<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Some months back, <i>Nollywood</i> actress, Fathia Balogun, released a statement which stated that the ex-wife of popular actor, Saidi Balogun, has finally dropped the actor’s name and would now be addressed as Fathia Williams.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Saidi Balogun and Fathia were married for more than ten years with two children before the couple decided to part ways with neither party speaking on what was responsible for the separation. They both insisted that they have not divorced but only separated.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
   </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The couple had since moved on with their lives after the supposed separation, with Saidi Balogun rumoured to have remarried secretly, while Fathia on the other hand is yet to remarry and was said to have adopted Williams due to a court injunction.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Saidi had approached a court in Lagos to stop Fathia from answering Balogun since they are no longer married couple.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Fathia, in her usual controversial style, caused a stir in Ibadan last week, during the national election of newly floated Theatre body, <i>Theatre Arts and Movie Practitioners Association of Nigeria</i>, (TAMPAN), when she threatened to attack a journalist, who attempted to snap her her while she was eating when the election was on.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A hot argument ensued between Fathia and the photographer, with Fathia saying "If I catch you snapping me because I am eating amala and ewedu, I will break your camera and destroy it", she threatened the photographer.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The actress emerged TAMPAN’s Social Director and was presented a certificate of return, with her name boldly written as Fathia Balogun as against Williams, which she has been answering before then.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
   </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When asked why Williams was not written on her certificate, Fathia simply said: "Why do you want to know that? I think the prerogative to use whatever name I choose is mine and not yours. Today is about TAMPAN election, not Fathia or Balogun nor Williams," she said.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Ahead of the 2015 general elections, Vice President Mohammed Namadi Sambo has told the Independent National Electoral Commission that his Bachelors and Masters degrees certificates in Architecture from the Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, have been consumed by fire.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Sambo, who is the Vice Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, made the declaration in the documents he filed with INEC and displayed on the commission’s office in Abuja although the details of the fire that consumed the certificates were not given.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Sambo’s papers were received and stamped in INEC headquarters between December 10 and 18, 2014.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The VP’s declaration was validated by two letters from the ABU, a copy of which was obtained by <b><a href="http://www.punchng.com/news/my-certificates-consumed-by-fire-sambo-tells-inec/">The PUNCH</a></b> on Sunday.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The first letter, signed by one Alhassan Garba for the institution’s registrar under the title, “To Whom it may Concern: Mohammed Namani Sambo,” read:</div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: justify;">
"I certify that the above-named person having completed an approved course of study and passed the prescribed examinations was awarded the Bachelor of Science (Architecture) with Second Class Honours (Lower Division) in 1976 by the Senate of this University. His original certificate got burnt. Please treat his case in view of this certification. Thank you."</blockquote>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The second letter, also signed by Garba for the ABU registrar, read, </div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: justify;">
“I certify that the above-named person having completed an approved course of study and passed the prescribed examinations was awarded the Master of Science (Architecture) on May 25, 1978 by the Senate of this University. His original certificate got burnt. Please treat his case in view of this certification. Thank you.”</blockquote>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Meanwhile, indications have emerged that only 13 political parties would field presidential candidates in the 2015 elections.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The parties and their candidates are the People Democratic Party, Dr. Goodluck Jonathan; the All Progressives Congress, Maj.-Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.); Action Alliance, Tunde Anifowose-Kelani; Kowa Party, Prof. Oluremi Sonaiya; United Progressives Party; Chief Chekwas Okorie; and National Conscience Party, Chief Martin Onovo.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>No fewer than eight members of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in the Ogun State House of Assembly are set to leave the party following the controversies trailing the primaries to various elective positions in the party ahead of the 2015 general elections.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The eight lawmakers are said to be leaving the party to protest against the purported authentic list of candidates for the 2015 polls released by the party in the state.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
According to competent sources among the lawmakers who had resolved to dump the PDP were a former Deputy Speaker of the House, and another two-term member of the Assembly.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><a href="http://www.vanguardngr.com/2014/12/8-ogun-pdp-house-members-set-defect/">Vanguard</a></b> reports that one of the aggrieved lawmakers in the Assembly, who spoke on the condition of anonymity wondered why the National Working Committee of the party would "hand over the fate of tens of aspirants in the party to one man" to draw up the list of candidates.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The lawmaker, who was one of those who had earlier defected with former Governor Gbenga Daniel from the Labour Party to the PDP about two months ago, said: “They called off the primaries in the state on the pretext that the national body would meet and communicate to the aspirants on the way forward.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"We were still expecting this one to be done when they said three leaders of the party in the state - JMK (a former Minister of Industries, Chief Jubril Martins Kuye); OGD (former Governor Gbenga Daniel); and Buruji Kashamu (Chairman, Membership and Mobilisation Committee of the PDP in the South West) - were asked to meet in Abuja to draw up a list of candidates at all levels including those who contested and those who did not.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"From the list they had submitted to the INEC, only Kashamu drew up the list. The State Chairman of the party (Chief Bayo Dayo) relied on Kashamu’s wide connections in Abuja to conduct the governorship primary on December 8, despite a directive from the NWC, stopping the primary."</div>

Jonathan Is Buhari's De Facto Campaign Manager - S/East APC

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>The South East chapter of the All Progressives Congress, APC, has said the party’s presidential candidate, Muhammadu Buhari, has greater chances of winning the February election because of the alleged poor performance of President Goodluck Jonathan.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The spokesperson of the chapter, Osita Okechukwu, who stated this while addressing members in Enugu on Friday, said the president is the '<i>de facto</i> campaign manager' of his APC counterpart since he has nothing to show to Nigeria what he did for them in the last four years.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Mr. Okechukwu explained that the election of Mr. Buhari, who he said had 60 per cent chance in the poll, had become imperative because Mr. Jonathan specifically failed woefully to provide welfare and security to Nigerian citizens, in spite of the unprecedented resources at his disposal.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"President Jonathan lacks neither the political will to stem corruption or to fight Boko Haram; that’s the GMB Appeal, even from unlikely quarters like South-South and South East," Mr. Okechukwu said.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"Nigerians want positive change. Can a president who failed to utilise good oil revenue regime, succeed under oil glut regime? No! No!! No!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"It is my candid view that our dear president wasted golden opportunity by failing woefully to fulfil the promises he made four years ago."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The spokesperson recounted that on May 13, 2010, Mr. Jonathan awarded $23 billion contract for the construction of three Greenfield Refineries in Bayelsa, Lagos and Kogi States, but that five years after the "money had grown wings and the refineries dead on arrival."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He listed the implications of the failure to install the refineries to include the squandering of over ₦2 trillion annually in the importation of refined petroleum products; devaluation of the naira and economic downturn; gross unemployment; the return of the country to debt trap; unprecedented oil theft; and posting of phantom economic growth in the midst of widespread poverty.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He said, "My brothers and sisters, you must agree with [me] that if Mr. President, a young man with PhD had performed; automatically Nigerians from all shades of opinion will not today be clamouring to vote for an old GMB for president, that’s why President Jonathan is his Campaign Chief."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Mr. Okechukwu thanked supporters from the South East for being the highest donors to the Buhari Support Fund, which has so far garnered over ₦54 million.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"I commend my people for being a critical chain in the Buhari-Bandwagon-Vehicle for Salvation, so that tomorrow nobody can marginalize <i>Ndigbo</i>," he said.</div>

<b>Sunday's action in football's Premier League failed to match the Boxing Day goal-fest but that didn't mean there was a shortage of drama.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Most of it took place in Manchester, with surging defending champion <b>Manchester City</b> coming unstuck against relegation threatened <b>Burnley</b>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Cruising with a 2-0 lead after 35 minutes, City relinquished two goals in the second half to only settle for a point. Out went its nine-match winning streak.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The second-half lapse meant City failed to close the gap to one point on leader Chelsea, which had earlier drawn 10-man Southampton 1-1. The margin remains three points.</div>

Manuel Pellegrini's men - despite missing strikers Sergio Aguero and Edin Dzeko - netted six goals in their last two matches and when the in-form David Silva and holding midfielder Fernandinho found the back of the net within 33 minutes, it appeared as if a landslide win was on the cards.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But City relaxed and plucky Burnley - which has improved in the past two months - pounced.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
George Boyd began the comeback in the 47th minute before Ashley Barnes leveled past Joe Hart in the 81st.</div>

After United and<b> Tottenham</b> played to a 0-0 draw in London, he described the football as ugly.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

Elsewhere, <b>Arsenal</b> rose into a tie on points with <b>Southampton</b> after beating <b>West Ham</b> 2-1 on the road; <b>Stoke</b> heaped more pressure on Alan Irvine by topping <b>West Bromwich Albion</b> 2-0; and draw specialist <b>Sunderland</b> couldn't register a winner against <b>Aston Villa</b> even though it played most of the second half with an extra man.

<b>Crystal Palace</b>, which sacked Neil Warnock on Saturday, claimed a point after holding <b>QPR</b> to a 0-0 result. QPR - owned by Air Asia's Tony Fernandes - held a 5-2-2 record at home while losing all nine of its road games.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>When this story first broke, we thought it was a hoax or some satire site running their games. Turns out this is a real case in the State of California and we are STUNNED, like the rest of the country.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
According to <b><a href="http://urbanintellectuals.com/2014/11/18/california-rapper-no-criminal-record-sentenced-to-life-in-prison-for-his-album/">Urban Intellectuals</a></b>,<b> Brandon Duncan</b>, aka <b>Tiny Doo</b>, lyrics cover the subjects most rap music cover these days: gangs, money, sex, and violence. Featuring duets with stars like Lil’ Wayne, he has a decent following in his area and looking to build upon that in the future. With songs on his album like <i>“No Safety”</i>, his content is what you would expect out of the typical, modern day rapper.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
However, Duncan was charged with attempted murder charges in court along with 14 other people. The charges are gang conspiracy in the murder of 9 people since April 2013.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As bizarre as it seems, the prosecutors are using a little known state law that was voted into effect in 2000 by the general public. The law states <i>gang members can be prosecuted if they benefit from crimes committed by other gang members</i>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Keep in mind, Duncan hasn’t been charged with any crimes before, nor directly involved in any of the killings, the prosecutors argue he has benefited from the murders allowing him to sell more albums.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"We're not just talking about a CD of anything, of love songs. We're talking about a CD (cover) … there is a revolver with bullets," said Deputy District Attorney Anthony Campagna.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Duncan's lawyer calls these charges a reach.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"It’s shocking. He has no criminal record. Nothing in his lyrics say go out and commit a crime. Nothing in his lyrics reference these shootings, yet they are holding him liable for conspiracy. There are huge constitutional issues," said Brian Watkins, Duncan’s attorney.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
No matter what we think about Duncan’s music or the culture he lives in, to be charged with murder and be up for a life sentence in prison seems ridiculous. We wonder if <b>Martin Scoresese</b> or <b>Bratt Pitt </b>will be sentenced to life in prison for making violent movies that obviously benefit from the violence, drugs and crime?</div>

Nigerian Politics: Church, State And Mosque - By The Economist

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>IN NIGERIA’s commerical capital, Lagos, the candle-like minarets of the Central Mosque look out over streets and alleyways filled with a plethora of churches and cathedrals. Yet these two Abrahamic religions do not co-exist quite as peacefully in many other parts of Nigeria, which is about half Muslim and half Christian; bouts of violence have broken out periodically since the 1960s, mainly in the northern and central parts of the country, many of which are under Islamic law, or sharia (see map).</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
With elections scheduled for February 2015, there are growing concerns that these long-standing rivalries may be brought closer to the boil. On December 11th Nigeria’s main opposition party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), selected as its presidential candidate Muhammadu Buhari, a septuagenarian Muslim from the north. He will stand against the incumbent president, Goodluck Jonathan, a Christian southerner, just as he did in 2011. That campaign was among Nigeria’s bloodiest, with more than 800 people killed in sectarian fighting. Some worry that, with both parties playing up religion, there is now potential for even worse bloodshed.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Mr Buhari was the military ruler of Nigeria between 1983 and 1985 before being himself overthrown in a subsequent coup. He has a reputation for incorruptibility and firm discipline (during his time as military ruler, civil servants who arrived late for work were forced to do squat-jumps). However many Christians, who predominate in the south, view his brand of Islam as too strident for their liking.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Worries about the fair treatment of Christians have also been exacerbated by the situation in the northeast, where Boko Haram, a jihadist group, is trying to establish an Islamic state. Instability has killed more than 16,000 people. Many of the victims are Muslim, but the Islamists have also singled out Christians for murder or forced conversion to Islam.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"Bad governance, inefficiency and corruption have stirred up religion to the point that it becomes a defining identity," says Matthew Kukah, a respected public intellectual and Bishop of the Diocese of Sokoto in northern Nigeria. "The worry is whether [Buhari] has the capacity to rein in the excesses of his supporters, a good number of whom may not possess the reflex for showing tolerance."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Many Muslims, meanwhile, feel alienated by a president who has failed to narrow deep divides between the more prosperous south and impoverished north. He is also seen as partisan in representing a diverse nation, despite his appointment of a Muslim running mate. In October Mr Jonathan made a “private pilgrimage” to Jerusalem, where he was reported to have visited various Christian and Jewish holy sites but no Muslim ones. "Whether Goodluck likes to hear it or not, he is seen by most Muslim masses in Nigeria as the most pro-Christian president," Ahmad Gumi, a controversial Muslim cleric, wrote in an open letter earlier this year.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Mr Buhari had thought of choosing a fellow Muslim as his running mate. Instead he picked Yemi Osinbajo, a lawyer and a senior Pastor in the Redeemed Christian Church of God. Mr Buhari has avoided an obvious provocation to Christians. Pray that good sense continues to prevail.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Former football star, George Weah, has won a landslide victory in Liberia’s senate elections, in polls disrupted by the Ebola outbreak.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Mr. Weah got 78 per cent of the vote for the Montserrado county seat, which includes the capital Monrovia.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He beat Robert Sirleaf, the son of President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, who took nearly 11 per cent, the <b><span style="color: red;">BBC</span></b> reports.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Low turnout in the poll, which was first planned for October, was blamed on concerns about Ebola.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Strict health controls were in place to try to prevent the spread of the disease.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Those who came to polling stations had their temperature taken, were told to stand a metre (3ft) apart and wash their hands before and after voting.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Liberia has been one of the countries worst affected by Ebola, with almost 3,400 deaths, the United Nations said.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Other winners in the senate elections include Jewel Howard-Taylor, the ex-wife of the jailed former president, Charles Taylor, and the former rebel leader, Prince Johnson. Both retained their seats.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The National Elections Commission chairman, Jerome Korkoya, called the conclusion of the vote “the end of a crucial journey.”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Mr. Weah won the first round of the 2005 presidential election, losing the runoff to Ms Johnson-Sirleaf.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He is the only African to be named FIFA’s world player of the year, winning in 1995.</div>

Polygamist Gets Stuck On 3rd Wife During Sex

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>A 52-year-old polygamist who decided to celebrate Christmas with his family in Gokwe after having disappeared for three years, will live to regret having deserted his third wife in the first place after he got stuck on her while they were making love.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The incident which took place at Matanganyika Village shocked all and sundry, as ulunyoka - the "fencing" of one's wife - is usually done to punish men who bed married women.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A source close to the developments told <b><i>Sunday News</i></b> that the man, Mr Obert Mleya who originally is from Binga came for Christmas after living for almost three years in Harare.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"Mr Mleya opted to fulfil his third wife's conjugal rights but this backfired when he was stuck to her for the whole day. Both families were now trading insults with the man's family accusing the wife of being a prostitute yet the wife's family claimed that their daughter was no longer married," said the source.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"The matter had to be referred to Chief Njelele to intervene. The chief had to calm tempers and urged people to first resolve the matter at hand and later discuss their family issues. His (Chief Njelele) intervention worked because the man was unlocked."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Mr Mleya's third wife Siphiwe Ndlovu's brother, Robert, refused to comment on the matter but later said the issue was only meant to be discussed by family members and not the general public.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"I don't want to comment on that. If the matter happened, then where do you benefit? Some of these issues are meant to be discussed by family members," he said.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A Mr Mpofu, who reportedly "fenced" Siphiwe is said to have claimed that he had the right to do so as he had been taking care of her for the past three years. He said by "fencing" her, he was only protecting his "wife", which is common in the area.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"Stories travel fast but I am not shy to share the information with you because it passed," said Mr Mpofu, "the wife is mine and we have a kid together but what happened shocked me. We will sit down as the family and see what is the way forward."</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Chelsea</b> added three more points on Monday night in the win over <b>Stoke City</b> to stay top of the EPL over the Christmas break and Sir Alex says it’s a bit tardy and unfair that the Portuguese manager has got the looks, speaks five languages and wins without stress - something he thinks is rare for a manager who never really had a playing career.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<i>"He has got a determination, he wants to be a coach.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>"He never played the game, by the way - you tell me how many presidents would give a manager a job who has never played the game? None. But he has done it.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>"Then he goes and manages a small team in Portugal, then goes to Porto and wins the league, wins the UEFA Cup, wins the European Cup, goes to Chelsea and wins the league. Goes to Inter Milan.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<b>Seyi Shay can't get her hands off Wizkid in her new music video. Are they lovers or just friends?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Singer <b>Seyi Shay</b> seems to have gone all out in her new video <i>'Crazy'</i> featuring <b>Wizkid</b>. The music video directed by Meji Alabi features strong <i>cirque du soleil</i> elements, and a sexually explicit scene.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The brief scene has <b>Seyi Shay</b> grabbing <b>Wizkid</b>'s crotch. The XXX scene happens in the 2:15 mark of the video. There have been rumours that both acts are 'more than just friends'.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In the video there is also another scene where <b>Wizkid</b> is drumming on <b>Seyi Shay</b>'s backside as the female singer was grinding on him.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Well, there seems to be a lot of chemistry between both acts. Could it just be music or more?</div>

<i>The picture of the burnt carcass is the tragic remains left behind by the assassins who obviously took their time to set the body ablaze after killing him. Evidently, they shot him in the main clinic area and carried his body to the room in the back area where they left him face down.</i></div>

<i>Not done, they severed his hands and legs before proceeding to douse the body with petrol. The rest of the building on the inside was sprinkled with petrol before it was all set ablaze. It obviously was an inferno that raged leading the building to implode as the roof caved inward.  Interestingly, the neighbouring buildings were not affected. No doubt this was a most professional job that was obviously very carefully contracted and crafted.</i></div>

We are aware that this same MD has been a regular guest of the ICPC and very recently, EFCC was granted leave to arrest and prosecute this same man.</i></div>

<i>Some ill-informed commentators and reporters are hastily coming up with some spurious speculations over this tragedy.

For us in the family this even goes further to confirm the reality of a carefully scripted assassination plot with arrangements in place to deal with scenarios that may emerge afterwards. However, there is enough trace and evidence left in their trail to follow up on the source of this dastardly crime. After all, there is really no perfect crime!</i></div>

<b>Three brothers from Bulawayo, Zimbabwe's second largest city, reportedly went insane after they squandered money, stolen from a Nigerian man, which had been brought by their brother from South Africa.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It is alleged that the Matsika brother brought the loot of money from South Africa which he had stolen from a Nigerian businessman.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The man proceeded to his rural home in Gokwe where he started squandering the money and called his other two brothers to come an join him in the spending spree. Trouble started when he gave his brothers certain amounts of money and they started hallucinating.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A neighbour who spoke on condition of anonymity said: "One of the  brothers who was based in South Africa returned a few weeks ago. He did not stay long in Mzilikazi as he immediately left for their rural home in Gokwe. He just showed his brothers his money and told them to follow him if they wanted it. Simba, the one who stays at their house followed him and was given ZAR10,000 <i>(Ten Thousand South African Rand)</i>. I don't know how much the owner got.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"When Simba returned, he told his friends about the money and was extremely happy. He was planning to invest the money, but unfortunately he became mentally challenged. He started breaking neighbours' windows saying he was fighting with some people, but they were only seen by him," narrated the source.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Simba's other brother who was at their home reportedly started acting weird as well and joined him in breaking neighbours' windows.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"Their relatives who were at the house phoned their parents in Gokwe to inform them about what was happening. To their surprise they were told that the other one who had brought the money was also acting the same way. Simba and his other brother were then taken to Ingutsheni Hospital for mental patients and Simba was discharged just before Christmas," said the source.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A tenant at the house confirmed the incident, but refused to give details on what happened.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"Simba broke neighbours' windows and he claimed that he was fighting with some people who wanted to take his money away," said the tenant.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Efforts to get a comment from the family were fruitless as they refused to entertain news reporters. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Simba's whereabouts were not known by the time of going to press.</div>
