Black axe cult now global canadian police investigate rapid spread of black axe group
Very interesting report from Global and Mail examining how the Black axe cult seems to be spreading in Canada . Very lengthy but interesting. Read below: Canadian police say they are fighting a new kind of criminal organization. The signs began to appear two years ago: photos on Facebook of men wearing odd, matching outfits. Then there were stories, even old police files, attached to the people in the photos: a kidnapping, a man run over by a car, brutal beatings over what seemed to be a small slight. Mapping a secret criminal hierarchy for the first time is a rare kind of detective work. So when two Toronto police officers and an RCMP analyst in British Columbia started documenting the existence of something called the “Black Axe, Canada Zone,” they could not have predicted it would take them to funerals, suburban barbecue joints and deep into African history before they understood what they were seeing. The Black Axe is feared in Nigeria, where it originated.

Truth Be Told, Buhari Has Done Nothing Since He Got Into Office- Etcetera
Can someone please tell me what exactly is happening in Nigeria? Sincerely, what is really happening? Sentiments aside, what has Buhari done since taking overASO Rock? The Boko Haram sect is still bombing, fuel scarcity is still on, the dollar is still over N200, fuel subsidy is still draining the treasury, insecurity has got to a new level, the roads are at a deplorable state nationwide, and some people are suggesting we should still give the president more time, that he will deliver soon. How long will this delivery take? Because it is already looking like the president might need a C-section to deliver. The signs are clear for all to see that Buhari has started feeling the pangs of labour. Nobody should ask us to give Buhari time to settle down to work. Buhari is an employee and he has to do the job he’s getting paid for. No firm accords its employees the luxury of settling down to the job. Why must it be a different case with Nigeria? Is President Buhari not getting paid already? So why does he need time to do a job he’s already getting paid for?

The scavengers came with shovels, pans, basins and buckets to cart their loot home.Last Friday, operatives of the Nigerian customs dug out a canal there and buried thousands of cartons of frozen poultry they seized at the Onne Ports. Witnesses said the chicken were brought in six containers, emptied and buried before the customs party left.

Hmmm: Human DNA Found In Hot Dogs, Study Reveals
Consumption of processed meat might be making a handful of unsuspecting persons cannibalistic if the outcome of a recent study should be taken seriously.
The study which was conducted on both meat and vegetarian hot dogs revealed that they contain unadvertised ingredients with traces of the ‘human DNA’. Ewwww.
A food analytics company, Clear Food Labs, disclosed that 10% of vegetarian hot dog products contain meat.
Clear Food Labs further found human DNA in 2% of its hot dog samples, and in two-thirds of the vegetarian samples.
