EDO STATE INEC OFFICE FLOODED AFTER HEAVY RAINFALL
INDEPENDENT NATIONAL ELECTORAL COMMISSION
PRESS RELEASE
FLOODING OF OUR EDO STATE HEADQUARTERS IN BENIN CITY

Our Resident Electoral Commissioner for Edo State, Dr. Anugbum Onuoha, has reported that our State Headquaters in Benin City was completely flooded following a torrential rainfall yesterday Friday 24th May 2024.
Preliminary assessment shows that the heavy downpour damaged a section of the building. Movable and immovable items were submerged, including vehicles parked at the premises as well as office furniture and equipment.
Some of the voter enrollment machines already configured for the forthcoming Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) are affected. However, the Commission is delivering additional machines from the neighbouring States to make up for the shortfall. We are determined to ensure that the CVR in all the 192 Wards across Edo State will proceed on Monday 27th May 2024 as scheduled.
However, in view of the emergency situation, the State Headquarters will not serve as a registration centre as planned. Instead, the exercise will now take place in our Ikpoba Okha LGA office located at 16 Customs Road, off Benin/Auchi Road, Benin City.
Meanwhile, the attention of the security agencies and emergency services has been drawn to the incident.

“Ned Nwoko Paid Us N5 Million Each To Kill Regina Daniels” – Man Claims As Video Goes Viral (Watch)
A young man has sparked widespread reactions on social media after claiming that Senator Ned Nwoko offered him and others N5 million each to kill his estranged wife, actress Regina Daniels.
Ned Nwoko, a Nigerian billionaire and politician, has been embroiled in a highly publicised marital crisis with Regina Daniels, with rumours of separation dominating the headlines in recent months.
Although the couple appears to have moved on separately, the recent allegation has reignited public attention on their turbulent relationship.
In a viral video on X (formerly Twitter), the young man, who partially concealed his face, alleged that the Senator instructed them to carry out the killing, providing Daniels’ location and schedule. He claimed they refused the assignment, citing the high risk involved.
He stated in the video: “Ned Nwoko told us to go and kill Regina Daniels, gave us her location and the time she was going to move, but we refused to do it, because… I cannot do it.”
The man further alleged that even appearing in the video put his life in danger. He added that the Senator had paid them N5 million each and warned Regina Daniels to be cautious during the current ember months.
The revelation has generated mixed reactions across social media, with many Nigerians expressing shock, concern, and disbelief over the claim.

“Mistakes Happen” – Woman Begs Husband After DNA Test Reveals He Isn’t The Father Of Her 3 Children (Video)
A shocking family drama unfolded when a man discovered that the three children he had raised for six years were not biologically his.
The truth came to light just weeks before Thanksgiving, leaving the man devastated and struggling to process the betrayal.
In a post shared by @amebogist on Instagram, it was reported that he asked the woman and her children to leave while he processed the revelation.
But his family, believing the children shouldn’t be punished for their mother’s actions, invited them to the holiday gathering without consulting him.
When the woman and her children arrived, the man became visibly upset, witnesses say he rushed to the front door, blocking their entry, and told his family he wasn’t ready to see them so soon after learning the truth.
The woman reportedly pleaded with him, saying, “Mistake happens,” asking for forgiveness and understanding.
Despite her pleas, the man stood firm, and she eventually left with the children to avoid making the situation worse.
The incident has sparked heated debate online. Some defended the man, arguing he had every right to protect his emotional well-being. Others said the children shouldn’t suffer for their mother’s betrayal.

“Ikurav-ya President held an investigation on the controversial underaged Marriage Saga today. According to them, here are the facts discovered: The said girl was born in 2006 (19yrs). The girl passed out from secondary school last year.
“Both parents of the couple are fully in support. My personal facts gathered, the girl is 15yrs and without parents. She’s staying with the aunty who couldn’t fund her education no more. She’s heavily pregnant.
“She got pregnant before her SSCE paper. At least my noise made them to investigate. The girl is pregnant already while date for marriage is 18th December. Before you support such marriage, wait when you give birth to a girl child then give her to a man at age 15 to marry.
