At Military Checkpoints

Unless you have been adequately fortified against 3D slaps and soulbreaking punishments, do not attempt to use your phone at Military checkpoints.Infact,do not even put on your headset or earpiece if you intend to get to your destination with all your body parts functioning.. That's if you get to your destination at all.

Doctors have confirmed that it has a potentially lethal effect on the human Anatomy as 70% of the reported cases failed to gain maximum use of the affected parts for the remaining part of their lives.

This is the most dangerous one self.

The Federal Executive Council (FEC) has approved a comprehensive reform of the tertiary education system in the country with plans to scrap the award of the Higher National Diploma (HND) programmes offered by polytechnics.
In effect, the award of the HND will be limited to only students currently enrolled in the programmes.
Also, all the programmes currently being run by polytechnics, which are not technology-based will be scrapped.
Under the new law, the polytechnics will now become campuses of the proximate universities with the Vice Chancellors of those universities appointing provosts for the polytechnics, subject to the ratification of the Universities Councils.
The polytechnics will now be limited to award of the National Diploma (ND) while those desirous of further education will be awarded the Bachelor of Technology (B. Tech) by the proximate university.
To kick-start the new policy, the nation’s two most prominent polytechnics – Yaba College of Technology and Kaduna Polytechnic – will henceforth be known as City University of Technology, Yaba and City University of Technology, Kaduna respectively.
And to give legal backing to these approvals, the FEC approved the submission of two Executive bills to the National Assembly for enactment into law.
The first bill will concretise the setting up of the two city universities while the second will approve the preparation and consolidation of all federal polytechnics and colleges of education as campuses of proximate universities.

No body has ever say good thing since. I am a loyal customer of *737# I haven't experience all these complained above. Sometimes they (GTB , charge me #10 or none at all. Update your account.

IN the case of the State and Rev. Chukwuemeka Kingsley Ezeugo, the Supreme Court a few days ago, upheld the rulings of the lower courts and ruled that the bearded, self-styled “little god”, “Jesus Christ of our time”, and founder of the Lagos-based Christian Praying Assembly (CPA), deserves to be hanged, for enacting a form of horror movie which resulted in the death in 2006 of Ms Ann Uzoh. The simple import of that ruling is that no man is a king before the law, and that the law is no respecter of persons including those who describe themselves as anointed men of God, and who on that account use religion to commit atrocities.
But the most bizarre development since that ruling last Friday has been the intervention of a group called the Ndigbo Cultural Society of Nigeria (NCSN). The group says Nigeria has nothing to gain by shedding Rev. King’s blood and that President Muhammadu Buhari should grant the convicted murderer state pardon because “he is still a spiritual leader to many Nigerians.” The Ndigbo Society is indirectly saying that Rev King’s life should be spared because he is Igbo, and a religious leader. This is nothing but arrant nonsense. It makes us wonder what happens to people’s heads once they are in the grips of the disease of ethnicism. Has anyone told the Ndigbo Cultural Society that Rev. King’s victim, Ann Uzoh, was also Igbo? Or is Emeka Ezeugo’s Igbo life more important than that of Ann Uzoh? Or the lives of the others: Jessica Nwene, Kosiso Ezenwankwo, Chiejina Olisa, Chizoba Onuora, Vivian and Uche?
We keep encountering this kind of absurdity. Crime is excused on the grounds of ethnic affiliation. My-brother-can-do-no-wrong-once-we-are-from-the-same-village: and it is this that has created a web of conspiracy whenever and wherever the ethnic game is at play, and that conspiracy is against the state and decent values of national togetherness. But we thank God for the courts of law, which in this case have brought the Rev. King saga to a closure. And please note that if the victim in this case had been of non-Igbo extraction, perhaps the Ndigbo Cultural Society would have been more strident with their appeal. They’d do well to keep quiet and not further insult the memory of the dead.
They are right on one score though: that Rev King is still a religious leader to many Nigerians. It is one of those funny things about the scope and spread of superstition and religious fanaticism in Nigeria that there are indeed persons who worship their fellow human beings and turn them into their gods. It is precisely this same form of delusion that led to the crime that is taking Rev. King to the gallows in the first place.
It is why he still has followers who believe that the Supreme Court ruling is a joke and that “Rev. King is superhuman, he can’t be killed by mere mortals”. Members of the Christian Praying Assembly are still reportedly awaiting the return of the man they call “His Holiness”. One Sunny, acting as their spokesman, says: “His Holiness cannot be killed. He is more than a mere human being and cannot be killed by any mortal…He will come back home at the appointed time and by then, the people behind this whole thing will bury their heads in shame…” These characters imagine that the people who will bury their heads in shame include the Justices of the Supreme Court?
Apart from ethnicity, religion is another major source of crisis in Nigeria. It turns people’s heads, turns them into zombies and forces them, in many cases to worship man instead of God. Across the country, every day, there are millions who have turned religious leaders including herbalists into “Little gods”. Among Christians and Muslims, widespread confusion over the interpretation of the doctrine has created such complexity that continues to lead people astray. Poverty and the scarcity of opportunities continue to drive people to places of imagined salvation. The pastors promise miracles: they not only preach the gospel, they claim all kinds of powers including the power to make the blind see, to make the lame walk, and to help the unmarried find husbands and wives. Some of the pastors add a touch of the melodramatic to it: they give out clothes, cars, houses, and free food.
But it is the people’s money being recycled and given back as token. The lifestyle of many of the religious leaders would make the Pope cringe. They preach salvation and divine protection, for example, but they live as if they are afraid of their own shadows. The poor members of the congregation relate with the anointed man of God from a distance because they are not rich enough to get close to him, but from the pittance that they manage to make, they contribute tithes unfailingly, to make the man of God and his family live it up and boast that their “Lord is Good!”
The more stylish a religious leader is, the more popular. And some have even gone from being stylish to being practically unusual. There are churches where the Pastors slap, beat, and kick members. In some other places of worship, the Pastors are reportedly romantically involved with female members of the congregation, including married women.
There is freedom of religion and freedom of worship and association and so, anyone can call himself a Reverend, a Prophet, a Spiritualist or God’s Deputy, erect a tent and turn himself into some people’s God. Rev King actually lived like that, like a mini-God. He built a large cult-like followership and exercised near-absolute powers over his besotted followers. Ann Uzoh was one of his victims. Sometime, in 2006, he had set her and six other members of the church ablaze for allegedly committing fornication, witchcraft and other offences.
He sat in judgment in his own court and issued a death sentence. Ann and other ladies in church were Rev. King’s sex slaves, and according to one account it was the rivalry between Ann and another sex slave that led to the dousing of Ann and others with petrol, their being set ablaze, and Ann’s death.
Ann Uzoh is better remembered as one of those promising young Nigerians whose life was derailed by religious hypnotism. Young ladies who are still today selling themselves to churches and pastors should be reminded of her story and there is no better person to offer a reminder than the father of Ann Uzoh, Mr. Raphael Uzoh. In 2006, the Nigerian Tribune (August 9, 2006) interviewed him and reported, in part, as follows:
“The decision of Miss Uzoh, a Higher National Diploma graduate in Accountancy from the Institute of Management and Technology, Enugu State, to pack out of her parents’ house at the period without telling anybody, was said to have shocked everyone. According to the father of the deceased, during a chat with Mid-week Tribune, when he could no longer withstand the pressure being mounted on him by his daughters suitors who had sought her hands in marriage, shortly before she eloped with Rev King, he began the search for her until he was informed by some concerned family members that she had been sighted at the Christian Prayer Assembly belonging to the suspect.
“To my surprise, when I got there, based on the instruction of Rev. King to my daughter, I was told by some insiders that my daughter had changed her name to Ann King. And she told me that I was not her father, that she had started bearing Ann King, said Mr. Raphael Uzoh. He stated that despite this strange behaviour by his daughter and her unusual and sudden rudeness to him, he did not relent in trying to re-assure her that she was still welcome at home if she could still change her mind and come to her senses. Rather, he expressed regrets that his late daughter who was his first child remained adamant and unrepentant.
“However, the bereaved father, in tears, noted that sometime on Saturday, July 22, 2006 at the church’s premises, the accused person was said to have called the deceased and some other five members of the church into his residence and leveled some accusations against the worshippers who saw him as a little god. Mr Uzoh, now left with two children, said he learnt that once anyone was summoned by the pastor, that person, out of fear, must kneel down before the pastor, no matter how old he or she might be.
There and then, the suspect was said to have passed death sentence on the girls for perceived fornication and witchcraft. He ordered for fuel and it was brought to him by one Kelechi because the first gallon of fuel brought by the accused person to sprinkle on the unfortunate worshippers was not enough, he recalled.”
That is not the end of the story. Mr. Raphael Uzoh, while trying to rescue his daughter, was ordered to join Rev. King’s church. He did and was given the assignment of lacing Rev. King’s shoes (!). Rev. King definitely lived like a king, and here are some of his followers still insisting that the hangman cannot kill him, even after the Supreme Court had spoken. It won’t be long before they start claiming that he will resurrect! But what on earth could have turned a graduate of Accountancy into a willing sex slave in a church? Unemployment? We need to worry seriously and do something about the growing hordes of young men and women who have turned themselves into slaves of churches, other religious groups, pastors and clerics. Nigeria is losing too much talent and national productivity time to places of religious worship.
It is sad that political leaders also patronize these haunts and their managers. Nigeria has become one big theatre of religious ritual. The name of God is the most abused name in Nigeria today. The resultant tragedy and hypocrisy are astonishing.
For now, we can only hope, that all the religious leaders who use religion as a vehicle of abuse will learn the appropriate lessons from the saga of Rev. Chukwuemeka Kingsley Ezeugo a.k.a. Rev. King. And I am not in any way saying all clerics are bad; but that the likes of Rev. King bring the calling to disrepute and sadly, their population seems to be increasing. Rev King has had his day in court. The law has taken its course. Now, let justice be done according to the existing law, even if the heavens fall.

The Presbyterian Reverend of Ameke-Abam in Arochukwu, Titus Onwuchekwa who was paraded alongside five suspects for armed robbery at the Lagos State Police Command, Ikeja has revealed that a car dealer used the stolen car to sow a seed into his life. The other suspects who were paraded alongside Rev Titus included Opeyemi Aregbesola, 28; Bola Salami, 30; Osas Felix Bright, 32; Chibike Umeh, 22; and Ndibe Samuel, 31.
It was learnt that upon the arrest of two notorious armed robbery kingpins, Opeyemi Aregbesola and Bola Salami who had been on the wanted list of Special Anti-Robbery Squad for snatching exotic vehicles, the operatives recovered a Toyota Camry 2007 model with registration number MUS782DD.
While parading the suspects, Lagos State Commissioner of Police, CP Fatai Owoseni, said that, “During interrogation, the duo confessed to have stolen a series of cars at gunpoint. Their confession led to the arrest of one Osas Felix Bright and Chibuike Umeh at their hideout at Oko Igbede, Alaba International Market. The two suspects also confessed to have received many stolen vehicles from the gang and sold them at give-away prices to their customers at Onitsha, Anambra State and Abia State.”
The police recovered six vehicles including one unregistered Toyota 4 Runner jeep, two Toyota Camry cars with registration number AAA391AA, and FKJ441DV, two Lexus jeeps with registration numbers HAL100RF and LSR520DA, a Toyota Highlander with registration number LSR492DX, and a Mitsubishi Pajero jeep with registration number SMK484DS.
Crime Guard gathered that Osa Felix Bright and Chibike Umeh specialised in receiving stolen cars from armed robbery gangs, changing the colour and re-registering the cars with forged custom duty documents before selling the vehicles.
“I never knew the car was stolen”
According to Rev. Titus Onwuchekwa, “I am a clergy man. I bought an SUV from one Felix when he came for a programme in Lagos sometime in November. I actually saw the vehicle at Alaba, where it was advertised for sale. While negotiating with the owner of the vehicle, I told him that I was a man of God and he said that he would use the vehicle to sow a seed into my life. He said because I was a man of God, he would sell the vehicle, a Mitsubishi Pajero jeep to me for N500,000. I paid him N350,000, and I later balanced him N150,000. He said I should pray that God should bless him with more children because he had only had one child since he married.
“I never knew the car was stolen. I don’t know anything about the other Infiniti jeep that he sold. He gave me the car documents which bore his name; he also gave me the custom clearing documents, and they had the same name too. A soldier friend of mine had to help me verify if the car was genuine and he confirmed that it was. I am a man of God and I will never buy a stolen property.”
“I bought mine from my in-law”
Another suspect Ndibe Samuel, a medicine dealer, told Crime Guard that he bought one of the stolen cars from his in-law. “I bought a Toyota Camry for N700,000 last September, 2015. I was in my shop when he actually called me to come and see him, that he had a message for me. I was arrested by the police on my way to see him. They said the vehicle that I bought was a stolen vehicle.”
“I knew it was a stolen vehicle”
For Osas Felix, one of the suspect, there was no need to deny: “I sell vehicles at Berger Yard. A friend brought the vehicle for to me to help him sell. I have known him for over a year. I knew it was a stolen vehicle. I bought the vehicle for N300,000 from him, registered it with my name and then sold it to the pastor.”
“I steal and sell vehicles”
Opeyemi Aregbesola also had no need to deny: “I usually sell stolen vehicles to Osas Felix. So far I have sold about seven vehicles to him.” Crime Guard learned that investigations are still ongoing and efforts are on to apprehend other fleeing members of the gang who specialise in forging documents for the gang.

Come to my village. After building it, you will buy a car again.

The General Overseer of the Deeper Christian Life Ministry, Pastor W.F Kumuyi, has again warned members of the church against celebrating Christmas, saying the annual celebration of Christmas is idolatrous and unscriptural.
Kumuyi warned that partaking in the celebration made Christians to go back from the commandment of Jesus Christ.
The cleric said this on Saturday at the annual national December convention of the church, which held at the church’s camp ground in Ogun State.
He said, “We don’t celebrate Christmas. It actually came from idolatrous background. That is why you don’t hear us sing what they call Christmas carol, Never! We always say it is the December retreat. We are only gathering together because it is the holiday period and love the lord more, and rededicate ourselves more.
“When you find anybody coming in, or any leader, trying to introduce the idolatry of mystery Babylon, that they call Christmas and you want to bring all the Christmas carol saying that is the day that Jesus was born, and you don’t find that in the Acts of the Apostles or in the early church, then you don’t find that in the church either. If you don’t know that before, now you know.”
He warned that any of the church’s leaders that tried to introduce the “idolatry of Christmas” into any section of the church would be sanctioned, while also encouraging other believers in Christ to jettison the celebration as part of their sacrifice to perfection.
Kumuyi said the duty of the church was to make people more like Jesus Christ and not join in worldly celebrations.
“We are not trying to make the church turn like the world. We want it to be like Jesus Christ, and more like the Apostles. If you don’t have that mind with us, then you have permission to go to other places,” he added.
But the Director of Social Communications, Catholic Archdiocese of Lagos, Monsignor Gabriel Osu, in his reaction to Kumuyi’s proclamation, said, “I don’t know what he means by saying the practice of celebrating Christmas is wrong.

The only woman that would have be alow to preach is Mary, but God did not alow that to happen. In Islam woman can never lead a man in prayer. Pastors of today dot make used of KLV of Bible because what they will c there will make them to stop. Every churches have his own Bible.

An end may be in sight for the lingering
strike of the Academic Staff Union of
Universities, ASUU, as the Federal
Government is said to be offering N30
billion as earned allowances to the
striking university lecturers.
According to a top official of the Federal
Ministry of Education, due to the
dwindling revenue base of the
government, it was ready to offer N30
billion to the striking lecturers to end the
strike.
The official believes government’s
position is a sincere approach in ending
the strike amid dwindling revenue
profile occasioned by oil theft and
macro-economic measures aimed at
diversifying the economy.
All the demands of the striking lecturers
had been resolved except one, the issue
of ‘earned allowances’, which they have
put at N87 billion.
The N30 billion, which the federal
government was offering, according to
the source, was in the conviction that
considering the nation’s current revenue
base, ASUU would make some sacrifices
and go back to work in the interest of
the students and the country at large.
The source added that the government
was desirous of a holistic and
sustainable solution to the problems
bedeviling the entire education sector,
with a focus on infrastructure
development, which the federal
government had set up the Governor
Gabriel Suswam-led University Needs
Implementation Committee to handle.
The NEEDS Implementation Committee
had announced on Tuesday, that N100
billion would be made available to
universities for infrastructure
development.

BENIN CITY — IT was drama, Tuesday, at the
venue of the verification of certificates of
primary school teachers in Edo State, as a
teacher in Asologun Primary School, Ikpoba
Okha Local Government Area of the state,
Mrs. Augusta Odemwinge could not read a
sworn affidavit she purportedly tendered as
part of her credentials.
The state governor, Mr. Adams Oshiomhole,
who paid an unscheduled visit to the state
Staff Training Centre, venue of the exercise,
said “if you can’t read, what do you teach
the pupils, what do you write on the
board?”
Chairman of the state Nigeria Union of
Teachers, Mr. Patrick Ikosimi, who was also
at the screening to monitor the exercise,
said that the woman’s failure was “an
embarrassment.”
On arrival at the centre, the governor took
time to peruse some of the teacher’s
credentials and documents presented.
When Mrs. Odenwingie took her turn during
the exercise, the governor, who listened to
her defence, asked her to read the affidavit
she presented, but she stuttered, to the
consternation of everybody around.
Ikosimi, who described Mrs. Odemwingie’s
failure to read a document she presented as
an embarrassment, said the union was in
tune with the state government on the need
to sanitise the school system.
He said: “We are committed to partnering
the government to reposition education in
the state. What this teacher has just
displayed is a show of shame; it shows the
decadence in the education sector.
“As the chairman of NUT, I had written to
the governor that we are in total support of
what he is doing.
“He should properly involve the NUT, so that
together we can fish out the culprits, who
are not viable as far as the system is
concerned,” he said.www.vanguardngr.com/2013/08/verification-edo-teacher-cant-read-own-certificate/

BlueMurder: These are interesting times indeed. When churches were being bombed and christians killed by this murderous group of criminals, i didn't "see" Muslims jumping for joy on NL. But see what's happening now: some NLers jubilating, gloating, posting all sorts of derogatory words. Later, when the tables are turned, they would be back, bleating like goats and claiming the moral high ground. So much for their much-vaunted educational attainments!

It very unfair. Mr Seun should admise dose NLDERS abt dia comment of dose notorious

obowunmi: What's the point in killing innocent people?

There is no point to prove my frnd. Is only God dat wil save us in dis country.

rafhell: Islamist are cursed. Same with whoever they draw their inspiration from.
Where is the fucking peace in this fucking religion.
If you can not spare your brother how will you spare others.
It is a pity because the word love, forgiveness, tolerance does not exist in what they read.
The devil has really worked

What did u think u made in ur comment. Did u knw dose pple dat re killing Muslims & Xtians in large number of dia place of worship? Did urs, ours religions encourage u to kill innocents pple? Neither two of d major religions in dis country tell us to killed. We should mind what we are saying.

Two nights ago, I took a break from
research work, decided to watch news on
local television and catch up with goings-on
in the polity. After the news, I was not quite
enjoying an old movie flick, ‘Broken Arrow’
featuring John Travolta and Christian Slater,
being shown on one of the stations and
decided to flip to another station. My remote
control took me to the 61st Annual
Convention of the Redeemed Christian
Church of God (RCCG) and I was just too
happy to catch up with the Convention in my
living room. Anointing can be anywhere, if
faith is exuded like the Centurion.
Then before sermon, General Overseer of
RCCG, Pastor Adeboye made a special
announcement. The church is to build a new
auditorium, stretching 3km in length and
width, and four times the size of the present
auditorium, to accommodate many more
parishioners, before next year’s convention.
Everyone was naturally excited, particularly
those who get to camp ground late and
cannot be seated in the present auditorium.
Then Pastor Adeboye shocked me with the
following pronouncement:
“We need N1 Billion from ten (10) people, If
you are one of them, please see my personal
Secretary after we finish today. We also need
N100million from those who can afford it, if
you are in that category, please see my
personal Secretary as well. Nonetheless, we
need everyone’s involvement. If you can
afford N50million, N20million, N5million,
N1million to as low as N100, kindly make
sure you participate. How many of you will
build for the Lord?” All hands naturally went
up in delirium.
I could not believe my eyes. I should not
bother myself with how a church raises
money to finance projects but a dangerous
trend is being set and we are made to
believe if we cannot ‘donate’ a certain
amount of money, we cannot see Daddy
G.O.’s personal Secretary. Such ‘privilege’ is
for those that can donate handsomely for
the work of God. Assuming a rich man in the
Convention donates N1Billion effortlessly
and a widow, whose next source of meal is
unsure, donates her last N100; who among
the two should see Pastor Adeboye’s
personal Secretary? Well the answer lies in
Luke 21:1-4 and Mark 12:41-44, where
Jesus Christ acknowledged the poor widow
who donated two copper coins (mite) over
the rich donors and said “Truly I tell you, this
poor widow has put more into the treasury
than all the others. They all gave out of their
wealth; but she, out of her poverty, put in
everything—all she had to live on”.
How do we begin to justify asking members
of a congregation to donate such a huge
amount of money when poverty is smiling at
most of the country’s citizens? The last time
they were told to donate generously for the
Lord towards a University project, as
ordained by God, they all gladly did. The sad
thing is at N510,000 per session for College
of Humanities (100L & 200L), N520 for
Management Science students and N550 for
Natural Sciences students ; Redeemer’s
University is not for a Redeemer whose
minimum wage is around N18,000. So they
have contributed to a project, believing they
are sowing for God, yet cannot send their
wards/kids to such schools. Interestingly,
many of the Pastors (and church leaders)
running private Universities today, all
enjoyed free education (absolutely free,
including free lunch of Rice and Chicken –
every Sunday) under Awolowo’s
magnanimity. Education is now for rich
members only but poor members are not
exempt from donations. Hmmmm!

QUEST FOR PEACE
“War for Peace” has become the unjust
slogan of many tyrants and oppressors on
this earth. True Peace seems to elude
humankind.
Entertainment and Corporate Media does
not provide the peace it proclaims. It has in
reality made the people more fearful, lustful,
violent and greedy. Escapism from faith in
God, humane values and good deeds is their
mirage.
Islam means “Peace” – internal and external.
It is essential, therefore, to know, practise
and propagate Islam to attain peace in this
life and the hereafter.
MEDIA AND ISLAM
Islam, today, is the most misunderstood
religion. It bears the brunt of
misconceptions and hate propaganda.
The powerful mass media, aligned to
deceitful political and corporate interests,
spreads these misconceptions virulently...
worldwide.
While portraying Islam, integrity and
reliability are bypassed by the media with
professional charm and finesse.
Wise and apt Islamic viewpoints are seldom
covered in the mainstream media, whereas
aberrations by a few misled Muslims are
highlighted.
Muslims hardly have any hold or influence
on major media, especially TV. They instead,
exhibit an apologetic attitude and an
inferiority complex.
REACH OF THE TV MEDIA
Today, more 20,000 TV stations around the
globe reach out to 5 billion people
worldwide. Such that TV plays a major role
in shaping public opinion.
With more than US $ 400 billion invested in
TV productions and distribution alone, it is
serious business laden with cut-throat
competition, political manipulations and
corporate interests.
Global scale media mergers in the industry
have led to limiting the viewpoints having
access to mass media, specially the Islamic
viewpoint.
This scenario needs to be countered with a
global reach for the truth of Islam. As the
Qur’an (Ch. 21, V. 18) advises us:
“When truth is hurled against falsehood,
falsehood perishes, for falsehood by its
nature is bound to perish”.

Ubenedictus: correction, he was not fired for being gay, homosexual orientation isn't a sin but a depravity like conscupicience, homosexual acts of sexual nature are considered grave sins and gay marriage is considered an imposibility because marriage by definitioon is between a man and a woman.
He wasn't fired for being gay(possesing a sexual orientation), he was fired for his supposed marriage which is against catholic teaching. It will be imposible to claim to bring kids up in a catholic way when their teachers are publicly living contrary.

A Catholic school in southern California allegedly fired a veteran teacher because he married his same-sex partner.
The San Bernardino County Sun reported Wednesday that 45-year-old Ken Bencomo was fired from his job after teaching at St. Lucy’s Priory High School in Glendora for 17 years.
Bencomo’s attorney told the San Bernardino County Sun the school believed the teacher had “violated church teachings” by marrying his partner after same-sex marriages resumed in California.
Bencomo and his partner Christopher Persky were one of the first same-sex couples to getmarried at the San Bernardino County Assessor-Recorder’s Office after a Supreme Court ruling killed the state’s ban on same-sex marriages. The marriage was featured in the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin on July 1.
Brittany Littleton, a former student of Bencomo, created a petition at Change.orgcalling on the school to give Bencomo his job back.
“As a proud alumni of St. Lucy’s, I am disgusted and heartbroken by this act of prejudice. I believe that Mr. Bencomo deserves to keep his job, and that discrimination against teachers based on their sexual orientation must end,” she wrote.
Littleton told Raw Story that students were shocked to see Bencomo was no longer on their schedules.
“I think many of us would have considered him a friend then and still do now,” she explained. “News of him being fired spread very quickly when students received their schedules and his name was not on them. I was completely shocked and sickened. I didn’t want to believe it was true, but when I verified that it was I knew we had to act.”

The Nigeria Communications
Commission has rolled out
first-ever data on the state of
porting activities by telecoms
subscribers on the four Global
System for Mobile
Communication, GSM,
operators indicating that MTN
Nigeria lost more subscribers
than it gained during the first
two months in review.
The data covered first two
months of May and June,
following the launch of the
porting scheme by telecom
regulator on April 22, 2013.
Airtel Nigeria, however, led
other operators such as MTN,
Glo and Etisalat on porting
gains with 44 per cent and 50
per cent of ported numbers in
May and June, 2013
respectively. The data were
confirmed by the Corporate
Affairs Director of NCC, Mr. Tony
Ojobo, yesterday.
In May, Etisalat came second
on gainer’s table by attracting
29 per cent of the total
number of lines that ported to
new networks. This is followed
by Glo with 17 per cent and
MTN came forth with 10 per
cent.
On the share of porting loss,
MTN Nigeria tops with 49 per
cent; Glo, 23 per cent; Etisalat,
17 per cent and Airtel lost the
lowest number of subscribers
to other networks with just 11
per cent.
Also in June, Airtel led the
porting gainer’s table with 50
per cent. This is followed by
Glo with 29 per cent; Etisalat
came third with 12 per cent
while MTN came forth with just
9 per cent.
On loser’s chart for the month
of June, MTN came tops by
losing 47 per cent of the total
number of lines that were
ported. Etisalat was the third
largest loser with 23 per cent;
followed by Glo, 19 per cent
while Airtel Nigeria lost the
lowest number of subscribers
during the month.
At the launch of mobile
number portability scheme on
July 22, 2013, the Executive
Vice Chairman of NCC, Dr.
Eugene Juwah, had stated that
the porting service, which
allows subscribers to move
freely from one network to
another while retaining their
original number, would prove
wider choice for the over 119
million telecoms consumers in
the country.
It is also expected to help in
improving the quality of
service being offered a
telecoms networks as they
scramble to retain existing
subscribers and attracting
more subscribers from
competitors’ networks.
Already, the scheme has
galvanized telecoms firms into
entering into various network
upgrades running into several
billions of naira with a view to
making each of them the
proffered service provider for
telephone users. nationalmirroronline.net/new/mtn-tops-porting-losers-table/
