In this era of freedom of Information going on around the world Nigeria may be taking steps backwards as the NBC has taken steps to mitigate the airing of live political Broadcast in the country.

PHOTO PROOF THAT A BABY FEELS STRESS IN THE MOTHER'S WOMB

I find this article quite interesting, more improved view of how unborn babies look in the womb
Above is an 4D ultrasound of a baby in the womb,research about unborn babies and the effect a mother's stress can have on them. Read below...(culled from LIB-Ukdaily)

It ought to be the most tranquil of sights – the face of an unborn child in the womb. But the tiny hand pulled up to the chin reveals that, upsettingly, this baby appears to be under stress. The remarkable image was taken as part of a study showing unborn children touch their faces more often if their mother has been anxious, helpless or under pressure.
Researchers believe they are picking up on her anxieties – and then trying to soothe them away with the power of touch. As adults, we do this by holding our head in our hands. But while we use both hands, babies of stressed-out mothers preferred the touch of just one.
Although previous studies have found babies pick up on stress in the womb, this is believed to be the first to offer photographic evidence.

SUICIDE BOMBER, HIS METHODS OF OPERATION

Before I begin my discourse on the modus operandi used by suicide bombers to carry out their operations, it is very important to make a clear distinction between suicide bomb attacks and other forms of terrorist attacks that are devoid of suicidal elements.
As a matter of fact, suicide bombing is just one of the several methods used by terrorists in carrying out their attacks. While virtually all suicide attacks are terror attacks, not all terror attacks are suicidal in nature. A suicide attack is an offensive operation which its success depends largely upon the death of the perpetrator in order to kill innocent persons and destroy property.
The modus operandi and weapons used depend largely on the nature of the target, access to the target, security arrangements around the target, the amount of destruction and publicity which the terrorist intends to accomplish.

As earlier stated, suicide attack has continued to be a choice method of attack by both large and small terror organizations. Its cost-effectiveness, lethality, ability to cause confusion as well as the tremendous amount of publicity and fears it generates clearly make it appealing to the average terrorist.

Some of us saw this coming, FFK has finally switched over to PDP. He made the announcement yesterday and gave reasons for cross-carpeting again... read it below

I declared for the APC in June last year in Ado Ekiti, Ekiti state well before the party was registered by INEC. I formally joined the party, amidst great fanfare, on 7th February 2014 in my hometown Ile-Ife and I registered my membership on that day. The registration was done outside the Ooni's palace and it was done in the prescence of the media, numerous party leaders in the state, including Hon. Rotimi Makinde, who represents Ile-Ife at the Federal House, and all the other key leaders of the APC in the state and Ife-Ife including Chief Akantioke and Alhaji Soko Adewoyin the former Deputy Governor of Osun state. After registering we proceeded to pay a courtesy call on my traditional ruler, the Ooni of Ife, and from there I went to spend a few days with Governor Rauf Aregbesola who, together with Governor Kayode Fayemi, I am close to and I consider to be friends.

ARMED ROBBER HIDES GUN IN DISC PLAYER, CLAIMS HE IS A POLITICIAN

According to the Sun news, the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) in Lagos has arrested a suspected armed robber who concealed a locally made gun inside a disc player.

The suspect, Azeez Adebayo, a native of Ifo in Ogun State was arrested in the course of an undercover operation by the police.
According to the police, Adebayo is a member of an armed robbery gang, which normally comes to Lagos to rob and then return to the neighbouring states.
The source explained how the police were able to crack the case. “We had information that he is in possession of a locally made gun and that he is a member of a robbery gang, which usually comes from Ogun State to rob in Lagos and then return to their base.
“We then sent an informant after him. When we were convinced that he had a gun and a gang, we asked him to come with his gang and join us for a robbery operation in Ikorodu. We got his phone number and then convinced him that we were a big time armed robbery gang in Lagos.
“He even volunteered to help us get some people who have AK-47 in Sagamu. Later, when he couldn’t get them on time, we asked him to bring the one he has and let us go for the operation. He came with the locally made gun to join us, without knowing that it was policemen he was discussing with all the while. That was how he was arrested,” the police source explained.

PRESIDENCY DENIES OFFERING AMNESTY TO BOKO HARAM

The Presidency has denied any intention by president Goodluck Jonathan to declare amnesty for the Boko haram sect as was earlier speculated by the MEDIA. The special adviser to Mr President on Media and Publicity, Reuben Abati, made this known while addressing the state house correspondents, he said the president did not mention the word "AMNESTY" for the group. 

The Presidency rather reiterated its stand as saying that those who are willing to renounce terrorism should do so through the presidential fact finding committee, that opportunities have been created for them to do so peacefully. Reuben Abati is stated as saying;

He said, “Let me refer you to the speech by the President. If you read the speech line-by-line, you will see that it contains the very message that the President wanted to put across. “In that speech, if you look at, it I don’t think the President used amnesty. Instead he spoke about those who are willing to renounce terrorism and those who are willing to embrace peace. “Opportunities have been created for them through the Fact-finding Committee and through the Presidential Committee on Dialogue and Peaceful Resolutions of Conflict in the North Eastern part of Nigeria. So I will refer you basically to the speech by the President.”

BIAFRIANS COMMEMORATE MAY 30TH, DEMANDS BIAFRA REPUBLIC

The Movement for the Actualization of the Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB) yesterday the 30th of May commemorated the Biafrian day, which is the day the Late Igbo Leader Dim Odumegwu Ojukwu declared Biafra in 1967. The Commemoration which took place in Owerri, the Imo State capital had the presence of thousands of Biafra believers, the MASSOB leader Chief Ralph Uwazurike and two representatatives from the UK where the group demanded six new republics in the country, including Biafra Republic.

According to the Sunnews, the MASSOB leader, Chief Ralph Uwazuruike clad in the navy blue Biafran uniform with the other members of his group urged the Federal Government to do the will of God and let their people go.
Uwazuruike who addressed the large followers of the group with two representatives of MASSOB in the United Kingdom, Mrs Francese Joseph and Tina Joseph said May 30 was a turning point in the life of every Igbo man.
“It is the watershed in the history of the geographical expression called Nigeria. It is the aftermath of the mistake of the amalgamation of the Northern and Southern protectorates by Lord Lugard.
“It is the reflection of the deep-rooted hatred among the major ethnic nationalities in Nigeria. It exposes the irreconcilable disdain existing between Islam and Christianity. It is all about a failed state called Nigeria,” Uwazuruike said.
He pointed out that 47 years after Ojukwu declared the Republic of Biafra, the reasons that informed his decision are still evident in the country.
“The reality of May 30 can no longer be hidden, but the Abuja politicians and contractors are not deterred. They believe in the elusive one Nigeria, the one Nigeria that is their cash cow. The one Nigeria that is their source of corruption and impunity. The one Nigeria that is their instrument for inequality. The one Nigeria that is shielding them from all sorts of evils,” the MASSOB leader said.
Uwazuruike lamented that it was disturbing that it was the common man who bears the brunt of the evil perpetrated by the Abuja politicians and contractors, who he said God has hardened their hearts like Pharaoh of Egypt.
He said: “The exercise was not done with clean hands. It failed to receive the blessing of God. That is why Nigeria remains a crawling baby after 50 years. The anger of God is on Nigeria. There is too much blood in Nigeria. The blood of the common man is used to sustain the evil called Nigeria. Insecurity in Nigeria can never abate. It is the sign of the anger of God,” Uwazuruike declared. Continue to see more pictures.....
