YOU DON'T MESS WITH OPRAH




A critic asked Oprah a question Oprah just couldn't ignore on twitter  and the Talk show queen gave a smart answer that summarizes why people should stop asking her such questions, I just wonder why people don't do their background check before asking questions, I may  not be an American but I can tell you at the top of my head what Oprah has done for a lot of people.  
I think its about time we should stop attacking the rich people about not helping and start channeling such energy into giving back no matter how little to make our society a better place for us and the next generation.

MAN VOMITS LIVE LIZARDS IN ABUJA HOSPITAL



Residents of Kubwa a community on the outskirts of Abuja were thrown into confusion when a business man Edward Asuelimen vomitted lizards in a hospital.
Full Story
The businessman, Edward Asuelimen, had woken up in the morning of July 16 with severe pain in his stomach.
“I woke up a few minutes after 5 am. In less than two hours, I had visited the toilet four times. Then I felt excruciating pain in my stomach. It got to a point where I could hardly prepare my children for school,” Asuelimen recounts.
Even his wife was very worried. But he managed to pull himself together and left their home with the children.
Halfway to the children’s school, the pain became unbearable and he decided to get some drugs from a store on the way.
Yet, a few minutes later, Asuelimen barely managed to walk out of the store by gripping the walls for support.

HOW GENERAL SANI ABACHA DIED AND HOW ABUBAKAR TOOK OVER BY AL- MUSTAPHA




“My Boss, General Sani Muhammad Abacha, died at the early hours of Monday, 8th June, 1998. I had prepared him for a workshop organized by the Federal Ministry of Information for that day as he was expected to deliver an address as the Special Guest of Honour. His speech was drafted and fine tuned by the Chief Press Secretary, Chief David Attah who had submitted it to the Aide-De Camp for vetting and necessary amendments by the Commander-in-Chief. When I got to the bedside of the Head of State, he was already gasping. Ordinarily, I could not just touch him. It was not allowed in our job. But under the situation on ground, I knelt close to him and shouted, “General Sani Abacha, Sir, please grant me permission to touch and carry you.”

A MAN HIDES 15,652 USD IN OVEN, WIFE ACCIDENTALLY COOKS THE CASH





An unidentified man from Sydney Australia sold his car last weekend.  The $15,000 (approximately $15,652 in U.S dollars) in proceeds was earmarked for his mortgage payment and other bills according to Australia media, Opting not to squirrel away the loot in a mattress or bury it in his backyard he decided to hide it in his oven which rarely gets used
Bad move:  Turns out his wife decided to use the oven that day, preheating it for chicken nuggets and yes, cooked the cash.
“It was everything I had,” he told the news station. “I’ve got nothing to my name. That money was supposed to go towards my mortgage.”
His wife was equally distraught and, reportedly, could not stop crying when telling her husband after she discovered what happened: The cash was baked into a colorful burnt mess.
The man reached out to his lender and the Reserve Bank of Australia for help.
The Reserve Bank advises people to take damaged currency to a bank. According to the Reserve Bank policy, “if several pieces of the same banknote are presented, the Reserve Bank’s policy is for each piece to be worth a share of the value in proportion to its size… The combined value paid should be the face value of the original banknote.”

SENATE PRESIDENT SENATOR DAVID MARK WANTS SOCIAL MEDIA (BLOGS, FACEBOOK, TWITTER) SCRAMBLED IN NIGERIA




On Thursday Senate President Senator David Mark said the need to check the social media has become necessary as they do not have the avenue for retraction of whatever they had done according to the Vanguard the Senator said that people now use them to demean their leaders.  What are they afraid of, what are they trying to hide? if they behave well people will appreciate them and publish nice things about them, what about freedom of expression? For crying out loud Nigeria is a democratic country not a communist state like China.  Please sir concentrate on more important issue,

BROTHER CAUGHT WITH DECOMPOSING BODY OF THE DEAD BROTHER IN FESTAC TOWN LAGOS




What do I call this? Poverty or outright wickedness, how do you explain 2 brothers living in a house with the dead body  of  their brother whom they killed and sold his body part for money, and not feel anything, now they claim they never killed him or knew  he was in the house, I am confused, I thought decomposing bodies smell, so they would have perceived the stench in the house, the world indeed is a wicked place where you can not trust anybody
GRAPHIC CONTENT Viewer discretion is advised


The entire Festival Town, commonly called FESTAC in Lagos was thrown into pandemonium on Thursday evening as a decomposing body of a man was discovered inside a duplex on B Close, House 6 of 3rd Avenue. The decomposing body, it was gathered, was that of the younger sibling of two brothers allegedly living together in the duplex which was left for them by their deceased parents.
The corpse was identified as that of Akinbuyi Ajayi, 39, living in the same apartment with Toye Ajayi and Omotola Ajayi, who were identified as his brothers. He was allegedly killed by his brothers and his body kept in a room inside the flat. The corpse had been mutilated by the two brothers. A police source alleged that Toye and Omotola were selling the body parts of their brother for money, adding that the two were caught with some human parts which eventually led to a search on their apartment by law enforcement personnel.
