This is a sponsored post.. People are drinking codeine in cartons! Cartons o! A recovering codeine-abuser, Nancy (not real name) shared her story with popular social media user @itsunclestephen. She sent a direct message (DM) to Uncle Stephen, explaining her experience with codeine addiction as a young University student in Yola State. Stephen had just shared his own experience with codeine too and he posted the story on his timeline as well. 
My addiction started by accident” she stated in the message. She had tonsillitis during the cold season and her boyfriend helped her get a bottle of codeine syrup to help with the flu. The cold had gotten so bad that she couldn’t speak without crying. After her first dose, she was “enveloped in this warm cloud, my senses were dulled - it's like I was floating somewhere; oblivious to whatever was happening around me.” She got better but addiction had kicked in as she still wanted to feel “numb and nice”. The syrup was extremely easy to obtain. Some of her friends had cartons of codeine bottles under their bed! Another scary part was that her addiction wasn’t noticeable - her grades were up, she was the VP of the Student Union in her school. Life seemed alright but she was so underweight that her tribalistic doctor suggested that she take an HIV test. He wanted to find out if the deadly disease was the reason behind her drastic weight loss. “My addiction continued for years. I decided to stop and withdrawal symptoms wanted to kill me. Sha, I struggled, on and off for years.”, she explained. Even when she graduated and got a job, she always had a bottle of a fizzy drink that was mixed with the syrup. She escaped SARS officers at various times when attempting to reach her dealer, who she described as “my guy at Zone 4. lol” Nancy admitted that she lived dangerously in order to feed her addiction. Getting out of the addiction was one of the hardest things for her, “I went cold turkey and it was one of the hardest things I had to do. I was throwing up all the time, my system was in shambles.” Yet, it was such a struggle after recovering, that she slipped a few times. She even gets panic attacks if she is within the vicinity of her former dealer’s location. Nancy has joined hundreds of Nigerians who are beginning to speak out about addiction and struggles. This is because of programmes like the MTN-led Anti-Substance Abuse Programme (ASAP), which is getting more young people to not only share their stories but to get other young people to listen and stay away from the many harms of drug abuse.

Read the piece on marriage by Reno Omokri below... A lot has changed about marriage ever since God invented it while man was in the Garden of Eden. God made marriage to be a simple thing, but ever since man fell from grace and left Eden, we have been adding our own rules to make what is the most simple institution one of complexity. If you study marriage from the book of Genesis to the book of Revelation, it bears no resemblance to what is being passed off as marriage in this day and age. There have been priests of God, from Melchizedek, to Jesus, our High Priest. None of them officiated weddings. But is that the case today? I have studied The Bible from cover to cover, multiple times and in various translations, and I have never once come across a marriage that was performed in a synagogue, temple or church by a priest. Biblical marriages happened in the home of the couples’ parents. 2 Timothy 3:16 says “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.” Since this is the case, where does the inspiration for a White Wedding come from? Certainly, not from God’s Word. When I first taught on this, one of my followers told me that I was wrong because a priest in his church (name withheld) has told him that if he does not marry in church, the church would not recognise that marriage. My response to him was and is, why does your church have to recognise marriage for it to be valid? Who gave them that power and authority? And from whom and where does he get his doctrine from? From his Prost and his church or from his God and His Bible? The power of a PRIEST or PASTOR to pronounce a couple 'MAN and WIFE' comes from MAN, not from GOD. Read The Bible for yourself. It is God's letter to YOU. There is nothing like that in The Bible. Marriage is PURELY a FAMILY matter, not a CHURCH matter. It involves the couple and their parents ONLY. The first time marriage was mentioned in The Bible, it proceeded from God’s Mouth DIRECTLY. He said “Therefore shall a MAN leave his FATHER and his MOTHER, and shall cleave unto his WIFE”-Genesis 2:24. Jesus played NO PART in the MARRIAGE at Cana. He was invited as a GUEST. The only thing He did was turn WATER to WINE during the FEAST that FOLLOWED the WEDDING. If you want to justify CHURCH WEDDING, then couples should go to church with WATER for the PASTOR to turn to WINE. A lot of people are deceived by carefully crafted words. When a church uses the term 'marriage RITES', they are talking about RITUALS that are no better than voodoo RITUALS. CHURCH WEDDING is an unbiblical RITUAL. One of the worst thing in that EUROPEAN CULTURE passed off as BIBLICAL DOCTRINE is the use of the phrase 'for BETTER for WORSE, in SICKNESS and in HEALTH'. Do you know that is a CURSE? You are accepting an evil prophecy. God's testimony about you and your marriage is that "GOODNESS and MERCY shall follow you ALL (not SOME) the days of your life"-Psalm 23:6. You CONFESS your FAITH, not your FEARS. The truth is that many of these customs that we erroneously call Christian are in reality European customs that have over the years come to dominate Christendom. Nevertheless, no matter how far you have gone down a wrong route, you cannot get to your destination by going down that route. To show you how simple biblical marriage is, I will now break it down into the most elementary steps to make it easy to comprehend and then compare with Scripture. MARRIAGE according to The Bible. Step 1: Man approaches WomanStep 2: Man proposes marriage to WomanStep 3: Woman accepts proposalStep 4: They both tell their parents End of process! Every other thing, including CHURCH and REGISTRY is MAN MADE! The things of God are not EASY, but they are SIMPLE. The things of satan are EASY, but they are COMPLICATED. And I urge my readers not to take my word for it. Search the Scriptures. Be like The Berean Christians. This is what The Bible says about the Bereans: “Now the Berean Jews were of more noble character than those in Thessalonica, for they received the message with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see if what Paul said was true.” Do this with me and what I have taught you here. Subject my words to a test of The Bible to see if they pass the test. Then take your own church’s doctrine and do the same to them. Remember what Jesus said in John 8:32: “And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” Reno’s Darts In 4 years, General Buhari has not built ONE school for Nigerian children. Please don’t take my word for it, Google it. He has not built even one hospital. Please confirm what I just said. Now, this man who has not built a school or hospital for Nigerians wants to build RUGA settlements for herdsmen NATIONWIDE! Majority of these herdsmen are not even Nigerians. Are we a conquered territory? Not with OUR MONEY.Not with OUR LAND.Not in OUR NIGERIA. Please join me to say #HerdsmenWontGetNigerianLandThe post

Her exact words were 'if your teacher in school makes a pass, will you stop going to class? My mum believed me though'. She added, 'If you haven't experienced trauma, pls shut it. I wasn't raped but when he grabbed my tits, I froze out of fear before I realised that I could run and run i did'.

On Friday, angry residents of Otto in the Ebute Meta area of Lagos attempted to force a suspected kidnapper to take sniper and mixed cement. The suspect was reportedly found with a five-year-old girl but could not explain how he came about her during interrogation. The residents said they brought sniper and mixed cement for him to drink as a means of punishment. A local security guard in the area identified as Agbodemu Ishola said that it took the intervention of the police to save the suspect from being lynched.According to him,“some of the residents nabbed a young man who was with a five-year-old girl. He was a strange face in the community as nobody could say he or she knew him. When we interrogated him, he was not giving convincing responses. “He didn’t even know the girl before but he was seen playing with her. One of the residents raised the alarm and in few minutes, a mammoth crowd surrounded him. Of course, I am sure you know how populated Otto is.“We immediately called the security operatives, but before they came, some of the residents insisted on jungle justice but we had to stop them. Even the intervention and pleas from the Otto chiefs failed. When the security operatives came in about six patrol vehicles, the crowd kept shouting and throwing weapons. After much persuasion from Area C Commander, they relaxed.”When contacted, the Public Relations Officer of Lagos State Police Command, Elkana Bala, said he had not been briefed about the incident.The post

Lance Corporal Koza Yabiliok, a 32-year-old soldier has been arrested by the Kaduna State Police Command for allegedly selling ammunition to a suspected kidnapper who has been terrorising the state over the years. When paraded, Yabiliok told journalists that he sold each round of the live ammunition for N400. The soldier serves in one of the military units at the Jaji Military Cantonment in the state. Yabiliok however said he never knew that his customer was a kidnapper. He added that the suspected kidnapper only told him that he needed the ammunition for protection against cattle rustlers. “That is why I sold the ammunition to him. I never knew he is a kidnapper,” he said. The state Police Commissioner, Ali Aji-Janga, while addressing newsmen, said 61 other suspects were arrested for different crimes, such as kidnapping, armed robbery, culpable homicide and cattle rustling. He said assorted arms, ammunition and other dangerous weapons, drugs and vehicles were recovered from them.The post

Prof Itse Sagay (SAN), Chairman of the Presidential Advisory Committee against Corruption has revealed that President Buhari and Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo have no obligation to publicly declare their assets. The professor in an interview with Punch stated that, 'as far as I know, there is no obligation to publish anybody’s assets declaration form. All that the constitution requires is that you fill in the form and submit it. There is no provision for such publication'. 'So, I don’t know the law that the Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project wants to use in compelling the Code of Conduct Bureau to provide those details. I really don’t know. If the parties concerned do not voluntarily provide it, I don’t think there is any legal ground on which they can be compelled. This is because the law does not require it' he added. See more excerpts from the interview below...Would the President be willing to release details of what he declared based on his anti-corruption mantra?Yes, it can only be on the basis of a request, which, if he wishes, he can provide. I think they did that before. I read one last time when they took the oath of office in which the President and the Vice President publicly declared their assets. They did that; I remember clearly. Maybe it is for the second term they are talking about now but I don’t think they can get it through the law. They can’t get the President to publish his assets through the law. I would suggest, if they are so intent on getting it, this must be done through negotiation with the Presidency. That is the only way. They can persuade the Presidency for the President and the Vice President to release the statements of their assets.On the issue of anti-corruption, I don’t think a man like Buhari or Osinbajo needs a public declaration of their assets for the whole world to acknowledge that they are squeaky clean as far as integrity is concerned. It’s something that has been established for decades.Are you not taking Nigerians for granted by saying the President and the Vice President are distinguished men of integrity that do not need public declaration of their assets?But we know what they came into office with. I definitely saw that one four years ago when they came into office. But as I said, it’s a matter of conviction. Have they (SERAP) even addressed letters to the President and made a request to the President or Vice President on this matter before going to the CCB? If they have not, then, really they are putting the cart before the horse. There is no way they can legally acquire that information because it is not a required provision of the constitution. So, I think the best thing is to engage in a dialogue.SERAP is requesting the information using the Freedom of Information Act. What about that?The FoI Act makes provision not for declaration of personal assets, but for public matters. In this case, it is their private assets. I don’t think it extends to that. Otherwise, under the FoI Act, (you cannot) take a person to court to disclose how many children or how many wives he has or to provide other information about his life which he may not want to disclose. We must not carry it to a ridiculous extent. I don’t think the FoI Act extends to that sort of (disclosure). It is private assets. If you are talking of public matters, that is a different matter.What do you say to people who argue that their assets four years ago may have increased and will need to let Nigerians know the details?They don’t have to tell us. They have given the details in the asset declaration forms; that is the important thing. I remember the CCB people actually going to the State House to give the form to the President. They filled in the form and that is what the law requires them to do. Having done that, they’ve fulfilled all the requirements of taking office the second time. Any other thing now is an extralegal demand and I don’t think it is going to be successful in court. That is the point I’m making. I don’t think it will succeed.The post 
The Peoples Democratic Party and its candidate in the February 23, election, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, have kept their vow to appeal the Presidential Election Petitions Tribunal’s rejection of their request to access the “central server” which they alleged housed the results of the poll electronically transmitted by the Independent National Electoral Commission during the exercise. A four-ground notice of appeal has been filed by the petitioners, urging the Supreme Court to not only set aside the June 24, 2019 decision of the tribunal, but to also grant all their prayers “contained in the motion on notice dated and filed (before the tribunal) on May 8, 2019.” Shortly after the tribunal delivered the said ruling on June 24, 2019, the petitioners had, through two senior members of their legal team Chief Chris Uche (SAN) and Chief Mike Ozekhome (SAN) vowed to challenge the tribunal’s decision at the Supreme Court. Processes seen by our correspondent on Saturday showed that the petitioners filed their notice of appeal on June 26, 2019 two days after the tribunal’s decision was delivered. The petitioners had, in their motion, which was dismissed by the tribunal, claimed that electronically transmitted the results of the disputed poll to the said central server. INEC denied the claim, insisting that it never transmitted the results of the polls any server whatsoever, but that the results were collated and declared manually. President Buhari and his All Progressives Congress, whose victory at the polls is being challenged by the petitioners at the tribunal, also opposed the petitioners’ request for access to the said INEC’s server.The post 
US President Donald Trump has said that the deportation of undocumented migrants will begin after July 4. “We will be removing large numbers of people starting sometime after July 4,” Trump said as additional report said that US Immigration authorities had earlier announced plan to launch a sweeping effort to deport recently arrived undocumented families. The operation is expected to target up to 2,000 families facing deportation orders in as many as 10 US cities, including Houston, Chicago, Miami and Los Angeles, according to a media report . A spokesman for the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement declined to comment, saying,“Due to law-enforcement sensitivities and the safety and security of US Immigration and Customs Enforcement personnel, the agency will not offer specific details related to enforcement operations before the conclusion of those actions.” The Acting Director of ICE, Mark Morgan, said the agency would target for deportation families that have received a removal order from a US immigration court. Morgan said ICE wanted to deport undocumented families who had recently arrived in the US to discourage more Central Americans from arriving. Trump had tweeted, before the formal kickoff of his 2020 re-election campaign, that ICE would begin removing “the millions” of undocumented immigrants in the US. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, the country’s top Democrat, responded, saying, “The president’s new threat of a mass deportation dragnet is an act of utter malice and bigotry, designed solely to inject fear in our communities.”The post 
On Friday, the Emir of Kano, Malam Muhammad Sanusi II, ordered the removal of the Chief Imam of Limawa Jumat mosque in Kumbotso Local Government Area of the state, Malam Salihu Muhammed with immediate effect. Muhammed was accused of allegedly acting contrary to the monarch’s instructions on moon sighting and the eventual Eid prayer at the end of Ramadan fasting by sighting the moon by himself and conducting his own Eid prayer a day after that of the Emir. Sanusi lamented that the Imam did the same thing last year and was warned against it. He, however, noted that since the Imam remained adamant and repeated the same action this year, he had no option than to replace him. But when contacted, the ousted Imam declined to comment on the matter.The post
