English version of the South African man who was raped


This is the English version of the man who was raped by two/three women in South Africa. Found the story www.iol.co.za. Read below...
A Hluhluwe man has said he will not be able to forgive the three women who raped him. A video of the incident appeared on social media and has since gone viral. The man, whose name is known to the Daily News, said he was at home when a woman whom he knows called him over, saying she needed help with an electrical problem at her home.
“I went into her house and when I got there, I saw another girl in the room. I did not pay any attention to her. Then another girl who was hiding behind the door closed it, that’s when I realised that something was wrong.”

He said after they closed the door behind him, they told him they wanted to sleep with him.
“I initially thought they were joking,” he said. However, he soon realised they were serious when he was attacked. He said he tried to defend himself but his arm was weak since he had injured it in an accident years ago.
He said he was let go and he went home and took a shower. He said the incident had left him feeling confused.

“I told my older sister about what happened but she thought I was joking.”
It was only after a video appeared online that she took what he said seriously and encouraged him to go to the police. He said he feared going to the police because he thought they would not take him seriously.

“When I told them what happened they were shocked. The three women were arrested the same day I reported the matter.”
The alleged rapists were people he knew and grew up with in the area, he said.
“I’m very angry,” he said of the assault. One of the families of the alleged rapists went to the man’s home to try to make amends, he said.
“My brothers and sisters were not having any of it,” he said. He was looking forward to the trial and wanted the women to be severely punished. “People like that should not be part of society.”
What made it more difficult to move on was that the video was on social media and people had come to ask him what happened.

“It is something I never thought would happen to me. There is not much I can do but try to move on.”
According to Reese Mann, executive director of the South African Male Survivors of Sexual Abuse (Samssa), one out of six males before the age of 18 were sexually abused.
Mann said 19.3% of all sexual violations reported to police involved male victims.

“Male victims of sexual abuse are less likely than their female counterparts to report incidents of sexual abuse, because police and the judiciary don’t take it seriously,” Mann said.
Mann said a widely held myth was that if males got an erection and/or, ejaculated during the sexual abuse, they must have enjoyed it.

“A man being raped can still get an erection because it is in the physiological make-up of males that if they are caressed long enough they end up getting an erection,” said Mann.
He said there was also the myth that men should be capable of protecting themselves against sexual abuse.

“There are three stages that any victim of sexual abuse goes through, and they are called the three Fs.
“They can fight back, they can flee or they are just overcome by fear and the force exerted by the perpetrator, in which case they just freeze,” said Mann.

Police spokesman, Lieutenant-Colonel Thulani Zwane, confirmed the incident and said the women had appeared in the Hluhluwe Magistrate’s Court last Thursday and were expected to appear again on Tuesday for a bail application.

He said they were being held in custody.

'Choosing you was the best decision of my life' - IK Osakioduwa says to his wife as they celebrate 8th wedding anniversary


The multimedia personality and his wife, Olohi, are celebrating their 8th wedding anniversary today October 3rd. IK took to his IG page to shower his wife with kind words. He wrote;
"Choosing you was logic and not just a thing of the heart. You could relate with all of me, and not just a section or part. It was a no brainer once I thought it through.There could be no one else but you. Choosing you was easy


Through baggy shirts and oversized jackets
Through cheap gifts in lousy packets
You saw what other girls couldn't see
You saw inside. You saw me
Choosing you was easy

Whether I was fun, serious, spiritual or crazy
You appreciated my difference, instead of trying to change me
Your combination of beauty and brains was just unique
I knew my dating days had reached their Peak
Choosing you was easy

You've made a better wife, than a girlfriend or fiancé
And you were good at those, but you've improved each day.
I can't help but look forward to the rest of this life
Married to the quintessential "Entertainer's wife"
Choosing you was the best decision of my life". 

Extend your probe to IBB, OBJ, Abdulsalami, others administration- Sen Shehu Sani says


Senator Shehu Sani has advised President Buhari to probe past administrations of former leaders such Olusegun Obasanjo, Ibrahim Babangida, Abdulsalami Abubakar, Shehu Shagari and also his own administration when he was a military leader. Sani said this during an interview with newsmen in Abuja on Friday last week.


“If the government says the money recovered under Goodluck Jonathan is not enough to service the economy, then we should move to Yar’Adua and Obasanjo administrations too; move to Abdulsalami, Abacha, Babangida and Buhari himself as a military ruler then and to Shehu Shagari of the Second Republic. We must go after the old thieves irrespective of the political parties they belong to now, as the government is going after the most recent ones”he said

Photos: Kim K leaves Paris after robbery where she begged for her life as she was bound and gagged


Kim Kardashian has left Paris on a private jet hours after she tied up and robbed of $10 million in jewelry by armed masked men dressed as police, who broke into her hotel room. (A photo of her above as she left the hotel after the robbery) Read the report from People magazine below...
"Five men in ski masks and police jackets were involved in the robbery about 3 a.m. local time Monday, Reuters reports.

Two men entered her room at No Address Hotel (pictured above), bound Kardashian's hands and feet with tape then locked her in the bathroom before stealing a jewelry box worth $6.7 million in jewelry and a ring worth $4 million, police sources told La Parisien.

Her purse, two cell phones and 1,000 euros were also taken, police sources tell BFM TV.

Kardashian was gagged and bound at her hands and feet, then handcuffed and held at gunpoint, according to E! News. After the men left with "all her jewelry," Kardashian "broke out of her bindings and got out."

"She begged for them to let her live and [said] she has babies at home. Then they wrapped her mouth in tape and put her in the bathtub," a source told E!. "She thought they were for sure going to kill her."

The men were able to gain access to Kardashian's private apartment after five men threatened the apartment building's concierge with a weapon, handcuffed him and forced him to open the private apartment, says The French Interior Ministry, according to CNN. Two of the men were able to gain entry and a gun was held to her head, according to the Paris prosecutor's office.

 Sources tell PEOPLE that Kardashian left her hotel in two vans with a police escort after she gave her statement to investigators.

The convoy blew through red lights in Paris en route to the airport, where a private jet was waiting to take Kardashian back to the U.S.

"She is badly shaken but physically unharmed," her rep tells PEOPLE.

Kardashian has been on a high-profile tour of Paris Fashion Week all week and was joined by husband Kanye West until Wednesday. She was also joined by mom Kris Jenner and sisters Kourtney Kardashian and Kendall Jenner.

 By 2:30 a.m. Paris time, just minutes before the robbery, she was back at her hotel room and Facetiming with brother Rob Kardashian and his fiancĂ©e Blac Chyna to wish them congratulations at their baby shower, according to her Snapchat. (Kim pictured FaceTiming with Rob and Chyna about 2:30 a.m. Monday – minutes before she was robbed)
