Ibadan, the Oyo State capital was on Tuesday turned into a Mecca of
sorts as news filtered into town of a fish which suddenly turned into a
miniature mermaid but the state police command has dispelled the story
as untrue.
It was reported that a middle-aged woman, identified as Ramota Salau,
who sells both roasted and fried fish, had taken delivery of her stock
of frozen fishes from the Gege area of town and was sorting them out
when she suddenly raised the alarm that one of the fishes suddenly
turned into what was called an ‘Omo Yemoja’ or mermaid.

Investigators are trying to determine what caused a train in northern Spain to jump the tracks, killing 77 people and injuring more than 140.
The derailment Wednesday near a station outside the ancient city of Santiago de Compostela is Spain's deadliest train crash since 1972 when a train collided with a bus in southern Spain, killing 80 people.
Emergency workers worked through the night to rescue survivors. Television footage showed smoke rising from the wreckage and bodies covered by blankets alongside the tracks next to the twisted metal of the train's eight cars.
Rescue teams used cranes Thursday to move the carriages from the scene of the derailment.

Nuclear: Dr Conrad Murray
Dr Conrad Murray suggests he has been harbouring bombshell information regarding the singer’s true relationship with his family
Michael Jackson’s doctor has threatened to divulge a “nuclear” secret if he is forced to testify in a £100million damages case.
Dr Conrad Murray suggests he has been harbouring bombshell information regarding the singer’s true relationship with his family, who are suing promoters AEG Live.
The medic, serving four years for Jacko’s involuntary manslaughter, said in a chilling message via a friend: “Please stop. If you don’t, let this serve as my final warning to both sides.
“Don’t incite me to testify. Consider this as an imminent nuclear warning.”

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, William and Kate have revealed their new born son's name.
Kensington Palace said in a short statement yesterdays evening:
'The Duke and Duchess of
Cambridge are delighted to announce that they have named their son
George Alexander Louis. The
baby will be known as His Royal Highness Prince George of Cambridge.
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have announced their newborn son is
to be called George Alexander Louis. He will be known as His Royal
Highness Prince George of Cambridge.
The announcement at 6.20pm
showed the couple have chosen to stick with very traditional royal
names. There have already been six British monarchs called George – the
last being the Queen's father, George VI. Louis is also a favourite and
was the name of Lord Mountbatten, the uncle of the Duke of Edinburgh.
The
announcement comes a day after the duchess left hospital and two days
after she gave birth, and hours after the Queen met her great-grandson
for the first time.
George was the most popular name with betting
firms William Hill, Coral and Paddy Power. James was also a favourite
with punters, with Alexander, Henry, Louis, Richard and Arthur the next
most popular choices.
