Barely a week after claiming responsibility for the deadly attacks that claimed 132 lives in Paris, France, and for the second time this week, terrorist sect Islamic State has threatened to blow up the office and residence of the President of the United States, the White House. This is contained in a new video footage titled Paris before Rome released on Thursday, where a turbaned man hints at potential suicide attacks and car bombings on US soil. An earlier video targeted at the US released by IS earlier in the week showed the jihadists threatening to blow up New York, showing images of Times Square, Herald Square and Manhattan. Yet another released on Monday showed the terrorist saying the US capital, Washington DC will be attacked the way Paris was attacked. The jihadists warned other countries against the example set by French President Francoise Hollande and US President Barack Obama, claiming they would blow up the latter’s official residence because it contained false idols. In a reaction to the video directed at New York, the police in the state have confirmed seeing the video, while affirming that they are vigilant. However the police say there is no current specific threat to the city at the moment.

In a statement issued on Thursday, November 19, the Peoples Democratic Party in Osun state said it had unveiled an alleged plan by the state governor, Rauf Aregbesola, to deploy 15,000 persons to Kogi state with the intent of rigging the elections in favour of the All Progressives Congress, Information Nigeria reports. According to the party’s spokesperson, Diran Odeyemi, the plot by the Osun state governor was targeted at using voters from his state who are APC members, to garner votes for the APC candidate, Prince Abubakar Audu in Saturday’s governorship election. However, Governor Idris Wada of the state had also accused the APC of trying to frustrate the opposition by mounting a well-orchestrated campaign of intimidation and harassment. He had also said that the said move was intended to cause jitters among the opposition in order to gain an unfair advantage in Saturday’s gubernatorial election in the state, Daily Post reports. Wada has also accused his Edo state counterpart, Governor Adams Oshiomole, of sponsoring cultists to disrupt tomorrow’s governorship election in Kogi state. Apart from all those accusations put forward by the state governor, Odeyemi said: “Reports reaching us indicate that 15,000 members of the APC from Osun had been mobilized and would be deployed to the different local government areas in the state, particularly those where Prince Audu is popular. “We want the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Solomon Arase, and the director general of the Department of the State Security (DSS), Kifasi to immediately act on this information and prevent the move by Osun governor to storm Kogi with APC members from Osun. “We want to recall the arrest of some APC members from Osun state led by the senior special assistant to Governor Aregbesola on inter- governmental affairs, Waheed Lawal, on the eve of the 2014 Anambra state governorship poll by the eagle-eyed men of DSS in Imo state enroute Anambra state.” Odeyemi in the statement further recalled the role Aregbesola had allegedly in what he described the “failed efforts” to unseat Governor Segun Mimiko in 2002 Ondo governorship poll and his financial efforts to return Kayode Fayemi to office as Ekiti state governor for another term last year June. Calling on President Muhammadu Buhari to advise security agencies to remain neutral in the discharge of their duties, Odeyemi added that the gains recorded since the return of democracy in 1999 should not be allowed to be rubbished by a few persons in power. In its final admonition, the party asked its members and all eligible voters to be at alert during the governorship poll in Kogi on Saturday. In a swift reaction to the previous allegations that the presidency had been planning to rig the Kogi state election, Malam Garba Shehu, the president’s senior special assistant on media and publicity, denied the claim, saying that it would accept the outcome of the election. Meanwhile, the IGP had disclosed on Tuesday, November 17, that the police were already aware of plans by some politicians in the state to dress thugs in police uniform during the Kogi election all in a bid to cause mayhem.

These are not the best of times for popular Nollywood actress Toyin Aimakhu who recently packed out of her matrimonial home over allegation of infidelity on the part of her husband, Adeniyi Johnson. Few weeks after she left her husband’s house, the actress was said to have moved on with Ebony Film Boss and ex-lover Seun Egbegbe but the actress denied the romance. In a recent interview, Toyin Aimakhu said she’s not dating Mr Egbegbe while the Ebony Film CEO confirmed their romance to another media outlet. In the wake of the conflicting interviews, Seun Egbegbe who is reportedly funding Toyin Aimakhu’s lavish lifestyle and her movies was said to have challenged her on why she’s denying their romance openly, this soon generated a hot argument. At a point, Toyin raised her voice on him, telling him that she couldn’t grant his request because she just quit her marriage and that people might not see their romance in a good light if they sensed she has quickly rushed into another relationship. This was said to have infuriated Seun who allegedly hit her and beat her to a pulp. Few hours after they both left the ‘boxing ring’, Toyin packed a few of her belongings and hit Ibadan where her family resides to console herself of the attack and of course from those prying her. As it stands, her Instagram followers are clueless on her condition. She didn’t come to her IG page for 3 days until few hours ago when she shared a old photo of herself to put to rest the attack story. Meanwhile, close friends who broke this news to us swore that the actress is not in her right frame of mind now. She has suddenly stopped picking her calls. One of our sources who is close to Seun Egbegbe’s house in Ikeja Lagos confirmed the report from neighbours who reportedly intervened at the height of the attack. No’ lele’ if she denies it, this is the truth of the story sha. It would be recalled that some weeks back during the movie premiere of Mercy Aigbe’s movie, ‘Victims’ Nigeriafilms.com reported that the actress now moves around with bodyguard to avoid any form of harassment.

Meet 41-year-old Pat Hardison, a former
firefighter from Tennessee who lost most of his
face when his fireman’s mask melted during a
blaze in a mobile home in 2001.
He said his disfigured features made his young
children scream in terror – and he despaired of
ever living a normal life again. But now Hardison
has been given a new face – and new hope –
thanks to the riskiest face transplant ever
performed.
The father of five had the face of 26-year-old
David Rodebaugh grafted on to what remained of
his own features in August this year after the
young man died in a cycling crash.
The surgery was so perilous that Hardison was
told he had only a 50 per cent chance of
surviving it. But three months later he is thriving
and boasts: ‘Now I’m just an average guy.’
The amazing transformation was only made
possible when Rodebaugh’s mom agreed to the
transplant, noting that her son had always wanted
to be a firefighter.
Recalling the incident, he told ABC:
‘It was just a normal day. Just like every other
fire…we went in looking for a lady.’
He entered the house with three other firefighters
but the ceiling collapsed around him.
‘[My mask] was melting to my face,’ Hardison
said. ‘My hose [was] already melted.
He pulled the mask off, held his breath and
closed his eyes, which doctors say saved his
sight and prevented smoke from damaging his
throat and lungs.
The former firefighter spent 63 days in hospital
and was given the semblance of a face with flesh
taken from his thighs. He had lost his ears, lips,
most of his nose and virtually all of his eyelid
tissue.
Because of this, he was unable to see properly.
When he returned home, he recalled how his
three young children, Alison, six, Dalton, three and
Averi, two, were terrified of him.
‘My kids were scared of me. You can’t blame
them. They’re young kids.’He playfully told them
and other curious children that he had fought a
bear but they ‘ran screaming and crying when
they saw me. There are things worse than dying.
Even though he had two more children, Braden
and Cullen after the accident, the impact of his
accident put a huge strain on his family life and
after ten years of marriage, he and his wife
Chrissi divorced.
More than 100 doctors, nurses, technical and
support staff took part in the 26-hour operation,
conducted in mid-August at the NYU Langone
Medical Center. [Culled from Mailonline]

Pro-Biafra supporters in Umuahia |
Kanu’s sister joined a protest in his home state

The family members of the detained Radio Biafra director Nnamdi Kanu joined a protest organised by the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOD) in Umuahia, the capital of Abia state. Kanu’s sister joined a protest in his home state The protestors started from Port Harcourt on November 15 with IPOD activists walking to Aba and then Umuahia. As they trekked to Aba, the number increased. On getting to Ubakala, close to Umuahia, the group was stopped by security personnel who attempted to disperse them but failed. The protesters passed the night at Ubakala, where they were joined by Kanu’s mother, Ugo Eze Sally Nnenne Kanu, and sister, Princess Chichi Kanu, at 5.30am yesterday. Lolo Kanu, the mother of the detained leader with other members of the royal family, joined the activists in Umuahia city, the home town of Nnamdi Kanu. Trekking together with the Biafra supporters, she continuously called for the release of her son who is still being held by the DSS. However, Okezie Ikpeazu, the governor of Abia state, cautioned the pro-Biafra protestors seeking the release of their leader and the creation of Biafra state against disrupting the peace in the state capital. The activists paraded through the main streets of the city under the watch of security operatives who followed them from place to place. They went to Isi Court, in Umuahia South, Old Umuahia Road, Aba Road, Umuwaya Road, Isi Gate, Bende Road, Enugu Road and Ama Hausa, among other places. Before dispersing, the pro-Biafra agitators said they would meet again to continue the protest, which is expected to last for three days IPOD supporters have been protesting in main cities in the south-east and south-south demanding Kanu’s immediate release. He was arrested in October. President Muhammadu Buhari has finally reacted to the pro-Biafra protests, stating that Nigeria remains an indivisible nation with the citizens pushing for a common interest. |
It is uncommon for women to totally shave their hair and when this happens, eyebrows are raised and questions are asked. Though in some parts of Nigeria, women are forced to go bald, but this happens mostly when the affected woman loses her husband. Popular singer and vocalist, Waje, had her hair shaved by her in-laws in a stage play that was presented over the weekend at MUSON Centre. Waje was one of the casts for the play titled 'Ewuro'. Despite going bald, the singer still looks charming as usual. https://instagram.com/p/-HwKT6CGvV/
