When will Nigerian leaders start thinking this creative?

Video: British girl filmed performing sex acts on 24 men for free drinks

A British girl was filmed performing sex acts on 24 men at a nightclub in Majorca's notorious party capital, Magaluf in Spain.

The 18 year old girl (pictured right), whose identity is being hidden, was told by the organizers during an event at a bar called Alex's Bar that she would win a 'holiday' if she participated in a game. But the prize turned out to be a £4 cocktail called 'Holiday' made from gin, vodka, peach schnapps, blackcurrant liqueur and fruit juice.

The girl was cheered on by the crowd as she went from one man to the other, asking them to take down their pants and performed the sex act. 
"The girl was being encouraged to drink more and more and was told she would win a 'holiday' if she took part in this game. Unfortunately the 'holiday' turned out to be the name of a cocktail. I feel sorry for her now. She must feel awful.' Someone who witnessed the incident told The Sun
A 2-minute footage, which also showed several holidaymakers taking photos of the act with their phones, was later posted online, causing outrage. The police has launched an inquiry into the incident. Watch the video after the cut...

Boko Haram: Tinubu Fires Back At PDP and Obanikoro

National leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, and former Lagos State Governor Asiwaju Bola Tinubu has faulted the claims of the PDP and the Minister of State for Defence, Musiliu Obanikoro, stressing that the allegation by the junior minister that it was him (Tinubu) and his friends in the opposition that created the Boko Haram sect is unreasonable.

Specifically, Tinubu who described the Obanikoro’s allegation as a political Boko Haram, which the PDP was the chief architect, noted that the PDP and the minister were, by the said allegation, establishing grounds for another round of clamping down on the opposition, militarising cities in the country, as well as flouting the democratic rights of citizens with impunity.
The APC leader's statement said, “Obanikoro’s allegation that Tinubu and his friends in the opposition created Boko Haram is both fallacious and untenable. It is the kind of fable that can only come out of the mouth of someone who is delusional; one whose intoxication with power is not in doubt”.

Tinubu, who spoke through his Media Adviser, Sunday Dare, challenged the PDP government to “step forward and explain to Nigerians why the over 200 girls kidnapped in Chibok are yet to be rescued”, adding that “they should explain why the Boko Haram insurgency continues unabated despite billions that is being voted for security."

Tinubu alleged that “the defence budget to fight Boko Haram and terrorism has become a conduit pipe for the ruling party, PDP, just as the likes of Obanikoro continue to use Boko Haram as a tool of blackmail against the opposition. This time, just like it failed in the past, it will not stick. It will not stand”.

Accusing the PDP and Obanikoro of aiding and abetting Boko Haram, Tinubu said it is the PDP government in which Obanikoro is an active and pliable agent that is perpetrating the insurgency for pecuniary benefits.

Handsome felon, Jeremy Meeks, lands modeling contract


30 year old Jeremy Meeks, the gorgeous felon who became an internet sensation after his mug-shot was posted on the Stockton police Facebook page, has secured an gent who is negotiating modeling contracts for him even though he is still in jail in California facing a felony weapons charge.
Popular Hollywood agent, Gina Rodriguez, has signed Jeremy as a client and he joins her other notorious celeb clients including Teen Mom star Farrah Abraham, Donald Sterling's former mistress V. Stiviano and 'Octomom' Nadya Suleman.
"Jeremy has an amazing look and has received international attention which I feel can only help him flourish in the entertainment industry. He could make somewhere between $3,000 to $100,000 per month through endorsements and modeling. We're also speaking with several production companies about following Jeremy's foray into the entertainment industry. I believe this can be a positive change for Jeremy and his family" Rodriguez told ABC News.
Meeks, who is being held on 11 felony counts that include street gang membership and possession of firearms, remains behind bars on $1.1 million bail. I hope he gets a second chance.

According to the Livonia Police Lieutenant, Saad punched the unnamed referee in the head after the referee indicated he planned to eject the 36-year-old Dearborn resident from a game on Sunday at Mies Park.
An opposing player, Joseph Cosenza told Fox 2 News that Saad had left the park by the time police arrived. "He got away, took off with one of his buddies, jumped in their car. ... A couple of our players were able to take pictures of the car and the license plate after they took off. But unfortunately, the cops found the car and the driver".

Omeruo has been dependable for Nigeria at the World Cup according to Chelsea officials

Chelsea pleased with Omeruo progress - adviser


Chelsea have so far been pleased with the performance of Nigeria defender Kenneth Omeruo at the World Cup in Brazil, his adviser has told AfricanFootball.com

Omeruo, a full international only last year, has been one of the ever-presents as Nigeria made it past the first round of the World Cup for only the third time in their history.

And the player’s adviser, Chika Akujobi has told AfricanFootball.com that the central defender’s stocks have appreciated with his London club, who only recently gave him a new, three-year contract.

“So far Chelsea officials are very positive and happy with Kenneth’s development,” Akujobi told AfricanFootball.com

“They've not come to a conclusion as the World Cup is still going on in Brazil, but he's going with them on pre-season training, which has been scheduled for Papendal training complex in Holland. There they will play a few friendly matches against teams like Vitesse Arnhem.

“But the way things are going, he will be in (Jose) Mourinho’s plans for the new season with a loan option to any of the premier league clubs in England. Let's wait and see.”

He held his own against Manchester City striker Edin Dzeko, when Nigeria pipped Bosnia-Herzegovina and he also posted a decent shift when he came face-to-face with an Argentina strike force that included Lionel Messi, Gonzalo Higuain, Angel di Maria and Sergio Aguero on Wednesday.

Omeruo was on loan at English Championship side Middlesbrough last season, while he also played on loan for Dutch club ADO Den Haag the previous season.

How Nigerian Soldiers Killed A Redeemed Church Pastor

Many people were injured while a pastor of the Redeemed Christian Church of God was shot dead by soldiers the in Opuraja community of Okpe Local Government Area in Delta State on Tuesday.

The incident occurred when the soldiers, led by a Captain, arrived in two Hilux vans to conduct investigation in the community; however, they were mobbed by the villagers, who misconstrued their motive. As a result shots were fired into the air to scare off the surging villagers.
According to eyewitnesses: “I saw the soldiers, they came to the community, asking for the chairman of the community and vigilante leader. They told them that there was robbery incident on Warri/Sapele expressway and asked them to reveal the identity of the person who owns the farm from which the bandits collected the wood they used to barricade the road. 
“They told the soldiers that none of the community people owns farm there, but the military men accused them of not doing their job effectively. We saw the soldiers carry them away in their Hilux van and drove to the expressway, where they tied them against their vehicles until it was 6am. 
“The youths mobilised and went to the scene where the community leaders were tied and when the army saw the crowd approaching, they started shooting indiscriminately...
“A group of soldiers in another Hilux van apparently heard the gunshots and rushed to the scene, that was how the pastor, who was standing by was shot and he died immediately.”

Confirming the report, the Orodje of Okpe kingdom, HRM, Mujakperuo Orhue 1, a retired army officer, said he is disappointment over the incident, adding that the soldiers should not have fired at unarmed citizens.

He was said to have waded into the matter to calm frayed nerves after the fracas.

A former Minister of Information, Prof. Sam Oyovbaire, who is from the community, also confirmed that one person was killed and some others were injured.
The late pastor was married with four children. So sad!
