“Abubakar Shekau” killed was one Bashir Mohammed - SR Posted: 22 Sep 2014 12:53 PM PDT A Nigerian military intelligence source has told SaharaReporters that the top Boko Haram figure killed in a recent operation was one Bashir Mohammed, leader of the Islamist sect's Uye camp. Cameroonian authorities yesterday released a photo of a dead man they identified as Abubakar Shekau, the loquacious and attention-seeking leader of the terrorist group that has launched deadly strikes in Nigeria's northeast zone as well as Cameroon. The Nigerian intelligence source told SaharaReporters that Nigerian soldiers, not Cameroonian troops, had killed Mr. Bashir last Friday in a fierce battle against Boko Haram insurgents in Konduga, Borno State. The late Mr. Bashir, who bore a striking resemblance to Abubakar Shekau and had appeared in a recent video, was killed as he led insurgents who were attempting to capture Konduga and then made a bid to seize Maiduguri, the Borno State capital, as well.Source: Sahara Reporters |

I know it sounds crazy but I don't want to date again ever. I still like to feel pretty. If I got a third breast implant most guys would think that's weird and gross. But I can still feel pretty. I'm starting a reality show called Jasmine's Jugs and my ultimate goal is to get it onto MTV. That's my dream."she wrote on FBJasmine claims she's spent $20,000 on the procedure a few months ago, after struggling to find a doctor who would perform the operation. "I called 50 doctors. It was really hard finding someone that would do it too because they're breaking the code of ethics." she saidShe claims her third breast was made using an implant and skin tissue cut from her abdomen. She said her parents didn't react well when they found out "My mum ran out the door. She won't talk to me. She won't let my sister talk to me. My dad, he really isn't happy. He is kind of ashamed of me but he accepted it." |

Jnr Pope's wife shares his very dramatic proposal to her Posted: 22 Sep 2014 05:17 AM PDT ![]() "Before that fateful day, Esther & I had been talking & she told me that a girl/fan (Ojeah) was coming from London and she already made arrangements on a hotel where she would stay and that my man would be spending a day or two with her at the hotel. I asked Esther how she got the info, she said my man told her hubby and her hubby told her in confidence...but cz of d likeness she has for me, she wouldn't want me fooled/hurt. I was irked, I was hurt, but I was strong enough not to shed a tear." Continue... After further inquiries, Esther told me the girl would be coming 21st Sept. 2013 but my man would join her on 22nd (a day after). I was relieved because I had a wedding to attend on the 21st & I was the maid of honour. On the 20th, my man told me he had something to do in Port Harcourt and would be there for two days. That statement confirmed Esther's words. I still couldn't believe it was happening because I trusted him with my life. I told him he could go and that he should drive safely. On that fateful day 22nd Sept. 2013, I went for service, I wasn't comfy...thoughts kept crawling....thoughts like: what could they be doing now? Hugging, kissing, or prolly strafing....(lol)....before the service was over, I left church and headed for PH. You needed to have seen me. I wore a strong tight, a black dress and a flip flop ready to fight. I got to PH, met with Esther & she took me to the supposed hotel. She said she'd wait at the reception while I go knock on room 101. I did and behold this fair girl came, opened the door and said: Yes, who are you? I pushed the door ready to explode only to find four other people in the room including my man, a bed decorated with scented candles & cute roses. It had the inscription: Say yes! Jnr Pope fell on his knees and said: I'm tired of being on the fast lane. I want you to have my last name and he showed me this beautiful ring...awwwww..I wept uncontrollably.....its one year today.. The couple got married in July 2014 |

I'm very glad to be a part of this and I can tell you confidently that Nigeria is blessed with the most unique talents. We saw variety at the auditions both in Enugu and Lagos. So much so that we had an extremely tough time making our final pick and so had to give a number of talents the opportunity to perform even though they didn't make it to the final 5. Big thumbs up to Amstel Malta for putting this together", he said. Amstel Malta Brand Manager, Hannatu Ageni-Yusuf, expressed thebrand's pleasure at the success of the 2014 edition of Showtime.' This edition of Amstel Malta Showtime has been the most explosive we've ever had and we are very glad as a brand that we decided to do this.

The mentorship sessions were intense and we are confident that this experience will help launch these talents to theright path in their careers", she said.
