Man Calls Cops After Being Stalked by Pig

Published

on

A man called police to report that he was being stalked by a pig in the early hours of Saturday morning, only for officers to accuse him of being drunk. But when cops were sent out to find the man in North Ridgeville, Ohio, they discovered that he was sober – and telling the truth.

An officer wrangled the porker into his cruiser, and it was taken to a police station where cops housed it in a dog kennel, before later reuniting the animal with its owner.

A North Ridgeville Police Department spokesman said: ‘At 5:26 this morning we received a call from a male who stated that he was walking home on Center Ridge from the Train Station in Elyria. ‘He went on to state that he was being followed by a pig and didn’t know what to do.

Night shift responded to the obviously drunk guy walking home from the bar at 5:26 in the morning. ‘He was at least drunk enough to call the police on himself while hallucinating. ‘Upon arrival, they found a very sober male walking eastbound on Center Ridge near Maddock Rd. from the actual Amtrak train station in Elyria, not the bar. ‘Oh, and he was being followed by a pig. ‘Yes, a pig. ‘

The PD even shared a photo of the relaxed-looking pig sat in their car on Facebook – and warned any prospective jokers that they’d already thought of the obvious ‘pig’ gag.

2027 Presidency: No Candidate Can Win Without Northern Support – Hakeem Baba-Ahmed

Published

on

Dr. Hakeem Baba-Ahmed, former Special Adviser on Political Matters to President Bola Tinubu, has emphasized that no presidential candidate can emerge victorious in the 2027 elections without the backing of the North.

Speaking on the political direction of the region, Baba-Ahmed stated, “In the next six months, the North will decide its stance. If the rest of the country aligns with us, great. If not, we’ll move forward on our own terms. One thing is certain — no one becomes Nigeria’s president without Northern support.”

He expressed deep concern about the nation’s current condition and called on Northerners to reject divisive and manipulative politicians ahead of the next general elections.

“We need a government that understands our challenges and is ready to fix them. After Buhari’s eight years, we became wiser. Now we are in a new administration, yet we’re still complaining. Is that all we do—cry?” he asked.

Recalling the impact of the Boko Haram crisis, Baba-Ahmed noted that it affected every Northern group — Muslims, Christians, Fulani, Baju, and others — and called for unity across the region.

“Before Buhari, Boko Haram was bombing mosques, churches, Abuja, and Lagos. That period demanded unity among Northerners. Today, no politician can just walk in and expect automatic Northern support. Who are you?” he asked pointedly.

He warned against further marginalization of the North, stressing that continuous neglect would not go unnoticed. “If the plan is to rig the elections, they should think again. It won’t end well for Nigeria. The North is paying attention. Elders, the masses, and interest groups are reaching their breaking point. The injustice must stop.”

Baba-Ahmed also encouraged Northerners to abandon identity-based politics, urging voters to prioritize competence and integrity.

“We’re done voting based on religion or ethnicity. That chapter is closed. All we want is the right leader — even if he drops from heaven — someone who will fix our problems,” he declared.

He concluded by affirming that the North had learned hard lessons from past choices and would approach the 2027 elections with greater discernment and resolve.
