Lagos State Governor, Babatunde Raji Fashola said May 29
handover should be more focused on informing Nigerians
about the direction the new government will be taking
instead of usual fanfare.
According to him, this is how inaugurations are marked
across the world.
Fashola said “I think we should do what normal countries do
as regards inauguration. There should not be too much
fanfare about this. We should understand that the tenure of
the current administration will end on the midnight of May
28.
“A new President and new government are in office subject
to the constitutional requirement of Section 140 of the
constitution to declare their assets and take their oath of
office. So, essentially, what people see during the day is
ceremonial.
“The law has taken its course at midnight. So, that is the
most important thing. So, I hope at various state levels and
national level, we will hear indicative directions about which
way we are going (on inauguration day)”

In a 92 page document, Kashamu had previously explained
that even though he was incarcerated in Brixton Prisons in
London between 1998 and January 10, 2013, Judge Tim
Workman had verified that the allegations against him in the US was a case of mistaken identity and that the Judge had also found out that the person the DEA in the US wanted for smuggling drugs into the US was his brother, Alhaji Adewale Adeshina Kasamu, who looked a lot like him. He said when that was verified, he was released from prison and he returned to Nigeria to start a business.

He said he was lured into politics by some friends in PDP
and within the course of being in politics he had made
some enemies including former President Obasanjo . He
claimed that recently Obasanjo had been pressurising the
AGF to take steps to extradite him to the US even without a
request from the US authorities.

He alleged that his lawyer, Prince Ajibola Oluyede, told him
in October last year that Chief Godwin Obla (SAN),told
Oluyede that Obasanjo boasted that he was making
arrangements with some US officials in the region to have
Kashamu abducted and flown in a private plane to the US.

He said it was not right and that they were infringing on his
fundamental rights hence the lawsuit against the Chairman
of National Drug Law Enforcement Agency and 11 others to
court over an alleged plot to extradite him to the United
States of America to face trial on alleged drug-related
offences.

Kashamu urged the court to declare as unlawful the alleged
collusion between the 12 respondents and his political
opponents, led by Obasanjo, to abduct and forcibly
transport him to the US.

Apart from the NDLEA chairman, also joined as respondents
in the suit marked FHC/L/CS/505/15 are the Inspector
General of Police, Chairman, Economic and Financial
Crimes Commission, Director General, Department of State
Service; the Interpol National Central Bureau; and the
Attorney General of the Federation.

Recruited officers of the Subsidy Reinvestment and
Empowerment Programme (SURE-P) and Federal Task Force
(FERMA) have accused the Lagos State coordinator of the
programme of owing them three years salaries running into
millions of naira.

The officers during a protest on Monday at the office of the
National Human Rights Commission, Oshodi, Lagos,
southwest Nigeria, equally protested against the fraudulent
extortion of money from them by some executives of the
programme.

The protesters accused their National officers and chieftains
of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Lagos as being
responsible for subjecting them to such dehumanising
condition and extorting money from them, adding that the
management was using the SURE-P/FERMA job to exploit
desperate job seekers for their selfish political gains.

The protesters carrying placards with offensive inscriptions
on it, sang and chanted solidarity songs alleging that they
were mandated to pay outrageous sums before they were
employed for the job, adding that three years after
employment and resumption of duties they are yet to be
paid a dime.

My best game for ever Monopoly

Very funny all in the name of election

Think about it… you find yourself cooped up with your special someone, and then you find yourself about to lean in for a kiss And, just like anyone else who’s new or confused about that particular scenario, you probably ask yourself, ‘ just how should I do this?!‘
Like many other people, you’re not alone. Even though it
happens out of habit, quite a few people get lost or even
outright intimidated by kissing their girl/boyfriend.
Just put these 10 simple tips into practice if you want to be a
pro!

1. Maintain Oral Hygiene & Avoid Bad Breath!
Brush teeth twice – That’s why it’s always important to
make sure you, well, brush your teeth twice a day – or after
a meal – to maintain your mouth fresh and
clean. Maintaining your oral health is probably one of the
most crucial things you can do. Doubly so if you plan on
making use of your lisp regularly.
Have emergency mints – You should also make your
breath fresh, too. Chewing some gum, mints or even using
spray helps keep the mouth fresh even after you’ve
brushed a while ago.

2. Have Well Hydrate Lips
Now, there’s nothing wrong with licking them both before
kissing, though that’s just a temporary fix for the bigger
picture here. It’s uncomfortable to kiss others with dry lips,
so you should at least make sure they stay well hydrate
before you lean in.
However, if you want to have them moist and soft, you
should think about using moisturisers such as:
Lip balms Glossies
Drinking lot of liquids
All these can keep them hydrated!
Just a tip: Drinking water regularly can help to make your
skin well hydrated — and that affects your lips, too!

3. Give Signals That You Want to Kiss Her & See How She
Responds
My 3 Step Test Before Going in For The Kiss
You can start by dropping hints that you want to approach
her, usually through: Before you start kissing her, let her
know. Though, letting a girl know about something that
intimate takes a bit of effort. It’s better to ease them into
things, rather than force—you’ll just turn her off altogether.
Keeping your lips slightly parted (making them look more
appealing).
Giving her gentle eye contact.
Glancing right at her lips.
Even though you might not think so, she’s looking for it —
so, don’t be afraid to invite her into a kiss.

4. Either Close or Lower Your Eyes
While it might look comfortable, having your eyes open can
get quite awkward really fast. So, it’s best to keep them
closed or, at least, partially open when you’re kissing your
lover.
Not only does it make the whole process feel much more
comfortable, but it helps make the mood that much more
tantalizing. If you are a bit nervous about, well, a blocked
view, why not use your hands and arms to draw your special
someone closer? They’ll probably want it, too.

8. Use Sucking, Biting & Licking of Her Lips as Well as Tongue
You don’t just have to kiss — put some more effort into it!
And by effort we mean that you shouldn’t be afraid to mix it
up a little.
When you’re in the act itself, try gently sucking her lips,
usually the bottom one. You can even carefully nibble on
her bottom lip to change it up, especially if it makes her
respond favourably.

9. Do Not Forget to Tease Her!
Teasing goes a long way just before the act. So, don’t just
keep it in one place!
Wrap your hands and arms around her body, wherever
she feels most comfortable.
Talk to her in between and never break your eye contact
when you reach there.
You can even try mixing it up with how you kiss, perhaps
pulling away and meeting her again to play around a little.

10. Add Extra Sensations – Touch Her Cheek & Nape of Her
Neck
Adding extra sensations goes a long way in this act. So, don’t
be afraid to touch her! As we mentioned, get her close to
your body wherever’s most comfortable.
Nape of her neck – You can even rest your hands gently
upon this place, working up to massage her scalp and back
again when you’re kissing her.
Focus on cheeks –
Try touching her cheek too —
it just feels comforting and she’ll really like it!

We are one

The All Progressives Congress will firmly be in control of the
8th House of Representatives as the majority party with over 214 members.

There are a total of 360 seats in the second chamber of the
National Assembly.

Figures emerging from the outcome of the March 28
National Assembly poll, show that APC members are now
214, against the Peoples Democratic Party, which has 125
law makers.

The statistics gives a gap of 89 between the APC and the PDP
in favour of the former.

Three other political parties, Labour Party, the All
Progressives Grand Alliance and Accord Party, share the
balance of 10 seats, bringing the total to 360.

The distribution of the figures shows that the APC has the
highest membership haul from the North-West with 81
lawmakers, as against the PDP’s zero score for now.
It is followed by the South-West, where it won 47 seats
compared to the PDP’s 20.

In the North-Central, the party got 41 seats and left eight for
the PDP.

The APC’s performance in the North-East was 40 as against
the seven seats won by the PDP.

The PDP’s strongest zone is the South-South, where it
produced 52 members, compared to the APC’s three. The
three seats came from Edo State.

Huge debts await Buhari, in-coming govs

AFTER the euphoria of their electoral victories, one of the
major challenges that will confront the President-elect,
Major-General Muhammadu Buhari (retd), and 20 or 21 new governors is the level of debt stock the out-going
administrations will leave behind.

According to the Debt Management Office, DMO, the Federal
Government has a stock of $6.445 billion in external debt
(N1.29 trillion at the rate of one dollar to N200)) and another N7. 9 trillion domestic debt totalling N9.19 trillion, as of. December 31, 2014. This is the equivalent of two years
budget.
The huge debt stock, if not properly managed, can hamper
the delivery of democracy dividends.

They should just tear the certificate into two

We all know that first impressions count, in this case,
impressing your potential future employer is of the utmost
importance.

Often, people apply for a position, without updating their CV
or giving the process much thought. Mistake! This is
(basically) the reason you are still unemployed, friend.
You’re your own worst enemy.

Follow these 10 points and be sure to get a call-back,
and soon...

1. According to bbc.com, potential employers can easily
discern between a generic CV and one that comes with great
effort. So make sure you constantly edit and update your CV
according to the job and department/company you are
applying for.

2. Keep your CV concise with just enough of the important
information. Keep it to two pages.

3. Always, but always include a cover letter to give potential
employers a sense of who you are and how you would fit
into their work environment and company culture. Then
remember to tailor this letter each and every time you apply for a new job, says The Guardian.

4. Don’t forget the basics: personal contact details,
education, qualification, experience and references.
Sometimes, it’s all in the details.

5. Every potential employer would prefer a presentable,
neat and professional CV according to the National careers
service. There are different formats to choose from, but we
say simple is always the best. And please, don’t go too
colourful. Oh, and don’t ever apply using a selfie as your ID
picture.

6. Double check before you press send, eliminate any
spelling or grammatical errors. That is the main sign of
professionalism. Get. It. Right.

7. The Guardian stresses that one should understand the job description clearly before applying. Clearly present your skills that match the requirements, and fill in the blanks with related and transferable skills while upholding your honesty and integrity.

8. Include interests that are useful for the job in active
language, for example: "I enjoy working in a team/ have
excellent leadership skills" - and rather leave out irrelevant
hobbies.

9. Make sure you are qualified for the job. Jobs.ac.uk noted
that before you send out your CV, you should make sure it
matches your interests, qualifications and skills. Otherwise,
it’s just a big waste of time for everyone involved.

10. Always keep a compressed copy of your CV says
studentbeans.com: some recruiters will ask for a shorter
and more summarised version. Therefore, take your most
important information and get straight to the point, keeping
to one page.

Abuja - The Federal Government has reassured that Nigeria
is financially sound and has been meeting its local and
international financial obligations despite dwindling
revenues from crude oil exports, Punch reports.

The Minister of Finance, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, said the
country is not broke despite the cash crunch currently being
experienced contrary to reports.
Also read: Nigeria is not broke- Okonjo-Iweala

She said that with the financial assets the President
Goodluck Jonathan administration had been able to build
over the years, the nation’s cash flow would improve over
time.

She said the fact that oil prices fell by 50 per cent makes it
very difficult in terms of cash flow, but Nigeria is asset rich
and that is why she marvels when people say Nigeria is
broke.

Obanikoro And Amaechi Embarrass Themselves In
Twitter Fight
Obanikoro cast the first stone in a Tweet while boasting
about congratulating Governor-Elect Ambode for his
successful campaign in Lagos State. Mr. Obanikoro lost to
Jimi Agbaje during his primary campaign to run for governor
of Lagos State on the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) ticket.

Former Senator and controversial minister Musiliu
Obanikoro and Governor of Rivers State Rotimi Amaechi
took turns attacking one another on Twitter over the
disputed election in Rivers State.

Governor Amaechi then lashed back at Obanikoro in a series
of Tweets arguing that the Rivers State election must be
canceled due to poll fraud:

Mr. Obanikoro then responded with a series of his own
Tweets by inferring polling irregularities in the north.

Obanikoro then concluded his Twitter attacks by saying
“don’t also forget the history of how you became Governor
of Rivers State,” referring to the widely-held belief that
Amaechi rigged his election in Rivers State.

SaharaReporters reached out to Governor Amaechi’s office
for his response to Obanikoro’s latest Tweets, but they were
unavailable at the time of writing. Governor Amaechi did re-
Tweet some of his supporters pointing some inaccuracies
with Mr. Obanikoro's statements.

Mr. Obanikoro was recently appointed to a lackluster
cabinet position by President Jonathan, after he lost his
primary bid to be governor of Lagos State and after the
revelation of his involvement in rigging the Ekiti State
gubernatorial elections for the PDP.

SaharaReporters could not view Musiliu Obanikoro's Twitter
account because he has since blocked our news organization handles. A SaharaReporters employee had to view Mr. Obanikoro's Tweets on their personal Twitter account.
