Son Kills His Father In Lagos During Their Quarrel

Homicide detectives from the State Criminal Investigations Department

(SCID), Yaba, Lagos State, have arrested a young man for the murder of

his father.



The crime took place at Mile 2, Estate area of the state, Saturday

morning, The Eagle Online reports.



A 25-year-old Oluropo Tifase is believed to have stabbed his father to

death with scissors during their quarrel.



According to the reports, the deceased was rebuking his son for his

inappropriate behaviour before the latter cruelly attacked him.



Residents from the area, where the crime took place, alleged that

Moses Tifase was murdered by his son, who had been earlier dismissed

from the University of Lagos.



Lagos State police spokesman, Kenneth Nwosu, later revealed that the

suspect had been having constant battles with his late father over his

uncontrollable behavior.



Nwosu said:



"The suspect and his late father had a sour relationship due to his

unruly behaviour.The father and the son have not been in good

relationship, but on the fateful day of the incident, the suspect and

his father engaged each other in a serious argument.



"The suspect angrily picked up a scissors and stabbed his father on the neck."



The police spokesman added that the suspect's mother and sister were

present when the crime was committed. That is why three members of the

family were taken to SCID for further investigation.



A similar crime happened earlier this year in Enugu State where a

30-year-old man, Chukwukezi Afonogu shot his father dead from the

hunter' gun after one of their quarrels.

How Not To Fall In Love With The Wrong Person

Last week Toni Payne vented again on Instagram about her broken

marriage and how she's been called "every name in the book" because

she loved the wrong person. The issue caused some stir on social

media.



We may never find out for sure what really happened between her and

9ice and what made them divorce within a year. However, maybe Toni is

right. Maybe she and 9ice weren't really right for each other. Maybe

they fell in love with the wrong person.



Toni Payne and 9ice

Sometimes when people go into a relationship with someone, they soon

realise that the person's not right for them and that they're

essentially incompatible. But they go on with the relationship anyway.

Sometimes they do this in hope that things will change along the line

and that they'll be able to fix the situation. However, this often

turns out to be a costly miscalculation, and relationships like that

inevitably reach breaking point and implode.



In the movie God's Not Dead, Amy is dating a young business executive

and her doctor has just told her she has cancer. But when she meets

her boyfriend and gives him the news, his attitude changes and he

starts to hint that he'll leave her.



So she asks him in surprise, "I thought you love me. Why didn't I see

this coming?"



He replies, "Because you saw what you wanted to see."



Many people are like that. They're so caught up in the relationship

that they fail to see the handwriting on the wall. What they see is

the looks, talent, possession, and all that stuff. Then when things

get messed up and they realise they've been in love with the wrong

person the whole time, they wonder why they didn't see it coming. The

thing is, they saw what they wanted to see and not what was actually

there.



People also fall in love with the wrong person when they don't have a

clear idea of what they want right from the beginning. It's like going

shopping without deciding what you want or what would be best for you

and then expecting to get a great purchase. So many people go into a

relationship without first determining what kind of man or woman would

be right for them.



That's why even the wrong person seems right to them, because they

haven't prepared to sort the wheat from the chaff.



There are also times when people get into or hang onto a relationship

because of sympathy or indebtedness. They feel that this person has

done a lot for them and that they're indebted to them. So even though

they can see that this person isn't right for them, they stick to the

person anyway.



It's the same way with sympathy. People who make this mistake feel

that the person really needs them right now and that they NEED to be

with this person. So they get sucked in, and eventually they realise

they've put themselves in an unnecessary situation.



Choosing the right person is a very crucial step in developing a

lasting relationship. It takes a lot of caution and sense. So when we

find we're with the wrong person, it's best to stop hoping we can fix

them or the relationship and find the courage to move on. It's also

important to pay close attention to the signs when we're in a

relationship and not get carried away by the nice things about the

person. We need to clearly determine what kind of person would be

right for us and make sure to vet people before committing to them.

Relationship with the right person is never based on sympathy or

indebtedness.



9ice and Toni Payne have shown us so far that the wrong people for us

aren't necessarily bad people. They're simply not right for us — and

when we take this for granted, we sign up for problems that might take

years to resolve, or might never be resolved.

How To Get Someone You Like To Notice You

Attention : How do you get someone you like to notice you?



This is perhaps the oldest conundrum known to man, right after how to

get dinosaurs to not notice you. Here are some ways to get a guy's

attention, when he doesn't even know you exist.



(Note: you have to exist or these will not work.)



1.) Make eye contact with him from across the room, and then

seductively lick your lips. If you can't find them, lick someone

else's lips.



2.) Make eye contact with him but putting your eyeball on his arm.



3.) Stand behind him and tap him on the shoulder, but then sidestep

when he spins around, and keep doing this until he is so dizzy that he

is in love with you probably.



4.) Shout out "Hey, future husband!" and then, if he turns around, he

is obligated to marry you, by the law of "responds-to-shoutsies".



5.) Whistle sharply with your fingers so that he looks up at you, but

be sure you can actually do this or he'll just see you going "pthhbth"

with your fingers in your mouth.



6.) Strut around displaying your colorful plumage in order to show

your desirability as a mate (must be a peafowl).



7.) Wink at him. If you can't wink, use

your hands to grab one eyelid and wink manually.



8.) Dress to be noticed by wearing your finest wizard cloak or vampire costume.



9.) Pour your heart out in a long, rambling letter about all of your

feelings and emotions and then put some perfume in the letter and then

seal the letter with a kiss and then chicken out and put the letter in

the garbage and go cry in your bed.



10.) Wear an exotic fragrance that nobody else wears, so that he will

associate this scent only with you (e.g. Fresh Gasoline or Crayon

Taste).



11.) Make some gestures at him, and then explain that you were telling

him he was cute in sign language, even though what you actually said

was "wrrlhgbln."



12.) Guys like girls who seem like they're always having fun, so make

sure he always notices you laughing, no matter where you are. ("Ha ha

ha this is a hilarious funeral.")



13.) Talk loudly about bras and stuff at all times, in case he happens

to walk past you and is therefore forced to think about your

underwear.



14.) Walk up to him when he's talking with friends and clear your

throat. If this doesn't work, start clearing all of your body parts,

one after another. Do not stop until he is your boyfriend.



15.) Get some super-kawaii anime surgery and start calling him

"boyfriend-kun;" hopefully he won't notice that you weren't already

dating, or that you are an anime monster.



16.) Primp when you catch him looking your way by adjusting your

clothes and fixing your hair (particularly if you broke it with

anime).



17.) Muss up his hair and tell him he is a good boy like he is a dog.

Then lock eyes with him and say, "I am aware you are a human."



18.) Walk by his table at lunch, then immediately turn around and walk

past again, stomping harder and harder every time until he notices

you.



19.) Drop a lot of mysterious hints around him, e.g. "You're looking a

little under-the-weather" and "If you go out with me I will give you

the antidote."



20.) "Accidentally" run into him somewhere and act like it's all a big

coincidence. ("Wow, I didn't think I'd run into you here, in your

bedroom, looming over you while you are asleep!")



21.) Mention all of the little things you've noticed about him, such

as his eye color, his blood type, how surprisingly easy it is to steal

someone's blood, etc.



22.) Snap your fingers. If this doesn't work, snap his fingers.



23.) People love spontaneity, so he would probably find it really cute

if he got in his car to drive home and you leaped up out of the back

seat and shouted "GUESS WHO LOVES YOU??"



24.) One subtle way to flirt is to position yourself closer to

someone, inside his personal space, so try moving into his basement

without explanation or permission.



25.) Play hard-to-get, with the police, because you will have their

attention too at this point.

Earth Science

Earth science is the study of our planet's physical characteristics,

from earthquakes to raindrops, and floods to fossils. It contains many

branches, such as GEOLOGYand oceanography (the study of the world's

oceans).



WHY IS EARTH SCIENCE USEFUL?

Earth science affects our everyday lives. For example, meteorologists

study the weather and watch for dangerous storms. Hydrologists study

water and warn of floods. Seismologists study earthquakes and try to

predict where they will strike. Geologists study rocks and help to

locate useful minerals.



HOW DO EARTH SCIENTISTS WORK?

Earth scientists mainly work "in the field"—climbing mountains,

exploring the seabed, crawling through caves, or wading in swamps.

They measure and collect samples (such as rocks or river water), then

they record their findings on charts and maps.



GEOLOGY

Geology is the study of the rocks that form the planet's surface.

Geologists examine rocks to find out about the history of the Earth

and how Earth was formed.



HOW DO GEOLOGISTS DATE ROCKS?

Rocks are dated using several methods. Geologists called

stratigraphers study the distribution and order of rock layers, or

strata. The youngest rocks are usually found in layers near the

surface; older rocks lie deeper below. Some rocks contain radioactive

elements that can be dated because they decay, or change, at a

particular rate.



HOW DO FOSSILS HELP TO DATE ROCKS?

Fossils (remains or prints of living things preserved in certain types

of rock) tell scientists the relative age of that rock—that is,

whether it is older or younger than other rocks. This helps scientists

to figure out the history of rock formation in different areas. The

first fossils were formed around 3,600 million years ago.

Nigerian musician, who revealed that he had very humble beginnings

before becoming famous.



He revealed this after receiving the coveted Next Rated Award at the

2014 Headies, his third award for the night.



"When I sang "When I moved from nothing to something, that is my

story", I meant it. I would like to say something, 2 years ago, I was

living in a one room apartment, now, I'm living… somewhere around,"the

singer said.



"If I tell you say I been dey sell rat killer, you go believe? If I

tell you say I do bricklayer for Lagos you go believe? Don't let

anyone stop you from achieving your dreams,"he added.



The singer, received a Hyundai SUV along with the award, and is

popular for hit tracks such as Alubarika and Girlie O remix featuring

Gunmen Abduct Pastor’s Wife in Ebonyi

THE wife of the Pastor Chris Aniamaka in charge of Dominion City,

Kpirikpiri, Abakaliki, Ebonyi State, Pastor (Mrs.) Ifeanyi Aniamaka

was weekend kidnapped by unknown gunmen at her residence in Abakaliki.



We learned that the victim who was trailed with a yellow bus while she

was driving in her KIA Rio car with registration number DK487BEN, was

intercepted at her residence in Onwe Nkam street, Democracy Estate,

Abakaliki and kidnapped.



The incident which took place at 3pm of the fateful day took both the

victim's neighbours and church members by surprise as such case was

the first in that area.



The husband of the victim and pastor of Dominion City, Kpirikpiri,

Pastor Aniamaka called on the church and security agents across the

state to ensure a speedy release of his wife from her abductors.

finished our thanksgiving service for the year and my wife decided to

drive the children home and they were intercepted at our residence.



"From the account of my children who were instructed to come down from

the vehicle before the kidnappers took my wife away, the kidnappers

followed them gradually from behind until they got to our residence in

Democracy Estate.



"They threatened my wife with a gun and told my children to come down

from the car before they drove away".



Vanguard gathered that the kidnappers who are still suspected to be in

be wealthy in the State.



A source close to the Ebonyi State Police Command who confirmed the

incident stated that the police had visited the scene of the incident

and that it was working assiduously to ensure the release of the

The Only Thing Buhari Has Changed Is His Dressing, His Ideas Are Still Tired, His Utterances Provocative – PDP

The national leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has

welcomed the candidacy of the former Military Head of State, General

Muhammadu Buhari as the Presidential flag bearer of the All

Progressives Congress (APC) for the 2015 general elections. The party

however said nothing has changed since the last time he contested

except his dinner suit.



"This will be the fourth time General Buhari will be contesting in the

presidential elections.



On each of the three previous occasions, he failed to articulate a

vision of the future that was acceptable to Nigerians. On each

occasion his brand of politics was rejected across Nigeria. Apart from

changing to a dinner suit, General Buhari, has not changed the tired

ideas and provocative utterances that Nigerians rejected in previous

elections.



"We hope that this time round, General Buhari will conduct a campaign

that is issue based and devoid of ethno-religious sentiments," the PDP

said in a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Chief Olisa

Metuh.



Metuh however maintained that the Presidential candidate of the PDP,

President Goodluck Jonathan remains the best man to rule the country.



"We are convinced that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) remains the

only truly National Political Party in Nigeria, a platform on which

all Nigerians can pursue their legitimate aspirations.

More Than 100 Vietnamese Brides Vanish After Marrying Men From Rural China

Chinese police are on the trail of more than 100 Vietnamese brides who

vanished after marrying bachelors from a poor rural area of the

country, with reports suggesting that an organised ring could be

behind the disappearances. Read more from ABC news:



The grooms, from Quzhou in northern Hebei province, were introduced to

the women by Wu Meiyu, a Vietnamese bride who had lived in the area

for 20 years, the China Daily said.



Ms Wu, who received payments of more than 100,000 yuan ($19,000) if

the introductions were successful, also disappeared with the 100

women, the report added. The state-run newspaper cited an unnamed

local official saying an organised ring might be involved in the mass

disappearance.



"With the advanced communication techniques of today, it's easy for

all the brides to leave at the same time," the man told the newspaper.



Buying wives from south-east Asian countries has become increasingly

common in some of China's poor rural areas, where a gender imbalance

has developed due to a traditional preference for sons and the

country's family planning policies.



Across China, 118 males are born for every 100 females, according to

government statistics. In some rural areas men can be expected to own

a house, car, and have considerable wealth before they can attract a

Chinese bride, a cost the China Daily said could reach 400,000 yuan.

Talented Nigerian Footballer Stabbed To Death In London

A Nigerian teenager, Joel Adesina, was stabbed in the stomach during a

late-night row on Friday night last week in Bethnal Green, East London

after Joel and his friends were ambushed while taking a walk and were

chased into a housing belongings where he was murdered.



Joel Adesina, who was stabbed in Bethnal Green, in East London, and later died



He was an 'ambitious' and 'hard-working' teenager who was talented

enough to play professionally in the topflight of the English football

league.



According to the Daily Mail, Joel was rushed to the hospital where he

died three hours later into Saturday morning.



The police arrested an 18 year-old suspect but later released with no

further action to be taken.



Friends and manager of the teenager's football team represented him a

gentle young boy who never stayed out late as he was mostly seen

returning home in his football kits.



His coach at Bardag FC Yellows, Ricky Downes, said: "Joel as a winger

was 'as good as gold" and talented enough to play professionally,'.



''To say that myself and the club are devastated is an understatement,

we are absolutely in bits.



''Joel was a wonderful young lad who had the world at his feet.



''He was a very talented footballer and had ambitions of playing

professionally. I think he had a future in the sport and could have

played for a living.



''He was a very talented footballer and had ambitions of playing

professionally. I think he had a future in the sport and could have

played for a living.



''There was something about Joel that touched me and his death is

totally unexpected. He never gave me any inkling that he was involved

in gangs or anything like that.



'He was cheeky, bubbly, and a thoroughly likeable young man,'' 55

year-old Mr Downes added.



Detective Chief Inspector Chris Jones of the Met's Homicide and Major

Crime Command said: 'Anyone who may have witnessed this altercation or

have information which could assist the investigation is asked to

contact the police as soon as possible.'

Nigeria Set For Its Own Satellite in 2018

The Minister of Science, Dr. Abdu Bulama said yesterday that the

National Space Research and Development Agency (NASDRA) would

facilitate the building and launching of the made in Nigeria satellite

which would be ready by 2018, Guardian reports.



"They (NASRDA) should be able to meet the target of 2018 to produce a

Nigerian satellite."The minister said.



President Goodluck Jonathan had last year launched the National Space

Council with a charge to design a made in Nigeria satellite.



Members of the Council include the President as Chairman, the Vice

President, Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Attorney

General/Minister of Justice, Minister of Science & Technology,

Minister of Communication Technology, Minister of Defence, Minister of

National Planning, Minister of Education, Minister of Interior,

National Security Adviser, Director General, NASRDA and Secretary to

Council, Prof. V.O.S Olunloyo, Prof. Francisca Okeke and Prof. E.D.

Mishelia.



The president had charged the National Space Research and Development

Agency to develop the capacity to design a made in Nigeria Satellite

and launch the satellite from Nigerian soil in the very near future.



It will be recalled that the Federal Ministry of Agriculture earlier

in the year revealed its plan of working on a comprehensive livestock

information system that will require all cattle in the country to

carry electronic chips while satellite imagery and remote sensing

technology are deployed to track their movements.



However this was purely a security measure aimed at curbing the

incessant clashes between fulani herdsmen and farmers.

Popular Nollywood Actress Laide Bakare Is Angry, Says Haters Can Go To Hell

Controversial Nollywood actress, Laide Bakare who recently had her

third baby in New York Cityis angry!



The beautiful actress who recently re-married can be said to have been

through different ups and downs. She got lashed-at by her

ex-husband Olumide Okufulure over her new marriage to Alhaji Tunde

Mutairu Tunde Oriowo defrauded Telecoms giant, MTN of a whooping sum

of N2.5bn.The report which got many brows raised towards the actress

and many tongues, wagging at the beautiful mother of three. This also

led to the actress' boutique being shut down by the Economic

Financial Crimes Commission.



The Nollywood actress who has been really enmeshed in marriage

scandals was said to have married her second husband Alhaji Orilowo

without legally ending her first marriage to Olumide Okufulire.



Laide is now back in Nigeria after her delivery and in a new interview

with Encomium she refused to address her personal life. All she had to

say was:



"You can't change who I am. I don't talk about my marriage. I can't

talk about my love. I just don't find it convenient discussing my

love. It's nobody's business. I am in love, good. I am remarried,

good. I have a new kid, good, I am who I am, good, I am contented and

I am so happy with my life.



Thus, anybody who is not happy with my new found joy should go to hell."



The nursing mother says she is not in any way bothered by all the

rumors going on about her, she also went ahead to attribute all the

negative talk about her to a certain blackmailer whose identity she

withheld.

Female Suicide Bomber Nabbed In Maidugiri

Security agents arrested a suspected female suicide bomber who

concealed an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) in a food flask she was

carrying to blow up the General Shuwa Memorial Hospital, Maiduguri

yesterday, Guardian reports.



The suspected suicide bomber who is fairly old, was confronted by

the hospital's security guards at the gate. She disguised as a

relation of a female patient who had come to present food at the

maternity ward. But when she was stopped at the gate to open the two

food flasks she was carrying, she refused to open one of the flasks.





One of the hospital's security guards told journalists that:"When she

was asked to open the other flask, she refused, swearing that she will

not open it. Our security guards have to call the soldiers at a

military post to ascertain whether or not the flask contains any

explosive. Three minutes after, the bomb detector beeped for some

seconds, indicating the presence of an explosive device, and the old

woman was immediately whisked way by the military personnel to an

unknown destination for further interrogation and investigation."



He said when the woman was asked about where she stays, she told them

that:"I am an old woman from Chibok town, and I wanted to deliver food

to one of my relations admitted here in this hospital."



It will be recalled that a youth vigilante group in Borno recently

revealed that there are 52 female suicide bombers on the prowl in

Maiduguri.

Christ Embassy Music Director Arrested For Kidnap

It is true that when the devil pushes a man, he pushes the man to his

downfall. This is clearly the story of a robbery suspect, Edward Nnaji

who claimed to be a movie actor and played a role in a film titled

Friday Night and also the music director at Christ Embassy Church,

Zone 1, Idimangoro Parish, Agege, Lagos.



Edward-Nnaji-left-and-other-kidnap-suspects

The 25-year-old man alongsid two of his alleged accomplices were

arrested two years after they allegedly conspired with others to

kidnap a female banker, Popoola Morenikeji, and collected the sum of

N5 million as ransom before they set her free.



According to the police, PMnews reports that the suspects kidnapped

the victim at Amuwo Odofin area of Mile 2, Lagos close to her

residence when she stepped out of her vehicle to buy something and

took her to an uncompleted building in a bush at Mowe area of Ogun

State. They tied her legs and hands and kept her for four days until a

ransom was paid before they set her free.



The suspects reportedly set the victim free after her family members

paid the sum of N5 million as ransom.



The suspects, according to the police, also sold the victim's Toyota

Corolla car valued at N1.8 million for N250,000 to David Nwangboe (now

at large). They also sold all the jewellery and

handsets of the victim valued at N2 million and shared the loot.



Other suspects arrested in connection with the crime include Osas

Osagie, 23, from Ogbe village, Oredo LGA of Edo State and Patrick

Donatus Jackson, 29, who resides at 13, Famuyiwa Street, Idimangoro,

Agege, Lagos, and hails from Akwa Ibom State. One of the suspects

simply called Jek is also at large.



However, nemesis caught up with the arrested suspects two years after

they allegedly perpetrated the act on August 1, 2014. The alleged ring

leader, Nnaji regrouped with others and sent a threat to life text

message to the victim to send N150,000 into their account for recharge

card, with a warning that if she failed to send the money, they will

trail her this time around and eliminate her.



The banker immediately sent a petition to the Inspector general of

Police after receiving the sms to save her from the kidnappers.



The Commissioner of Police Federal SARS, DCP Chris Ezike, took the

matter up and deployed a team led by Inspector Oluwemimo Banjoko to

fish out the suspects and they were arrested in Lagos and Edo states.

During interrogation, all the suspects allegedly confessed to the

crime and led the police to the place they kidnapped the woman and

kept her for four days before she was set free. In his alleged

confession to the police, Nnaji said Jek master minded the kidnapping

.



"Jek brought the information that there was a woman that has money but

she was very selfish and that he will want was to assist him kidnap

her and collect money from her. One of us, Patrick, a private driver,

provided his master's car with which we trailed the victim to her

street at Amuwo Odofin Estate, Mile 2 Lagos and kidnapped her.



We blindfolded her and took her to an uncompleted building at Mowe

area of Ogun state and kept her and contacted her family to pay the

sum of N5 million as ransom or else we will kill her.



The family paid N1.5m and not N5m as claimed by the victim and the

police and we released her, but we did not allow the victim to suffer

while in our custody as we fed her with rice and chicken throughout

the four days she spent with us.



"My worry now is that I don't know how the devil pushed me again two

years after we committed the crime to threaten the victim again for

more money before we were arrested. God has blessed me as I am the

director of music at the Christ Embassy Zone 1 Parish , Idimangoro,

Lagos and also an actor who played a prominent role in a film titled

Friday Night which gave me fame and fortune. I promise to change if I

am set free,"Nnaji said.



The suspects have however been charged before an Igbosere Magistrates'

court, Lagos on a four-count charge of felony to wit, armed robbery.

The offenses the police prosecutor, Supol Charles Odii said, are

punishable under section 6 b, 1, 2(A) and b of the Robbery and

Firearms Act and sections 269(1)(2)(3) and 270 of the criminal laws of

Lagos state, 2011.



The plea of the accused persons was not taken and Magistrate E. N.

Johnson ordered that the accused be remanded in prison custody pending

DPP's advice on the matter. She adjourned the case till 13 January,

2015 for mention.

Christmas Akwa Ibom Bans Sale And Use Of Bangers

The Commissioner of Police in Akwa Ibom State, Mr. Gabriel Achong, has

warned members of the public, particularly users and marketers of

explosives, such as firecrackers, to desist henceforth, as those

caught in the act would be made to face the full wrath of the law

during the Christmas period.



Achong, who gave the warning in a statement in Uyo, the state capital

yesterday, explained that the ban on the use of explosives, especially

during the Yuletide season, was to avoid distractions that would

create opportunity for hoodlums to perpetrate crimes and criminality

in the state.



The commissioner also warned the youths and persons who engage in

masquerading and cultural displays to conduct themselves peacefully

throughout the season, saying the police under his watch, will not

condone acts capable of breaching the peace.

the habit of using and dealing in explosives, such as firecrackers,

should desist henceforth as this could cause distractions and threat

Me that I am a soda drinker. No wonder I no longer have a flat

tummy..choi! Lol. 50 year old George Prior wanted to show what

drinking too much soda does to the body and used himself as

experiment. The result is scary.



George said he drank 10 cans of saod a day for 30 days to see how the

sugar content will affect his physical health. It did! He gained over

20 pounds in that one month…mostly in his stomach area.



Above is the before and after photos. He

Check The Level Of Corruption Around The World As Nigeria Was Ranked as 136

Nigeria ranked below such African countries like Botswana, Cape Verde,

Mauritius, Namibia, Rwanda, Ghana and Tunisia.



This result is caused by the good governance body, which mission is to

stop corruption and promote transparency, accountability and integrity

at all levels and across all sectors of society.



According to the latest report provided by Transparency International

(TI) Nigeria has been ranked the 136th most corrupt nation out of the

174 countries.



The TI's Corruption Perceptions Index ranks countries and territories

based on how corrupt their public sector is perceived to be. According

to the organisation, a country or territory's score indicates the

perceived level of public sector corruption on a scale of 0 (highly

corrupt) to 100 (very clean). A country or territory's rank indicates

its position relative to the other countries and territories in the

index.



José Ugaz who is the chairman of the global anti-corruption body says:

"The 2014 Corruption Perceptions Index shows that economic growth is

undermined and efforts to stop corruption fade when leaders and high

level officials abuse power to appropriate public funds for personal

gain".

7 Habits Of True Gentleman That Make Women Melt

In a world filled with late-night booty calls, infidelity and a

general "hit it and split it" mentality, it's easy to become jaded by

today's dating scene.However, true gentlemen who can win a girl over

still exist and if you, guys, want to be one of them read carefully

what kind of habits you should develop.





1. Opening doors

A guy who takes the time to come around and open the car door for you

is a keeper. Recognize and appreciate a guy who puts your comfort and

well-being first, even if it's just for a few extra seconds.



2. Saving the last bite of food

When he saves the last bite for you, it's basically him saying he

likes you more than any meal

They say the way to a man's heart is through his stomach. So, when he

saves the last bite for you, it's basically him saying he likes you

more than whatever meal is in front of him. Which, for the record, is

a lot.





A guy who shows interest in your baby photos, coaches your little

brother on how to play football and compliments your mother's cooking

is a guy who's in it for the long haul. These are small gestures, but

they speak volumes about his intentions.





4. Suffering through a girly movie

When a man volunteers to endure a girly show or a movie because he

knows you'll enjoy it, he earns major bonus points. (Even more, if he

does so without complaining or expecting something in return.)





5. Sending flowers

Bring unexpected flowers to make a girl smile

And it should not be the impressive bouquet you get on St. Valentine's

Day. There's just something about unexpected flowers that make a girl

smile.





6. Walking on the outside of the sidewalk

The first time someone does this, you will probably be confused. But

then you'll start to question how come other men in your life have

never been concerned about positioning themselves in such a way that

you'd be protected should a curbside tragedy strike.



7. Putting your jacket on

Chivalry is not dead, men can be everyday knights in shining armor

Women are fully capable of putting their own jackets on, but it's not

a question of ability. It's gentlemanly and kind for someone to hold

out your jacket for you or offer you theirs when it's cold.







Chivalry is not dead, men can be everyday knights in shining armour.

You just have to learn to spot the subtle, more meaningful gestures.

Man Puts Snake And Giant Tarantula In His Mouth

A Brazillian man has become an Internet sensation after shooting a

video where he puts a live tarantula and a snake in his mouth at the

same time.



The creepy footage shows Arteval Duarte, who calls himself the 'Ninja

of Serpents', handling a banded cat-eyed snake and a pinktoe

tarantula. Then he carefully wraps the snake around the spider and

place both of them in his mouth.



The footage shows Arteval Duarte andling a banded cat-eyed snake and a

pinktoe tarantula.

With the lens close to his face, Mr Duarte let the creatures both

crawl inside his mouth till then the snake successfully unwrapped

itself and the tarantula stepped out from his mouth. The 'handler'

says he has been charming and training poisonous animals for more than

15 years.



Mr Duarte let the creatures both crawl inside his mouth till then the

snake successfully unwrapped itself and the tarantula stepped out from

his mouth



The venom of a pinktoe tarantula is considered mild, even compared to

other new-world tarantulas. The banded cat-eyed tends not to bite

humans when handled, but when it does, the venom has relatively mild

effects in most individuals (some describe it as a slight

irritating/itching sensation with slight swelling). The snake is not

considered a risk to human health.

Band played at the funeral.



The photo of Dog Dr. Papilo

A grand dog's funeraltook place at Oshifila Street, Computer Village,

Ikeja, Lagos State.



The service of songs was held earlier at Canaan Hotel, Ikeja.

The late fifteen-year-old dog which belonged to thechief executive of

Canaan hotel, Prince Aniwhoalso serves with the Nigerian Army in Ikeja

was praised as a special breed of Dog.



The dog was buried in a four-feet grave which was decorated with roses

and was just beside the hotel where it served for a long time.



Then ecrologynotice wasplacedin different areas around Ikeja, which

made people wonder in awe:

"With gratitude to God for a life well spent, we the family of Tracy,

Lion. Quincy and Adriano wish to announce the sorrowful departure of

our father, Dr. Papilo Cannan that died on November 17, 2014, after a

brief illness. Aged 15, may his gentle soul rest in peace."

dog by signing the condolence register provided at the event.



The rare event was sealed with seven-gun shots by a detachment of

policemen in salute of the dead dog and a minute silence.



Highly placed men and women in the society ranging from dog-owners,

military personnel, police officers, veterinary doctors attended the

event.



Paying tribute to the beloved pet, Prince Ani who wore a black suit at

his dog's funeral said:



"My wife and I stayed together for some time without a child.

Suddenly, people started calling us Papa and Mama Papilo. The dog

travelled with me to Jos and Maiduguri. While in Maiduguri, it was

trained and used to hunt bombers. It was a unique dog. In the real

sense, it was my first child. When I lost Papilo, I felt sad the same

way I felt when I lost my wife. The dog was just too close to me".



The owner also spoke of the dog's security consciousness:

"Papilo confronted armed robbers sometime ago and gave one of them a

serious injury. The robber could not run further, and was later caught

by the police. Everybody knew Papilo in this area. I am missing the

dog, and the other six dogs at the hotel are also missing Papilo

because it was like their father. Here, we treat dogs like human

beings. We give them the best food you could think of."

SEE Photo Of The Nigerian Man Who Was Jailed For Impersonating Actor Majid Michel

Recall the Nigerian man that impersonated Ghanian actor, Majid Michel?

Well, the fraudster is going to prison.



Kelvin Ogodogu has been jailed in Ghana for 10 months with hard labour.



Kelvin was arrested on the 15th of November, 2014 when he tried to

scam a woman, by telling her on Facebook that he's Majid Michel, and

needs money to facilitate his mother's funeral.



Well, luck ran out on him, when the same woman, met he real Majid in

the US during his visit, and that was how the bubble burst and poor

Kelvin was investigated and caught while trying to retrieve the money

via Western Union.



Kelvin was arraigned on Thursday before a Magistrates Court in Teshie,

Ghana, where he was sentenced to 10 months with hard labour.



Eya!!! What do you think of the sentence???

Should I Have Sold My Virginity For N600,000?

I have been making most of my withdrawals across the counter since my

ATM card got expired last month.



Anyway, I breezed into a random Diamond bank yesterday afternoon to

withdraw money.



Got the withdrawal slip and wrote out a whooping sum of two thousand,

five hundred Naira. ( I had to spell it in full so the amount would

seem huge)



My hands were stretched out non chalantly to the female banker and

when she raised her face to receive my slip, I recognise her as Seun,

my room mate in my 200L.



'Damn!" I cursed. Not when I am appearing this shabby. I should have

added another zero to the N2500 if I knew I was going to bump into

Seun.



As girls who haven't seen each other in more than two years, there was

bound to be some sort of comparison. I heaved a sigh when I remembered

my account balance is just N22000.



"Lord have mercy! Naija single girl? Is this yewwww?" she exclaimed,

stretching out her short arms in an unsuccessful attempt to hug me

over the counter.



She snatched my slip and gazed at me pitifully.

"Babezzz are things that bad? This one N2500 is bringing you to the

bank. I could pay you from my pockets you know."

No thanks!



During our days in the university, Seun was a flippant part time

student. We often teased her that her type may go as long as ten years

without getting a job.



I even promised I was going to lend her my NYSC khaki to take

Instagram photos in her backyard since part time students were not

eligible to participate in NYSC orientation exercise.



Today, the wheels of fortune has spun in her favour.



I had to lie I actually came to the bank to withdraw 15K. I took the

slip from her, tore it into two and wrote out another draft of 15K

which she paid from my account.

On getting out, I had to board a vehicle to another branch of Diamond

Bank to pay in the 12.5K balance sharp sharp! Zero tolerance for

extravagance.



Last night, we had a lengthy conversation on phone.

She wanted to know why I was unemployed and I kept dismissing her

with, "Don't worry about me jare. I'm working on something."



"Something ke? Lie lie! You think this your good girl attitude would

get you anywhere in this country?



Don't you know I got my banking job through Chuwkudi, that my sugar

daddy. If you didn't dull his friend your story would have been

different today!"



Chuwkudi's friend was a stinking oil rich magnate in Portharcourt. I

met him through Seun but there was a problem. He was married!

Seun is of the school of thought that there is absolutely nothing

wrong in dating a married man so long as both parties share some

fringe benefit in return.



Chuwkudi's friend was generous. He was ready to dash me one of

Nigeria's oil well if only I was willingly to spread one of my legs to

the South South and the other to the North East for him whenever he

needed TLC.



Each time he came by my hostel, he would squeeze N10000 to N15000 into

my palms for dinner.

During my first and unfortunately, my last tour to his company's

lodge, he promised me an IT placement in Mobil. I was going to get an

already furnished flat at his quarters after graduation. He was going

to influence my NYSC posting to an oil company and of course, a well

paying job upon completion of NYSC.



All these promises in exchange for my hymen…

"Sir, but I told you I cannot…I have not done this before…" I trailed off.



He tore off a page of his cheque book, scribbled something down and

handed the paper over to me.



"This would be yours if you spend tonight with me. . . I would make

you the envy of your friends." He swore.



Six hundred thousand Naira was written boldly on the cheque.

The highest amount of money that had ever been offered leisurely to

someone in my family's genealogy.



Honestly, It took a special level of grace to dropped the cheque on

his table and walk out that door forever.



Did that singular 'goodgirl' attitude cost me my surest ticket to this

good life I crave for? I hope not.

My Village People Charmed Me With Robbery – Suspect Moans [See Photo]

A suspected armed robber, 28- year-old Emehelu Ndubuisi and his

accomplice have been arrested by the Lagos State Police Command.



Police say the duo belong to an armed robbery syndicate which

allegedly snatched cars and terrorised motorists in the Lagos

metropolis.

were responsible for his inability to stop the act.

His story:



"I am standing trial in court for a robbery case. I used to sell motor

spare parts at the Ladipo Market, Oshodi. I was initially arrested by

the police in February this year, and was charged to the Ikeja

Magistrate's Court.



"I was remanded in the Kirikiri Medium Prison for some weeks during

which I met one convict, Ogaga. He had spent three years in the

prison. He told me some men wanted to sell a stolen vehicle, but I did

not listen to him.



"After I secured my bail, I went to my village to attend my

grandmother's burial and I noticed some family members were not happy

to see me. When I returned from the trip, I did not know how I

listened to Ogaga's advice.



"I had sworn never to rob again, but my village people are very evil.

They must have charmed me with robbery. It was at the point of

collecting the stolen vehicle in Lagos that the police re-arrested

me."



The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Kenneth Nwosu,

confirmed the arrest.
