<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Reigning world footballer of the year, Cristiano Ronaldo, has the most admirers (and critics) in the world as the Real Madrid star boasts 31.6million followers.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He’s not-so-closely followed by former Real and AC Milan player Kaka, who has 21.5m.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Football dominates the top 10, but there are places for basketball, too.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Cleveland Cavaliers’ LeBron James, formerly of Miami Heat, and Oklahoma City Thunder’s Kevin Durant have 16.6m and 8.7m respectively.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In terms of the United Kingdom, though, Wayne Rooney is by far the most popular sportsman.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The United and England striker boasts 10.2m ahead of Rio Ferdinand, Gareth Bale and Scottish tennis star Andy Murray.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But the most retweeted sporting celebrity of the summer was none other than Mario Balotelli.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Liverpool striker posted his demands during the 2014 World Cup if his Italy side was to do England a favour and beat Costa Rica...</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“If we beat Costa Rica I want a kiss, obviously on the cheek, from the UK Queen,” Balotelli wrote.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Costa Ricans won 1-0, England went home, and, despite getting more than 172,000 retweets, Balotelli’s wish never came true.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Louis van Gaal might have inherited a side that had temporarily fallen off its perch following the exit of Sir Alex Ferguson, but the Red Devils are proving more popular than ever on social media.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
According to <i>Daily Mail</i> of UK, new data released shows United was mentioned more times than any other club - beating Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea and neighbours City respectively to the Twitter title.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
City won’t be too keen at not making the top four, however, as they just pip Newcastle to fifth.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Sadly for Burnley, however, it is rock bottom, joined by Hull and Swansea in the relegation places.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But it only gets better for United when it comes to the most followed players, too.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>MY REMARKS:</b> <i>Man U fans' heads go done dey swell now, abi? Chai! You don't even know whether the mentions are for good or for bad. Anyway, mention nah mention whether na for bad or for good. Congrats!</i></div>

Nigerian 'Toilet Roll' Seller Returns €16,000 Found In Briefcase In Spain

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXjpU2qTSVagTdDDVFgKPaMu2ec6qtSYGOHONYs5d9fGggbtzbI-lC1eQoeFMyPFVAgW5c1RaKgWM7OiQTjYB1F1jxj5wCmatEslq45ZM28KeIJP9_iPZ9QUe7ldbAe00F3TlzTG4hSC0/s1600/tissue-paper.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXjpU2qTSVagTdDDVFgKPaMu2ec6qtSYGOHONYs5d9fGggbtzbI-lC1eQoeFMyPFVAgW5c1RaKgWM7OiQTjYB1F1jxj5wCmatEslq45ZM28KeIJP9_iPZ9QUe7ldbAe00F3TlzTG4hSC0/s1600/tissue-paper.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A 35-year old Nigerian tissue paper (or toilet roll as I know it) seller has been praised by the Spanish media for returning €16,000 (₦3,586,968) he found in a briefcase that fell from a car.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The man, known as Peter Angelina, who is known by Pedro works as a tissue paper seller at a traffic light junction at the corner of Calle Juan Diaz de Solis and Ruben Dario in Seville, Spain, was selling his wares on Dec. 3 when he noticed a small briefcase left on the roof of a car.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The briefcase fell off the car and Peter chased after the car to return the money but he failed to get the attention of the driver.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He then took the briefcase to the police station near the junction.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When police opened the briefcase they found €3,150 in cash and six cheques with a combined value of €13,000 as well as some documents and a mobile telephone.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Peter had left Lagos to London where he lived for two years before going to Spain.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Police then tracked down the owner of the money who then rewarded Peter with €100 (₦22,416).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Peter told the local media: “People say I could have kept the money and then thrown the briefcase away but I am not like that, and God wouldn’t have liked that. I am not crazy, I am a good man”.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Peter is a doctor but can’t practice his medicine in Spain due to his diploma from Lagos University not being recognised in Spain.<br />
<br />
<b>MY REMARKS:</b> <i>Abeg, abeg make una leave story. This man didn't know there was money in the briefcase. If he knew, it would have been a different story. E dey look for money come meet honor for road...Wetin e find go Sokoto come show up for im sokoto mouth. How else does he want God to bless him. Please, stop disturbing God oooo because HE has already answered your prayer but na you no click.</i></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-size: x-small;">By <b>Olakunle Taiwo</b>, Nigerian Tribune</span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Musician, Ada Okori, also known as <i>Imelda J</i>, is one of the nominees for the next <i>Headies Award</i>, as the Rookie of the Year. The pop singer, in this interview, speaks on her relationship with Governor Gabriel Suswam of Benue State, her upbringing and her career. Excerpts:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>How was growing up like?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I come from a humble background and a Christian home. But, I enjoyed my growing up as a child. I went to one of the best nursery schools around and all the things that I needed were there for me. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In fact, I skipped primary one and everything was just moving very fast for me because I wanted to just be in the front. I don’t know why. Most importantly, I got all the training and discipline I needed while growing up and even till now, there are things I can’t just do.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>How did you start music?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Should I say I grew up doing music? Unlike some artistes who say they joined a band at a particular time, mine was not like that. My mum sings and dances, so while I was growing up, she saw music in me and noticed that I was going to go her away. Seeing that, she gave me the encouragement that I needed; so I grew up with music.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Why won’t you forget your mum quickly?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I won’t because she gave support to my dream and career despite the fact that she is a medical doctor.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>You haven’t said anything about your dad…</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
My dad too gave me his support. In fact, the whole family has been there for me. And for that I will remain grateful to them.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>How have you been coping?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Like every other artiste, it has not been easy, but the passion definitely keeps me going.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>If not music, what would it be?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I would have become a medical doctor.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>How?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I was actually in my 200 level when the admission came to study Medicine, but then I was so deep in music. So, if I had gone for Medicine and left music, it would mean that my musical career had gone.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Now that you have ended up in the music industry, how do you see the competition?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When I first came in, I went through a lot because I was a female. Initially, I came to Lagos without the knowledge of my parents just to see how music works. But sincerely, it has been very tasking; you have to be in the studio and at the same time and thinking of another thing. Even, the mosquitoes in the studio were also frustrating; it was a new life entirely though. Being a girl, people were discouraging me, asking how would I survive? Where are your parents? Even now, things are still tough despite the fact that you have the money to push your songs. Because some music promoters are full of deceit and can run away with any amount you give to them for promotion. Another challenge was that people may try to take advantage of you by asking for stupid things.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>What stupid things?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
You know now, as usual. Even, if you have the money, people still want to take advantage of you.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Who do you look up to in the Nigerian music industry?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A lot of them because we have a good number of artistes in the industry at the moment. But, one person that is very versatile, although it’s funny, that I have celebrity crush for is D’banj. Oh my God! And also 2 face.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Do you have any form of relationship with any of them?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Except for 2face, we are from the same place, but for the rest, not yet.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>What challenges are you facing as an artiste?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Going to the studio and coming back could really be a problem. Initially, I thought money could be the problem, but I later got to realise that everything is not money. You just have to think right and stay focused. Presently, my hands are full and don’t even know where to start. Now, I have to drop some for others. Basically, the challenges are everyday challenges but we just have to pray to God for the strength to keep going.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Do you think anything is hindering the growth of the industry?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Yes. One is piracy and the other lack of structure.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>How do you mean?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The government is not there yet in terms of support. We don’t seem to have a home in the music industry. For instance, I can’t say I am going to any professional body in case I have a problem. And if the government is going to do anything for artistes, who is going to represent us? We don’t have that structure.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>What is your relationship with the governor of Benue State, Gabriel Suswam?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
(Laughs). Well, I look up to him as a father. He has been very supportive to entertainment generally in the state and definitely you should know I should have a good relationship with him because he has been very supportive to me and my career, and like other artistes too in the state. Before he came, entertainment was on a lowkey, but since he came many shows have been coming up in the state. He opened way for artistes to have access to him. So, he is like a father to all of us in the state.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Because, you are much closer to him than other artistes in the state, some are  curious…</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
No one has seen me close to any guy, but when they eventually see you with one, they believe a kind of relationship is going on.  And for Christ sake, he is not the only one I am close to in the state. I am close to big personalities, especially politicians. I am blessed in such a way that when I walk into any place and there are elders there, they are the first to get close to me. Like Bongo Siko is my very good friend and he is an elderly person, so why are people not talking about him? He is someone I work up to anytime for advice.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I think in the governor’s case, a verse in the scripture says that your talent shall open ways for you before kings. So, it is up to you to know what you have and how you place. But in my own case, it’s absurd because I am close to the governor and top dignitaries in Benue, then  they say  I may be having an affair with them. I think it is funny. But when you are a female artiste, people tend to attach so many things to your life. Sincerely, there is nothing other than he is a father to me and all other artistes in the state.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>How are you affecting the life of your fans positively?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Definitely with good messages.  I have always made sure that I am involved in happenings in the society. I did a song with Miko Kri which preaches unity and also did one for the Chibok girls.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>So, what should your fans be expecting next?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
They should expect a lot from me. By the grace of God, my album will be coming out next year. And I am going to be dropping two kinds of album.  </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So, I intend going to separate my album to portray cool songs for the young and matured minds and then the Nigerian style that will bring my fans together.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<b>MY REMARKS:</b> <i>Does anyone expect this Imelda girl to confirm the rumour? Anyway, we don hear you ooo. But if na as we dey hear am, body go tell you later. Final word!</i><br />

Ex-Militant Leader, Tompolo Buys Warships, Combat Boats

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In a shocking move, the Norwegian government has sold a fleet of its decommissioned, but still sophisticated, battleships and combat boats to a former Niger Delta militant leader, Government Ekpemupolo, who for years led a devastating insurgency against the Nigerian government in the oil-rich region, a Norwegian newspaper reported Saturday.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As a leader of the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta, Mr. Ekpemupolo, well known as Tompolo, confronted the Nigerian military, killing many and disrupting oil and gas production.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
An amnesty deal announced by the Nigerian government, by former President Umaru Yar’adua, in 2009, ended the fighting.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Tompolo has since emerged a close ally of President Goodluck Jonathan’s government, winning lucrative government contracts and becoming very rich.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But after giving up fighting, surrendering his arms, and leading his men to hand over their weapons, <i><b>Dagbladet</b></i>, the Norwegian newspaper, said Tompolo in 2012 received at least six decommissioned Norwegian battleships.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Among them were six fast-speed Hauk-class guided missile boats, now re-armed with new weapons.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The most recent hardware, according to the report, is the KNM Horten, a fast-attack craft now allegedly used for anti-piracy patrol in the Nigerian waters.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The report said the deal was implemented through a shell maritime Security Company based in the United Kingdom, CAS Global.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
CAS Global was used to evade a requirement by Norway that arms dealers obtain export license from their country’s foreign affairs ministry, the report adds.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
CAS Global has such licence.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The company, which has an office in Nigeria, could not be reached on Saturday. Calls to its general manager, were unsuccessful.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
On its website, the company says, among other functions, that it is a risk management company with an international reach.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“We have significant skill sets and personnel in two key operational disciplines.  Within the Maritime Industry, we specialise in offshore support vessels & personnel, mainly, but not exclusively, for oil and gas multinationals.  We also work with multi-national shipping companies and consortiums to provide vessel escort services in high risk areas,” the company says.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Mr. Ekpemupolo runs Global West Vessel Service, which handles maritime security issues for the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency, NIMASA.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The maritime security issues are essentially anti-piracy, although Tompolo’s firm itself is also accused of piracy.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The newspaper’s report that Norway sold such military hardware to an individual with a history of violence, has angered the country’s lawmakers who are pressing for explanations.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
According to <i>Dagbladet</i>, the government has defended the transaction.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The head of communications at the Norwegian State Department Frode Andersen, was quoted by the paper as saying that “As far as we can see, the export of KNM Horten has followed correct procedure and terms of export to Great Britain. The re-export from Great Britain to Nigeria is a question to be handled solely by British export control authorities.”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Nigerian military could not be reached for comments too.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Since the Niger Delta militancy era  ended in 2009, Mr. Ekpemupolo hit the headlines again recently after allegedly ordering the arrest and beating of journalists in Delta State.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Your Excellency, let me start by congratulating you on a keenly contested Presidential Primary of your party APC which you won resoundingly. Even if I’m not a member of your party, I’m a recent convert to <i><b>Buharism</b></i>, as previously explained elsewhere, and I believe every member of the opposition must join forces to work for your victory in 2015. It is for this reason and purpose that I wish to give you a few words of advice and encouragement as one of your humble disciples. I’ve come to realise that many leaders often fail because most of their followers are usually too timid or terribly selfish that they can’t tell them the truth. It is one of the reasons I’ve refused to join any of the mainstream parties in which I may not be able to express myself freely. I assure you sir, that I seek nothing but the good of our dear beloved country in return for my modest support.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Please, permit me to say, categorically, that no man can claim glory for your victory. The only one to thank is your God who gave you the uncommon attributes of integrity, modesty and tenacity. I’m aware that success has too many family members but you must be very careful to know your true blood relations. I can imagine the pressure you must be getting from every direction at this great moment in a nation of amazing politicians who already see your likely chances at the polls. It is our standard practice in Nigeria but you must be careful not to waste this incredible momentum.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I’ve been monitoring all the hullaballoo since you became victorious. I plead with you and your party operatives to act fact and hit the ground running. Your campaign must start urgently because there are so many bridges to cross. I have no doubt in my mind that the propaganda of your opponent is evaporating so rapidly and you’ve obviously ignited a passion in our youths who seemed to have finally connected to your message of change and hope. The last time I witnessed such an upsurge of emotion and excitement was in 1993 when Chief Moshood Abiola emerged the Presidential flag-bearer of SDP in Jos. Trust me, you gave us a fresh hope two days ago.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As a media man, I’m always wary of wasting moments of glory. You cannot imagine how we kept sleepless nights because of you. Ordinary Nigerians like me kept faith with and vigil for you. I won’t be surprised if some even fasted. It was that serious. I saw Christians and Muslims pray together. It was surreal and magical to say the least. We all waited with bated breath for the results. When finally it was time to count the ballot, most of us were in suspense. We counted every vote along with Senator Babafemi Ojudu and company. And we were very impressed with the ability of the Convention committee led by Dr Kayode Fayemi, who taught INEC how to run a good election. Our joy knew no bounds as you came out victorious.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Sir, I wish to assure you that the outcome of that keenly contested election was not a fluke. You all worked hard and made your party and our country proud. We were happy to see a Nigerian politician concede defeat even as votes were still being counted. Alhaji Atiku Abubakar’s tweet was a masterstroke. It showed clearly that Democracy has germinated in our clime and we can begin to look forward for bountiful harvests in the not too distant future. We were impressed with the collective performances of Governor Rabiu Kwankwaso, Govenor Rochas Okorocha and our Brother Publisher, Sam Nda-Isiah. I pray this team spirit holds to the end. It is an attitude to encourage because it demonstrates the preparedness of those who are serious about the 2015 elections. Even the ambience surrounding the event venue was just too sweet.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
My honest and humble suggestion is that you must do what you’ve promised to do, carry your party along with you and you will find the task ahead a LOT easier.  You’ve criss-crossed the length and breadth of Nigeria in the past bonding with your party members and fellow Nigerians. This is your fourth attempt and hopefully the last shot at returning to finish the job which you were wickedly prevented from finishing in 1985. In your past outings, you tried all you could but got frustrated all the way by forces beyond your control. Never mind, the time has come for you to reap the rewards of that Odysseus journey.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In your previous outings, Sir, you must have suffered a huge trauma. You were called many unprintable names because of your bluntness and inability to pretend and lie about your faith and beliefs. The one ugly label that stuck to you like a leech is that of being an Islamic fundamentalist.  Even recently, you were subliminally accused of being the prime promoter of the much-dreaded Boko Haram. But no one had the guts to frontally arrest you and prosecute you for crimes against your country and humanity. I still wonder till this day how you managed to bear all the insults and assaults against you with such unusual equanimity.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In the process of trying to prove your innocence, you went to great lengths and chose all manner of characters as your running-mates. I remember you chose a prominent and highly-cerebral Igbo Chief, Dr Chuba Okadigbo, as your Vice Presidential candidate, but that was not good enough for our people to vote for you. Instead, you were described as an incurable irredentist. Most recently, and probably out of desperation to shed off the toga of religious bigotry, you chose the fiery preacher, Pastor Tunde Bakare of The Latter Rain Assembly, as your soul-mate, but you were still not able to wash off your hands clean like Pontius Pilate. I must confess that your skin must be tougher than that of a porcupine. If there is one lesson we must all learn from you, it is that we must never give up in the face of daunting challenges. You are truly resilient and indomitable.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
My dream is to see your party come together to form a kind of shadow cabinet as soon as possible.  This will also show your teeming supporters how committed you are.  The composition of your squad will reveal the kind of personalities that will eventually form your dream team in Government. From now on members of that crew will be formulating policies and commenting on issues of national economic and social importance and showing Nigerians what they should come to expect from May 29 2015.  I’ve always been an advocate of such because it additionally helps you to gather a combined synergy. Instead of relying on your personal popularity, it would be possible to tap into the energy of other members and millions of youths who are happy to volunteer for your campaign. For the first time since you started contesting in 2003, you have a nationwide spread of supporters behind you. It is almost supernatural that the Governors in your party control the chunkiest parts in Nigeria. But your biggest assets are the masses who believe in you. They must never be taken for granted because they are the voice of God.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If the APC can sustain the classy craftsmanship we saw at the Lagos Convention, I’ve no doubt that your campaign would catch the attention of most Nigerians everywhere and change the lacklustre way of organising political rallies. Your campaign must be issue based. I loved your letter to the APC Delegates. It was so soul-lifting that it went viral. It would be nice to write from time to time to Nigerians intimating them on how you plan to tackle the many problems afflicting our country. In addition you must not fear to regularly interact with Nigerians face to face when matters of national importance arise.  It is a poor leader who leaves such matters to publicists and spokesperson.  It reveals that they are insecure and unsure of themselves.  More importantly, it displays a significant disconnect between the leader and his constituents as well as a distinct lack of compassion. We have suffered too many unfulfilled promises and too many shocking denials of matters which critically affect our people.  The people have become virtually paranoid of politicians and their sugar-coated and phantasmagorical lies.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
There are too many brilliant Nigerians across the world desperate to see a better Nigeria before they die. They will support you unconditionally once they key into your dream for the country. The situation of the country is so bad that everyone is expecting a miracle from God. This is the time to prove that Nigeria is not a cursed country but a truly blessed race. I’m already impressed with the calibre of people I see around you and I’m persuaded they are capable of not only helping you to win the election but also to run an effective government.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I wish you the best of luck Sir.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>Momodu also has a few words for President Goodluck Jonathan and his handlers. Read on, please.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>LET THE RACE BEGIN MR PRESIDENT</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I have no personal animosity against you, Mr President. As a matter of fact, I think you have been just unfortunate to have assumed power at a most terrible period in the history of our country. I cannot write you off in the next Presidential contest. You are the incumbent with all the Federal might at your disposal. But it is going to be the biggest battle that you, PDP and indeed the conservatives have ever fought since coming to power in 1999.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If you, as the President fail in your second term bid, it would be due to several reasons. The first is that PDP has not lived up to its billing despite all the vast resources at its disposal. The money spent since then would have turned a more prudent country into a paradise on earth. But in our own case, the more you look, the less you see. Education has collapsed totally. Infrastructural decay is abysmal. Insecurity is atrocious. Corruption has shot through the roof. It is a long tale of woes.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Even those much vaunted areas that your Government promotes in our media are now being shown to be nothing more than propaganda stunts. We still have no power despite all the amounts that have been burnt in the purported attempt to provide light for our people. Our economy is in shambles.   Our international economists have totally lost the grip.  I still cannot understand how the price of crude has fallen to the level that it has and yet the domestic price of petrol and petroleum products has not fallen a kobo.  It is sacrilegious.  The one thing that is clear is that there is now no subsidy of any description so the so-called deficits in the budget should not be there.  Our voodoo economists however will tell us the contrary.  Ask them to tell you the truth because the die is cast.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The major challenge is that your supporters are also fond of threatening hell-fire against your opponents instead of trying to sell your best attributes. I can see this strategy failing already. Please, don’t deviate from your belief that the blood of Nigerians is not worth dropping for politics. Be a man of peace and not a man of war. God has been too kind to you. If He wishes, he may still retain you in power.</div>

[18+ Only]: Leaked! Nigerian Bank Manager's X-Rated Photos To Secret Lover

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
She is a manager in one of the financial institutions. According to gist, she had a relationship with one of her male staff and started another one with another male staff. The first guy got to know and after a brief quarrel, they separated and he decided to expose her. The pics you will be seeing shortly are the result of their fight.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I must say that I am first of all shocked to the marrows that a married woman and career lady will be so careless as to send nude pictures of herself to her lover, for whatever reason, it is the height of indiscretion and infidelity.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
What drives married couples to become unfaithful in their relationship? Moreso, if you look at the pictures closely, you will notice that the background looks like that of an office. If the woman is eventually identified, what becomes of her job? Her reputation? Forget about her marriage- it’s past tense except her husband is from Mars.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
   </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Apparently, this is a case of a love tale gone sour. The details are sketchy as to who released the photos but it certainly is not the woman at the centre of the storm which leaves her alleged lover as suspect. There is no justification for any man no matter the offence to release nude photos of his erstwhile lover or girlfriend to the general public. She sent it to you in confidence and with the belief that it is meant <i>For Your Eyes</i> only. If you have such photos in your possession, soft or hard copy after break-up, why not permanently delete or shred it instead of playing childish and stupid by releasing it online or elsewhere? What if that were your mother, sister or niece?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ladies, beware! Stop sending nude pictures of yourself to your boyfriend, lover or even keeping same on your phone or computer because you never know who might see it and decide to ‘expose’ or blackmail you at the slightest opportunity. A word they say, is sufficient for the wise.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><i><br /></i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Governor Rabiu Kwankwaso of Kano State has said he might be heading to the Senate after failing to clinch the All Progressives Congress, APC’s presidential ticket Thursday.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Mr. Kwankwaso lost the party’s primaries to former head of state, Muhammadu Buhari, despite a surprisingly impressive performance that saw him receive more party votes than former Vice President Atiku Abubakar.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The governor said he might consider calls from his supporters to bid for a seat in the Senate in 2015. If he so decides, it would be after consultations, Mr. Kwankwaso said.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“I will consult with my people, friends and political associate on my future politically. And you should know that my being in the Senate will help in no small measure in tackling those talkative who have nothing to offer for the unity of the Country,” the governor said.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The governor said his immediate concern is to deliver Kano the APC and to ensure PDP loses in the state “hands down”.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“I’m back to the ground to ensure that PDP defeated in this state and the country. Now I will be fully on the ground to continue with what I am doing for the development of the state,” Mr. Kwankwaso told reporters in his office Friday. “I will make sure that PDP loses in Kano and I will deliver 100% victory in the state to the APC because it’s the party that everyone is supporting across the country.”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Mr. Kwankwaso said he was satisfied that Mr. Buhari won the APC ticket for February’s presidential election.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“Whoever voted for Buhari in the just concluded presidential primary is just like he voted me. I and Buhari are the same and I believe that he will change this country to better from this mess caused by the PDP,” he said.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“I would like to use this opportunity and congratulate General Muhammadu Buhari for his victory; he is an experienced person who will better the lives of people and bring an end to this mess that is going on in the country.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“I want to say that Buhari with his military background will try his best to ensure that the security challenges facing this country will be overcome. Buhari is the best person to handle this country at this crucial time”.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“Buhari is a full-fledged politician. He worked like any other politician in this country and he earned the ticket by his commitment. He is a polished and experienced politician. We must rally round our support and cooperation towards his victory,” the governor said.</div>

Lagos Guber Primaries: Obanikoro Drags PDP To Court

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Erstwhile ‎Minister of State for Defence, Senator Musiliu Obanikoro, yesterday dragged the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) before a Federal High court in Abuja over the controversial conduct of the Lagos State governorship primary which saw Mr. Jimi Agbaje emerge as the winner.</b><br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Obanikoro said the move had become imperative as the PDP had failed to act on his petition in which he complained about the anomalies of the primary.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Obanikoro said this yesterday at a press conference held at campaign office in Lagos.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
‎The former minister said he could not comprehend how the number of accredited delegates (806) could exceed the number of votes (863).<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
According to him, the 48 hours timeline stipulated by the PDP Electoral Guideline to address the appeal had elapsed without a response from the party.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He said in the light of the development, only the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and a court could compel the party to conduct a fresh primary.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
His words: “We must stand by the truth and the truth is that the election of Monday must be cancelled and repeated. We turned in our petition on Tuesday thinking that yesterday (Thursday) the party would reply according to its guidelines but they have not responded as we speak.”<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Continuing, Obanikoro said “when I noticed that they did not respond, we went to a Federal High court and sued the party.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I stand for a greater Lagos and anything that will derail that journey will be fought with every drop of our blood.”<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He, however, took a swipe at Chief Bode George and Senator Adeseye Ogunlewe,  who he accused of manipulating the process to favour Jimi Agbaje.<br />
