Heaven only knows what intriguing capers lovers will be up to this festive period.

With all the disappointment we’ve had since the beginning of the year, looking into our bags of tricks and coming up with something cheerful, looks a bit daunting. But look we must – after all, it is Christmas, a season of being merry.

Gloria told me she was still licking the wounds from last Christmas’ nightmare. She’d planned to spend it abroad with her partner.

Unfortunately, something came up and he had to cancel his trip. “You know how it is with these businessmen”, said Gloria, a banker.

“The nod he was expecting from government to start a multi-million Naira project hadn’t come and he would be foolish to take any trip until it materialized.

Since we’d booked the flight, he urged me to go alone, especially since I would be attending my niece’s wedding”.

“One of the advantages of flying first class is that your chances of meeting spare-
parts sellers, travelling to order new purchases with their hard currency tied round their waists, is virtually non-existence.

Instead, you’re likely to meet top of the range chief executives and business tycoons on short trips either to clinch yet another mega-deal or to take a well-deserved rest for a few days.

As soon as I got inside the plane, I found myself seated next to a vulnerable looking middle-aged businessman.

Naturally, we got chatting during the flight and the trip took an interesting turn as the man turned out to be very intelligent and friendly.

When the duty-free trolley was wheeled to where we sat, he looked interestingly at a couple of very expensive perfumes then turned to me: “I’m so hopeless at choosing perfumes”, he said, showing me what he’d got. `Can you make some selection for me?’

I like the one you’re wearing and I trust your judgement.”

“Of course, I was flattered. I helped him make a few selections and he paid for his purchase. He then gave me two of the perfumes as a `thank you gesture for helping him out. I was really surprised but I thanked him all the same, quickly putting my loot in my hand luggage.

“After we cleared customs, a driver was waiting to take him whilst I looked around for a taxi.

Chidi, that’s his name, offered me a lift and I accepted eagerly, thankful that the service flat that Toye, my partner, always got for me was in the best part of the city. The fridge would be well-stocked and other goodies would have been provided.

“Chidi looked impressed when he saw me to the flat. The least I could do was offer him a drink which he readily accepted. He quickly downed it, told me he had to go to his hotel to freshen up and he was sure I wanted to freshen up too.

But would I want dinner later in the evening?

Over dinner, I mentioned my niece’s wedding which was the next day and he offered to send me his car.

The car was to later bring me back to his place after the wedding, with any of my friends I wanted entertained. It was a real lively day and he spared no expenses in making sure we had fun.

“It was inevitable that we started an affair. Chidi is the sort of man very few women say no to – he is what you call a smoothie! He was in my flat two days to Christmas, along with a few of his friends, when the door-bell rang. Thinking it was yet another guest, I opened the door.

My jaw nearly hit the floor when I saw Toye smiling at me. He had a few free days on hi hands now that he’d gotten the nod he was waiting for and he’d come to surprise me by spending Christmas with me. I silently led him to the living room of the flat he’d paid for and there was Chidi, sipping champagne from the fridge, playing host by asking Toye what he wanted to drink.

One look at my face, and he quickly twigged on to what was going on. But he was hardly the type to scurry out of a room faced with opposition – he simply carried on with his drink. My friends, poor things, were nervous and that more than gave the game away.

“I’m glad you’re all having fun”, Toye said.

“I just came in from the airport actually. I will quickly go back to the hotel, to freshen up and come back. With a non-committal kiss on my forehead he calmly walked away, not portraying the hurt he must have felt.


A man who’d lavished love and money on his lover of over three years, walked into the territory he’d secured for her, only to find another man eating the fruits of his labour!

“So, here is another Christmas round the corner and I don’t have a regular guy- Toye is a tough act to beat. I wrote him a letter of apology and told him I didn’t expect our affair to continue.

He didn’t even bother to reply. I must have hurt him too deeply.

“Why did he appear on the scene all of a sudden that fateful day?

Did one of my so-called friends phone to tip him off?

It was very unlike him to spring a surprise like that on anyone. Why was he sure I would be in the flat?

He never even phoned from the airport that he’d arrived.

“My advice to readers this yuletide?

Over three thousand members of the Alliance for New Nigeria (ANN) in Ogun State have defected to the People’s Democratic Party(PDP), ahead of the Local Government elections expected to be conducted in the state next year and subsequent general elections in 2023, VAM NEWS gathered.

The defectors led by the House of Representatives candidate of the ANN for Abeokuta South Federal Constituency, Akeem Amosun, in the last general elections, said that they elected to move to PDP to form a vibrant and formidable opposition in the Gateway State.

The former ANN members were received into PDP family on Thursday evening by former House of Representatives member; Hon. Ladi Adebutu and PDP chieftain, Sikurullai Ogundele.

Akeem Amosun told reporters that the decision to moving from ANN to PDP would help him realize his political aspiration.

Adebutu welcomed the defectors, saying that the coalition became necessary as recent elections held in the country are being militarized.

He said: 
       “Our opponents are wicked, therefore, we need to be united. The nature of elections as seen throughout the federation are now being militarized brazenly.

“The forthcoming elections can only be won by landslide, therefore, I urge all parties to stand united and coalesce as one body so that when they come with their thugs from Lagos we shall resist them.

“The APC government in the state lack competence and compassion. They can’t do anything without getting approval from Lagos.

Official Letter issued below:
https://www.voiceairmedia.com/2019/12/naps-issues-gov-obaseki-ultimatum-to.html

Ondo State Governor, Arakunrin Oluwarotimi Akeredolu,SAN has emphasized the need for Universities and other tertiary institutions to prioritize skill acquisitions alongside the acquisition of certificates, VAM News has learnt. 

The Governor said the practice of acquiring certificates without the skills and knowledge to solve problems cannot be equated with capacity.

Arakunrin Akeredolu, who delivered the 20th Founders' Day Anniversary Lecture of the Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba-Akoko, on Wednesday, said the acquisition of certificates should be evident in the capacity to engage challenges and break new grounds to accommodate the inherent dynamism in human affairs.  

The Governor, who lamented the embarrassing presence of a multitude of unemployed youths in the polity, called for an urgent review of the current practices.

While pointing out the errors that is often made, Akeredolu said the society usually mistake being lettered to be the sole purpose of education, adding that the ability to read and write only opens doors for opportunities. 

He said: 
             ”Proficiency in an official language of the State confirms elitism, not capacity. Being knowledgeable in specific areas of knowledge is an advantage. The needs of a society should be emphasized in a curriculum of training.

”A properly trained citizen is an asset to the community. An untrained compatriot is a perennial burden. A system of instruction must be purposeful; it must be designed to achieve an end. Acquisition of knowledge confers potential ability status on a people. Its application actualizes dreams and prevents untoward occurrences.”

Governor Akeredolu said universities in Nigeria will only contribute meaningfully to the development of the country if there is a remarkable change in attitude.

”Our universities must redirect their energies to peculiar areas of research, which will be beneficial to the environment. Until this is done, the tragic joke continues,” Akeredolu said.

While congratulating the graduating students, the Governor asked them to  consider the acquisition of their certificates as basic, saying that they need to acquire new skills to survive at this current period.

He saluted the vision of late Pa Adebayo Adefarati for establishing the university, adding that the state must ensure that the noble idea continues to grow.  

In a press release signed by Olabode Richard Olatunde Special Assistant to the Governor (New Media), ”I am not oblivious of the significant strides already made by this great institution. I must, however, nudge you not to be complacent.

...VC canvasses deregulation of education sector

National Association of University Students (NAUS) has threatened to hit the streets over the high fees charged by universities across the country, VAM NewsOnline reports.

It said the measure could increase the number of dropouts in no distant time. In a statement in Ado Ekiti yesterday, NAUS National Vice President, South West, Comrade David Aridiogo Aruson, said there might be nationwide protests in all universities that decided to put heavy financial burdens on students through obnoxious fees.

The students warned the managements of universities to stop transferring the burden of underfunding by governments to students who should enjoy their right to education. 

They students called for immediate reduction in acceptance and tuition fees payable in universities to avert confrontation with the students’ body across the nation.

While speaking at the press conference, Aridiogo said it was pathetic that universities’ managements hide under underfunding to introduce all manners of fees that could deprive children of the poor necessary education.“In Ekiti State University, acceptance fee has increased from N70,000 to N100,000. The medical and law students are to pay N150,000.

“Beyond government’s inefficiency, the management of various universities in the country, especially in Ekiti, involving in evil activities with the introduction of levies and fees that are far outside their scope, all in the name of sourcing funds despite that it is expected of government to fund universities.

“We condemn in totality this trend in our universities and demand the abolition of alien fees, proper funding of education by the governments, democratisation of university administration and reversal of the increment in school fees in our universities,” he said.

Meanwhile, the Vice Chancellor of Adekunle Ajasin University Akungba-Akoko (AAUA), Ondo State, Prof. Igbekele Ajibefun, has advocated deregulation of the education sector, declaring that government alone can no longer finance education adequately in the country. 

He stated this in Akure yesterday during a media briefing for the ninth convocation of the institution.

Ajibefun said the funding of the sector solely by government was not sustainable due to paucity of fund. The vice chancellor, who advocated inclusive funding for the university system, justified the recent increment in the tuition of the institution, declaring that the old fee was unrealistic. 

He explained that it was long overdue and attributed the results achieved in the institution to the increment, which he said also impacted positively on the standard of teaching and learning.

The National Association of Polytechnic Students(NAPS) has denied endorsement of Governor Godwin Obaseki for the 2020 Edo governorship election.

Newly elected National President of NAPS, Comrade Olasunkanmi Ijaduoye, in a statement made available to newsmen in Abuja, said the student body distances itself from the purported endorsement of Obaseki for the second term, saying there was no iota of truth in the said reports in a section of the media.

He said: 

       “The newly elected national leadership of NAPS under my watch as the president of the entire polytechnic students sees it imperative to distance the well-meaning and intellectual polytechnic students from an integrity attacking reports flying in the media that the leadership of NAPS has rallied cum declared supports for governor Godwin Obaseki Of Edo State ahead of the 2020 Edo governorship election.

“The planned convention of our dear association scheduled for Edo State over the weekend commenced on disappointing note from the convention planning committee, chaired by Com Oluwole Jacob who carelessly dragged the hard-earned integrity of polytechnic students into dirty political atmosphere of Edo State, all because of monetary gains.

“The unsuspecting polytechnic students who had converged for convention in Edo State where dubiously lobbied into a rally tagged “SAVE EDUCATION RALLY” not knowing that the convention planning committee has already had unknown negotiations with the deputy governor of Edo State, Com Philip Shuabi, to turn the rally to an endorsement rally.

“The anti students’ act of the Convention planning committee got the teeming student Union president of polytechnics in the country to immediately pass a vote of no confidence on the Convention planning committee, thereby immediately appoint a Convention chairman that conducted the election,” he said.

Ijaduoye added that immediately he emerged as the President of NAPS at the convention ground, he saw it needful and as a matter of integrity to distance the Association from being dragged in dirty politics.

He said:

         “We have laboured too far to allow the integrity of the polytechnic students to be dragged into the mud courtesy the recklessness of our comrades."

The Executive Director, OneForAll Initiative, Babawale Popoola, on Saturday called on Nigerians to get tested to enable them to know their HIV status.

While speaking with VAM Correspondent, Babawale made the call in Osogbo during a FREE HIV SCREENING exercise organised by OneForAll Initiative, a Non-Governmental Organisation, to commemorate 2019 World AIDS Day.

The theme of this year’s activity is “Know Your Status’’.

He said that the Day, which was commemorated annually on Dec. 1, gave opportunity for people worldwide to unite in the fight against HIV and to show support for people living with the virus.

He added that the day was also set aside to enable everyone to know their status and to fight against stigmatisation and discrimination.

“World AIDS Day is observed on Dec.1 globally. I had my test a few days ago and I encourage everyone to get tested to know their status.

Adv. Babawale Popoola, Executive Director, OneForAll Initiative, said that the Day was set aside to create awareness on HIV and AIDS.

Babawale recalled that in 2016, no fewer than 1.4 million people were tested and became aware of their HIV status.

He said that the Day offered an opportunity to highlight the success of worldwide efforts to combat HIV and AIDS as well as the importance of continued support to end the scourge in 2030.

“Nigeria is a global signatory to end AIDS in 2030, which means that every Nigerian that is positive must be placed on treatment and that is why this year, the theme is `know your status’.

“Knowing your status is the entry point of accessing HIV services and those who turn positive are given anti-retroviral drugs free of charge.

“Nigeria can contribute to the aspiration of ending AIDS in 2030 as we encourage everyone to know their status and we are determined not to leave anyone behind.

“In Osun State, with a team of medical professionals as volunteers we are conducting free HIV screening, counseling and consultation free of charge,’’ he said.

On this note, On behalf of the entire students of Olabisi Onabanjo University,under a mother umbrella of the National Association Of Nigerian Students, Ogun State axis, I appreciate and commend the effort of the  University's Vice Chancellor, Prof. Ganiyu Olatunji Olatunde, for his efforts, zeal and enthusiasm made towards the development of the institution. 

We must confirm  that it is not just a mere hearsay but an achievement glaring to the eyes of all about the different infrastructural development being put in place for the comfortability of students and ease of learning in Olabisi Onabanjo University. 

Among your achievements which cannot be swept under the carpet are;

The Ondo State government has commended the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) for helping with the posting of corps members to schools, thereby making up for shortage of teachers, VAM News has gathered.

The state’s Head of Service, Mr Dare Aragbaiye, gave the commendation while receiving the management members of NYSC who were on a courtesy visit to his office in Akure on Tuesday.

Aragbaiye assured the corps members posted to the state of government’s continued support to ensure that they served their fatherland in a favourable environment.

He stressed the need to sustain the cordial relationship between the organisation and the state government, particularly on matters relating to the welfare of corps members posted to the state.

The head of service reiterated the Gov. Oluwarotimi Akeredolu-led administration’s commitment to embark on development projects that would make the state a hub for foreign direct investment.

In her remarks, the NYSC state coordinator, Mrs Grace Akpabio, appealed to the state government to direct its ministries, agencies and parastatals not to reject corps members posted to them.

A picture of the social media regulation bill been photocopied word to word from Singapore is making rounds online.

In the past few days, the Social Media Bill regulation bill and the hate speech bill has taken the media agog; with youths, women, men and the entire citizenry crying loud for the bill to be abandoned.

The Social Media bill as seen in the document below is just a full extraction of the look alike bill in Singapore, nothing was changed, nothing was corrected.

The bill is considered a plagiarism act.

We all say no to the social media bill regulation bill. The beauty of democracy is the criticisms from the masses; this not a military rule, neither is it an autocratic dispensation.

It is encapsulated in the fundamental human rights, for individuals to express their feelings, their views and the way they feel about a matter.
If this bill succeeds, then the only weapon left in the hands of the populace will be taken away.
It is a no no no.

Nigerians should keep on reacting against such anti-human bill.
