The Yangtze River in China has mysteriously turned red




A Chinese river known as the yangtze River, the third longest river in the world traditionally known as the 'golden watercourse,' mysteriously turned a shocking shade of red. I hear that predictions from scientists say the red water was likely a result of pollution, but investigators are still investigating the unknown cause."

Na wa oo!

The solution to corruption in Nigeria is to kill all corrupt leaders – Management Expert

Her name is Stella Ladipo, the principal partner in one of the prominent management training and development centres around. She is also a council member, Nigerian Institute of Management (NIM), and she is a recent recipient of the Chris Abebe medal award, from the Nigerian Institute of Management, an award given to her in recognition of her meritorious contribution and significant services to the progress and growth. In an interview recently granted Ladipo shared, among other things, her concern over the spate of corruption in the country. Asked what she thought about the spate of corruption in our country, the management guru said: “We have laid too much emphasis on money; we are ruled by money and have become slaves to it. Money is a spirit, it can make one misbehave as well as destroy. Take a look at lives of those at the hems of affairs disgracing themselves and their families. Everywhere you find leaders and public office holders embezzling millions and billions of Nigerian money just to enrich themselves at the detriment of the poor masses. For goodness sake the funds that are embezzled belong to every citizen of this country not a group of individual.” Also, on what can be done to solve the problems of corruption in the country, Ladipo said: “I still have that believe that what Jerry Rawlings did in Ghana when he became president is the solution to corruption in Nigeria. When he came in as president he killed all the corrupt leaders. We must introduce the Rawlings treatment to checkmate corruption in Nigeria. When this is done the tendency of corruption will be curbed.” Simple. What do you think, Do you agree with her?

Woman allegedly falls from the sky in Port Harcourt

Nigerians! we have started again, why do people believe such stories? I don't! But some of you might, so decided to share..:-). The news everywhere on the internet is that around 4am this morning, a woman (pictured above) supposedly fell from the sky in front of a house that was doing all night prayer. The house is behind Redeemed Christian Church of God, Eagle Island, Port Harcourt, Rivers State. They said after she fell, she started crying and speaking a language nobody could understand. Usually with stories like this we hear of mob action. But nobody tried to beat this woman. People were too scared to go near her. Halleluyah for that Why do some people believe such stories? Do you? Are there really flying witches at night? I'm on the fence on this one :-)

SHAN GEORGE ‘I am not dating Mikel Obi’

Recently a picture of Shan was posted on line where she was seen seemingly cavorting with the top Chelsea soccer star, Mikel Obi, leading to the speculation that she and Mikel wee dating. When asked, Shan was incredulous “This is really getting crazy. So I can’t even have a drink with someone – just innocently, without being linked romantically with the person? Mikel Obi is at a talented soccer player whose skills I appreciate. I am his big fan and when they won the Champions Cup last May, I was over the moon with excitement for him and his team mates. We met and had a drink in Lagos recently and that was that! Nothing romantic happened between us. I am not dating Mikel Obi and I hope some of these traffickers of lies can go have themselves some life.” Hmmmmm, mikel don't go there ooooooo!, na your mama mate be that....lol

Airhiavbere Gets Buhari Treatment

General Muhammadu Buhari It reminds one of what transpired during the prosecution of former head of state, General Muhammadu Buhari’s petition against President Obasanjo’s election in 2003. Buhari contested that election on the platform of the All Nigeria Peoples Party (ANPP). After the poll, which he lost, he headed for the election tribunal to challenge Obasanjo’s victory. His party, along with the former chairman, the late Chief Edwin Ume-Ezeoke, was with him as he filed the petition. but along the line, as hearing began in the petition, Buhari was left in the lurch. He became a lone ranger prosecuting his own petition, as the party abandoned him. Part of that experience may have led him to form his own party, Congress for Progressive Change (CPC) in the build-up to the 2011 election. But the case of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate in the last governorship election in Edo State, Major-General Charles Airhiavbere, is slightly different. Accepting that its candidate lost the July 14 governorship poll to Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) candidate, Governor Adams Oshiomhole, the PDP had said it was not going to challenge Oshiomhole’s election. They also asked Airhiavbere not to challenge the election results. The Edo election, to all intents and purposes, was a battle between the people and the godfather – at least it was the perception ACN had successfully created. In that battle, the people chose the former Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) leader Oshiomhole and dumped the godfather, Chief Tony Anenih. Therefore, it was no surprise last week that at the inaugural sitting of the Edo State Governorship Election Petition Tribunal hearing Airhiavbere’s petition against Oshiomhole’s election, the PDP filed a motion before the court seeking to withdraw from the petition. The party’s counsel Kingsley Obamogie urged the tribunal to remove PDP from the petition, arguing that Airhiavbere’s lawyer Efe Akpofure (SAN) did not get the PDP’s permission before including the party in the petition. He added that the PDP does not wish to challenge the election result. With the party out of the petition, Airhiavbere is on his own

2013 Nations Cup: Nigeria Go For Broke Against Liberia

The Super Eagles of Nigeria will today take on the Lone Star of Liberia in a crucial 2013 Nations Cup qualifier. The qualifier which will take place in Monrovia is one of the games on the road to the tournament in South Africa next year. It will be two legged affair with the second leg coming up next month .The last time the Super Eagles met Liberia in a competitive game was in 2001 when the Liberians defeated Nigeria 2-1 in Monrovia before the Eagles won the return leg. The Super Eagles did not qualify for the last Nations Cup for the first time in 25 years and former Super Eagles coach Samson Siasia lost his job in the aftermath. Stephen Keshi was brought in to restore pride to the country’s football and was given the mandate to qualify Nigeria for the Nations Cup next year and the 2014 World Cup to hold in Brazil. In the first qualifying stage, Nigeria defeated Rwanda 2-0 on aggregate to qualify for this stage. Coach Keshi invited 11 based foreign and local players for the game including new Chelsea signing Victor Moses. But notable absentees in the list are Osaze Odemwingie and John Mikel Obi. The Super Eagles are the overwhelming favourite for this encounter. They defeated Liberia in a friendly game in Monrovia 2-0 in March this year and Nigerian football fans will be expecting a similar scoreline today. The technical crew and the players said they are not taking the threat of Liberia very likely as they are no longer minnows in world football. Coach Keshi said: “A country that has produced the likes of George Weah, who became world best footballer cannot be said to be weak in talents, but we must show that we are stronger. I expect a tough, bruising game against Liberia and I trust that all of us will rise to the occasion,” Goalkeeping coach, Ike Shorunmu who is also an ex international said they will not underrate the Lone Star: “This is the last round of the qualifiers so we cannot afford to make any mistakes, not even to underrate any team. We cannot afford to underrate Liberia. At this stage of the competition every team is strong and should be tackled that way. Our objective is to qualify for the Nations Cup finals so we have to fight hard no matter who our opponents are. Experience has shown that no team is inferior in football again. And you have to take the Egypt/Central Africa Republic for example. So we are going to work hard and remain focused for the match bearing in mind that we have to make Nigerians happy by qualifying for the 2013 Nations Cup” Meanwhile, Super Eagles speedy winger, Ahmed Musa is confident ahead of the tie and believes the Lone Star pose no threat to the Super Eagles, “It is good draw for us. Liberia can’t stop us. They have a good team too, but we will beat them. I am looking forward to scoring goals in both games. I don’t think it will be so easy; they will come at us because they know we are better.”
