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.

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".
Violence is not uncommon in soccer and other sports, but do you thing this Saad guy will go free? Send us your thoughts below.

Williams, the top seed, used just 49 minutes to defeat Chanelle Scheepers of South Africa 6-1, 6-1 while No.5 seed Sharapova cruised past Timea Bacsinszky in exactly an hour, reports Xinhua.
On her first outing since a shock French Open exit to Garbine Muguruza, Williams impressed during a quick-fire win over Anna Tatishvili in the first round at the All England Club.
When facing her next opponent, Scheepers, the American was again in complete control throughout, breaking twice to take the first set. After that Williams never looked back.
“I’m always the favourite,” Williams acknowledged afterwards.
“It’s been that way for the last three years and maybe years before that. So it can create pressure. But it’s okay – I’d rather it was that way.”
“I’ve been coming here for over decade and the crowd is always great and it’s so great to see all my fans here. I love it!”
In the third round, Williams takes on Alize Cornet, who won a hard-fought battle with Petra Cetkovska at 6-4, 5-7, 6-3.
Cornet and Williams last met in Dubai, with the former producing one of the best performances of her career to triumph in straight sets.
Bacsinszky, Sharapova’s second round’s rival, has two top 10 wins under her belt, winning three Wimbledon qualifying matches and her first-round match in straight sets.
After opening the match with a hold, Sharapova broke Bacsinszky at love, one of three breaks she converted during a comfortable first set win.
The second set was more of the same, with Sharapova breaking to go up 3-1 and not losing another game in her 6-2, 6-1 victory.
Sharapova, who now has 40 Wimbledon match wins to her name, has surrendered just four games through two matches.
“The first couple of matches are really crucial in terms of working on so many things as a grass court player and trying to make that transition from clay as quickly as possible,” Sharapova said.
“The grass is quite different from the practice courts. Once you get out there, you try to focus a little bit more on executing better and not letting your focus go. That has been important in the last couple of matches.”
