Politics / U.S. Terrorism Experts Arrive In Nigeria Jan 2016 by oluvick(m): 8:08am On Dec 03, 2015
Govt, Israel partner on internal security,
counter-terrorism

US Ambassador to Nigeria James
Entwistle revealed this yesterday in
Abuja during a courtesy call on the
Minister of Interior, General
Abdulrahman Dambazau (rtd), in his
office.

Entwistle said his country had concluded
plans to send a team to Nigeria by
January, as part of efforts to end all
forms of insecurity in Nigeria and the
world at large.

“We are ready to partner with you on
security. As you know the Security
Governance Initiative (SGI), we will be
having a team here in January in this
regard. It is an attempt to approach the
need to reform democracy in order to
improve security performance. This
project will be done with the Nigerian
government,” and assured the minister
of total support to combat insecurity.

In a similar development, Nigeria and
Israel have agreed to engage in a
partnership that will put an end to the
incidents of insurgency and terrorism
and challenges of internal security
threatening the country’s stability and
corporate existence.

This was revealed yesterday when the
Ambassador of Israel, Uriel Palti paid a
courtesy visit to the Minister of Interior,
General Abdulrahman Dambazau (rtd) in
Abuja.

Palti, who said the major challenge of
dealing with the country’s internal
security lies within the jurisdiction of
the Interior ministry, said, “The fight
against terrorism is an issue affecting
four other countries in the West African
sub-region including Nigeria. It is an
issue affecting the world as a whole. We
look forward to partnering with you for
mutual interests in the future.”

Responding, the minister of Interior who
expressed gratitude to the US
ambassador, assuring that the Nigerian
government will partner with the US to
ensure fruitful implementation of the
project said, “We want to assure you that
we will fulfill our own part of the
partnership and we are confident that
you will fulfill your own part also.”

Speaking earlier, Ambassador Palti, who
said he had been mandated by the Prime
Minister of Israel, Mr. Benjamin
Netanyahu to do everything possible to
strengthen relations between Israel and
Nigeria in areas of bilateral interests,
added, “we have the experience and we
will work with you. We will collaborate
with you in the areas of counter-
terrorism and strengthening of your
internal security.”

Politics / Opinion: The Monumental Lies Of Muhammadu Buhari by oluvick(m): 8:03pm On Nov 04, 2015
General Muhammadu Buhari said he had only one million Naira in his account before he became president and 150 cows to his name and you jumped, clapped and said, “Yes, that is a man with integrity. He is dirt poor.”

Shortly after the elections and without declaring his assets publicly you realised that Buhari has N30 million in his UBA personal account and owns a palatial home in Abuja worth over N2 billion. You said, “It is okay, Buhari is a man of integrity. He can own a house anywhere. He is not as rich as IBB, Abdulsalam, or Danjuma.” Instead of you to call him out for what he is, a man of questionable character.

He said he borrowed N27 million to buy his nomination form to run for president on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and you clapped for him that he is so poor he had to borrow money and no president had ever been so poor.

A few weeks later, the wife of a “poor” general, makes a donation of N130 million to internally displaced persons in Adamawa. Because her name is Aisha Buhari, some people raise eye brows and ask, if she had N130 million to give away to the real poor people, why couldn’t she give her husband a paltry N27 million to buy his form. You said, “Oh! She is from a very wealthy family, the family of Nuhu Ribadu who also is an acclaimed “poor man” with cows to his name.” Without probing deeper, you swallowed the story of Aisha Buhari’s “wealthy family” hook, line and sinker.

Buhari said he owns nothing abroad, but yet his wife lives at Mayfair in London. Mayfair is one of the most expensive and exclusive neighbourhoods the world. So you really believed the lie that Buhari’s family, would live in a council home in UK? I repeatedly told you that Buhari owns the house in Mayfair where his Aisha Buhari stays, instead of doing research or at least some cognitive reasoning, you decided to call me names… Oh, never mind.

While Buhari was petroleum minister, N2.8 billion (valued at N645 billion in today’s money) grew wings and flew away from the NNPC account in London. Buhari claims he knows nothing about it. You decided he was innocent until proven guilty, afterall, he has sold you the dummy that he is Mr. Integrity. Yet you feel comfortable hounding Diezani Alison-Madueke for money that IS NOT MISSING of which a Senate committee investigated and cleared her of any wrongdoing from allegations fabricated by Buhari’s brother Sanusi the Emir of Kano. Buhari – innocent until proven guilty though money got missing under his watch; but Alison-Madueke – guilty even if proven innocent on money that is not missing.

Buhari said he would bring back the Chibok girls within 30 days of assuming of office, it is going to six months now instead of you demanding for the return of the girls you said you want to give him time. Okay, Buhari, please take your time.

He promised to wipe out his misguided brothers Boko Haram within 100 days in office because it would be a walk in the park for him as an ex-military ruler. You believed him and what has happened since? Over two thousand innocent Nigerians have been slaughtered by his misguided brothers under his watch. The deadliest reign of the Islamist terrorist group since they began their Jihadist campaign in 2009. Yet, instead of asking Buhari questions, you engage in an equally blood-stained conspiracy of silence.

Buhari claimed Jonathan left an empty treasury. But in six months or zero action on the economy and with foreign investors fleeing Nigeria, and with no cabinet… Nigeria is still in one piece. Please where does he get the money to preserve the economy? Instead of asking Buhari these questions and asking if he has been paid his salary and allowances in those six months you are busy passing the blame to a man who has left office.

Buhari has been jetting around the world disgracing Nigeria and Nigerians in the failed quest to be seen as a corruption fighter. He is running Nigeria down and making gaffes at every point. What do you do? Instead of holding him to account, you excuse him and point to non-existent gaffes of a Ph.D. holder president whom you love to hate. At this point, I have to say you are an idiot.

Buhari, is busy fighting the mantra “corruption” and the economy is grounding to a halt, you are losing your jobs and investments, instead of you to tell him that he can fight corruption and still keep the economy rolling you make dumb excuses for him and say he needs time to “fight corruption properly”. What does properly mean? You probably can’t say. But you give him a pass as Nigerian groan under the weight of a failed economy caused by a frozen-in-1984 president.

Instead of reminding Buhari of his lack of an educational qualification for the job and why he should swiftly put up a team that does have the requisite certification, you instead celebrate the “return of power to the North”. You forget to ask him how he is going to sustain the power he has. Instead, you remember to remind him that he is the messiah of his time.

Have you asked him what is happening to our currency depreciating by the minute? Why naira is not equivalent to a dollar as yet? Have you asked him why Nigerian school children are not fed once a day?

Have you asked him why NYSC members have not received their N50,000 monthly allowance that he promised during the campaigns? Or have you asked him why the current “paltry” sum paid to corps members are being owed under Buhari?

Have the docile “men of the fourth estate” aka Nigerian journalists reminded him of their insurance policies? That one is so sad and funny at the same time… No, they have not but rather are still carrying on with lies and propaganda for the APC and Buhari.

Have you asked him why petrol is N140 today instead of N40 has promised by his campaign surrogate? You idiot voter, you still haven’t seen a reason to converge in Freedom Park in Lagos, singing “solidarity forever” to force Buhari to keep his campaign promises.

Have you asked him why he has not paid the pensions of old retirees such as himself? Buhari promised you the best “angels and saints” of Nigeria as ministers but gave you the most rapacious criminals as noisemakers. Have you asked him why? What happened to his heavenly plans? Why did he trade angels for demons? Have you asked him why he took you on a ride for six months? No. But you have the liver to go round telling people he has a right to reward his thieving friends.

Buhari went to India an irresponsibly declared Nigeria broke. But Governor Ayo Fayose asked him to account for the monthly revenue as the previous government was doing. Instead of being transparent, Buhari thinks the best response to a call for accountability it to attack and insult Fayose. Does Fayose look like someone he can harass like that? Please, pull over, Sir. Park well.

Why does Mr. Integrity see it as an insult to be asked to be accountable to the Nigerian people who elected him into office. Isn’t that the true meaning of being “non-corrupt”? Buhari has proven himself as a fraudster, lacking all forms of decency.

If after all of these, you still think that Buhari is a man of integrity then you would believe the earth is flat.

You are fools, but Buhari is a congenital liar.

Stand up and say no to #BuhariSpoilingNigeria.

Politics / Don’t Cry For Bola Tinubu by oluvick(m): 8:25am On Oct 20, 2015
MANY monuments have been built in honour of
the man Bola Tinubu. He is acclaimed as the
political genius of our times who not only
engineered the taming of the PDP juggernaut,
he caged it and confined it to the backwaters
of Otuoke. Since the APC defeat of the PDP in
the presidential election, Tinubu the tactician
has been feted, celebrated and praised to high
heavens. But all these encomiums have proved
to be highly exaggerated.


The truth of the matter is that Tinubu, the
veritable Jagaban of Borgu, is a master of
political illusion. He is remarkable for the
distinction of characteristically pulling defeat
out of the jaws of putative victory. He mid-
wifed the birth of the APC, only to be shut out
of its vice-presidential sweepstakes. He
engineered APC”s victory at the centre, only to
see his arch-enemies take over the posts of
Speaker and Senate President in the National
Assembly. He piggy-backed Buhari to the
presidency, only to be shut out of a say in the
president’s cabinet nominees..


Tinubu is called the National Leader of the APC
when there is no such post in the party’s
Constitution. When a critical meeting of APC
bigwigs was called to address the party’s
imbroglio in the National Assembly, the “National
Leader” could not attend because, in actual
fact, he is not even a member of the National
Executive Committee (NEC) of the party.


Sowing and reaping

In 2011, Tinubu was hailed for cutting his nose
to spite his face. The PDP nominated his
kinswoman, Mulikat Akande, as Speaker of the
National Assembly. However, Tinubu conspired
with recalcitrant PDP party-members to
frustrate the plans of their party for his
South-west homestead. Instead, he engineered
the election of Sokoto’s Aminu Tambuwal, an
APC wolf in PDP sheep’s clothing, as Speaker.


In 2015, Tinubu received payback for these
shenanigans again to the detriment of his native
South-West. The same Aminu Tambuwal of
Sokoto he schemed into the position of Speaker
in 2011, repaid Tinubu by frustrating his efforts
to install his Lagos acolyte, Femi Gbajabiamila,
as Speaker in 2015. Taking a leaf straight out
of Tinubu’s 2011 playbook, Tambuwal conspired
with opposition PDP members to install another
Northern PDP turncoat, Yakubu Dogara, as
Speaker.


Tinubu’s comeuppance here is particularly
savage because it was actually Gbajabiamila who
reportedly convinced Tinubu that Tambuwal
would readily act as traitor to his PDP party
in 2011. It is therefore veritable poetic justice
that the same Tambuwal became an equally
ready tool of the PDP in the frustration of
Gbajabiamila’s ambitions and the interests of
Tinubu and the APC in 2015.


Moreover, Tinubu was repaid for his 2011
manipulations with interest. The same
treachery employed to Tinubu’s political
disadvantage in the House was also duplicated in
the Senate. Bukola Saraki, another PDP
turncoat, refused to abide by the dictates of
APC Central, firmly controlled by Tinubu’s
ACN. He snatched the position of Senate
President without official APC approval, but
with the support of the opposition PDP. So
doing, he sidelined both Tinubu’s first-choice of
George Akume, as well as his second-choice of
Ahmed Lawan.


Crumbled cookie

Just as Tinubu was licking his wounds at the
denial of his “rightful inheritance” in the
National Assembly after the APC victory at the
polls, the news came that his political cookie had
equally crumbled at Aso Rock. It had been
popularly alleged that Tinubu’s portion in
Buhari’s presidency would not be limited to the
appointment of his political godson as vice-
president, but would also include the allocation
of no less than nine choice ministerial nominees
to the discretion of the Jagaban of Borgu.


But by the time Buhari unfurled his ministerial
list two weeks ago, the alleged dedicated slots
had shrunk to zero. Many of us had warned in
the heady days of the formation of the APC
that those insistent that power must return to
the North would be determined to checkmate
Tinubu if and when the election was won. We
warned Tinubu that even as he cannot
conceivably be accepted nationally to rule
Nigeria as president, even so can he not rule
Nigeria by proxy. We warned him that the
North would never allow Buhari to be his Man
Friday in Aso Rock.


However, Tinubu was too far gone to listen. It
would now appear that he even failed to take
out insurance policies against such probable
eventualities.


But once elected, Buhari started a romance with
Babatunde Fashola and Kayode Fayemi designed
clearly to sideline the Jagaban. While these
former governors were previously members of
Tinubu’s inner-circle, they had since run out of
patience with the heavy handedness of their
boss. Therefore, during the election campaign,
both of them campaigned for Buhari above and
beyond the call of party duty.


Fashola, in particular, was clearly fed up with
being under Tinubu’s political shadow. In the
struggle for who would be the APC governorship
candidate in Lagos State, Tinubu did not allow
Fashola to choose his successor, in the ignoble
tradition of Nigerian governors. While Fashola
favoured Dapo Sasore, the former Attorney
General of Lagos State, Tinubu railroaded in
Akinwunmi Ambode as the APC candidate.


While again, in the ignoble tradition of Nigerian
politics, governors promptly transform
themselves into Senators when their term as
governor ends, this option was closed off to
Fashola because Tinubu had already installed his
wife as the Senator from Fashola’s
constitutency. The only option left for Fashola
politically was presidential ministerial
appointment and, even there, Tinubu had put up
a road block against him.


Tinubu prefers to nominate political nonentities
for higher office in the South-West, so that he
would be the only Iroko tree in the forests of
the region. Therefore his candidates for
ministerial appointment from Lagos were his
little nationally-known former commissioners,
Wale Edun and Yemi Cadosso, who could pose no
threats whatsoever to his ascribed South-West
political supremacy.


Alarm bells:But when Fashola and Fayemi
accompanied Buhari to the G7 meeting in
Germany in June 2015, alarm bells started
ringing in Tinubu’s Bourdillon Road mansion in
Lagos. This was clearly a signial that these
former governors were intent on by-passing the
official godfather of the South-West by
applying to be members of Buhari’s kitchen
cabinet on their own recognisance.


The Tinubu brigade would have none of this.
Therefore, a campaign of calumny was launched
to cut Fashola in particular to dimunitive size.
Suddenly, the “memo” was sent out implying the
former governor had developed political
leprosy. When two books were launched
simultaneously celebrating his achievements as
governor, none of his APC colleagues from
Lagos dared to attend for fear of entering the
bad books of the dreaded Jagaban.


In order to nail the coffin on Fashola’s
ministerial aspirations, it was leaked to the
press that a whopping 78 million naira of public
money was spent on the construction of his
personal website. 139 million naira was also
alleged to have been spent on two boreholes
constructed in Government House, Lagos during
his tenure. The intention here was to ensure
that Fashola becomes ineligible for ministerial
consideration on grounds that he would not
pass Buhari’s anti-corruption integrity test.


However, Buhari was apparently unimpressed by
these political shenanigans. When his list of
ministerial nominees were unfurled, Fashola and
Fayemi featured prominently among Buhari’s
“first eleven.” None of Tinubu’s nominees made
the list. Other nominees from the South-West
were precisely the kind of people Tinubu did not
want in Buhari’s team; people who would not be
indebted to Tinubu but to Buhari.


While Buhari completely ignored Tinubu’s
candidates, he included that of another South-
West bigwig. Obasanjo’s favourite-son, Prince
Olagusoye Oyinlola, former governor of Osun
State, was included in Buhari’s list. Thereby,
the president asserted the saliency of
Obasanjo’s South-West influence in Aso Rock
over that of the Jagaban. He even pointedly
appointed Obasanjo as his special envoy to
Guinea-Bissau.


This is certainly not what Tinubu bargained for
when he decided to pitch his tent with Buhari
and the APC. If he were to be furthermore
overlooked in the appointment of BOT chairman
of the APC, the marginalisation of the Jagaban
in the post-election APC would be complete.
Comeuppance: Some of us saw this coming. In
the heady early days of the APC coalition, we
warned that Tinubu would be used and dumped.
But we were labelled as PDP lapdogs and
charlatans. That is why I say today: let no one
cry for Bola Tinubu.


Anyone who hears Tinubu’s recent vicious
attack on Saraki would realise these are the
tokens of a frustrated man. Tinubu could not
attack the President, therefore he poured all
his venom on the Senate President. He accused
him of indiscipline and disloyalty; the very
things he celebrated in the PDP rebels who
joined forces with him against their party in
2011.


Face saving device

The recent declaration that Buhari appointed
Babachir Lawal as Secretary to the Government
of the Federation at the instance of Tinubu is a
face-saving device. The Tinubu camp forgot to
tell us this until now. At the time of new SGF’s
appointment, all the uproar was about the
Northern lopsidedness in Buhari’s choices.


Observing the sidelining of Tinubu by Buhari,
Senator Femi Okunroumu said: “I am having a
good laugh. This is what I expected. In any
case, Tinubu is stretching his luck too far as he
wants to dictate who will rule Nigeria. Tinubu’s
wings need to be clipped. With the ministerial
list, Tinubu has been dumped. He should not just
be dumped, he should be disgraced.”


On his part, Afenifere chieftain, Chief Ayo
Adebanjo, said: “APC is not a party; it is a
gang of people whose sole aim was to remove
Dr. Goodluck Jonathan as president. In a real
party, you share the spoils of office before
elections not after elections. This is what is
happening in APC. We warned our people, but
they failed to listen.”


In the new politics of today’s APC, it is better
to be the enemy of Bola Tinubu than to be his
friend. The enemies of Tinubu become Senate
presidents; they become Speakers of the House
of Representatives; they become ministers of
the Federal government. But the friends of
Tinubu are sent to Siberia.


The Jagaban of Borgu himself has been slain
politically upon his high places. How are the
mighty fallen!

Romance / Women More Attracted To Men With Large Genitals (joysticks) – Study by oluvick(m): 7:57am On Oct 14, 2015
Previous studies on women’s preferences for male
genital size have been mixed, and even though it is
the men who typically worry about the size of
their own genitals, it is not unusual for women to
prefer large-size male Instruments, even if it is up to
a point.

But scientists have always argued that the old
studies relied on questionnaires, which they say
may not always provide honest answers.
However, it is now scientifically proven that size
does, indeed, matter significantly because women
tend to be more attracted to men with large
genitals.

A new study by Australian researchers found
that while the average woman rates the average
man with large genitals more attractive, large
genitals also give tall men a bigger attractiveness
boost than shorter men.

A publication of the study result in the journal of
the Proceedings of the National Academy of
Sciences, however, notes that the returns on
bigger genitals start to decrease at a flaccid
penile length of 2.99 inches (7.6 centimeters).
The study suggests that women’s preferences for
bigger male genitals could explain why human
males have relatively big genitals for their body
size.

In previous related studies, scientists only asked
women to judge the attractiveness of male
figures in photos with only penile size varied,
when in fact no trait is ever evaluated in a
vacuum.

But in the Australian study, researchers at the
Australian National University, showed 105 young
Australian women life-size computer-generated
figures of nude men, varying the figures’ flaccid
penile size, height and shoulder-to-hip ratio.

Height and shoulder-to-hip ratio have previously
been shown as factors used by women to judge
attractiveness. The computer simulations varied
penile width in sync with length, so that all
joysticks were proportional.

The results revealed that women preferred taller
men as well as high shoulder-to-hip ratios
(meaning that the wider the shoulders were than
the hip, the more attractive the man).

Shoulder-to-hip ratio was a major determiner of
attractiveness, accounting for 79.6 percent of
the variation in hot-or-not ratings.

Though the effect was less extreme, women also
preferred larger male organs, at least up to 5.1
inches (13 cm) flaccid, which was the largest
computer-generated penile size in the study.
Beyond 2.99 inches, however, the additional
attractiveness per extra length started to
decline.

When the researchers controlled for shoulder-to-
hip ratio, they found that a larger penis had a
greater effect on attractiveness for taller men,
hinting that a larger penis just looked more
proportional on a taller man’s body, the
researchers wrote, or it could be that women
were biased against shorter men to the extent
that even large genitals didn’t help. Interestingly,
women’s own features mattered as well.

Researchers found that taller women were more
likely to find taller men attractive. Women with
greater body mass per height were slightly more
likely than thinner women to weigh penile size
more heavily in their judgments of attractiveness,
though the difference was small.

Researchers say the findings might help explain
why humans have remarkably large Instruments given
their average body size.

It is a fact that male humans have the largest
joysticks that any other primate species: For
example, male gorillas can weigh as much as 180
kilograms, but their erect penis length is only
about 1.5 inches (4 cm).

Human males weigh about half of what gorillas do,
but studies peg average erect or flaccid-but-
stretched penis length from 4.7 inches (12 cm) to
6.5 inches (16.7 cm).

Evolutionary biologists theorize that large human
joysticks might help remove sperm from
competing males during sex, but in an era before
clothing, women may have been drawn to mating
with men whose Instruments caught their eye.
Men with larger joysticks, then, may have passed
on their genes more readily, resulting in the
large-genitals trait being handed down the
generations.

In other words, males may have females to thank
for their greater-than-gorilla-sized genitals.
