Man Jailed For "Liking" a Facebook Status

A Palestinian man who clicked "Like" on a Facebook status criticising a Palestinian Authority (PA) official has been sentenced to six months in prison.
Anas Ismail, 29, of Salfit, near Nablus, was found guilty of "libel and slander." Ismail is the second Palestinian to be imprisoned for Facebook activities in the past few days.
He was sentenced to prison on the same day another PA court in Bethlehem sentenced a Palestinian journalist to one year in prison for sharing a photo on Facebook that compared PA President Mahmoud Abbas to a villain and spy of French colonial authorities in a Syrian drama.
The Palestinian Authority police on Friday night released another Palestinian, Mamdouh Hamamreh from prison, one day after he had been sentenced to one year in prison for insulting PA President Mahmoud Abbas on Facebook.
On Thursday, a PA court in Bethlehem upheld a one-year prison sentence imposed earlier on Hamamreh after convicting him of publishing a photo on Facebook comparing Abbas to a villain and traitor who appeared in a popular Syrian TV production.
Hamamreh was the second Palestinian to be imprisoned for insulting Abbas on Facebook since the beginning of this year.

NAFDAC arrests brothers, impounds N25m fake ‘Alomo Bitters’


Operatives of the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) has taken into custody two brothers, Henry and Ekene Ezeani in connection with illegal manufacturing and sales
of fake alcoholic beverage, "The Prince Alomo-Bitters." Operatives of the agency in Lagos state have impounded N25m worth of the product during the raid.

In a statement by NAFDAC's spokesperson in Lagos state, Anslem Okonkwor, stated that the suspects were part of a syndicate that specialised in producing fake brands of beverages, which had been under the agency's surveillance for some time now.
"A team of NAFDAC officials led by Mr. Joseph Asikpo apprehended them while they were producing the fake products in their residence at 140, Ojora Royal Compound, Coker Village in Lagos," Okonkwor said.
News reporters also learnt that Ekene had been arrested in 2012 for a similar offence but was released on bail.
Henry was said to have admitted to being the owner of the business.
Okonkwor said, "He said he learnt wine production from a company in South Africa, where he had worked before he was deported in 2011.
"His excuse was that he needed money to establish a proper wine producing company of his own."
The Director of Enforcement, NAFDAC, Mr. Garba Macdonald, told newsmen that his officers had been on the trail of the suspects since the presence of the fake products was reported in markets across Lagos state.

HOW Femi Otedola was healed from Heart disease in OPM

FEMI OTEDOLA
 It was an electrifying moment in Omega Power Ministries, for a Billionaire like Femi Otedola to stand in front of thousands of church goers and testify of how God healed him from a chronic heart disease which would have taken his life.
          Femi Otedola the owner of Zenon Oil and Gas is one of the richest men in Africa no doubt, (as the saying goes, even the rich cry) HE suffered from a terrible heart condition which he had gone to many hospitals in Nigeria and overseas with no result, he also acknowledged the fact that he had gone to many occultist gatherings to seek healing from his heart issue but low and behold the heart condition worsened. then he heard of Apostle Gift Chinyere of Omega Power Ministries from a friend, his friend told him to meet the man of God with his condition and God will heal him from his heart disease but Mr. Otedola doubted the power of the Apostle, he even called the apostle (A LEARNER) claiming that he had seeked help from the highest powers of the land without solution so the Apostle cannot helphis situation.

exclusive from 9jawikileaks: video of thieves in nigeria being burnt alive by mob

This video was captured live with a camera device, where thieves who operate were caught and torched to death.  The scene happened in Nigeria, as we all know it happens in various parts of the country especially in the south-south zone (the city of ABA is popularly known for doing this).
this act in the video is highly in-human and cannibalistic, no matter the offense committed by the thieves. the proper thing to do is for the thieves to be handed over to the police for proper investigation and punishment.
we would also want to use this means, to call on the authority to discourage acts like this as it only portrays the image of the country to the world as cannibalistic because scenes like this would not happen in developed countries of the world like US, UK or Australia.

i hope the IG of Police and the Nigerian Senate will use this as a point of referral to tackle the case of extrajudicial killings in Nigeria.

MKO ABIOLA was a selfish and corrupt polictician who had selfish interests.


Moshood Kashimawo Olawale Abiola (August 24, 1937 – July 7, 1998), often referred to as M. K. O. Abiola, was a popular Nigerian Yoruba businessman, publisher, politician and aristocrat of the Egba clan. He ran for the presidency in 1993, and is widely regarded as the presumed winner of the inconclusive election since no official final results were announced. He died in 1998, after being denied victory when the entire election results were annulled by the preceding military president Ibrahim Babangida because of alleged evidence that they were corrupt and unfair.
But asides from June 12, what else do we know about this man? A lot of stories and hearsay have being passed around concerning the acclaimed winner of the June 12 1993 presidential election winner. Please nobody should get me wrong, I am not trying to discredit or say bad stuffs about the Late M.K.O but I feel we really need to know who this man is. Was he like's of them Gandi, Nkrumah, Mandela, Martin Luther and other people who fought for the people selflessly or was he someone who while fighting for his pocket got caught up in the people's affair and decided to help or was he a bad guy trying to turn a new leave.
it is said to be that MKO Abiola was one of Nigeria’s richest and most corrupt ‘Cabal’ and business moguls of the past, MKO Abiola. Known for his political machinations and manipulations, and blamed for the sacking of civilian presidency of the Shagari regime and its replacement with a military government. Also the sacking of the Idiagbon-Buhari regime, one of the most uncorrupted, by his invitation of the leaders with the aid of the Saudi royals to the pilgrimage to enable his sponsored Babangida-Abacha coup, in contrast one of Nigeria’s worst regimes.
Late presidential candidate, Abiola is also highly remembered for the usurping of Nigerias wealth in the American multinational ITT (International Telephone and Telegraph) project that would have literally put a phone on every street in Nigeria and catapulted Nigeria into development.

President Goodluck Jonathan and failed promises


President Goodluck Jonathan since his assumption of office has failed Nigerians in the aspect of promises he made severally during his political campaigns staged in various parts of the country. initially the confidence given to the president was backed by the average citizen of Nigeria with the hope that the president was going to bring in the change we all had waited for. according to his campaign slogan (a breath of fresh air) we all thought that by now Nigeria would have been a better place to stay in but the case is re-verse as the growing case of bomb blasts by Islamist group (Boko Haram), the rising case of corruption, and the inability of the government to tackle it, the political influence being imposed on the judiciary and all are all black-lining the political dreams we all had for the Goodluck Jonathan administration and his promises for a better Nigeria.
here are some of the political promises Goodluck Jonathan promised Nigerians:
1. The president promised Nigerians that by February 2011, the power sector was going to be privatized as individual companies will handle the power generating capacity and distribution of power to Nigerians.. till date the PHCN is not still privatized but they ARE TALKING ABOUT INCREASING TARIFFS OF POWER SUPPLY when they aren't even giving electricity to the average Nigerian.

2. The President stated that the price of cement was going to be reduced to a minimum of N1, 000.00 per bag, initially the price of cement dropped from N1, 900 to N1, 500 due to the promise the average Nigerian was hoping for the reduction to reach the said minimum but as of now, today the price of cement in nigeria is at the highest maximum of N2, 300.00 per bag. this is even a worse scenario than the time the promise was given.
