See Late Audu’s New Wife whose Dream of becoming 1st Lady Has Been Shattered


Life is in phases, live it right when you have the chance. When these photos of Abubaka Audu and his much younger wife went viral months back, many were left wondering and confused as to whether she was his daughter or wife, until she saw the second photo where both were kissing.
Her name is Olivia and she's half-caste. She hails from the Tiv-part of Benue State as her mum is from the Ugba/Unongo family. See photo of late Audu and the wife he allegedly abandoned...


In 2010, Audu was said to have abandoned his wife, Mrs. Aisha Audu with her 3 children in the US. She then filed a paper at the District Court of Maryland County where she sought protective order.

- everything will be history in some years from now; live right for your own good!

Protest across Chicago as black teen is shot 16 times by white cop, as he lay on the ground


The video of the shooting of 17-year-old Laquan McDonald (pictured inset) has been released and it's chilling. The dashcam footage shows a white police officer, Jason Van Dyke, (pictured inset right) shooting Laquan dead on the streets of Chicago. He shot Laquan 16 times at point blank range for 13 seconds as the young man laid motionless on the ground with smoke rising from his back.

The police officer claimed he felt threatened by the teenager and that was why he used his gun but he has since been charged with first-degree murder.
 
Yesterday, hundreds of protesters took to the streets after watching the video of the shooting which was released last night. They chanted '16 shots' and formed human blockades across roads in Chicago. Other demonstrators gathered outside police stations

Plane with 500 Nigerians deported from the UK arrives in Lagos

                 

500 Nigerians have been deported from the United Kingdom and arrived the Murtala Mohammed International Airport Lagos this morning. Many of them were deported for illegal stay permits. When interviewed, one of them said he was arrested by British police and was not allowed to even take his belongings before being deported. UK government plans to deport 29,000 Nigerians.

The Nigerian government has frowned at the mass deportation, stating that efforts must be made by the UK government to ensure those being deported are really Nigerians, medically fit to travel and have a role to play in the country - meaning they should be able to fit into Nigerian society.
