Dog name palava: Pres. Buhari should call the IGP and AGF to order- Alibaba says

Posted: 24 Aug 2016 01:41 PM PDT

According to ace comedian, President Buhari needs to call the Inspector General of Police and the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice to order regarding the arrest of 40 year old Chinakwe Joachim Iroko who has been arraigned in court for naming his dog Buhari. Read what he wrote below...
President Mohammadu Buhari is a respected man. He is a sitting president. Nothing should be done to discredit him. Just as nothing should be done to rubbish his name. But to all his dogged supporters who are screaming blue mother because of the dog issue, hear this, this is the same path people who messed up Jonathan's presidency took.
You can not tell me that in the over weeks or so that this issue of name dog or not name dog started, the people who work with or work for PMB have not brought it to his notice. Is that what is bothering this country? How many Fulani herdsmen who have killed several Nigerians have been swiftly brought to justice like this dog naming guy?
We just have a bunch of senseless and jobless people swallowing panadol for another person's headache masquerading as patriots. Let me just say this one time here and I will not comment on this again. Mr President should cal the IGP and attorney General to order. There are more pressing issues than the name of a dog taking over the times of our courts and heating up the polity. Awon Alai ni nkon se oshi

John Kerry's unadulterated Garbage & his new-found friends- by FFK

Posted: 24 Aug 2016 01:15 PM PDT

Read his piece below...
Mr. John Kerry, the American Secretary of State, President Barack Obama's confidante and Mrs. Hilary Clinton's successor in office, came to Nigeria the other day.
The first meeting that he had was with the Sultan of Sokoto, who is the supreme leader of the Fulani Caliphate, the spiritual leader of all the Muslims of the north and the man who said, only last week, that "Christians commit wicked acts and crimes against humanity" and that "the wearing of the hijab is the right of every Muslim".
The second was with the  the 19 northern governors, 16 of whom are Muslims.

The third was our Muslim-fanatic and sharia-loving President who has refused to call his kinsmen, the Fulani herdsmen and militants, to order or to arrest and prosecute even one of them for mass murder and genocide.

On the very same day that all this was happening the Islamic Development Bank visited the President and opened their first office in Nigeria.

The government has also quietly put two separate pieces of legislation before the National Assembly for consideration which, if passed, would on the one hand legalise criminal sharia law and on the other give grazing land to the Fulani herdsmen in the Middle Belt and the south.

The Christians of Nigeria should make of all this what they will.

I wonder whether they still "love and trust" the "liberal" Hilary Clinton and Barack Obama?

I wonder if they still believe that Clinton and Obama love ALL Nigerians and not just those that they helped to get into power last year?

Think hard and think deep Christian before it is too late and you are overwhelmed.

Consider the religious war that took place in Lebanon years ago and that is taking place in Syria today.

No-one wants a war because war is the ultimate evil yet the bitter truth must be told.

And that bitter truth is as follows: if the radical salafist and wahhabist Muslim fundamentalists of the core north, with their powerful friends in Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Qatar and Obama's America push us over the edge and such a war ever happens here, it will be 100 times worse than those two put together. Worse still it will go on from generation to generation.

Do those that wish to Islamise us and wipe out our faith think it would be worth all that?

Are they prepared to pay such a terrible price by trying? The truth is that they are playing with fire.

They are playing Russian roulette with a loaded gun and the single bullet that is in the barrel is about to go off in their faces.

The Bible says that knowledge is power. How many Nigerians know that Egypt and Turkey were once nations which were 100 per cent Christian until they were islamised through the back door?

It took hundreds of years but, slowly and surely and as a consequence of the total acquisition of political power by the Muslims in both of those countries coupled with the continous display of complacency, ignorance, weakness, indolence, fear and cowardice on the part of successive Church leaders and leading members of the Christian community, they were totally and completely islamised.

Today the Christians in both Egypt and Turkey constitute a pitiful and tiny minority: 10 per cent in Egypt and 0.4 per cent in Turkey.

I hope that the new leadership of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), as they prepare for their first meeting in Maiduguri, Borno state on the 26th of August, are taking note of all this.


May God forbid that we should ever allow it to happen in Nigeria.

Yet one thing remains clear: the Christians of Nigeria are not like their counterparts that once constituted a majority in Turkey and Egypt. They are much more resilient and they are much stronger. They are also much more capable of defending themselves when pushed to the wall.

Despite consistently turning the other cheek and constantly striving to keep the peace, they are not ignorant, weak, cowardly, complacent, fearful or indolent.

When push comes to shove, unlike the Christians of Egypt and Turkey, they will not go down without a fight.

A word is enough for the wise.

As a graphic reflection of the anger that is slowly building up amongst Christians in the land, Mr. Kingsly Okah, a public commentator, wrote the following on Facebook. He wrote:

"John Kerry came for the Sultan of Sokoto's birthday and not a state visit. He came to perfect the western seed of discord foisted on us by the ouster of President Goodluck Jonathan. He came to lay credence to the American support of an Islamic agenda in Nigeria. He came to endorse genocide being commited by some reprobate Muslims whose foot soldiers are Fulani herdsnen and their grand patron Buhari".

To butress the point Mr. Aboki Galadima of the Christian Information Network, which is a powerful and fast-rising Christian platform on the social media, went further by writing the following to it's members. He wrote:

"This is such a significant event that minority nationalities and Christians all over the country  MUST digest and act.

1. John Kerry has just confirmed that spiritually, Nigeria is now an lslamic State.
 2. His inspiring attacks on corruption, bad governance and all that stuff are thrilling but only a facade. He and the government of the United States of America are here to divert attention from the real thing.

 3.They are pushing the absurd narrative that we should blame past governments, who they claim did not tackle poverty etc., for the rise of lslamic terrorism in the north and that the Sokoto Caliphate has always been the region which provides Nigeria with decent human resources for good governance.

Haba!! Please somebody advise me to halt for now. These diversions should be rejected and resisted. The legality of using lslam to kill and destroy in Nigeria must be challenged. This Network should keep this fight alive and on the front banner of national discourse".


Both Mr. Okah and Mr. Galadima  have spoken the minds of many in the Christian community. It would be most unwise for those that are now in power and their misguided friends and suporters to ignore them, attempt to silence them or to dismiss their concerns with the usual, insults, arrogance and contempt.

I say this because there can be little doubt that Mr. John Kerry spoke nothing but unadulterated garbage.


Permit me to end this contribution with the following.

Mr. Jude Chijoke Ndukwe, a writer, a public affairs analyst and one of the most courageous and formidable intellectuals of the new generation of Nigerian leaders captured the mood rather well when he wrote the following in a powerful contribution a few days ago. He wrote:

"A man named his dog 'Buhari', he was promptly arrested and prosecuted. 8 people are killed in Zamfara by Islamic fundamentalists, as usual no single arrest is made.
 Unless leaders of the Hausa-Fulani core north change their ways and mentality about religion, education, girl-child and women's rights etc, their region will remain Nigeria's most impoverished, most illiterate, most diseased, most malnourished and most backward even if Barack Obama, Angela Merkel, Vladimir Putin, Theresa May, John Kerry, Donald Trump, Hilary Clinton et al visit the Sultan on a daily basis".

Mr. Ndukwe has spoken the gospel truth. Let he  who has ears hear what the Spirit of the Lord is saying. Shalom.

Pregnant Nigerian woman brutally attacked and robbed after going into labour in London

Posted: 24 Aug 2016 12:50 PM PDT

Police today, August 24th, released an e-fit of mugger who attacked a Nigerian woman while she was in labour. The suspect punched her in the face and stole her phone as she tried to call her family.

On June 26th, Patience Chukwu, 40, had left her home in north London to take a bus to hospital and was having contractions when the man swiped her Samsung Galaxy from her hands.
 

"I took out my phone to call my sister and tell her I was on the way to the hospital when the boy came up to me. He stood in front of me and I thought he was about to ask for directions. He was standing there staring at me and then he snatched the phone from me. As he grabbed it, I grabbed him by the hood. I was trying to recover the phone. He just hit me. He went to hit me in the stomach, so I bent double and the blow hit me in the face."

The attacker got on his BMX to flee but Ms Chukwu grabbed him. "He was dragging me and I was screaming," she said. 
"Then he hit me for a third time and I went blind for a short time. So I let go and he was gone. 
"It was horrifying. I sat there afterwards shaking and shivering"

Ms Chukwu was initially treated on the street by police after the assault, which took place on a Sunday at about 10am in Leadale Road, Stamford Hill. She was taken to Homerton hospital, where medics took her into theatre for a Caesarean section after being unable to detect her child's heartbeat.

Her son, Kamsi Kishi, was born hours later with complications. He suffers from seizures, which police today said are a result of the attack. 
Ms Chukwu was not able to visit her child, now eight weeks old, until the next morning and could not take him home for a week while doctors kept him under observation. 

Police have now released an e-fit of the suspect. Investigating officer Detective Inspector Paul Ridley admitted:

"The e-fit is our last line of enquiry. We've exhausted everything else. We're appealing for information from friends, relatives and even criminal associates. Given the nature of the act, I'm sure a lot of criminals would have been shocked. We have a woman on the brink of giving birth subjected to an attack like that in broad daylight just for her mobile phone."

The suspect is described as a thin black man aged between 18 and 21 with short dark hair. At the time of the attack, he was wearing a green hooded jumper. Ms Chukwu, who also has a four-year-old daughter, Kika, said:

"I didn't expect that a heavily pregnant woman in labour would be robbed. My belly would have been huge. As he was robbing me I was begging him, 'Please, I'm in labour, please'. 
"That boy is wicked and I want  them to catch him before he attacks someone else."

Ms Chukwu also thanked members of the Jewish neighbourhood watch group Shomrim who rushed to her aid following the ordeal. Pinchas Paksher, who was first on the scene to help the woman shortly after the attack, said:

"The thief was heartless, targeting the most vulnerable in society, the victim was on the phone seeking help to arrange transport to hospital when her phone was snatched. I urge anyone with information to call police or Crimestopper"

Posted: 24 Aug 2016 10:07 AM PDT

Joseph Yobo,35, has agreed to join Northern club, Kano Pillars after the NPFL club beat three other clubs to his signature.

Alhaji Shehu Dikko, Chairman of the League Management Company, LMC, in an interview with Completesportsnigeria on Tuesday revealed that Kano Pillars is the club that appealed most to the footballer and can meet his demands.

"Kano Pillars", Dikko replied when Completesportsnigeria.com asked him which club Yobo will eventually play for in his celebrated return to the Nigerian domestic top flight.
 
When asked further on when Yobo will turn out for Kano Pillars, who have won four league titles, Dikko said;

American University in Afghanistan currently under attack, lecturers and students take cover

Posted: 24 Aug 2016 10:02 AM PDT

Exchange of gunfire between armed policemen and attackers happened a few minutes ago at the American University in Afghanistan. Police and special forces have now surrounded the campus on the western outskirts of Afghanistan's capital city and are trying to ensure no student or innocent person gets hurt. Teachers and hundreds of students have taken cover in classrooms and safe rooms.


The identity of the attackers is unknown while the number of students and lecturers inside the university at the moment is currently unknown.

The U.S. State Department this morning (evening Nigerian time) acknowledged reports of the attack on their official Twitter account.
"Reports of attack on American University in Kabul. Exercise caution, avoid unnecessary movement in the area & monitor news for updates," the agency said.

Massoud Hossaini, a photographer for The Associated Press, tweeted that he is trapped inside.

"Help we are stuck inside AUAF and shooting flollowed [sic] by Explo this maybe my last tweets," he wrote.
The gunfire as at press time has stopped but police forces are still sweeping the area. This attack comes weeks after lecturers were kidnapped from the university. No group has yet claimed responsibility for the attack.

Betty Irabor writes about women in abusive relationships...and Maje Ayida tells her to also talk about men in abusive relationships

Posted: 24 Aug 2016 09:35 AM PDT

Yesterday, Genevieve Magazine publisher Betty Irabor took to her IG page to write about women in abusive relationship and why it's important for them to get out! An interesting & eye opening piece.

But what caught our eye was a comment from Toke Makinwa's ex-husband, Maje Ayida. He asked Mrs Irabor to also share her views on men in abusive relationships. Trying to tell us something? Read the rest of what Betty Irabor wrote and Maje's comment after the cut...


As they left, the husband jeered shouting; "old cargo, you and your children will soon come back begging, which man will look at you?" But this young lady had had enough and was determined never to return. She braced up to become a breadwinner and joined her sister in her factory. It was while working in this factory that she met a man(he'd never been married)who fell in love with her and married her along with her 3 children. Old cargo??? So who was chuckling??? 
Women in abusive relationships face a lot of emotional manipulation which stops them from leaving. They are told they are useless and nobody will look at them. On their own, they are afraid of the unknown world ahead. They worry about the judgement of society and the stigma of being single mothers. The result is they "hang In there" until they they become profile pictures and Internet stories of another woman butchered by her husband. 
Every woman in an abusive relationships needs to realize that being married by fire by force is not whAt true marriage is about... It is nothing short of self delusion to manage a bad relationship just to please society. You have to know your worth and believe that you are deserving of more. You are not an old cargo!! There's life after one bad marriage! Your self worth is not tied to one bad choice you made in a marriage partner. When you have the grace to move on, do move on. You deserve more.

'Sex with him was hot, he has the body of a champion but his male parts don't match'- Usain Bolt's Rio student lover says

Posted: 24 Aug 2016 09:14 AM PDT

Jady Duarte, the girl who shared snaps of Usain Bolt cuddling and kissing her in bed while in Rio during his birthday celebrations has now revealed that the Olympic champion wooed her after flashing his toned muscles and six packs but that 'down there' he's not really as endowed as everyone thinks.
Jady also revealed that he doesn't speak Portuguese, so he had to use google translate to communicate with her and whisked her into his hotel room in the games village using a team bus.
According to her, they allegedly made love in a small single bed, while listening to Rihanna's 'Work work' and the sex reportedly lasted over two one-hour sessions.


According to Jady they met in Rio's upmarket club All In, and Bolt made his way over to her group of friends, before he flashed his impressive six-pack.
"He was stood in front of us and suddenly he pulled up his shirt and showed us his six pack,"  Jady, Mother of two told Mail Online. "I had never seen anything like it. I just had to reach out and stroke it."
Bolt then reportedly asked his bodyguard to invite her over to join him, and while she was hesitant at first, she eventually met him again at the end of the night.
'He's dark, tall, muscly - just my type - but there were so many beautiful girls there I never imagined I would be the one. The bodyguard said Bolt wants you to come over. I didn't go at first because I was playing hard to get. Most girls would go over there like a shot but I wanted to make him work. When I was waiting in line to pay at the end of the night he sent the bodyguard over again. He said "why are you not following him? This is Usain Bolt".
But the pair bypassed security by hopping on to an official bus that was quickly waved through the gates.
'They never asked me for any sort of pass or my ID,' said the young Brazilian beauty. They didn't even question him, I guess, because he's Bolt. We had two other guys with us and I think they were athletes because they also had muscly, fit bodies.I was surprised that he didn't take me to an expensive hotel but I didn't pay much attention because we were kissing the entire way.
'The room was tidy but he had two single beds and they were so small that his feet must have been poking out the end when he slept.'
'It was mainly just small talk and him telling me how beautiful I was,' she said. 'We used Google but I didn't need a translator to tell me that he wanted sex. 
"Finally we were waiting in line for a taxi and he smiled at me and did the famous victory pose so I was in no doubt who he was," she added. "That's was when I decided it was time to give in to him. He pulled me into the taxi and gave me an incredible kiss. It was very passionate and hot - we were devouring one another. He has the body of a champion although his male parts do not match - he is just like a regular guy," she claimed.

She claims Bolt then gave her a 100 Euro bank note to get a taxi, and promised to call her to arrange another date during the Paralympics.
"I really thought we had something going, But now I can see that he picks up women as quickly as he picks up gold medals. I knew who he was from TV. My mother has been screaming during all his races because she's such a huge fan,'

Unidentified woman's chopped body parts found dumped in Nairobi (graphic)

Posted: 24 Aug 2016 09:04 AM PDT

A woman was killed and her body parts dumped in Umoja Estate in Nairobi, Kenya. The woman's head, hands and legs were found late Monday August 22, and taken to the City Mortuary but the torso has not been located. 

The body parts were found in a black plastic bag and thrown in a thicket near Fadhili Primary School.
Police suspect that the victim was killed in a house a few days ago and stored in a refrigerator before her chopped body parts were dumped. Police are at the moment trying to find her torso which is missing.

"From the look of things, the killer or killers must have used a hacksaw or a very sharp object," a senior police officer at the Buruburu Police Station.

The officer in charge of investigations in Buruburu division Jeremiah Ikiao said no suspect had been arrested and urged the public to also volunteer any information they have to help in the investigations.

"We were called to the scene by residents who discovered the body parts and we took them away,"  he said. No suspect has been arrested. He said they have taken finger prints to help identify the deceased woman from the registration of persons department.

Fayose condemns police invasion of Kwakwanso’s house

Posted: 24 Aug 2016 08:51 AM PDT

Read the press statement below...
Ekiti State Governor, Mr Ayodele Fayose has condemned the Tuesday's invasion and seal off of the residence of former Kano State Governor, Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso by armed policemen to prevent a mass wedding programme, reiterating his earlier warning that the All Progressives Congress (APC) and its supporters have built dictatorship round President Buhari by not joining other Nigerians to condemn his undemocratic acts.
The governor, who said he was more concerned about the rape of democracy and the rule law under the APC government of President Buhari, added that; "The fact that Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso is of the ruling APC should worry well-meaning Nigerians because it appears no one will be spared by this anti-democracy agents that have taking over Nigeria."

In a statement issued in Ado-Ekiti on Wednesday, by the Special Assistant to governor on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka, Governor Fayose wondered where it was written in the laws of Nigeria that Nigerians must obtain Police permit to hold wedding ceremony or even to assemble in private residence. The statement read;

"When they invaded the Akwa Ibom State Government House with armed men of the Department of State Security (DSS), I raised alarm then and I did warn that Nigeria was being returned to 1984 when President Buhari ruled the country like a maximum ruler. "When I said Nigerians irrespective of their political parties should rise in condemnation of the President Buhari's government emerging dictatorship, many of our friends in the APC opted to keep silent. Some even hailed the Department of State Security (DSS) when the service invaded the Ekiti State House of Assembly and abducted a member of the House.

"Last week Wednesday, when the police sealed off the venue of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) National Convention in Port-Harcourt and blocked the road leading to the Old Presidential Lodge of the Rivers State Government House where I and other PDP leaders were accommodated, our friends in the APC kept silent. Some even hailed the police! "However, as a Nigerian and ardent lover of democracy and rule of law, I have elected to once again condemn the yesterday's armed policemen invasion and seal off of the private residence of Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso and I hope that this time around, our friends in the APC will realise that no one will be spared by the time this emerging dictatorship reaches its peak.

"Nigerians should realise that with the bullying of Kwankwaso, a two term governor, former minister of defence and serving senator, it is now very clear that the APC government will even be intolerant of opposition within the party, not to talk of external opposition and men of good conscience should prevail on President Buhari to caution the security agencies to be mindful of foisting tyranny on Nigerians."

A woman on Thursday, August 4th, delivered a set of quadruplets, 3 boys and one girl, during the just concluded 64th Annual Convention of the Redeemed Christian Church of God held at the Redemption Camp, Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, Ogun State.  It was the first time in the history of the convention that a woman would give birth to quadruplets.

In celebration of their birth, wife of the General Overseer, Pastor Mrs Folu Adeboye has taken up full responsibility for the children. She has also provided a well-furnished two (2) bedroom flat in one of the estates on the Redemption Camp while plans are in place to secure a good job for the children's father.

A total of 67 children were born same Thursday, 40 are boys while 27 are girls. Pastor Enoch Adeboye describe the birth as unique.
"For the first time in the history of our conventions and our maternity centre, a woman gave birth to four babies," he said.
