Customs distribute

The Nigeria Customs Service says it has so far distributed 424,391 seized bags of rice worth N4 billion to Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) in Borno, Yobe, Adamawa and Edo States.

The Public Relations Officer of the service, Deputy Comptroller, Joseph Attah, said this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria in Abuja on Wednesday.

NAN reports that President Muhamnadu Buhari gave a directive to NSC to distribute some seized items including rice to IDPs in the troubled North East to ameliorate their sufferings.

Attah explained that apart from rice, other seized perishable items were also distributed to the IDPs.

He said with relative peace in the North-East, many IDPs were now returning to their ancestral homes and engaging in farming.

He pointed out that the need for these items continued to reduce while seizures of the items had made warehouses to overflow.

The Spokesperson disclosed that the Comptroller General of Customs, Col Hameed Ali (Rtd), had obtained the Presidential nod to extend the distribution of the relief items to other IDP camps and registered orphanages across the country.

According to him, already, the list of IDPs and orphanages across the country is being compiled with a view to kick-starting the nation-wide distribution as soon as possible.

He said that by the time NCS commenced the distribution, it would provide relief and succour to fellow Nigerians who were going through tough times in the IDP camps and orphanages.

Attah also disclosed that a total number of 238,094 (50kg) bags of rice were seized across the country by customs between January and November this year.

He reiterated the commitment of the Ali led administration to cleanse the system to boost revenue generation in the country.

‘Mixing Christ with the idolatry and harlotry of Christmas is worse than the nudity displayed in CDQ’s photo’ – Daddy Freeze

While many fans of rapper, CDQ have condemned his recent photo with a semi-nude model, Daddy Freeze seems to agree with him.

According to him, ‘sorry to burst your bubble but this picture is actually a perfect depiction of Christmas. Mixing Christ with the idolatry and harlotry of Christmas is even worse than the nudity displayed in the above picture’.

He went on to say, ‘Birthday celebrations are PAGAN! Christ never celebrated a single birthday in his 33 year existence on earth, neither did the disciples, nor were we instructed to by any scripture or Christian doctrine.

The only birthday mentioned in the New Testament was Herod’s pagan birthday party, where John the Baptist was beheaded during the celebration and his head served on a tray, this made Christ really sad.

You guys must be deranged to think that you can honor Christ with a pagan celebration that reminds him of the murder of his own cousin.

Your GOs and the cattle whose stupidity is of lofty proportions are hell bound, fix that first before complaining about this picture.

God told The prophet Hosea to marry a prostitute in Hosea 1:2 to illustrate the idolatry in Israel, I’m using this picture to show the harlotry of Christmas!

‘There is no order from the IG or any plan by the Force to arrest Senator Dino Melaye and inject him to death’ – Nigerian Police reacts

The Nigerian Police Force has reacted to the allegation by Senator Dino Melaye that the Inspector General Police has ordered his arrest and inject him to death.

“There is no such order from the Inspector General of Police or any plan by the Force to arrest Senator Dino Melaye and inject him to death”, said Jimoh Moshood, the police spokesman. Moshood described Melaye’s allegation as mischievous, malicious, misleading and laughable.

In his tweet, Melaye alleged that the IGP had already sent the men to inject him. But Moshood urged the senator to stop whipping up sentiments to distract the public and that if he had committed any crime or he is aware of his involvement in any crime, he should come out and confess and face the legal consequences.

The Statement from the Police reads ;

The attention of the Nigeria Police Force has been drawn to a statement in some sections of the media credited to a serving Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, representing Kogi West Senatorial District in the National Assembly, Senator Dino Melaye, captioned “IG plans to arrest me, inject me to death”.

The Force is categorically stating that the statement is mischievous, malicious, capable of misleading the public and laughable, there was no such order from the Inspector General of Police or any plan by the Force to arrest Senator Dino Melaye and inject him to death but if the Senator knows he had committed any crime or he is aware of his involvement in any crime, he should come out and confess and face the legal consequences instead of whipping up sentiments to distract the public.

The Force sees such defamatory, mischievous, malicious and reckless statement by Senator Dino Melaye as untrue, ridiculous, mischievous and unfortunate. Members of the public are hereby enjoined to disregard and discountenance the statement by Senator Dino Melaye in its entirety as untrue and mischievous.

Senator Dino Melaye is hereby called upon to know that his statement constitute a criminal defamatory offence, hate speech and hateful conduct. He should however as a law maker be law abiding and desist from un-senatorial and lawless utterances that cannot be substantiated with facts.

The Inspector General of Police will not be distracted by statements from the likes of Senator Dino Melaye but will continue to ensure that the rule of law prevails in all matters.”

Praying to God to kill your enemy is wrong – Reno Omokri

Reno Omokri has said that praying to God to kill your enemy is wrong and can be considered an abuse of prayers.

The Pastor and Activist believes it is rather more considerable to ask God to change the mind of your enemies into what you want for them and not to kill them.

He wrote:

Don’t use good for evil purposes. Prayer is good. Killing is evil. Using prayer to ask God to kill your enemies is an abuse of prayer. If you really believe God answers prayer, why not use it to ask Him to change your enemies or to change your attitude towards them? #RenosNuggets

I am not baba-go-slow, it is the system of government that is slow — President Buhari

Buhari has again responded to those who have tagged him as “Baba-Go-SLow”.

Apparently, since he came into office in 2015, Nigerians have called out President Buhari for being slow at taking decisions and actions that would move the country forward.

While speaking with the Federal Capital Territory community who paid him a visit on Christmas day December 25th, President Buhari attributed his perceived slow performance to the system of government.

He said unlike when he was in the military, he has to go by the system as a democratically elected President.

“I told you what I did when I was in uniform but now when I have to go by this system (Democracy,) where people have to be arrested and then prosecuted, taken to court and then with evidence, we will collect back what they had taken illegally and for doing that, people are calling me Baba go slow.

“I am going slowly but whatever the case, I will not stop pointing fingers at those who have abused trust by taking money that does not belong to them. I will keep on trying to do my best for this country and get back what belongs to the country.

“We are going to do the roads, revive the railway and electricity with the little resources at our disposal. Fighting Corruption, yes, we are slow because the system is slow. It’s not Baba that is slow but it is the system. So, I am going by this system and I hope we will make it,” he said.

I m^sturbate with new s^x toy every day – Woman reveals

A woman has posted to her numerous followers on Instagram and also how she rakes in lots of cash from her sex addiction on the social media platform.

Nadia Bokody, from Sydney, Australia claimed she is raking it in from her sponsored posts – but says it’s all about empowering other women not to feel “pain or shame” when it comes to sex.

The 34-year-old told Mamamia:

“Where most top beauty and fashion bloggers get paid serious cash in exchange for plugging a new lipstick or jumpsuit, I make a very comfortable living talking about sex toys on my feed.”

Despite getting whisked halfway across the world to stay in five-star hotel for free, and admitting her “bank account balance and adult toy collection have never looked healthier”, Nadia insists money isn’t her main motivation.

With studies repeatedly pointing to a large orgasm gap between men and women, and one suggesting a huge 30 per cent of ladies felt pain the last time they had sex, Nadia says she wants to educate other women.

She explained:

“Almost one third of the time women are having sex, they’re in pain. “And yet, it seems like we’d rather gouge out our own eyeballs with ice picks than dedicate a single hour to acknowledging female sexual pleasure out loud.

“Say what you will about my unusual job title, but when I upload a sex toy review on my Instagram feed, I’m doing it because I want the shame and the pain to stop.

“Because I want to live in a world where women aren’t uncomfortable looking at and touching their own bodies, and sex isn’t a service we provide for our partners.
