Photo: Kano Govt empowers limbless Rahma Haruna and her family with foodstuffs and cash gifts Posted: 30 Jan 2016 01:16 PM PST Kano State Govt through the state Commissioner for Women Affair, Barr. Zubaida Damakka Abubakar empowered the family of Rahma Haruna, a limbless 19-year old girl of Lahadin Makole in Dawakin Kudu local government area of Kano state. Rahma, who has no functional limbs but tiny appendages in the position of arms and legs, is being moved about in a synthetic washbasin by a young cousin, to beg for alms in Kano city, about 26 kilometers from her village. The earnings help in sustaining the family of four. Her father, Haruna Muhammad said her challenge started when she was 6 months old and largely due to poverty, he could not take her for specialized medical attention. He had sold his farm and personal belongings but no progress was recorded in her treatment. At last, he resigned to the sad fate, which many people in his community seem to believe, that her condition is the handiwork of evil spirits. Because of her condition, the poor girl cannot do virtually anything without the support of a family member. She and her brother, who carries her to solicit alms to feed the poor family, do not go to school. While presenting the donation of empowerment items to the family on Friday, January 29, the Commissioner of Women Affairs, Barr. Zubaida Damakka said the state government is touched by the condition of the girl stressing that the government would do all it could to see that Rahma does not feel forsaken. "Government would continue to look after her welfare to ensure that she lives as comfortable as possible and to make sure that she does not beg because of her physical challenge" the commissioner assured. Barrister Zubaida stated that she was "amazed by the girl's zeal to do something meaning for herself rather than the usual street begging which she and her younger brother engaged in", adding that the donation was meant to empower the family so that they can earn a living decently and take their children to school. |

Rihanna's new album goes platinum just one day after release but Billboard mag won't recongnize it! Posted: 30 Jan 2016 10:54 AM PST Rihanna released her new album 'Anti' this week, first on Tidal and then on iTunes. And yesterday the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) certified it with Platinum status...but Billboard magazine refused to recognize the platinum status. And here's why. As part of a $25million deal with Samsung, Anti became available as a free download on Jay Z's Tidal this week, making it to go platinum instantly... The free download is the reason Billboard isn't interested. A Billboard spokesperson tells Digital Trends, "Billboard has a well documented policy of not counting free albums towards the charts."Physical copies of the album will go on sale Feb 5th. |

Photo: Update on the young boy whose eyes were removed by ritualists in Kaduna Posted: 30 Jan 2016 10:59 AM PST Remember the 3year old little boy named Abubakar Usman whose eyes were removed by some ritualists in Kaduna last week? Read story here. The boy's father, Usman Isa, says doctors at the Ahmadu Bello University have performed an operation on the little boy. According to Isa who spoke with Daily Trust, the doctors said the ritualists removed everything in the boys eyes and that there was no hope of him seeing again except by a miracle. "The Kaduna hospital has referred us back to ABUTH. Doctors have conducted surgery yesterday. From what they told us, the perpetrators have removed everything that has to do with the eyes, which would make fixing them difficult. However, doctors said that they would review the operation to see the outcome, hoping they can fix artificial ones." He said the doctors said the artificial eyes would be fixed just to fill the holes, but not for the young boy to see. "Except if Allah performs a miracle," he sobbed.Meanwhile the grandmother of little Usman, Malama Hadiza Usman, narrated how she got to know that her grandson's eyes had been removed by ritualists while he was on his way to an evening Islamiyya class. In tears, Malama Hadiza told Daily Trust that she would never forget the incident for the rest of her life. "I'd given him N5 to buy sweets on his way, on Sunday, January 24. He left the house with his brother Umar, but on their way they were intercepted by yet-to-be identified men who took him to an uncompleted building and gouged his eyes out." At the hospital, little Abubakar was telling those around him to open his eyes to enable him see his mother and grandmother. "Open my eyes, I want to see Mama. Mama, where are you? Where's Grandma?" he kept wailing. |
