Entertainment / D’banj Shines At Radio 1′s Hackney Weekend by Horos(m): 9:11am On Jun 24, 2012
The open spaces of Hackney Marshes normally play host to 82full-sized football pitches and innumerableSunday league kickabouts. Club scouts roam the fields, theoretically incognito.
This weekend, the shouts and referees’ whistles have been replaced by the sound of reverberating bass, as a Premier League of urban pop talent – the likes of Jay-Z and Rihanna – sets up campalong east London’s river Lea. Past the fluttering flags and over the high security fence lies the Lea itself,a river system often aspolluted as the Ganges, according to a body set up to safeguard it, LoveThe Lea…
D’Banj shines Big
As the afternoon gives way there is a revelation in the BBC Radio 1Xtra tent. It’s not the latest rapper, however. Singer and band leader D’Banj is introduced as “the Nigerian answer to Michael Jackson”, and proceeds to unleash Afrobeat party music on to the marshes. It’s notjust Hackney’s sizable Nigerian population singing along, though. D’Banj’s recent breakout tune, OliverTwist, is a singalong for all. On the main stage, rapper Nicki Minaj, all Rapunzel tresses and bondagebodysuit, alternates between her hardcore raps (rudest words left out) and more…

Entertainment / Beyoncé Buys Jay Z $40m Private Jet For Father’s Day by Horos(m): 5:32pm On Jun 20, 2012
FORGET a measly card or a box of Thornton’s Special Toffee, Jay-Z was given a private jet for Father’s Day. The rapper’s wife Beyoncé splashed £25million on a luxury plane for the new dad. The super-bling gift is capable of taking 15 passengers. Our source told us: “Beyoncé thought this would be the perfect way to show Jay how much of a great dad he is.What do you buy for the guy who has everything? If you happen to be Beyonce and you’re married to rapping mogul Jay-Z you buy them a Challenger 850.

The pop superstar presented Jay-Z with his $40 million private jet on Father’s Day. The Challenger 850 is no regular private jet, it features a living room, a kitchen and two full bathrooms.

This is the exact type of present that not only keeps on giving, it keeps on costing, the average flight comes with a fuel cost of $20,000 to $30,000 plus the expense of hiring pilots to fly the aircraft.

Extravagant spending is nothing new for Beyonce and Jay-Z, the couple dropped $1 million on a family friendly vehicle for little Blue Ivy and they built their newborn daughter her very own 2000+ square foot nursery.

You may also recall that back in December 2010 Beyonce bought her husband a $2 million Bugatti Veyron for his 41st birthday.

In January 2012 Beyonce reportedly purchased Jay-Z a brand new pinky ring with a blue sapphire in the middle. The $500,000 present was given to Jay-Z as he celebrated the re-opening of his NYC night club 40-40.

Other celebrity dad’s had more toned down Father’s Day celebrations including Hugh Jackson who went on a stroll with his children and Gavin Rossdale who spent time with wife Gwen Stefani and son Zuma.

Sure not all celebrities went out and spent $40 million on a private jet, then again even some of the most powerful couples in show business do not have the $750 million spending power of Jay-Z and Beyonce.[b][/b]
Health / Nigerians Selling Their Kidney For $30,000 Abroad by Horos(m): 5:28pm On Jun 20, 2012
[b]The global economic crunch that is affecting all sphere of life is really having its tolls on Nigerians abroad who have resulted selling their kidneys and other sense organs for money.

These Nigerians abroad whose lives have been so unbearable for are actively seeking markets to sell their kidneys online and have been making journeys to countries in Asia, – Malaysia and India particularly, to sell usually just one of their two kidneys for over $30,000.

The spoil: N5-10 Million, which translates to about $30-60,000 for the vital blood filtering and red blood cell (RBC) generating organ has become a booming market for them.

www.nigeriafilms.com researchers have just discovered that there is a sophisticated online network of vendors, agents, resellers and hunters, who actively seek candidates, sometimes going to the extent of kidnapping them and supply these usually desperate, hopeful-for-a-quick-fix to life’s financial dreams, young Nigerians, to ready slice-and-pop physicians in shed facilities.

These ‘experts’, we gathered, excavate the organs and ice-box them to the eager transplant centers, thriving with Asians, Middle Easterner’s and Europeans on the waiting list, hoping for that fresh, cheap paupers kidney.

How much do clients pay the harvesting centers for these kidneys? About $100-200,000. And they are teaming on the waiting list. “Sometimes kidneys are harvested with meager remuneration given the ‘donor’, or rather, seller- paid as little as $5,000 for the vital organ, and many others die at operation or soon after,” a source told us.

As you read this article, there are possibly 1000 Nigerians reading it with you, hoping to find a link to the underground network where they can get the hook-up to sell their organs. This is what poverty caused by bad leadership have caused Nigerians.[/b]
Crime / 5year Old Girl Raped At Bolingo Hotel In Abuja by Horos(m): 4:28am On Jun 17, 2012
The rape of a five-year-old girl isgenerating the interest of the attorney general of the federation and minister of justice, MuhammedBello Adoke (SAN), who on Wednesday applied to a Wuse Magistrate Court to take charge of its prosecution from the Police.
The 5 year old girl was allegedly raped at Bolingo Hotel by a certain Godwin Okon, a cleaner in the hotel.
Mr. Ejike Orji, a lawyer from the AGF’s chambers, made an oralapplication to the court to convey the AGF’s interest in taking over the matter because it involved a foreign citizen.
However, counsel to the accused, Suleiman Usman, opposed the application, arguing thatthe AGF could not takeover a criminal casewithout the fiat of an attorney general of the state, taking Abuja to possess the status of a state.
After both sides had been heard, Magistrate Folashade Oyekan fixed Monday 25th June for counsel’s submission ofwritten addresses on the propriety of the AGF’s desire.
Mother of the rape victim, Queen Moses Idris, had reported the matter to the Canadian High Commission in Nigeria, citing weaknessof Police prosecution. But she was advised tofirst exhaust all internalmechanisms before inviting the Commission.
She consequently sought the interventionof the AGF, who instructed a lawyer in his chambers to follow the case up.
In a letter to the AGF, she accused the Police, particularly the IPO of deliberately frustrating the matter by not turning up in court. The house help, Miss. Bright,who was in custody of the minor at the time of the rape, has since been apprehended by the National Agency forProhibition of Traffic in Persons and Other Related Matters (NAPTIP).
According to Idris, her daughter is currently receiving treatment at Kings Care Hospital Abuja, after contractingSexually Transmitted Virus (STV) from 35-year-old Okon. She said her daughter, who was unable to eat, drink or excrete for more than a week, is suffering from “Yielded profubed staph spotterUtlus” and “mellonotigreen mecid discharge” on her vulva.
“We logged into Bolingo Hotel in Abuja on 11th March 2012. Two weeks later, I secured a 28-year-old house help called Bright, through an agency; and on 8th May, my daughter was sexually molested. I will say rape because it has to do with MouthAction,” she said.
“The 35-year-old Godwin Okon, who works as a house cleaner in the hotel, connived with my house help and did anal sex with my daughter. This man is a professional because atthe end of the day nothing happened at the front (vagina). He penetrated my daughter through the anus and gave her his manhood for sucking. The house help, being an accomplice, told my daughter that ‘If you tell your mum, she will spank you,’ so my daughter became scared and she didn’t tell me about the first incident.”
Continuing, she said. “The same thing repeated itself more severely on Friday, the 11th, at about 8pm, when Okon was not working. As a cleaner, he was done with his job by 3pm. But by 8pm,Eliana said the house help invited Okon again to the room, and the same thing happened.
“This time around, my house help, Bright was sitting in the room, pretending to be watching African Magic while Okon sat, zipped down, brought out his manhood and told my daughter to sit. While my daughter was sitting on his lap, he tried to penetrate with his dick. When she felt the sharp pain at her bombom like she calls it, she jumped out and cried and said ‘Aunty bright, are you not seeing what Mr. Okon istrying to do?’ Bright repeated that ‘if you say anything to your mummy, your mummy will beat you.’
“At that point, Okon said he was going and at that point Aunty Bright said ‘go with Mr. Okon and lock the door.’When she tried to lock the door, Okon zipped down again, brought hismanhood and told my daughter to masturbate it, and told my daughter that it doesn’t hurt, that it is very soft. While he wasdoing that, he put his manhood in my daughter’s mouth and said ‘suck it like orange’and she said, ‘while it was in my mouth mummy, I later felt some yacky stuff in mymouth, so at that point, he released.’ My daughter said it is ‘very yacky and she ran away, opened the door and left.”
Meanwhile, THEWILL can report that the management of Bolingohad in the past few weeks spent huge sums to compromise the case at the local police post where it was first reported. They also moved to lobby local media houses not to report the incident.
