Zamfara: 2 People Drown, 3 Survive Large Waterway Flood In Zamfara
Zamfara: 2 people drown while 3 survive large waterway flood in Zamfara.
News ToGo No fewer than two people have drowned in a large waterway at Fira-da Kwaddi community, currently, under reconstruction in Gusau, Zamfara State.
The water reportedly overflowed and covered the whole area destroying many homes and farms.
Three survivors who spoke said they tried to save the victims but they, unfortunately, died during the rescue process.
One of the survivors said the first, a 21-year-old man and his uncle entered the water to rescue their nephew but they all died as the tension of the water overpowered them while the three who were on a rescue mission survived.
“We did all we could to rescue the two but in the end, we fell victims and shouted for assistance which some experts in our area saved our lives” one of the survivors added.
He explained that the rescuers found the dead body of the man who was to rescue his nephew but the first victim’s dead body could not be found at the time of filing this report.
However, the father of the late victim, Malam Adamu said the incident was very unfortunate and prayed for the repose of the departed souls.
This medium reports that the rescuers were still working hard to recover the remaining bodies from the water.
YouTube has removed the primary channel associated with the late founder of the Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN), Prophet TB Joshua—Emmanuel TV.
News ToGo reports that the channel, which broadcasts the religious activities of the church, was taken down following allegations against the late preacher. This action comes after the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) aired controversial documentary reports about allegations of torture and rape linked to TB Joshua.
The termination of Emmanuel TV’s channel on YouTube is a response to the platform’s policies against hate speech, cyberbullying, and harassment, particularly targeting survivors of sexual violence. The move follows openDemocracy’s report on more than 50 abusive videos amplifying attacks against Joshua’s accusers.
The documentary by BBC World Service, in collaboration with openDemocracy, featured whistleblowers who made on-the-record allegations of sexual and psychological torture, financial fraud, and criminal negligence by Joshua. In a disturbing backlash, YouTube accounts promoting SCOAN shared archival video footage depicting experiences of these abuse survivors, leading to the termination of Emmanuel TV’s channel.
A Nigerian woman has detailed the reasons behind her decision to end her marriage shortly before their third wedding anniversary.
News ToGo gathered that in a TikTok video, she revealed that she severed ties with her husband to save her life after uncovering his involvement in alleged ritualistic activities. She also disclosed that her husband was intending to use her for money rituals.
The woman, who smashed a mug she had crafted for their anniversary in the video, claimed that their daughter was substituted in her stead for the purported money ritual.
