Why President Buhari is a tyrant - Fani Kayode

Image
Fani Kayode has again taken to the media to attack his long-term political foe - President Muhammadu Buhari over his handling of state affairs . Former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode has described President Muhammadu Buhari, as a tyrant. The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, chieftain made the remark while citing a report from Amnesty International. Amnesty International in one of its report claimed that hundreds of Nigerians were being held in secret detention centers across the country. However, Fani-Kayode in a tweet via his social media said those in secret detention across the country were in their thousands. “Amnesty Int. says hundreds of people are being held in secret detention in Nigeria. It is not hundreds but thousands. Buhari is a tyrant,” he wrote. Source:   tori.ng  

Paris Saint-Germain complete Kylian Mbappe loan move from Monaco

Image
The 18-year-old striker has followed in the footsteps of Neymar by joining the Parc des Princes side . Paris Saint-Germain have pulled off their latest coup in the transfer market by completing the signing of Kylian Mbappe from Monaco. The 18-year-old striker was the subject of intense transfer speculation all summer but has finally joined his hometown club, initially on loan but with the club having a compulsory purchase clause in the deal that means he will arrive on a permanent basis next summer. At that time, he is expected to become the world’s second most expensive player, with the deal reported to be as much as €180 million. PSG have already smashed the world transfer record this summer, having acquired Neymar from Barcelona for €222m. As a result of that deal, they could not also afford to sign Mbappe and stay within UEFA’s Financial Fair Play (FFP) regulations, hence the move is simply a loan to begin with. The teenager is regarded as one of the hottest properties in the

Image
The series finale saw Jon Snow and Daenerys Targaryen have sex aboard a ship as they set sail for the North and battle against the army of the dead. However, unbeknown to both characters was the fact they are both related, with Daenerys in fact Jon’s aunt. In a new behind the scenes special released by HBO, Clarke said: “For us, as actors, it’s just weird. The reality of what they are to each other, I don’t know how that’s going to ... I think [gags] might be the reaction.” Harrington added: “I think they both know it’s wrong. I think they both know it’s going to cause problems. But it’s that thing, when you suddenly feel that deeply about someone and you go through those events together, it’s like a runaway train. You can’t stop it from happening.” Peter Dinklage, who plays Tyrion Lannister — Daenerys’ hand and voice of reason, witnessed Jon enter his queen’s room. He added: “It’s dangerous for everybody involved. I’m sure it’s good for both of them in the moment, but you don’t ev

How False Prophet Nearly Destroyed My Wedding Day

Image
Here is a story shared by a Facebook user , Anthony Igbinosun A Facebook user A few weeks before my wife and I got married, something happened. After church one Sunday, a man approached her on her way back home and told her that God gave him a message for her. He said, ‘God told me to tell you that the man you are about to get married to is not the right person for you.’ Wow. Although she knew what God had said about our marriage in times past, a shadow of doubt was cast on her mind. This was a complete stranger, yet how did he know that she was about to get married? When she got home, she went into prayer. ‘Lord, show me the truth,’ she pleaded. Suddenly, her eyes were opened and she saw the boot of a car, and in this boot were piles of wedding souvenirs. On one of the jotters, she saw her picture and mine, with the inscription GOZIE WEDS OSAS. Then she heard a clear voice saying: ‘THIS IS A MATCH MADE IN HEAVEN’. The devil is a bastard. I once shared on Facebook that the best t

The sisters – Princesses Folashade, Adeshola and Adebimpe – had allegedly encouraged their brothe

Fertility warning over antiseptic chemicals in common household cleaning fluid, wipes

Image
Exposure to common household products damages human cells Chemicals in common household products could be making us infertile, scientists say. Hand wipes, disinfectants and mouthwash all contain ‘quats’ – quaternary ammonium compounds – used to destroy germs. While the threat to hormones from the plastic containers is well known, these antiseptic chemicals have also been linked to infertility. Mice exposed to them were left unable to have babies, and scientists have now found they damage human cells. Examples of the household products containing quats include Dettol surface cleaner and antibacterial wipes, as well as Tesco disinfectant. But there are many more, including Lemsip Max All In One Liquid and two types of mouthwash from Colgate. Dr. Gino Cortopassi, co-author of a study on the chemicals from the University of California, Davis, United States (US), said: “It is concerning that these everyday household products contain these chemicals, which at a certain concentration hav

Nigerian Scientist Oshiorenoya Agabi invents computer trained to recognise smell of explosives

Image
Nigerian neuroscientist Oshiorenoya Agabi envisages airports that will need no visible security system allowing people to just walk on to planes. Agabi may have found a way to solve one of life’s puzzling dilemmas: how to make air travel pleasant again in case you could skip tedious airport security lines, while a special device able to sniff out explosives works silently in the background. This is only one of the possible uses of what Agabi says is the world’s first neurotechnology device developed by his Silicon Valley-based start-up Koniku and unveiled at the TEDGlobal conference in Tanzania on Sunday. While those in the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) are working furiously to create machines that can mimic the brain, or – like tech entrepreneur Elon Musk – implant computers in our brains, Agabi has found a way to merge lab-grown neurons with electronic circuitry. As many grapple with the finite processing power of silicon, the 38-year-old said he had looked to the brain

Wizkid raps on new single ‘Trap King’ by Young Jeezy

Image
Wizzy’s been hanging out with a lot of American hip hop artists of late, he was spotted with Young Jeezy in a studio and at another time, just chilling somewhere on the continental United States. It seems the emcee vibes may be rubbing off on Weezy as his new single Trap King is actually a bit of a certified banger. There are not too many released records of Wizkid rapping, although this reporter and a few other people in his inner circle may have heard a Wizkid rap track or two. His growth as a musician shines through as he channels his inner rapper, it kind of flows naturally, but one wonders if Wizkid has a ghost writer on this record or if he actually spit these playful melodious bars on his own. Notable bars come in on the second verse: I show up, your chick disappear ta-da thats me//Snapbacks and rollies I know OG’s thats me. Whatever the case, its not a bad effort, and the production is catchy. R2Beez also guest star on the track. Head over to the source link to listen to
