A young mother, Adeola Joseph, that buried her only child alive in her residence in Osogbo, Osun state for two days in 2012, has been jailed for six years. The trial Chief Magistrate, Mr Olusola Aluko, ordered that the 18-year-old mother should serve the jail term with hard labour. Handing down the judgment, the magistrate said the convict who looked unrepentant, did not deserve to live among humans.
He noted: “The convict is callous and may not change from her devilish act as she did not show any remorse. She may do worse if given the opportunity to continue to live amongst human beings. She needs to learn how to live among human beings and not animals.” Before her arrest at Ijetu area of the state capital and consequent conviction, she was said to have made several failed attempts in the past to eliminate the two-year-old baby,

Since Teebillz and Tiwa got engaged, after denying over and over again that they were in a relationship, new gist sprung up that Teebillz already had two kids from a woman based abroad, with pictures to prove it.
Well, here’s what Teebillz has to say about his love children rumour:
“I wonder why some jobless people want to destroy my relationship. Since I proposed to Tiwa, these sets of destroyers have been on my neck. Without me granting them interviews, they fabricate all kind of lies about our union. Some would even go to the extent of quoting me, even when they never got to talk to me. It’s all a lie. I have never been married and I don’t know why and where they got the pictures from. Rumour mongers and bloggers especially, are beginning to show how inexperienced they are on this job. I wonder if this people have any good thing doing.”

He said “the best for him is to retire from active politics and become an elder-statesman.”
According to him, the planned 100 years celebration of modern Nigeria, was ‘’pure nonsense for the government of the country to allow such celebration, which he said was ‘’100 years in bondage.’’

The war of words over the new Petroleum Industry Bill (PIB) got messier in the Senate yesterday when southern Senators accused the North of dominating oil bloc allocations. For good measure, the latter is asking President Goodluck Jonathan to revoke and re-award the oil blocs, marginal fields and prospection licences in line with the principles of federal character. It was on the second of the three-day debate on the bill.
Chairman of the Senate Rules and Business Committee, Ita Enang, led the verbal war when he said 83 per cent of oil bloc allocations are presently held by northerners. Northern Senators drew the first blood on Tuesday during the first day of debate on the PIB in the Senate when the zone accused the South of frittering away over N11 trillion revenue in over 13 years. But the South replied yesterday, saying that the North dominates the oil industry with over 80 per cent ownership. Enang listed the alleged 11 big players in the oil industry.
They are Cavendish Petroleum, the operators of OML 110, awarded to Alhaji Mai Deribe of Borno State (North East), nets an average of about N4 billion monthly; Others are:
Above all odds we set out again. Inspite of the bloodshed, we remain stronger. Our blood on the arena, our flesh on the polls. We are not discouraged, for this change we must make. Let our story be told, let our tales be remembered, for this clarion call is greater than our lives’
Those were my exact words two years ago, written on one of the midnight journeys to the village of Uguawalele, in far away Sokoto State Nigeria. My story seems unclear; you may not understand my tales but give me some minutes and follow me to the beginning, where it all started.
On October 2010, my colleagues and I were called upon to obey the usual clarion call. This is a sacred duty of every Nigerian graduate towards the integration of the country’s heterogeneous inhabitants. But this time the assignment was different. Our country was passing through a perilous time in its history; our nascent democracy was entering the stage of maturity which historically seems to be the moment things go wrong. Secondly, disunity was foaming up amidst the various ethnic groups on sectional candidacy that seems to dominate the political parties, in the real light it was the South against the North. Above all, for the first time in the history of our nation the electoral commission was posed to conduct a free and fair election and we seems to be the only reasonable choice.
Our task was simple, register voters and conduct the general election. The assignment was easy but technical, fun but with high risk. Without hesitation we picked up our bags and never looked back. We were made to believe our decision is the most humble thing to do and paying
