Fifty-four-year-old Mexican, Roberto Esquivel Cabrera, (PICTURED) has been identified as having the world’s longest manhood ever.

He is so enamoured of his member that he once exposed it to two underage girls when he was living in America, obviously hoping to impress them.

He failed in that regard, as an assault charge was preferred against him, leading to his subsequent deportation from the United States.

Measuring a whopping 19.685 inches (half a meter) and weighing nearly one kilogram, Cabrera has been unable to have sex with anyone because of the sheer length and thickness of his manhood.

US President Donald Trump on Monday signed a decree barring US federal funding for foreign NGOs that support abortion, relaunching a battle that has long divided Americans.

It comes just two days after women led a massive protest march in Washington to defend their rights, including to abortion.

The decision to ban foreign aid to groups that lobby in support of abortion rights is certain to deepen concern among already apprehensive US family planning and women’s rights organizations.

WE SHALL SEE

Gambia's newly sworn-in president has ordered the country's armed forces to abandon any loyalty to dictator Yahya Jammeh, as troops from neighbouring Senegal crossed the border to oust him.

Adama Barrow, who won Gambia's elections in December but left the country last week for fear that Mr Jammeh's security forces might kill him, took his oath of office in an improvised ceremony at the modest Gambian embassy office in Senegal.

In a brief televised speech made in a cramped function room, he hailed his inauguration as a "victory for the nation", but warned Mr Jammeh's security forces that they would now be deemed "rebels" if they did not switch sides.

Mr Barrow spoke as a force of more than 1,000 troops, mandated by the regional ECOWAS power bloc, crossed into Gambian territory after two days massing at the border.

why are you laughing

As participants of the Mavrodi Mundial Moneybox (MMM) continue to celebrate the return of the controversial money-doubling scheme which resumed activities on January 13, it has released another bewildering official statement.

The MMM scheme in Nigeria in the early hours of today removed the Get Help (GH) access of some of its participants, otherwise called Mavrodians, throwing more subscribers to panic.

Before now, the scheme has introduced a new system of payment which prioritises participants with smaller sums of money in the system, therefore causing participants with larger sums to wait for payment coupled with a new payout limit.

Though participants have been celebrating its return from a one month hiatus and the unfreezing of their accounts, the scheme has once again put its members in some sort of a panic.

The MMM stated the reason for the missing Get Help (GH) Order on the dashboard of some of its participants, on its website in its official message on its website.

BEING TEXT OF SPEECH BY PASTOR ‘TUNDE BAKARE AT THE STATE OF THE NATION BROADCAST ON SUNDAY, JANUARY 8, 2017.

THEME: LOOKING INTO THE FUTURE WITH THE EYES OF FAITH.

Introduction

Fellow citizens of our great country, we are gathered here again at the turn of the year, as has become customary, to take a timely look at our nation – to examine its social, economic and political landscapes, to test the solidity of its value pillars, to interrogate its spiritual foundations, and to envision its future. We do this, first of all, in keeping with the obligations of that high office, the Office of the Citizen1 , then as patriots and nation builders, and ultimately as watchmen who understand the times and know what the nations ought to do, having been commissioned by God to bring direction to Nigeria, our primary place of assignment.

This address, which I have titled “Looking into the Future 2 with the Eyes of Faith”, will begin with a brief overview of the year 2016 vis-à-vis the word we received, then I will discuss the centrality of vision to development, the inherent flaws in Nigeria’s structure, and sustainable solutions to our social, economic and political challenges.
