      According to an eyewitness:    “This sad incident happened yesterday at Awada in Onitsha . The 2 women are living together in a flat because their husbands share a flat in one compound. Even though their husbands are friends, The wives never got along and was always quarreling but nothing prepared us for what we saw this morning…. When their husband left for shop this morning, another round of fight began and this time it was different. we heard screaming and then a huge thud and then wailing and crying ensured I rushed to the verandah and discovered to my dismay that the women fell from their 3rd floor flat and both of them shattered many bones in their bodies. Both couldnt stand but i suspect that the other may have broken her spinal cord because she couldnt move a limb and her head was severely bashed and she was bleeding heavily. They have been rushed to Toronto hospital to ascertain the level of their injuries while we called up their husbands.

      The Presidency expresses delight at the withdrawal of one of four petitions challenging the victory of President Muhammadu Buhari in the February 2019 election. The Presidency commends the Coalition for Change (C4C) following the withdrawal of its case through its lawyer, at the resumed hearing before the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal on Monday.
