29 Year Old Kenyan Woman Dies After Donating Kidney to Her Uncle

A 29-year-old Kenyan woman lost her life while trying to save her uncle’s life.

 Rehema Kanini

The woman, Rehema Kanini, died at an Indian hospital on August 7th 2014 – three days after donating a kidney to her ill uncle, The Star reports. Her uncle survived the operation.

After the laparoscopic surgical procedure, Kanini seemed fine. She was reportedly in high spirits and very happy about the fact that she’d been able to save her uncle.

However, things started to change three days after the operation. She began to complain of dizziness and chest pains.

She was then taken to the hospital, but her condition continued to worsen. The doctors were unable to save her life.

A post-mortem report revealed that “a blood clot had blocked her main artery to the kidney and suffocated other main organs such as the brain, heart and lungs.”

Kanini has been described by her family and friends, as a selfless and compassionate individual. Her father had passed away a year ago due to heart failure. And so, when she heard that her uncle had been diagnosed with kidney malfunction, and would need an urgent transplant, she was determined to help save his life.

One of her last few posts on Facebook was: “If only we treated others like we would want to be treated, the world would be a happier place.”

Although Kanini’s death has caused sadness, her selfless acts serve as a source of inspiration to humanity.

R.I.P Rehema.

“I’m back Obama, and I’m back because of your arrogant foreign policy towards the Islamic State, because of your insistence on continuing your bombings on Mosul Dam, despite our serious warning. So just as your missiles continue to strike our people, our knife will continue to strike the necks of your people.”

Give Me Back My 30 Million Naira – Emenike Asks Governor Chime

Super Eagles striker, Emmanuel Emenike has asked Enugu state government to give him back his 30 million Naira (about $ 180,000) he invested in the state to build a sports academy after army men, stopped workers from working on it.

An angry Emenike told AfricanFootball that he acquired the land after the World cup had concluded through the help of a special assistant to the Enugu State Governor Frank Ndubuisi Ugwunweze (a.k.a Ezeumuaga), who forwarded all documents concerning to the land in Emenike’s name.

Emenike revealed that he bought the lands as he visits there regularly during his free time, so he found out about a free plots of land in the state and contacted Governor Sullivan Chime’s aide who further assisted in making the purchase.

Emenike in his own words said: “I worked hard to make my money, I know what I pass through on the pitch before I earn my living and it will be unfair if what am hearing about my land in Enugu State was true.

“I visit Enugu whenever I come to Nigeria, my friends stay there as well as some of my family
members. And I am the kind of person who allows for advise. Even before now, I had a dream to own an academy not only in Nigeria but I believe in the saying that “charity begins at home”.

“About three, four months ago, I acquired 13 plots of land in Enugu State through the special assistant to Governor Sullivan Chime. And during the time of conversation of the land papers he never told me there was any problem on the land. He gave me all the necessary documents in my name after payment.

He went on to reveal that when he asked work to begin in the state, the Chime led government ordered soldiers to stop the labourers.

He said: “I then directed for work to commence immediately, but the state government has directed soldiers to stop anybody from working there.”I don’t want to believe that this is fraud. I am ready to fight it all.

“I am not a politician and I see no reason why my money will be held by the government house.”

“I have called some top government officials in Enugu, but all of them are not trying to be sincere.

They could not help because the order came from the Governor.

“Nobody is trying to be sincere and as a matter of fact, I want my money back. I am very depressed that there is no confidence in investing in my country. I just don’t understand the pranks.

“Right from time, I don’t like going through government for anything. I prefer to do it with my money and I see no reason why my property will be held back by government.”

Emenike also demanded that the Governor gives him back his money, if the project won’t be allowed to continue, as he won’t like to see his hard earned cash dissapear into thin air.

“People go to government to get free land, but I will not do that because there is no sincerity in most of the things we do. And I will not be here and somebody takes my money, it will never happen,” he disclosed.

“I just want to believe that His Excellency Governor Chime was not aware of the purchase of the land, in that case, I will like to have my money back.”

Emenike plays for Turkish club Fenerbahce, and he is Nigeria’s main and mostly lone striker.

50 Cent Buys Mecedes Benz For 2-Year- Old Son As Birthday Gift

Back in May, the rapper was allegedly denied access to his 16 year old son’s graduation ceremony, he blamed it on his baby mama…

50 Cent has surprised his son on his 2nd birthday with a miniature motorized Mercedes ML450 SUV or precisely a junior version of his own ride.

According to close sources, the ‘Window Shopping’ rapper gifted his boy in Los Angeles this weekend with the sweet little car which he reportedly shopped himself.

The motorised Mercedes ML450 SUV was posted on 50′s Instagram account with a caption that read, “Lol he make me look like I’m getting soft. Lil50 trippin LMAO#SMSAUDIO #thebeauty.”

Father and son spent the weekend together eating lots of birthday cake and 50 also footed the bill for his big party on Monday.

Funny thing about this is, back in May, the rapper was denied access to his 16 year old son’s graduation ceremony. He later blamed it on his baby mama claiming he was never told about the exact date of the event. It was the same son he publicly went into a ridiculous twitter war with last year.

So what kind of father is 50 Cent exactly? Although we have reasons to believe the tough-talking rapper could also be a softie at heart.

Hungry Ebola Patient Flees Quarantine, Causes Panic In Market (See Video)

There was panic in a crowded market in Monrovia, Liberia, when a man infected with the deadly Ebola virus wandered in looking for food.

The patient who was wearing a wristband to show he had tested positive for the disease, was said to have escaped from Monrovia’s Elwa hospital, which last month was so crowded with cases of the deadly disease that it had to turn people away.

In the video, broadcast on Sky News, the infected man is seen arguing with some stallholders as he approached their stand. He was followed at a distance by a crowd.

Nigerian Lady gives birth to “White Baby” & makes Headlines (Photos)

Baby Jonah is making headlines in the UK!

The Daily Mirror published a story with the headline “Black mum gives birth to WHITE baby in 1,000,000-1 odds that baffled midwives“

Catherine who is of Nigerian parentage and her husband Richard who is white, expected their baby son to look “mixed” but when he was born, he was so white that she was convinced the midwives had brought her the wrong baby. Doctors have said the baby is not an albino.

Financial analyst Catherine said: “Some children get darker after a few weeks when the skin colour they will have for life starts to become obvious. But you can see from the colour at the tips of their ears what that will be. We saw straight away that Jonah was fully white.”

“We have been told that I must have been carrying a recessive gene,” said Catherine.

“My parents were from Nigeria and, for as far back as anyone can remember, my family have all been black.

“But at some point there must have been a white gene in my family that has remained dormant for years and years – until now.

“The doctors said they had researched the chances of this happening and discovered that it was very, very rare.

Black, white or mixed, baby Jonah is super cute!

A Nigerian Senator, Khalifa Zanna, said that Islamist terrorist group, Boko Haram, killed  two of his nephew in their take over of the second largest town, Bama in Borno state.

Senator Zanna whose hometown happens to be Bama, told SaharaReporters today that the Islamist terrorist group, have chased out the Nigerian troops and taken full control of the town and local government area.

The senator who said the Boko Haram terrorist have been driving around in armored tanks and military pickup in Bama said the sect killed two of his nephews named Babagana Mala Zanna, 28, and Yusuf Mala Zanna, 20, after finding them in his brother’s house in Bama early this morning.

Senator Zanna also said there were significant civilian deaths from the fierce firefight that lasted five hours between Nigerian troops and Boko Haram militants.

A Nigerian Air Force jet arrived the scene and bombed Bama twice. The first bomb was dropped on the barracks at Bama, a military source told SaharaReporters.

He said the jet dropped the bomb to prevent the sect from laying hands on the armory in Bama. The second bomb also destroyed an army tank seized by Boko Haram militants, said the soldier.

On Septemeber 1, the dreaded Boko Haram sect were said to have stormed Bama, Borno state.

It was reported, yesterday, that the Nigerian Army repelled Boko Haram attack in Bama andkilled over 50 members of the sect in fierce battle.

Nigerian Army Begins Airstrikes In Borno

The Nigerian military on Monday, 1 September, 2014, began airstrikes on Bama, Borno State’s second most important city, following fierce fighting with Boko Haram insurgents, security officials informed.

According to Premium Times, residents in Bama informed that the town came under attack from the insurgents on Monday morning forcing the military authorities to call in the air force for a sustained air attack on the town.

It was gathered that attention was focused around the military barracks suspected to be the target of the insurgents.

Another source informed that military commanders had withdrawn ground troops that had earlier engaged the terrorists to allow the use of sweeping air attacks.

The source added that the military had warned residents to leave the town ahead of the clash on Monday.

“But the insurgents seemed to have resorted to using a few of their members to create a detour (distraction) and make the aircrafts dissipate their bombs so that they would come attacking with a much larger force,” said the source.

It was gathered that Monday’s aerial bombardment of suspected insurgents commenced the gradual roll-out of full force against the sect by the Nigerian military.

“We were all along restrained because of the Chibok girls,” a top military source said. “But the time has now come to do something drastic. We cannot afford to allow a rag tag group to take over our country.”

A local vigilante, on Monday, said that about 70 Boko Haram terrorists were killed by soldiers as the insurgents attempted to storm the town and seize the barracks.

A top security official in Maiduguri confirmed the attack but did not give casualty figure or state which side suffered more damage.
