TWO NIGERIAN STUDENT'S GOT DROWN IN GHANA:

Charles and Eddy students of knusford University college Accra went

for an excursion to the volta region of Ghana on the 23rd of this

month (Saturday).

Read the story of an executive that planned the event:

I'm a student of the school and also among the executives. When we

got to the resort, which is Afrikiko at Akosombo.

We were making arrangements with the management of the place on how to

reduce the price of the facilities there. This time, some students

were playing volleyball, some football, some around the pool , some

table tennis and others dancing. The management said, its 20 cedis to

eat, 20 cedis to swim and 10 cedis to cruise the boat. Charles,

Demola, Michael, Bright and Edwards entered a fisherman's canoe to

cross the river for the amount of 5 cedis each. They were almost at

the other side when the both capsized. Bright is from Rivers state and

he can swim. Demola and Michael managed to save themselves but Charles

and Edwards died. It was just impatience that killed these guys.

Besides, you know you don't know how to swim, you are entering a

fishermans boat that doesn't have a life jacket. The fisherman ran

away but he was found about two villages away. The situation right now

is that their relatives are around and are planning on how to take

their bodies to Nigeria."



It was one of the most anticipated events of the semester as most of

the students from knusford and other schools rushed the ticket,when

they finally arrived there was a river that served as a barrier and

whilst the Management that brought them and other students were still

trying to arrange for a speed boat to get there, looking at the

limited amount of the boats and the price, they decided to talk to a

fisherman to take them to the other side with his canoe, they managed

to convince the fisherman and the five of them went on board without

life jackets, when they were in the middle of the river the canoe

suddenly capsized, three out of the five boys were able to swim and

got out of the river, one of the survivors tried to rescue Charles but

he wasn't able to, so just three out of the five survived. The Canoe

man also in case you were wondering, he ran away but he has been

caught and must face justice.

May their souls rest in peace.

14 Suspected Gay Men Attacked By Mob In Abuja

A mob armed with wooden clubs and iron bars, screaming that they were going to "cleanse" their neighborhood of gay people, dragged 14 young men from their beds and assaulted them, human rights activists said Saturday. Four of the victims were marched to a police station, where they allegedly were kicked and punched by police officers who yelled pejoratives at them, said Ifeanyi Orazulike of the International Center on Advocacy for the Right to Health. Police threatened that the men would be incarcerated for 14 years, he said, the maximum prison sentence under Nigeria's new Same Sex Marriage (Prohibition) Act, dubbed the "Jail the Gays" law. Activists have warned the law could trigger attacks such as the one perpetrated in the early hours of Thursday morning in Abuja, the capital of Africa's most populous nation. Mob justice is common in Nigeria and civil rights organizations have been warning for years of an increase in community violence and the government...

African Gays Now Seek Refuge In Abidjan

Image
Following the declaration of homosexuality as illegal in Nigeria, Uganda and other African countries, the perpetrators of the act are now seeking refuge in countries where their laws are less stringent. One of these nations is Cote d'Ivoire. No kissing, no petting. As gay bars go, this one is pretty well-behaved. But the crowd packing the Abidjan venue is relaxed and happy to be part of this haven of tolerance on a hostile continent. "In a gay club, we are much freer than in straight places," 22-year-old student Jacques tells AFP, looking on as three men sway their hips to Ivorian music on the dance floor. "We get no strange looks. Here we can unwind, feel at ease and let ourselves go." One man gently strokes his companion's neck but displays of affection stop there. The strict social codes prevailing in Ivory Coast apply here too. The patrons include several transvestites, one a 20-year-old teacher who goes by the name Malika, and who has been living as a w...
