2000 NIGERIANS TRAPPED IN LIBYA.

This is so sad as 2,000 helpless Nigerians in Libya will have to wait before they can be evacuated because Libyan authorities have refused to grant landing permit to the aircraft and personnel.

This came after President Jonathan’s directive on Wednesday ordering the immediate evacuation of Nigerians stranded out there.

According to THISDAY NIGERIA

Sources at the National Emergency Management Agency told the paper that the team for the evacuation and the aircraft chartered could not fly to Tripoli since Thursday as they are still awaiting diplomatic clearance from Libya.

The Director-General of NEMA, Sani Sidi, who is the leader of the team and others have been on standby at the airport since Thursday waiting for the clearance from Libya. Others in the team are foreign affairs officers, medical personnel and immigration/rescue officers. NEMA Spokesman Yushau Shuaib confirmed the problems being faced by the Nigerian team, saying the agency would keep trying until it gets the necessary clearance to enter Libya for the evacuation exercise.

Nigerian embassy sources in Tripoli told THISDAY last night that there are about 2,000 distressed Nigerians in Libya who are eagerly awaiting evacuation. They are said to be getting a raw deal in the hands of Libyan security men who have been brutally repressing the uprising.

The source said when the embassy was finding it difficult getting clearance for the evacuation team, at a point, it considered the idea of asking the distressed Nigerians to either move to Egypt or Mecca in Saudi Arabia, “from where the NEMA team will go and pick them.” However, the Nigerian embassy dropped the idea for fears that the Nigerians may be exposed to more dangers if they should attempt crossing Libyan land borders. The embassy source further disclosed that the Libyan authorities have been unenthusiastic about the issuance of the clearance to NEMA difficult because Libya views Nigeria as an unfriendly country.

This, the source said has been responsible for the frosty relationship between the two countries in the last ten years. As a result, Libya closed its embassy in Nigeria over ten years ago. However, Nigeria still maintains an embassy in Tripoli.

I DONT WANT TO GET MARRIED.

You gotta love kids of nowadays,very intresting species..This video is tooo funny.

SCAMMER COMES OUT CLEAN--VIDEO

This is so so sad, but how can you too believe that the black papers are money in disguise as in how far and like he said its greed,but what i dont like is the fact that the titled it Nigerian scam(we arent so devilish,if i say so myself),its not,and the man is Ghanaian how are we even sure he has partners in Nigeria, like his claiming.For a second i felt pity for him when he was crying but nah mehn,i just hope he changes.

NIGERIANS ARE JOBLESS.

Nigerian "law enforcement agents" are most certainly jobless,how can u ban people from using tint i dont get?First the woman in the house of assembly wanted to pass a bill that people should not wear shorts or sleeveless dresses,then Aunt Dora said that we should not be calling Nigeria Naija,Nigezie or names like that then this..this people are magnanimous clowns,the thought of all of them causes me to reel with laughter.

The Minister of Police Affairs, Humphrey Abah revealed this at a press conference in Abuja, "with effect from February 28, 2011, owners of tinted vehicles would be made to remove them by policemen on the spot as the CAP M21, Motor vehicle prohibiting tinted glass Act, forbids use of heavily filmed cars." he said.

Mr. Abah said, the Federal Road Safety Corps and Road Traffic Services personnel are to assist the police in enforcing the law, and cars with factory-fitted tinted glasses are exempted from the directive. With this new directive ,only the President, his vice, governors, the Senate President, his deputy and majority leader as well as the Speaker, House of Representatives are permitted to use tinted glasses in the country.

The ministry boss warned that "unauthorized use of siren will attract severe sanction as such vehicles will be confiscated, adding that owners of vehicles with foreign numbers have two weeks to register them or remove them from the road."

YETUNDE BAKARE-ASIKA

Was going through 234next and i stumbled upon this, i think its so beautiful and sweet*teary*

What is the most romantic moment you've shared with him?

I hesitate because there have been many, but I guess the one that comes straight to mind is the morning of our wedding. My husband had a single rose delivered to me at 7am, with a card stating, "I can't wait to be joined with you for all eternity!" He then had a cup of tea and my favourite white chocolate cookies and another single rose sent to me in the day, with another card saying, "You are already gorgeous to me, but I can't wait to see you today!" Then, while I was doing my hair and makeup, he had yet another rose delivered with a card that said, "So, soon we will be together. I miss you baby, Your Loving HUSBAND!!!!!" He had in all, five single roses sent to me that day.

YVENT COUTRE INVITES YOU TO FACE THE GIANT.

Yvent Kouture invites you to Face the Giants

Last year, Facing the Giant gave young people an opportunity to learn how to run an event management outfit from the masters in the field.

This year, Facing the Giant returns with a more explosive session that concentrates on every phase of owning and managing an event company.

Organised by event management outfit, Yvent Kouture, Facing the Giant is a 2 day practical interactive, skill acquisition and practical conference dedicated to providing a platform for young people to hone their skills, gain more knowledge and see the possibility of becoming entrepreneurs in the events industry.

“This is our contribution towards fighting the high unemployment figures in the country”, organiser Debola Lewis of Yvent Couture said. “What we try to do is to empower young people with the tool they need most – information. We have discovered that young people are not doing as much as they ought to do in this country because they do not know they can do it. So we organise forums like this to tell them they can be the entrepreneurs they admire and we bring the big names in to show them how to be that.”



“Last year we had event management experts like Akin Ariyo of Open Hands; Tara-Fela Durotoye of House of Tara, Comedian Tee A, Funke Bucknor-Obruthe of Zapphaire Events and Tijani Mohammed of Excellent Balloons”, organiser, Lewis noted. Other facilitators were Fumibi Adebayo of Rostal Flowers, Toyosi Akerele of Rise Networks, Akin Tofowomo of Shuga Band and Leke Adenuga of Quartz Fotography.



“Facing the Giant was perhaps the most important event I ever attended in my life”, Akin Shofidiya, one of the participant of the previous edition said. “I went out of that hall challenged and concentrated on my own decoration outfit and today, just a few months after, I have a company that puts food on my table”.



This year’s edition shall feature Yewande Zacchaeus of Eventful Limited, Olakunle Soriyan of Olakunle Soriyan Company, Ace Photographer Kelechi Amadi-Obi, Akin Ariyo of Open hands Limited, Banke Meshida Lawal of BM PRO Studios, Comedian Teju Baby face and Musician Tosin Martins.



Facilitator, Tosin Martins, who also spoke about the initiative, noted that “this is an excellent approach to engage and challenge young people to go forth and do something with themselves. The organisers capitalise on their experience within the industry and their social consciousness to contribute towards building a better Nigeria”.



The second edition of Facing the Giant is scheduled to hold on Thursday 17th and Friday 18th of March 2011 at the Afe Babalola Auditorium of the University of Lagos. Interested participants can visit www.facingthegiants.com.ng for more information.

OLAIDE TAIWO JAILED FOR 8YRS IN LONDON FOR FRAUD.

Why must some Nigerians remain everly stupid,now a days people dont do 419 because you would get caught easily and most especially in England where they are very suspicious of Nigerians.
I guess Olaide Taiwo aged 35 didnt seem to know that as he stole the identities of 350 people to claim £1.3million in tax credits in the largest scam(419 as we call it)he hijacked the identities while working as a security guard for a number of large national companies. He then used the names to claim tens of thousands in working tax credits.
This week he was jailed for eight and a half years – the highest ever sentence for tax credit fraud.

When he was arrested, investigators found an ‘identity thieves’ paradise’, with stacks of fake passports and driving licenses and £70,000 in cash lying around his council flat in Camberwell, South-East London.The property was littered with paperwork detailing the names, addresses and national insurance numbers of hundreds of people which he had taken from employee payroll records at dozens of companies around London where he had worked as a security guard.

They also found templates for making false passports, birth certificates, NHS cards and driving licences.
Taiwo used the identities to open hundreds of bank accounts for the benefits to be paid into, but HM Revenue & Customs became suspicious about the multiple tax credit applications and arrested him in July 2008.

They believe he was the ringleader of an organised criminal network which included his sister-in-law who worked for a job centre.But the rest of the gang are thought to have fled to Nigeria. Taiwo also tried to leave the country but he was arrested again on August 6 last year.

He was found guilty at Inner London Crown Court of fraudulently obtaining payments of tax credits, by using the names and addresses of individuals without their consent and acquiring criminal property.
Sentencing him, Judge Simon Davis ordered that he be deported at the end of his eight and a half year sentence.
He said: ‘This is a fraud on a substantial scale.
‘You lied and sought to manipulate with ease and confidence and with an arrogance that was astonishing.
‘You were intimately connected with every aspect of the fraud, stealing real details of real people to commit identity fraud on the large scale.’

Taiwo’s sister-in-law Olajumoke Ademuyiwa, 42, a Jobcentre Plus employee, was also found guilty of fraudulently obtaining tax credit payments in an earlier hearing.
Ademuyiwa opened the bank accounts into which the benefits were paid, but she is not thought to have used her role as a job centre worker to make false claims.

NEW ZEALAND EARTHQUAKE KILLS 65

A powerful earthquake in the southern New Zealand city of Christchurch has killed at least 65 people, and left about 200 others trapped in damaged buildings.

The country's prime minister, John Key, revealed the death toll during a statement on the plight of the city of 350,000 people - and warned it may rise.

He told TV1 News: "It is a just a scene of utter devastation. This may be New Zealand's darkest day."
Google has set up a website to help distribute information about missing victims.

Buildings have collapsed and vehicles are buried beneath debris, with rescue workers scrambling to help those trapped under rubble left by the 6.3 magnitude quake.

The fire service said the proximity of the quake to the city's centre meant it had caused more damage than the 7.1 magnitude tremor in Christchurch last September.


"The shake has been a lot worse, maybe not in intensity but as far as damage is concerned, and there are numerous people trapped," a spokesman said.

MOAMMAR GADHAFI.

This man is a rascal,you have been leading a country for 42years and you no wan go!haba!!! One question if Egypt didnt rise up and use broom and chase Mubarak,other countries would have still been eating jam abi?
Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi vows to fight on and die a “martyr,” calling on his supporters to take back the streets from protesters demanding his ouster, shouting and pounding his fist in a furious speech today on state TV.

Gadhafi spoke from a podium set up in the entrance of a bombed out building that appeared to be his Tripoli residence hit by U.S. air strikes in the 1980s and left unrepaired as a monument of defiance. The speech, which appeared to have been taped earlier, was aired on a screen to hundreds of supporters massed in Tripoli’s central Green Square.

Shouting in the rambling speech, he declared himself “a warrior” and proclaimed, “Libya wants glory, Libya wants to be at the pinnacle, at the pinnacle of the world.”

At times the camera panned out to show a towering gold-colored monument in front of the building, showing a fist crushing a fighter jet with an American flag on it – a view that also gave the strange image of Gadhafi speaking alone from behind a podium in the building’s delapidated lobby, with no audience in front of him.

“I am a fighter, a revolutionary from tents … I will die as a martyr at the end,” he said. “I have not yet ordered the use of force, not yet ordered one bullet to be fired … when i do, everything will burn.”(can u imagine,still bold)

He called on supporters to take to the streets to attack protesters. “You men and women who love Gadhafi …get out of your homes and fill the streets,” he said. “Leave your homes and attack them in their lairs … Starting tomorrow the cordons will be lifted, go out and fight them.”

WHAT HE REALLY MEANS.

Silence, closed eyes = “I’m frustrated as hell.”

“Forget about it.” = Same thing as when women say, “Forget about it.”

“It’s fine” or “It’s okay” = This actually means that there’s no problem with whatever you’re asking. For some men, “It’s fine” is the best compliment they give.

“I’m just having a good time,” “I don’t want to rush things” or “I’m just seeing where things go” = He’s just not that into you. He has no intentions on wifing you. Please, please don’t go around and tell your friends, “We’re just seeing where things go.” You sound delirious and irrational.

He gets up and leaves without saying bye = “I’m leaving before I say/do something that I’ll regret later.”

During an argument, he changes the channel, opens a beer or goes to the bathroom = “I’m not listening to this crap right now.”

“Is that what you’re wearing?” = When a man says this, he really means he doesn’t like the outfit or thinks it’s inappropriate.

Refusing to make direct eye contact with one of your friends = He finds her attractive and doesn’t want to get caught with his “I would do very bad things to you” look on his face. Or, he messed with them back in the day, before you guys got together. Real talk, watch your man when your friends are around. If he won’t look at them, throw a flag or something real hard.

“I’m hanging out with the guys tonight.” = He’s shopping for women. When the guys get together they go window-shopping, but if they see a must-have, they will take that phone out and get a number or two. Keep it real, you said you were going to go in that store to look at those Louboutins but you left with them.

He’s late, something is always coming up, or any other reason why he cancels last minute = Again, he’s just not that into you.

5 THINGS YOU DONT KNOW ABOUT KATE MIDDLETON.

1. At 29, Kate’s going to be the oldest royal bride.

2. She’s allergic to horses—interesting because she’s marrying into the one of the biggest equestrian families.

3. The sheer dress she modeled in a fashion show while at St. Andrews will be worth $160,000 after she marries the prince.

4. William and Kate are 12th cousins once removed. It’s distant, yet true.

5. Forget polo— she’s a tennis girl.

CELESTINE BABAYARO DECLARES BANKRUPCY!!!

Chai!! this are hard times people are just broke,left,right,center,up, down..Baba God take control.
Celestine Babayaro is being chased by creditors after being declared bankrupt. The ex-Nigerian international, who was reported to earn £25,000-a-week at one stage, has been listed alongside a dinner lady and glass cutter in an announcement printed in the London Gazette.

The player, who won the gold with Nigeria at Atlanta '96 Olympic, has been living at an address on Laleham Road, in Shepperton, Middlesex, according to the order. Neighbours said they feared the former full-back, now 32, had fallen on hard times because the upkeep of his £475,000 property had slipped.
A neighbor, who lives on the same street as Babayaro said: “You can tell money’s difficult because the home used to be maintained really nicely, but now it’s a bit of a mess. “You can see where the conservatory is starting to fall down and the garden is completely overgrown. They came and asked to borrow my lawnmower but I had to say no because the grass was too long and would have broken it.”

The bankruptcy order was first entered at a court in Croydon, London, last year, before being confirmed last month. It is understood Babayaro has recently been living abroad. The financial meltdown is the latest in a string of disappointments for the U-17 World Cup winner in 1993.
But some news has it that he was addicted to gambling and clubbing,so he always needed money to fund his lifestyle.

Onome-(Dublin Ireland)
Why should Omotola allow that American dude to place his hand on her huge buttocks? Secondly, the mimi (mini) gown she wore is too tight, revealing her shape. She suppose to have gone for a cute dinner gown, she also need to shade (shed) some weight, instead she is adding more flesh. Honestly, am not too impressed.

She look like any other lady on a casual date. Those belly fat needs to be lost. Is not only for her kind of job also for her health wise!!!!!!!!!

He loves U n respects ur chosen path. Don’t abuse it or make him feel s**p*d. U r married. Respect that and finally ,U can try being close friends with Rita D, I’m sure she’ll let U in on some secrets of dressing up.

I think omosexy went to the salon to make her hair and there were lots of people waiting so, she had to start goin cos she wz runing late…As for the cloth, the gown she wz meant to wear, got burnt while the dry cleaner wz getting it ready…so she had to go to a close by bend down boutique to get smthing… but on getting there, they had only size 10 dresses so she had to manage it dt way…Go on omosexy at least u tried..but it jus didn,t work out…hahahahaa

Tete

This woman was up to something, cos she was wearing her wedding ring on thumb. About the man she was with, trust Nigerians very soon we go hear the story
Lolo

Very disappointed with Omotola’s dress. This is low class, unsophisticated, cheap, ugly, too tight, poor color coordination and a mis-representation of African movie stars. What was she thinking wearing that garbage of a dress at the Grammy awards, did she think she was attending one of the Nigerians or Gh***ian red carpets? ..Humm unbelievable.

Ngozi
Omotola, you said you used to preach in the bus? where are your christian virtues? you should have done better than dress in this unGodly manner, exposing your inner wear, then allowing another man touch your private part like that.

What example are you teaching your kids and other youths who look up to you as a role model? Please people repent for the kingdom of God is at hand. Fame, money, acting, music, beauty will fade away but your salvation in Christ Jesus is your assurance to eternal life.

Linn
Actually, this is not omosexy at her best at all. Her hair undergrowth is showing -look closely. She just was not up to her old usual beautiful self here. and she needs the gym now to shed that weight.

Del
1st she was trying 2 hard to get noticed behind d E! Cameras,but dressed lyk dat maybe dey thought she was smebody’s assistant. Wats wit naija celebs and international recognition? Na by force to be tuface or genevieve? get a life and get a gym membership!

Dare
u are a f**l Gene cant stand near omotola we all know dat she has only one child and was fat and ugly with her bum dropping on her legs, it took her years 2 dry out like an okporoko so darlin let gene get married and have three more and u will know omotola is d real deal.

Zino
When you put up a headline like Omotola at 2011 grammys it makes readers feel like she was in the grammy hall. Truth is she wasnt. She sat in a hall outside the main grammy award hall and wacthed the occasion like the rest of us on a large screen.

The awards are for a rated musicians, music execs, producers, and their family members etc. even American stars sit in the outside halls because they havent achieved world wide acclaim. This is just a pr thing that went wrong. She travelled to america to sit in the a hall outside the main grammy hall. No wonder she couldnt take any pics with one music star.

27 calibre (Ghana)
Omotola I have been your fun since thykingdom come, well you did not reveal yourself as the real omosexy I know and you are married with kids too ,please next time dress very ,well I hate when people insult you even though I 27 calibre i am a gh***in ,please stop calling her names.

BOMB FOUND UNDER ENUGU GOV'S SEAT.

The Police in Enugu yesterday said it found and evacuated a bomb planted under one of the seats at the VIP section inside Okpara Square, Enugu, where the state Governor, Mr. Sullivan Chime and other party candidates had gathered to flag off his Governorship election campaign.

Enugu State Police Commissioner, Mr. John Danazumi Doma told journalists that the bomb was found a few hours to the event under one of the seats close to where Chime’s seat was located. He said had the bomb exploded, the havoc would have been terrible because the obvious target was Chime, and other top party men in the state.
Doma explained that anti-bomb experts from the police force usually sweep venues of such events before they commence adding that the cops were vigilant.

“I can confirm to you that a bomb was recovered at the venue of the PDP rally.
“It was a locally made improvised bomb (IED) buried under the VIP pavilion meant for the Governor and other dignitaries. It was buried directly in the middle meant for the Governor and his entourage,” the police commissioner said.

The discovery of the bomb however did not stop the rally from holding as Chime addressed the crowd of party men and supporters.

The Enugu Governor has been at loggerheads with a faction of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) loyal to ousted National Chairman of the party, Dr Okwesilieze Nwodo.

The police Commissioner said his command has opened an investigation to unravel the source of the explosive.
The Deputy Senate President, Senator Ike Ekweremadu and Senate spokesman, Senator Ayogu Eze, who are both senatorial candidates were also present and addressed the supporters.

I know i have tasted Omo once,and tasted dusting powder more than once because it just tasted nice,but this babe's own is on another p.Tempest Henderson has been enjoying eating soap for over 10years and has no suffered any side effect.
She said"the first time i tasted washing powder,it felt right and i was hooked immediately".
