Rape is popular, and no matter how hard we work to prevent it, it is still happening, and most time when people are raped they have no idea what they should do. No one prays or prepares for it. Rape could damage one’s life even without them know about it. Since it is still happening and there is no way to put a complete stop to it, all we can do is talk about how to prevent it and how to react if ever happens to you.
The truth is that there are no specific set of rules or an outline of actions to take if it happens, there are no definite ways to react, and it is different for everyone. You need to find what works for you. These are 3 things you should do if you are raped.

Go To The Hospital For Check Up

Rape could do a lot of terrible things to you, from injuries to infections to being pregnant, if ever someone gets raped, one thing they should quickly do is go to the hospital for checkup and to make sure everything is well, she may need drugs too to help with the pain depending on how bad it was and most of all she needs a doctor’s report as a proof of the rape.

Report To The Authorities

One thing that can help a rape victim heal, is knowing that the person responsible is in prison. According to the Nigerian constitution, rape offense gets one life imprisonment attempted rape gets one over 7 years. If you have gone to the hospital and you have the report with DNA samples, all you need to do is present it to the court, they will test the samples against him and he will go to prison. If you don’t go to the hospital or you wash up before going there, you would lose all the evidence. It’s hard, but immediately after it happens is the best time.

 Talk to Someone About it

Rape brings some very high levels of emotional trauma and psychological issues too. A person who was raped may never be able to recover from it, they may never be able to trust again or have meaningful relationships. They could even go as far as suicide, this is why if you get raped it’s always best to see a professional who would help you through the process.
Even if you can’t see one for any reason, you should at least tell people about it, let them know and be there to support you through all of it.
Rape is never your fault, it is never because of anything you did or didn’t do and we never pray that anyone gets raped, but then this is just something to know, just in case.

Quincy Jones, a legendary music producer renowned for his collaborations with iconic artists, passed away on November 4, 2024, at the age of 91.

His publicist, Arnold Robinson, confirmed the news. Jones’ family released a heartfelt statement, expressing their grief and celebrating his extraordinary life and enduring legacy.

They said,

“Tonight, with full but broken hearts, we must share the news of our father and brother Quincy Jones’ passing. And although this is an incredible loss for our family, we celebrate the great life that he lived and know there will never be another like him.”

They added, “We take comfort and immense pride in knowing that the love and joy, that were the essence of his being, was shared with the world through all that he created. Through his music and his boundless love, Quincy Jones’s heart will beat for eternity.”

Born in Chicago in 1933, Quincy Jones’s lineage was a complex tapestry of history. His mother descended from slave owners, while his father, half-white, was the son of a Welsh slave master and one of his enslaved women.

Jones’s early exposure to music began at home, where his mother’s singing and a neighbour’s piano ignited his passion. At the tender age of seven, he started learning to play the piano.

Following his parents’ divorce, Jones and his father moved to Washington State. There, he joined his high school band, mastering the drums and various brass instruments.

His musical journey took a significant turn at the age of 14 when he began performing in Seattle bars. A remarkable moment arrived in 1948 when he backed Billie Holiday, sharing the stage with a young Ray Charles.

After a brief stint at Seattle University studying music, Jones ventured to Boston to complete his education. His illustrious career, spanning over seven decades, was marked by groundbreaking collaborations with legendary artists.

He worked alongside Michael Jackson, Frank Sinatra, Ray Charles, and many others. Indeed, one of his most iconic achievements was producing Michael Jackson’s historic album, “Thriller.”

Mohbad: Naira Marley & Sam Larry to face subpoena | fab.ng

A Coroner’s Court in Ikorodu, Lagos State, has issued a stern warning to key witnesses. These key witnesses have repeatedly failed to attend the ongoing inquest into the tragic death of popular singer, Ilerioluwa Aloba, better known by his stage name, Mohbad.

Magistrate T. A. Sotobi made a decision. He granted permission to Joseph Aloba, Mohbad’s father. Aloba can now serve a witness summons through the use of a national newspaper and social media platforms.

Several individuals have been summoned to testify. These include Azeez Fashola, known as Naira Marley. Samson Eletu, also called Sam Larry, is on the list. Karimot Ogunbayo, Mohbad’s sister-in-law, must appear. Oluwasanmi Falade, the late singer’s lawyer, is also summoned.

The court also wants to hear from Feyisayo Ogedengbe. She’s the nurse who treated Mohbad on his final day. Fidelis Esanbor, Mohbad’s driver, rounds out the list of summoned witnesses.

On Wednesday, Taiwo Odumosu, the legal representative of the Aloba family, informed reporters that only Mohbad’s associate, Boluwatife Adeyemo (aka Darosha), was present among the key witnesses. Odumosu expressed disappointment at the absence of the other individuals. He revealed that the magistrate is considering issuing subpoenas if they continue to evade the next hearing, set for September 30.

The family of Mohbad has voiced their deep frustration with the police investigation into his death.

In a statement signed by Emmanuel Oroko of Hilceetee Partner, Odumosu criticized the police for relying solely on witness accounts instead of conducting a thorough investigation.

Odumosu addressed Darosha’s involvement. He clarified the situation regarding Mohbad’s embalmment. The lawyer stated that no charges have been filed against Darosha. The family’s legal team remains vigilant in monitoring the case closely. The lawyers have set a clear goal. They aim to secure justice for Mohbad.

“We petitioned the Inspector General of Police and the Police Service Commission (PSC) to remove the officers handling the case due to their mishandling of the investigation,” he said.

Odumosu took action and called on the Police Service Commission (PSC). He targeted specific officers who had initially handled Mohbad’s death investigation. Odumosu demanded scrutiny of their work. He accused these officers of gross negligence, claiming that they failed to carry out their duties diligently and thoroughly.

Mohbad tragically passed away at the young age of 27 on September 12, 2023. The circumstances surrounding his death have sparked widespread speculation and intense debate on social media platforms.
