Xenophobic Attack:Why Buhari must take a stand – Reps

February 23rd, 2017
The House of Representatives has called on President Muhammadu Buhari to take a stand against the persistent xenophobic attacks on Nigerians in South Africa.
Speaking during plenary, a member from Edo State, Serguis Ogun frowned at the treatment meted out to Nigerians in South African.
According to Ogun, “I want us as a House to condemn it and I also want our government to take a stand on it.
“How can we say that we are the giant of Africa when in other African countries, our citizens are being killed?”
The Minority Leader, Leo Ogor, described the xenophobic attack on Nigerians as “unjustifiable.”
Urging the South African government to take responsibility for securing lives within its borders, Ogor said, “This isn’t the first time this is happening. South Africans continue to kill Nigerians for no justifiable reason and this is completely unacceptable.”
This is coming at a time when the Senior Special Assistant to President Muhammadu Buhari on Foreign Affairs and Diaspora, Abike Dabiri-Erewa, called on the South African government to take decisive and definitive measures to protect Nigerian citizens and other Africans within South African borders.
The aide said the seeming silence of the South African government was pushing Nigeria to the wall and may warrant sanctions.
She equally called on the African Union to intervene urgently in the renewed xenophobic attacks on Nigerians and other Africans in South Africa.

David Letterman Says Donald Trump ‘Can Lie About Anything’ MARCH 6th 2017, David Letterman (pictured in May 2016) called on Democrats to get a backbone and fight back against the new president. David Letterman may have left late-night television, but he didn’t retire his opinions. The former host took on President Donald Trump in an interview with Vulture that was posted Sunday. Comparing Trump to the head of a family named “Larry,” Letterman said: “If Larry behaved the way Donald behaves, for even a six-week period, the family would get together and say, ‘Jesus, somebody better call the doctor.’ Then they’d ask him to step down. But Trump’s the president and he can lie about anything from the time he wakes up to what he has for lunch and he’s still the president. I don’t get that.” The 69-year-old Letterman also called out Democrats. “We don’t need more confirmation that there’s something wrong with Donald Trump,” he said. “Let’s instead f

The men and women gathered at a makeshift memorial Sunday, down the block from where a man in his 20s had been found shot to death between parked cars in the Southwest Side's Brighton Park neighborhood. While the mourners stood in the late afternoon sun amid heart-shaped balloon, liquor bottles and candles, two men with rifles emerged from an alley around 5:20 p.m. and began firing, hitting 10 people and killing two of them. It had been just 12 hours since the man, 26-year-old Daniel Cardova, had been killed.  He too had been shot by two men with rifles, according to Chicago police.
