man strangles, bury his day-old baby for "being a girl"

   This is weird!, like really weird..
   A 35-year-old man, Bello Rabiu, has been arrested and arraigned before a senior magistrate’s court in Katsina over the killing of his new born baby girl.
   He was said to have strangled the one day old baby and buried her in his compound after she was given birth to by his wife, Fatima Bello. Rabiu was infuriated that the baby he eagerly awaited turned out to be a female, against his wish. Police prosecuting officer, Hashimu Musa, told the court that Rabiu who resides in Dankwaro village of Charanchi LGA of Katsina State, committed the offence at midnight on May 4, 2015.
   He said the village head of Doka, Alhaji Muhammad Shehu, reported the case at the Charanchi police station after his attention was drawn to it.
“After police investigation, he was arrested and interrogated, and later confessed committing the offence’’, he said. The judge, Nafisa Bagiwa, ordered him to be remanded in prison and adjourned the case to June 22 for continuation.

Taking paracetamols while pregnant could harm baby boys

    The popular painkiller is believed to have lifelong effects on baby boys, raising their risk of everything from infertility to cancer.
Edinburgh University researchers said Britons have become 'blasé' about paracetamol’s potential dangers – and urged pregnant women to think twice before taking the drug. They said that if the tablets are taken, they should be used in the lowest possible dose, for the shortest possible time.
Pregnant women have been warned that prolonged use of paracetamol could harm their unborn baby boy +2
     Pregnant women have been warned that prolonged use of paracetamol could harm their unborn baby boy. The Royal College of Midwives said mothers-to-be should seek medical advice before taking paracetamol at all.And the medicines’ watchdog is to carefully evaluate the research.Paracetamol is the most widely-used painkiller in the world. And as the only painkiller deemed safe in pregnancy, it is taken by most mothers-to-be.However several studies have suggested it interferes with the development of the male reproductive system while still in the womb.
     This is important because it is thought that if this programming goes wrong, it has lifelong effects, putting the child at higher risk of a range of problems from genital birth defects to infertility and testicular cancer.Testosterone, which is made in the testicles, is thought to be key to the whole process, so the researchers carried out an experiment designed to show if exposure to paracetamol in the womb cuts levels of the hormone.

-Prolonged use causes levels of the hormone testosterone to plummet
-This interferes with development of unborn boy's reproductive system
-Pregnant women have become 'blasé' about using the drug, experts said
-Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health advised avoiding prolonged use

security guard dies after winning drinking and smoking competition

well i don't know if i really find this funny or heart-breaking..or perhaps i am indifferent about the whole situation,but this happened two-weeks ago. Read on..
A security man, simply identified as Thompson, has died after drinking a bottle of a popular alcoholic drink and smoking five sticks of cigarette in two minutes, which were the terms of a bet he entered into with others he met at a joint. The incident happened at Agege area of Lagos on May 7, after the deceased bought bottles of Ogogoro (local gin) for his drinking companions, who then challenged him to finish a bottle of bitters and smoke five sticks of cigarette within a stipulated time. If he had won, the friends would have paid for everything he consumed. Vanguard gathered that after agreeing to the terms, the deceased opened the bottle of bitters, drank it in less than two minutes, smoked two sticks of cigarette, stood up and began to walk away. His friend’s story His friend, 28-year-old Earnest Joseph, who had gone out with him said: “At about 8am, Thompson returned from his security guard job, went inside his room and slept. “Later in the afternoon, two of his friends came. So I prepared Eba because he had soup and we all ate. We went out to a nearby local hot drink vendor, popularly called Tee Sugar. Thompson bought N50 quantity of Dongoyaro and N30 sachet of Chelsea for each of us. “From there we went to another vendor in the neighbourhood and met some of Thompson’s friends from his home town. He ordered for two full bottles of local gin, Ogogoro, which we drank together. “As soon as we finished consuming the first bottle, Thompson and his relatives began to speak their local dialect, which I do not understand. “All of a sudden, the vendor brought a big bottle of bitters. I asked Thompson if he was the one that ordered for the bottle. He said his friends ordered it and that he wants to prove to them that he can drink a bottle of Alomo Bitters and five sticks of cigarettes. “I tried to stop him but he drank it in less than two minutes, smoked two sticks of cigarette and decided to leave. His relatives called him back to smoke the remaining three.” Trouble He said trouble started as soon as he finished the fifth stick. He reportedly became uncomfortable, staggering, sweating profusely and breathing heavily as he walked away. Joseph said he took Thompson home on okada. He was said to have vomited several times and then died at about 8p.m. in his room. Joseph said: “I was arrested because I was the one that brought him home in that condition.” Confirming the incident, Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, Deputy Superintendent of Police, Kenneth Nwosu, said the suspect has been arrested and the case transferred to the Homicide Division of the Department of Criminal Investigation, Yaba, Lagos -  Source: vanguard
