Except the body returns to the earth, the soul would continue to move around the visinity of the body. In some Igbo communities with some certain trad-cultural observances, certain riguals are usually conducted before the soul of some elders are separated. The essence of such rituals is to spiritually disconnect the soul from it's involvement bodily. Some souls feel free and committed to their intent because of their intention to accomplish tasks or make sure that their instructions before death are followed precisely.

Image
Copied from the book,  Cosmic Chain , by Onyeji Nnaji The term mutation is used by philologists to dramatize a situation in the structural formation at the word level (within a particular language) where there is no explicit change encountered in the structure of two different words rather in their phonological compositions. Mutation generally is used to denote an observable change in the form of one organism from another. This change can be physical or biochemical in nature. The physical change connotes that which the eyes can see, while the biochemical change anchors the internal process that gives rise to it. Mutation is employed here to explicate the process and condition which souls undergo in other to accomplish their required days within a particular cycle here on earth. This is different from the splitting of the soul. Soul mutation simply refer to the situation where a particular soul leaves a particular environment after the demise of the bearer-body and moves to another envi

(Photo by PETER PARKS/AFP via Getty Images) Chinese developers have now created “griefbots,” which are chat programs that represent the personalities and recollections of the deceased, using a combination of cutting-edge artificial intelligence (AI) technologies in an effort to re-connect with their loved ones.

His grandfather, who passed away more than ten years ago, came to mind as he read the piece. “Can I see Grandpa again using this technology?” Yu Jialin asked. His quest to recreate his grandfather is one of countless instances of Chinese tech-enthusiasts utilizing AI to bring the dead back to life. Yu had the ability to “say his goodbyes to his grandfather” through the application. Yu stated that he was just 17 years old when his grandfather passed away in an interview

Chief Edwin Clark …condemns re-appointment of sacked Abba as PTF Chair By Henry Umoru South-South leader, Chief Edwin Clark, has condemned in very strong terms the re-appointment of sacked Inspector-General of Police, IGP, Suleiman Abba, as the Chairman of Police Trust Fund, PTF. According to the leader of the Pan Niger Delta Forum, PANDEF, the re-appointment of Abba appears to be compensation for the roles he allegedly played during the 2015 general elections. In a letter to President Nuhannadu Buhari, Clark, who urged Buhari to re-examine his actions as he winds up his tenure, stressed that Nigerians could not also forget in a jiffy the perceived disloyal action of the PTF boss when, as IGP, he went to the airport to receive Buhari, without the knowledge and or authorisation of his principal, Dr. Goodluck Jonathan, who was the President at the time. That action, according to Clark, led to Abba’s sack from the Police Force. The Leader of the Southern and Middle Belt Leaders Forum, SMB
