on May 19, 2014 / 

KANO, May 18, 2014 (AFP) – A suspected car bomb ripped through a crowded entertainment spot in the north Nigerian city of Kano on Sunday, witnesses said.

Also at least 40 villagers were killed and several others injured on Saturday evening in Dalwa-Masuba village of Damboa local of Borno state in northeast Nigerian, security sources and witnesses said.

“At about 2200 (2100 GMT), we heard an explosion and immediately mobilised to the scene where we discovered a suicide bomber… five people, including the bomber, were killed,” Adelere Shinaba told reporters, adding that the victims were “three men and a girl of about 12″.

Shinaba said it was too early to say who was responsible for the attack, which happened in the busy Sabon Giri district of the city.

Locals also said the blast was on a busy road lined with bars in the predominantly Christian area of Sabon Giri, and the blast could be heard several kilometres (miles) away, Channels television said 10 people had been killed.

Another eye witness who call Vanguard on phone said that about twenty five people were killed as a result of the bast.

A Reporter said the charred and mangled remains of five cars could be seen outside one of the many bars and eateries on the now deserted street, which was dimly lit because of power cuts.

A sixth car, a Volkswagen Golf said by police to have been used by the bomber, was ripped into three pieces, with its engine resting on the roadside.

Windows on the two-storey buildings lining the street were smashed and armed police and soldiers stood guard.

The blast happened at about 9:30 pm (2030 GMT) when the area was crowded with revellers as well as street hawkers and traders.

Witnesses claimed that a car was left in the Middle Road area of Sabon Giri and its driver left on a motorbike. The blast happened soon afterwards.

Kano is Nigeria’s second-most populous city and a commercial centre for the whole of the Muslim-majority north.

Local government elections were held in Kano on Saturday, at which the main opposition All Progressives Congress (APC) routed the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) of President Goodluck Jonathan, winning all 44 seats.

The PDP alleged irregularities and said it would challenge the result, local newspapers said.

Links were made on social networking sites to the local election but the explosion also came a day after Nigeria and its neighbours announced a regional response to the threat by Boko Haram Islamists.

Two survivors of a suicide bomb blast sit in the emergency unit of Kano’s hospital, northern Nigeria, on May 18, 2014. Five people including the bomber were killed when an explosives-laden car exploded near an open-air beer garden, destroying six cars and shattering windows of several buildings. AFP

The militant group has been holding 223 of 276 girls it kidnapped from a school in the town of Chibok, in northeastern Borno state, on April 14, which has led to an international response to find them.

40 killed village, burnt as gunmen assail Borno village

About 40 villagers were killed and several others injured on Saturday evening in Dalwa-Masuba village of Damboa local of Borno state in northeast Nigerian, security sources and witnesses said.

The gunmen who were reported to have attacked the villages in their large numbers also burnt down the entire village along side three pickup vans carrying fire woods from Damboa to Maiduguri, the state capital.

A member of the security vigilante (Abbas Gava) who spoke on phone, said no security personnel had reached the attacked town at the time he was speaking.

“We heard about the attack from some of the villagers who fled the village, and we had to drive there on our patrol van; the entire village was set on fire, and about 40 persons lying dead all over the place; three firewood pickups were also set ablaze”, the local vigilante said.

But the attack however has not been confirmed by the police and other security operatives, as all their phone numbers could not be reached for confirmation as at press time.

Student Beats Up Armed Policeman In Abuja

Student Beats Up Armed Policeman In Abuja                         February 11, 2014

The police on Monday in Abuja arraigned a 22-year-old student, Ibrahim Salisu, in a Wuse Zone 2 Senior Magistrates’ Court for beating up a policeman. Salisu, who lives at 4, Olumo Rock, Amasco Plantation Estate, Galadimawa in Abuja, is charged with joint criminal force and assaulting a public servant. The prosecutor, Cpl. Anigbo Paul, told the court that Cpl. Chijioke Jacob of the Lugbe Police Station had lodged a report against the accused at the station. He said the report was lodged on Feb. 9 at about 9 p.m. Paul told the court that, on the said day, the accused had gone to the complainant’s house as he was about to park his car and beat him up. The prosecutor said the accused and three others now at large beat the complainant while he was dressed in uniform and started trying to
take his rifle from him. He told the court further that, during investigation, Salisu confessed to committing the offence. Paul said Salisu’s action was in contravention of the provisions of sections 79 and 267 of the Penal Code. It was gathered that the
accused, if convicted, is liable to three years’
imprisonment or an option of paying a fine or both.
The accused pleaded not guilty to the charges
against him. After arraignment, the accused’s
counsel, Mr Ikechukwu Nnaemeka, applied to the
court for bail according to Section 341 of the Criminal
Procedure Code (CPC). The prosecutor objected and
prayed the court not to grant the accused bail. The
Senior Magistrate, Mr Celestine Odo, in his ruling
however said the prosecutor failed to show the court
how granting the accused bail would jeopardise
ongoing investigation. Odo also admonished Salisu’s
counsel for failing to state the contents of the section
he cited in his argument, saying “a lawyer should be
prepared before coming to court”. He then granted
the accused bail in the sum of N100,000. The
magistrate also said this must be with a surety in like
sum, who must be resident within the jurisdiction of
the court and must be a public servant. Odo said the
surety should present his or her office identity card
and appointment letter. He then adjourned the
matter to March 3 for hearing.

Arsenal fan kills Liverpool supporter during Liverpool – Arsenal game

An Arsenal fan in Kenya stabbed a Liverpool supporter to death on Saturday while they were watching on television as the Merseyside club beat the Londoners 5-1 in the Premier League, said a local police chief. Tom Odera, police chief in the north eastern region of Meru, said “the assailant and the deceased had a bitter
argument over the match”. “The assailant, David
Mwangi, drew out a knife and stabbed Anthony
Mutethia,” Odera told Reutersby telephone on
Monday. Kenyans, like most Africans, are fervent
English Premier League fans and regularly throng
bars and restaurants to watch their favorite teams.
The fanatical support has, in the past, seen Kenyan
football fans grab headlines for the wrong reasons. A
Manchester United follower in the capital of Nairobi
last year committed suicide after his team lost to
Newcastle United. In 2009, an Arsenal fan hanged
himself after the Londoners lost to United in the
second leg of a Champions League semi-final game.
“We encourage people to be football fans as a hobby
but taking fanaticism into football is discouraged,”
said Odera. Reuters

Popular Nollywood Actor Emeka Ike’s Properties Taken Over By Court! [PHOTOS]

Popular Nollywood Actor Emeka Ike’s Properties Taken Over By Court! [PHOTOS] Story by Joy Akosa/Nigeriafilms.com

Last Updated: 15 hours ago

Its a pity! This is not a good way to start this year, for popular actor Emeka Ike this is not the best of times him and as a school proprietor , the actor ventured into another business and turned educationist’s with his school located at 1, Raji Olamideji Crescent, Magodo beside PMS filling station on CMD road but unfortunately the school was shut down or better still taken possession of by the court last week Friday, January 24, 2014 after a protracted court case that lasted for 5 years. Emeka had for some time now running battle with the owners of the property for the past 5 years, during which the well known actor refused to pay a dime to the property owners. The school St. Nicholas College, a secondary school was established in 2008 by the ace actor. And according to the gist then, Emeka was supposed to have invested about N200 million in the making the school happen at the property that they have now been sent packing from. All through the years of the school existence Emeka, his wife and the school had been engaged in one unconfirmed allegation after the other. Some of the allegations are as follows: None payment of salaries as at when due to the staff & teachers; he apparently used to owe many of those working for him for upwards of 6 months at a time. He was also alleged to prefer employing unqualified & non professional teachers in a school, where parents were paying exorbitant school fees thinking they were getting the best of education and more. So bad was the situation at the school at a point, that many parts of building were said to have been in a state of disrepair. At a point it was alleged that only 13 students remained in the school, as others had been withdrawn by their parents. Last week,the court bailiffs acting under instructions took possession of the school. Just before sealing it, they were reported to have carted away a few of the valuables that were still in the school, like the school bus, a few air-conditioners and some furniture. Some of the properties are still outside the school premises littering the frontage.

Manchester city have the chance to blast from the blocks

Chance City to blast from the blocks

Ben Coley previews Monday night's crucial Premier League clash between Manchester City and Chelsea.

Alvaro Negredo and Edin Dzeko can ensure City don't miss Sergio Aguero

Manchester City v Chelsea (2000 GMT)
Before attempting to predict the outcome of this game, it's important to establish whether or not you believe Jose Mourinho.
The Chelsea manager says his side will try to win at the Etihad Stadium and if that's truly the case, we're in for a cracker and over 2.5 goals (4/5) is close to a certainty.
The problem is that while Mourinho may claim otherwise, Chelsea haven't really tried to win when faced with trips to their rivals in the Premier League since his return to Stamford Bridge.
At times they looked like they might win at Old Trafford but ultimately 0-0 was a fair reflection of a match they started without a recognised striker. Soon after, Chelsea lost 1-0 at Everton having created little while it was clear that a 0-0 draw at Arsenal represented a satisfactory result, too.
The only time they've scored away from home at a rival was when drawing 1-1 at Tottenham and the man who obliged that day, Fernando Torres, will be missing from the side which faces this huge challenge on Monday night.
Such has been Manchester City's dominance at home that it's hard to say exactly what the best plan of action would be for Chelsea. If they do play to contain City then they may limit the damage, but can they really keep out this attack for 90 minutes even in the absence of Sergio Aguero? I'm not so sure.
But if they go for the jugular, can they outscore City? They may well find the net given that the hosts tend to concede in open games, but Arsenal, Tottenham and United were all comfortably out-scored and Chelsea are no more potent an attacking force.
Personally, I think they'll play for a point and bank on their defence - the best in the division away from home - being able to hold firm. It's a plan which could work, but I don't think it will.
City's home record needs no introduction but here it is anyway: 11 games, 11 wins, 42 scored and just eight conceded. They beat Liverpool, Crystal Palace and Cardiff without Aguero and in Edin Dzeko and Alvaro Negredo have two world-class strikers more than capable of plugging the gap.
The more I see of City, the more I consider them comfortably the best team in this division and they're not far off the top of the tree in Europe, either.
They've the additional boost of having beaten Chelsea in the last four renewals of this fixture and I'm confident they can do so again.
By all means back them to do so at 17/20, and consider the 14/5 quoted about a home win to nil if, like me, you think Chelsea's mandate will centre around defending.
However, my policy is to overlook slight concerns about a packed away defence and take the rare opportunity to back City in the half-time/full-time betting at bigger than 2/1.
City have won 17 times in the Premier League so far this season, and in 14 of them they led at the break. That's a remarkably impressive first-half record and includes victories against Tottenham, Arsenal, United and Liverpool.
If Chelsea do succeed in keeping them out for 45 minutes then a frustrated City could struggle to put them to bed after the break anyway, so it could just be that the hosts need a fast start to win.
Everything about the way they've operated all season at home suggests they'll produce one.
Verdict: Manchester City 2 Chelsea 0
Opta facts:
Manchester City have won 19 and lost just one of their last 21 Barclays Premier League games at the Etihad Stadium, including winning the last 11 in a row.
Chelsea have lost their last four Premier League visits to the Etihad, but no team has won more games away at Man City in Premier League history than the west Londoners (10).
Man City have won their last eight Premier League games in a row, longer than any run secured in the title winning season of 2011-12 (most was seven).

Moyes 'should be sacked'

Our panel reflect upon the weekend's Premier League action and look ahead to tonight's huge showdown between Manchester City and Chelsea.

David Moyes: Should be sacked says our Matt Brocklebank

 

Manchester United suffered yet another defeat on Saturday - their eighth of the Premier League campaign so far - as they were beaten 2-1 at Stoke. While their hopes of retaining the title are long gone, is there any way back for them in regards to a top-four spot?
Matt Brocklebank (sportinglife.com): There's only one way I see Man United finishing in the top four and that's if they act quickly and sack David Moyes. It may sound drastic to some and, hand on heart, I can't see it happening, but Moyes was the wrong choice to replace Sir Alex Ferguson in the first place and I don't see him turning it around for the Premier League title holders. Moyes spent 11 full seasons at the helm of Everton, guiding them to one top-four finish in that time, and the work Roberto Martinez has done in half a season at Goodison brings everything into perspective. You could argue Moyes is simply running up to form with his new side, but that's not good enough for a club of United's calibre so moving for a proven world-class manager with a Champions League pedigree such as Jurgen Klopp or Gus Hiddink looks the only answer to give the team a real shot in the arm. Moyes really shouldn't be as big as 33/1 to be the next Premier League manager to go but they have Fulham, Crystal Palace and West Brom among their next four league games so he really should be able to steady the ship. If not, Moyes should be staring down the barrel.
Chris Hammer (sportinglife.com): No. I'm not one for blowing my own trumpet but, and some of you will just have to take my word for this, I've regularly told readers of our Football Centre clockwatch since the season began that Manchester United will massively struggle to finish in the top four and so far I couldn't have been more right. United pretty much lost the fear factor as soon as Sir Alex Ferguson left and a string of disappointing results throughout the season continues to give future opponents belief that they too can compound David Moyes' misery. Earlier in the campaign the likes of West Brom, Everton and Newcastle all registered their first Old Trafford wins in decades, while Stoke's triumph on Saturday was the Potters' first league victory over United since 1984. Nobody is scared. And they haven't been for a while now. These results now spark only laughter from non-United fans rather than any kind of shock and I'm sure there's quite a few good-hearted folk out there actually feeling rather sorry for Moyes' plight, which sums up how dramatically their domineering aura has vanished. Their latest defeat was sustained after another largely toothless display despite the presence of Robin van Persie, Wayne Rooney and Juan Mata in the side and they now find themselves seven points and three places below fourth-placed Liverpool. At this rate a Europa League place might be even out of reach and, in my view, it might not be too long before that's all they've got left to focus on.
Zacharia Amin (Sky Bet football trading): Although Manchester United suffered their eighth defeat of this season's Premier League against Stoke, they arguably had a lucky escape with Liverpool and Tottenham also dropping points away from home against lesser opposition. United are now 100/30 to claim a top-four spot, drifting slightly from 3/1 as their chances of finishing in the top four hang by a thread. This weekend's result also confirmed that United effectively have no chance of retaining their Premier League title - they are now 150/1 to win the league and are in the running to complete the biggest drop-off after winning a league title in Premier League history.

Wenger confident on title chances

Arsene Wenger accepts Arsenal still have it "all to do" in their bid to stay ahead of free-scoring Manchester City in the race for the Barclays Premier League but is convinced it can happen.

The Gunners edged back to the top of the table with a 2-0 win over Crystal Palace on Sunday.
Arsenal, held to a 2-2 draw at Southampton in midweek, were still level at half time following a dogged display by an Eagles side who are fighting for survival.
However, England midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain - fit again following five months out with a serious knee injury suffered on the first day of the season - finally ended Palace's stubborn resistance when he chipped in a fine pass from Santi Cazorla at the start of the second half.
Arsenal goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny produced a brilliant save to deny Cameron Jerome an equaliser from a close-range diving header before World Cup hopeful Oxlade-Chamberlain struck again on 73 minutes to make sure of victory.
City host third-placed Chelsea on Monday night and so could once again knock the Gunners off the summit, and Wenger accepts many pundits see the title as City's to lose.
"I can understand that completely because we haven't done it for a while, and as well I must say that we face quality competitors," said Wenger, who expects to be without deadline-day loan arrival Kim Kallstrom for up to six weeks because of the midfielder's recovery from a back problem.
"We do not play against average teams and Man City have scored over 100 goals, so everybody thinks 'can you beat these teams?' I say yes, and that is what we have to show.
"It is all to do. The only thing I can say is that after 24 games we are there, and it's now about how we finish the season."

Palace remain in a dogfight for survival, just a point above 18th-placed West Ham.
Eagles boss Tony Pulis feels deadline-day arrivals such as Tom Ince from Blackpool and Joe Ledley from Celtic coupled with the imminent return to fitness of forward Glenn Murray can only boost their hopes.
He said: "We want to keep our organisation and our resilience and want to show the spirit we have over the past couple of months, but those three hopefully will give us more of a threat."
Wenger, meanwhile, admitted he would probably not have signed Kallstrom if he had been aware of the injury earlier.
The 31-year-old suffered a "micro-fracture" while on warm-weather training with Russian club Spartak Moscow.
"I would not have signed him if we had two or three more days to do something, but it was Friday night at five o'clock, so it was [a case of] you [sign] nobody or you do it under these conditions," said Wenger, who was already without Wales international Aaron Ramsey for around six weeks.
"There is a possibility [that he may not play], but as well there is the possibility that he scores us the winning goal that might be vitally important."

I have regular sex with some Nigerian politicians’ – gay Nigerian man

‘I have regular sex with some Nigerian politicians’ – gay Nigerian man

Posted on Jan 28 2014 - 9:05pm by TONI

Six years ago, Musa Ali (not his real name) was linked up with a rich businessman in Yola, who ‘initiated’ him into gay sex. Ali was told that being gay would make him bold and feared. Of course, he was also told that he would make a huge load of money. Now 36, Ali is somewhat filled with regrets and wishing it were possible to turn back the hands of the clock. Sitting in the serene evening of last Thursday in Bankin Kogi at the bank of River Benue in Yola after a Herculean arrangement to get him to talk, he shared his story with our correspondent. Ali revealed that the rich and the powerful, both in business and politics hit the hay with him. Excerpts…

How did you become a gay?

A woman my friend introduced to me lured me into it. The woman linked me up with some men in business and in politics. The first man I was introduced to told me that having anal sex would fetch me good fortune and I would be bold to challenge anybody no matter his social status. He said that if I wanted to be rich and be likable, I should join the club of gays. He said that I would meet influential people and they would be attracted to me. Also, I was told that if I ask for anything, without hesitation, my demands would be obliged. He said whenever I speak, I would be feared and my wish would obeyed. That was six years ago. He made love to me during political campaigns and gave me N150,000. I bought a parcel of land with that money but later sold it.

How old are you now and what has been your experience?

I am 36 years old. As I said earlier, I have been in this business (anal sex act) for six years. But all that I was promised did not come to pass. The business has robbed me of my senses and personality. Big men patronize us, but the business is not worth it. The same big men that patronize and give us big money, somehow through diabolical means, snatch the same money from us. They make love to us and give us big money but we never really benefit from the money. I have often regretted being a gay but I cannot help it. I sometimes ask myself what are the benefits derivable from this act? Nothing at all! My earlier plan was that I would work as a gay, get huge amount of money and settle down with a beautiful wife. But I was unable to use the proceeds to do anything worthwhile or live a comfortable life. But that has not come to be after all. I have gained over N9 million as proceeds from this act but cannot account for it. The wealthy in the society only use us as mistresses and abandon us at the end. Although some of us are being courted by powerful men in the society, but they discard us like worthless rag in the long run after satisfying themselves.

You said you were told that homosexual sex would make you bold. Are you now bold and feared by people?

Yes, for the first two years, I was feared and respected. But I do not enjoy such power again.

Why is that so?

Honestly, I don’t know why.

Before you were introduced to the homosexual act, did you have affection for women?

Yes.

Do you still have affection for women now?

No. I used to have affection for women or young girls, but I no longer have such feelings and this is disturbing me seriously. It is disturbing because no matter how beautiful a girl is I cannot have feeling of love for her nor make love advances to her. She won’t be appealing to me. I regret becoming a homosexual. I found myself in a precarious situation because my colleagues might kill me if I dared to leave the business. We are expected to stick to the covenant we have all entered into.

Do you have a permanent partner?

I do not have a permanent partner because most of the people I have met did not want to maintain a permanent relationship, which would entail paying for my domestic needs and being responsible for my medical bills on certain ailments I could contract as a result of our participation in this gay sex. In fact, I was betrothed to a man in Yobe who eventually abandoned me. After that experience I decided not to have a permanent partner.

Who are you regular with?

Please skip that I cannot tell you. This is because most of our clients are big men in the society and mentioning their names will put my life in danger. My clients are businessmen and politicians. I don’t want to mention their names.

Please in confidence tell me about some of them.

Forget that. Please skip this question. If you don’t skip that I will not talk with you again. (Then he beckoned on the person that facilitated the interview and said to him, go with your friend. I can no longer discuss with him.)

Would you not regard what you are engaged in as prostitution?

(Getting angry now and frantically calling the person that facilitated the interview) frantically)

Tell your friend to leave me alone. What I do is not prostitution. Call it whatever name you like, it is a business as I am not here as a prostitute. It is people like you who embarrass and ridicule us, calling us all sorts of names and giving this business a bad name.

(He later calmed down and agreed to continue with the discussion after much pleading.)

Where are your clients?

They are from across the country but mostly in Kano, Yobe, Maiduguri, Bauchi, Gombe and Sokoto.

You said earlier your first client gave you N150,000. Is that what you get paid every time?

Each client at the local level in Yola pays between N10,000 and N12,000 per sex session. We don’t charge clients that are wealthy. We don’t charge the politicians because they are always ready to pay more than we ordinarily would have charged. A politician or a businessman can pay from N150,000 to N200,000 per sex session. The elite know what they derive from us sexually, which is not known to us.

Do you know that government has banned this your business? Government has enacted a law forbidding same-sex marriage and relationships?

I learnt so, but I am not sure.

Do you have health-related issue as a result of this business?

I don’t know until I see a doctor. We have, however, lost two persons who died as a result of the gay practice.

How did they die, please tell me?

They just took ill. They had health problems and they didn’t survive.

Are you going to stop the practice?

I actually want to stop, but I cannot stop because I will be killed by my colleagues for not complying with the covenant entered into not to disclose this activity to anybody. Probably, I have been hypnotized. I cannot tell.

Do you have an association?

No, we don’t have here, but the elite in some states may have association. We do not do this business in the open, so we cannot have an association.

Do your family members know you are gay?

My mother got to know about what I’m doing two years ago, but my father died 12 years ago before I started this business. It is only my mother that knows this but I have kept on denying. My mother was said to have cursed me after learning about this, but I don’t know if the curse is working on me or not.

Do you do the act on a bed or mattress?

That is not your business.

What religion do you practice?

That is not your business, please.

How will you feel if you are caught in this act?

I will not allow myself to be caught unless someone reports me to Civil Defence or the police SOURCE

Why would a lady dress this way? The unexpected could happen. It is so shameful that our today ladies have lost it all when it comes to dressing- they now prefer to dress unclad in the name of being trendy, happening, hot, sexy and classy. Please be decent. It could save you from rape and who knows might attract the right man for marriage. The way you dress is the way you are addressed

Man, 24, Bags 5-year Jail Term For Unlawful Assault

For Unlawful Assault

Agency Report

— January 28, 2014

An Ikorodu Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday sentenced one Obafemi Samuel, 24, to five years imprisonment for inflicting injury on Mr Umoru Yahu with a broken bottle.
The accused, who resides at Itaoluwo road, Ikorodu, pleaded guilty to the one-count charge of unlawful assault.
Magistrate B.A. Sonuga,said that the prosecutor had been able to prove the charges against the accused beyond reasonable doubt.
Sonuga said that the sentence was without a fine option, adding that it would commence from the day Samuel was put in custody earlier this month.
Earlier, the Prosecutor, Sgt. Iyabo Johnson, told the court that Samuel, and others now at large, faced a charge of unlawful assault.
She said that Samuel and his colleagues assaulted Yahu by stabbing him on his back with a broken bottle.

Espanyol goalkeeper Kiko Casilla has reportedly emerged as a transfer target for Barcelona and Real Madrid.

The 27-year-old, who started his youth career at Real Madrid, moved to Espanyol in 2008 and has since established himself as one of the best stoppers in La Liga.

According to Marca, Los Blancos are keen to re-sign the Spaniard with uncertainty over the long-term futures of Diego Lopez and Iker Casillas.

Barcelona have also been linked with Casilla as they prepare for life after Victor Valdes and Jose Pinto, who are both expected to leave the Camp Nou this summer

Chelsea winger Eden Hazard believes that he is capable of matching Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi after challenging himself to become the world's best player.

The Belgian has taken his fledgling career to new heights this year under the management of Jose Mourinho, scoring 11 goals in 30 games across four competitions.

While he acknowledges that he has some way to go yet, Hazard feels that he has the ability to reach the same level as Real Madrid's Ronaldo and Barcelona's Messi, who have won the last six Ballon d'Or awards between them, if he continues to develop as he has under Mourinho's guidance.

"Of course I want to be the best in the world," he told Het Laatste Nieuws. "Previously I was more worried about the game itself: football was just a game for me, I wanted to amuse myself and didn't bother what the people thought about me.

"But since I'm here at Chelsea, I've become more aware of my qualities, I guess. Before I knew I was a good player, but not one of the better players in the world. I've matured. On the pitch, I haven't changed much. I'm still the same, but I realised that I'll have to perform consistently, game in, game out.

"Now I realise that I can compete with Messi and Ronaldo in the near future, if I put in some more effort. I don't know if I will ever reach their level. It'll be hard, they have incredible stats, but I accept the challenge."

Hazard joined Chelsea from French outfit Lille in a £32m deal in the summer of 2012.

According to those who know, one of the best actresses Nigeria has ever had, Liz Benson-Emeya, is set to make a full comeback to Nollywood after taking a well-deserved break that lasted over 15 years.
The veteran actress who was undoubtedly the queen of the movie industry in the 90s and early 2000s, we hear, is set to appear in her first movie in over a decade as plans are underway by a very popular producer to drag her back into the make-belief world.
The Akwa Ibom-born actress who is now an evangelist, lost her first husband, Samuel Gabriel Etim, in her mid-20s, and later got married to Bishop Great Emeya in 2009 of the Rainbow Christian Assembly in Warri, Delta State, a church she is currently running with her second husband.
Reliable sources reveal that the movie is almost set to drop and the veteran star who featured in hundreds of movies including Evil Men 1 and 2, Shame, Conspiracy, Izaga, Burden, Stolen Child, Faces, Dead End, Tycoon, Glamour Girls, Body of Vengeance, and a host of others, will show that she still has what it takes when it comes to role interpretation.

But one thing many people have noticed is the striking resemblance between her and her mother.
They could actually pass for sisters with their playful poses and many have debated about who is prettier between the two.
Though Nadia is younger, the mother exudes a mature, rounded and well developed beauty.

Dangerous Mistakes Men Make In Bed (really lenghty but life saver)

Dangerous Mistakes Men Make In Bed (really lenghty but life saver)

 

Mistake 1. Thinking She is Having Orgasms When She Isn’t

You may think that your lover is having multiple orgasms (or even AN orgasm) when she is not. She may make a bunch of noises, get really wet, and even TELL YOU she is cumming. But is she really? Grab a Cosmopolitan sometime and look at how many articles and comments on faking orgasms. I’m not saying that YOUR GIRL is faking orgasms EVERY TIME but… chances are there have been a few episodes of love making where she was CRAVING something other than what you were doing.

When this happens women just want it to be over and encourage you to cum. It doesn’t mean you are awful in bed; just that being a mind-blowing lover EVERY TIME takes some specialized knowledge. If you are giving your girl orgasms (and absolutely 100% sure of it) then congratulations! You’re one of the few guys who is ACTUALLY pleasing a woman REALLY WELL. But if you’re not, it is crucial that you learn how…

Mistake #2) Not Giving Her a Variety of Sexual Experiences

A lot of guys who are new to sex – or are used to having sex with the same woman – tend to forget that women want different KINDS of sexual EXPERIENCES. You might think that changing positions a few times and varying the speed of your thrusting is a different type of sex. But it is not. Women thrive on emotions. Sometimes they want to be taken, sometimes they want it hard, and sometimes they want to make love. If you are NOT talking during sex and creating a strong emotional experience for her she CAN’T be totally fulfilled. Women want strong emotional experiences in bed.

Let’s look at an example.

Women love bad boys because of the emotions that a bad boy inspires in them. It is why when women cheat it is often with a “bad boy.” However, you don’t need to be bad boy to create bad boy emotions within her in the bedroom. Just be a bad boy yourself by spanking her, talking dirty, and giving it to her good!

Women also love very suave, romantic types. Think of the cheesy paperback romance novels or current tv shows (Nip Tuck) they read with that long-haired douchebag on a horse (aka Fabio) on the cover.

Now, I’m not saying you should grow long hair, huge man boobs, and start riding a horse… but what you can do is mix up your lovemaking with some romantic sessions in which you are telling your girl how beautiful she is to you and how much you love her.
Get it?

The skinny is this:
You NEED to give your lover a variety of sexual experiences… and you can give them all to her YOURSELF… but you have to mix it up!

Mistake #3) Forgetting To Be A MAN

Ask any 100 women off of the street and 99 of them will tell you that they want a man that TAKES CONTROL. That said, she wants YOU to call the shots! Yes you read that right. Your girl DOES want you to take control in the bedroom, to flip her around and do her doggystyle without asking, and to do what YOU want!

Women are programmed to respond to strong, authoritative, confident men. It signifies that you are a protector, a leader, and a suitable mate. Sure, it’s ok to ask her if she is enjoying something… but this is mostly reserved to specific technique when you are “going down”. Save the talk about actual positions she liked for AFTER you are done.

Now don’t get me wrong – you are not making her a slave here but rather leading with authority and masculine strength. Once you start doing this you will be able to do many things with her in the bedroom that she earlier would not do. Many guys often think she is just uptight and her not being sexual if she doesn’t want to do something… when in reality she just needs you to be a man and guide her with your strength. You’ll be amazed at just how powerfully she responds!

Mistake #4) Thinking Sex Isn’t That Important To Her

If you want to know how much women LOVE sex… just think about how loudly they scream in the bedroom when they are getting it good! You won’t ever hear a guy screaming like that! You might THINK that your sex drive is much higher than your girls because YOU are usually the one initiating sex with her. But…

As hard as it is to swallow, recognize that if your girl doesn’t want to have sex it is NOT because she doesn’t want to. Unfortunately, it’s probably because you just aren’t getting her off. Fortunately this is an easy fix, and in a moment we’ll talk about how to do it…

Mistake #5) Being Silent/Emotionless in Bed

You may think that it is “cheesy” or “creepy” to talk romantically or dirty in bed. (you may think its weird to talk at all in bed) However, women HATE silent, mechanical sex. Why? Let’s hit this again my friend: Women THRIVE one emotion. Dirty talk or romantic talk are EXCELLENT at giving your girl STRONG EMOTIONS in bed.

And strong emotions = STRONG ORGASMS.

Never think that it is solely your physical parts or motions you are making that get your girl off. The most POWERFUL FEMALE ORGASMS are triggered by her mind, not by her physical body. Unlock her mind through dirty talk, romantic talk, and emotional talk WHILE having sex and your girl will experience the strongest orgasms of her life.



Mistake #6) Trading Dinners/Flowers/etc To Get Sex From Her

Many men mistakenly think that women aren’t interested in sex (we already discussed how this is incorrect thinking) and that they have to “trade something” with their girl for sex. This is why you see so many guys trying to have sex with their girl by first taking her out to a nice dinner or buying her gifts. While doing nice things for your girl is awesome, it should NEVER be with the intention of GETTING SEX. When you have to trade something to get sex from your girl realize that this is PROOF that you are not good enough in bed. It is proof that she does not like sex with you since in order to DO IT you have to give her something in exchange.

When you are sexually satisfying your girl you will not have to trade ANYTHING for sex but your girl will often sponateously text you sexy messages, buy YOU a small gift, or begin initiating sex constantly. Just wait and see!

Mistake #7) Not Giving Her Enough “Foreplay”

If you still think of “foreplay” as the activity before sex you need a quick mindset adjustment to change how much time you spend on foreplay. Here’s a hint: Women consider foreplay as PART of the sex. NOT as a separate thing!

Here’s why:
While a man is not capable of having a foreplay orgasm AND another orgasm right away when he penetrates his girl, WOMEN CAN! Imagine if you could have orgasms during foreplay AND never lose your erection even the slightest and keep having orgasms as you penetrated your girl. You’d want to spend A LOT of time in foreplay too, right?

Well your girl CAN have foreplay orgasms AND penetration orgasms so she DOES want to spend a lot of time in foreplay. As she should!

As a rule of thumb, spend at least the same amount of time on foreplay as penetration and you can always spend EVEN MORE time in foreplay. You can never get her too turned on and it will only make the penetration better when you are finally inside of her.

Mistake #8) Not Lasting Long Enough

This mistake is well known and very simple, but no list of mistakes in the bedroom would be complete without it. But while all guys know they need to last long… they don’t necessarily know HOW LONG that is! Well, after talking to hundreds of women about the subject, I’ve discovered that if you can last at least 10 minutes, most women will be plenty happy with that.

Sure, they might be even happier if you are up for a “round 2″ after a break in the action… but if you can last for 10 minutes in the first round, then trust me, you are fine!

Mistake #9) Mistaking Her Moody-ness For NORMAL Behavior

It’s no secret that women are a LOT moodier than us men. But if you’re in a relationship with a woman and she seems to keep getting more and more moody over time… this is often because she isn’t getting what she needs in the bedroom.

FACT.
As we talked about before… while women aren’t usually as sexually aggressive as men, they do love and NEED sex just as much!
But here’s the thing… if you’re not giving her orgasms… then sex does her no good! Can you imagine jerking off but you could NEVER orgasm? You’d begin to enjoy it less and less each time. Eventually you’d get so frustrated by the inabiliity to “finish” that it was just easier to avoid it COMPLETELY!

Sooo…

If you can’t give her orgasms why WOULD she want to have sex with you?
The answer:
She won’t.

If your girl is not wanting to have sex with you as much as you want then this is EXACTLY what has happened for her. In the beggining, she may have tolerated sex because she was really into you. Now that you have been together for a long time and sex isn’t satisfying for her it is more fulfilling to get herself off when you’re not around. This leads to only having sex with you on special occasions… or when she feels obligated (like if a guy bought her a fancy dinner or some sort of gift.)

If you recognize any of these signs it’s time to step up your sex game NOW before the sex drought gets even worse.
And when you do, you’ll discover that when you are completely rocking her world in bed, not only is she in a better mood on a day-to-day basis… but SHE’LL start initiating sex with YOU!

A close friend of mine who is some what of a love-making expert himself told me something that I didnt’ believe at the time… but I now KNOW to be 100% true: IF YOU ARE GIVING HER THE BEST OF HER LIFE SHE WON’T CARE IF YOU ARE HOMELESS LIVING IN A CARDBOARD BOX… AS LONG AS YOU CAN HAVE SEX IN IT!

When I heard this I thought he was totally full of it… but as my own lovemaking skills improved and then I heard about the success other guys were having, I realized this is completely true. Women are biologically “made” to be child bearers and select the highest value man to have a child with. Don’t you think that the ability to give amazing sex is one of the highest values a man can have?

Especially since so few men actually are REALLY GOOD.
If your girlfriend or wife is often starting arguments, not wanting sex, or acting “distant” in some way it is time to stop blaming her. Re-examine your sexual ability because the real culprit is inadequate sexual pleasure.

Mistake #10) Not Getting Help

Top performers in any aspect of life realize that MASTERY is a journey not a destination. Top athletes don’t all-of-a-sudden stop practicing. Millionaire business men don’t suddenly neglect their businesses and expect it to keep shuttling cash into their pockets. And guess what… sex is no different.

To be an amazing lover you can’t ever be blinded by sexual arrogance. Never think that you know EVERYTHING. You may know A LOT but there are ALWAYS new tricks or tips to get you to the next level.

What you should know that every Woman hates During Sex

 What you should know that every Woman hates During Sex  

Asking for permission


There's nothing sexy about a man who asks for permission to have sex with his woman. A good lover knows how to let her know he's in the mood and turn her on without ever having to ask. Something as simple as an intense look or a certain touch is a much better way of going about it.


Predictability

If you've been together for a while, this can definitely be a problem. Part of the reason why things were so hot between you and your woman when you first got together was because you didn't know what to expect. If you want to maintain a similar level of excitement with your woman months or even years down the road, you have to keep it fresh.

Don't be afraid to try new things that you'll both enjoy; never let it get to a point where she can anticipate your every move. For instance, if you usually spend five minutes on foreplay, spend 15 minutes next time and tease her mercilessly. She won't know what hit her. And soon, neither will you.


Mechanical sex

Most women will agree that sex without passion is quite dull; no woman wants to be treated like a blow-up doll -- well, maybe occasionally. It doesn't mean that every sexual encounter has to be mind-blowing, it's just that you should never ignore the fact that, no matter how cool she is, she's still a woman who would like nothing more than to be treated as such. So be the lover of her dreams and make love to her at least once in a while.

Not going the extra mile


Although many women -- as well as men -- feel that they must be content with whatever sexual act they engage in with their partners, the truth is that they will eventually tire of a bare-bones routine. So, if you want to prevent her from ever tiring of you, you must put in a little extra effort every once in a while.

Here comes the dreaded "R" word. You guessed it: romance. The fact that most women don't even expect this at this point in the devolution of dating is to your great advantage because if you are romantic every once in a while, she'll wonder what distant planet you hail from and be all over you

For instance, leave her love notes describing what you'd like her to do to you, what you'd like to do to her, and what she should slip into or out of while she anxiously awaits your return. Make her a romantic dinner for two, play some mood music, and seduce her. Write her a song and make her melt. Make it about pleasing her next time and not only will she not be bored, she may just do anything to please you in return.


Same location

If your woman has memorized the cracks in your bedroom ceiling, you're in trouble. But don't worry, a simple change of location can fix this situation. Take it to the shower, the kitchen table, your car, a secluded beach, the woods... the possibilities are endless. Use your imagination and try not to get caught.


Too vocal or not vocal enough

Excessive grunting or repeating certain words can be just as tiresome as making no noise at all. So try to find a comfortable medium that lets her know you're enjoying yourself without letting the whole neighborhood know as well. The right choice of words can also be a turn-on for many women, and no, it doesn't necessarily have to be the three little ones that you dread.

Telling her that what she's doing feels amazing, that she looks hot, or what you'd like to do to her or have her do to you will go a long way in preventing the boredom from setting in.

Never experimenting

If you've been with your woman for a while, and want to keep each other turned on, you had better try some new positions, spill your fantasies, engage in role playing, and anything else that will serve to spice things up, or you risk breaking up out of sheer bedroom boredom.

Pour yourselves a glass of wine or two, and talk about what turns you on, and you may just end up fulfilling these fantasies sooner than you think.

Aminu Wali is Nigeria’s Ambassador to China. In this interview, he says the defection of the Kano State Governor Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso and other prominent members of the PDP to the opposition APC is not a stumbling block to PDP’s victory in the 2015 general elections in the state. He also speaks on other issues in the polity. Excerpts:

We heard that you were recently seen at the presidential villa together with former Kano State governor Mallam Ibrahim Shekarau who is said to be planning to join your party. How far have you people gone in getting him to your party?
There is no truth in that. I have not seen Shekarau since the last time I was in his house when we paid a courtesy call on him. I don’t know where the story came from, therefore whoever is saying that is just saying it out of his imagination.
But why the rumours in the state?
I think it is because of our visits to him. You know we the stakeholders and our caretaker committee in Kano went to him. We do not have any arrangement; Shekarau belongs to the APC as far as I know and there is a very cordial relationship and good understanding between us. We believe in democracy both ourselves and him, there is no special arrangement between us as a party or me as a person. We have only engaged in alignment and realignment, we have gone out on recruitment drive and obviously a lot of ANPP members in APC who are uncomfortable with the current situation in their present party have indicated their willingness to join us in the PDP.
People are saying that the defection of governor Kwankwaso has to a large extent punctured the popularity of PDP in Kano State and that it will negatively affect the party come 2015…
I can assure you that we are waxing stronger and stronger. In fact, PDP is stronger now than before when Kwankwaso was with us. Go round and ask the common party members or people on the street who are neither PDP nor ANPP, they will tell you that they are more comfortable than before and a lot of people are leaving the APC for PDP. Thank God that the mismanagement is going to be over. In fact, it is over. We are going to take the party back to the people and as a founding member of the PDP I know exactly what the people of the state want. What we are trying to do in Kano is to take the party that belongs to the people back to the people and this is exactly what we are trying to do now.
Are you happy now that Kwankwaso has left the PDP?
It is not a matter of being happy or unhappy because politics is a matter of choice, for whatever reason when somebody decides to leave, that is his own choice and I cannot quarrel with that person asking him why did you leave? Therefore, if he wishes to leave then I wish him good luck and I have no any grudges against him for leaving.
You played a critical role in constituting caretaker committee for Kano PDP, but it’s like the Kafayo’s led committee is not doing well because people are complaining that they are not feeling its impact. What is happening?
You see there is a difference between a caretaker committee and a properly constituted leadership; a caretaker is a transitional thing that is trying to build the structure of the party upon which further activities will be laid. So far, we have been on that, trying to raise a formidable structure for the party in the state.
If Kwankwaso decides to return to the PDP, will he be accepted?
Why not? As long as he is willing to abide by the party’s constitution which clearly spells out that the party belongs to all of us and also spells out the need for internal democracy, he is very much welcome, after all, he had been our member. But a situation where one is denied his own right and few selected people dictate for the party, we will not accept that.
It is said that the 2015 general election are going to be held in January but still the Kano PDP caretaker committee seems to be dragging its feet. Don’t you think this will affect your party’s performance in the state?
It will not affect us per say, because we have the membership already in place even though Kwankwaso has gone he has not gone with the members of the PDP but with members of Kwankwasiyya. I can assure you within a month and a half we will have every structure in place. I am absolutely sure that the caretaker committee will be able to hold all elections; we will be able to meet up the time frame. We have been in this business for quite a long time and to organize an election for the various wards and local government areas up to the state level would not require more than a month and seven days.
Your party is in crisis at the national level due to President Jonathan’s reelection bid in 2015. Don’t you think you will find it difficult selling him to the North?
We are very strong on ground in this part of the country and I have no doubt that the PDP will win in 2015 all over the country. As a party man, founding member of the party and member of every decision making body that exists in the party whoever my party presents as a candidate that person will be the person that I will sell.
Therefore as far as I am concerned, the PDP will win, agreed we have had our headache but by the time the elections approach all these problems would have been over, we will go into the elections united and solid.
Is it possible to overcome your party’s challenges when you are still losing members to the APC at the state and national levels including legislators?
Those house members that defected, if they had gone back to their people to consult them on their decision to leave, they would have told them otherwise. As I speak with you, I know of some members who are already in trouble with their constituents over their defection. I am waiting because I believe 2015 will come with a lot of surprises because those that have defected will likely not return to their seats as honourable members.
You have been Nigerian ambassador to China for quite some time now. What are your achievements?
I was able to achieve the visit of President Jonathan to China which brought the two countries together and is strengthening the existing bilateral relationship between the two countries. During my tenure, the Zungeru hydropower plant came to fruition and I am also trying to see that Mambila happen during my tenure which has been in limbo for the past 30 years. There is also the Abuja Kaduna rail line and the Abuja light train among other things going on during my time
