bgirl: Wow. I'm speechless. That last girl doesn't even know what is happening. She is play. This is just repulsive.

She'd keep playing till the old baba dialates her anus,...yuk (shudders)

bennieman: Davido‘s girl wins it for me. She‘s finer and hotter.

That davido girl friend na ashawo (just like in flavors song) Its more like she is more aware of her body. Her poses in the pix speaks volumes. The awareness in her eyes is what attracts men.

Abuja – The office of the First Lady of Nigeria Dame (Dr) Patience Goodluck Jonathan, has faulted the 2013 Forbes list of the world’s most powerful women.

In a communiqué issued, it was noted that the annual snapshot of the 100 women with the most impact conspicuously omitted the name of Nigeria’s number one female citizen.

This snobbery, error, or typographical mistake, casts doubt on the validity of the entire list.

According to the communiqué, Forbes, for instance, names an ordinary singer in the person of Beyonce on their list; a musician without any form of political power or position, while a figure of extreme magnitude as the first lady of 150,000,000 plus Nigerians is left out.

In terms of sheer wealth, the communiqué also noted, with the exception of the USA talk show host, Oprah Winfrey, the list fails again to take into account the worth of Nigeria, and by extension, the first family - of which the first lady is no less than one of the top pair.

For the sake of continued diplomatic relations with America, the office of the first lady has concluded plans to send a high powered women delegation to the offices of Forbes magazine in America with the mandate of correcting the error; if not in this list, in subsequent such lists to come.

Silly people, doesn't that make him lose the governorship sit. It only makes him more appetizing to APC.

francisbiz: The Nigerian national assembly and politicians generally amuse us with SACRILEGE: Girl-child marriage.

I have a dream:
That soonest the national assembly shall adopt the KILLING OF NEWBORN TWINS.
That the national assembly shall in the nearest future revisit SAME-SEX MARRIAGE.
That the national assembly shall pass a bill for every woman irrespective of marital status, to be sexually submissive to every male that so solicit, irrespective of the age of the male.
That soonest the national assembly shall pass a bill for the GIRL-CHILD TO be offered as sacrifice in ritual to gods and goddesses.
That the assembly shall pass a bill for the killing of the newborn child that has formed dentition before delivery.
That ONE DAY THE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY SHALL SHALL PASS A BILL THAT ALLOWS ANYBODY TO MURDER ANYBODY HE CHOOSES IN AS MUCH AS THE MURDERER DOES NOT MURDER MORE THAN TEN PEOPLE IN A SINGLE YEAR.
THAT BY 2015 GREAT BRITAIN SHALL HAVE ANNEXED NIGERIA AS HER PERPETUAL COLONY.

I wonder what u are high on today

That animal is even unrepentant. What is he still doing in the senate, are we supposed to have people like this in that hollowed chamber? Nigerians over to you....

stanech: I don't see why we should make a big deal about this. Anyone who wants to give his/her child out @ a very tender age should do that and anyone who doesn't want to shouldn't. Kini big deal.

Oh! Its a big deal. U dont know the implication of that law in our nigerian setting. It means that, If a girl toddler is kidnapped and forced into marriage. The parents won't be able to prosecute the man cos she is now adult unless the said child can summon courage to speak out. Problem is she won't have that courage cos they must have threatened her with death. Or families who have serious debt issues can comfortably sell their daughters to the highest bidders who would definitely buy cos of their paedophilic tendencies. Its a serious matter.

Still the trend would continue, the main stuff is that people going I to it do so with eyes open.

That book there is not big enof. Hmm, let's see how they maintain these things in 5 yrs.

karl max: i Thought the opposition led by a certain TINUBU has been critizing the power road map of the GEJ administration!. Openly they scream that the government is clueless they are not working yet underground they get involved in the transformation agenda of the government!.since they say the government is a failure why are people like tinubu associating with failure?.they should have stayed away from this policy embarked upon by the government they termed as a failure so that those who believe in the hard work of this administartion to tranform this country, can have a Good chance of getting and running this PHCN assets!.I hope he and other haters of this administration dont get these assets so as not to use it as a political tool to sabotage this very well thought out policy concieved and implemented by the so called clueless president.

That's tinubu for u, a 2faced snake..

Change country itself like Dukobu. Who wants to be associated with a country of paedophiles.....(shakes Head)

Nnanna224: FFK desperately playing on the Nigerian psyche to gain political capital

It is working and he is right this time

And then our foolish senators would come to tell us that 13 old girls are adults cos they are married. Solidarity to our Nigerian children!!!!!! Free our children.
Solidarity for ever!!!!

Rooneyboy: Very disgusting habit

Funny enof, have caught Women doing the same thing...

Since the Nigerian Senate, in its infinate wisdom, has now endorsed the “Paedophile Charter” which seeks to make it lawful and constitutional for a girl of 9 years old to get married and to have sex it is my view that we have now become a nation of perverts and paedophiles. Every Nigerian should bow his or her head in shame as from today because what the Senate did yesterday, and seeks to do in the future, by beginning the process to amend our constitution in order for it to cater for the filthy appetite and godless fantasies of child molestors and sexual predators is sordid, ungodly and unforgiveable.

Surely we ought to be seeking to protect our children and not seeking to bed them. Yet it appears that not everyone shares our outrage and collective sense of shame. One Uche Ezechukwu made the following contribution which went viral on the social media networks and which I think speaks volumes. He wrote-
“Those who are railing against ‘paedophile’ senators, like Yerima Bakura, must be told that a muslim can’t go wrong while imitating the examples of the Apostle of Allah himself and the founder of his religion, in the same way a christian cannot be criticized for following the examples of Jesus Christ. The Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW) married Aisha at the age of six and consummated the marriage when she was nine. So, why are we judging muslims by our own standards?”

I appauled by these words. The truth is that I have never heard such a self-serving and specious arguement in defence of the philosophies and beliefs of the Ayatollah of Bakura, Senator Ahmed Sani, the practising paedophile who married and bedded a 12 year old Egyptian girl, as this one. Ahmed Sani himself could not have argued it better. Yet I think that it is an utter shame. And this is more so because the individual that is putting the arguement is supposedly a christian. The Old Testament of the Holy Bible prescribes ”stoning” for adultry but that does not mean that christian countries should stone adulterers.

Neither does it mean that we should preserve the institution of slavery or crucify petty thieves simply because the Holy Bible endorsed both practices in the Old Testament. We must accept the fact that the interpretation of biblical and koranic provisions are evolutionary and are ever changing. Jesus Himself said ”laws are made for man and not man for laws”. The suggestion that paedophilia has any place in any modern and decent society simply because it was once practised in the distant past is not only a despicable arguement but it also does not make any sense. After all cannibalism, the killing of twins at birth and child and human sacrifice were once widely practised and were held as being perfectly acceptable throughout the world as well but that does not mean that we should practice any of these terrible vices today.

The young man, Uche Ezechukwu, who appears to be defending child rape in the name of islam, should either let someone lay with and ”marry” his own 6 year old daughter or he should seal his lips forever and stop trying to defend the indefensible. His assertions, and I daresay those of Senator Ahmed Sani and anyone that shares their primitive views, are not only utterly immoral and reprehensible but they are also intellectually dishonest. I say this because the truth is that there is NO muslim country in the world that has adopted the “paedophile charter” where 6 or 9 year olds can marry and be bedded except for Saudi Arabia and Iran.

Alh. Asari Dokubo in Muslim garb

A prominent Niger Delta Muslim, Alhaji Mujahid Abubakr Dokubo-Asari, has lashed out at critics of the moves by Nigeria’s Senate to approve under-age marriage.

Expressing his opinion on the issue this morning, Dokubo, who converted to Islam as an adult, insisted that it is the right of Muslims to marry or give out their daughters at any age they wish, adding that this is not the business of non-Muslims.

Said the Niger Delta Peoples Volunteer Force (NDPVF) leader through Facebook:
“People should learn to respect other people’s sensibilities… We Muslims have the right to marry when we want or give out our daughters at any age we want. It is not your business and the law must respect our right to do so.

Anything short of that is an infringement on our rights. We did not ask you to marry ladies of that age or give your daughters out in marriage at that age. Plzzzzzzzz respect our sensibilities.”

News Express reports that the Nigerian Senate has come under fire from outraged Nigerians and the international community after being convinced by Senator Ahmad Yarima to drop a constitutional amendment outlawing marriage to girls under 18. The former Zamfara State governor who once came under fire for marrying a girl believed to be aged 13 had argued that Islam recognises under-age marriage.

Issues pertaining to religion usually evoke strong reactions in Nigeria, a deeply religious nation that has Christianity and Islam as the dominant faiths.

Listen to this low live. When has he had time to studies the quoran.

Bullshit. And this made front page.

This is becoming a trend. The people's voices have to be heard.

Really not surprised, Orji kalu was a tout and is still one. Rochas being his good friend is also a tout. Who says any of them will win presidential election, likely in their dreams cos that is not about to happen in the next 20 hrs. Beside by then Nigerian oil is finished then all those leeches can go back to their true friends..

The position of the President of the Nigerian Senate is a minefield of banana peels and intrigues that even the most scheming of politicians would fear to tread. A look at the history of the Fourth Republic would reveal how the number three position has thrown up more casualties than survivors. Perhaps, one reason that has shaped its volatile history is the constitutional role of the Senate President. He is the second in line for succession to the Nigerian Presidency, after the vice-president. This is also not to mention the perks of office. This makes it one of the most coveted positions in this democracy.

The 1999 constitution, for example, empowers the Senate President to assume the Presidency in a situation where both the incumbent president and his deputy are indisposed to perform their constitutional roles or when the country is in a crisis. This scenario has played out once in our political history. Nwafor Orizu, Nigeria's second Senate President during the First Republic once became the Acting President from 1965 until the military coup of January 1966. One can thus safely guess that the aspiration of any serving senator is to have a shot at the position-even if is for a day! That is why legislators often engage in intense scheming at the beginning of every plenary. But the seat soon becomes too hot that an incumbent today finds himself at the centre of impeachment plot tomorrow.

We have seen all this played out before our very eyes.

The unpredictability of the position has so far been the story of this democracy. In 1999, at the inception of the Fourth Republic, one reclusive senator named Evans (or is it Evan?) Enwerem became the Senate President. But like all others after him, his reign was short-lived. The senator was soon swept off in a tsunami of intrigues of that era. At the centre of his travails was the allegation of falsification of name. But there was more to his fall. He was investigated for the crime of corruption. But the controversy as to whether the senator's real name was Evan or Evans soon became the subject of intense media attention. He was removed from office on November 18, 1999. He survived for just eight months. Then, came the cerebral and combustible Dr. Chuba Okadigbo, the man popularly hailed as the Oyi of Oyi. His tempestuous reign as Senate President also did not last long. Okadigbo, was known for his opposition to the ruling Peoples Democratic Party at the time. But it was his cat and mouse relationship with the former President Olusegun Obasanjo that became his greatest undoing. He was charged with corruption and removed from office in August 2000. He spent less than a year as Senate President. But it appeared the Law of Karma was at play, himself having been actively involved in the removal of Enwerem.

There was also Anyim Pius Anyim, the Ebonyi State-born politician and senator. He became the Senate President in August 2000 after the removal of Okadigbo. As Senate President, his attempt to impeach Obasanjo failed. He however, did not seek re-election in the 2003 knowing that his opposition to Obasanjo would cost him a re-election. Adolphus Wabara became the Senate President in 2003. His reign also ended in acrimony. Like those before him, allegations of corruption brought about his downfall. In April 2005, he resigned having been alleged to have collected a bribe from the then Minister of Education, Prof. Fabian Osuji, to facilitate the passage of his annual budget. Although Wabara’s charges were eventually dropped, the damage had been done. It was all part of the game plan. He had to go. Senator Ken Nnamani completed the vicious cycle of banana peels the Senate presidency had become until Mark made a grand entry in 2007.

Mark needs no introduction. The ex-general, ex-minister, and one of the infamous Babangida boys who bestrode our world like a colossus during the military years have occupied the position for seven uninterrupted years. After his first term in 2007, he returned albeit controversially in 2011 and has had an almost unassailable run since. And it does not seem that the Strong man of Benue will quit anytime soon. If he completes his term, he will go down in history as the only Senate President that completed two terms in office. What then is Mark doing right? How has he been able to keep his position for seven years? Does his being an ex-general make him a better strategist than his predecessors - a trait that has made him stay ahead of his adversaries? Perhaps, his reputation as a former "Babangida Boy" still drives fear into his colleagues. His unchallenged run is a lesson in how to survive as the Senate president.

To me, Mark has proved that to be a ''successful'' Senate president, your reputation must precede you. It may not just be enough to be a politician. To survive the position, an aspiring Senate president must be a master schemer. Ignore this and risk being impeached. A prospective Senate president must always constantly watch his or her back. This is important because the colleagues who pretend to be friends in the daylight may plot your ouster at night. It is an open truth Nigerian legislators are some of the richest public officials in the country today. To survive as a Senate president, you must ensure the constant flow of Ghana-must-go bags. A good Senate president knows not to deny or delay the privileges meant for his colleagues. They include constituency allowance, furniture allowance, choice houses, contracts and overseas trips and estacodes.

Mark also seems to understand the mindset of his colleagues. He knows that many of them are hardly interested in the business of lawmaking. Otherwise, how else does one explain the near empty chamber at the Senate every session? But a smart Senate president does not pay attention to absentee members. Better an empty house than a house full of traitors. Just like the incumbent, a Senate president must be seen to be vocal on all national and international issues. He must condemn the insecurity in the land when insurgents like Boko Haram strike; he must not be afraid to call the bluff of foreign powers. He should also be quick to legislate on mundane issues while serious national issues are swept under the carpet. He must know how to launch unending probes that lead to nowhere. A Senate president knows that a cordial relationship with the Presidency is critical and crucial for his survival. He knows better than to antagonise a sitting president. Isn't this one lesson that the late Okadigbo failed to learn?

Just like Mark, a Senate president must turn a blind eye to the existence of corruption in the system. He may condemn the scourge in the media but must not work for its eradication. A clever Senate president does not rock the boat. He must adopt the "take a bow" stance each time he is faced with the confirmation of government appointees that require his scrutiny. It does not matter the mediocrity the appointees eventually bring on their portfolios. Mark has proved to be a great student of how to survive as a Senate president. I suspect he may have also studied the factors that led to the failures of his predecessors. Sadly, the tragedy of the country today is because influential and important leaders have chosen to sit on the fence while our country totters on the brink. The judgment of history will be harsh on such leaders.

We will see. I will call my acquaintances in abs and umuahia and ask them to send me pix. I am sure this is just mare propaganda as usual..

Funny enof, I don't remember seeing Mitchell Obama descending the plane before her husband. Pls anyone that has seen such post the pix just to educate us.

idnoble135: Shameful..... Even a day old can be considered of age if "married"? #cringes in fear#. That means one religion encourages child abuse.

Imagine a constitution that has power to determine the rules on marriage but not on Islamic marriages, what kind of constitution is that. Are we not all Nigerians or is one religion superior to the other. Or does the constitution support that all Nigerians are equal and are allowed to practice their religions but a small percentage of Nigerians who practice a certain religion are more equal than the others. Is that what we now teach our children, is that how our children should grow up. Knowing, seeing a and learning that even the constitution that should protect then favours just a select few. The senators have failed us again and we need change, we urgently need a few members on NL in that hollow chamber.

Are there any prizes given? cos I have been 1st to comment severally yet it's made no difference to my membership here.
