FORMER PETROLEUM MINISTER, SHETTIMA MUNGUNO, KIDNAPPED

The former Minister of Mines and Power and also Petroleum Minister,  Shettima Ali Munguno has been kidnapped from  a mosque in Maiduguri. He was abducted by gunmen as he left the mosque after Jumat prayers today, in the Mafoni ward area of the city.

Witnesses say Dr shettima was whisked away by four young and well-armed men as he was leaving for his house in GRA Maiduguri. The hoodlums allegedly asked those with him to get out of the Peugeot station wagon and then went away with him.

The 92 year old elder statesman has been on the front burner calling for amnesty for the Boko Haram members. Dr Shettima Ali Monguno was one of the Borno elders who met with the President during his two day official visit to Borno and demanded for amnesty for the Boko Haram sect as well as calls for withdrawal of the Joint Task Force from the state.

KANYE WEST AND KIM KARDASHIAN SET TO WED!

Wow! Newly divorced Kim Kardashian and her baby daddy are set to walk down the aisle. The couple plan to tie the knot in Los Angeles immediately after the birth of their child, but according to the report by radaronline.com, they do not want any papparazi at the wedding. Read how Radaronline.com 

is reporting it

After months of will-they-or-won’t-they speculation, the couple is going to tie the knot in a lavish wedding in the Los Angeles area right after the birth of their child, an insider close to reality TV’s first family tells Radar exclusively. Kim is set to exchange “I do’s” wearing an “ethereal white wedding dress,” the source said, and wants a location “where they can hear the waves and be married under the moon and stars.

“Kim’s choice at the moment is a starlight ceremony in California’s Big Sur,” the insider added, noting that Kanye has signed off on all of the stipulations, as well as signing off on whichever wedding planner she chooses. But don’t think that Kim is going to be making all of the decisions about the wedding — or in this relationship. Kanye has made it completely clear to Kim that he does not want ANY media at the wedding and they will not sell their wedding photos for profit.

No media ko, no media ni. If they don't want any media there, why are they announcing the venue and other deatils. Why not just do it like Beyonce and Jay Z? No one knew they were getting married until they got married. Continue to read the report after the cut...

JIM IYKE'S MANAGER'S RESPONSE TO KENTURAH'S STATEMENT

Last week, Jim Iyke's ex-fiancee, Kenturah Hamilton, released a statement announcing her break-up with the actor basing her decision on Jim's immaturity and bad boy attitude, and that his 'unscripted' show was actually scripted (if you missed it, read it HERE).

Reacting to that statement, Jim Iyke’s media manager, Mitch Ngaman, had this to say on behalf of Jim Iyke;

"Just wanted to let you know we have decided not to react to Keturah’s statement for now…I’ll let you know when and if we decide to go ahead with it."

Sounds to me like they know she's right but need time to 'cook' up something to discredit her allegations. We they wait o.

JONATHAN READY TO FORGO SECOND TERM IF SENATE PASSES 6-YEAR SINGLE TERM LAW - PRESIDENCY

The Presidency on Wednesday said President Goodluck Jonathan will drop his ambition to run for second term in 2015 only if the Senate passed the president's proposal for a single non-renewable six-year tenure for President and State governors into law. Here's what the President’s Special Adviser on Political Matters, Dr. Ahmed Gulak, said;

“Nigerians will remember that it was President Jonathan that suggested an idea of a single term tenure from the beginning. So if the proposal becomes a law, the credit should go to the President. If it becomes a law and is enshrined in our constitution, the President and everybody will be bound by the provision of that law. Let us wait and see what happens. We are not seeing the move as a way of stopping President Jonathan from re-contesting in 2015. The law cannot be made because of one individual. When it takes effect, everybody will be bound by it.”

 The proposal by the Senate Committee on the Review of the Constitution had recommended non-renewable single six year tenure for the offices of President, Vice-President, governors and their deputies. The Senate panel’s recommendation however, disqualifies Jonathan and incumbent governors from benefitting from the new arrangement if the recommendation becomes law. If passed into law, Jonathan will not be eligible to contest the 2015 presidential election.

Rihanna's on-again-off-again, but currently off, ex boyfriend, Chris Brown, released a new song yesterday morning, titled “I Can’t Win”, in which he laments about being with a girl who’s in love with a bottle. It's kinda obvious he's talking about Riri.

Why you angry all the time?
Why you don’t wanna ride for me?
Girl we used to make love
When you called I would follow
Now the only thing you love is a bottle

OUCH! BILLBOARD MAGAZINE SAYS BEYONCE HAS NO CREATIVE TALENT AS SHE STEALS YET ANOTHER ARTIST'S CREATION

Beyonce really needs to stop this her 'stealing' habit. Billboard Magazine, which usually sing her praise, wrote a particularly scathing piece about Beyonce’s shameless thievery today. Billboard magazine wrote;

"Any artist, including Beyoncé, can wear whatever another artist wore, but that multiplicity gets suspicious and easily pegged as stealing. But more bothersome than Bey’s inspiration-turned-imitation act – and less subtle as her career progresses – is that she’s playing off the risks that other artists have been brave enough to take (and appropriately praised for) instead of challenging herself and taken some herself. Perhaps visual and dance concepts don’t come as naturally to her as vocal prowess, but I’m doubtful that she can recruit those for which it does. Even as a vocal performer, Beyonce is more of a canvas than a creator."
