Iyabo’s public flogging of her father okay but…


By Rotimi Fasan
AFTER the initial attempt at putting up a disclaimer by an impostor Nigerians including her befuddled father must now be reconciled to the fact that Iyabo was the author of the letter that exploded the burble created by OBJ’s own letter to Goodluck Jonathan. It was beginning to look like a comedy of the absurd of the Baba Sala variety when the impostor purported to be Iyabo sent out her disclaimer denouncing the letter which was the equivalent of a public flogging of her father as a fabrication and threatening legal action.
The grammatical infelicities were obvious but that did not remove from the possibility that a big fraud might have been imposed on Nigerians. This in spite of the fact that Iyabo’s letter sounded true enough; a fact that could only at the time have been very clear and believable to people familiar with her writing style and the details recounted in the letter.
The general formal tone and outlook of the letter with her professional titles and all heightened the fear that an impostor, probably in the pay of her father’s enemies, might be on the loose. Nobody writes to their father in such terms. Iyabo’s letter was obviously meant to be read by the public.

Nigeria does not belong to any politician or group of politicians - Pres Jonathan


During a Christmas Day service held at the Cathedral Church of the Advent, Life Camp, Gwarinpa, Abuja on Christmas Day, President Jonathan said Nigeria does not belong to any politician or group politicians.
“We politicians that think we own this country and are already thinking about next election; we are doing what we ought not to do; making statement we ought not to make and writing letters we are supposed not to write.
“This  country belongs to our statesmen, traditional rulers, religious leaders, our men, our women, our youths. Nigeria does not belong to any politician or group of politicians. So,  we will  continue to urge the clergymen  to pray for this country.” Jonathan said

PDP, APC at war over OBJ, Jonathan feud

Obasanjo-Jonathan3

*Jonathan desecreting office of president —APC
 *Christmas is not season for politics — PDP
By Emmanuel Aziken, Political Editor
LAGOS—The All  Progressives Congress, APC and the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP were, yesterday, engaged in a war of words over the propriety of President Goodluck Jonathan exchanging words with former President Olusegun Obasanjo on the state of the nation.
While the APC flayed President Jonathan for supposedly diminishing the Presidency through what it claimed as his unrestrained attack on his one-time benefactor, called on the president to make peace with him. The PDP accused the opposition party of being insensitive to the holiday mood of Nigerians.
The PDP said it would not join the fray as it was devoted to making good sense of the purpose and essence of Christmas in giving to the poor and the less privileged people in society.
Special Adviser to the President on Political Matters, Alhaji Ahmed Gulak equally did not respond to the issue despite an SMS question sent to him.

Lebanese boss beats up pregnant factory worker in Lagos, woman loses 7-month pregnancy


OMG! How very ! According to a shocking report by National Daily Newspaper, a 7-month pregnant factory worker was beaten so badly by her Lebanese boss that she lost her baby.
Workers in a Lagos based packaging and printing company, Toppan Packaging Company Limited located on Ladipo Oluwole in Ikeja Industrial Estate could not believe what they witnessed on Friday the 13th December 2013.
When the shift manager, a Lebanese; Kaveh Noine beat up the Cleaning Unit Supervisor Mrs. Alice Ossai in their presence, due to what he deemed negligence on her part, his grouse, a portion of the factory is littered with dirt and she failed in her responsibility to rein in her team to keep the factory floor spick and span.
Frantic efforts by Ossai to explain why the portion of the factory was littered with dirt, even after she was assaulted was rebuffed by Noine who shouted her down and asked her to come with him to his office fuming with rage; exasperated staff members on duty went in with Ossai in a bid to collectively explain the supposed duty breach. Noine rained blows on Ossai and kicking her repeatedly, without sparing her tummy even though she was seven months pregnant.

Gay Man Burned Alive In Uganda: Anti-Gay Bill Passed Into Law


Uganda has just signed a bill that further criminalizes homosexuality, CNN reports. A man was even burned to death for being gay.

Passed on Friday, the Anti-Homosexuality Bill calls for life imprisonment for gay s*x involving HIV-positive individuals, acts with minors and the disabled, and for repeated “offenses” between consenting adults.

The bill’s original 2009 version, named “Kill The Gays,” went as far as calling for the death penalty for certain homosexual acts; that provision was shelved following international furor. 

Under its latest iteration, anyone who conducts marriage ceremonies for same-s*x couples faces seven years behind bars. Failure to report homosexual activity to police is also criminalized. Doctors who treat gays, landlords who rent them property and those suspected of being LBGTQ are subject to five-year prison terms under the bill.

Anyone who offers support to homosexuals will also be committing a criminal offense, which can reportedly extend to counseling.

My Teenage Pregnancy Experience - Genevieve Nnaji Reveals


 In an interview she granted to Treasure Magazine, Genevieve Nnaji shared the story of her life. The Mbaise, Imo State-born actress revealed she didn’t grow up in the East.

 She is what you call the typical Lagos girl. Speaking on her childhood, she said: “I grew up in Lagos basically; my family is here in Lagos. I went to Methodist Girls High School, Yaba, Lagos. My mum is a teacher and my dad is a retired banker. Okay, I’m from a family of 10, eight kids, mummy and daddy. I left school in 97, went to UNILAG to do Creative Arts (part time); it was difficult keeping up because of doing movies, so I decided to drop and continue with the movie until I’m ready.”

That is not all, she grew up with strong Catholic background, a church she claimed impacted conscience into her, and it was that conscience the made her take a stand against abortion when she became pregnant as a teenager. Speaking on her child and pregnancy, she said: “Yes, I have a child. I was pretty young though. What happened? What I learnt was that no matter how much I try to control myself and be preserved and everything, sh*t still happens to me. So, I think what is meant to be will be.

A couple were arrested on their wedding day as they tie the knot after stripping naked in the street to campaign against San Francisco's ban on public nudity. The bride Gypsy Taub, 44, and groom Jamyz Smith, 20 were arrested within a few minutes after they exchanged vows. According to Taub:  'This is a protest against the nudity ban as much as it is a wedding. I know that the people of San Francisco are behind me.' The service was reportedly conducted by nudity activist George Davis, an ordained minister of the Universal Life Church. See more photos below:

Sack Governor Okorocha For Defecting To APC - APGA tells Court

Photo: APGA asks court to sack Rochas Okorocha


The All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) on Monday asked an Abuja Federal High Court to declare the seat of Imo State Governor, Rochas Okorocha, vacant for defecting to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

APGA wants the court to make an order directing the Deputy Governor of Imo State or Speaker of the Imo State House of Assembly, or any officer next in line to the position of the Governor, who is a member of the party, to be inaugurated as the governor of the state.
Moreover, the party asked the court to order the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to nullify the Certificate of Return issued to Okorocha and issue a certificate of return to his replacement.
Okorocha, INEC and the Imo State House of Assembly are listed as the 1st to 3rd defendants in the suit, respectively.

PHOTOS: Fat 200kg Virgin Sends Lover To Hospital Emergency The First Time They Had Sex


Love hurts: Gregg Casarona and Jen Gerakaris weighed 440lbs and 110lbs respectively when they had sex for the first time and Jen's head slammed through the wall, resulting in a concussion

The first time Gregg Casarona ever had sex, the walls didn’t just shake — they shattered. The 200kg project manager was 21 at the time and had been dating his girlfriend Jen Gerakaris for about a month when they decided to take things to the next level. According to new TLC series “Sex Sent Me to the ER,” premiering Dec. 28, Jen was 22 and living in her parents’ Long Island basement at the time. She made her move by stripping down to her bra and panties and waiting on her bed until Gregg got the hint. She said:
“I knew Gregg was a virgin and I honestly didn’t care. We were dating for a little while and he hadn’t put any moves on me yet so I made a move.”
When things began to heat up, very fat 200kg Gregg thrust 55kg Jen backwards with all 440 pounds of his girth. And Jen’s head went right through the basement’s sheet-rock wall.
“My initial reaction was, ‘I killed her,’ ”  Gregg tells The Post. “‘This is my first time. And Jen is dead.’”
After a couple of terrifying seconds, Jen slowly pulled her head out of the wall and looked at Gregg incredulously.
“Why’d you stop?” she asked. “He looked like he was about to have a heart attack,” she says. “So I just wanted to lighten the mood.”
But Gregg was shaken and insisted on taking his lover, who started to become dizzy and nauseous, to the hospital. She was diagnosed with a concussion. Although Gerakaris and Casarona were shy about telling the doctors and nurses about what caused her injury, the pair will be sharing their tale on TLC. After bringing down the house, the couple says they were a little bit more careful about their positioning during sex.

They gave us N100k each, sold our babies without our consent” - Baby Factory Victims Tell their Stories


A Busted Baby Factory

Indigenes of Arondizuogu in Ideato North Local Government Area of Imo State are still hiding their faces in shame, two weeks after one of their brothers, James Ezuma, was apprehended by the police for gunrunning, child trafficking and rituals. Ezuma, 57, had claimed to be a medical doctor.
A recent investigation into child trafficking had led the police to Ezuma’s residence, which doubled as an office for ‘Ezuma Women and Children Right Initiative’, a purportedly registered nongovernmental organisation. During a search conducted in the premises by the police,16 pregnant girls between the ages of 14 and 19 were found.
The ‘NGO,’ which was in a fenced compound surrounded by bushes and uncompleted buildings, turned out to be a suspected baby factory. The teenage girls said they were encouraged to get pregnant and take home the sum of N100, 000 at delivery, on the condition that they would abandon their babies who are eventually used for purposes ranging from child trafficking to rituals.
The girls tell their stories
One of the girls, Chinaza Nnachi, 19, said she had come to the ‘NGO’ because of her baby.

Speaking in impeccable English, Nnachi said, “I got pregnant and the guy responsible denied it. Someone directed me to come here that they would take care of me and the baby.
“When I got here, the doctor (Dr. Ezuma) said the baby would be taken care of. I eventually gave birth to a bouncing baby girl at Ezuma Private Hospital.
“The baby was taken away from me and I got to know through one of the staff here that it was sold. Ezuma later came and gave me N100, 000 and without any explanation.”
She noted, “I didn’t agree that the baby should be sold out. I am crying because the baby was sold out without my consent.  When I got pregnant, I came here to stay so that when I eventually deliver, the baby could be showered with care.
“It all started because I was pregnant and stranded, so one aunty directed me to this place. She said she would take care of us till we deliver.
“She said if I delivered the baby, I would balance her. But she did not tell me how much and now I am seeing the opposite and the disappearance of my baby is already making me die slowly.”
She added, “I was not comfortable with the whole drama and that was why I used one of the staff to reach out to the police.”
The story is not so different with Blessing Ubbah. She said, “I was two months pregnant when I came here. I met one aunty who said I would carry the baby and balance her some money when I eventually deliver.”
She said, “We were about eight persons and kept in one room at the Ezuma hospital or NGO.
“If the police hadn’t waded in before I delivered, I guess my case would have gone the way of Chinaza (Nnachi).”

Housewife Cheats On Husband and gets Pregnant, Tries To Dump Day Old Baby

Housewife Cheats On Husband, Tries To Kill Day Old Baby


Fatimoh and Quadri Adekoya

A housewife who cheated on her husband and got pregnant has been arrested by the police at Ajegunle Divisional Headquarters, Mile 12, Lagos, western Nigeria, after she delivered a baby and attempted to throw it into a soak-away pit.
The housewife, Fatimoh Adekoya, 29, was caught by her husband on Saturday, 21 December, after placing the baby together with the placenta beside a soak-away in front of their house at 27, Ifelodun Street, Weighbridge, Owode-Onirin, Mile 12, Lagos.
Fatimoh, a mother of three, delivered the baby herself around 4 a.m. on Saturday and wrapped it with a cloth along with the placenta and placed it beside the soak-away.
Her husband, Quadri Mayowa Adekoya, who claimed he did not know that his wife was pregnant, said he saw blood all over her and also on the floor in the house.
Apart from the blood, he also heard a baby crying outside. He later traced the blood from his room to a
Bagco sack placed beside the soak-away.
The baby and placenta were wrapped with a cloth. "I saw my wife dripping with blood and while still wondering what was wrong, I heard cries of a baby outside. 
I traced the blood and discovered that the cries were coming from a baby inside a Bagco sack placed beside the soak-away. I knew instantly it was my wife who dumped the baby there," he narrated.
He said that he was surprised by the findings, adding that his wife never told him she was pregnant.
"Moreover, we’ve not had sex in the last one year because we were living like a cat and mouse in the house," he said.

13-yr-old gives birth to triplets..61-year-old Father Of Triplets on the run!



The father is a 61-year-old man who is now on the run from authorities who are looking to charge him with sexually abusing a child. A 13-year-old girl has given birth to triplets in the capital of Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic.
 The young mother told local media she was ‘happy’ with her three sons, whom she has named Samuel, Joshua and Jovanny. According to the Daily Mail, all three children are in the intensive care ward of a local hospital as the births were premature, but are all expected to survive.

Alien creature found in South Africa

Local residents in South Africa’s Plettenberg Bay were left stunned and puzzled by a dried-up long and twisted body with a thin torso found in the Eastern Cape. The strange-looking creature that appeared to be a body of an alien creature lying in the grass was discovered by a national park ranger, Llewellyn Dixon.
The mystifying discovery started a rife speculations of alien visitors until the mystery was solved by a local veterinarian. Dr Magdalena Braum of The Crags Veterinary clinic carried out an autopsy, identified the body and confirmed that it was a baby baboon killed by a bite to the head.
Unfortunately, the reason behind the misshapen dried body is because it was dragged around by the mother for three to four weeks by their tail section before finally discarded.

(18+) TRUE STORY: Why I Became A Prostitute (PHOTOS)

nparke1

Meet the desperate single mum who was so terrified of mounting debt that she turned to prostitution.
22-year-old Nicole Parke borrowed a total of £500 from two companies in May last year after being made redundant from her full-time job as a hairdresser.
Unable to find work, the mum of two needed the quick cash to pay for food and bills.
But with her credit cards at maximum, a large overdraft and increasing interest on her loans, Nicole, from Hackney in east London, hit rock bottom.
By the end of May the debt on the payday loans had risen to £1,175 and had taken the total she owed to her creditors to £20,000.
With bailiffs knocking on her door, escorting seemed the only way to make money quick enough to control her mounting debt.
She signed up to an online escorting agency and within a week she was entertaining her first client.
She says: “I never imagined my life would end up the way it did.

Girl Drugged And Defiled By Man She Met On Facebook


She claims she met the man on Facebook and both arranged for a friendly date after one month of lovey dovey inbox messages.
The man picked her up in a Range rover car and drove to upmarket westlands for a drink. She decided to have red bull since that was their first time of meeting and didn’t want to leave a bad impression.
During their date, she excused herself and went to the loo, that was when the man drugged the red bull she was drinking.
The girl only remembers being drowsy and someone dragging her to the car. She was half awake but still weak when the man together with other assailants defiled her repeatedly. She lost count of the number of times she was defiled.
She only came back to her senses when good samaritans found her in Umoja 2, Kenya in a very bad state.
The girl said her v**ina was sore and couldn’t walk properly.
She warns females to be very careful about the male friends they meet on Facebook as not all of them have good intentions.

Christmas Is Idolatrous, Don’t Celebrate It – Pastor Kumuyi





The General Overseer of the Deeper Christian Life Ministry, Pastor W.F Kumuyi, has warned members of the church against celebrating Christmas, saying the celebration of Christmas is
idolatrous and unscriptural.
Kumuyi warned that doing so is making Christians to go back from the commandment of Jesus Christ.
“We don’t celebrate Christmas. It actually came from idolatrous background. That is why you don’t hear us sing what they call Christmas carol, Never! We always say it is the December retreat. We are only
gathering together because it is the holiday period and love the lord more, and rededicate ourselves more.”
The cleric said this on Saturday at the annual national December convention of the church, which held at the church’s camp ground in Ogun State.
He said, “When you find anybody coming in, or any leader, trying to introduce the idolatry of mystery Babylon, that they call Christmas and
you want to bring all the Christmas carol saying that is the day that Jesus was born, and you don’t find that in the Acts of the Apostles or in the early church, then you don’t find that in the
church either. If you don’t know that before, now you know.”
He warned that any of the church’s leaders that tried to introduce the “idolatry of Christmas” into any section of the church would be sanctioned, while also encouraging other believers in Christ to jettison the celebration as part of their sacrifice to perfection.
Kumuyi said the duty of the church is to make people more like Jesus Christ, not join in worldly celebrations.
“We are not trying to make the church turn like the world. We want it to be like Jesus Christ, and more like the Apostles. If you don’t have that mind with us, then you have permission to go to other places,”

Justine Sacco, the PR Exec at InterActiveCorp, who tweeted "Going to Africa, hope I don't get AIDS' has issued a statement, apologizing for making the racist Tweet. She issued the statement today to South African paper, The Star, a day after she was fired by IAC. The apology below...
“Words cannot express how sorry I am, and how necessary it is for me to apologize to the people of South Africa, who I have offended due to a needless and careless tweet. There is an AIDS crisis taking place in this country, that we read about in America, but do not live with or face on a continuous basis. Unfortunately, it is terribly easy to be cavalier about an epidemic that one has never witnessed firsthand.
"For being insensitive to this crisis — which does not discriminate by race, gender or sexual orientation, but which terrifies us all uniformly — and to the millions of people living with the virus, I am ashamed.
"This is my father’s country, and I was born here. I cherish my ties to South Africa and my frequent visits, but I am in anguish knowing that my remarks have caused pain to so many people here; my family, friends and fellow South Africans. I am very sorry for the pain I caused.”

You will recall that all the letters were brought to me by hand. Although both of us discussed some of the issues in those letters, I had not, before now, seen the need for any formal reply since, to me, they contained advice from a former President to a serving President. Obviously, you felt differently because in your last letter, you complained about my not acknowledging or replying your previous letters. Continue...
