The Released Kidnapped Pupils of Lagos-State Model College, Igbonla, Epe with their parents at the news conference on
their freedom in Lagos on Friday /28/07/17


Parents of the recently rescued six students of the Lagos Model College were hugely relieved Friday to reunite with them after more than two months of anxiety.

The freed boys are Peter Jonah, Isiaka Rahmon, Adebayo George, Judah Agbausi, Pelumi Philips, and Farouq Yusuf.

Moruf Ramon, whose 19-year-old son, Isiaka, was among the rescued students, commended the Lagos government and the Nigerian police for their efforts.

"I am so happy with what is happening today and I want to appreciate the Lagos State Government and the Commissioner of Police for all they have done to secure the release of our children."

Another parent, Beatrice Jonah, said it had been a traumatic experience for her family.

According to her, the experience is very difficult to describe as it was better imagined than experienced.

"To me it has been 65 days of trauma but we thank God he is back safely," she said.

The Lagos State Deputy Governor, Dr Idiat Adebule, who received the students on behalf of Governor Akinwunmi Ambode, commended the efforts of the security agencies and the intervention of the Federal Government.

Neighbours watched on in shock as a pair of brazen lovers pulled their trousers down and seemingly had sex by a block of Ware flats. A young man and woman, described as being around 20 by a witness, were seen engaged in a 15-minute romp by a set of stairs in Tudor Square, just off West Street at 8pm on Saturday (May 13). The couple "didn't seem to care if anyone saw", according to witness Kay Hamersley, despite the festivities for music event 'Ware is the Music' going on in the area at the same time. Miss Hamersley was having a cigarette by a window in her friend's flat when she saw the young couple walk into the square and snapped what happened next on her phone's camera. The dental nurse, 20, said: "First they were just standing there looking at each other, which I thought was quite odd so I called my friend over. "The young man then pushed the girl to the wall and started to pull her trousers and underwear down. He then put his ha...

NORTH KOREAN IMAGES SUGGEST MISSILE/S MAY BE CAPABLE OF HITTING ANYWHERE IN AMERICA - U.S EXPERTS SAY

By

North Korea said the new missile reached an altitude of about 4,475 km (2,780 miles) - more than 10 times the height of the International Space Station - and flew 950 km (590 miles) during its 53-minute flight. Images released by North Korea on Thursday appeared to show it has succeeded in developing a missile capable of delivering a nuclear weapon anywhere in the United States and it could be only two or three tests away from being declared combat ready, U.S.-based experts said on Thursday. North Korea released dozens of photos and a video after Wednesday's launch of the new Hwasong-15 missile, and leader Kim Jong Un declared the country had "finally realized the great historic cause of completing the state nuclear force". U.S.-based experts, some of whom have been sceptical about past North Korean claims to have put all of the United States in range, said data from the latest test and the photos appeared to confirm North Korea has a missile of suffici...

[5/5, 9:11 PM] ‪+234 802 948 1691‬: Your Land Or Your Blood. By Adamu Mohammed. Ever since President Muhammadu Buhari took over the mantle of leadership of this great country Nigeria, we(Hausa-Fulanis) have come under severe media attack from enemies of progress. Just because they are educated than us, they stereotype us with negativity. Just because they own and control the media, they use the media against us. But let me make something clear to you stupid fellows hating us, whether you love us or hate us, it doesn't change anything. We are who we are and we will continue to remain like that. We hate you even more and we can never love you because you are all infidels. I pity those of you who keep deluding yourselves that we can love and trust you simply because you worked against your people to our own advantage, never! I heard that the stupid Governor of Oyo State, Ajimobi said that they won't accept the proposed Grazing Bill. But my message to the filthy Yoruba pig...

JUDGE RIPS CONOR McGREGOR FOR 'DISRESPECT TO COURT'

By
Image
CONOR McGREGOR A judge in Ireland ripped into Conor McGregor on Thursday for his "disrespect to the court" after the famous fighter showed up tardy to pay a speeding ticket. McGregor had previously failed to show up twice for his court appearance over the ticket, and it was looking like he was going to make it a third time before he finally showed. In the time that she was waiting for him, judge Miriam Walsh of the Blanchardstown District Court vented about the disrespect the fighter was showing. "I'm getting nothing but fingers from Mr. McGregor. If he's making a case he has to be here," Walsh said to McGregor's solicitor, via The Mirror. "This is absolute disrespect to the court. I am very annoyed with Mr McGregor." McGregor apologized for being late once he did show. He pleaded guilty and paid his fine. As he left the court, McGregor was captured saying, "come and get me" to TV cameras. Conor McGregor @The...

By
The Acts Of Apostle Suleman (Must Read) Following the outrage that trailed the s*x scandal that has rocked popular cleric, Apostle Johnson, an author, Rudolf Ogoo Okonkwo has spoken out the matter. Apostle Johnson Suleman "Few days after he was born, some Prophets came from Warri to Benin (the place of his birth) with a message from God. When his parents desired to know what the message was, they said God told them "a prophet who would minister in God's presence has been born." His parents refused to listen further because they were Muslims and did not see the possibility of their son leaving their fold." From Apostle Suleman's website biography. Just like Prophet T.B. Joshua and other self-styled church leaders of their kind, little is known about the life of Apostle Suleman. The biography on his church's website simply proclaimed how he was born in a Muslim household and some prophets came and declared that the child would be a prophet. As he grew up, ...

By

Former Fifa President Sepp Blatter Former Fifa president Sepp Blatter, who was disgraced out of office amid a corruption scandal in 2015, has admitted he should have stepped down earlier. The 81-year-old was banned over ethics breaches, bringing an end to his 17-year reign, following a suspected two million Swiss franc ($2 million, 1.8 million euro) payment to ex-Uefa president Michel Platini. "I should have stopped down myself earlier," Blatter said in an interview published by Swiss newspaper SonntagsBlick. Blatter, who was re-elected for a fifth term in May 2015 before promptly announcing his plans to resign, recalled the editor-in-chief of a Swiss magazine warning him the role of Fifa president had an expiration date. "At your place the date is 2014', he told me, and I said to him that sometimes it's written that the product can be consumed beyond this date if it's stored in a cool place," he said. Blatter was also asked about a report in German news...

THE WOMAN BEHIND THE STORY OF TRUMP'S TWITTER STORM

By

The woman behind the story Of Trump's Twitter storm March 7th 2017, Late last month, a former British Member of Parliament named Louise Mensch took to her favorite medium, Twitter, to make her latest bombshell allegation: “I absolutely believe that Andrew Breitbart was murdered by Putin,” Mensch wrote in a Feb. 24 tweet about the 2012 death of the conservative founder of Breitbart.com (who, according to a coroner’s report, died near his house in Los Angeles from heart failure with no sign of foul play). Until recently, Mensch’s conspiracy-minded tweets about dark Russian and American plots didn’t get much attention.  But all that changed after President Trump charged in his own Saturday morning Twitter storm that President Barack Obama had wiretapped his phone, an explosive allegation that appears to trace back to a four-month old story by Mensch in Heat Street, a libertarian-oriented website site owned by Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp. On Nov. 7, the day before the presid...
