Romance / Woman, 35, Abandons Husband For Her Stepson, 21, And Undergoes Plastic Surgery.. by Gladtune: 7:45pm On Jan 14, 2021
Woman, 35, abandons husband for her stepson, 21, and undergoes plastic surgery to be more attractive for him

A woman abandoned her husband for her 21-year-old stepson and she admits she went under the knife to make him fancy her more.

Marina Balmesheva, 35, a fitness blogger from Russia, is pregnant with her stepson Vladimir’s baby and has even insisted on prenup to safeguard her assets.

Marina has known her current boyfriend since he was seven-years-old.

Despite having been married to his dad, she says Vladimir has "the most charming blue-eyes in the world".

Her ex-husband, with whom she adopted five kids, has said that she had seduced his son.

"He had not had a girlfriend before her," he fumed.

"They were not shy to have sex while I was at home.

"I would have forgiven her cheating, if it wasn't my son…

"She was running to my son's bed from our bedroom when I was sleeping…

"After that she was coming back and lying in bed with me as if nothing had happened."

But Marina says her previous marriage was "not living but pretending”

She told her half-a-million online followers: "Did I have regrets that I destroyed the family? Both yes and no.

"I was ashamed that I killed the stability of 'mum and dad'.

"Did I want to return to my ex? No. Do I feel anger and hatred to him? Not any longer.

"He is a good person and a wonderful father to our children….

"How did children take the changes? Absolutely calmly.

"What [do I have] today? I am married. I moved to a bigger city. I love and I am loved."

But she seems nervous that her new relationship with her stepson may not last.

"He is only beginning to settle down," she said.

"We now share everything but he understands and admits that it is me who earned for our car and first mortgage payment.

"We will have a child. Perhaps, more than one.

Health / 20 Doctors Contract Coronavirus In Kwara State Within Three Weeks by Gladtune: 8:27am On Jan 14, 2021
20 doctors have contracted COVID-19 within the past three weeks in Kwara State.

President of the Association of Resident Doctors (ARD) of the University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital (UITH), Dr Badmus Habeeb, disclosed this to Channels Television during a phone interview on Wednesday January 13.

Habeeb who said the association are battling with the pandemic “based on the available resources”, noted that the discovery of vaccines have brought hope and relief for everyone.

He however lamented that there is a poor resource setting in the country, where the necessities to make the rollout of the COVID-19 vaccines easy and possible are not readily available.

The UITH-ARD President said the vaccines have so far proven to be effective and therefore, urged Nigerians to get vaccinated when it arrives while adhering strictly to other COVID-19 guidelines.

He said;

“About 20 of our members have become infected in the last two to three weeks.

“I must reiterate that this is not the best of times for us, our families and the affected patients.

Politics / Buhari And Governors Should Resign If They Are Unable To Tackle Insecurity – Fem by Gladtune: 8:43am On Jan 11, 2021
Buhari and Governors should resign if they are unable to tackle insecurity – Femi Falana's wife, Funmi

Mrs Funmi Falana, a Lagos-based lawyer and wife of human rights activist Femi Falana has asked President Buhari and the 36 state governors to resign if they are unable to tackle insecurity.

Speaking in Iyin Ekiti, Ekiti State, during her yearly New Year celebration with motherless children, Funmi stated that Nigerians are afraid to go out because they are unsure of their security.

She said;

“Nigerians are afraid to go out, Nigerians fear for their lives, they are afraid for their security. It is very sad. Nobody ever envisaged that Nigeria will get to a situation like this.

“There is the need to do something about the security of the citizens. A government that is unable to guarantee the security of the citizens is a failed government, so if they cannot protect the Nigerian people, the governments have failed.

“We are using this opportunity to remind them that it is the constitutional responsibility of the government under Chapter Two of the constitution to provide security for the people. It is as if they are helpless, if they are helpless, let them resign and let us know that we don’t have government."

Sports / Pinnick, Others Dragged Before FIFA by Gladtune: 6:30am On Jan 11, 2021
Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) president Amaju Pinnick’s bid to become a FIFA Council member and any other candidate vying for various positions in March’s Confederation of African Football (CAF) elections in Morocco will be subjected to FIFA’s ratification.

Pinnick is looking to replace Guinea’s Almamy Kabele Camara at the 37-member FIFA Council which is the main decision-making body of the world football body that sets the vision for FIFA and global football.

But CAF said in a release on Sunday that “At the request of the Interim President of CAF, Mr. Constant Omari, a virtual meeting of the CAF Emergency Committee was held on Saturday with the committee deciding that the Governance Committee of CAF together with the FIFA Review Committee must determine as soon as possible a date for formalizing the final list of all the candidates for all the elections, namely: members of the CAF Executive Committee, FIFA Council members and CAF President.

Also, The Governance Committee shall submit, to the FIFA Review Committee, the candidatures received for the position of CAF President, with the understanding that the President of CAF will become the Vice-President of FIFA.

Yet CAF has ruled that just two of the five candidates for March’s presidential elections are eligible so far, former Ivorian football federation president Jacques Anouma and current Senegal FA president Augustin Senghor; other candidates are hopefully to get approval before the elections in March.

Pinnick’s preferred candidate and Mamelodi Sundowns owner, Patrice Motsepe and Mauritania FA president Ahmed Yahya need further checks before either can be added to the list.

Politics / Electoral Act Amendment Won’t Guarantee Free Polls – INEC by Gladtune: 6:17am On Jan 11, 2021
The Chairman, Independent National Electoral Commission, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu on Sunday, said amending the Electoral Act without a commitment from stakeholders to do things differently, cannot guarantee free and fair elections.

Yakubu said this in an address delivered on his behalf by the INEC National Commissioner in charge of Information and Voter Education Committee, Festus Okoye at a three-day retreat of the Joint Technical Committee on the Electoral Act Amendment Bill 2020 which ended in Abuja on Sunday.

The INEC boss expressed gratitude to the Senate Committee on INEC and the House of Representatives Committee on Electoral Matters; for working together to produce a new legal framework for the conduct of elections.

He, however said, “It must be borne in mind that amending the electoral legal framework will not automatically guarantee or lead to improvement in the management and conduct of elections.

“The Constitution and the Electoral Act can only be effective through the action and inaction of the critical stakeholders in the electoral process.

“The Constitution and Electoral Act can enhance the electoral process if the electoral management body, political parties and the electoral actors, the security agencies, the media and civil society organisations, effectively play their roles.

“Nigeria’s democracy and electoral processes will become more robust if critical stakeholders in the process resolve to restore sovereignty to the people as the true determinant of the outcome.

“This renewed drive is timely and must be sustained and approached with a sense of history and urgency.

“The reform must be impactful and should be concluded by the first quarter of 2021.’’

The Attorney General of the Federation, and the Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami (SAN), in his address, pledged to work with the technical committee to ensure unhindered presidential assent to the bill.

Malami who was represented by the Special Assistant to the President on Justice Reform and International Relations Office, Mrs. Juliet Ibekaku-Nwagwu said, “I will continue to work more closely with the National Assembly to ensure that the bill is eventually passed as scheduled.”

The Chairman, Senate Committee on INEC, Kabiru Gaya, announced that, “We have received 24 written memorandum and verbal presentations from different interest groups. There is no doubt that we have more than enough valuable inputs from Nigerians for consideration.”

Also at the event, Head of Governance and Stability at the United Kingdom Foreign and Commonwealth Development Office, Sam Waldock, has said, the United Kingdom has so far invested over £50m on Nigeria’s electoral processes since 2015.

He said, “The United Kingdom is a proud supporter of elections and democratic processes in Nigeria. In the last five years, the UK has invested over £50m into Nigeria’s democratic process.

“We recognise Nigeria as the largest democracy in Africa, and a leading member of the Commonwealth of nations.

“It will therefore be good to have a robust comprehensive system placed far ahead of the general election so that adequate preparations could be made.”

Politics / Igbo People Can’t Unite For Presidency Yet Talk About Biafra-chimamanda Adichie by Gladtune: 9:59am On Jan 05, 2021
Chimamanda Adichie gave her opinion about Biafra during her interview with Ebuka Obi-Uchendu.

The renowned writer wondered how Igbos can achieve Biafra when they can't unite towards selecting a Nigerian president who is from the region.

The 43-year-old said Igbo people need to rethink how they strategise politically before talking about secession.

She said: "There is no Biafra. There are new movements but, for me, it’s a question of being practical. Where would the border be? What is propelling these movements is a sense of marginalisation, which I think is completely valid.

"But this idea that the answer is independence is what I’m not convinced of. Nobody has made a logical case for me. Quite frankly, I’ve observed the terrible leadership that we have in the southeast.

"Igbo people cannot unite if, for example, we say we want an Igbo president. And then we’re talking about Biafra. There is a lot of political work we need to do in the southeast.

"We need to do a lot of rethinking on how we strategise politically before we can talk about Biafra."

She also spoke about misogyny in the South East and its effect on politics.

She said: "There are things I quarrel with, in Igbo culture. It’s misogynistic, as are many cultures. That’s the problem. The world is misogynistic. At my father’s funeral, they showed where the widow, my mother, would sit.

"And they showed where the sons in the extended family (umunna) would sit. That’s where those coming would go to present whatever they bring. It’s the sons’. And that was the end. My father had three daughters. There was no place for them.

"I raised the question and a man in my umunna said we would have to loiter around. There’s a problem with that.

"There’s a woman who apparently is going to run for governor in Anambra state.

"I’m having a conversation with a group of people and what they’re saying is, ‘Can a woman rule Anambra?’ Do you need a dangling organ to rule a state? It’s hard enough for both male and female politicians.

Foreign Affairs / Republicans Rejects Resolution Acknowledging Joe Biden As President-elect by Gladtune: 11:13am On Dec 09, 2020
Republican leaders in the US congress have rejected a resolution acknowledging Joe Biden as the president-elect, the latest effort by Capitol Hill Republicans controlled by Trump to refuse to accept the election results even though it's been clear for weeks that President Donald Trump lost.

In a private meeting on Tuesday, House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer offered a motion to affirm that it is preparing for the inauguration of President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris.

Then in a dramatic turn of events, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and Rules Committee Chairman Roy Blunt of Missouri voted with House Republican Leader, Kevin McCarthy to block the motion, a move that prevented the inaugural committee from publicly accepting that the January 20 inauguration will be for Joe Biden.

Sen. Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota, the ranking Democrat on the Rules Committee, voted with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Hoyer voting in favor of recognizing Joe Biden as the president elect.

"The extent to which Republicans are refusing to accept the outcome of the election and recognize Joe Biden and Kamala Harris as our next President and Vice President is astounding," Democrat Hoyer said in a statement.

"Their continued deference to President Trump's post-election temper tantrums threatens our democracy and undermines faith in our system of elections ... Republicans are refusing even to allow (Joint Congressional Committee on Inaugural Ceremonies) to say that President-elect Biden and Vice President-elect Harris will be inaugurated on January 20, even when there is no serious dispute over that fact."

Republicans on Capitol Hill have repeatedly refused to recognize that the next President of the United States will be Biden and Hoyer told reporters he could not speculate why Republicans voted against the motion.

"You'll have to ask them, you'll have to ask them," Hoyer said when pressed on if Republicans voted against the motion because it recognized

2015: I rejected Jonathan and backed Buhari because I’m not tribalistic - Rotimi Amaechi says

Minister of Transport and former Rivers state governor, Rotimi Amaechi, says he backed the presidential ambition of President Buhari in 2015 because he isn't a tribalistic Nigeria.

 

Amaechi said this when he received politicians defecting from PDP to APC in Rivers state on Saturday, December 5.

 

As governor of Rivers state, Amaechi left the PDP for the APC in November 2013 and became the director-general of Buhari’s presidential campaign. This caused a strain in his relationship with Jonathan and Amaechi.

 

While receiving the defectors, Amaechi said former President Goodluck Jonathan made him several offers to remain in the PDP but he turned them down and gave his “allegiance to Buhari because I am not tribalistic”.

 

He said ahead of the 2023 elections, he will resume his prayer sessions in 2021. According to him, he triumphed over Jonathan in 2015 because God was with him.

 

“Next year, we are starting prayer session. You know, when Goodluck fought us, he was not fighting me, he was fighting God, and I knew he would fail.

Crime / A Drug Leader Fakes His Death With Bloody 'torture' Photos To Avoid Jail by Gladtune: 1:54pm On Dec 06, 2020
A drug dealer tried to fake his own death during a desperate attempt to avoid going to jail.



The notorious criminal named Gabriel C – and known in Belgium as "Lange Vingers" (Long Fingers) – staged photographs of himself being "tortured" to death, with the word “thief” being carved into his chest.



He released the images of himself seemingly slumped in a chair with his hands bound and fake injuries across his body.

The images were presented as proof he had been tortured to death by a rival drug gang after he had been busted for stealing cocaine that he had been tasked with ensuring made passage to a port in Antwerp.



However authorities failed to fall for the "tortured to death" ploy and he has since been arrested and charged.



Gabriel C will now be jailed for four years and fined £16,193 for his part in a 113kg cocaine smuggling operation dating back to 2016.



The criminal had attempted to sell the drugs he siphoned off from the shipment he was supposed to supervise.



Last year, he went into hiding after the Albanian drugs gang he stole from made him a marked man.

Chief of army staff, Tukur Buratai, says that contrary to what some persons have reported, there was no single corpse at the Lekki tollgate on October 20 when the military came and fired shots while #ENDSARS protesters gathered to demand an end to police brutality.

According to him, some people saw double during the shooting incident.

The Cable reports that the Army Chief shared this opinion when he spoke at the decoration of 39 newly promoted major-generals on Friday, December 4. He opined that a spiritual warfare seminar held by the army helped in preventing deaths at the protest ground. In his words

“I am glad that we held the Spiritual Warfare Seminar on Wednesday and most of the decorated generals today are graduates of the seminar,” he said.

I must say that the spiritual warfare seminar we had last time helped us during the last #EndSARS protest to the extent that there was no single corpse, but some persons were seeing double at Lekki toll gate in Lagos state.
