CultureWhat Tribe Is This? by Sunjos(op): 3:38pm On Jun 13, 2015
Gbagyi (also spelled Gwarri and Gbari ) are an
ethnic group in central Nigeria. They
predominantly live in the Niger , Kaduna,
States [citation needed ] and the Federal Capital
Territory . They are also found in Nasarawa and
Kogi States in central Nigerian Area.Gbagyi is
the most populated ethnic Group and indigenous
in the Federal Capital Territory of Nigeria and
their major occupation is farming. [1][2]
The Gbagyi people are known to be peace-
loving, transparent and accommodating people.
Northerners are fond of saying in Hausa
language muyi shi Gwari Gwari, "let’s do it like
the Gbagyi" or "in the Gbagyi way". According
to Tanko Chigudu, the Gbagyi people have
emerged as a unique breed among Nigerians:
their culture shows how much they have come to
terms with the universe. Daily they aspire to
give life a meaning no matter the situation they
find themselves. [3]
Gbagyi people were often enslaved by some of
the nearby Hausa-Fulani emirates. [4]
One famous Gbagyi is General and former
President of Nigeria Ibrahim Babangida . [5]

Nairaland GeneralKenyan Lawyer’s Bride Price To Marry Malia Obama by Sunjos(op): 5:43pm On May 29, 2015
A Kenyan lawyer and animal lover proposed to
marry President Barack Obama’s first daughter
with 50 cows, 70 sheep and 30 goats.
Felix Kiprono told The Nairobian newspaper he had
been fantasizing of tying the knot with Malia
Obama since 2008, and had stayed celibate since
then. “I got interested in her in 2008. As a matter
of fact, I haven’t dated anyone since and promise
to be faithful to her. I have shared this with my
family and they are willing to help me raise the
bride price,” he said.
Obama is expected to visit Kenya in July 2015 – a
visit said to cost at least N11 billion. Kiprono plans
to seize the opportunity of the visit to meet “the
love of his life”, pleading with Obama to come with
Malia to the country.
“I am currently drafting a letter to Obama asking
him to please have Malia accompany him for this
trip. I hope the embassy will pass the letter to him.
I will hand it over to the US Ambassador with
whom we have interacted several times.”
Kiprono insists that his love for Malia is real and
has nothing to do with the US first family’s money.
“People might say I am after the family’s money,
which is not the case. My love is real.”
If his request is granted, Kiprono promises to
surprise his queen – not with champagne, but sour
milk.
“If my request is granted, I will not resort to the
cliché of popping champagne. Instead, I will
surprise her with mursik, the traditional Kalenjin
sour milk. As an indication that she is my queen, I
will tie sinendet, which is a sacred plant, around
her head.
“I will propose to her on a popular hill in Bureti
near my father’s land where leaders and warriors
are usually crowned.”
Malia was 10 years old in 2008, when Kiprono
claimed he fell in love with her – she was born in
July 1998.

Abraham Lincoln was elected to Congress in 1846.
John F. Kencnedy was elected to Congress in 1946.
Abraham Lincoln was elected President in 1860.
John F. Kennedy was elected President in 1960.
Both were particularly concerned with civil rights.
Both their wives lost a child while living in the
White House.
Both Presidents were shot on a Friday.
Both Presidents were shot in the head.
Now it gets really weird.
Lincoln's secretary was named Kennedy.
Kennedy's Secretary was named Lincoln.
Both were assassinated by Southerners.
Both were succeeded by Southerners named
Johnson.
Andrew Johnson, who succeeded Lincoln, was born
in 1808.
Lyndon Johnson, who succeeded Kennedy, was
born in 1908.
John Wilkes Booth, who assassinated Lincoln, was
born in 1839.
Lee Harvey Oswald, who assassinated Kennedy,
was born in 1939.
Both assassins were known by their three names.
Both names are composed of fifteen letters.
Now hang on to your seat.
Lincoln was shot at the theater named "Ford."
Kennedy was shot in a car called "Lincoln" made
by "Ford."
Booth and Oswald were assassinated before their
trials.
And here's the "kicker":
A week before Lincoln was shot, he was in Monroe,
Maryland.
A week before Kennedy was shot, he was with
Marilyn Monroe.
AND...................:
Lincoln was shot in a theater and the assassin ran
to a warehouse...
Kennedy was shot from a warehouse and the
assassin ran to a theatre...

HealthMan Who Is Set To Undergo World's First Head Transplant ( Photo) by Sunjos(op): 12:41pm On Apr 13, 2015
A man with a fatal medical condition has spoken
exclusively to MailOnline about how he is set to
become the first person to undergo a head
transplant and hopes it could be as soon as next
year.
Valery Spiridonov says he is ready to put
his trust in controversial surgeon, Dr Sergio
Canavero who claims he can cut off his
head and attach it to a healthy body. Mr
Spiridonov, 30, a computer scientist from
Russia, said: ‘My decision is final and I do
not plan to change my mind.’ As a lifelong
sufferer of the rare genetic Werdnig-
Hoffman muscle wasting disease, he says
he wants the chance of a new body before
he dies.
‘Am I afraid? Yes, of course I am. But it is
not just very scary, but also very
interesting,’ said Mr Spiridonov from his
home in Vladimir, a city 120 miles east of
Moscow. ‘But you have to understand that I
don’t really have many choices’, he said.
‘If I don’t try this chance my fate will be
very sad. With every year my state is
getting worse.’ Dr Canavero and Mr
Spiridonov have talked via Skype though
they have not met yet and the doctor has
not reviewed his medical records.
The Italian told CNN he has received many
email and letters from people seeking the
procedure but he insists the first patients
will be people suffering from a muscle
wasting disease. Dr Canavero has named
the procedure HEAVEN, which is an
acronym for head anastomosis venture.
Anastomosis involves the surgical
connecting of two parts. He insists all the
necessary techniques already exist to
transplant a head onto a donor body. The
first monkey head transplant was
performed 45 years ago and a basic
operation on a mouse was carried out in
China recently.
But critics say Dr Canavero’s plans are
‘pure fantasy’. The Italian has been
compared to the fictional gothic-horror
character Dr Frankenstein.

FamilyRe: My 2 Months Old Marriage Is Crashing - HELP ME by Sunjos: 7:07am On Apr 10, 2015

thanks brother, i was never love bling, i wasnt the kind of newby in relationship so there was never a time i was love blind, i have always call her attention to the issue and how much it brings gap into a marriage, now i need to know what exactly do i do to solve this problem, i dont wanna have to join the league of divorced couple but i must say, i cant focus once she starts cuz i love her a lot.
The truth brother is,
1. Your marriage is not crashing
2. Divorce should not be an option you should settle for. It's out of line for you (as a Christian). You are a Christian I guess: except on the ground of unfaithfulness
3. She is having heart issues.... Except the heart is changed, her attitude won't.
4. You can't change her heart, only God can.
5. Discuss this with God, and let your pastor know and join you in prayers for her too.
6. Prayer is the key.
7. Then keep being nice with her.... Having faith in God. She will change for the best which will have to be sustained by prayers also. Then you will have the best marriage ever.

Science/TechnologyAre Human Head Transplants Coming Soon? by Sunjos(op): 8:50pm On Apr 06, 2015
Story highlights
Dr. Sergio Canavero says he is two years
away from performing the first total human
head transplant
The first patient will be a 30-year-old Russian
man with a rare, genetic muscle wasting
disease
One ethicist says Canavero should be helping
paralyzed patients walk before performing
body transplants
(CNN)— It sounds like the plot for a science
fiction movie.
Someone has a horrific accident and winds up in
the hospital, brain dead and on life support.
Doctors approach the family about organ
donation, but instead of saving as many as eight
lives, the family is asked to donate the whole
body to save just one individual. Perhaps a
quadriplegic with a mind that outmatches their
malfunctioning body.
As crazy as this sounds, to put an entire head on
a new body, a human body, Italian physician Dr.
Sergio Canavero says we are approaching
HEAVEN (an acronym for head anastomosis
venture; anastomosis is surgically connecting
two parts). The pieces are coming together but
there are still many hurdles to jump.
Canavero says he has part of the funding
secured, although he says he can't yet disclose
where the money is coming from as a condition
of the funding. He's also taking the 2015
layman's approach with crowd funding and book
sales.
He has identified Valery Spiridonov as the first
patient. The 30-year-old Russian man suffers
from a rare genetic disorder called Werdnig-
Hoffman disease. Canavero says the man
volunteered. The two men have talked via Skype
but they have yet to meet in person and
Canavero has not reviewed Spiridonov's medical
records.
Canavero says he has a stack of emails and
letters from people who want this procedure.
Many of them are transsexuals who want a new
body, he says. But he insists the first patients
will be people who are suffering from a muscle
wasting disease .

PoliticsOIDA Press Release by Sunjos(op): 3:45pm On Apr 06, 2015
ABUJA NATIVES CONGRATULATE BUHARI ON
VICTORY: SEEKS APPOINTMENT OF
INDIGENOUS FCT MINISTER, SCRAPPING OF
LANDSWAP
Natives of the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja
under the banner of the Original Inhabitants
Development Association of Abuja, OIDA have
congratulated the President-Elect, General
Muhammadu Buhari and Vice President-Elect,
Professor Yemi Osibanjo on their victory in the
March 28 polls.
In a statement by the President of the
association, Pastor Danladi Jeji, the pan-FCT
socio-cultural group said the victory is a right
step towards the fulfilment of the aspiration of
Nigerians through the ballot box. They want the
incoming All Progressives Congress-led Federal
Government to ensure that all Nigerians have a
say in the people-elected government.
“The election of Gen. Buhari is the fulfilment of
our aspiration for a people-centered government
and we will offer maximum support to the
incoming federal government which we are
optimistic will have policies that will benefit not
only original inhabitants of Abuja but also all
Nigerians resident in the capital city” OIDA said.
The natives are asking the President-Elect to
appoint competent natives of Abuja as Minister
of the Federal Capital Territory and political
aides so that the incoming government will not
have a crisis of confidence between it and Abuja
original inhabitants.
The statement adds that Abuja original
inhabitants want “the immediate scrapping of the
Landswap programme of the outgoing minister of
FCT, Bala Mohammed because it is a conduit
pipe for allocation of massive lands to cronies of
the outgoing PDP-led federal government. We
also seek a total audit of land allocations by the
Abuja Geographic and Information System,
AGIS.”
OIDA stated that the natives have “fought and
endured injustice for long in the administration of
the outgoing PDP-led Federal Government
especially on the protracted issues of land-grab,
demolition of native houses, non-development of
satellite towns, marginalization in appointments,
non-compensation of compulsorily acquired lands
and massive sacking of whole villages for the
appropriation of their lands by selfish politicians
and their cronies in government. We have the
confidence in the ability of your government to
end these injustices.”
The group urged the APC-led Federal
Government to create a development
commission to cater for displaced indigenous
communities in Abuja. “The proposed Abuja
Original Inhabitants Development Commission
(AOIDC) should be statutory and derive its
funding from 30% of all sales accruing from
allocable lands within the FCT. When
established, AOIDC should deal with the lingering
issues of relocation, resettlement and
compensation for all project affected
communities and persons.”
The pan-FCT group also commended President
Goodluck Jonathan for accepting defeat and
saving the nation from crises that may have
occured if the election had not been conducted
according to international best practices. They
wished him the best of luck in his future
endeavours.
Formally welcoming the President-Elect and his
vice to the nation’s seat of power, the natives
urged General Buhari not to let Nigerians down
considering the massive votes given to him by
citizens from all parts of Nigeria including the
natives of the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.

FCT Minister, Senator Bala Muhammed has
congratulated the Senator-Elect and the two
Members-Elect of the House of Representatives,
Hon. Philip Tanimu Aduda, Mr. Zephaniah Bitrus
Jisalo and Hon. Isa Ega Dobi over their victory in
last Saturday’s Senatorial and House of
Representatives election in the Federal Capital
Territory.
Greeting them on behalf of his family, the FCT
Administration and the entire residents of FCT,
Senator Muhammed described their victories as
‘well deserved’ and expressed delight that his
party, the Peoples Democratic Party posted 100
percent performance in the federal legislative
election.
In the polls, while Aduda, a serving member of
the House of Representatives representing
AMAC/Bwari Federal Constituency was elected
to represent FCT in the Senate, Hon. Dobi
another serving member of the House was re-
elected to represent the Abaji/Gwagwalada/Kuje/
Kwali Federal Constituency in the Federal House.
On his part, Mr. Jisalo, the immediate past
Chairman of Abuja Municipal Area Council
(AMAC) was elected to represent AMAC/Bwari
constituency in the House of Representatives.
Said the FCT Minister in his separate
congratulatory messages to the trio: “Your
victory is no doubt a product of your
commitment, diligence, hard work and dedication
to the service of the people. It is yet another
vote of confidence by the people in you in view
of your rich antecedents as leaders and
exemplary public servants.”
The Minister wished them the best in their noble
endeavours as Senator and Honourable Members
of the House of Representatives of the Federal
Republic of Nigeria and called on them to
demonstrate the positive attributes of a
magnanimous winner by extending a hand of
fellowship to all their constituents including
those they defeated in the elections and their
supporters. He reminded them that in every
political contest, there must be a winner and a
loser and that the noble virtue is how to be a
generous winner.
Senator Bala Muhammed assured them of the
full support and cooperation of the FCT
Administration as they continue their quality
representation of the good people of FCT in their
respective capacities at the National Assembly.
He stated that the Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP) in the FCT and the nation at large
remained very proud of them, especially against
the background of their sterling performance in
the recent election.
He further charged them not to rest on their oars
but to return to the field with all their associates,
supporters and machineries to work towards a
resounding victory of the PDP in next Saturday’s
presidential election in the FCT and the entire
country.
Christianity EtcPRAYER FOR NIGERIA By Reinhard Bonnke by Sunjos(op): 6:36pm On Mar 26, 2015
Heavenly Father, I come to you in the name of
Jesus and pray for the well-being of the great
nation of Nigeria. You are God and no human
occasion is insignificant to you. You come in at
every crisis point. I pray for tolerance and peace
in the upcoming election and that your will be
done. I also pray that the howling winds of death
and destruction through Boko Haram will die
down. You said in the Book of Exodus “when I
see the blood, I will pass over you.” Each one of
Your children is beyond the reach of the powers
of hell, witches, and spells, curses, demons and
war. The principalities and powers in heavenly
places cannot touch Your people while we rest
beneath the banner of the precious blood of
Jesus our Savior, our Passover Lamb. Your
protection surrounding us is impenetrable and
invulnerable. Let Your wonderful face shine love,
peace and prosperity upon Nigeria and all its
wonderful people, especially the Family of God.
In Jesus’ Name I pray. AMEN.
PoliticsNigerian Newspapers: 10 Things You Need To Know This Monday Morning by Sunjos(op): 8:40am On Mar 23, 2015
1. The Deputy Governor of Rivers state, Tele
Ikuru, on Sunday dumped the All Progressives
Congress, APC, describing the party as “a party
of rebels”.
2. Nigerian Flying Eagles, Sunday defeated host
Senegal to win the Africa under 20
championship. The only goal that soared the
Nigerian side to victory was scored by Bernard
Bulbwa in the first half of the game. Nigeria has
now won the tournament for a record of seven
times.
3. Rivers State Governor and Director-General of
the All Progressives Congress Presidential
Campaign, Mr. Rotimi Amaechi, has alleged that
the governorship candidate of the Peoples
Democratic Party in the state, Chief Nyesom
Wike, was giving $1m (N199m) monthly to the
wife of the President, Mrs. Patience Jonathan in
order to gain the support of the First Lady and
her husband. Amaechi raised the allegation on
Saturday at a praise and worship session
organised by the Ikwerre Youth Movement and
Ikwerre Women Forum at Isiokpo, Ikwere’s
headquarters.
4. Former Governor of Akwa Ibom State, Obong
Victor Attah has described the Senatorial
ambition of the current Governor of the State,
Godswill Akpabio, as hypocritical and deceitful.
He also accused the State Governor of trying to
impose his candidate on Akwa Ibom people. He
openly declared his support for the APC, even
though he claimed he remained a member of the
PDP.
5. Report says Nigerian universities lecturers may
soon embark on a nationwide strike following a
recent circular by the National Universities
Commission which they said would obliterate
their agreement with the government. The Senior
Staff Association of Nigerian Universities has
consequently given the Federal Government till
Wednesday April 28, 2015, to address the issue
or it will shut down the nation’s universities.
6. President Goodluck Jonathan had in his
closing remarks during the presidential debate
organized by the Nigerian Elections Debate
Group, said that the re-scheduled dates for the
coming elections were sacrosanct, hence will not
be shifted again.
7. The Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Muhammad Sa’ad
Abubakar III, has advised that security agencies
in the country should provide adequate
protection fo National Youth Service Corps
members that would be deployed to assist
officials of the Independent National Electoral
Commission to conduct the general elections.
The Sultan was speaking when the NYSC
Director-General, Brig-Gen. Johnson Olawumi
visited his Palace.
8. The Peoples Democratic Party Presidential
Campaign Organisation has avowed that it was
against the Inspector-General of Police, Mr.
Suleiman Abba’s order where he asked the
electorates not to stay back at the polling units
after casting their votes. The campaign group
said party supporters should stay back to monitor
their votes.
9. Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, has said
that opinion polls won’t save the All Progressives
Congress from losing the March 28 and April 11
election. He said listing Ekiti state as one of the
states to be won by the APC was an extreme
deceit. He asked Nigerians to ignore what he
termed “orchestrated opinion polls.”
Amaechi’s Deputy defects to PDP, says “APC
is a party of rebels, founded on falsehood”
10. The APC has said that its decision not to
participate in the Sunday’s presidential debate
has been justified considering that President
Jonathan was reading from a script, an indication
that he was given the questions ahead of the
debate.
NYSCSultan Seeks Safety Of Corps Members by Sunjos(op): 8:29am On Mar 23, 2015
The Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Muhammad Sa’ad
Abubakar III, has asked security agencies in the
country to provide adequate protection for
members of the National Youth Service Corps
deployed to assist officials of the Independent
National Electoral Commission to conduct the
general elections.
Abubakar gave the charge when the NYSC

paid a pre-election advocacy visit to his palace.
This was contained in a statement by the NYSC
on Sunday.
The sultan was quoted as saying, “I call on
politicians to ensure the safety of the corps
members. On my part, I have directed district
heads in the state to take charge of the safety
of corps members serving in their domains, and
want same move to be replicated in other parts
of the country.
“I also urge corps members not to be deterred
by past violence, but to consider their service in
the conduct of elections as a national duty to be
proud of.”
Abubakar further urged them to go into the
electoral assignment with high sense of
patriotism and to avoid identifying with any
political party.
The NYSC DG, Olawumi, appealed to the
monarch to help in sensitising members of the
public, especially politicians, to ensure the safety
of the corps members before, during and after
the elections.
The DG also urged Nigerians to report
misconduct by any corps members to the NYSC
management, rather than take the laws into their
hands.
