'Nigeria’s government acting like children!' - READ Wole Soyinka interview with CNN's Amanpour!

Posted: 07 May 2014 10:41 AM PDT


Nobel Laureate, Prof Wole Soyinka had a frank interview with Amanpour on CNN yesterday and he had a lot to say!
 

On Boko Haram and Goodluck Jonathan,  
"This is a government which is not only in denial mentally, but in denial about certain obvious steps to take... It's one of those rather child-like situations that if you shut your eyes, if you don't exhibit the tactile evidence of the missing humanity here, that somehow the problem will go away."  On the dramatic display of Patience Jonathan on tv (where she cried et al)  
"Please, I do not want to say anything about that woman who calls herself the First Lady of Nigeria. No, I wont."
 

When asked him if he believes that President Jonathan is in denial 
 "It's not only he. It's the advisers around him. It's a certain section of the nation, some of whom enjoy for various reasons a nation in a state of chaos. They profit by it, and in fact some of them are guilty of provoking the situation. The person who has no excuse is the president of the nation.It is not just a Nigerian problem. I'm calling for the international community, the United Nations – this is a problem. This is a global problem."

#BringBackOurGirls! New York Times Calls 'Our-Dear' Goodluck Jonathan a "slow president"

Posted: 07 May 2014 10:28 AM PDT


In a new editorial by Newyork Times centered around Boko haram and the abducted girls, President Goodluck Jonathan has been described as a slow President, leading a corrupt government that cannot ensure the security of Nigerians. Read the short but interesting article below: 
Three weeks after their horrifying abduction in Nigeria, 276 of the more than 300 girls who were taken from a school by armed militants are still missing, possibly sold into slavery or married off. Nigerian security forces apparently do not know where the girls are and the country's president, Goodluck Jonathan, has been shockingly slow and inept at addressing this monstrous crime.

On Tuesday, the United Nations Children's Fund said Boko Haram, the ruthless Islamist group that claimed responsibility for the kidnappings, abducted more young girls from their homes in the same part of the country in the northeast over the weekend. The group, whose name roughly means "Western education is a sin," has waged war against Nigeria for five years. Its goal is to destabilize and ultimately overthrow the government. The group's leader, Abubakar Shekau, said in a video released on Monday, "I abducted your girls. I will sell them in the market, by Allah."

This is not the first time Boko Haram has attacked students, killing young men and kidnapping young women. The security situation in Northeast Nigeria has steadily deteriorated. In the first three months of this year, attacks by Boko Haram and reprisals by government security forces have killed at least 1,500 people, more than half of them civilians, according to Amnesty International. Until now, there has been little response to the violence, either in Nigeria or internationally. But the kidnapping of so many young girls, ages 12 to 15, has triggered outrage and ignited a rare antigovernment protest movement in Nigeria.

On Sunday, after weeks of silence, Mr. Jonathan admitted that "this is a trying time for our country," and he said that Nigerians were justified in their anger against the government and appealed for international help. The reaction of Mr. Jonathan's wife, Patience, was stunningly callous; according to state news media, she told one of the protest leaders, "You are playing games. Don't use schoolchildren and women for demonstrations again."

Boko Haram's claim that it follows Islamic teachings is nonsense. A pre-eminent Islamic theological institute, Al-Azhar in Egypt, denounced the abductions, saying it "completely contradicts the teachings of Islam and its tolerant principles." Although Boko Haram is believed to number no more than a few hundred men, Nigerian security forces have been unable to defeat them.

Mr. Jonathan, who leads a corrupt government that has little credibility, initially played down the group's threat and claimed security forces were in control. It wasn't until Sunday, more than two weeks after the kidnappings, that he called a meeting of government officials, including the leader of the girls' school, to discuss the incident. There is no doubt the intelligence and investigation help President Obama offered on Monday is needed.

The kidnappings occurred just as President Jonathan is about to hold the World Economic Forum on Africa, with 6,000 troops deployed for security. That show of force may keep the delegates safe, but Nigeria's deeply troubled government cannot protect its people, attract investment and lead the country to its full potential if it cannot contain a virulent insurgency.

Ooops! Is she that rude? SEE What Yvonne Okoro did to Iyanya!

Posted: 07 May 2014 08:06 AM PDT

bb (1)


It seems most Ghanaian actresses are up in arms against Nigerian singer, Iyanya Mbuk, over his love gone sour with Yvonne Nelson.

The latest actress to join the fray is Nigerian/Ghanaian actress, Yvonne Okoro, who gave Iyanya a very serious attitude at the just concluded Ghana Music Award, for having the effrontery to use and dump her colleague in what she believes was a very callous way.

According to an industry source, the Kukere master had a bad time at the Awards when he made attempts to dance with Yvonne Okoro while performing.

We gathered that after some awards were given out, it was Iyanya's turn to perform and while performing his hit song, Your Waist, he invited Yvonne Okoro to join him on stage and 'wind her waist'.

But to his surprise, the pretty and voluptuous actress declined and was heard whispering to close friends that if Iyanya should get close to her, she would give him a resounding slap.

She reportedly said:
 

Look at this fool. So he thinks Ghanaian actresses are playthings for him. Let him come close to me and I will land him a dirty slap.

As much as Iyanya kept urging her to join him, she declined and when the shame was becoming to much for him to bear, she reportedly got up reluctantly and joined him just for a few minutes and even at that, she did not spend up to two minutes before she went off the stage.

So much for hurting one's colleague.

TOO BAD! 25-Yr-Old Widow Gang-r*ped & to be flogged for having affair with Married Man! [PHOTO]

Posted: 07 May 2014 08:10 AM PDT

 


 
An Indonesian woman who was brutally gang-r*ped as a punishment for having an affair with a married man could be caned in public for breaking religious laws.

The unnamed widow was allegedly attacked last week when a gang of eight men broke into her home, tied her and her male companion up and accused the pair of conducting an illegal sexual relationship.

The woman, 25, was then r*ped by each of the men, who covered her and the man in sewage waste after the attack in Banda Aceh, the Jakarta Globe has reported.

They were then handed over to officials at the Sharia office, who discovered the woman had been assaulted during interogation.

Officials there have said the sexual assault would not be taken into consideration in determining the punishment for the religious crime that she was accused of committing.

Three of the attackers, including a 13-year-old boy, have been arrested so far by police, who are working to locate the five others.

"We want the couple to be caned because they violated the religious bylaw on sexual relations," Ibrahim Latif, the head of the Sharia office in the eastern town of Langsa, told the Globe.

"They have to be [caned] as a form of justice because the r*pists will also be processed, but in a criminal court," he added. "Besides, they've confessed to having sex on several previous occasions, even though the man is married and has five children."

Langsa Police chief Adj. Sr. Comr. Hariadi and the chief of detectives Adj. Comr. M. Firdaus have not yet commented on the issue.

Under the partial Sharia exercised in Aceh, the couple face up to nine strokes of the cane if the proposed punishment goes forward.

'I wish we'd killed more!' Couple smile & kiss as they get life sentence for killing s*x offender &wife [Photos]

Posted: 07 May 2014 07:30 AM PDT



Instead of being remorseful considering they won't see each other again, a couple in North Carolina who have been sentenced to consecutive life sentences after killing a registered s*x offender and his wife, smiled all through..
Jeremy Lee Moody and Christine Moody admitted to purposefully targeting and killing Marvin Parker, 59, and his wife Gretchen Dawn Parker, 51, and said that they chose their victims because he was a registered s*x offender.
They were unrepentant at the sentencing on Tuesday and even kissed after being sentenced to two consecutive life sentences each. Initially, Jeremy and Christine Moody apologized to the judge and asked for a 30-year sentence so they could see their children and grow old together.



But after Union County Judge Lee Alford handed down the maximum punishment, they showed how they really felt.Jeremy Moody shouted at Charles Parker's family as he walked out of court

See you perverts later,That's what child molesters get.They got exactly what they deserve,Had to do it over again, I'd kill more.'

Christine Moody said to reporters.

I think Jeremy and I would have done it again if given the opportunity,I have no regrets. Killing that pedophile was the best day of my life.'

Union County Sheriff David Taylor told the SPLC that Jeremy shot both of the victims while Christine slit the wife's throat after they told Parker and his wife exactly why they were going to kill them.
A surveillance camera on Parker's land caught them leaving, and deputies recognized Jeremy Moody from the word 'skinhead' tattooed on his neck and the 'Made in America' tattoo on the side of his head.


Lawyers said both defendants were s*xually abused as children and that made them want revenge against the type of people who hurt them.
They believed they had a divine assignment to kill all s*x offenders, said psychologist Harold Morgan, who analyzed Jeremy Moody.

Read this Very interesting Interview D'banj had with ThisDayStyle! [PHOTOS]

Posted: 07 May 2014 06:22 AM PDT


DBanjThisDayStyle_2_that1960chickdotcom


 
In a recent interview with ThisDay style, music star D'banj talked about his career, his growth and relationship status.
See excerpts below:

Tell us a little about your background and how you got into music?   
I went to Nigeria Military School, Zaria. I always thought I was going to be in the military just like my father but that didn't happen. But I definitely believe that's where all my energy is from. I lost my brother who was also in the military to a plane crash when I was still in secondary school and I think that's where everything changed for me musically. He died in 1994 and I was in school when it happened. I went home for his burial and when I got home, what I saw was that they laid down all his belongings on his bed in his room and the harmonica was one of the items I saw that i was drawn to. I took it back to school and started playing with it. No one taught me how to play the harmonica but the more I played, the better I became. So for me I think that's where the love for music grew.  I joined the choir and played every instrument I could lay my hands on. At every opportunity I got, I tried to express myself through music.                                       

 D'banj and former partner Don Jazzy in 2004

Then I left for the United Kingdom, when I got there I realized that I was more than just a singer and that I had the ability to entertain, so I started trying to study what it took to be an entertainer. It was there I met my friend and partner Don Jazzy and together, we found and built one of Africa's biggest and most successful record labels 'Mo'Hits Records'. We came back to Nigeria in 2004 and launched my first single 'Tongolo (What is the koko)'. 




When you started out your musical career, you adopted the stage name D'banj but over the years you have adopted a lot more names. What do you prefer to be called at the moment and why? 
People call me different things these days and I am open to them. Some people who know me personally call me Dapo (like my parents), people who have followed my career call me D'banj or Koko Master or Banga Lee and most recently, with my strong interest in agriculture, some people call me Koko farmer. I am open to all these names as long as they are positively called. I will always be called D'banj though because even my parents call me that, as D stands for Dapo and Banj my surname Oyebanjo.   



Every season and time I get a new name I use it. You can probably say I'm the only artiste with the most names. Eja Nla in 2012, which means big fish and I was given Banga Lee in 2013 stemming from Lee temple. 



 Did your parents oppose to this back then knowing that being a musician was really a lucrative career

rf
His parents

 In the beginning my parent opposed to it because they didn't think being a musician was a bankable career that could sustain me but later when they realized what I wanted to do, they gave me their support. As long as I was doing what I enjoyed they gave me their blessings. They supported me financially and with prayers. When I had my first show as an independent act in 2004 back in London, Hackney, I became the talk of town and my career took off. That's when they knew and realized how successful one could be doing music. 



 They continue to be my voice of reasoning and remind me to pray everyday and continue to steer me in the right direction. 



 How has living in Nigeria influenced you as a musician? Living in Nigeria has influenced us all in one way or another. I can proudly say that it has made me the man I am today. My culture, ethics and hustle has influenced my lyrics and music, my experiences here has been a big part of my music. From the onset, my music has always been about me being a Nigerian. It is a big influence in my music and will continue to be. 



 You parted ways with your partner and long time friend Don Jazzy, which wasn't pleasant news for many of your fans in Nigeria and around the world; can you tell us why you took such a decision? Any split or break up will affect anyone because you are used to a way of working and for me, it did. But I always look at the light at the end of the tunnel. It was after the split that I had my first global hit 'Oliver Twist'. It hit the top ten in the United Kingdom and also it was when other endorsements came through, such as the theme song for Africa Cup of Nation 'Top of the world'. I got to perform it in front of 92,000 people. Also I was made a GLO Ambassador and also an ambassador the Bank for Industry. But Don jazzy is one of Nigeria's most amazing producers and will continue to be so, I respect his work tremendously. He is also a long time friend and brother. 



 Has the split in any way affected your musical career or has it had a positive impact on the musician you are today? I don't believe it has affected my career in anyway. As you can see, D'banj is getting involved in many things such as the ONE Campaign by Bono; an ambassador for agriculture in Nigeria, my music is doing great too with my recent new video for one of the soundtracks for 'Half of a Yellow Sun'. My career going great as expected. This year we celebrate 10 years of D'banj in the entertainment industry. I'm thankful to God.  



What's the biggest lesson you have learned through it all? I have learned one simple lesson, 'Without God we are nothing'.  

  

 What will you say has been your biggest achievement and why? Everything I embark on is an achievement so I can't say what my biggest achievement is. But I have to say, Bono selecting me to work on the One Campaign is an achievement. Doing a soundtrack for 'Half of a Yellow Sun' which is the biggest movie right now is also an achievement for me. The minister of agriculture endorsing me as an ambassador for agriculture is an achievement. Being able to live and survive in this industry for 10 years is a great achievement. 



 You were signed on to Kanye West record label G.O.O.D Music, how did that happen and has this had any impact on your musical career internationally? Dbanj and Kanye West's at the Fashion Show Paris Fashion Week, March 2012 
 I met Kanye on my way out of Dubai. I had a concert there and after my show on my way out at the airport, an airhostess on my Emirates flight must have confused me for Kanye west. When I came down from the car with my entourage, she ran up to me with a plaque that read 'Mr Kanye West' and I saw it and said to her 'I'm not Mr Kanye West'. But I also knew he was coming to town, so I told my people to keep their eyes out for him and when they spotted him, my P.A Chuchu approached him and introduced himself and spoke to him about me. He invited us for five minutes. Five minutes became thirty minutes and as a sharp Naija boy, I had my headphones, my iPad and everything else ready for him to listen to our music. When he heard it, he liked it. He invited us to New York and said to make sure to pass through next time we came to the States. 



 So the next time I was in the States, I passed through New york to meet up with him and after about four days of trying to get hold of him, we received an email saying he would see us in the studio. We went and we were opportune to meet the whole crew. By the next day I met L.A Reid. It was such a great experience, not just for me but for everything I stand for, which is Africa Music. 



We have never had that kind of opportunity before, at least not in my generation. It was then that all eyes turned to African musicians and as we all know, people around the world love African music but I must say Kanye was the first to spot the uniqueness in African music that he made the world pay attention to our music. 



 Your song 'Oliver Twist' got massive airplay locally and internationally, what doors did the song open for you musically? It got people of different races and in different countries appreciating D'banj brand. It felt great that music was enjoyed across various countries and it made the world also pay more attention to African music and since then we can now see the doors have opened musically for Africans internationally. 



 What current project are you working on? My 10th year anniversary in the music industry, focusing on my Agricultural projects, the ONE Campaign, releasing some never-before-seen footage and releasing some new tracks/music.  



 You recently ventured into agriculture, what led to this move and what do you hope achieving this? Agriculture is the new cool. I am happy to be part of a venture that can change lives in our country and put food in the table of millions. I hope to influence more youths to garner an interest in this sector. It will change all of our lives. 



 You have been in a series of collaborations with international and local artistes, which will say has been your most memorable and why? I will say 'Endowed' with Snoop (Lion). I love a lot of my collaborations but I love Endowed with Snoop and Tony Montana with Naeto C. Endowed for me was a time in my career when I just thought we had done enough for the Nigerian music industry and African music on the map and I will say Endowed did just that. We flew to Los Angeles, did the video with snoop and it was a huge success. He is a living legend and I have all the respect for him. He calls me his nephew and I call him my uncle. As soon as the video was released, the whole world connected with it. If you were to pick a favourite song and music video from all your albums, which will you say has by far been the most successful? 'Olive Twist' if I must say. It's the most successful song and the video in Africa. It is not necessarily my personal favourite but it has been the most successful. It's been the most viewed video on YouTube by an African musician. It got about twenty six million views. It was the first African music to top the UK charts in eleven European countries. I have my own personal favourite but the most successful has to be Oliver twist.  





 What kind of music do you listen to when you are not making music? I listen to all genres of music. A lot of ladies out there will want to know this, is the Koko master/Eja Nla/ Banger Lee single? Yes I am!  



 It is rumoured, you are dating the daughter of a rich successful luxury brand owner, is this true? Rumours are rumours and they will always exist.  



 What are your favourite Nigerian and international songs right now respectively? I can't really mention five favourite songs right now because I might pick five now and remember one as soon as I pick the last song so it's really difficult to say. I love music.  



What will you say is important to know and have to become a successful artiste like yourself? Know your fans and know what they'll enjoy. Know your talent and stay true to it, yourself and your calling. Be hardworking. Be original and of course be patient but not stupid. It's good you value yourself so people will value you. 
 
Describe your personal style? My personal style is based on individuality. I create my own style. I will say I'm a trendsetter and always remember to 'Dress how you want to be addressed'.  



What is the most expensive luxury item you have ever purchased? I can't really remember because I buy what I like, I bought myself an Aston Martin, a Bentley and my jewelry. 



 Any last words for any budding musician who wants to attain international success? Continue to follow your dreams, apply your self and don't take no for an answer. Be real and of course believe in God.

Wow! See World's oldest prost*tut*s who have slept with over 355,000 men, advised women on how to keep their men

Posted: 07 May 2014 05:44 AM PDT

 

 

The world's oldest pr-stitu-tes Louise and Martine Fokkens both 71 have slept with 355,000 men
The sisters, who are famous for their trademark matching red clothes, first turned to pr*stitu-tion aged 20 after escaping violent relationships.

Now the pair, who retired last year, have revealed the secrets of keeping your man happy - both in bed and out - in an exclusive interview with MailOnline.Louise a mother of four said

    We were young and we made jokes and had respect for men.What I've learned about men is that when they [men] drink, it's not good, 'I have also learned that people need prostitutes - it is normal and we should respect it.'Men are born this way [in need of s*x]. There isn't a problem and it makes me mad when people don't have respect for what we do.'Every man wants something different and that's the real game - finding out what they want.'What about men who cheat on their wives with pr*stit-utes or other women?

    They want to be free.Their wives won't have s*x with them even if they love them.'If you really want to meet a man and keep him, you need to be yourself.Always be yourself. This is what we learned when we were little and it's true. But also you must have respect for other people and listen to other people.' We have to keep busy because we have no pension, as most people our age do. We still do see a few of our old clients, we meet them for either a tea or a coffee... or at the bar"

The newly engaged couple have not always seen eye to eye and Francinaldo had to work hard to get the ring on Elisany's finger.

'When we met I had already turned 16,I was still a bit childish and so I was just playing around with him for a while and I got so annoyed with him - as if he was a rival that I hated.I just didn't like him and wanted to hit him every time we met.'I told him many times, 'do not ask me to marry you because my answer will be no' - I think that's what he was thinking.I was so nervous when I saw him there. I don't even know how I coped.'
