South African Universities Set To Offer Witchcraft Courses

South African universities set to offer witchcraft in their school curriculum. If news making the rounds is anything to go by, then students will now have a chance to get an education on witchcraft. According to Live Monitor, plans to include witchcraft into university curriculums have been announced by the South African minister of higher education and training, Mr. Blade Nzimande.



According to Nzimande, the classes which will commence from 2018, is aimed at learning skills which are peculiar to people who practice witchcraft. Addressing student union representatives from across the country, he said: “There is a lot we can learn from witchcraft, like how they fly in that winnowing basket. Imagine if we learn that skill. It will eradicate traffic jams and everyone will just get in their basket and fly. It also means we will not be importing fuel anymore.”

Professor Johnbull canvasses healthy living in Episode 9


The ninth episode of the popular TV series, Professor Johnbull, entitled 'Mobile Dustbin' has made a strong case for healthy living in the society as a way of improving the quality of life of the people.
The series, sponsored by data grandmasters, Globacom, in this latest episode, pummeled habits that contribute to unhygienic environments. 
The opening scene of this episode featured award-winning Nollywood actor, and Glo ambassador, OC Ukeje, who played Efosa, storming the residence of the academic to inform him that Churchill had been arrested. 
The professor on receipt of the news went in search of his son. 
Meanwhile, the nkwobi seller, Olaniyi and the yam vendor, Mai Doya had their business premises sealed off. Etuk's hotel, where Samson works as a manager,  was not spared either. The allegation was that they kept filthy environments.
As usual, Professor Johnbull, the moral epitome of the TV drama series, lived up to his billing as the moral compass of his community by declining to throw his weight around with a view to freeing those who flouted the law on sanitation, including his son, Churchill (Jnr. Pope).

Woman Hanged Herself After Her Ex Boyfriend Leaks Sex Tape Of Her With New Guy

Tiziana Cantone who filmed herself having sex with her new boyfriend and sent it to her ex-boyfriend to taunt him, has committed suicide after he shared the video online and she was barraged with a lot of online abuse.
Her ex-boyfriend shared the highly explicit sex tape of the 31 year old and even revealed her full identity online as his own form of revenge. The video has been shared and downloaded on pornsites hundreds of thousands of times.
Tiziana, an Italian quit her job and relocated from Naples to Tuscany after reportedly being recognised and ridiculed and abused online and in real life.
She was in the process of legally changing her name when she was found dead, according to local press. Prosecutors have opened an inquest in her hometown-Naples which could bring criminal charges.
Teresa Petrosino, her friend, told Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera that Ms Catone was “destroyed” by the abuse.

“She had spoken of her desire to leave everything behind, and to close with the past”, she said. I wonder how anyone can be so fierce, how to rage against a girl who has not done anything wrong. I think that they should be ashamed of all those who have filled the web of insults and meanwhile secretly watched the images.”
