President Jonathan had said at a PDP rally in Lagos Thursday that MEND tried to assassinate him on two separate occasions, pointing out that the leader of the organisation, Henry Okah, now serving a jail term in South Africa, was paid to assassinate him in 2010.

This was even as an ex-militant general, Godsday Smith, alias Bouninawei (the god of the forest), yesterday, in Warri, Delta State, said there was no way ex-agitators in the Niger- Delta region would abandon President Goodluck Jonathan for General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), just as he maintained that Jonathan’s indictment of ex-militants on plot to kill him was hasty and uncalled for, adding that there was no time ex-militants conspired against his government.

Smith asked Jonathan to be bold enough to confront the North which was planning his downfall using the Boko Haram insurgents.

President Goodluck Jonathan

I Manage Africa is a subsidiary of The Godwin Tom Company.

Punch columnist, Etcetera in today’s article has written the general overseer of Christ Embassy Church telling him that he blesses God for what he (Oyakhilome) has done for the kingdom of God, but it is not scriptural to charge Christians a particular fee for gaining entrance into the house of God to hear His words which comes out free from him. He also urged Nigerians to keep praying for pastors, gospel artistes an all spiritual leaders. His article after the cut.

Jonathan or Buhari who will you pick ?

By Francis Igata
President Goodluck Jonathan yesterday said his administration has fought corruption more than other past administrations in the country, asking the opposition All progressives Congress, APC, to tell Nigerians how it would tackle corruption if voted into power in the country.
Jonathan spoke in Enugu while flagging off his second term re-election and governorship campaign at the Nnamdi Azikwe Stadium.
The South East flag- off rally attracted a large crowd of party supporters from the five south east states of Anambra, Abia, Imo, Enugu and Ebonyi States.

Thirty years ago, he faced the cruel and ignominious fate of being tied to the stake and a hail of bullets from marksmen ended his precious life. That person was Bartholomew Owoh (26) who alongside others, Bernard Ogedengbe (29) and Lawal Ojuolape (30), were executed by firing squad after being arrested and tried for drug trafficking. The case of Bartholomew Owoh, the youngest of them all, was particularly tragic. At the time of his arrest, the crime did not carry capital forfeiture -the punishment was six months imprisonment. But Decree No. 20 was hurriedly promulgated and back-dated by one whole year to take effect from when he and others committed the crime and on the basis of that they were all tried, found guilty and executed by firing squad. Someone recently asked me if this actually happened and I said, “read the records of history against Buhari’s name”.

President Goodluck Jonathan on Friday during a rally in Enugu said that the All Progressives Congress candidate, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd), cannot remember his own mobile phone number.

Jonathan, whose unscripted address was mostly a response to previous statements made by Buhari, accused the APC presidential candidate of deceiving Nigerians by promising to revive the economy without explaining how he would achieve the feat.

The President wondered how Buhari would develop the country’s economy, a feat he could not achieve while he was in office as head of state between 1983 and 1985.

“Is it now that Buhari cannot even remember his own phone number that he can change the economy of the country.” Jonathan asked.

Have you been wondering why our amiable president was named Goodluck? The answer has been revealed in his authorized biography..According to his mother, Madam Eunice Aye Jonathan....

Pictured above is the wife of a traditional ruler, Baale Abeeb Lawal, of Ikolalumo in Meiran/Ajasa area of Lagos state. She was severally beaten by the Baale, on Thursday January 1st over a phone conversation. According to reports, he gave her a signal to end the call but she erroneously thought he meant for her to bring down her voice.

be honest!!!

Piers Morgan(Must Read)- If I can accept that the Paris murderers aren't real Muslims why won’t the MUSLIM world say so too?

This is war.

Let’s not pussy-foot around the terminology here when it comes to analyzing the sickening events in Paris over the last 48 hours.

But it’s not a religious war, as the cowardly, murderous thugs carrying out these atrocities would have us believe.

These terrorists are not ‘real’ Muslims. In fact, they slaughter Muslims as much if not more than they slaughter everyone else.
One of their two police officer victims in the attack on Charlie Hebdo’s offices was a Muslim.On the same day, Al Qaeda car-bombed a police college in Yemen - killing over 40 people, all believed to be Muslims, many of them students.

Not smiling at all! as Snoop Dog could get into a legal trouble after calling his look-alike Gay on Instagram. Snoop posted the photograph on his instagram page with the caption ‘Whose auntcle is this?’ His fans swooped on the poor man calling him, She Male, Female, Punk, Ugly and other unprintable names.

The man, Cortez Booz, asked instagram to put the photo down because the comments he received from his fans were derogatory and hurtful to him. The picture has been pulled down, but then Cortez might just be suing!

Paris (CNN)Three terrorists -- one suspected in the fatal shooting of a policewoman, the other two in the massacre at the offices of Charlie Hebdo magazine -- were killed Friday in separate raids in France, authorities said.

A hostage being held at a printing shop in Dammartin-en-Goele survived, and people ran out of a kosher grocery store in eastern Paris where hostages were being held. But authorities' work isn't over: A female suspect in Thursday's fatal police shooting is still at large.

GROCERY STORE HOSTAGE SITUATION

• Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve wouldn't comment on the number of people injured or dead in either of the operations conducted Friday. Earlier, French Ambassador to the United States Gerard Araud tweeted that the hostages in the grocery store siege were alive, but French police officials have not commented on the state of hostages.

• Slain hostage-taking suspect Amedy Coulibaly, who goes by the alias Doly Gringy, was a close associate of Cherif Kouachi, one of the Charlie Hebdo suspects also killed Friday, a Western intelligence source told CNN. The two were involved in a 2010 attempt to free an Algerian serving time for a 1995 subway bombing.

Sexy or Not?

How much sex should you be having?

How much sex are you getting?
Do you take a roll in the hay every night, once or twice a week, monthly or at no particular time? For the good of your own relationship, how much sex should you be having? Many couples do find infrequent sex to be an issue. While some are fine with the occasional 5-minutes romp under the sheets, others wish they were getting a whole lot more.

There are women who worry that their men demand too much sex and secretly wish they’d slow down. But a lot more men complain that it is their women that are not giving it up as often as they (men) desire.
More than next door
On the whole, the average couple is happy if it thinks it’s getting more sex than the couple next door regardless of how much it’s actually getting.

President Jonathan and Chief Obasanjo

BENIN—FORMER Chief Whip of the Senate, Senator Rowland Owie, has alleged that the reason former President Olusegun Obasanjo was at war with the administration of President Goodluck Jonathan was because the latter refused to be an errand boy to the former President.
He said that Nigerians were suffering today due to the faulty foundation laid by the former President.
He said: “The former president should apologize to Nigerians rather than blame the administration of President Jonathan which is doing very well for Nigerians.

What a s choking story as young 22yr old Nigerian college student Matthew Ajibade, (pictured) died in police custody and his family wants to know more about what led to his jail death.

CNN reports...

Matthew died in an isolation cell, after he "became combative during the booking process," according to a release from the Chatham County Sheriff's Office in Savannah, Georgia. During the altercation, officials say, three deputies were injured, including a female sergeant who suffered a concussion and broken nose.

That doesn't square with family members' description of the 22-year-old, whom they described as a much-loved "geeky kid."The Nigeria native was in Savannah studying computer science.

Ajibade's family has hired Mark O'Mara, a CNN legal analyst who once represented George Zimmerman in the death of Florida teen Trayvon Martin. The attorney hopes to see "discourse of all available information as soon as possible," he told CNN on Tuesday.

Nice!

Jonathan not to be blamed for Nigeria’s woes – Oba Akiolu

Lagos – In the season of politicking, The Oba of Lagos, Oba Railwan Akiolu, on Thursday said that President Goodluck Jonathan should not be blamed for the problems of Nigeria.

Akiolu said this while receiving Jonathan at his palace in Lagos.

He said that many of the problems in the country predated the Jonathan administration.

The President was in Lagos State for the flag-off of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP’s) presidential campaign at the Tafawa Balewa Square.

He was in the Oba’s palace to pay homage to him and seek his blessings before going to the campaign venue.

Akiolu said that fighting corruption was the responsibility of every Nigerian.
“What will be, will be; God Almighty will give the best person the opportunity to lead this country.

Buhari Is Tinubu's Candidate!!

Ekiti State governor, Mr Ayodele Fayose, has described the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Mohammadu Buhari, as the candidate of former Lagos State governor, Senator Bola Tinubu, declaring that “the people of Northern Nigeria will choose their own candidate in 2019, when it will be the turn of the region to produce the president.”

Fayose, who said four years was not too much for the North to wait for the return of the presidency to the region, added that “the unity and stability of the country should be paramount and no Nigerian must be made to see himself or herself as inferior to others as a result of tribal or religious inclination.

Nice one...............

Don't place any stock on MEND's alleged endorsement, Jonathan tells Buhari

Another statement about this MEND endorsement of Buhari. This one is from the presidency...

We have noted with amusement, the vituperations against President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan by the renegade faction of the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND) headed by the convicted terrorist, Henry Okah in a statement issued to endorse the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Gen Buhari.

While we thank all people of the Niger Delta, including the former militants whom MEND claims to represent who have already disassociated themselves from the statement issued by the faceless Jomo Gbomo and reaffirmed their unflinching support for President Jonathan’s re-election, we will like to state that the latest assault on the President by Henry Okah and his stooges did not come as a surprise to us at all.

The Verdict With Edozie: Buhari And The Mystery Certificates

The last on Candidate Buhari's educational Credentials may not have been heard. A supposedly simple matter has now dragged on into 2015, with no imminent sign of abating. It is really sad to note that in the year 2015, in the 21st Century, We are dissipating energy on the Certificates (Minimum of School Certificate Required) of the main opposition Presidential Candidate. Time that should have been used to discuss important issues before the Elections is now being needlessly wasted on this Certificate Controversy. It can now be rightly described as the Buhari Certificate "gate" Scandal.

Late last year, when a former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani-Kayode expressed serious reservations on the educational qualifications of Candidate Buhari, some thought Femi Fani-Kayode threw a needless punch, but, alas, it is increasingly becoming clear that, indeed, Femi Fani-Kayode threw the right punches.
