Picture Of Nigerian Made Car that walks on both land and water

I saw this car in Ikeja, around the popular computer village area.
I saw it moving on a high speed.
It was very amazing.

Chris Brown To Be Jailed

Chris Brown is under criminal battery investigation. Remember that brawl between Chris and Frank Ocean last January outside a recording studio? Law enforcement revealed shortly after the incident the case was closed, but it has been found out that's not the case. It was learned the L.A. County D.A.'s Office has an active file and is deciding whether to prosecute Brown for battery. It's interesting ... because Ocean never formally pressed charges. Nonetheless ... the case is under review.

 It's possible the Brown/Ocean incident could come up today at Brown's probation review hearing. Brown is supposed to be in court, and the judge could raise the issue because Chris was ordered to obey all laws. Meanwhile, Brown is also being investigated for an alleged hit-and-run.

Youths Hunt Boko Haram In Maiduguri

There are reports that youth groups from several areas in Maiduguri, the Borno State capital, have launched a manhunt for suspected Boko Haram members. According to witnesses, yesterday, that the youths who are on a voluntary mission to help security operatives, arrested some suspects, weekend, tied them up and handed them over to the Joint Task Force. More than 500 youths from Gwange I, Gwange II, Blabirin, Mafoni and Hausari wards of Maiduguri are said to have organised themselves and resolve to go after insurgents who are sneaking back to the city, and hand them over to the authorities. The JTF spokesman Lt. Col. Sagir Musa could not be reached for comments. The absence of mobile telecommunication services and the ongoing offensive against the Boko Haram have left journalists in Maiduguri handicapped in reaching out to military authorities. But when contacted, Defence spokesman Brigadier General Chris Olukolade said he could not confirm the story but that the military would welcome any such cooperation from the civil populace. "I am not aware. But every effort that is complimentary or consistent with current security operations by way of cooperation from the civil populace to put an end to the activities of terrorists in the land will continue to be welcomed," he said. Many members of the Boko Haram are believed to have run back to the city following the military offensive which began shortly after President Jonathan declared state of emergency and moved in troops into northern Borno to fight the insurgents and recapture territories under their control. "We, the youths in Maiduguri have resolved to fish out any member of Boko Haram sect who ran back into the city, to his or their house or community, after they had left for villages and bushes from where they were recently displaced by the federal troops," a vigilante group leader in Gwange II ward said. The leader who prefers anonymity added: "We thank God that we in Gwange II have so far caught more than 10 Boko Haram members in our area and handed them over to the soldiers and we are glad that our counterparts in GwangeI have also mobilized themselves for this patriotic community service. Insha-Allah we will soon carry this movement to Gwange III, Gwange IV and even other communities which are yet to take similar action." A witness told our correspondent that some youths in Hausari ward, last weekend crossed over to a neighbouring ward, Blabirin, and fished out a Boko Haram suspect who had ran back to the area, and handed him over to soldiers. "This action of Hausari youths had provoked some Boko Haram members who manoeuvred their way into the city for reprisal; they came from the outskirts of Maiduguri, disguised as villagers conveying a corpse to the cemetery in a pick-up van. But they were repelled by the JTF," a resident said. South African timeslive.co.za yesterday corroborated this when it quoted local residents as saying that 10 attackers came into Hausari in a pick-up truck, with a coffin in the exposed flatbed rear. "Everybody thought they were going for burial until they alighted from their vehicle and started bringing out their guns. They opened fire into different direction," it quoted a local resident, Mohammed Aji as saying. It also quoted military spokesman, Lieutenant Colonel Sagir Musa as confirming that gunmen launched attacks on Friday evening in the neighbourhoods of Hausari, Fizzan and Gwange. Meanwhile, as a result of the closure of all roads leading to the northern and southern parts of Borno, village dwellers are reported to be suffering from food shortages because they cannot access markets to buy food items. "There is no food in our villages. All the foods we stored have finished and our people have been dying from hunger. If the situation continues, no one would be spared," a food trader, Adamu Kuranabasa who maneuvered his way from Gwoza through bush paths of Cibok to Damboa into Maiduguri, lamented. "Our people who are dwelling in villages came this week as usual to buy food items on market day of this week in Gwoza, unfortunately just a few of them were lucky to get some food items and I am sure it will not take them up to next week; that was why I decided to come to Maiduguri through these risky roads," he added. Commenting on this, military spokesman Olukolade said Special Forces only mounted road blocks on designated areas for stop-and-search exercises, often causing delays for travellers. But he urged people moving along such roads to be tolerant with the soldiers. "There was no basis for soldiers to block the roads and put off movements. In fact I was in the area last week and I didn't see any spot where roads are blocked and people could not move. But those who are patient enough with the troops have been passing through the check points," he said. He said : "You only have the necessary control of movement essentially to keep the populace out of harm. There is certainly no intention to make life unbearable as movement of essential goods and services have not been restrained, especially when they have been duly cleared, or authorized to the satisfaction of commanders on the ground. Safety of the people is very paramount now."

On June 7, 2013, a 6 page suicide note was found by her sister.
The note is reported to indicate that she had planned to end her life.
 Below given is a transcript of Jiah's handwritten letter.

These are scanned snapshots of the original letter as released by Khan's family. " I don't know how to say this to you but I might as well now as I have nothing to lose. I've already lost everything. If you're reading this I might have already left or about to leave. I am broken inside. You may not have known this but you affected me deeply to a point where I lost myself in loving you. Yet you tortured me everyday. These days I see no light I wake up not wanting to wake up. There was a time I saw my life with you, a future with you. But you shattered my dreams. I feel dead inside. I've never given so much of myself to someone or cared so much. You returned my love with cheating and lies. It didn't matter how many gifts I gave you or how beautiful I looked for you. I was scared of getting pregnant but I gave myself completely the pain you have caused me everyday has destroyed every bit of me, destroyed my soul. I can't eat or sleep or think or function. I am running away from everything. The career is not even worth it anymore. When I first met you I was driven, ambitious and disciplined. Then I fell for you, a love I thought would bring out the best in me. I don't know why destiny brought us together. After all the pain, the rape, the abuse, the torture I have seen previously I didn't deserve this. I didn't see any love or commitment from you. I just became increasingly scared that you would hurt me mentally or physically. Your life was about partying and women. Mine was you and my work. If I stay here I will crave you and miss you. So I am kissing my 10-year career and dreams goodbye. I never told you but I received a message about you. About you cheating on me. I chose to ignore it, decided to trust you. You embarrassed me. I never went out, I never went with anyone else. I am a loyal person. I never met anyone with Karthik I just wanted you to feel how you make me feel constantly. No other woman will give you as much as I did or love you as much as I did. I can write that in my blood. Things were looking up for me here, but is it worth it when you constantly feel the pain of heartbreak when the person you love wants to abuse you or threatens to hit you or cheats on you telling other girls they are beautiful or throws you out of their house when you have no where to go and you've come to them out of love or when they lie to your face or they make you chase after them in their car. Or disrespects their family. You never even met my sister. I bought your sister presents. You tore my soul. I have no reason to breathe anymore. All I wanted was love. I did everything for you. I was working for us. But you were never my partner. My future is destroyed my happiness snatched away from me. I always wished the best for you, was ready to invest what little money I had in your betterment. You never appreciated my love, Kicked me in the face. I have no confidence or self esteem left, whatever talent whatever ambition you took it all away. You destroyed my life. It hurt me so much that I waited for you for ten days and you didn't bother buying me something. The Goa trip was my birthday present but even after you cheated I still spent on you. I aborted our baby when it hurt me deeply. You destroyed my Christmas and my birthday dinner when I came back. When I tried my hardest to make your birthday special. You chose to be away from me on Valentines Day. You promised me once we made it to one year we would get engaged. All you want in life is partying, your women and your selfish motives. All I wanted was you and my happiness you took both away from me. I spent money on you selflessly you would throw in my face. When I would cry for you. I have nothing left in this world to live for after this. I wish you had loved me like I loved you. I dreamt of our future. I dreamt f our success. I leave this place with nothing but broken dreams and empty promises. All I want now is to go to sleep and never wake up again. I am nothing. I had everything. I felt so alone even while with you. You made me feel alone and vulnerable. I am so much more than this"

On June 8, 2013 Khan's Condolence meeting was held at Vile Parle Medical Club to pray Jiah. Bollywood actors in attendance included Aamir Khan, Deepika Padukone, Randhir Kapoor, Prateik Babbar, Sanjay Kapoor, Shweta Pandit, Kiran Rao, Urvashi Dholakia, Ranjeet, Deepak Parashar, Sanjay Khan and Naghma.

Fuji Artist Sulaimon Atawewe is a Fraudster - Fatai Rolling Dollars Reveals

It was reported last week that the octogenarian musician, Pa Fatai Rolling Dollar was unable to balance his hospital bill at Ahmadiyya Hospital, along Abeokuta Expressway, Lagos where he was bedridden for two weeks. "One of Nigeria's oldest and most prolific musicians was yet to leave Ahmadiyya Hospital because he has been unable to come up with N29,000, balance of his hospital bill - a paltry sum for a musician of his caliber and a situation which may keep the octogenarian in the hospital longer," the reporter said. Though, people have rallied round the old man and have sorted the hospital bill as we gathered, notwithstanding, such a small amount shouldn't be an issue for a legend like him. This is a man who was very close to the former governor of Lagos, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu but he no longer has his contact. Hear him ""I was close to the former governor, Bola Tinubu, but I don't have his contact anymore. The man loves me". While in hospital, Rolling Dollar was said to have expressed his disappointment on the trip and allegedly said Atawewe, the Fuji artiste went away with his money and he was never paid a dime in the US Tour. Hear his ordeal in America "I went on stage and performed even though the money was not given to me. When I finished performing and went to sit down, my body was no longer normal. I told somebody to take me to the car and put on the heater. It was about 3.00 a.m. and that was where I started feeling the pain in my leg. It was very cold in America then", he explained. He managed to return home to Nigeria by May 17. The shows were to hold in New York, Maryland, New Jersey and Texas but only New York and Maryland held. New York went bad and I was not even paid for the show there. This is because trouble broke out and some people made away with the money, including, he said, Atawewe, a Nigerian fuji musician that performed at the event, duping even the promoter, Mr. Samson Raji."

Chanchangi Airline’s workers protest unpaid salaries

Chanchangi Airline’s workers protest unpaid salaries

About 53 staff members of Chanchangi Airlines have dragged the airline to the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) over their unpaid salary arrears of about 36 months.
 
The workers who alleged that the unpaid salaries have accrued since 2010, when the carrier advised them to embark on compulsory leave, yesterday took the matter to the regulatory authority after staging peaceful protests at the airline’s counter at MMA2 Terminal and then to the headquarters of the authority.
 
The workers said they were asked to stay off work since 2010, when the airline started having operational challenges.
 
The Director of Human Resources, Mr. Austin Amadi Ifeanyi, and Director of Consumer Protection, Alhaji Adamu Abdulahi, who received the aggrieved workers on behalf of the authority, assured them that the NCAA would look into their grievances and ensure that the airline did the right by paying them the arrears of their salaries.

He said the NCAA would investigate their claims, while giving the aggrieved workers one week to return for a feedback from the authority.
Chanchangi Airline’s Station Manager, Mr. Babadiya Ahmed, confirmed that the workers were not sacked, but said that the airline was already looking into the matter.

He said those affected were asked to proceed on compulsory leave due to operational reasons, adding that very soon the issue in contention would be resolved

JAMB clears doubt on 2013 UTME results

JAMB clears doubt on 2013 UTME results

The Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) yesterday reacted to the 192 complaints received from candidates, who sat for the 2013 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).
 
The Registrar, Prof. Dibu Ojerinde, at a meeting in Abuja with some of the candidates, who filed the complaints, said it was imperative to clear the doubt of the public about the UTME.
Ojerinde said there was an open complaint from the media, which amounted to a threat to the integrity of the organisation.
 
He said of the 192 candidates, who filed their complaints, 132 requested that their examination scripts be remarked, while 63 requested to see their examination scripts.
Said he: “We are sure of what they scored, we are sure of the situation and we are sure of the true position of things, even with those who claimed that we did not release their results.
 
“But in the final analysis, you can see that they did not shade their subjects correctly. How can we release a result that is not known to us?
 
“That was why we told the candidates to come on June 10 to see their papers and here we are, together with the complainants.

“We have been showing them their papers and so far, nobody has been vindicated. I can bet you, the damage done to our integrity is what we have come to redeem.”
 
The registrar, who reiterated JAMB’s determination to ensure transparency and accountability in the conduct of its examinations, added that “we have to be able to tell the people how we conducted the exams and how we scored them.”
 
The JAMB boss said the organisation was not responsible for the failure of any candidate in the 2013 UTME, stressing that rather, the failure was due to double shedding and not following proper instructions as required.
 
He hailed the aggrieved candidates for their boldness in writing their complaints to JAMB.
 
He directed that any complainant, who must have paid the requested amount for the verification, should be refunded.
 
Some of the complainants said after the meeting that they were not pleased with the way and manner the UTME was conducted.
 
A complainant, Miss Chiamaka Nnadika, said she was not satisfied even after seeing her answer script.
 
She, however, hailed JAMB for the steps taken to call for such an exercise.
 
“Such a meeting should also be held in the states, instead of people travelling from the East and North to Abuja.
 
“It will be better if JAMB will organise such meetings in the 36 states of the federation so that people will understand their issues better.”
Another complainant, Mrs. Queen Wuhu, said she was not happy about the turnout of things.
 
“I was wondering why I failed the UTME. That was why I wrote a complaint to JAMB that I wish to see my answer script. But I was shocked with the findings that I was the one who made the mistake by double-shading.
 
“This means I am going to lose this year again. I will work harder next year.”

Also present at the meeting were representatives of the Public Complaints Commission and the Independent Corrupt Practices and other related offences Commission (ICPC).
