Drake sent the phone photos to the fan on instagram and she was supposed to send hers to him too but instead she exposed the photographs. Drake is not happy about it, but 10.8million women all over the world are! Bless him! Talent, good looks and ripped abs. Why doesn't Rihanna like this dude, again?

Founder of Boko Haram is a member of the opposition - FFK

While speaking on Channels TV's breakfast show, Sunrise Daily, this morning June 30th, former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, who recently dumped the APC for PDP, said the founder of terrorist group, Boko Haram, is an indigene of Borno state and is also a key official of the opposition. He also said Boko Haram is the armed wing of the opposition. Some of what he said below...

"It is very clear that the founder of Boko Haram, the person that actually founded Boko Haram when he was in office...and I won't mention his name on Television but everybody knows who it is, is from Borno state. He is alive and well. He is a key member of the opposition. Again I look at the utterances of the official spokesman of the opposition last year, that is Lai Mohammed, where he protested at the fact that Boko Haram was proscribed by the federal government where he said it was unconstitutional for the federal government to do so. He needs to explain why it is he would want to protect and support an organization that has killed almost 15,000 Nigerians as at that time and is against the fact that they were being proscribed to protect Nigerians.

"If you compare what’s happening in Nigeria to what happened in Ireland some years ago, you had Sinn Fein on the one hand and then you had the IRA on the other. The IRA was the armed wing of Sinn Fein and as far as I’m concerned, Boko Haram could well be described as the armed wing of the opposition, today.”

Pistorius was not mentally ill when he shot girlfriend' - experts says

Many weeks after his trial was put on hold so he can get psychiatric evaluation to determine if he was
mentally ill when he shot and killed his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp, in his home in February 2013, a report has been released. A panel of mental health experts has concluded that Oscar Pistorius was not suffering from mental illness when he killed Reeva, the chief prosecutor at his murder trial said today.

The mental experts, a psychologist and 3 psychiatrists all agreed that Oscar understood the gravity of his act when he shot Reeva through a closed toilet door. The request for evaluation came after his defence team brought a psychiatrist who testified that Oscar had an anxiety disorder, because of his disability, that could have contributed to the shooting. His trial resumed today after a 1-month break.

T.I and Tiny kiss and make-up? Sit together at 2014 BET Awards

Divorce rumours have been following rapper T.I and his wife Tiny for many months now after they subtly attacked each other on their social media accounts. There was even a report that their problems started after Tiny found out T.I had a baby with another woman, a claim T.I has since denied. Then there's the famous show down with Floyd Mayweather in Vegas. Anyway, the couple put the divorce rumours to rest after they were photographed sitting together at the BET Awards that held on Sunday night. They were also spotted together at T.I.'s BET pre-show mansion party...

Update on yesterday's attack near Chibok: 48 killed, 5 churches razed

48 people have been confirmed dead while 5 churches including Cocin, EYN and Deeper Life Bible church were destroyed after Boko Haram men yesterday June 29th launched a four hour attack on Kwada, Karagau and Kautikari villages in Chibok, Borno state. The attack came two weeks after the sect men had written a letter to the Chibok community saying they should expect another attack from them. True to their word, they carried out their threat yesterday.

 

According to residents of the villages, the gunmen arrived in pickup vans and motorcycles and immediately went into worship centers where they shot indiscriminately at people conducting their Sunday worship service. They also pursued and killed those who tried running into the bushes. Continue..

 

Amos Bulus, a resident of one of the villages who spoke to Vanguard said;

"The attackers killed and burnt houses after attacking worshipers in five churches in Kwada, before moving to Kautikari less than 8 kilometres to Chibok town, killing and burning down people’s houses and property. The security operatives were not on ground to defend us. In fact, those who ran into the bush were pursued and killed by the murderers.” he said

Another resident, Peter Maina said he was called out from a Church service in Maiduguri, only to be informed that his brother was killed at Kwada when the insurgents attacked the village during church service.

 

Confirming the attack, Senator Mohammed Ali Ndume, representing Borno South Senatorial District said more efforts should be put in place by the Federal Government in fighting the insurgents

"The military and other security agencies should do more by not only deploying more personnel, but cooperating fully with members of the Local Vigilante Group in fighting terrorism and insurgency in this part of the state. They know the terrains of Sambisa Forest and can track insurgents in their hideouts. The two should work as a team to end this Boko Haram insurgency that will clock five years by July 29, 2014”, Ndume said.

...and Nigeria did not advance to the quarter-final stage

France just beat Nigeria 2-0 to advance to the quarter-final stage of the 2014 World Cup! France played well, and many feel they deserved the win...but our Super Eagles did well too! Especially, goal keeper Vincent Enyeama. He's been our saviour in this tournament. Thank you!

What did you think of the match? I also think Enyeama deserves African Footballer of the Year 2014. What do you think?

Unceasing bloodshed: Should Nigeria remain united or part peacefully? - BY CLIFFORD NDUJIHE

SINCE 1953, exactly seven years before independence, which was consummated on October 1, 1960, Nigeria has been a haven for flurry of political and ethno-religious mayhem, which have claimed about 3.5million lives.

After the Kano riots of 1953 that claimed many lives, violence has become a recurring decimal in the country. If two or three of the estimated 400 ethnic groups are not on one another’s throats, members of the two dominant religions – Christians and Moslems would be slaying each other.

The first and perhaps the biggest threat to Nigeria’s unity came less than six years after independence following political crisis in the the then Western region. The crisis led to the first military coup, which later degenerated to a full-blown 30-month war between Nigeria and the Eastern region, which seceded and declared itself Republic of Biafra. The East lost the war after an estimated three million lives were lost on both sides and Nigeria as a united country was preserved.

Thereafter, the country did not cease to be a killing field. Self-determination pursuits did not also cease. We experienced the Maitatsine uprising of the early 80s. Between 2000 and 2001, the adoption of sharia law by 12 northern states led to a wave of violence during which about 2000 Nigerians were killed, a host of others were displaced and property worth billions of Naira were destroyed.

The once peaceful Jos, the capital of Plateau State became a beehive of mayhem. Scores of northern states are not immune to the recurring violence, which often target southerners, especially the Christian Igbo, who are prolific travelers and migrants.

In the late 90s, violence resurged in the Niger-Delta, a region that accounts for over 85 per cent of Nigeria’s foreign revenue through its huge petroleum and natural gas deposit. Militants protesting neglect and devastation of their area through oil exploitation held the country at the jugular as they insisted on self-determination or 100 per cent control of their resources.

It took the amnesty programme initiated by the Federal Government in 2009 for the militants for peace to return to the Niger-Delta. The amnesty programme is expected to end in 2015. There is fear that militancy may return if the political and socio-economic needs of the region are not met.

Already, there are subtle threats from Niger-Delta youths that if President Goodluck Jonathan is forcefully prevented from seeking a second term in office, they would end oil exploitation in the region. There has been a groundswell of opposition to Jonathan’s perceived second term ambition especially from a section of the North with ample support from some southern politicians.

Currently, the country is passing through another deleterious phase second only to the civil war. The Boko Haram insurgency that started in 2002 and blossomed in 2010 has rendered the Northeastern part of the country unsafe and socio-economically unstable. The sect’s murderous bomb attacks have been witnessed in many northern cities including the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja, Kaduna, Kano, Suleja, etc, during which an estimated 10,000 lives have been snatched.

Last wednesday a car bomb exploded near a petroleum tank farm in Apapa, Lagos killing four persons and injuring scores of others. The explosion is suspected to be the handiwork of Boko Haram, which  is against western education and wants full-blown sharia law introduced.

These demands are not acceptable to Christians and most of the ethnic groups drawn from all parts of the country especially in the South and this leads us to these questions: How can we end this bloodshed? Instead of remaining together in what is panning out as a deadly marriage conducted by the British in 1914 without the consent of the various tribes and ethnic groups, is it not better to go our separate ways in peace?
