3 year old Imienfan Omokaro
PM News is reporting that Winners Chapel Owner, Bishop David Oyedepo,
has been asked to pay N2 billion within 14 days for the death of
three-year-old Imienfan Omokaro who got drowned at Kingdom Heritage
Model School operated by Winners Chapel in Benin.
The amount is said to be "for the callous and senseless killing of our
client's daughter, Miss Imienfan Omokaro." The was said by Omokaro's
Counsel, Prince Peter E. Uwadiae-Igbinigie. In addition, Mr. Omokaro's
lawyers want Kingdom Heritage Model School to tender unreserved
apology in three national newspapers, warning that if the demands were
not met within 14 days,
"we have the irrevocable instructions of our client to commence legal
action against the school (Kingdom Heritage Model School) and Church
(Winners Chapel) without any further correspondence from this
Chambers."
Imienfan Omokaro, a KG I pupil of Kingdom Heritage Model School, was
said to have drowned in a drum of water in a toilet in the school on
November 1, 2012, and it is said that teachers did not inform the
mother when the incident happened.
School authorities are alleged to have kept the girl for more than an
hour, praying for her instead of seeking medical attention. She was
finally taked to Irowa Hospital in Benin, where she was confirmed
dead.

TWITTER taken to COURT over OWNERSHIP OF TWEETS
Who owns your tweets? who has the rights to sharing your tweets or
making money from them? Twitter or you?
That debate has now landed in court.
A San Francisco judge on Wednesday granted a temporary restraining
order compelling Twitter to continue providing access to its
"Firehose" – the full daily stream of some 400 million tweets – to
PeopleBrowsr Inc, a data analytics firm that sifts through Twitter and
resells that information to clients ranging from technology blogs to
the U.S. Department of Defense.
As part of a broader revenue-generating strategy, Twitter in recent
months has begun clamping down on how its data stream may be accessed,
to the dismay of many third-party developers who have built businesses
and products off of Twitter's Firehose.
PeopleBrowsr, which began contracting Firehose access in July 2010,
has continued to buy Twitter data on a month-to-month basis until this
July, when Twitter invoked a clause in the agreement that allowed for
terminating the contract without cause.
The court's decision to extend the two San Francisco-based companies'
contract has not settled the legal spat; a judge will hear
PeopleBrowsr's arguments for a preliminary injunction against Twitter
on January 8.
But the case could provide the first, in-depth look at issues
surrounding one of the Internet industry's most prominent players in
Twitter.
In a court filing, PeopleBrowsr founder John David Rich argued the
Twitter move was a "commercial disaster" for his business and
contradicted the spirit of repeated public statements that Twitter has
made regarding its data.
"Twitter has repeatedly and consistently promised that it would
maintain an 'open ecosystem' for its data," Rich said in his company's
request for a temporary injunction.
In its response, Twitter's lawyers argued: "This is Contracts 101."
Twitter said in a statement after the court decision: "We believe the
case is without merit and will vigorously defend against it."

David Beckham Wins Second Championship, Bids Farewell to Galaxy
Win it like Beckham! David Beckham's final game with the Los Angeles
Galaxy on Saturday sent him off as a two-time MLS champion. The
37-year-old, who transformed the team over six seasons, went out on
top--beating the Houston Dynamo 3-1 in the MLS Cup Saturday.
Aiding the British hottie in the win was Galaxy teammate, Landon
Donovan, who scored the tiebreaking goal on a penalty kick. Alongside
Beckham, and sharing in the celebration, were sons Brooklyn, Romeo and
Cruz, who proudly stood alongside their dad on the winning podium with
the team.
"There's a lot of rumors about where I'm going to play," he told
Seacrest, "what we're going to do, where we're going to live. We
actually haven't made up our minds about where we are going to end up.
But it's a big decision to make.
