Tompolo,Ateke.Boyloaf,Asari Etc Vows Mayhem If Goodluck Loses Presidential Election

Prominent Niger Delta militants have vowed to ensure that President Goodluck Jonathan wins the February 14 presidential election. Mr. Jonathan is of the Ijaw ethnic stock, and the only member of a minority tribe from the South to have ever governed Nigeria.

The former militants, who said any attempt to dethrone the President would be seen as a direct attack on the Ijaw nation, threatened to unleash violence on the country and take back Niger Delta oil should Goodluck Jonathan lose re-election.

According to them the President’s victory in the election is not negotiable.
The former militant leaders took the position Friday in Government House, Yenagoa, the Bayelsa State capital, at an enlarged meeting that was attended by all the former militant leaders and their followers across the Niger Delta region.

Barely two years after popular Nigerian actress, Toyin Aihmaku, tied the knots with her actor hubby, Niyi Johnson, at the Ikoyi Registry in Lagos, the pair are said to have parted ways.

The news, which filtered in on Saturday, came as a rude shock to fans of the fun-loving couple known for displaying affection for each other on social media.

The question on the lips of many at the moment is what could have gone wrong within three weeks? This is because three weeks ago, Johnson posted picture of him and wife’s with the caption, “It all began here-our first picture to go viral. This year, fight tirelessly until glory is attained, it’s a year of testimony and success will be ours in all spheres. Less I forget vote for Adeniyi Johnson in Maya Awards as the Actor of the year and Alakada as the movie of year. Love you plenty.”

Somebody Tell GEJ That Refusal To Jail Looters Is An Impeachable Offence! By Ilesanmi Omabomi

Pension thieves during a court appearance

They say the first thing you do when you find yourself in a hole is to stop digging. But not GEJ. Like most of his other absurdities GEJ does not seem to get this simple logic. His entire campaign has been nothing but a production line for absurdities.

GEJ has been struggling to cope with the politically asphyxiating effects of his opponent Mohamadu Buhari’s anti-corruption driven campaign. GEJ has been under the hammer for running a corruption ridden government. In an attempt to defend himself he comes up with the most absurd argument possible. He tells the very voters he is soliciting their votes that he has failed to fight corruption because he does not believe in sending people to jail. This was obviously intended to be a shot aimed at his opponent GMB who jailed several corrupt politicians when he first led the country in the eighties. Given the anti-corruption atmosphere currently pervading the country, a competent campaign manager will be convulsing upon hearing his candidate commit this political hara-kiri. But not GEJ and his campaign team. As if he has been told that his response was well received, he runs around the country like a headless Christmas chicken dishing out the same repugnant explanation to voters who are hell mad about corruption and its debilitating effects of their lives.

The national leadership of Northern Youths Leader Forum (NYLF) yesterday gave a seven-day ultimatum to President Goodluck Jonathan to publicly apologise to the people of the North over the death wish advert targeted at the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari.

The advertorial was published by two national newspapers last Monday on their front pages. It was sponsored by Ekiti State Governor Ayo Fayose of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

The NULF said t was saddened over the President’s silence on the issue. But the PDP leadership on Tuesday disowned the advertorial, saying Gov. Fayose was on his own.

King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia, who came to the throne in old age and earned a reputation as a cautious reformer even as the Arab Spring revolts toppled heads of state and Islamic State militants threatened the Muslim establishment that he represented, died on Friday, according to a statement on state television. He was 90.

The Royal Court said in a statement broadcast across the kingdom that the king had died early Friday. The royal court did not disclose the exact cause of death. An announcement quoted by the official Saudi Press Agency said the king had a lung infection when he was admitted on Dec. 31 to a Riyadh hospital.

The king’s death adds yet another element of uncertainty in a region already overwhelmed by crises and as Saudi Arabia is itself in a struggle with Iran for regional dominance.

Muhammadu Buhari and President Goodluck Jonathan

GMB must at every stop remind Nigerians that while GEJ was very swift in removing the oil subsidy he has been travelling at a slower than snail speed in apprehending his friends who stole the N2 trillion plus in oil subsidy. He should put the stolen amount into perspective by telling voters that it is about 50% of the country’s entire budget. He can further flesh out the monstrosity of this fraud by explaining to the voters that his youth employment program under which his government plans to hire 20,000 young people from each state of the federation and 720,000 nationwide will cost N172.8 Billion a year if each person receives a salary of N20,000 a month. The total cost is less than 10% of the money stolen by GEJ’s friends.

The President of Nigeria’s Court of Appeal between 1999 and 2009, Justice Umaru Abdullahi, on Wednesday said he sat for the West African School Certificate exams in 1961 alongside Muhammadu Buhari, the Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress.

The Buhari Campaign Co-ordinator for Ondo State, Mr. Ife Oyedele, has alleged that the Peoples Democratic Party in the state is plotting to organise youths to attack the convoy of Maj.-Gen Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), the presidential candidate of the opposition All Progressives Congress, during his campaign in Akure on Saturday .

Oyedele, at a conference organised by the Muhammadu Buhari Legacy Foundation, an NGO rallying support... for Buhari, in Akure on Thursday, said the PDP plot was to serve as retaliation for the attack on the convoy of President Goodluck Jonathan in Katsina on Tuesday.

He said, “The PDP is organising thugs to stone our convoy on Saturday. They are recruiting thugs that will be throwing stones at General Buhari, just to give the impression that he is not loved by the people of the state.

NO fewer than six SSS security operatives attached to President Goodluck Jonathan were injured when opposition supporters attacked the president’s motorcade in Bauchi, on Thursday, after he addressed a political rally in the state. It will be the second time in the space of four days that his convoy would be attacked, following a similar incident in Katsina on Monday.The president was on his way to Bauchi airport, when broom-wiel...ding youths chanting “sai Buhari” attacked the convoy with a hail of stones, some of which apparently caught some presidential bodyguards protecting him.

An All Progressives Congress supporter in the Agege area of Lagos State, Mr. Eyitayo Peters aka Abona, lost his life on Thursday after being shot in the face on Orile Road.It was gathered that another APC supporter, Lanre Ogunjimi, was shot in the waist on the same road but was rushed to a nearby hospital where he was immediately taken into the theatre for surgery. The incident was caused by a feud between supporters of Mr. Oluyinka Ogundinmu of the APC and Mr. Oluniyi Raheem of the Peoples Democratic Party.

“Osinbanjo is my Problem” – The Fear Of Osinbajo by GEJ is the Beginning of Wisdom !

His fear has become the beginning of wisdom not only for the PDP which has ruled this country since the return to civil rule 16 years ago, but also for President Goodluck Jonathan who has been in the saddle of power at Aso Villa for 6 years, ruling with ruthlessness, cluelessness, sheer inefficiency, ineffectiveness, incompetence, profligacy and impunity.

President Jonathan is currently in Kano for his party rally. Pictured after the cut are President Jonathan, VP Sambo, PDP party chair Muazu with the Emir of Kano.

Muhammadu Buhari, GCFR, on the School Certificate Issue

Gentlemen of the Press,

I only consented to address you this morning because of the genuine concern expressed by many supporters and other well-meaning Nigerians that the issue be addressed. Otherwise, I would have dismissed it for what it is—sheer mischief and would not have considered it an issue worth the nation’s while.

I had assumed all along that all my records were in the custody of the Military Secretary of the Nigerian Army. Much to my surprise, we are now told that although a record of the result is available, there are no copies of the certificates in my personal file. This is why I formally requested my old school the Provincial Secondary School, Katsina [which is now known as Government College, Katsina] to make available the school’s copy of the result of the Cambridge/West African School Certificate. This will be made available to the press the moment it is available.

A German kidnapped by Boko Haram Islamist militants in northern Nigeria's Adamawa State in July has been released following a operation by Cameroon's military and allies, the government said in a statement on Wednesday.

Serious politics is going on in Abuja and some powerful people who have seen that Muhammadu Buhari is most likely going to win the Presidential election on February 14, 2015.

Do you know that the Nigerian Army spokesperson who addressed a press conference on Tuesday to announce that the army could not find General Buhari’s school certificate in its records, had already been redeployed from that post? He suspended his redeployment just to make that statement against Buhari.

Besides, those documents had just been released to General Buhari, less than 24 hours after the former Head of State requested them, and the sources said they were surprised Brigadier Olaleye Lajide was addressing the press.

The vagina is designed to keep itself clean with the help of natural secretions (discharge). Find out how to help your vagina keep clean and healthy – and why you don’t need douches or vaginal wipes.

The vagina is a tube of muscle inside a woman’s body that runs from the cervix (the opening of the womb) to the vaginal opening. The external sex organs, which are called the Arrow, surround the vaginal opening. Looking after your everyday health can help keep your vagina in good shape, says Dr Suzy Elneil, consultant in urogynaecology at University College Hospital, London, and spokesperson for Wellbeing of Women. “Generally, good vaginal health is maintained by making sure you’re in good general health,” she explains. “This includes healthy diet and exercise. Normal exercise helps maintain good vaginal function, as walking and running helps the pelvic floor to tone up and helps ensure good general health.”

Find out more about having a healthy diet, exercise and keeping fit, and pelvic floor exercises.

Vaginal secretions or discharge

Other than your period as part of your natural menstrual cycle, it’s normal to produce clear or white secretions (discharge) from your vagina. This mucus is produced naturally from the neck of the womb, known as the cervix.
