Court Acquits Bankole Of N9bn Contract Scam Charge

A Federal High Court siting in Abuja has discharged and acquitted the former speaker of the House of Representatives, Mr Dimeji Bankole, of any complicity in a 16-count charge brought against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) amounting to 9 billion Naira.
The former speaker was standing trial on a 16 criminal count charge of contract inflation and fraudulent embezzlement of public funds.

A medical practitioner, Dr Tajudeen (surname withheld) and Pastor Isaiah (surname withheld) have confessed about how they robbed banks in the last few months before they were arrested by Operatives of the Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) of the Lagos State Police Command, southwest Nigeria.

Man banned from the internet

A Wisconsin man has been banned from the internet. Yes. That is legally possible. After harassing a neighbor by sending "gentlemen callers" to her house through Craigslist, Jason Willis was arrested and took a plea deal this week, but one of the provisions of the deal is that he cannot use the internet. At all. And if he goes online at all, in any way, he could end up serving time in prison.

Willis put his neighbor's address on Craiglist as a practical joke, and men by the score popped up at her house, some wearing... well, not that much in the way of clothes...

Judge Allan Torhorst said the internet ban was an appropriate punishment, arguing "If you want to drive drunk, you're not allowed to drive... To me, a public availability of the Internet—to use it the way he did—is unconscionable. Everybody knows it's wrong. He knew it was wrong. He admitted it."

Faith Vedelago Flaunts Luxurious Life On Instagram

Y'all need to see how this pastor lives . She's living the life.

Faith lives in a mind blowing luxurious hilltop mansion in Maitama….her politician boo Andy Ubah built two mansions and she lives in one whilst he occupies the other.

The mansion, conservatively valued at N1.5 billion was bought in the dying days of Obasanjo’s administration.

The Mansion Pastor Faith lives in is accessorized with Hermes throw pillows, chinaware and whatever else you can think of….all expensive designer items.

But I just don't understand why a pastor has to show off such luxury on a social network.

Mourinho on Wenger "He is a specialist in failure, I'm not"

War of words: Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho has called Arsene Wenger a 'specialist in failure'

Jose Mourinho has started another war of words with one of his favourite targets, Arsene Wenger.
The Chelsea manager had some choice words for his Arsenal rival, calling him a 'specialist in failure.'

Nice and expensive coat. He was once the highest paid footballer in the world, so I'm sure this is just spare change to him

Wife of the sacked People’s Democratic Party’s Chairman, Alhaji Bamanga Tukur, Hajiya Asiya Mohammed Bello yesterday registered as a member of the All Progressives Congress (APC) at Gabasawa Ward in Unguwan Rimi, Kaduna North Local Government area of Kaduna State with registration card number 0623374.

More than 70 men and women have been executed in the restive eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, the UN mission in the country (MONUSCO) has said.

"The reports received by MONUSCO suggest that the summary executions were allegedly committed mainly by armed groups to spread terror among the population. The majority of the victims were killed with machete," MONUSCO said in a statement on Thursday.

The killings happened in late January and early February, a MONUSCO spokesman told the Agence-France Press news agency.

Love Hater: Chinese Man buys up every other cinema ticket to stop couples sitting beside each other on Valentine's day screenings

No thanks! There will be none of this at a Shanghai cinema this Friday after an unnamed man bought every other seat at a cinema on Valentine's Day

A Chinese man has ensured that his movie night on Friday will not be ruined by snuggling couples, after he bought every other seat at a cinema in Shanghai.

The unnamed man’s anti-Valentine’s triumph was made possible after he set up a campaign on a crowdfunding site in order to be able to afford all the tickets.

Thanks to his campaign, a Valentine’s Day showing of the film Beijing Love Story at a movie theatre in the city’s Xintiandi shopping centre now only offers odd seats.
