INCREDIBLE!! Check-Out Lionel Messi’s Amazing Car Collection! [PHOTOS]


Maserati GranTurismo MC Stradale(Pictured Above)

The Maserati GranTurismo MC Stradale has a top speed of 187mph and a 0-60mph speed of only 4.5 seconds, so it is safe to say that Messi’s car is almost as fast as he is. It has a typical layout of a high-performance sports car and possesses a 4.6 litre V8 engine. Prices are usually in excess of £100,000. For a famous footballer, that would account to perhaps a week’s wages, but an average person would need to work for a long time to be able to afford it.

Boko Haram Cut Our Church Members Throats –Bishop Reveals

The situation in Adamawa was so bad that, “Some people tried to escape through the windows and the attackers shot at them. They cut peoples’ throats.”
This was how the Catholic Bishop of Yola, Mamza Stephen, captured the calamity that befell worshippers at a Catholic church in Waga Chakawa in Adamawa State when Boko Haram insurgents struck last Sunday.

President Jonathan seeks death penalty for cyber crime

President Jonathan is seeking the death penalty for any person who is found guilty of hacking into Criminal National Information Infrastructure or any computer network that would lead to loss of lives

The bill which is called the Cyber Crime bill 2013 and currently before the House of Reps, seeks to address all forms of criminality within the cyberspace and also proposes a life sentence for anyone who uses any computer network to carry out terrorism acts. In a case where there is no loss of life but the offender causes grave bodily harm, the bill recommends a prison term of not less than 15months.

A 10 year jail term or a fine of N20million or both is been proposed for anyone who engages in child pornography..

The bill defines Critical National Information Infrastructure as 'certain computer systems, networks information infrastructure vital to the national security of Nigeria or the economy & social well-being of its citizen'.

Online retailers Konga and Jumia at war!

Online retailers Konga and Jumia are at war! The fight is so serious that Konga is considering taking legal action against the owners of Jumia. Konga is alleging that Rocket Internet, parent company of Jumia has hijacked all look alike name to Konga.com and registered it to divert traffic to their own site, Jumia.com.

Rocket Internet registered Konga.cd for Cote D’Ivoire, Konga.cm for Cameroun, Konga.ly for Libya, Konga.mu for Mauritius and Konga.ma for Morocco. Others include: Konga.mw for Malawi, Konga.sc for Seychelles, Konga.sh for Saint Helena, Konga.co.ke for Kenya and Konga.co.za for SA.

What this means is that if Konga decides to set up shop in any of these countries, Rocket Internet has effectively deprived them of the benefit of domain localisation. Continue...



The look alike sites were reportedly registered in June 2012 by Arnt Jeschke on behalf of Rocket Internet GmbH in Dublin.

Konga is now claiming that this development is affecting its effectiveness in over eleven countries including Nigeria, where it's major customers are.

The only option that they may have left would be to buy the domain names from Rocket Internet, for which, should Rocket Internet decide to sell at an exorbitant price, Konga may not be able to operate in that country as Konga.

Meanwhile sources close to Jumia.com claim Konga also registered a look alike name Jumai.com.ng which redirects to Konga. Konga claims they have since dropped the name.

In internet business, this practice is called cyber squatting and many countries haves enacted a law against it.

Konga founder, Shagaya, is said to be exploring means to seek legal redress against Jumia.com.

Konga.com and Jumia.com are presently the biggest e-commerce platform in this part of the world

318 Buildings To Be Demolished For 4th Mainland Bridge

The proposed Fourth Mainland Bridge
may not be realisable soon because;
"With the current plan, 318 buildings will
need to be demolished for the bridge to
take-off."

This was disclosed yesterday by the Lagos
State government, through the
Commissioner for Economic Planning and
Budget, Mr. Ben Akabueze and his
counterpart from the ministry of Works
and Infrastructure, Dr. Obafemi Hamzat, during an inter-ministerial press briefing
on analysis of Year 2014 budget.

Hamzat explained that it was difficult for
the state government to embark on the
previous alignment for the construction
of the bridge because of its huge
requirements and expenses, adding that
the previous alignment which is eight kilometers, will cost the state government
N320 billion.

According to him, "And to construct a
kilometer of that bridge is about N40
billion, so the issue is that we also need to
factor the cost of demolishing the 318
buildings into the project. A lot of these
buildings are beautiful houses."

He expressed concern that larger per cent
of these buildings do not have genuine
building permit.

"We need to remember that when
motorists make use of the bridge, they will
need an exit route. And this route will
require motorists to drive through a road
that will afford them to link at Ijede in
Ikorodu and another link to the Lagos- Ibadan expressway," Hamzat said.

Speaking on the appropriation for Lagos
State University, LASU, Akabueze said:
"We have N9.2 billion that would be spent
on LASU in 2014. Out of the N9.2 billion,
N2.6 is for capital expenditure while N6.6
billion is for recurrent expenditure."

The commissioner added that the state
budgeted the sum of N2.7 billion for
Adeniran Ogunsanya College of
Education, AOCOED, Ijanikin, Micheal
Otedola College of Primary Education,
MOCOPED; N1.2 billion and Lagos State Polytechnic, LASPOTECH; N3.6 billion.

"LASU is not funded by the tuition fees
paid by the students. It is not possible in
today's world to get quality tertiary
education at N25,000. Many Nigerians pay
more than that to fund their children's
education at the primary education level. Government around the world spends
more money funding basic education
than tertiary education. This is to create
platform for more people to be
educated," he said.

Regent University student buys cannabis with tuition fee

A Nigerian undergraduate student who used
his tuition fee to buy hard drug has been
arrested for drug trafficking, the National
Drug Law Enforcement Agency said in a
statement on Saturday.

NDLEA said the suspect, Udiomeh Kufre Ita,
a student of the faculty of Management
Sciences at the Regent University in Ghana,
was arrested at the weekend at the Murtala
Muhammed International Airport in Lagos.
He was caught with 1.745 kilogrammes of dried weeds that tested positive for cannabis popularly called hemp.

The suspect was found in possession of the
drug during the inward screening of passengers on an Africa World Airlines flight
from Accra, Ghana, said NDLEA Lagos Airport Commander, Hamza Umar. Continue...

"An undergraduate student was found in
possession of two parcels of cannabis
weighing 1.745kg during routine search of
passengers. The drug was hidden inside his
bag containing personal effects. He was
immediately arrested and the case is under investigation," Hamza was quoted as saying.

"The suspect who reportedly gained admission into the faculty of Management
Sciences at the Regent University is currently assisting narcotic investigators
assigned to the case," NDLEA said in a
statement signed by its spokesperson, Mitchell Ofoyeju.

In his confessional statement, Ita was
quoted as saying that he used his tuition
fees in purchasing the drug found on him.

"I spent my school fees on cell phone,
smoking hemp and attending night clubs. I
bought a cell phone for N107,000 and spent
my school fees recklessly. I thought I could
make enough profit from the sale of
cannabis to offset the deficit in my tuition. I bought each parcel of hemp for 220 Ghana
cedi. I did not know what came over me and
I am afraid to go to my parents. My father is
a retiree," the suspect was quoted as saying.

NDLEA said Ita hails from Akwa-Ibom State
but grew up in the Federal Capital Territory
(FCT) Abuja.

Dirty Secrets of Jonathan's "Minister" Obanikoro Comes Out

It is becoming obvious that President Goodluck Jonathan has a penchant for appointing men and woman with questionable antecedents into public offices. And, funny enough, it seems the SSS is even afraid to do proper screening on anyone he decides to give a political appointment.

How do you explain a situation where security agencies cleared Stella Oduah as a Minister only for us to find out later that she forged an MBA from an institution that do not even offer such programme?

Now a man cleared by the same security agencies to become a Minister is involved in another mess...

Frothing with potentially lethal allegations, a letter to relevant authorities had questioned Senator Obanikoro’s declarations in the affidavit of personal particulars, sworn to at a High Court Registry on 14 December 2006, and the details of his residency in the United States.

The then Action Congress, AC, alleges that the claims made in INEC Form CF001, a copy of which is in possession of this medium, amounts to perjury. Specifically, Obanikoro is deemed to have given a false response to the question: “Did you change nationality in the past?”

His answer, according to the form, was: “N/A” (not applicable). Same response was given to next question: “Have you voluntarily acquired the citizenship of another country? (If yes, what country?)”

The AC, however, contends that Musiliu Obanikoro holds an American passport No.02531795, issued in Chicago on 16 June 1995. A copy of the description page, obtained by this medium, bears Obanikoro’s photograph and the name Onikoro Mohammed Musiliu Olatunde, which the PDP candidate has admitted he once bore.

“In other words, the holder of the said United States of America Passport, Number 025317195 issued in Chicago on the 16th of June 1995, MUHAMMED MUSILIU OLATUNDE ONIKORO is a citizen of the United States of America. The distinguished Senator has not only changed his nationality in the past, he has also voluntarily acquired the citizenship of another country, which country is the United States of America.

Interesting to note that from the Senator’s affidavit, Mohammed Musiliu Olatunde Onikoro, is his birth name.” observed the AC.

Curiously, Obanikoro once denied bearing Onikoro. As the Lagos Island Local Government chairmanship candidate of the defunct Grassroots Democratic Movement in 1997, Obanikoro was dragged before the Local Government Election Tribunal by Babajide Damazio, candidate of the defunct United Nigeria Congress Party (UNCP).

Though unsuccessful, Damazio sought the disqualification of Obanikoro, who had been declared winner by the defunct National Electoral Commission of Nigeria (NECON). In a petition to the tribunal, Damazio alleged that Obanikoro, the first respondent, was ineligible. The second respondent in the suit, with No EP/LND/2/97, was NECON.

One of the grounds on which Damazio based his petition was Obanikoro’s alleged possession of an American passport with the name Muhammed Musiliu Olatunde Onikoro. Damazio also alleged that Obanikoro was called or known as Musiliu Olatunde Onikoro or Mohammed Musiliu Olatunde Onikoro until 15 March 1997, when the election held.

In his defence, Obanikoro denied holding an American passport as well as ever bearing Onikoro. “That whilst it is true that the 1st respondent lived in the United States of America for several years and did acquire his post-secondary education in that country, and was qualified to voluntarily acquire the citizenship, the 1st respondent denies ever acquiring the citizenship of the United States of America and puts the petitioner to the strictest proof thereof...The 1st respondent denies bearing the name Mohammed Musiliu Olatunde Obanikoro as alleged in paragraph 4 (c) of the petition,” the tribunal’s judgement read in part.

Next to attract AC’s suspicion were Obanikoro’s date of birth and age attained on his last birthday. In the copy of INEC form CF001 available to TheNEWS, Obanikoro recorded his date of birth as 28-7-54 and age as 52.

But supplying a slew of documents, including Obanikoro’s official Nigerian passport, diplomatic passport, American passport, birth registration, educational and marriage records, the AC is contending that the PDP candidate was born on 28 July 1960. “It is interesting to note that the distinguished Senator, in his application form for his official passport, in which application form he attached the same passport photograph, as was attached to the affidavit in support of his personal particulars, he, in his own writing, put his date of birth as the 28th of July 1960,” the AC said. The party added that Obanikoro’s official passport Number F0004473, issued on 26 September 2001, in the name of Musiliu Olatunde Mohammed Obanikoro, and his diplomatic passport Number D0002471, issued on 11 October 2001 bear 28 July 1960 as his date of birth.

Also, marriage records obtained from Harris County, Hennepin, Texas, United States, appear to strengthen AC’s position. According to the records, Obanikoro (then Onikoro) married one Jewel M. Weller, aged 18. The records put Obanikoro’s date of birth as 28 July 1960.

“If the distinguished Senator was born in 1954 as he alleges, a fact most improbable, it follows that he was 19 years of age when he finished primary school, and the next year enrolled in Texas State University at 20 in 1981 and married Jewel Weller a year later at the age of 21. It is also most improbable, going by the records, that he completed his primary education at the age of 19 and enrolled in the Texas Southern University four years later, two years after his marriage to Jewel Weller in 1982,” the AC argued. A copy of the form Obanikoro filled for admission into the university also gave his date of birth as 28 July 2004 and his address as 7 Idoluwo Street, Lagos. Curiously, the same address is borne by his registration of birth, which records Obanikoro’s date of birth as 28 July 1954.

Also caught in the headlights of AC’s scrutiny were Obanikoro’s certificates issued by Texas Southern University, where he obtained two degrees in 1981 and 1986 respectively. The PDP flagbearer’s certificates bear the name Obanikoro, though school records only have Musiliu Onikoro as an alumnus. The bearer, who was issued an American passport in 1995, had been issued a Nigerian international passport, with No. B2229384, in 1991. The photograph in the passport is also that of Senator Obanikoro.

To the AC, the senator’s accusers, the certificates bearing Obanikoro could only have been issued by authorities other than the university’s. “How could the distinguished Senator have obtained a degree or degree certificates in the name of Obanikoro when both his school and public records in the United States and, indeed Nigeria from birth, marriage through school and subsequent naturalisation all read Onikoro. The Texas Southern University admits that one Onikoro passed through its portals, but have no records of an Obanikoro doing same about the time in question. The certificates presented by the distinguished Senator, we can safely conclude, are forged,” wrote the AC.

Attracting similar attention is Obanikoro’s failure to participate in the compulsory one-year National Youth Service scheme, prescribed for graduates of Nigeria’s tertiary institutions. While the scheme provides for exemption of persons above the age of 30, the provision was not made until August 1985. Obanikoro, alleged the AC, did not provide INEC with an evidence of participation, implying non-participation, an action, under the law, that makes him ineligible for employment in Nigeria as well as being liable–upon conviction–to a fine of N2,000 or to a jail term of one year or both.

The AC contends that Obanikoro could not have been exempted because he graduated in May 1984, when he was 24 years old. The party also contends that even if the senator was born in 1954, as his recent birth particulars suggest, he could still not have been exempted because the provision came into effect in 1985. “Indeed, the distinguished Senator is not only ineligible for the office of Governor of Lagos State, but must immediately vacate his seat as a Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and make himself available forthwith to the National Directorate of the National Youth Service Corps Scheme, for service under the scheme,” insists the AC.

Other documents made available to this magazine contain suggestions that Obanikoro may have had a crime-coated past. While in the US, revealed the documents, Obanikoro used multiple social security numbers, despite the country’s laws permitting the use of just one for a lifetime. But a staff of the public affairs unit of the United States Information Service (USIS) in Lagos told this magazine a person may be issued another social security number if his citizenship is revoked and then restored. She described this as an “extraordinary circumstance.” But there is no evidence to suggest that Obanikoro’s citizenship was revoked at any time.

For instance, when he lived in Chicago, documents show that his date of birth was given as 28 July 1960. His social security number was 454-15xxxx.

Other numbers used were 464-51xxxx, 454-61xxxx, 464-15xxxx and 035-58xxxx, which was also used by one M. Morrophat Onikoro.

Banker Arrested For Robbery…..Gives Robbers Information About Customers [PICTURED]

A contract staff attached to the Item Street branch of Diamond Bank Plc, Owerri, Mr. Daniel Chibueze Meshach is presently cooling his heels in the detention cell of the Imo state Police command for allegedly masterminding an armed robbery operation in the state.

Daniel Meshach, 27, from Isingwu Ofeme-Ohuhu in Umuahia North council area of Abia state and two others were arrested by men of the Ambush Squad of the Imo state police command after a fierce confrontation with the Police as they tried to escape the scene of crime after successfully robbing their victim of cash and valuables at Umurim, Nekede, in Owerri West Council area of Imo state.

Lamenting his fate, the very eloquent banker confessed to the crime. He agreed he planned the operation and picked the victim of the robbery himself, apparently through privileged information. He blamed his involvement in armed robbery on peer pressure and pleaded to be given a second chance.

Also arrested and paraded alongside the banker was one Emmanuel Chisom, a student of the Federal Polytechnic Nekede, Owerri, who confessed to supplying three firearms for the robbery operation.
Taking questions from newsmen, Chisom denied being the current leader of a dreaded campus cult group as alleged, noting that he was deposed last year, as leader of the Vikings confraternity, after what he termed a ‘mutiny’. It is widely believed that apparent cult involvement may have drawn the banker into crime.
Two locally made pistols were also recovered from them. However, the Imo state Police command has assured that the banker and his gang would soon be charged to court on completion of investigations into the matter.

However, recently, Marilyn-Joan Obiora, a senior staff of Diamond Bank, was prosecuted by the EFCC at the Federal High Court in Umuahia, Abia State. Obiora’s stunts were exposed in a petition by Stephen Inegbu, the bank’s zonal security supervisor in Port Harcourt. His petition was inspired by the bank’s inspection unit, which discovered that Obiora, abetted by four other staff of the bank, made fraudulent withdrawals totaling N125.6 million in three installments. Obiora and colleagues withdrew N26 million, N91.6 million and N8 million.

Like Obiora, the duo of Ebele Okoh and Charles Amadi, also of Diamond Bank, also faced allegations before the Karu Chief Magistrate’s Court, Abuja. Okoh and Amadi of the bank’s Zone 4 branch in Abuja were accused of withdrawing N250,000 from a customer’s account. Police prosecutor, Garba Mohammed, explained that Okoh and Amadi scanned the signatures of some customers, with the intention to use them for withdrawals. The suspects did not go far in their scheme before they ran out of luck. By then, they had withdrawn N250,000 from the account of one L. A. Mittee through one Amaechi Josiah, who is also being tried for alleged theft in the same court.


Seven Gay Men Arrested In Bauchi

According to a report by Channels TV, seven men appeared in court in Bauchi on Wednesday, Jan. 22, on charges of being involved in same-sex relationships.
The case drew thousands of protesters to the court, who threw stones at the men as they were being transported back to prison after the trial, as security forces fired into the air to disperse the angry crowd.
The men were arrested by the Bauchi State Sharia Commission for allegedly engaging in homosexual activities, acts that contravene the Islamic laws which the state had been operating under since 2001.
The men were named as Shehu Adamu, Yusuf Adamu, Aliyu Dalhatu, Abdulmalik Tanko, Usman Sabo and Hazif Sabo Abubakar and Ibrahim Marafa. Continue...
It was the first case since President Goodluck Jonathan signed a bill that criminalises same-sex relationships, defying Western pressure over gay rights and provoking criticism from the United States.

The bill, which contains penalties of up to 14 years in prison and bans gay marriage, same-sex “amorous relationships” and membership of gay rights groups, was passed by the National Assembly last May but Jonathan had delayed signing it into law until early January.

At Thursday’s trial, the prosecuting lawyer said the case was a direct result of the recently-passed law.

“This is further to the law against homosexuals which was signed by the President. It has to be implemented. People caught breaking this law must be prosecuted accordingly,” said Danlami Ayuba.

The trial was adjourned to January 27.

Drama in House as APC Reps Member Defects to Labour Party

Former Leader of the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) caucus in the House of Reps, Opeyemi Bamidele, on Thursday formally informed the House that he is no longer a member of ACN which is now APC. 
He has joined the Labour Party. He told members that his reason for leaving APC dated back to the start of merger talks among the defunct ACN with CPC and ANPP. Bamidele added that he opposed the merger from the beginning and did not wish that “my party, the ACN,” should be part of the merger.

As he decamped, Labout Party and PDP Reps members were seen congratulating Bamidele on his decision.

But in his reaction, Minority Leader in the House of Reps, Hon Femi Gbajabiamila, said...
“Let me state that Bamidele was not in the initial numerical configuration that gave birth to the majority status of the APC about two months ago. From the record of the APC House Caucus, his name had been deleted long before his official communication of defection today. 
"I wish to reaffirm that the majority status of the APC status remains intact.”

STUDENTS ON RAMPAGE! SEE Live Photos From the riot At Lagos State University, LASU today!.[PHOTOS]

They disrupted the university’s second semester examination, destroying properties in the process and even stoning their University Vice Chancellor Prof. John Obafunwa as he made to escape their wrath.
According to reports, the riot started when their VC decided not to open the registration portal for over 2,000 students who were yet to register their second semester courses as exams was to begin Thursday.
A cross section of students chasing the Vice Chancellor
According to the students, only 708 were able to register before the portal was shut again leaving, 1292 students to their fate.


When the students union government went to plead on behalf of the students, the VC was reported as saying those yet to register are insignificant and would automatically have to carry the session over, a statement which infuriated the students and they decided to take laws into their hands.

 

They started a riot, destroyed properties in the school and threw sticks and stones at the Vice Chancellor’s convoy as he made to escape through an alternative route beside Conoil Filling station.

UPDATE: President Jonathan Finally Goes After Mallam Sanusi

For daring to expose corruption in President Jonathan's government, Sanusi is now in big trouble...

Following its decision to "deal with" the CBN Governor, Mallam Sanusi Lamido, The presidency has issued a query to him demanding an explanation for some of the donations the CBN has made under his watch to some universities and organisations. This is the first step to deal with the "stubborn man"!

Here's what a source close to Jonathan said about Sanusi:
“This man is simply playing a dangerous political game. He openly romances the opposition and attacks the integrity of his employers. Do an analysis of the CBN governor’s speeches at a birthday colloquium of a notable opposition political leader in the South-west last year as well as what he said at the book launch of the spokesman of the main opposition party in Abuja, and that will show you the mindset of a man who is supposed to be the chief economic adviser of the federal government.”
A top presidency official, who sought not to be named, confided in THISDAY that the federal government was forced to issue the query as a result of its concern over Sanusi's activities, which have portrayed him as a man working to undermine the administration of President Goodluck Jonathan.

According to him, Sanusi has engaged in what he described as unprecedented politicisation of his office as well as serial infractions of regulations governing the operations of the central bank.

He said the presidency was worried by the way and manner Sanusi had been donating money to communities and institutions in the name of the central bank without adherence to due process.

The source claims that Sanusi has been holding meetings with politicians, especially the opposition parties and making statements capable of undermining the integrity of the nation’s financial institutions.

But all these allegations are coming after Sanusi rebuffed the president, saying only the Senate could remove him from office by a two-thirds vote as required by the constitution of Nigeria.

UPDATE On LASU Protest: University Shuts Down Indefinitely

Following violent protests by students of Lagos State University (LASU), the institution's management has with immediate effect shut down the widely-respected state-owned university indefinitely.
"In the wake of the violent protest by some affected students of Lagos State University (LASU) over the closure of the university portal for registration of courses for rain semester 2012/2013 examination, the university management has decided to shut down the university indefinitely
"Also, examinations have been put off till further notice. With this decision, students are expected to vacate the university premises until further notice."
This decision was contained in a bulletin, dated 23rd January, 2013.

Students of the institution had staged a protest on Wednesday, 22nd, January over the closure of the portal but the protest became violent on Thursday. Sources told MrTolulope.com that some of the students went as far as physically attacking the Vice Chancellor and even damage his vehicle.
Violence doesn't resolve anything. I thought students should know this and learn to dialogue at all times.
