Prominent Nigerian gospel singer, Frank Edwards has admonished secular singers who don’t realize that their music could be used to address a nation positively, but unfortunately 90% of it says “shake ur bum bum”.
He says in a series of tweets:
A woman has reportedly been beheaded by a group of armed men in Afghanistan after she entered a city without her husband.
The horrific act took place in the remote village of Latti in Sar-e-Pul province, which is under Taliban control.
Under Taliban rule, women are prohibited from leaving their homes unless accompanied by a close male relative. They are also banned from working or education and are forced to wear the burqa.
Provincial Governor spokesman Zabiullah Amani told the Nation that the 30-year-old woman was targeted because she went out alone without her husband, who is in Iran. She had gone to the market to shop.
The Taliban have rejected any involvement in this latest incident.
Earlier this month five female Afghan guards working in the airport in southern Kandahar were killed by unknown gunmen as they were on their way to work, the latest in a string of attacks against women in Afghanistan.
From bomb attacks to targeted or honour killings or domestic abuses, Afghan women have borne the brunt of the 15 years of conflicts during the Taliban-led insurgency as security has deteriorated and violence has increased in most parts of the country.
Despite years of pressure by women’s groups and foreign donors, Afghanistan remains one of the most difficult places to be a woman.

Radio and TV Personality, Adenike Oyetunde has penned down an open letter to Olamide over his much talked about Olamide Live In Concert Show – OLIC.
She wrote a bittersweet note to the singer, stating her woes over highly rated concert, people struggled to get tickets for:
“Dear Olamide, what HAPPENED? What!!!
I attended #Olic2 and without a doubt, it was by far my BEST event last year. I talked, and talked about it; everyone around me that didn’t go, knew they had to this year.
Imagine my excitement when I saw these pictures by TyBello, I knew #Olic3 was definitely going to be a hit. I needed to see ‘Olamide Live In Concert’ *coughs. In my life, not even at either Canaanland or Redemption Camp had I EVER been stuck in such traffic.
No clear plans on controlling humans (forget that we are peculiar here). The plan was go with Uber. There was a change, and a friend’s friend took @mayowaekpo and I. What should have taken maybe 30minutes max, turned to two years in traffic.
Nobody deemed it fit to tell us that no cars were going into Eko hotel; we were all just hoping; stuck in traffic. Having to walk so far, isn’t always my first option; for obvious reasons.
Then I got into the hall, Olamide, why?
I came in just as you were done with your first outing and I figured, he’ll be back. You came back ONCE, while I was there and you played CD. Olamide, CD??? I’m still too lost.
CD… Like, ALL that for ‘DJ, track 2’.
Wait first, collect your money from the sound people; BAD, BAD sound. Even Adekunle (God bless his heart) who did LIVE for us, they sha spoilt his sound.
I, Adenike Oyetunde came to see You Olamide, LIVE, (it was a complimentary ticket, FYI), and you hounded me with Comedy. HOW??? How does that even work?
Alibaba’s January 1st Concert is coming, I’ll get comedy there, WHY, did you succumb, Why? I thought you had it all figured out; but, awon aye sold this BAD idea to you.
By the way, were you at Asa’s show? If not, PLEASE, Watch the CD. That’s what LIVE IN CONCERT is on about. I was TOO disappointed and I can’t hide it.
Excellency is KEY. You had ONE year to plan. I honestly didn’t see ANY plan oh; at least, to me. Of course, I still danced, I screamed, I took videos; but, from last year; it could have been WAY better.
I will not comment on that uncle that was jumping arand with you!!! Give us what we ‘paid’ for Nigerian Artiste, PLEASE. People hustled to GET tickets.”
A 400 Level student of Osun State University, Osogbo, Adebisi Rofiat Damilola who was missing 5 days ago has been found dead.
And police detectives are making frantic efforts to unravel circumstances surrounding her death.
According to Daily Trust, Rofiat who was studying Science Education at the Ipetu-Ijesa campus of UNIOSUN left Ipetu on Thursday to attend a programme of NASFAT society at Ikoyi near Ikire and that her whereabouts was unknown since then.
A source who spoke on a condition of anonymity said
“Rofiat left Ipetu-Ijesha on Thursday. She was supposed to be in a NASFAT programme at Ikoyi, not far from Ikire. We have been looking for her since Thursday. We just received a phone call that Rofiat’s body was found somewhere around Iragbiji”.
The Commissioner of Police in the state, Mr Fimihan Adeoye confirmed the incident and assured that the perpetrators would be apprehended and brought to book.
He said the remains of the deceased student have been deposited in the mortuary for autopsy and that her family has been notified.
The father of the deceased student died recently and her family was still mourning when Rofiat was also sent to her early grave by unknown killers.
Mourners have been thronging the residence of the deceased at Ilesa Garage in Osogbo to console Rofiat’s mother.
Meanwhile, the two final year students of the same university, Samuel Eke and Akinduro Robert who were declared missing since September 5 have not been found. The CP said the matter is still under investigation.
Police arrested and arraigned a student of the university, Adedamola Olagoke, before a Magistrate Court sitting in Osogbo for kidnapping saying he was the person that communicated last with the missing students before their disappearance.
A 12-year-old boy has been jailed for six months after robbing two shops and mugging a man at knifepoint in a five-month reign of terror.
Mirror UK reports that the young boy, who cannot be named for legal reasons, terrorised his victims from June to November this year. But as he was being handed a six-month detention order, he wept in court alongside his mum as he was led to cells.
The young boy mugged a man for his mobile phone after pulling out a three-inch flick knife on him in Dagenham, Essex, on June 24.
The victim asked the muggers to give him his phone back as the boy waved the blade at him, shouting “or what?” before making off with his Oyster card when the man snatched his phone back, Barkingside magistrates’ court heard.
The out-of-control kid criminal went on to steal sweets from A1 Cash and Carry in Dagenham on October 23 as part of a gang of three.
He returned to the same street on November 11 to rob Londis, where he leapt over the shop counter to snatch cigarettes and alcohol. The nightmare schoolboy was thrown out by shopkeeper Jedanatha Jeyaseelan.
He was captured on CCTV punching him repeatedly in the head as another boy hit him over the head with a bottle. Another street yob threw a shop sign at stunned Mr Jeyaseelan, who suffered an injured head, as he lay helpless on the floor.
The boy was told by magistrate Myrna Gilbert that he had to be put behind bars. Saint Duprie, defending, said the lad was led astray by older kids.
Ms Duprie said the lack of a father figure in his single-parent home and a criminal big brother had helped to compromise his “previous good character“.
She told the court:
“He’s a young man, he’s a vulnerable young man and it’s unfortunate that he’s become involved with peers that are much older than himself. “None of them [the offences] were pre-planned, they all took place on the spur of the moment. “He literally went along with what was taking place.”
Ms Duprie said his mum was “doing her best” to raise her children. She insisted that the boy, who’s now 13, is “remorseful“.
“When he was arrested and interviewed for these offences he fully co-operated with the police,” said Ms Duprie.
“He accepts that these are serious matters.”
The thug admitted three counts of robbery and one of possessing an offensive weapon in a public place. He muttered “I’m not going to do it again” before receiving a six-month detention order for each count, to run concurrently.

A couple who wanted children of their own but couldn’t because of cysts in the wife’s ovary, have been arrested for luring a pregnant woman and attempting to cut her baby from her womb, killing both mother and child in the process.
Thaina da Silva Pinto and her husband Fabio Luiz Lima lured 22-year-old Rayanni Christini Costa to their home under the pretence of donating baby items to her.
Thaina who is 21 years old has been married to Fabio for three years, but upon discovering she could not have children she pretended to friends and family that she was pregnant and even went as far as posting photos of her swollen tummy on social media.
She then joined a Whatsapp group for people wanting to donate baby items where she then got access to pregnant women in need.
It is believed that she had contacted other poor pregnant women under the guise of offering them charity, but upon discovering they planned to show up with friends she cancelled the meeting.
Sadly, the victim turned up alone to collect the non-existent items after dropping her daughter off at the crèche, only to meet her end.
CCTV footage showed Rayanni meeting her abductor, Thaina, at the Central do Brasil train station in Rio before Thaina convinced her to follow her back home where her husband was waiting.
The police have disclosed that a knife was found in a room in the couple’s home and there were pools of blood in more than one room. The charred remains of what is believed to be Rayanni’s body and her baby’s was also found in the home of the couple in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Adanma, daughter of former Imo State Governor Ikedi Ohakim, and her husband, Amaha Okorafor welcomed two babies this year.
A daughter, Kaima, who was born in January 2016, and a son, who was born in December. Narrating her ordeal, she shared on Instagram:
“I have so much to be thankful for especially this year. What many people hope for & only dream about, he has so freely given to me. Kinda convinced he wanted to give me twins but got carried away with my blessings for 2017 then decided to make up for it immediately Lord, your sense of humour tho.
From conception to delivery, the MIRACLES. Maybe someday the story would be told, maybe not. In the meantime gonna get myself used to phrases like “My Children” & “No Kaima, don’t pinch your brother’s eye” #MySon #Dec21st #EarlyChristmasPresent #FromGodHimself #TwoKidsInOneYear #YesPlease #ThatsGodsPlanForMe #HesGotMe #MyIrishTwins”
Black American billionaire, Mr. Robert Smith, is currently sponsoring the education of 24 Chibok schoolgirls, among them, the first set of escapees from Boko Haram at the American University of Nigeria, Yola.
It costs anywhere from $5,000 to $11,000 a year to educate a student at the school which is owned by wealthy Nigerian politician and businessman, Atiku Abubakar.
The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Mallam Garba Shehu, made this known in a statement on Monday.
He said Smith has also offered to pay for the education of the 21 Chibok girls released through negotiations and was offering to take responsibility for all the others “who will hopefully be eventually set free.”
The presidential spokesman said the Murtala Mohammed Foundation in the country was equally interested in sponsoring the Chibok girls’ education.
Robert Smith is a 54-year-old businessman.

Trust Daddy Freeze to be brutal when it comes to Nigerian Pastors…
Yesterday, he showered Funked Akindele with prayers after a prophet prophesied she won’t have children.
Today, he posted Pastor Adeboye’s 2016 prophesies, calling them vague as they didn’t come to pass.
Read his post below:
“I sincerely hope we don’t get these type of vague prophesies for 2017 or is it that we don’t understand the meaning of the word prophesy? Or are we so gullible and blinded by our ‘religiousness’ that we can’t see that these prophesies are as accurate as saying “someone in lagos is going to receive a chieftaincy title in 2016?”
For those of you that haven’t seen the prophesies made by pastor Adeboye on the 1st of January, 2016. Here they are….. what do you think? Because earthquakes didn’t increase in 2016, no new venereal diseases were discovered and things didn’t improve towards the end of the year in Nigeria ?? oh well ? what do I know? There are still 4 days left this year for those things to happen if we pay our tithe ?
—————–2016 PROPHESIES BY PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE
FOR INDIVIDUALS – SOME FAMILIES WILL TRACE THE BEGINNING OF THEIR GENERATIONAL BLESSINGS TO THIS YEAR.
– SOME WILL RECEIVE HELP FROM UNEXPECTED SOURCES.
– GRATEFUL HEARTS WILL HAVE MORE CAUSES TO BE GRATEFUL
– FOR MANY, THE PENDULUM OF LIFE IN GENERALLY ON THE UPWARD SWING NOW, A CHOSEN FEW WILL RECEIVE BLESSINGS SO LARGE THEY CAN HARDLY CONTAIN.
FOR NIGERIA – THINGS ARE LIKELY TO GET TOUGHER, BEFORE THEY GET BETTER, BUT THINGS WILL DEFINITELY GET BETTER BEFORE THE YEAR ENDS.
– WHAT HE STARTED LAST YEAR, HE WILL FINISH THIS YEAR, PROVIDED WE DON’T REJOICE TOO SOON.
INTERNATIONAL
NATURAL DISASTERS, FLOODS, FIRES, EARTHQUAKES, ARE LIKELY TO GET PROGRESSIVELY WORSE, UNTIL GOVERNMENTS REALIZE THAT THIS ARE PART OF DIVINE JUDGEMENT AGAINST THOSE WHO HAVE UNHOLY LAWS. IF GOVERNMENTS WILL REPENT OF DISDAINING CHRIST AND HIS CHURCH, HE WILL HELP THEM WIN THE FIGHT AGAINST TERRORISM.
– A MAJOR WAR WILL BE AVERTED THIS YEAR
– A NEW SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED DISEASES WILL SURFACE.”
According to a trending banner on social media, members of the MMM community whose funds are currently being frozen are being invited to a mass prayer session in Abuja tagged “Mavrodi Return My Money”.
The 7 day fire vigil service which is scheduled to start from the 7th of January till the 13th of the same month, 2017 is being organised by one top ‘man of God’ named Bishop Fireman Dapada of the popular Mole Moba Motungbapada Ministry.
The MMM participants are expected to show up at the prayer venue with their phones, laptops, iPads and other technological devices used in transacting the questionable business. They will be anointed and cleansed by the bishop for safe usage.
The event which is expected to take place at the main bowl of the national stadium in Abuja at exactly 9pm daily has been described as a mockery of the predicament of subscribers of the wonder bank who are close to losing their investments following the freezing of their accounts on the 13th of December, 2017.

Mukhtar Abdulkarim, a Second Republic Senator, along with his brother and driver, was traveling between Kano and Zamfara states on Friday when the truck rammed into his car, killing him instantly.
His brother, Mr. Buhari Abdulkarim, an architect, and his driver were injured in the accident. Both are are said to be receiving medical attention at Uthman Dan Fodio University Teaching Hospital (UDUTH), Sokoto.
Operatives of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) have arrested an importer of electronics on his way to Hong Kong, for ingesting cocaine. Another suspect who lives in Athens, Greece, was also apprehended with cocaine.
Achebe Chuks David, 37, an importer of electronics at Alaba market, excreted 45 wraps of cocaine, while Ndukwe Daniel, 43, who lives in Athens excreted 5 wraps. David said that he was promised N5m by his cocaine partners. .
David hails from Anambra State and is married with a daughter. Daniel said that he was asked to smuggle 5 wraps of cocaine for the sum of N250k. He hails from Abia state.
Contrary to the widespread tale that the marriage of Zahra Buhari is the third the Indimis are staging with children of the occupants of Nigeria’s seat of power, this wedding is actually the second.
Rahama Yakolo, one of the daughters of the oil tycoon, Muhammadu Indimi, married Mohammed Babangida, General Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida’s son in 2004, long after the man had left power (he reigned and ruled between 1985 to 1993).
The marriage is now troubled as the couple battle over the custody of their children.
There are no records that any of billionaire Indimi’s children is married into the family of late General
Sani Abacha, as earlier suspected.
But now, the Indimis are part of Nigeria’s first family as their son has spoken for Zahra Buhari.
So, how do the Indimis gravitate towards the seat of power?
