Gov Fayose Spotted At The Airport : Says “No I’m Not Running Away”
correspodent yesterday at the Nnamdi
Azikiwe Airport with his entourage,
desperately trying to book a ticket to
Madagascar.
On closer inspection, we were shocked to
realize it was Ekiti Governor, Ayo Fayose.
News making the rounds have it that after
his scathing Newspaper adverts wishing
death on General Buhari, Fayose is
stunned by the current trend the results
are following. Fearing a Buhari win and
subsequent punishment for his libelous
adverts, he decided to run away.
We could clearly hear him saying “Eh?
Aburo no ticket? Ah. Wahala ti de o. Any
standing? Joo fun mi standing, mo like e,
mo manage. Ah, no standing? Mo ku. Kosi
space ninu cargo hold? I will manage it.
Ah my broda epp me……epp me……….if
this baba wins, mo ku. The suffrin will
not be a small something. Epp me”.
When we approached him he immediately
changed his tune. “What? Me? Running
away for fear that Buhari will win?
Rubbish. I fear no man. I am only going to
Madagascar for vacation.Why are you
asking why I was begging to stand? I like
standing. It’s good exercise”
#NigeriaDecides: Sensing Defeat, PDP Moves To Frustrate Announcement Of Presidential Election Results
Officials of Nigeria’s ruling Peoples
Democratic Party, PDP, on Tuesday
moved to frustrate the further announcement of
presidential results.
The electoral agency, INEC, in Abuja had
Monday released the results of 19 states which
showed the candidate of the opposition All
Progressives Congress, APC, leading by over 2
million votes. Results that have also been announced
by state INEC officials in other states, yet to be
announced in Abuja, also show the opposition
candidate set to emerge as the elected president.
However, as the announcement of results was to
continue at the International Conference Centre in
Abuja on Tuesday, PDP officials stampeded the
process accusing Mr. Jega of bias. For several
minutes, they prevented the further announcement of
results alleging among others, that Attahiru Jega, the
INEC boss, refused to collect a petition they sent
about the elections; and that he also gave unverified
results to the APC.
“Jega is not supposed to be bias. Jega is not suppose
to be tribal,” former minister Godsday Orubebe who
was among the protesters shouted.
He said the Mr. Jega commissioned a fact finding
team on reports of malpractices from Rivers State
but has not acted on the Peoples Democratic Party
complaints on results from Kano, Katsina, Kaduna
and Gombe, which were won by the opposition.
He was unyielding as Mr. Jega and other INEC
officials appealed to him to allow the collation to go
on.
He said the collation would not continue except Mr.
Jega leaves the venue for his office to “address
PDP complaints.”

Husband Beats Wife To Pulp Over Disagreement On Election Results - Family
A commercial motorcyclist, Raphael (surname withheld),
yesterday, allegedly beat his wife, Bose, to a pulp over
disagreement on the outcome of the Presidential and
National Assembly elections.
A source told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) that the
couple, who live in Igangu area of Omu-Aran in
Irepodun Local Government area of Kwara State are
members of different political parties.
According to reports, the result of the elections, which was
widely believed to favour a particular party in the area,
was said to have created frosty relationship between the
husband and wife.
Trouble started between the couple when Bose, in the
course of celebrating her party’s victory in the House of
Representatives and the Senatorial elections in the area,
made unpleasant gestures toward Abiodun.
This was said to have angered Abiodun, who immediately
pounced on Bose and inflicted injuries on her.
It took the intervention of neighbours and some commercial
motorcyclists in the area to save the situation from
degenerating further.
An eyewitness, Sikiru Adewale, a commercial motorcyclist,
told NAN that Abiodun accused his wife of not being
sympathetic to the failure of his party.
Adewale said Abiodun was not happy with Bose’s attitude
because she was always the major beneficiary of his party’s
numerous largesse to the family.
“I think the husband was not happy with the way his wife
reacted to the outcome of the election results in the area,
even when she has benefited immensely from her husband’s
party’s largesse.’’ (NAN)

Teenager Kills Boyfriend For Attempted Rape - Crime
The police in Lagos have arrested an 18-year-old lady,
Kafayat Olawale, for allegedly stabbing to death her
boyfriend, Ojo Ijabike, 32.
The incident happened on Friday on Olutola Adebayo
Street, off Idimu Road, in the Alimosho area of Lagos
State.
Investigations by PUNCH Metro revealed that Ijabike,
an indigene of Owo, Ondo State, had attempted to
forcefully have carnal knowledge of the suspect when there
was a scuffle between them.
Olawale, who hails from Osun State, was said to have
stabbed the deceased in the heart region, while the 32-
year-old victim inflicted injuries on her.
The landlord of the house, who heard the noise, was said
to have broken the locked door and met the duo lying in a
pool of blood.
They were reportedly rushed to a private hospital in the
area where Ijabike, an electrician, gave up the ghost.
When our correspondent visited the Cele Egbe area, where
the suspect was an apprentice in a hairdressing salon, he
met her boss, who said Olawale was tricked into Ijabike’s
apartment.
The woman, who did not identify herself, said, “She is a
little girl and I often tried to guide her home whenever it
was late in the night. She cannot hurt a fly.
“Ojo (Ijabike) bought her a phone and she brought it to the
office that morning. He called her and said he forgot the
charger at home, that she should come over to pick it.
“It was the charger she went to pick when he locked the
door against her and wanted to sleep with her.”
A young man, who claimed to be the “real boyfriend of the
suspect”, said the deceased was not in a relationship with
Olawale.
The barber, who said they had been dating since 2014, told
PUNCH Metro he had warned Olawale to stop collecting
gifts from the deceased.
“But she kept telling me it was just a normal friendship. I
tried my best to always please her, but I am aware the guy
was also giving her money and gifts and I knew his
intention was not pure.
“When he bought her the phone, I frowned at it. I was
told it was on Friday when she was on her way to work
that he called her to come over to his place to take the
charger of the phone which he forgot to give her.
“That was how he wanted to take advantage of her and
things went awry,” he said.
Our correspondent visited where the incident happened on
Olutola Adebayo Street and met co-tenants of the
deceased.
A girl took our correspondent to the one room apartment of
the deceased, which was shut.
A drama however played out when our correspondent was
directed to the landlord of the house, who quickly denied
being the owner of the house.
“I am new in this house and just rented a shop here. I
don’t know anything and cannot say anything,” the elderly
man said.
Other residents equally declined to speak with our
correspondent. PUNCH Metro subsequently visited the
private hospital, where the duo was rushed to on Modupe
Shittu Street.
A worker, who spoke on the condition of anonymity,
explained that the deceased was still alive when he was
brought to the hospital.
“When they were rushed here, they were both alive. We,
however, observed that the man was stabbed in the heart
region. He died soon after. The girl also sustained injuries.
I learnt that it was after the girl stabbed him that he
collected the knife and began stabbing her in anger,” the
worker said.
PUNCH Metro gathered that the deceased had first used
the weapon to threaten the suspect so she could submit to his
desire.
Our correspondent was told that while the corpse of the
victim was taken to the morgue, the suspect was arrested by
policemen from the Ikotun division.
A police source said the suspect was stabbed more than six
times in her back.
He said, “The lady was also injured. She was first
hospitalised before she was arrested.”
The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer,
Kenneth Nwosu, confirmed the incident, adding that
investigations were ongoing

'Arrest Fani Kayode Now For Announcing Unofficial Results' -APC
The Buhari Support Organisations (BSO) has called for
the arrest of Mr Femi Fani-Kayode, the Director,
Media, Peoples Democratic Party Presidential Campaign
Organisation for announcing unofficial results.
The Director, Media and Information of the BSO, Dr
Chidia Maduekwe, made the call on Monday in Abuja at a
news conference.
According to Maduekwe, this is the time for security
agencies to show their neutrality by arresting Fani-
Kayode because the only authority to announce election
results is the Independent National Electoral Commission
(INEC).
The organisation claimed that Fani-Kayode had breached
relevant sections of the Electoral Act by announcing on
Sunday that the PDP was leading in the presidential
election in 23 states of the Federation.
“We ask the security agencies to immediately arrest Fani-
Kayode for breaching relevant sections of the Electoral Act
which forbids any organ outside INEC from officially
declaring election results.
“His arrest for further questioning will be a clear indication
that the security agencies are truly unbiased participants in
this electoral process.
“His declaration is also a breach of both the first and second
Abuja Peace Accord signed by the presidential candidates,”
Maduekwe said.
He called on the international community and observers to
note the steps being taken by the ruling party to cause severe
breach of peace and call them to order.
He urged APC supporters to maintain the peace as they
await the official announcement of authentic INEC results
for the Saturday elections.
“We ask Nigerians to join us in saying `No’ to this recent
manifestation of habitual impunity.
“We appeal to all our numerous supporters to sustain their
calmness in the face of current provocation and abuse of our
electoral processes,” he said.
Maduekwe said that APC would reject “in its entirety, the
use of security to compromise an election process that has
been commended as having high quotient of integrity”.
He urged INEC to adhere strictly to guidelines for
elections which protected candidates through active
participation of party agents.
“We request INEC to adhere to the guideline which
makes it mandatory for polling unit party agents to sign
result sheet forming the basis for collation of result at
collation centres.

China Pastor sentenced to one year in prison after protesting removal of cross
opposing Zhejiang province's intense campaign to remove
crosses from churches. Provincial authorities pulled down
400 crosses from the rooftop of churches, saying they
violated the building code.
Some sources say the Christian faith has been the target of
the ruling communist party, because of its rapid growth and
growing influence.
At press time, Zhang Kai-Huang Yizi’s lawyer via a
telephone conversation, told Associate Press(AP) that his
client was put on the stand for 6hours and the court of the
city of Pingyang found Huang guilty of gathering crowds
to disrupt social order. He was sentenced to one year in
prison.
Huang says he does not regret his action, while calling on
local church leaders should put back the toppled crosses.
Internet Fraud Polytechnic student jailed for N100,000 car scam in Edo
Bello Dominic Oizamisi , has been handed a one-year jail
term for organising a car scam on the internet.
Justice Sabiu Yahuza of the Federal High Court, Dutse ,
found Oizamisi guilty of defrauding a buyer of the sum of
N100,000 naira and sentenced him.
The court heard that the accused had in January 2013
advertised a car for sale on the internet which one Abdul-
Azeez Abdul-Rahman indicated he wanted to buy.
Oizamisi then negotiated with Abdul-Rahman and
demanded the said sum which the latter paid through a
new generation.
The buyer waited a while for his car to be delivered.
He then alerted the Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission (EFCC) which investigated and arrested the
scammer.

sentence with a N100,000 fine option.
Muhammadu Buhari 'Be patient and vigilant,' Presidential candidate urges Nigerians
of the country, with die-hard and passive supporters of
political parties hoping their candidates will be declared
winner.
Violence has erupted in a few parts like Rivers,
Anambra, Bauchi and others as some are calling for
cancellation of the Presidential and National Assembly
elections in their regions
In the spirit of peace and civility, the Presidential
candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Major
General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd.) has urged Nigerians
to be patient and vigilant .
Buhari said this via his official Twitter handle
@ThisIsBuhari moments ago.
“Fellow Nigerians, I urge you to exercise patience and
vigilance as we wait for all results to be announced ,”
Buhari said.
The former military head of state had on Saturday,
March 28, expressed satisfaction at the conduct of the
Presidential election, while faulting some areas like Rivers
State that violence was recorded.
However, results that have been announced show that
Goodluck Jonathan won in Ekiti State while Buhari is
leading in Osun and Oyo States. The 10 local government
areas in Ogun State that have been announced also show
APC is ahead in the state.
Similarly, INEC Chairman, Prof. Attahiru Jega has
said that results have not been collated in 23 states,
dismissing claims by the spokesman of the Jonathan
Campaign Organization, Femi Fani-Kayode , who said
that PDP is winning the presidential election in 23 states
and has scored 64 per cent.
" I don’t know the sources of such information (that the
PDP is leading in 23 states). The results have not been
collated in 23 states. Fairly very few states have actually
collated. In fact, only two states have been
collated….There is the need to be careful about the
information being put there by people who are clearly
partisan," Jega said.
Gen. Buhari wins in Ogun state
announced the winner of the Presidential election in Ogun
state. The state Collating Officer, Duro Oni, while
announcing the results at the commission's secretariat in
Ogun state this night said of the total 559,613 votes cast,
Gen Buhari pulled 308,290 to defeat President Jonathan
of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, who pulled
207,950

One Major Secrete Pastors Dont Like Telling Women
LIKE TELLING WOMEN As everybody knows,
pastors are people under special missions which are
heavenly assigned. And this is a calling which comes in
three different ways. There are some who are
handpicked by God himself to his vineyard so as to
oversee the affairs of its sheep. There are other pastors
who are made to be pastors or church elders. The third
happens to be those ones who willingly made themselves
pastors over one reason or the other. No one out of these
three groups is underrated by God provided the mission
at hand is wisely followed up has being stipulated by
God through his words.
Right from ages, pastors are being seen as the
intermediary between God and Man. And through the
offices they occupy in the house of God. Many of them
have been witnessed to be mightily used by God as they
performed body-shivering miracles through the power of
anointing. Many of them have given prophecies and
revelations that have come to pass and these made them
more respectable to their followers.
People give respect to pastors and that is very normal.
But when one think about the way some women give
their own respect to pastors these days one would see
vividly that its more abusing than being normal. Some
women have even gone far by given pastors the kind of
attention, time and respect which they could not give half
of it to their husbands.
Recently, we heard it from a reliable source how a
pastor from one of the African countries forbade every
woman in his church from wearing pants while coming to
church. He claimed it was through their private parts he
would cast all demons and the funniest part of the story
was that these women obliged. We even saw the clear
picture of the pastor as he was matching on a lady
private part while the lady lied on the floor.
A lot of homes have crumbled through the activities of
many pastors. We have seen where a pastor would
pollute the heart of a woman against her husband just
because he’s having salacious interest in her. Some
pastors would even call women into their private offices
for what they call counseling or deliverance and at the
end they would end up having sex with them.
Many a time one wonders how some women follow or
have dealings with pastors. It is unwise for you as a
woman to answer a call of any pastor whether fake or
genuine, who ask you into a private place without any
third person. One major secret you women don’t know
about pastors is that they too are human beings. They
are flesh and not spirits or angels whose bodies cannot be
moved or whose manhood cannot get erected when they
see the faces of beautiful women or their private parts.
Imagine how possible it’s that a mortal body, a mere
flesh, would inside a solitary conferment, See an unveil
chest of a woman with a firm breast, glorified with a
nice pointed nipples and his manhood would not start
rising for work. It take grace for this not to occur.
In a not shell, pastors are also human beings. They also
feel the way ordinary men would feel, but the difference
is that they take the act of hiding feelings as one of their
ways of working. Thus women have to be very careful.
There is no any reason why a pastor would ask you into
a solitary place and you just agree as simple as that.
Whether counseling or deliverance or prayer could be
equally done in any place where there is a third person.
Pastors are one of those people who know how to hide
feeling but they would never reveal this secret to you
quickly until their actions are well plan. But mind you
some still maintain their standards comes rain comes sun.
Graphic photos: APC members shot dead in Rivers state, many arrested
statement from the APC in Rivers state. Looks like
election in some areas in the state was very violent. Read
statement below and see the pics after the cut.. *viewer
discretion advised*
Today’s presidential and National Assembly
elections have turned out to be a big nightmare for
the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Rivers
State, with the members being killed, attacked and
disenfranchised in various parts of the State.
“Armed militias working for the Peoples Democratic
Party (PDP) have intensified their killing of APC
members. Scores have already been killed and several
others marked for elimination. This morning in Kpite
Town, Tai Ward 2 and other areas of the State, five
people were shot dead by PDP’s armed militia, and that
was before accreditation commenced,” Rivers APC
Chairman, Dr. Davies Ibiamu Ikanya, said in a
statement in Port Harcourt. Pictures of our killed
members are attached.
Lamenting his party’s ordeal, Ikanya said: “It is sad that
PDP and its collaborators are targeting APC strongholds
and chieftains for attacks and killings. To intimidate our
people and contrary to the court ruling forbidding the use
of the Army in this election, there has been a massive
deployment of soldiers in the State with clear instruction
to shoot at sight any APC agent that refuses to comply
with the evil plot of PDP to write the results of the
election at some designated areas of the State in favour of
PDP.”
Chief Ikanya gave the following specific horrifying
examples of APC’s travails:
•Hon. Chidiebere Okwuwolu, former Commissioner and
currently an APC leader, was arrested by police and
taken to Olu Obasanjo Police Station in Port Harcourt
along with 99 other arrested APC members scattered in
various Police Stations in the State.
•At Ubima, the home town of Governor Chibuike
Amaechi, the INEC results sheets are currently with
Chief Nyesome Wike, the guber candidate of PDP in
Rivers State. Governor Amaechi has refused to embark
upon any accreditation because of lack of result sheets in all
the polling units in the State, a situation contrived by
INEC and PDP to make room for PDP to rig the
election.
•At Andoni, the Local Government Area of Rivers State
APC Chairman, Dr. Davies Ibiamu Ikanya, and Chief
Uche Secondus, the National Vice Chairman of PDP
and his cousin, Engr Tele Ikuru (the Deputy Governor of
Rivers State who few days defected to PDP) hell has
been let loose; electoral materials have been hijacked by
PDP agents in connivance with the Army that has been
threatening to arrest and kill any APC chieftains in sight.
•The Caretaker Committee Chairman of Andoni Local
Government area, Esuku Esuku, has been ordered out of
Ngo, headquarters of Local Government, by the Joint
Task Force (JTF)/army personnel deployed to Ngo, or
be killed. •At Abonnema, headquarters of Akuku-Toru
Local Government, materials are being distributed from the
house of Minister of Sports, Chief Tammy Danagogo,
instead of the INEC office, without any security
personnel. Danagogo has held the policemen that ought to
escort these materials to the polling units hostage and
injuring DPO of Abonnema, Mr. Joseph Kayode for
daring to accompany Hon Isobo Jack the Commissioner
for Urban Development to the Polling Unit, relevant
pictures attached.
•PDP thugs hijacked materials and INEC personnel
meant for Akuku-Toru Wards 15, 16 and 17. The
hijacked materials and men were taken to Freetown, a
hinterland coastal community. The attack was led by two
youths whose identities are known. •In Tombia, in same
Akuku-Toru Local Government, PDP had by Friday
night filled the community with Ijaw Youth Council (IYC)
bouncers who were attacking APC members and, at the
same time, preventing those returning home to vote from
entering the town. They were doing so in the presence of
soldiers who were too few in number. The Caretaker
Committer Chairman and others were injured on
Friday. The over 30 APC members that were to act as
agents were arrested. •In Buguma, which is the
Headquarters of Asari-Toru Local government, policemen
were busy all day arresting APC chieftains. •In Gokana
Local Government, trained INEC ad-hoc personnel were
replaced with untrained manpower suspected to be PDP
members. This is believed to have been done in connivance
with the LGA Electoral Officer (EO).
•At Opobo/Nkoro, the Local Government Area of Dr.
Dakuku Adol Peterside, the gubernatorial candidate of
APC, the house of Opobo/Nkoro Caretaker Committee
Chairman, Loveday Jaja, was torched after he escaped to
avoid being killed by the PDP hoodlums. Electoral
materials meant for the Local Government Area have been
diverted to John Africa/Ada Tom Pepple Compound
area where they are thumb-printing in favour of PDP.
One Barrister J.B Pepple was caught with stained
thumbs and he admitted to thumb-printing. Another person
Alafagha Oko-Jaja had his head broken head and he is
seriously bleeding. No one is sure if he will survive. The
army has been going around the community harassing
people while Chiefs in Kalaibiama are compelling them to
vote for President Goodluck Jonathan of PDP. This is
said to be on the orders of Chief of Army Staff, Major-
General Kenneth Minimah, who is also from the town.
Mr. Harold Peterside a PDP Agent in Unit 006
Ward, Oopbo/Nkoro was caught with INEC Register
and fake Results Sheet at the Polling Unit.
•At Oyigbo LGA, 40,000 incident forms were being
given out at 6:30 a.m. but they stopped when the APC
Agent complained about it. He was however asked to
leave the INEC office at about 11:30 a.m. Already,
120,000 incident forms have been to Port Harcourt
LGA, 80,000 to Obio/Akpor and 50,000 to Ikwerre
LGA. The incident forms are one of the ways PDP
plans to use to rig the elections around the country,
especially in the South South and South East.
•In Okrika, there was sudden change and appearance of
fresh and inadequately trained INEC ad-hoc staff who
tried to persuade voters to undergo manual accreditation,
claiming that card readers assigned to Okrika LGA polling
booths were not working (even without trying them). In a
few units where APC supporters insisted on ‘No Card,
No Accreditation’, the card readers mysteriously began to
work. But in majority of the places manual accreditation is
being undertaken. Also in Okrika, there is insufficient
delivery of electoral materials by INEC. Up till now no
one, not even party agents, has seen the original result
collation sheets. The INEC officials claim it is not
everything that they must explain. Meanwhile, INEC
delivered incident forms far excess of the number of
registered voters.
Meanwhile, PDP stalwarts are openly parading bundles
of PVC cards in their possession. Rowland Sekibo,
accompanied by police and PDP thugs armed with guns,
are going around chasing away APC members from doing
accreditation. They had done so in wards 1, 7, 8, 9 and 2.
They tore the tags of our agents, beat them and chased
them away, injuring scores of them.
“We condemn this brazen rape of democracy by PDP in
collaboration with INEC and the security agents. It is
unacceptable as this is not what democracy should be.
PDP should allow Rivers people to vote without guns
pointed at their throats,” Dr. Ikanya said in the statement.
Dr Ikanya passed a vote of no confidence on the State
Resident Electoral Commissioner, Gesila Khan, declaring
that she has failed woefully as she is bent on carrying out
her secret agreement with PDP to return victory to the
party at all cost. Whatever trash she will announce as the
result of today’s election is not acceptable to us and we ask
for her immediate transfer and a new date be set for a
proper election in Rivers State than the sham and charade
that was calculated to rubbish INEC and democracy.
The pictures of our killed members are attached.
Long Live APC!
Long Live Rivers State!!

Tragic Young man gets hit by car with his headphones on
Friday morning in Ojota when he got knocked down by an
incoming vehicle.
Eyewitnesses say he had earphones plugged in and didn't
hear the sound of an incoming vehicle. Ojota is one of
Lagos' busiest bus-stops and thus, the State Government
constructed overhead pedestrian bridge at the bus-stop to
reduce the chances pedestrians getting hit by incoming
vehicles.
May D Singer allegedly beats his baby mama frequently
Mayokun Awodumila allegedly beats up his baby mama
Debola.
Debola who is the mother of May D's 2-year-old son
Olamipoju sent Linda Ikeji a tell-all email about the
domestic violence she suffered by the hand of May D.
Read it here:
"My name is Debola I’m sure you know who I am, you
put me on ur blog about 3yrs ago, for tattooing a Nigerian
artist name on my body, I’m MayD’s baby Mama… I
haven’t come here to rant or make noise, but to say some
important things that I feel people should know. I will try
to make my story as short as possible.
I was with MayD for 8years, which implies we were
together from the get-go, before his career began and
when nobody knew him obviously. For many years I
stayed with him, obviously as his girlfriend, I supported
him, financially, physically and emotionally. Back then
when I was in Babcock we passed through loads of
hurdles together being that he was struggling and incapable
of providing for himself and I was obliged to supporting
him financially. Even when it was extreme, like giving him
a semester’s tuition to pay for studio sessions while I
stupidly stayed at home, the things we do for love right?I
practically paused my life for him, for us at a point. The
sad part about this whole thing is that I never got tired I
did everything that was within my reach. He stopped to
cater for his kid a while ago, which I took responsibilities
for and started to do diligently..
Now, like most relationships we had major problems which
included the frequent cheating and escapades with girls
which I obviously endured as I was consumed by the
“main chick” title. Not that I was even getting any good
thing in return, he never for one day acknowledge me, or
made me feel like we were in a relationship together. I
had no simple freedom to do whatsoever on my own, be it
business, friendship etc.
The thing I couldn’t cope with was the fact that he beat
me up at every slightest opportunity he had, he beats me up
like a man, he beat me up so badly infront of our little boy
all the time. He assaulted me regularly, I suffered
domestic violence in silence, and this last time he beat me
up so badly and I passed out.. I saw my life flash right
infront of me. I witnessed been close to death, I prayed to
survive each time he pounced on me, damaging several
properties nd breaking diff stuff on my head.
This had to be my last experience, as I thought to myself,
who will take care of my child for me if I die in his
hands? Who will he call mother? Who will stand by him?
So I left the relationship hurriedly without thinking of
how much time, energy, resources that must have been
wasted….

AD Presidential Candidate steps down for Buhari
Democracy (AD), Rafiu Salau Thursday stepped
down for the presidential candidate of the All
Progressives Congress (APC), General Muhammadu
Buhari.
Addressing journalists in Abuja, Salau said he is
stepping down for Buhari to save the country’s
democracy from one party system which he said
encourages dictatorship.
He said: “The PDP had been in power for 16 years,
and it has tried its best. No matter how good the
performance of PDP, you need to vote for another
party before you can know that you always get a better
performance when you create a competition among the
parties.
“One party system takes away democracy from the
owners, and denies them the right to use their
democratic system to determine the level of the national
development. No matter how good the performance of
one party system, it cannot perform 10 percent of a
democratic system with at least two strong parties that
make the people to have the opportunity to control their
democracy”.
He called on his supporters and all the party members
to vote for Buhari on March 28 presidential election,
saying Buhari is the candidate of all the democrats
who will bring the desire the country have been
yearning for change.
“It is your responsibility to vote for another party that
will also executes its program. This is the only way the
country can move forward like other democratic
countries that have the control of their democracy. You
need to create competition among the parties so they
can always go back to their drawing board to redesign
their program for your benefits.
“I urged all of you the 68 million voters, should vote
for Gen, Buhari the candidate of all the democrats
who will bring change. Vote APC. Show the world
that you are in control of your democracy,” he said.
Responding, National chairman of the APC, John
Oyegun, commended the AD candidate for identifying
with Buhari, and urged those who are yet to decide
on who vote to emulate Salau and support the APC
presidential candidate.
Man cuts open giant snake's belly & you won't believe what he saw inside
hugely swollen stomach in the bushes and decided to cut the
belly open to see what was inside the snake. What they
saw left them shocked. It was another giant reptile. The
snake's last meal had actually been another huge snake,
both nearly identical in size. The man pulled the second
snake out of the body of the first one and laid them both on
the ground next to each other. See the photos after the
cut...
Love and Marriage 4 sleep styles and what they mean
closed, drool on pillow) can actually tell a lot about your
relationship.
Whether you cuddle together, or just stick to your
individual sides of the bed, these sleep patterns also
translates to different things about your union.
According to The Nest , here's what your night time body
language says about your love life.
1. Classic Spoon: This is a full front-to-back contact,
with one person tucked into the other; you know…
spooning. What it means: Lying like this shows you
have a pure outlook on your marriage and you take on
more traditional roles. The person on the outside likes
to feel as if they can shield your marriage from
problems, while the person on the inside is sensitive.
Classic Spooners are supportive and never go to bed
angry. Quirks & Perks: Spooners are all about
comfort — and comfort foods. You both love digging into
apple pie, meatloaf and basically anything that’s warm
and gooey.
2. The Football: This is when both of you are on your
sides facing each other with one foot touching. What it
means: Having just one foot touching is more than
enough contact for footballers, who don’t need 24/7
TLC to feel close. You both have jam-packed
schedules…and love it! Sure, you don’t spend as much
quality time with each other as you’d like, but that
makes those rare moments together special. Quirks &
Perks: A lazy Sunday is just about your worst
nightmare. You’d much rather wake up early, go for a
power run, then check out that new brunch place your
(many) friends have been buzzing about.
3. Cliff-Hangers: This has to do with sleeping on
opposite sides of the bed with your backs to each other.
What it means: Getting shut-eye in this position can
simply mean you’re practical (hey, there’s plenty of
room in that big bed) and like your leg room, but it may
signal a bit of distance in your relationship. Quirks &
Perks: You like art. He likes sports. You’re a
vegetarian. He puts bacon on everything. You drive a
hybrid. He drives a Hummer. You’re total opposites,
but you also truly appreciate all of each other’s
differences — and personal space.
4. Tetherball: This is when one of you is on your back
with a single hand on the other person. What it means:
You’re independent but also willing to compromise. You
disagree on politics, religion and how the toilet seat
should be left, but love finding common ground as a
couple. Quirks & Perks: Romantic dinners can often
turn into heated talks for you debaters. Luckily, nothing
turns you on more than a glass of wine and some hot
back-and-forth.
Photo: Father and son arraigned for $4,256 internet scam
EFCC, on March 24, 2015 arraigned Justice
Unuafe and his son, Omorigho Unuafe, before
Justice Lambo Akanbi of the Federal High Court

charge bordering on obstruction, possession of
fraudulent documents and obtaining money by false
pretense.
Father and son were arrested by operatives of the
EFCC upon intelligence gathered while
investigating a reported case of internet scam.
The duo who are jobless, were found in possession of
Honda Accord 2004 model and an Acura ZDX, without
document to prove how they got the vehicles. They also
have an almost completed storey building located in Delta
State . The accused persons decidedly refused to give the
EFCC operatives the required information needed from
them for the investigation.
One of the charges reads:
“That you Justice Unuafe on or about the 12th day of
February, 2015 at Port Harcourt within the jurisdiction
of this honorable court did obstruct the officers of the
Economic and Financial Crimes Commission by refusing
to give the details of your account number, the details of
your relation who sold Acura ZDX with registration
number SMK 307 DC to you and other information
requested from you and thereby committed an offence
contrary to and punishable under Section 38 (2) (b0 of the

jurisdiction of this honorable court with intent to defraud,
did obtain the total sum of $4,256 (Four Thousand Two
Hundred and Fifty Six Dollars) by false pretence from
one Cheng Chung Shin by representing yourself as
MARO MOTON, which you knew to be false and
thereby committed an offence contrary to Section 1 (1) (a)
of the Advance Fee Fraud and Other Fraud Related
Offences Act, 2006 and Punishable under Section 1 (3) of
the said Act.”
They pleaded not guilty when the charges were read to
them.
In view of their pleas, counsel to EFCC, Sadiq
Hussain, prayed the court to fix a date for trial to
commence, while the accused persons be remand in EFCC
custody.
The defence counsel, C. I. Anyaghbuna, however,
pleaded for bail for the accused persons.
In his ruling, Justice Akanbi granted them bail in the sum
of N500,000 (Five Thousand Naira) with one surety each
in like sum. The sureties must have their addresses verified
by the EFCC, and must be responsible members of the
society.
The matter has been adjourned to May 20, 2015 for trial.
PVC manufacturer arrested, detained by DSS
Abuja - The manufacturer of the Permanent Voters
Cards (PVCs) that would be used for the 2015
general elections, Sani Musa, has been arrested by the
Department of State Security Services (DSS),

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) had on
Wednesday alleged that Musa was a card carrying
member of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and
ardent supporter of Muhammadu Buhari.
Findings have, however, revealed that Musa is still a
card carrying member of PDP under which he
aspired to be governor in 2003 and later senator for
Niger East in 2011.

Oshodi Riot Update How armed OPC members, political thugs terrorized residents
Thursday, March 26, after armed men invaded the area.
Residents and witnesses say that the men, numbering close
to 50, were members of the Oodua People’s Congress
(OPC).
The gang members wore masks and carried sophisticated
weapons with which they shot sporadically into the air,
Punch reports.
A vendor, identified as Samuel Ojukwu , told Punch that
the attackers were supporters of President Goodluck
Jonathan.
“This morning, as I was arranging newspapers on the
newsstand, I saw some people running. I didn’t know
what was pursuing them, so I sat at the stand,” Ojukwu
said.
“Then, these heavily armed men showed up. I started
shaking with fright where I sat as they approached my
newsstand. The man who led them had two pistols in his
side pockets, and held another one in his hand. One of
them came to me and said, ‘Baba, don’t be afraid. When
you vote on Saturday, vote for Jonathan.’ I was so
afraid,” he added.
“Some of the hoodlums wore masks and I believe they are
known faces. That was why they covered their faces,”
another witness, Ojuolape Obafemi , told Punch.
“They entered into streets and nobody could come out to
challenge them. I believe they were OPC members
because they wore all kinds of ammunition and amulet,” she
added.
Obafemi said further that after the group armed with guns
left the area, another group armed with sticks, bottles and
cutlasses took over and began to harass passersby.
A bus conductor in the area stated that the riot was
connected with the rivalry between the All Progressives
Congress (APC) and the Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP).
The violence was later quelled upon the arrival of the
police and other security agents.
OPC members had earlier unleashed mayhem on Ikorodu
Road in Lagos when they took to the streets to campaign
for Jonathan and demand the resignation of Independent
National Electoral Commission (INEC) Chairman,
Attahiru Jega.
Exercises For A Natural Breast-Lift
bras are not your only chance to make your breasts appear
bigger and healthier? Natural breast-lift is really possible
thanks to simple but super effective workout moves that we
will learn today. When working out, we usually forget to
pay attention to our muscles above and around the breasts.
But we shouldn’t! Here are some of the most useful and
highly effective exercises and a bit of motivation for you!
By following this advice you’ll be able to get a lift in your
chest in just a few weeks! Also, these exercises help to slim
and strengthen shoulders, arms and abs.
Dumbbell bench press exercise. The main muscles that
are worked here are in the chest. But you strengthen your
shoulders and triceps as well. Take a pair of dumbbells one
in each hand, lie face-up on a bench, hands resting. You
should lower them until they’re close to the sides of your
chest. Now raise the dumbbells up with the help of your
thighs until arms are extended, hold them in front of you at
shoulder width. Do 10 reps without rest.
Dumbbell bench press exercise. The main muscles that
are worked here are in the chest. But you strengthen your
shoulders and triceps as well. Take a pair of dumbbells one
in each hand, lie face-up on a bench, hands resting. You
should lower them until they’re close to the sides of your
chest. Now raise the dumbbells up with the help of your
thighs until arms are extended, hold them in front of you at
shoulder width. Do 10 reps without rest.
Push-ups. Push-ups are an excellent exercise for a
strong chest and upper body that you can do anywhere,
anytime. Doing push ups trains your shoulders, triceps and
pectoral muscles (your chest muscles). How to do it: get in
a plank position and create a straight line from shoulders to
hips to ankles. Place your arms a bit wider than your
shoulders and lower your body toward the ground. Do it
slowly, no drooping. Slowly press back up to the first
(plank) position. Do 10 reps and go to the next exercise.
If you haven’t done push ups before or don’t have enough
strength to do this, try to push up from a bench or a table,
keeping your body in a straight line, from head to feet.
Don’t forget to contract your abs. Do 10 push-ups.
Push-up variations. Bored doing classic push-ups?
Try single-leg push-ups, lifting one leg 10 times, and then
switch legs. This type of push-ups will intensify work on
upper body and core. Also, try push-ups with your feet
elevated on a bench or a box (use your imagination).
Chest passes with a medicine ball. Take a medicine ball,
lie on the floor, face-up, bend your knees. Place a
medicine ball on your chest. Contract your abs, press your
lower back into the floor. Now throw the ball up as high as
you can. Try to catch it with straight arms and lower it to
your chest. Repeat the exercise. The main thing here is to
do it as quickly as possible.
Plank walk. Yes, our favorite plank exercise can help you
lift your breasts too. And this one is even more fun than the
classic one. Start with a simple push-up plank position,
raise your right hand and left foot and step both to the
right. Then move your right foot and left hand to the right
(beneath your right shoulder). Now reverse. There is
nothing complicated, just remember: you should move the
opposite arm and foot in the same direction. Take 2 steps in
one direction – this will be 1 rep. Do 10 reps.
Plank with arm reaches. Start in a push-up plank
position, contract your abs and stretch your left arm in front
of you as much as you can, fingers should be outstretched.
Place it back on the floor and do the same thing with the
right arm. Now put it back. This will be 1 rep.
Dumbbells around the world. This exercise sounds funny
but it is very effective. You can do it both standing and lying
on a bench. Get a set of dumbbells and hold them next to
your thighs. Now rotate them over your head creating a
semi-circle. Return to the first position, do as many
repeats as you can.
