SportsFormer FIFA President Joao Havelange Dies At The Age Of 100 by mariodon(op): 1:40pm On Aug 16, 2016
Former FIFA president Joao Havelange has died today, Tuesday 16th August. He was 100 years old.
The sad news of the Brazilian's death follows a series of health problems.
This July, he was admitted to the Samaritan Hospital in Rio de Janeiro due to pneumonia. Prior to that, in June 2014,
Meanwhile in 2012, Havelange's health was seriously under-threat because of a bacterial infection, but he was duly treated and managed to recover. Alas, unable to prevail, his battle with pneumonia was to prove his last.
The former athlete served as the head of FIFA from 1974 to 1998. His tenure as president is the second longest in FIFA's history, behind only that of Jules Rimet. Havelange was elected honorary president in 1998.
Havelange was somewhat of a polarising figure due to the fact that in July 2012, a Swiss prosecutor's report revealed that during his tenure on FIFA's Executive Committee, he and his son-in-law Ricardo Teixeira took more than $41m in bribes in connection with the award of World Cup marketing rights.

PoliticsAisha Buhari In The US Different From Nigeria First Lady Aisha Buhari by mariodon(op): 4:31pm On Jun 24, 2016
https://mariotalkgists..com.ng/2016/06/aisha-buhari-in-us-different-from.html

Investigation into criminal activity in the United States by one Aisha Buhari confirms that the perpetrator is not the First Lady of Nigeria, Aisha Buhari.

According to SaharaReporters, its latest investigation following the circulation of reports that Mrs. Buhari—wife of President Muhammadu Buhari—was involved in a bribe scheme in 2002 in which she wired the sum of $170,000 to disgraced former US Congressman William Jefferson.
The current hysteria around allegations that Mrs. Buhari was involved in this fraudulent transaction as retaliation from the embattled Ekiti State Governor Ayo Fayose, who had some of his Zenith bank accounts frozen by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
Mr. Fayose, who is prone to public outbursts, has been at the center of several high-profile scandals including the Ekitigate scandal in which he faces allegations of using money from the Office of the National Security Adviser to rig the gubernatorial election in 2014. Following the freezing of his bank accounts earlier this week, Mr. Fayose resumed attacking President Buhari and his wife, accusing them of corruption. He has also reportedly been sponsoring fabricated stories connecting the First Lady Aisha Buhari to the William Jefferson scandal.
The genesis of the allegations linking the current First Lady with the $170,000 transaction has arisen from a sentencing memorandum concerning Mr. Jefferson, who was convicted of corruption in the US District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia. In the memorandum, “Aisha Buhari” appears once, on page 22, stating that the money was transferred to Mr. Jefferson from a Nigerian bank account in her name.

New York Times reporter Barry Meier published an elaborate report in 2007 titled “Teed Up: Golf, K Street and Nigeria” which prominently featured Mr. Jefferson, “Aisha Buhari,” and the former Akwa Ibom State Governor, Victor Attah.
Mr. Meier wrote at the time of “an unlikely cast of characters” seeking “a multimillion-dollar public spending spree initiated by Mr. Attah, an ambitious politician who wanted to be Nigeria’s next president.”
According to the account, middle-aged Aisha Buhari entered into the story when, by happenstance, she entered a non-descript Washington DC-based pharmacy and began chatting with a security guard. During that conversation, she allegedly told him that she was the daughter of the former military ruler, General Muhammadu Buhari. Following that conversation, the security guard later introduced Aisha Buhari to DC-based lobbyist Richard Hines.
The assembling of these personalities, more than ten years ago, laid the foundation for the criminal activity that followed.
SaharaReporters could not ascertain when or how the tale of Aisha Buhari evolved from a US-based woman claiming to be the daughter of former General Muhammadu Buhari to the Aisha Buhari, who is married to present-day President Buhari.
However, SaharaReporters investigation into the events around the illegal financial transactions involving an Aisha Buhari and any connection with the First Lady of Nigeria led our investigators to multiple sets of court records in Virginia courts.

SaharaReporters found no fewer than six legal cases involving an Aisha Buhari in the Fairfax County General District Court. The earliest date of these cases in the registry is October 19, 2012, with the most recent heard on March 31, 2016. Most of these cases involve debts or wage garnishment.
Also notable is that one case, which was heard on December 3, 2015, was appealed by a defendant named Aisha M. Buhari at a time that Nigeria First Lady Aisha Buhari was clearly in Nigeria. This is in addition to a pattern of alleged civil and criminal cases against an Aisha Buhari following the incidents reported by the New York Times in the mid-2000s—a time when now First Lady Aisha Buhari was living in Nigeria.
SaharaReporters investigation found that there is another Aisha Buhari, living in the Virginia area: the same Aisha Buhari who claimed to be President Buhari’s daughter but who actually has no relationship with him.
During the course of our investigation, we found that a property was sold on June 27, 2014 by Aisha Buhari to one Chiagozia Agbarakwe for $380,000. Evidence shows that that Aisha Buhari purchased the property in 2013 for the sum of $335,000, putting her in Fairfax County, Virginia, during that period.

In addition to court evidence, property records, and a list of known addresses belonging to an Aisha Buhari living in the United States, the New York Times in 2007 photographed the Aisha Buhari, who claimed to be the daughter of then General Muhammadu Buhari.
SaharaReporters has also obtained a copy of Aisha Buhari’s Nigerian International Passport, which shares the same profile as the photograph published in the New York Times, but she clearly looks nothing like the First Lady Aisha Buhari.
SaharaReporters contacted many of the aggrieved individuals who filed legal cases against Aisha Buhari, or their legal counsel, but none wanted to go on record due to the sensitive nature of their legal proceedings. Several of them did, however, confirm that Aisha Buhari was in the United States during the time her alleged activity took place.

Foreign AffairsBreaking: David Cameron To Quit After UK Votes To Leave EU by mariodon(op): 9:16am On Jun 24, 2016
David Cameron has announced he is quitting as Prime Minister after Britain voted to leave the European Union after a nearly half a century.

In a statement outside Downing Street, and with his wife by his side, Mr Cameron said that it was “not right” for him to be “the captain that “steers the country” in a new direction.
With his voice breaking, he said: “I Iove this country and will do everything I can to serve it” but he added “the will of the British people is an instruction that must be delivered.”
Mr Cameron said he would stay on while a new Tory leader was elected but expected that he would gone by the time of the Conservative Party Conference in October.
“We must now prepare for a renegotiation with the EU. Above all this will require strong determined and committed leadership.
“I think the country requires fresh leadership to take it in that direction.”
Importantly Mr Cameron said he would not invoke Article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty that will start the process of Brexit – leaving that decision to his successor most likely to be the former Mayor of London Boris Johnson or the Home Secretary Theresa May.
A Tory leadership election is likely to get underway within weeks.
His statement followed a remarkable night in which British people voted to leave the European Union after a nearly half a century of membership plunging the country into unchartered political and economic territory.........

PoliticsVideo: Watch Zenith Bank's Management Team Pay A Visit To Allegedly Beg Fayose by mariodon(op): 9:20pm On Jun 23, 2016
The Zenith Bank Plc team was led by an Executive Director, Sola Oladipo, with two zonal directors of the bank and the Ado-Ekiti branch manager. When accosted by newsmen, the ED said they only came to see the governor. Asked whether the bank really dissociated itself from the claim by the governor that it was part of the funding of the election, Shola could only mutter some inaudible words. He eventually said the spokesman for the bank was not on the team and could not say anything.
While commenting on the development, Governor Fayose said the bank officials came to beg him over the issue. "They were begging me and that the matter should not go beyond this level. I asked them why did they go to the EFCC to tell lies. Why did they have to lie that money came from the Office of the National Security Adviser? If the money is for me why did they have to link with me what is not."

Nairaland GeneralMan Stabbed To Death For Gulping Down Alcohol While Others Took Sips in Zimbabwe by mariodon(op):
A Bulawayo man allegedly killed his friend by plunging an Okapi knife into his chest for gulping down alcohol while others were taking sips.

Lwazi Great Mtetwa (22) of Nkulumane suburb allegedly committed the cold blooded murder in August last year following a dispute with Thabo Michael Thebe who was aged 23.
The two were part of a group that was sharing a bottle of whisky.
Mtetwa appeared before Bulawayo High Court Judge Justice Maxwell Takuva facing a murder charge.
He is due for sentence today.
In his defence, through his lawyer, Liberty Mcijo of Mcijo and Dube Legal Practitioners, Mtetwa said he acted in self defence and was intoxicated at the time of committing the crime.
“We were coming from a place called Emadwaleni when a misunderstanding arose between the deceased and Anele Mpofu over the number of sips of whisky that Thebe had taken. I tried to restrain them but they both turned against me and attacked me.
“The deceased stabbed me on the finger with a broken beer bottle while I was trying to block him. I then produced a knife to scare him away but he kept advancing towards me,” argued Mtetwa.
Prosecuting, Mr Thompson Hove said on August 31 last year shortly after 9pm, Mtetwa and Thebe were drinking whisky with friends at a friend’s house in Nkulumane when an altercation ensued between the two.

The court heard that the dispute degenerated into a fight and Mtetwa was defeated.
“Mtetwa left the scene and vowed that he would return and teach the deceased a lesson. He went to his home and returned a few minutes later armed with an Okapi knife,” said Mr Hove.
On his return, Mtetwa confronted the deceased and the fight resumed.
During the scuffle, the court heard that Mtetwa pulled out his knife and stabbed Thebe once in the ribcage and also in the neck and he died instantly.
Mr Ian Ncube, a neighbour who witnessed the incident, said Thebe and Mtetwa were among a group of eight youths who were drinking beer and exchanging vulgar words.
“They exchanged vulgar words before engaging in a fight. During the fight I heard a bottle being smashed and the next thing Mtetwa and Thebe were at each other’s throats and the accused was overpowered and before he left the scene, I heard him shouting at the deceased and threatening to deal with him,” said Mr Ncube.
“Mtetwa returned and the quarrel resumed and the next thing I saw Thebe lying in a pool of blood and when the ambulance arrived he was already dead.”
According to post mortem results, the cause of death was stabbing, heart and lung rupture and hypovolemic shock.
