 ZIMBABWEAN COUPLE DEPORTED OVER SECRET BURIAL OF CHILD IN BOTSWANA A Zimbabwean couple has been deported from Botswana after secretly burying their child without notifying authorities. Motilinah Mpofu and Christopher Ncube were convicted on Thursday of concealing a death after they allegedly dug a grave for their child in the dead of night. The Gaborone court heard the child had died suddenly. Instead of reporting the death to police, health officials, or traditional leaders, the couple quietly buried the youngster and hoped no one would find out.

 Snakes, Lizards Invade Benue Schools as Teachers, Pupils Abandon Classrooms


Public primary schools in Owukpa, Benue State, are on the brink of collapse, with deserted classrooms overtaken by snakes and lizards due to years of government neglect, insecurity, and lack of teachers.

Iconic institutions like LGEA Primary Schools in Ikwo, Ekere, Achi, and Udaburu now lie in ruins—some without a single pupil or teacher. In schools still operational, one or two teachers manage entire student bodies, often fewer than ten pupils.


Community leaders, former teachers, and alumni lament the government's failure to recruit replacements since the last major teacher hiring in 2007. The reversal of recent employment by Governor Hyacinth Alia has worsened the crisis.

Community members warn that if urgent action isn’t taken, public primary education in Owukpa may disappear completely.
