Police nab fake LUTH doctor

According to a report by Vanguard the Lagos State Police Command on Thursday October 18th paraded a 40-year-old man, Adeyemi Stephen Akintolure (pictured above), a suspected fake medical doctor, who claimed to be a staff of the Lagos University Teaching Hospital, LUTH, with card No. 13541, identifying him as a surgeon and gynaecologist.

He said he is from Ondo State, studied Marketing at Obafemi Awolowo University, Ife, as a part-time student and graduated in 1997.

The fake medical doctor was said to have fraudulently obtained N500,000 from one Joy Umosekhaimhe of 2, Adesanya Close, Ifeko-Gbagada.

Akintolure, who said he uses the wife’s car as a mobile clinic, said the money in question was borrowed from Umosekhaimhe, adding “actually, it was not N500,000. It was N260,000 she lent me to use for my brother’s ailment.”

Jim Iyke says it's not his place to judge whether T.B Joshua is real or fake

APC Accepts 7 PDP Governors, To Give Them Party Structures

The All Progressive Congress, APC, has agreed to welcome the seven governors in the breakaway faction of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, with the offer to give them complete control of the APC structures in their respective states immediately.

Our Sources gathered that President Goodluck Jonathan is working secretly to plead with the governors not to dump the PDP for the APC because it would be difficult for him to win a re-election in 2015 with just about 15 governors when the APC will be having almost 20 governors.

The acting National Publicity Secretary of the APC, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, has said the party would not be averse to any big fish, including all the seven new PDP governors since they are ready to join the APC.

“It is our party policy that any governor that joins us from the opposition would be given the party structure in his state,” a top APC officials was quoted as telling Governor Murtala Nyako.

N255m Car Scandal: Minister Stella Oduah Gets 72hrs To Resign

The heat is on. Nigeria's most visible anti-corruption watchdog led by a former legislator, Hon. Dino Melaye, has given Nigeria's Minister of Aviation, Stella Oduah 72 hours to resign from office.

The ultimatum follows revelations that she arm-twisted a cash-strapped agency, the NCAA, to purchase two armored BMW 760 Li cars for her at highly inflated prices.

Our Sources gathered from a top source in Abuja that even President Goodluck Jonathan is shocked at Stella Oduah's spending of N255m for just two cars but he can't do anything due to some reasons.

President Jonathan Shouldn't Have Appointed Me Into National Conference Committee – Says Nwabueze

 

Leader of The Patriots, Prof. Ben Nwabueze, has described his appointment to serve on National Conference Advisory Committee by President Goodluck Jonathan as inappropriate.

“I never expected to be appointed chairman or member of the Committee, and would, quite frankly, have considered such an appointment inappropriate in the circumstances. It is an appointment for a younger person, not for an old man of 83 years.”

Prof Nwabueze said in the statement on Thursday that he had been in London since September 8, receiving treatment for prostate cancer. He said he had expected that his contribution to the national dialogue would have been to help prepare “a Draft People’s Constitution” which he had hoped to send to the President and the National Assembly.

ASUU UPDATE: FG Finally Agrees to Meet ASUU's Demands after Over 100 Days

Towards ending the ongoing ASUU strike, the Federal Government has committed to spending N200 billion in the 2014 budget on the universities as well as on each of the next three-four years until the universities are brought to world-class standard as demanded by ASUU leadership. 

 This is in addition to the N100 billion dedicated and already made available...

Government has also increased to N40billion as a first installment, funds for payment of earned allowances to the striking lecturers, an improvement from the N30 billion previously released.

This information is contained in an internal statement at the Federal University of Otuoke by Professor Bolaji Aluko, its Vice-Chancellor.

New PDP Governors Finally Set To Dump Jonathan For The APC

While they were having "peace meetings" with President Goodluck Jonathan in Aso Rock, the president was, in a clandestine move, encouraging agencies of government under the Presidency to go after the 7 governors who belong to the New PDP and their supporters.

Consequently the New PDP governors have decided to take their destinies into their hands. It's now obvious that the peace move have hit a brick wall. Sources said that the Governors have met and they are now ready to go out of the PDP and accept the “warm embrace of the APC.”

A hint to this effect emerged during the Sallah holiday when Adamawa State Governor, Murtala Nyako, told a visiting APC delegation on Wednesday, that himself and the six other aggrieved New PDP governors, are being victimized in the PDP and are ready to leave.

Jonathan's Conference: The Right Thing At The Wrong Time

Expectedly, the most discussed issue since October 1, 2013 is the proposed national conference consented to by President Goodluck Jonathan in his Independence Day broadcast. Since then, the President has gone ahead to inaugurate the Femi Okurounmu-led National Advisory Committee on National Dialogue.

My take on this whole issue is that it is a right thing being done at the wrong time. Yes, it is better to jaw-jaw than to war-war. However, convoking a national dialogue on the eve of an election year is ominous. Also, the quick succession in which the opponents of the idea became the proponents is suspect...

Kim K's engagement ring from Kris Humphries sells at auction for $620k

Kim Kardashian's engagement ring from ex-husband Kris Humphries has been sold at auction for $620, 000. The ring which Kim paid for herself, but weirdly returned to Kris after she broke up with him was sold today Tuesday October 15th at a Christie's auction in NYC, Us Weekly reports.

The unknown buyer bought the Lorraine Schwartz creation, which features a 16.21-carat center diamond and two 1.8-carat side diamonds for a total of $749,000, which is plus tax.

The amount is a significant drop from the ring's initial reported worth of $2 million.

"Kim has been waiting for the day he would auction it. Everyone always asked what Kim did with the ring - she silently gave it back over a year ago! And Kris waited until the divorce was final to sell it." a source told Us Weekly

"The ring is definitely not worth $2 million, not even half of that," sniffs the source. Indeed, Kardashian, not Humphries, initially paid for the ring herself.

‘I Do Not Have a Child but Wande Coal Does’ – D’banj Says

Several reports and sources suggest former label mates - Dapo ‘D’banj’ Oyebanjo and Oluwatobi ‘Wande’ Ojosipe have already fathered their first children respectively.

The blog suggested D’banj welcomed his first child with an unidentified woman sometime ago; citing five women as potential baby mamas on the story’s leading photo. Photos of Nadia Buari and Genevieve Nnaji (both rumoured to have dated D’banj) and three other women were inserted into the picture, with the author asking readers to guess who the baby mama is.

NET has not been able to confirm the authenticity of the news. We however learnt that the report might be tied to D’banj former label partner Don Jazzy. Interestingly, sources tell us Truspot’s Ike Orizu who’s Don Jazzy’s friend founded Famzin.com about two months ago. We are told D’banj and his team aren’t happy
with the story and the authors too.

WORLD CUP QUALIFIER: Nigeria Puts One Leg In Brazil As Eagles Put Down Stubborn Ethiopia Side, Beats them 2-1

The Super Eagles of Nigeria Have Increased their Chances Of Making next year FIFA world cup in brazil by grabing a crucial away win against Ethiopia

The game started with the Ethiopians playing in high tempo trying to get the early goal but the super eagle's defence kept calm and handled the pressure briliantly.
The Ethiopians kept pilling on the pressure and seemed to have had a breakthrough when Saladin Saed controlled the ball well in the 18 yard spot and shoot pass Enyeama but Oboabona was in tune to save the day.
The first half ended with the Wayla antelopes in full posession and attacking the Eagles defence.
During the second half, Ethiopia scored the most unlikely of goals as Assefa's cross just sails into the goal before Enyeama caught it.
Referee judged the ball to have the line. Enyeama jugded to have caught the ball in his net.
