Oh Dear! See What Boko Haram Did To This Little Girl -

I wonder how some people can be so heartless…all in the name of terrorism coated with religion.

Good thing is that Vice President Osinbajo has come to her rescue; Baby Aisha, a Boko Haram bombing victim in Maiduguri undergoes ‘successful surgery’ at the National Hospital in Abuja. Praise God!

Missed The Match? Watch Real Madrid 10 – 2 Rayo Vallecano (All Goals Highlight)

The away team threatened early on but could not recover from losing Triguero and Baena in the first half-hour, and the game quickly turned into a training exercise for the hosts.

Real Madrid suffered an early scare but eventually made numerical superiority tell at the Santiago Bernabeu, as they cruised to an 10-2 drubbing of nine-man Rayo Vallecano.

Sections of the home support whistled under-fire manager Rafael Benitez before kick-off and his players received similar treatment at half-time despite being 4-2 to the good against depleted opponents.

Gareth Bale turned a first-half brace into a four-goal haul, quelling the early discontent that had long subsided by the time Karim Benzema completed a hat-trick in the final minute.

Danilo gave Madrid a third-minute lead but quickfire efforts from Antonio Amaya and Jozabed had neighbouring Rayo dreaming of a famous triumph.

Those ambitions were undermined when Tito hacked into Toni Kroos to be sent off and, after Bale equalised, Raul Baena also received his marching orders – preceding a successful penalty from Cristiano Ronaldo.

Benzema opened and closed the second-half mauling, while Ronaldo headed a second and Bale made hay.

Madrid are now within two points of champions Barcelona, who wrapped up Club World Cup glory in Japan earlier on Sunday, but the bizarre nature of this rout is unlikely to bring many Benitez doubters onside.

8 thugs arrested for killing man in Lagos

The Lagos State police command arrested eight men over the weekend for allegedly murdering one Akeem Ajanaku who was attacked at Enu-Owa/Ido Olowu area of Lagos Island.
The suspects, Animashaun Akeem, Qudus Atakoro, Abduramon Onisemo, Muritala Oyejobi, Tabiu Mujib, Iyaniwura Idris, Tayo Oladimeji, and Segun Adeyemi, were arrested by the police at the scene of the murder, unfortunately, others escaped.
It was gathered that on November, 15, 2015, at about 1pm, thugs armed with cutlasses, axes, guns and other dangerous weapons attacked Akeem Ajanaku at Ido-Olowa/Enu-owa
According to  Supol Segun Adebayo, who reported the case at the Adeniji-Adele Central Police Station, Akeem Ajanaku, was rushed to the Lagos Island General Hospital by the police and other sympathizers; where he died.

Tayo Oladimeji, who was supposedly one of the suspects denied being involved. He said:
“I was at home sleeping on a Saturday morning when I heard my mum’s voice asking if I wont go to work.  Reluctantly, I got up from my bed and headed towards the bathroom to take my bath when I was arrested.’’
“I don’t know anything. I was in my shop that Monday when policemen came to arrest me, saying I was involved in last Sunday’s fracas on Lagos Island.   The only encounter that I had was when some unknown guys came to me at Oduduwa bus stop  and collected my wristwatch.
‘’Immediately I was arrested, I called my parents but  I couldn’t reach them and then police also seized my phone and brought me here (Lagos command)this morning. While I was in the police custody, I was told that Major and Paulo called my mobile phone. I don’t know the reason they  were calling me.”
The case has since been transferred to the Special Anti-Robbery Squad, SARS, Lagos State Police Command, for further investigation.

Stop Blogger from Redirecting Blogspot to Country Specific URLs

Let's say you're from France and have set up - just for examples sake - a blog called frenchlitgeek.blogspot.com where you share your thoughts and insights on French literature. Now, with Google's country specific redirection in Blogger, you might be redirected to frenchlitgeek.blogspot.fr when you try to access your site. The thing is, you perfectly liked the .com and didn't sign up for the .fr but you find yourself being directed there. Sure, your blog works and all but you also wonder why.

Why Did Google Do This?

Google has always supported the expression of views, and they stated as much on their official blog. In the post Free expression and controversial content on the web, which was published in 2007, it said "Our world would be a very boring place if we all agreed all the time. So, while people may strongly disagree with what someone says, or think that a particular newspaper is total nonsense, we recognize that each of us have the right to an opinion."

The post continued, "We also know that letting people express their views freely has real practical benefits. Allowing individuals to voice unpopular, inconvenient or controversial opinions is important. Not only might they be right (think Galileo) but debating difficult issues in the open often helps people come to better decisions".

While the company is clearly on the side of people freely expressing their opinions, they also believe that a line has to be drawn somewhere. Then again, for a company providing services in over 100 countries around the world and each with their own national laws and cultural norms, it's surely difficult for a company like Google to decide where to draw boundaries.

However, there are cases like child pornography which is illegal in just about any country where decisions are clear cut.

For a company whose products are "specifically designed to help people create and communicate, to find and share information and opinions across the world", how does Google deal with this challenge?

One of the most challenging areas where Google deals with issues regarding free expression is in Blogger, their content generation platform. Since Google can't check what you've written before you publish, they rely on active vocal users who are diligent in alerting the proper if a post borders on offensive. Then again, that in itself is a tricky issue as well because what one person may view as offensive, another might not.

In other words, it's always a work in progress with Google.

Fast forward to January 9, 2012 when Google announced it was making changes to the Blogger platform with regards to censorship. That said change would make use of a country specific domain to the Blogger platform. Doing this would allow Google to censor and remove content specific to a certain country.

In their announcement, Google said: "Migrating to localized domains will allow us to continue promoting free expression and responsible publishing while providing greater flexibility in complying with valid removal requests pursuant to local law. By utilizing ccTLDs, content removals can be managed on a per country basis, which will limit their impact to the smallest number of readers."

The move by Google come after pressure from countries like India that are working on hunting down content on social media sites which are considered inappropriate. Also, the move followed closely on the heels of Twitter's new censorship policies.

Since Google aims to "help people create and communicate, to find and share information and opinions across the world", it would be strange to take down a post that was just banned in a certain area. In essence, with country specific redirection, a piece of content can still be accessible by the world save for the country where it was blocked.

How Would Country Specific Redirection Affect Your Site?

Of course, not all site owners greeted the country specific URL change with open arms. A few of the issues brought up in regard to the change include:

1. A reduction in social stats. These are your Facebook Likes, Google +1s and so on from your blog posts. They might be reduced because the URLs from one blog post will be different depending on where your readers are from.

2. A problem with external commenting platforms. If you use Disqus - for example - for your comments section, then you might run into trouble because blog URLs will be different even if essentially the page being accessed is just the same.

3. A slight problem with AdSense earnings. Some users have complained about seeing a dip in their earnings when their pages are served through country specific domains.

4. An issue with link juice. You want external sites to link to you and not your country specific URL. But the issue here is that you can't control how others link to your page. They might use the top level domain or they might use the country code top-level domain.

Stop Blogger from Redirecting to Country-Specific Domains

If country specific redirection affects important factors such as traffic and link juice, and you need those in order to rank well, what can you possibly do? Well, thankfully, Google has provided a way to get around this. All you have to do is add an ncr/ to the end of the URL - ncr here stands for No Country Redirect. So basically, it goes frenchlitgeek.blogspot.com/ncr/.

That solution is great but do you want your users to always have to do that every time they visit your blog? To eliminate that hassle, and for the good of your site statistics, a simple redirection script will do the trick. Here's how:

1. Log in to your Blogger account.

2. Click on Template → Edit HTML.

3. Find the <head> tag in the HTML editor by opening the search box using Ctrl + F.

4. Copy the redirection code seen below after the <head> tag.

<script type="text/javascript">
var blog = document.location.href.toLowerCase();
if (!blog.match(/\.blogspot\.com/)) {
blog = blog.replace(/\.blogspot\..*?\//, ".blogspot.com/ncr/");
window.location.replace(blog);
}
</script>

5. Click on "Save Template".

And that's it! Whenever someone accesses your Blogger, they'll be taken to the top level domain rather than the country specific one.

Insert Adsense Inside Posts: After the First Paragraph

Want to know which part of your site or blog will bring you more profit? Add AdSense inside posts and then check out the famous Google AdSense heat map. Recent studies, however, showed that placing AdSense after the first paragraph of a site or blog is one of the best AdSense placement. Unfortunately, the default Blogger platform offered by Google doesn't allow placement of ad after the first paragraph. But because it has become one of the most profitable areas, plenty of webmasters have tried to take advantage of the best AdSense placement. How can you enjoy the same level of profit?

To solve the problem, we will just move the locations of the ads to be displayed by adding JavaScript and DIVs. With the following script, you can easily choose the paragraph or heading after which you want to inject the ad to. This way, you won't have to manually change every post.

How to Display AdSense Ads after the First Paragraph in Blogger

1. Log into your Blogger account, select your blog and click "Template" on the left side. Open the Template editor using the "Edit HTML" button. Once the editor has opened, click anywhere inside the code area and press the CTRL + F keys (or Command + F) on your keyboard to open the editor' search box. Search the following line:

<data:post.body/>

Note: You will find multiple occurrences of <data:post.body/>, stop at the second one or if you don't see any changes, test the last one.

2. Add the below DIVs in red before and after, like this:

<div id='adsense-target'><data:post.body/></div>

3. Copy the AdSense code that you want to show and use this tool to convert it into plain text. Just above the line that we just found, add the following HTML and replace the "ADSENSE CODE HERE" text with the converted ad code:

<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == &quot;item&quot;'>
<div id='adsense-content' style="display:block;text-align: center">ADSENSE CODE HERE</div></b:if>

Screenshot:

Align AdSense Left or Right

By default, the Google AdSense ad unit will appear in the middle just after the first paragraph. If you are unhappy with the results and want to wrap text around the ad, you can choose one of the options below:

a) Align AdSense to the left: change <div id='adsense-content' style="display:block;text-align: center"> with

<div id='adsense-content' style="display: inline-block;float: left;margin:15px 15px 15px 0px">

After modifying it, the ad will display something like this:

b) Align AdSense ad to the right of the content: change <div id='adsense-content' style="display:block;text-align: center"> with

<div id='adsense-content' style="display:inline-block;float:right;margin:15px 0px 15px 15px">

4. Finally, right after <div id='adsense-target'><data:post.body/></div> (step 2), add this script:

<script type='text/javascript'>
function insertAfter(addition,target) {
var parent = target.parentNode;
if (parent.lastChild == target) {
parent.appendChild(addition);
} else {
parent.insertBefore(addition,target.nextSibling);
}
}
var adscont = document.getElementById(&quot;adsense-content&quot;);
var target = document.getElementById(&quot;adsense-target&quot;);
var linebreak = target.getElementsByTagName(&quot;br&quot;);
if (linebreak.length &gt; 0){
insertAfter(adscont,linebreak[0]);
}
</script>

Note:
- To insert the ad after the second paragraph, change "0" from the line in red with "2".
- If you want to put AdSense just below the heading h2 or heading h3 of a post, replace br from &quot;br&quot; with h2 or h3.

5. Click "Save template" to save the changes and you're done.

With this trick, you can insert AdSense after the first paragraph automatically in Blogger with ease. Now it's your turn to decide which format works best on your site.

How to Add Font Awesome Social Icons in Blogger

It's near impossible to find a blog or site these days without at least one social media account to their name. Be it Twitter or Facebook, Instagram or Pinterest, or all of those for that matter, what's become increasingly clear is that social media helps increase your online presence.

Gone are the days when you used to rely on good old search engine results alone. These days, maybe you don't rank well in results for your keyword on Google or any other search engine, but you can launch a social media campaign that can hopefully give you the results that you want.

Essentially, your site and social media need to co-exist. One cannot live without the other, if you want another way of putting it. Social media is one of the best drivers of traffic on the internet, and if you want to increase your chances of being seen, then you have got to get an account on one or more platforms as long as it fits with your brand's identity.

Spreading Awareness of Your Social Media Presence

Once you've set up your social media accounts, you don't just leave it there to be discovered. Sure, you can make use of hashtags and communicate with industry leaders, but that's not enough to bring awareness to your customers. To let them know you have a presence on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Vine or Pinterest, you have to make use of the real estate on your website.

How exactly do you do that, you ask? Well, by means of social icons.

Social icons are those little images you see that represent a symbol associated with a particular social network. For example, social icons for Twitter usually feature a blue bird. If not that, then a lowercase letter T.

The presence of these images remind your viewers that they have other ways of being up to date with whatever you put out. Social media use is pretty high these days thanks to the immediacy of the medium as well as the fun factor. And more likely than not, your audience would want to know whether you're on any social network.

If you're on the Blogger platform, you can add these social media representations through Font Awesome social icons.

What is Font Awesome?

Font Awesome "gives you scalable vector icons that can instantly be customized - size, color, drop shadow, and anything that can be done with the power of CSS". In essence, it functions as a toolkit where you get access to more than 500 icons for use on your site - free of charge.

Now, if you've used social media icons before, you know that there are non-vector varieties. But those offered by Font Awesome are scalable vector icons, and in the long run, they are the better option for your site.

Why is that the case?

Well, a very good reason would be that images take time to load. Yes, these images are tiny but the point still stands. Plus, images tend to lose their quality as computer resolution increases. In other words, if you want your icons to load faster and have a nice, crisp and clean look, then you're better off with using the collection of Font Awesome. Also, the chance to customize your icons accordingly is definitely an attractive factor too.

Why you should start using Font Awesome?

Of the many providers out there, why stick with Font Awesome?

• Large collection of icons. You'll not only find social media icons here, but other traditional icons as well.
• CSS support. With CSS, you can adjust the icons according to what suits your site best. You can tinker with the colors, size, shadows and other components. This is something sorely lacking with non-vector images because you're stuck with the icon you chose.
• Speed. Vector images are lightweight and therefore load faster.
• Free. You don't have to pay a single thing when you use Font Awesome.

So now you know the importance of icons on your site, it's time to learn how to add Font Awesome icons in Blogger.

Adding Font Awesome Social Icons in Blogger

The adding of icons to your Blogger isn't rocket science. In fact, the process is pretty straightforward.
Here's what you have to do:

Add Font Awesome Stylesheet into Blogger

Follow the steps below to get Font Awesome working with your blog:
1. Download Font Awesome from the official page.
2. Copy the entire font-awesome directory into your project.
3. Open your Blogger dashboard, go to Template and press the Edit HTML button. Find the <head> tag then add this line of code referencing the location of your font-awesome.min.css stylesheet.

Or if you'd prefer the easiest method, add this line just below the <head> tag:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.4.0/css/font-awesome.min.css" />

4. Start playing with Font Awesome!

Using the Font Awesome Icons

After you get the steps in the previous section done, you're now ready to use Font Awesome in your blog. The first thing you need to do is add the social icons links to the HTML and delete the icons that you don't need anymore. This is a sample HTML that you can add:

<div id="fawesomeicons">
<a href="URL-HERE" title="Facebook" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><i class="fa fa-facebook"></i></a>
<a href="URL-HERE" title="Google Plus" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><i class="fa fa-google-plus"></i></a>
<a href="URL-HERE" title="Twitter" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><i class="fa fa-twitter"></i></a>
<a href="URL-HERE" title="Pinterest" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><i class="fa fa-pinterest"></i></a>
<a href="URL-HERE" title="Instagram" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><i class="fa fa-instagram"></i></a>
<a href="URL-HERE" title="Bloglovin" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><i class="fa fa-heart"></i></a>
<a href="URL-HERE" title="Tumblr" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><i class="fa fa-tumblr"></i></a>
<a href="URL-HERE" title="RSS" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><i class="fa fa-rss"></i></a>
</div>

In the above HTML code, we can see 8 separate social icons which can be recognized by looking at the link title attribute. For example, the first one is for Facebook.

To use the social icons, paste your URL where it says URL-HERE for each social icon you want to include. Put the link between the quotes and make sure to not remove any of the quotation marks.

If you want to remove a social icon, just delete that line of code starting with "<a href" and ending with "</a>".

Now, keep in mind that Font Awesome works anywhere with the <i> tag as it was designed to work with inline elements. Although you can use <span>, official documentation prefers the <i> option for brevity.

Font Awesome icons can be placed anywhere using the CSS prefix fa together with the name of the icon. For a list of social media icon names, you can refer to the official website of Font Awesome.

Let's say that you want to display a Youtube icon so you can link it to your official account on the platform. Find the Youtube icon on the list and click on it:

That will bring you to a page for Youtube where you will see this code:

To include the icon within the list, copy any line starting with "<a href" and ending with "</a> from the code above, paste where you want it to appear and replace the code starting with "<i class="fa " and ending with "</i>" with that of your chosen icon.

Finally, after adding the icon, the list will look like this:

<div id="fawesomeicons">
<a href="URL-HERE" title="Facebook" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><i class="fa fa-facebook"></i></a>
<a href="URL-HERE" title="Google Plus" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><i class="fa fa-google-plus"></i></a>
<a href="URL-HERE" title="Twitter" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><i class="fa fa-twitter"></i></a>
<a href="URL-HERE" title="Pinterest" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><i class="fa fa-pinterest"></i></a>
<a href="URL-HERE" title="Instagram" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><i class="fa fa-instagram"></i></a>
<a href="URL-HERE" title="Bloglovin" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><i class="fa fa-heart"></i></a>
<a href="URL-HERE" title="Tumblr" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><i class="fa fa-tumblr"></i></a>
<a href="URL-HERE" title="RSS" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><i class="fa fa-rss"></i></a>
<a href="URL-HERE" title="Youtube" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><i class="fa fa-youtube"></i></a>
</div>

Note: don't forget to change the title and add your URL between the quotes.

Once you've finished editing the icons, insert the code into a HTML/Javascript gadget by going to "Layout" and click on the "Add a gadget" link. If you're using WordPress, paste it in a Text widget.

Customize the Font Awesome Icons Using CSS

Suppose you want to make the icons a lot bigger than they currently are. That task is made simple with the use of CSS. Here's a sample code:

#fawesomeicons a {
    font-size: 16px;
    width: 30px;
    height: 30px;
    line-height: 30px;
}

To change the font size, increase or decrease the 16px value. Below are the values (30px) for the container's width and height which should always match. Increasing/decreasing these values, will increase/decrease the size of the container where is the font.

Here are some different styles for the font awesome social icons. In the CSS, look for the #background-color, #border-color, #font-color and #hover-color text so that you can know here to put the color codes. You can use this tool to generate the color code: Color Code Generator. If you don't know how to add CSS, follow this tutorial.

#fawesomeicons {
text-align: center;
}
#fawesomeicons a {
background: #background-color;
color: #font-color;
display: inline-block;
font-size: 16px;
width: 30px;
height: 30px;
line-height: 30px;
margin: 0 1px 6px;
}
#fawesomeicons a:hover{
background: #hover-color;
}

#fawesomeicons {
text-align: center;
}
#fawesomeicons a {
background: #background-color;
color: #font-color;
display: inline-block;
font-size: 16px;
width: 30px;
height: 30px;
line-height: 30px;
margin: 0 1px 6px;
-webkit-border-radius: 100%;
-moz-border-radius: 100%;
border-radius: 100%;
}
#fawesomeicons a:hover{
background: #hover-color;
}

#fawesomeicons {
text-align: center;
}
#fawesomeicons a {
border: 1px solid #border-color;
color: #font-color;
display: inline-block;
font-size: 16px;
width: 30px;
height: 30px;
line-height: 30px;
margin: 0 1px 6px;
}
#fawesomeicons a:hover{
background: #hover-color;
}

#fawesomeicons {
text-align: center;
}
#fawesomeicons a {
border: 1px solid #border-color;
color: #font-color;
display: inline-block;
font-size: 16px;
width: 30px;
height: 30px;
line-height: 30px;
margin: 0 1px 6px;
-webkit-border-radius: 100%;
-moz-border-radius: 100%;
border-radius: 100%;
}
#fawesomeicons a:hover{
background: #hover-color;
}

#fawesomeicons {
text-align: center;
}
#fawesomeicons a {
color: #font-color;
display: inline-block;
font-size: 23px;
margin: 0 6px 6px;
}
#fawesomeicons a:hover{
background: #hover-color;
}

Now, what if we want to change the background or font color of a specific icon? First, we need to identify the icon class which is just after the <i class="fa ..." and add it like this:

#fawesomeicons a .fa-facebook {
background: #background-color;
color: #font-color;
}

Here, we can change the background and color for the Facebook icon but we can do it for any icon you want. For example, let's add another rule for the twitter icon:

#fawesomeicons a .fa-facebook {
background: #background-color;
color: #font-color;

Hajj Stampede: We Used White Cloth Of Corpses To Cover Ourselves - Nigerian Survivor shares Real experience «

A survivor of the stampede in Mina, Saudi Arabia, has
narrated how he survived the incident.
Dahiru Shittu, one of the over 60,000 Nigerians attending
this year’s pilgrimage, was among the thousands of people
gathered in Mina for the devil stoning rite, part of the hajj
activities, when the stampede occurred.

‘”We were trapped in between narrow lane with iron wall
of tents on both sides of the road,” he told PREMIUM
TIMES in Makkah, Saudi Arabia. “There was no way
out, so people started scaling fences into tents of Algeria
and other Arab countries.”

Mr. Shittu, from Igabi Local Government Area of
Kaduna State, added that “My friend and I, who were
completely exhausted from the previous long distance
trekking from Arafat to Muztalifa where we spent the night
and set out that morning to Jamra, had no option than to
step on other weaker pilgrims to survive.
“You will see mother and parents leaving their children and
aged to survive. I was however, helped by an Arab man
to scale the fence into a tent.

“Many male and female pilgrims dead or alive were seen
Unclad. We that survived, had to scavenge for Ihram
(white cloth) of corpses to cover our unclothedness. Those of
us who were alive were gasping for survival in an
exhausted struggle, some of whom were later offered ice
block by some volunteers.”

“An Ethiopian pilgrim abandoned his mother who became a
‘ladder’ for those who scaled through fences to survive.
Many others too, were crushed to death in such a manner.”
The pilgrim lamented the security situation during the rite
saying there was not enough “security around or any rescue
team.”

There have been reports that the closure of two essential
gate, reportedly at the instance of the Saudi Royal family
who were receiving some visitors, was a major cause of
the stampede, a fact Mr. Shittu elaborates.
“If the gates of those tents from both sides of the road had
opened, the death toll would have been very minimal,” he
said. “But the Arabs closed the gates and continued to hit
the hands of any pilgrim with a metal as they attempted to
scale their fences to get free air.”

The survivor, who suffered an injury on his leg, lamented
the inadequate medical attention received by some survivors
saying, “I did not receive any medical attention from either
the Saudi, NAHCON (Nigerian officials) or Kaduna
authority despite my complaints to them.”
He said he saw corpses of many Nigerians from Lagos and
Sokoto whom he identified from their uniform.

“There was a woman who was carrying a baby and I am
not sure if she will survive because there were so many
bodies piled on top of her and the baby.”
No official figure has been announced by Nigerian
authorities of the number of casualties from the country.

However, Sokoto State has confirmed that at least nine of
its pilgrims were killed in the stampede while Taraba has
confirmed three. Saudi officials said at least 769 people
were killed in the stampede while over 900 people were
injured.

Lamenting his present state, Mr. Shittu said he “was
completely traumatized; in fact if there is anything beyond
being traumatized, that was how I felt because I thought it
was the end of the world.

“But that did not discourage me from wanting to come back
for Hajj again because this is part of the test of faith.”

Saraki Is Our Man, We Will Not Abandon Him – PDP Opens Up

If a man dumped your party, joined
another to defeat you in the general
election and you now turn around to
be fighting for the same man, there is
an agenda you are working to
achieve. That’s politics for you.

The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP,
has insisted that Senate President
Bukola Saraki is their man and is fit
for the office he is occupying; hence
they are not considering any
candidate to replace him.

PDP spokesman Olisa Metuh gave
their position: “Does the trial have
merit? When we see the merit of the
case, we will take position. But for
now, there is nothing like that.”

The PDP denied reports that it was
already looking for a senator from the
opposition party to replace Saraki,
who is currently under pressure to
resign from office following his trial
for false asset declaration by the Code
of Conduct Tribunal.
Speaking with Punch, Metuh said the
party still believed that the trial of
Saraki was political and that the PDP
would not think of abandoning the
Senate president until it sees the
merit of the case.

He added, “We have no candidate for
the office of the Senate President,
because we have a fit person
occupying the position for now.
“We are behind him and we can’t
abandon him just because he is
undergoing trial. Anybody can be put
on trial, but the question we should
ask is whether the trial is political or
not.”

Saraki, a former governor of Kwara
State, is currently facing a 13-count
charge of making false declaration as
a governor between 20013 and 2011.
Since his arraignment before the
tribunal, there had been speculations
that the PDP, which produced Saraki’s
deputy, Ike Ekweremadu, had been
scheming to replace him with one of
its senators.

Among those being touted as possible
replacements for Saraki are
Ekweremadu; a former Senate
President, David Mark; and a former
Governor of Akwa Ibom State,
Godswill Akpabio.

Nigeria’s two main labour unions –
Nigeria Labour Congress and Trade
Union Congress – on Saturday
demanded Saraki’s resignation on
moral grounds consequent upon his
trial at the CCT.

constituted.

emulate the Arsenal legends.”

Oberreut, a suburb in the south-west
of Karlsruhe in Germany. Aogo is
capable of playing either as a left

but Aogo announced that he would
only play for Germany.

Emir Sanusi Marries 18-Year-Old Princess Secretly

The Emir of Kano, Muhammadu
Sanusi II, has finally tied the knot
with his rumoured heartthrob,
Sa’adatu Barkindo-Musdafa, the
daughter of the Lamido of Adamawa,
Muhammadu Barkindo-Musdafa.
The 18-year old becomes the Emir’s
fourth wife. She only recently
completed secondary school.
In addition to his first wife, Sadiya,
who is the daughter of the late emir
of Kano, Ado Bayero, Mr. Sanusi has
two other wives — Maryam and
Rakiya.

The secret wedding was contracted in
a low-keyed ceremony in the town of
Yola on Friday.
Palace sources in Yola told PT that the
Wedding Fatiha held inside the palace
of the Lamido minutes after the
Jumma’at prayer.

Insiders say that the influential Emir
only sent out invitation to some
dignitaries across the country, as
Kano government officials sneaked
into Yola for the wedding fatiha to
avoid journalists.

The Kano State Governor, Abdullahi
Ganduje, was said to have acted as
the guardian for the groom, while his
Adamawa counterpart, Jibrilla
Bindow, played the role of the bride’s
guardian, who gave her hands out in
marriage to the monarch.

“His decision to take a new wife is in
line with Islamic injunction. Islam
allows having a maximum of four
wives for those who can treat all of
them equally and provide for a large
family,” said a top Kano state
government official who travelled to
Yola for the wedding.

A social commentator, Dan’Almajiri
Ibrahim, argued that in ancient times,
links between empires were tightened
by marriages among royals and nobles
across boundaries.
“So, the engagement of the Adamawa
princess to Emir Sanusi II may also be
a move to deepen royal bond between
Adamawa and Kano.

“You see, historically, both emirates
have similar origins in the 19th
Century Uthman Dan Fodio’s jihad.”
A reliable source say the young wife
will not move in with the Emir
immediately but after some time.

Chelsea had to battle back from two goals down in order
to salvage a point as they drew 2-2 with Newcastlein the

The England international scored his first
goals since returning from injury after
James Milner’s early strike, with Rudy
Gestede netting two of his own for the
visitors
Daniel Sturridge scored twice as Liverpool eased the
pressure on manager Brendan Rodgers with victory over
Aston Villa.

James Milner gave the hosts the lead inside two minutes
before combining with Sturridge after the break as the
England striker volleyed past Brad Guzan.
Rudy Gestede pulled one back for Tim Sherwood’s side
from close-range, but Sturridge looked to have sealed the
three points for the Reds as he finished with aplomb from
Philippe Coutinho’s backheel pass.

Gestede had other ideas, however, as he netted his second
of the match with a powerful header, but Rodgers’s side
hung on to register a first league win in five matches.

Download video : Leicester City 2 – 5 Arsenal [Premier League] Highlights 2015 / 16

Having not previously scored this season,
the Chile international excelled with three
goals at the King Power Stadium, with Theo
Walcott and Olivier Giroud also finding the
net

The last unbeaten record of the Premier League season
fell on Saturday as Arsenal came away from the King
Power Stadium with a 4-1 victory over Leicester City,
Alexis Sanchez roaring back into form with a hat-trick.

Claudio Ranieri’s side took the lead early in the game
when Jamie Vardy was released down the left and fired
home from a narrow angle but Theo Walcott exploited
his pace to equalise just five minutes later.

Alexis finally scored his first goal of the season to see the
Gunners through to half-time with an advantage and the
Chilean followed up just short of the hour when he headed
in from Mesut Ozil’s cross.

The Arsenal forward then sealed his hat-trick in the 81st
minute, skipping inside a defender to shoot long and low
into the bottom corner from 25 yards.
There was a consolation for Leicester late in the day
when Vardy scored his second of the match, a curling
finish after Arsenal failed to properly clear the ball, but
there was no question that the Alexis-inspired visitors
were going to lose control of the result. That much was
confirmed when Olivier Giroud swept in a fifth for
Arsene Wenger’s men at the death.

Woman hacks mother-in-law to death with an ax, says Satan asked her to also kill her mother and sister

Caroline Wanjiku has confessed to hacking her mother-in-
law Ann Nyambura to death in Kiambu county. She said
that Satan had asked her to also kill her mother and sister
but she didn't find them at home. The 29-year-old
reported to Thigio chief’s post on Monday, September 21,
saying visions of snakes coiling around her waist kept her up
at night.

"On Sunday night when I went to sleep, the snakes
visited me. They asked me to kill the three people
they kept asking for, but I prayed to God and slept
after they left. The following morning, they came
again and asked me to kill them. I do not know
what happened but I proceeded to the kitchen where
my mother-in-law was and killed her with an ax."

She said
She told the press, administration police and residents she
also intended to kill her mother and sister but did not find
them at her matrimonial home. "It is Satan who disturbs
my mind," said the woman whose husband, David Njenga,
works in Qatar.

She said she committed the crime while her father-in-law,
Ben Maara, was at a garage washing his car, and then
took a boda boda to her home.
Assistant chief James Mwaura said Wanjiku told her
father-in-law that she had killed his wife, and asked for
her mother and sister. "She went to the AP post to report
what she had done when she could not find her mother and
her sister," Mwaura said. "She has been taking tablets
which control her mental problem but no one knows what
happened. We are leaving everything to investigators."

Officers from Tigoni police station and crime scene
detectives from Nairobi county reported to the scene and
began a probe. They collected blood samples and the ax and
took statements from family members, but declined to
comment saying they were not authorised to address the
press.

Wanjiku was later transferred from the chief’s post to the
police station. Officers said she will undergo a mental check
at Mathari hospital. The body was taken to City mortuary

I have also been charged before the Code of Conduct tribunal - Tinubu

National leader of APC, Bola Tinubu says the current
trial of the Senate President, Bukola Saraki at the Code
of Conduct is nothing new to him as he was tried at the
same tribunal two weeks after leaving office as governor of
Lagos state. Speaking to newsmen after his Eid prayers at
the Dodan Barracks praying ground yesterday September
24th, Tinubu said


“After they discovered that my asset declaration had
some questions, they charged me to the tribunal. I
went and challenged them to show proofs. I was
later discharged and acquitted because there was no
evidence to prove their claim. It is only then I
accused the government of being selective. We have
to live by example and by our words.
We can’t be talking about it alone. We have to
work it without any iota of blackmail. I have been
through it. The second week I left office, I was
invited by the EFCC. I went there and answer
their questions. Later, I took them to court and I
won. The government officials are almost no longer
believable in this country. When one has a public
responsibility, they look at it as if the source of
wealth to steal and mismanage public funds and do
things that are not included in the democratic norms
and values. We cannot overlook a lot of things. We
cannot personalise a lot of things as if it is vendetta.
We have to endure, be patient, look for justice,
equity and balance society.” he said

Saudi prince arrested at L.A. compound for alleged sex crime

A Saudi prince was arrested at a hillside compound near
Beverly Hills on Wednesday Sept. 23 after being accused
of trying to force a worker to perform a sex act on him,
Los Angeles police said.
Police were called to the gated property in the Beverly
Glen area, within a gated community on Wallingford
Drive, after a caretaker at the home reported a
disturbance, officials said.

After officers interviewed people inside, a 28-year-old
man identified as Saudi prince Majed Abdulaziz Al-Saud
was arrested on suspicion of forced oral copulation of an
adult.

He was booked and freed on $300,000 bail Thursday
afternoon, jail records show. He could not immediately be
reached for comment.
LAPD Officer Drake Madison said Al-Saud was
booked after 4 p.m.

The LAPD has a consul liaison division that checks with
foreign nations' consulates regarding diplomatic immunity,
said Capt. Tina Nieto.
Police determined Al-Saud does not have immunity in this
case, she said.

Some foreign royalty do have diplomatic immunity, but it
depends on the dignitary's status in his home country’s
government and the level of the offense he commits in the
U.S., she said.

Jail records show Al-Saud is scheduled to appear in court
Oct. 19.
Neighbor Tennyson Collins said a resident reported seeing
a bleeding woman scream for help as she tried to scale the
property’s 8-foot-high wall Wednesday afternoon.

When Collins drove home from work after 1:30 p.m.,
police followed his car through the gates and onto the
property, which he described as a compound. The website
Zillow valued the 22,000-square-foot property at $37
million.
Officers escorted some 20 people out of the house, many of
them staff, Collins said.

Police said Al-Saud was renting the home. Collins said
various foreign nationals have been renting out the property
for weeks at a time over the last year but that the biggest
incident up to Wednesday had just been a raucous party or
two. One person who rented out the home stationed armed
guards at the gates, he said.

“Obviously neighbors aren’t happy about it, but it is
what it is,” Collins said of the international visitors.
