Kanye West accuses new wife Kim Kardashian of hoarding?

Posted: 26 Jun 2014 07:51 AM PDT

According to new reports, Kim and Kanye are butting heads over Kim's obsessive compulsive desire to hoard things…

Sources tell Dish Nation,
"Kim rents two storage lockers and had two rooms in her old house reserved for piles of clothes and shoes she never wears."
"She also keeps years of backdated magazine and newspaper clippings that she's been mentioned in. Kanye doesn't mind that Kim is so self-involved; he just wishes she was more organized about it. He told her to scan it onto a hard drive and to toss the paper trail
"They had their first major post-wedding fight after Kanye threw out boxes of Kim's hoarded items because Kanye says Kim's crap is wrecking his design aesthetic."
"They don't see eye to eye on this topic. Kim was furious after Kanye told her she should go on a show like 'Hoarders.' He warned Kim that he can't live with her if she continues to stockpile useless goods."
Who believes this story? She's confessed on her reality show that she's a hoarder though.

Somewhere Down The Line hits cinema June 29

Posted: 26 Jun 2014 06:58 AM PDT

One of the most anticipated movies in the last three months, Somewhere Down the Line, will finally premiere in grand style at the Silverbird, Ikeja City Mall come Sunday, June 29, 2014

The movie which is produced by fast rising actress, winner of the 2011 Next Movie Star, Tamara Eteimo, is coming under the stables of Shola Fajobi's Origin 8 Formats Limited. Since announcing his intentions to delve into film production and distribution early this year, 'Somewhere Down the line', is his first production. Continue..
 
His distribution company, E-Force is also fully prepared to undertake the seemingly arduous task of distributing the thriller to all nooks and crannies of Nigeria.
 
According to Shola, who is fondly called Solar, "I've not been doing much with Nollywood directly in the past but because of the interest most of my clients are beginning to show in Nollywood, I decided I would throw my business acumen, which obviously is not in doubt, into those two areas. This year, I have said I would produce 50movies. And so far so good, I have produced 12movies and certainly before the end of the year, I would have produced all 50movies. Somewhere Down the Line is actually one of our first film production, after this, at least we shall be releasing 4movies every month under my stable. Definitely not all the movies will go to the cinema, not all will be premiered. Some will go to the cinema and some will go straight into DVD".
Unlike the regular movie premiere, Shola Fajobi in a bid to up the ante got one of the leading consumer product company, Procter & Gamble, to sponsors the movie and the premiere which promises to be star studded.
Tamara, the lead character in Wale Adenuga's Superstory- Itohan, on her own part, combines an amazing cast of talented Nollywood actors that excites crowd as well as fresh faces, most of who were housemates with her at the Next Movie Star. Bukky Wright, Yemi Blaq, Rachel Oniga and Mary Lazarus,  Yinka Ayelokun, Adetomiwa Kukoyi, Yinka Salau, kingsley Ogboso and others.
Speaking on her cinema debut, this will be her first production and she's optimistic it will be appealing to movie buffs and pundits alike. "In as much as it's my first, I tried my best to make it a success. A movie has to be appealing to the audience and once it gets a good reception, believe me; it will stay long at the cinema. I'm not saying the movie is perfect but it is close to perfect. Nobody will watch Somewhere down the lineand say it's a stupid film. They will connect to it one way or the other".
 
The movie tells the story of a couple of a couple, Tolu and Goke who, eight years into their marriage, remain childless. They choose the path of IVF but it leads them down an emotional destination, causing more sorrow than joy.
The couple agrees on surrogacy but it turns out that Grace, the surrogate becomes emotionally attached, 'Somewhere Down the Line' and does not want to part with the foetus in her womb. 
 
For the red carpet of Somewhere Down the Line, Excite On TV will lead other TV stations to cover the event. Afterwards, a week from when it makes it cinematic debut, there will be campus screening across five selected Nigerian campuses. They include University of Lagos, Obafemi Awolowo University, Niger Delta University, University of Port-Harcourt and University of Ibadan.
According to the producer, the DVD copy will be made available to students at the sum of N500. The DVD which will be sold to them becomes their ticket to get access into the various halls for the screening.

OAU eLearning Solution wows participants at eLearning Africa 2014 Conference

Posted: 26 Jun 2014 05:46 AM PDT

In May 2014, Kampala the Ugandan capital played host to the 9th edition of the largest gathering of eLearning professionals on the continent when the eLearning Africa 2014 conference held under the title "Opening frontiers to the future".

The main focus of the eLearning Africa conference was to discuss the latest innovations, ideas, opportunities and challenges of using electronic media together with information and communication technologies (ICT) to drive development and education. Continue...





Nigeria took center stage when the OAU eLearning solution was exhibited to the over 1,000 participants from 68 countries across Africa and the world in attendance at the event.

The Center for Distance Learning, Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife in April 2014 launched the first eLearning solution of its kind in Africa. This eLearning solution is projected to increase the University's student base drastically and give more than 50,000 people the opportunity to 

receive certified undergraduate and post-graduate degrees each year.
What is eLearning? - eLearning is learning conducted through electronic media, such as laptops, tablet devices and mobile phones, typically on the internet. With e-learning, learning has moved beyond the 4 walls of the classroom to your home, office, car and any location you may be.

Why OAU embraced eLearning? – According to the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) in Nigeria, a total of 1,629,102 candidates applied to sit for the Paper Pencil Test (PPT), while 15,008 candidates applied for the Dual Based Test, bringing the number of candidates that sat for the 2013 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME)to 1,644,110. Out of this number, there is space for only 500,000 students to be admitted, with the implication that over 1million candidates were denied admission. This is the category of candidates OAU hopes to give an opportunity to get a University degree. You can get admission into OAU today if that is your desire via the newly launched OAU eLearning degree program which is officially approved by the National Universities Commissions (NUC).

Upon admission, each student will be provided with a customized tablet device, the 'Vigitab'; this would allow them watch video lectures, interact with their lecturers and classmates, download and upload assignments, and have access to an endless collection of books from the e-Library.The 'Vigitab' is built specifically for Africa and its peculiar needs – power supply and data access. It has incredible battery power and are designed to allow access to lectures with or without internet provision so that no matter where you are, LEARNING NEVER STOPS!

Following the official approval by NUC, OAU-CDL has now begun receiving applications for the 2013/2014 academic session in four B.Sc. Degree programs: Accounting, Economics Education, Social Studies Education, and Nursing.


Lectures are delivered by the same Lecturers teaching the on-campus students, using the same lecture materials. An eCommunity of Lecturers, Tutors and Students ensures that a higher level of interaction is achieved since members are always within reach 24/7. Assignments are submitted online, while practical sessions and examinations are taken on Campus. Successful students are awarded the same certificate as the on-Campus students. 

On the OAU eLearning platform, the admission process is fully automated, from application to payment to registration and lectures. It is the eLearning Revolution where learning is brought to the comfort of your room or office space. For more details visit http://online.oaucdl.edu.ng
Application is strictly online and closes soon.

Lagos explosion caused by fuel-laden tanker, not bomb - Police

Posted: 26 Jun 2014 05:07 AM PDT

The Lagos State Police command has refuted claims that the explosion that happened last night at Creek road in Apapa Lagos was caused by a bomb saying it was caused by a tanker carrying petrol
 
 Force Public Relations officer, Ngozi Braide explains
"There is nothing whatsoever suggesting that it was a bomb explosion. It was a tanker loaded with fuel that burst into flames. Policemen are on ground there now and we cannot yet ascertain the casualty figures. But everything is under control," she said.
In a contradictory statement, Ibrahim Farinloye, the Spokesperson for the National Emergency Management Agency, NEMA South-West said the cause of the fire was as a result of a gas cylinder explosion. See more photos from the incident after the cut...


"People were reported to be filling gas into the cylinder before it exploded. The incident happened within Folawiyo Energy Premises but they did not allow fire men into their premises at all" Mr. Farinloye said in a text message to Premiumtimes.

Posted: 26 Jun 2014 04:42 AM PDT

Dozens of suspected members of Boko Haram sect on Tuesday June 24th carried out a deadly attack on a military post in Bulabulin Ngaura in Damboa LGA of Borno killing 16 soldiers, Punch reports.
 
According to one of the soldiers who escaped and spoke on anonymity to journalists, he said the sect men came in 30 vehicles mounted with anti-aircraft guns, caught them unawares and subdued them
"We were totally subdued by the insurgents. Some of my colleagues were abducted and many others escaped with bullet wounds. Dozens of Boko Haram insurgents stormed our checkpoint at Bulabulin on Tuesday night. The terrorists came in a convoy of over 30 vehicles, mounted with Anti Aircraft guns (AA). I was at the checkpoint when the terrorists came, we tried our best but they had advantage over us. They had AA and we had Ak47 rifles that are not fully loaded. When we realized that they had taken over the place, some of us escaped to Maiduguri and other places but many could not make it. As I am talking to you, 16 bodies of our colleagues have been brought to Maiduguri, this is apart from those that sustained injuries and many others that are missing." he said

Chris Brown rejects plea deal in D.C case, headed for trial

Posted: 26 Jun 2014 02:08 AM PDT

Chris Brown has tasted jail and no longer seems afraid of it. He was in Washington D.C yesterday for his assault trial and rejected a plea deal with prosecutors...and now he's headed for trial.

TMZ reports that Chris was close to copping a plea but the deal fell apart because the prosecutor and Chris' lawyer couldn't agree on a statement of fact about the events leading to the alleged assault.
Chris has always denied assaulting a fan in 2013 outside a hotel in D.C. If he'd pled guilty, he would not have to serve any additional time in jail. Now that he's going to trial, jail time is on the line again. His bodyguard has already been convicted of the assault. A trial date has been set for September.

Dear LIB readers: How do I avoid attending my uncle's church?

Posted: 26 Jun 2014 02:03 AM PDT

From a female LIB reader
I am in my final year in the university and am staying with my aunt (my mum's younger sister) whose husband is a Pastor of his own church with 18 members. I am from a Conservative Baptist family and I'm not cool with his Pentecostal way of doing things. My question is this; do I have to attend his church? If no how do I tell them without offending them?

Ritualists’ den owned by a pastor uncovered in Lagos, 8 kidnapped victims rescued

Posted: 26 Jun 2014 12:49 AM PDT

A ritualist den owned by one pastor Ernest Nwankwo, the General Overseer of Holy Family Ministry a.k.a House of Mercy was yesterday June 25th uncovered at Ogolonto area in Ikorodu, Lagos, with 8 victims rescued.

According to Vanguard, the den was discovered after a failed attempt by a woman identified as Mrs Rosemary Chukwu, a member of Pastor Nwankwo's church, to kidnap her neighbor's 7 year old son, Emeka Emmanuel to the den for rituals.

Sources in the area said around 6.30 am yesterday, Mrs Chukwu lured the little boy who was on his way to fetch water from a well down the road and took him to her house where she locked him in the toilet. To keep her neighbors from hearing the little boy's screams for help, Chukwu then instructed her own children to begin a prayer session which they did, shouting on top of their voices. Continue...
Trouble however started when the boy's mother who stays four buildings from Mrs Chukwu raised alarm after she could not find her son. A search for the young boy began which Mrs Chukwu also partook in. Minutes into the search, Mrs Chukwu was said to have excused herself, went into her house and then came out with a box on her head, saying she was travelling. Suspecting foul play, some of the area boys instructed her to put down the suitcase which was opened and the unconscious body of the 7 year old boy was discovered.

A resident of the area, Oyetoye Gbemi who spoke with Vanguard said the area boys descended on her and she confessed it was her pastor who sent her
"She told us she was travelling to the village. But one of the area boys who was among the search party, ordered his colleagues to search the box. Immediately she heard that, she flung the box away and took to her heels. We all suspected something was amiss. When the box was opened, Emmanuel was found inside, half dead. The area boys descended on her and stripped her naked. On interrogation, she said her pastor, the General Overseer of Holy Family Ministry a.k.a House of Mercy, asked her to bring the boy. The area boys followed her to 319, Lagos Road, Ikorodu, where the church is situated, where they saw her pastor waiting for her. But on sighting the crowd, he took to his heels. But for the arrival of Policemen from Owutu division, the woman would have been lynched. The angry mob also attempted to set the church ablaze but were also prevented by the policemen. They, however, succeeded in torching some parts of the property." he said
In the process of chasing the fleeing Pastor and burning some part of the church building, area boys forced open a door to a building at 7, Oshodi Street, which was directly at the back of the church building and owned by Pastor Ernest. To everyone's amazement, men and women, eight in number, chained and looking frail were found in the building. The captives upon interrogation said they were kidnapped from various places like Ogun, Anambra, Bayelsa and Oyo states. One of the captives, a 50 year old woman said she was kidnapped while returning from a night vigil. One of the rescued victim, 52 year old man pictured above without a shirt said he was a commercial bus driver and was kidnapped two years ago.

Residents in the area said the building owned by the pastor had always been under suspicion as no one ever saw anyone coming out or going in during the day. They said most of the activities carried out in the building is usually done at night.
Police sources confirmed the arrest of Mrs Chukwu while her pastor is currently on the run.

Pics: Michael Babatunde breaks arm after blocking shot from Onazi

We saw 22 year old Super Eagles midfielder Michael Babatunde taken off in the second half of yesterday's game against Argentina with his arm in a cast but some of us didn't really know it was that serious. It kinda is. A scan after the match showed that he literally broke his arm after being hit by a fierce shot from Ogenyi Onazi. (see pic on the left). He's been ruled out of the 2014 World Cup.

Onazi was aiming to score a goal with the long-range shot but the ball cannoned into Babatunde's arm. The video of the incident is kinda graphic..but you've seen worse, so check on it after the  cut...
