Falz, now popularly known by industry watchers as a ‘Music Activist’, had earlier hinted fans that he would release an album titled ”Moral Instruction” on January 15.

He said of the album, “There is a dire need for us to redefine the concept of humanity and morality.

“There is a pressing need for re-education and re-orientation of the people, for this is the only way we can restore sanity.”

Falz, a lawyer turned singer, began his professional career as a music artiste in 2009, and currently owns an independent record label called Bahd Guys Records.

He is the son of Femi Falana (SAN), a Nigerian human rights activist and lawyer.

The music artiste came to limelight after his song “Marry Me” (featuring vocals from Poe and Yemi Alade) won him a nomination in the “Best Collaboration of The Year” category at the 2015 Nigeria Entertainment Awards.

In 2018, Falz released a controversial audio/visual song “This Is Nigeria”, a mock-up of American rapper Childish Gambino’s “This Is America”.

It addresses societal issues prevalent in Nigeria, including police Special Anti-robbery Sqaud brutality, codeine abuse, and killings in some parts of the country.

The video of the song highlights the nation’s issues especially violence and corruption in politics, policing, and religious bigotry.
The song was, however, banned by National Broadcasting Commission.

TOBIWHITE:
I'm not sure of the terms they use, but let me use simple English
.com or .ng or .com.ng are just like suffix or say an attribute, it restricts the domain to a particular section, location or say a type of organisation.
.com means communication and that's the main purpose of a website I think, but other attributes added will some sort of restriction to the website. Examples: .ng means its majorly for Nigerians or its located in Nigeria or informations and products on the sites will benefits Nigerians. .edu simply means the website is an educational website, .uk is for united kingdom, .net means its a networking site, .za is for south Africa .TV means its a telecommunication or television website and so on. I believe the website designers should be able to explain better.
I stand to be corrected.

OGA, .com is .commercial not communication. Wetin u nor know, u dey teach. see ur life?

Super Eagles manager, Gernot Rohr has released a 23-man squad to face the Bafana Bafana of South Africa in an AFCON qualifier match which will take place November 17.

In-form striker Victor Osimhen and midfielder Mikel Agu are back in the Super Eagles. See full list below:

https://www.asbgistng.com/2018/10/afcon-qualifiers-rohr-releases-23-man.html

The Super Eagles striker, who's had to overcome several hurdles since moving to England, will heave a sigh of relief after converting off a training ground routine.

Isaac Success scored his first English Premier League goal as Watford saw off Huddersfield Town 3-0.

Although he has recorded two goals in cup games for the Hornets since joining from Granada in a record deal as a highly rated prospect in the summer of 2016, the striker has yet to find the back of the net in the top-flight.

But on Saturday afternoon, with his side already two goals ahead, the Nigeria international wrap up the victory, finishing off a perfect free kick move with ten minutes left of regular time.

Javi Gracia continued to shy away from his trusted 4-4-2 system to deploy Success as his side's lone striker.

His persistence with the tactic yielded dividends again as Roberto Pereyra and Gerard Deulofeu both converted solo efforts to put them two-goal ahead within nine first-half minutes before Success' late effort - on his 29th Premier League outing - to make the maximum points safe.

The 22-year-old has now scored three goals in 12 games across all competitions for seventh-placed Watford.
Next up for the Vicarage Road outfit is a trip to St James' Park to take on Newcastle United next Saturday.

The forward will hope to have done enough to become Gracia's first choice central striker, ahead of captain Troy Deeney and Andre Gray.

Coach of the Super Eagles of Nigeria Gernot Rohr was at the receiving end of the wrath of pick pockets at the end of the Aiteo Cup Final between Enugu Rangers and Kano Pillars.

The Enugu side came from three goals down to draw 3-3 before finally winning 4-3 on penalties much to the dismay of fans of Kano based side Kano Pillars who were 17 minutes away from becoming champions.

Rohr watched the game live at the Stephen Keshi Stadium in Asaba, Delta State Nigeria and according to the coach his pocket was picked on his way out of the stadium as various people make their way out after the game.

Valuables like his smartphone and immigration documents were among the items picked from the Franco-German coach ‎and he has pleaded with whoever is behind it to return them as a handsome reward awaits whoever returns the items.

“I lost my wallet containing my Samsung 8 and my visa visiting card just after the Aiteo Cup final in Asaba on Wednesday.

“I was trying to exit the stadium but the fans were many pushing and running up and down. So I didn’t know the time my wallet was stolen. I am appealing to whoever took it to please return it to me because I am also a Nigerian by working with our darling Super Eagles.

“The documents are very vital for my work with the Eagles and the Nigeria Football Federation. We still have many qualifying and other friendly matches to play and I won’t be able to do the work without the items. I will personally reward whoever helps find the wallet with the items in it,” Rohr revealed to Lagos based Newspaper, SportingLife.

President Muhammadu Buhari has showered praises on former President, Goodluck Jonathan, saying he holds his predecessor in high esteem for accepting defeat in 2015.

Speaking on Thursday night when he hosted members of the Kannywood entertainment industry to a dinner at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, the president said that for that singular act, Jonathan will always remain in his mind.

He said, “I’ll continue to hold the former president, Jonathan in high esteem as a result of that singular act.”

Speaking further, Buhari declared that the activities of the Boko Haram sect in the Northern part of the country would soon become a history.

He said: “It’s totally wrong for any believer in God to kill innocent people either in the Mosque, Church or the marketplace.

“You can’t be shouting Allahu Akbar (Allah is Great), Allahu Akbar, and killing innocent citizens and destroying property all in the name of God.

“It is either you don’t know what you are saying or you don’t even believe in the existence of God Almighty. God has nothing to do with injustice.

“So, now we are confronting them and by the grace of God, we will destroy them,” explains the president who will be facing stiff opposition from PDP’s Atiku in the coming months.

This was what ex-president, Olusegun Obasanjo said about his former vp, Atiku Abubakar in his book, 'My Watch'.

"What I did not know, which came out glaringly later, was his parental background which was somewhat shadowy, his propensity to corruption, his tendency to disloyalty, his inability to say and stick to the truth all the time,a propensity for poor judgment, his belief and reliance on marabouts , his lack of transparency, his trust in money to buy his way out on all issues and his readiness to sacrifice morality, integrity, propriety truth and national interest for self and selfish interest"

You can find this on 'My Watch', Volume 2, Pages 31- 32.

God help Nigeria!
