 Peter Obi has blamed hunger and systemic failures for the recent spate of stampedes across the country.  Scores of persons were dead, and many others wounded in the tragic incidents in Ibadan, Oyo State; Okija in Anambra and another one in the nation’s capital of Abuja. The stampedes happened in a space of five days with the last two occurring on Saturday morning during food distribution campaigns. Obi, who was the Labour Party (LP)’s presidential candidate in the 2023 election, said the incidents underline the rising hunger in the country which has led to desperation. “I am deeply saddened and distressed by the tragic loss of lives in desperate searches for food,” Obi, who is a former governor of Anambra State, wrote in a post on his X account Saturday afternoon. “While I will not cast blame but instead appreciate the organizers of these respective events for their kind gestures in providing palliatives and support to society, especially the poor, these tragedies reflect the...

TEXAS: A 12-YEAR-OLD BOY AND A 7-YEAR-OLD BOY STAB THEIR 59-YEAR-OLD NEIGHBOR AFTER A SHORT ARGUMENT. (PHOTO).


 Texas- A 12-year-old boy and a 7-year-old boy stab their 59-year-old neighbor with cognitive disabilities after a short argument.


Harris County Sheriff's Department responded to a home in Houston after the 59-year-old woman's brother went to check on her and noticed she was suffering from several serious wounds to her stomach.


When asked about what happened the woman simply said the boys from the neighborhood had poked her in the stomach.


As police investigated they uncovered surveillance video that showed the entire ordeal.


The woman, who neighbors describe as problematic due to her deteriorating mental state, and the 2 boys are involved in a brief argument as they ride their bikes past her house. Only moments later the 2 boys can be seen returning to the home. Both of the children are wearing gloves and quickly make their way into the garage. 


Once inside the two boys allegedly stabbed the woman multiple times in the stomach. After the attack the 2 boys can be seen running back out and getting on their bikes before riding away.


The woman was transported to a local hospital where she underwent surgery and spent the weekend in critical condition. However reports today say she is recovering.


The 12-year-old was taken into custody and charged with aggravated assault. Texas has a law on the books that prohibits children under 10 years old from being charged in a crime so the 7-year-old child will not be charged.


The boy's mother has released the following statement; "I'm very sorry to the family, I'm very sorry my sons have committed this incident. And I'm praying for your health, for your wellness." She added her son has mental problems.


We will update.
