FG approves $200 million loan for Lagos

Posted: 13 Jan 2016 01:07 PM PST

The Federal Executive Council, FEC, today approved a $200 million loan for Lagos state government. Announcing this to state house correspondents after the FEC meeting, Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed and Minister of Works, road and Power Babatunde Fashola, said the loan was part of a $600 million loan granted by World Bank to finance the construction of roads and other infrastructural development projects in the state.


"After the first tranche was disbursed, there was a freeze on the second tranche. The initial agreements we had with the World Bank was a 40-year loan, a 10-year moratorium and 0.5 percent interest. But because of the delays that subsequently characterised the partisan interference that took place, our profile as a nation also changed we have become a bigger economy. Though money was being lent to us, we are no longer taking it as a highly indebted nation. So by the time this one was approved, because of the delays, we had lost the opportunity of 40 years as it is now a loan of 25 years, the moratorium has reduced to five years instead of 10 years. The interest rate had gone up to 2.5 percent, but what is still heart-warming about it is that it helps to finance infrastructure."

Oregon judge sentences attempted murderer, then presides over his wedding

Posted: 13 Jan 2016 12:10 PM PST

An Oregon man convicted of attempted murder said he wanted to get married before he went to prison, so the judge who sentenced him agreed to preside over the courtroom wedding Friday, local media reported.

A Portland jury had convicted 24-year-old Tyrone Allen on charges including attempted murder after police said he shot at a rival gang member in March of last year. The conviction carries a minimum prison sentence of 10 years.

 But before his sentencing, Allen told his defense attorney that he wanted to marry his longtime friend Trisha Romero that day, according to KOIN. "They were happy," attorney Alicia Hercher told the news station.

She reportedly asked Judge Gregory Silver if he could stick around for the wedding, and he said yes. Prosecutors didn't object, but they didn't stay for the ceremony.

After the sentencing, the judge posed with the couple as they said "I do." Allen's hands and feet were shackled. Family and friends watched.

Since Allen had been sentenced to prison, he and Romero couldn't kiss, or touch each other in any way. But after a quick, 5-minute ceremony, the husband was escorted out of the courtroom, and eventually, to prison.

No budget is missing. Senate chairman

Posted: 13 Jan 2016 12:04 PM PST

Read the statement below...
Chairman, Senate Committee on Media And Public Affairs, Senator Aliyu Sabi Abdullahi has said that no statement made by any Senator during the plenary today can be interpreted to mean an admission that the 2016 budget is missing.
He said there is no budget missing and that the Senate will tomorrow (Thursday) distribute copies of the budget to all the Senators so as to arm them to properly contribute to the debate which will take place between Tuesday. January 19 to Thursday, January 21, 2015. 
Already, all senators have indicated the date they will make their own contribution on the budget.

Abdullahi stated that during today's plenary when Senator Eyinaya Abaribe sought for clarification on the story in the media surrounding the information that the copy of the 2016 budget submitted to the Senate was missing and sought to know update on the issue.  The Senate President replied that the issue he (Abaribe) mentioned and  all issues emanating from the executive sessions are being looked into by an adhoc committee and that all Senators should wait for the committee to submit its report.

"We have reeled out our time table for working on the budget. So, how can the same budget be missing? The Senate President never said or admitted that the budget is missing and there was nothing that he said while presiding over the plenary that could be logically interpreted to mean am admission that the budget is missing.

"The media should please avoid unnecessary sensationalism. We assure Nigerians that our time table of completing work on the budget by February ending remains sacrosanct and we will work assiduously to achieve it", he said.

Actor Michael Jai White blasts black men for constantly cheating on their wives

Posted: 13 Jan 2016 09:20 AM PST

Actor Michael Jai White last week wrote an epistle on his Facebook page blasting black men for constantly cheating on their wives and it not being a big deal. Meanwhile, Michael himself was caught cheating on his ex-wife, a black woman, which was one of the things that led to their divorce. He's probably learnt his lesson as he's happily married to another woman, and sounds like he's very faithful to her. Read what he wrote after the cut...


I open Facebook and I see the "What's On Your Mind" question and I immediately say " Oh, Hell No!" I don't think I want to share this negativity about this mind numbing stupidity I keep seeing plastered all over social media these days. I try to be positive and the only positive thing I can say is that I can say is, IT'S A GREAT TIME TO BE IGNORANT! Never has the Ignorant had such a platform. Trump, GOP, Oregon Militia... It's like an Ignorance Renaissance... It's Ignopendence Day! Arguments have become merely people quoting trivial truths that are so disconnected from the main argument that it's almost comedic if it weren't for the tragedy of us missing the benefit of learning the validity of opposing views. People have become so polarized that they hang on to anything that supports their bias no matter how minimal or ignorant it is in the big picture just to claim victory.
I'm seeing countless posts on racism, Bill Cosby as well as racism connected with Bill Cosby and my mind is blown! There are so many posts devoted to proving racism exists that there is no energy left on focusing on the solutions. We spend investigative brilliance and use millions of words on proving what we already know. Racism does exist. If we said "Eat at Joes" at least something would happen- Joe's revenues would go up! How about only THREE WORDS words in response to systemic racism, "SUPPORT BLACK BUSINESSES?"
Then there's the omnipresent and all powerful "THEY!" T.H.E.Y., I call them, The Honkeys For the Eradication of Y'all! "They" set up Bill Cosby! Oh sure. If he never drugged anybody he's still the most self righteous, judgmental and biggest known serial adulterer we've ever known without relying on our creativity and analogy to paint him differently. The truths as to his genius to the entertainment industry have as much relevance to his case as us giving Jeffrey Dahmer credit for the people he DIDN'T eat. My bad for the comparison because Dahmer admitted his crimes. Being an Actor from NYC, I as well as countless others know how "busy" Cosby was in the 80's and believe me, "THEY" knew it too but "THEY" never came out with the headline "Americas Most Beloved Father Is Cheating His Black Ass Off," did THEY? If THEY wanted to take Cosby down wouldn't that be the best time? I've identified this for years as the one double standard that black men enjoyed over whites! Let Seinfeld be married and do that shit! Lol. Remember Hugh Grant was practically destroyed from one encounter with a hooker?
I'm a black man who's disturbed by the fact that we can have infidelity in our lives and it NOT BE A BIG DEAL! It's like society is saying being faithful is above black men and below whites. MLK, Jessie Jackson, Cosby... the list goes on.
Cosby stopped being a hero to me as soon as I learned he was living a lie as a faithful man, period. Lesson is: Power should not go unchecked and he could've been Man enough not to embarrass his family. Funny thing is, I'll bet Fat Albert, Theo or any of the Cosby kids have had episodes about the virtues of being truthful and that hiding the truth comes at the liars detriment. I think if you can give praise when praise is due, you can give shame when shame is due and no one is above or below either.
Now I'm gonna go watch a Stephen Curry meme to change my mood...love that guy!

5 Brooklyn boys accused of raping a teen claim they caught her having sex with her dad and joined in

Posted: 13 Jan 2016 08:50 AM PST

OK, this is getting interesting. Remember the story of the five Brooklyn teenagers accused of gang raping an 18 year old girl in a playground in New York on Jan. 8th? (Read here)...the story is getting more complicated. They released new cell phone video evidence claiming there was no rape. They also claimed that they walked in on the girl having sex with her own father in the park and joined in. This is their own version of the story. Not sure I believe it. Continue..


Here is what the NY Daily News is reporting:
A brother of one suspect came forward earlier in the day with an unverified 10-second video, shot with a cell phone, showing a smiling girl who's naked from the waist down — supposedly the victim — sitting with a young man.
"You saying yeah?" says a voice off-camera. "It's lit" — meaning the youths had the go-ahead for sexual relations with the 18-year-old woman, according to Billy Anderson, brother of suspect Ethan Phillip.
A cell phone was recovered, and the NYPD was seeking a search warrant to scour its contents, a police source said. One teen told cops he shot video of the victim and sent it to a relative, the source said.
Anderson said he was told the teens spied the victim and her father having sex on a tennis court when they arrived at the park, and they challenged the dad's claim of getting chased away with a gun.
"No man in his right mind would leave their daughter like that," Anderson told the Daily News.
The police have since rubbished this claim, saying they found no evidence to support the father and daughter were engaged in sex.

LIB reader shares near death experience...how he escaped being lynched in Benin

Posted: 13 Jan 2016 08:32 AM PST

Read his story below...
This is a true life personal experience and a great testimony on how i escaped being lynched to death in Benin and i thought i should share with members of the public. If not for the grace of God, i don't know where i would have been by now, I guess heaven because i'm a child of God!

On this very day, i went to the Immigration office at Ramat park area, Ikpoba Hill Benin to pick up my passport. The thought of travelling out of the country for the first time was overwhelming. A colleague of mine before i left to pick up the passport gave me 13k to help him pay into the bank.

Because of the enthusiasm within me, i wanted to collect the passport first, then pay the money into the bank on my way back. To show that God is in deed meciful and my mama prayer no dey go in vein. My instinct just told me why not pay in the money first since you will pass through the bank. My brothers and sisters, i heeded to my instinct, and that saved my life as you will soon find out.

Getting to the Immigration with all the stress and waiting, i finally got my passport o and i was ecstatic! Na first time na . On my way back, i boarded a bus to ring road. i couldnt take my hands off the the passport as i was looking at it left, right and centre. I observed that a more advanced lady sitting close to me was just looking at me and the passport i was holding and smiling. For my mind i say watin dey worry this one, she never see who hold passport before?

Immediately i alighted from the bus, and was walking to board another one, i heard someone calling Bros! Bros! Bros!. i turned and the lady came to me and said ''Bros, na u sitdown near me just now, my 13k dey miss from my pocket'' Mogbe, for ring road of all places . i just calmly asked her, did you see me branch anywhere else, she said no, and i told her i'm ready to be searched and i don't have your money. At this time, people were already gathering ooo and she was beginning to raise her voice! see embarrasment of the century! I was still pleading my innocence when i saw a Civil Defence Officer and i beckoned on him to please come to my aid.

The man called us and was asking us what the problem is all about. I explained all i knew and the lady did same, insisting i took her money from her pocket , See a whole me with a good job,  just because i take public transport!

The security guy then asked the lady, ''you sure say this well dressed young boy take your money?'' she said yes! just then, the agberos around were already waiting to pounce on me! probably to burn me alive. my mind quickly went to Allu 4 at Uniport. Then the security man told the lady that if she should search me, and they don't find the money, she will be seriously dealt with and if its found on me, i will go in for it! And i asked myself, what if i didn't pay in that 13k? would they have allowed me to explain anything? How come her so called missing money is still 13k? na Benin witch at work?

Just then, the lady started sturtering that it should not be like that, blah blah blah. The officer became angry with her that she just put my life on the line by accusing me falsely. The market women that have already gathered also started cursing the lady, telling her that she wanted to cause the death of an innocent young man! The officer just told me to make sure i thank God enough because i would have just been lynched to death. i was too dumbfounded to even utter any word. I just looked up and said thank you Jesus and walked away. I felt like calling for her arrest there and pressing for charges bothering on false accusation, but the fact that i just escaped death didn't even make me talk.

LESSON LEARNT
1. Always say your prayers before leaving the house. You might know where you are driving to, but you don't know who is driving towards you.
2. Please my fellow Nigerians, always DRESS PROPERLY!. My mode of dressing probably gave me some respect. If i was sagging or carrying one dirty hair style, anything could have happened before you say Linda....
3. Don't move around with too much cash and don't expose sensitive document in a public place. She probably saw me with the passport and thought i was a big catch.

Thank you and God bless.

Photo: Nigerian student in Malaysia charged for cheating two women on Facebook

Posted: 13 Jan 2016 08:00 AM PST

A Nigerian college student who allegedly cheated women on Facebook has been charged at the Magistrate Court in Malaysia.

Collins Sparklys Obianke, 33 (pictured leaving the Petaling Jaya Magistrate Court) who was charged at two separate courts here pleaded not guilty and claimed trial before magistrate Salamiah Salleh and magistrate Mohd Azali Ibrahim.
The suspected fraudster was believed to have cheated Foo Pooi Yun, 38 and S. Vanitha, 31 into making them believe that they had received a parcel containing gifts from overseas that required them to deposit RM10,500 into a bank account between Aug 24 and Sept 14 2015. The parcels were supposed to contain a handbag, laptop, mobile phone, watches, sunglasses and perfume.

He was charged under Section 420 of the Penal Code for cheating which carries 10 years jail, whipping and a fine if convicted.

The court allowed RM11,000 bail in one surety for both charges. Obianke who was represented by lawyer L. A Gomes was also ordered to surrender his passport to the court.

Deputy public prosecutor N. Sivashangari and Siti Fatimah Yahya acted for the prosecution.
