Veteran actor chinwetelagu brutalised and arrested

Nigerian soldiers today, harassed, embarrassed, br***lised and arrested Chinwetalu Agu in Onisha today for wearing biafrian uniform. 

I seriously weep for Nigeria, so people no longer have right to freedom and expression of themselves. 

What was his crime? 

 Is this the protection they promised us? 

Who gave them the right to humiliate him? 

Biafra is his belief, he has a freedom to express his beliefs without permission from anyone. 

A legend that has represented Nigeria in so many ways through his acting skills was today humiliated by the same country he represents. 

I WEEP FOR NIGERIA………….

Nipah virus: new virus without cure emerges in India, causes seizures and brain swelling

Fears Nipah virus without cure will become the world’s next pandemic after a boy was killed by the illness that causes seizures and brain swelling

Health organizations are trying to contain an outbreak of the Nipah virus that has a much higher death rate than Covid and causes vomiting, seizures and brain swelling.

A young Indian boy was killed by the illness and there are fears it could cause the next worldwide pandemic, heightened by the fact that Nipah has a very high rate of mutation.

According to the World Heath Organisation, Nipah’s mortality rate ranges between 40 and 75% compared to Covid’s 1%.

“The virus has been shown to spread from person-to-person in these outbreaks, raising concerns about the potential for NiV to cause a global pandemic,” the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said.

Officials in India’s Kerala state are concerned after the 12-year-old died at the weekend, prompting efforts to trace his contacts with new infections already confirmed.

According to reports, the boy had visited two other hospitals before he died, meaning he potentially came close to hundreds of people.

The boy’s immediate contacts have been tested but are all negative.

State health minister Veena George said: “That these eight immediate contacts tested negative is a great relief.”

Nipah has been listed by the WHO as a dangerous virus that needs researching further

The fruit bat-borne disease, which first jumped from pigs to farmers in Malaysia in 1999, has an incubation period of up to 45 days, meaning a person could spread it for more than a month before falling sick.

There is no cure or vaccine for Nipah yet. Patients are only given supportive medical care.

Dr Melanie Saville, head of vaccine research and development at the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations, earlier told The Sun: “Nipah is one of the viruses that could absolutely be the cause of a new pandemic. Several things about Nipah are very concerning.

“Most crucially, we shouldn’t just be looking at Nipah.

“We know that a future pandemic is inevitable, and there are many other emerging infectious diseases that are recognised as having pandemic potential.”

Uche Maduagwu Rejects N20M to Date Mercy Eke Because Of Her indecent Dressing

Actor Uche Maduagwu has rejected N20M to date Mercy Eke because of her dressing says even if you beg him he will never date her asking her to respect their culture.

Uche Maduagwu slammed Mercy Eke after she shared some pre-wedding photos that she was half-naked saying she needs prayers if at the age of 28 she has to go half-naked just to stay relevant on the net while her colleagues are showing their intelligence. After that, he has called her out once again over her dressing and this time around claiming even if you beg him with N20M to date Mercy Eke he will never agree as he’s an A-list artist who takes not less than N5M to attend an event and nothing less than N2M for a movie.

According to Uche Maduagwu, even if Mercy Eke buys ten houses he doesn’t care as all he cares about is her mature dressing and her photos show she lacks that asking her to dress the way she wants to be addressed and respect their culture. Uche Maduagwu made a lot of sense with his statement asking Mercy Eke to dress the way she wants to be addressed and show some sense of maturity by exhibiting her intelligence and not her body to stay relevant but he spoiled it all with his claims of not dating her since we all know she will never date him. Even if dem beg me with 20 million naira to date Mercy, I will not agree. I am an A-List celeb, get paid 5 million just to attend events, and take nothing less than 2 million per movie, even if she buy ten houses, we no care, we only care about your mature dressing, madam dress the way you want to be addressed, respect our culture.
