UFC Fighter Polyana Viana left a man with several facial injuries after he tried to rob her with a gun made out of cardboard

The thief ended up begging her to call the cops in fear of another beating after targeting the wrong person

Polyana Viana was waiting for her Uber in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil when the thief demanded she hand over her phone.

After the misguided thief said he had a gun, Viana punched and kicked the would-be-robber before locking him in a rear-naked choke.

Viana, 26, kept the man in a submission while she waited for police to arrive.

She told MMA Junkie: “When he saw I saw him, he sat next to me.
He asked me the time, I said it, and I saw he wasn’t going to leave. So I already moved to put my cell phone in my waist. And then he said, ‘Give me the phone. Don’t try to react, because I’m armed.’

“Then he put his hand over [a gun], but I realised it was too soft.”

The ‘gun’ turned out to be a cardboard cut-out.

Viana added: “He was really close to me. So I thought, ‘If it’s a gun, he won’t have time to draw it.’ So I stood up I threw two punches and a kick.

“He fell, then I caught him in a rear-naked choke. Then I sat him down in the same place we were before and said, ‘Now we’ll wait for the police.’”

She said: “I was fine because he didn’t even react after. Since he took the punches very quickly, I think he was scared.

“So he didn’t react anymore. He told me to let him go, like ‘I just asked for the time.’ I said, ‘Asked for the time my ass,’ because he saw I was very angry. I said I wouldn’t let go and that I was going to call the police.

Dino Melaye surrendered to the police after an Abuja high court on Thursday, refused an ex-parte application brought by Melaye to order the removal of police blockage on his residence.

Recall that the Nigerian police in a statement by its spokesperson, Jimoh Moshood, while speaking on the reason for laying siege to Mr Melaye’s residence, said the senator, alongside his ‘armed thugs’, shot one Danjuma Saliu, a sergeant, in July 2018.

London – Maurizio Sarri admitted Chelsea need attacking reinforcements after they wasted a chance to cement their place in the Premier League’s top four with a 0-0 draw against struggling Southampton on Wednesday.

Sarri’s team remain in fourth place, but they are now just three points ahead of fifth placed Arsenal in the race to qualify for next season’s Champions League.

It was a frustrating evening for Chelsea, who dominated possession but lacked any cutting edge, maintaining a worrying sequence for Sarri.

His side failed to score for the third time in their last five Premier League games at Stamford Bridge, raising more questions about Chelsea’s need for a top-class striker in the January transfer window.

“The club knows my opinion. I think we need something else for our characteristics,” Sarri said when asked if he would consider recalling on loan forwards Michy Batshuayi and Tammy Abraham.

Quizzed on the possibility of signing a new forward, he made it clear the responsibility lies with owner Roman Abramovich as he said: “It depends on the board, not on me.

“I have to think of my responsibility with the training. I have to try to improve my players in the offensive phase.

“We played a good match for 80 metres, then we were in trouble in the last 20 metres.

“We have to try to solve the problem. We were in control of every match recently, but it was not easy to score the first goal.”

With Olivier Giroud sidelined after suffering an ankle injury in Sunday’s win at Crystal Palace, Sarri opted to recall misfiring striker Alvaro Morata.

Morata has played so badly this season that Sarri had used Belgian winger Eden Hazard in the central forward’s role recently rather than turn to the Spaniard, who had managed only seven goals this term and none in the league since November 4.

But, once again, former Real Madrid star Morata looked completely bereft of touch and confidence.

It was no surprise Morata wasted a golden opportunity to open the scoring when he met Cesar Azpilicueta’s long pass with a tame header straight at 22-year-old Angus Gunn — the son of ex-Norwich goalkeeper Bryan Gunn.

Having announced the signing of Borussia Dortmund midfielder Christian Pulisic earlier in the day, Chelsea are planning ahead following a season of inconsistent displays from Willian and Pedro on the right flank.

ASUU Strike: Lecturers Walk Out Of Meeting With FG Delegation

The ongoing strike embarked upon by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) may not be ending today as report has emerged that the aggrieved lecturers staged a walkout from the meeting with a federal government delegation.

Premium Times reports that ASUU delegation arrived at the ministry at exactly 5:00 p.m. but no member of the federal government delegation was around as at this time.

The government delegation led by the Minister of Labour, Chris Ngige, arrived at exactly 6:00 p.m while the minister of education, Adamu Adamu, was absent at the time the meeting started.

Before the walkout and at the start of the meeting, Mr Ngige told the lecturers that he hopes a consensus on most of the issues is reached at the end of the meeting.

But the leadership of ASUU refused to comment on why they were walking out of the meeting.

Last week, the minister had said that the federal government has reached a partial agreement with the striking lecturers.

Last Monday, the minister had said:

“We have finished our deliberation for today. I am happy to report that we touched some areas of understanding in implementation from the memorandum of action which we agreed to in 2017.

“Some of these areas we have substantial compliance and some other areas have not been fully dealt with.

“Like the issue of shortfall in salaries of some federal universities’ workers and lecturers, ASUU has given a list to the accountant-general’s office and we have agreed that by Wednesday that list should be cross-checked by the presidential initiative on continuous auditing.

“So, the accountant-general’s office is to get back to us by Wednesday.

“We also have the issue of earned allowances, revitalisation, these are issues of 2009 agreement and partial implementation and we have agreed on the modus operandi to look into the fund situation, this is due to low revenue on the part of government.”

“We have agreed on what we are going to do to make sure that the outstanding amount is handled in a way that all parties will be properly accommodated.

“We also discussed the issue of state universities and agreed also that even if education is on the concurrent list, the universities should be properly funded and staffed so that we do not produce half-baked students from those universities.

“In realisation of this the ministry of education will set up a committee, that would engage the Nigeria Governors’ Forum, and the minister of education has taken steps in that direction to formalise the interaction.

“Thus discussion are fruitful and we do hope that in the next adjourned date we would have had the requisite result on the few agreements reached today.”

Which nation is this….
Where are we going to….
Did our leaders value education…
To show how much importance the elite attach to education in Nigeria, there was a vice presidential debate last week where the words “ASUU strike” were considered not worthy of mention by the debaters or the moderator, Imoni Amarere.

Not even in passing. I felt it.

I was stuck in hellish traffic during the debate, but made sure to monitor proceedings on my smartphone thanks to mobile TV. I was yearning for that question that bordered on the strike of university lecturers and the shutting down of classrooms of tertiary institutions across the country for well over a month now. I could well have waited forever.

Someone would later explain to me that because vice presidents are constitutionally tasked with matters that pertain to the economy by their presidents, it was okay not to bother them with the ‘small matter’ of shutdown of schools at a time when illiteracy is about the biggest challenge confronting this country at the moment.

The Minister of Labour and Employment says the Federal Government is already considering ASUU demands.

Seven weeks after public universities have been shut down, the Federal Government and the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) are meeting again on Monday, December 17, 2018, to end ongoing ASUU strike.

After several meetings with the leaders of the union, the Federal Government has said that talks with the lecturers have so far been fruitful adding that the strike would soon be called off.

The Minister of Labour and Employment, Chris Ngige, reportedly said the government is considering some of ASUU’s demands.

He said, “there are areas that are still outstanding which we are going to address on the 17th. We have the issue of shortfall of salaries, that of some federal university workers. ASUU has given a list to the office of the Accountant General.

“We agreed that by Wednesday that the list will be checked to find out really whether those universities were actually paid and they have to be visited and paid the outstanding lecturers there. So, the Accountant General’s office is to come back to us.

“We have also the issue of Earned Academic Allowance and the issue of revitalisation. These are issues of 2009 agreement. We will look into the consideration and we have identified one area of the fund for revitalisation.

“The federal government organs will be contacted and we do expect that we will have some words for ASUU. Same goes for the earned allowances. We will make sure that the issue of the outstanding amounts is handled in a way that all parties will be properly accommodated.”

Olive oil is the cornerstone of the Mediterranean diet and the health benefits of olive oil are unrivalled, and research reveals more benefits nearly every day.


1. It’s protects against heart disease
The main type of fat found in olive oil is monounsaturated fat (MUFA). These fats have been found to lower your total cholesterol reduce harmful cholesterol levels. It can also help normalise blood clotting.

Reducing the bad cholesterol in your body means your arteries will be less clogged, leading to a lower risk of heart disease and strokes. Replacing butter and margarine with products containing oil will also contribute towards healthier cholesterol levels.

2. It’s full of anti-oxidants
Olive oil contains vitamin E, carotenoids and phenolic compounds, all of which are powerful antioxidants. These antioxidants are said to help lower the creation of damaging free radicals in the body.

Free radicals are groups of atoms with an odd number of electrons that attach to healthy cells and start a negative chain reaction, and can injure blood vessels, damage DNA and create changes in genes that can lead to cancer.

3. It helps prevent strokes
Stroke is caused by a disturbance of blood flow to your brain, due to a blood clot or bleeding. In developed nations, stroke is the second most common cause of death, right behind heart disease.

A study of 841,000 people found that olive oil was the only source of monounsaturated fat associated with a reduced risk of stroke and heart disease. Another review with 140,000 participants found that those who consumed olive oil were at a much lower risk of stroke than those who did not.

Bayern Munich have stepped up their pursuit of Thorgan Hazard. The Belgian has shone for Borussia Monchengladbach this season and has also attracted interest from the Premier League. With Arjen Robben and Franck Ribery set to leave Bayern at the end of the season, the winger would be a natural replacement for one of the veterans. Monchengladbach, however, are determined to extend Hazard’s contract, which expires in 2020. (Kicker)

Manchester City and Barcelona are monitoring German 19-year-old Kai Havertz. The Bayer Leverkusen attacking midfielder has scored six and assisted six goals in the Bundesliga this season and is valued at €55m. (SportBild)

Real Madrid have nearly lined up their first signing of the winter window. They’re close to finalising a deal for River Plate’s Exequiel Palacios, who will join after the FIFA Club World Cup. (Marca)

Inter Milan’s failure to qualify for the knock-out rounds of the Champions League could give a boost to Real Madrid. They may renew their interest in Mauro Icardi, hoping that the 25-year-old striker’s vision of Inter’s future has been dented by the exit and that he is more open to a departure. (AS)

Frenkie de Jong says he hasn’t made a decision on his future, despite reports that he will be joining Paris Saint-Germain. The Ajax 21-year-old is also a Manchester City and Barcelona transfer target, but said “I still haven’t taken a decision,” after the club’s Champions League game against Bayern Munich on Wednesday.

Ekiti State Governor Kayode Fayemi has said those opposed to the re-election bid of President Muhammadu Buhari are eyeing the nation’s resources which they intend to loot.

Fayemi said Nigerians should ignore the people he described as enemies of the country and cast their votes for Buhari, who he said would continue to work for the development of the country and liberation of the masses.
The governor, represented by the Secretary to the State Government, Mr Biodun Oyebanji, spoke in Ado Ekiti, the state capital on Tuesday while receiving members of the Ekiti State Private Sectors Union who are drumming support for Buhari’s re-election.

“Those who are against Buhari’s re-election are the enemies of the country who want to continue to loot the nation’s economy after their 16-year rule,” he claimed.
While appreciating their support for the President, Fayemi assured members of the union that they would be allowed participation in governance in the state.

He said there would be no development when the private sector was paralysed.

The union’s chairman, Mr Gbenga Abiodun, said they embarked on the rally for Buhari because of the President’s fight against corruption, which he said had blocked leakages in all sectors of the economy.

Abiodun urged people of the state to re-elect Buhari “so that the state could benefit from the laudable programmes of the Federal Government such as the extension of the proposed rail project to Ekiti which will in no small measure boost the economy of the state when completed”.

President Muhammadu Buhari’s Personal Assistant on Social Media, Lauretta Onochie, has rubbished the reason given for the meeting between the Senate President, Bukola Saraki and former President Olusegun Obasanjo.

Recall that Saraki and Obasanjo had met yesterday behind closed-doors.

Addressing newsmen after the meeting, Saraki said the purpose of the meeting was to make up for his absence during the formal inauguration of the Presidential library held last year.

However, Onochie rubbished Saraki’s reason, describing it as fake news.

In a statement she posted on her Facebook page, the Presidential aide insisted that the meeting was centered around President Muhammadu Buhari and the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Adams Oshiomhole.

The statement entitled: “Saraki’s Visit to Obasanjo Was to Congratulate him on the Opening of the Library, Not Political – Fake News” reads, “Library that was opened since last year? 17 months ago!

“This guy keeps treating Nigerians as babies. So this must be the conversation that took place between Saraki and OBJ. Enjoy!

Saraki: Sorry Your Excellency, I missed the opening of the library 17 months ago.
“OBJ: Nothing to be sorry about, the library is still open. Let’s look in.

“Saraki: Yes Baba. This is impressive. It smells of the people’s money.
“OBJ: I will pretend I didn’t hear that. This section is for young men with no common sense.

“On your right, we have books for greedy young men in government.
“Next to it is the section for young men who take what does not belong to them.

“On your left are books for the shameless young men who return to their vomit.

“Next to it are books for young men who stage police drama in front of their homes or at the National Assembly. Plus those who jump out of moving vehicles and doing the Tarzan tree to tree jump while escaping from imaginary kidnappers.

“Upstairs is the section for young men who have no honour and cannot spell the word, “Loyalty”. Next to it is the section with books for self-centred young men….
“Saraki: Ha baba, You keep saying young men….

“OBJ: If you don’t like books for young men, you can visit Mr. Ibrahim Magu at the new EFCC building. They have modern rooms with books for young and old people.
Your Excellency your library is beautiful. Thanks for showing me around.

“Yeah right! It was not political.

“ME: Fat chance! Of course, It was totally political. To be specific, it was about President Buhari, Gov. Adams Oshiomhole and APC. We were not born yesterday.”

Everybody has heard of Uber. Well, maybe not everybody. Uber is the service that lets you hail a cab conveniently from your smartphone. The company has launched a new service in India called Uber Go. If you are asking, What is Uber Go?, we explain it all in easy language.

What is Uber Go?
uberGO is a budget service that offers rides in low cost, chauffeur-driven hatchbacks like the Toyota Etios Liva and Maruti Ritz. The trick is that the rides are also low-cost, lower that what passengers pay for an auto-rickshaw.

uberGO is more suited to short rides and quick runs around neighbourhoods, but of course can be used for any basic intra-city commutes. The service was launched in 2014 as “the cheapest ride in town”.

Differences Between UberGO, UberX, and UberBlack
According to the company, uberX is perfect for when you have company, UberBLACK for when when you mean business, while you can use uberGO for your everyday commute and errands.

Again, UberGo is currently available only in India.

Primate Elijah Ayodele of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Lagos, has revealed the year Nigeria will split and according to him Nigeria as a united nation may not exist beyond 2035.

He made the claim during the recent launch in Lagos of ‘Warning To The Nations’, a book in which he compiled all his prophecies covering the 2018/2019 period, The Herald reports.

The cleric also called for the suspension of the 2019 general election in Nigeria.

Primate Ayodele, who was speaking on the solution to Nigeria’s myriad problems, said,

“Practice True Federalism, whereby states will be in charge of their own affairs, taking care of their resources and their people. Let there be no election in 2019. After Federalism, Nigeria will not exceed beyond 2035 before splitting.”

In the same vein, Primate Ayodele charged the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to field Senate President Bukola Saraki if it hopes to win the 2019 presidential election.

The popular prophet stated that contrary to what many may believe, he neither had any links with Saraki nor was paid by the senate president to say what he did.

He said:

“I do not know Saraki neither do we have any link, politically or otherwise. But he is the only man who can win anything for PDP. Bukola Saraki being president will change many things for good in Nigeria and there will be peace in Nigeria.

” God needs Saraki to rule for another four years.”

He also prophesied challenging times for Nigeria and the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
Primate Ayodele further said that the party might find it difficult to retain power in Osun, where the gubernatorial election is scheduled to hold on September 22.

“If Osun APC didn’t put their house in order, they will find it difficult to retain Osun state,” he predicted.

Barcelona defeated Sevilla 2-1 to win the first ever one-legged Spanish Super Cup game played in Morocco on Sunday.

Goals from Ousmane Dembele and Gerard Pique cancelled out a goal from Pablo Sarabia for Sevilla.

The win saw Lionel Messi lifting his first trophy as Barcelona captain. It was the Argentine’s first match as captain since taking over from Andres Iniesta who has switched to Japanese league.

The win was the sixth time in nine years that Barcelona lifted the Spanish Super Cup.

Sarabia put Sevilla ahead when the video assistant referee gave a goal which had been ruled out for offside.

But Pique levelled from close range before Dembele then fired Barca into the lead.

Ben Yedder had a chance to restore parity from the penalty, but Marc-Andre ter Stegen saved a last-minute penalty as Barcelona clinched their first title of the season.

Boston, Massachusetts, USA : Men who most frequently wore boxers had significantly higher sperm concentrations and total sperm counts when compared with men who did not usually wear boxers, according to new research led by Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. The findings of this study, conducted in the Fertility Clinic at Massachusetts General Hospital, suggest that certain styles of men’s underwear may inhibit production of sperm.

“These results point to a relatively easy change that men can make when they and their partners are seeking to become pregnant,” said Lidia Mínguez-Alarcón, lead author of the study and research scientist at the Harvard Chan School.

The study will be published on August 8, 2018 in Human Reproduction.

While previous research has shown that elevated scrotal temperatures can adversely affect testicular function, studies on whether and how different styles of underwear may impact sperm production have been inconsistent.

For this study, the largest of its kind to look at underwear and semen quality, researchers collected information and semen samples from 656 men who were part of couples that were seeking treatment at a fertility center. The men, who were between the ages of 32 and 39, completed a survey that included questions about the style of underwear they wore in the previous three months. Options included boxers, jockeys, bikini, briefs, and other.

Among the study participants, 53% reported usually wearing boxers. Analysis of semen samples showed that these men had 25% higher sperm concentrations and 17% higher total sperm counts when compared with men who did not primarily wear boxers. Men who wore boxers also had higher percentages of motile sperm, or sperm that are capable of moving through the female reproductive system and fertilizing an egg. The most significant difference in sperm concentration was seen between men who wore boxers and men who wore jockeys and briefs.

In addition, analysis of blood samples collected from 304 of the study participants showed that men who wore boxers had 14% lower levels of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) compared with men who didn’t wear boxers. FSH is known to play an important role in male fertility and is associated with sperm production. The simultaneous presence of lower sperm counts and higher FSH among men wearing tight-fitting underwear suggests the presence of a compensatory mechanism whereby the decreased sperm production among men in tighter underwear signals the brain to boost production of hormones that stimulate the activity of the gonads to try to increase sperm production.

National Chairman of All Progressives Congress (APC), Mr Adams Oshiomhole, has asked President of the Senate, Dr Bukola Saraki, to resign honourably or be impeached.

According to him, Mr Saraki never acted in the nation’s interest as he claimed.

Oshiomhole stated this on Friday in Abuja at a news conference, and said that Saraki had always been concerned about his personal interest and how he would remain in power.

“The President of the Senate raised the issue that he had always acted not on the bases of his own personal interest, but on national interest.

“The truth is that it is doubtful if he has ever acted either on national interest or in the interest of his own political party before his recent defection,” he said.

He alleged that while in the APC, Saraki connived with the Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP) to become the President of the Senate and thereby conceded the position of the Deputy Senate President to the opposition.

The chairman said that Saraki did that to obtain the support of the opposition to become the President of the Senate.

He noted that the action portrayed Saraki for who he was – a person whose personal interest always came first before any other interest, including national interest.

Oshiomhole said Saraki did not stop at that, but went further to appoint senators to head strategic committees whose activities could affect the workings of government and the relationship between the Executive and the Legislature.

He added that Saraki traded such sensitive positions to continue to protect himself against the wish of his party as Senate President.

According to him, the only thing that is constant in Saraki’s mind is how to remain in power even if it is at the expense of his party or the country.

The chairman disclosed that issues had been raised over whose interest the legislature under Saraki was serving, especially with regards to the budget.

He said that while Nigerians expected the APC-led Federal Government to make up for lost time this year in terms of budget implementation and addressing critical infrastructure, the Senate under Saraki was frustrating its efforts.

“The Senate under Saraki chose this period to delay the budget up to the first half of the year.

“This is to coincide with the period of rainy session to make the completion of those aspect of infrastructure, such as road, difficult.

“This was designed to frustrate the capacity of President Muhammadu Buhari to address critical infrastructural deficit,” Oshiomhole said.

He, however, maintained that Saraki must be impeached in accordance with the Constitution, adding that he would not be the first or the last President of the Senate to be impeached.

“He will definitely be impeached according to law and democratic norms; the only way Saraki can avoid impeachment is for him to do what is honourable.

“This again, led to the issue of character we saw in Sen. Godswill Akpabio who was the PDP leader in the Senate.

“Once he made up his mind to leave the PDP, even before announcing his defection, he wrote to his party as a man of honour, informing them of his resignation.

“Sen. Saraki has demonstrated neither character nor being a man of honour; once he made up his mind to leave the APC, the honourable thing for him to do is to resign,” Oshiomhole said.

Prof. Itse Sagay (SAN) has disowned some fraudulent emails being sent in his name to defraud Nigerians.

The Chairman, Presidential Advisory Committee Against Corruption in a statement on Friday, urged Nigerians to disregard the email profitsesagay001@gmail.com.

The statement read in part, “Please find attached below a ‘419’ e-mail by which a fraudster is attempting to use my name to scam money from innocent but gullible Nigerians.

“Although the clear illiteracy of the scammer should reveal to anyone that I am not the author of the letter, I still feel that Nigerians should be made aware that the e-mail is from a criminal who intends to deprive them of their hard earned money.”

In the scam email, Sagay is quoted of telling contractors that he is in charge of probing government contracts and asking contractors to write him in order to get their money.

Senate President Bukola Saraki has described the call by the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomhole, to get him impeached as wishful thinking.

A statement signed by his Special Assistant, Yusuf Olaniyonu, on Friday, said the APC will continue to dream about their plan to impeach him as they need 73 senators to lawfully remove him.

“The position of Oshiomhole and his cohorts in the APC that the Senate President must resign is a mere wishful thinking.

“They will continue to dream about their planned removal of the Senate President. They will need 73 Senators to lawfully remove Dr Saraki and they will never get that in the present eight Senate,” Olaniyonu said.

Furthermore, he said the argument of the APC that the Senate President must come from a majority party, that the Senate presidency is their crown and that the National Assembly is their palace, is only supported by ignorance and dangerous delusion.

He explained that Section 50 (1) (a) of the constitution is clear that any Senator can be elected as Senate President.

Olaniyonu also stated that it was hypocritical to think that the same APC had jubilated when Honourable Aminu Tambuwal retained his position after he defected from the PDP, even when his new party was in the minority.

He, however, maintained that the issue of which party is in the majority will only be resolved when the Senate resumes.

Olaniyonu, therefore, stated that all efforts by the APC chairman to impeach the Senate President will remain an exercise in futility.

“We hereby assure this garrulous, tactless and reckless APC chairman that a million of Adams Oshiomhole cannot remove Saraki as Senate President.

“His illegal plots can only feed his insatiable ego and keep him awake at nights. But it will remain an exercise in futility,” the statement read in part.

Senator Rafiu Adebayo Ibrahim representing Kwara South has disclosed that lawmakers belonging to the Parliamentary Support Group, PSG, allegedly received the sum of $1 million each to impeach the Senate President, Bukola Saraki and his Deputy, Ike Ekweremadu.

The lawmaker made this disclosure in an interview with newsmen at the National Assembly.Senator Ibrahim, who is a member of the Pro-Saraki group, also protested the invasion of the National Assembly by officers of the Department of State Services, DSS, and the Police Force.

He said, “I can authoritatively tell you that those senators behind the desecration of the National Assembly collected $1m each to impeach the Senate President and his Deputy. You can quote me anywhere on this.”

In a related development, another prominent member of the Pro-Saraki group, Senator Dino Melaye representing Kogi West district, accused the National Chairman of the All Progressive Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomhole, of collecting signatures of lawmakers with the aim of effecting a leadership change in the upper chamber of the National Assembly.

Melaye, while bringing his colleagues up to speed on the plot by members of the PSG, said the APC National Chairman was in a meeting with pro-Buhari senators to collect signatures for Saraki and Ekweremadu’s impeachment.

“The Chairman of APC is currently meeting with some APC Senators. As I speak, we understand he is collecting signature for the Senate President’s impeachment.“We also understand that after collecting the signatures they will be proceeding to the National Assembly to carry out their plan. We are waiting for them,” the lawmaker asserted.

Dino Melaye reacts to calls for Saraki’s resignation, says ‘Adams Oshiomole is suffering from brain arthritis


Senator Dino Melaye has berated APC National chairman, Adams Oshiomole, for calling on Senate President Bukola Saraki to resign form office following his recent defection from APC to PDP.
Shortly after the defection, Oshiomole had called for Saraki’s resignation, stating that Saraki, cannot continue to occupy a seat and a crown that is meant for the ruling party. According to Oshiomole, what is honorable for Saraki to do is to relinquish the crown and the seat he occupies after defection.
Reacting to Oshiomole’s comment, Melaye in an interview with newsmen, said Oshiomole’s comment is as a result of him suffering from brain arthritis.
”For those who are saying that Saraki should resign (as Senate President), I am so disappointed in the National Chairman of APC. He was very busy with labour and social issues that he did not take time to look at the Constitution and our extant laws to know that crowns are worn in the kingdoms, villages and communities; that there is no crown in the National Assembly. He has appropriated the seat of the Senate President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria to a political party. That is intellectual stagnancy. He has exhibited what can only be as a result of brain arthritis.
“I cannot understand why the national chairman of a party will not know that the seat of the Senate president is of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and has no party affiliation. Then, he appropriated the seat to APC, forgetting that even those who elected the Senate President were from the PDP. The PDP gave the Senate President 42 votes out of the 53 votes that he got on the day of election. So, the APC is the minority, even in the election of the President of the Senate.
“But the National Chairman of the APC, in his ‘bolekaja’ approach to life, myopically, intellectually stagnantly… anyway, you can’t give what you don’t have.” he said

On Sunday, five people died when a small plane crashed in a Southern California parking lot. The twin-engine Cessna plane crashed in Santa Ana, and had been bound to John Wayne Airport in Orange County, said Capt. Tony Bommarito, the public information officer with Orange County Fire Authority.

There were no survivors on the airplane, he said.

The plane crashed just a block away from South Coast Plaza, a large mall. There were no injuries on the ground. The plane hit an unoccupied, parked vehicle on the ground, but the owner was in a store at the time of the crash, Bommarito said.

The Cessna 414 aircraft had declared an emergency before the incident, according to the Federal Aviation Administration. The agency will investigate and the National Transportation Safety Board will determine the cause of the accident, the FAA said in a tweet.
