The nurse, Mrs Nkese Iroakazi who is suspected to have set ablaze her maid(Eno Bassey), of about 9 years of age; has finally been charged to court, for murder. This happened on Thursday, 29th August 2013, at the Yaba Magistrate Court, in Lagos.
The fire incident occurred at the nurse's residence in Surulere, Lagos, on Saturday 27th July, 2013, at about 03:30pm. It became public because the child fled into the street, enshrouded in flames, while letting off screaming hysterical screams. A quick-thinking motorist who saw this shocking sight, abandoned his vehicle and chased after her with his fire-extinguisher. The police was subsequently invited by incensed members of the public, some of whom attempted to mob the suspect. The nurse was arrested, and the child taken to the Burns and Trauma Centre, of the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital, located at the General Hospital, Gbagada, Lagos, where she died of her injuries, a week later.

THE Gwanda and Plumtree Town Councils have written off debts owed by residents as directed by Government.
Gwanda Town Council wrote off debts amounting to more than $3million while Plumtree was owed $1 million by the residents.In a notice issued yesterday, the Gwanda Town Council said it had written off residents' debts accumulated during the past four years as directed by the Government.

Gwanda residents owed the council about $3 millionand a total of 3 730 residential properties benefited from the cancellation of the bills.

However, Mr Mlilo advised the business community to settle their debts as they were not covered by the directive. "It should be noted that in terms of the circular referred to herein, corporates (business entities) are not beneficiaries of the write off arrangement and are therefore expected to pay their obligations in full.

Mr Mlilo said as of 30 June the business community owed the council about $1million.
