So Sad! Moving Train Cuts University Graduate Into Two in Lagos (Graphic Photos)


In yet another sad incident in one of Nigeria's most populous city of Lagos, a University graduate has been cut into two by a moving train. Such a painful way to die.
Ibrahim
 
A deaf and dumb University graduate identified as Ibrahim, has been crushed to death in Lagos around 2pm on Tuesday. He was reportedly walking along the track when a train that just took off from the Iddo station crushed him to death at the Oyingbo area of Lagos State. 
 
According to residents who are eye witness, all efforts to save him were abortive as he did not respond to alerts until it was too late.  His body was cut into two. The train was said to have hit him, as residents watched in horror.
 
 
A witness said: "Ibrahim was a graduate of a university in Ibadan, Oyo State. He came to Lagos to work. He was deaf and dumb. Around 2pm, after observing the Islamic prayer, we saw him walking beside the track; then he entered the main track.

When we saw the train hooting and he continued walking, we became alarmed. Some people threw water on him, while others even threw stone at him. But he did not pay attention. He merely shook them off and readjusted his cap."

No Way! What Man Found in His House Behind His Faulty Plug Socket Will Shock You (Photos)



A man detected a problem with his plug sockets in his house and after searching he got the shock of his life when he saw what the problem was.
 
The man found a huge snake inside the wall
 
A man was shocked to find that the reason for his faulty electrics and smoking plug sockets was actually a huge python. 
 
Fortunately the slithering squatter was caught before potentially setting the house on fire completely.
 
Mirror Online reports that the lucky homeowners in Maroochy River, Queensland, Australia, only noticed the sneaky snake when smoke started to waft out from behind the plug socket.
 
Immediately they called Richie Gilbert from Sunshine Coast Snake Catchers 24/7, who battled to remove the scared reptile.
 
He said: "It took me around an hour to remove the snake. Understandably it was really scared and had curled up quite tight.

"I had to make two holes in the wall as the python wouldn't move just out of one. I had to use a bandage to help lure him out."
 
Rescue: The snake was saved by reptile catcher Richie Gilbert
 
Before the carpet python was even halfway out, Richie had spotted a deep electrical burn on its scaly skin.
 
Because of its tight proximity to the house's wiring, the snake had been shocked on and off causing the wound to appear.
 
Once he had safely pulled the animal out, Richie took it straight to the Australia Zoo for the injury to be treated.
 
He added: "Originally I thought the snake was going to need to be euthanized. The burn was big and deep and it seemed to have muscle damage also.
"It has been getting treatment and is currently doing very well."
 
 
Carpet pythons are not venomous but they still bite, as Richie found when the clearly still scared python sunk its teeth into his hand.
 
They can grow to three metres long and can and will eat household pets and Richie believes this particular one had been surviving off mice in the roof and cavity for a while.
 
He said: "Statistics say one in three homes in south east Queensland has a snake living in its roof. Fortunately the owner's quick thinking helped save a potentially massive issue.

"If the snake had continued to recurve it could easily have triggered an electrical surge."
