The girl, whose name was reported to be Oyin is a 400l student of Electrical and Electronics Engineering. The incident happened very early Wednesday morning.

According to a student of the school who sent in the above photo, a cleaner heard a baby crying inside one of the toilet stalls and then saw blood coming from under the door. She quickly went to call other cleaners around and they forced the door open.


When the cleaners entered the toilet they saw the student pouring water inside the closet, the baby turned upside down, with the head inside the closet.

One of the women dipped her hand inside and removed the baby…a boy, who was still very much alive but bleeding from the nose. The cleaners called school management who rushed both the girl and the baby to Obafemi Awolowo University Teaching Hospital for treatment. The placenta fell while they were rushing the girl to the hospital.

What a wicked thing to do! Who knows the number of girls that have done such unspeakable acts like this and are walking freely on the streets like normal people!

Kim Kardashian names baby Kaidence Donda West



Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have reportedly named their daughter Kaidence Donda West.

The reality TV star gave birth to the couple’s first child on Saturday (15.06.13) in Los Angeles, California, and a loose-lipped nurse at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, the hospital where she had her baby, has allegedly revealed their new arrival’s name.

According to gossip website MediaTakeOut.com, Kim and Kanye have settled on calling their daughter Kaidence, which would follow the Kardashian family tradition of naming daughters with the letter ‘K’.

Meanwhile, the newborn’s middle name is a tribute to the ‘All of the Lights’ rapper’s late mother Donda West, who died in November 2007.

Kanye, 36, was incredibly close to his mother and even penned a tribute song about her, titled ‘Hey Mama’, for his 2005 album ‘Late Registration’.

Kim, 32, was due to give birth in mid-July but had her baby five weeks early after experiencing an early onset of labour pains on Friday evening (14.06.13).

The star’s sister Khloe Kardashian-Odom said both mother and baby are doing well.

She wrote on Twitter: “I can not even begin 2 describe the miracle that is now apart of our family. Mommy/baby are healthy & resting. We appreciate all of the love.

“More info will come when the time is right! Thank you all for understanding! We love you all dearly! Overwhelmed with love right now.

Women who regularly use talcum powder to keep fresh increase their risk of ovarian cancer by 24%

Women who regularly use talcum powder to keep fresh increase their risk of ovarian cancer by almost a quarter, according to new research.
Scientists warned powder particles applied to the genital area can travel into a woman's body and trigger inflammation, which allows cancer cells to flourish.
Around 40 per cent of women are thought to regularly use talcum powder for personal hygiene.

Several previous studies have investigated the link between the powder and tumours.
Some have detected links with ovarian and womb cancer but others have proved inconclusive.
In the latest probe, doctors at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, U.S., pooled data from eight separate studies to try and come up with a definitive answer.
 
This kind of research, known as a meta-analysis, is designed to produce stronger findings than smaller, individual studies.
The researchers analysed data from 8,525 women diagnosed with ovarian cancer and compared talcum powder use with that of 9,800 women who remained cancer-free.
The results, published in the journal Cancer Prevention Research, showed regularly applying the powder particles after bathing or showering raised the risk of an ovarian tumour by 24 per cent.

More than 6,000 women a year in the UK are diagnosed with cancer of the ovaries.
The disease accounts for about five per cent of cancer deaths in women. It's sometimes known as a 'silent killer' because for many victims symptoms only appear once it is already fairly advanced.
The main risk factors include a family history of the disease, having already had breast cancer and starting periods at a young age.
Researchers stressed the results only apply to talcum powder used in the genital area and not the rest of the body.
Some studies suggest the risks are greatest in the estimated one in ten Caucasian women with a certain genetic profile.
Women carrying a gene called glutathione S-transferase M1, or GSTM1, but lacking a gene called glutathione S-transferase T1 (GSTT1), are nearly three times as likely to develop ovarian tumours.
Talcum powder is made from a soft mineral called hydrous magnesium silicate that is found throughout the world.
It is crushed, dried and milled to produce powder used in cosmetic products by millions of people.
Some experts say it shares chemical similarities to asbestos, which can cause a deadly form of lung cancer called mesothelioma.
Tiny particles have been found to travel up through the genital tract and been found deep inside the pelvis.
They can also last inside the body for years. It is estimated that one particle of talc in the lungs, for example, would take eight years to dissolve.
