Though left to me I wud choose Games of thrones.....wat abt yu?

Was she carried unconsciously thru d street ni...abi she waka go there

TWO young men have been remanded in
Agodi Prison by an Ibadan Magistrate Court for
allegedly using a magical ring to abduct and gang-
rape a 19-year-old secondary school girl in Ibadan.
The two suspects, according to a police source,
were charged with conspiracy, rape and stealing of
a Blackberry phone belonging to the victim.
The rape victim said she closed from school at
Wofun Iyana Church, and was accosted by the
suspects who insisted she should follow them to
their residence. But, when she refused, one of them
allegedly used a magical ring to hit her on the
chest and she was unconscious.
“There is a boy who was not my boy friend. He was
a student in that school about two years ago. His
name is Biola. He had wanted to date me several
times which I politely turned down. Just last
Wednesday, when I closed from school, Biola came
to me in company of two unidentified boys and said
his mum wanted to see me.
“‘I asked him what led to the invitation by his
mum. I then told him I would not go. Then, one of
the two other guys who had a ring on his hand hit
me on the chest and I was unconscious. They took
me to the residence of one of the two boys and
raped me.
“Before raping me, they gave me alcoholic drink
and after the crime had been committed, they gave
me ‘covenant water’ threatening me that I would
die if I told anybody of the act.”
A top policeman who claimed anonymity because
he was not instructed to speak, confirmed the
story, saying: “On May 15 at 0815 hours, one
Adekola living on Akanbi Street, Molade area of
Ibadan reported that his younger sister and a
secondary school student went to school and did
not return home. All efforts to trace her proved
abortive.
“Then about 23:00hours, an unanimous caller
called through the victim’s GSM number and
identified himself as kidnapper and demanded
N6,000. The DCO led other policemen and the
victim was rescued.”
She was unconscious and was rushed to a nearby
hospital. She later narrated how she was kidnapped
and gang-raped by three persons. Two arrests have
been made while the third suspect is still at large.
The two suspects have been charged to court.

Alexis Sanchez was once a hot cake before enterin barca now where is he....yu can't take d spotlite from messi..and besides Neymar style of play doesn't suit barca...he is d dribblin and stlyish player like Ronaldo and not a passer

The Brazil international's switch to Camp Nou
has been confirmed, but will he thrive
alongside the likes of Lionel Messi or is he set
up for a monumental disappointment?


After a long, long campaign
to win him round, Barcelona
have finally confirmed the
signing of Neymar .
The starlet had caught the
eye of clubs the world over with his impressive
performances for Santos and the Brazil national
team, with the battle for his signature a long, drawn-
out process.
After the Brazilian club accepted two offers on
Friday, the young forward rejected a proposal from
Real Madrid in order to move to Camp Nou and play
alongside the likes of Lionel Messi. And Iniesta

But is it the right decision? Will Neymar be able to fit
in well to Tito Vilanova's setup or, as Goal's Paul
Macdonald writes, is he set up for an almighty fall?
With the hopes of a nation on his shoulders ahead
of Brazil's hosting of the World Cup in 2014, is the
timing of the transfer right or should he have waited
for another year?
HAVE YOUR SAY
What do you think? Has Neymar made the right
choice?

A cheating boyfriend dumps you after
you got
pregnant for him.
For all the most selfish reasons best
known to
him, because he believes you will mess
up his
swag with the pregnancy, he totally
denies
you. Throws you out into the cold.
To make matters worse, he goes
aroundtelling people you had been
sleeping
around, cheating on him and now you
got
trapped with a pregnancy, you want to
push
it on him.
Your cries, your million explanations all
fell on
deaf ears - it was obvious he wasn't
going to
own up and take responsibility.
So you moved on.. had your baby
despite the
namecallings, stigma.
At some point, you had to relocate to
make a
new life for yourself 'cos the gossip
and
people pointing at you whenyou
walked by
was just too much.
But finally, you were able to get back
ontrack.
You straightened your life, got back on
point,
later fell in love with another man who
accepted your baby and you.
You were living happily ever after until
your
baby's daddy showed up!!
He wants his child, and he wants him
now!
What would you do?

Do you think that your boyfriend is crossing
the line of healthy flirting with other
women? Just because he was popular with
women before he met you, does not mean
that he has the right to carry the same
habits once he is in a relationship with you.
Here are some effective ways to deal with the
womanizing behavior of your boyfriend.
1. Identify specific instances of his
womanizing behavior
You will never be able to prove your point unless
you confront your boyfriend with proof about
specific instances of his womanizing ways. The
best way to confront him is to keep a note of all
the times you noticed his womanizing ways. When
you confront him, list out these specific examples
so that you have enough substance to accuse him
of being a womanizer.
2. Give him a warning when you confront
him
There is no point in confronting your boyfriend if
you don’t give him a stern warning for his
womanizing ways. Let it be very clear to him that
you are well aware of his behavior and you will
not tolerate with any of it. You can give him an
ultimatum and warn him that you will consider
breaking off the relationship if he does not stop
being a womanizer.
3. Flirt with someone to give him a taste of
his own medicine
If talking to your boyfriend calmly and having a
conversation with him does not work, try to make
him realize how bad you feel by flirting with
someone in front of him. Set up a situation where
you can flirt with a guy when your boyfriend is
with you. When he confronts you about your
behavior, just tell him that this is exactly how you
feel when he flirts with other women. Being at the
receiving end of the pain and hurt may open his
eyes and make him stop being a womanizer.
4. Walk away and pretend to break up if he
breaks his promise once
If you find that your boyfriend is still showing
signs of being a womanizer even after you served
him a warning, pretend that you are thinking of
breaking up with him. Do this only if he is actually
remorseful of his behavior and pleads for
another chance. Use this trump card very
carefully because it can create two situations.
Either he will do everything he can to stop being a
womanizer and prove his love for you, or he will
assume that you have seriously broken up with
him and never look back.
5. Give him one last chance and be ready to
call off the relationship
The is the time when you have no other choice
but to make a life changing decision, whether you
want to break up with your boyfriend if he does
not stop his flirty behavior. If you decide that you
have had enough, give him one final chance to
mend his ways. Be ready to call it quits in your
relationship if the results do not work in your
favor, because there is no looking back after you
give him a last chance. If you take him back even
after your ultimatum, he will take you for granted
and continue being a womanizer.

Policemen attached to Ilemba Hausa division
in Lagos State have arrested a couple and
two others who allegedly specialized in
abducting children between ages one and
four years and selling them to barren women
and motherless homes in the eastern part of
the country.
So far, about seven children reportedly stolen
from their parents' homes in Lagos and other
parts of the country have been recovered from
their new homes in Imo, Anambra and Delta
states.
One of the stolen children, Ezeaka Uchenna (4) was
picked from his parents' home, Madu Street,
Jakande Ojo, Ajagbadi area of Lagos by one of the
suspects, Adaeze Mba, on March 18, 2013 .
Adaeze who packed into same compound with the
Ezeakas in January 2013, was said to have gone to
purchase tapioca from Uchenna's mother that
fateful day, only to abscond with the child. The
couple immediately moved out of the area and
allegedly sold the child to a couple in Obosi,
Anambra State for N600,000.
However, during investigation, spokesman for the
Lagos State Police Command, Ngozi Braide, while
parading the suspects, yesterday, at the
Command's headquarters, Ikeja, said the
policemen acting on a tip-off stormed Ikot Ekpene
in Akwa Ibom State where the couple were
arrested.
"They confessed to have sold the child to one Mrs
Benedict at Asaba, Delta State. We proceeded to
Asaba where Mrs Benedict was arrested. She made
a confessional statement that she buys and sells
children to barren women and that she had sold
Uchenna to one Mrs Patricia at Obosi in Anambra
State.
"Investigation revealed that the couple had earlier
stolen Goodluck Amaechi (3) and Promise Amaechi
of same parents in Imo State and sold to Mrs
Benedict. Mrs Bendict confirmed their statements
and we proceeded to Obosi where the children
were recovered from one Church of Goodness
Motherless Babies Home."
Adaeze blames devil
Pregnant Adaeze who hails from Mbatolu Local
Government Area of Imo State blamed her
indulgence on the devil and her husband,
disclosing that they have been in the illicit act for
five years.
"Please forgive me. I was talked into it by my
husband. He asked me to get a child for him that
he would pay me N400,000. When I asked what he
wanted to do with the children, he assured me it
was not for ritual purpose that his boss, Mrs
Benedict takes them to motherless babies home.
Our Modus operandi
"Our targets are usually couples with more than
three children. What we do is to move into an
area, stay for about two to three months to get
quainted with the people and immediately we got
any child, we would leave the vicinity for another
area where we are not known. We usually rent
single room apartments without furnishing them."
Corroborating her claim, her husband, Mba, said
he ventured into the act when his sand dredging
business was no longer lucrative.
He said: "When I complained to a friend, he
introduced me to Mrs Benedict and since I met
her, my life never remained the same."
He said a male child was more expensive than
female, disclosing that Madam Benedict paid him
her as much as N600,000 for a male child and four
N400,000 for female. But for each child brought by
his wife, he said he used to make N200,000 gain.
"What we do is immediately we succeed in stealing
a child, we send him/her to my boss who in turn
sell to motherless babies home and to barren
women. I was responsible for my landlord's
missing children. I sold them for N400,000 each in
Mbatolu, Imo State."
How we arrested Benedict -Police
Vanguard gathered that Mrs Benedict was arrested
after the policemen who posed as pregnant
women called her on phone to inform her that
they had a baby boy for sale. But on arriving the
designated point in Asaba, Delta State, the suspect
who sensed trouble was said to have zoomed off
with one of the police women in her car, in a bid to
escape but was overpowered.
The suspects, according to Braide, would be
charged to court soon.
On her part, the woman whom the couple sold 4-
year-old Uchenna to begged the world to forgive
her that she opted to buy the child following her
inability to give birth to a child of her own.
" I was married for 21 years without a child to call
mine. Someone introduced me to Benedicta and
when I told her I needed a child, she requested for
N600,000 but I told her I could not afford that
amount. She later called me to meet her at the
River Niger bridge at Onitcha. On getting there he
handed over the child to me. I told her he was too
big but she said that was the only one she had.
I changed Uchenna's name to Amarachi and
enrolled him in a school where I pay N50,000 per
term", said the widow who simply gave her name
as Patricia.
On her part, 35 year-old Benedicta Ogbonna, who
is a mother of four said she was only involved in
the act to help barren women. Asked why she did
not offer her own children for sale, she kept mute.

LONDON (AFP) – One of the two alleged killers
of a British soldier on a street in south-east
London on Wednesday explained his actions on
an amateur video obtained by the television
channel ITV.
The young black man, who is wearing jeans,
sports shoes, a jacket and a black hat and
holding a bloody kitchen knife and a meat
cleaver is filmed approaching the camera.
“We swear by almighty Allah we will never stop
fighting you unless you leave us alone,” he says.
“We must fight them as they fight us. An eye for
an eye, a tooth for a tooth.
“I apologise that women have had to witness
this today, but in our land our women have to
see the same. You people will never be safe.
Remove your government, they don’t care
about you.
“You think David Cameron is going to get caught
in the street when we start busting our guns?
You think politicians are going to die? No it’s
going to be the average guy, like you, and your
children.
“So get rid of them. Tell them to bring our
troops back so can all live in peace.”
Other words are inaudible.
The British soldier was brutally murdered by
suspected Islamists near a London barracks on
Wednesday in an attack Prime Minister David
Cameron said appeared to be terror-related.
Cameron called the attack “appalling”, and said:
“There are strong indications that it is a terrorist
incident.”
Eyewitnesses described how two men attacked
a man in the street in broad daylight with knives
and a gun and then remained at the scene,
asking passers-by to photograph and film them
Armed police shot and wounded the two
attackers after being called to the incident by
bystanders.
Reports said the man attacked was wearing a t-
shirt bearing the logo of the British military
charity Help for Heroes.
One eyewitness, identified only as James, told
local radio station LBC the two assailants “were
hacking at this poor guy”.
“We thought they were trying to remove organs
or something.
“These two guys were crazy, they just were not
there, they were just animals.”
The government’s emergency response
committee, COBRA, met hours after the attack,
which took place in broad daylight near the
Royal Artillery Barracks in Woolwich, southeast
London.
Security was reinforced at all army barracks in
London following the incident.
Cameron, who returned early from talks with
French President Francois Hollande in Paris,
called the attack “truly shocking”.
Hollande said at a press conference with
Cameron that the victim was a soldier, but the
British prime minister gave no confirmation.
Cameron said: “We’ve had this sort of attack
before in our country and we never buckle in
the face of them.
“People across Britain, people in every
community, I believe, will utterly condemn this
attack.”
A local member of parliament, Nick Raynsford,
said he believed the dead man was a soldier.
Home Secretary Theresa May said: “It has been
confirmed to me that a man has been brutally
murdered this afternoon in southeast London.
“Two other men were shot by armed police and
they are currently receiving treatment for their
injuries. This is a sickening and barbaric attack.”
The Muslim Council of Britain said the killers’
use of “Islamic slogans” indicated they were
motivated by their faith.
A statement from the council said: “This is a
truly barbaric act that has no basis in Islam and
we condemn this unreservedly. Our thoughts
are with the victim and his family.”
Police were called at 2:20 pm (1320 GMT) to
reports of one man being assaulted by two
others.
“A number of weapons were reportedly being
used in the attack, and this included reports of a
firearm,” said police commander Simon
Letchford.
Local officers, then firearms police officers
arrived on the scene where they found a man
who was later pronounced dead.
“Two men, who we believe from early reports to
have been carrying weapons, were shot by
police. They were taken to separate London
hospitals, they are receiving treatment for their
injuries,” Letchford said.
He said there would be a heightened police
presence in the area and urged locals to remain
calm.
A white and blue police evidence tent was
visible in the street and police tape sealed off
the scene which was being scoured by officers in
forensic suits.
Eyewitness pictures showed an air ambulance
landing in the road and three bodies lying on
the ground with dozens of onlookers observing
the scene after the police arrived.
A Buckingham Palace spokesman said Queen
Elizabeth II — who is due to visit the barracks
later this month — was “concerned” by the
attack and was being kept updated.
In Washington, the State Department issued a
statement condemning the attack.
“We stand with our UK allies in the face of such
senseless violence. Our thoughts and
condolence are with the family of the victim and
the British people,” State Department
spokesman Patrick Ventrell said.

Popular Nigerian female comedian, Princess,
and her movie producer/director husband,
Adeshola Jeremiah, tied the knot on
Wednesday 8th May 2013 at the Balmoral
Hall, Oregun, Lagos. It was indeed a happy
day for 'Madam' Princess who had almost lost
of hope of finding a husband.
Below is their very interesting love story...
On what attracted her to Adeshola
Jeremiah
Well he is a quiet person and if not for
the fact that I am into entertainment, I also like my
privacy, I don't like unnecessary show-off. If I go
somewhere and they don't recognize me, that is
very okay by me, I just love to be myself.
How They Met
He saw me when I went for their program in
Odunfa Cancus (A Yoruba Theatre Group). I went
because of a friend of mine Latifat, who was also
trained there. She was in UNILAG and my junior in
Theatre Arts. So I went there and that was where
he saw me and that was like so many years ago in
2005.
Every time I visit my friend, because they are
always together, he will see me there, he couldn't
approach me, not because of my status but the
fact that anytime I come I will just play with
everyone for like 5 to 10 minutes and just zoom
off. And I play and smile with everyone but I don't
give that chance that I am easily approachable in
order not to draw unnecessary attention.
Things Were Different This Time…
Then in 2008, he was shooting his own movie, I
also went there to see a friend of mine, he saw me
again and went to meet that friend of mine, he
told her he wanted to meet me that he would want
me to play a role in the movie.
My friend discouraged him saying if he should
meet me, it will look like they didn't plan
themselves well. That same year, he was with that
my friend when I came to visit and he told her "I
really want to marry Princess" (laughs) and my
friend started laughing and she told him it's not
possible.
He kept on pestering her and told her why don't
you tell her first and lets hear what she says, she
(Latifat) now said I don't think I can tell her,
Princess is my very close friend and I can't tell her
that because Princess doesn't have time for men
now and she has said it's her work for now. But he
continued disturbing her to tell me, so that day we
were watching a TV program and I love cooking so
she saw a dish and said this dish is very nice how I
wish I could eat it now and I said oh you want me
to stand up and go prepare this food, so when I
went to the kitchen.
She later came into the kitchen and said she
wanted to tell me something, and I said what is it,
she said this person likes me and wants to marry
me, so I just started laughing, it was very funny,
she felt embarrassed and went back to the sitting
room, I asked her why won't I be embarrassed,
when the person told you, why didn't you just tell
him Princess won't agree and she said that's
exactly what she told the person but the person
insisted.
I told her to give the person my number, and when
he called I was just laughing, he asked "what's
funny", I said nothing, he now said "well he is
Latifat's friend" and I said yes I know that, and I
started bombarding him with questions just to
discourage him, so he won't call again.
So when his credit got finished, he called back
again. I said this one I have been asking him many
questions na wa o but its okay do I have more
questions to ask? and I said yes o and started
asking him more questions, I asked him questions
again till 11:30 PM, he ran out of credit again and
called back, and I am like where are you getting all
the money for this credit, he just said "don't worry
I will call you back", when he called back again he
asked if I had more questions and I said no
because it was already past midnight and we have
been talking since past 6.
Friend to Fiance
That was it! We later became friends and got very
close, then he said he wanted to marry me and
even told me many things about myself. I was
quite surprised and wondered how he got to know
all about me. That was how we started and things
continued but we just decided to keep everything
low key. At first I felt it was low key and if he
disappionts me, it won't hurt too much, but when
everything became too serious that was how
everything went then we started meeting our
families and I discovered that some people he
knew, were also the same people I know.
On her sudden wedding announcement
Yes we have been planning it but because my
sister was getting married on February 14th, we
just felt that hers is the reigning wedding and they
were the latest couple, so we concentrated more
on hers and also we were trying to avoid the news
reaching the press.
So I think 3 weeks or about a month to our
wedding, we had already done the introduction
and that was when we now started distributing the
invitations, because we said if we give people the
IVs earlier, news will go around. My husband
started distributing his cards a month to the
wedding but I started 2 and a half weeks to the
wedding because I just said everybody will hear.
On not wanting to publicize her Wedding
The thing is, that's the kind of person I am. I am
just there, I just believe I am like every other
Nigerian and even though my work has exposed
me and made me to be seen or perceived as a
celebrity, my partner is not a public person like
that and we just didn't want too much noise.
Even the day I sent text messages to some of my
friends, the next day I started reading so many
stories on the internet, and you can imagine that
people wrote on the internet that Princess is
getting married because she was pregnant and
now she is trying to get one guy to marry her.
It was even my husband who saw it and called my
attention to it. He was lying on the couch and just
laughing and I was like, what's funny and who are
you chatting with?, he just said there is something
they wrote on the internet and I said what, he just
said it's on Facebook, they said you are pregnant,
and I said don't mind them but I just felt bad
because people sometimes naturally find it
difficult to be happy for others.
Even now that I am married, I pray to have kids
but you can't start spreading rumours that
somebody is getting married because they are
pregnant. You don't have an insight nor
information about them, you can't reach those
people so you just write anything you want. But
anyway I didn't let that bother me, I just kept it to
myself. Even when I was rehearsing for my show
because we had two different dance routines and
it was difficult, so I didn't even have time to dwell
on that.
On what she loves most about him
I love everything about him and he is very
understanding. He understands the essence of us
being on earth which is just to worship God and he
is God fearing.
That's the first thing I noticed about him and I was
even surprised. I have always said If I had choice, I
will marry a musician but then which musician can
I now marry (laughs). He is very God fearing and at
least we are not perfect but if you are God fearing,
you will always know when you are doing
something wrong.

A lot of things have been said concerning
women and virginity. We have been told, taught
and lectured on how to recognise a woman with
virginity and vice versa...
I will also want to know how can ladies know if
a man is a virgin or not.
What are those features and characteristics
the man would show for us to conclude if he's
a virgin or not.

Another breakthrough has been
recorded in Imo State by security agencies
in their current fight against the
establishment of baby making factories and
trafficking in human beings, as no fewer than
14 pregnant teenagers were rescued by
security operatives who stormed a building
located at Umuguma, Owerri, Imo State.
Vanguard gathered that the latest baby
making factory is said to be owned and run
by a member of the Cherubim and Seraphim
Church, simply identified as Pastor Chinedu.
Feelers from some residents of Umuguma,
claimed that the Pastor was a staff of one
the local governments in the state.
A villager, who spoke on strict grounds of
anonymity, told Vanguard that the security
operatives stormed the premises last
Wednesday afternoon.
“The security personnel rescued about 14
pregnant teenage girls when they stormed
the place (baby making factory). They also
arrested the owner of the baby factory,” the
villager recounted.
He recalled that the pastor recently hired an
uncompleted building in the community and
quartered the pregnant girls in the unhealthy
environment.
Vanguard recalls that only recently, the
state police command raided a baby factory
at Umuaka, run by a woman simply identified
as Madam One Thousand.
In this particular operation, no fewer than
26 pregnant teenagers were rescued, while a
23-year-old boy said to be hired by the
woman to impregnate the girls, was also
arrested.

A 24-year-old teacher, Phillip Ebong, was
arrested on Wednesday by the Gowon Estate
Police Division, Akowonjo, Lagos, for allegedly
victimising a 14-year-old pupil (name withheld)
and banning her from attending his classes.
Ebong, who teaches Physics and Chemistry at
the Dee Jewels International College, Gowon
Estate, Egbeda, was arrested during school
hours after a complaint was lodged at the
police station by Spaces for Change, a non-
governmental organisation on youth
development, on behalf of the pupil and her
guardian, Mrs. Theresa Amaechi.
A copy of the petition made available to
PUNCH Metro revealed that Ebong began
harassing the victim from the first day of her
enrolment in the school in January 2013.
The petition read, "On repeated occasions,
Ebong invited the victim to the staff room
informing her of his desire to have an intimate
relationship with her. Consequently, the victim
became a regular visitor to the staff room
during break periods.
"On such visits, he made sexual advances to
her which often involved kissing and hugging.
Several times, Ebong followed her home,
waiting at the gate to avoid being seen by her
guardian."
The petition alleged that under much pressure
from Ebong, the victim eventually invited the
teacher to her guardians' home while they
were away.
Ebong was alleged to have cajoled her to
expose her private part, after handling her
breasts and kissing her.
It was said the harassment became too
persistent, that the victim allegedly earned
the title, "Uncle Phillip's wife," among her
classmates and friends.
Amaechi told PUNCH Metro, "The victim is a
timid girl. I did not know the extent of the
harassment she was facing until she opened up
to me last Friday. Earlier, she had told me
Ebong was asking her for a relationship and I
told her to reject his advances. I thought it
would stop at that.
"I was shocked when she told me last week
that she was no longer interested in staying in
the science class; she wanted to switch to the
arts and when I asked why, she said it was
because Ebong had banned her from his
classes.
"Apparently, she had told him that I was
aware that he had asked her for a sexual
relationship. The revelation angered him. He
even went as far as threatening that she would
fail her examinations,"
As of the time of Ebong's arrest, the school
principal was said to be busy as the SSS III
students were taken the WAEC examination.
However the school proprietor, identified as
Mrs. Azubuike, who was alerted to the
development, rushed down to the school. She
said the victim never made a formal report to
the school.
She said, "We don't condone such acts here.
Had we been informed on time, we would have
taken appropriate action."
When confronted, Ebong allegedly denied the
accusation. He blamed the entire situation on
his interest in his students' success.
He said, "I am close to all my students; that is
what I was taught in the College of Education
that a teacher had to be friendly. I just took
an interest in the victim because I noticed she
was not taking her homework seriously. All this
talk of my touching and kissing her, they are
all lies. I admit going to her house but it was
because I wanted to see her guardian."
Executive Director of Spaces for Change,
Mrs. Victoria Ibezim-Ohaeri, said Amaechi
came to her with the case on the same day her
ward confided in her.
She said, "We are prepared to seek legal
redress in the court should the school and
police fail to investigate this matter and
exercise full disciplinary action against Ebong.
"Our investigation has also shown that there
are other students currently being abused by
this same Ebong.
"These acts of misconduct are not only
indicative of poor supervision and negligence
on the part of the school authorities, but also
amount to continuing breeches of the victim's
fundamental human rights."
As of press time, PUNCH Metro gathered
that the police had obtained statements from
the victim's classmates and friends.
The Lagos State Police Public Relations
Officer, DSP Ngozi Braide, when contacted,
said, "I will let you know when I have the full
details."

A British
businesswoman and
an Irish welder
convicted of having
drunken sex in the
back of a taxi in Dubai
have been
sentenced to two
months in jail after
losing an appeal.
Rebecca Blake, 30, from
Dorking, Surrey, and
Conor McRedmond, 28,
from Tullamore, Co.
Offaly, had spent a year
fighting the allegations.
Witnesses said
recruitment executive
Blake stripped off before
straddling McRedmond,
who had his jeans
pulled down.
The pair denied the
accusations and
yesterday said they
were 'disappointed' by
the outcome, which will
see both deported after
serving their sentences.
Blake, who was sacked
from her £120,000-a-
year post, said: 'I am
devastated by this result
and gutted this has been
dragging on for a year. I
cannot wait to get home
and start my life now
but I am very scared
about going to prison.'
McRedmond has been
living in Dubai for four
years, said: 'I am
disappointed after
coming this far and
fighting these allegations
for so long. I feel they
are making an example
of us.'
Blake and McRedmond
do not have to go to jail
immediately and can
decide when to hand
themselves in - but if
they are arrested in the
meantime or get into
trouble with the law,
they will be taken
straight to prison.
They cannot leave the
country until they have
served their sentence.
The pair said they had
been financially crippled
by the case after
spending more than
€50,000 fighting to clear
their names.
Blake, who moved to
Dubai in September
2011, has not been able
to find work since she
was sacked and neither
of them can leave the
country after having
their passports
confiscated.
Blake and McRedmond
were arrested on May 4
last year after going on
a ten-hour drinking
binge. The pair met
hours earlier at a
brunch, where they
admitted getting drunk
on free-flowing wine
and vodka in an all-
inclusive €45-a-head
deal.
They carried on drinking
at a hotel and got into a
taxi together at about
10pm.
Taxi driver Qaiser Khan,
30, claimed within
minutes of getting in,
Blake had taken her top
off and was writhing on
top of McRedmond
while 'making the
sounds of a woman
having sex'.
He pulled over on
Sheikh Zayed road and
summoned policeman
Abdullah Obaid Khamis,
who told the court that
he found the pair having
sex and interrupted
them by tapping on the
window.
He told prosecutors:
'They kept having sex
for four minutes. The
man's shirt was open,
his trousers were down
to his knees and the
woman was not
wearing any
underwear.'
The taxi driver alleged
Blake offered him 'a lot
of money' to tell
prosecutors they had
been kissing rather than
having sex, but he
refused.
Blake and McRedmond,
who works as a
manager at Kelly Steel
engineering firm, said
the allegations had been
trumped up after they
rowed with the taxi
driver about taking a
longer route home.
The pair were originally
convicted in November
in the criminal court,
where they were both
sentenced to three
months in jail and given
a €630 fine for drinking
alcohol - a crime in the
Islamic country.
The sentence was
challenged in the Court
of Appeal in February,
which cut the sentence
by a month and
reduced the fine.
But the Supreme Court -
the highest court in the
United Arab Emirates -
refused to drop the
charges altogether,
despite medical reports
proving the couple did
not have sex.
Their lawyer Shaker al
Shammary yesterday
said the statements of
the two witnesses were
inconsistent, adding:
'They threatened to
complain about the taxi
driver and he beat them
to it - yet there is no
mention of their dispute
in the Supreme Court
judgment.
'The medical records
show what the
witnesses said was not
true but this was not
taken into account in the
ruling.'
The duo's only options
now are to beg for a
royal pardon from
Sheikh Mohammed bin
Rashid al Maktoum, the
ruler of Dubai, or they
can serve their time and
challenge the
deportation order in the
courts.
McRedmond said: 'We
find ourselves in exactly
the same position we
were in after the original
verdict but thousands of
pounds poorer.
'Any court in the world
would accept the
medical evidence above
all else. I love Dubai and
wanted to carry on
living here but I am left
without a choice.'
There were fears their
failure to clear their
names is part of a
crackdown from Dubai
authorities on expats
flouting their strict rules.
Vince Acors and
Michelle Palmer, a British
couple caught having
sex on a beach, were
treated more leniently in
2008 when they were
convicted on the same
charge of indecency and
ordered to serve three
months in prison, but
received a suspended
sentence on appeal.

Nigeria soccer buffs
have hailed the
gesture by Africa Cup
of Nations star,
Emmanuel Emenike's
offer to award his
colleagues 50,000
dollars (N7.9m) if
they defeat the
Harambee Stars of
Kenya in their June 6
World Cup qualifier.
They
acknowledged the
move as a worthy
manner of motivating
the players, even with
his absence from the
squad. Emenike has
been sidelined by injury.
Some have described
his offer as a
"motivational therapy'.
They reasoned that
Nigeria's qualification
could hasten Emenike's
recovery. Some also
said that Emenike's offer
was similar to the likes
of some African soccer
greats like Cameroon's
Samuel Eto Fils, George
Opone Weah of Liberia
and Seydou Keita of Mali
who have motivated
their colleagues before
major competitions.
Christian Chukwu, a
former Super Eagles
coach, told the News
Agency of Nigeria (NAN)
that the offer showed
how player regarded
the qualification of the
team for the World Cup.
"It is a very good
gesture; if other people
can emulate him, we
will be better off and
have a stronger team.
Although he is injured,
we pray for him to get
better before the match,
which will be a good
incentive to motivate the
players''.
Iroha, an ex-
International, said that
Emenike had proved
that he had a heart of
gold, to support the
boys even in his
absence. "I appreciate
him for that. It is not
easy to pull such a
stunt. I wish the team
well. I know that the
team will miss him on
the field but they should
work with one mind
and with that, they will
make a success of the
qualifier,'' he said.
Ndubuisi Nduka, Head
Coach of Heartland FC of
Owerri, described
Emenike's gesture as an
expression of
`patriotism'. "The young
man is one who is
emotionally attached to
his country and will
want to contribute to
the glory of his
fatherland as he has
shown by that offer.
That goes to show that
his mind is with the
team, whether on or off
the pitch. It's a sort of
internal motivation for
the team, coming from
one of them," Nduka
said.
Chinedu Efugh, Captain
of Heartland, said that it
was a good sign of
oneness in the team. "A
good team is one that is
made up of inputs from
all the departments. The
fact that he is not going
to be with the team
notwithstanding, his
contribution will go a
long way to spur it to
victory," he said.
Mutiu Adepoju, an ex
Super Eagles player,
said for a player to offer
that kind of amount
showed that he was
interested in the team's
victory. "If he can offer
that, then it means he is
capable of doing it,'' he
said.
Former coach of the
Super Falcons, Paul
Hamilton, said it was a
superb
encouragement . "I am
astonished at the way
he (Emenike) took
charge and told his
teammates to help him
to win, to qualify for the
2014 World Cup in
Brazil. I pray that they
(Eagles) remain focused
on the field of play''.
Joe Erico, a former
Eagles trainer, also
commended Emenike,
saying , he was up to
the task. I believe words
of encouragement
would give his team
mates the desired push
to go all out. "Even
when it won't be an
easy one for them, but I
am positive that the
results will be fair
enough,'' added the
former goalkeeper
trainer. Erico noted: "The
team needs more of
such encouragement
from football
administrators and fans
alike.
"The team needs more
of our support. We
should always have this
positive mindset when it
comes to football,
because it is what
brings us together," he
added.

Kabiru Sokoto, who
is standing trial for
the 2011 Christmas
Day bombing of St.
Theresa's Catholic
Church, Madalla,
Niger State,
yesterday opened up
in court, explaining
how they carried out
the attack.
Sokoto was arraigned
for terrorism at the
Federal High Court,
Maitama in Abuja.
The Boko Haram leader
and mastermind of the
church's bombing, who
since his arraignment,
had denied involvement
or knowledge of the
deadly attack, suddenly
opened up yesterday on
how they plotted and
killed over 40
worshippers on
December 25, 2011 at
about 8.00am. Sokoto
dismissed claims that
the attack on the church
was carried out by a
suicide bomber.
Another bombshell by
Sokoto is the financial
link Boko Haram had
with Algeria and how a
group which is the
sect's financial backbone
had been instrumental
to their means of fund
raising to carry out
deadly attacks. The
sharing of funds by the
members of the Islamist
sect, he said, led to the
major crack in Boko
Haram.
On the church
bombing, Sokoto told
the court that the
incident was a
coordinated attack that
was executed by two
persons- Bashir
Mohammed and
Mukthar Kafanchan
under the supervision of
Sulieman Habib, who is
the commander of Boko
Haram in Niger State.
Giving further insight
into how the attack was
carried out, he said: "It
was not a suicide
bomber as many
believed. It was a
coordinated attack. The
car that was used for
the operation was
parked near the church,
laden with explosives
and later detonated by
the people assigned for
the job," he told the
court.
On the Algerian
sponsors, he said an
Algerian group,
Muslimiyama, which
means 'the group from
the sunset,' frequently
sent money to them. He
noted that it was the
sharing of N40million
sent by the group that
split the sect into two
factions.
"There is a group in
Algeria, Muslimiyama,
meaning 'the group
from the sunset', which
normally sends money
to us. And it was
because of the sharing
of N40million they sent
to us that our sect split
into two.
I was given N500,000
out of the money which
I used to buy Koran and
other books." However,
contrary to reports,
Sokoto said the
Presidential Committee
on Dialogue and
Peaceful Resolution of
Security Challenges had
never met with him.

As a relationship specialist, one of
my biggest concerns has to do with
all the emphasis that's placed on
the wedding day. Here are some topics to
discuss with your spouse-to-be before the
big day:
1. Will you have kids and, if so, how will
you raise them? Assuming that you both want
to be parents someday, how many do you want
to have and how will you raise them as co-
parents? Will they be raised under one
religion? How do you expect to discipline them?
What are your expectations about taking them
on vacations? What are the expectations about
who will be the primary caretaker? If one of
you goes on parental leave, will that person be
expected to eventually go back to work?
2. How will you manage your finances? What
individual assets and debts will you bring to the
marriage? Who will pay the bills? What will be
considered a "big ticket" item and how much
money can spend on a purchase before you
should consult your spouse? How will you save?
What are your financial goals and how will you
reach them together? Will there be joint bank
account or separate bank accounts? Will you
each have an allowance of spending money and
how much?
3. How will you spend free time? How do you
expect to spend it -- together or individually?
Will you still have time with friends that
doesn't include each other? How often would
you like to vacation and what kind of
destinations would you like to visit? How will
you let each other know if you feel like you
need space?
4. Do you have expectations about sex? How
often will you have sex? When is a good time?
How will you keep your sex life from getting
boring? How will you share sexual fantasies and
desires? Do you have any boundaries when it
comes to intimacy?
5. How will you divvy up chores?Who will do
what in the home? If your spouse cooks dinner,
are you expected to clean the dishes, pots and
pans? Who will keep up with the maintenance
around the house? Who will mow the lawn or
take out the trash? Will the children lend a
hand in the chores and will they be given an
allowance? How will you divvy up the everyday
load?
6. What can you do to openly communicate?
How can you make sure that you keep your
communication as good as it is now? How will
you make sure to handle your conflicts
appropriately? Will you check in with each
other at the end of the day or once a week?
What can you do as an individual to make sure
that you keep the health of your marriage a
priority?
7. Do you have any annoyances? What annoys
you? What annoys your spouse-to-be? How will
you let each other know when certain habits or
behaviors bother you? How is it best to tell the
other person about things regarding family that
are upsetting?
Paraphrasing a famous commercial from years
ago: the more educated you are, the better off
you will be. So, have yourselves an intelligent
and informative conversation so that when the
big day arrives, you'll have a ball!

Proliferation of small arms and light weapons
is increasingly and dangerously becoming a
transnational organized crime in Nigeria,
with Boko Haram's insurgency, re-emerging
Niger Delta crisis and escalating kidnapping,
communal crises and armed robbery in the
South East providing impetus for arms
trafficking.
Some border towns, particularly in the North
Eastern flank, serve as a hub for trafficking of
arms as well as stolen goods, drugs and
hostages by criminals, terrorists and their
collaborators. The recent kidnap of a French
family at a border town between Nigeria and
Cameroon is an example. Similarly, many arms
and ammunition of various types, sizes and
calibre have been intercepted and confiscated
by security agencies. The recurrent detection
and recovery of cache of arms, ammunition and
Improvised Explosive Device Materials by the
Joint Task Force, JTF, further buttresses the
point. Similarly, the occasional recovery of
stolen goods and hard drugs from criminals and
terrorists' camps or hideouts is an indication
that the illicit trade has been on the rise in
recent times.
Of concern is the discovery that despite the
efforts of security agencies, the "merchants of
death" continue to engage in arms trafficking/
trading through covert means largely aided and
abetted by the porous nature of the Nigerian
borders with Cameroon, Chad, and Niger.
Recently, the Comptroller General of Nigerian
Immigration Services stated that the Service
had discovered hundreds of illegal routes in
Nigeria that link or lead to some neighbouring
African countries.
Nigeria's borders are massive with hundreds of
footpaths crisscrossing to neighboring
countries of Cameroon, Chad and Niger with
links to Mali, Libya and Sudan. From
conservative estimate by locals, there are well
over 250 footpaths from Damaturu/Maiduguri
axis that link or lead direct to Cameroon, Chad
or Niger. These paths, which are mostly
unknown to security agencies, are unmanned,
unprotected and have continued to serve as
conveyor belts for arms and ammunitions
trafficking into Nigeria.
It is disheartening and unfortunate that the
"merchants of death" have since devised
methods to beat security agencies at the
borders, chief among them, through the
footpaths. These methods include the use of
camels, donkeys and cows to traffic arms,
ammunition and drugs such as cocaine into
Nigeria. The fact that the weapons are small,
light and collapsible makes it easy to be
concealed and moved on camels and donkeys'
back in a specially crafted skin or thatched
bags mainly meant for the illegal "expedition"
undetected. Similarly, some cows and grains
merchants in the North- East sub - region of
the country device means of hiding cache of
arms and ammunition in empty fuel tankers,
vehicle engines and bags of grains.
The "grains" are transported in large number
via trucks, trailers, lorries and old model
pickup vans and jeeps with little attention given
to them by security agents. The use of Jega
type of tricycles ( KEKE-NAPEP) as well as
camels, donkeys, and cows (moving in flocks) to
deceive, hide and conveniently traffic arms in
some parts of the North are ways hitherto
unknown, not well exposed or documented.
Their capacity for arms trafficking is
beginning to be uncovered and is being
curtailed by security agencies. The security
situation in the JTF Operation RESTORE
ORDER area of responsibility forced the task
force to take on additional responsibility to
trace sources of arms and ammunition to Boko
Haram insurgents, how the arms are trafficked
and are also taking measures to block them.
This is one way of effectively checkmating
terrorism in Nigeria - destroy its centre of
gravity! And this seems to be a task that has so
far proved difficult but necessary to be
accomplished if the war against insurgency is to
be effective and successful.

A picture taken from a video distributed to
journalists in recent days through
intermediaries and obtained by AFP on March
5, 2013 reportedly shows Abubakar Shekau (C),
the suspected leader of Nigerian Islamist
extremist group Boko Haram, flanked by six
armed and hooded fighters in an undisclosed
place.
Similarly, the Libyan and Malian rebels are
desperate to exchange arms for money to Boko
Haram terrorists, their financiers and
collaborators as the sect has since been
affiliated to Al-Qaida in the Maghreb. This has
added to the overwhelming challenge of the
influx of illegal aliens, arms, ammunitions and
sophisticated IED materials into the country
and an efficient and effective fight against
terrorism. Additionally, the water ways/
seaports provide havens for arms trafficking
through ships and speed boats on high seas and
the use of canoes in the creeks. The exchange
of stolen crude oil for arms/ ammunition is a
well known "trading activity" nurtured and
ferociously protected by militants or sea
pirates and their financiers and collaborators
with the possible connivance of unscrupulous
law enforcement agents in the Niger Delta. This
is one major source of arms and ammunition
that strengthens militants' arms and
ammunition holding not only in the Niger Delta
but also in the South East and South Western
parts of the country.
Security agencies at the borders and seaports
have severally complained of the porosity of
the nation's borders and waterways. The
problem of porous borders is compounded by
inadequate personnel, patrol vehicles,
surveillance helicopters and equipment.
Consequently, most of the borders are leaky
and this makes effective control of intruders,
smugglers and "merchants of death" a mirage.
The vastness of the nation's borders in the
face of these challenges bring to the fore the
need for a rethink on the management and
security of the Nigeria's borders and seaports
- without which effective fight against
insurgency, arms trafficking and proliferation
will remain an optical illusion. There must be
innovative technology; sound policies, proficient
process that will help protect our borders. It is
worrisome that the exact number of illegal
routes and means through which illegal aliens,
arms and ammunition are trafficked into the
country are largely unknown by the nation's
security system.
The use of innovative technology - radars and
alarm systems- are major ways developed
countries utilize to monitor and secure their
borders. Some radars can be used as primary
detection sensor for long range remote
surveillance platforms. The ability to detect
slow moving targets, even in complex
mountainous, thickly forested terrains and
large open areas make some radars such us
Blighter Radar ideal for remote surveillance
and detection of vehicles and people trying to
cross borders illegally.
In remote areas, it is common for intruders to
follow natural routes across the land, valleys,
mountain paths or animal tracks. In these
instances, Mobile Surveillance System provides
a cost effective way of monitoring key areas
with limited resources. Similarly, Blighter
Radar, unlike traditional Air Surveillance
Radar, can effectively survey both the land and
low air zone simultaneously.
Correspondingly, the fundamental problem of
border security, arms trafficking, efficient
and effective fight against terrorism in
Nigeria can be linked to what Mr. Olusegun
Adeniyi tersely identified as institutional
fragmentation, intelligence and policy non-
coordination among the security agencies.
These challenges are real and must be
addressed for the fight against terrorism,
arms proliferation and border security to be
effective.

Meet the ridiculously good-looking man who
was reportedly told to leave Saudi Arabia
for being too handsome.
Omar Borkan Al Gala, an actor and
photographer from Dubai, was given
his marching orders along with a
number of other men at a cultural festival
earlier this month.
With his perfectly formed cheekbones,
captivating gaze and well groomed appearance,
it's easy to see why authorities felt so
threatened by his good looks.
They were so worried, in fact, they thought the
United Arab Emirates delegates might corrupt
impressionable women at the annual Janadriyah
Festival.
Omar Borkan Al Gala was told to leave Saudi
Arabia (Picture: YouTube) 'A festival official
said the three Emiratis were taken out on the
grounds they are too handsome and that the
Commission members feared female visitors
could fall for them,' Arabic newspaper Elaph
reported.
Concerned women might suddenly start
stripping naked and throwing themselves at the
men, police seemingly decided the best option
was to remove them from the country.
Others have speculated the men may have been
asked to leave because of the unexpected

LAGOS — Controversy currently trails the parenthood of five-month-old twins who were presented at the United States of America’s embassy by their supposed parents for the procurement of visa.

This follows result of a DNA test ordered by the embassy which reports showed that the couple were not the biological parents of the twins as claimed.

Consequently, the couple have been arrested and are being interrogated at the Special Fraud Unit, SFU Milverton, for alleged child-trafficking.

Although investigation, according to the unit, had not been concluded, there were indication that the children could have been bought for N1.8 million somewhere in Port Harcourt, Rivers State.

Following the discovery, the passport of the supposed father, Mr Adenuga Shoyibo, a Nigerian based in America has been seized pending the outcome of the investigation.

But Soyibo, who claimed to be a USA citizen, maintained that the children were theirs, disclosing that the twins came at a traditional home in Port Harcourt, 15 years after they got married.

He further revealed that he paid N1.8 million to the trado-medical practitioner for the herbs administered to his wife which eventually led to her conception.

But in the course of investigation, Commissioner of Police in charge of the unit, Mr Tunde Ogunsaki, was said to have detailed some policemen to accompany Elizabeth to the trado medical home where she claimed the babies were delivered,with a view to ascertaining her claim.

The CP said: “During investigation, detectives travelled to Port-Harcourt, Rivers State where the woman claimed she gave birth to the twins in a private small house. But on reaching Port-Harcourt, the woman claimed she could no longer locate the place, she also stated that she had no antenatal record anywhere as she did not attend any.

“Adenuga Soyibo, who claimed to be the father of the twins, on his own part, said he was also given local herbs that boosted his sperm count that produced the babies.

Both suspects claimed they could no longer trace the woman whom they paid the N1.8 million for the local herbs for the babies delivery. They also could not produce anyone who knew about the conception and the subsequent delivery of the babies.”

Mr Soyibo, however, said he met the woman, one Mrs Okoro, last year, adding that when the delivery date was near, he arrived the country November 19, 2012 and four days later his wife travelled to Port Harcourt where she was delivered same day and returned to their Ikorodu abode the following day.

He further stated that he did not go to Port Harcourt with his wife, saying he was too tired because of the journey.

Currently, Soyibo’s travelling documents have been seized pending the outcome of investigation. But the couple were released on bail, yesterday, and advised to be visiting for further interrogation.

Months after opening his night club, PoP, in
Victoria Island, Mavin CEO and ace music
producer Don Jazzy has shut it down. Heard
he shut down the club down after realizing
running a music label is different from running
a night club.
PoP was shut down because it wasn't making
money as expected. Heard some people will
show up at the club just to take photos with
him and leave. Also, some important people will
buy drinks and not pay. Naija people sef. Lol.
Well, he has shut the club down to concentrate
fully on his music label.

Marriage is the dream of every woman, and every man. Finding a good partner, for life, is like finding your divine blessing, that can last you for a lifetime.

In this part of the world, we are more idealists than realists. If we face setbacks in our businesses, we are always comfortable with reciting the famous words: “it is well”. If rain soaks you on the way to the office, it’s “showers of blessings” and a promotion is probably on the way. If our right palm itches, it means some long lost relative will send cash soon.

It is no wonder that for many ladies, marriage seems to be the escape route from society’s pressures. Many of us fantasize, dream or even start planning a wedding before meeting “the right one”. Worse still, the romantic movies of heroes falling in love with less than perfect women and sweeping them off their feet in a proposal at the airport, add fuel to our flame of fantasy.

The truth is: idealism is great, but the idealist never knows what to do when the real situation hits hard like a deadly punch from a wrestler’s fist.

The Most Glamorous Part Of A Marriage Is The Wedding
A gorgeous cake, fresh flowers, wedding gown by Vera Wang, the exotic honeymoon, the paparazzi – all these come into play at the wedding. From the moment the bride wakes up on her wedding day to the moment she spends her first official night as a married woman, she feels on top of the world. Too bad, the party can’t last forever.

When you see an elderly couple retaking their marriage vows, with tears in their eyes, please note that those tears are not just tears of happiness; there are tears of a story well told – of joy, pain, courage, sadness and victory against all odds. If you’re not ready to deal with these, it’s not a sin to wait a little. Marriage is hard work and sacrifice.

The Word ‘Sacrifice’ Will Suddenly Come Up More Often In Your Dictionary
This word, we all dread – sacrifice. From the first day, you would find out that you may have to place the needs of others before yours, and if you are blessed with children, get ready for more sacrifices.

Will there be times you wish you were single? Yes! Will there be times you wish for one minute to yourself? Definitely! If given the opportunity, would you do it all over again? For most people, YES – especially if you are with the right person.

Marriage Is Not For Pretenses Or Show-Off
Whether you cook with diamonds in your Egusi soup, or look like a goddess, or even know a thousand styles in bed, a man always knows to whom his heart belongs. The meaning is simple: Be yourself before marriage, and don’t try to portray what you are not.

Let him fall in love with the essence of you, not with an image you have created. It’s difficult to fall out of such love, except either of you change sometime during the marriage.

You Never Really Know A Man/Woman Until You Get Married
Forget that you two lived in the same house for a few years before marriage, as far as there is no contract binding the two of you together in matrimony, you have not started.

People tend to let down their hair when they are married, and like an onion, the real us we have kept to ourselves start to unravel. The only thing to do is adjust and move on – you’re in it for real this time.

Marriage Is Team Work
Like a job, if you like team work, this role is for you. Just kidding. What I am saying here is that if you don’t work together as a team, you are heading for a major disaster. The unfortunate thing is that you can’t control the other person’s mind, and vice versa.

So, one just has to respect the other person’s boundaries, and it’s difficult if both of you are always bent on having your way.

Like A Rollercoaster, There Are Ups And Downs
Don’t think that in marriage, every day will be a holiday. You are kidding yourself. In fact, the most ecstatic moments in marriage come after a low period. Like every good story, you will be faced with challenges and tests.

Even if you fail one, life will give you an opportunity to repeat the test. But when you pass one, the rewards are priceless.

Marriage Is The Ultimate Gamble
Sometimes, marriage leads to happily ever after. Sometimes, it doesn’t. All is fair in love and war. If it doesn’t, dust your feet, learn from past mistakes, and start painting a rosy future without giving in to society’s pressures.

Many times, society looks down on divorced women. We are quick to point fingers that it is a woman’s fault that things did not work out. The fact is, it could be anybody’s fault. Either man or woman.

In the end, marriage is about two selfless people living together to achieve each other’s goals. If you find the right person to make that sacrifice with you, you are extremely lucky.
