13 children and driver die as?bus collides with train in India
  Indian Police confirms that 13 children were killed after their school van collided with a train at an unmanned railway crossing in the northern part of the country this morning.

Area police officer, Ramkrishna Tiwari, said the driver of the bus was also killed in the crash, which took place near the town of Kushinagar in Uttar Pradesh state. “The bus was on its way to school, when it met with the accident. Most of the victims died on the spot,” Tiwari said.

He said the dead children were all under the age of 10. Six more children who were injured in the accident were rushed to a nearby hospital. The death toll could rise as the condition of some of the children was said to be critical.  Police blamed the driver for the accident.

“The accident occurred due to his negligent driving. He was listening to music on his headphones and did not stop the bus to check for the approaching train,” Tiwari said.  State authorities have ordered an investigation while Indian leaders offered their condolences to the families of the victims.

It was the second deadly incident involving a school bus this month. Twenty-seven people, including 23 children, died on April 9 when a school bus fell into a gorge in the northern state of Himachal Pradesh.

EKITI: APC youths allege neglect by Buhari over appointment

Ekiti All Progressives Congress Youth Congress (EAYC) has frowned at President Muhammadu Buhari’s reported appointment of one Olasoji Akodu from the state as the coordinator of his social media team. A report in the social media space had claimed that Akodu had been given the job of the coordinator of the Buhari Media Centre. But the youths in a press release issued in Ado-Ekiti on Saturday, described Buhari’s choice as a stranger in the APC in Ekiti State and wondered how those in charge of Buhari Media Centre would do such a thing without contacting the publicity secretary of the party in the state. In the statement signed jointly by Mr. Tope Ogunkuade and Comrade Tunji Adeleye, EAYC convener and secretary respectively, they said the development was “an affront on youths in the party to be neglected for someone like Akodu, who is a federal civil servant and his wife a civil servant in Ekiti State.”

Tunde Ednut shares pic of Bobrisky being bundled out of his house in handcuffs by the Police

Singer, Tunde Ednut - who isn't a fan of anything related to Nigerian cross-dresser Bobrisky, shared the photo via IG and wrote; "3 WEEKS AGO WHEN BOBRISKY WAS ARRESTED. - This was how he was handcuffed and bundled out his “rented” personal house. Jacob locked the gate from outside, they had no choice but to bundle him over the fence. He was not allowed to carry his SNAPCHAT FILTER over the fence.
