A 23-year-old scaffolder broke down in tears after admitting taking part in the looting in Hackney. Christopher Heart, a father of two from Chingford, was found wearing a pair of new Lacoste trainers and a bodywarmer with the security tag still on at about 11pm on Monday.

He pleaded guilty to entering JD Sports in Mare Street with intent to steal and was bailed under curfew for sentencing at Wood Green crown court.

Mamelodi - Bheki Knumalo

imagine being caught for stealing a bag of rice.
not even 1kg.

I can bet that nothing this man knows is not already in the public domain.
He is just bluffing,lves attention and will do anything to sustain this media hype.
if he had 11 bags of relevant tapes,he will release itwithout even announcing it.
the man should just shut up,respond to questions basedon why he is charged and the broken judicial system just pass judgement urgently and let us attend to more important issues.

Don't resign especially since you say he is no longer bothering you.
The fact that he seems fed up with you is no reason to resign.
If you are good at your job he will think twice before disengaging you.
Just stick to your tasks and don't relent in finding a new job.
Wishing you the best.

in all these tales,this sicko has refused to address the reason for which he is standing trial; the killing of Kudirat Abiola.
At the rate he is ranting,it might take months before he comes around to addressing the issue at hand.
It seems he was a human right activist and pro democracy officer who was grossly misunderstood by Nigerians.

All these 45 yr old youth leaders spouting rubbish from every corner of their mouths.

AjanleKoko:
That guy dey earn 120k a week? O.M.G

and he was earning 45k a week at Villa.
if na you you go work hard?

AjanleKoko:
@ bolded, seriously? I mean, Masch is not all that, but I think he trumps Mr De Jong at passing. De Jong can't even hold the ball up. Look at that Nani's 3rd goal. Just put Kompany under pressure. Throughout the game I could always sight the guy by his tatoos, watching the United youngsters pass to each other. Break up play, really?

Yesterday was the first time I watched a City game for full 90 minutes though, so I can't comment on the guy's performance in the past. But yesterday, I did not like what I saw. I can't even call it an ultra-defensive performance.

As per the thread I go open am today.

are you sure that was not Clichy instead of De Jong?i might be wrong.
If Masch's passiig is better,then De Jong needs to stop earning a living from football.
the few times i saw Masch pass the ball beyond 5 yrds,it was often into touch.
You are right De Jong was awful yesterday.

AjanleKoko:
I didn't enjoy my first City game of this season.Milner is also another hopeless somebody, who defends badly, and is worse going forward. Makes a lot of empty-headed runs to nowhere.

a product of the british media hype.
22 million for that c rap?
on around 100,000 pounds a week i am not surprised that he is not even bothering to turn up.
his last season at Villa Park was the season of his life.it will not happen again and Citeh can't move him as no one high on drugs will be silly enough to pay him even half of that salary.

AjanleKoko:
Nice performance from you Scummies. Though it was oftentimes more of City playing utter nonsense than United producing genius.

I wonder how nobody ever noticed that Mr De Jong is probably the most useless holding midfielder in Europe. Can't pass, can't tackle (not without a Bruce Lee action style move), can't break up play.

very unlike you to be so blunt and excessive in condemnation.
I am not De Jong's biggest fan (not any city's fan by the way) but i think he is good.his bruce lee style just masks his genuine ability.
He can break up play nicely,can even pass but the problem is that city are ultra defensive and it makes me pity their fans at times.
De jong obviously had a bad game yesterday but i think he is not all rubbish.
I will have him over Mascherano if not for the bruce lee moves.

on a different note,how far for the customer satisfaction thread you promised me?
Still waiting as i think it will get the limelight it deserves if it comes from you

Dis Guy:
What a dollop!

Yea Sanusi is pushing Islamic banking is because of one man, Dangote!! You need anointing oil!

that is a TKO.

deenee:
P.S-The major shareholders mentioned aboove have made it very difficult for any serious investor to commint to long term capital financing required for the recapitalization.Hence the draconian move by the CBN. Sad though the the investing public (aka retail shareholders) are bearing the brunt of this mess which was not created by them.



http://www.thisdaylive.com/articles/nationalised-banks-winners-and-losers/96132/

Not even the complete picture.
the management installed by CBN were also part of the problem.
they seemed to look for investors that will retain their services and refused to try every scheme in the books to frustrate investors that would not serve their selfish interests.
I said in the past the choice of magt that Sanusi chose for the rescued banks were some of his worst decisions.Not only have i been vindicated by the conduct of these CEOs as confirmed by insoders but it seemed another set of funny characters have been hired for these 3 banks.I know a few who i would not expect the CBN to touch with a long pole.I suddenly see their names announced as part of the mgt of these banks and i simply shake my head in amazement.

Why are you guys wasting your time?
NEXT can publish what they want,it will change nothing.
Does this look like a govt interested in corruption?
Of course she will claim her enemies are at work (typical Nigerian mentality) and her fans will claim she is turning water in to win and is the best thing after sliced bread.
Meanwhile the rot in NNPC continues right under her nose.

you know there is a problem with the society when people are canonizing a killer and psychopath.
Why is he taking so long to name the living who either collected bribe or were used unconsciously like Pa Ige?
How exactly does this tie in with the crime he is standing trial for?
In all his stories,there is not one where he was guilty,he was always the saviour of the masses who was misunderstood and framed up.
Can we pls move unto a more exciting movie?
this one is stale and boring.

Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi, i hope you know that show is immoral and against the teachings of Islam.
I hope you are not being a hypocrite?

amblors:
when i heard bunie ya, i new sth was very wrong, remix of church song.

i guess its in popular demand, but still dem no try.

my exact sentiments.i was more worried by the fact that it was even released as a single to create buzz.i began to wonder what was left in the album.

amblors:
Omoge mi is class.

they've used up their lyrics bank, they can't help but recycle. they're saturated, guess they need a break of like 4years to think of better/different rhymes.

meanwhile the album dey sell sha.

assuming there was ever much in that bank.

mikuz:
Those who claim this album is ok clearly didn't listen to their first 1st 3 albums and don't want p-square's progress!
It was as if i saw it coming!

Abagworo:
P-Square have reached the stage of saturation and needs general overhauling.This same thing happened to 2face on the 1st "Unstoppable" album but he did not give up and had to enhance it with the international edition.

P-square should go back to the drawing table and re-make this crap they just released."Beautiful Onyinye" is good though.

you have a point but i don't agree with you.
why should they overhaul?with the kind of crowd that witnessed there concert last weekend and the sales shooting through the skies and endorsements falling all over the place,they have every righto be convinced that the winning formula is well and alive.This is the age of mediocre music,not just in Nigeria and it is not p2's fault.You and i may not want it but we are a minority.

this is what i don't get about the media.
they are trying to make a hero out of an insane soul.
why give him the attention he obviously craves but does not deserve?
the security agencies should go through every detail of his activities but publishing his demented history in the media achieves no aim.we already know he is mad,just prosecute and jail him.
other demented souls will seek this kind of prominence if we keep giving this mad guy media space.

@alj_harem
you obviously do not understand the dudu osun/dettol soap analogy.
it is figurative.
but i guess your ignorance of the import of that analogy could not get in the way of you insulting me?
i expect you to do better than that.

meanwhile oga what do you think about that customer service thread i suggested?

AjanleKoko:
Sometimes you can't help but wonder what the whole point is

With Stanford it is a bit of a cultish feeling.
a bit pointless from the outside but those of them inside can't quite articulate for outsiders like us what it is.
anyway to each,his own.
I wish him well.

Applying to business school can take over your whole life says Temi Olatunde

“THIS should be straightforward,” I thought, after deciding to apply for an MBA. With a degree from a renowned British university and several years’ work experience in a leading investment bank, I believed I knew how to get into a top MBA programme. You’ve probably already guessed that securing a place at business school proved to be more testing than I anticipated.

Selecting my target schools was not an issue. I wanted to look beyond the smoke and mirrors of GMAT averages, salary stats, career placement profiles, student satisfaction surveys and rankings. I honed in on the schools which would take me out of my comfort zone. I was drawn to Stanford Graduate School of Business. Its programme was rigorous and its Silicon Valley location appealing. But most importantly it was also flexible, allowing me the latitude to craft my academic experience.

The first challenge was juggling the twin demands of my banking job—where I’d just changed roles—and GMAT preparation. I became GMAT-obsessed, poring over Stanford’s stats and playing the odds game in my head. But two weeks’ immersion, with no semblance of a social life, was enough to get me over this initial hurdle while retaining my sanity.

December was tough. My Christmas holiday in Cape Town was hijacked by the application process. Even obtaining recommendations—which I had anticipated would be one of the easier parts—posed a challenge, as I struggled to persuade my closest mentors of the value of an MBA. Equity-derivatives trading, it seems, is not a normal background for an MBA aspirant. Then the pressure of impending deadlines and incomplete essays intensified. The hallmark Stanford question “What matters most to you and why?”, which is often cited as the most difficult of all business school application essays, plagued my every waking hour. I worked to craft a compelling essay that both told my unique story and reinforced my “personal brand”. Knowing the answer was not enough, it had to be woven seamlessly into my overall application.

Panic set in the night before the second-round deadline. My stomach churned as I read the feedback from an alumnus who advised that I delay submission to the third-round. In his opinion I was not ready. Faced with the stiff odds, though, I was not willing to risk a delay, and so I braced myself for a long night ahead. At 5.45am I had no choice but to click the submit button. The final click was the hardest. Commonly reported feelings of relief or elation were absent. Instead, as I walked for my 6.00am train to the City, my mind frantically devised plans to recall the application.

I remember decision day vividly. I spent most of it online on MBA blogs, forums and websites. Then the tales of acceptance calls started to come through. They followed the sun: Asia first, extending westward through the afternoon and evening. Needless to say, when my phone rang, that single call compensated for the sleepless nights, countless essay revisions and nail-biting wait.

Pukkah:
Banning night travel is not the issue and it addresses the effect and not the cause. Since so many people and banks have been robbed and killed during the day, why hasn't day movement be banned? The freedom of people to move about at night adds to country's GDP and also hastens its development.

my comment was made with tongue in cheek.
on a more serious note, i see no reason why anyone should travel at nite.the risks outweigh any gain.

that story of the court room being too stuffy for a video to be played is the scariest excuse i have heard in a long time.

coogar:
the more reason why this story is believeable. . . . .

the others died as a result of the secrets they know(they were possibly killed by the same people). . . . .mustafa has been in jail for 11 yrs, they cannot reach him to slaughter, the others could be reached to kill.

Abrahama Adesenya was not killed he died of old age.
Don't forget that while some people bath with Dettol soap,others use dudu osun.
that baba was one of those who used dudu osun.

When will GEJ forward a bill to ban night travel by mass transporters?

AjanleKoko:
What is it with kids today and text-speak?

one of the many products of your hard work.

another bomb in Maidugiri

that was then.now he knows things he did not know before.

this man will contest and win an election in twenty fifteen.
it is the Nigerian way.
Did you see the crowd praying with him outside the court before he entered?
funny clowns,all of them.

AjanleKoko:
And i like the friendly atmosphere between both benches.

for all his arrogance, SAF acknowledges superior quality when he sees it.
i can only imagine that kind of atmosphere in the next El Clasico.
