Headline: Shock As Snake Found Under Ambulance Carrying Ifunanya Nwangene’s Remains.
London-based teacher and cultural ambassador, Uche Nworah, has shared a disturbing account regarding the transfer of the late singer Ifunanya Nwangene, popularly known as Nanyah, from Abuja to Enugu.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
In a Facebook post, Nworah revealed that the information came directly from Ifunanya’s uncle during a phone conversation. He noted that he has known the uncle for years through Facebook and felt compelled to share the account to clarify some reports circulating online.
Nworah explained that earlier claims suggesting the singer lived on the ground floor of her Abuja apartment are incorrect. According to her uncle, Ifunanya actually lived on the second floor, which casts doubt on theories about how snakes could have entered her home, as such access is usually associated with ground-floor residences.
He also recounted a strange incident that occurred during the journey to Enugu for her burial, as per her father’s wishes. The ambulance transporting her body reportedly broke down along the Abuja Expressway, causing a delay. While waiting for a replacement vehicle, a snake was allegedly found under the broken-down ambulance and was later killed before the journey continued.
Nworah emphasized that while some may view these events as mere coincidences, others could find them unsettling. He stressed that he was merely relaying what was shared with him.
He wrote:
“Beyond social media claims, I received a call from Ifunanya’s uncle, who has been my Facebook friend for many years. During our conversation, he made disclosures that some may consider disturbing, while others may view them as mere coincidences.
He stated that contrary to widespread reports on social media, Ifunanya did not live on the ground floor of her residence but on the second floor. This raises questions about how snakes could have gained access to her apartment. Had she lived on the ground floor, one might argue that the snakes entered through drainage systems or toilets, but this explanation appears less straightforward given that she lived on the second floor.
He further recounted a strange incident that occurred while her body was being transported to Enugu State in an ambulance, in accordance with her father’s wishes. According to him, the ambulance conveying her remains broke down along the Abuja Expressway, necessitating a replacement vehicle. During the wait, he said, a snake was discovered beneath the broken-down ambulance and was subsequently killed.
While these incidents may be entirely unrelated and purely coincidental, they nonetheless raise questions and leave room for reflection.”
Former Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, has stated that President Bola Tinubu would lose the 2027 presidential election if the African Democratic Congress (ADC) is allowed to participate fully.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
News reports that Amaechi made the claim during an appearance on Channels Television’s breakfast programme on Friday.
He criticised the Tinubu administration and the All Progressives Congress (APC), accusing them of interfering in opposition parties and attempting to weaken potential challengers ahead of the election.
Amaechi argued that regardless of whether the election is free or flawed, Tinubu would be defeated if credible opposition candidates are on the ballot.
He also dismissed interpretations of a Court of Appeal ruling suggesting the opposition was leaderless, insisting that such claims misrepresent the law.
According to him, the government is working to prevent strong opponents from emerging by using institutions, including the judiciary, to influence party structures.
Amaechi called on authorities to allow political institutions to function independently and ensure that all parties can field candidates without interference.
He maintained that Nigerians would ultimately decide at the polls, questioning the administration’s chances amid economic challenges and ongoing insecurity.
“How can he win with the current state of the economy and security situation?” he asked.

Reacting to the development, Airtel Nigeria’s Director of Marketing, Ismail Adeshina, described the decision as necessary and responsible.
He said: “This is a necessary and responsible step as we align our operations with evolving requirements. Airtel Nigeria remains committed to the highest standards of compliance, transparency, and consumer protection, while continuing to innovate responsibly within Nigeria’s digital ecosystem.”
Airtel added that further updates on the suspended service will be communicated in due course.
The development comes amid growing regulatory scrutiny of digital lending and credit-based telecom services in Nigeria.
