Nigeria’s active 120 million GSM subscribers need to know this: The Nigeria Police, the State Security Service [SSS] and the Nigerian Communications Satellite Limited [NIGCOMSAT] are, on behalf of the Nigerian government, possibly hacking your phones and listening in to your conversations. The three state agencies are able to do this with the aid of an over N11 billion sophisticated equipment procured and installed for them by President Goodluck Jonathan. Knowing what Nigerians are discussing over the telephone was too important a necessity for Mr. Jonathan that he awarded two different contracts for the same purpose in less than two months interval. On August 31, 2010, less than six months after he became acting president, Mr. Jonathan awarded an approximately N6billion contract to an Israeli-owned but Abuja-based security firm, V & V Nigeria Limited, for the “Procurement of strategic GSM Tracking System for the Nigeria Police Force and expansion/upgrade of th...

Spokesperson of the PDP Presidential Campaign group, Femi Fani-Kayode, has something to say about Gen. Buhari's visit to Chatham house today. Read below... "We wonder whether General Buhari told his foreign audience whilst he was in London how much he loves Boko Haram. We wonder whether he told his audience that he once said that he believed that an attack on Boko Haram is an attack on the north and that the Boko Haram terrorists should be appeased, pampered, resettled and paid allowances. We wonder if he told them that he was once nominated by Boko Haram to be their spokesman and representative during proposed negotiations with the Federal Government" "For now, all we can say is that it is truly pitiful that a former Head of State of the Federal Republic of Nigeria believes that it is more important to win the hearts and minds of the British than it is to win the hearts and minds of the Nigerian people. General Buhari can run to any foreign ...

A press statement from the PDP on the drama at Chattam House today. Read below... The Peoples Democratic Party has noted the theatrical appearance of the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Gen. Muhammadu Buhari in that well produced orchestra earlier today at the Chatham House, London. A script well written, a script well acted, all a truthful lie. The messenger belies the message. The stage was targeted to secure a desperately needed endorsement of the international community but the world is hardly fooled by theatrics of desperation. APC is chasing shadows. That stage may have lifted the badly deflated morale of the members of APC but the vanishing performance is incapable of redeeming the forlorn fortune in the bad sale the APC flag bearer is in the March 28, 2015  presidential election. Bottom-line, we wish to urge General Buhari to quickly channel his message and energies home, meet Nigerians who are choking up with questio...

This is such an embarrassing thing to watch. Nigerians who went to protest against Buhari at Chattam House today didn't even know why they were there. One was asked, "why are you here?" she said "I don't know" and later said "I'm not against anyone" but you see her carrying an anti-Buhari placard. Most of them didn't even know what they were protesting about. If they were paid to be there, then whoever paid them should demand their money back. Too shameful. Watch the video below This video below shows a lady who claimed she arranged the protesters from Manchester.

There's no photo of this yet but according to reports, President Jonathan in company of service chiefs and the National Security Adviser, Dasuki, this morning paid a surprise visit to Mubi and Vintim towns in Adamawa state, both towns recaptured from Boko Haram Pres. Jonathan arrived the Yobe International Airport this morning at about 10.45am and proceeded to the Emir of Mubi's palace to meet with him and his people. He also met with the troops stationed in the area and had a first hand assessment of the damage done by Boko Haram in both towns.

He shared this on instagram.

This whole Giuiliana/Zendaya weed issue is really annoying me. The TV presenter has now been made to apologize on air for saying Zendaya's dreadlocks 'smell of patchouili or 'weed'. Not only that, some celebs who have weighed in on the issue are insulting her, one even mentioned her barrenness. Whoopi Goldberg said on The View: 'She's not Joan Rivers. Unless you know how to make jokes, don't do it... I've met real racists so I'm very hesitant to call people who put their foot in their mouth racist. She was just ignorant... a bonehead. I have had dreads for 40 years, and never have I smelled like patchouli.' Comedienne Sheryl Underwood said on The Talk, "How would Giuliana feel if we made comments on her inability to have a baby?'.  I feel like people are just making such a big deal out of this. Is it only black people that wear dreads and smoke weed? How is what Giuilian said racist? It was more silly to me than...

Police in Russia have launched a full scale search for a gang of organ traffickers including a sexy lady and doctor who drugged 30 year old TV Soap actor Dmitry Nikolaev and removed his testicles. According to reports, Dmitry, a married man, met a random young blonde woman who approached him at a bar after he finished a performance at a small Moscow theatre. They both had drinks and afterwards she invited him to a sauna which he agreed to. And there, he lost his testicles.. At the sauna, the two kissed and had some beer and that was the last he remembered. He said he woke up the next morning at a bus stop, feeling acute pain, with blood on his trousers. His testicles had been cut off. The police believe the lady and her gang intend to sell his testicle at the human organ black market. The actor, now working as a children's animator, was too embarrassed at first to explain what had happened to his wife, but later did. They are now looking for hi...

Read the speech below... Permit me to start by thanking Chatham House for the invitation to talk about this important topic at this crucial time. When speaking about Nigeria overseas, I normally prefer to be my country’s public relations and marketing officer, extolling her virtues and hoping to attract investments and tourists. But as we all know, Nigeria is now battling with many challenges, and if I refer to them, I do so only to impress on our friends in the United Kingdom that we are quite aware of our shortcomings and are doing our best to address them. The 2015 general election in Nigeria is generating a lot of interests within and outside the country. This is understandable. Nigeria, Africa’s most populous country and largest economy, is at a defining moment, a moment that has great implications beyond the democratic project and beyond the borders of my dear country. So let me say upfront that the global interest in Nigeria’s landmark election is not misp...
