Mexican drug lord threatens Donald Trump...says 'I'll make you eat your words'


Hours after billionaire businessman Donald Trump ranted against Mexico's billion dollar drugs lord known as 'El Chapo', head of the powerful Sinaloa Cartel, who escaped from prison on Sunday July 12th, his son's twitter handle threatened the American billionaire, telling him he will eat his word.
Following his escape, Mr Trump had tweeted that the drug lord embodies 'everything that is wrong with Mexico' and the man hit back at Trump via his son Ivan's twitter account writing
'If you keep pissing me off I'm going to make you eat your words you f**king blonde milk-s*****'.  (In Mexico, a milk-s****** is a homophobic slur)
The US-presidential hopeful is taking the threat seriously and has contacted the FBI to investigate the source of the Twitter account
 

Woman's Teeth Knocked Off By Her Baby Daddy In Lagos


This is really sad! Why should a man in his right senses pounce on his babymama and beat her mercilessly like this? Guys, any man who beats his woman is not alright. Stop it, if you are one of those who do.

Below are details of what happened between the man and this woman who has a child for him:
This is what I saw this morning.. Sigh* when will people learn that domestic violence doesn't stop a thing?! That's the man walking away from the camera, he knocked out two teeth from his baby mama because she refused to allow him see the child he supposedly doesn't feed. 
He is a driver named Dominic Akpan popularly called Archibong and she is Cecilia Etim (a domestic worker), both live in Ajah, Lagos. I don't care what she did and trust me man, no one will ever pay attention to you again, not after what you have done to this lady... #SAYNOTODOMESTICVIOLENCE 

Sule Lamido Smiling After Court Granted Him Bail In Abuja


I told you guys that ex-Governor Sule Lamido and his sons would not be in that prison sell for two months as ordered by a court in Kano, and that is how the saga has played out within just few days.

A Federal High Court in Abuja, on Tuesday, granted him bail on self-recognition and also granted his two sons bail, who are all standing trial from alleged money laundering.

Lamido, his sons, Mustapha and Aminu, and one Abubakar Wada, were arraigned on a 24-count charge of laundering N1.35billion belonging to the State when he was governor.

They were initially arraigned by the EFCC before Justice Evelyn Anyadike of the Federal High Court, Kano, who remanded them in prison without hearing their application for bail. The application for bail was transferred to Abuja for determination.

Ruling on the matter, Justice Gabriel Kolawole ordered Lamido to surrender all his travelling documents to the court’s Deputy Chief Registrar.

He also granted bail to Mustapha and Aminu, and their alleged accomplice, Wada, each in the sum of N25m and two sureties.

- in Nigeria once a political "criminal" is granted bail, the case will most likely die one way or the other.

Mum refuses to break into expensive BMW to save toddler son from heat



A mum has sparked outrage after she refused to allow firefighters to break into her car to save her toddler son from the heat because the vehicle was too expensive to damage.

The unnamed mother was unable to open the door of her BMW when it accidentally locked itself.
Her three-year-old son was trapped inside and was suffering in the heat as no windows were open.

Firefighters who arrived at the scene in Yiwu city, China, were about to break the glass to rescue the boy, but his mum told them she wanted to wait for a locksmith instead so the car would not be damaged.


Stunned onlookers looked on in horror as the toddler cried inside the vehicle as the oxygen levels rapidly went down.

Despite the mother’s desire to wait, firefighters eventually took matters into their own hands when the boy started to faint and they smashed the glass to rescue him.

One of the firefighters was quoted as saying: “It’s very dangerous to leave children inside cars, especially in such heat.
“It can threaten a child’s life in a very short time.”

The mother was blasted on social media, with one person writing:
"The mother shouldn’t have left her kid in the car in the first place. Even if the car did accidentally lock itself.
“What happens if someone breaks the window and abducts the kid?”
Another added: “It looks like the car is her real son.”
 Another: BMW needs to hire 'Mum' as spokeswoman or Marketing Director!!!
Screw the car, it can be fixed but your child cant be. Good job fire department
Better yet, why not just have her kid taken away? She was so prepared to let him die for her car. Give him to a family
This story hurts me so much. Lady for goodness sake it's your child in there :/

Black Pastor Jailed for Refusing To Wed Gay Couple In US


Since we Africans say we can no longer respect our traditional marriage again, that it is the white man's Court Marriage that we must follow, why are we running away from their Gay Marriage? Lol!

A pastor at the Christian Proctor Church in Vermont, has been sentenced to one year in federal prison after he refused to marry a gay couple.

The Honorable Myron Danus handed down the harsh sentence. “Religious freedom goes both ways, Mr. Horner,” Danus told a packed courtroom. “It is not your place to deny individuals the same rights that everyone else has, rights that were passed down and agreed upon in a court of law, the ultimate court, the Supreme Court. It is not your decision whether or not you agree with the law but more importantly that you follow it and enforce it.”

The Pastor, 56-year-old Paul Horner, had his lawyer speak to reporters on his behalf:
“We are currently disputing the guilty verdict and I am confident my client will be a free man here shortly,” said attorney Tom Downey. “Horner was just using his best judgement according to his rights and religious freedom in this country.”

According to investigation, the Christian Proctor Church is registered with the state as a “religious corporation” limited to performing “one-man-one-woman marriages as defined by the Holy Bible.”

But the church is also registered as a for-profit business and city officials said that means the owners must comply with state and federal regulations.

Steve Shand president of the Vermont Family Research Committee, said it is “open season on Americans who refuse to bow to the government’s redefinition of marriage.”

“Homosexuals are gay,” Shand told reporters. “Why should Christian ministers be forced to perform and celebrate any marriage that conflicts with their beliefs? It’s a slippery slope my friend. Pretty soon these same pastors will be forced to wed animals or kitchen appliances. This is not my America!”

But one Gwen Hawkins who is president of the LGBT Pride Center said she is happy with the court.

“We just want the same rights as everyone else and this guilty verdict sets a great precedent,” Hawkins said. “These fanatical Christians base their life on one verse in the Bible but they seem to forget the other 99% of the verses in the book. For example, why can’t we stone to death Bristol Palinfor having a baby out of wedlock? And what about her mother, Sarah Palin, breaking the rules of Corinthians 14:34 which clearly state that as a woman, she is not allowed to teach or to assume authority over a man; she must be quiet. But no, they like to pick the one verse in the Bible about gay people and build their camp around it,” reports NBC.

This is really getting interesting.

Naira Crashes Further to 240 against One Dollar


The naira hit another record low of 241 against the dollar at the parallel market on Monday as the Central Bank of Nigeria’s restrictions on foreign exchange sale fuelled unofficial trade in dollars.

The ban on importers from accessing the Nigerian foreign exchange markets for the importation of 41 items had led to the volatility of the naira-dollar exchange rate at the black market.

Since June 23 when the new forex rule became operational, the naira has fallen by 10.5 per cent from 218 to 241 against the greenback. Foreign exchange dealers said the artificial scarcity of the United States currency still pervaded the market, Reuters reported..

The new forex rule had led to huge demand at the parallel market, causing dealers to hoard the dollar in anticipation of further fall in the naira

Economic analysts had said the CBN needed to devalue the naira to allow the local currency achieve an equilibrium price against the dollar.

CBN however said it would not be focusing on the thinly-traded parallel market when determining the exchange rate, adding that people preferred to use the unofficial market for undocumented transactions.
