*Munachi

This might not be the best of time for former beauty queen and rapper, Munachi Abi, a.k.a, Muna, as she’s is presently battling to save her name from being dragged to the mud as an impostor is using it to dupe unsuspecting fans.

64 Years Old Senator Ita Giwa was captured at a Night Club partying harder just like a "RockStar". Her recent chieftaincy title presented to her by the "Obong" of Calabar really shows how social she is. A "Cougár" like her can never go wrong for the Young males.

The names of the recaptured councils could not be confirmed out of the lot in possession of the violent Islamic sect, Boko Haram.

Is the prediction that Nigeria will disintegrate by 2015 coming to reality?

HOW has Nigeria degenerated to this low level of animal behaviour of killing one another across the country? Nigerian leaders appear helpless. When as a people we collectively surrendered our sovereignty to the state to take care of all, it is the expectation that the state will protect us all. It will act in the best interest of all of us. Nigerians are afraid of their safety in almost every part of the country and the North East in particular. At a time, many well meaning Nigerians thought that the problem was about corruption and power failure, but now insecurity has taken over.

Manchester United Fans Contribute Money To Buy Back Ronaldo

After a weekend of goodbyes to iconic figures Sir Alex Ferguson and Paul Scholes, Manchester United fans might be saying hello again to Cristiano Ronaldo - if they themselves can find the money.

A small band of Australian-based United supporters have created a website where fans can help raise funds to bring back their old favourite, who has a £100million buyout clause, from Real Madrid.
The 'BringRonaldoHome' movement has already received thousands of pledges to buy a United shirt with Ronaldo on it - however it needs 10 million to donate a tenner for this target to be reached.

Most students run away from science and technology classes because they find it difficult to use some of the complex devices during practicals.

To help this set of students, three students of St Luke’s College Jos, Plateau State, Ishaku Yohanna, Shutt Noro and Olawuyi Toyin have come up with a transistor tester which they say is very easy to use and does not require a lot of technical know-how.
They spoke with Vanguard Learning in Lagos. Excerpts:

Welcome to the world of Nigeria’s wicked educators.

Alarmed by the grim prospects of the declaration of a state of emergency by the Presidency in five of their states, Northern elders are converging on Maiduguri, the Borno State capital, with a view to taking far-reaching decisions to halt such a move, which they see as punitive.

Meanwhile as the northern leaders were putting heads together to come up with a decision, the 36 state governors under the aegis, Nigeria Governors’ Forum, NGF, yesterday, urged President Goodluck Jonathan to ignore those agitating for state of emergency in some troubled states.

There were reports that the Presidency was

Facebook friends disagree with Jonathan over emergency rule

Several Facebook friends of President Goodluck Jonathan, on Wednesday, described the state of emergency rule declared in Adamawa, Borno and Yobo states as “partial.”

Although the majority of them applauded the President for taking the decision, they said the presence of political office holders in the affected states might undermine the effectiveness of the measure.

They argued that the political office holders in the states should step down pending the time that normalcy will return to their respective domains.

AMSTERDAM (AFP) – A 93rd-minute header from Branislav Ivanovic gave Chelsea a stunning 2-1 victory over Benfica in the Europa League final on Wednesday as the London club claimed the trophy for the first time in heart-stopping fashion.

The game in Amsterdam seemed destined for extra time after Fernando Torres’ superb 60th-minute opener for Chelsea was cancelled out by an Oscar Cardozo penalty, only for Ivanovic to net a dramatic winner with a looping header in stoppage time.

Club captain John Terry sat the game out with an ankle injury, but just as he had done after last season’s Champions League final, which he missed through suspension, he donned his full kit to lift the trophy alongside fellow Chelsea stalwart Frank Lampard.

LAGOS — Lagos State Government has commenced the disbursement of N81 million relief fund to the 233 victims of the 2008 Ijegun fire disaster in Ikotun-Igando Local Council Development Area, LCDA.

General Manager of Lagos State Emergency Management Agency, LASEMA, Dr. Femi Oke-Osayintolu, said this at the presentation of the list of the affected victims in Alausa, Ikeja.

Oke-Osayintolu said that the entire victims had been divided into four categories: A, B, C and D based on the degree of lose suffered during the disaster.

Action Congress of Nigeria

The Action Congress of Nigeria has advised the National Assembly to reject President Goodluck Jonathan’s declaration of a state of emergency in Borno, Yobe and Adamawa states.

The opposition party, in a statement in Abuja on Wednesday by its National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, described the President’s decision as “lacking in original thinking.”

It said the Boko Haram crisis would have ended a long time ago if the use of force was capable of ending it.

“We hereby reject the declaration of emergency rule in the three states of Adamawa, Borno and Yobe, and we call on the National Assembly to also

LAGOS — Lagos State Government, through the State Technical and Vocational Education Board, LASTVEB, is to introduce technical and vocational education to primary and junior secondary schools.

Speaking at the ministerial briefing to mark the second anniversary of the second term in office of Governor Babatunde Fashola, Commissioner for Education, Mrs. Olayinka Oladunjoye, said the decision was taken to increase the awareness on the importance of technical and vocational education, which she said was the answer to employment challenges.

The Muslim Students’ Society of Nigeria, Lagos State chapter, on Wednesday said it was not part of any decision on the use of Hijab in Lagos State public schools as claimed by the government.

Commissioner for Education, Mrs Olayinka Oladunjoye, was reported in the media to have said the decision not to allow the use of Hijab, except for prayers, was a consensus reached at a meeting chaired by the Commissioner for Home Affairs and Culture Mr Oyinlomo Danmole and attended by stakeholders, including MSSN.

Roasted corn

The CRV utility car was on a very high speed. Suddenly, the driver applied the brakes and started reversing the car. When he finally stopped, the driver, who spotted a French suit, alighted from the car, with a carriage suggesting that he was the owner of the automobile.

He beckoned on one of the maize sellers along the Karu/Nyanya Expressway. After some bargaining, he left with five cobs of maize wrapped inside old sheets of newspaper before it was later put inside a polythene bag.

Soon, some other road users came around to buy the same farm produce. While the majority of them preferred the roasted ones, others went for the fresh ones which they would cook with beans.

LAGOS—Troops, yesterday, moved into Yola, Adamawa State capital and Maiduguri, capital of Borno State, barely 24 hours after President Goodluck Jonathan declared a State of Emergency in Adamawa, Borno and Yobe states in response to Boko Haram insurgency which has claimed several lives and destroyed many property.

Residents and journalists saw military trucks carrying over 2000 soldiers into Yola and Maiduguri, yesterday, in compliance with the president’s orders. The military launched the first phase of its campaign to secure the country’s borders and flush out all terrorists and insurgents from the northern states.

Chronic pain

The average Nigerian is a doctor, even if he never went beyond the elementary school. To get a free and unsolicited drug prescription, just complain of one ailment and the drug referrals begin to flow like a deluge.

People don’t just prescribe drugs or home remedies for others, they also “treat” themselves whenever what they consider manageable health issues crop up. Consequently, by the time many people finally think of seeking professional help, they are almost ready for the morgue.

Will they pay for manipulating men?

When three ladies suffer heartbreaks from boyfriends, they vow never to make the same mistake again and go on the vengeance game of double-dating and manipulating men. These three ambitious women put their relationships at risk for the love of money and fear of heartbreak, without any thought as to what devastating consequences lie in store for them.

(CNN) -- Tuesday is Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg's birthday. He's 29. If that seems insanely young for a billionaire, remember that he co-founded Facebook when he was a teenager.

Zuckerberg has a lot to celebrate. He's amassed a fortune, inspired one of every seven people on the planet to use his product and changed how the world communicates -- all before age 30.
By comparison, when they were 29, Steve Jobs launched the Macintosh computer and Bill Gates was readying the first retail version of Microsoft Windows. And most of the rest of us were just struggling to pay the rent.

About 2,000 security operatives and military hardware, including fighter jets have been deployed to Maiduguri ahead of yesterday’s declaration of State of Emergency.

In neighboring Yobe State, it is not clear how many soldiers were deployed but residents said shortly after the declaration of state of emergency, stop and search operations have been intensified in the state capital while movement have been restricted in other places.

Residents said the deployment of the federal troops, including the army, navy, air force and operatives of the State Security Service (SSS) began at the weekend.

Dear compatriots,

1. It has become necessary for me to address you on the recent spate of terrorist activities and protracted security challenges in some parts of the country, particularly in Borno, Yobe, Adamawa, Gombe, Bauchi, Kano, Plateau and most recently Bayelsa, Taraba, Benue and Nasarawa states. These unfortunate events have led to needless loss of lives and property of many innocent Nigerians including members of our security forces.

Police authorities said the suspect stabbed his 46-year-old father to death while the man was attempting to enter his room.

We learnt that Olanrewaju was a student of University of Ilorin, Kwara State, but was expelled because he had poor grades.

Mikel Obi

Chelsea star Mikel Obi admits Chelsea have missed Didier Drogba leading the line this season but he is confident they are now ready to win a major competition without him.

The Europa League Final against Benfica on Wednesday night represents Chelsea’s last chance to claim a trophy this season, yet they will not be able to rely on Drogba’s heroics to triumph in Europe this time. Drogba who now plays for Galatasaray of Turkey scored their equaliser against Bayern Munich and then the winning goal in the Champions League final last year.

The Nigerian motion picture practitioners under the auspice of the Screenwriters Guild of Nigeria has petitioned President Goodluck Jonathan over the appointment of Engr. Danjuma Dabo as the new Managing Director of the Nigerian Film Corporation, (NFC).

The guild, in a statement signed by its president, Mr. Chike Bryan rejected Engr. Dabo’s appointment, urging Mr. President to use his good office to reverse the appointment so as not to jeopardise the existing relationship between his government and Nollywood practitioners.

Omotola Jalade Ekeinde is one actress that remains sexy and classy despite being a mother of four grown up children. She competes easily with most single stars in the razzmatazz industry in Nigeria, commanding a large number of secret male admirers.
In an industry, where many male fans would do everything possible to get any female celebrity they admire, there is no doubt that Omotola would not be left out of such.

Does President Jonathan deserves a pass mark?

I JUST read Mr. Remi Adekoya’s piece in the Guardian of the U.K. entitled ‘Goodluck Jonathan’s report card for Nigeria? Must try harder’ in which he praised President Jonathan for a booming economy but came down hard on him for failing to help Nigeria’s poor.

When Adekoya says “Infrastructure also remains a problem. Without a modern road network, doing business in Nigeria will remain prohibitively expensive and logistically challenging”, he betrays a surface understanding of recent events in Nigeria.a

Nurudeen Jewoola
Two months ago, when Nurudeen Jewoola, aka Astro, a journalist with Newswatch Daily, began experiencing constant fatigue, he naturally blamed it on the hectic schedule of his job.

It was a near-death experience that brought to light the condition of his health and the state of his kidneys.

“I had no inkling that my kidneys were failing. The only symptom I had at the time was constant fatigue and I didn’t know it had anything to do with my kidneys. Then one day, I went to OPIC office at Gateway Building along Lagos-Ibadan Expressway to make enquiries about a story I was working on. All of a sudden, I came down with an intense cold; I was shivering.

Personally I don't believe in all dem Illuminati talk...mostly because I don't understand it. But someone just drew my attention to Chris Brown's 24th birthday cake. The singer turned 24 on May 5th and that's the cake he celebrated with.

"I can act nude' - actress Uche Ogbodo says

In a new interview, the actress says she can act nude if that's what's required of her. She explains:
"I can do anything in acting. There is no limit to what I can do on stage as an actress because I'm a professional actress and I don't care because that role I am playing can is touching somebody somewhere. If you give me a nude role that has something to teach people, and does not affect any culture and tradition, I will do it. That is why I am an actress. I don't care what people might say or think about me
