Kris Humphries, Myla Sinanaj, Kim Kardashian

It's been far too long since we've heard about Kris Humphries and Myla Sinanaj.
But Hollywood Life sources say the on-again-off-again ouple is once again back at it, with an expensive twist:
Sinanaj has new breasts... bankrolled by Humphries!
“Kris paid for Myla’s boob job because he’s trying to turn her into Kim Kardashian," a friend claims. "No one knows she got a boob job, but she went from a B cup to a D cup.”

The Myla we know

NOTE: Kris and Kim are somehow still not divorced.

Off-Campus Students, Others Slaughtered Over Mini-skirt And Trousers In Maiduguri; JTF Place Bounty On Boko Haram Leaders

Twenty ladies in mini skirts and trousers were on friday slaughtered in their separate homes in Maiduguri by yet-to-be-identified terrorists. This came barely 24 hours after over ten people were slaughtered in the the metropolis.
The massacre took place in the early hours of Friday precisely at about 1 to 2am when most residents were still asleep in their houses due to the curfew imposed by state government.
It was gathered that the most hit areas were Mary wards, few meters away from the University of Maiduguri, one of the places accommodating students of the institution living off-Campus due to accommodation shortage.
Also affected were ladies living close to the black spots areas of Gwange, London Chiki, Abbagaram, Kaleri areas where series of killings and bomb blasts had occurred in the past, killing JTF officers.
When contacted on phone, both the JTF spokesman, Lieutenant Colonel Sagir Musa and the Police Commissioner, Mr. Yuguda Abdullahi said that they are not in Maiduguri, the state capital to confirm the incident.
But a top JTF Commander said, he had directed his men to the affected areas yesterday morning to evacuate the remains of over twenty girls slaughtered within the Maiduguri metropolis.
Meanwhile, the Joint Task Force has declared 19 senior members of the terrorist Boko Haram group blamed for thousands of deaths in northern Nigeria wanted.
The army also placed a N50 million bounty on the suspected leader of the group, Abubakar Shekau and N10 million for various commanders of the sect.
A statement by the spokesman of the Joint Task Force, JTF, listed 19 alleged commanders of the sect.
“They are wanted in connection with terrorist activities particularly in the northeast zone of Nigeria that led to the killings, bombings and assassination of some civilians, religious leaders, traditional rulers, businessmen, politicians, civil servants and security personnel amongst others,” the statement said.
“They are also wanted for arson and destruction of properties worth millions of naira.”
Violence linked to Boko Haram’s insurgency is believed to have left over 3,000 people dead since 2009, including killings of security forces.

Ex-banker on hunger strike

Olubiyi Odunaro, the 53-year-old former employee of Hallmark Bank Plc, who embarked on a hunger strike on November 12 to protest against non-payment of his terminal benefit says he is not afraid of death.

Hallmark Bank was one of the banks which did not meet with the Central Bank of Nigeria’s recapitalisation requirement in 2005 resulting in its being folded up.
Odunaro told our correspondent on Sunday at a garden located on Mobolaji Bank Anthony Way, Lagos, where he had turned to his new home, that his hunger strike remained indefinite as neither the Federal Government nor any of its agencies had taken any serious step to pay him and his over 14,000 colleagues their terminal benefits.
He said his personal doctor who ran another round of medical tests on him late last week had been lamenting that his sugar level had significantly dropped.
He said, “I might be physically weak but I’m psychologically strong and I remain focused and undaunted. I would never be tired and I am not even afraid of death.
“A man does not die until he dies. It’s my belief that a man only dies when he keeps silent in the face of tyranny. My intention is not to commit suicide but If I die for a just cause, I will feel honoured in my grave.
“I won’t start something I won’t finish and as it is, I won’t back down on this hunger strike until we are paid our entitlements.”
Odunaro's hunger strike clocked two weeks today had started looking frail while his voice had started going weaker as against the time of the first interview with him.

11 killed as suicide bombers attack church in Kaduna military cantonment

Military authorities have confirmed 11 people dead and 60 injured in two suicide bomb attacks on St. Andrews Military Protestant Church inside the Armed Forces Command and Staff College, Jaji, Kaduna State.

In what has sent shock waves across Nigeria, the suicide bombers successfully infiltrated the heavily guarded cantonment, which is a major training institution for the armed forces, and detonated their Improvised Explosive Devices.
The first bomber reportedly infiltrated the church as service was ending and detonated his IED, killing himself and five others.
Just as people rushed to the scene of the blast, a second suicide bomber drove his car to the entrance of the church and detonated another set of IEDs, killing five more people.
Army spokesman, Bolaji Koleosho, confirmed the incident.
Spokesman for the National Emergency Agency, Yushau Shuaib, confirmed there had been an explosion inside the barracks.
The injured were rushed to the 44 Army Reference Hospital, Kaduna and Ahmadu Bello University Teaching Hospital, Zaria.
Soldiers have reportedly cordoned off the scene of the blast
A former Minister of Aviation, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, posted on his Facebook wall around 4p.m that an officer friend of his informed him about the attacks.
According to Fani-Kayode, the officer, who did not want to be identified, wrote, “I am in the Armed Forces Command and Staff College Jaji on a middle cadre officer staff course.
“Twin suicide bomb blasts just happened in our church (St Andrew Military Protestant Church). Mailing from the scene. The casualty figure is really high.
“Church just closed when it happened. So sad, the first bomber detonated his explosive inside the church and after the initial confusion was just settling and folks had started gathering to think of helping out, the second bomber exploded his car right in the midst of intending first aiders and the survivors of the first that were rushing out.”
Although no group has claimed responsibility for the blast, it comes two days after the Joint Task Force on Operation Restore Order in Borno State declared the leader of the Boko Haram sect, Ibrahim Shekau, and 19 other top guns of the group wanted
Last February, there was a blast at the gate of the One Mechanised Division in Kaduna, which killed the suicide bomber and some others.
Kaduna State has been the target of several bomb attacks this year, including on churches.

Another Clifford Orji? Meet Josua, The Man Who Ate, Sold Human Parts To Churches And Ritual Killers

Members of the palace guard to the community leader of Ajara Topa community in collaboration with a vigilante group operating in Oloko village and environs during the weekend arrested a man who allegedly eats and sells human parts to ritualists, while operating from a hole he dug under the Gbaji bridge along the Badagry-Seme border.

Joshua Akindele, 56, who hails from Ipokia Local Government in Ogun State was spotted by one Anthony Amos who watched him crawl into a hole under the Gbaji bridge, confessed that he had been into cannibalism and ritual killing for the past 15 years, after being introduced to the business by a friend who convinced him to stop driving popular motor cycle known as “Okada” which he claimed profited him a little, but could not sustain him.
He further said that he had been earlier sent to prison for 5 years after raping a 17-year old girl.
Speaking, Akindele confessed that he was the brain behind the incessant killing within the village using ply woods to hit his human prey, and dragging them into the holes before splitting their parts for food and business… with ritual buyers.
In his statement “I have been in this business for the past 15 years after my friend advised me to stop riding okada and to join him in ritual killing and cannibalism”

Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, has granted merchant banking license to South African FirstRand and First Discount House Limited, saying the nation’s external reserves has risen further to $46 billion.
Director of Corporate Affairs of CBN, Mr. Ugo Okoroafor, revealed this over the weekend, at the annual conference of Finance Correspondents Association of Nigeria, FICAN, in Ijebu Ode, Ogun State.
He explained that the licencing is in line with CBN’s new banking model, saying, “the banks have met the minimum capital base for merchant banking which is N15 billion. He said FirstRand is partnering with a local firm and would commence operation early next year with a capital base of N16 billion while FSDH will cease operations as a discount house, and now function as merchant bank.”
He also indicated that several other institutions have applied for merchant bank licence and the apex bank would like to see more regional banks and community banks that will take care of the interest of small and medium businesses.
He said: “Foreign investors have a renewed confidence in Nigeria hence the investment by FirstRand. We need the growth in Foreign Direct Investment, FDI, rather than foreign portfolio investment. We need people to come and invest physically so that this country can grow and create employment.
“We need to continuously grow our excess crude account reserves since Nigeria is depending on oil as the only major source of revenue and the oil will soon dry. So we need to save for the rainy days.”
Okoroafor, expressed satisfaction with the level of cooperation between the monetary authority and fiscal authority in the country, saying, “The era of fiscal dominance is coming to an end. There is now collaboration between fiscal authority and monetary authority.”
FirstRand Bank is a subsidiary of the First Rand Group, which is a financial services provider in South Africa. The group has its headquarters in Johannesburg, South Africa.

Newspaper vendor murdered for turning down free reader

A newspaper vendor in Calabar, Cross River State, Mr. Innocent Monday-Francis, was on Thursday murdered after an argument that followed his refusal to allow one of his neighbours, identified as Eno, to read the papers.

Monday-Francis (22), who sold newspapers around the popular Flour Mill junction, along the Murtala Mohammed Highway in Calabar, had retired to a neighbourhood bar at Ikot-Effanga area of Calabar to take a bottle of drink when the incident occurred.
Narrating the incident to PUNCH Metro on Sunday in Calabar, the deceased’s younger brother, Mr. Gabriel Monday-Francis, said his brother went to work as usual on Thursday morning and on his way back home in the evening he stopped at a nearby drinking spot for a bottle of drink.
He said those at the drinking spot had alleged that the assailant, who is now on the run, had picked up one of the deceased’s newspapers to read but the vendor told him not to read any of the papers.
He (Monday-Francis) accused the assailant of not only reading the papers for free on all occasions, but that on one or two instances, he had taken copies away without his knowledge.
The deceased’s brother said after that disagreement, Eno got angry and slapped his brother and in retaliation he (Monday-Francis) emptied the content of his glass on the assailant but after people’s intervention, the vendor immediately went home.
He said his late brother, who was already relaxed at home and eating outside, met his death when the assailant came from behind to hit him on his neck twice with shovel and he immediately slumped and died.
“It was while he was already at home eating outside that Eno came to hit him with shovel twice his neck and head and he slumped and died immediately,” the brother said.

There will be no food crisis – Agric minister

Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development, Dr. Akinwumi Adesina, has assured Nigerians that the country will not suffer any food crisis as a result of the flood disaster in some parts of the country.

Adesina in a statement on Sunday, noted that though the flood presented a huge challenge on food security in many parts of Nigeria, the country would not experience food shortage.

He said, “Let me assure you that the Federal Government is taking all measures to mitigate the impacts of the flood. Nigeria will not have famine. We will not have a food crisis. We will recover from the flood.

“From our efforts this year alone, from maize, rice, cassava, sorghum, we are adding a total of 8.1 million metric tonnes of food to our domestic food supply. That is 70 per cent higher than the target of five million metric tonnes we set for 2013; and 41 per cent of the total target that we set for 2015.

“If we had not added the 8.1 million metric tonnes of food to the domestic food supply, which provided a significant buffer, Nigeria would have seriously felt the impact of the flood. We will continue to work hard.”

He urged Nigerians not to panic, stating that the International Water Management had been invited to help use sophisticated remote sensing and satellite imagery to determine the extent of the flood for effective control.

Soldiers bar rescuers from bombed military church

Military authorities on Sunday barred rescue agency officials and journalists from entering the Armed Forces Command and Staff College, where twin bomb blasts killed and injured scores of worshippers in Jaji near Kaduna.

A burning bumbed car, Inset: Jaji Military Cantonment main gate

The rescue officials from the National Emergency Management Agency and the Kaduna State Emergency Management Agency, on hearing of the blasts had raced to the college but were not allowed to enter by stern-looking soldiers .
Two car bombers had struck at the St. Andrew Military Protestant Church in the college which houses the officers and men of the Infantry Centre and School, the Nigerian Army Peace Keeping Centre as well as the prestigious Armed Forces Command Staff College.
An official of the State Emergency Agency, who did not want his name in print, confirmed that NEMA and SEMA officials were sent back from the barracks.
Even the police authorities could not provide information on the blasts. The Commissioner, state Police Command, Mr Femi Adenaike, when contacted, had referred journalists to the military authorities, whom he said were in a better position to give details of the incident
Army Director of Public Relations, Brig.-Gen. Bola Koleoso, put the number of the dead at 11 and injured at 30, but witnesses claimed the casualties were far more.
One of the eyewitnesses, who did not give his name, said, “Many people were killed. I saw many dead bodies. I think the people that died may be in the region of 40 or 50. Even some of those who were injured, I am not very sure they will survive it.”
The incident occurred less than a month after the St. Ritas’ Catholic Church, Ungwan Yero, Malali was bombed and barely 48 hours after the Federal Government offered cash rewards for information that could lead to the arrest of the leaders of the Islamic fundamentalist group, Boko Haram.
Another source at the prestigious military institution said the first blast occurred at about 12:15pm when the church service was over and the congregation had dispersed, leaving only the elders of the church who were holding meetings.
He claimed that the bombers arrived in the college where the nation’s anti-terrorists squad is trained in a Volkwagen Golf 3 and a Toyota Camry.
Our correspondents was told that just as worshipers surged to see the wreckage of the car, the second bomber arrived and detonated his bomb which killed several people.

2face and Annie Idibia Sunmbo Ajaba and 2face Idibia. They have two boys together

Can two women who at a time shared one man and have children by him, ever be real friends? I'm talking about being friends, remembering birthdays, hollering at each other on Twitter etc. You read their tweets, and you're like, WTH???

Is this a sign of maturity between two women who have buried the hatchet or just oju aye, as in eye service? If the former is the case, then this behaviour should really be encouraged, if not, then...

Please share your thoughts...
