Female Newsreader Lands Role after Leaving Her Blouse Open

A 21-year-old student Enki Bracaj, was hoping for a reporting job on an Albanian TV station and it seems her weird interview approach worked because she landed an anchor role after performing a screen test for the Zjarr news channel in Albania by auditioning with her blouse undone and open boobs.

Reacting, Enki said the stunt is "a way to put myself ahead in a competitive industry."

“It is not easy to enter the world of television. It was obvious that if I wanted to make it I had to be brave and offer something different."

Wearing a cream blouse, the lady sat with the whole front gaping open as she practised her news slot.
Funny enough, after her bizarre performance, she managed to walk away with the job.

A spokesperson for the channel said:
"Most agree that her presentation style is somewhat awkward, but we are working on that and to be honest it doesn't seem to be doing any harm to her viewing figures."

The lady said, "I checked first with my parents and when I found that they also supported me in my decision, it wasn't a problem for me to go ahead like this. There is not just a lot of competition to get on television, but also competition between the channels."

She added: "I simply found a way to put myself ahead and also to ensure that my channel gets the best ratings."

Sources say many viewers, especially men, seem to like watching her read the news. Lol!

Police raids brothel in Calabar, arrest 54 prostitutes

No fewer than 54 prostitutes alongside 58 men were on today arrested by police during a raid in a popular brothel called ‘Flour mill’ in the Calabar metropolis. The operation which was carried out by detectives from the Cross River State police command, was led by Governor Ben Ayade’s security adviser (SSA), Mr. Jude Ngaji.

Briefing newsmen after the operation, Ngaji said the brothel which used to be a hotel has now become a notorious place for commercial sex workers in Calabar.

He explained that the brothel poses a security threat in the State, adding that it now serves as a breeding ground for criminal activities. According to Ngaji, the brothel has become a hideout for criminals as well hard drug merchants in the State.

“Given the tourism status of Cross River, Gov. Ayade frowns on this despicable act where under aged girls are engaged in prostitution. He has therefore vowed to take drastic and decisive measures to stem the ugly trend. He has directed that the place be raided and shut down forthwith. Consequently, the governor has warned that other persons or groups involved in this unwholesome practice should in their own interest desist henceforth or face the wrath of the law”, he said.

The SSA, who advised teenage girls to always engage themselves in meaningful activities, said Nigeria does not have any law that legalizes prostitution. ``Each time you pass here at night, you find under-aged girls of about 13 and 14 years standing by and waiting for men.

This place has become an area of concern to the State and Cross Riverians. This place has become a Sodom and Gomorrah in Cross River and the raid was carried out to stop prostitution and criminality in the state. All the girls that were caught here are prostitutes and some of them were caught in a compromising position. No law legalizes prostitution in Nigeria. The girls would be tried in court and we will ensure that they are returned back to their respective states’’, he added.

Here Are All the Details from Saraki's Trial at Code of Conduct

The Senate President, Bukola Saraki, finally entered the dock on Tuesday at the Code of Conduct Tribunal in Abuja where he was arraigned on 13-counts for false assets declaration charges.

Saraki arrived at the tribunal at 9.20am in company with many senators, beating by 40 minutes the 10am deadline the judge had set for the Inspector General of Police to provide the Senate president.

From the dock Saraki claimed that he was hearing about the charges against him for the first time, saying he ought to have been invited and briefed by the CCB as the Senate President...

He pleaded not guilty to all the 13 charges slammed on him by the Code of Conduct Bureau and his trial has been scheduled to hold on October 21, 22 and 23.

Saraki appeared after two courts had refused his request that the proceedings at the CCT be stopped.

While speaking, he said, “I am the Senate President and I have respect for the rule of law. Mr. Chairman, I observed that they have made reference to the good work the Senate has done in the administration of criminal justice. If there is an allegation of false declaration of assets, the Code of Conduct Bureau shall refer the person involved to the tribunal after giving the person an opportunity to explain if the facts are true. But in this case, I was not given the opportunity.

“I thought the CCB should have called me and given me the right to fair hearing. I am hearing about the charges for the first time. We are all here and the whole world is watching when we said we are in new Nigeria. I want to state here that I am not guilty.”

After listening to arguments of all parties, Justice Danladi Umar held that the tribunal had the jurisdiction to compel the Senate President to not only appear in person but to also be moved to the dock.

He said, “It is in the view of the tribunal that the trial before it is criminal in nature and it has jurisdiction over criminal matters, the defendant should therefore proceed to the dock.”

Saraki was granted bail in self recognition and the full trial will now commence on October 21.

Getting serious...Serena Williams hangs out with Drake's Mum

Serena Williams hung out with Drake's Mom during his restaurant opening in Canada. Here's how TMZ is reporting it.

'Big step for Serena and Drake ... the tennis star jetted up to Canada for the opening of Drake's restaurant Monday night -- and hung out with the rapper's mother!! Drake was in Toronto to launch his new eatery Fring's ("I got onion rings, gotta lotta onion rings") ... along with the two ladies in his life. Serena looked smokin' hot -- high heels and a pencil skirt -- and according to people inside, there was the usual restaurant PDA with Drake.

Unclear how much time Serena spent with Drake's mom -- but we're told the music was so loud inside, it would have been tough to have that "So, you're dating my son" conversation anyway.

As for Drake, he posted a pic from inside the restaurant with his mom ... calling her his "one and only." No word if Drake's dad showed up -- after we spoke with him last time, seems he was also waiting for some quality time with his son's new boo.'
