President Muhammadu Buhari has attributed the
triumph of the All Progressives Congress in the 2015
general election to the vision of a National Leader of
the party, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu. Buhari said this in a
recorded tribute which was presented at the 8th
Bola Tinubu Colloquium in Abuja on Tuesday. At the event, which was held to commemorate the 64th
birthday of Tinubu, the President said the former
governor of Lagos State was the brains behind the
merger of Nigeria’s main opposition parties in
2013. He said without Tinubu’s vision and
intelligence, the party would not have been formed and the APC would not be in power today. Buhari
stated, “If Bola Ahmed Tinubu did not participate,
there wouldn’t have been a merger and there
wouldn’t have been an APC government at the
centre. That is absolutely clear. “He should thank
God that he has gone through so much and has remained relevant, that he is healthy and young.”
Earlier in his address, the President had contended
that Tinubu remained one of the most important
figures in Nigeria at the moment. Buhari added,
“There are very few patriots, alive or departed,
who can match the commitment, resilience and creativity that Asiwaju Bola Tinubu has, over the
past few decades, demonstrated in organising
Nigeria’s public life for good. “As he adds
another year today, my best wishes and prayers go
out to a man who deserves a lot of commendation
for what he continues to stand for.” The President’s address, which centred on the theme:
‘Agriculture: Action, Work, Revolution’,
highlighted the several opportunities which abound
in the agricultural sector. According to him, it is
unfortunate that Nigeria is importing food when it
should be exporting. Buhari said, “Nearly all our crop-based farming activities are dependent on rain-
fed agriculture, and this makes our agricultural
productivity entirely vulnerable to the effects of
climate change.CONTINUE READING

The Nigerian Army said on Tuesday that it had
captured Alagarno, the `spiritual power base’ of
the
Boko Haram terrorists in the North-East. Maj.-Gen.
Lucky Irabor, the Theatre Commander of
Operation Lafiya Dole, stated this while briefing newsmen in Maiduguri.
``On March 18, at about 0900 hrs, troops of 3 and 7
Divisions commenced advance to capture Alagarno,
with a preparatory air bombardment by Nigeria Air
Force (NAF), advance was halted severally due to
planted Improvised Explosive Devises (IED) along the routes leading to Alagarno. ``During the operations,
troops cleared Yajiwa, Joba,
Mosa and other villages. Our gallant troops finally
entered Alagarno on March 28, during which several
Boko Haram terrorists were killed along the route.
``This operation demystified the Boko Haram terrorist
spiritual power base in Alagarno. ``Throughout the
operation, the NAF monitored the
operation, consistently resupplied the advancing
troops as well as assisted in evacuating soldiers that
were wounded in action.'' Irabor recalled that in February the Nigerian Army
troops captured Kumshe. ``On Feb. 23, at about
0740 hrs, own troops in
conjunction with Cameroonian forces commenced
advance to clear and capture Kumshe.Continue Reading

Shoppers were shocked by a
coffin at their bus and taxi rank on Saturday.
Potter’s House Christian Church members
put it there to spread the gospel to residents
of George in the Western Cape and to urge
them to embrace God! Church member Aphiwe Nqevu (28) said:
“We brought the coffin to illustrate to people
who fail to embrace Jesus as the son of God
that they will go to hell and face eternal death.
“Those who believe in Him will live a
glorious life of eternity in heaven when they die. “We use the coffin to urge people to
embrace God. Once death occurs, it is too late
to decide. Everybody is going to die, so let’s
find Jesus.” Aphiwe is a former drug dealer and
convict
who became a Christian in 2009. Pastor Randall van Staden said church
members use theatre, music and the coffin to
spread the gospel in towns like Mossel Bay,
Knysna and Oudts-hoorn. But not everybody thought
the coffin was a
good idea. Some women ran away in fear. Thembalethu taxi owner Zilindile Mthana (74)
said it was disrespectful. “Coffins are linked
to funerals – a sacred thing in our African
culture,” he said. Maria Jack (42) said her daughter
(9) was
amazed. Aphiwe added: “People should understand
that whether they are rich or poor or black or
white – the same fate awaits them and that is
death.”

A piglet born with the face of a
monkey has baffled locals and prompted both
experts and social media users to speculate
on what could have caused the defect. The facial
deformity resulted in the mutant pig
having a simian jaw, a considerably shorter snout and a protruding forehead so that it
resembled a monkey. Its peculiar appearance led it
to being branded
‘monkey pig’ after images of it surfaced
on social media websites and quickly went
viral.

That is white man mentality for you

A car ran over him but he did not die or even hurts himself

The bermuda triangle is for real

These images show a father granting the final
wish of his dying daughter – to marry her. Andy
Barnard, 31, had always vowed that one day his
only daughter would have the wedding of her
dreams. Tragically that day will never come for 16-
month-old Poppy-Mai after she was diagnosed with a rare and fatal brain tumour and given just TWO days to live. So Andy’s RAF colleagues hastily arranged a wedding day for Poppy-Mai and the beautiful little
bride ‘married’ her father. Poppy-Mai was escorted to the aisle by her mum Sammi Barnard, 29 and brothers Rylee, six and
Jenson–Jay, four. Andy who serves with the RAF 27 squadron regiment said: ‘From the moment we found out Poppy-Mae was a girl I’ve said she’d have the wedding of her dreams one day. I never ever thought it would be
like this.’
On February 14th mum Sammi took Poppy-Mai to the doctors. The usually playful toddler had gone off her food and drink and was constipated with a
distended tummy. Sammi had also noticed she seemed off
balance. Their GP put the little girl’s symptoms
down to teething and prescribed a laxative. She grew worse and Sammi noticed a lump appear under her rib cage.
Poppy-Mai later refused all food and drink and
couldn’t walk, Sammi took her back to the GP ten days later. A different doctor prescribed a stronger laxative. But the following afternoon on February 25th Sammi was so concerned she drove her daughter to A&E. The toddler, who had now started vomiting, was
immediately admitted as doctors battled to stabilise her.

The disappearances in the infamous region has
repeatedly been blamed on the paranormal - with
suggestions it could be a vortex to another
dimension
which has transported the poor souls on board
away from our universe. But now scientists believe there
could be a much
more Earthly, and provable explanation, for the
legend also known as the Devil's Triangle.
Researchers have found huge undersea craters
which could be tell-tale signs on why vessels went missing
and were possible blown to smithereens, to end up
at
the bottom of the sea. The up to half-mile-wide and
150ft deep craters in the
Barents Sea are thought to have been caused by a build-up of methane.
They are just off the Norweaigan coast - a country
rich
in natural gas reserves. Methane is likely to have
leaked from deposits of
natural gas deeper below the sea bed, then created cavities which eventually burst, once the pressure
gets too high, the scientists said. This would lead to a
massive blow up of gas, which
could cause a boat or ship to fail if it was passing at
the height of the explosion. Russian scientist Igor
Yeltsov, deputy head of the Trofimuk Institute, said: "There is a version that the
Bermuda Triangle is a consequence of gas hydrates
reactions.
"They start to actively decompose with methane ice
turning into gas. "It happens in an avalanche-like
way, like a nuclear reaction, producing huge amounts of gas. "That
makes the ocean heat up and ships sink in its
waters mixed with a huge proportion of gas. "The
crater area is likely to represent one of the
largest hotspots for shallow marine methane
release in the Arctic." Hundreds of boats and planes have
been lost within
and just outside the triangle since Christopher
Columbus was the first to record its existence,
noting
his ship's compass stopped working and he saw a fireball in the sky.
