| Breaking: Amber Rose files for divorce from Wiz Khalifa Posted: 24 Sep 2014 11:06 AM PDT  Amber Rose has filed for divorce from husband-of-1-year Wiz Khalifa ... and she's gunning for full custody of their kid. In the divorce docs -- obtained by TMZ -- Amber says they split on Monday and cites irreconcilable differences. Amber is asking for full legal and physical custody of their 1-year-old son Sebastian. She's willing to give Wiz visitation. And this is interesting. Amber acknowledges there's a prenup, which you would think would work in Wiz' favor, but she says it's valid ... presumably, she's not challenging it. The docs say the prenup provides spousal support. As for why they split, there's been a buzz over the last few days of infidelity, but there's no mention of it in the papers. We got video of Amber with some guy Tuesday in Bev Hills. Our photog asks her if Wiz is keeping a close eye on Nick Cannon -- there are rumors they've hooked up, but she's mum. Sources connected with the couple say the split is bitter. |
| Photos: Meet more Big Brother Africa Hotshots contestants Posted: 24 Sep 2014 11:04 AM PDT   Malawi - Mr 265 - Age: 23 (left) TV presenter, Mr 265 is single and currently studying Purchasing and Supply Management. He entered Big Brother Hotshotsbecause he always thought he could win it, when he used to watch it. 'It's easy to criticize people on different things, especially when you don't know how it's like being in their shoes,' he says. I have watched Big Brother for a while and I have always told myself I can win the show, I can do better, but I don't know what really goes on. So I have given myself a challenge to now step into the shoes I wasn't wearing before and see how I will walk with them'. Mr 265's favourite food is crispy fried chicken, his favourite book Screw It, Let's Do It and his favourite singer, P.Square. He enjoys watching, CSI Miami, Big Brother Africa and Suits on the small screen, and 300, The Bourne Identity, The Dark Knight Rises and The Italian Job on the big screen. His favourite actors are Dwayne Johnson, Vin Diesel and Robert Downey Jnr. He won't pretend to be someone he's not, to win the grand prize. 'It's very disappointing to get booted out and know that you weren't your real self. I would rather lose the money at the expense of being myself. Then I can say I tried my level best. Everybody has his own morals,' says Mr 265. Asked about his feelings on knowing that the continent's eyes will be glued to their screens 24/7, he says he'll feel the pressure. 'Pressure is and will be there for the first few days. I am taking it like a new job'. He says that the best thing about Africa is that it's very rich in natural resources, with Mangochi as his favourite place. Further afield, his favourite place is the USA, because 'it's a big country and has a mixture of different people with different cultural backgrounds. Raw talent is an asset,' he says. Mozambique Mira Age: 21 Mozambican student intern, Mira, likes to eat pap and beef stew, the music of Sia and Miley Cyrus and watching Lost and Covert Affairs. Her favourite book is Redeeming Love by Francine Rivers and her favourite actor is Adam Sandler because 'I trust him to get a chuckle out of me'. She has one older sister, and a younger brother and sister. Her favourite place in Mozambique is Maragra. She says the best thing about Africa is that 'it's the Motherland – you feel the warmth here'. Her favourite faraway place is the United States, because she loves the diversity there. If she wins the grand prize, she says she'll build her parents a retirement home, open a soup kitchen and shelter in the heart of Maputo and start a business to create more employment opportunities. She describes herself as 'fun, honest, reliable, fair and considerate' and says that she's 'laid-back and easy to talk to'. She enjoys people who are considerate, honest, reliable, fun and opinionated, but doesn't like rude and judgemental people.  Zambia Macky2 Age: 29 Hip hop musician Macky2 is from Luanshya in Zambia. His favourite book is 48 Laws of Power and his top TV shows are Suits, Crisis, Game of Thrones and Idols SA. His favourite actor is Denzel Washington, because he's able to play so many characters and bring each one to life. Jay-Z is both his favourite musician and his role model – the latter because 'he's one of the most successful entertainers of our generation'. His father has also played a huge role in Macky2's life. He entered Big Brother Hotshots because he believes that 'people naturally fall in love with my personality, so I know I stand a chance of winning that grand prize and changing my life'.Macky2 says he won't lose himself and what he believes in, along the way. Describing himself as 'a natural entertainer who's loveable', he says he always pushed himself and is never discouraged by setbacks. 'I'm confident and I truly believe I can do anything I set my mind to,' he says. |

| Nigerian Army confirms Boko Haram leader Shekau is dead Posted: 24 Sep 2014 10:30 AM PDT    Nigerian troops have been conducting coordinated air and land operations in furtherance of efforts at containing the terrorists in the North East part of the country. Somehow, it became apparent that the terrorists in continuation of their campaign of terror were determined to take over communities around Maiduguri which is their prime target. There was therefore the need to ensure that communities such as Konduga were protected. It is noteworthy that the terrorists made not less than four attempts between 12 and 17 September 2014 to violate the security and enter Konduga to perpetrate their atrocities. Air and land forces were subsequently deployed to handle the situation. The convoy of combat vehicles typical of terrorists' mission that involves their top commanders, were fiercely engaged by the land and air forces. Several of the terrorists including some of their commanders lost their lives in the encounters which lasted an average of about 5 hours each. The troops captured some of the terrorists and their equipment. In the course of those encounters, one Mohammed Bashir who has been acting or posing on videos as the deceased Abubakar Shekau, the eccentric character known as leader of the group died. Since the name Shekau has become a brand name for the terrorists' leader, the Nigerian military remains resolute to serve justice to anyone who assumes that designation or title as well as all terrorists that seek to violate the freedom and territory of Nigeria. On restoring normalcy after the encounter, inhabitants of the community who were victims of terrorists activities corroborated information on the identity of Bashir Mohammed alias Abubakar Shekau, alias Abacha Abdullahi Geidam alias Damasack etc. Indeed, the recent devastation on the leadership of the insurgents is attributable to the renewed commitment to the mission of eradicating terrorism in our country. Meanwhile, a total of 135 terrorists have yesterday evening surrendered along with equipment to troops around Biu Local Government Area. A group of 88 submitted themselves at Mairiga/Bun – Yadi while another group of 45 terrorists were taken in around Mubi – Michika. They are all being interrogated and processed in conformity with the dictates of standard best practices. The Defence Headquarters applauds the gallantry of the Nigerian troops who have remained undaunted and professional in prosecuting this campaign against terror. The keen interest exhibited by our neighbours and allies is commendable and we appreciate them. All allies in the war against terrorism are hereby assured of the Nigerian military's resolve to maintain momentum in the efforts to decimate and defeat terrorists. The invaluable efforts toward achieving sustainable peace and victory against the terrorists are highly appreciated.Statement signed by Defence spokesperson, Maj. Gen Chris Olukayode |

| T.B. Joshua’s alleged bribe: The truth - written by journalist Simon Ateba Posted: 24 Sep 2014 08:57 AM PDT 
The truth is this, as long as journalists in Nigeria are not paid for months or are given irregular crummy salaries, as long as they are not insured, as long as publishers pocket all the corrupt money they get in the forms of adverts or special reports from corrupt politicians, and as long as Nigerians refuse to spend their money on newspapers, which push publishers to solicit money from politicians who have pocketed everything, many journalists will continue to accept gifts, bribes or whatever you call it. I understand that foreign journalists at the event and a Nigerian journalist allegedly rejected the money. I am happy they allegedly did and that's where the profession should be. That's the ideal we all want. But that's not where we are. Most journalists in Nigeria have no insurance. Many newspapers in Nigeria have not paid their reporters for months, some even a year, including those newspapers that are even getting those corrupt advert money from government officials. A CNN, Reuters, Associated Press or BBC journalist will surely die if he was not paid for one year, had no insurance, no house to live in, and no friend to support him. And many former journalists who are now successful and even the society at large, are very wicked. They see a journalist who is striving to stand out, who wants to be objective and unbiased, they watch him as life challenges crush him to death. No car, no house, no savings, nothing to show for 20 years of work. And when such a journalist accepts a gift, the same society says, look at him, he's corrupt. He's biased. He's unethical. But the same society screaming does not buy newspapers, they prefer to spend all their money on drinks, cigarettes, clothes, bags and cars but demand and expect higher standards from the media. So I am sorry to say it won't happen. The society is hypocritical and the media industry is sick. But until there's a shift, nothing will change. You can say these are just excuses. You may even add that the media should be our conscience, and only truth is acceptable. You will be passing a superficial judgement, because you cannot just should look at corruption in the media without understanding why the rot is so deep and the change so hard. You must understand that it is the product of a failed society. A corrupt government, a corrupt judiciary, a corrupt police force, a corrupt army, a corrupt civil society, a corrupt banking and financial system, a corrupt educational system, a corrupt political system, in summary, it is the product of a failed country that does nothing when journalists are not paid for months or are left to wallow in poverty after serving their nations for 20 years. I used to know a journalist who passed on after working for his company for many years in Lagos, and his wife was given only one month salary to take care of herself and their kids. I guess, this, certainly, is not the future we all envisaged after graduating with a First Class at the University. My rambling is getting too long. Let me summarise. The journalist who leaked the alleged bribery to the public claimed that he did so because journalists were too soft on Prophet T.B. Joshua and were not reporting the truth. Hear him: "I observed that Nigerian media were being too gentle on TB Joshua despite the glaring irregularities surrounding the collapse. I read more reports about the "hovering craft" and how Boko Haram could have sabotaged the building. "Very little was reported about the structural defects of the building. Not much was written about the fact that the building originally had 2 floors and was being illegally refurbished with 4 additional floors when it collapsed. We didn't come hard on the Synagogue Church goons who attacked first responders. We didn't highlight the fact that many of those that perished could have been saved if NEMA officials weren't barred from the site for almost three days! We didn't make an issue of the fact that our colleagues who had gone to report the collapsed building were molested on Saturday." Of course, you all know that these are lies. What he's saying is not factual. Or maybe he did not read reporting of the building collapse enough. On 15 September, the day after the alleged bribe was given to journalists, P.M.NEWS published this editorial: http://www.pmnewsnigeria.com/2014/09/15/the-synagogue-tragedy/ . You can read it yourself and let me know if it looked like they were being soft on T.B. Joshua or hiding the facts. The 20-year old newspaper said in that editorial: "Perhaps most of the dead victims would have been rescued alive if the church staff and people perceived as thugs did not prevent officials of the National Emergency Management Agency, NEMA, from carrying out rescue operations immediately the building crumbled. Lagos State Governor, Babatunde Fashola, had to intervene by visitting the scene of the disaster and ordering the church staff to leave the site before rescue work could start in earnest." The newspaper concluded it editorial by saying: "We must go beyond speculation to serious investigation to unravel the facts and prevent future tragedies of this magnitude. Those who are found wanting should be made to face the full wrath of the law." Does that look like a newspaper trying to protect T.B. Joshua or that did not care about the dead? Of course not. But that was not all. the same day, the cover story of P.M.NEWS in Lagos read: "Boko Haram Attack: Nigerians Blast T.B. Joshua". The lead or the first paragraph of that story read: "Nigerians have blasted Prophet T.B. Joshua of the Synagogue Church of All Nations for claiming that Boko Islamist sect might have brought down a six-storey building in his church that has killed more than 40 people." That front page story was published on 15 September. Does it look like people who were buying the story of a jet hovering over the building before it came down? These examples were just from P.M.NEWS. It was the same thing for The Punch, The Nation, Vanguard, The Sun, ThisDay, Tribune, The New Telegraph, TheNews Magazine, and even TVC and Channels TV, as well as other television and radio stations. So it is not factual to say that Nigerian journalists were being soft on T.B. Joshua or were hiding the facts. It is simply a lie. If Nigerian journalists collected the money, they did so because of a sick industry, a failed state and the reasons I mentioned above. But the money certainly did not change the facts. And we all knew the facts even before the audio was leaked last week. One thing I can say is that until investigation is conducted and concluded, no one can claim to know exactly what led to the building collapse. It will just be ranting, and rambling that lead to semantic noise but nothing evidential or concrete. I can say more, and go on and on, but for now, it's time to mourn the dead. May their souls rest in peace. |

| 52 Boko haram members arrested in Biu, Borno state Posted: 24 Sep 2014 08:11 AM PDT  A military source said some of the sect men had boarded a truck in a bid to leave the state but were arrested after the truck driver notified soldiers at a checkpoint that passengers in his vehicle had threatened to kill him if he did not take them out of the state. A member of the local volunteer group, Aliyu Mamza, said his group was also instrumental to the arrest of the sect members. According to him, 46 BH men hid in the compartment of the truck meant for transporting goats and were exposed after the driver of the truck notified soldiers. Six other members were arrested at the Biu bus station as they were about boarding a bus out of Borno. |

| Beautiful 28yr old nurse hangs herself after suffering chronic skin disease Posted: 24 Sep 2014 07:03 AM PDT   A health visitor with a first class honours degree in nursing was found hanged after she became tormented by her severe skin condition. Hollie McEwen, a dedicated professional, first suffered psoriasis as a 12-month-old but it eased with treatment. However, it later reappeared due to stress and the 28-year-old became so depressed she took her own life at home.  Her father Andrew told an inquest: 'Her condition played a large part in what she decided to do. 'She was a beautiful, vibrant young woman who felt she couldn't deal with the condition. She felt this was the only way out.' The Doncaster hearing was told she had suffered from bulimia as a teenager. Her family believed the eating disorder stemmed from her ongoing issues with her skin condition. Her mother Wendy said: 'Her skin condition played a large part in her problems as a teenager and when older I feel this was at the root of all the problems.' Hollie's body was found just two days after she had sought medical help for her depression. She had spent a long time writing several letters to loved ones which were found in a bin. Her father, who saw her the evening before the tragedy said: 'She was a happy, young woman who enjoyed her work and social life but she kept everything very close to herself. We had a good laugh on that last night and there was no indication she was unhappy.' Mrs McEwen said her daughter, who lived in Scawsby, Doncaster, had treatment for psoriasis over the last few years involving hospital stays and steroids after suffering anxiety attacks. Hollie had enjoyed a family holiday in Turkey but was 'down' after being given an anti-depression drug by her GP which failed to lighten her mood. 'She was an intelligent, determined and organised young woman,' she said. 'I told her to keep going with the tablets and give it time.' When told about her daughter's death she said: 'I was in absolute shock. Her death has left a large hole in our family. I still can't understand why this has happened.' Hollie's brother Andrew told the inquest: 'She was a happy young woman who enjoyed her work and social life. She kept everything very close to herself.'  He said there was no indication that she was unhappy the evening before she died. He added: 'As a teenager she was always conscious of her skin condition and it worried her greatly.' Hollie's neighbour Elaine Lunn found a note from her on the morning of Friday, May 23 asking her to call the emergency services so Hollie's family would not find her body. She said: 'I believe she had planned it. There was nothing to suggest prior that she was going to do anything like this. I feel totally distraught.' She added: 'She was a very attractive young woman. She was energetic, thoughtful and caring and studied to further her career. She was very bright and intelligent.' Nurse and friend Angelina Deighton, who trained with Hollie at Sheffield Hallam University, said she knew her psoriasis had worried Hollie and she said she was having treatment and counselling. 'She was always the life and soul of our friendship group,' she said. 'She was always bubbly. She had a boyfriend for a few months in 2013 but it fizzled out and she wasn't concerned about it. 'Lately she described being tired, down and just not coping. She had been to her GP for anti-depressants but she didn't think counselling would help her and she tried to help herself. 'I tried time and time again to get her to seek help. She had many friends who thought she would never do anything like this.' Behavioural psychotherapist Jessica Dunn, who had a session with Hollie just two days before she died, said Hollie had started to feel anxious and overwhelmed at having to plan a friend's hen party. 'She was well presented with immaculate hair and make-up,' said Miss Dunn. She had 'dark thoughts' but had no intention of carrying them out. 'She told me "I wouldn't put my family through that".' Hollie had been avoiding her friends and not socialising because her mood was so low. After breaking down in tears in the witness stand Miss Dunn said: 'I had no concern for her safety.'

| 'Daniel asked for divorce many times before we finally separated' - Doris Simeon Posted: 24 Sep 2014 04:39 AM PDT  "This man asked for divorce over seven times, long before we finally separated. At every little problem, he would say 'I want divorce, I want divorce.' There are some people that he listens to when they talk to him, so I tried to call pastors, and they kept calling him, but he wouldn't pick their calls. At some point, I just realized that he had made up his mind finally. It got to a point that I had to look at myself in the mirror, and I said to myself, 'Doris, you are a beautiful woman, why would you want to kill yourself over nothing?' I convinced myself to just try and move on with my life also. It took me a year to get to that point, but in between that time, I was trying to focus my mind on other things such as work." My advice to other women going through this is; put God first in everything. Put things behind you, make sure you look your best and work harder. Don't kill yourself because of any man because you have kids to take care of. |

| 'We won't plead for the 12 soldiers sentenced to death' - Senate Posted: 24 Sep 2014 01:11 AM PDT  The Chairman, Senate Committee on Defence, Senator Thompson Sekibo has said that members of the Senate will not be intervening on the death verdict handed to 12 soldiers for mutiny by a military court on September 16th. Senator Sekibo who spoke with journalists after a closed-door meeting between the senate committee on Defence and the Service Chiefs at the National Assembly in Abuja yesterday September 23rd, said the verdict of the military court is meant to instill discipline into the military.
Meanwhile the Nigerian Labor Congress has condemned the death sentence. Speaking through the Acting President of the Union, Promise Adewusi, the NLC described the verdict as unacceptable and advised that the verdict be converted to a more tolerable and acceptable one "We expect that the Military Council or the appropriate authority, whose responsibility it is to review sentences of this nature, should commute this sentence to a more tolerable or acceptable one.".He said the sentence to death verdict handed to the soldiers if carried out could sow the seed of a major security problem in the armed forces. |
