Yark Damehame reframes: "We did not fire at close range on Alabi" (graphic pictures)



On Thursday, in front of the deputies in the National Assembly, the Minister of Security, Yark Damehame returned to the tragedy that occurred in Agoè last February, at the demonstration of drivers against rising fuel prices.

The death of the young driver, shot dead, revolted public opinion. Yark Damehame promised an investigation to locate the responsibilities. Yesterday in front of the deputies, he claimed that It was a lost ball that reached the young Alabi.

"The government has not deliberately chosen to get there. This is a deplorable situation for all. If the fellow had been shot at close range, the bullet would not have remained in his abdomen, it would have pierced it. He was even in his vehicle when the bullet hit him. Several shots took place that day and it can be said that it was a stray bullet that hit him, "he said.

This demonstration, according to the Minister of Security, is far from being described as peaceful. And to justify: "When you demonstrate and people erect barricades here and there, it is no longer a peaceful demonstration. The elements you somed once, twice and then it's finished, it does not reach three. If you refuse, they charge you. "

However, these explanations did not convince members. But according to the minister, the investigation is continuing.

He also said that the commander of the units of the security forces who were on the scene as well as the security forces concerned were punished. And in the days to come, it will be the turn of the demonstrators who burned the bus of Sotral.

                                                           Ibeji (Twins) In Yoruba land, one of the most important things done when a child is born is to give the child a name. This comes after the child’s ritual birth, massage of specific body parts and other rites as well. Names are given to the child by the father, mother, grandparents (paternal and maternal) and some close relatives also. But sometimes, the circumstance of a child’s birth will automatically give the child a name. This name is known as ‘orúko àmútọ̀runwá’ (pre-destined or generic name) in Yorubaland.

John XII: The Pope who turned the Vatican to a Whorehouse

Octavianus was only 18 years old when he ascended the Papacy of the Roman Catholic Church and became Pope John XII on December 16, 955. He was the only son of Duke Alberic II (932–954) of Spoleto, then ruler of Rome. Alberic, before his death in 954, made Roman nobles swear at St. Peter's altar that they would make his son, Octavianus, pope at the first vacancy. Since the leaders loved the dying father, they kept their word to him and elected Octavianus as the 130th Roman Catholic Pope succeeding Pope Agapetus II after the pope’s death on November 8, 955. Octavianus adopted the apostolic name of John XII. He was the third pontiff to take a regnal name upon elevation to the papal chair; the first being Pope John II (533–535), whose birth name was Mercurius and the second, Pope John III (561–574), whose birth name was Catelinus. Right from the start, in relation to secular issues, the new pope issued his directives under the name of Octavianus, while in all matters relating t...
