Nigeria’s former President, Olusegun Obasanjo, on Wednesday lampooned the National Assembly, saying it is largely an assemblage of looters and thieves. Mr. Obasanjo, who was speaking at the public presentation of the autobiography of Justice Mustapha Akanbi, in Abuja, regretted that every aspect of Nigeria’s national life is riddled with corruption. However, he said there were a few exceptions and people who stand out and would not succumb to the scourge of sleaze, even in the federal legislature. In a speech he delivered at the public presentation of “The Story Of My Two Worlds; Challenges, Experiences And Achievements” written by Justice Akanbi, the pioneer chairman of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Related Offences Commission, the former president said the National Assembly, which he said is shrouding its corruption in the opaque nature of its budget, has damaged its capacity to oversight the executive. He accused the President Goodluck Jonathan-led executive o...

FIFA released its world ranking for the month of November early today and Nigeria’s Super Eagles have neither risen nor moved down the ranking, but remain number 42, which they were last month. In the month under review, the Eagles failed to make it to the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations taking place in Equatorial Guinea in January after Stephen Keshi’s led Eagles went to Congo to beat the Red Devils 2-0 and drew 2-2 against South Africa in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State. Bafana Bafana of South Africa and Congo, however, moved up six and three positions as they are now on 51 and 59 in the world respectively. Algeria retain their number one position in Africa, but went down three places to 18 in the world. Tunisia second (22), Ivory Coast third (24), Senegal fourth (35), Ghana fifth (38), Guinea sixth (38), Cape Verde Islands seventh (39) and Cameroon eighth (41) behind Nigeria ninth in Africa. The November edition of the FIFA/Coca-Cola World Ranking reveals very little change in the to...

Bomb blast in northeast Nigeria bus station killed 40 people including five army personnels YOLA, Nigeria (Reuters) - A roadside bomb tore through a bus station near a busy junction in northeast Nigeria on Thursday, killing 40 people including five soldiers, witnesses and a security source on the scene said. The security source and witness Abubakar Adamu, a mechanic who narrowly avoided being blown up himself, said the blast set several buses on fire at the Marabi-Mubi junction, in a part of the country plagued by violence linked to the Boko Haram Islamist insurgency. "There were bodies everywhere on the ground," Adamu said. The location is about 30 km (20 miles) west of Mubi, a town near the Cameroon border seized last month by Boko Haram militants fighting to carve an Islamic state out of religiously-mixed Nigeria. It has since been recaptured. Nigerian authorities, who rarely remark on security developments in the troubled northeast, did not immediately respo...

His name in Igbo language means “Lord bless me”. But today Chigozie is certainly not feeling blessed as he is one of the numerous Nigerians currently serving various jail terms in Ghanaian prisons. He was arrested at the airport in Ghana while trying to smuggle Marijuana to Hong Kong and was subsequently sentenced to 15 years imprisonment. Chigozie’s health is said to have deteriorated, allegedly due to the poor condition of the prison. They (inmates) are allegedly denied food and medical attention when sick. Chigozie and other Nigerians who are languishing in Ghanaian prisons have, therefore, appealed to the Federal Government to repatriate them back to Nigeria to complete their jail terms. He narrated his ordeal to Vanguard Metro, VM on telephone. “I want to first of all, say that I am truly sorry for engaging in drug trafficking and bringing dishonour to my country, Nigeria. Before I was arrested, I was supplying computer accessories to traders in Ghana. I l...

A Church minister of God has been discovered cheating on his wife with a policeman’s wife in Kenya.

The leadership of the Nigeria Football Federation have admitted that their hands are tied where Stephen Keshi’s tenure as coach of the Eagles is concerned. Nigerians are calling for the resignation of Keshi following his failure to qualify Nigeria for next year’s AFCON defence of the title he won in 2013 But the Edo born coach still wants to remain as coach. He is yet to be offered a new deal and the NFF have been silent on his future, a situation which a board member of the NFF said was out of their control. “The last time we did what we thought was best, we were forced to revert the changes by people in high places. This time around we are helpless,” the source lamented. “We are scared of announcing we won’t renew his deal due to what happened last time and unless he resigns or walks away we can’t help out,” he further added. Keshi himself has insisted he is still the best man for the job.

The picture apparently shows a huge (dead) snake,probably an African Python being displayed by a group of men believed to have killed it.

  Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has again torn at President Goodluck Jonathan, saying Nigerian democracy remained at risk due to the action of the present administration.  Speaking at a book Launch in honour of the pioneer chairman of the Independent Corrupt Practices Commission, ICPC, Mustapha Akanbi‎, in Abuja, Mr. Obasanjo, who is the Chairman of the occasion, said the president should stop encouraging ‘verbal violence which may not physically hurt but has ways of degenerating into physical violence’.  Mr. Obasanjo said the greatest indictment against any administration is to be seen trying to destroy opposition of all sort‎s which invariably mean destroying democracy. “Management of democracy without resorting to brute force and dictatorial tendencies must be cultivated,” the former President said. “As a leader, you must not deliberately do evil or condone evil.  You should know that you will one day give account to God, you may cover up here,...

  I get the best feeling in the world when you say hi or even smile at me b'coz I know, even if its just for a second, that I've crossed your mind.  Cloud dances because of wind; flower sings b'coz of rain; grass grows b'coz of earth; I live because of you; you are only the reason, you are all the reasons.  If you wake up one day and were asked to have a wish, what would it be? Mine would be that our love would last until you see an apple in an orange tree.  I want to hold your hand, laugh at your jokes, walk by your side, snuggle on the couch, look into your eyes, talk about whatever and kiss your lips every single day.  Making me happy doesn't require a lot of efforts. Actually your presence is just enough. I can never let me heart break if it beats for you. I can never let my smile fade if it smiles for you. I can never let my love end if its for YOU.  Last night I hugged my pillow and dreamt of you. I wish that someday I'd dream about my pillow ...

  Imagine a scenario- the guy of your dreams walks into the room full of people, consisting of you too. You have already fallen for him, but he is not much aware of your existence and probably never will be unless you act accordingly. He is scanning the room and soon his eyes will casually make contact with yours. One chance is all that you have to capture his attention. And, luckily one look is all you need to make him fall head over heels in love with you… provided you know how to "look"? Science, discipline, spontaneity and luck- you will need them all in order to succeed in your endeavour and the most important element in all this will be your timing. Besides your eyes, the other two factors waiting with a key to his heart are your laughter and your overall look. So, here are the four steps to get him going crazy for you! Step #1. Capture his eyes Capture his eyes and make them prisoner behind the beating walls of your heart the moment they meet with your...

These rules are, in effect, the 9 unspoken rules of a relationship  Always say good morning and good night. This is not very difficult. If you constantly fail to do either of these, then there really is a problem between the two of you. You can greet your partner in a text, an email, or if you really want bonus points, call them. Your busy schedule should not hinder you from showing your loved one that you are thinking about them.  Update them about your whereabouts at least once a day. You don't need to glue yourself to your phone or update your Twitter feed every hour. Take a few minutes out of your lunch break to text your partner about how your day is going. If your schedule does not permit any interruptions, call your partner before you sleep and update them then.  An anniversary should always be acknowledged. Whether it's a one-month anniversary or the one-year milestone, you need to be prepared. Forgetting an anniversary is just as bad as forgetting...

Money has a nasty habit of inexplicably disappearing. Where the process of earning and obtaining it can be incredibly difficult, its evaporation from your wallet can be almost effortless. In an ideal world, you would have such a strong distaste for spending money that you only did so in situations that spending was absolutely necessary. But for those of us who aren't “stingy” or just naturally bent towards being tight with our money, it can be almost impossible to keep ourselves from the lure of spending it on a variety of things.  (See also: How to Do a One Month Spending Freeze) But what if there were ways to train ourselves to just hate spending money? We would stop buying things we didn't need and avoid nickel and diming ourselves all the time. We would have less clutter in our houses and more money in our bank accounts. It might even lower our stress levels a bit. While we might always be “spenders” at heart, there are some things we can do to keep fresh in our mi...

  28 Christians were killed yesterday morning Nov. 22nd after Islamic Shebab extremists ambushed a bus in Kenya as it headed for Nairobi from Mandera, a town close to Somalia. According to reports, the heavily armed extremists separated the Muslims from the Christians by asking them to recite verses from the Qu’ran. Then they ordered the Muslims to get off the bus and then shot the Christians point blank in the head before escaping back to Somalia. A Spokesman for Shebab later said the 28 travelers were killed in retaliation for a raid on mosques in Mombasa, Kenya last week.

It's so common for women to make such comments whenever a guy decides to end an affair with them: "You think you can use and dump me", "he used and dumped me"? What do they really mean by" use and dump "? Is it that the guy had sex with her and left her? If yes, didn't she enjoy the sex too? Is it only the man that enjoys sex? If it's because of it, I don't think it's right to claim that a guy used and dumped a girl. More so, the girl must have enjoyed lots of money, outings, clothes, jewellery, including sex while the relationship lasted, so why cry foul when the guy decides to end the affair by claiming that the guy dumped her after using her. I haven't heard where a guy claimed that he was used and dumped. Only women say that. Babes what do u mean by being used and dumped? Guys has a girl ever told you that you used and dumped her? It's annoying when some ladies use such words. A man looki...

Sometimes I just pity some girls I see bcoz of the kind of guy they date. If your guy ain't one of these 3, you need prayers from us: 1. The Deep Searcher: This kind of guy wants to really know you for you. He wants to know you as a person, beyond ur face, beyond the sex you guys have. And even better he accepts what he sees & is willing to help u improve if you re willing. 2. The Blunt Guy: He says it as it is. It may hurt u or not, but things never get out of hand. If he likes u he tells u. If u re getting fat he tells u. If he doesn't like ur friend he tells u. He ALWAYS keeps it real with u. No hidden agenda, either black or white. Fling or long term love, he ll tell u what he wants. Honest, sometimes in an insensitive way. 3. The Talk-and-Happen Guy: He doesn't say what he wont do. What his mouth utters u know it s already. If he says he ll beat ur boss for harrassing u, nothing u or ur boss says will stop it. His promises always happen, good or bad. ...

  President Goodluck Jonathan has proposed to cut fuel subsidies in half in a bid to reduce spending after a retreat in global crude prices. According to David Mark, the Senate President, the government plans to reduce fuel subsidies next year to N458.6 billion ($2.6 billion) from N971.1 billion , citing a revised 2015 Medium Term Expenditure Framework and Fiscal Strategy Paper submitted by President Jonathan. The global collapse in oil prices is biting into Nigeria’s income, 70 percent of which comes from crude exports. Finance Minister Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala plans to cut expenditure by 6 percent next year and lower the budgeted benchmark oil price to $73 per barrel, from $77.5 this year. Kerosene subsidies will also be cut to N156 billion, from N250 billion, according to the proposal.

FIRSTLY is: Medicine: The fact that it involves human life makes it even more challenging; it takes longer number of years than any other course in Nigeria before they are tagged qualified as it deals with human life, the students are compelled to read heavy-weighted textbooks and they engage in reading almost all the time . Passing MBBS is another ball game and includes courses like Anatomy, Biochemistry , physiology, this poses a lot of worry to medical students ; most of them even go for thanksgiving when they eventually pass . Medicine as a course requires a lot of commitment from the student considering the length of the courses and examinations involved . via: telegraph.co .uk   SECONDLY Chemistry: This may sound easy and more fun when viewed from practical sense but in a more academic sense it involves a lot of math and physics making it more challenging to study. It involves nomenclature, reactions , stoichiometry , molarity and thermochemistry and host of o...

Emmanuel Adebayor has claimed that his mother and relatives, are using ‘juju’ (witchcraft) to end his football career prematuredly. The Togo and Tottenham Hotspurs striker, has stayed away from his family including his mother, who he went with to receive the Africa Footballer of the Year award in Lagos, Nigeria. “As at now, our mother is selling polythene bags, padlocks and other things on the (Ghana/Togo) border. Our mother has not seen him for more than a year and he rejects her calls anytime. Our mother is not calling him for his money, she just wants to see him because she loves him very much,” Adebayor’s sister, Maggie told Peace FM. However, Adebayor, speaking to the same radio station, insisted that he cut off from his family, because they are plotting evil against him. “How can I talk to a mother who together with my sisters have been plotting juju against me?” he fired back. It is a sharp contrast to the comments he provided to Daily Mail in 2009, where he said...

Luis van Gaal is expecting either Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo to win the Ballon d’Or but feels one of Germany’s World Cup-winning squad would merit the award more. 111914 Soccer Man U van Gaal JW PI.vadapt.955.medium.0 Van Gaal Says Messi And Ronaldo Do Not Deserve To Win Ballon DOr    The Barcelona and Real Madrid stars are favourites to be crowned on January 12, 2015, but the Manchester United manager feels the pair do not deserve the honour. Messi, a four-time winner, was handed the Golden Ball at the World Cup after helping Argentina to the final while Ronaldo, a two-time winner, lifted the Champions League with Real Madrid. But Van Gaal feels a member of the triumphant Germany squad would be more worthy victors, with Toni Kross, Philipp Lahm, Thomas Muller, Manuel Neuer, Bastian Schweinsteiger and Mario Gotze all nominated. “Most of the time it is always the well known players [who win the Ballon d’Or],” he told MUTV. “It is more for the football world an...

am sure you are convinced that what a man can do, a woman can do better but not everything that a man do that a woman can do. But it won't happen without you making up your mind to become the best you can. SUCCESS COMES WITH A PRICE TAG AND THOSE WHO ARE NOT READY TO PAY THE PRICE CAN'T ENJOY THE RISE. Success is not automatic and failure is not also but your input will determine your output. All the people you have seen at the top of the ladder of success perspire to acquire their desire which they admire, and never retire but re-fire until they become the best. The moment you stop to aspire, you begin to expire. Let us see some of these proven principles of success: 1. HAVE A CLEAR VISION: You must have a clear picture of what you want to become in the future because the future really begins now. If you don't know where you are going early life, you will grow up to discover that you have traveled far from your original purpose. WHAT DO YOU WANT TO BECOME IN THE FUTURE? M...

It’s said that the first year of marriage is the hardest one. The adjustments and changes that spouses encounter as newlyweds topple almost every other period in life — you and your spouse may feel stuck between the couple you used to be and the married couple you want to become. Marriage is a big risk; it can guarantee a lifetime of love, fulfillment, security and satisfaction, but it can also lead to quarrels, abuse, loneliness and divorce. Here are the top eight challenges that spouses may need to overcome in their first year:    1. Domesticity Problems The first thing that springs to mind is anything associated with domesticity. This means anything that can be lumped into what we like to call “household chores,”like washing the dishes, doing the laundry, tidying up or cooking dinner. For many recently married people, sharing a house with someone else is entirely new. Trying to divide the tasks in a fair and even way can put an enormous strain on a relationship....
