 LASG REAFFIRMS COMMITMENT TO END TUBERCULOSIS IN COMMUNITIES IN LAGOS STATE The Lagos State Government on Tuesday reaffirmed its commitment to completely eradicate Tuberculosis (TB) at the grassroots level across the metropolis.  The Permanent Secretary, Lagos State Health District III, Dr. Monsurat Adeleke made this known during a courtesy visit by the Institute of Human Virology, Nigeria team to her Ikoyi office, emphasising the present administration's commitment to continually prioritise health security across the state. She said the Lagos State First Lady, Dr. (Mrs.) Claudiana Sanwo-Olu, is a Tuberculosis (TB) champion with the mandate of ending TB now and the continuous expansion of TB scale-up diagnostic centres.  According to her, “The First Lady of Lagos State, Dr. (Mrs.) Claudiana Sanwo-Olu is a TB champion.

EGYPTIAN KICKED OUT OF THE U.S FOR KICKING A SNIFFER DOG THAT FOUND STUFFED VEGETABLE INGREDIENTS. (PHOTO).


 

    An Egyptian man trying to smuggle over 100 pounds of food through Dulles Airport punted a CBP beagle into the air when the pup sniffed out the scam, resulting in the creep’s deportation, the agency announced.


    Customs and Border Protection Brigader Beagle Freddie, 5, caught a whiff of something suspicious coming from the luggage of Hamed Ramadan Bayoumy Aly Marie, 70, who arrived at the Washington, DC, airport from Cairo on Tuesday, CBP said in a release.


    As the detector dog alerted his handlers to Marie’s bags, the 70-year-old violently kicked Freddie with enough force to lift the 25-pound beagle into the air, the release stated.


    CBP officers then took Marie down, placed him in custody, and turned him over to Homeland Security officials.


    While inspecting the dog-kicker’s luggage, CBP officers found enough undeclared sundries to start a restaurant, including 55 pounds of beef, 44 pounds of rice, 15 pounds of eggplant, 2 pounds of corn seeds, cucumbers, bell peppers, and 1 pound of herbs.


Did he really think he could smuggle that much raw food into the country in his luggage without there being a smell? It's an absolute given a dog would be able to detect it, and just the weight of it seems likely to have drawn attention, too.


If it's not his first trip in an airplane, surely Customs would have opened such a suitcase from abroad and found the prohibited items, but the dog got there first.


It's such a strange case. Did he really think such foodstuffs wouldn't be purchasable in the U.S.? Even Washington D.C. has many Middle Eastern groceries with its specialties.


Biggest question of all was in his treatment of the dog. Did he really think kicking the working Customs and Border Patrol-trained dog into the air would have made inspection of his suitcase less likely?"
