Many Nigerians did not believe the existence of Illuminati in Nigeria and many believe it only exit in Nigerian Music Industry. But here is another hint: A few weeks ago Chelsea star, John Mikel ventured into the music business with his younger brother Patrick Obi and launched a record label "MMM" (Matured Money Minds). Few days ago a photo surfaced showing Mikel doing the Illuminati hand sign with a big smile on his face.
The leakage of the report of the Mallam Nuhu Ribadu-led committee that probed oil and gas transactions covering 2002 to 2012 and which uncovered widespread corruption and abuse of processes, is meant to embarrass the government. |

President Goodluck Jonathan on Friday dismissed fears of imminent food scarcity in the country in the aftermath of the recent flood disaster in some states.
Addressing a delegation led by Vice-President Namadi Sambo and Minister of State for Federal Capital Territory, Ms. Jumoke Akinjide, which came to pay him Sallah homage at the State House, Abuja, Jonathan said Nigeria has enough grains in its strategic reserves to take care of any shortfall in food supply.
Jonathan castigated “selfish persons” who had been reportedly hoarding foodstuff in anticipation of food scarcity, saying his administration would protect Nigerians from such.
It was a harrowing experience for thousands of motorists, commuters and other road users on Friday as a fuel tanker crashed at Berger on Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.
The tanker’s crash brought traffic inward and outward Lagos to a standstill for some hours as the police, Federal Road Safety Commission and Lagos State Traffic Management Agency battled to clear the expressway and adjoining roads.
Traffic officials had to divert vehicles away from the tanker as it was spilling its fuel contents.
Many road users, including those travelling outside Lagos for the Sallah, were trapped for hours in the traffic.
More details later.
Niyi Akinnaso is saying nothing but the truth. Moreover, neither the Action Congress of Nigeria nor the Peoples Democratic Party has any moral justification to aspire to rule in Ondo State because their men ruled the state at separate times and failed to perform. Just as it happened in Edo State, Olusegun Mimiko’s victory confirms once again that truth is still alive.
