AMERICANS OUTRAGED AS PSY PERFORMS FOR OBAMA AT CHARITY CONCERT

President Barack Obama warmly greeted PSY at the White House Sunday night, despite the rapper's anti-American lyrics
You tube sensation, Gangnam style artiste PSY,  performed at a White House charity event on Sunday, and this has pissed off a lot of Americans. Why, you may ask. There is a video circulating the internet which showed the rapper at a concert back in 2004 singing an anti-American song titled 'Dear Americans' with the lyrics "kill those fucking Yankees who have been torturing Iraqi captives…kill them all slowly and painfully,' "Kill those f---ing Yankees who ordered them to torture ... Kill their daughters, mothers, daughters-in-law and fathers ... Kill them all slowly and painfully.” and smashing toy American tanks. 

 Psy apologized as soon as the news broke, claiming the concert was years ago and his words were a reaction to the Iraq war but Americans called for PSY to be removed from the lineup of artistes to perform at the annual 'Christmas in Washington' benefit at the White House. Instead, he not only performed but was also  personally greeted by the president on Sunday night.  Do you think it was wrong for the Obama administration to allow PSY perform infront of the President? 

See pics of PSY during the controversial performance back in 2004 after the cut...

OKONJO IWEALA'S MOTHER KIDNAPPED BY UNKNOWN GUNMEN

Professor Kanene Okonjo, mother of the Minister of Finance, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, has been kidnapped. She was abducted yesterday around 1.47pm at the gate of the palace of the traditional ruler of Ogwashi-Uku, Delta State, Prof. Chukwuka Okonjo, who is her husband, by a gang of heavily armed men. Her husband had travelled out of the town.

The kidnappers, numbering about 10, were said to be lurking around the palace until the woman and her maid came down to offer some drinks to workers at the gate. Eyewitness said as soon as the woman came down from the main building, towards the gate, the criminals also moved in from the gate to grab and push her into a waiting Golf Volkswagen car.

Her husband, Obi Chukwuka Okonjo, a retired professor of Economics, is the traditional ruler of Ogwashi-Uku. The kidnappers are yet to make contact with the family of their victim.
