Man falls into pit while playing game on his phone then continues the game inside the pit

A Chinese man was so obsessed with his phone that he fell into a pit and injured himself while using it, but even at that, he still refused to put it down and continued playing on the phone as he waited for help.



Rescuers who arrived at the scene to help the man out of the 13ft deep hole were stunned to find the man still playing on his phone even though he was in extreme pain after suffering a fractured kneecap.



The incident took place in Karamay in western China's Xinjiang Province. The man, said to be a construction worker, fell to the bottom of the manhole after failing to notice that it wasn't covered. He was looking at his phone at the time, reported Kan Kan News.







The report said when firefighters arrived, they saw that the man was still playing games on his handset while sitting at the bottom of the hole. It is said the man was whining in pain while staring at his screen.

Firefighters attached straps around the man before pulling him out of the hole using a rescue tripod. The man was taken to the hospital afterwards and is reported to be recovering.

''Most of the rice smuggled into Nigeria are expired and are meant for animals'' - Lai Mohammed

Minister of Information, Lai Mohammed, has raised the alarm that expired rice meant for animals is being smuggled into Nigeria for Nigerians to consume. The Minister made this allegation while speaking with journalists in his Oro country home yesterday August 21st.



According to Lai Mohammed, most of the rice being smuggled into Nigeria will fail NAFDAC test because most of them have been on the shelf more than six years and had expired.


“The rice being imported now are not fit for consumption in their countries of origin. They are also being subsidised and sent here even in credit because those people know that they are unfit for consumption; they are only fit for animals. Imported rice are mostly smuggled into the country because they cannot pass NAFDAC test. No Nigerian rice is more than one year old but the imported ones have spent even six years in their countries”, he said.



Lai Mohammed said that in the next one and half years, Nigeria will become self-sufficient in rice production given the commitment of the administration to agriculture.


“In the area of agriculture, it has been a huge revolution. Let’s take one of our national staples, such as rice, as an example. When we came in, there were 5 million rice farmers. Today, we have in excess of 11 million rice farmers. Our rice import has been cut by over 80 per cent. These didn’t happen by accident. It was a result of our Anchor Borrowers Programme. There are more millionaire farmers today than at any other time in the history of our nation. Today, Nigeria is close to achieving self-sufficiency in rice than at any other time in the history of our country'' he said
