PoliticsThe Border Closure Between Senegal And The Gambia Is Affecting Businesses by okwuvic(op): 4:47pm On Feb 28, 2016
Sequel to the closure between Senegal and The Gambia border, a press briefing was held at the Gambia Chamber of Commerce (GCCI) on Friday 26th of February 2016 at their head office to clarify the issues of the border closure. The chief executive officer of GCCI Mr Alieu Secka and his members expressed their concern over the situation as GCCI represent the voice of businesses in the Gambia.

The closing of the border is affecting business both large and small, including local traders. GCCI contacted the Dakar chamber of commerce, Ziguinchor chamber of commerce and TANGO in the Gambia but still nothing is clearly confirmed. Mr Alieu Secka and the president Mr. Mohammed Jagana visited the border between the Gambia and Senegal.

The Senegalese authorities decided to introduce processing of all the transit documentation in Dakar instead of at the border, which causes long delays at all the border posts. It can take up to seven days to get the authorization. Questions raised by different media houses like daily observer, foroyaa newspaper, eye-Africa TV , standard newspaper , point newspaper etc were answered by the Mr Aliu Secka.

Health11 Surprising Facts About Farts That You Don’t Know by okwuvic(op): 5:01am On Sep 25, 2015
How much about farts do you think you know? I guess you don’t know so much apart from the fact that farts could smell real bad.

Find out 11 facts about farts that you don’t know

1. If you think it’s only people who are alive that fart, then you are so wrong because dead people also fart.

2. Fart travels at 11kmhr.

3. Do you always feel the urge to fart when you are travelling by air? Changes in altitude, coupled with atmospheric pressure ramps up intestinal gas volume in your body and this is why you are more likely to fart when you are in an airplane than when you are on land.

4. If you frequently hold your fart, it’s advisable you do that less often because frequently holding in your farts can cause constipation, halitosis, heartburn and hemorrhoids.

5. Lactose-intolerant people are more likely to pass out very offensive fart because they have a tough time digesting dairy, causing it to ferment in the intestine and produce some smelly side effects.

6. Holding in your fart instead of passing it out isn’t something you should do always because when you hold in your fart instead of releasing it, it gets reabsorbed into the intestine’s wall and then mix with your blood which can cause distress to internal organs and even bad breath if the lungs are involved.

7. If you are a smoker, you should quit smoking because smokers are also more prone to passing gas.

8. Have you ever wondered how much gas you pass out each day? On an average, most people pass out a liter of gas each day.

9. You fart more when you are asleep because the sphincter is relaxed, and therefore not on guard.

EventsPageantry: Platinum Nigeria Sets Stage For ‘belle Of African Nations (photos) by okwuvic(op): 4:55am On Sep 25, 2015
The founder and chief executive officer of Platinum Entertainment Nigeria Limited has said that her organisation was poised to unifying Africa through pageantry.

Olyinka Fatima Edu gave the assurance on Tuesday as she introduced a soon-to-hold maiden pan-African beauty pageant christened, 'Belle of African Nations (BOAN),' during a press conference held at the Joint Officers' Mess in Kotu, Kanifing Municipality.

She said: “Africa in her own beauty is exclusively recognised for her fairness in dealings, solidarity, and co-ordination amongst her nations. Various organisations have been established to propel and unify all African countries. Few of these organisations include the Economic Community of West African States (Ecowas) and the African Union (AU). For example, the CAF Nations' Cup is believed to come up so as to create continuity in the trend of unity and progress of the continent through sport. BOAN, in this respect, aligns with the goal of unifying Africa.

“However, BOAN also intends to add the missing link – carrying African women along in the affairs of the continent. Hence, Belle of African Nations can be seen as a unique medium for the socio-cultural unification of Africa. Belle of African Nations (BOAN) is the first of its kind as a socio-cultural Pan-African Beauty Pageant that aims to identify with the unforgettable legacies of African historical heroines, publicising their lives, times; struggles, challenges and victories to the world through entertainment, in such a way that beauty and brains are modelled to birth the heroines of our time.

“The exploits of African Heroines must not lay buried forever. Heroines like Funmilayo Ransome-Kuti, the Woman Activist whose feminism and democratic socialism led to the creation of The Abeokuta Women's Union (AWU); Queen Ahmose-Nefertari (Co-founder of the glorious 18th century dynasty of KMT- called ''The greatest royal family that ever mounted a throne); Empress Candace of Meroe (Formidable and famous military leader); Nana Yaa Asantewa, Queen Amina of Zazzau (Zaria),Margaret Ekpo, Miriam Makeba, Queen Nzinga, Queen Makeda of Sheba, and countless unrecognised others must be remembered and celebrated.”

CrimeBritain’s Borders Trampled: Hundreds Of Migrants Storm Fences To Enter England by okwuvic(op): 5:11pm On Jul 30, 2015
Hundreds of migrants laid siege to the Channel Tunnel for the third night running last night, as they stormed fences and desperately tried to clamber on trains bound for Kent admitting: 'It's England or death'.

David Cameron today blamed the crisis at Calais on the 'swarm of people' crossing the Mediterranean who want to get to Britain and vowed to do 'everything we can' to stop people's holidays been disrupted by the chaos - but experts believe he must wrestle control from the French.

Senior MPs, backed by hauliers, said the British Army should be sent in to restore order because the French authorities had 'lost control' as the Calais illegal immigrant crisis escalated dramatically'.

The deepening crisis has led to 120 French riot police being called up to help the 250 uniformed officers already there but critics say that this is nowhere near enough and believe David Cameron must now send British troops.

Migrants are still easily breaching the 15 mile fence surrounding the Channel Tunnel and jumping on to moving high speed trains or trying to get in or under lorries queuing to get on trains. Outside others will try to clamber on to vehicles heading to the nearby ferry port.

Last night a gang of around 400 migrants stormed the Tunnel perimeter - taking the total to almost 4,000 who got on to the tracks since Monday night - and at least 150 are known to have made it to Britain.

Meanwhile there is mayhem on the British side of the Channel with thousands of lorries backed up in Kent queuing in Operation Stack. For 24 of the past 40 days, the coast-bound side of the M20 has been closed bringing misery to residents, businesses and holidaymakers.

Health9 Reasons You Should Stop Biting Your Nails Now by okwuvic(op): 7:00am On Jul 30, 2015
A lot of people bite their nails, and many even do it without knowing because they have become so addicted to it. A study even found that about 50 percent of people would bite their nails at some point in their lives.

People bite their nails for different reasons: when they are tensed or uncomfortable, when they want to trim their nails or just because they are used to it.

Minus the fact that biting your nails is a terrible habit, it also comes with some health hazards that you should be wary of.

1. THE THINGS YOU TOUCH

If you take notice of the things you touch daily, ranging from the toilet seat to the rails of a staircase and people we shake, not aware of the things they have also touched. Germs can live on these surfaces for quite some hours, and biting your nails would expose you to bacteria that can lead to certain illnesses.

2. COULD LEAD TO TEAR

Biting your nails could have a worse effect on a dry skin. It could lead to a tear of the skin surrounding the nails, and this torn skin can easily get infected.

3. CAN WEAKEN THE ROOTS OF YOUR TEETH

According to a research, nail biting during orthodontic treatment can lead to root resorption. This can weaken the roots of the teeth.

4. BAD FOR TEETH FORMATION

Biting your nails is bad for your teeth formation. It may affect the dental formation of your teeth, make them shift out of their proper position and also affect the manner which the upper and lower teeth come together.

5. CAN MAKE YOUR FINGERS LOOK TERRIBLE

Many people who bite their nails end up having terrible fingers. Biting your fingers can cause them to grow in uneven fashion and also make them look disorderly.

6. CAN DAMAGE YOUR ENAMEL

This is also another reason biting hard on your nails is never good. When you repeatedly jam your teeth together as you bite on your nail, you can cause your enamel to fracture.

7. TMJ DISORDERS

Research has also found that biting hard on your nails can cause temporomandibular joint and muscle disorders. TMJ is a condition that causes pain and dysfunction in the jaw joint and muscles that control movement of the jaw.

PoliticsPresident Jammeh Pardons Political Prisoners, Murderers, Rapists & Drug Dealers by okwuvic(op): 5:18am On Jul 23, 2015
President Yahya Jammeh of the Gambia has used the 21st anniversary of the July 22nd to grant mass amnesty to political prisoners, murderers, rapists and drug dealers serving various jail terms in the country.

In his beautiful speech at the July 22nd Square in Banjul, He said the decision to grant the amnesty is based on the Islamic teachings of forgiveness and his firm believe in Allah and all those convicted of treason from 1994 to 2013 and are now on death row or serving life sentences are hereby pardoned,” he told a gathering of school children and supporters

Mr Jammeh added: “As from today, all those convicted of murder and have served ten years and above are hereby pardoned. All those who have been convicted of possession of cannabis especially young people except repeat offenders are hereby pardoned.

“Those convicted of trafficking cannabis and hard drugs such as cocaine and heroin and have served three years and above and five years and above respectively are hereby pardoned. People jailed for raping women aged 20 and above from 1994 to 2013 are also forgiven.”

Mr Jammeh said he is also granting amnesty to Gambians abroad, who are currently wanted for treason and other offences against his regime.

However, the president said his amnesty would not be extended to four people namely; a cannibal who murdered a woman on a farm, cut her body into pieces and ate part of her flesh; a man who killed his elderly wife and threatened to kill his children for opposing his decision to marry a second wife; and two Nigerian men, Michael Ifunaya Chukwubikem and Agbaeze Ugochukwu Stanley who brutally murdered a British expatriate, Ian Stoke, in May 2012 and people convicted of infanticide.
Mr Jammeh warned all the pardoned prisoners to abide by the law.

“The relatives of all those who are going to be pardoned must be warned that they must never be on the wrong side of the law for the next ten years otherwise there would be trouble,” he said. “Drugs, murder, rape are not going to be tolerated in this country.”

Millions of members of a website set up for cheating spouses are waiting to hear whether their infidelity will be exposed by hackers. The Ashley Madison website promises its 37million members worldwide - including 1.2million in the UK - complete 'anonymity' and has the motto: ‘Life is short. Have an affair.’

But a group calling themselves the 'Impact Team' have threatened to publish names, credit card details and 'secret sexual fantasies' of all members.

They believe the website wrecks marriages and have told owners they will start publishing intimate details about users unless the site, known as the 'Google of cheating', is shut down.

Impact Team say Ashley Madison members should not have anonymity because they are 'cheating dirtbags and deserve no such discretion.'

One British user, called Natalie, is one of the 1.2million scared her husband will discover her infidelity. She says that she started using the site during a 'rocky patch' in her marriage, but has not logged since 2011.

She told The Sun: 'Things with my husband improved and I haven't logged in to the website in years. Now I feel sick to my stomach that my past could come back to haunt me'.

Experts have warned the stolen data could be sold on to criminal gangs or used to blackmail members.

The cyber criminals have already published a small amount of the information online, and say they will continue divulging the secrets of Ashley Madison’s would-be adulterers until the service is closed for good.

The hackers have claimed that even cheaters who have paid Ashley Madison to delete their information from its files are at risk.

Ashley Madison believe the hacker may have been helped by an insider.

The anti-affair group said in a statement: 'Avid Life Media has been instructed to take Ashley Madison and Established Men offline permanently in all forms, or we will release all customer records, including profiles with all the customers' secret sexual fantasies and matching credit card transactions, real names and addresses, and employee documents and emails.'

The website charges members £12 for what it claims is a ‘full delete’. However, the hackers said this service was a ‘complete lie’.

‘Users almost always pay with credit card; their purchase details are not removed as promised, and include real name and address, which is of course the most important information the users want removed,’ they said.

It will be of note that the so-called Impact Team have billed themselves as MORAL HACKERS who want to expose infidelity and corruption in the WORLD.
