Man Accidentally Gets His Testicle Trapped In A Chair

After a knee injury, Claus Jørstad of Alta, Norway invested in a MARIUS Stool from IKEA to sit on while he showered — but that plan backfired big time. While sitting on the chair during a recent rinse, one of Jørstad’s testicles got stuck in a hole on the seat when the hot water caused them to expand.

“Sitting there and noticing the accident, I bent down to see what happened, I realized the little nutter has got stuck,” he told Daily Mail. He sat there so long, in fact, that the water turned cold. However, Jørstad thinks the freezing water was actually his saving grace. You see, the temperature drop caused his testicle to shrink again, which allowed him to safely free his little guy.

But after the incident, he decided to warn others about his experience by taking to Facebook and alerting IKEA in a post that has since gone viral. According to Daily Dot, Jørstad told IKEA, “Sitting there and noticing the accident, I bent down to see what the f*ck happened, I realized the little nutter has got stuck.” He also said, “The water turned cold by itself. So I started freezing. The water got cold. Even more cold than my mother-in-law’s smile when I married her daughter.”

The Code of Conduct Bureau has said that assets declared by public officers would not be available for public inspection.

In a response to the Advocate for Peoples Rights and Justice, the CCB said that assets declarations by public officers contain personal information ?that fall within the exemptions of the Freedom of Information Act.

The advocacy group had filed an FOI request demanding the assets declaration forms of the heads of both the CCB; the Code of Conduct Tribunal; and Nasir El-Rufai, the governor of Kaduna State (while he was the FCT minister).

“This is to ensure the citizens’ right to know, in line with your fight against corruption,” the group stated in a letter dated September 28 and signed by Victor Giwa, its National Coordinator.

The request came a week after the CCB slammed? a 13-count charge of false asset declaration and corruption against? Bukola Saraki, the Senate President.

The ?b?ureau accused Mr. Saraki? of offences ranging from anticipatory declaration of assets to failing to declare some assets – which were beyond his legitimate earning – he acquired while in office as governor.

APC Pays Tribute To Outgoing Govs’ Forum Chair Amaechi

The Rivers State Chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has hailed the gains attained by the Nigeria Governors’ Forum with Rotimi Amaechi at the helm.

The party said he had united a once divided organisation, describing it as a political masterstroke. “History will record the polarisation of the NGF, which served as a counter-force to check the excesses of the outgoing Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)-led Federal Government under the watch of Dr. Goodluck Jonathan, as one of the tragedies of the Seventh Republic,” Rivers APC Chairman, Davies Ikanya stated in Port Harcourt.

“It will, however, also record the good news that Governor Amaechi in his political sagacity was able to repair the damage done to this very important pressure group before graciously bowing out of office upon the successful completion of his eight years as governor.”

Ikanya described the feat as the best possible way by Amaechi, who is also the outgoing Rivers State Governor, to mark his coming of age.

“This is no doubt one of the best 50th birthday gifts for Governor Amaechi, as he prepares to celebrate the hitting of the golden age. It also further consolidates on his rising profile as a great political force who played a pivotal role in our great party’s dethronement of PDP, which prided itself as the largest political party in Africa and boasted that it would rule Nigeria for 60 years,” Ikanya said.

The party congratulated the patriotic PDP Governors who actively supported the unification efforts, namely, Godswill Akpabio of Akwa Ibom, Isa Yuguda of Bauchi, Emmanuel Uduaghan of Delta State, Babangida Aliyu of Niger, Ramalan Yero of Kaduna, Usman Dakingari of Kebbi, and Gabriel Suswam of Benue.

“History will be kind to these governors for teaming up with their brother Governors in our great party to salvage the NGF,” Rivers APC said.

The party advised the Governors and the fresh set of Governors to be sworn-in on May 29 to jealously guard their new-found unity under the new leadership of Governor Abdulaziz Yari of Zmafara State.

“Never again should the Governors allow outsiders, no matter how powerful, to divide them. Never again should they allow the injustice and wickedness in which a man who got 16 votes was declared a winner over one that got 19 votes,” said Ikanya.

“We urge the Governors to put the NGF’s ugly past behind them and forge ahead to develop a more robust, virile and vibrant Forum that will work towards the greatness of our nation and emancipation of the generality of Nigerians,” Ikanya APC stated.
