Tons of Nigerian soldiers killed by Boko Haram, thanks to the uselessness of their military setup and leaders. You can see one Boko Haram member top left of the picture. Around 160 soldiers also MIA after the Adamawa 6 hour battle. Government denies everything. What a pathetic nation.

Anyway, it's pretty interesting that Boko Haram treats these bodies with a degree of respect. They are laid down in white sheets. Boko Haram bodies are tossed around in the dirt. undecided

South Africa Knocks Nigeria off its Perch as
“Most Corrupt” African Country
South Africa is now believed to be the most
corrupt country on the continent, according
to a new survey.
By Alexis Haden
The latest report by Transparency
International sees South Africa top the list
of countries where citizens believe the
problem has got worse in the last year.
Over 80% of South Africans who were
interviewed thought that corruption had
increased over the last year. Ghana and
Nigeria are some of the other worst-
affected nations.
79% of South Africans surveyed also believe
that not enough is being done to curb
corruption. On the continent‚ the majority of
Africans (58%) say that corruption has
increased over the past year.
If there is one shining light to the survey
it’s that 56% of South Africans surveyed
believe that ordinary people can make a
difference in the fight against corruption.
The survey found that 25% of respondents
in SA believe that the most effective way for
ordinary citizens to combat corruption is by
reporting their experiences‚ followed by a
further 22% who identified the refusal to pay
bribes as an effective means to fight
corruption.
With 43‚143 respondents, across 28
countries surveyed, people feel the police,
business executives, government officials
and the courts were all perceived as
corrupt, with 75 million people estimated to
have paid a bribe in the past year, AFP
reports.
Between JZ pouring money into his Nkandla
digs, Prasa’s dodgy trainsand countless of
other scandals, South Africans aren’t
exactly stoked about the state of affairs.
“People are outraged, they see this huge
spending as part of government corruption,”
David Lewis, director of Corruption Watch, a
local anti-graft organisation, told AFP.
“Corruption creates and increases poverty
and exclusion,” Transparency International
head Jose Ugaz said in a statement. source: www.thesouthafrican.com/south-africa-knocks-

RUSSIAN FAN SENDS UNITED FLAG INTO SPACE “We’ll keep the red flag flying high” is a chant often heard at Old Trafford, but it’s fair to assume nobody has shown their colours on higher ground than Alexey Yakovlev. Amazingly, with a little help from NASA astronaut Steve Swanson, the 36-year-old United fan from Moscow, Russia, sent his own MUFC flag into space for 169 days in 2014, when it orbited the earth 2,704 times. As Alexey told ManUtd.com ahead of Wednesday's match with CSKA Moscow, his is an interesting tale. “I have been supporting Manchester United for 15 years now, since the year 2000,” Alexey explained. “It started in Kosovo, of all places, where I used to be a peacekeeper and where I found a lot of English friends who were also big Reds. They convinced me to become a fan as well! “But the idea about sending a flag to space only came to me when I ordered it from a friend in England. I realised I could do it because I’ve been working as a translator at the Gagarin Cosmonaut Training Center in Russia. That’s how I made friends with Steve, who I do a lot of translating for. “Steve is American and is not a United fan but he quickly agreed to take my flag up to the International Space Station for me because he had some extra space in his own luggage. They are allowed to take 1.5kg up there and the flag only weighs 85 grams, so it was an easy fit. “I am very proud of what I did and I am proud of the photo because United means a lot to me. We’ve waved our flag up in space and I doubt very much that anybody can take it higher than that!”

PoliticsFg Begin Rivival Of National Carier by Zaha(op): 10:16am On Oct 03, 2015
THERE are indications that the establishment of a new national carrier may become a reality soon with the submission of the report by a Federal Government committee with the mandate to work out modalities to restore the national airline.National CarrierSubmitting its report at the Ministry of Aviation, Chairman of the committee, Capt. Abdulsalami Mohammed, said that the committee had wide consultations and received a number of memoranda in the course of its sittings.According to him, “the creation of the committee on the establishment of a national carrier has generated a lot of excitement and comments both in the print and electronic media as well as in social media networks since its inauguration.“It was therefore not surprising that we received a lot of memoranda from interested stakeholders within and outside the country.“We consulted with a total of 74 stakeholders, ranging from airline operators to aviation agencies, service providers, financial consultants, institutional investors, aircrafts and parts suppliers and former staff of Nigeria Airways Limited.”Mohammed noted that the committee has given what he described as far reaching recommendations, which if accepted and implemented by the Federal Government will have positive impact on the aviation industry in Nigeria.Receiving the report, the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Aviation, Mrs. Binta Bello, explained that the inauguration of the committee was based on a directive by President Muhammadu Buhari, to advise government on appropriate modalities for the establishment of a national carrier.She declined to give a timeline within which the proposal will be implemented arguing that,“the report has just been submitted to me and I have not even opened it.“Until I open the report and see the recommendations, I cannot say exactly what we are going to come up with.”The committee was inaugurated in Abuja on August 25 and given four weeks to complete its assignment.The Federal Government had made several failed attempts in the past at floating a national carrier after the demise of the Nigeria Airways which was established earlier in 1971 following a buy-out of the equities of Elder-Dempster and British Overseas Airways Corporation (BOAC).Reports indicate that for over 40 years, the airline served as link to various destinations not only in Nigeria but also across West and Central Africa and also operated intercontinental flights to Europe, USA, Middle East and Asia.According to an Aviation Consultant, Chris Aligbe, Federal Government’s Structural Adjustment Policy of Former President Ibrahim Babangida in the in the 1980s dealt the Nigeria Airways a devastating blow which may have eventually led to its grounding.According to Aligbe, “the Structural Adjustment Programme came with a huge devaluation of the Naira and stoppage of annual subvention to Nigeria Airways.“This twin policy action quadrupled Nigeria Airways problems as it multiplied the airline’s debt in terms of the quantum of it required to meet its foreign debt obligations which at the IATA Clearing House stood at US$42 million, among others.”http://www.vanguardngr.com/2015/10/fg-begins-revival-of-national-carrier/

With half an hour still to play, United rang the changes but should have added a fifth when Clayton Blackmore pounced on a slip by Westerveld but arrowed his shot narrowly wide of an open goal from distance. As the game became increasingly fractious, Ian Rush came on to add more potency to Liverpool's attack and they clawed one back when Garcia's volley picked out Thompson racing in at the far post to slam into the net. Both sides managed to keep their cool despite some tired legs and late tackles as the match lived up to expectations and it will have raised vital funds for both clubs' Foundations. United: Van der Gouw (Pilkington 69); Martin, Johnsen, Robson (Beardsmore 69), Irwin (Thomas 82); Gillespie, Poborsky, Fortune, Djordjic (Yorke 84), Blomqvist (Thornley 61); Yorke (Blackmore 61, Blomqvist 76). Liverpool: Dudek (Westerveld 46); Kvarme (McAteer 87), Henchoz (Diao 46), Babb; McAteer (Partridge 65), Garcia, Hamann, Berger, Harkness (Thompson 46); Smicer (Rush 70), Fowler.

United Legends 4 Liverpool Legends 2 Manchester United's Legends overcame their Liverpool rivals 4-2 in Stockholm despite falling behind to a Vladimir Smicer goal. Karel Poborsky, Dwight Yorke, Bojan Djordjic and Jesper Blomqvist hit back to hand Bryan Robson's team a resounding lead with David Thompson replying late on. An open game from the outset thrilled the crowd at the Friends Arena with Patrik Berger twice close to drawing first blood with long-range strikes. The Merseysiders did break through when, after Yorke spurned an opening, a punch by Raimond van der Gouw was returned with interest by Smicer, who nodded into an empty net. It took United only four minutes to respond, with Poborsky accepting a return pass by Keith Gillespie and dinking over Jerzy Dudek from an angle for an exquisite goal. The woodwork denied Robbie Fowler following a delightful through ball by Luis Garcia before Yorke fired United ahead, capping a neat move involving Djordjic's pass and Lee Martin ducking under the ball to leave it to the striker. While Jason McAteer should have been booked long before getting yellow carded for a foul on Blomqvist, Fowler felt he should have had a penalty after being up-ended by Denis Irwin just before the break. The Reds' best spell came at the start of the second half with Irwin's free-kick forcing a brilliant save out of Sander Westerveld. The keeper blotted his copybook by misdirecting a throw to Djordjic and he accepted the gift to embroider his quality performance with the goal it deserved. After van der Gouw stood firm under some pressure, Yorke had a goal harshly ruled out for offside after more sloppy defending but it mattered little when Blomqvist sprung the offside trap to race after Yorke's pass and he danced around Westerveld before fizzing the ball home.

PoliticsNigeria Artiste Who Change The Beat To Gain Popularity by Zaha(op): 9:09am On Aug 07, 2015
TIMAYA

Call him the boy from Bayelsa State, and you may
not be wrong. The former plantain seller started
out as an inspirational singer. But along the line,
he drifted and that was when he started gaining
recognition within and beyond the shores of the
country. He started releasing songs that many
termed as being “repetitive and monotonous to
gain popularity.
Timaya once confessed that he started his career
writing inspirational songs. But it didn’t get him
the much needed fame and fortune. It was when
he began singing songs without writing down
lyrics, but just basically ‘free-styling’ that the
music began to pay. Before now, he has been
criticized for songs such as ‘Ukwu,’ ‘Bum Bum,’
and ‘Malonogede.’ But he doesn’t seem to care
as he keeps smiling to the bank.
TERRY G

Another singer that changed the beat is Terry G.
His 2009 song, ‘Free Madness’ revolutionized the
Nigerian music scene in its own way. It was the
era of glorification of beats over lyrics. That song
was nothing more than a compilation of mumbo-
jumbo on a beat that was both danceable and
infectious.
Even though many criticized the meaningless
lyrics, yet it was played at every nook and
crannies of the society; hot spot, and nightclubs.
Terry G also inspired a new generation of artistes
who believed that there is no need for their
songs to have lyrical content in order to break
even in the industry.
For them, all they needed was a ‘banging’ beat
that could get music lovers to dance away their
sorrows. Meanwhile Terry G didn’t begin that
from the onset. He used to be a chorister in
church, who exhibited exceptional skills in
playing musical instruments to propagate God’s
work.
Nigerians won’t forget in a hurry how Terry G
negatively influenced the young ones with his love
for marijuana in his songs. But whether we like it
or not, his gamble paid off, as he made a lot of
money and hits from his ‘Free Madness’ even
though his brand was badly affected. The talented
singer and beat-maker confessed in a recent
interview that his past is still haunting him as he
wasn’t getting corporate endorsements like many
of his colleagues.
IYANYA

For those who followed the MTN Project Fame
West Africa season 1 in 2008, it was evident from
the onset that the eventual winner, Iyanya was
incredibly talented. But his career almost fizzled
out like a fake perfume which was exposed to the
sun. His first album after winning the competition,
‘My Story’ containing songs like ‘Love Truly,’ ‘No
Time’ amongst others was a commercial failure.
It was after the body-building Cross River-born
singer teamed up with producer, D’Tunes that
people began to pay serious attention to his
music. He shed his good boy image and stopped
promoting his sonorous voice as his selling point.
He started showing off his biceps and singing
about sex, and boom, the megabucks started
rolling in for him. Till date, he remains one of the
most successful winners of the competition.
SKALES

We all knew Skales as a rapper in the early stage
of his career. As a matter of fact, he was signed
on to Empire Mates Entertainment (EME) because
of his lyrical prowess. However, the young dude
got confused along the line, or as some would
argue, he got ‘intimidated’ by his label mate,
Wizkid who was making all the money and
getting all the girls by virtue of his vocal
dexterity.
We were all surprised when the ‘homeboy’
changed the beat and started singing something
different. However, after releasing songs like
‘Mukulu,’ ‘Shake Body,’ ‘Je kan Mo’ and ‘I am for
Real,’ Skales became more of a singer than a
rapper.
PRAIZ

Praise Ugbede Adejo popularly known as Praiz is
undeniably vocally gifted. He emerged the second
runner up in the 2008 edition of the MTN Project
Fame, but just like the winner, Iyanya, he didn’t
immediately find his footing in the music industry.
His brand of music didn’t connect well with the
the local audience, but nowadays, he has ‘diluted’
his style, and it has translated into gains for him.
His songs like ‘Oshe’ featuring Awilo, and ‘Sisi’
featuring Wizkid have been club bangers in their
own rights, but they’re definitely not the old Praiz
style that we used to know.
SEAN TIZZLE

Not many people know that Sean Tizzle started
his music career as a rapper, but the Difference
Entertainment Act once revealed that he used to
be a lyricist. In his days as a rapper, he wasn’t
known and he never caught a break. However, the
desire to be more commercially relevant must
have pushed him to hone his vocal skills, and the
rest as they say is history. His songs like ‘Sho
Le,’ Mama Eh’ and ‘Kilogbe,’ have all topped the
charts at different times.
SAINT JANET

Call her the Queen of Nigerian lewd singers, and
you’d be correct. Saint Janet shocked the
sensibilities of many Nigerians with the release of
her live performance CD which contained many
obscene lyrics and sexually explicit content in
2009.
It was so bad that the Lagos State government
had to ban it from playing in public places, but
Saint Janet argued that the move by government
even made her more popular, as the same
officials that banned her song in public, also
invited her to perform at their private functions.
However, Saint Janet has her roots in the church
as she used to be a chorister, but she didn’t
attract public attention and commercial success
until she went wild. And now that she has tasted
fame and fortune, albeit in a controversial way,
Saint Janet doesn’t seem to be in a hurry to
change her style of music anytime soon. In a
recent interview, she asserted that even her
husband can no longer stop her from singing lewd
songs as it is her claim to fame.

PoliticsPics Of The Unmanned Bomb Disposal Of NAF by Zaha(op): 7:27am On Jul 29, 2015
The Nigerian Air force has unveiled unmanned bomb detector and a Light Surveillance Aircraft developed by the Nigerian Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT), Kaduna, north-west Nigeria.
The development is part of the force’s contribution to the fight against insurgency in the troubled north-eastern region.
Commandant of the AFIT, Air Vice Marshal Toni Adokwe, introduced the device at a gathering ahead of the institute’s 44th Convocation Ceremony coming up on Friday.
The Commandant demonstrated how the device could dictate and pick up Impoverished Explosive Device to safer locations for disposal.
The device has a frequency jammer to distort GSM signals and also has a time run of four hours.
He said it was produced by students of the Armament Engineering Department in 2012 and was later modified to a higher level called Unmanned Ground Vehicle type two.
Adokwe affirmed that with effective innovative approach to technology, Nigeria would be able to tackle the current security challenge in the North-east.
He emphasised that the growing wave of bombings by the Boko Haram sect required more researches and innovations of modern equipment and technologies to tackle the challenge.
The Commandant further explained that the institute had equally commenced research into the development of a Light Surveillance Aircraft that would be in conformity with the climatic temperature of Nigeria and the West African sub-region.
Since inception, the AFIT has graduated about 5,000 persons, including personnel of the Nigerian Army, Air force, Navy and civilians, as well as foreign students from the Armed Forces of the Republic of Benin, Zimbabwe, Niger, Ghana and Sierra Leone.
It is structured into three schools which are the School of Air Engineering, School of Ground Engineering and Management Studies, as well as the School of Postgraduate Studies, which coordinates the various postgraduate programmes in the other schools. http://www.channelstv.com/2015/07/28/air-force-modifies-unmanned-bomb-detector/unmanned-bomb-detector/
