It was a sorrowful day for two professors, Steve Tamuno and Needorn Richard Sorle, lecturing at the Department of Economics, University of Port Harcourt, where they were dragged before a Federal High Court, Port Harcourt for allegedly pirating the work of an American-based Nigerian professor.
Dailypost gathered that the two professors copied the work of Professor Dike, an Associate Professor at the School of Engineering and Technology, National University, Sacramento, United States, without authorisation or acknowledgement.
In the suit filed by Prof. Dike’s lawyer, Mr. onyiye Obiaju, the Don emphasised that the two uniport professors illegally copied his article title “Corruption in Nigeria: Understanding and Managing the Challenges.” Published in the Nigeria’s Eonomic Summit Group, NESG, economic indicators and published same as and article titled Corruption and Economic Growth: A Survey of Three Institutions in Nigeria in Journals of Research in National Development Volume 6, June 2008 without acknowledging him as the original author.
Justifying his claim, Dike tendered an apology letter written to him by one of the accused professors apologising for illegally copying his work however affirming that both profssors did not deny committing the alleged crime.
The letter labelled annexure P6 reads in part: “I Needorn Richards S, received your reaction to my article co-authored with Tamuno Steve (PhD) through the Chief Editor of the journal of Research in National Development – Kenneth U. Nnadi (PhD) alleging that our article plagiarises your work in African Economics Analysis. “I am writing this letter to tender my unreserved apology on my behalf and senior colleague. This is the very first of my doing an article on a journal publication. Though in the first submitted material, I referenced you citing that the whole of my work was lifted directly from your idea and earlier published work and thus referenced you properly but I assume this was lost duritng several editing which is not an excuse. I accept every mistake and responsibility for the omission. Please accept my sincere apology and forgive. Thanks for your understanding, forgiveness, and willing cooperation.”
Dike claimed that his readers do not value his work due to the illegality committed by the two professors, hence asked the court to order both lecturers to withdraw the papers from the public and remove same from the website of the University of Port Harcourt as well as award him the sum of N27 million as compensation.
The matter is scheduled for mention on the 15th January, 2013.

Sixteen-year-old Old girl Beaten By "SIX SNAKES" While Searching For Network

Sometimes the best option is actually to forget the call than risk being “gang-beaten” by six Rattle snakes!

Sixteen-year-old Vera Oliphant was walking in a rural area outside of San Diego searching for a cellphone signal to call her mom. But she ended up needing to call out for help after being attacked by a group of rattlesnakes.

The San Diego teen was visiting her uncle on Oct. 27, in Jamul. She had walked up a hill trying to get a cellphone signal to give her mom a call.

She heard them before she saw them. “I ran backward and stepped into a pit of snakes, ” she told Fox News San Diego. She added, “My body instantly started going numb.” She was bitten on her right foot at least six times, first by the mother and then the five babies.
She hobbled back to her uncle’s house, and he rushed her to the hospital.


It took 24 vials of antivenom to neutralize the toxin from the bites. The cheery teen with dyed red hair and face piercing spent four days in intensive care, and two weeks at home on crutches to nurse her swollen foot.

But recovery will be slow. “The doctors told me that I need two to three months to completely recover from the bites. But I will feel a weird sensation when stepping on my right leg for years,” she told ABC News.

The junior has recovered and was expecting to return to school, Chaparral High School in El Cajon, a little sore and a little wiser.

Take it from an experienced teen

She told Fox News, “If you’re in the desert, for one, wear boots. And two, don’t bring your cellphone or go searching for reception, because you probably won’t find it anyways. And you might step into a pit of rattlesnak
