Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo made a mockery of PDP’s governorship candidate in the recently concluded Osun state gubernatorial election, Senator Ademola Adeleke, and fellow party member, Senator Dino Malaye, during his speech at the Independence Gala night held at the Banquet hall of the Presidential Villa.
Osibanjo said he agreed with the poll reportedly conducted by the British Independent newspapers which declared Nigerians as the happiest and most optimistic people in the world.
He went on to mock Senator Adeleke stating that he provided humour with his dance moves while Senator Melaye made Nigerians laugh by claiming he had escaped assassination by hiding on a tree top for 11 hours.
Read below;
“A few months ago, an important Nigerian politician who was on his way to a trial in a court said he was abducted. And after he escaped from his abductors, he remained hiding on a tree for 11 hours.
The most interesting part of that story is that many people online in particular, on the Internet, started to tell stories of different birds and how long those birds could remain perched on a tree. All these were the Nigerian contributions to that story.
Yet another very important politician insists, and still insists that the most important attribute for leadership is dancing, and boy could he dance! And for those who think that that is ridiculous, at least 200,000 people voted for him in a particular election.”
Police officers have launched a manhunt after a blood soaked goat was found bleating in agony on a beach opposite a hotel in South Africa used by the rich. A voodoo dagger was plunged up to the hilt in the goat’s back.
Police believe it was supposed to have been slaughtered as a sacrifice in a black magic ritual during a full moon but escaped from its tether and was found the following dawn.
The goat was found bleating in pain on Camps Bay beach in Cape Town – a top tourist spot – opposite The Bay Hotel.
It is thought a group of devil worshippers had taken the black goat – its colour is significant in witchcraft rituals – down to the shoreline to slaughter it in the shallows.
The handle of the sacrificial knife found in the goat’s back had been wrapped in red cloth and what appears to be human hair.
Cape of Good Hope SPCA, an animal rescue charity, were called out by police and managed to calm and catch the goat and transfer it back to their hospital for medical attention.
The goat was named Hilda and was immediately operated on by a vet and the blade was safely removed and it is believed the injured animal will make a full recovery.
Law Enforcement officer Wayne Dyason said: ‘It is suspected the animal was involved in some type of ritual that occurred during the night on the beach but managed to evade its captors.
‘The handle of the knife was wrapped in red cloth material with hair woven into it.
We are making inquiries to discover who is responsible for stabbing the goat and we will prosecute under the Animal Protection Act and are appealing for any information’ he said.

Juventus Forward, Cristiano Ronaldo has once again denied claims that he raped a model nine years ago, inside a Las Vegas Hotel Room.
This is coming two days after the Las Vegas Police reopened the investigation into Kathryn Mayorga’s claims that Ronaldo raped her in 2009
Mayorga, a 34-year-old teacher who was an aspiring model at the time of the alleged assault, alleged that the football star raped her in a bathroom at the Palms Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas in the early hours of June 13, 2009.
Taking to his Twitter page this afternoon, the former Real Madrid star wrote:
‘I firmly deny the accusations being issued against me. Rape is an abominable crime that goes against everything that I am and believe in. Keen as I may be to clear my name, I refuse to feed the media spectacle created by people seeking to promote themselves at my expense.
My clear conscious will thereby allow me to await with tranquillity the results of any and all investigations.’
Burgers may increase a woman’s risk of breast cancer, new Harvard research warns..
Processed meat has long been linked to other cancers of the pancreas, prostate and bowels, but this study is the first to show a link with tumors that start in the breast.
Women who consumed the most processed meat were nine percent more likely to develop the disease, according to a meta-analysis of data from 28 previous studies.
This new research by Harvard offers another reason for women to keep cutting it out: it could impact their cancer risk.
Scientists pooled data from 28 previous studies and found those who ate more than this were more prone to breast cancer.
Processed meats have previously been linked to fueling bowel, prostate and pancreatic tumors.
Lead author Dr Maryam Farvid, of the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, said: ‘Previous works linked increased risk of some types of cancer to higher processed meat intake.
‘This recent meta-analysis suggests that processed meat consumption may also increase breast cancer risk.
The study was published in the International Journal of Cancer.

A Nigerian man spotted a mechanic repairing a ‘keke napep’ (tricycle) with his toddler and it led to an interesting conversation.
John Nta said that, at first, he was worried. Apparently, he believed the scene in front of him was nothing short of child labour. But when he spoke with the father of the child he revised his opinion.
John wrote on Facebook:
The lens of my superior camera caught this duo working on a customer’s tricycle popularly called Keke yesterday at Itikke street, off ikot ekpene Rd.
When I spotted them, I became curious and went to interview the mechanic.
Excerpts:
Me: Good afternoon sir.
Mechanic: Good afternoon bro, you bring work?(sic)
Me: No sir, I saw you and the little boy working and became curious and decided to come and admire your work.
Mechanic: Ok bro.
Me: Who is he, your son orrrrrr..
Mechanic: (cuts in) he’s my son. He is very strong.
When he comes back from school, he works here with me.
Me: How old is he? I think he’s too small to start now to work.
Mechanic: Who told you?? That boy knows all the spanners and their numbers. I want him to repair aeroplane in future so that he will rescue me from poverty.
….There and then, he told the boy to get him 10 spanner, I was shocked to see this 2 years old boy fiddle through the tool box and brought out number 10 spanner for the dad.
My heart melted.Man narrates what transpired after he encountered a mechanic and his toddler repairing a keke?Man narrates what transpired after he encountered a mechanic and his toddler repairing a keke?Man narrates what transpired after he encountered a mechanic and his toddler repairing a keke?Man narrates what transpired after he encountered a mechanic and his toddler repairing a keke?….

Legendary Nollywood actors, Chinedu Ikedieze (Aki) and Pawpaw, Osita Iheme, took the industry by storm after they featured in the hit movie, tited, “Aki na Ukwa” in 2002…and since then, the pair have featured in many groundbreaking movies together…
Their friendship, is beyond the screen, as they’re also best of friends outside of set.
Osita Iheme shared this cute photo of them together and wrote: ‘An honest friend is a precious gift’
Meanwhile, Osita Iheme has previously dismissed rumours making the rounds that he is still waiting for Miss Right before tying the nuptial nuts.
The ‘Brain Box’ actor said the moment he gets attached to a single woman, he would settle down.
In a chat with the Punch, PawPaw said, “There is no Miss Right anywhere. I don’t believe that I should meet Miss Right before I make up my mind about marriage. Besides, there is no wife for anybody. Once you get somebody attached to you, she will become your wife.
Recall that the comic actor had said he would not get married because his ‘twin’ in the industry, Chinedu Ikedieze alias Aki, had settled down .
Speaking further, the 33-year-old comic actor however said, “Marriage is not something that anybody should rush into. I will get married at the right time. When it’s time for me to get married, you will know. You will be informed.”
The Imo state-born further noted that he would have become a singer if he hadn’t ventured into film acting.
He said, “Acting for me did not come by accident.
“The impact of the present economic situation on the movie industry makes it tough getting by nowadays. This is probably because filmmaking is no longer as lucrative as it used to be. But what else can we do? The recession is affecting everybody and the entire nation.
“I would have become a singer if I wasn’t acting. To me, singing is a means of expressing myself,” he added.
The All Progressives Congress panel sent to Lagos State to conduct the party’s governorship primary has changed its position on the validity of the primary conducted in the state on Tuesday.
Contrary to its earlier position on Tuesday that the primary did not hold, the NWC panel led by Mr Clement Ebri early Wednesday morning said the primary held.
It went on to declare Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu as the winner of the primary with 970,851 votes ahead of incumbent Governor Akinwunmi Ambode, who recorded 72,901 votes.
The state chairman of the APC, Mr Tunde Balogun, had at about 9pm on Tuesday declared the same results, despite the insistence of the Ebri-led panel that the primary never held.
Balogun insisted that the poll held and it was valid, contending that it would be unfair to disenfranchise about 1.5 million party members who participated in the poll.
Changing its position to align with Balogun on Wednesday morning, the Ebri panel, in a press statement, said, “After resolving some of the hiccups, the Lagos State APC Governorship Primary Committee collated the results from the 245 wards in the 20 local government areas from the collating officers.
“At the end of the exercise, these are the votes scored by the aspirants: 1. Gov Akinwunmi Ambode, 72,901 votes. 2. Babajide Sanwo-Olu, 970,851 votes.
“Following these results, I, Clement Ebri, the Chairman of the Lagos State APC Governorship Primary Committee hereby declare Babajide Sanwo-Olu as the winner.”
THEY are keeping themselves pure and waiting for the right men to marry them.
But people tell them to have sex or else the “salt” will fill up their heads.
But these virgins from Ekurhuleni have one answer for their critics: “Sorry, we are not in a hurry and we don’t have salt!”
Snegugu Radebe (22) from Daveyton said staying pure was a personal choice.
“I choose to remain a virgin because I want God to bless me with a man who will value me. We are often told we don’t know what we are missing out on and that we are instead accumulating salt,” said Snegugu.
“I advise girls not to rush into having sex. They must respect themselves. This will keep them safe from STIs.”
On Sunday, the virgins joined Skhulile Msane from Welgedacht, Springs as she celebrated her 21st birthday.
Skhulile said she wanted to focus on her education and didn’t want to be distracted by boys.
Their godmother, Dumazile Maphanga, said the girls were checked every month to make sure they were still virgins.
“If they break their virginity, they leave the group.
“We teach them to be vigilant and not give into peer pressure,” she said.

Popular Nigerian lawmaker, Patrick Obahiagbon, has been pictured kneeling as he begged Edo state APC members to vote for him so he can be the party’s flagbearer in the Edo South Senatorial district election.
Journalist, Ena Ofugara, who shared the photo online, wrote;
“Barrister “Igodomigodo” Obahiagbon, the grandiloquent and highfalutin former legislator finds to his chagrin, discomfiture, mortification, peevishness and spleen that he must put aside his manhood, masculinity, machismo, virility and BROCUS and like a bingo that ate his masters food, he finds he must kowtow, grovel, beseech, wheedle, brown-nose, crawl, creep, cower, snivel and prostrate to be allowed back in the house.
This is a man that strut like a colossus as he insulted Jonathan and his wife in that era that seems so long ago when there was honour in expressing personal opinions and making it flowery like Obahiagbon then when he beats his chest and says “I am conversant with the utilitarian purposes to which the gavel and the mace are deployed within the existential construction of pragmatic and routine legislative rendezvous. Suffice to say that I can pontificate ad-infinitum …”
today all he can say is “la wo wo. Please. I beg. Sorry for me”
On Nigeria’s 58th year of Independence, October 1, 2018, DJ Cuppy innocently celebrated the feat the country had achieved with a tweet that reads,
‘today, we experience the joy and pride of being called NIGERIANS! The greatest nation’.
As simple and harmless as the tweet is, it sadly didn’t go down well with a lot of Nigerians on Twitter as it even infuriated them leading them to come at her from all angles…
… particularly starting with @kingwole who did a thread to address Cuppy’s ‘insensitivity’.
See all the tweets below,
I’ll say this real quick, calling Nigeria “the greatest nation”, especially when you’re in the 0.5% mega privileged bracket, is an insult to every Nigerian who has to suffer every single day because of the REAL and unnecessary challenges they face. https://t.co/HHKwFmEh1E
I get really angry every year when October 1 comes around because what you see is Nigerians who refuse to say the truth about what a messed up country it really is.
How do you go about fixing something if you don’t admit it’s faulty? Are you not tired of these stupid lies?
People are struggling to eat, more families are sliding into poverty on a daily basis than one can even imagine, going out to work and coming back home is a miracle, the President and people around him are too busy focusing on re-election to worry about anything else…
And you, the child of one of the richest men in the country, who has studied abroad, lived abroad, visited multiple first world counties, can fix your fingers to call it “The Greatest”?
Does it mean you are happy with the way Nigeria is? DFPMO!
Can’t believe people are triggered by Cuppy calling Nigeria “greatest Nation”. How can you be triggered by someone’s point of view towards their own country? It’s like telling your parents not to see you as a great child because other children are greater than you. ?
I'm really sick and tired of people who use every tiny opportunity to insult and say mean things to Cuppy and her sister because they are privileged kids… it's not their fault.
Buckle up so your kids can live privileged lives too.
Leah Sharibu and the other victims of the insurgent attacks can’t say the same Cuppy. Nigeria isn’t a great nation, it’s a shithole. https://t.co/1DphDMAIYg
