8 Governors Ask Oyegun To Resign
ABUJA – Crisis rocking the All Progressives Congress, APC appeared to have now sprawled into a full blown war between the governors elected on the party’s platform and the national chairman of the party, Chief John Oyegun with the governors asking him to honorably resign.
The governors who paid a surprised visit to Oyegun at the party’s national secretariat on Tuesday after their meeting with president Mohammadu Buhari were said to have conveyed their demands to the chairman in a closed door meeting they had with him.
The governors who visited Oyegun included Comrade Adams Oshiomhole (Edo), Tanko Al-Makura (Nasarawa), Mallam Nasir El-Rufai (Kaduna), Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola (Osun), Abubakar Sani Bello (Niger) Senator Abiola Ajimobi (Oyo), Atiku Bagudu (Kebbi) and Abubuakar Badaru (Jigawa).
Highly placed party sources revealed that the governors were not happy with Oyegun’s poor handling of the crisis bedeviling APC on the heels of the recent National Assembly elections that enthroned Senator Bukola Saraki and Rep. Yakubu Dogara as senate president and speaker, House of Representatives respectively.

Mystery of An Hero! Blogger shares his encounter with Nigerian legend, Majek Fashek
Investment banker and Blogger Joseph Edgar ran into Nigerian music legend Majek Fashek this morning in Lagos on his way to work. The story he shares is quite sad. Read below...
On my way to work this morning, I spotted a loony figure. Pants sagged, dirty black underwear showing, a caftan perched precariously on his extra lean shoulders, shock of long unkempt dreadlocks cascading down his head and teeth yellowed by years of hard living and a face still surprisingly handsome despite the ravages of illicit living. This was Majek, my hero, the one who brought down the rain.
He it was who redefined Reggae and in that one album forced us to look deep into our consciousness, calling us prisoners of conscience. He it was who took that Bob Marley piece, Redemption Song into the sublime. He infused it with his pangolo rhythm and turned it into an anthem of social and spiritual awakening. Majek was a god, strong Adonis like looks, talent yet to me replicated in our clime and charisma of the gods.
This same Majek, I just saw like that in Fadeyi, begging for ogogoro becuase he did not have 100 Naira to pay for it. I stopped brought out 1,000 Naira and was immediately struck by confusion. Should I give him this money and contribute to his death or should I refuse him and watch him throw a tantrum like a disposed toddler. He saved me the dilemma as he grabbed the money from me and rushed to the ugly, black dirty merchant of death, who gleefully poured him a glass full.
Majek downed the drink and hugged me like I had just saved him from the hang mans noose. I looked deep into his eyes and saw a lost soul. He was actually begging for help, the demon inside of him peered at me from his once very beautiful eyes, daring me to do my worse. Assuring me that he had no intention of leaving this host until it finished it's dreadful task of killing him ever so slowly.
He called me a fine boy and wished he was as good looking as I was, I laughed. A laugh that was more of pity, a laugh that was laced with internal cry of pain. A pain that cascaded through every pain in my body. If only I had one tenth of this talent, I would be far from fadeyi begging for N100 worth of ogogoro.
Did we fail him as Nigerians, did we put an umbrella over the Rainmaker, did the flood of his talent wash away his life, what can be done, do we continue watch him make a mockery of a Life once blessed?
Majek in his destitution represents Nigeria. Blessed with more than enough resources., rich in human capacity, more fertile land than the whole of Asia and filled with gifted and talented people, but yet beggerly and poor. Daily our leaders go to 'jibowu' to beg poorer countries for aid, for debt forgiveness. The contradiction never leaves me. Japan with no known Natural resources is so developed that we can only look in shame.
Majek with all the talents of a thousand people, begging the woman who can't lift a finger beside him for N100, Majek being laughed at by miscreants and being mocked with so much joy by those who were not half as blessed by God.
What can I do, but to write this piece and just walk away, lest his guest demon attempt a move on my life. I saw it and felt it look into my soul and with one withered hand, offered me a shot of the Devils brew. A shot I knew would throw me into the darkest pits of Majeks torture, a shot that will take me spiraling down the tunnels of oblivion, destroying the innocent dependent lives of my children while giving Majek solace that he has finally found a room mate albeit a very reluctant and scared one.
I pray for you sir. I pray God gives you peace. God bless you Majek.Joseph Edgar is an investment banker who writes as a hobby. (The photo above was taken this morning)

Ladies: Which of These 10 Penis Shapes Are Most Pleasurable To You? [EXPLICIT]
Though it’s rarely discussed in public, heterosexual women are attracted to men who are well endowed.
This information is according to a study led by Brian Mautz of Univ. of Ottaw in Canada. His research, published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Science, finds that women rate the attractiveness of males by the size of their penis. “We show that penis size actually is important on some level and, importantly, it interacts with other traits,” says Mautz.
Since we know size is important, we can now discuss the various shapes and how each may provide various forms of pleasure to you. Here are 10 penis shapes and best positions for them that we found on OMG Ghana:
- Banana Shape: The name for this shape is obvious. This kind of penis is shaped just like a banana, they usually bend downward when erect. Now ladies, you need to be careful with this one, they are very deceptive, because when they are erected, it appears small due to the bending nature but when it gets in there, you could be surprised at the length it can go. So be very careful if you want to go doggy on this one, because you might not walk home properly. The best position for this kind of penis is the missionary position. Due to it’s bending nature and the angle the clitoris is located, it will surely be rubbing against your sweet bud throughout the thrusting. It also has the tendency of hitting the G-Spot due to it’s bending nature. Woman on top is also another position that best suits this type of penis.
- Hammer Shape: Ladies, in your life time, you might come across a penis shaped like a hammer, don’t laugh, it really exists. With this type of penis, the head of the penis is big while the shaft is small, giving it that kind of hammer-like look. You can still find a banana shaped penis with a hammer shaped penis or other shapes which also have a hammer shape. Hammer shaped penis are good at every position because you can feel the head touching all the insides of your inner walls, the only disadvantage is that, you might not get that clitoral stimulation during intercourse due to the size of the shaft, but it can surely hit that G-spot. Deep penetrations are not good for hammer shaped penises, shallow penetrations are the best since the G-spot is not that far and due to the shape of the head, it can easily rub against the G-spot.
- “C” Shape: This type of penis is shaped like the letter C bending to the right when erect. Usually some men develop this kind of shape due to a disease known as Peyronie’s disease. Others get it from accidents, while with some men it’s because of how they hide their boner in their pants, bending it to the right. If you recollect above, I stated the penis does not have a bone in it and so the direction you give to it is the angle it will grow to. C shaped penises are not all that satisfying but when it comes to the spooning position, you will love it. Just in case you don’t know what the spooning position is, it’s when the man penetrates from behind while they both lie side ways on the bed. The saddle position is also good for the C shaped penis. In the saddle position, the man sits on a chair or sofa, while the woman sits on it side ways. Some women might find it weird but what you need to know is that, when the penis enters the vagina, usually because there’s no bones in it, the vagina is able to correct some of these shapes, thereby straightening it.
- “S” Shape: If you thought the ‘C’ shaped penis was weird then wait till you hear about the ‘S’ shaped. This type of penis is shaped like the letter ‘S’, bending to the right and then to the left and to the right again. Women who have ever come across this type of penis usually write it off as it will be unable to perform but surprisingly they do perform. The ‘S’ shaped penis is not all that satisfying but they are good at giving you that tingling effect and it also depends on the man. Some men are good at using what they have, if you come across one of them, then that’s lucky for you. It’s also because of an accident, a circumcision gone wrong or bad habit of storing the member.
- Aliguntugui: Please note, this has nothing in common with the song, “aliguntugui”. This penis is shaped like the soar sop, hence the name. Aliguntugui is the local name for a sour sop in the Ga language from West Africa, Ghana. The fruit popularly known among Ghanaian folks as “sweet apple”. This type of penis is what we will simply term as a “Fat Penis”, it’s usually short, measuring about 4 to 5 inches in length but very wide and big in width. The width sometimes measures between 4 to 6 inches depending on the man and during intercourse, it feels like when you have your mouth full with water. It’s the kind of penis that enters you and you feel like you’re in the labour theater about to give birth. Any position is good for this kind of penis, so far as you have a wide opening and it definitely will give you that satisfaction because it will fill every nook and cranny of your vagina, scraping all your inner walls. If you don’t lubricate much during sex, then I won’t advice you to attempt this kind of penis but if you still want to be adventurous, you can go for a lubricant, they are available in pharmacy shops.
- Mushroom Shape: The mushroom shaped penis is slightly similar to the hammer shaped penis, the only difference is the mushroom shaped penis are usually small in size and also the head is more like an umbrella, just as a mushroom is shaped. The best position for this kind of penis is the doggy style because usually they don’t hurt that much and in the doggy position, they give you much satisfaction because during thrusting, the head will be rubbing against your clitoris giving you that sweet sensation you always crave for.
- Pencil Shape: This type of penis is the type that appears to be very straight but needs a closer look to ascertain it’s straightness but at a distance they appear very straight and slim. Sometimes it’s difficult to separate the head from the shaft, it all appears to be on the same level. Usually they are long and penetration from this kind of penis can hit the cervix directly causing pain for some women, just like poking someone’s eye with a pencil. If you’re a woman with a wide opening, it’s advisable to avoid this kind of penis because it can hardly give you that kind of satisfaction but the position to go for with this type is the woman on top. This gives you the opportunity to control distance it can travel but if you are carried away by the excitement and end up poking places it’s not suppose to, that will be your own headache. Doggy style is a no! no! for this type but spooning is okay with it.
- Carrot Shape: The carrot shaped is one of the most loved penis by women, due to the gradual satisfaction it provides as the heat gets on. This type of penis has a smaller head with a bigger shaft. The shaft is rather bigger than the head. Unlike the hammer and mushroom head, you don’t feel it during penetration but as it goes deeper, you begin to feel it occupying all the inner walls. Deep penetration is good for this type of penis and so it’s good to go for doggy with this type, if you ever come across one. Missionary also works perfect with is type of penis. Aside that, it’s also okay with all types of positions too, but the most satisfying are the earlier mentioned ones.
- “Veiny” Penis: This type of penis could be any of the types above but has a lot of veins that clearly shows when erected making it look pumped up and rough when erected. It looks very rough with full of veins well pumped up and ready to perform. Most women love to see the veins on a man’s member and goes crazy when she sees it lined with all those veins. If you’re that type, then you might want to search for this kind of penis. It’s very satisfying as the rough nature of the penis makes it feel like it’s vibrating within you giving you that sensation. All positions you come up with is okay with this type of penis. You will still get the satisfaction you need.
- Boomerang Shape: A boomerang is a thrown tool that is shaped like a stick broken in the middle and turns back to the owner after hitting it’s target, don’t get too excited, this penis does not do that. This penis is just shaped like the tool slightly similar to the ‘C’ shaped penis but this one appears to be like it’s broken in the middle making it bend to the right or left. The bend side can also give you and extra satisfaction apart from what the real one will do because it makes it seem like an extra meat lodging in a different direction. The penis usually develop this shape due to the Peyronie’s disease or how it is stored in the pants. You must be creative and innovative if you stumble against this one. You decide which best will suit.
Abiola, June 12 and the road not taken
Twenty-two years down the road, it is necessary to evaluate and understand the centrality of Chief Moshood Abiola’s sacrifice in bringing us the Fourth Republic. Chief Abiola was the winner of the June 12 1993 presidential election whose victory was voided by the military dictatorship of General Ibrahim Babangida. It was Abiola’s and other heroes’ and heroines’ sacrifice that has given us the long democratic dispensation we have been enjoying since 1999. The Abacha coup of November 1993 was a turning point in the struggle of Abiola to claim the presidency of Nigeria. With his victory in that year’s presidential election, Abiola became Nigeria’s President-presumptive and Alhaji Babagana Kingibe, the Vice-President presumptive. Then Abacha seized power and the struggle entered a new phase.

President Buhari rejects proposal for Chad, Niger to head central force against Boko Haram
President Muhammadu Buhari has rejected a proposal for an alternate leadership between Nigeria, Chad, Niger, Cameroun and Benin, of a joint military force against Boko Haram.
At a meeting with leaders of the Lake Chad nations Thursday in Abuja, Mr. Buhari insisted Nigeria must be the sole leader of the joint military operation.

BREAKING: Alleged 19.2bn fraud: Court dismisses charge against Sylva
http://dailypost.ng/2015/06/10/breaking-alleged-19-2bn-fraud-court-dismisses-charge-against-sylva/
True Confession: Why I had sex with my Son
I’m a middle-aged woman. I currently reside in Bwari Area Council of the FCT- Abuja. I’m a member of one of the new generation churches, and a church worker.
After my first Son was born over 25 years ago, we stopped having other issues. My husband and I had visited several prayer houses around the country. We have even being to Synagogue Church of All Nations, to see TB Joshua, but we couldn’t see him in person. Different Pastors have prayed for us, and we truthfully exhibited high level of patience, waiting for God’s response. I had met pastors and I had met PASTORS. 40 percent of the pastors we met had made advances at me, even at my age. I realized that most of these Pastors are truly not who they claim they are. ‘’See finish’’ is what I think was my experience in their hands. I do not need to talk too much about the anointed ones, but the warning is that we all have to be careful while dealing with majority of them.

President who has to take himself out of the game
NO honeymoon for this President. This conclusion predates Muhammadu Buhari’s assumption of the reins of government as 5th President of Nigeria’s Presidential democratic experience, and 4th of the current fourth democratic dispensation.
It is eight days today. His first sets of official steps are attracting immense public reactions, expectedly way more than his historical victory in the recent Presidential election.
And this includes public perception of his ceremonial speeches – Inaugural Address delivered at Eagle Square and Banquet Speech at the Inaugural Gala Night to mark his administration’s inception (Friday, May 29, 2015).
Whether or not the new All Progressive Congress (APC) administration “hit the ground running” is already a matter of intense public debate.
“Buhari ought to step out at once with his Secretary to the Federal Government. Why the delay?” It is a measure of public expectation that the President has to “navigate hard, and act fast from the outset, if he must move politicians to change old ways.”
His predecessor, former President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, had about seven months “settle down” romance period with the citizens. Buhari has no such luxury. It is not about impatience: the situation on ground is pathetic.
For example, power supply is now virtually non-existent. Fuel is a scarce commodity. These days, in Lagos, motorists abandon vehicles near or scattered around major petrol- filling stations. The arrival of a tanker is welcomed like a
Christmas gift – with profuse thanks.
Ironically, while people wait for the new government with high expectations, the combination of power failure and energy shortage is “disciplining” the populace by curtailment.
People seem compelled to take second look at riotous habits in homes. Bad driving habits of the Lagos motorist, such as over-speeding are tame for now.
The streets these days are hardly jammed, except in busy period. “Cost counting”- not a thing people readily do in these parts – may well be hitting more grounds.
High expectations versus realism
Citizens are just waiting and hoping for quick action. The APC change campaign had resonated so much with the larger electorate that the term “hit the ground running” acquired new currency. It set the stage for the party one-touch election victory.
However, the nature and form of the promised “rescue mission” is stirring fresh rounds of debate. Buhari disappointed many, particularly in the Southern part of the country (including his newfound South West support base) with his Inaugural Address, by failing to utter words like “true federalism” “proper federal set-up” or ”fiscal federalism.
“Leading by personal example,” a major feature of his campaign rhetoric, which was also a central thrust of his Inaugural Speech, is rated inadequate even on account of his ant-corruption stance. “I believe that when they (Nigerians) see a leadership that is open, transparent, progressive, and purposeful, Nigerians will support any action or step to reorder the system and structure without necessarily bring the roof down on everybody,” he had said after he won the Presidential election.
