A River with 'healing powers'
(according to the people of the community) mysteriously appeared in a
community in Enugu State called Nachi, in Udi LGA. The river, now called
Orimiri Jordan (River Jordan) was first seen on Nov. 11th.
According to reports, a Fulani Herdsmen first spotted the river and ran
to people in the community to alert them of the discovery. He told them
that as he passed the area with his herd of cattle, he heard a strange
noise, and when he turned back, he saw the river that wasn't there
previously.
The community went to look for themselves and discovered that the water
has healing powers. But the traditional ruler of Nachi
community said something slightly different. He said the river appears
every 20 to 30 years but dries up after a few weeks so it wasn't
anything new.
An elder in the community explained:
“We noticed that after some years, the water will form a stream
there and would disappear in few weeks. If such happens, we will be
fetching water there. However, women who are menstruating and evil
people don’t go there. We never heard about healing power of the River
until this recent appearance of the River.
“The last time it
appeared was in 1992, and at that time, it just formed a small stream,
which later disappeared. It has never been as large as this. This is all
I know, we have never known about its healing power, this is the first
time we are hearing about healing, I don’t whether it is true”.

Meanwhile, Okada people are already making money from this as they
charge passengers between N500 to N1,000 to transport them from a
junction to the Healing River as hundreds visit the place every day to
get some of the water which quite a lot of people testify has healing
powers.
Chris Brown surrendered his phone and the Internet while in rehab for anger management, TMZ has learned -- but he didn't give up his weed without a fight.
When Chris enrolled in his court-ordered rehab joint after last week's progress hearing in the Rihanna beating case ... he asked the rehab staff if he could bring his weed along.
Chris
told staff the Mary Jane was prescribed by a doctor for a medical
condition -- depression -- but the staff rejected his request. We're
told Chris kicked up a stink, claiming pot makes him calm, but the staff
was unbending.
As we reported, the judge in the case ordered Brown to enroll in a live-in anger management facility for 90 days following his previous stint in anger rehab, when he was booted after just two weeks ... ironically because he flew into a violent rage.
Hopefully the no-weed rule won't exacerbate Chris's anger problems. They won't like him when he's angry
Kanye
West is a man truly and crazily in love. In a radio interview with
Angie Martinez yesterday, Kanye said he isn't worried about how his
relationship with Kim K is affecting his career, saying she's so
beautiful
it doesn't matter if she is uncool.
'I
don't give a f*** what type of jacket she got on. Ladies and gentlemen y'all acting like this ain't the most beautiful
woman of all time! Arguably of human existence. The top ten of human existence.'
Kanye also said dating Kim has taught him that life was about more than 'whats cool or not cool'.
'I felt like our love story is a love
story for the ages. I felt like when we first got together it's a Romeo
And Juliet kind of thing. Like she's a reality star and I'm a rapper and
people talking about how our brands connect and it doesn't fit. And I'm
just so tired of brands... It's not about branding
at a certain point. I loved her from the first day I saw her which I
said on Bound.'
He then admitted he allowed the Keeping Up With Kardashian cameras to capture his elaborate marriage proposal to Kim last month.
'When we got engaged I made sure the
show was there because I felt like that would make her happy. Regardless
of how it was shot I felt like this was a moment she would want to
have.'
