Does Kim have even a concept of the reality of marriage? Did it just dawn on her that she might have to sacrifice her selfish conception of life to consider her husband's needs for her to support his career dictates as a professional athlete? And, at what point might her husband have told mom it’s time to butt out and quit living through and off her immoral children!!

I thought a muslim had to be buried within 24 hours of death? Why is Gaddafi left in a cold storage.

Methinks, it doesn't make good media coverage for the NTC led government.

Gaddafi was only a Muslim when it suited him. Like all other dictators, "religion" only comes into play when it is to their benefit.

Is this pics for real? 

They have really humiliated this man.

Once labeled public enemy number one, the good times are over. Gaddafi would have saved himself a lot of energy by putting a bullet to his brain once he was tagged. Next will be Assad unless he resigns immediately.

LOL - lesson? So when your significant other buys you a new iPhone, check to see see if "Find My Friends" is on running on it

Honestly, I believe their marriage was over anyway. . . he already didn't trust her. . . and he only got her the phone to catch her in the act. . . GOOD JOB APPLE!!! now stalkers can find me anytime they want smh

I rebuke it. God will not punish those that are not evil. Intsead he will punish you and every one of your offspring for your evil intentions.

As far as I'm concerned the Repuclic Of Biafra thing was a fantasy dreamed up by self serving Igbo who cared only about themselves. If you Igbo want to create your own fantasy country then please pack all your bags, collect your yahoo interent cafe scammer boys, collect all your get rich quick schemers, collect all your useless women, collect all your gun toting kidnappers and go to another part of the world to make your country. Because it will NEVER happen on Nigerian soil. I would feel nothing if you people left Nigeria. NOTHING. It would finally rid us of the core amount of scammers & kidnappers. Please go & do Nigeria a favor.

Who is this pseudo moralistic Nincompoop?

By MOSHOOD ADEBAYO, Abeokuta

Thursday, October 13, 2011
• N4.3bn LG funds converted to personal use
• $4m state funds used to buy personal shares

• Judges quarters converted to Asoludero Court

• Pleads not guilty, remanded in EFCC custody till tomorrow

The arraignment of the immediate past governor of Ogun State, Otunba Gbenga Daniel, yesterday by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), over alleged mismanagement of N58 billion has revealed how the former governor allegedly fleeced the state.


Daniel who was arrested last Thursday alongside the former governors of Oyo and Nasarawa states, Otunba Adebayo Alao-Akala, and Aliyu Akwe-Doma by the anti-graft agency was arraigned in an Ogun State High Court, Isabo- Abeokuta, on a 16-count charge of stealing, fraud, illegal deduction of local government funds and failure to declare assets.

The former governor was brought to the court premises at about 9.10 a.m. in a white Toyota Hiace bus with registration number Abuja BR 737 BWR in company with his wife and close family members.

Before the charges were read, the presiding Judge, Mabekoje granted the request of the leading counsel to the accused, Professor Taiwo Osipitan (SAN) who asked for stand down for 30 minutes to enable him to study the charges and discuss with his client.

When the court resumed, counsel to the EFCC, Mr. Rotimi Jacobs, told the court that the agency had filed a 304-page information. This prompted the lead counsel to the accused, Professor Osipitan to ask the court for a stand down for the defence team to study the information in compliance with Section 36 sub-section 6 of the 1999 constitution as amended.

Justice Mabekoje after listening to Osipitan’s plea granted a 30-minute stand down in favour of the defence team.

This property he was said to have acquired in the name of Blue Chapel Limited, a company where he was said to have interest but not authorised by the trust. On the fifth count charge, the former governor was said to have with intent, defrauded and converted the Judges’ Quarters at Ijebu-Ode to the use of Conference Hotels Limited, a company it was said that he, (Daniel) had interest but not authorized by the trust.

The ninth count charge read that Daniel, sometimes in July 2009, fraudulently converted a sum of N1, 061,155,624.55 property of Ogun State local government councils which deduction he allegedly made form their November 2009 Statutory Allocation.

On count 13, the former governor was accused of not declaring his interest in Glanvil Enthoven and Company (Nigeria) Limited, a company in which he was alleged to have acquired interest while he was governor. Particulars of count 14 stated that Daniel made a declaration that was false by not declaring his interest in 21st Century Technology Limited, a company in which he was said to have acquired interest while he governed the state between 2003 and 2011. Count-15 also charged the ex-governor to have on 11th October, 2011, within the jurisdiction of the honourable court, knowingly made a declaration that was false by not declaring his interest in Conference Hotels Limited, a company where he allegedly acquired interest while he was governor.

Particulars of the count 16 said that Daniel on 11th October, 2011 within the jurisdiction of the honourable court knowingly made a declaration that was false by not declaring his interest in Golf Place Resort Hotel Limited, a company in which he was alleged to have interest while in office. While the court proceeding lasted, supporters of the ex-governor who had stormed the court premises and another group believed to be opposed to him, chanted both pro and anti-Daniel slogans. It took the swift intervention of the Police and other security operatives to prevent a breakdown of law and order as the two groups made inciting statements.

Despite the heavy presence of security, rowdiness almost marred the court session as the counsel strained their ears to listen to the proceedings. The situation forced one of the counsels to the accused, Mr. Tayo Oyetibo to observe at the end of the proceedings that there was need for security within and outside the court to be beefed up.

The presiding Judge who granted the request of the EFCC for adjournment till tomorrow for the hearing of Daniel’s bail application, also ordered that the ex-governor be remanded in the EFCC’s custody. Although the EFCC said it did not object to Daniel being remanded in its custody, its lead counsel, Jacobs reacted to a media report that the ex-governor was being subjected to inhuman conditions.

TRIPOLI (Reuters) - Muammar Gaddafi's son Mo'tassim was captured in Sirte on Wednesday while trying to escape the town, the head of the Tripoli Revolutionary Council said.

"He was arrested today in Sirte," Colonel Abdullah Naker told Reuters.

He was taken to Benghazi where he was questioned, other ruling National Transitional Council (NTC) sources based in Sirte and Benghazi said. They said he had been caught as he tried to leave Sirte in a car with a family.

NTC sources had earlier told Reuters that Mo'tassim, formerly Libya's national security adviser, had been captured on Tuesday.

Celebratory bursts of machinegun fire and fireworks lit up the skies over the capital Tripoli as reports of Mo'tassim's capture circulated.

Military sources said he was being held in the Boatneh military camp in Benghazi and that he was "exhausted" but uninjured.

Another senior NTC military official told Reuters that Gaddafi's son had cropped short his usually longer hair in an attempt to disguise himself. He is so far the only member of Gaddafi's immediate family to be captured by the NTC forces who have led the successful rebellion.

Muammar Gaddafi, Libya's ousted leader of 42 years, and his most politically prominent son, Saif al-Islam, have been on the run since the fall of Tripoli on August 23.

Gaddafi's daughter Aisha, her brothers Hannibal and Mohammed, their mother Safi and several other family members fled to Algeria in August and have been there since.

Another son, Saadi, is in Niger.

Most of Sirte, Gaddafi's hometown, has been captured by fighters loyal to the NTC in recent days after weeks of siege.

Interim government officials had said they believed Mo'tassim was hiding in the city's hospital.

New take on a Christmas carol - "al-Qaida nuts roasting in an underwear bomb. Matrydom smoking on his hose" (go ahead and add your lines) Bottom-line = Pants-0n-fire . . . pants-on-fire . . . looking like a fool with his pants-on-fire ! !

My thought is this. . .why didn't the bomb squad initially. . .take this piece of trash to a remote runway and deactivate his underwear with him in them?

(CBS/AP) DETROIT - A young Nigerian on a terrorist mission for al Qaeda prayed, washed and put on perfume moments before trying to detonate a bomb in his underwear to bring down an international jetliner on Christmas 2009, a prosecutor told jurors as the man's trial opened Tuesday.

Virtually everyone aboard Northwest Airlines Flight 253 had holiday plans, but Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab believed his calling was martyrdom, Assistant U.S. Attorney Jonathan Tukel said.

In the plane's bathroom, "he was engaging in rituals. He was preparing to die and enter heaven," Tukel said. "He purified himself. He washed. He brushed his teeth. He put on perfume. He was praying and perfuming himself to get ready to die."

After returning to his seat, Abdulmutallab pushed a syringe plunger into the chemical bomb in his underwear, an action that produced a "pop," the prosecutor told jurors.

The bomb didn't work as planned but Abdulmutallab was engulfed in flames, said Tukel, who displayed the flight's seating chart on a screen to show jurors where things happened on the plane.



The day's first and only witness, passenger Mike Zantow of Madison, Wis., said Abdulmutallab went to the bathroom for 10 to 15 minutes, then returned and put a blanket over himself. He heard the "pop" and said another passenger remarked, "Hey, dude, your pants are on fire."

Benito new status is: JAILED! Lol.

Facebook is nothing but pure trouble on Earth. Too bad it has become an integral part of mass culture. It is not without precedent though, the British got the entire population of China hooked on opium in past.

Aringarosa:
There are a lot of crazies out there. This guy sounds like my brother. He got angry and threw my luggage off his second story balcony at 2 a.m. (I was visiting him in LA) when he told me his girlfriend asked about me and then he asked me do I think about his girlfriend and I said -- "no, she is your girlfriend, why would I be thinking about her?"

What's most bizarre is I got him the apartment and paid his rent for 4 months (he had no job or money at the time). His girlfriend (a women close to our Mom's age) couldn't let him stay at her house because she lived there with her husband.

I hope you're making all this up. I'm laughin so hard.
