  • RWANDA Police Arrest Serial killer Suspect After Finding Bodies In Kitchen

    RWANDA Police Arrest Serial killer Suspect After Finding Bodies In Kitchen

    According To African News, A suspected serial killer has been arrested after the discovery of more than 10 corpses in a pit dug in the kitchen of his Kigali home, Rwandan police and media reported on Wednesday. Police said the 34-year-old suspect met his victims – men and women – in bars and lured them to his rented accommodation on the outskirts of the Rwandan capital.


    “He operated by luring his victims, mostly prostitutes, to his home, where he stole their phones and other personal belongings before strangling them and burying them in a pit dug in his kitchen,”

    Said Rwandan Bureau of Investigation (RIB) spokesman Thierry Murangira, quoted by local media. The Rwandan media claimed that more than 10 bodies had been found, and a source within the RIB told AFP, on condition of anonymity, that 14 victims had been counted so far.

    The RIB spokesman, contacted by AFP, declined to confirm this figure, telling AFP that

    “the final number (of victims) will be determined by forensic investigations”.

    The suspect had already been arrested in July on suspicion of rape and robbery, but was released on bail for lack of evidence, said spokesman Thierry Murangira.

    The investigation followed its course and it was during a search of his home that the bodies were discovered in the kitchen pit.

    “The suspect confessed to having learned to kill by watching (videos about) known serial killers. He dissolved some of his victims in acid”. “He studied his victims before luring them (to his home) and favored those most likely to have no close family or friends”

    Who would be less concerned about their disappearance.

  • 90% of Money Made By Nigeria’s International Artists Stays Outside the Country Says Filmmaker CHARLES NOVIA

    90% of Money Made By Nigeria’s International Artists Stays Outside the Country Says Filmmaker CHARLES NOVIA

    Reports by Arise News, Filmmaker and CEO Teen Africa TV Charles Novia has said the new Ministry of Arts, Culture, and Creative Economy, overseen by Barr. Hannatu Musawa, should look into creating structures that direct the revenue of the creative economy to contribute greatly to the Nigerian economy rather than the international scene. In an interview with Arise News on Monday, Novia spoke of the numerous interests and investments in the sector right now.

    The Culture and Creative industry has been described as a good potential to tap into and contribute to the Nigerian economy if properly harnessed. He stated that the new ministry will have to address the money made from these industries leaving the country, and not really contributing to the Nigerian economy.

    He said,

    “Burna Boy would do maybe a million or 2 million dollars or sell 10 million dollars worth of streams, I can tell you that 90% of that money is in the US. It doesn’t come to Nigeria. “Any young artist who ‘blows’, becomes popular, has a big hit, shifts out of the country immediately. “We are not feeling much of that impact here because the structures for supporting those artists within the touring systems are not here.”

    Novia said the minister might take time to get used to the industry saying,

    “We might have a square peg in a round hole.“ That is not what we need now. We need to have policy discussions with people in the industry and then we set the agenda right for her.”


    He said,

    “We are not speaking with one voice, so we need to start getting ourselves into a regulatory framework to begin to push for the right things for our own people, so the minister can help in that regard”.

    He also highlighted the blurred lines between the industries, including Arts, Culture, Creative Economy and Tourism, and the importance of delineating the parastatals under them.

It said four states Kano, Borno, Katsina and Lagos – were presently ranked highest in the food insecurity ladder. The UN agency said better funding was needed to help carry out sensitization and advocacy campaigns in remote areas as well as provide for succor for children facing severe malnutrition in the country.

    Speaking on Wednesday, at the opening of a two-day Workshop on Media Dialogue on Nutrition Financing in Nigeria, held in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, the UNICEF Communication Specialist, Mr. Geoffrey Njoku, said the dialogue was intended to identify funding gaps in national and budgets for addressing issues of child malnutrition and how to fill the gaps. UNICEF Nutrition Officer, Nkeiru Enwelum, who delivered a paper on,

    “Nutrition situation in Nigeria, An Overview of malnutrition in Nigeria and its impact on children,” said that currently about 35 million in Nigeria were malnourished.“

    “About 35 million of under five children in Nigeria and out of this we have 12 million of them malnourished. And we have about three million that was wasted in Nigeria,” she said.

    She added some of the diseases or resultant body malfunction arising from malnutrition were known as micro nutrient deficiency, anemia, rickett, vitamin A deficiency (xerophamia). Enwelum, also gave an assessment of progress being made on interventions in the health sector, saying exclusive breastfeeding was perhaps the only aspect of the SDGs that Nigeria was making progress and may likely meet the target by 2030.

     Cee-C Go Toe To Toe With Ilebaye And Cross On ‘BBNaija All Stars’

    According To Pulse, Cynthia Nwadiora popularly known as Cee-C didn’t seem to wake up on the right side of the bed with an early morning discord with fellow BBNaija All Stars housemates, Ilebaye and Cross. Ilebaye and Cee-C were seen trying to trash out a misunderstanding that caused them to avoid each other for about a week during their stay in the BBNaija house.

    Apparently, they had an issue previously over facial wipes provided by Big Brother to the housemates. Ilebaye insisted on them discussing the issues, but Cee-C was reluctant expressing that Ilebaye was adult enough to know what was wrong or right. She also asked Ilebaye to be grateful for age as the reason she wouldn’t respond duly to the issue,

    “I think you like to trigger shit… the luck wey you get na old age if you had met me 2018 Baye you go commot for this house”.

    With Cross, he didn’t seem to agree with Cee-C’s method of clearing out the dirt on the table. In his opinion, she should clear out the leftovers before trashing the containers, but Cee-C wasn’t having it. She said she felt those who left the place that way, were the ones in the wrong. Things quickly turned to a back and forth between them for a few minutes and they still didn’t come to a resolve after the altercation.
