Amazing! ISIS Teen With Bomb Vest Surrenders Himself To Security Agents, Says I Don’t Want To Die

A Syrian boy, Usaid Barho being held by Isis has managed to escape their camp after he volunteered to be a suicide bomber. The boy aged 14, who joined the group because he believed they practiced Islam, was later brainwashed to see Shi’ites as their enemies, and was also told if he wasn’t ready to fight them, the Shi’ites were ready to rape his mother.

In the camp, he was given an option of becoming a fighter or a suicide bomber, but he turned down being a fighter because he might be killed at a battle front.

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Kaduna State says it will focus on house-to-house campaign to reclaim Zaria federal constituency seat in the House of Representatives. The party’s secretary in Kaduna State, Alhaji Kabiru Balla, told newsmen shortly after inaugurating the campaign team for Alhaji Umar Ibrahim-Rabagardama, the party’s candidate for the seat.
“It is now time to step-up effort for house-to-house campaign to enable us get more genuine supporters to win various positions in the area come 2015,’’ he said.
The secretary charged the newly inaugurated team to evolve sensitisation programmes that would make people at various levels to vote for the party.

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has accused the PDP-led Federal Government of trying to suppress the audit report on the missing $20 billion oil money, saying the deadline for the release of the report, which was set by the government itself, has come and gone.

In a statement issued in Ilorin on Saturday by its National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the party said Minister of Finance Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala herself had said, at the Financial Times Africa Summit 2014 in London in October, that the report would be ready in November 2014.

It quoted the Minister as saying at the Forum on Oct. 6, 2014: ''We engaged PwC (PriceWaterHouseCoopers) with the Auditor General of the Federation taking the lead. They asked for 16 weeks to complete the work; they have spent 11 or 12 weeks so far and they will be done in a couple of weeks.”

Understanding the Pareto Principle for Politics

Let’s call it the faith-based equivalent of a cage match: on one side of our national Mall, this afternoon, V. Gene Robinson, the openly gay Episcopal bishop of New Hampshire, will deliver the invocation at the Beyonce-Bono-Springsteen inaugural celebration at the Lincoln Memorial.
Two days later, the Rev. Rick Warren, the prominent mega-church pastor and high-profile crusader against same-sex marriage from California’s Orange County, will deliver the invocation at the inauguration of President-elect Barack Obama on the West Front of the United States Capitol.
While putting aside the 555-foot phallic symbol that rests squarely between those two locations, and its frightening potential as a symbol of our sexual politics, I’d like to introduce a third name that has not been introduced thus far to this ecumenical face-off: Vilfredo Frederico Damaso Pareto.

Akinwunmi Ambode

The Lagos State governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Akinwunmi Ambode, has alleged that the Federal Government owed the state N51bn.

Ambode stated that there has been no meaningful federal project in Lagos State since 1999.

He therefore urged Lagosians to vote for the APC at the governorship and presidential elections next year in order to make the state and federal governments to work in synergy for the progress of the state.

Ambode, who is a former Accountant-General of the state, said this during the ‘10,000-man March’ organised by the Ambode Youth Initiative in Lagos on Saturday.

He said, “If you want heavy traffic on the Third Mainland Bridge to stop, ensure that the APC gets to the centre. They (Federal Government) don’t allow us to make any meaningful changes on that bridge.

*‘If you think I am a spent force in politics, wait till the 2015 polls’
By Bilesanmi Olalekan
Chief Olu Falae, an economist, was Secretary to the General Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida-led Federal Military Government.
In 1999, he ran against PDP’s Olusegun Obasanjo as the joint candidate of the AD-APP in that year’s presidential election.

Pick and choose your way to your best year YET.

With 2015 right around the corner, it’s a great time to look at the year we’ve had and make a few tweaks in preparation for the one ahead. While we all have our own personal goals (mark my words that this will be the year I obtain the Madonna “Blonde Ambition” body I have been coveting since, well, The Blonde Ambition Tour) there are some resolutions that have this wonderful, one-size-fits-all appeal. Read below for 40 a la carte resolutions guaranteed to help make 2015 the best year yet. Pick and choose a few, or, if you’re ready for a total life change, commit to all of them!
1. Accept that you are now entering the next year of your life and your status quo should change. You are taking the lessons of the past year (and those before it) and making tweaks, for you, and not anyone else.

Indonesia has suspended the search for a missing AirAsia plane that disappeared in bad weather en route from Indonesia to Singapore, in the third crisis for a Malaysian carrier this year.

The search halted at 5.30pm on Sunday (1030 GMT) as night fell, but would resume at 7am on Monday, or even earlier if the weather was good, Indonesian transport ministry official Hadi Mustofa said.
The Airbus A320-200, carrying 162 people, went missing after air traffic controllers lost contact with the twin-engine aircraft around an hour after it left Juanda international airport at Surabaya in East Java at 5:20am on Sunday (2220 GMT Saturday).
Shortly before disappearing, AirAsia said pilots of the plane had asked permission from Jakarta air traffic control to change course and climb above bad weather in an area noted for severe thunderstorms.
The airline, giving a revised breakdown of nationalities, said 155 of those on board Flight QZ8501 were Indonesians, with three South Koreans and one person each from Singapore, Malaysia, Britain and France.
Sixteen of those on board were children and one was an infant.

Mr Akin Osuntokun is not new on the nation’s political terrain. He operated at the highest level of government when he was Political Adviser to former President Olusegun Obasanjo. Before then, he was the Managing Director of the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN). In this interview, Osuntokun diagnoses the polity, fielding questions on the forthcoming elections and the contenders. Excerpts:
The N21b donated to the PDP presidential campaign has generated interest among a section of the public with some people saying those who donated the money committed illegality. Some people in fact called it obscene while a group of lawyers were reported as calling for the prosecution of the PDP and some of the donors. Should mere donation to a campaign generate hues and hues?
With due respect, Nigerians tend to be sensational even at the risk of sounding hypocritical, most of the time. I was a director of a presidential campaign like this in 2002. I can tell you that just paying like N1000 or N2000 per agent in all the polling booths all over the country amounted to about N10b. That is just paying them, all over the country. When people hear that it is N21b, may be it is generating reaction because it is PDP.
Everything the party does, they think it must be discredited but, more importantly, I think I have mentioned this fact once which is that there is a lack of rigor and seriousness about the way commentators and observers respond to issues. They are given to cheap and careless talk. I would have expected that there are relevant facts that should be taken into consideration. One of such is, what does the law permit?

Are You Living an Urgent Life or an Important Life? by James Clear

There are moments throughout our lives, and they happen almost every day, where we catch a glimpse of what we are capable of, a flicker of what we are destined to be, or a hint of what we desire to become.
It could be a burst of inspiration for that book we always wanted to write. Or the yearning to finally lose the extra weight. Or the feeling of dissatisfaction with our job and an urge to build something of our own.
These are important desires and they call to us all the time. But right before we answer their call, the urgency of life tends to get in the way. Your phone rings. Your car is low on gas. Your boss drops a tight deadline on you. And so we delay our dreams one more day for the sake of putting out another fire.
How do we get past this? How do we start living the life that’s important to us instead of just responding to the everyday emergencies?

Chief Olusegun Obasanjo

How Goodluck Jonathan dug deeper in a hole
And the scenario to come
By Jide Ajani
This story examines former President Olusegun Obasanjo’s latest dance steps, a break-dance of twists and turns with one suspected objective: the actualisation of a self-serving agenda that is at variance with the projection of a united Nigeria. Yet, a more perceptive incumbent President would have pulled all the stops to successfully rein-in Obasanjo.
Instead, aides and confidants, who are far, very far, from being adroit at statecraft, continue to mislead President Goodluck Jonathan, as part of a turf battle that is raging inside Aso Rock Presidential Villa. Interestingly, the perceived shoddiness of the Presidency, a Presidency foisted on Nigerians by Obasanjo and which he ought to be working to adequately address, is being allowed to flounder because of self-conceited considerations by political leaders who ought to work at nation-building. Said to be desperately working for a stalemate immediately after February’s presidential election, some political leaders in Nigeria, as this report will show, are going for broke.

Shocking! Another Asian airliner has gone missing: AirAsia flight QZ8501 lost contact with air traffic control at 7:24 a.m. local time on Sunday, AirAsia reported about four hours after the plane disappeared en route to Singapore.
Sunday’s missing AirAsia flight was traveling between Surabaya, in Indonesia, and Singapore. There were 155 passengers and seven crew on board the Airbus A320-200, officials have said.
An AirAsia official told the media on Sunday that the plane had requested “an unusual route” before air traffic control lost contact with QZ8501 over the Java Sea. However, an Indonesia Transport Ministry spokesperson later clarified that the pilot’s request was permission to change altitude due to bad weather, Steve Herman reported for the Voice of America.

The Academic Staff Union of Universities(ASUU) has listed the many offenses committed by Lagos State University's Vice Chancellor, Prof John Obafunwa, saying the institution is on the brink of another crisis as a result of the confusion and distrust allegedly being created by him.
