LIB reader encounters unique creation of job via agriculture (photos)

Posted: 22 Jul 2015 01:18 PM PDT

A LIB reader writes in...
I was just going about my daily work activities when I came across this scene that caught my attention. Yoruba will say "Oba l'agbe" meaning a farmer is a king. I counted up to 36 young boys that are engaged in offloading yam tubers from canoes on the river and transferring it into 2trucks parked on the land. It's not about how much this guys will get at the end of the day but doing this will at least put food on their table.
If our government can look majorly into agriculture, it will reduce rate of unemployment to a certain extent, moreso when it's on a large scale production. If agriculture becomes funded, that is, access to fund from financial institutions at a lower or no interest rate and possibly availability of land by the government, it will become lucrative and youths will be interested in it rather than engaging in illegal activities.
The campaign about increasing rate of employment can also be achieved in this direction. Attached is the pictures of the guys transferring tubers to the truck.

Skyy Vodka to host its brand ambassador, Patoranking, on MTV award winner

Posted: 22 Jul 2015 12:56 PM PDT

Skyy Vodka is planning to hold a grand reception to honour its brand ambassador, Patoranking, who recently won the coveted Best New Act award at the MTV Africa Music Awards (MAMA) held in South Africa over the weekend.

Patoranking displaced other African top artists, including Stonebwoy (Ghana), Cassper Nyovest (South Africa), Duncan (South Africa)and Anna Joyce (Angola), all of whom were nominated for this highly coveted category in the MAMA awards.




As part of the big plans to appreciate MAMA and the entire Africa continent, the brand ambassador will be giving away 54 bottles of Skyy Vodka, representing the 54 countries in Africa whose artistes the MAMA awards seek to project to the rest of the world.

It will be recalled that Patoranking, on his way to the MAMA awards, interfaced with his numerous fans at an album-signing ceremony in Lagos, sponsored by Skyy Vodka.

At the ceremony held at Drinks.ng Stores, Patoranking expressed his appreciation to Skyy Vodka for creating the needed platform for him to connect with his fans.

In December 2014, the brand ambassador also defeated all contenders to emerge the Next Rated and Best Reggae Single in the Headies Award and took home the star prize of a brand new car.

Outrage as mum posts FB photo of 2yr old boy inside her washing machine

Posted: 22 Jul 2015 09:58 AM PDT

A woman shocked friends after she posted a photo of a little boy with Down's syndrome inside a washing machine on Facebook. Courtney Stewart, 21, (pictured above) shared the photo saying the 2 year old boy had climbed into the machine by himself because he has a 'washing obsession', and said she was sharing the photo 'as a laugh'. The child was in her care when the photo was taken.
 
Her neigbours in Erskine, Renfrewshire, UK, didn't think the photo was funny and reported her to police. The police visited her but she was not arrested.
She told police that the door to the washing machine had not been closed on the boy, and the machine was unplugged as she was waiting for a new one to be delivered. 

Speaking of the decision taken by someone who had seen the picture on Facebook to report it to police, she said: 'I don't know who reported it. I don't really know why they would do that. I think it's absolutely ridiculous.'

Ms Stewart claimed she was also assaulted on her doorstep by a stranger who had seen the picture. She has since removed the photo.

Chris Brown barred from leaving the Philippines after performing there

Posted: 22 Jul 2015 08:28 AM PDT

Chris Brown is currently stuck in the Philippines because he allegedly skipped out on a concert gig there last year. He performed last night in the country but when he tried to leave this morning for a show in Hong Kong, he was blocked from doing so by the Philippine Department of Justice. Read the full report from the Philippines Daily Inquirer after the cut...



American recording artist Chris Brown, who staged a concert on Tuesday night at SM Mall of Asia (MOA) Arena in Pasay City, was stopped on Wednesday afternoon from leaving the country for his Hong Kong concert.
The Grammy-winning R&B artist was advised by the show's promoters not to leave his room at Nobu Hotel in City of Dreams because he had been put on the watch list of the Bureau of Immigration, a source with direct knowledge of the incident told the Philippine Daily Inquirer.
The reason for ordering Brown's name to be on the BI watch list, said to have been signed by Justice Secretary Leila de Lima, remained unclear to this source. Brown's concert promoters have proceeded to the DOJ to know the full story.
The source said that Brown had no warrant of arrest but could be detained at the airport for questioning.
Pending clearance from the DOJ, the promoters were hoping that Brown would be allowed to depart Manila by Monday, July 27, the source added.
Sources at the immigration bureau, however, said that Brown had become a subject of a Department of Justice (DOJ) lookout bulletin for an estafa complaint filed against him for failing to show up in a Dec. 31, 2014, Philippine Arena concert which he top-billed.
One source said that the lookout bulletin indicated that the criminal complaint had been for the foreign artist's alleged "deceitful misrepresentations and swindling."
Brown was supposed to leave at around 2 p.m., Wednesday, on a Gulfstream IV aircraft, parked at a private hangar in the Ninoy Aquino International Airport general aviation area near Terminal 4.

Is 100% honesty in relationships truly the best? He broke off their engagement after she admitted to having had an abortion at 19

Posted: 22 Jul 2015 08:07 AM PDT

Story sent in by a LIB reader. Read below and share your opinion...
The woman (a family friend) introduced a junior colleague (they both work in the same firm) to one of her clients who was looking to settle down quickly in marriage. He didn't want a long engagement. They both took to each other immediately and true to his words they got engaged after a three month courtship. They followed it up with an introduction; a small event between both families. Two weeks ago they went to take some medical tests. They already knew each other's Genotype and are compatible but an official confirmation was needed. On their way home, he began to preach about the importance of honesty in a relationship.
He went on to reveal that two of his ex-girlfriends had abortions for him. He then asked her if she has ever had an abortion. He assured her that he wouldn't mind if the answer is YES after all his exes are married with children. She admitted to having terminated a pregnancy at 19 but it was a safe abortion.
To her surprise, he took the revelation well. Everything was the same until last week when his attitude suddenly changed. He stopped calling her, picking her calls, ignored her BBM messages. Even his older brother and two sisters whom she had become close to also began to avoid her. To cut the long story short, he called off the engagement because he doesn't want to marry a girl that has had an abortion.
My family friend(the matchmaker) is furious but mainly because of what she termed the girl's 'naivety' and 'stupidity'. Who admits to such things? she asked. Was the girl really naïve and stupid? Was she just being honest about her medical history?

Photos: Man strays into NUJ office, says he's tired of life and wants to die

Posted: 22 Jul 2015 08:01 AM PDT

Article sent to me by Chris Isiguzo, the VP of Nigerian Union of Journalist, South East. Read below..
A 45- year old man, Idris Ahmed, from Bassa Local Government of Kogi state strayed into the NUJ Press Centre, Enugu state, Wednesday afternoon with a funny story that bothers on spiritual attack. He obviously has given up on life and is contemplating suicide if nothing urgently is done to his case. According to his story, since 1999, anybody that comes across him had rejected him with the phantom story that he is a homo-sexual which he clearly denied.

'As far as am concerned, am tired of life. Anybody that tries to be nice to you, or tries to give me work, unseen people will come and sabotage me. If I make friend with a girl, unseen forces will still corner the girl that am a homo-sexual and the girl will run away. At this point, am 45 years and nobody is ready to marry me. Am a bricklayer but as i speak, no work anywhere. Am tired of life, i cannot get job, i cannot stay with a woman, i cannot relate with anybody. There is no way out for me than to cry out and see if i will get any spiritual help, though am a moslem but am ready for any assistance from anywhere but if none comes soonest, then i have the last option.

Meek Mill launched Twitter war against Drake because of affair with Nicki Minaj?

Posted: 22 Jul 2015 07:56 AM PDT


That's what a source is claiming. This morning Meek Mill fired at one of Nicki's closest allies in the music business, Drake, claiming that Drake doesn't write his own lyrics. A source claims that Meek came for Drake on Twitter after he found out that Nicki had dated Drake in the past.
"Meek is upset that Drake [allegedly dated] Nicki. I think Nicki is low key in love with Drake and Drake is low key in love with Nicki. You have to see how they are when they're around each other. If I was Meek, I might feel some type of way about it too."
MediaTakeOut claims the alleged relationship between Nicki and Drake occurred while she was Safaree . . . but when she was also creeping with Meek.
"Meek is very insecure, and he should be. He got Nicki on the rebound . . . she just came off a long-term relationship with [Safaree] and you know sh*t like that [rebound relationships] never really work.
"Real talk though - I think Nicki and Drake really will get married one of these days." the source told MTO
Meek Mill has since deleted most of Nicki's photos from his instagram page...
