A 31-year-old pregnant woman unexpectedly went into labour while travelling in a taxi, leaving the rest of the passengers in panic and confusion.
They immediately alerted the driver, who quickly pulled over to look into the situation. Traffic police, who were nearby, soon arrived at the scene to find out what was going on in the minibus. “The lady had gone into sudden labour. Traffic officers stationed close by went to inspect what was happening. They found the lady was in labour and immediately called paramedics,” says Nick Dollman, Netcare 911 spokesperson. 

Luckily, the paramedics were also near the scene and were able to get there within a short time to help the lady. The rest of the passengers were ordered out of the vehicle to give some space and privacy to the woman who was just about to give birth. "Looking at the situation, there was hardly any time left to transfer her to the ambulance. So the rest of the passengers had to leave the taxi to create space and provide privacy for the lady in labour,” says Dollman. 

Netcare 911 paramedics, Walter Molife and Elmi Changuion, successfully delivered the baby. Despite the unusual delivery room, there was no complication. Interestingly, this was not the first time that these two paramedics were delivering a child outside the delivery room. About five months earlier, they had reportedly helped another woman give birth on railway line. 

Meanwhile, the passengers were busy coining a befitting nickname for the baby, who had just been born in the minibus taxi. Considering her birthplace, they suggested that the baby be named 'Quantum'.

  The Synagogue Church of all Nations (SCOAN) has countered the BBC documentary on the late Temitope Babatunde Joshua, known as TB Joshua, founder of SCOAN. SCOAN described the documentary against TB Joshua as unfounded, and that the characters interviewed in the report were unknown to the church. The church, in a statement signed by its Public Affairs Director, Mr Dare Adejumo, said the statement was aimed at disabusing public minds from the report. The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) recalls that the BBC released a highly controversial and damning documentary on the late TB Joshua on Monday, accusing him of various crimes, including rape, against some members. SCOAN said, “BBC World Services investigative unit, code-named Africa Eye, came out this week with weird and strange episodes of atrocities against the late founder of SCOAN.” It said that to investigate and publish or broadcast reports was a central kernel of journalism, but to do so outside the ethics and fundamental principles

  The NBA has suspended former San Antonio Spurs guard  Joshua Primo   for four games   ... after it says it found he exposed his private parts to multiple women. The league announced the ban on Friday morning ... saying an investigation into the free agent revealed he had "engaged in inappropriate and offensive behavior." NBA officials called his actions "conduct detrimental to the league." They did, however, note that they "did not find evidence that he engaged in any sexual or other misconduct apart from these brief exposures." "Primo maintains that his conduct was not intentional," the league said. Dr. Hillary Cauthen , Primo's former therapist, was the first to  bring the allegations  against Primo to light after she claimed last fall that he exposed himself to her on nine separate occasions. Dr. Cauthen's attorney,  Tony Buzbee , alleged the Spurs were aware of Primo's actions, but didn't take action. Cauthen went on to file
