GEJ is a good man! Sues Senate, House of Reps over Constitution Amendments

Posted: 23 Apr 2015 12:47 PM PDT

President Jonathan is a good man. He's just a month away from leaving as president of Nigeria and he could have signed this constitutional amendment bill that doesn't particularly concern him anymore but he refused to. For those who don't know what's going on, let me break it down to the best of my ability. Lol. So, the Nigerian Senate is trying to amend the 1999 constitution to the effect that it will whittle down some executive powers of the President and give more power to the legislature and judiciary.

If amended, it means there are some decisions and actions the president can't take without the consent of the National Assemly and there will be decisions the National Assembly can take without the consent of the president. Like I said, GEJ could sign this and walk away but instead he refused to sign it. He wrote a 7-page letter to the Senate explaining why he declined to sign the document into law.

"In view of the foregoing and absence of credible evidence that the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (Fourth Alteration) Act 2015 satisfied the strict requirements of Section 9(3) of the 1999 Constitution, it will be unconstitutional for me to assent to it. I therefore withhold my assent and accordingly remit Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (Fourth Alteration) Act 2015 to the Senate /House of Representatives of the Federal Republic of Nigeria."
But now, the National Assembly is saying that after 30 days, if the president doesn't sign the doc, they will override his veto. Meaning that they will give themselves the power to amend the constitution without the president's signature. Now the federal government has instituted a suit at the Supreme Court to nullify the proposed amendments to the 1999 Constitution.

The real reason Big Sean and Ariana Grande broke up?

Posted: 23 Apr 2015 09:32 AM PDT

Ariana Grande and Big Sean announced a few days ago that they were breaking up after dating for 8 months. Now, insiders are dishing on went wrong.

From TMZ...

Sources tell TMZ ... Sean claims it was him who broke off the relationship because she was "immature". Sources say the downfall of their relationship started in February, when he made the most important appearance of his career at the House of Blues in West Hollywood. Everyone showed -- Kanye, Bieber, JLo, Chris Brown, Jay Z, A$AP Rocky, Tyga, Kylie and Kendall -- everyone except Ariana. We're told she needed to get ready for the Grammy's the next day, which he found extremely selfish.
Sean also traveled to see her "10 times more" than she went to see him. He claimed once she demanded that he blow tens of thousands of dollars to take a private jet to see her. Sean, who grew up poor, felt she was a spendthrift ... a sign of immaturity.
But the crowning blow was just after the breakup. They were still talking and the door was slightly open for a reconciliation, when Bieber jumped onstage in L.A. and grabbed Ariana from behind. Even though Ariana pushed Biebs away, Sean believes it was all calculated -- NOT by Bieber but Ariana -- to hurt him.

Classiq Tunez, Pscholes, Modele and Sther complete Top 12 of Etisalat Sponsored Nigerian Idol

Posted: 23 Apr 2015 09:21 AM PDT

With weeks of shattered dreams for a lot of contestants and a few closer to their dreams of becoming the next music sensation, last week saw the last set of 3 contestants qualify for the Top 12 round of the Etisalat Sponsored Nigerian Idol.

12 contestants were recalled for the Wildcard round, and the judges had the responsibility of picking the best 3 contestants to make it to the Top 12. 

All the recalled contestants gave their all to impress the judges, but Pscholes, Modele and Sther emerged victorious. However, the Judges placed Preye and Precious as stand-by contestants, as they both impressed the judging trio.

In an unexpected twist of fate, Tama Nisa, a contestant that had scaled through to the top 12 two weeks ago, decided that she would be leaving the competition due to health reasons. This opened up a free spot in the top 12 and the judges decided to give it to Classiq Tunez after his riveting rendition of Robbie Williams' 'Angels'.
  
Manager, Youth Segment, Etisalat Nigeria, Idiare Atimomo said "The Nigerian voters and Judges have made their decisions and they have kept faith with their favorite contestants. We are happy with their favorites and confident that they will not disappoint.''

So there you have it folks! The contestants who have made it thus far to the top-12 stage include Preye, Prime, Dolu, Brenda, Nex 2 and Classiq Tunez. Others are Ayoka, K-Peace, Uloma, Pscholes, Modele and Sther.

The show is heating up and it is clear that the grand prize is up for grabs for one of these lucky twelve.

This season's winner will go home with N7.5 million cash, a brand new car and a recording deal with Universal Music Company worth N7.5 million, among other prizes.

President Jonathan orders removal of Jonathan/Sambo campaign billboards, banners & posters

Posted: 23 Apr 2015 08:33 AM PDT

State House press statement below..
With the 2015 presidential elections now concluded and the country preparing for the inauguration of a new administration on May 29, President Goodluck Jonathan believes that it is appropriate that steps be taken to restore the environment in Nigerian cities, towns and villages to their pre-elections campaign state.
Accordingly, President Jonathan directs that the PDP Presidential Campaign Organisation and the various associations that coalesced into the Jonathan/Sambo Support Group immediately begin the process of removing the posters, billboards, banners, signs and other campaign materials in support of his re-election bid which still adorn the landscape in major cities across the country.

The President thanks all individuals and organisations who made sincere contributions and worked with immense dedication for the Jonathan/ Sambo Campaign. He applauds his supporters and other Nigerians for the disciplined, patriotic and democratic manner in which they comported themselves before, during and after the elections.

Now that the elections are over except for re-runs in a few states, President Jonathan urges Nigerians to put the recent political campaigns behind them and join hands with the incoming administration in working for a more united, peaceful, stable and progressive nation.

Tonto Dikeh & a luxury shopper call each other out on social media

Posted: 23 Apr 2015 08:46 AM PDT

This morning, some folks sent me text messages purportedly between Tonto Dikeh and some personal shopper called Pearl Chucks about Tonto buying stuff from her and allegedly refusing to pay for them. Then I later saw the shopper calling out Tonto Dikeh on instagram. I didn't carry the story because it could just be someone trying to use her name to draw attention to her business but Tonto just replied her - acknowledging that she had business dealings with this person, so now I can carry the story. Read about it after the cut...(btw, Tonto shared the screengrab above on instagram)
So Pearl took to instagram this morning to reveal message sent to Tonto Dikeh to pay up her debt of N192,000. She claimed Tonto Dikeh gave a cheque that bounced and has refused to respond towards the issue and is now giving out threats.
Pearl wrote,
'Dear @tontolet,thank you for pushing me beyond my comfort zone.I trusted you as a celebrity and gave you a Givenchy luggage bag and handbag with you promising you will pay,you couldn't afford the original so you asked for the replica,You ordered March 8th it was delivered March 20th and u had to pay that day but.its been over one month and it's been story after story,you ignore my messages and calls,you claim you assistant was going to pay me ,I called Peter and he said the check you gave him of the 8th bounced on the 10th.Dear Tontoh I am a young girl 23yrs old trying to run a business,I am embarrassed and I am upset at myself that I trusted you as a public figure to pay me back,now I ask you my money you block me on Instagram?Who does that?when I read the tiannah story I thought it was a lie but I am still amazed at the fact that you have stooped  so low and blocking me when you owe me.You will pay me by fire by force,you will not bully me,I have lost respect for you as a woman and as a human.i will make sure everyone knows who you really are so you don't go dupe another young girl,thank God I didn't give you the authentic bags if not where will I be?God sees all the devil we do and it will come back to you x10000.repay my money.lets not forget the moschoni dress shirt and you just called to threaten me?that weed you are smoking is really making you delusional.You are a sorry excuse of a celebrity when real celebrities and actresses call themselves  please remove you name from the list.

Imagine walking on a street and a hole opens up and swallows you. It happened to this woman

Posted: 23 Apr 2015 07:34 AM PDT

According to a report on Mail Online, a woman thought to be in her mid-forties, plunged down this eight foot deep hole (pictured). She has been hurrying along the pavement outside the Marrakech Express café in Fulham, south west London this morning when a five foot by two and a half foot gap appeared.

Passers-by shouted at the woman to stop but she flew past and 'disappeared' down the gap, which opened 'like a trap door' into the basement below. The woman was said to be pushing a shopping trolley. The café owner helped the shaken woman out and gave her a coffee while she waited for paramedics to take her to hospital.

Boko Haram runs out of arms and ammunition, now using bow and arrow..lol

Posted: 23 Apr 2015 07:03 AM PDT

Director of Defence Information, Major General Chris Olukolade says Boko Haram members have resorted to using bows and arrows to carry out their attacks after running out of arms & ammunition. Olukolade said this while speaking to newsmen in Abuja today April 23rd.
"The Boko Haram terrorists have run out of arms and ammunition because the usual supplies they get are not forthcoming. They now have only bow and arrows, machetes, daggers and other local weapons. You can find more than 500 of them with only few having rifles and even when one or two of them have rifles, they have no ammunition. I am optimistic that the military will succeed in killing many of these insurgents who have been terrorizing residents for the past three years."he said

Rukky Sanda calls out Nigerian senator who called for the attack of SA businesses in Nigeria

Posted: 23 Apr 2015 06:50 AM PDT

Below is what she posted on instagram... 
Where do I begin? When I was goin to post about this about 4days ago, if I did I'm sure I'd have written a whole paragraph as I had too many words running thru my head from watching videos of attacks on innocent victims to arrogant silly South African man saying to the camera that Nigerians have to go cos they take their women & their jobs... #smh looking into his lazy eyes as he spoke was single handedly the most stupid thing I'd ever heard a full grown man say, but that aside I guess this images speak for themselves... I'd say this much tho' as regards what I read and images being circulated on social media and few acts already being engaged by Nigerians on South African countries in Nigeria, and worst of all watching a Nigerian Senator on NTA lastNight encouraging Nigerians to attack companies like MTN & MultiChoice amongst others is totally despicable.
Firstly 98% of ppl working in these companies are Nigerians so how exactly will causing harm to our very own people or building the idea help end #xenophobia? Destroying properties of our very own with the hope that Companies will bare the loss? Cos I'm quite confused. It is a critical time, we are hurt, we are furious we want them to pay but Violence is not the Solution to Violence, cos as far as I'm concerned to "BeLittle", is to "Be Little" and we will never be any better than the people committing this totally sinful and shameful act if we bring ourselves to lay In the mud with them. We have to be united to fight, we have to maintain positivity, we have to stay strong and most of all be united as #ONE... Let ur Voice be heard, Africa Is One, Put An End to XENOPHOBIC acts🔚. #stand4peace&unity... #violenceIsNotTheAnswer2violence. 🚫🚫🚫

Nigerian troops pull back from Sambisa forest

Posted: 23 Apr 2015 06:23 AM PDT

Nigerian troops have pulled back from their ongoing operations in Sambisa forest after 3 members of a government approved vigilante were killed by landmines setup by Boko Haram in the deadly forest today April 23rd.

The soldiers and the vigilante group members made an entry into the deadly forest on Sunday April 20th to destroy the sect members camps in the forest and if possible liberate the missing Chibok girls.

Reuters reports that a soldier who confirmed the retreat of the Nigerian troops said
"The soldiers have retreated to Bama because of mines. They had been on the road but that made them vulnerable, so they moved to the bush but there are mines planted there (too),"
A member of the vigilante group, Muhammad Mungonu, while confirming the recent development said
"Three of our boys were killed by a landmine as we progressed into Sambisa. We've suspended going farther."
