THE LATEST STRATEGY DEPLOYED BY THE BOKO HARAM,READ AND BE VIGILANT.
Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) Frank Mba explained why terrorists were using female suicide bombers and spoke about the new strategy police employed to fight their new tactics.Following several attacks carried out in a similar manner Mba yesterday said to journalists:
“Established international terror organisations use female suicide bombers, the major reason is because women generally raise fewer suspicion, particularly when there are security layers. If you have been following the trend of terrorism worldwide, you will understand that the use of a female suicide bomber is not new. But, it is a new trend in our own part of the world.”

MEET THE WORLD'S POOREST PRESIDENT.
Here is the story of the poorest president in the world.If this story has any truth in it I think this man is a saint.Hope you enjoy yourself.
You might not believe it, but Jose Mujica, president of Uruguay since 2010, is known to be the world’s poorest president. Jose donates more then of 90% of his $12,000 per month salary to benefit the poor and to help small entrepreneurs. If we need more of anything in this world, it would be more people like this! This man doesn’t put value on his appearance or clothes. He is criticized for his posture and clothes, but Jose puts more value on other things in life instead. World's-Poorest-President-1 World's-Poorest-President-2 Before his presidency, he was a guerilla fighter for Tupamaros, which acted like “Robin hood.” They literally robbed evil banks, gun clubs, and other businesses to give to the poor. He truly believed that his value was not in gaining more money, it was in the

NIGERIAN WITCHES AND WIZARDS ASSOCIATION OF NIGERIA PREDICT 2015 ELECTION.
As Nigerians, both home and abroad, continue to wait anxiously for the 2015 general elections, the Witches & Wizards Association of Nigeria (WITZAN) has predicted what would happen after the polls.According to a communique signed by Dr Okhue Iboi, President WITZAN, the All Progressives Congress national leader, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu will be betrayed in 2015 by his close aides.
“Tinubu will be betrayed. He will be sold out by those he trusted. This betrayal will affect his political empire. Tinubu’s political dynasty is under threat of crumbling.
“Tinubu is a good man, but the bitter truth he must swallow today is that APC is going nowhere. Many top notchers of PDP that are in APC now will go back to PDP. Witches said so in November last year and it happened.
“I’m telling the whole world again today that many former PDP leaders that are now in APC will betray Tinubu and other APC leaders, they will go back to PDP this year, and before 2015 general elections,” the communique read.
Commenting on why they decided to hold the meeting, Iboi said the association had a meeting following a distress call by witches in Yobe, Adamawa and Borno.He added that the issue of Boko Haram Insurgent was the highlight of their discussions.Witches and Wizards in Nigeria are deeply worried by what is going on in the country especially Boko Haram insurgency. As stakeholders in the Nigerian project, we can no longer afford to fold our hands while the nation burns. Enough is enough,” he said.

THIS LADY IS 32 YEARS OLD HAVING A 21 YEAR OLD SON.
"WAIT!" I exclaimed to the young lady I had just met 30 minutes prior. "You have a 21-year old son! And you're 32 years old! Please explain!"
Last year, I had the pleasure of meeting a fellow LinkedIn Influencer and author, Claire Diaz-Ortiz. @Claire, the 32-year old graduate of Stanford and Oxford (MBA), was one of the early employees of Twitter, responsible for innovation there, and is probably best known for personally getting the Pope to join Twitter. I was blown away by Claire's passion for all things: family, social media, philanthropy, writing, and learning.
But when I found out she had a 21 year old son at the ripe age of 32, I had to learn more. It turns out, of course, that he is a foster son, and their story is an amazing one. It's such a great story that Claire recently co-wrote a memoir with her 21 year old son Sammy.

A Malaysian passenger plane which has 280 passengers and 15 crew members on board has reportedly crashed in East Ukraine, near the Russian border.All passengers on the flight are feared dead, The Independent reports.According to reports, the plane was travelling from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur.The picture above is from an alleged video footage of the crash, which has been posted on Youtube.

LAGOS STATE GOVERNMENT 10 DAYS PATERNITY LEAVE FOR FATHERS.
Nigerians, do you remember when Bellanaija recently talked about Paternity Leave? Well the Lagos State Government has approved 10 days for men.All male civil servants will get a 10-day paternity leave, while female workers will get an extended maternity leave – six months.At a press conference held at the Bagauda Kaltho Press Centre, Alausa, the state Head of Service Josephine Williams said the new leave regime was meant to reduce the negative implication of the extensive work life of parents, who are civil servants in the state.
“A female officer shall be entitled to twenty-four weeks maternity leave with full pay in case of her first two deliveries. The said leave shall commence, at least two weeks before the expected delivery date; a male officer, to who a new baby (or babies in case of multiple births) is born shall be entitled to 10 working days.” she said.Williams also stated that the subsequent deliveries by any employees would attract only 12 weeks maternity leave for the female officer, while the male officer would not be entitled to the 10-day leave.

CHECK OUT THIS NIGERIAN STUDENT WHO BUILT A SOLAR POWERED CAR.
A young Nigerian student doing his last year in electronic and electrical engineering at Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, has built a car operating on solar power.Segun Oyeyiola explains that his car uses both wind and solar energy for the functioning. Moreover, the man developed an application for its installation in the car, which app will inform the driver about the battery level, weather conditions and other essential parameters.
In an interview to allAfrica.com Segun spoke about how he came up with the idea and eventually embodied it. He confessed his first motivation was to eradicate the causes of climate change resulting in fuel combustion.
"In the course of my research, I found out that our regular cars contribute immensely to climate change… If we could manufacture cars that do not use fuel or reduce the number of cars that use fuel; our world will be a better place for us to live in." The student had to work and study hard to achieve his aim, which was even harder because of absence of electricity most of the time.

An armed robbery gang who specialize in dressing up as women and robbing unsuspecting victims have been arrested by the Oyo State police Command. They were paraded recently where they told their stories. Vanguard reportsAn unsuspecting womanizer would easily fall into their traps seeing their feminine faces made-up with cosmetics, with weave-on hairdo that dangles on both sides of their broad shoulders.
Their coated lips look inviting. No doubt, countless men must have fallen prey to them. Many passersby who thronged the state headquarters of the Police command at Eleiyele, Ibadan to catch a glimpse of these attractive “women” could not hide their disbelief.Though, their chests were flat which should convince doubting Thomases that the suspects were not women, some still insisted on seeing their private parts due to their looks.But, behind these deceptive looks are more than meets the ordinary eye. The hearts of both Omooba Oyewole and Lawal Kabir are fortified with cold steel. They are suspected dare-devil robbers. If they have conscience, it must be made of solid concrete.One of the suspects, Lawal Kabir whose eyelids blink momentarily like a doll in the old Kingsway Store claims to be a devout Muslim and considers only Fridays and the Ramadan period as sacred days in the whole year when he thinks he should not engage in armed robbery.
