Mrs Buhari can't be head of Africa's First Ladies if she's not the First Lady of Nigeria, can she?

Presidential media aide Shehu Garba said something recently that I want us to discuss. Find it below..

“Out of respect to Mrs. Buhari, the Sierra-Leonian First Lady, Mrs. Sia Koroma recently surrendered her position of head of Africa’s First Ladies to Mrs. Buhari, inviting her to take up the same seat which Mrs. Jonathan hurriedly handed over a few weeks to the handover of her husband’s government to President Buhari. Again, all these things are currently under consideration and no decision has been arrived at presently"

If Pres. Buhari has or wants to abolish the office of The First Lady during his administration, (the media has been asked to refer to Aisha Buhari as the wife of the president and not First Lady) does it not disqualify her to head Africa's First Lady, since she's technically not a First Lady? Thoughts?


I ask because Mr Garba said that they are considering it. Below are other things he said...

“President Buhari promised that there would be a clear difference between the role played by his wife during his tenure and that played by many previous First Ladies.

“All that ostentation, ubiquitousness and arrogance we have come to expect from the office are over and done with. Change has come.

“The ideal platform from which she will be useful to Nigeria’s women and children is still being thought out. Once this has been concluded on, Mrs. Buhari’s role will become clearer to all Nigerians. There will be nothing shady or hidden about it. There will be no access to public funds. It will be purely private and voluntary."

Imagine if he'd been just 10 minutes late in leaving work yesterday...he probably would still be alive today. Quite sad! Gym instructor Matt Jones, said to be in his 20s, was on his way home from work yesterday afternoon when a vintage Hawker Hunter jet smashed into his BMW 3 Series Coupe in a ball of flames during the Shoreham Airshow display in London yesterday. 

7 people were killed on the ground and Police fear that the death toll may rise as some of the people in the hospital are in critical condition. The jet's pilot, Andy Hill was pulled from the burning wreckage and is also in a critical condition in the hospital.

Last administration paid N140bn as consultancy fee for the 2nd Niger bridge -Oshiomhole alleges

Edo state governor, Adams Oshiomhole has alleged that a whooping N140bn was paid as consultancy fee for the construction of a second Niger bridge by the last administration. Oshiomhole  said this while reacting to insinuations that the Buhari led government was victimizing the Igbos because they did not vote for him. He said if at all there was any victimization, it was in the last administration.

"For those who are interested in politics of sharing, I am not interested; I am interested in the politics of baking. If the competent hands come from one family and they will deliver to the nation so be it. If a Kenyan can be elected as an American President why should we continue to discuss South South or South East.
The second Niger Bridge is what Ndigbo needs to ask Jonathan, where is that bridge? They did ground breaking, water breaking, where is the bridge? When Father Mbaka talked about the shame of Onitsha-Enugu road, people misconstrued his comments. Let me tell you, if the Igbos were marginalized, it was by President Jonathan under the PDP. Even the consultancy they did in the name of the second Niger Bridge, the expenditure they incurred which is not on ground, about 700 million dollars of that was funded from the Sovereign Wealth Fund which is money not belonging to the Federal Government but to the 774 Local Government Areas, the 36 states and of course the Federal Government. We called them to appear before us and they said they spent 700 million dollars from the Sovereign Wealth fund and I asked them where is the bridge? That 700million dollars amounted to N140billion on the second Niger Bridge and that money belongs to the three tiers of government. Okonjo Iweala was shouting on the need to have a Sovereign Wealth Fund but you can see what they used the money for. Those are the issues the Igbos should ask Jonathan to account for. Where is our bridge? Where is the dual carriage way from Onitsha to Owerri and Enugu. The roads in the South South as Obasanjo will say are embarrassment to the people of the South South. You cannot drive to Yenagoa, no road; so much noise about East West road, where is the road? You go to Akwa Ibom the Federal roads there are in bad shape. I have listened to governors from the South East, they will tell you there are no roads in the South East. So if the Igbos were marginalized, it was President Jonathan and the PDP. If Nigerians know what these people did, they will stone them to death – jungle justice. 700 million dollars gone on second Niger bridge without any bridge to show"he said

Man who raped 2yr old girl & killed her great-grandparents jailed for 359 years

 

A man who raped a two-year-old girl and murdered her great-grandparents has been jailed for 359 years. Remorseless Jerry Active, 26, continued to protest his innocence as he was sentenced for his sickening crimes.

The Alaska native bludgeoned Touch Chea, aged 71, and his 73-year-old wife Sorn Sreap to death at their Anchorage home in May 2013.

He also raped Sreap and the couple's two-year-old great-granddaughter in a random attack which police described as one of the "worst thing they had ever seen in their lives".

He was found guilty on 10 felony counts, including first-degree murder, multiple counts of sexual assault, sexually abusing a minor and robbery in April.

Police said he also sexually assaulted a 90-year-old woman, who died in June.

Active had been released early from prison just hours before the attacks, according to state officials.

He was set free on probation after serving part of a seven-year sentence for pleading guilty to breaking into an Alaska home in 2009 and sexually assaulting a child and other residents.

Alaska Dispatch News quoted Anchorage Superior Court Judge Philip Volland as saying: "Mr. Active's actions will remain a scar on the community.

"These murders were senseless, brutal, bloody and bloodthirsty."

Man injects Viagra into his manhood and it almost explodes

A man had to be rushed to hospital after his penis nearly exploded when he injected it with 'Viagra'.
The terrified victim had to have lots of blood pumped from his manhood after his lusty experiment went horribly wrong.

And unbelievably the foolhardy Lothario, 31, who goes by the username sorec**k, says he will do it again just as soon as he recovers.

The cautionary tale came to light on the social media site Reddit. His story began when he and his wife, 27, decided to try swinging and enjoyed it thoroughly. But his stamina didn't match his ambition.
He posted:

"I got a little greedy. "I saw a urologist and told him I had erectile dysfunction. "He prescribed various pills." 

But none of them had the desired effect."So the next step was injections straight into the side of the penis," he said. "I called it Viagra in the post title, but actually it's called TriMix. "Same effect though. "I initially balked at the idea."

After doing some research on the effects, however, he was sold. Initially things were going well, but when it was time to stop, he encountered a problem.

"And that's where things got dicey," he said. "I started pouring cold water over it. Nothing. "I took four Sudafed pills (as suggested online when you get an out-of-control erection). Nothing. 

"I started exercising major muscle groups, doing endless sets of push-ups, pull-ups, squats, etc. (also recommended online, in order to divert the blood). Nothing. "Three hours in, it was starting to really hurt...and I was starting to panic. 

"Knowing that the medication came with a warning that prolonged erections lasting longer than four hours require emergency medical attention, I rushed to the ER. "Telling the elderly Hispanic woman in triage what happened wasn't fun. "I was writhing in pain at this point, and...was so sensitive and painful, I could not walk and required a wheelchair because the sensation of it rubbing against my shorts as I walked was incredibly painful. 

"Yes, I was awkwardly covering up my erection the entire time. "Eventually I got wheeled into a room."I got two full doses of morphine before I calmed down a bit. 40 minutes later, a team of doctors and nurses came in. 

"The resident doctor was a young, cute Indian woman who - unlike the others in the room who tried very hard to act serious - read me and the situation better and made it pretty clear that she thought this was all pretty hilarious and cheered me up immediately, by turns making fun of me and being very vaguely flirtatious. 

"Eventually they got a butterfly needle and proceeded to extract a STUPENDOUS amount of blood...as the doctors took turns squeezing. 

"Needless to say, I'll be doing this again, starting at a third of the first dosage."

Some people don't learn.
