"It was complicated back then, I didn’t really know what was happening and I wasn’t sure of certain things. So the best I had to do then was deny it and sort out things first. Now I know he is my child and I have done everything as a father ever since.

Ice Prince also explains his relationship with his baby mama, Bimbo Babatunde.

"I speak with her often and it is usually about the baby. That is all for now.

Here Is Bola Tinubu's Stand On The New APC

National Leader of All Progressives Congress, APC, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, says the party is not about himself, General Buhari or any leader of the APC, but about the nation and the need and commitment to rescue Nigeria from inept leadership.

Former Governor Tinubu, in response to a question about the significance of the five former PDP governors who joined the APC recently and the implications for Nigeria, said, "The APC is not about Tinubu, Buhari

or any of its leaders. It is about the nation and how we can come together and work together to rescue Nigeria. The implication is change. We want to change the way things are done by working together and investing our ideas. We must change the way we do things.

Actor Saheed Balogun Drags Ex-Wife Fathia Balogun To Court for Using His Name

Few years ago, Saheed Balogun reportedly said he would soon stop his ex-wife, actress Fathia Balogun, from using his name - Balogun, since they are no longer husband and wife.

Saheed was quoted to have said: “She is my ex. As for my name that she is still answering, the deed will be done soon. The Nigerian law says that after three or four years, you can do something about it. If somebody wants to keep my name, what of the new person coming in? This has nothing to do with grudges.”

The issue is in court so I’m pleading, because it is a legal issue I don’t want to go through so many things, but I am 100% sure that the children are not mine after 20-years of marriage.

It seems like quite a number of people don't like Kanye and they spent their money to prove it. A few days after he called for a boycott of giant fashion brand Louis Vuitton, the exact opposite of what he was hoping for happened. Louis Vuittion sold out and a new record was even set for online sales.

After Kanye West told people to not buy any Louis Vuitton until after January the company took action and sent an e-mail to their best customers who responded in a huge way. The company says that sales surged this week and when final numbers came in that a new record was set for online sales and that customers responded to the attack by Kanye by coming to the brand for the first time and there were many small transactions by people who wanted to show their support for anything that is anti-Kanye." CDN reports

During that radio interview Kanye said "They think I don't realize my power." Guess he's not as influential as he thinks he is.

Mexico: Teen hit man freed, sent to U.S.

Mexican authorities set free a former teen cartel hit man on Tuesday and sent him back to the United States.

The release of Edgar Jimenez Lugo, a U.S. citizen known as "El Ponchis" or "The Cloak," comes less than three years after a Mexican court found him guilty of torturing and beheading at least four people and kidnapping three others as an operative for the South Pacific Cartel.

The teenager's age -- 14 at the time -- and his on-camera description of the slayings, brought international attention to the case. Analysts said the dramatic example showed how Mexican drug gangs were increasingly recruiting youths.

On Tuesday, Mexican authorities said he had served his three-year sentence and had been sent back to the United States.

The teen, now 17, boarded a commercial flight from Mexico City to San Antonio, Texas, on Tuesday morning, according to Jorge Messeguer, government secretary in Mexico's Morelos state.

CBN Governor, Mr. Lamido Sanusi

“We have read reports that members of the National Assembly that follow us to APC will lose their seats. This cannot happen as it will be at variance with the relevant sections of our Constitution and electoral laws that guarantee the safety of the members of the National Assembly once their parent party is in crisis as PDP is at the moment.

“For the avoidance of doubt, there is no danger of their losing their seats as made clear by sections 68(1)(g) and 109(1)(g) of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (as amended) in relation to the status of members of a legislative house (state and national) who defect from the political parties from which they were elected to join another political party.”

Julius Malema says the charges against him are politically motivated

South African opposition politician Julius Malema has lost his bid to have corruption charges dropped and is set to face trial next year.

The former ANC Youth League leader has been charged with fraud, money-laundering, and racketeering.

Judge Ephraim Makgoba set the trial to start on 30 September 2014.

He allegedly received some $392,000 (£240,000) from corrupt activities involving government deals - an accusation he denies. Hundreds of supporters of Mr Malema's new party, Economic Freedom Fighters, gathered at the Polokwane High Court, in Limpopo for the hearing.

"You're a widow, go and die!" That's what Governor Adams Oshiomhole said to widow during a sanitation exercise of Benin City with some state officials recently. The woman was hawking on the road side which is illegal in the state but to tell her to go and die after she knelt in front of him, crying and begging him not to seize her little means of livelihood, is just cold-hearted.

I'm so mad at the way he treated this woman. Wasn't he once a labour leader? Are these the kind of leaders we have? No compassion, no kindness? What a damn shame! See the video after the cut...

The vessel is a mile long, 25-storeys-high and has enough room for 50,000 permanent residents.

Soldiers deployed to stop APC’s protest

There was tension yesterday in Abuja following the insistence of All Progressives Congress (APC) leaders to march on the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in protest against its plan to have a supplementary election in Anambra State.

Soldiers were drafted to the INEC headquarters in Maitama District as part of a heavy security build-up to stop the march.

Some INEC officials met with security agencies yesterday. Details of their talks were unknown.

Here are some photos from the All Progressives Congress (APC) congress march taking place at INEC HQ, Abuja. The APC says the protest to INEC headquarters is to register its disapproval of the Commission’s string of failures in conducting recent elections, including the ‘inconclusive’ Anambra Governorship poll. They are demanding the cancellation of Anambra gubernatorial poll.

The protesters were stopped by a detachment heavily armed policemen who prevented them from reaching the INEC offices. Protesters include former Lagos governor, Bola Tinubu, former military head of state, Muhammadu Buhari, and Chief Bisi Akande. See photos after the cut...

5 Tips To Fight Your Belly Fat

There comes a day in many a man’s life when he finds himself standing in the shower, realising that he can’t see the bottom half of his body past his bulging midriff.

A beer belly, though not always caused by excessive beer consumption, frequently catches men by surprise: as we get older, less physically active and our metabolism changes, extra fat tends to accumulate into a less-than-attractive protruding potbelly.

But tummy fat doesn’t just mess with your good looks, it also comes with considerable medical dangers, including an increased risk of:

Police, enforcing Islamic law in Kano, the largest city in Nigeria’s mainly Muslim north, publicly destroyed some 240,000 bottles of beer on November 27, 2013, Wednesday.

The banned booze had been confiscated from trucks coming into the city in recent weeks, said officials from the Hisbah, the patrol tasked with enforcing the strict Islamic law, known as Sharia.

Aminu Daurawa, the Hisbah chief in Kano, said at the bottle-breaking ceremony he had “the ardent hope this will bring an end to the consumption of such prohibited substances”.

“We hope this measure will help restore the tarnished image of Kano,” Daurawa added.

A large bulldozer smashed the bottles to shouts of “Allahu Ahkbar” (God is Great) from supporters outside the Hisbah headquarters in Kano,.

Mistake 1: Lack of Preparation For The Interview

Job interview is a huge stress for the candidate and no one is safe from extra excitement. As a result, there are not too sure answers to the employer’s questions, and the job seeker is so distracted that he/she can not concentrate and submit with good arguments when discussing the level of wages.

It is important for many managers to prove that you are a valuable employee who will not only become the part of a team, but will ensure the success and profit for the organization. So get ready and think of the answers to the questions: "What salary are you looking for?" and "Why should we hire you?".

Following the arrest of former militant leader, Mujahid Asari-Dokubo, Tuesday, in Benin Republic, the Niger Delta People’s Volunteer Force, NDPVF, has warned the authorities of the West African nation to free the Niger Delta activist or be ready to face its wrath.

NDPVF issued the warning in Abuja last night, in a statement signed by its leader, Mr. Rex Ekiugbo Anighoro.

Likening the arrest to a kidnap by the authorities, NDPVF said the group was appalled by the unprovoked breach of the fundamental rights of the youth leader.

“We hold this arrest as an absurdity. It is unprovoked and questionable and has been without any reason from the government of Republic of Benin.

“We consider this as a kidnap of our leader by the President of Republic of Benin working with certain opposition figures in Nigeria.

“We hereby make demand on President Yayi Bonni of the Republic of Benin to release, unconditionally and with immediate effect, our leader Alhaji Asari-Dokubo and offer unreserved apology to him for this monumental breach of his rights.

“We call on all the aggrieved youths of Niger Delta to be on red alert and ready for a total showdown and shut down if in the next 48 hours his release has not been made.

“We call on the President of the Nigerian union to mediate on this potential diplomatic row that may lead to an unprecedented conflagration.”

Mali's coup leader Sanogo charged with murders

Malian coup leader Capt Amadou Sanogo address troops on 3 April 2012

Amadou Sanogo was a middle-ranking officer when he led the coup

Mali's ex-coup leader has been charged with "murders and assassinations", the justice ministry has said.

Armed troops went to Amadou Sanogo's home to take him before a judge, after which he was remanded in custody.

He had repeatedly been called in for questioning over the deaths of six soldiers during an army protest in September but failed to appear.

The March 2012 coup plunged Mali into chaos, allowing Islamist militants to take over territory in the north.

The al-Qaeda-linked insurgents were ousted from the major towns in the north with the help of France and West African troops earlier this year.

Khat is banned in most of Europe

Kenyan MPs have appealed to the UK not to "condemn people" by banning the herbal stimulant khat.

The leafy substance, grown by many Kenyan farmers, was of economic and cultural significance to many Africans, MP Florence Kajuju told the BBC.

The UK government has decided, against the advice of its own experts, to treat khat as a class C drug to "protect vulnerable members of our communities".

It is traditionally used by Ethiopian, Kenyan, Somali and Yemeni communities.

The mildly narcotic leaf is already banned in most of Europe and in a number of other countries, including the US and Canada.
