Foreign AffairsBREAKING] Gambian President Makes U-turn, Rejects Election Results by redfly(op): 7:33am On Dec 10, 2016
[
December 10, 2016

Gambian leader Yahya Jammeh has rejected the result of the presidential election held earlier this month, a week after admitting defeat.

He said he now recommends fresh and transparent elections which will be officiated by a God-fearing and independent electoral commission

Speaking on state TV, Mr Jammeh cited “abnormalities” in the vote and called for fresh elections.
Mr Jammeh, who came to power in a coup in 1994, suffered a shock defeat to Adama Barrow, who won more than 45% of the vote.

The US “strongly condemned” Mr Jammeh’s statement.

“This action is a reprehensible and unacceptable breach of faith with the people of The Gambia and an egregious attempt to undermine a credible election process and remain in power illegitimately,” said state department spokesman Mark Toner.

Mr Barrow, a property developer, is due to take office in late January. Mai Ahmad Fatty, the head of his transition team, told Reuters they were “consulting on what to do”, adding: “As far as we are concerned, the people have voted. We will maintain peace and stability and not let anyone provoke us into violence.”

The Gambia is the smallest country on mainland Africa, with a population of fewer than two million.

Mr Jammeh said that he now rejected the results of the election “in totality”.
“After a thorough investigation, I have decided to reject the outcome of the recent election,” Mr Jammeh said.

“I lament serious and unacceptable abnormalities which have reportedly transpired during the electoral process.

“I recommend fresh and transparent elections which will be officiated by a God-fearing and independent electoral commission.”

SportsHiddink Names Mikel Chelsea's 'ideal Player by redfly(op):
The Dutchman claims one player can be a "key figure" for the reigning Premier League champions after Sunday's 3-0 win over Crystal Palace
Guus Hiddink believes John Obi Mikel is the “ideal player” to bring balance to Chelsea’s midfield.
The Nigerian has featured in all three games for Chelsea since Guus Hiddink took charge, while under Jose Mourinho, he had started only five games in all competitions this season.
And the Dutchman insists the 28-year-old can be one of the “key figures” to aid Chelsea’s revival following the abysmal start to their title defence.
"He played very well but also in the previous game," said the Chelsea manager after Sunday's 3-0 win over Crystal Palace.
"He's the ideal player in my option to bring balance to the team. If the team is not willing to defend well, or hasn't got the right balance, then you'll concede a lot of goals.
"I think John Obi can be one of the key figures in bringing back that balance.
"On this podium very talented players can explore their qualities.
"He can recover his radar, he reads the game very well, he knows where the strength of the opponent is and knows how to combat that. He has very good sense, he doesn't do it in a brutal way, he's very elegant.
"Someone who can defend so smoothly is very beautiful. I don't expect the decisive final pass from him - he can (do that), but he can also let the other players [play].”

CrimeIrish Teen Blackmailed By Nigerian Gang Commits Suicide by redfly(op): 6:06pm On Jun 16, 2015
16 June 2015 11:05

Ronan Hughes died less than two weeks ago
The parents of a County Tyrone teenager who took his own life have said a Nigerian gang was blackmailing him over intimate photographs.

Gerard and Teresa Hughes said the gang demanded more than £3,000 from their son, Ronan, and then sent images of him to his friends on social media.

Speaking to the Irish News, they criticised police "inaction" after the 17-year-old revealed what was going on.

Police said they hoped to meet the family to discuss their concerns.

Det Ch Supt Brian Hanna said: "Our enquiries are continuing into what will be a complex and protracted investigation, and we will keep the family informed of any progress as appropriate.

"The office of the Police Ombudsman for Northern Ireland is also best placed to deal with any complaints in relation to police actions."

'Relentless'

Ronan's parents told the newspaper that his death, less than two weeks ago, could have been prevented.

At the time, it was believed the Coalisland teenager was tricked into posting pictures online, and police said they are investigating whether he was being blackmailed.

Speaking for the first time since their son's death on 5 June, the couple described their son's online blackmailers as "relentless".

They said he was being blackmailed over images he posted online after receiving photographs from a girl.

His mother said: "We want there to be changes so if a child out there is being bullied online they can go to the police or other authorities with their concerns.

"We don't want another family to go through what we've gone through."

Ronan's parents told the Irish News that their son, a pupil at St Joseph's Grammar in Donaghmore, had confided in them three days before his death about a fake Facebook account.

He said the blackmailers said they would send the images to his online friends unless he paid £3,300 within 48 hours.

Ronan died just hours after learning that his blackmailers had carried out their threat.

'Worried'

His parents believe he would still be alive if his case had been treated more urgently by the Police Service of Northern Ireland.

"His biggest worry was that his friends would see these images, " Mr Hughes said.

But when he took his son to Dungannon police station, they were told there was only one officer on duty.

"A policeman said to us there was very little they could do as he was there on his own that night.

"He scribbled down a few notes and told us to ignore the blackmail. He told us to come back the next morning.

"I knew Ronan was looking for help and I told him that all my son wanted is for these images not to be posted. He told us that he couldn't guarantee that. For Ronan, it was totally dismissive."

He said if the police had given Ronan an assurance that they would close the site down, he "would still be here today".

They returned to the police station the next day where they spent several hours and Ronan's phone was taken.

However, they heard nothing more from the police.

The Nigerian site was closed within two days of the tragedy.

PoliticsThe Battle Of The Five Armies: Boko Haram Prepares For Battle In Gwoza by redfly(op): 7:13am On Mar 07, 2015
Boko Haram fighters are preparing in mass at
their headquarters in the northeastern Nigerian
town of Gwoza, Maiduguri, Borno State for a
showdown with Multinational Joint Task Force,
residents and an intelligence officer told The
Associated Press.
A woman, who was trapped in the town since it
was seized in July, 2014 told her daughter that
the insurgents were urging civilians to leave town
to avoid being killed in crossfire in an anticipated
major battle.
Hajiya Adama said her mother told her that the
insurgents had also released some young women
being held against their will, including some made
pregnant during their captivity.
She said her mother left last week and escaped to
the town of Yola, in neighbouring Adamawa state
capital.
Adama said, “She told me that Boko Haram
terrorists asked them to leave suddenly, that they
were preparing grounds for a major battle.
“She said while being helped by other women to
leave through Madagali, they saw many Boko
Haram terrorists in trucks and some on bikes
moving toward Gwoza.”
An intelligence officer said security forces have
been moving slowly for fear of harming civilians,
and especially since the insurgent group is
surrounding Gwoza with land mines.

Hello guys, grab a seat and let’s hope no lady is
reading this because this information is strictly
for guys. I repeat this information is strictly for
guys. Ladies kindly walk through the exit door
by your left, thank you.
*looks left and right, up and down, shuts door*.
So she has accepted to go out with you at last.
You have fixed the day and time for your first
date. You are anxious because you want to
impress her. You want to leave a good
impression because you know that first
impression matters. You want to make her your
bae, don’t you?
My brothers bring out your calculators, biros
and sheets of paper, let’s do some calculations.
How much are you prepared to spend on the
first date? What are the things that you would
buy? Write them down…….
You will probably end up with a list like this…..
Two plates of fried rice salad with chicken –
N1400
Drinks of her favourite brand – N1500
Barbecued fish – N1000
Meatpie, fish pie, burger, Shawarma etc –
N2000
Ice cream – N800
Take away food pack for her friends– N1200
Movie cinema ticket/popcorn – N3000
Expenses on a short visit to the shopping mall –
N5000
Add up the figures and let’s see the total
amount you have arrived at. Is that amount
moderate or too high? Well…..Let me ask you a
question…….
Bro are you inviting her to come and gorge
herself to death with food or do you want to get
to know her better?
Now take up that sheet of paper and squeeze it.
Tear it into tiny bits and throw them into the
waste basket.
Sit down and let’s reason together.
What is your definition of a date?
The conventional meaning of a date
appointment is a period of time when the man
takes the woman out to a fancy restaurant, buys
her food and watches her gobble it up. The man
says nice things to her in a bid to impress her.
At the end of the date he pays the bills hoping
to get a peck from her as compensation for his
trouble. They leave the restaurant together and
part ways, promising to meet some other time at
some other venue.
*Yawns*
Aren’t restaurant dates too cliché and boring?
If you ask Dr Leroi he would tell you that a date
should be a period of time where the two
parties share fun activities. Yes it should only be
two parties!
Guys what should you do to a girl who turns up
to a dinner date with all of her 12 girlfriends in
tow? I think the best option is to run! Who
wants to wash plates in a fast-food’s kitchen?
*shrugs shoulders*
Drop your ego. Drop the “I need to impress her”
attitude. It does not matter whether you are a
millionaire, thousandaire or hundrednaire, you
can have a nice date experience spending only
200 naira. Most guys don’t know that a lady will
prefer doing fun stuffs when hanging out with
you rather than sitting down to lick an ice
cream cone at an upscale fast food joint.
The D-day is here. You have to make adequate
preparation.
Buy two bottles of chilled Zobo drink and a
medium sized packet of cream crackers biscuit.
That should cost you roughly N200 or N300.
Toss them inside a backpack and hang it on
your back. This will serve as your date food.
The cool zobo drink helps to relieve high blood
pressure and has low sugar content. The cream
crackers biscuit is low in calories and is also a
rich source of B complex vitamins. I am telling
you bro, you will score major points on her
score sheet when you turn with these snacks. It
will send a strong signal that you are a caring
guy who is concerned about her healthy
dieting. However if she slaps you when you
present these snacks to her, please don’t take it
personal. Just know that she is feigning anger to
cover up her over excitement. Okay?
Arrange for a takeoff point for the date. It could
be her place or a public place in the city.
Go and look for a bicycle. You can hire one for
the occasion then show up at the takeoff point
with the bicycle. Hey don’t give me that weird
look, yes I meant a bicycle, the one with a
passenger seat. Don’t go with your car! The
bicycle must be in good condition oh. It should
not be the creaky ones with long disjointed
spokes that can pierce her soft skin.
She will be definitely surprised to see you with
a bicycle. Tell her that you are trying something
new for a change. Ask her to hop onto the bike
for a ride with you.
The lady will find the offer ridiculous but at the
same time she will be curious and excited
because you are leading her to an adventure.
She will sit on the bicycle’s seat after a while.
Err…my brother before she hops in, make sure
that she is not the overweight type that will
deflate the bicycle’s tires. If someone’s
daughter falls down and dislocates her waist,
you are on your own! Your date will be turned
to hate. So use the bicycle procedure only for a
slim babe.
If you don’t have access to a bicycle, use a
motor bike or if the girl is too fat don’t worry,
your feet will do just fine. Convince her to take
a stroll with you to your chosen destination.
Take a really long walk in one direction, passing
through streets, neighbourhoods, checking out
things along the way.
As you both stroll or ride on, you have to be
funny to get her attention. Crack a couple of
jokes that will keep her laughing or else she
would suddenly ask herself “what the heck am I
doing on this bicycle?” If you allow such
thoughts to gain entry into her head, that will
be the beginning of the end of your “date”.
Please remember to keep your jokes nice and
civil. Let your jokes not be the dry as harmattan
Akpos jokes. Okay?
While she is still laughing her heart out to your
wisecracks, quietly ask her to help you choose a
good shirt in a nearby boutique. She will jump
at the offer.
This is because you are putting yourself up as
the little boy who wants mama to help him
choose a good shirt since he can’t decide for
himself. Women love this power. She wouldn’t
know that you are using reverse psychology on
her.
When you both enter the shop, you should do a
bit of window shopping. Move from one
clothing rack to the other gazing at the clothes
on display. Please bro don’t allow her to wander
into the female clothes and accessories section.
When you notice her eyes straying towards that
section, put your arms round her shoulders and
gently lead her away because if she gets in there
and stays there for five minutes, your N200
naira budget will be grossly inadequate and you
will have explain to her why you can’t buy her
that silver necklace!
She will help you choose a nice shirt. Don’t pay
for that shirt right there and then. Walking into
the boutique was part of your strategy to have a
fun time with her. You must follow your
strategy to the end. You can always go back
later to the shop to buy and pick up the shirt!
Are we still on the same page?
Ride away with her this time to a public park.
Choose a section of the park that has some
privacy and open your backpack bringing out
your “picnic box”.
You both will discover that the Zobo drink and
cream crackers biscuit will taste extra great
because you two are having a simple fun-time.
Life is simple but we insist on making it
complicated….isn’t that a quote from the great
philosopher Confucius?
Use that opportunity to take as many selfies as
possible with each other. If she is really having
a good time, she would make the following
faces for the pictures: duck face, tongue hanging
from mouth face, pouting face, frog face, doll
face and a variety of facial expressions known
only to the female species as you snap away.
You will realize that you would not have been
that happy and free spirited if you were to be in
a cinema watching an over-hyped movie that
you both don’t really care about.
In the course of your chit chat let her know that
you are a novice at cooking and that you can
only boil water for eba. Ask her to help you out
with some cooking recipes and tips. My brother i
am telling you she will take it upon herself to
educate you. She will see you as the poor boy
who can’t cook to save his life and needs urgent
help from mama. She will even want to cook a
sample dish for you. This may end up with her
visiting your place to show you how to slice the
vegetable leaves and when to pour in the pepper
and crayfish in the soup pot.
But if she declines to visit you, don’t stress it.
Overtime she will naturally fix a convenient
date on her own accord.
Guys there you have it. Both of you are enjoying
the date. You have been able to pull it off
without breaking into a bank. You have broken
the dating stereotype.
If you pull this off successfully, she would be
the one to call you up for a second date. This
time around it would be an “indoor” date.

FamilyRe: How To Find Out If She Is A Wife Material Using The Udara Cherry Test by redfly(m): 6:00pm On Nov 16, 2014
The Udara fruit is a popular fruit that blooms
during the dry season in Nigeria. When the
fruit is at its peak season between December –
April, you can see it everywhere you go; At
street corners, in the market stalls, in traffic
holdups hawked by street hawkers etc. To
avoid confusion I am talking about the small
roundish shaped fruit with yellowish to
reddish-brown colouration botanically referred
to as Chrysophyllum albidum.
Udara is cherished by the ladies, they are the
major consumers of this fruit.
Generally there are two major types of Udara.
The sweet and the sour variety.
You can conduct this test by buying the Udara
fruit for her & sitting back to watch how she
consumes it or by just random observation
whenever you see her eating the fruit. It is
preferable that you give her the fruit yourself
so as to have control over the test process.
Sit back open your eyes and observe carefully.
You can always tell the character traits of an
individual by his/her eating mannerism.
Give her the sweet udara variety.
Her first action will be to remove the tiny
stalk that serves as the fruit cap/seal. She will
then squeeze the body of the fruit releasing
the juice and fleshy fruit pulp into her mouth.
If she licks her lips & remarks on how sweet
the fruit tastes, it shows that she is a good-
natured lady who will pay you compliments as
at and when due. This means she will live
peaceably with you, your friends and relations.
How does she utilize the seed of the fruit?
You know Udara seeds are enveloped in a thin
mucous membrane that is meant to be
removed by the combined action of the teeth
& the tongue. If she swallows all the seeds
alongside with the membrane, bro you need to
watch it! This means she will swallow all your
money if you marry her!
This is the type of woman who does not know
when to stop. If you take her out for a little
shopping she will buy up everything in the
mall burning big holes in your pocket leaving
you stranded in the shopping mall.
The edible fruit pulp of the Udara sweet
variety is delicious and can be chewed and
swallowed with ease. Watch her hands, if she
turns the fruit inside out and uses her teeth to
scrape off all the pulp sticking to the peel, bro
run away from her! She will be a compulsive
consumer in your marriage!
If she passes the sweet variety test my
brother you can heave a sigh of relief but
before you bring out the ring to pop the
question, just chill a bit and conduct the sour
variety test because it is not yet Uhuru.
This should be done few hours after the first
test or on a different day.
Give her the sour tasting variety . The type
that makes you feel like you’ve received a slap
on your cheeks immediately the juice touches
your tongue. Watch her as she eats it.
If she gives the typical knee jerk reaction by
squeezing her face, exclaiming and throwing
away the fruit the moment the juice touches
her tongue it means either of two things:
– She is a frank & outspoken woman. This
could be a cause for concern for you later if
you go ahead to marry her. Never let her catch
you with any woman in a compromising
situation because if she does so, you will
experience the truth in the saying “hell hath
no fury than a woman scorned”.
– It could also mean that she does not have
the spirit of perseverance. She will lose hope
in the marriage at the first sign of hardship.
She won’t be a loyal wife, the kind of woman
that will run away from the home when you
are broke.
However if she does not throw away the fruit
but keeps on munching on it slowly in spite of
the sour taste, clap for yourself because you
have found yourself a keeper! A woman who
will not flinch when you experience hard times.
She will endure the difficult times with you.
As she keeps on eating watch her facial
features. If she chews the fleshy pulp to the
point where it undergoes transformation and
becomes a chewing gum, Bro please put the
ring on her finger!! This shows that she will be
a creative wife, she will stick with you and
work things out together with you
transforming the sour times into pleasant
outcomes.
That will be all for. I know you will now be
looking at the “ordinary” udara fruit in a
different light.

Disclaimer: This piece has not been
scientifically, spiritually, biologically or socially
proven to be 100% right. It was written under
the influence of a sweet udara fruit plucked
from Eka udo’s backyard. Put it to use at your
own risk

continue here:

We were forced to follow him
out of fear, we trekked with him to a point
where we saw another two of his
colleagues. That was where they all asked
us to lie down. But we were scared.
“They eventually forced my two sisters
down and two of the men raped them, but
they did not rape me. After raping them,
they started cutting them with their knives
until they killed them. At that point, I
started running and shouting for help, but
one of them came after me and cut me with
a knife and I fell down.
“I passed out for sometime and in my pool
of blood, they thought I was dead, but
luckily, when they left, I gathered myself
and managed to escape back to the
village. That was how I found myself at the
hospital.”
SUSPECT SPEAKS
Narrating his own side of the story, the
prime suspect, 20-year-old Adamu Ibrahim,
who confessed that he was under the
influence of a drug, Tramol 200, when he
committed the heinous crime said he killed
the girls out of provocation.
Hear him, “I was in the bush grazing my
cow when a Tiv man approached me
claiming that I damaged his farm. I told
him I was not the one and he insisted I
was the one. In the midst of the argument
and confusion, my herds scattered in the
bush. I started chasing after them in order
to gather them. On my way, I met three
girls whom I asked if they knew the man
that was accusing me of destroying his
farm and they said yes.
“They, however, refused to disclose the
man’s residence, claiming that they did not
know his house. The eldest amongst the
girls started insulting me and she came
and held my cutlass. I told her to get off
my cutlass. She continued pulling the
cutlass. The second one came and started
taunting me and pulling my dagger and in
the process, the knife cut her hand.
“I withdrew from them and asked if they
can face me and they said yes. That was
why I pulled out my knife and cut the
eldest. The other one that had a cut on her
hand ran and moved away and was
watching from a distance, but I also
caught up with her and cut her down. I
also did the same thing to the third.”
DENIES RAPING VICTIMS
Adamu who was arrested while he was
about to flee the community on a
motorbike to Rukubi in Nasarawa State,
swore that he did not rape the girls
explaining further that he was the only
herdsman in the bush at the time of the
incident.
“No other Fulani herdsman was there, I did
it alone. I swear that I did not rape them.
They pushed me into what I did because I
was pleading and asking that they left me
alone. I feel very sorry for what I did,
because it is a crime. I was actually under
the influence of Tramol 200. I normally buy
the tablet from one Tiv man in the village. I
take it to feel high and for energy because
whenever I take it, I hardly get tired of
moving about with my cow.”
When asked of his parents, Adamu said he
was told that shortly after his birth, his
father died and his mother whom he hardly
knew gave him out to one Alhaji Kawo
Ibrahim who brought him up as a
herdsman.
“We reside here in Benue near Agatu, that
is where some of us move our cow for
grazing,” he said.
LAWMAKER REACTS
Reacting to the unfortunate incident, a
member of the Benue State House of
Assembly, representing Makurdi North in
whose constituency the killing happened,
Mr. Avine Gbom, lamented that Mballagh
Council ward had remained a conquered
territory since 2011 when Fulani herdsmen
first invaded the community, killing and
maiming the inhabitants.
“The farmers and owners of the community
are now at the mercy of the Fulanis. The
Police are presently not there even though
there was an instruction to that effect by
the state government While the Fulanis
have also refused to vacate the village for
over three years now. At a point, the locals
had to leave the area for them. In fact, they
all fled to Makurdi town until the peace
and re-conciliatory committee was set up
and some went back; but till date, the
Fulanis are completely in charge of the
place.”
The lawmaker appealed to the federal and
state governments to intervene by
providing a police post for the community.
“The military can be deployed to the area
to stem further crisis so that the people
can go back and reclaim their land. As far
as I am concerned, the peace arrangement
by the state government and the Fulanis in
that community is certainly not working.
The people are living like slaves in their
own father land at the moment.
“The most unfortunate thing in this matter
is the fact that the people who were
displaced by the Tiv/Fulani crisis have as
at today, not received any relief materials
from the state or Federal Government. One
then begins to wonder why after much
materials came to the state, nothing has
been given to the people who were directly
affected by the crisis. My appeal is to the
state government. They should give the
people relief materials to alleviate their
sufferings and start their lives again,”
Gbom emphasized.
POLICE REACT
Speaking on the matter, newly posted
Benue State Commissioner of Police, Mr.
Hyacinth Dagala, expressed deep shock
over the killing adding, “I feel bad about
this because it is absurd and unfounded
for women who are ordinarily non-violent
to be killed in such violent manner. I was
personally shocked when I heard about the
incident and got particularly worried when
I discovered the manner these young girls
were killed.
“I must point out that though the problem
of natives and Fulanis have been with us
in the country for several years,
government would not be able to address
it overnight, but it would certainly be
addressed. Some persons are currently
agitating that the Fulanis should move to
other states, others feel that since they are
Nigerians, they should not be restricted.
We all hope that this problem will soon be
resolved especially, if all the stakeholders
are able to harmonise their thoughts and
views.”
As a prelude to peace, Dagala urged
leaders of the Herdsmen and the host
communities to make it a priority to
educate their people on the need to live in
peace with one another in the collective
interest of all. The Police boss who
promised that the police would thoroughly
investigate the killing in order to stem any
spill over assured that the law will take its
course in the matter.
“I also want to urge members of the public
to help the Police by availing us with
information that would help in our
responsibilities to the society. The truth is
that the job of policing should not be left
in the hands of police alone. The public
should be part of the police project.
“I would also advise that we should all be
conscious of strangers around us and
report to law enforcement agencies when
necessary. This is part of the ways we can
effectively police the society and check
crimes and criminality in our country,”
Dagala stated.

PoliticsRe: SHOCKER! Tiwa Savage’s N30 M Dubai Celebrated, 5 Months Old Marriage Crashing by redfly(m): 5:22pm On Sep 26, 2014
is unfortunate that we are reporting
this. Tiwa made the world believe that
her hubby was the best choice for her
but the latest report emanating from
their home says otherwise. It looks
like the marriage that Tiwa spent N30
million celebrating in Dubai is heading for
Olumo Rocks.
Kemi Filani reports:
Heard this last night but didn’t put it up
till i was able to do some little
confirmations here and there…
Tiwa Savage and Tunji Balogun’s
marriage is heading for the rocks, she
might change her mind later but right now
they are undergoing some serious marital
crisis.
Their marriage is barely five months old
(they got married in Dubai in May) but
Tiwa can’t hold it in anymore…she’s tired
of putting up with Tunji…..he beats her,
cheats on her etc…so many incredible
stories i can’t even put here…but she’s
finally ready to call it quit and it all
revolves around her money.
Three different sources in their inner circle
confirmed this.
“Kemi, it’s nothing new abeg. We were
shocked when she accepted to marry him,
he’s bn beating her even before he asked
her to marry him but love is stupid
sometimes. When she agreed to marry
him fine, we said ‘okay, do a private and
not a big wedding in case things fall apart

but they said no…it’s money sharing
formula that is worrying them” one of the
sources in the circle confidently told me.
Today is Tunji’s birthday and although
congratulatory messages have started
pouring in, Tiwa is saying nothing and
that’s kinda unusual of her.
Also, she has sacked him and gotten
herself a new manager too…someone else
now answers as her manager…

@OP,
people like you are a disappointment to the profession. why would I as an architect that spent several yrs getting a BSc and MSc start posting designs on a public forum free of charge thereby creating the impression that we do is available on the cheap.
I kno that many folks will be appreciative of your "kind" gesture but as a professional of several years experience I am not amused.
I cannot blame you alone as the moderator who saw it fit to display this on the FP is also guilty of this folly. as a brother I have to advice u against this as it makes u appear to be HUNGRY.
