GIST : Kas - Tonto Dikeh Is Not My Kind Of Girl

In 2011, Tonto Dikeh announced that she was in the studio with top music artiste and producer, Kas of Kas Beats.



At the album launch of the artiste in November 2011, Tonto was physically present at the event to support Kas.

Soon after, there were rumour that both entertainers were dating. Though the rumour didn't last, but some believed they must have 'crossed' each other.

While a guest on an Eko FM radio programme on Wednesday, September 12, 2012, Kas disclosed that he never at any time dated the controversial actress.

He told the show presenter that Tonto is not his kind of girl just as he is also not the kind of guy for the pretty Petro-Chemical graduate of Rivers State University of Science and Technology (RSUTH). He also stated that the two of them are just friends and nothing more.

Meanwhile, Kas is now set to launch his album come October 1, 2012. The album is titled '@IAMKASBEATS'. It would be the second album the singer is launching in 12 months.

PHOTOS : Kourtney Kardashian Gives Birth on National TV, Pulls Baby Out With Her Own Hands

Kourtney Kardashian did it again! For the second time, the reality star gave birth and pulled the baby out all by herself — making her labor seem both incredibly easy and incredibly bizarre.

The entire process was documented on last night's episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians. And if millions of viewers weren't enough, Kourtney was also joined by her entire family in the delivery room when she gave birth to baby girl Penelope Scotland Disick.

That's right, the whole gang was there: Kim, Rob, and Khloe Kardashian, as well as Kris, Bruce, Kendall, and Kylie Jenner… oh yeah, and the baby's father: Scott Disick. Thankfully it seems like things couldn't have gone smoother for Kourtney and her new baby girl!

PHOTO : 8 Years Old Girl Bathed House maid With Hot Water For Not Making Indomie On Time

On lookers were held with shock and disbelief on Friday, September 7 at Iyaganku Police Division when an eight-year-old girl, Ewaoluwa (surname withheld), was brought to the station for changing the looks of her mother's house maid when she allegedly bathed the Togolese girl with hot water for not responding to her call that she needed to eat Indomie in time.

In a case that was said to have been reported on that Friday by a member of Child's Protection Network, (a non governmental organisation),Pastor Marcus William, the eight-year-old girl had allegedly poured hot water on the head, neck and back side of the 14-year-old house maid, whose name was given as Mary Komule, on September 5 for not answering her in time when she asked Mary to make her Indomie.

Acting on this information, policemen and women attached to the Juvenile Welfare section of Iyaganku went to the girl's parents' house at Olaniran Fagbemi Street, Joyce B area of Ibadan immediately after receiving the information, but was said to have been resisted by the girl's mother who reportedly told his gateman to tell the police that she was not around.

It was further gathered that the police officers spent close to four hours outside the gate and had prepared to obtain a search warrant from a court when the woman's lawyer came around and persuaded her to follow the law enforcement agents.

In her statement to the police at Iyaganku, Ewaoluwa claimed that she wanted to eat Indomie and informed the housemaid, but she was busy cleaning the floor on which palm oil poured.

The housemaid, Mary, had reportedly put some water on the fire to further clean the floor when she noticed the floor was still slippery.

Angered by the fact that her request was not promptly attended to, the little girl had reportedly ordered Mary to kneel down and put her hands behind her back, after which she tied them with a scarf.

She was said to have claimed that she first poured cold water on the housemaid but when she saw that the teenager did not feel any pain, she took the water the maid was boiling on the fire and poured it on the helpless girl, right from the head to the back of her neck.

Writhing in pain, Mary had reportedly robbed the scalded skin with her hands, resulting in the skin peeling off.

Though the girl's mother was said to be away in Lagos when the incident occurred, Ewaoluwa, when asked whether she was punished for her misdeeds, told the police that her mother scolded her by asking her to 'face the wall'.

The mother of the girl who was crying profusely as the crowd booed her and her daughter told the police that she took Mary to a nearby chemist for treatment when she returned from her journey and was informed of the occurrence. She also said that the girl had been with her for about six moths, adding that she didn't want to come out to the police initially because she was scared.

However, the housemaid countered her, saying that she was not taken anywhere for treatment and had been in pain until the time of her rescue. Her burns were only dabbed with Gentian Violet when Crime Features saw the girl at the police station.

When asked why she didn't resist the abuse on her, Mary said her mistress had strictly warned her not to touch the girl on any account.

Sources living around the home of the girl's parents said that the housemaid had once attempted to run away but was held back by people.

Since then, they said, she had been under close monitoring by her mistress. The gateman of the house also told the police that he had only worked with the family for nine days before the incident but had never seen the girl outside until that day.

Confirming the story, the Deputy Commissioner of Police, Mr Clement Adoda said that the housemaid had been handed over to the Ministry of Women Affairs in Oyo State while the NAPTIP had also been contacted so that proper repatriation of the girl back to her country could be effected. Mr Adoda added that the little suspect and her mother had been granted bail while the case would be charged to court after the resumption of the legal year.

PHOTOS : Workers drowned and killed at Chinese Factory in Ikeja. VIEWERS DISCRETION ADVISED!

Someone sent a mail to Blogger, Ladun Liadi telling her about how some Nigerians were killed and drowned in the pool in a Chinese factory in Ikeja Lagos. The family are suspecting a foul player. Read the senders mail below.

''This is to notify you on this story that just got to me from my tribes man, whose brother is one of the dead boys. According to him, his brother worked with a Chinese company in Ikeja (name removed), and he worked at the factory sometime last week, and slept over. His where about could not be determined till the following evening, where his body and that of his friend were found inside the company's swimming pool with blood coming out of their ears, nostrils, and mouth.

To my best of knowledge (i lost a brother to the pool, i.e got drowned). When a human drowns blood does not come out from those places, what we suspect is foul play, perhaps they must have seen or heard something they were not supposed to see or hear, or perhaps the company is into shady deals.


Please I would like to let the country know about the ills of most of these companies, we know they have strong backups, more so this is just one case we know, the next may be someone close to you.


Thank you for the job you guys have been doing for the country.''

CELEBRITY BIRTHDAY : Innocent Ujah Idibia better known as 2Face today, Tuesday, September 18 clocks 37

The 'African pride' was born in Jos, Plateau State in 1975. Little did the Idoma, Benue State artiste know he would be this great when he formed the defunct R&B/hip hop group 'Plantashun Boyz' with Blackface and Face, who later joined them when they (2Face and Blackface) met Face in Lagos.

2Face attended Mount Saint Gabriel's Secondary School, Makurdi, Benue State. He then proceeded to the Institute of Management & Technology, Enugu (IMT), where he met Blackface, for a pre-National Diploma course in Business Administration and Management.

Unfortunately, 2Face didn't graduate, but that didn't stop him from achieving success in his music career.

While at IMT, 2Face did some jingles for GB Fan Club aired on Enugu State Broadcasting Services (ESBS). The name '2Face' was coined in 1996. The name came about because he aimed at differentiating his personal life with his business life.

He has released some smash hit songs in which 'African Queen' has been the biggest. He is the CEO of Hypertek Entertainment which has Dammy Krane as its artiste. 2Face is known for helping young talents grow in the industry. He has featured in many songs of up and coming artistes.

RELATIONSHIP : 5 Things You Should Never Do with your Ex After Calling It Quits

A breakup is one of the most stressful things any of us can go through in our lives. Even when your rational mind knows the relationship is toxic, it's hard to let go of the emotional and fearful thoughts telling us life without the relationship is impossible. But have no fear. New beginnings lie behind the break.

Think of your relationship split like cutting off a malignant tumor. There is pain while it is being removed, and that hurt can last for a while. But in time, as your heart repairs, you will begin to feel better. As cliche as it may sound, time heals all wounds. {relatedarticles}

Be patient as you evolve through this life-changing event, keeping in mind these 5 things you should never do right after calling it quits.

1. Don't Use Selective Memory

When that lonely feeling arises (and it will), you need to know that your mind is likely to wander back to a point in your relationship when all was well and the two of you were happy together. At times like these, for whatever reason, our memories often will recall only the good times. You'll start wondering why you two ever decided to split in the first place.

Reminiscing about the good times is really a regression of your emotional progress. You should never allow yourself to call or go visit your ex in a moment of weakness. This will just set you back emotionally and you'll have cheated yourself out of time.

There are reasons you two are not together anymore, and you need to bring those to mind forcefully. Don't forget all those irritating habits he or she had that you could not stand; remember all the fights.

If you think there may be a possibility that the two of you could mend your differences, you still need to give yourself a break away from each other. Your ex needs to earn his way back into your life and prove he is worth it.{relatedarticles}

2. Don't Be Friends

For the first few months following a breakup, you should not socialize together if at all possible. You should try to have no contact with your ex — no meeting up in person or contacting each other over the phone, via email, text messaging or connecting on social networking sites. As the saying goes, old habits die hard. It is just too easy to fall back into the relationship. It's like an old, comfortable chair.

But you've got to remember that chair is full of dander and parasites that you really don't want crawling all over your skin! Plus, it can be just torturous to your heart to be around your ex, especially if he's the flirtatious type. Don't do that to yourself. And never, ever fall into the trap of indulging in one last romp for "old time's sake." What's done is done — and that includes your s*xual encounters with him.

Keep your distance and spend time with the best company around – you! Do all the things you love. You may have to relearn who you really are and find out what makes you happy. Being a couple is all about compromise. Now you can concentrate selfishly on yourself, so do it!

3. Don't Keep Remembrances in Plain Sight

A great first step in getting past the relationship is to go through your home, phone, car, wallet, etc. and put away all those things that remind you of your former partner. From photographs and gifts to his favorite foods and CDs, all these items can slow your emotional growth. By removing them from plain sight, this action alone reaffirms your intention to move on with your life.{relatedarticles}

Although you may feel like trashing some of these things, it is best to store them in a box that you can put away for the time being. Remember, the moments you spent with him are a part of your life's history and probably have changed you in one way or another.

After all the emotion is gone and you've transitioned past this point in your life, you may want to revisit the box and the memories it holds. Then you will have a clear understanding of what you want to keep and what you might want to give away.

4. Don't Jump Into Another Relationship

It is so easy to replace your ex with another warm body, and many of us do just that. Unfortunately for you and for the new beau, the relationship is more than likely doomed. Most people coming out of a long-term relationship are not emotionally ready to hold up their end of the bargain in a new commitment. There is too much baggage that hasn't been sorted through and resolved.

Keep in mind, this doesn't mean you can't go out. By all means, have a dating frenzy. Meet new people, experience new things and enjoy the company of others. Take the time to have fun before becoming exclusive with someone new. You need to get to know yourself again before you can give that next guy the best of you.

5. Don't Isolate Yourself

Feelings of depression are normal when a relationship ends. This may lead you to crawl under the covers and sleep for days or stay up all hours of the night watching romantic movies. You may not want to communicate with anyone, but it is important that you do.{relatedarticles}

Isolating yourself is really a form of punishment. You have to be willing to ask for help. Look for a friend or family member with a shoulder you can cry on. You may even want to seek out a professional counselor to work through these feelings of despair and loneliness.

The first few months after a breakup will be full of ups and downs. Bear in mind, you are going through something traumatic. Give yourself permission to be sad, depressed and confused as well as relieved, happy and excited about what lies ahead. Just know that the pain will eventually lessen. It will not be like this for the rest of your life. You will heal and be OK.

And always remember, an ending is just the start of new beginning

GIST : Rev Chris Okotie - Why I sent My Ex Wife Stephanie Packing

Since ending his four year marriage to Stephanie Henshaw in June this year, Pastor Chris Okotie has never really opened up about what led to his decision to end his marriage. There has been a lot of speculations in the media and he finally decided to react to some of it. He gave an exclusive interview to City People magazine through a minister in his church, Rev Grace Funmi Paul, a member of House Hold of God for the past 25 years. It's a long interview but I'm just going to pick some parts I think might interest you all. See it below…

Rev Grace Paul: A blind person knows that my pastor loved his wife, Stephanie, passionately. This year before the separation, he had taken her out of the country at least three times to different places like Dubai, US and so on. He loved her, so did the congregation but the bible says that two cannot walk together except they agree. In the establishment of the kingdom of God, the rules change because the rules are made by God and not by man. So, it didn't have to do with what pastor wanted to do, because left to him, his love will keep him struggling and going at it but if God gives him instruction he has to follow it through.

More when you continue…

City People: If I get you correctly, it was Jesus instructions for Pastor Chris to part ways with Stephanie?

Rev Grace: Let me give you a precedent. In the bible, there's a queen called Queen Vershti of Persia. The king invited his wife and said – come woman, I want to show you off to my people and the woman had an attitude. She had pride issues. It was at that point she said to the king "Excuse me, I am making up, how can you be humiliating me by telling me to come and sit down so that people can be looking at me."

So she refused and the people of the kingdom rose up against her, and they said the king must let her go, and that was how Esther came in. That is the principle of The Kingdom. In the two cases of my pastor's former wives, it was an abdication of roles. One was a physical abdication, and the other was a spiritual abdication. In the matters of the Kingdom of God, when you abdicate your position, your position will be taken over, because the calling my pastor has, he is not called to work alone (Linda says – get ready for another pastor Okotie wedding hehe)

City People: In Stephanie's case, was it a case of spiritual or physical abdication?

Rev Grace: Her case was spiritual abdication, but either ways it amounts to the same thing, because the scripture states clearly that if unbelieving departs, let him depart, you are not bound.

CityPeople: Any efforts to patch things up? 

Rev Grace: Spiritual things can not be patched up. When there are two people who are not the same kind, it is not a matter of patching up.

City People: So is the congregation happy that the pastor is single again and is there any plans to replace Stephanie?

Rev Grace: The congregation is not in the position to replace Stephanie. My pastor is a full grown man, and he knows what he's doing. In the case of our pastor's first wife, she insisted that where she wanted to do her church work was in the US. As for Stephanie, I cannot be intruding. As much as I am authorised to do what I am doing, I can't disrespect my pastor and Stephanie. If I begin to give you some details, they would amount to disrespect. My pastor has insisted that they want to keep it private.

City People: Pastor Chris once said that the instruction to marry Stephanie was from God

Rev Grace: If you know my pastor, he is a passionate person. They had a long time relationship before they got married. My pastor is particularly careful about beautiful women because he knows that the devil desires them. So when a beautiful woman has issues in church, he ministers to them, and because he does that, people jump to the conclusion that he sleeps with them, which is not true. Just like Queen Ure, pastor has never had an affair with her, will never have an affair with her because they are not of the same kind

The interview goes on and on…but woh, I'm tired of typing…

GIST : Nigerian Actor Sentenced To 3 Months In Jail For Gay Sex

A 28-year old actor, Bestwood Chukwuemeka was on Monday sentenced to three-month imprisonment by a Karu Senior Magistrates' Court, Abuja, for having sexual intercourse with another man through the anus. The convict, who resides at Gidan Mangoro, had pleaded guilty to having engaged in homosexual acts.

"I am guilty of the charge against me. I  was under the influence of alcohol and I want the court to temper justice with mercy'', he said. The police prosecutor, Mohammed Umar, had told the court that the convict committed the offence in August when the complainant was sleeping in his bed. Homosexual acts, the prosecutor said, was contrary to Section 284 of the Penal Code.

The prosecutor said since Mr. Chukwuemeka had pleaded guilty to the crime he initially denied, the court should try him summarily.

The Senior Magistrate, Nafisatu Buba, sentenced him to three-month imprisonment without an option of fine.

"This would serve as warning to other youths who hide under the influence of alcohol to commit crimes,'' she said.

When he was first arraigned in early September, Mr. Chukwuemeka pleaded not guilty, saying, "I came back drunk from the night club and thought I was sleeping on the same bed with my girl-friend and I started romancing her."

At that hearing, Mrs Buba, had ruled that alcohol should not be seen as an excuse for committing the offence, but then granted the accused bail in the sum of N200,000 with two sureties in like sum, with one of the sureties being a civil servant on Grade Level 09.

However, when the case was heard Monday, the actor suddenly pleaded guilty, and Mrs Buba summarily tried him, sentencing him to three-month imprisonment. Homosexuality and lesbianism are seriously frowned at in Nigeria.

In November, the Nigerian Senate passed a strict law banning same-sex marriage and public display of affection by gays in Nigeria.

The bill – Same Sex Marriage (prohibition) bill 2011 – prescribes 14-year jail terms for convicted gays in Nigeria.

"Persons who entered into a same sex marriage contract or civil union commits an offence and are each liable on conviction to a term of 14 years imprisonment," the new law said.

It added, "Any person, who registers, operates or participates in gay clubs, societies and organization, or directly or indirectly makes public show of same-sex amorous relationships in Nigeria commits an offence and shall be liable on conviction to a term of 10-year imprisonment.

UPDATE : The Truth About Wunmi Adebayo’s Murder: Police Investigations Concludes That Boyfriend Is INNOCENT

What really happened….

On monday 10th of September 2012, in the early hours of the morning, armed robbers visited Golden Estate, in Ijebu Ode. The armed robbers raided 3 houses before getting to the house were Wunmi was and probably still planned to go further. Present  in the flat was Wunmi, her boyfriend, her boyfriend's elder brother, his wife and their 4 year old child. The thieves on reaching the flat commenced with the robbery. 

From what was revealed during the open investigation and questioning yesterday,The robbers DID NOT RAPE Wunmi, rather, they were interested more in her jewelry. A next door neighbour, an Alfa(muslim cleric) , whose house the robbers would have gone  to next, said the next thing he heard was "Ole! ole!!!", and then the sound of gunshots, followed by the groaning of someone in pain. He further stated that he assumed that it was his neighbours wife who had being shot, until after the robbers hurridly left( knowing that the gunshot would have been heard and alerted people around) that he found that it was Wunmi who had being shot in the mouth. The following day, the poilice came around and investigations started, and at that point it was said was assumed that she was killed by robbers.

How The Rumors Started…
The vigilante in Golden estate after the faithful incident *claimed that they were un aware of any robbery incident. It was as a result that rumors started flying around and different stories and theories about how she was killed surfaced, including the voice message, and BBM broadcasts that were circulated. The stories got to the family of Wunmi who had initially rested the case, but insisted on a proper investigation on hearing that it was being said that there was  no robbery recorded. As a result, the Elewe eran police station middle of last week invited Wunmi's boyfriend and a some of his friends for questioning, and they were held, pending the conclusion of investigation.

The vigilante's were also arrested and kept in custody.  On sunday morning, it is said that the viglante's confessed to having knowledge of the robbery that took place in the estate that fateful night. When asked why they initially lied, they said they feared for their lives, and despite being armed with guns as well, were scared to challenge the robbers, as they were not sure if the robbers out numbered them.

Since the robbery incident last sunday, it is reported that Golden estate, has now became the favorite of robbers as it is alledged that about three robbery incidents has again been recorded in the past week, and that while some have temporarily moved out, others live in perpetual fear for their lives.

On sunday 16th September, 2012, in other to clear all rumours, and finally lay the matter to rest, the police took Wunmi's boyfriend and his other friends who were arrested to the crime of the scene in Golden Estate.

The landlords in the estate, the chief judge, IPO, robbery victims in the estate, witnesses and other unlookers interested in the case were present at this public investigation. It was, before everyone present  that questions were being asked, and witnesses gave their various accounts of how they were robbed and what happened the night Wunmi was killed.

The family has now dropped the case, and stated categorically that at no point was Wunmi's spirit invoked. It has also being said that Wunmi's boyfriend and friends who were invited for questioning and held at the Olowo eran police station will be officially released tomorrow as they are innocent and all that was said about them were rumours, fueled by the vigilante's claim at the inital stage that there was no robbery.

GIST : ”God told me Nigeria will split into three before 2015? – Rev. Chidi

Here is another report of Another cleric, the Founder and General Overseer of Kings in Christ International Ministries in an interview he granted one of nigeria's dailies declared that God has revealed to him the future of Nigeria. He also foresaw the country splitting into three different parts within the next three years.

In recent times, different religious men have claimed revelations of permanent breakup amongst the major ethnic groups in Nigeria.

In his words: "I see Nigeria splitting into three countries, the way things are going, unless this trend is arrested or God intervenes, within the space of two, three years Nigeria will split. If you are saying that this is the North's agenda, I am not even surprised. I am not saying this based on what America said, but what God has showed me, and if we don't come together to seek His face, this country will split before 2015."

GIST : Don jazzy - Without D'Banj, I Would Have Been A Waste, He Made Me,check out his tweet

The name Don Jazzy today surely commands some respect in the Nigerian showbiz world. A decade ago, when such name is mentioned, questions would arise about who and what does the name mean.

Like that tiny tear in a cloth that was never quickly stitched, Don Jazzy expanded and took many by storm in the entertainment industry to the extent that there is nothing anyone can do about him anymore. To some industry icons he used to see as 'big thing' in the game, this multiple award-winning producer has surpassed them.

Not wanting the Yoruba proverbial saying that 'the river that forgets its source would get dried up', Don Jazzy went online to give honour to those due, especially those who have influenced his booming career.

Must Read : “See What My Husband Did To Me,Please Don`t Let Him Go Scot Free”

I remember few years back when myself and some friends were deliberating on who has a greater jealousy between a man and a woman.From all indications and reports we have been receiving for months,it is clear that a man`s jealousy can be deadly and brutal.

How would you explain this wicked act from Mr. Kehinde Adesamuye, 39,who set his lover on fire because he was angry and jealous over her relationship with other men.35-year-old Janet Udegba narrated how her live-in lover poured fuel on her and set her ablaze in Ikotun area of Lagos State.

She said she was at the Junction where she does her business of selling cooked Indomie before kehinde came that night, poured petrol on her and lit it with fire.

Janet however says Nigerians should not let kehinde go scot free with what he has done to her. Janet narrates how it all started

''My husband has always been jealous. He used to beat me every time, under any guise and excuse.

I've tried several times to leave him, but he always threatens to harm me. I stayed with him because I was afraid of him and my life. He always told me that I could never escape from him, except I leave Lagos State. Anytime I said I was leaving him, he would say, no problem, but that he would do something to me which I would not forget. Now, see what he had done to me. He wanted to kill me.

"I used to sell indomie at Ikotun round about. There are other men and women selling there too. We're all friends. Last two weeks Friday, one of the traders had a baby. We went for the naming ceremony. Kehinde was there with me. One of the traders gave me a drink; I just took a sip because I was in my flow.

 

"That was how it all started. He said I was kissing another man in his presence. He said that I sipped from the bottle that the man drank from. Right there, he started threatening that he was going to deal with me when we get home.

 

To be on the safe side, I called my younger sister, telling her that I might come over to spend the night at her place. I didn't want him to beat me. When we got home, he cursed, abused and said all sort of things, but I didn't respond or reply because I didn't want him to pounce on me. This behaviour continued till Saturday. He even kicked off the bed, but I didn't mind. I slept on the floor.

 

When I woke up on Sunday, he had gone out. I rushed to take my bath because I wanted to leave the house before he came back. But he suddenly came back, and started beating me for no reason. He beat so much that I thought he was going to kill me. It was due to the intervention of our landlord that he left me. After that beating, I moved in with my younger sister."

 

Government should make sure Kehinde pays for what he did to me. I am an orphan. I have no father or mother. I sell Indomie to live. Now, I've spent all my money. In fact, I need help she said.

For reasons best known to Kehinde, he started sending friends to Janet's shop, to beg on his behalf. He wanted her to forgive him and come back. But she refused. Last week Tuesday, Kehinde came to the shop with another friend to beg once more, but Janet told him that she was through with the relationship. Fuming, Kehinde jumped up from his seat, told her that he had nothing against her leaving, but that he was going to deal with her. He made good the threat by dousing her.

The following day, Kehinde was arrested by policemen as he was strolling along the streets of Ikotun

GIST : Prostitution offered as a 'professional course' in Spanish schools

According to Daily Mail, a Spanish firm offering a professional course in prostitution which it says 'guarantees a job offer on graduation,' has survived its first legal challenge to be closed down.

For €100, students are taught the history of the world's oldest profession, how to use erotic toys and the most popular positions contained within the Kama Sutra.

The school began advertising the course in May, but within weeks the Valencian regional government filed a case with prosecutors, alleging that the school promoted prostitution, which is illegal in Spain.

But yesterday prosecutors said there was not any evidence that a criminal offence had been committed because advertisements for students did not promote prostitution, constitute fraud and were not aimed at minors, reported The Times.

The venture has attracted much criticism in the predominantly Catholic country, with many saying it is the wrong way to tempt cash-strapped Spaniards back into work.

But the Valencian firm, which flooded the city's university campuswith promotional flyers, says it will make the trade safer.

It will also ensure budding sex-workers will not fall foul of the law, with in depth descriptions of the industry's laws and how to work around them.

Brandon, who has run the one-week course for eight years, said: 'They will know what they are getting in to.

'Prostitution is a career that many people live off from day to day, whether they are single or have a partner.'

He added that 95 people, from the age of 19 to 45, had signed up to the diploma - which takes up two hours each day.

And, once they graduate, they receive their first job offer - to become a teacher in the 'school' where they can help in practical classes.

What they learn in the series of theory and practical classes will enable them to 'earn a lot of money, very easily and quickly', according to the ABC newspaper.

Esther Lopez Barcelo, a United Left MP in Valencia, said the party was considering appealing the ruling.

Sex is a multibillion-pound industry in Spain, with colourfully lit brothels staffed mainly by poor immigrant women from Latin America, Africa and eastern Europe lining highways throughout the country.

GIST : Nicki Minaj & Mariah Carey kick off "American Idol"auditions in New York

America, here are your judges. Mariah Carey, Nicki Minaj, Keith Urban, and Randy Jackson took a seat
at the judges' table during the first round of auditions for "American Idol" in New York City today.

They posed for photos outside before
making their way in to begin their first day on the job.

"What I think I wanna be is honest and someone that the contestants can look to for guidance," said Mariah, who was already amused by the New York
talent. "Several classic moments so far lol."

The Grammy-winning diva was reportedly paid close to $18 million for one season, while Nicki is getting $12 million for a one-year deal, an insider
told The Associated Press.

The Young Money rapper doesn't mind if the contestants cover her songs. "If they want to, it'll be fun," she said. "I'll probably start cracking up laughing just 'cause I'm mentally unstable sometimes, but they shouldn't be afraid at all.

We'll have fun. The Barbz are gonna be watching. It's gonna be poppin'."
Randy Jackson welcomed Nicki to the "Idol" family.

"I'm happy that Nicki's here. She brings a whole 'nother cool vibe that we've never had on the show," he told the AP.

May her soul rest in peace, but here is a question for the ladies in the house...

NEWS : Petrol scarcity bites in Lagos, other South West states

Scarcity of petroleum products is slowly creeping into Lagos and other south-west states due to the vandalization of the Arepo distribution pipeline which supplies products to depots in these states.

The scarcity will affect Lagos, Ogun, Oyo, Kwara and Ondo States because petroleum products from the Atlas Cove jetty is normally conveyed through the now damaged pipeline to depots in Ejigbo (Lagos), Mosimi (Ogun), Ore (Ondo), Ibadan (Oyo) and Ilorin (Kwara).

Farouk Ibrahim, NNPC general manager, Media, explained to reporters that there is no fuel shortage but the challenge is with the distribution of the available products which he claimed is sufficient to satisfy demand for at least 33 days.

He said: "What is happening now is not fuel shortages but disruption of the distribution channels. With the damage of the Arepo pipeline it has become very difficult to evacuate petroleum products in Lagos and other neighbouring states."

Ibrahim further noted that the Arepo distribution pipeline conveys between 9 and 11 million litres of petroleum products daily and there are no viable alternatives for effective distribution unless it is repaired.

He said the repairs can only be effected if relevant security agents assure its management of its staff's safety in the affected area.

The pipeline repairs might take a little longer than expected as the NNPC management is wary of deploying more personnel to the site where the pipeline was vandalized since, according to the NNPC, the first batch of engineers sent were abducted and killed, while trying to repair the pipelines last week.

Several fuel stations in Lagos are currently not selling petrol and there are indications that some fuel stations selling the products have hiked their prices from the official N97 to N100 per litre and more in other places.

Reports say the effect of the damage done to the Arepo distribution pipeline is being felt in Ilorin, the Kwara State capital, and many other towns including Offa, Omu-Aran, Erin-Ile, Share and Bode-Saadu.

In his reaction, national publicity secretary of Action Congress of Nigeria, ACN, Lai Mohammed, blamed the Federal Government for the development, stressing that it has bluntly refused to take the bull by the horn by ridding the sector of corruption.

PHOTOS : Man caught with dead baby in a suitcase

Don't have the full details yet but according to people who sent me the photos, this man was caught at Tipper garage near Gwarimpa in Abuja yesterday with a dead baby stuffed in a suitcase.

They said he was arrested on a tip off...but another source said that the conductor of the bus he entered asked him to bring his suitcase so it can be stored properly and the man vehemently refused.

The suspicious conductor asked him what was inside the suitcase and he refused to say.

As the man tried to leave the bus, the conductor and others seized the suitcase from him and found the dead boy inside. Like I said, I don't have all the details...but will try to find out!
How anybody can do this to achild...God forgive us!

Life Style : 6 Things NOT To Do The First Time You Sleep With Someone

So you've met Mr. Right. (Or Mr. Right Now.) You're a good girl, so you've waited the requisite amount of time and you just know that tonight is the night you've been dreaming of all year/month/week/minute.

You look good, you smell good and you're wearing the only matching lingerie set you own. All signs point to go.

You'd think with this many green lights that there's no way a lady could mess this up. Maybe you'd think that, but you'd be wrong. Here are just a few of the ways this could go south in a hurry:

1. Don't depend on him for birth control. Yes, he should carry condoms, but ultimately it's up to you - it's your body and you need to keep yourself safe. I'm not saying that's the way it should be, but the sad fact is, even the nicest seeming guy isn't always as invested in keeping us disease and pregnancy-free. Even if you're the kind of traditional lady who insists your date pay for everything (after all, you're giving him the gift of your company), do not let stubbornness get in the way of your safe good time. And nothing ruins a good time like a below-the-belt itch or unplanned pregnancy.

2. For Pete's sake, don't cry. Some of us have a weird habit of occasionally bursting into tears during sex - it's the rush of endorphins that does it, so blame biology! But, if there's any way to pull yourself together the first time you make sweet love to your new boyfriend, try to. Waterworks will lead him to believe that either he hurt you-and in that case, will never again do that thing again - or he'll think that you're a mental case. Either way, you probably won't be seeing him again anytime soon.

3. Leave the comparison talk at home. You know how almost every woman you know thinks she's fat? Yeah, well most guys think they're, ahem, less endowed than they actually are. Imagine if you thought a size zero was the way you thought you should look just because the model in Vogue was. Sigh.

4. Don't introduce him to your stuffed animal collection. If you're old enough to be sexually active, you're old enough to squash the Teddy Bear to the back of your closet, Winnie The Pooh under the bed, and your collection of dolls in the garbage bin.

5. Do not automatically assume that he'll like everything your ex enjoyed. One man's erogenous zone is another man's tickle spot is another man's horrified, "What are you doing?" and so on.

6. Don't show him every trick in your book. Yes, I know it's been a while, but try to breathe, relax, and enjoy yourself. This is supposed to be mutual pleasure two people who might have a future together--not an audition for racy feature film.

GIST : Davido Denies Being Wanted By Police, Threatens To Sue? Claims Blackmail

Yesterday, Punch Newspaper's Crime Digest reported that the Assistant Inspector General of Police (AIG) in charge of Zone 2 has ordered the arrest of teenage singer David 'Davido' Adeleke. READ IT HERE

This arrest was in connection with an alleged assault on a taxi cab driver, Femi Ajibola by Davido at a Lagos Hotel. Ajibola accused the 'omo baba olowo' singer of confiscating his car. He also alleged that his 100,000 Naira was lost in the car.

Reacting to the story, Davido denied being wanted by the police. When asked by a fan if it was true the police are looking for him, he replied, "No, I'm not, lies. The only thing wey dey find me nah money. I'm about to sue these niggas (media)!! Lool. Stop putting lies in the papers. Una neva tire?"

Davido later released a statement via his twitter handle iam_davido. An unedited statement is reproduced below.

"I want to assure all my beloved fans and friends that, I am not wanted by the police and no officer in the Nigerian police gave an order for my arrest.

"I went to the police some weeks ago to give a statement and cleared my name. I did not beat up any taxi driver and the lady that hired the taxi driver and all those that are involved in this matter have made statements to the police and none of them mentioned my name except the taxi driver who claims that a large sum of money was missing in his taxi, in fact the lady in question stated that she was not beaten by anyone and that nobody assaulted the taxi driver.

"This is a case of blackmail, and I have resolved not to succumb to any blackmail for money. And to all those that are involved in this conspiracy to bring me down, I want to remind you that God Almighty himself got me to where I am today in my music career and you will not succeed in your devilish efforts to bring me down.

Adedeji David Adeleke, aka DAVIDO"

GIST : Mr. Ibu - “I want to be buried at Stamford Bridge”

Mr. Ibu earns his living clowning. For over 2 decades, he has remained one of Nigeria's first-class wits. Slapstick or sitcom, any genre of comedy is right up his path. He is best of the best in an 'overflowing world of comedians'; a Katt Williams and Lee Evans rolled into one. But unknown to many, Mr. Ibu, whose real name is John Okafor has a burning desire.

The Enugu State-born thespian in a recent interview gave what many would tag 'Soccer Shocker when he said he would not mind to be interred at Stamford Bridge, the home ground of European Champions, Chelsea Football Club. He said: "Yes of course, blue is the colour of my blood. It runs in my blood stream. I will remain a Chelsea fan until I die. When you love something, you must be addicted to it. A typical example is Indian hemp smokers. They only understand languages relating to Indian hemp. When an Indian hemp smoker is talking, his spirit can automatically tell him to shut up and he will obey. The same Indian hemp spirit can equally order him to pull off his clothes and go naked. The message I am passing to you is that I am completely addicted to the affairs of Chelsea as a football team. I love Chelsea so much that I don't care if I'm buried at Stamford Bridge.

"Funny enough, all Chelsea victories are magical. If you want to know whether I am a true fan of Chelsea ask me the names of all their players and the positions they play. I can also tell you the best player in every position. Anelka was a roving player that helps other strikers when he was around. The only problem he had was inconsistency. He does well, sometimes he functions well, and some other times he does not. My problem with Mata is that he is a one legged player. Hulk is supposed to be with us but I do not know what happened. I call him Incredible Hulk because he wears the look. I am happy that Hazard is now with us and has been doing very well since he came on board." He added.
