Hulk Hogan Asks For Forgiveness Over Racist Slur, Quits WWE

One of wrestling's most iconic figures, Terry Bollea better known as Hulk Hogan has pleaded for forgiveness for the racist remarks he made.

His plea for forgiveness comes on the heels of reports that he used racist slurs during a conversation about eight years ago.

He has also followed his public plea with an announcement that he is resigning from his contractual relationship with World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE).

"Eight years ago I used offensive language during a conversation", Hogan tells Us Weekly. "It was unacceptable for me to have used that offensive language; there is no excuse for it; and I apologize for having done it. I believe very strongly that every person in the world is important and should not be treated differently based on race, gender, orientation, religious beliefs or otherwise. I am disappointed with myself that I used language that is offensive and inconsistent with my own beliefs. It is not who I am. I continue to work every day to improve as a person, and this matter is an important learning experience for me in that regard. As a result I am resigning from my contractual relationship with the WWE", the 61-year-old wrestler, who made his debut in 1977 and remains one of the best-known names in the industry, said on Friday.

Obama's Trip To Kenya In 1987 And His 2015 Visit Compared

The reception waiting for US President Barack Obama is a far cry from his arrival in Nairobi as a young community organiser 29 years ago.

Also travelling in his delegation are some of America's wealthiest and most powerful businessmen.

The airspace around the airport will be closed as his plane, escorted by a fleet of military helicopters, touches down on the tarmac.

Waiting at the bottom of the red carpet is likely to be Kenya's President Uhuru Kenyatta as well as a host of dignitaries and business leaders.

Mr Obama will step into his armour-plated limousine The Beast and the roads around the capital of East Africa's largest economy will be closed as his convoy, protected by the best – trained security teams on earth, whisks him to the country's most luxurious hotels.

Villagers Behead Woman For Witchcraft In India

A 63-year-old Indian woman, Moni Orang, has been beheaded and her body dismembered by irate villagers who accused her of witchcraft.

“The attackers armed with machetes and other crude implements descended on the village and took away Moni Orang from her house and then brutally killed her. She was decapitated and her limbs were chopped off,” a senior police official, Manabendra Dev Roy, told AFP.

Seven people have been arrested over her death but on Tuesday some aggrieved villagers stormed the local police station to protest against the arrests.

“Moni was a witch and had cast evil spells on her enemies,” said Kiran Teronpi, a man who lived in the area. “There is no place for such sorcerers and so her killing is justified,” he said.

The victim’s husband said his wife was ‘an innocent woman’ and accused the priests of stoking ‘suspicion and provocation’.

Nine-Year-Old Girl Escapes Beheading By Armed Robber

Residents of Oyo-Ode area of Ede in Osun State are living in constant fear of attack from criminals whose targets are the children living in the area. Many residents of the area are terrified of passing through a road in front of the Ede Muslim Burial ground because of criminals who lurk in the area.

A nine-year-old girl, Zainab Oluwole, escaped death narrowly in the area recently. Zainab’s mother, Adebukola Oluwole, a nurse at the State Hospital, Ede, was cooking dinner for her family to break their fast when she realised that she needed to buy some things and headed for the market.

Unknown to her, a burglar was lurking around the house and waiting for an opportunity to strike. The burglar invaded the house having seen that the man of the house, Mr. Raheem Kabir, had earlier left the house before the woman also left.

Although Zainab and her sister, Aishat, who is just seven years old, were intelligent enough to bolt the door as soon as their mother left, this still could not save them from the criminal’s attack. The criminal made several attempts to trick the two children to open the door for him but they refused.

Some weeks ago, reports claimed that, Maje Ayida, the husband of popular on-air-personality, Toke Makinwa, impregnated a long time lover and flew her out of the country to be delivered of the baby.

Ever since the news broke both parties especially, Ayida, kept mum on the issue and their silence fuelled so many speculations.

In his apology, he made it clear that he was wrong and he was still in love with his wife.

My behaviour has caused a lot of anguish to everyone. Though this matter has been very public in nature, it is a private issue and I would appreciate the opportunity to face it privately.”

When Saturday Beats contacted him on the phone, the bald fitness expert, declined to comment on the issue stating that he made it clear in his message that it was an issue he would prefer to handle privately. He however insisted that he was still very much in love with his beautiful wife.

Doctors Attach Man’s Severed Hands To His Leg

Chinese surgeons recently performed a bizarre surgery in order to save a man’s severed hand. They grafted it on to his ankle for a month, before reattaching it to his arm.

The innovative surgery, according to Shanghaiist, was carried out on a factory worker, Zhou, in China’s Hunan province. Zhou’s left hand was accidentally severed from his arm during an accident involving a spinning blade machine. He was immediately rushed to hospital where Dr. Tang Juyu and his team realised that the damaged nerves and tendons needed time to heal. If they tried to attach the hand to his arm immediately, its cells would die from lack of blood supply.

“Under normal temperatures, a severed finger needs to resume blood supply within 10 hours, but that time is even shorter for a separated limb,” Tang explained. “If a limb is short of blood for too long, its tissues die and it will be unsalvageable.”
