FOUR FAMILY MEMBERS DIE AFTER EATING ‘AMALA’ IN KOGI

The victims—a father, his two children, and a relative living with them—were said to have passed away in quick succession between Friday, September 30 and Sunday, October 2.
It was gathered that the family prepared the ‘Amala’ meal from the left-over cassava flour from which they had previously made and eaten ‘Fufu’. They were said to have spread the processed shafts in the sun to dry for some days.
However, after eating the meal on Thursday last week, they became sick overnight and efforts were made to stabilise them.
The family’s youngest member passed away on Friday, quickly followed on Saturday by the relative living with the family.
The others were immediately moved to the ECWA Hospital, Egbe, for better medical attention. Sadly, the eldest of the daughters, Motun, gave up the ghost at about 3:00 am Sunday. The father also died later that Sunday.
The man’s wife, identified as Molomo, is still alive at the hospital and under close observation.
Speaking during a condolence visit to the palace of the Elulu of Mopa on behalf of the governor, the state Commissioner for Information and Communications, Kingsley Fanwo, assured Mopa residents of its determination to unravel the mystery leading to the death of the victims.
The governor has directed security and health authorities to get to the root of the matter. I want to assure your highness that the reports of their findings would be made public and necessary actions taken,” Fanwo said.
Meanwhile, friends have taken to Facebook to mourn one of the victims, Motilewa Tunrayo Peace, who is said to be a National Certificate of Education holder and teacher in the town.

Nigerians fume as young boy who was promised heaven and earth during presidential election is neglected

In what appears to be a disheartening turn of events, Nigerians are expressing their disappointment as the young election hero, whose viral video of chasing Peter Obi’s convoy captivated the nation, has allegedly been left empty-handed despite grand promises made during the presidential election campaign.
The incident has reignited debates over the credibility of campaign pledges and the treatment of citizens who actively participate in political processes.
During the presidential elections campaign, the young boy was promised a myriad of rewards ranging from scholarships abroad to substantial financial compensation.
These assurances were intended to recognize and appreciate his bold act of running after the convoy of Peter Obi, the former vice-presidential candidate, in a fervent display of support.
However, five months have elapsed since the general elections took place, and the promised rewards have failed to materialize, leaving the young election hero disillusioned and causing Nigerians to voice their grievances.
Social media platforms have been inundated with expressions of frustration, highlighting the broken trust between politicians and the electorate.
