 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...

UPDATE: AMERICAN WOMAN FOUND CHAINED TO A TREE IN INDIA ADMITS SHE CHAINED HERSELF TO THE TREE AND SHE WAS NEVER MARRIED. (PHOTO).


 Update- American woman found chained to a tree in India admits she chained herself to the tree and she was never married.


50-year-old Lalita Kumar was found chained to a tree deep in the Indian Jungle on June 27th. The shepard who discovered her quickly notified authorities and a rescue effort ensued. When local authorities arrived on scene they discovered an emaciated Kumar bound to a tree by iron chains. Her passport and an expired Visa along with some other personel effects were found near by.


Once she was freed and taken to a nearby hospital Kunar alleged said she could only communicate through writing because she had lock jaw. Through a series of notes she outlined a shocking story where her husband had chained her to the tree and she hadn't eaten in 40 days.


Indian officials were skeptical from the beginning, saying that although she was emaciated, they didn't believe a person could actually survive such an ordeal. After some investigating, her story began to fall apart. Now Kumar has come clean, admitting she chained herself to the tree. 


Her reasons seem to be financial combined with a deteriorating mental state. She also claimed to have been seeing hallucinations and that her lock jaw was in fact a side effect from an injection for psychosis. 


It's not clear whether Indian authorities plan on pressing any charges against Kumar. She has been in contact with family back in the United States.
