Davido Reacts to Claims His Babymama was Bounced at their Daughter's Birthday


OluFamous.Com really felt it would be wrong if Sophia Momodu was truly "bounced" from her daughter's birthday party, so I went in search of an update to the claims and here's what I found:
Davido cleared the air that baby Imade's mum, Sophia, is in full custody of the baby. Hence, it could be that she just refused to show her face to the cameras that day to avoid social media folks insinuating that she's trying to get back with Davido again.


Both Davido and Sophia later cleared the air on Instagram that all is well, there's no baby dragging saga.

HANDS UP! Boko Haram Field Commander has been Captured


A joint military task force from Cameroon and Nigeria captured the deadly Boukar Kaou, a Boko Haram leader, during a raid in which 58 militants died, according to Cameroon’s government.

Kaou and five of his aides were captured in fighting in the Madawaya forest in northeastern Nigeria near the border with Cameroon on May 10 and 11, Issa Tchiroma Bakary, a spokesman for Cameroon’s government said in a statement read on state radio.

No soldiers died and 46 hostages were freed, including 18 women and 28 children.

Three Boko Haram camps were destroyed and a consignment of weapons was found.

The capture and detention of Kaou comes as French President Francois Hollande prepares to push for the rebuilding of the impoverished region around Lake Chad and establish state authority while keeping military pressure on Boko Haram.

The Islamist militant group has been waging a seven-year offensive that killed tens of thousands of people and spilled over into Cameroon, Chad and Niger, displacing as many as seven million people, according to the US government.

Thus far, the Nigerian military has lived up to our expectations, hitting the heart of the heartless terrorists.

Cultists Clash Openly In Edo State, Four Persons Killed


Four persons have been reportedly killed during a clash between two rival cult groups in Benin, the Edo State capital. There have been reported cases of renewed cult wars between members of the Black Axe and Eiye Confraternity, which had led to the arrest of many suspected cultists by the police.

The latest incident occurred on Sunday evening after an argument ensued between two persons belonging to different cult groups at a popular bar along Sakponba Road in Benin City.

One of them, suspected to be a member of the Black Axe, was said to have been injured during an altercation and was later rushed to a hospital.

Irked by the development and apparently out on a revenge mission, his friends were said to have attacked and killed three members of an opposition group in different locations within the area.

One of the victims, simply identified as Lawal, was allegedly shot dead at Ezoba, along Sokponba Road.

His assailants were said to have earlier attacked his younger brother, leaving him with severe machete cuts.

Edo State Police PRO, Osifo Abiodun, confirmed the attack. He, however, said that the command had yet to ascertain the number of casualties from the clash.

“We did our intervention by deploying our men in the area; we are on a manhunt for those fingered. We are very sure that before the end of tomorrow (Tuesday) we will be able to arrest those that have been fingered in the action,” the Police PRO assured.

Iran arrests models for posting photos of themselves online without headscarves


8 models in Iran have been arrested and forced to grovel in public by the country's morality Police, for posting glamorous pictures of themselves online without covering their heads with headscarves. Stating that such 'un-Islamic acts' as women exposing their hair in public was unacceptable.

She was charged with 'promoting western promiscuity' and forced to give public 'self-criticism.' 'All people love beauty and fame,' Arab said. 'They would like to be seen, but it is important to know what price they will pay to be seen.'
The arrests were made in a sting operation code-named Spider-2 which specifically targeted Instagram users.

The sting identified 170 people using Instagram pages - 59 photographers and makeup artists, 58 models, 51 fashion salon managers and designers, and two active institutions.

The head of the sting operation Javad Babaei said on state television on Sunday:
'We found out that about 20 per cent of the (Iranian) Instagram feed is run by the modelling circle,' They have been 'making and spreading immoral and un-Islamic culture and promiscuity'.

Babaei said it was the role of the judiciary to 'confront those who committed these crimes in an organised manner'.

In addition to the eight arrests, criminal cases have been opened against 21 other people, he said. The sting operation has homed in on a database of over 300 popular Iranian Instagram accounts and connected accounts.
 
According to reports those arrested include Melikaa Zamani, Niloofar Behboudi, Donya Moghadam, Dana Nik, Shabnam Molavi, Elnaz Golrokh and Hamid Fadaei

Africa's Richest Man Aliko Dangote Suspends Production Of Tomato Paste

Dangote Tomato Processing Factory, a newly commissioned company owned by Africa’s richest man, Aliko Dangote, has suspended its operations due to the unavailability of its most important raw material – fresh tomatoes. The Managing Director of the factory, Abdulkadir Kaita, told the News Agency of Nigeria on Friday that several tomato farms in in Kano, Jigawa, Plateau, Katsina and Kaduna states (all located in Nigeria’s northern region), were affected by Tuta Absoluta, a leaf mining moth and common tomato pest, which destroyed all the tomato farms – a situation that has resulted in scarcity and higher prices for the commodity.
Britain’s Prince Andrew, Duke of York, (L) shakes hands with Nigerian businessman Aliko Dangote (R) at the London Global African Investment Summit at St James’ Palace in London on December 1, 2015.

Kaita however said that production would resume during the next irrigation season.
Dangote Group, the Nigerian conglomerate owned by Africa’s richest man, Aliko Dangote, launched the $20 million tomato processing facility in Kano state, northern Nigeria earlier this year. The tomato processing plant has a daily production capacity of 1,200 metric tones per day, and will primarily buy tomatoes from farmers in the Kadawa Valley in Kano state and will pay them a guaranteed price of about $700 per ton of tomatoes.
