Police arrest man who kills a pregnant woman to use her for rituals

Akwa Ibom State Police Command has
arrested a 28-year old man, Edet Asuquo, from
Ikot Otu in the Itu Local Government Area for
allegedly murdering a pregnant woman.
The deceased, who came from Cross River State and
whose identity is unknown, was said to be a
customer to Asuquo who deals in oysters.
The state Police Public Relations Officer, Cordelia
Nwawe, said on Wednesday that the suspect,
having sold the first part of his seafood to the
pregnant woman, lured her to his home claiming
that he had abundance of oysters at a cheaper rate.
According to her, on Monday, January 11, the
woman had innocently followed Asuquo to his
home, where she was killed and her corpse hidden
near a plantain tree on the premises.
The police said the suspect and four others at large
wanted to remove the foetus from the woman’s
wombs at night.
She said, “The suspect and those at large were
contracted by a village leader for N50,000, to kill a
pregnant woman and remove the woman’s head
and the foetus for ritual pur

pose.
“Luck, however, ran out on them as Asuquo’s
sister reported the matter to their elder brother,
who invited the police.
“The pregnant mother had gone to the market to
buy oysters from Asuquo. The man lured her to
his house to buy more oysters. The unsuspecting
pregnant woman was murdered there.”
Asuquo, confessed to the crime, saying a leader in
his village gave a job to him and his friends to kill
a pregnant woman for N250,000 so that he could
use the foetus for sacrifice.
He said, “We are five that were asked to kill a
pregnant woman so that her head and her unborn
child would be removed and used for ritual
purpose.
“He told us that after we have carried out the job,
he will give each one of us N50,000. He did not
give us any advance payment. After we had done
the job, my sister reported the matter to my elder
brother, who in turn called the police.”

Twitter planning to expand tweets from 140 characters to 10,000 characters

Twitter's most beloved features is set to change. The company is planning to extend its 140-character limit to as many as 10,000, according to a person familiar with the matter. Twitter’s fans were quick to complain that such a change, expected to be announced by the end of March, would spoil the brevity and speed of the real-time service.
The character limit that forces users to pen snappy tweets could give way to the longer essays found on Facebook. It could transform Twitter into more of a public blogging platform rather than one that is succinct and well-suited to quips and breaking news headlines.

This person said, however, that Twitter Inc. is aiming to retain the look and feel of the user timeline. For tweets that are longer than 140 characters, users will have to click and expand to see the rest of the text. As users write beyond the 140-character limit, Twitter will signal to them that they have crossed the threshold as a way to encourage brevity.

In a tweet on Tuesday after the news spilled out, co-founder and CEO Jack Dorsey tweeted a screenshot of text, 1,317 characters with spaces, explaining his thinking behind the expansion. “We’ve spent a lot of time observing what people are doing on Twitter, and we see them taking screenshots of text and tweeting it,” Mr. Dorsey wrote. “Instead, what if that text…was actually text? Text that could be searched.  Text that could be highlighted. That’s more utility and power.” Despite the change, Mr. Dorsey said Twitter will “never lose that feeling” of speed, creativity and brevity.

"Despite the lamentations that the change will alter the spirit of Twitter, the truth is that users have been clawing for a longer character limit for some time. Loyal users often create so-called tweetstorms where they string a series of tweets together by replying to them in numerical succession. Users have also gone around the character restriction by attaching screenshots of longer text to their tweets.

In July 2015, Twitter expanded the 140-character limit on private messages to 10,000.

Twitter has been doing a bit of soul-searching to jump-start user growth ever since the return of Mr. Dorsey as CEO in July. The debate to increase the character limit has been in the works since as early as September.
