The Real Story Behind the 'Heart-breaking' Image of a Syrian Child 'Surrendering' to Camera'.

The picture of the Syrian child above spread across social media the world over, this week, after it was tweeted by Nadia Abu Shaban’s, a photojournalist in Gaza.

The fear in the little girl’s eyes as she bit her lip to stop herself from crying has caused an outpouring of emotions. She has been so scarred by war that she raised her arms and  'surrendered to camera because she thought it was the barrel of a gun'. But the lack of further information on the picture caused  speculations that the image was fake, posed or taken in an unrelated situation.

But now, Osman Sağırlı, the Turkish photographer who took the photo has come forward to explain the real context behind it.

Osman Sağırlı told the BBC he took the photo in December last year at Atmeh refugee camp, Syria, near the Turkish border.

He said the child was a four-year-old girl called Hudea who was forced to flee fighting near her home in Hama with her mother and two siblings.

“I was using a telephoto lens and she thought it was a weapon,” Mr Sağırlı recounted.

"I  realised she was terrified after I took it, and looked at the picture, because she bit her lips and raised her hands. Normally kids run away, hide their faces or smile when they see a camera.”

He further told the BBC that suffering can most keenly be seen through children because they “reflect the feelings with their innocence”.


Please stop the Syrian killings and show the children the beauty they possess inside.

SHOCKING: How Former Teacher Led Kenya Terror Attack on 147 Christian students

President Jonathan's Accreditation Unsuccessful With Four Card Readers


President Goodluck Jonathan was accredited at polling unit 13 in his hometown Otazi in Otueke, Bayelsa State after failed attempts by four card readers.

After about thirty minutes, the fifth card reader succeeded in capturing his biometrics.

While leaving the location after a successful accreditation, the president urged Nigerians to be patient with the electoral body in getting their accreditation done.

The chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, Attahiru Jega, had said that if the card reader fails to capture a voter’s biometrics, the commission’s staff at the polling units will resort to manual accreditation.

And GEJ just stood there patiently. How embarrassing that must have been.

Photo: Meet The Governor's Wife That Must Be Worshipped Else You Have Your Neck Cut Off...


Recently, a picture went viral that has generated a lot of condemnation from the public.

Yes, you guessed right,  it's a picture of Mr Don Etim, the Commissioner of Works, kneeling to talk to wife of Akwa Ibom State Governor, Mrs Unoma Akpabio during one of the Peoples Democratic Party campaign rallies in the state.

From feelers, this seem to be the rule rather than the exception, kneeling, bowing or prostrating for the wife of Akwa Ibom State governor, Mrs. Unoma Akpabio, is a common feature in Akwa Ibom State.

According to OsunDefender newspaper, those who do not tow this line often have their 'necks cut off politically' and are considered to be anti-Akpabio’s administration.

Many of the commissioners in the state cannot stand before Mrs. Akpabio to talk; they must either face a different direction or stoop low before her.

A Commissioner for Women Affairs and Social Welfare, Dr. Glory Edet, was recently seen fanning her during the presentation of the 2015 Appropriation Bill to the House of Assembly.

Similarly, a member in the Akwa Ibom State House of Assembly, representing Mbo State Constituency, Mrs. Alice Ekpenyong, knelt before the governor’s wife at the Independent National Electoral Commission office, where they were being presented with the certificates of return in 2011.

Oh, well, I choose to be silent on this matter to save my head too o. Hehehe
