FamilyMy Husband Used Love Portion To Marry Me by White007(op): 1:13pm On Sep 25, 2012
By Adeola Adenuga

A 36-year-old hairdresser, Adeola Fabiyi, told an Abeokuta customary court sitting in Ake, that her husband, Alfa Kasumu, used charm to marry her.

According to her, she couldn't explain how she moved into his house and became his wife.

Meanwhile, Kasumu, a muslim cleric, denied the allegation and said she is wayward. Adeola informed the court that it just dawned on her that her husband cast love spell on her when they met about 12 years ago through a friend who took her to his house when her hairdressing business was not booming.

The applicant added that Kasumu helped her by doing a charm that made the business flourish and customers started trooping into her shop.

" I remember vividly that a man was dating me and l was two months pregnant then, but as soon as l moved into Kasumu's house, the pregnancy disappeared". She claimed that after she lost the pregnancy, she could not conceive again, saying her husband married three other women shortly after she moved out of his house.

When asked how she realised that her husband used charm on her, Adeola responded that a close friend of Kasumu who was privy to the deed confessed to her.

The applicant therefore urged the court to dissolve the marriage and beg kasumu on her behalf to release her from bondage, so that she can bear children.

The respondent denied the allegation and told the court that Adeola is wayward and that's what is responsible for her inability to conceive.

He added that it was true that he had many wives, but he did not use charm to marry them. Meanwhile, the case was adjourned for further hearing.

PoliticsIran Adds To Reward For Rushdie's Death by White007(op): 8:47pm On Sep 16, 2012
TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — Iranian newspapers are reporting that a religious foundation has increased a reward for killing British author Salman Rushdie to $3.3 million from $2.8 million in response to alleged insults to the Prophet Muhammad.
The Sunday reports in the hardline Jomhoori Eslami daily and other newspapers appeared to be a reference to an anti-Islam film that sparked a series of protests across the Muslim world.

The report said that the 15 Khordad Foundation will pay the prize to whoever acts on the 1989 death fatwa issued by Iran's late leader Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini against the author of the novel "The Satanic Verses," calling his book blasphemous.
The reward started at one million U.S. dollars and is occasionally increased.

For crying out loud, Ethiopia was never colonize.

Ignorance is bliss really!

Some of we Nigerians like denigrating other people/country's achievements. At least before saying things you probably don't know, why not google it out to know before you type nonsense on a public forum.

Like some one aptly said, "we are being deceived by all that Nigeria is the Giant of Africa rhetoric"

FYI, Ethiopia has become the second country after Japan to take delivery of the Boeing 787 Dreamliner. Ethiopian Airlines has bought 10 of Boeing's flagship aircraft, Ethiopian Airlines is one of Africa's biggest airlines. The state-owned company serves 69 international destinations.


Blighted by drought and famine, ongoing border conflicts and claims of political oppression, that is the side of Ethiopia we hear most about.

However, you might be surprised to know it is one of the world's fastest growing economies.

Little wonder that it is fast attracting the attention of foreign investors, long nervous about putting their money in Africa.

High annual growth since 2004 was sustained in 2011, though predicted to be at a slower rate in 2012 and 2013. Ethiopia will still be among the fastest growing non-oil producing economies in Africa.

HealthRe: Just Confirmed I Am HIV Positive by White007(m): 1:43pm On Sep 13, 2012
paris10: Hello doctor, whilst I appreciate your contributions to this post, I also offer my support to the @poster. I'd however love to draw everyone attention to this fact but very controversial theory.

I am not a conspiracy theorist but would certainly be labelled one at the end of this post. Most deadly diseases are created with the view to making profits on it cure (antidote). Now to the facts, the United states medical research institute and the Federal government science programmes are institutes created for experimentation with the view to achieving clear goals- getting rid of third world nations; using them as experiments and in-turn making profits from the monsters created.

HIV already has a cure. HIV wasn't first cited in Africa but in the US. It was experimented on a volunteering individual who later flew to Africa to infect people with it. This individual flew back to the US and had his HIV cured by the antidote produced within the institute. You want proof, my next post!

Other killer diseases were also transported to Africa, and now our govts are using billions of dollars to buy the cure from those that invented them in the first place. This is called marketing-strategy. We've been for far too long defrauded and believed to have this disease that is "incurable".

This is the new world order. Powers that controls the world. Powers that want to get rid of the "undesirables", we the Africans from the face of the earth. But for this to be accomplished, they have to sacrifice their own.

HIV antidote would be on the market in the next few years, and then a new deadly disease would be invented.

Now to the "we have to pray" thing, don't even bother. It either God cures you or you wait until the cure comes to the shelve.

And to the fraudsters who thinks we're all gullible Nigerians, we know them by names. Ayefele is still cripple!

CelebritiesShan George 'I Am Not Dating Mikel Obi' by White007(op): 9:18pm On Sep 09, 2012
Shan George knows she is cannon for controversies and is unapologetic about it. Recently, she was quoted to have said that most married Nollywood actresses are not faithful to their husbands, that they keep numerous lovers. that allegation was said to have rankled a number of her colleagues who felt scandalized by such revelations.

The mother of two boys said that offensive article misrepresented her statement and was motivated by the writer's desire to cause unnecessary friction between her and her colleagues in the industry.

"That was such a low blow. Why should it be my problem to know - not to talk about other people's marriages and what they are doing or not doing? It is not my nature to make such judgment calls and most of my colleagues knew the writer of that piece was motivated by hate and not by the desire to help build the industry and the bond of friendship that exist in Nollywood.


If you had attended my premier, you would have seen that almost everyone who is somebody in the industry showed up. Would they have done so, if they thought I was a loose cannon or that I take delight in disparaging other people? No, they would never have done so! I forgive the guy who wrote that offensive piece."

Shan also used the opportunity to condemn in a strong term the recent news that circulated online that she was photograph nude. "I am really disappointed by the level of ignorance of some people in today's world. I mean who low can they get.

I went out with some friends of mine to mark my birthday and we were all dressed in swim suit-bikinis. There was no indecent exposure - we were just having fun. The pictures are all on the net. Yet someone after seeing the pictures - went and wrote that I was photographed nude.

Can you imagine that? I can't imagine if the writer cannot recognize someone wearing a swimming trunk and a naked picture. It is very annoying. I have morals and I would never pose nude - not for a million dollars. You know what I have come to see that in this industry: there are some people who are haters and instead of applauding your efforts, would rather take delight in painting you in colors that do not represent who you are. But I am glad that the majority of my fans worldwide know who I am."

Recently too, a picture of Shan was posted on line where she was seen seemingly cavorting with the top Chelsea soccer star, Mikel Obi, leading to the speculation that she and Mikel wee dating. When asked, Shan was incredulous "This is really getting crazy. So I can't even have a drink with someone - just innocently, without being linked romantically with the person?

Mikel Obi is at a talented soccer player whose skills I appreciate. I am his big fan and when they won the Champions Cup last May, I was over the moon with excitement for him and his team mates. We met and had a drink in Lagos recently and that was that! Nothing romantic happened between us. I am not dating Mikel Obi and I hope some of these traffickers of lies can go have themselves some life."

PoliticsRe: AIDS Was Created At Fort Mckinley In The U.S.A. (see Video) by White007(op): 8:25pm On Sep 09, 2012
Wouter Basson (nicknamed "Doctor Death"wink is a South African cardiologist born July 6, 1950. He worked for the South African secret services in the 1970s and 1980s as head of the bacteriological and chemical program.
He worked for the medical corps of the South African army and was responsible for collecting information on chemical and biological experiences of foreign countries.
Son of a policeman, doctor and scientist, he joined the South African army.
In 1981, he is still the President Pieter Botha doctor when he was appointed head of the "Project Coast" in charge of developing bacterial and chemical weapons and the staff of the South African army presented as a "defensive program ".
He recruited more than 200 scientists. It was commissioned by the Civil Cooperation Bureau (CCB-Civil Cooperation Bureau) to develop chemical weapons to put out of harm's anti-apartheid activists. The aim of her research was nevertheless find a way to stop the chemical rise of black population (sterilization of black women and development of these bacteria to make you sick people). He was so involved in several attacks and the murder of anti-apartheid activists. More than a ton of methaqualone and it was provided by the army. He concocted dozens of deadly weapons (its "dirty tricks" or sneaky games) based poison like anthrax in cigarettes or envelopes, botulinum in milk, screwdrivers and poisoned umbrellas or in paraboxon whiskey.
Project Coast1était program bacteriological and chemical weapons defense secret government of South Africa during the apartheid2. This program aimed to control the demographics of the black population of South Africa by creating bacterial poisons addressing itself to the population noire3. This program was headed by Wouter Basson (nicknamed "Doctor Death"wink 4.

History

In the documentary Dealers anthrax: towards a warfare? Wouter Basson says that Roberto Coen: "Bomb Black to infect only the black population was a great project, the most fun of his life" (sic) 5.
Games more sneaky shots or Sales were observed between 1970 and 1990, with poison found on T-shirts in food, envelopes, cigarettes, botulinum in milk, screwdrivers and poisoned umbrellas or paraboxon in whiskey.
In 1983, a poison that can kill only black is finished and declared operational, large reserves of this poison are made, they will be based on official sources all destroyed at the end of apartheid, however others assert that the government of the United States would have bought these reserves poison6 7.
Poison can only sterilize black women was also established during the Project Coast8 2.
April 22, 2002, after thirty-month trial, 46 counts, 153 witnesses and more than 40,000 documents relating to various methods of poisoning and murders, South African cardiologist Wouter Basson was acquitted by Judge Hartzenberg which grants him amnesty. The South African government appealed to the Supreme Court refused a new trial.

PoliticsAIDS Was Created At Fort Mckinley In The U.S.A. (see Video) by White007(op): 8:20pm On Sep 09, 2012
REPORT REVEALS THAT THE AIDS VIRUS HAS BEEN CREATED BY THE LABORATORY TO REDUCE THE USA WORLD POPULATION MAINLY IN AFRICA (2000 POPULATION PROGRAM OF THE UN IN 1971 FOR REDUCING THE WORLD POPULATION).

IT was inoculated into 100 MILLION VICTIMS IN AFRICA IN 1977 BY VACCINATION CAMPAIGN AGAINST MALARIA, ETC ... THE YELLOW FEVER VACCINES THAT WERE INTENTIONALLY INFECTED AIDS. THESE CAMPAIGNS genocidal VACCINATIONS HAVE BEEN MADE BY MISSIONARIES WHO'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATIONS AND ...
IT HAS ALSO BEEN inoculated OVER 2000 AMERICAN GAY IN 1978 IN A VACCINATION CAMPAIGN AGAINST HEPATITIS B IN THE CONTROL CENTER OUTBREAK (Center for Disease Control) AND THE NEW YORK BLOOD CENTER (OPERATION TROJAN HORSE ( TROJAN HORSE)).
All these revelations have proven AND MADE AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC BY THE FBI AS THAT REQUIRES THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT'S RECORDS MUST MAKE AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC AFTER 25 YEARS.

In 1974 Henry Kissinger wrote a memorandum on population control populations and natural resources and food. It states that demographics and the birth rate must be reduced to allow stability in supplier countries of the USA.
I should mention that there has been since a new CIA report in July 2001 on population growth of world population. This demonstrates that this aspect is a major concern for U.S. authorities. Disappearances and suspicious deaths of microbiologists (at least fifteen) discussed elsewhere in the Radio Nova Arté early April 2002, may be related to military research programs on the development of new virus warfare , for the mass destruction. Some epidemics like those of the flu in the United States in early 2001 that have caused many deaths, or the fatal cases of meningitis that occur sporadically in France, must be considered suspect.

The recognition of a "Special Virus Program" of the United States by Dr. Sanders and Senator Nelson is not new. Many scientists suspected a military origin for certain viruses. Dr. Horowitz had also done a remarkable summary. The campaign of Dr. Graves on the Virus Program of the United States on AIDS, and has triggered an avalanche of letters directed at members of Congress and an investigation by the General Accounting Service of the United States. $ 550 million have actually been spent to grow the virus of AIDS / HIV, in accordance with the laws on the population control adopted in secret during the Nixon administration, as determined by Boyd E. Graves against the President of the United States of America, Supreme Court of the United States, Act No. OO-9587. The act requires a "review", a "neutralization" and U.S. apology on AIDS. The $ 500 million are missing in the center of the current investigation the General Accounting Service of the United States, triggered by James A. Trafficant of Congress from Ohio, July 23, 2001. According to the Head of quality control of BGC, Michael Gryszkowiec, the investigation of this service on the "Special Virus Program", will make the findings of its report towards the end of April 2002. Although the Supreme Court of the United States denies the requests of the complainants without making any comment, June 4, 2001, Dr. Graves has announced procedures to refile a claim of apology on AIDS, on behalf of each of innocent victims infected with the AIDS virus.
Population control populations:

I am hardly surprised by this. It suffices to be in possession of some declassified report on population control and population, to understand that uncontrolled population may be a destabilizing factor for the financial but also diplomatic balance of the planet. We can in this case be questions on statements by Prime Minister Lionel Jospin in January 2000, when he spoke of Family Planning, which has also been accompanied by a television advertising campaign. This term is actually used extensively in the report Kissinger, who believes that it is a necessity for some countries to déviter too rapid growth in countries including raw material suppliers in the USA.

It is interesting to note that during a newscast early 2002, the UN had said that AIDS had claimed 22 million lives in Africa. I remembered reading somewhere that number, so I resumed my archives and find this. The coincidence of the mortality rate and number of vaccinations performed is surprising.

RomanceWhat Is It With Ladies And Prince Charming??? by White007(op): 12:14pm On Sep 09, 2012
In the 80s our mothers were married off to our fathers without them knowing or seeing each other at first; still at that, such marriages last longer. There was hardly a case of divorce then. Wot our mothers looks out for then is the abilities of their would be husband, is he a good farmer? wrestler? etc.

Coming down to the 21st century it's an entirely different ball game all together; once the guy has all the money to spend and he is PRINCE CHARMING then he is game for the ladies. This is one of the major factor while marriages and relationship of now adays don't last. Instead of the ladies to study and know the abilities of their fiancé, they are wadling around town with him singing it to who cares to listen that my guy is cute, he is caring, he spends extravagantly on me, he takes me clubbing and shopping, we do go to the movies together; To me that's madness and for all i care a deadly monster can be behind that prince charming and his money. to make matters worst most ladies don't know what their husband or fiance does for a living, wot's on their lips is this ' who cares about what he does for a living; so far the money keeps flowing in am game for him. Every Dick and Harry knows that divorce is a song we all know how to sing. Most high society and celebrity marriages are contracted, once the contract has been executed, divorce pop in it's head.

Nearly 10% of our high society weeding lives up to ten years why becos you are rich, am rich who will bow to the other? Some guys are now dancing to the tune of the ladies, they prefer wearing the latest designer just to attract the ladies; if you approach such guys for a penny, wot you wil hear is 'guy i no get shingbai' is that not stupidity of the highest order? Wot is the essence of me dressing glamorous when my pocket is as dry as a desert? A worthy guy is hardworking, smart, clean, observant, respect his woman and always dress simple.

All the Blings, Efizy and Paparrazi are mere attractions, if u fall for him because of his money, then prepare your pussy to pay the price, because hardly will u see a guy that is spending on a lady and won't demand sex. If a guy is spending on you and he is not demanding sex from you then he is obviously screwing someone else because Body no be firewood. so ladies take note...

PoliticsWhy Do So Many African Leaders Die In Office? by White007(op): 7:43pm On Aug 27, 2012
It's rare for the leader of a country to die in office. Since 2008, it's happened 13 times worldwide - but 10 of those leaders have been African. Why is it so much more common in this one continent?

Large crowds carrying candles ran alongside the hearse carrying the body of Meles Zenawi, as it made its way through Addis Ababa, on Tuesday. He had died, aged 57, after a long illness.

Earlier in the month, tens of thousands of Ghanaians attended the funeral of their late President, John Atta Mills, who had died suddenly at the age of 68.

Four months earlier, a national holiday was declared in Malawi to allow as many people as possible to attend the funeral of the late president, Bingu wa Mutharika, who had died of a cardiac arrest, aged 78.

And in January, the president of Guinea Bissau, Malam Bacai Sanha, died in a military hospital in Paris after a long illness. He was 64.

So, four African leaders have died in office this year alone. Disruptive for the countries concerned, tragic for the leaders' families. But spare a thought also for the reporters.

"I seem to be getting an awful lot of calls in the night telling me an African president has died," says Simon Allison, a correspondent for South Africa's Daily Maverick website. "Why do African presidents keep dying?"

The question led him to take a close look at their survival rate.

"Go back just a little bit further and the list of dead sitting African presidents gets alarmingly longer," he says. Indeed, since 2008, 10 African leaders have died in office.
