| Meet Chanel Chin, daughter of Jamaican raggae star who is now the Queen of Iwo Kingdom, Osun State Posted: 31 Mar 2016 10:43 AM PDT  Chanel Chin, the daughter of Jamaican raggae star, Ludlow Chin also known as Bobo Zaro is the queen of the Iwo Kingdom following her marriage to King Adbul Rasheed Adewale Akanbi earlier this year. King Abdul Rasheed, now known as the Imperial Oluwo of the Iwo Kingdom in Osun State, after his ascendancy on November 10, 2015, had met the 32-year-old woman in Canada, where he resided before his ascension. Bobo Zaro is known for songs such as the hit single Pain, a collaboration with Contractor and Capleton, the video of which has been seen by millions of viewers in Africa via Channel O in South Africa and the Sporah TV show via SkyTV. In an interview with The Jamaica Gleaner, Queen Chin reveals that she is very honoured to represent Jamaica in such a big way. "My ancestors were taken away as slaves, but I have returned to Africa as a queen. One's destiny cannot be altered. As a young child, I always wanted to come to Africa, but didn't know how. I feel this is a great opportunity for black people worldwide to return to their home." In a Facebook post, Emmanuel Mathias, in support of the queen, declared: "Destiny is powerful, her ancestor was taken away as slave, but she return back home as queen. Let us embrace her and tell her you are welcome back home. This is one giant step towards bringing back home our descendants that great fathers and mothers were casted away." The queen added: "Our forefathers and ancestral mothers were cast away as slaves to never return, but I want Jamaicans everywhere to know that Africa is so nice. The culture and traditions are so rich and lovely. It's truly something every black person should come and experience." Chanel explained that as queen of Iwo land, her responsibility is to always set a proper example for young girls and women in the community. Giving an insight into traditions and customs, she said her dressing and outfits are to always be conservative and respectful. "No matter what I wear, my shoulders and full legs must be covered at all times. All of my clothes are custom made to match these requirements. Also, as queen, the king and I like to regularly visit the local schools in the community to remind the children of the importance of education and excelling in all areas of their school work and examinations." The queen said her husband is the first king to actually take the time to visit the children. "We believe they are the future," she remarked. In her esteemed position as a Nigerian queen, she said she faces only minor challenges one of which is her being not fluent in the native language which is Yoruba. "I know some words. Everyday, I am still learning. Another challenge is that the food is quite different from our mouth- watering Jamaican dishes." |
| A simple post on last office sleepover, ignites moving stories of life on the grind Posted: 31 Mar 2016 10:40 AM PDT    It might look really funny but people go through this like on a daily basis in most big cities especially if they're not government employees or employed by top private companies. Will office sleepovers ever stop? Can't our lawmakers like enact a law which protects Nigerian employees from sleeping over at work under coercion or at least, if they must sleep over at the office, let their bosses (our ogas on top) sleep with them at the office to ensure proper supervision?...  Because if you ask me, I don't think this is how employees in other countries are sleeping at their offices o.

| Lagos State govt clarifies position on environmental sanitation Posted: 31 Mar 2016 10:32 AM PDT  The Lagos State Government has clarified reports making rounds on social media that the monthly environmental sanitation in the State has been outlawed, saying that the policy on the monthly exercise has not been reviewed for now. In a statement signed by the Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Mr. Steve Ayorinde, the government said the erroneous story which was attributed to the State's Commissioner for the Environment, Dr. Babatunde Adejare was inaccurate.Ayorinde said that Dr. Adejare was misquoted out of context when he indicated that the restriction of movement may be dispensed with, he did not in any way suggest that the monthly sanitation had been outlawed. Ayorinde said, "While Dr. Adejare did meet with journalists today and indicated that the restriction of movement every last Saturday of the month would ultimately be dispensed with, he did not say the monthly sanitation exercise would no longer hold in Lagos. "The last two sanitation exercises could not hold due to the JAMB examination in February and the Easter celebration in March. Nevertheless, the Lagos state government had always encouraged residents to clean their environment and observe hygienic behaviors, without necessarily having to shut the state down. "It is the wish of Lagos State government to ensure that every part of the state is clean with wastes properly disposed and this will always involve a concerted effort on the part of the government and citizens alike. "However, while it may become necessary in the near future to observe this clean-up exercise regularly without having to restrict vehicular movement, we wish to clarify that the monthly environmental exercise is still in force in Lagos State for now".

| Sunderland sack Emmanuel Eboue 3weeks after signing him after he's banned by FIFA Posted: 31 Mar 2016 10:28 AM PDT  The former Arsenal defender, aged 32, signed for the Black Cats earlier this month on a short-term deal until the end of the season. But that contract has now been torn up after it emerged that the former Ivory Coast international will not be available to feature. Eboue has been banned by FIFA for 12 months for failing to pay his former agent. He can return to action sooner than that if he pays an amount owed to his former agent Sébastien Boisseau. Eboue was initially ordered to pay the money in July 2013 and fined for failing to comply with the judgement in September 2014. He subsequently appealed against the decision to the Court of Arbitration for Sport, but his appeal was dismissed. A statement released by Sunderland confirmed the players had two weeks in which to appeal against their decision to sack him. |

| Posted: 31 Mar 2016 08:27 AM PDT  There were over 35,00 attendees on the South Lawn. Among the lucky guests were Nigerian NBA player, Emeka Okafor, his wife and beautiful daughter, Adaeze, Beyonce and Jay-Z and their 4-year-old daughter Blue Ivy, other celebrities, staff of the White House, and others The egg rolling began in 1878. Now the event includes storytelling, musical performances and tips from professional athletes on how to play basketball, tennis and other sports. There are even cooking demonstrations and yoga. This year, the first lady added a fun run to the mix. "I'm going to be running around the White House with a bunch of kids and any adults who feel like they can hang," the first lady told the crowd as the president jokingly signaled in the background that the run wasn't for him. The Obamas spoke from a balcony that overlooks the lawn with dogs Bo and Sunny and the Easter Bunny at their side. They then went out into the crowd for some hands-on play. The president read the children's book, "Where the Wild Things Are," a classic from 1963, and the Obamas acted some of the story out, marching enthusiastically with the kids as he read the line "let the wild rumpus start!"

| I think we've achieved, I won't resign- NFF boss Amaju Pinnick says Posted: 31 Mar 2016 08:01 AM PDT  Amaju highlighted his achievements with other national football teams during his tenure as enough proof his stewardship has been a success and categorically stated he won't resign as he had a four year tenure to complete. "I was elected by the Congress of the Nigeria Football Federation for a four-year team and I don't see why I should be asked to resign with over two years to serve," said Pinnick. With all due respect, I don't think we have done badly in these past one and half years that we have been in office and I have a four-year mandate which I intend to see through. When we came in we had a case running for nine months and this affected us. "In between we won Fifa Under 17 World Cup, we won the Africa Women's Championship and we also qualified for the women' s Under17 and U20 World Cups coming up this year. "I think we have achieved. Again we have very young Super Eagles players that should be the future of the game in the country. On the choice of Kaduna as venue of the Afcon match against Egypt, we picked Kaduna because of the passion the people have for the game and the fact that the venue boasts of the best pitch in the country presently and they stood behind the team all through. Aside from that, the Super Eagles have never lost a match there so it was all these that we considered on picking the Ahmadu Bello Stadium to host Egypt," he said. |

| Posted: 31 Mar 2016 07:52 AM PDT  Nigerian Thelma West is a rare gem in the diamond world as a woman in a male-dominated sector with few Africans, despite the continent being the main source of the precious rocks. The first in her family to work in diamonds, West is used to being an outsider, having been raised in a Jewish family in a country where Jews number fewer than 50,000 out of a population of around 180 million.  "I'm the only Nigerian Jewish woman in the trade, and I don't know of other African women in the business," the 32-year-old told AFP at her London-based business as she greeted customers with a broad smile and sparkling diamonds on her hands and wrists. Discretion and security are essential, with the anonymous-looking building guarded by an encrypted intercom system and a reinforced door, all under the gaze of a bank of security cameras. "I wanted to become an engineer because at that time in Nigeria, you had to choose a solid career, such as doctor, lawyer, engineer," she told AFP. But, as the saying goes, "Diamonds Are Forever" and the sparkle of the stones, which had captivated West since childhood, was an irresistible allure. "My mum had loads of jewellery," said the daughter of a Guinness drinks company employee mother and a property developer and industrialist father. "We were always playing with her jewellery box and she would always clean her jewels, and I would help." West headed for Antwerp, the world's diamond capital, aged 17 despite "not knowing anybody" in the Belgian city. There, she enrolled at the internationally renowned Hoge Raad Voor Diamant school to hone her skills. "Even though you go to school, most of your knowledge comes from working with diamonds day-to-day," she said. After trying for six months in vain to secure an internship, she was eventually taken under the wing of an Orthodox Jew diamond dealer, who worked with her every evening after school for a year. She was then recruited by one of the biggest diamond suppliers in Europe based in Spain. "It was being sent in at the deep end," she recalled. "I was 19 and I was responsible for every single diamond the company had." Teaming up with school friends from Lagos who had moved into investment banking, West set up her own business in London to trade the precious stone. Metal tongs in hand, West explained the secrets of some of her stock. "Diamonds have fire," said West. "That stone is too flat but it's got a lot of life in it, it was cut about 100 years ago," she said, pointing to one tiny rock. "This one cost just over £100,000 ($141,000, 126,000 euros), it's got a low colour but it has been cut perfectly so it reflects light in such an amazing way." Fewer than 50 clients, 12 of whom are investors, have access to West's knowledge. "I can find a diamond and call them and say 'we have to buy this diamond, trust me' and they follow me," she said. Her multinational client base — introduced by word of mouth — includes Swiss, Russians, Ghanaians, Nigerians and "a handful of French". Helped by a 10-woman team, West creates all of her company's products, which come with a lifetime guarantee. Her most ambitious creation was a custom-made necklace worth around #2 million. She plans to open a workshop in Nigeria, "where I'll train girls in the art of making jewellery". West gives little away but also said she is creating "a revolutionary tool" that will help people in her business. "That tool should be part of every diamond dealer and every shop". |
| Lady testifies how God healed her baby of heart disease, shares adorable photos of him Posted: 31 Mar 2016 07:46 AM PDT   "Oh our son Chibuikem Joshua Eze is 6months today! Words fail me but I'll say a few things. He was conceived supernaturally, and apart from one or two attacks from the enemy which God gave us victory in, there were no hassles throughout the pregnancy. He was also delivered supernaturally to the glory of God.  On the 14th day of his life, he was diagonised of a heart condition. He had 2 large holes in the heart. Oh my God, it was a scary experience. I couldn't feel my legs when I heard the doctor' s report, but as I left the room, I looked into our son's eyes and said, 'This sickness is not unto death but to showcase the Glory of God on your life son'. Immediately, scriptures started flooding my heart and I was strengthened. On our way home we laughed very well. I and my husband started building our faith in God. The paediatric cardiologist said it was impossible for the holes to close back. That we should start preparing for surgery in India. Hmmm. Hubby told her we'll make our decision after the second echo scan. My son was loosing weight due to the condition.  We were asked not to allow him suck so that he doesn't go into heart failure. So many procedures(phew). They gave him some medicines he'll take pending the surgery. I discarded the drugs after giving our son the first dose and told hubby that the Word of God is Josh's MEDICINE. I allowed him to suckle because babies are designed to suck from their mothers' breasts. We got scriptures on healing and the one that talks specifically about the heart Ezekiel 36:26. And started applying it on him by confessing it daily. I had to build my faith by reading a Kenneth E. Hagin's study book on Prayer. We just kept confessing God's word and refused to believe that anything was wrong with Josh. In January, during our church programme, (WAFBEC), Pst Matthew Ashimolowo mentioned our case and we claimed it by faith. We danced, laughed, praised and blessed the name of God for his healing. Exactly 3weeks ago, we went for the second echo scan. To God be the Glory, the scan read that Chibuikem Joshua Eze's heart has been COMPLETELY CLOSED. I wanted to hold my husband tight and scream out my lungs in excitement but the tears started rolling! The God that perfectly knitted my baby in my womb has given my son a NEW HEART! The God that makes impossible situations possible HEALED our son COMPLETELY! Oh Praise God with me! Onye n'agwo oria! Oloro ihe loro ehi! Ogbajiri igwe kpo ya nku! |

| 20 year old model jumps naked to her death rather than be raped by two men Posted: 31 Mar 2016 07:23 AM PDT  Gulay Bursali and her boyfriend had asked a property agent if there was an empty apartment they could rent for the weekend, and were given the keys to a property in Basaksehir, a district located on the European side of Istanbul. But after partying with friends in a local bar, they had gone back to the flat where they ended up being attacked by the estate agent. According to the boyfriend's statement to police, the estate agent had tricked his way inside by claiming he wanted to get some things from the apartment. Once inside, the estate agent and a friend beat him up, took his phone and locked him inside one of the rooms. They then locked the young woman in another room, and stripped her naked before she managed to open the window and climbed outside, threatening to jump unless they let her go. Eyewitnesses said they had seen the naked young woman hanging out of the window. One man told local TV: "I heard somebody screaming help, and I thought maybe it was just someone messing around. Then I saw a naked girl hanging out of the window. "She was yelling don't pull me inside, if you try to pull me inside I will jump. Those inside were shouting at her to come inside, saying they were going to call the police. "But she wasn't interested, I heard her threaten them two more times to say that she would jump, and was calling for somebody to help. "I didn't say anything, I felt if she moved even a bit she was going to fall and that was why I didn't say anything. I just called the police. While I was doing that, she jumped."The boyfriend who was freed from the flat and quizzed has now been released and police are looking for the estate agent and his friend. Below is a photo of the building she jumped from  Source- MirrorUK |
