Jun 28, 2017 10:14 AM The  Arewa  groups had asked South-easterners living in the north to vacate before October 1. Giving his position on the issue which has drawn condemnation from many groups and individuals, the billionaire said joblessness was the reason for the ultimatum. Dangote said this when a team of business executives from Lagos Business School (LBS), visited his multi-billion dollars refinery and petrochemical projects in Ibeju-Lekki, Lagos. “Some guys who have no relevance and values came out to issue a warning that Igbo should leave the North.   ‘I am surprised everybody started talking about this nonsense. Why are we talking about it? “Obviously, in a place where there is a lot of joblessness, it is expected that this kind of jobless people would come out with all sorts of anger. “We understand the reasons why they are angry, but they cannot justify their action when they have decided not to work. “They only issue senseless warning to keep themselves relevan

Jun 28, 2017 10:22 AM Billionaire kidnapper, Chukwumeme Onwuamadike aka Evans, yesterday recanted his story that the bullet wound on his shoulder was from a drug war in South Africa.

Jun 28, 2017 5:58 AM The management of Little Palace Hotel, Ishawo, Ikorodu, Lagos State, has accused the Nigerian Army of forcefully taking over its facility. It alleged that the manager of the hotel, Friday Imhanzuria, was arrested and detained for over two months at the Nigerian Navy Base, Apapa, for demanding the reopening of the hotel. The counsel for the hotel, Moses Okosun, said although the incident happened sometime in July 2015, efforts by the management to seek audience with the military authorities did not yield result until February 2017, when the Army said the Lagos State Government authorised the use of the hotel. Okosun said when he wrote the government seeking explanation, the state denied knowledge of authorisation, demanding proofs that it gave the order. He said the hotel was considering suing the government for damages, adding that losses running into millions of naira had been incurred. PUNCH  Metro gathered that Little Palace was one of the two hotels on

Jun 27, 2017 1:00 PM 35-year-old Tennis star, Serena Williams, who is also pregnant with her first baby stripped down for Vanity Fair in a very risque shoot by longtime collaborator Annie Leibovitz, who first shot Williams, alongside her sister Venus, when she was 16 years old. Serena also talked about how surprise she was to find out that she’s pregnant, barely a week before the beginning of the Australian Open in January this year, in a telling interview with contributing editor Buzz Bissinger. According to her, she relented and allowed her friend Jessica Steindorff, who suspected it was not merely her hormones acting up, buy her a pregnancy kit. She said; ‘I’ll take it just because (a) to prove you wrong and (b) because it’s fun, whatever. It’s like a joke. Why not?’ After taking the test, she forgot about it, thinking it impossible that it could be positive. When she finally checked the results, she says she ‘did a double take and my heart dropped. Like literally it dropped.

Jun 27, 2017 7:25 AM Syrian President Bashar al-Assad may be preparing another chemical weapons attack, one that would result in the "mass murder" of civilians, the White House said on Monday, warning the regime would pay a "heavy price" if it went ahead with such an assault.  The White House said the preparations were similar to those undertaken by the Assad regime ahead of an apparent chemical attack on a rebel-held town in April. Washington launched a retaliatory cruise missile strike days later against a Syrian airbase from where it said the chemical weapons attack was launched. That assault with 59 Tomahawk missiles marked the first direct US attack on the Syrian regime and Trump's most dramatic military action since he took power in January. It also led to a quick downward spiral in ties between Washington and Moscow, which accused the US of breaking international law. Russia has supported the Syrian regime since 2015 with air strikes against what

Jun 28, 2017 3:42 AM …789 sex workers, destitute expelled Prostitution in Abuja, the nation’s capital city, is not strange. It may even appear strange if you drive around the city at night and the “red spots’ are devoid of the presence of ladies of easy virtue. In many parts of the city, prostitutes are daring and sometimes get away with ‘murder’, despite the frequent presence of security agents. Some districts within the city are notorious for the nefarious activities of sex workers. Wuse II holds the unenviable record as the hub of prostitution, while Garki, Gwarimpa, Utako, Kubwa and, recently, Mabushi, are not left out. Some abandoned buildings in these districts have been turned to sex havens by prostitutes, who boldly take their clients to the places for ‘quickies’. Others rent an apartment in Abuja suburbs or slums, where they service their customers. Sex romps inside vehicles are also common. For these scarlet ladies new techniques are employed daily to further their trad

Jun 27, 2017 1:00 PM Manchester United only appointed Jose Mourinho as manager as they knew they needed a “big name” to rival Pep Guardiola, according to former Liverpool manager Graeme Souness. Former Inter Milan and Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho was named as the replacement for Louis van Gaal in the Old Trafford hot seat on a three-year deal – following on from Manchester City’s announcement in February that Guardiola would be succeeding Manuel Pellegrini as manager at the Etihad. But while the 54-year-old Mourinho won both the EFL Cup and the Europa League in his first season, the fact the club finished as low as sixth in the Premier League will have been a huge embarrassment to the club and former Red coach Souness believes it proves the Portuguese ‘isn’t the right man for United’. “I didn’t think Mourinho was right for United and I said that from day one,” Souness told Yahoo. “Because Guardiola was coming in at Manchester City, the people making decisions at Old Trafford fe
