From TMZ

Karrueche is done with Chris Brown's possessiveness and his henchman's violent threats ... and she's firing back.

Chris' ex is responding to a threat made by a member of Chris' posse ... a threat directed at Marques Houston, who gave thumbs up to the pic she posted of her amazing body.

The threat was in the form of a photo of 2 guns, with the caption, "Ni**as sho no how to disrespect, I don't care if they not still together."

Karrueche thinks it's time for Chris, and any of his friends, to get over it -- "I'm bored and tried of this situation. I don't get it because I'm single."

She adds, "I thought we have all matured and moved on. Especially since Chris has been seen with multiple women since the breakup. I don't want anything to do with any type of violence or negativity."

Karrueche tells us she and Marques are just friends, nothing more. The two of them just finished filming a movie together. Chris has been radio silent since the threat was posted.

Wife smashes alarm clock over husband's head after he asks for a goodnight kiss

A wife smashed an alarm clock over her husband’s head after he asked for a goodnight kiss.
Kathryne Borthwick, 26 – who met husband Monty, 59, online – flew into a rage after a drinking spree.

A judge heard Mr Borthwick took off his shirt in the bedroom and demanded: “What about my goodnight kiss?”

Prosecuting lawyer Tim Dracass said: “She picked up an alarm clock and started to hit him with it.
"The clock broke.
"Mrs Borthwick then grabbed her husband’s mobile and began hitting his head.”

The court heard Mr Borthwick begged “Please, please” as blood ran down his head and his furious wife swore and threw his CDs around their Portsmouth home.

An ambulance was called at 9.45pm and Mr Borthwick was left with two cuts to his head after the attack on April 18.

Mrs Borthwick, who arrived to the UK from The Philippines last year, admitted assault with actual bodily harm and was given a 12-month community order.

The court heard that Mr Borthwick did not want his wife to be charged but that it was not the first time she had behaved in this way after drinking.

Portsmouth crown court heard she had quit drinking and the pair wanted to forget the “nightmare”.

Judge Roger Hetherington said: “For some reason, which is something of a mystery, you flew at him in a rage hitting him with whatever came to hand.”

Former Pres. Jonathan’s body guards posted out of the Presidential Villa

After months of not knowing their fate, the Department of State Services personnel who served as Body Guards to President Goodluck Jonathan have been posted out of the Villa to various state commands.
Reliable sources at the Presidential Villa said that the signal for the posting of the over 150 body guards who had remained redundant following the directive by the ADC to President Buhari that they should leave the presidential villa came yesterday.

It would be recalled that following the swearing in of President Buhari, personnel of the Department of State Services who had traditionally served as Body Guards to the president were ordered to leave the Villa on the instructions of the ADC to the president.

According to the source while a few of the DSS personnel were posted to the headquarters of the DSS, most of them were posted to various state commands of the service.
The source said:

“Almost all of our personnel who were body guards in the villa have been transferred out of the state House. A new crop of body guards who were trained for the purpose have taken over. They will take over from the soldiers who were initially drafted to man the various beats hitherto occupied by the DSS personnel. That phase of transition is over” the source said.

About 250 personnel of the DSS are expected to take over the job of protecting the president from the military personnel.
It was gathered that the reason why they were replaced was sue to the bitter experience during the sallah prayers when president Buhari was almost mobbed by enthusiastic Nigerians who overwhelmed the military men that were supposed to protect him.

President Buhari himself confessed that but for God’s protection,   he would have been mobbed by the crowd that thronged the Eid prayer ground.

Apple music refuses to allow Drake perform at Lil Wayne’s hurricane Katrina Benefit Concert

Apple Music is apparently really territorial when it comes to Drake because they got upset when they found out he would be performing at Lil Wayne's benefit concert for Weezy’s Tha Carter Fund on the tenth anniversary of Hurricane Katrina  that Tidal would be streaming and because he has high stakes with Tidal it would only make sense for them to stream it live.

When word got out that Drake would be making an appearance at Lil Wayne’s concert, (hence putting his performance on Tidal) Apple Music went ballistic! Apple Music is so pissed that they threatened to sue if Drake appeared on Tidal.

According to Page Six, Drake would be breaching his contract if he appears on Tidal since it would definitely cause a conflict of interest .

A source said to Page Six:

“Legal letters have been sent to Tidal warning that Drake cannot appear on the Tidal stream of the festival, either solo or part of a group, and if the warning was ignored, the liabilities could be up to $20 million,”.

Open Letter To President Mohammadu Buhari

By Benjamin Okike, Department of Computer Science, University of Abuja, Nigeria

Dear Sir,
My name is Benjamin Okike, a teacher in the Department of Computer Science, University of Abuja, Nigeria. I am from Abia State, precisely Arochukwu in Arochukwu Local Government Area of the South East Geo-political zone.

I was in my early years in the

secondary school when your military administration was toppled by your successor. Young as I was then, I remember telling people that singular action of the abortion of your military government was not going to benefit the country because of your War Against Indiscipline (WAI) which may likely be abandoned by your successor.

Not too long after which, that constituent of indiscipline known as corruption ‘was displayed as wares’ in the market place which can be sold and bought in the open without fear of apprehension. This has led to the misfortunes experienced in the country till date.

I am not holding brief for the people from my geo-political zone, but I must express my profound displeasure over your appointments into key positions of your administration without considering anyone from my geo-political zone worthy of appointment into any of those positions.

I must confess that since 2003 that you showed interest in the nation’s democracy, I, as a person have not only voted for you, but had campaigned for you publicly because of your promise for change coupled with your past experience where you had shown no interest in materialism.

Since you took over from your predecessor on 29th May, 2015, I have always defended any singlar action you had taken including previous appointments into key positions, but now, I am no longer comfortable with your recent appointments into key positions. In as much as you may have reason(s) for your action, but not finding anyone from South East geo-political zone, one of the three major tribes in the country as an apointee into any key position in your administration is not good for an elder statesman of your kind.

If you are using election result where it is claimed that only 5% of the votes is from South East Geo-political zone as the basis for appointment, then I would advise that you consider a man of God, Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka from the South East Geo-political zone who staked his life for your election. Since you cannot appoint him as a man of God, then consider his people for appointment into key positions in your administration.

Though, I do not have any evidence to substantiate my view about the 5% votes from South East Geo-political zone, it is possible that this zone actually gave you 95% votes, but the political manipulators reversed the result in favour of your predecessor. I remember when I traveled to my home to campaign for you, some of my friends contributed towards your election and I cannot see any justifiable reason why after making token contribution would turn their backs against during the election proper.

Yours Faithfully,
Benjamin Okike
