A 34-year-old man, Mr. Shola Balogun, has narrated how he was allegedly kidnapped, but narrowly escaped in the Abule Egba area of Lagos.

Balogun, who digs boreholes for a living, told Punch  that he was allegedly kidnapped last week Friday, November 7, by a customer he had never met before, identified simply as Babatunde.

Balogun further claimed that Babatunde lured him into an apartment on Jola Osho Street in Abule Egba, where it dawned on him that he had been kidnapped.

Our correspondent learnt that Balogun, after his escape, reported the incident at the Meiran Police Division.

A customer, identified simply as Sunday, had earlier called Balogun on the telephone, and had urged him to speak with Babatunde, who reportedly wanted to sink a borehole in his house.

He alleged that Babatunde, who is said to be about 60 years old, lured him into one of the rooms and locked him up.
He said,
“I had not met the man before. It was Sunday who linked me up with him and said he wanted to dig a borehole. So, the man took me to the house on Friday.
“As we entered the building, he began to show me the rooms. Then, when we got to the kitchen, he said the door was not opening, and I should help him use the keys. When I turned the keys and the door opened, he bolted it behind me quickly.
“When I asked him what he was doing, he simply replied, ‘Do you know who I am?’. At that point, it dawned on me that I had been kidnapped.”
 Balogun added that he later managed to climb the ceiling, and noticed an opening on the roof, where he forced his way out.
“I was crawling through the ceiling with difficulty until I saw an opening on the roof, where I forced myself out. When I came out about an hour later, the man, obviously shocked to see me, ran, telling the people around that I was mad, and they should not pay attention to whatever I was saying.”
The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Kenneth Nwosu, said a case of kidnapping had not been established as investigation was still ongoing.

Here is what Ali Baba wrote this morning about how a woman a can make or break a man..(That's his wife in the photo he shared alongside the message)
"Behind every successful man... These are not empty words. It's not only about who the woman is. It's about how much the woman allows you to become. What she does to help you become. How she understands you. What she tolerates. How she makes you feel... Just so you understand where I am coming from, a lady who always nags and stresses you, will choke your thoughts.(continue)
A lady who thinks you can never be anything will first kill your spirit, so even if you make it, in spite of her belief that you won't, it would be by no help from her. You might just be challenged to make it because she is making it because you don't want to lose your position as the provider. So, her success inspires you to achieve... You also might be driven to succeed if she celebrates you and you do not want that to stop... Soooo if Get my drift... Behind every successful man... There is a woman... Finally I say, there are many guys whose greatness was truncated not by their lack of capacity but because behind them were people who did not want them to succeed or did not help to succeed. Be guided"

The mother of two just shared these first post baby pic..Though it's for a cause, she looks amazing

A Saudi girl called the police on her father after he tricked her into marrying a man in his 90s..
According to Gulfnews.com, the 17-year-old had initially accepted her father's wish for her to marry a handsome man in his 20s after meeting the groom-to-be at her house.
But to her surprise ,when the wedding contract was drawn up, she discovered that the paperwork showed her new husband was a different man in his 90s who lived in another city.

She then fled home and called police to prevent her being sent to her new groom in Medina.
The case was eventually taken to the court which on Tuesday issued its verdict to declare the marriage “null and void”.
Social media users blasted the father for his behaviour accusing him of “selling his daughter to the old man.”They said that legal action should be taken against him for his abuse of his daughter’s trust and for chartering a horrible future for her.

Heyyyyy "home breakers". "Life is a misery. .. Nemesis must surely hit back in another way.

A mother has undergone surgery to remove part of her brain in a bid to stop crippling seizures which she claims are triggered by the sound of Neyo's voice..Zoe Fennessy, 26,says within seconds of hearing his voice,she has an epileptic seizure which make her freeze, vomit and unable to react to the world around her.
The healthcare assistant has to wear earphones whenever she goes shopping just in case Neyo's  tunes are played in stores.Surgeons removed part of her left frontal lobe in June in a bid to stop the affliction.But the surgery was not successful and doctors now fear she may have the condition forever.

Miss Fennessy - who has been unable to work for six months because of her affliction  told Mailonline
 'I don't dislike Ne-Yo or his music, it just dislikes me unfortunately.I'll be walking around the supermarket doing my food shopping and I have to put my earphones in to listen to my own music just in case it comes on.
'It's the same with most shops. I have to walk in with my ear phones in at first just to make sure they don't have Ne-Yo on.If he ever releases a greatest hits album it's going to be a nightmare.Whenever I hear the first few beats of the song I have to drop whatever I am doing and run..'People might think it is funny - and I can laugh at it myself - but it has taken over my life. It's ruined my life.'
It wasn't until she heard Ne-Yo's first big hit, 'Give Me Everything' featuring Pitbull - which topped the charts in May 2011 - that she had her first music-induced seizure.
It took me a while to realise that they were being triggered by his songs.
'It wasn't until I'd heard it for about the 15th time that it finally twigged what was going on.' The song was really popular and I went to my consultant and I said "I know this sounds extremely bizarre, but every time I hear this song I have a seizure". He said it was fascinating and that he'd never heard anything like it.I stressed that while it might be fascinating, I was really struggling - the song was everywhere at the time.'

In June this year, Miss Fennessy endured a six-hour long operation to remove a huge chunk of her left temporal lobe where doctors thought all her seizures may originate.
But while the symptoms of her epilepsy have reduced, she still has a fit every time she hears Ne-Yo's voice.
I have had to go up to DJs in places and say 'look can you not play Ne-Yo' and they just look at me like I'm an alien,'[Doctors] are saying it could possibly be something in the tone of his voice, something like that, but it doesn't happen when I hear Usher, or people like him who have a very similar sound. It is only him, only Ne-Yo.'
'Our holiday this year to Majorca was a nightmare. Honestly it was like being at a Ne-Yo concert - the song was everywhere.I had to stay in the hotel room for most of the holiday because it got so bad.'
She has been clinically diagnosed with 'musicogenic seizures' which are triggered by the tone of Ne-Yo's voice.

The Lagos State Police Command has arrested a trader, Mr. Lawrence Ikonne, for allegedly killing a buyer, Isa Yaya, because the deceased haggled over the price of a commodity.

Punch learnt that the incident occurred at Ikonne’s residence on Afro Close, Afromedia Estate, Okokomaiko, Lagos.Our correspondent learnt that Ikonne sold electronic appliances at the Alaba International Market, Ojo, Lagos.

It was learnt that the victim, 22-year-old Yaya, from northern Nigeria, had gone to Ikonne’s apartment to buy a fairly used air conditioner. Yaya, it was said, usually bought and re-sold condemned iron and electrical materials.

Our correspondent gathered that Ikonne, 26, from the Isiala-Ngwa South Local Government Area of Abia State, had gone to Alaba market on the morning of Friday, October 10, where he first met Yaya.Ikonne had also reportedly invited the deceased to his house to buy his second-hand air conditioner.
When they got to the house, it was said that the two of them went inside a room to bring out the commodity, and they started haggling over the price.It was gathered that Yaya insisted on buying the air conditioner below N5, 000- a price which did not go down well with Ikonne.As the haggling continued, a fight was said to have ensued between the two which turned violent during which Ikonne allegedly hit Yaya with a plank in the belly.
During interrogation, the suspect explained that he had asked Yaya to either pay N5, 000 or assist him to return the commodity to where they brought it from but Yaya had refused. Ikonne added that he felt insulted by this attitude.

He said, “I had not met the young man before. I met him that morning at the Alaba market, and asked him to buy one of my appliances: an air conditioner. He actually looked like a cart pusher. When we got home, we both went in to remove the product, and we brought it outside for negotiation.As we continued, he said he would pay less than N5, 000. I replied that he should assist me to return it to where we took it from, but he refused. In the process, we started fighting. He even asked me to pay him for helping me bring it out. I was mad, and I hit his belly with a plank.
“When I realised he had fainted, I tied him with a rope and dragged him into a corner. I also fled the house.”
Our correspondent gathered that it was one of Ikonne’s co-tenants who noticed Yaya’s corpse where he was tied up.
He then raised the alarm, and reported the case to the Okokomaiko police station. The policemen later came to arrest Ikonne.
