How does a plane full of people disappear without
any trace? The Malaysian Airlines flight MH307
that vanished off the coast of Vietnam two hours
after taking off at Kuala Lumpur airport with 239
people on board has still not been found and now
there are fears that the plane may have been
taken down by terrorists because nothing else
makes sense, the weather was great, the pilots
were experienced, the plane was new, there was
no distress call and now it's been discovered that
4 people on the flight traveled on passport stolen
in Thailand and the tickets they used were bought
through a Chinese airline.
One passport was
registered to an Italian and another to an
Austrian.
Malaysian security officials say they have footage
of 2 passengers traveling on those stolen
passports as they made their way through the
airport to the aircraft. They now are investigating
these men.
A major search has been launched for a Malaysian Airlines jet with 239 people on board after it lost contact flying from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing.
Airline officials admitted they were gravely concerned for the safety of the aircraft, which was carrying four Americans and seven Australians, as well as passengers from France and China.
Crying relatives of Chinese passengers on board the plane wept at Beijing airport as it became clear the jet had probably crashed.
An unconfirmed report on a flight tracking website said the aircraft had plunged 650ft and changed course shortly before all contact was lost.
The route would have taken flight MH370, a B777-200 aircraft, across the Malaysian mainland in a north-easterly direction and then across the Gulf of Thailand.
Those on board included two infants and 12 crew members, Malaysian Airlines said in a statement, adding it was working with all authorities in the region and search and rescue teams had been mobilized.
As well as the American and Australian passengers, the aircraft was carrying 153 Chinese, 38 Malaysians, 12 Indonesians and 32 people from France.
The aircraft had been due to land in Beijing at 6.30am local time but at 7.54am the airline issued a statement saying it had not landed and was officially missing.
Aviation experts said that if the report of the aircraft suddenly plunging was correct it could be due to a number of factors.
President Jonathan's spokesman Reuben Abati
has explained why late military dictator Gen. Sani
Abacha was given the controversial Centenary
Award, saying that the government was in no way
supporting corrupt practices...
"This (award) does not in any means
translate to supporting sharp practices or
corrupt practices. It is important to make
the clear distinction in this regard.
I think it is important to make the necessary
distinction here. The centenary award, like
every award, has its own criteria. That
centenary award was in relation to the
amalgamation, the national unity, the history
of Nigeria and the roles played by certain
individuals.
The centenary award was not a test of
sainthood. In giving the award to the former
Head of State, Gen. Abacha, the committee
in charge made it very clear that the award
in the category in which the former Head of
State appeared was awarded with regard to
the contributions of those individuals in
keeping Nigeria together." Continue...
You will find out that under that category,
there were largely former Heads of State,
persons who have at one time or the other
presided over Nigeria and under whose
watch, in spite of whatever challenges they
might have faced, helped to sustain the
unity of the country and helped to defend
the integrity and sovereignty of the country.
That was a specific criterion in this
particular category. Of course, every award
at all, be it for beauty or any other thing has
its own criteria.” Reuben Abati tells Punch
Kim and Kanye have decided to sign a prenup
even though Kanye didn't want to because he
loves her that much. Radaronline reports
Kim will get $1 million for every year she
stays married to the Yeezus singer.
The entire process for the prenup for Kim
and Kanye has been extremely easy, and
relatively drama free. Kanye didn’t even
think the couple needed a prenup, and was
ready to give Kim carte blanche to all of his
financial assets. Yes, he loves Kim that
much. There is a huge difference from
Kim’s prenup with Kris Humphries… the
preparation of their agreement went on for
several months. It was long and tedious.
Among the prenup details, for every year
Kim is married to Kanye, she will get $1
million, capped at $10 million, the title of
their Bel Air mansion will be in Kim’s name,
even though Kanye is footing a majority of
the bill, and the sex tape star will keep all
jewelry and gifts given to her by Kanye.
Money she earns from Keeping Up With The
Kardashian‘s, the Kardashian clothing line,
and promotional appearances, will be
considered her separate and sole income.
One of Kanye’s life insurance policies
valued at $20 million will name Kim as the
beneficiary, for life, even in the event of a
divorce.There are NO clauses in the
agreement concerning custody
arrangements of their daughter, North.
According to reports, Yeezus is worth $100
million, and Kim’s is worth $40 million.

13 students of Ogba Junior Grammah School,
Ogba, in Ojodu Lagos collapsed yesterday March
6th after inhaling an unidentified poisonous
fumes discharged from one of the cottage
factories in Ogba Shopping Arcade, Vanguard
reports.
This came four months after 25 of the
students of the same school collapsed after
inhaling an unidentified chemical waste
discharged into drainage by a Photo
Laboratory, situated in the Shopping Arcade.
When Vanguard visited the school, the
management and staff were wondering which
company would have discharged such hazardous
fumes this time around.
Also, our correspondent observed that parents of
the students raced to the scene to verify the
condition of their children. While those whose
children weren’t affected by the emission rushed
them back home, some were also sighted wailing
over the ugly incident.
Mr. Oladokun, the father of one of the victims,
who rushed to the scene immediately he heard of
the incident, said: “I was in the office when my
wife called me that my daughter, who is in JSS 3
was also affected.”
The incidents was said to have occurred at about
12:40 pm while the students were still in their
classes.
Vanguard gathered that the leak of the dangerous
gas was least expected as it enveloped the
premises making the victims unconscious.
Officials of the National Emergency management
Agency, NEMA and its Lagos state counterpart,
LASEMA and the Lagos State Environmental
Health Monitoring Unit, SEHMU arrived the scene
and rushed the unconscious victims to the Lagos
State University Teaching Hospital, LASUTH, Ikeja
for treatment.
Of the 13 affected students, one was a male while
the rest were females. Vanguard investigation
revealed that one of the students was in critical
condition and has been admitted at the Intensive
Care Unit.
Some of the affected students were: Tijani
Mariam, Subaidat Oladokun, Adebiyi Taiwo, Muiz
Rodiat, Ogunbami Omolade, Onaigbe Blessing,
Karimat Akiode, Rasak Gbolahan and Modupe
Idowu.
Vanguard learnt that although the company
responsible for discharging the chemical was yet
to be identified, the state government has shut
the school and the shopping complex indefinitely.

Chocolate City, who took an injunction against
him, ‘restraining him from recording, releasing or
distributing any musical works pending the

free to continue doing music and releasing his
materials while the case continues hearing in

One of UK's most prolific sham brides, Raquel
Neto Furtado De Andrade, 22, has been arrested
and sentenced to two years in prison after trying
to marry her fourth husband...a Nigerian.
According to the UK Daily Mail, Raquel, who had
already married three Nigerians to help give them
the right to stay in the UK was caught just
minutes before she could marry her fourth
husband.
Suspicious staff at the registry noticed she'd been
there previously to wed other men and used the
same wedding dress at each ceremony. And after
she was arrested, records showed she hadn't
even bothered to formally divorce previous
husbands before marrying a new one...for money.
The fourth groom, a 32-year-old Nigerian
(pictured above), was arrested with her and has
been deported. UK Immigration is now looking for
her three other husbands so they can be
deported too.
As for Rachel, she is now behind bars serving a
two-year sentence and will be deported to her
native Portugal on her release from prison.
The singer and his wife welcomed their third child
on Tuesday March 3rd. The couple already have
two kids. Big congrats to them...
The U.S. Department of Justice has frozen more
than $458 million in corruption proceeds hidden in
bank accounts around the world by former Military
dictator, Gen. Sani Abacha and his conspirators.
The complaint alleges that Abacha, his son
Mohammed, their associate Abubakar Atiku
Bagudu and others embezzled, misappropriated
and extorted billions from the government of
Nigeria and others.
The corrupt proceeds were then laundered through
the purchase of bonds backed by the United States
using U.S. financial institutions.
A civil forfeiture complaint unsealed yesterday in
the United States District Court in the District of
Columbia seeks recovery of more than $550
million in connection with “the largest kleptocracy
forfeiture action brought in the department’s
history.”
The restraint of funds announced yesterday
includes approximately $313 million in two bank
accounts in the Bailiwick of Jersey, $145 million in
two bank accounts in France, four investment
portfolios and three bank accounts in the United
Kingdom with an expected value of at least, $100
million.
Acting Assistant Attorney General Mythili Raman of
the Justice Department’s Criminal Division and
Assistant Director in Charge Valerie Parlave of the
FBI’s Washington Field Office made the
announcement.
“Gen. Abacha was one of the most notorious
kleptocrats in memory, who embezzled billions
from the people of Nigeria while millions lived in
poverty,” said Acting Assistant Attorney General
Raman.
“This is the largest civil forfeiture action to recover
the proceeds of foreign official corruption ever
brought by the department. Through our
Kleptocracy Initiative, we are seizing the assets of
foreign leaders who steal funds that properly
belong to the citizens they serve.
Today’s
(yesterday’s) action sends a clear message: we
are determined and equipped to confiscate the ill-
gotten riches of corrupt leaders who drain the
resources of their countries.
“We will not let the U.S. banking system be a tool
for dictators to hide their criminal proceeds,” said
Assistant Director in Charge Parlave.
“This action demonstrates the FBI’s ability to
combat international corruption and money
laundering by seizing the assets of those involved.
I want to thank the special agents, financial
analysts and prosecutors whose hard work over
the years resulted in today’s announcement.”
Gen. Abacha, who assumed office through a
military coup on November 17, 1993, died in office
on June 8, 1998.

The Rivers State Ministry of Health has confirmed
the release of funds for the continuous running of
the free health care programme of the state
government.
The State Commissioner for Health, Sampson
Parker made this known to newsmen in Port
Harcourt.
Parker said the state government released the sum
of one billion naira as an intervention fund to meet
the agitation of the health workers that went on
strike at the Braithwaite Memorial Specialist
Hospital, BMSH.

turbulent periods with our doctors going on strike

Former chairman of the All Progressive Grand
Alliance, APGA, Chief Victor Umeh, and his former
national secretary, Alhaji Sani Shinkafi, may be
jailed for contempt of court as the national
chairman of the party, Chief Maxi Okwu, had this
week served the duo with Form 48.
Addressing newsmen, yesterday, in his Nkpokolo
town, Achi, in Oji Local Government Area, Enugu
State, Okwu said Form 49 would be served on
them next week should they continue to parade
themselves as national leaders against the
January 15, 2014 judgement of the Federal High
court, Abuja, that enthroned his executive as the
authentic national leadership.
Besides, Okwu hinted that Chief Willie Obiano, who
was declared as governor- elect by the
Independent National Electoral Commission in the
last governorship election in Anambra State might
not be sworn-in on March 17 following a court
order that would this week be served on the state
chief judge till the determination of a substantive
suit on "who is the real governorship candidate"
still pending in court, was dispensed with.
"We are in a law-abiding society, we are not in a
jungle. Before the tenure interpretation of
Governor Peter Obi people assumed that it would
go the other way, so let us see what happens and
I will not prejudge it.
"The matter is squarely and squarely before the
court and the court will determine it based on its
merit. If there is a court order obtained by
Obidigbo which the Chief Judge of Anambra State
is a party in the suit along with Obiano himself,
myself and the APGA, the Chief Judge and all the
parties in the suit will obey.
In an interview with Yes! magazine this week, actor Chidi Mokeme explained why his wife, Jean Chinwe Olumba, who he married in 2012, lives in the US while he lives in Nigeria....
Well, when I met my wife, this was our default setting. Let me put it like that. Our default setting was that I live in Nigeria and my wife lives in America and then we started a relationship and decided to take the relationship further and decided we were going to be man and wife. So, having taken that decision and having crossed that level, the next thing is to find a way to ease into a location. Everybody knows that you don’t just pack your bag and move in one day. There are things that need to be sorted, relocation needs to be sorted. So, we are taking our time with it. But then again, by virtue of my job, I have a pretty much very flexible timing. I own my time, I decide when to work, when not to work. So, really, I can be with my wife anytime, every time I so desire and it makes it easy. If I work 9-5, then we will always have to wait for when someone was on leave the whole year round, if I want, just to be with my wife.
On Saturday March 1, Nobel laureate prof. Wole Soyinka said sharing the Centenary Award with late military dictator, Gen. Sani Abacha, is an insult. (See that here). One of his daughters, Gumsu Sani Abacha just lashed out at him on her Facebook page for making that statement...
