Foreign Affairs / Australian State To Legalise Assisted Suicide by dridowu: 12:01pm On Jun 10, 2016 |
The Australian state of Victoria could soon become the first state to legalise voluntary euthanasia for people suffering from serious and incurable conditions. A committee has recommended the Victorian Government legalise assisted suicide. If the landmark recommendations, handed down by the Parliament’s Legal and Social Issues committee, are adopted, Victoria would become the first Australian state to legalise assisted dying. The report handed down, which came after 10 months of investigation by the committee, made 49 recommendations covering assisted suicide. Included in the recommendations were changes to the Crime Act designed to protect doctors who act within assisted dying legislation. “The Government should introduce legislation to allow adults with decision-making capacity, suffering from serious and incurable conditions that are at the end of life to be provided assistance to die in certain circumstances,’’ it said. The report specified that a doctor must first prescribe a lethal drug which the patient could take without further assistance unless the patient is physically incapable of doing so. “It is essential that the patient must be experiencing enduring and unbearable suffering that cannot be relieved in a manner of which they deem tolerable,’’ the report said. In giving evidence to the committee, cancer patient Sue Jensen, said that she hoped the report would make recommendations to allow her to make her own decisions about the end of her life. “I just want people who disagree with this to respect it is my health, I am the one that has to live this. “I am coming to the end of my time and want to just end peacefully and not with further trauma for myself or my family,’’ she said. Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews revealed in June 2015 that he would not support voluntary euthanasia but conceded momentum to legalise it was building. http://www.pmnewsnigeria.com/2016/06/09/australian-state-to-legalise-assisted-suicide/ lalasticlala Mynd44 |

Politics / Dickson: We Can No Longer Fund Niger Delta Varsity by dridowu: 8:41pm On Jun 09, 2016 |
The Governor of Bayelsa State, Mr Seriake Dickson, on Thursday disclosed that the state government could no longer continue funding the state-owned Niger Delta University in Wilberforce Island, Amassoma. Dickson, who spoke during a meeting with the Governing Council and principal officers of NDU in Government House, Yenagoa, noted that he could not sustain the existing funding system owing to the present poor financial standing of the state. He called on the striking workers and management of the only state-owned university in the state to be more resourceful and innovative in generating revenue for the institution. The governor noted that a situation where the state government’s monthly subvention of about N480 million is spent on only the university’s recurrent expenditure was ‘unsustainable’. He harped on the need for the University leadership to be prudent in the use of funds, with a view to enabling the institution gain some degree of financial autonomy. Dickson called on the Academic Staff Union of University, ASUU, to call off the ongoing strike action caused by the sharp drop in state revenues. http://www.thisdaylive.com/index.php/2016/06/09/dickson-we-can-no-longer-fund-niger-delta-varsity/?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=facebook 1 Like

Celebrities / Nigerian Promoter Sues Jay Z Over Canceled Rihanna Concert by dridowu: 10:31am On Jun 08, 2016 |
Rihanna and her label boss Jay Z are reportedly facing legal action from a Nigerian concert promoter amid allegations the singer cancelled a 2013 gig and kept the fee. Megalectrics boss Chris Ubosi claims he arranged the gig for May, 2013 with two people who introduced themselves as representatives for Rihanna, Jay Z, and his Roc Nation firm. The two parties reportedly agreed for the 28-year-old singer to perform a 65-minute set for $425,000 (€373,000), and Ubosi made three advanced payments, totalling $160,000 (€140,000). He then received a request from Rihanna's team seeking to postpone the show, which Ubosi agreed to, as long as the pop star publicised the new date on her social media accounts, reports TMZ. However, the rescheduled concert never happened, and now Ubosi has filed suit against the two stars and Roc Nation executives in a bid to reclaim his funds after his initial requests went unanswered. Rihanna's management officials have yet to comment on the lawsuit, but sources close to the star tell TMZ the singer was unaware of the arranged gig and never accepted any money for the purported show, leading them to believe Ubosi had fallen victim to a scam. http://m.rte.ie/entertainment/2016/0607/793905-rihanna-and-jay-z-sued-over-axed-gig/ Mynd44 lalasticlala

Politics / Corrupt Former Hampstead Cashier Stole £157m In Nigerian Government Role by dridowu: 4:40pm On Jun 07, 2016 |
A former Nigerian state governor who lived in Hampstead defrauded some of the world’s poorest people of £157m faces having his assets seized. James Ibori, 57, was jailed for 13 years in 2012, but he’s yet to pay back a penny because of delays amid allegations of corruption against the CPS. Ibori, formerly of Westover Hill, worked as a cashier in Wickes before a meteoric rise in the regime of President Sani Abacha, having started as a policy consultant. He blew millions on luxury homes, a £12.6m private jet, school fees for his children, first-class travel and exclusive hotels. He owned a £600,000 fleet of armoured Range Rovers, a £120,000 Bentley, and a £340,000 Mercedes Maybach that was shipped to his £3.2m mansion in Johannesburg. Described as one of Nigeria’s most influential and wealthy politicians, Ibori rigged lucrative state contracts with the help of his wife, mistress, sister, and an inner circle of corrupt officials. He sold £23m of state-owned shares in telecoms company Vee Mobile. Nigerian-born Ibori moved to the UK in the 1980s where he married his wife, Theresa, and worked as a cashier at Wickes in Ruislip. In 1990 the pair were convicted of stealing goods from the store and fined £300, and a year later Ibori was fined £100 for handling a stolen credit card before he moved back to his homeland. Ibori was elected as governor of Delta State in 1999 after tricking his way into power by hiding details of his previous convictions in the UK for theft and changing his age. In 2003, he was re-elected as governor for another four year term, after failing to disclose his previous convictions and financial status. During that time he systematically stole funds from the public purse, secreting them in bank accounts across the world. His methods included the inflation of State contracts, kickbacks and the transfer of cash from the State accounts by unscrupulous employees in his inner circle. Jailing the crooked politician for 15 years in 2012, Judge Anthony Pitts said: “It is during your two terms that you turned yourself in very short order indeed into a multi-millionaire through corruption and theft while in your powerful position as Delta state governor. “On any view just taking the Vee Mobile and the Challenger jet [the fraud totals] some £50m, but in light of other matters perhaps that is a ludicrously low and the figure may be in excess of £200m, it’s difficult to tell.” A confiscation hearing is underway, and is set to last three months. http://www.hamhigh.co.uk/news/crime-court/corrupt_former_hampstead_cashier_stole_157m_in_nigerian_government_role_1_4566923 Mynd44 lalasticlala

Travel / Ban Nigerians From Entering India, Says India Former Minister by dridowu: 12:44pm On Jun 07, 2016 |
Panaji: In what may trigger a fresh controversy, former Goa chief minister Ravi S Naik on Tuesday demanded the Centre to ban the Nigerians from entering India while alleging that they indulge in illegal activities. "The Nigerians come here in Delhi, in Bengaluru and do 'dadagiri' in the entire country. The Nigerians should be asked to leave India, we don't want Nigerian tourists. The Government of India should ban Nigerians from entering India," Naik told ANI. He further stated that if the Nigerians come to India to study then the state government and the police should keep a strict watch on them. "If they have come to study here, a watch should be kept on them to see whether they really study and go to colleges. They don't study, rather they indulge in illegal activities," he added. Referring to the Nigerians with the pejorative 'Negroes', the senior Congress leader also said that the Nigerians have been causing 'problems' in Goa as well other metropolitan cities. The Congress leader's remark comes just days after Goa Tourism Minister Dilip Parulekar sought stringent laws to deport Nigerians and Chief Minister Laxmikant Parsekar said that the people of the state are specifically not happy with them. Parulekar had said that the Nigerians create problems in Goa and sell drugs while just days after Parsekar said on 30 May that Goans were not happy with the attitude and lifestyle of the Nigerians living in the coastal state. The Goa Home Ministry had in 2014 during the monsoon session of the assembly referred to the Africans as 'Negroes', an error for which then chief minister Manohar Parrikar had to tender an apology after an outcry. http://www.deccanchronicle.com/nation/current-affairs/070616/ban-nigerians-from-entering-india-says-former-goa-cm-ravi-naik.html 2 Likes 1 Share
