A farmer was at work in the afternoon on Thursday when he heard a baby crying.  He followed the sound to discover  a baby girl, who seemed to have been buried alive. She had managed to push her head above the ground.   The farmer, who is from Madhya Pradesh's Bodna village in India, rushed the child to a local hospital.  Doctors believe she was 48 hours old before she was rescued. She is now recovering well. Minister for Education Archana Chitnis has visited the child and ordered the hospital to monitor the baby carefully.  The police is trying to locate her parents.  But the baby is unlikely to be returned to them. Madhya Pradesh had the highest number of recorded cases of both female feticide and infanticide in 2009.

Although he is one of the biggest and most influential musicians in Africa, King Sunny has one regret, his l ack of University education. Pained by this short -coming, he has forbidden his daughters from getting married without acquiring a University degree. He bared his mind to Saturday Vanguard at the wedding of one his daughters’ Ruth, last Sunday in Ondo, Ondo State and advised would- be suitors to steer clear of his daughters who are yet to meet his expectations. Why did you decide to make your daughter wed in a low- key event? The request was hers. She told me that she just wanted to go to the registry and have a small reception. I had to start calling my friends and apologising that we are not having an elaborate wedding. Besides, I have other things to celebrate , like my 65th birthday and my mum’s one year remembrance. So, there was no need to invite the whole world to the wedding and call them again a few days later to come for my mum’s anniversary and my birthday. How mu

Have you always dreamt about going to America? Many Nigerians envision America as a land of gold and honey. A land where the government showers you daily with piles of cash, and a land where everything is free. Well, they are wrong. There is nothing of that sort in America, and recent studies and accounts have shown that it is actually   better   for you to stay in Nigeria than it is to go to America. Here are five reasons why. 1.   Debt : The mirage that anything and everything is possible in America is a lie. Worst of all, to new immigrants, the amount of credit offered in America is so attractive that by the time you know it, you will be chin deep in Debt.  Debt that will most likely take you the rest of your natural life, and half of your children's to pay off. 2.   Stress : America is the capital of stress. With 12 hour shifts and continuos work, the labour takes a heavy toll on its people, unlike in Nigeria. In Nigeria,   you are the boss . You decide when to

In a rather dramatic twist, cosmetologist and emerging artiste manager, Toni Payne, might have moved back into the expansive Abule-Egba, Lagos, home of estranged husband - afro hip hop singer, 9ice. Her unexpected return to the house she left in unwieldy circumstances late 2009 came as a shock to neighbours, aides, close friends and relatives of the singer who thought she had moved on for good. According to several impeccable sources, Payne’s startling about-face happened last Thursday when she came to the house demanding to see the father of her child but was prevented from entering. “She called 9ice several times but he didn’t pick the call because he had been told she was at the gate. He came with a male friend even. What angered 9ice was that she didn’t pre-inform him of her visit, source says. She left without blowing a fuse, only to return the following day. This time, Payne brought along with her the only product of the short-lived marriage, Zion, and she was allo

Mr Richard Taylor, father of 11 year old Damilola who was killed in Peckham, South London in 2000, has said that African children, mostly Nigerians, are continually being killed in London because they refuse to join gangs and deal in drugs. In an interview with the Daily Trust in London, Mr Taylor explained that the callous killings of black children are mostly carried out by teenage gangs who are into drugs and are jealous of the academic performance of Nigerian and other African children in the UK. He, however, lamented that the ugly situation may continue for some time because UK laws on capital crimes are seemingly “weak” as they tend to protect the accused rather than the victim. Mr Taylor opined that only when criminals are meted punishment commensurate with their crimes that the spate of teenage killings in London would abate, and advocated the reintroduction of capital punishment in the UK. “It is only when the right form of justice is meted out to perpetrators of crime –

MAIDUGURI -  Confusion has crept into the camp of the Islamic sect, Boko Haram which has unleashed a reign of terror in the northern part of the country for several months as the sect has split into two factions. One faction, the Yusufiyya Islamic Movement, YIM, has vowed to expose the other faceless group, which it described as evil group.   The Yusufiyya group is made up of followers of slain leader of the Islamic sect, Mallam Mohammed Yusuf.  This development came as President Goodluck Jonathan, yesterday, held  talks with elders from Borno State, over growing insecurity in the state, which is believed to be the abode of the sect.   The Yusufiyya Islamic Movement, in a two-page statement contained in leaflets yesterday, condemned the attacks and bombing of residences and places of worship by the other sect that claimed to be fighting a Jihad in the North. The leaflets were distributed on Tuesday to the various wards, Post Office Area and media houses in Maiduguri, Borno state

Uyo — In Akwa Ibom State a man may have to marry the corpse of his girlfriend, if the culture demands this. After several fruitless efforts to see the Eberefiak Oku Uyo (Clan head of Uyo and custodian of Ibibio culture) in his palace for comments on the matter, one of the Uyo chiefs met at the palace, Chief Effiong Udoh Akpan told Daily Trust "Such marriages are conducted between a boy friend that sees a girl that he likes, invites the girl to his house and decides to live with her in the house without initiating the process of traditional marriage up to the time the girl died while living with him. After fulfilling all the traditional marriage rites, the boy friend is then given the permission by her parents to go ahead and bury her. That is entirely a different procedure. "The corpse of the lady will be laid in state and the boy friend will come and lie down beside the corpse. He must lie down beside the corpse for a whole night because she is his wife. The boy friend wi
