Sometimes the other guy might not really treat her like sh1t but he aint a good guy still. because it really takes more than a lot to be a good guy. And that is something majority of girls don't seem to realize until its too late.

Price Increase: We Didn’t Disobey Court Injunction –MultiChoice

April 16, 2015

John Ugbe, Managing Director, MultiChoice Nigeria

Multichoice Nigeria Limited, owners and operators of DStv, has described as inaccurate publications, news reports
and commentaries on various media platforms that it disobeyed an interim injunction restraining it from enforcing
the increase in subscription rates for its programmes bouquet.
The position of the pay TV company was contained in a statement signed by Mrs. Kemi Shaba of the MultiChoice Legal Department on Thursday.
The statement noted that as at 2 April, when the Federal High Court granted the orders of interim injunction, the price increase had already taken effect, having commenced on 1 April 2015.

“The status quo as at 2 April 2015 when the order was made was that the prices had already been increased,” the statement issued in Lagos read.
“MultiChoice thus reiterates that it is not in breach of or disobeying the order of interim injunction made by the Federal High Court on 2nd April 2015,”
the statement said. It would be recalled that on 2 April,
Justice C.J Aneke of the Federal High Court, Lagos, granted an interim injunction, ordering parties to a suit
challenging the new subscription rates announced by MultiChoice to maintain the status quo and it restrained
MultiChoice from enforcing its planned increase in cost of different classes of viewing or programmes bouquet. The court adjourned hearing in the suit till 16 April (yesterday).

MultiChoice was served with the orders on 8 April.
The statement further explained that that the contract agreement between MultiChoice and all its subscribers
(including the parties who filed the suit) explicitly states that MultiChoice
reserves the right to change prices and channels.
This fact, it added, was not disclosed to the court before the orders of interim injunction was obtained.
The statement also said as a result, MultiChoice’s lawyers, on Thursday, filed processes challenging the court’s jurisdiction to entertain the matter and make the order of interim injunction of 2 April.
The company’s lawyers have similarly filed processes seeking to set aside the
interim injunction on several grounds. One of these is whether a court is legally empowered to fix prices for a
private concern such as MultiChoice in a free-market economy, the model that exists in the country.

MultiChoice also insists that its challenge of the jurisdiction of the court
and the application to set aside the order make the interim injunction unenforceable until the determination of the court’s jurisdictional competence.
“When the suit came at the Federal High Court on Thursday, our lawyers raised all these issues before the honourable court and the matter was
adjourned to 5th May 2015 for hearing of the application challenging jurisdiction of the court,” the company said.

MultiChoice maintains that it notified the general public and DStv subscribers that, with effect from 1 April 2015, it
would effect an increase in prices charged for its services.

The writer lacks basic knowledge of history. He writes as if Abiola liked democracy. Abiola was a sponsor of coup and scuttled Awolowo's chance of ruling Nigeria.
And that dream of ruling nigeria one day was what made awolowo commit all the atrocities he committed in order to please the north and be given the opportunity to rule.

But then it is only God that crowns a king. And his inability to achieve his dream after all the evils he had pepertrated towards that end, left him a sad man to death.

Crime(UPDATED) I Also Abducted Magodo Children – Nanny by illiad(op): 6:40pm On Apr 16, 2015
The nanny, who kidnapped three Lagos children in the Surulere area of Lagos State last week, who called herself Mary
Akinloye, has confessed that she also kidnapped the two kids (Raphael and Michael Esharegan) and from the Magodo area of the state, who were kidnapped last year.

Akinloye (not her real name) was arrested on Wednesday evening in the Shasha area of Lagos by the Nigerian Police Force after she was tracked by
“technological tools.”
She said her team, which consisted of her brother-in-law, sister-in-law, her husband and herself, collected N2m for
the Magodo kidnap, which occurred December last year.

She had been employed as a maid by the Magodo couple through the same OLX, an online sales portal.

The suspect added that after the ransom was paid, she was given N30, 000 as her share.
She revealed that her real name was not Mary Akinloye and she was not 23-year- old.

Speaking in Yoruba, she begged the Orekoya family to forgive her. “It was not my fault. Mrs Orekoya, you were very nice to me and you took care of me. I was pushed to do it,” she said.
The suspect has four children.

Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Kayode Aderanti, has said early on Thursday that the police had arrested self-styled Akinloye, who kidnapped three children in the Surulere area of Lagos State.
Aderanti spoke on Thursday morning on a live Channels TV programme, Sunrise Daily.

Police Public Relations Officer of the command, Kenneth Nwosu, said Akinloye was arrested by the Special Anti-Robbery Squad while a manhunt was ongoing to
apprehend other fleeing accomplices of the househelp.
Nwosu, a Deputy Superintendent of Police, added, “She was nabbed by SARS in the Sasha area (of Akowonjo, Lagos).

She was arrested alone, and is now in police custody. Efforts are on to arrest other fleeing accomplices, if any. “She is still making confessional
statements.”

How Boko Haram exploits, rapes abducted girls — Report
April 15, 2015 Premium Times

Human Rights group, Amnesty International, on Tuesday said no fewer than 2,000 women and girls have been abducted by Islamist group Boko Haram in the past 15 months.
The group, which said this is in a report based on almost 200 witness accounts, added that many of victims were being trained to fight.
“Young women and girls are abducted, imprisoned and in some cases raped, forcibly married and made to participate in armed attacks, sometimes on their own towns and villages,’’ the group said.
A 19 year-old girl, Aisha, told Amnesty how she was abducted during a wedding in September along with her sister, the bride and the bride’s sister.
Boko Haram took them to a camp in the town of Gulak in Adamawa where the bride and the bride’s sister were forced to marry insurgents.
She said herself and no fewer than 100 other women and girls were taught how to fight and kill.
“I was among the girls trained to shoot. I was also trained on how to use bombs and how to attack a village.
“Then they started sending some of us to operations. I went on one operation to my own village.
She said during three months of captivity she was raped, sometimes by groups of up to six fighters.
Aisha said she also saw Boko Haram members killing no fewer than 50 people, including her sister.
Amnesty documented war crimes and crimes against humanity committed by Boko Haram, including the killing of over 5,500 civilians in north-east Nigeria in the past 15 months.
Boko Haram has killed an estimated 14,000 people since 2009.
It said the group would take the women and girls they abducted directly to camps or move them to houses in towns and villages.
They would later indoctrinate them with their version of Islam in preparation for marriage.
Men and boys are regularly conscripted or executed.
According to the report, Boko Haram attacked and raided over 300 towns and villages in the past 15 months.
The insurgents target the military or police, capture arms and ammunition which they then used against civilians.
They would shoot anyone trying to escape, rounding up and executing men of fighting age.
Alhaji, 18, told Amnesty he had been captured and was waiting to be killed after Boko Haram took over the town of Madagali on December 14.
“They killed 27 people in front of me.
“I was counting every one of them because I wanted to know when my turn would come,’’ Alhaji said, adding that over 100 men who refused to join the terrorists were executed that day.
A 15-year-old boy, spared due to his disability, said he witnessed ten stoning.
“They stone them to death on Fridays. They will gather all the children and ask them to stone.
“I participated in the stoning; they will dig a hole, bury all the body and stone the head. When the person dies, they will leave the stones until the body decays,’’ he said.

You people lie like you are the only people on earth.

You people were dancing that igbos don't get killed and only Yoruba do can now rest. Foolish chest beater suffering from inferiority complex can see that you are not invinsible. You lied through your teeth and when caught you start singing a different tune. Satan's children celebrating evil.

Check more links and stop lying, vagabond.
Why are you crying? You people should organize yourselves like igbo youths do in the east and attack back whenever you're attacked. Its that simple. Fulanis are marauders who's religion permits murder unlike Christianity. And so they kill at will and it could be anywhere even in the east. But whenever they attack anyone in the East they are killed. Any of them that is caught is killed. But you people in the west can't even summon enough courage to condemn their killing of your people not to talk about attacking back.

Pls stop attacking Igbos and rather expend your energy in getting back at those who are killing your people.

Or has any member of your family been at anytime killed by an Igbo man? NO!

PoliticsNigerians Expect A Lot From You, Obasanjo Tells Buhari by illiad(op):
Nigerians expect a lot from you, Obasanjo tells Buhari

April 15, 2015 Sani Tukur

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has urged the President-elect Muhammadu Buhari to realize that Nigerians are expecting a lot from him when he eventually takes over power
May 29.

Mr. Obasanjo is currently in Sudan as an AU observer in the country’s presidential election.

PREMIUM TIMES spoke to him, Wednesday, on Mr. Buhari’s victory.
Mr. Obasanjo said he was not ready to “say too much” about the election but noted that Nigerians have passed a message to the retired general by asking for change. “Nigerians have done what needed to be done,” he said. He also called “what has happened” Phase 1. He said Phase2 would be how the new government establishes itself.
“Everybody needs to know that expectations are high,” he said.

Mr. Obasanjo wrote a letter to Mr. Buhari after the latter was declared winner of the election and asked the president-elect to pay more attention to institutional reforms in Nigeria.
Mr. Obasanjo said Nigeria had
been unnecessarily over-heated before and during the campaigns and divisive tendencies were openly displayed. He urged Mr. Buhari to “heal” the wounds following the intense
electioneering campaigns. Mr. Obasanjo particularly asked Mr. Buhari to give the Nigerian Military a cursory look and return
it to the path of professionalism.
“I know that in victory, you will be
magnanimous to start binding the wounds and
bitterness occasioned by the campaign and
the evil disciples,” Mr. Obasanjo had said in
the letter.
“With so much harm already done to many
national institutions, in lauding the military,
which proudly nurtured you and me, you will
have a lot to do on institution reform,
education, healthcare, economy,
infrastructure, power, youth employment,
agribusiness, oil and gas, external affairs,
cohesiveness of our nation and ridding our
land of corruption. Your varied and wide
experience will undoubtedly stand you in
good stead.”
Although, Mr. Obasanjo, who recently tore
his Peoples Democratic Party membership
card, has not joined Mr. Buhari’s party, the
All Progressives Congress, APC, many
Nigerians believe he voted for the former
head of state in the March 28 presidential
election.

Mr. Obasanjo was instrumental to the
emergence of Goodluck Jonathan as
president, but fell out with Mr. Jonathan after
the president declared his intention to run for
a second term. Mr. Obasanjo consistently claimed that Mr. Jonathan promised to remain in power for a single term before handing over to someone from northern Nigeria.

This is why I laugh when Igbos, Yorubas and whoever else in the south argue amongst each other about their 'differences'.

Even after all the silly talk of Lagoons and drowning, not one Yoruba speaking person was responsible for the deaths of an Igbo speaking person in Lagos, vice versa.

Regardless of what anyone might tell you Yorubas are perfectly safe (and welcome) in Enugu, safe in Aba, safe in Port Harcourt, safe in Calabar, safe in Uyo - why is it that they are not safe in Ilorin?

Blaming the Igboman for Nigeria's problem is a ruse to distract from the real cause. Stop allowing yourselves to be deceived.
Lovely.
Maybe someday Igbos&Yorubas would realize that Coolio had been right with his Gangster's Paradise.
