through the prolonged actions and scenes, which was caused by some actors, who unfortunately were key players. Anyway, overall, I'd give it an 8/10. Plot is cool. Directing is cool. Delivery wasn't perfect for a lot to cast, even the top ones. Everyone was just at their relaxed mood, whic...

King Of Swazi chooses Wife, Publicly Test Girls' Virginity As They Dance Naked. (Photos)

A common tradition in Swaziland (Swazi) permits the King, Mswati, to choose a new bride every year. This is done in a festival named Swazi Reed Dance Festival where girls are paraded and tested publicly to know their virginity status. It has been a long time tradition in Swaziland and not the first time this controversial issue is making it into the news. Although, many consider this barbaric and backward, it’s a tradition the people willingly embrace as the aim is to help King Mswati choose a wife. As part of Swazi custom and norms, that time of the year has come, when the King chooses his bride and again, he has reportedly tested some of the volunteered girls’ virginity before choosing a wife for himself. Thousands of pretty virgins’ were seen in this year’s edition dancing topless for King Mswati III, on what is called the Reed Dance ceremony, also known as Umhlanga), hoping to be his next wife. The Reed Dance ceremony is an annual Swazi and Zulu tradition hel...

Ijakumo Movie Review

  Whatever this movie was set to give, it didn't give.  Even the stripping is not giving. Why is the Sharon girl sex talking like she is doing spoken words???  I liked the babe in "Listening Ears", but I feel she is not 'mature' enough theatrically for this role. Wait, what I noticed was that Toyin and her crew didn't know there was a girl who looks like the Sharon girl in his church. A very crazy error that no director should make. If they had come in with this, maybe the finding out they were twin bla BLA BLA suspense would suspense well. But as the director or script writer were very myopic, the twin shii didn't hold water. If they had said or showed that they picked the Ugandan girl because she looked like the Nigerian girl in his church, e for make perfect sense. Seriously, I am miffed. The only thing that thrilled me was Kunle Remi and his lines. O mard gan. 🤣🤣🤣 "Emi mimo ni kin gbenu sohun". 🤣🤣🤣 "So, idi Uganda lo Fe baye mi j...
