President-elect, Gen. Buhari today tackled the Nigerian military over their inability to reclaim lost territories to Boko Haram. Buhari expressed his dissatisfaction at the military when he received members of the Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF) in Kaduna "The Nigerian military has never been so incapacitated like now. It is a shame that the military cannot secure 14 local governments out of the 774 local governments in the country. What is more worrisome is the fact that the military had to rely on South African machinery before it could gain recent success in the war against Boko Haram. My administration will concentrate on major areas on assumption of office, that is, insecurity, the economy, unemployment and corruption.  We will ensure we nip the insecurity in the bud. The Nigeria Army could not do small thing, they have to bring in South African machinery to enable them record the recent gains in the Northeast. The morale of the security forces will ...

  This has got to be one of the strangest things I've ever seen. It's supposedly a scene from Madina in Ghana. So this person who looks like a man (abi?), has female breast, female butt and a p*nis. And expectedly, they are calling him/her a witch/wizard. According to the story (which I can't verify), he/she was flying (as an animal) very early in the morning around 5am but became weak and decided to rest. (this is what Ghanaians are saying). Then  fell into a deep sleep only to wake up later naked & surrounded by people who had called the police.   Witnesses took photos and shared on social media. See the photos below He has boobs   He has butt And he has a p*nis which I censored. He/she is currently in the custody of Medina police. Is there any other explanation for this, other than he's a witch/wizard? A hermaphrodite, maybe?

In the statement signed by her Special Assistant, Lami Makoji-Ojo, Onyeka said she was shocked and disappointed by the false report, ostensibly planted to damage her hard-earned reputation. “Let it be placed on record that the said story is false in its entirety.
