A female member of the National Youth Service Corps scheme serving in Osun State, Ayomikun Ademorayo Juliana, on Sunday died after she reportedly washed her hair with Sniper, an insecticide, to eliminate lice.<br>
<br>
Ayomikun was serving with the Osun State House of Assembly, according to some reports on Facebook.<br>
<br>
Ayomikun, an orphan, discovered lice in her hair while preparing for a new hairdo to mark her birthday on July 18.<br>
<br>
The discovery greatly unsettled her so much that she was advised to apply sniper as an antidote. She reportedly took the sniper to her hairdresser, to apply on her hair.<br>

Elizabeth Ndubisi-Chukwu, deputy
director-general of Chartered Insurance Institute of Nigeria (CIIN), bid her
colleagues goodnight and went to bed after the closing dinner of the conference
of the African Insurance Organisation (AIO) in Johannesburg, South Africa, on
Wednesday, June 12.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
On Thursday morning when she was
scheduled to travel back to Nigeria, Ndubuisi-Chukwu neither showed up for
breakfast nor was she seen at the airport prior to departure. Her colleagues
were said to have rushed down to the Emperor Palace Hotel where they lodged- a
10-minute drive from the O.R. Tambo International Airport, Johannesburg. Her
phone rang but she didn’t answer the call. Hence, the door was forced open and
she was found dead.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
While Ndubuisi-Chukwu was
initially believed to have died in her sleep overnight, an autopsy report from
South Africa’s Department of Home Affairs revealed the unexpected. The death
certificate issued said the 53-year-old mother died of “unnatural causes
consistent with strangulation”.<o:p></o:p><br>

The family of Muyiwa Olushola is in mourning after the computer programmer allegedly committed suicide by taking a drink suspected to be laced with an insecticide, Sniper, at Mosadolorun in the Iba Local Council Development Area of Lagos State.<br>
<br>
It was gathered from neighbours that the deceased’s mother had gone for a vigil, leaving him at home with his father, Segun, and sister, Tosin, when he suddenly started screaming for help around midnight, but efforts to immediately gain access to his room proved abortive.<br>
<br>
Eventually, the door to the room was broken and upon entry, Muyiwa was seen lying unconsciously on the floor with a foamy substance coming out of his mouth.<br>
