Obasanjo Bids PDP Good Night, Trusts Buhari Won't Fail Nigerians

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo today said he has bid goodnight to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) which he was a founding member. 

Speaking to journalists in Jalingo, the Taraba State capital, while assessing some projects initiated by his administration in the state, former President, Olusegun Obasanjo on Friday, bade the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) good night, saying he will not return to the party, adding that he terminated his membership of PDP in February last year.

Commenting on the lingering crisis in the party, Obasanjo said he had already bade PDP good night and cannot return to say good evening.
“In the part of the country where I come from, there is a saying that you cannot say ‘good night’ and come back to say ‘good evening’ in the same place. So for me, it is good night for the Peoples Democratic Party and that’s all,”he said.

The former head of state expressed confidence that President Muhammadu Buhari will surmount the present challenges confronting the country.

“So far Buhari has not disappointed us. I trust him (Buhari), he will not fail Nigerians. I know he will overcome the challenges the country is currently facing,” the ex-President said.

He however, urged the President to complete the hydroelectric project on the Mambilla Plateau in Taraba.

5 Ways to Help Him Last Longer in Bed

Its a well known fact that numerous men have an easier time achieving climax than ladies. That, combined with the way premature discharge is the most widely recognized sexual issue in men under 40 years of age, implies you may frequently find yourself unsatisfied once he's done. It can be a pain in the a$$ to understand his fun is over before you've hardly started the real deal. 


While you could inspire him to finish the job by using any other means, another good plan is to help him last more in bed. Here are five techniques to attempt.

1. Take it slow

To get your guy to last longer, have him start slow, Men's Fitness magazine suggests. Tell him to aim for one thrust every few seconds, then gradually (like, every two minutes) take it up a notch, to the point where there's a thrust every second or so. If he feels like he's going to come, he should stop thrusting and wait a few seconds until he can control himself and start up again.

2. Do it again and again

A round of vigorous foreplay before s*x can work wonders, according to Cosmopolitan magazine. Not only can you orgasm, which might make you more likely to come again during s*x, but getting him to ejaculate before the main event should delay the finish line. For many guys, it takes a certain amount of time to "recharge," which means you should have plenty of time to be satisfied.

3. Try pelvic floor exercises

You've probably heard of Kegels, which are exercises that help strengthen your pelvic floor muscles and improve your chances of orgasm. It turns out, these same exercises can help treat premature ejaculation in men. Research presented recently at the European Association of Urology in Stockholm found that simple pelvic floor exercises improved premature ejaculation rates after 12 weeks in most men. Try doing the exercises together for maximum benefits.

4. Use a condom

Ask a guy who doesn't like wearing condoms why he feels that way and he's bound to tell you, "It doesn't feel as good." S*x with a condom definitely feels different, and you can take advantage of this to get your guy to last longer. The sensations on his penis will be slightly weaker with a condom on, which might translate to longer s*x sessions.

5. Switch up the position

If your guy has a go-to move that always gets him off, switch it up. Cosmopolitan suggests missionary or girl-on-top, which can help many men delay the finale. (Skip doggy-style.)

Man Abandons His 5-year-old Son During Police Chase...(See His Reason)

A 27-year-old man, Jerry McCabe from Dania Beach, Florida, ran away from police during an attempted traffic stop fled from his car. He took off running with his 5-year-old son.

According to police he kept urging his son to run faster but when they got to a barrier, he ditched his son and jumped over a barbed wire because his son couldn’t keep up.

A Pembroke Pines police arrest report shows that McCabe was driving a Dodge Charger without a valid license when an officer tried to stop him but McCabe refused to stop and led the officer on a car chase, weaving in and out of traffic.

According to fl39.com, eventually, the car’s two driver’s side tires blew out, so McCabe and his son got out and ran away, the report said.

Police said the officer chased after them on foot and ordered them to stop, but they kept running. During the pursuit, the officer heard McCabe yelling at the boy to keep up.

McCabe left the boy and jumped over the barbed-wire fence while the officer stayed behind and stayed with the boy.

While the officer watched the boy, a security guard at a nearby building who witnessed the chase agreed to watch the boy, so the officer continued to chase McCabe again.

Police said McCabe later surrendered after he saw that the officer was still chasing him.

After he was arrested, McCabe told police that he was taking his son to get a physical for football and was running from the officer because he didn’t have a valid license and had marijuana in his car, the report said.

McCabe, was arrested on Tuesday on multiple charges, including child abuse, child neglect, one count of driving with a suspended license, resisting arrest without violence, possession of marijuana and fleeing with disregard of safety to persons or property.

Outrage After Pakistani Officials Poison to Death Over 700 Dogs (See Photos)

Officials have poisoned hundreds of dogs in the southern Pakistani city of Karachi in the latest effort to curb a population of strays that attack thousands of people each year in the teeming mega-city of some 20 million.

Dog corpses were lying along the streets of the 20-million city, and the city employees have been disposing of them. Officials estimated the citywide operation that started this week had culled thousands of strays but did not have a full accounting for all six city districts.

"At least 700 dogs have been killed only in two areas of Karachi's south in the last couple of days," said Sattar Javed, a spokesman for the municipal authority.

The periodic culling of dogs using poison tablets hidden in chicken meat has drawn criticism from animal rights activists in Pakistan, but another city official, Mohammad Zahid, said it was necessary because packs of strays posed a threat to residents.

Last year, Karachi's Jinnah Hospital treated 6,500 people bitten by dogs and this year so far it has seen 3,700 cases, said Dr. Seemin Jamali, head of the emergency room.

"At least 700 dogs have been killed only in two areas of Karachi's south in the last couple of days," Sattar Javed, a spokesman for the municipal authority, confirmed to Reuters.



Here’s how the authorities kill the strays: they hide poison tablets in chicken meat, and give the meat to the animals.

The Pakistani animal rights activists have spoken out against the practice, but the city authorities said there is no other way to cope with the growing population of dogs, which attack the locals.

According to stats, last year, Karachi's Jinnah Hospital treated 6,500 people bitten by dogs, and this year saw about 3,700 incidents, according to Dr Seemin Jamali, head of the emergency room, as quoted by Reuters.

Officials don’t have the exact estimates of the total number of strays killed at the moment. However, they say that thousands should be culled in total.

Poverty is Smelling in Nigeria, Rule Well or Be Voted Out - Father Mbaka Sends Strong Warning to President Buhari

 

Popular Enugu Catholic Priest, Rev. Father Ejike Mbaka, has criticized and sent a strong warning to President Muhammadu Buhari for the economic hardship in Nigeria and as such may be voted out in the next presidential election if he doesn't do the needful.

The fiery cleric who became controversially famous after his prediction that Goodluck Jonathan would be swept away by the wind of change in the last presidential election, has blasted the president over the economic hardship sweeping the country resulting from what he defined as poor leadership under the Buhari-led government.

The catholic priest said that the president should know that Nigerians may vote him out in the next presidential election, adding that people are clearly getting tired, continuing that he campaigned against the ex-president Jonathan because of the extensive corruption in the last administration in the hope that Buhari’s government would be better after his avowed declaration to fight corruption.

“No nation could survive when the cankerworm of corruption eats deep into its social fabric as was witnessed in the past administration which informed his interest and desire to opt for a change.

“The change which eventually came under the leadership of Buhari is not helping matters as poverty is 'smelling' in Nigeria. Landlords are lamenting while tenants are hungry and frustrated,” Mbaka said.

Unbelievable Story How a Millionaire Foolishly Turned into a Beggar (PHOTO)

This is the shocking story of how a millionaire foolishly squandered his money to now languish in abject poverty. This story will serve as a great lesson for many of us. The story of Miano Kaminja is a touching one. The story was published by Kenyans and reads:

"An elderly man in Kirinyaga County is languishing in abject poverty despite having raked in millions of shillings from a compensation plan by the government.

70-year old Miano Kaminja, a former peasant farmer, was paid Sh7 Million as compensation for his two-and-half acre piece of land that was used for the construction of Rukenya Irrigation Dam in Kirinyaga, Kenya.

He was among 600 families who shared Sh5 Billion from the Government in 2013 to pave the way for construction of the Sh19 Billion dam.

Upon receiving his share, Mr Kaminja squandered the fortune in a span of three months through unplanned lavish spending, rolling himself back to poverty.

Speaking to a local daily, Mr Kaminja revealed that after receiving the money, he immediately chased away his two sons and wife, then relocated to a hotel where he paid Sh3,000 per day.

The 70-year old man, who now lives under the mercy of friends and relatives, also bought himself a car which he ensured was parked at the spot reserved for the hotel owner despite having no one to drive it.

Tragedy struck upon learning that he had run out of cash. Kaminja in a panic mode rushed to his car, ignited it and accelerated to full speed despite having no driving skills.

The result was a fatal accident where he sustained serious injuries after crashing into a concrete wall.

He was admitted to a local private health facility, which discharged him prematurely upon realising that he was in no position to foot the bill.

Prior to his downfall, some fake friends who emerged out of the blue cashed in from Kaminja's compensation proceeds and entertained female companions in posh local entertainment spots.

According to the distraught former farmer, people masquerading as land valuers were not left behind in siphoning cash off his bag of money.

The con artists extorted money from the old man by claiming that the Sh7 Million awarded to him was 'too little' and the government should have paid him Sh64 Million, a lie Kaminja still believes. The conmen gave him fake valuation documents purporting he deserved a Sh64 Million payoff.

“When I get the Sh64 million I will buy a big car and build a big hotel,” Kaminja is quoted by The Standard.

The Sh5 Billion compensation was based on the size of land and development, and Kaminja was among those who received the least amount as his land did not have any substantial development.

Kaminja's fate also befell a number of other people from the area who, like the 70-year-old, blew their monies plunging into a life of misery and tears."

I Sold My Son For N300,000 Due To Poverty – Arrested Young Mother Cries Out (PHOTO)

 

This 18-year-old girl pictured above, Okike Ezinne from Isu Mbaneze in Ohaozara Local Government Area of Ebonyi State has been arrested by the Enugu State Police Command for allegedly selling her baby identified as Chisom Raphal for N300,000. She was arrested on Tuesday.

According to spokesman of the police in Enugu State, SP Ebere Amaraizu, Ezinne blamed her bosom friend for tricking her into selling off her baby.

Amaraizu disclosed in the statement that the girl had the baby out of wedlock and decided to keep it but was reportedly tricked to sell off the baby by her friend, one Promise Godwin, a 20-year old single mother.

He said that the suspect narrated that when things were no longer going smoothly for her at home, her bosom friend identified as one Promise Godwin, also from Isu Mbaneze Ohazara Local Government Area of Ebonyi State approached her to come to Enugu with the child with a promise that somebody was going to take care of Ezinne and little Chisom Raphael.

“According to Ezinne, she later joined the friend in Enugu where she secured an accommodation at Coal Camp axis but later found out that the friend has abandoned her husband and was into commercial s*x work at Four corners junction, Enugu to make ends meet.

“Sometime in the month of March 2016, Promise Godwin perfected the purchase deal of little Chisom at the rate of N300, 000 with 46-year-old Gloria Okafor from Uturu but married to now late Sunday Okafor of Umudi Lokpanta in Abia State whose major occupation is to get and sell babies to prospective buyers within Uturu, lokpanta and its environs,” the police spokesman said.

Amaraizu said that police gathered that following the establishment of the sales understanding between Ezinne and Promise with Gloria Okafor, little Chisom Raphael was taken to Limca bus stop at Okigwe, Imo State, along Enugu Port-Harcourt Expressway, Okigwe where Chisom was sold to Gloria Okafor at the rate of N300, 000 and money given to the mother of Chisom in cash.

“On coming back to Enugu, the suspects shared the money as follows:N200, 000 to Ezinne, the mother of the sold child, N50, 000 to Promise, while the remaining N50, 000 went to the motorcyclist working with Godwin Promise at the Four Corner Brothel where she is staying”, he added.

According to Amaraizu, Gloria Okafor, having been nabbed, revealed how she bought the child from the duo of Ezinne and Promise but maintained that the child was later handed over to the buyer that same day and that the buyer was now at large and further revealed that Godwin Promise, who is already 8-month pregnant and also with a child of one year and a month, has also perfected arrangement to sell off the baby whom she named Chiadikaobi to a prospective buyer before they were nabbed by the operatives of the Central Police station of the Nigeria Police, Enugu State command.

The PPRO added that the “suspects are now helping police in their investigations and begging for forgiveness but however blamed the situation to act of satan.

“The state Commissioner of Police, Emmanuel Ojukwu, has advised youths to watch the friend they keep in order to become meaningful to themselves and the entire society.”

Why Men Really Prefer Women With Massive Bums...Scientists Reveal the Answer

According to an article published by Dailymail, scientists have now proffered reasons why men prefer women with massive bums. Modern man's preferences for women with a curvy backside has been traced back to prehistoric influences.

It found the 'theoretically optimal angle of lumbar curvature,' is a 45.5 degree curve from back to buttocks.

This allowed ancestral women to better support, provide for, and carry out multiple pregnancies.

'What's fascinating about this research is that it is yet another scientific illustration of a close fit between a s*x-differentiated feature of human morphology — in this case lumbar curvature — and an evolved standard of attractiveness,' said the study's co-author David Buss, a University of Texas at Austin psychology professor.

'This adds to a growing body of evidence that beauty is not entirely arbitrary, or 'in the eyes of the beholder' as many in mainstream social science believed, but rather has a coherent adaptive logic.'

The research was published online in Evolution and Human Behavior, and consisted of two studies. The first looked at vertebral wedging, an underlying spinal feature that can influence the actual curve in women's lower backs. About 100 men rated the attractiveness of several manipulated images displaying spinal curves ranging across the natural spectrum.

Men were most attracted to images of women exhibiting the hypothesized optimum of 45 degrees of lumbar curvature.

'This spinal structure would have enabled pregnant women to balance their weight over the hips,' Lewis said.

'These women would have been more effective at foraging during pregnancy and less likely to suffer spinal injuries.

'In turn, men who preferred these women would have had mates who were better able to provide for fetus and offspring, and who would have been able to carry out multiple pregnancies without injury.'

The second study addressed the question of whether men prefer this angle because it reflects larger buttocks, or whether it really can be attributed to the angle in the spine itself.

Approximately 200 men were presented with groups of images of women with differing buttock size and vertebral wedging, but maintaining a 45.5-degree curve. 

Men consistently preferred women whose spinal curvature was closer to optimum regardless of buttock size, the researchers found.

'This enabled us to conclusively show that men prefer women who exhibit specific angles of spinal curvature over buttock mass,' said the study's co-author Eric Russell, a visiting researcher from UT Arlington.

This morphology and men's psychological preference toward it have evolved over thousands of years, and they won't disappear over night.

'This tight fit between evolutionary pressures and modern humans' psychology, including our standards of attractiveness, highlights the usefulness that an evolutionary approach can have for expanding our knowledge not just of the natural sciences, but also the social sciences,' Lewis said.

APC Governors Meet President Buhari On State Of The Nation

 

The All Progressive Congress (APC) governors across the nation met with President Muhammadu Buhari and vice president Yemi Osinbajo on Tuesday in the villa.

A source at the meeting said, “The governors sympathized with the President for working with a National Assembly that is largely seen as unfriendly.

“Particularly, they observed that in the absence of the President of the Senate, the next person is his deputy. They therefore agreed that it was an anomalous situation for a PDP person to continue as the Deputy President of the Senate.

“They sought and got the President’s permission to intervene in the matter. They argued that the truth of the matter is that rarely is there any Senator that emerged without the backing of their governors, hence the governors have some level of influence on the federal lawmakers.”

Also, Mr President and the governors are worried over the crisis brewing in the House of Reps with shocking revelations and allegations.

Governor Okorocha said, “We have come to reassure Mr. President that APC governors are solidly behind him in his fight against corruption; his fight against insurgents and all his laudable projects.

“We are concerned about the incessant happenings in the National Assembly and we have taken it upon ourselves to look into the matter; that is the crisis in the National Assembly.

“We are going to look into the matter because we need a strong and vibrant National Assembly to make things move fast in the country.”

INEC Is Messing Up Nigeria's Democracy - Fayose

 

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) said they won't go ahead with election when people's lives are at risk, just the way people were being killed during election in the past and nothing happened to those who killed Corp members and others.

But Governor Ayo Fayose of Ekiti State has a different position.

Mr. Fayose has said that the Independent National Electoral Commission is messing up democracy in the country. The governor described the postponement of the Rivers State rerun elections and the alleged manipulation of the Imo North Senatorial election as a dangerous signal of what Nigerians should expect in 2019.

He wondered how INEC that could not conduct elections conclusively in just one state would be able to conduct elections in the entire country in 2019.

The governor, in a statement issued on Tuesday by his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka, reiterated his fear that “democracy in Nigeria is being threatened by INEC and this should call for national and international reflection.”

Fayose said, “President Buhari should ask himself if he would have been elected if the system then did not allow free and fair elections. The INEC Chairman, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, should also be worried if there would have been an INEC to head if the 2015 elections had been inconclusive.”

I Rejected Obasanjo's N50million Third Term Bribe - Senator Rubbishes Ex-President

Former President of Nigeria, Olusegun Obasanjo has been exposed after by the deputy Senate leader, Bala Ibn Na’Allah, who accused the former president of making allegations he cannot back up with evidence.

He further revealed that he rejected N50 million from the former president after he tried to bribe Senate members during his administration to favour him for a third term.

This is coming after Obasanjo on Monday said the National Assembly was filled with thieves.

Mr. Na’Allah, a former member of the House, who now represents Kebbi south district, said in a statement on Tuesday that he took exception to the impression that there were no men of integrity in the National Assembly.

“I am respectfully taking exception to the statement which I express the hope is not true,” the lawmaker said. “To start with it is not in my character to join issues with an elder statesmen who have had the privilege of superintending over the affairs of our great country Nigeria.

“This exception has become necessary in view of the enormity of the alleged statement to my person and integrity.”

“If former President Obasanjo can come out with one proven record of corruption against me as a person, I promise to vacate my seat as a senator of the federal republic of Nigeria.

“For the records, I was the only member from Kebbi State who did not find it worthy at that time of collecting the sum of N50 million as an inducement to subvert the constitution and provide a constitutional framework for the third term ambition of President Obasanjo.

“I find this statement if it is true to be reckless and terrifying.

“The implications of the statement is to say that the entire over 170 million Nigerians have not elected a single person with integrity among the 469 members of the National Assembly.

“This is definitely rhapsodic and does not conform to common sense and reason,” he added.

Amaechi, Wike in Handshake During Peace Meeting on Rivers-rerun (Photos)

Rotimi Amaechi, Nyesom Wike and Lawal Daura

A peace deal was brokered by the acting Inspector General of Police, Ibrahim Idris, and the Director-General of the State Security Service, Lawal Daura between top politicians in Rivers State namely the Minister of Transport, Rotimi Chibuike Amaechi, NIMASA boss, Dakuku Peterside and Governor Nyesom Wike.

The police spokesperson, Donald Awunah said in a statement Tuesday evening with pictures released by Vanguard newspaper.

Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, and his predecessor, Rotimi Amaechi, committed themselves to peace in the oil rich state on the same day rerun elections in the state were postponed for fear of violence, according to Premium Times.



The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), in statement by its secretary, Augusta Ogakwu, announced the suspension of the National Assembly and State Assembly rerun elections earlier slated for July 30, after risk assessments and consultations with security agencies and relevant bodies.

“The reports of these assessments have been almost unanimous in concluding that the prevailing security situation in most parts of the state where elections are to hold are not conducive for peaceful elections,” INEC said.

“In the Commission’s view, the rhetorics of some of the political actors, the incidence of violence in a number of local government areas where these elections are scheduled and the atmosphere of fear and intimidation created present danger in proceeding with elections as earlier scheduled.”

Earlier, INEC conducted the rerun legislative electors on March 19, but “regrettably, the elections in all three Senatorial districts and several other of these constituencies could not be concluded due to violent disruption of the process which necessitated the suspension of the exercise in all the senatorial districts and affected constituencies”.

INEC urged continuous efforts by “respected” individuals, organisations and leaders to douse tension and ensure conducive atmosphere, adding it has responsibility to ensure safety of electorate, electoral personnel and observers.

Pastor Chased Out During Service By His Members Over Money Issue in Lagos (PHOTOS)

Members of Christ Apostolic Church in Abule-Ijesha, Yaba, Lagos State and their Pastor, Michael Oni, had a serious disagreement last Sunday and at then end of the brawl, the Pastor was thrown out of the Church.

The normal program had started with rendering of different worship songs by all in attendance, until an unnamed man mounted the podium to disrupt the day’s activities. This unholy act ended in a brawl over disagreements on the disbursement of church money and the pastor's monthly salary.

A church member, Badejo Adelu accused the pastor of instigating the members against themselves and also taking away money belonging to the church without approval. "He has been giving the church problem, causing chaos in the church and fighting members, insulting and raising bad covenant between members", he told TVC.

A member of the church who displayed the transfer letter of the pastor, Olusegun Omotajo gave the account of the real cause of brawl and disagreement in the church.

He said the pastor was transferred to their church from leadership of the church in Ibadan, Oyo State. He said the letter showed that the pastor was a level 7 step one officer but the pastor insisted on receiving the salary of a level 9 step nine officer.

He said the church who wanted peace further decided to pay the pastor as a level 8 step one officer and then paid his January to March salary in May, but this the said pastor did not still agree with them.







In his defense, the accused, Pastor Micheal Oni said all he demanded was the involvement of his attention in the church’s account running. He said even though they failed to show him account activities of the church prior to his arrival, but they are yet to show him the account since he took over the pastoral duties in the church.

"I asked them that I want to see the account of the church which they failed to render. I told them they should not spend any money without approval by me, they refused", he explained.

He said he had ordered them to stop all spending involving the church till issues are been taken care of from the leadership of the church in Ibadan, Oyo State.

Governor of Kaduna to Demolish 40 Churches and Other Buildings....See Shocking Details

A large crowd of residents of Gbagyi Villa – a suburb of Kaduna metropolis – on March 17, trooped out, carrying placards in protest against demolition notices issued to them by Kaduna State Urban Planning Development Authority, KASUPDA. The residents said they had been living in the community for decades and had acquired the necessary titles to the lands and, as such, were jolted by the intention of Kaduna State government to eject them.

Mr. Chris Obodum, Chairman, Gbagyi Community, later told journalists that the community boasted of about 3,500 buildings, 40 churches, 16 schools and 35,000 residents. He narrated: ‘The story of Gbagyi Villa is easy to understand. For hundreds of years, the area has been inhabited by the Gbagyi people.

However, sometime in 2010, a suit was instituted against some members of the local community by Kaduna Polytechnic. In the course of the court proceedings, the polytechnic sought for settlement out of court. The court obliged and the matter was settled amicably.

“Thereafter the Kaduna State government issued a White Paper to that effect and the Surveyor General prepared a survey map demarcating the polytechnic land from that of the community.

“The polytechnic accepted the resolution of the dispute and, thereafter, proceeded to erect a concrete wall fence demarcating its land from that of the community.

“From the foregoing, it is clear to us that the polytechnic is not laying claim to Gbagyi Villa and has no pending case against us. For the Kaduna State government to claim that our community, after all these years of existence, sits on the polytechnic land is incomprehensible to us.

“Furthermore, the allegation by KASUPDA of non-possession of planning permits is false. KASUPDA knows this. It is just a veil to deceive the public and to obscure the true motive of government,”

Shortly after the community headed to Kaduna State High Court, presided over by Hon. Justice Hannatu Balogun, who granted an injunction stopping “the state government, the Attorney General of the state, Kaduna State Urban Planning and Development Authority KASUPDA), respectively as respondents, either by themselves or through their employees, staff, servants, agents, proxies or whosoever, from demolishing or destroying the applicants’ buildings,” until the case was disposed.

The court order caused wild jubilation in the community, returning hope. Last Thursday, five months later, as Governor Nasir El-Rufai visited the place to see for himself, anxious residents lined the streets, not knowing what to make of the visit. But many of the residents, who spoke to Sunday Vanguard before the arrival of “Russau” (‘demolisher’ in Hausa tongue – which seems to elate El-Rufai), said they were sure that when the governor saw the quality and number of buildings in the community, he would be moved by compassion to forget any planned demolition in the estate.

I Won't Stop Criticizing Buhari, APC Government – Fayose

 

The embattled Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose on Friday said he would not stop being vocal in his criticism of the All Progressives Congress-led federal government despite the corruption cases against him.

Fayose was the guest on a personality programme on Fresh FM in Ibadan where he alleged that APC had deployed certain powers to intimidate him because of his criticism of the Federal Government.

Talking tough, Fayose said:

“I am being persecuted because I am vocal. Why some of us are talking today is because if we betray the masses, God will not forgive us. That is why people like us have to exhibit courage to speak the truth. And if you notice, they are leaving no stone unturned to cage me from commenting, but that cannot be possible. They cannot win this war.

“I can’t keep quiet, they can’t shut my mouth. I am being persecuted but unfortunately I am becoming more popular. To this government, anybody in APC is considered a saint, but PDP people are rogues. That’s why you see some of our people crossing to their side and immediately, they become saints.”
The governor claimed he's the last man standing, adding that people like Femi Fani-Kayode had been kept quiet and that the next step for the APC government was to kill the PDP in Nigeria.

I just hope Fani-Kayode will not reply and blast Fayose, nobody can keep him quiet too. #politics

Lagos Monarch Kidnappers Contacts Family to Provide N500m

 

A week after the Oniba of Ibaland, Oba Yushau Oseni, has been kidnapped, his abductors have contacted his family and demanded the ransom of N500m for his release.

One of the monarch’s sons, Saheed Oseni, who confirmed that the kidnappers had made contact, told Punch that they said they could no longer make money from pipeline vandalism.

Saheed called on the state government to rise to the family’s help and rescue their father.

He said, “Even if you sell the whole community, we can’t raise N500m. The men finally called on Thursday and said they wanted N500m. They said Baba is a part of the government and he should be able to raise that money. They said they had no pipeline to eat from and so they must survive.

“They said the Yorubas and Hausas stopped their means of livelihood and they needed to find another means of survival. All our pleadings fell on deaf ears. We have conveyed the update to the state government and we believe something will be done. We are seriously concerned about Baba’s health.

“We know the government is on top of the situation and we are hopeful.”

Oba Oseni was abducted from his palace on Saturday, July 16, 2016 around 8.30pm.

The gunmen numbering about 16 stormed the palace in two speedboats and killed the palace guard.

An unidentified motorcyclist was also killed while the kidnappers shot at the monarch’s wife Kuburat who is still recuperating in a government hospital.

A woman and her three-month-old baby and a yet-to-be-identified businessman were also reportedly abducted by the gunmen.

Nothing was heard from the abductors of the 73-year-old monarch for six days after his abduction, until Friday, fuelling speculations about what could have happened to the monarch.

Now the monarch’s abductors have threatened the family to raise the money as fast as they could, as he was an influential member of the state government.

The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, SP Dolapo Badmos, said the police were still on the trail of the kidnappers and are hopeful of rescuing the monarch soon.

Father Sues His Three Daughters For Not Visiting Him Enough

 

69-year-old father of three, Mr Yang Zhengyuan from China's Sichuan province has filed a lawsuit against his three daughters for not returning home to visit him 'frequently'. He claimed his daughters hadn't come home enough or given him enough financial support over the past ten years.

Funny enough, his daughters - Yang Liu, Yang Qing and Yang Lan - has hit back with a counterclaim accusing him of favoring boys over girls.

Yang Liu claims that her father beat her in her own office after she failed to give him the money he was demanding from her.

While Yang Qing said she was beaten by her dad when she was pregnant: 'When I was a few months pregnant, he pulled my hair and beat me.'

They have provided copies of balance transfers sent to their father.

The family has been able to work out an agreement under which they will visit him twice a year and call once every month. The mother of the girls, Mrs Xiao Liu, confirmed the girls' allegations saying her husband favored boys over girls and used to beat her.

The daughters also argue that their father has shown a lack of interest in their personal affairs such as education, marriages and careers.

Yang Qing told reporters: 'Even if he wins the case, we would lose our affection.'

On his part, the dad admitted that he could have contributed more to his family but denies claims that he 'abandoned' his daughters.

 

Earlier in 2016 China introduced a law that allows parents sue children for not seeing them enough.

Children who still refuse to visit their parents will be given a bad credit which may make it difficult for them to open bank accounts, take out loans and even have a library card. The new law has an emphasis on 'coming home' rules.

During visits to their parents, the children have to provide financial and spiritual support to them.

My Father Was Brutalized, His Lower Limbs Amputated - Tompolo Writes Buhari in Pains

Former Niger Delta warlord, Government Ekpemupolo, popularly known as Tompolo on Friday wrote a heartfelt letter to All Progressives Congress (APC) leader and President Muhammadu Buhari on the excesses of the military in the Niger Delta region.

The former Movement of the Emancipation of the Niger Delta, MEND said that his family and associates were under siege by security agents, who allegedly treated roughly his 84-year-old father, in Kurutie community, Gbaramatu Kingdom, Warri South-West Local Government, resulting in the amputation of his lower limbs, two weeks ago, according to the Vanguard.

In an open letter to President Muhammadu Buhari, which he indicated might be his last, said the continuous harassment and intimidation was getting out of hand, and he does not deserve it.

He said after the military invaded Kurutie and brutalized his father, sympathizers managed to rescue him to Warri, where the hospital admitted him. “Sadly, one of his lower limbs was amputated two weeks ago. From the doctor’s report, it will be a thing of miracle if he survives this incident. Is this 84- year- old man also a member of the Niger Delta Avengers that they brutalized to the point of death? He asked.

He said that the harassment and intimidation was by the Nigeria Army, Navy and Department of State Services, DSS, in connivance with two chieftains of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in Delta State, Chief Ayiri Emami and Chief Michael Johnny. The ex-militant leader asked President Buhari: “Will Your Excellency accept this in good faith if this was done to your father or someone of this age in your family?”

He also said the latest of the victims of this unwarranted, misdirected and wicked act were Hon. Simeon Bebenimibo, a member of the Delta State Waterway and Land Security Committee, and a driver of one of my aides, Mr Ebipade Kari, who was on an errand with a little baby, ThisDay reports.

Ekpemupolo said also that the military men stormed the house of one of his younger brothers, and harassed his pregnant wife with guns pointed at her which led to complications because of the closeness to her full time of delivery.

The arrested duo, he said, were presently in the custody of the Nigerian Army, Effurun, adding that before the incident, the Nigerian Navy also went to the apartment of another of his aides, picked up his heavily pregnant wife since he was out of town, and kept her for 24 hours in the Navy base before releasing her.
