Scientists Claim They've Solved Mystery Of Bible's Legendary Garden Of Eden River After 1.6m Years Researchers say they have reconstructed how the Euphrates River formed, tracing its development to two ancient river systems that joined approximately 1.6 million years ago. The study, published in Nature Geoscience, offers an explanation for the geological origins of a waterway that helped sustain early civilisations and is named in the Book of Genesis among the rivers associated with the Garden of Eden. According to the findings described in the report, the modern Euphrates emerged from two previously separate rivers, known as the Paleo-Karasu and Paleo-Murat, which flowed across areas now within Turkey and Syria. Over millions of years, movements in the Earth’s crust altered the landscape and redirected the waterways until they became connected. To reconstruct that history, the researchers combined seismic imaging, satellite observations, geological mapping and analysis of sedi...

 UNIBEN lecturer acquitted of alleged rape


Edo State High Court, Benin presided over by Justice Mary Itsueli, has discharged and acquitted a lecturer in the Department of English and Literature of the University of Benin (UNIBEN) Dr. Bode Ekundayo of alleged rape three years after.

Ekundayo, an Associate Professor, was alleged to have demanded sex for mark from a 21-year-old, 400-level student, Miss Anita Adesuwa Efosa, on October 5, 2021.

The youthful lecturer was accused of raping Efosa in his office at UNIBEN’s Faculty Complex during the day. 

He was queried and interdicted by the management of the university pending the investigation of the allegation by the police and the court’s judgment.

Ekundayo was detained for some weeks and arraigned for alleged rape but granted bail on stringent  conditions.

He was, however, discharged and acquitted for lack of substantial proof and evidence in the suit with reference number: B/CD/8CV/22.

Justice Itsueli stressed that the prosecution team failed completely to prove the case against beyond reasonable doubt. 

The presiding judge noted that even if anyone was to believe the claims of the alleged victim in their face value, there was no substantial proof or evidence whatsoever to establish sexual intercourse or rape.

Justice Itsueli upheld the no-case submission filed by the defense/lecturer’s counsel, Dr. Osagie Obayuwana, a former Edo Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice.

The presiding judge declared that the prosecuting team failed to tender UNIBEN Health Centre’s medical test result as exhibit to the court during the trial, since the report and findings negated their claims.

She noted that the report of the tests at Vivian Medical Centre, Benin conducted a day after the alleged rape and tendered as evidence, failed to scientifically show the evidence or proof of rape. 

Justice Itsueli pointed out that a medical doctor, from Vivian medical centre, who presented the report, admitted in court that there was no way sexual intercourse or rape could be established after 24 hours and based his findings on the alleged victim’s oral history and claims.

She insisted that the prosecuting team could not establish the three main ingredients of rape: penetration, sexual intercourse and no consent.

The presiding judge also relied on the investigations of policemen that examined the accused and alleged victim physically and visited the scene of alleged rape, with the police report stating that there were no bruises on their bodies, no torn clothes, and the office of the lecturer, said to have been broken into, to rescue the undergraduate, was intact, thereby describing the incident as a clear setup.

Justice Itsueli subsequently dismissed the case for lack of evidence.
