The Gangsters still speaks for Nigeria. Et-u Atiku?

"Believe me if there was that electoral alliance, there would be no PDP today forming government because Buhari would have brought the votes from the North West to add to the votes from the South West.
So, when I visited Buhari last week, I went through all these with him and I asked him if he agreed with me that we would all lose if he didn’t and he said ‘yes, now I agree.’ I said you did it in 2007, you failed; in 2011, you did it again you failed, I failed, everybody failed.
I asked if he agreed that if we all come together it would be better he said he agreed. So, APC is a completely new experiment, just like when PDP was formed, it was thought to be unthinkable because we came from the SDP and some from the NRC – right of left and left of right.

APC has the chance of succeeding if well managed and I concede to you that really, politicians have lost a lot of credibility in the last year or two.
So, really, there is need for politicians to re-invent themselves so that the credibility they have lost, can be regained.

Last night I told Asiwaju and we agreed that General Buhari is now becoming a politician unlike before. Now, Asiwaju said he is more democratized and now, you can sit down and he is not rigid like before. There is hope for this country".~Atiku Abubakar, Former vice-president

A Nigerian forger Nabbed

Since The Government of Nigeria promotes corruption and pampers it, some youths in the country have found a means of livelihood in the game through fraudulent practices, thousands of unemployed youths resorted to illegal styles of defrauding victims to survive.

Sun News reports that

Nemesis has caught up with 36-year-old Adeniyi Adebayo Daniel who has been accused of forging certificates of various tertiary institutions across the country. Daniel, who hails from Osun State, attended Ajangbadi High School in Lagos and obtained only a secondary school certificate before setting up a tutorial centre, at Isashi, in Ojo area of Lagos, where he prepares students for West African Examinations Council (WAEC) supervised exams, National Examinations Council (NECO) exams; Joint Admission and Matriculations Board examinations, among others.

With alleged forged certificates of various tertiary institutions, no one would be in doubt of his academic competence to operate a tutorial centre.

Woman sets self, hubby ablaze

"They died together – by fire. The house they both shared as man and wife is also in ruins, burnt to the ground. As at the time of writing this report, the charred body of the woman lay morbidly in the midst of the debris. Approaching the burnt building, certain eerie feeling hits with a good impact. The man, who was saved from dying with his wife inside the fire, died on the way to hospital. “You can say both of them died together,” observed a shocked, grieving neighbour.

The puzzle now is not just that the couple, Patience and Monday Chilaekezie died by fire. To the Umuodu community in Ezinihitte Local Government Area of Imo State, it is that they can hardly understand why Patience could have been so incensed and callous to the extent of setting herself and her husband on fire.

Nigerian Boy Kills Mother In America

Issac Ojiabor

 “A 20-year-old Forest Hill man was arrested by Harford County Sheriff’s Office deputies early Thursday morning, hours after police said he stabbed his mother to death in their home.

Isaac Anya Ojiabo Jr., 20, was taken into custody without incident at approximately 4:30 a.m., when detectives canvassing the Forest Hill area located him in his family’s white Lexus SUV at the intersection of Crouse and Putnam Road, Sheriff’s Office spokesman Edward Hopkins said.

Ojiabo was being held at the Harford County Detention Center Thursday morning, awaiting an initial appearance before a District Court Commissioner on charges of first and second degree murder and assault with a deadly weapon.

A piece that should make old Nigeria tugs cry and compel the young to take charge By Pius Adesanmi

And a time to every purpose under the heaven. A time to spit on June 12 and a time to be an Abacha forever zealot. A time to receive more than two hundred billion naira for road construction and a time not to construct or repair a single road. A time to work for Obasanjo’s third term agenda and a time to insist that Yar’Adua could rule Nigeria forever as a ghost from a Saudi hospital bed. A time to abandon the Turai-Cabal train when it became clear that Yar’Adua would die and a time to work for Jonathan 2015. A time for your iyanga to go and disturb the sleep of trouble and a time for trouble to respond by sending wahala your way in the person of Sam Nda-Isaiah. A time to be reminded by Sam Nda-Isaiah that, at over 80 years-old, it is painful to watch you dance naked at the behest of your latest master in Aso Rock and a time for you to know that it is time to leave us alone and retire to your country home. Indeed, there is a time to every purpose under the heaven.

An Open Letter To Pastor Kris Okotie by Bimbola Gold

Chris Okotie

Dear Pastor, 

happy New Year to you and your fold, it’s a waste of time to bother about how you are because a sick soul can’t contemplate contesting for a public seat.

It wouldn’t have been necessary for me to write you sir, over the years I’ve had my reservations about you but the fact that I saw posters of your 2015 presidential ambitions made it obvious that you need some home truths since the people surrounding you have failed to do it.

First and foremost I need to make you understand that I’m a Christian like you, a Pentecostal one for that matter. I am not in any position to question your call or ministry. This isn’t in any way an attack on your church but a few questions on your person; I’m one of those that believe that men of God must step into the politics of Nigeria to make the difference we all aspire, but what type of pastor are we talking about?

Nigerian gay pastor Rev. Jide Macaulay writes about the challenge of acceptance

Rowland Jide Macaulay

A Nigeria born Gay Pastor now in exile, Rowland Jide Macaulay used to run a secret gay church in Ojodu Berger Lagos known as House of Rainbow Fellowship. He relocated abroad some years back after a major newspaper did a story on his homosexual church and he started to get threats. He's still running his gay church in the UK and has been speaking out publicly against the recently passed anti-gay law in Nigeria. Jide Macaulay recently penned an article about being rejected by his father

 Towards Full Acceptance - By Rowland Jide Macaulay

I am writing this article to share my story with people who want to reconcile sexuality, faith, and family. It is a sequel to “My Father, My Faith and My Sexuality: The Dialogue” (in Q-zine’s first issue). Readers of that article will understand how much I have looked forward to visiting Nigeria again after years of estrangement. That long-postponed visit finally took place in January 2011, after a three year absence. This is the experience I want to share with you now.

Some background first. I came out as gay in 1994 after a troubled heterosexual life. My coming out was a disaster of, you might say, Biblical proportions. I was hated and denounced on mainly religious grounds, called a sinner, a defiler, an abomination, etc.

Jonathan as usual leaves Leprosy (mis-governance, Corruption, etcetera) to tackle scabies, sets death penalty for cyber crimes

Jonathan

President Jonathan is seeking the death penalty for any person who is found guilty of hacking into Criminal National Information Infrastructure or any computer network that would lead to loss of lives

The bill which is called the Cyber Crime bill 2013 and currently before the House of Reps, seeks to address all forms of criminality within the cyberspace and also proposes a life sentence for anyone who uses any computer network to carry out terrorism acts. In a case where there is no loss of life but the offender causes grave bodily harm, the bill recommends a prison term of not less than 15months.

Dear Daddy, you must accept I’m a lesbian: Gigi Chao writes Father

Giji Chao

Hong Kong socialite Gigi Chao was aversely getting more attention when her tycoon father Cecil Chao Sze-tsung declared his refusal to accept she was a lesbian by issuing a HK$500 million ‘dowry’ to a man that could marry her. Giji has written a poignant open letter to her father telling him to accept her decision.

Dear Daddy,

I thought the timing was right for us to have a candid conversation.

You are one of the most mentally astute, energetic yet well mannered and hard-working people this humble earth has ever known.

Your confidence, quick wit, and charisma brighten any room you enter.

I love you very much, and I think I can speak for my brothers also, that we have the utmost respect for you as a father and role model in business.

I am sorry that people have been saying insensitive things about you lately. The truth is, they don’t understand that I will always forgive you for thinking the way you do, because I know you think you are acting in my best interests. And we both don’t care if anybody else understands.

As your daughter, I would want nothing more than to make you happy. But in terms of relationships, your expectations of me and the reality of who I am, are not coherent.

I am responsible for some of this misplaced expectation, because I must have misled you to hope there were other options for me. You know I’ve had male lovers in the past, and I’ve had happy, albeit short-lived, relationships. I found myself temporarily happy, buoyed by the freshness, the attention, the interest, of someone physically stronger than myself.

EXPOSED: Crazy Things Some Desperate Nigerian Girls Are Doing To Get Married

sourced 

1. Snatching a friend or relation’s man. All is fair in love and war! Rumour has it that women have resorted to locking their phones, hiding their men and coding their gist from so-called friends cos it’s a jungle out there…

2. Re-inventing themselves. Pretence is the order of the day. No man wants to tame the shrew or teach the inexperienced or make an honest woman out of a dishonest one so once marriage is desired, women package themselves in pseudo, ready-made, easy-to-use, highly desirable packages. After marriage, what you see is what you get!

3. Trapping him with pregnancy. This used to be the old school method of getting a man to propose. From skipping the pill to seducing the man or getting him drunk when she was ovulating, a woman usually knew she had the man where she wanted him once she missed her period even if there was no commitment. Now the guys are saying YES to baby mamas and YES to child support. Are the girls deterred? NO! The girls have stepped up their game by involving the parents and you know parents don’t like scandals.

Governor Suntai Admits He Is Not Fit To Return To Office

Governor of Taraba state, Danbaba Suntai was brought before some reporters to speak about his mental and physical health status, “Every sane mind watching this video should be humbled by the fact of the fragility and mortality of humans, as evidenced by the favored

Governor Suntai. From his speech it is deducible that this man has been taking stock of his life, and will rather have more tranquil time with God. Could the political usurpers around him love him enough to allow him more time to recuperate in peace?

The Confession of a thieve among many thieves, Lawmaker confess the ploy to be elected to the Nigerian house of fraud

Evidence of massive corruption in Nigeria house of gangsters where votes are thrown to thieves and criminals in exchange for Rice and Groundnut oil, one of the thieves confessing the ploy of deceiving the masses whom they have consistently abandoned in a state of poverty Nigerian Politicians are known to bribe their way into power, from the president to Local government Chairman, their bait is the need of the masses which they ultimately borrow to give to them while vying for the position and Afterwards steal them blind by not fulfilling the oaths of office

Women Fight to Keep their men in South Africa as Nigerian Rulers makes "home" miserably frustrating

 It is quite troubling to know that the discrimination that African despises so much from the western world goes on in the continent of Africa. In the 70s, former Leaders of Nigeria, late gen. Murtala Muhammad and Gen. Obasanjo committed a Lot of Nigerian resources to fight apartheid, Then, some south Africans, like Late nelson Mandela, who could leave the country went into exile in Nigeria, And were not discriminated against, The Nation Nigeria is being ridiculed in almost all the country because of the Bad Leaders and many Nigerians have had to seek solace in other countries of the world by migrating to all other countries. Even the Present administration has become worse than all the past leaders put together

“ The Nigerian man said the sheet’s colour was red; his South African wife said it was rust. That discrepancy almost got the Nigerian man deported. Thelma Okoro (née Dee) and Kenneth Sunday Okoro had gone to a home affairs office for a routine interview to have their new marriage officially recognised. Because he was a foreigner, authorities had to satisfy themselves that this was indeed a legitimate couple and not a case of a South African woman accepting cash to help the Nigerian to get South African citizenship by virtue of being married to a local. The interview went swimmingly, until the matter of the sheet cropped up. "My husband said the sheet was red; and I said it was rust," said Okoro. "But this is to be expected. Men are generally colour-blind, or imprecise when it comes to colours. But the officials latched on to that. "They said the discrepancy in our answers showed that we were not living together, that I had been paid and was being used to facilitate and justify his stay in our country. I was ridiculed and insulted as a gold digger. They said I was helping a foreigner to abuse our system."

One of the officials proceeded to say – in the presence of the Okoros child – that he would deport "the dog" and detain the South African woman. Another day, another government office: Okoro was accompanying her friend, Lindelwa Uche, to a human settlements office, where the latter wanted to apply for an RDP house."One look at the name of the applicant, the official angrily said: ‘We don’t deal with foreigners!’ But when my friend stood her ground and pointed out that even though she was married to a Nigerian, she was South African, the official said: ‘If you want a house, you will have to divorce that man.’

  

Nigerian President, A pathological Liar

GEJ

Again, you have heard that it was said to the people long ago, 'Do not break your oath, but fulfill to the Lord the vows you have made.’ –Matthew 5:33 KJV

You shall be careful to do what has passed your lips, for you have voluntarily vowed to the Lord your God what you have promised with your mouth. –Deuteronomy 23:23 ESV

When you vow a vow to God, do not delay paying it, for he has no pleasure in fools. Pay what you vow. It is better that you should not vow than that you should vow and not pay. – Ecclesiastes 5:4-5 ESV

O you who believe! Why do you say that which you do not do? It is most hateful to Allah that you should say that which you do not do. - Qur'an 61:2-3

Quoting President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, in Addis Ababa on January 31st, 2011 while meeting with Nigerians working in the UN and the AU, as reported by Daniel Idonor in an article in Vanguard of 1st February, 2011, captioned, “I‘ll not contest 2015 election – Jonathan:” “President Goodluck Jonathan, yesterday, said he has no ambition to stay in office beyond 2015, assuring Nigerians in Diaspora that while he will not contest the 2015 election, he will ensure that this year’s election is free and fair.”Vanguard Feb 1st 2011

This particular article was viral. Over 5000 people shared it on the Vanguard page alone. This translated to hundreds of thousands reading it online and many more in the print version. It was one more of many instances in the run up to the April 2011 election where the serving President of Nigeria assured the country’s people that if reelected; he will not contest in the elections in 2015, him being strongly of the opinion that “four years is more than enough to make all invaluable changes to a nation.”

Your Headache, My Panadol? (Nigerians satisfied with their sufferings refusing to fight bad leaders)

Pius Adesanmi

Professor Pius Adesanmi

"In my Facebook inbox, in my gmail inbox, you have been relentless in your messages. Some of you have asked me: Prof, what’s going on? Why have your columns for Sahara Reporters and Premium Times gone cold? Why has your Facebook page gone cold? Have you given up on Nigeria? Have you deserted your readers and followers? Some of you have no room for niceties. You don’t feel that you have to be nice and charitable so you ask me point blank: Prof, have you gone quiet because you have been settled? After all, you just returned from a trip to Nigeria…

Let’s answer the last question first. No, I have not been settled. I cannot be settled. My answer has never changed anytime anybody from the establishment has approached me to test the waters of ‘settleability’. You must understand that you cannot do what I do, write the stuff that I write, say the stuff that I say, without being approached carefully by self-appointed folks testing the waters to see if you can be “encouraged” to go easy on whichever Oga you are focusing your laser on. They think they are wise. They speak in parables. But if you are smart, you know what they are driving at: name your price.

Goldie Hawn deceived by Nigerian President, withdraws supports and praise

Jonathan & Goldie Hawn

Goldie Hawn American actress film director, producer, and occasional singer who has a lot of sympathy for the gays has publicly rescinded her public praise for Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan who stood in the position of judgment in a secular country to  hand out his public punishment for the gay sect,

The actress was under fire after ignorantly declaring misguided Jonathan as a wonderful president without knowing him just the way most foreign commentators are quick to say.

She immediately withdrew her support for Jonathan when she realised that he is a draconian despot who have no regards for the rights of some sect.

Nigeria's wealthy pastors under the spotlight

SSS acting on the orders of Jonathan to intimidate, choosing his fight against 2015

Call them any name, SSS, Police, Soldiers, Navy, Air force etcetera, it is just a Lie, They work for the President, Yes. They can be used as tools, to intimidate, to harass and to carry out all the wills of the president, They are themselves Lawbreakers who have no respect for the man on the street because they are garbed in government attires, Poverty drove several to the duties and the fact that they are shielded once they are in that Uniform amongst their lawless rogues colleagues. They abuse the rights of citizens when on uniform, beating a common man on the street and are watched by a gathering crowd who would dare not interfere.

They are paid to protect the President and are happy that millions others who are not connected to them by birth suffers the misrule of a sect of criminals in power. They are posted away from their own parents so their crimes will not be cautioned by culture, whereas other colleagues of their harass their families in another state or they even dare to revenge when it is not from “the powers that be”

INVESTIGATION: Inside Nigeria’s Ruthless Human Trafficking Mafia

Six out of 10 people who are trafficked to the West are Nigerians. PREMIUM TIMES investigative reporter, Tobore Ovuorie, was motivated by years of research into the plight of trafficked women in the country, as well as the loss of a friend, to go undercover in a multi-billion dollar criminal enterprise. She emerged, bruised and beaten but thankfully alive, after witnessing orgies, big money deals in jute bags, police-supervised pickpocketing, beatings and even murder. This is her story.

We are 10 at the boot camp: Adesuwa, Isoken, Lizzy, Mairo, Adamu, Ini, Tessy, Omai, Sammy and I. We have travelled together in a 14 seater bus from Lagos, hoping to arrive in Italy soon. We are eager to get to the ‘next level’ as it is called: from local prostitution to hopefully earning big bucks abroad. But first, it turns out, we have to pass through ‘training’ in this massive secluded compound guarded by armed military men, far from any other human being, somewhere in the thick bushes outside Ikorodu, a suburb of Lagos. Our trafficker, Mama Caro, welcomes us in flawless English, telling us how lucky and special we are; then she ushers us to a room where we are to sleep on the floor without any dinner.

I had not expected this. We had exercised, through a risk analysis role play, in advance: my paper PREMIUM TIMES, and our partners on the project, a colleague–Reece Adanwenon– in the Republic of Benin, and ZAM Chronicle in Amsterdam. We had put in place contacts, emergency phone numbers, safe houses, emergency money accounts. We had made transport and extraction arrangements. Ms. Reece is waiting in Cotonou, 100 kilometers to the West in neighbouring Benin, to pick me up from an agreed meeting place. But we hadn’t foreseen that there was to be another stop first: this isolated, guarded camp in the middle of nowhere. It dawns on me that we could be in big trouble.

“Our trafficker, Mama Caro, welcomes us in flawless English, telling us how lucky and special we are; then she ushers us to a room where we are to sleep on the floor without any dinner.”

LASU, Updates after the plenary session

LASU

Following the violence that erupted in the Lagos State University, LASU, Lagos State House of Assembly, has directed the school management to re-open the registration portal for the over 1,292 students, to complete their registration exercise.

Meanwhile, the acting president of the Lagos State University (LASU) Student Union Government (SUG), Miss Mojirade Hassan said that the protest embarked upon by the students to register their displeasure over the closure of the registration portal, was hijacked by unknown hoodlums.

This came barely 24 hours after the students went on rampage, destroying the school’s property, burning tyres on the expressway and disrupting the second semester examinations of the 2012/2013 academic session.

The House gave the directive after a six-hour plenary session in which each of the parties-the school management and the students- addressed the law makers.

Nigeria House of Fraud, Where Footballers deceive the world with doctored age

By Olajide Fashikun

Nigeria has cheated again! We can reveal with authority that the nation’s winning U-17 national team is composed of some overaged players who were officially and deliberately helped to reduce their ages to enable the nation to win at all costs so as to shore up the records of the goons in the administration of football in the country. The latest revelation amongst those we have investigated is thee numero uno in the goal post, Dele Alampasu. For free, as at when the U-17 championship was being played in the United Arab Emirate (UAE), the goalkeeper was already 20 years of age.The Sun newpaper of 19th January 2014 on its page 16 has a story titled: “Golden Eaglets goalkeeper, Dele Alampasu’s father, bids farewell to poverty; Me, Okada rider? Never again! He says.” The report authored by the authoritative Omololu Kassim written is suave silky skilful prose makes sweet reading.

Tomi, Alampasu’s father according to the report, “is fondly called Baba Dele in Itoki district, Ogun state, had lived a wretched life ever since he arrived there in 1993, the same year that Dele Alampasu was born. The jubilant father told this reporter that Dele was christened ‘Dokunanyan’ a name in Egun dialect which means tomorrow will be better for me.’

I can’t go back to my school because of shame –14-year-old girl abused, impregnated by neighbour

Blessing

There were about 10 other mothers with their newborns placed in baby cots beside their beds in the post-natal ward of the Igando General Hospital, Lagos. But here, Blessing Victor (not real name) stood out. In fact, rather than focus attention on their own relations, many of the visitors directed their gaze at Victor’s corner. The reason was obvious.

She was just a kid, a 14-year-old girl. What she was doing as this correspondent walked in was indeed something that would attract attention from wandering eyes around the ward.

She stretched out her baby on the bed. Armed with a wad of cotton wool and a bottle of a dressing solution, the young mother was cleaning the baby’s umbilical opening that was cut less than 24 hours earlier.

Blessing’s mother, who walked in with our correspondent, was alarmed somewhat and asked why she was doing that without asking for permission.

“The nurses have taught me how to do it,” the girl said.

Jonathan’s desperation to Rule in 2015 and the manhunt for opposing opponents

Jonathan and Abacha

Goodluck Jonathan has assumed a tyrannical crescendo and moving the apparatus of state against his perceived enemies, while protecting his own kinsmen who are renowned for criminal activities and threats, The Clarkes and the Asari Dokubos of this world have made damaging statements without any hunts, it has become so clear that the boyish President of Nigeria is desperate to use power in an oppressive manner like his predecessor, Abacha to intimidate and put his enemies behind bars

Mallam Nasir el Rufai

When Asari Dokubo  said blood will flow in 2015 if President Jonathan is not re-elected, It was not a problem to the Nigerian oppressor  Is Dokubo-asari free to say this because he is from South South and President Jonathan is also from South South? In failing to arrest or invite Dokubo-asari is the SSS playing President Jonathan's script by shielding Dokubo-asari? Is this why President Jonathan helped Dokubo-asari out of police detention in Benin Republic as claimed in some quarters? The SSS has clearly shown its partisanship in failing to even invite Dokubo-asari. The SSS partisanship may actually be the reason why violence will ensue in 2015 for everyone is watching every action by SSS and Jonathan.

Reports has it that,

 The State Security Service, SSS, has finally secured a warrant of arrest for the Deputy National Secretary of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Nasir El-Rufai, and has now launched a manhunt for him, the spokesperson for the agency has said.

This is even as armed operatives of the Service again stormed a second house in Abuja believed to belong to the former minister in their desperate bid to arrest him.

They had earlier in the afternoon invaded his first house in the Maitama District of the nation’s capital, but could not find him as he had reportedly gone to pick his children from school. They were said to have tried to force their way in to arrest the former minister.

In the latest siege on another property, also in the Maitama District, the operatives were said to have beaten up some private guards for refusing them entry.

The spokesperson of the SSS, Marylyn Ogar, confirmed that the operatives visited Mr. El-Rufai’s second house to arrest him, but denied that anyone was beaten.

“I hate cheap blackmail,” Ms. Ogar told PREMIUM TIMES on telephone. “We went to the first place, nobody was beaten up. How will we go to the second place and beat people up?”

She explained that the SSS got an arrest warrant demanded by Mr. El-Rufai, but could not find him to personally serve him the document.

“We extended a friendly invitation to him,” the SSS spokesperson said. “He was invited honourably to come and make some explanations about the comments attributed to him.

“He said he wanted an arrest warrant. We have now obtained that from a competent court and we are wondering why he is running.

“We want to serve it on him. Or is there any Nigerian that is above the law?

“The president has said his ambition is not worth any Nigerian’s blood. So why will anyone else be making provocative statements?”

Another Ahmed Deedat , The never ending controversies of the Book and the WAY

The Imam of the Federal College of Technology, Yaba Mosque, Imam Saeed Salmon has stated that Islam also believes in the second coming of Jesus Christ.

He added that any Muslim who does not believe in the second coming of Christ, is not a true follower of Prophet Muhammed.

The Muslim cleric who made this known during a special lecture held at the Lagos Central Mosque, said, Jesus was a messenger of God and would still return to a mosque in Damascus.

“The second coming of Jesus Christ is a doctrine that every Muslim must believe. The teachings of prophet Muhammad talks extensively about this.

The Qua’ ran Chapter 4:157-159 teaches this, but the teachings of Islam does not support that Jesus was killed or resurrected, rather, he was raised by Almighty Allah to his majesty.”

Hong Kong billionaire doubles reward for any man who can make lesbian daughter straight

Cecil Chao

Hong Kong billionaire Cecil Chao, has offered a whooping $130million to any man who can sweep his lesbian daughter, Gigi Chao (right) off her feet, marry her and give him grandchildren. Gigi ran away with her female lover sometime last year in France. 

The billionaire businessman who made headline in Sept 2012 when he offered a reward of $65million to any man who can take his daughter off her female lover, has reportedly upped the money to $130million after all prospective suitors failed to win his daughter's heart. And according to reports, many men tried. His first offer reportedly attracted more more 20,000 unsuccessful suitors. I'm sure some of them were Nigerians. 

 

In a recent interview with Financial Times, Mr Chao said:

President Goodluck Jonathan has lost his moral compass, has no respect for human rights

Femi Fani Kayode

"It has been brought to my attention that heavily armed operatives of the SSS have stormed the home of my friend and brother Mallam Nasir El Rufai. What was his crime? He stated the obvious and told the truth- namely that if the Presidential elections are rigged in 2015 by the ruling PDP the people would rise up and there would be terrible violence and colossal casualties. 

Fame can buy Love; An Older Ghanaian Actress wants a Vancouver based midfielder desperately

Khareema Aguiar & Gershon Koffie

Ghanaian actress, Khareema Aguiar, has finally confessed she is dating 22-year-old, Gershon Koffie, a Canada-based Ghanaian midfielder who plays for White Caps in Vancouver. The revelation follows Tuesday’s report that the ‘Checkmate’ actress had refused to clear the air on her relationship with Gershon, saying her career should be talked about and not her love life.

The beautiful actress, who seemed angry by commentaries that followed the report, made a u-turn yesterday and said she had nothing to hide about her love relationship with Gershon.

“Ghanaians think I am denying him, no I’m not denying him, he is my boyfriend and I love him very much, people should let us be. I have heard comments saying because I have issues so I am trying to be smart by not coming out open. Now I am out here speaking so you all should listen and listen good, Gershon is very happy with me and I am extremely happy with him.

We are friends, he is my confidant and my number one fan, so I am not denying him…but there are kids out there who need support and much attention must be given to them.  I have now spoken and that’s what it is, I love my man, so now leave us alone and give the aged some attention and care, they need it,” she said.

Asked how they met and how long they have been dating, Khareema revealed that, “Our meeting was timely and God’s intervention. He is the one I have been searching for all this while and I am the one he has been scouting for, so our meeting is timely. We have been dating for some time now but really how long we have been dating is irrelevant at this point, but trust me every minute we spend together is like a year together. So trust me if that’s anything to go by, then I guess we have been dating for a decade.”

Lasu rages again, School disrupted by fee crisis

"Hundreds of Lagos State University (LASU) students protesting a dispute over schools fees halted second semester examinations today.  

The dispute involves schools fees the students were being asked to pay in the amount Naira 250,000 - 350,000.  When a handful of students couldn't find the fees as early as the schools demanded, students said the Vice Chancellor, Mr. John Obafunwa, was unsympathetic and closed the University portal against late registration for the examination.  

The students appealed the decision through the Student Union but the Vice Chancellor said the late registrants would not participate in examinations.

A student leader told Sahareporters the banks were still receiving payments from the students even after the registration portal had been closed, and they thought the management would re-open the portal for them to do their registration.

The heartless Nigerian politician provides double for their health than the masses they claim to serve

Jona-medical check up

The federal government will this year pump more cash into constructing an elite wing of the presidential clinic in Abuja where only a few big and mighty will receive attention, a spending that dwarfs the total funds allocated by government for entire developmental projects of two federal university teaching hospitals.

Under the proposed 2014 budget laid to the National Assembly last December, the “Construction of a VIP Wing at the State House Clinic will cost N705 million.”

That amount surpasses the government’s budgeted cost for the building of new wards (buildings), laboratories and all other developmental projects in two university teaching hospitals.

For instance, the University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital and the University of Benin Teaching Hospital, have been allocated a total of N662 million for capital expenditure this year.

What Students Remember Most About Teachers

"Dear Young Teacher Down the Hall, by Lori Gard

I saw you as you rushed passed me in the lunch room. Urgent. In a hurry to catch a bite before the final bell would ring calling all the students back inside. I noticed that your eyes showed tension. There were faint creases in your forehead. And I asked you how your day was going and you sighed.

"Oh, fine," you replied.

But I knew it was anything but fine. I noticed that the stress was getting to you. I could tell that the pressure was rising. And I looked at you and made an intentional decision to stop you right then and there. To ask you how things were really going. Was it that I saw in you a glimpse of myself that made me take the moment?

You told me how busy you were, how much there was to do. How little time there was to get it all done. I listened. And then I told you this:

I told you to remember that at the end of the day, it's not about the lesson plan. It's not about the fancy stuff we teachers make -- the crafts we do, the stories we read, the papers we laminate. No, that's not really it. That's not what matters most.

Bart police officer Tom Smith shot and killed by colleague

Sgt Tom Smit

Police are investigating why a San Francisco-area transport police officer shot and killed a colleague during a search of a suspect's apartment.

Sgt Tom Smith, 42, was the first officer of the Bay Area Rapid Transit (Bart) police to be killed in the line of duty in the force's 42-year history.

He was killed on Tuesday as a squad of officers searched the home of a robbery suspect who was already in custody. Investigators say Sgt Smith was shot accidentally.

Sgt Smith is survived by his wife, also a Bart officer, and a six-year-old daughter.

Bart is a commuter rail line that serves the San Francisco Bay area in northern California.

In a joint statement, Bart's police chief Kenton Rainey and general manager Grace Crunican said, "The entire Bart organization is deeply saddened by this tragic event."

Mr Rainey did not name the officer who shot Sgt Smith, but said he was "extremely upset".

"We want to give him and his family a chance to come to grips with what's going on and what's happening," he told reporters.
