Drug Addict Gouges Out His Own Eyes & Eats Them in Front of Shocked Hospital Workers (Graphic Photo)

AN ice addict in a hospital emergency department gouged out his own eyeballs and ate them, a Federal Liberal MP has revealed.

The horrific story was revealed yesterday at an Ice Summit on the Central Coast organised by the Express Advocate to address the epidemic in the region.

Dobell Federal Liberal MP Karen McNamara relayed the story as she opened the summit before a packed auditorium this morning.

“There is nothing at all recreational about this drug,” Ms McNamara said.
“Let me tell you a story that demonstrates this … about a young boy taken into an emergency department for treatment who gouged out his own eyeballs and ate them,” she said.
“We have to get these kinds of stories out to young people — this is not a recreational drug,” she said.

A spokeswoman for Ms McNamara later said the incident occurred at John Hunter Hospital at Newcastle and that she was in the room when the story was related to Ms McNamara by a frontline emergency services officer who wished to remain anonymous.

Jonathan did not starve EFCC of funds - EFCC

Press statement from the EFCC denying that GEJ starved the commission of funds...

The attention of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has been drawn to a report in The Sun newspaper of Tuesday, May 26, 2015, entitled, Jonathan Starved EFCC of Funds- Lamorde, in which the Executive Chairman of the Commission, Mr. Ibrahim Lamorde was quoted as indicting the out-going Jonathan administration of poor performance. 

The Commission takes exception to this report which is pure fabrication by the author for reason best known to him.

In the first place, Lamorde who is currently out of the country did not speak with the media and could not have made the comments attributed to him by The Sun newspapers.

The occasion that provided the basis for the false report by The Sun was a media briefing by Mr. Wilson Uwujaren, spokesperson of the EFCC, who addressed more than 40 journalists from over 30 media organizations at the Commission’s monthly media briefing in Abuja on May 25, 2015. At no time during the event did Uwujaren comment on the performance or lack of it, by the Jonathan administration let alone accusing it of poor performance or starving the Commission of funds.

He was only asked a question on the Commission’s view on the focus which the in-coming Buhari administration places on the fight against corruption, to which he responded that the Commission, like most Nigerians who are bothered about the problem of corruption, welcomes the focus which he believes will further empower the EFCC in the pursuit of its mandate of fighting economic crimes and corruption. It is a great disservice to society when journalists fabricates and twist issues to serve motives that are not altruistic.

Dettol, NMA, team up against sub-standard products

Leading Health and Hygiene brand Dettol, from the stables of RB Nigeria Limited reiterated its commitment to combat sub-standard products in Nigeria during the 55^th Annual Delegate Meeting and Annual General Conference 2015 of the Nigerian Medical Association (NMA)which held last week at Ibadan, Oyo State.

Over the years, Dettol, has   consistently partnered with government and statutory bodies within the health sector including NMA , Ministry of Health, NAFDAC and local governments  to educate consumers about the best hygiene practices and contribute to the health and wellbeing of  Nigerian families for the last 50 years.

Speaking at the NMA conference 2015 tagged ‘The Nigerian Health Sector: Current Trends, Burning Issues and what the future holds, Dettol’s keynote speaker and Member of Global Hygiene Council, Dr. Nneoma Idika pointed out that the influx of grey markets, fake, cheap and poor quality products formed some of the burning issues in the Health Sector.

“For improved healthcare delivery in Nigeria, proper coordination of these burning issues is expedient. Intervention strategies should include private public partnerships to combat the menace of sub-standard products. RB Nigeria limited via its number one health and hygiene brand, Dettol is championing this course through the Anti-Cheapie Campaign against suboptimal foods, drugs, antiseptics, cosmetics in Nigeria.” Dr. Nneoma stated

Providing the rationale behind Dettol's campaign against sub-standard products, Marketing Director, RB Nigeria Limited Mr. Oguzhan Silivrili stated ‘We are focused on educating Nigerian families about the need to embrace gold standard protection against germs. Every day in the market, we see newly introduced sub-standard, non-certified antiseptic and mainly imported products which does not deliver the optimum germ killing benefit to Nigerian families; as Dettol we are saying Nigerians should not take this type of risk with their loved ones”.

Commending RB Nigeria limited on the anti-cheapie initiative, Vice President 1, Nigerian Medical Association (NMA), Titus Ibekwe stated,  ‘ Dettol is doing a great job, it is important to emphasize on quality and not on costing because using sub-standard products become more costly on the long run’.

TF? Kris Jenner wants to trademark the name sometimes used to mock her, momager

These Kardashian/Jenner folks never cease to surprise me. Lol. According to new reports, Kris Jenner now wants to trademark a name used sometimes by the press to mock her. TMZ reports below...

Kris Jenner is so cunning she now wants a legal lock on the very name that has been sometimes used to disparage her ... momager!

We found out Kris has filed legal docs to trademark the name "momager" in the world of entertainment, which means anyone else who wants to use the description would need her permission, or else she could sue them.

It looks like she'll get what she's gunning for, because Kris has already locked down trademarks for the term "momager" for personal management services and for use in her reality show. Apparently, Kris doesn't like imitators like Dina Lohan and Tina Knowles. They've been warned.

APC denies Bukola Saraki's tweet, says they never zoned Senate Presidency to North Central

 It appears APC is having a silent battle over who becomes the next senate President. Two hours ago, Senator Bukola Saraki who is gunning for the seat of the Senate president, tweeted that the party had reaffirmed its position to zone the seat of the Senate Presidency to the North Central.
A few minutes ago, his claim was refuted by a statement released by the party's National Secretary Mai Mala Buni, which was shared on the Facebook wall of Kaduna governor-elect, Nasir El Rufai.
Recall that the National Leader of the party, Bola Tinubu had told press men last week that the party will not be zoning the position of the Senate Presidency and that they will not compromise merit during the process for the emergency of a Senate President. See Saraki's tweet and APC's statement after the cut...
