My mother-in-law the murderess: Behind the net curtains of a suburban London home, a horrific story of arranged marriage, claims of adultery, appalling murder and awesome courage...

Hello Friends!

For seven utterly terrifying years, I lived with a woman who had planned and executed a cold-blooded murder. She was my mother-in-law — and I feared that at any moment I’d become her next victim.
Why didn't I contact the police? Well, of course I did — though I was far too scared just to walk into a police station.

Instead, I called Crimestoppers and gave them every last chilling detail I knew about the plan to kill my vibrant young sister-in-law while on holiday in India. 

I also wrote an anonymous letter to our local police station in Hayes, Middlesex, and posted it. But nothing happened — nothing at all. Indeed, years later, my letter to the police was discovered languishing on a shelf at Hayes Police Station.

Why? After all, when 21-year-old Lucie Blackman (an English girl who worked as a hostess in a Tokyo bar) vanished in 2000, the British Prime Minister himself publicly criticized the Japanese for their failure to trace her. There was no such urgency in my sister-in-law’s case — yet Surjit was no less British than Lucie. She even worked for Her Majesty’s Customs & Excise at Heathrow. 

Was her disappearance considered a low priority because she was a Sikh? Did the police think that it was just a family matter? Or did they just mislay my letter?
Whatever the reason for their inaction, my mother-in-law was jubilant. As far as she was concerned, she’d literally got away with murder … 

Since as far back as I can remember, I’ve been obedient and respectful of my elders. At my childhood home in Hounslow, West London, I was washing up and doing laundry by the age of six.
By the time I was 19, my parents were keen for me to have an arranged marriage — and they thought they’d found the perfect family. 

The Athwals lived in Hayes and there were two sons, one of whom was already married. The other son, Hardave, worked for an electrical company and was seeking a wife.
Our two families met on neutral territory, at an aunt’s house, where we sat on opposite sides of the room, like opposing teams.

Gay bill: Britain may suspend aid to Nigeria...

British Prime Minister David Cameron
British Prime Minister - David Cameron...


Hello Friends!


British Prime Minister, David Cameron, on Friday said his government might consider cutting off aid to Nigeria over same sex marriage bill passed by the House of Representatives on Thursday. The Senate had passed its own version in November 2011.

Cameron spoke on a British Broadcasting Corporation programme monitored in Lagos.

He said he would take up the issue with President Goodluck Jonathan soon.
The prime minister said he would restate his government’s strong objection to the passage of the bill.

The prime minister was reacting to a question by a Nigerian resident in London, Bisi.

“When we meet with Nigerian politicians and leaders, we will be clear about those things we agreed on. We have to be clear where we disagree. We will make clear where we stand on those issues,” he said.

When asked whether Britain would consider stopping a projected 50 per cent increase in aid to Nigeria or cutting it outright, Cameron said, “Nothing is off the table. We need to have these conversations. We also have some very important objectives with Nigerians, for instance on how to deal with the appalling rates of poverty in Northern Nigeria, which are part of the problems confronting the country.”

Britain and some Western Nation had previously expressed opposition to the bill.
Cameron had in October 2011 threatened to cut off aid to countries which ban gay and lesbians.

Hello Friends!

My Thoughts: Our so called "civilized world" is becoming sick at each passing moment. What is the use of a room? This is extremely CRAZY & EVIL! 10 Weeks? They deserve a worse punishment!


A drunk couple who performed oral sex on each other at a busy rail and bus station while around 40 teenagers filmed them have been jailed for 10 weeks.
Jacqueline Holden, 37, and Sam Rowan, 22, had been drinking all day when they played up to the crowd of youngsters who captured the lewd act on their mobile phones at Barnsley Interchange.
Rowan even looked to the crowd for encouragement while Holden lay on the ground and he had oral sex with her.

The pair are said to have been horrified at their actions when they sobered up.
District Judge John Foster branded the pair's act 'disgusting' and sentenced the pair to a 10 week jail term to act as a deterrent to others.
Barnsley Magistrates’ Court heard how passers-by were shocked to see them carry out their raunchy act despite being moved on several times.

Chantel Lowery Green, prosecuting, said: 'Rowan was looking around and wanted the growing crowd to know what was going on. - they both played to the audience.
'Holden then lay on the floor and Rowan had oral sex with her.'
Holden initially denied any wrongdoing after her arrest and insisted that she would never have been bold enough to have sex in public.

EXCLUSIVE: Kim Kardashian in labour in Los Angeles hospital with first daughter by Kanye West...

It's a girl! Kim Kardashian has reportedly given birth to her first daughter with Kanye West on Saturday
It's a girl! Kim Kardashian has reportedly given birth to her first daughter with Kanye West on Saturday...

Hello Friends!

Congratulations Kim!!!

Kim Kardashian has reportedly gone into labour with her first child.
A source told Mail Online that the 32-year-old, who is in the last stages of her pregnancy, has been admitted to a hospital in Beverly Hills on Saturday morning.

The reality star has reportedly taken out a birthing suite at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center -- a hospital of choice among many celebrities including Britney Spears and Jessica Simpson.
No further details have been released, though her family members are surely in a state of joy.

This is the first child for Kim, who alongside  boyfriend Kanye West, announced her pregnancy around the New Year.
She has also been married twice before to musician Damon Thomas in 20s and most recently to basketball player Kris Humphries.

News that Kim's little girl was near arrival quickly spread across Twitter on Saturday with OK Magazine reporting that the couple were in the last stages of preparation and RadarOnline proclaiming that papa Kanye skipped out on a listening party for his latest album. 
The 36-year-old rapper, who celebrated his birthday on June 8, was last spotted at the Yeezus listening party in Switzerland Tuesday.

He's been heavily active in promoting his new album, due out on Tuesday, and fans wondered whether he was referring to his post-Kardashian lifestyle in the lyrics to his track, New Slave.
West raps: 'I’ll move my family out the country/So you can’t see where I stay/So go and grab the reporters/So I can smash his recorders.'

Kim was last seen Wednesday in a baby bumb-hugging green Top Shop dress having lunch at Casa Vega with her friend Jonathan Cheban.
On Friday her mother Kris Jenner was spotted visiting her pregnant daughter's Los Angeles mansion, possibly ready to get a head start with the packing.

Being proactive, Kris Jenner recently gushed that Kim Kardashian and her baby daddy Kanye West will be moving into her Calabasas, California abode.
This comes despite the fact that publicity-shy Kanye reportedly refused the invitation, with a source telling HollywoodLife.com he wasn't 'trying to impose on nobody.'

‘Ride me baby, ride me’: Shocking remark of primary school dinner lady, 41, as she simulated sex with boy, 12...

Lorraine King has been told to sign on the sex offenders' register after admitting sexual offences against a 12-year-old boy
Lorraine King has been told to sign on the sex offenders' register after admitting sexual offences against a 12-year-old boy...


Hello Friends!


A mother-of-two who worked in a primary school will be on the sex offenders’ register for five years after admitting sexual offences against a 12-year-old boy.
Former lunchtime supervisor Lorraine King was also given a nine-month community order when she faced Winchester Crown Court for sentencing last Friday, but she escaped a jail sentence.

Adam Hiddleston, prosecuting, said King had previously admitted a charge of inciting a child under 13 to engage in sexual activity and sexual assault on a child under 13.
On July 30 last year a neighbour of King’s called the police after she had seen behaviour that caused her concern.

Mr Hiddleston said the neighbour had seen 41-year-old King in her garden on all fours with a young boy stood behind her simulating sexual intercourse with her.

He said both were fully clothed and King was laughing and saying ‘ride me baby, ride me’.
Police spoke to the boy, who also confessed that King had on previous occasions touched him around the leg and knees while he had been at her home in Fleet.

He told police she had put her hand on his right leg and moved it up towards his thigh.
Mr Hiddleston also said the boy told police King randomly spoke to him about sex until he was able to change the subject. He added police interviewed King, who denied the touching allegations.

When police told her they had interviewed the boy about the simulated sexual intercourse, she accepted it but said it only happened on one occasion.
Mr Hiddleston said King denied telling the boy to ride her and said the claim probably came from a dispute with the neighbour.

Hello Friends!

A gang of drug dealers who enjoyed a millionaire lifestyle after flooding the capital with more than £5.5million worth of heroin have been jailed for a total of 72 years.

The pushers bought a chauffeur-driven Rolls-Royce, a £21,000 Rolex watch and designer threads from Paris after raking in a fortune running a string of drugs factories. 
They also drove supercars including a Lamborghini and amassed an impressive collection of Dom Perignon and Cristal champagne, worth £700 a bottle.

A total of 55.62kg, worth an estimated street value of more than £5.5million, was seized during a series of raids across London and Kent. 
The gang brazenly photographed themselves with the ‘spoils’ of their crimes, posing to show off the soles of their designer shoes and wearing three Rolexes, said prosecutor Kerry Broom.

The supply operation, busted in February this year, was led by Warren Desmangles, described as ‘pretty close to the top of the tree’.

Miley Cyrus to Billboard: I Put New Music Ahead of Family and Relationships...

Miley Cyrus...


Hello Friends!


Miley Cyrus opens up to Billboard about her new transformation into “Miley 2.0″ and everything she’s sacrificed to make her upcoming album.

The 20-year-old singer explains that feels completely distanced from the hugely popular music she recorded as a teenager.

“Right now, when people go to iTunes and listen to my old music, it’s so irritating to me because I can’t just erase that stuff and start over,” says Cyrus. “My last record [2009's EDM-inflectedCan't Be Tamed] I feel so disconnected from — I was 16 or 17 when I made it.”

She adds, “When you’re in your 20s, you just don’t really know that person anymore.”

“I want to start as a new artist,” says Cyrus. “I consider my upcoming album my first, really.”

Of her controversial new single “We Can’t Stop,” Cyrus says, “I’m 20 years old and I want to talk to the people that are up all night with their friends. It’s based on a true story of a crazy night I had: When I heard the song for the first time, it captured exactly what I was living.”

The performer’s new blend of musical styles has led many around Cyrus to misinterpret her intentions with the new album.

“A lot of people wanted to try to make me the white Nicki Minaj,” she reveals. “That’s not what I’m trying to do. I love ‘hood’ music, but my talent is as a singer.”

Perhaps most interesting is what Cyrus has to say about the sacrifices she’s made for the project.

She explains, ”I want my record to be the biggest record in the world, and I’ve given everything to get here, even down to friends and family and relationships — I’ve just put this music first.”

“That’s been kind of a trip: It’s not like I’m losing who I am — I actually found out more about who I am by making this music. I’m going on a journey, and that’s more than a lot of 20-year-olds can say,” continues Cyrus. “And I’m still going to change so much. Because I’m not the same person I was six months ago — I’m not even the same person I was two weeks ago.”

DON'T Fill Me In: Craig David boasts incredibly worked out body - but has he taken it too far?...

Body confident: Craig David shared his most inspiring self-portrait with his fans via Instagram on Thursday
Body confident: Craig David shared his most inspiring self-portrait with his fans via Instagram yesterday...


Hello Friends!

He may have had a song about different flavours of ice cream.

But it looks as though Craig David has not had a high-fat treat for quite some time, as he has shared a personal snap of his well worked-out physique with fans.

The 32-year-old British RnB singer wants to help his fans achieve their weight loss goals and admitted that even he struggles to keep off excess weight from time to time.
Craig displayed an image of himself on Instagram showing off maximum muscle and extremely low body fat.

Standing in just a pair of black shorts, the singer's body is rippling, almost straining, with muscle and he looks incredibly lean - but his face is gaunt.
However in an open letter to fans, he reveals that he does occasionally binge on junk food, and keeps his photograph to remind him of his goals and to help him keep his bad eating habits in check.

'One of the best ways to help yourself stay focused throughout those days when you feel a little weak or lost is to put little reminders around you to help bring you back to the present moment and focus you before you do something you'll look back on and regret,' the singer said via an extended Instagram message.

'In this case when I'm training hard and about to start my cutting phase where calories are reduced and I know there will be moments where I'll wanna eat every chocolate bar in my cupboard or especially when travelling on planes back and forth from Miami to Europe all the time,' he went on.

Omotola husband’s scrap plane causes panic in Lagos...

The Plane and Onlookers...


Hello Friends!


A scrap plane formerly owned by the late Apostle Gabriel Oduyemi of Bethel Ministries, Ajah, Lagos, caused panic in the city on Thursday as rumour spread that another aircraft had crashed in Lagos.

It was learnt that the plane, which was recently released to Capt Matthew Ekeinde, husband of Nollywood star, Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde, was being dragged to Badagry area of the state before its tyre burst. The incident forced the new owner to dump the plane in a nearby filling station.

Hundreds of residents trooped out with their smart phones and camera, and queued behind the gate of Dapsey Oil filling station at Igando where the plane was parked.
A senior employee of the filling station said the plane, with registration number N972TF, was being towed from Muritala Muhammed Airport, Ikeja to Badagry when one of the tyres burst.

He said, “The plane was brought here around 2am after one of its tyres burst. It was being towed by a red vehicle, but after it got to Igando, they discovered it would be difficult to get it to its destination with burst tyre, which was why they brought it here.”

The Lagos State Deputy Police Public Relations Officer, Damasus Ozoani, told the News Agency of Nigeria that the police provided escort for the plane.
He said, “About 12.45am, the command got a directive to escort the jet from MMIA Ikeja to Badagry by road.

Lebanese suspects are Hezbollah military wing members —SSS...


Director-General of the SSS, Ekpeyong Ita
Director-General of the SSS, Ekpeyong Ita...


Hello Friends!


Investigations into the activities of the co-owner of Amigo Supermarket, Mustapha Fawaz, and three other Lebanese – Abdalah Tahini, Talal Rouda and Khosai Nouridine – arrested in connection with the armoury and Hezbollah terror cell in Bompai, Kano State, have taken an international dimension, according to the State Security Service.

Also, preliminary investigations have established a more serious case of terrorism against the Lebanese suspects.

These revelations emerged in a counter-affidavit filed by the SSS to oppose a suit before an Abuja Federal High Court, in which the Lebanese are challenging their arrest and detention.

The Lebanese joined the SSS, the Inspector-General of Police and the Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice as defendants in the suit in which they demanded N50bn compensation, as well as an order restraining the defendants from extraditing them without following due process.

But in a counter-affidavit filed by the SSS, the security agency opposed the Lebanese application, and instead advanced reasons why it should continue to hold onto the suspects.
It told the court that ongoing investigations into the activities of the Lebanese suspects had taken an international dimension.

There were also indications that the Lebanese might face terrorism-related charges as the SSS in the counter-affidavit, also informed the court that preliminary investigations had established a terrorism case against them.

Part of the counter-affidavit read, “That preliminary investigation has established a more serious case of terrorism.
“That the investigation has assumed an international dimension and sophistication requiring time and advanced expertise to conclude.”

The SSS insisted that the suspects were members of the Hezbollah military wing, an international terrorist organisation.

The security agency further told the court that “some of the suspects are currently at large,” stressing that a premature release of the suspects would jeopardize the investigations.

Court awards N4m against police for shooting subsidy protesters...



Hello Friends!

My Thoughts: Are you kidding me? The lives of these innocents are worth just N4M? This is  outrageous!

A Lagos High Court, Ikeja on Friday awarded N4m as compensation to four protesters who were shot by the dismissed Divisional Police Officer of Pencinema, Segun Fabunmi, during the protest against subsidy removal in January 2012.

Justice Bola Okikiolu-Ighile, in her judgment, awarded the total sum of N4m damages against the police and Fabunmi for “recklessly shooting and inflicting bodily injury” on the protesters.

Why we prefer live human beings – Suspected Human parts dealer...

The suspects
The Suspects...


Hello Friends!


Operatives of the Special Anti Robbery Squad, SARS, Ikeja have arrested three fleeing members of a syndicate who allegedly specialized in selling live humans and decomposing human parts for money rituals.

Their arrest came barely three weeks after some of their members were paraded at the Lagos State Police Command, where they confessed to have sold live human beings for N40,000, hands—N4,000 and head—N8,000.
Those recently arrested are Gazali Akewadola (60), the native doctor who allegedly offered N40,000 for a live human being, Alfa Taofeek Akinola (35) and Kazeem Sanni (25).

To the bewilderment of all, Gazali confessed that live human beings were cheaper than buying dead human parts, saying all parts of a live human being are vital in the preparation of money ritual.

For instance, he said a life human being was bought for N40,000, “but at the end of the day, you get a lot of expensive parts from it. Aside that, it is even more potent because the efficacy of the charm or concoction prepared with live human parts cannot be compared with the ones prepared with dead parts.

“When a life human being is killed, one will get fresh blood which is used in preparing some charms. The same body will also give you hairs from private part, head and some mustache which are used for other ritual purposes. The private part is also very useful for the preparation of effective concoction. The head,flesh intestines, liver, heart, eyes, lips and tongues can be used for pepper soup which is usually very delicious than that of animal meat. I usually take the pepper soup so as to assure those who patronize us that it is not harmful. It also fortifies one spiritually.

Teacher's wife's 'anger after finding schoolgirl's nail varnish in the cottage she shared with her husband'...

On trial: The girl was 14 at the time of the alleged kiss with 30-year-old Jeremy Forrest (pictured today outside Lewes Crown Court in East Sussex)
On trial: The girl was 14 at the time of the alleged kiss with 30-year-old Jeremy Forrest (pictured today outside Lewes Crown Court in East Sussex)...


Hello Friends!

A teacher's wife became angry after discovering nail polish belonging to his schoolgirl lover at the marital home, a court was told today.

Jeremy Forrest told his 15-year-old pupil that his year-long marriage to Emily Forrest was a ‘hollow sham’ and that they had effectively split up, Lewes Crown Court in East Sussex heard.
But the 30-year-old - who is currently on trial for child abduction - was still sharing a cottage in Ringmer, East Sussex, with his wife, even after he started to secretly sleep with the girl there. 

The girl said in an interview with police that a few weeks after their affair started, his wife found one of her nail varnishes she had left there.

‘She was angry but because they had split up but they were still married and that’s when he told her he was seeing someone else,’ the teenager said in an interview played in court.
She added that Forrest’s marriage was an issue for her, saying: ‘The fact that he has a wife has always been a problem for me. I was like "Why are you with me?" You’re meant to be in love with the person you marry’.

The court also heard Forrest had looked up how long he could face in jail for having sex with a child as details emerged of their escape to France.
Asked about the possible consequences, the girl said she was aware she was under the age of consent - but that the age difference between them did not matter.

Forming a relationship with the girl was ‘a risk he was willing to take’, the court heard. She added: ‘He did look up how many years he would be in prison, not for taking me to France but what had previously happened, and he told me that.’

The court had earlier heard the schoolgirl tell how the two of them first kissed in a classroom. The girl was allegedly 14 at the time of the clinch with Forrest, which took place after they had been tweeting and texting regularly.

In the days leading up to the kiss, the teenager, who cannot be named, said she attended Bishop Bell Church of England School in Eastbourne, East Sussex, early specifically to see him.
In a videoed police interview played at court, the girl, now 16, said: ‘I do remember being in his room and it was just me and him. He said “I really want to kiss you” and I said “I really want to”.

‘It got to the point where there was only so much of a friendship you could have before it developed into something else.’ She went on: ‘It ended up being in his classroom.’
As the relationship turned sexual two months later after she had turned 15, the girl said Forrest knew what the consequences would be for him - and that he could face prison.

She said in the interview, dated October 3 last year: ‘He told me that he didn't want to take advantage of me, and I just didn't have a problem with it any way.

Michael Jackson's chaotic bedroom in unseen photos: New images as promoter tells trial he was 'scared to death' by star's treatment...



Hello Friends!


These are the shocking images which further detail Michael Jackson's tragic spiral into prescription pill dependency, revealed as his family pursue a lawsuit against his concert promoters. 

The evidence pictures, released by the Los Angeles Police Department this week, show numerous pill bottles, oxygen tanks and medical supplies littered around the superstar's bedroom at the time of his death on June 25, 2009. 

One image, which was not among the dozens of pictures shown as part of the Conrad Murray manslaughter trial, reveals a metal stand with a hanging bag of intravenous fluids attached.

In the background are numerous portraits of unidentified babies along with a small picture of Charlie Chaplin. Several canisters of what appears to be oxygen stand next to a wooden dresser topped with gilded mirror.

Michael Jackson's mother Katherine is suing AEG Live, claiming it failed to properly investigate her son's personal doctor Conrad Murray and missed warning signs about his failing health.
Murray was convicted of involuntary manslaughter in 2011 after giving Jackson a lethal dose of the anesthetic propofol.

In the new photo collection, prescription pill bottles are seen lined up on a nightstand alongside over-the-counter products and a bottle of water while empty containers roll around on the floor. 
Along with propofol, the names of drugs Diazepam and Lidocaine are marked on some bottles' labels.

In one telling image, which appears to have been taken in a car, there is a list of nearby 24-hour pharmacies and the phone numbers. 
Conrad Murray's medical bag is also indicated in one picture, according to RadarOnline, stashed high in a closet in the superstar's dressing room. 

There are also similar images from Murray's trial including shots of Jackson's iconic embroidered jackets hanging in a closet and stacks of movies on a nightstand.

Model, 21, convinced she'll catch an STI from her toilet seat, spends £300 a month on antibacterial products and can never have sex for fear of being infected...

Hitachi Baylou says she's still a virgin because her OCD has robbed her of a sex life
Hitachi Baylou says she's still a virgin because her OCD has robbed her of a sex life...


Hello Friends!


An aspiring model who wishes to marry and have a family is too scared to even shake hands with a man.
Hitachi Baylou, 21, has suffered from crippling OCD for three years, magnified by fear of catching a sexually transmitted disease. 

Completely unable to have a sexual relationship with a man - or even to come into contact with another person - Hitachi spends over £300 a month on antibacterial products, convinced she'll catch STIs from toilet seats, furniture or cupboard doors. 

The young woman is so terrified she will 'catch something', she panics if she so much as grazes a jacket collar when giving a hug.
'If I brush the door I panic and have to wipe my hands immediately,' she said on This Morning today.

She went on to say that men are less than understanding of her difficult condition.
'I have been on dates and described my OCD, but they just say, "You don't need to do that" - they think it's so simple.'

Cognitive behavioural therapist Katie D'Ath joined the young woman on the breakfast television show to explain there is hope available through cognitive behavioural therapy.

'Not all cognitive behavioural therapists know how to treat people with obsessive disorders,' she says.


'Specifically, they need to practice exposure and response prevention, which is essentially where they start to gradually expose themselves to their fear and not perform the response they usually perform.' 
Brought up by a strict single mother, Hitachi Baylou developed OCD at the age of 18.

'I started using Fairy Liquid on my hands, then upgraded to baby wipes, and then to antibacterial wipes.'
'I wipe my bag handle, phone, kettle, taps... When I wake up in my room I get the wipes ready to go and wipe the kettle handle, toaster - I worry that a fly has gone in and spread bacteria.
My main fear is catching something.'

She later visited her mother and they had a serious conversation about the dangers of STIs.
'I went home afterwards and wiped everything very excessively. I thought, "What if I didn't do it enough before I left".
'Hitachi photographs and documents everything she eats and sometimes loses sleep and cries about her condition'
'It's really hard to let go of.'

She's been pursuing modelling since last year, and her OCD seems to also be getting in the way of those ambitions too.
'I have to talk to the make-up artist,' she says.
As well as feeling the need to ensure tools and make-up used on her face are extremely clean, she also has to talk to chefs and waiters in restaurants.

'It's really hard for people to understand. It's exhausting.'
She also fears people think she is stuck up or rude.
Her OCD takes on many different forms. She photographs and documents everything she eats and sometimes loses sleep and cries about her condition.

'The other day sitting on my bed in my bedroom and I got food on the mattress cover. I thought it had gone on the mattress. I kept wiping and wiping. I can't really ever relax,' she said.

He told the US newspaper: 'This is my baby. This isn't America's baby.'

Hello Friends!

My Thoughts: I cannot understand why men who date Kim always get obsessed with her image! They always cheat on her with women that look like her in so many ways than one... 

A Canadian model claims rapper Kanye West cheated on pregnant girlfriend Kim Kardashian after they met at one of his shows. 

In stunning claims Leyla Ghobadi, 24, told America's Star magazine that their fling started in July 2012 and continued even after Kim had announced her pregnancy after Kanye dismissed his relationship with the reality star as just 'for publicity and nothing serious'.

Explaining her decision to reveal the relationship, brunette Leyla said: 'This is going to destroy the Kardashian family. It’s bad. It’s really bad. It’s just embarrassing. But if I were Kim and about to have a baby, I would want to know.'

Kim's representatives have denied the reports, while Kanye's people have yet to respond to MailOnline's request for comment.
Kanye is said to have first set his sights on curvy model Leyla when he saw her dancing in the crowd at his show in Atlantic City in July last year.

And despite Kim also being present at the gig in Revel’s Ovation Hall, Kanye reportedly instructed a member of his entourage to seek out Leyla and invite her backstage. 
The rapper is then reported to have invited Leyla for cocktails at AC’s HQ Nightclub, before asking her to come back to his hotel room.

Kanye then reportedly asked Leyla and her friends, who had driven down from Montreal to watch his show, if they wanted to attend the concert the next evening, and gave them backstage passes.
And while Leyla admits she knew Kanye was with Kim at the time, she said the 36-year-old musician told her the relationship was 'for publicity and nothing serious'.

Abiola’s betrayers still in govt – NADECO...

Chief M.K.O. Abiola,
The Late Chief MKO Abiola...


Hello Friends!


National Democratic Coalition on Tuesday said those who connived with the military to annul June 12, 1993, presidential election reportedly won by business mogul, Chief MKO Abiola, were still in government.

Chairman, NADECO, Rear Admiral Ndubuisi Kanu (retd.), stated this during the 19th anniversary of June 11, 1994 Epetedo Declaration by Abiola.

Kanu, in a speech entitled ‘19 Years After the Epetedo Declaration: Where is the Sovereign Power of the People?’, said, “Many who connived with the clique in those debasing and disenfranchising years are in power today, even masquerading as champions of democracy.

“Such people include those who chaired Abiola’s winning party, the Social Democratic Party, now today sitting atop party’s board of trustees.

“Some reign at the pinnacle of the legislative arm of government in Abuja. There are numerous others in the arms of government and even among the progressives, who ought really to search their conscience, if the survival, well-being and progress of Nigeria is truly in their agenda.”

He restated the call for a Sovereign National Conference, saying the conference remained the panacea for the country’s socio-economic and political development.

He said the 1999 Constitution was imposed on Nigerians in utter negation of their sovereignty.
Another NADECO leader, Chief Ayo Opadokun, urged pro-democracy groups to do more to liberate the country.

He said, “We need to do more than we are doing. We need to get ourselves organised in our streets, wards and various levels and constitutionally engage those in power that have turned us into servitude.

Hello Friends!


A nine-month-old baby died while three others sustained injuries after a three-storey building collapsed on Agege Motor Road, Mushin, Lagos State.
PUNCH Metro learnt that the building, located on 353 Agege Motor Road, Challenge Bus Stop, collapsed around 3pm on Tuesday. The baby’s parents were among the injured.

According to rescue officials, most of the occupants of the residential building were not at home when the incident occurred.
The building was said to have been built as a conventional apartment but two stories were added to it which weakened its foundation.

A police source at the scene said, “The building was built like ‘Face me I face you’ (single rooms apartment) behind a four-storey building in the same compound but the landlord added two floors which weakened its foundation.

“The building came crashing around 3pm and we all rushed there to rescue people. Three people were saved and have been taken to the hospital for treatment. Unfortunately, a baby of about nine months was found buried under the rubble.”

It was learnt that sympathizers were able to salvage some properties even before the arrival of the rescue officials.

The incident expectedly worsened the usual heavy traffic in the area.
The Director, Lagos State Fire Service, Razaq Fadipe, told our correspondent that rescue efforts had ended.

Hello Friends!

Bria Murphy, who has modeled for Maxim, the hair care product line Dark and Lovely, and most recently for rapper Wale’s new music video, Bad, has opened up about the pressure of the industry.

The 23-year-old daughter of actor and comedian Eddie Murphy, who aspires to become a Victoria's Secret model, revealed how some models turn to extreme dieting to remain thin.
'I've heard of people eating the cotton balls with the orange juice … they dip it in the orange juice and then they eat the cotton balls to help them feel full,' she told Good Morning America.

'The cotton's not doing anything. It's just dissolving. And it makes you think you're full, but you're not,' she added.

Bria, who actually plays a model in this year's television film, Rip the Runway, said 'it's a lot of pressure to be perfect.'
'Lots of girls get addicted to drugs and anorexia,' she remarked, adding that the pressure can take a toll.
