 A 13-year-old Florida boy lost his life inside of a tube slide at a playground, leaving behind a shocked and grief-stricken family. The heartbreaking discovery was made when a father took his two children to Shenandoah Park in Miami on September 25th to work out some energy.  What they discovered when trying to use the tube slide may keep these young children from ever playing in an enclosed slide again. 13-year-old Olvin Ballladares was inside of the slide ...and unresponsive.  According to reports, Olvin had gone to the park that morning instead of school. While at the park, Olvin had attempted to slide down the tube slide. While traveling down the slide, Olvin's shirt became caught on a screw and pulled tight around his neck, cutting off his supply to oxygen.  From the way that he was discovered, it appears Olvin had realized what was happening and tried to free himself but was unable.

 Kogi CJ Grants Release to 27 Inmates with the Help of NGO


The Chief Judge of Kogi State, Justice Josiah Majebi, has facilitated the release of 27 inmates from six correctional facilities in the state. These individuals had been detained due to their inability to pay fines and compensation.


The releases were made possible through the efforts of the Victory Idewele Foundation, which paid the outstanding fines and compensation. Justice Majebi visited the correctional centres from Monday to Wednesday to oversee the process.


At Koton-Karfe Maximum Security Correctional Centre, two inmates were granted freedom. Mustapha Idris, who owed N50,000, was released, while Kehinde Amaka, who was sentenced to one year with a N300,000 fine, will remain in custody until January 15, 2025, to serve the rest of his sentence.


Additionally, 20 inmates were released from the Medium Security Custodial Centre in Kabba, and 5 from Ankpa. Justice Majebi emphasized the importance of ensuring no inmate is unjustly detained and urged magistrates to avoid being used as instruments of oppression. He also criticized unnecessary delays in legal cases by some prosecutors, which cause lengthy detentions for awaiting trial inmates.


He commended the Victory Idewele Foundation for its contribution, noting that this initiative was a first in the state’s history. The foundation paid a total of ten million naira to settle the fines, while also providing transport fare for the released inmates. The foundation has pledged to further support the inmates with skill acquisition training in Abuja, including accommodation, meals, and starter packs upon completion.


Justice Majebi also acknowledged the efforts of the chairman of Idah Local Government, who has shown concern for the local custodial centre, and urged other local government leaders to follow suit.


Innocent Idewele, founder of the Victory Idewele Foundation, explained that the NGO aims to improve the lives of underprivileged individuals and emphasized that societal needs should not be left solely to the government to address.
