“IF I WIN, YOU ALL LEAVE”

American Billionaire and Republican Presidential Front-runner, Donald Trump, has shot a subtle warning to the Nigerian Community in the United States, after he said all Nigerians would be made to leave the country “when he becomes President”.

He made the “threat” during a rally at Wichita, Kansas. According to Donald Trump, Nigerians ad Mexicans have taken all the jobs meant for honest hard working Americans.

“To Make America great again, we need to get rid of the Muslims, Mexicans and the Africans, especially the Nigerians. They take all our jobs, jobs meant for honest hard working Americans, and when we don’t give them the jobs, the Muslims blow us up”, Trump said.

“We need to get the Africans out. Not the blacks, the Africans. Especially the Nigerians. They’re everywhere. I went for a rally in Alaska and met just one African in the entire state. Where was he from? Nigeria! He’s in Alaska taking our jobs. They’re in Houston taking our jobs. Why can’t they stay in their own country? Why? I’ll tell you why. Because they are corrupt. Their Governments are so corrupt, they rob the people blind and bring it all here to spend. And their people run away and come down here and take our jobs! We can’t have that! If I become president, we’ll send them all home. We’ll build a wall at the Atlantic Shore. Then maybe we’ll re-colonize them because obviously they did not learn a damn thing from the British!”

His speech was met with raucous applause by the 10,000 strong predominantly Caucasian audience. What this portends for Nigeria in the event of the Trump victory is still unclear, but the Nigerian Ambassador to the US has so far allayed fears of all Nigerians living in the USA, although we gather he has secretly packed his bags and is set to move to Mexico or Canada if Trump becomes President.

I hope our American cousins have made adequate plans back home…..

It was a scandal that rocked the nation. A 35-year-old teacher was dating her 13 year-old student. I remember it like it was yesterday though it was nearly 20 years ago. So when I heard that Barbara Walters was doing a follow-up special on TV I had to break out the homemade popcorn with extra cheese. What? To think that they’re still together, and after all these years! It got me wondering if maybe the bulk of us got it wrong and instead of this kid being a victim who lost his childhood to this deranged teacher, it’s actually a love story in disguise…

First of all, I discover some interesting facts that I never really knew, or had forgotten. Like the fact that Mary Kay Letourneau was already married with four kids when she got pregnant by 13-year-old Vili Fualaau. It was then that the scandal broke, her marriage ended, and she was sent to prison for a few months under the condition that she would stop seeing Vili. However, not a month after her release, she was arrested a second time. Mama just couldn’t stay away from the kid. This time, the judge was infuriated and sentenced her to the full seven years that she should have gotten the first time around. But it didn’t end there, she was already pregnant with Vili’s second child, which she gave birth to in prison. By the time she was released in 2004, Vili was over 18-years-old so they were able to resume their relationship and married in 2005. Today, they live in the same Seattle town with their two daughters who are now 16 and 17 years old. Talk about drama!

I’m listening to this re-cap and it’s hard for me not to think, poor kid. He came from a broken home, and here’s this beautiful teacher–he said she looked like a movie star–who is showing him more attention than he’s probably used to. Of course, he fell hard. Next thing you know he’s a father with two kids and she’s in prison. Of course, he waited for her to get out. Where was he going to go as a high school dropout with two kids? Plus, whenever people try to keep two lovers apart they become that much more determined to be together. Forbidden love tastes that much sweeter.

What pissed me off more than Mary Kay’s refusal to avoid this kid’s advances was her refusal to acknowledge that she’d done anything wrong. From lying to her former husband to dating a minor. She even admitted that she never expected jail time. I’m looking at this woman, like, Seriously? Did you think this was a romance novel?! Then I realize that it’s her sense of entitlement that’s freaking me out. Why shouldn’t she be able to have this broken Somoan kid if she wanted? It’s interesting because her story is eerily similar to that of her father who was a Congressman and college professor who had two children with his mistress, who just happened to be a former student? Mary Kay talks about her parent’s break up and ultimate reconciliation as if it’s the greatest love story told to man. So I’m looking at Vili like he never had a chance.

And then Barbara turns her attention to Vili. She wants to know how he’s dealt with dropping out of school, his brushes with the law, alcoholism and depression.

He says for years the situation left him traumatized. “If you’re going to call someone a victim make sure that that victim is getting all the help they want and need. There was no real guidance or help on how to figure this out.”

There was also a feeling of hopelessness around wanting to express himself and be understood, but not being able to do that because of his lack of education. Today, when he starts feeling sad about this part of his life he chooses to focus on the beauty that came from it and where he can take that.

When asked how he’d feel if one of his own daughters wanted to date a teacher he says he wouldn’t encourage it because you don’t know what you want at that age.

I start rethinking this idea of Vili as a victim. Yes, his life hasn’t been easy, but he seems incredibly self-aware and appears to be a solid father and husband. His daughters know how their parents met and appear to be very well adjusted. He’s a DJ and Mary Kay is a legal assistant. They’re still together when half of all marriages end in divorce. They still live in the same Seattle town so nobody ran or is hiding. Is he a victim? He doesn’t see himself that way. Perhaps he never bought into that label or shunned it once he realized that victims really don’t get no help.

He told Barbara he was able to deal with his depression when he decided that his problems weren’t going to go away by sitting around.

It got me thinking, why am I seeing him as a victim? Does it make me feel good to have someone else to pity? Poor Vili, stuck with the woman he fell in love with at 12-years-old. Even he says he feels ‘happy’ and ‘safe.’ Obviously, it’s enough for him so it’s got to be enough for me. Given everything, I’m going to mind my own business and wish him and his family a nice life.

IDOWU ILEMOBAYO GRATOME, you destroyed someone marriage and you want to have yours...karma is waiting

See the bastard...karma is waiting for him

The project is a private initiative that enticed government and the owners cited it in Lagos, what is the big deal about that. Nigeria Content Development keyed into it to promote local content, GEJ is ill - advised on it, his aides takes joy in perpetually embarrassing GEJ on most of his decisions. I pity him.

msrita. I can tell you that he knows you like him and he likes you too. You need to detach yourself from the most wanted guy and go solo or move with girls only for now. He doesn't want to get turned off when he comes to you or he doesn't want to chase another guy's girl. Be smart about it and he would come for you when found out you on your own.

Guerrilla war and insurgency has never been won. Look at Iraq, Afghanistan, Palestine-Israel etc. It lingers for years, these are not after money but pursuing an ideological doctrine. They will fight our soldiers as if they are ready to die but kill as many as possible. Mind you no soldiers want to die, he has wife and children, but these boko haram has none even if he has, the wife is even supporting him to keep fighting. Look at the two scenarios. It will get to a time our soldiers will be running away from confronting them, it is a case of somebody going to war to fight, kill and die and the other going to war to kill and return home. They are not equal!!!

These guys are infused with the spirit of Jihad, it is a spirit that makes you to love death more than life, makes you fearless of any being and keeps you fighting. They are not motivated by money nor power but the ideology of crushing their enemies. The Sultan of Sokoto understands these, likewise every Muslims. These guys will not stop until their mission is achieved. It is better FG call them to talk, they are not faceless nor are they spirit. These guys will keep fighting until they are no more, they are resilience can be compared to Alqaeda fighters. FGN should grant them amnesty.

I AM MARRIED WITH THREE KIDS. It is not normal for a man to do that but i will encourage you to communicate with him, talk with him to stop it if he loves you, advise him what to do when he is angry. Tell him to make a positional change if he is annoyed, if he is annoyed while standing tell him to sit down or vice versa. Tell him to drink water to calm him down when he is annoyed and i am sure he would stop spitting on you with this behavioral counter measures against spitting. take care. I wish you well.

Dana: Air crash reports doctored – Ex Aviation Minister

Amid the moves by the Federal Government to launch investigations into last Sunday’s plane crash in Lagos that claimed over 160 lives, Sunday Vanguard can reveal why reports of past air crash investigations in Nigeria were never made public.

The Federal Government, according to top placed sources, failed to make public the reports because, in some instances, the local versions contradicted the versions prepared by the National Transportation and Safety Board (NTSB) of the US, renowned for air crash investigations across the world. The situation thus puts the government in a quandary.

A former Aviation Minister, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode corroborated this when he told Sunday Vanguard, last week, that the contents and information retrieved from the black boxes of crashed planes in the country were kept away by some interests “in an attempt to manipulate the reports”.

Fani-Kayode said: “I must tell you that in practice what has happened since 2005 is that the contents of and information in the black boxes of the various planes that crashed have either been kept away from the Nigerian public or the black box itself has just disappeared or been stolen. The result is that no one really gets to know the truth about what really happened regarding these crashes except for those in the corridors of power at the Ministry of Aviation.

“Let me tell you what happened in the past. This is done in an attempt to hide that truth and manipulate the report. I sincerely hope that this does not happen in this case. I am also hoping that the government will allow the American National Transportation Safety Board, NTSB which is the agency that is charged to investigate all air crashes all over the world, a free reign and a free hand to do its job to help in establishing what really happened”.

The Chairman of Oshodi/Isolo LGA is my very good friend, we both went to LASPOTECH together in the 90's, i even know the supposed brother, i never knew them to be like this, there are two sides to a coin, he needs to be heard. I will call him and ask him on this issue and caution him to thread carefully to save his political career.
This can be resolved amicably and i hope Ayo too take it easy.

you are possessed! pervert, how could that be in your head, your mom's friend!!!, there are billions of girls out there for you to meet, try it and incur the wrath of your mom forever, silly boy

Ramadan: I don’t fast, will I be punished?

More Sunlight of Islam Stories

I do not fast. Will I be punished on the Day of Resurrection? Fasting in Ramadan is one of the pillars on which Islam is built. Allah tells us that He has prescribed it for the believers of this ummah [nation], as He prescribed it for those who came before them.
Al-Bukhaari ( and Muslim (16) narrated that Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said:

The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “Islam is built on five (pillars): the testimony that there is no god but Allah and Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah; establishing prayer; paying zakah; Hajj; and fasting Ramadan.”

Whoever does not fast has abandoned one of the pillars of Islam, and is committing a major sin. Indeed some of the pious believers were of the view that he is a kaafir [disbeliever] and apostate – we seek refuge with Allah from that.

Whoever does not fast in Ramadan without being sick or having any other excuse that allows him not to fast is more evil than the adulterer or drunkard, indeed they doubted his Islam and thought that this was heresy.

The brother who asked this question is advised to fear Allah and to beware of His wrath, vengeance and a painful punishment. He should hasten to repent to Allah before the destroyer of pleasures that splits people apart [i.e., death] takes him unawares. Today there is action and no reckoning, but tomorrow there will be the reckoning and no action. Note that whoever repents, Allah will accept his repentance, and whoever draws closer to Allah one hand span, Allah will draw closer to him one cubit. For Allah is Most Generous, Forbearing and Most Merciful.

If you try fasting and find out how easy it is and what comfort it brings and how close it brings you to Allah, you will never give it up. Think about what Allah says at the end of the verses on fasting: “Allah intends for you ease, and He does not want to make things difficult for you”[al-Baqarah 2:185]

The phrase, “so that you may be grateful to Him” shows that fasting is a blessing for which we must give thanks. Hence some of the pious wished that the whole year was Ramadan. We ask Allah to help you and guide you, and to open your heart to that which will bring you happiness in this world and in the Hereafter.
My question is complex. First, during the first Ramadan that my wife and I were married, we did something that we are ashamed of and have sincerely repented for; and that is having intercourse while fasting. Unfortunately, this occurred two or three times.

I have come to know that the correct action for this is to: first free a slave or second, fast for 60 days continuously. The first option of freeing a slave is not possible, so my question is about fasting.
I could fast for 60 days but since it is continuous, I believe that I would not be able to provide for my family (fasting weakens me, and my job is a physical one. Without energy, it becomes unbelievably difficult). It is hard enough to make it through Ramadan and earn enough money (with Allah’s will) to provide for my family. What options are left to me.

I am aware of the Hadith where a poor man came to the prophet and he was given the options free a slave, fast, and he couldn’t do either, so he was given dates to give to the poorest family, which was his, so he took them to his family. How does this apply to me? I alhamdulillah, am not rich, but am not poor either. My wife and I feel tremendous guilt about this. Please help! Also, if one is to fast, is the 60-day for each time one had intercourse during the daytime in Ramadan?

Praise be to Allah. Our advice is that you should try to fast the two consecutive months during cold days when the days will be shorter and it will be less difficult for you, or during the annual leave which your employer gives you, and other opportunities which you can make use of for this purpose. If you really and truly cannot fast, then it is permissible for you to feed 60 poor persons. You could give them food in stages – according to what you are able to do – until you have fed the complete number.

Your wife also has to make a similar expiation if she was a willing partner in the act of intercourse during the day in Ramadan. If the number of times that intercourse took place happened on different days, then you have to offer expiation for each day on which the sanctity of the sacred month was broken. The author of Kifaayat al-Taalib said: “The number of expiations corresponds to the number of days, not to the number of times the act was repeated on one day before the payment of any expiation.

This is by consensus (of the scholars).” It was said in Haashiyat al-Dasooqi: “It is not counted by the number of times a person ate or had intercourse in one day.” The author of Mughni al-Muhtaaj said: “Expiation is counted by the number of misdeeds… (whoever had intercourse on two different days must pay expiation twice)… because each day is a separate, independent act of worship, so the expiation for both cannot be combined… If the act of intercourse happened several times in one day, the separate acts are not counted [i.e. one expiation is sufficient].”

Allah burdens not any person, but that which he can bear.
The Hadith to which you referred in your question was narrated by Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) who said: “Whilst we were sitting with the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), a man came to him and said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, I am doomed!’ He said, ‘What happened to you?’ He said: ‘I had intercourse with my wife whilst I was fasting.’

The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) asked: ‘Could you find a slave you could set free?’ He said, ‘No.’ He asked, ‘Are you able to fast for two consecutive months?’ He said, ‘No.’ He asked, ‘Can you feed 60 poor persons?’ He said, ‘No.’ The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) fell silent. Whilst we were (sitting) like that, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was brought a container of dates.

He said, ‘Where is the one who was asking?’ The man said, ‘I (am here).’ He said, ‘Take these and give them in charity.’ The man said, ‘Who is poorer than I am, O Messenger of Allah? There is no household between the two lava fields (i.e., in Madinah) that is poorer than my household.’ The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) smiled until his back teeth could be seen, then he said: ‘Feed it to your family.’” (Reported by al-Bukhaari, Fath, 1936).

According to a report narrated by Ahmad from ‘Aa’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her), whilst the Prophet was sitting in the shade of the fortress of Hassan, a man came to him and said, “I have been burnt, O Messenger of Allah!” He asked, “What is wrong with you?” He said, “I had intercourse with my wife whilst I was fasting.” She [‘Aa’ishah] said: that was in Ramadan. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said to him, “Sit down,” so he sat down at the back of the gathering.

Then a man came with a donkey on whose back was a basket of dates, and said: “This is my sadaqah (charity) O Messenger of Allah.” The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, “Where is the burnt one who just came?” He said: “Here I am, O Messenger of Allah.” He said: “Take this and give it in charity.” He said, “Where should it go except to me and my family, O Messenger of Allah? By Him Who sent you with the truth, I cannot find anything for me and my family.” He said: “Take it.” So he took it. (al-Musnad 6/276).

We ask Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, to forgive us our sins and transgressions and to accept our repentance, for He is the Acceptor of Repentance, the Most Merciful.

Nigerian billionaire Aliko Dangote is reportedly planning to enter the race to snap up the 16% stake of Arsenal's fourth largest shareholder Lady Nina Bracwell-Smith.

Aliko Dangote

Aliko Dangote (L) is the 261st richest person in the world

Dangote, one of Africa's richest men, is said to have registered his interest in the shareholding being sold by Bracewell-Smith, according to The Sunday Times.

The move could spark a takeover battle for the Gunners, with other contenders including its two biggest current investors - Stan Kroenke and Alisher Usmanov - who would be forced to launch a full takeover bid for the club if they secured the stake.

Mr Dangote is reportedly a passionate football fan and has the wealth to go head-to-head with sports entrepreneur Kroenke and Russian oligarch Usmanov.

The Nigerian industrialist has stood for the role of president of the Nigerian football association and is believed to have donated cash to the Nigerian national football team.

Mr Dangote founded manufacturing empire Dangote Group and was formerly head of the Nigerian stock exchange. He was named as the 261st richest person in the world on the 2009 Forbes rich list, with an estimated fortune of $2.5 billion.

Finance house Blackstone is now thought to have placed him on the shortlist to buy the Arsenal stake, with Lady Bracewell-Smith is said to be seeking £160 million for her stake after putting it on the sale block earlier this year.

Allah is the greatest

I thought Ohsisi had already diagnosed what is wrong with the baby . . . except of course muslim mods uncomfortable with the truth promptly scrubbed her posts and most likely banned her. The kid has Dermatographic urticaria



Dermatographic urticaria (also known as dermographism, dermatographism or "skin writing" is a skin disorder seen in 4–5% of the population and is one of the most common types of urticaria,[1] in which the skin becomes raised and inflamed when stroked or rubbed with a dull object. So, how are they the same , watch the video and score yourself. The boy's body was not in any stroked or robbed. It is a sign of Allah, face it

Ali Yakubov: 9 Month Old Russian Boy With Quran On Body

A 9-month old Russian baby boy has left doctors baffled in Dagestan, Russia after phrases from the holy Koran (Quran) began appearing on his skin. These sayings from the Islamic holy book are said to appear on nine-month-old Ali Yakubov's back, arms, legs and stomach, before fading away and being replaced with new sayings.

Ali's parents were left stunned when the word Allah appeared on Ali Yakubov's chin soon after his birth. Since then scores of writings in the Arabic script have appeared almost all over his body. Medics have denied that the marks are from someone writing on the child's skin.


The kid's mother, Madina Yakubov, said that she and her husband were not religious until the words started appearing on his skin.


Ever since the phenomenon started, the boy has become a focus of Muslim homage in his home province of Dagestan, close to war-ravaged Chechnya in the south of Russia.


Local MP Akhmedpasha Amiralaev said: "This boy is a pure sign of God. Allah sent him to Dagestan in order to stop revolts and tension in our republic."

The baby boy's mother said: "Normally those signs appear twice a week - on Mondays and on the nights between Thursdays and Fridays.


"Ali always feels bad when it is happening. He cries and his temperature goes up."


"It's impossible to hold him when it's happening, his body is actively moving, so we put him into his cradle. It's so hard to watch him suffering."

THE United States (US), Indian and Israeli top security agencies have been fingered as conspirators in the Christmas day attempt by Umar Faruok AbdulMutallab, son of former chairman, FirstBank of Nigeria Plc, Dr. Umaru Abdulmutallab, to detonate chemical explosives aboard Delta Airlines flight 253, from Amsterdam Schiphol to Detroit, the United States.

According to Intelligence sources’ reports gathered on Prison Planet networks and “Forums” of Pravda, a Russian news and analysis medium, Abdulmutallab’s flight from Amsterdam Schiphol to Detroit was said to be a false flag operation carried out by the intelligence tripartite grouping of the United States’ CIA, Israeli’s Foreign Intelligence Agency (Mossad), and Research and Analysis Wing (RAW) of Indian Inteligence.

As stated in Rupee News, the intelligence report also indicted CIA, Mossad and RAW as being behind the December 28 terrorist attack on Mumbai, three days after AbdulMutallab’s foiled attempt.

The three agencies with former Afghan KHAD intelligence agents, the report also said, were behind the assasination of former Pakistani Prime Minister, Benazir Bhutto.

http://www.tribune.com.ng/06012010/news/news3.html

The India’s Rupee News had reported that the Israeli prime minister recently publicly admitted helping India in Kargil, and the aim of this was to distabilise Pakistan after the International Monetary Fund (IMF) failed in 2000 in its attempt to create a provincial autonomy, which would make the Pakistani centre bankrupt and trigger an implosion.

Consequent upon AbdulMutallab’s terrorist act, the US, on Monday, announced new security measures, principal of which was the deployment of privacy-invasive millimeter wave (MMW) equipment to conduct full body scanning at airports in North America and Europe.

This measure has since been defended by the ranking member of the US Homeland Security Committee, Representative Peter King, an ardent defender of the Catholic Church and its prelates in Ireland.

He said the MMW scanning system, which can image the naked bodies of passengers, including children and babies, was an increase in the US military and intelligence presence in Yemen.

Also, this new security measure supports retention of US USAPATRIOT Act surveillance provisions,” but it was seen as “an increase in racial profiling of Arabs and Muslims — and because Mutallab is African — blacks in the United States, and more cumbersome travel restrictions for airline passengers.”

But the neocon propagandists in US, who kicked against this development, said such indicated that AbdulMutallab was “a witting accomplice of a larger plot cooked up by American, Israeli, Indian intelligence agents to carry out yet another false flag terror operation on American soil.”

They used the eyewitness testimonies of Michigan attorney, Kurt Haskell, and his attorney wife, Lori Haskell, as criticised by the corporate media after the two featured on major US television networks and said they saw “a well-dressed Indian man arrange for Mutallab to board Delta 253 without a passport at the check-in desk at Schiphol.”

Haskell said on CBS News that: “Only the Indian man spoke, and what he said was, this man needs to board the plane, and he doesn’t have a passport. And the ticket agent then responded saying you need a passport to board the plane, and the Indian man then said he’s from Sudan. We do this all the time.”

The Intelligence report thus affirmed that: “WMR has learned that the Indian man is suspected by Asian intelligence services of being a RAW agent, who used his influence to convince airline and airport security personnel that Mutallab was a bona fide Sudanese refugee.”

According to the report, “Mutallab reportedly spent several hours in a Schiphol airport lounge before boarding the Delta flight and Dutch agents are reportedly scanning Schiphol CCTV footage and have reason to believe that Mutallab had accomplices at the airport, which bolsters the witness accounts of the Haskells.”

It stated further that: “The FBI has interviewed the Haskells and the bureau, as is its modus operandi, appears to be intimidating witnesses and pressuring them to support the government’s party line.”

Against the earlier circulated report that AbdulMutallab travelled to the US without a passport, as stated in the Intelligence report: “The neocon spin machine is also refuting reports that Mutallab travelled to the United States without a passport and that his ticket was only one-way.

“The facts emerging are that Mutallab was not travelling on a Nigerian passport but on an Italian passport.” It said this was possible because his father, Dr. Mutallab “happens to hold the Italian Order of Merit.

“In addition, Mutallab’s ticket was purchased in Accra, Ghana, with $2,831 in cash and was later re-issued, on December 16, with a different itinerary at the KLM office in Lagos.

“The original itinerary was Lagos-Amsterdam-Detroit-Amsterdam-Accra but the return leg on January 8, 2010, was changed from Amsterdam to Lagos instead of Accra.”

All these, the report said could only be made possible by conspiracy from top security agents.

As gathered: “Previously, WMR reported that the security company that cleared Mutallab in Schiphol is ICTS, a firm that is headquartered in Israel and Amstelveen, Netherlands.”

This same firm, according to the Intelligence gathering, also cleared the attempted shoe bomber Richard Reid, for a Miami-bound American Airlines flight from Paris in December 2001.

Reid is currently serving a life sentence in the US.

The report said: “Reid had previously travelled to Turkey, Pakistan, Israel, Egypt, the Netherlands, Belgium and France and he obtained pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN), a component of the explosive Semtex, and his specially designed shoes in Amsterdam.

“Reid was linked by French authorities to French convert to Islam, Jerome Courtailler, who, in 2004, was sentenced in absentia by a Dutch court to six years for plotting to attack US targets in Belgium and France. Mutallab’s undershorts also contained PETN.

With similarities cited in Reid and AbdulMutallab’s tactics, the Intelligence gathering indicated that “There is a possibility that Mutallab was recruited to carry out a false flag attack after another one failed on November 13.”

ABUJA—Political hawks have successfully convinced President Umaru Yar’Adua to endorse the Supplementary Budget to be operated till next March, and also worked on him not to sign another document to allow Vice-President Goodluck Jonathan act as President, Vanguard can authoritatively reveal.
The Supplementary Budget, according to sources, is to fast-track development in the Niger Delta, among other things.
Yar’Adua signed the document on his sick bed in the King Faisal Specialist Hospital in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

According to impeccable sources, the cabal that fashioned the documents eventually presented to the President by his Principal Secretary, Mr. David Edevbie, were said to be out to buy time towards the assumption that their principal will be strong enough to resume work fully in mid-January.

Another scheme seemingly on the cabals’ chess board is the arrangement that the out-going Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Idris Legbo Kutigi, swears in Justice Aloysius Katsina-Alu as the new Chief Justice.

A statement by the Secretary of the National Judicial Council, Mr Danladi Halilu, confirmed that Kutigi will swear in Justice Katsina-Alu as the Chief Justice and Justice Isa Ayo-Salami as the President of the Court of Appeal on Thursday, December, 30.

The Attorney-General of the Federation, Chief Michael Aondoakaa (SAN), had, at the weekend said President Yar’Adua needed not fly from Saudi Arabia to perform the swearing-in by himself.

He had argued that the out-going CJN was permitted under the law to perform the function.
NJC had keyed into the explanation but Aondoakaa’s colleagues argued saying that his explanation has no basis in law and logic.

According to an Ibadan-based member of the Inner Bar, Chief Adeniyi Akintola (SAN), it would be strange if such was allowed to happen because such arrangement is not supported by law and logic.

According to him: “The Attorney-General like most Nigerian public officers doesn’t have original thoughts of his own. They are not original in their thoughts. That position, with due respect, was not his own.

“The idea was sold by a lady lawyer. She sent an e-mail to Aondoakaa (SAN) to sell the idea. She forwarded the same e-mail to many of us, making that suggestion. I do not want to mention her name.

“The truth of the matter is that if you carry out that suggestion, you will be creating a kind of absurdity. Look at it this way: if the outgoing Chief Justice of Nigeria will be swearing in the in-coming one, I ask: in what capacity?

‘If the incumbent swears in the in-coming one before he retires, the implication is that we will be having two CJNs at the same time.

“And, if the outgoing CJN swears in the in-coming one immediately after he retires, in what capacity will he be doing that when he is no longer CJN?

“They are confusing the American situation with ours. In the case of the Nigerian presidential system, the executive appoints the head of the court.

“It is a political appointment. And, necessarily so, CJN must be sworn in by the head of the executive. It is unlike the American situation where the entire public and members of the public are involved in who becomes CJN and even who becomes a Supreme Court justice.

‘Ours is a different scenario. Most of the times, our people swallow, hook, line and sinker the ideas of foreign governance without looking at the background and the position of the law in those areas.

“You will be creating a kind of unconscionable absurdity if you say the outgoing CJN should swear in the incoming one.
“The idea was suggested by a lady and the lady in question forwarded the e-mail she did to Aondoakaa to me.

“The lady flew a kite which was swallowed hook, line and sinker by the AGF.

“She sent it to many lawyers including Professor Sagay, Aturu, Femi Falana and the President of the NBA. He sent it to many senior lawyers.

“The Attorney-General was not original. The truth of the matter is that the country is mired in political quagmire.
“We have no head of the executive properly so-called. And, very soon, there will be no head of the judiciary. We can avoid this problem if Mr. President had done the right thing to allow Jonathan to stand in.”

Meantime, Halilu declared in the statement that the appointments were made by President Yar’Adua on the recommendation of NJC and that the swearing-in will hold at the Supreme Court complex at 11a.m.

A mild drama ensued at Isawo, Ikorodu, Lagos when a 15-year old girl (name withheld), a pupil of Government College, Ikorodu, accused her boyfriend, Akeem Ayinde, 18, and a pastor of the Celestial Church of Christ, Imisi Oluwa Parish, Ikorodu, Prophet Ojo Ikide, of using her blood for ritual.

Speaking with P.M.NEWS, the victim said she had been dating Ayinde, a tailor, for about four months, but after a stern warning from her mother, she stopped the relationship.

But on 9 December, on her way to school, the victim narrated that Akeem abducted her and took her to his aunty’s (Mrs. Kafilat Samson) house at 28, Aiyedogbon Street, Isawo and slept with her, despite her plea that she was a virgin and not ready to have sex.

“After raping me, I was bleeding profusely and he brought out a white handkerchief to clean my private parts. Soon after, his mum came and took us to the Celestial Church where the Prophet told me to sit outside, while Ayinde and his mother were discussing with him inside the church. When the pastor came out, he asked if I was a virgin, and I said yes, and he told me to go home,” she said.

The mother of the victim, Mrs. Omolola Adeyemi, told P.M.NEWS that when she got home that day she did not notice anything, but the victim’s father discovered blood on the bed where she (victim) slept. But when he asked her what was wrong, she said she was menstruating. A week after, she was not able to eat anything and was still bleeding.

Mrs. Adeyemi said she and her husband took her to a pastor for prayers, and it was when she narrated her ordeal and encounter with her boyfriend and his family members in the church, that they notified policemen at the Owutu Division, who promptly arrested the culprit, his mother, the aunt and the pastor.

Narrating his own side, the boyfriend, Akeem, 18 confessed that he made love to the girl and later took her to the church with his mum, because he loved her. He said he wanted to find out from the prophet if he can marry her. When asked why he took his mother along, he said it was his mother who knew the prophet.

In his own confession, Prophet Ikide told P.M.NEWS that when the suspect brought the girl to his church, he told him that the girl was two small, and that she was also in school uniform. He felt embarrassed and told them he could only pray for them and charged them N5,000 for prayers. He explained that he was surprised when the girl and her mum came with the police to arrest him.

The suspects are still being detained at the Owutu Police Station as at the time of filing this report, while the victim was taken to the Ikorodu General Hospital for medical examination.

The police said the suspects would be charged to court after investigation.
