| NUT ask teachers to ignore September 22nd resumption date Posted: 16 Sep 2014 12:41 PM PDT  Speaking today to journalists in Abuja, the NUT National President, Comrade Micheal Olukoya, said teachers should only resume if the government provides them with necessary preventive & protective gadgets on Ebola virus. Continue... NUT president Olukoya said; "Where the federal government insists on the 22nd September, 2014, date in spite of the wise counsel, the union will rather direct teachers to resume schools whenever they are sufficiently trained and their schools have been provided with the necessary preventive and protective gadgets. For the avoidance of doubt, the teachers have this day, resolved to resume classes in obedience to the federal government directive, in states where teachers have been trained to handle any outbreak and all the required preventive and protective gadgets such as hand gloves, sanitizers, infra-red thermometers, running water and soaps have been provided as directed by federal government of Nigeria. In states where the training has not been done and necessary safeguarding gadgets not provided, teachers shall continue to remain at home until their state governments respond positively or the union directs them to the contrary". | ||||||

| Goldberg Benefits From Osun Osogbo Festival Sponsorship Posted: 16 Sep 2014 07:28 AM PDT  The partnership between most sought after beer brand, Goldberg lager, manufactured by Nigerian Breweries Plc. & the popular Osun Osogbo festival may be yielding bountiful benefits for the brand. Goldberg, which identifies with the tradition of the people, was the official beer of the 2014 edition of the Osun Osogbo festival.  The role of the beer brand, which contributed to the success of this year's edition of the festival, received commendations from the chief cultural custodian and traditional ruler, His Royal Majesty, Oba JimohOyetunjiOlanipekunLarooye II, the Ataoja of Osogboland. He spoke at the official commissioning of the 21-day Goldberg beer village, which was built by the brand as part of its support towards the success of the Osun Osogbo Festival. The Ataoja of Osogbo was represented at the event by Chief Emmanuel Ojo, the IketaBalogun of Osogboland who also headed the Osun Osogbo festival committee. Other distinguished guests who were part of the traditional ruler's entourage at the event were Alhaji Yusuf Folorunsho, Secretary of the festival and Ayo Olumokun the Chief Festival Consultant. Chief Emmanuel Ojo, on behalf of the traditional ruler, appreciated Nigerian Breweries Plc. for the company's continued support and prayed that the Goldberg brand would continue to soar in sales Mr. Joseph Bodunrin, Regional Business Manager, Nigerian Breweries Plc., also spoke at the official commissioning of Goldberg's beer village. He announced that the beer brand's market share has continued to rise as a result of its affiliation with the festival, regarded as one of the most prominent celebrations of culture and heritage in Western Nigeria. The Regional Business Manager said: "Goldberg's market share has continued to increase in Osogbo and its environs and we attribute this to the brand's sponsorship of this great festival." According to him, Goldberg became one of the brands of Nigerian Breweries Plc., after the company acquired another brewing company; adding that the Osun Oshogbo festival was identified as one of the as one of the platforms to market the product. Mr. Bodunrin added: "I am proud to say that Goldberg has been widely accepted by the people of Osun even though this is only the second year of Goldberg's sponsorship of Osun Osogbo festival. Goldberg took over sponsorship from another beer brand from the Nigerian Breweries Plc. stable. The influence of the Osun Osogbo festival transcends the Osun people as it attracts tourists from the different countries of the world. We believe that with this, Goldberg's popularity will even soar among the citizens of the various nationalities that visit Osogbo during the period of the festival." Bodunrin also thanked the retailers of Nigerian Breweries products as well as the consumers; whom he described as the back bone of the company. Visitors to the Goldberg beer village were treated to the best of indigenous music as fuji acts like St. Janet, a popular Fuji musician and Antenna, the inaugural winner of the 'Fuji To Bad'Goldberg activation entertained them. Some lucky consumers of the beer brand also carted home exciting gifts courtesy of raffle draws conducted by Goldberg to reward them for patronage. Some of the gift items which were won via a raffle draw were TV sets, home theatres, generators, bags of rice, among others. The highlight of the celebrations of 2014 edition of the Osun Osogbo Festival was the procession to the Osun Grove. Though Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola, the executive governor of Osun State was unavoidably absent, he sent in a goodwill message. He described the festival as the mother of all festivals which draws crowds from all over the world thereby placing the state on the global tourism and cultural map. He said: "What we are celebrating is an integral part of our culture and our culture defines who we are. Osun Osogbo is also our flagship tourist attraction. Coupled with the Osun Grove, which is already a UNESCO heritage site, we are firmly planted in the tourism map of the world. We have been working to develop other tourist sites in the state and we now have a master plan. We intend to develop it and make tourism one of the planks of economic development in the state. Our greater plan is to bring at least one million Yorubas in the Diaspora to attend the Osun Osogbo festival every year. This will generate jobs in tour guides, accommodation, arts and crafts and construction, among others." In his address, Oba JimohOyetunjiOlanipekunLarooye II, the Ataoja of Osogboland said: "The Osun Osogbo Festival has continued to endear itself to many people across the globe and has been adjudged as the only festival that has consistently witnessed the largest turnout of visitors and participants among all known festivals in Nigeria. It is one of the festivals that has made it possible to meet old friends and relations who normally come together to felicitate the Osogbo community." He also thanked the state government forits support for the festival through the construction of a permanent and befitting presentation pavilion; encouragement of many visitors to participate in the festival through the provision of free rail transportation to and from Lagos State and beautification of the grove; among other activities.             | ||||||

| Graphic pics: Generator fumes kill man, wife & 3 children in Ikorodu Posted: 16 Sep 2014 06:27 AM PDT  When the family failed to come out late Friday morning, a neighbour peeped through their window, saw bodies, and alerted others. They broke down the door to discover the horror. And when I say horror, I mean horror. The photos are really graphic so please be warned. Residents of the community are blaming the family's deaths on lack of power in the area. They claim the last time they had light was 3 years ago, that every house in the area uses a generator. They said they have called on the government many times to help them with light but their efforts have yielded no fruit. See the pics after the cut.. *warning - graphic content* People need to be educated about the dangers of generator fumes...

He was very protective of his phone, he wouldn't let me put pictures of me and him on social networks, he deleted comments I made about us - looking back, he was very shady.' Becky said she was at Charlie's house the night before he traveled on holiday and saw a message from a girl on his phone saying 'I will meet you later'.

Musa Uba, a resident of Husra village in Michika LGA which is one of the villages that came under heavy attack said able-bodied young men were forcefully converted into the sect after recruitment efforts through preaching failed to attract volunteers. "They conducted preaching sessions to attract converts to their sect but people only listened out of fear.

| The 12 soldiers who attacked their GOC in Maiduguri have been sentenced to death Posted: 16 Sep 2014 03:23 AM PDT  13 out of the 18 soldiers standing trial for participating in the mutiny (revolt action) against their General Officer Commanding, Maj. Gen. Ahmed Mohammed at the newly created 7 Division of the Nigerian Army in Maiduguri on May 12th have been sentenced to death by a military court that sat in Abuja yesterday night September 15th. Five others were discharged and acquitted while one was jailed for 28 days with hard labor. Choi, they should temper justice with mercy biko o. Continue The soldiers had on May 14th revolted against poor remuneration and lack of sophisticated weapons to fight Boko Haram. On that particular day, the soldiers lost their cool after seeing the corpse of some of their colleagues killed by Boko Haram men. They immediately opened fire on their GOC, who luckily escaped unhurt. The President of the Court Martial (military court), Maj. Gen. C.C. Okonkwo, while delivering his judgement said the 12 soldiers were found guilty of criminal conspiracy, mutiny, attempt to commit murder (shooting at the vehicle of the GOC); insubordination to a particular order; insubordination and false accusation. The legal team of the convicts pleaded with the court martial to be lenient and temper justice with mercy stating that some of the men convicted were the sole providers of their families. One of the convict is said to be the only child of his 80 year old mother while another is said to be the father of a 5-month old baby. The legal team argued that giving them maximum sentence would do more harm than good, adding that it would increase the agony of their dependants. Other members of the court are: Col. TS Nurseman, Col. TO Olowomeye, Col. IG Lassa, Lt.Col. JK Feboke, Lt. Col. CR Nnebeife, Major I Yusuf, Major TA Yakubu and Major AE Martins. Lt. Col. AA Audu and Lt. Col.

| Yay! Finally bought my brand new 2014 Range Rover (see photos) Posted: 16 Sep 2014 04:36 AM PDT  So he and I went to a car company in Victoria Island yesterday and bought this brand new 2014 Range Rover Sport Supercharged. I bought it for N24million. Yeah, I know! Its a lot of money to spend on a car but I've been wanting this car since it came out...so...lol. But I swear I've been feeling so guilty since I bought it. I keep telling myself 'do you know how many lives you would have changed with N24million?" A lot, I know...but my life is important too na, abi? Lol. Anyway, to make myself feel better, the September LIB giveaway will be bigger than ever...and I'm more determined now to start my #I'dratherbeselfmade campaign where I will mentor and help some young girls start their own businesses. Anyway continue to see more photos...            And yep, I still have my other cars...my 2008 Toyota Camry and 2011 Infinity FX 35. #Biggirlthingz. lol.  Now there's something I want to say to all the young girls reading this. There's absolutely nothing wrong with a man buying you things, but always remember that if you believe in yourselves and your dreams, you work hard and stay focused, there's absolutely nothing you can't buy for yourself. I'm not only buying myself cars that I want, I'm in the process of buying my own house, with my own money. I made it on my own, in my own way and on my own terms. If anybody ever tells you that the only way you can make it in life is by laying on your back, the person lied to you. You don't have to do that. You shouldn't do that. You are strong, you are brave, you have been blessed with a talent, find yourself, believe in yourself, push yourself...and never give up. No money is sweeter than your own money, trust me. You can do it. Yes, you! You can do it. Just be patient, pay attention and work your butt off. It's not easy trust me...if you think I had success overnight, you thought wrong. November this year will make it eight years that I've been blogging. Every single day! Before then I was a model, I was a model manager, I was an events planner, I was a columnist, I wrote a book, then I became a blogger. I put my hands in so many things because I was determined to make it in life. Finally one paid off - blogging. I'm not better than you, if I can make it, so can you! Just never think the only option you have is men. YOU are an option and once you go to God and tell Him what you want to do and He sees that you are serious, He will lead you, He will guide you and He will make all your dreams come true. Think about it, the people who are successful in life don't have two heads. Why can't you be one of them? You really can be. It's up to you. Finally, I will soon start my 'I Will Rather Be Self Made' campaign where I will mentor young girls and also help some of you start your own small scale businesses by financing it...so look out for that. I will make an announcement on this soon. Alright guys, going to bed. Cheers and thanks for everything. YOU guys changed my life. Thank you | ||||||
