Check out list of Women who are more powerful than Pres. Goodluck Jonathan
Since inception, President Goodluck Jonathan’s administration has been accused of impunity, usually caused by decisions and actions of the President, including those of his ministers and close associates.
Most of the glaring cases of abuse of power including reckless spending of taxpayers’ money have been carried out by the women in Jonathan’s cabinet. These women have proven to be more powerful than the number one citizen of Nigeria because despite public outcries that greet some of their decisions, they go scot-free.

Common man In Nigeria is already living in hell; he cannot lose anything more than this hell.” - Sule Lamido
“Nigeria will not break. It is too weak to break. Who will break it? The ordinary person in Jigawa or the ordinary person in Sokoto or the ordinary person in Bayelsa? Is it the Ibo vulcaniser or the Yoruba woman that is selling kerosene by the roadside or the Okada man in Delta? They don’t have the capacity to unite because they are burdened by poverty. We have taken away from them their dignity, their self esteem, their pride and self worth so that they cannot even organise. Up there, we (elite) unite, we sing and so we will never allow Nigeria to break because once it breaks, we will lose.
But the common man loses nothing. What is he losing? He is already living in hell; he cannot lose anything more than this hell.”
––Says Sule Lamido, Governor of Jigawa State

Road Accidents Claim More Lives Than HIV/AIDS
Road traffic accidents claim more lives than HIV/AIDS in the society and must be reduced through collective responsibility of members of the public.
The Corps Commander of the Traffic Compliance and Enforcement Corps (TRACE) in Ogun State, Ayodele Sangofadeji made this revelation while inducting new members of TRACE Mayors in Sagamu, Ogun state.
Commander Sangofadeji while inducting new members said being a member of this group would avail them the opportunity to discharge their assisting roles in saving lives on the roads under the confine of the law without any fear.
“TRACE Mayor was established in 2007 through an amendment of TRACE law by the House of Assembly to manage traffic problems and educate road users in the state with regular TRACERS”, he said.

More than 7 foods that age you faster than your age!
In his book, The Antioxidant Prescription, Dr. Bryce Wylde addresses what science has discovered to be the true underlying cause of disease: free radicals. Avoid the damage by keeping these 10 foods and ingredients out of your diet.
1. Fast Food
You don’t need me to go into more detail about fast foods. Avoid ’em
2. Hydrogenated Fats
As we all know by now, these fats must be avoided because they cause heart disease. They’ve been used for years in snack foods, bakery items and margarine. Avoid buying cookies, crackers, baked goods or anything else that has hydrogenated oil or trans-fats on the ingredients list.
3. Olestra
Olestra is a synthetic fat used to make non-fat potato chips and other snacks. You’d think, with all the bad rap fat has garnered, a non-fat fat would be great. But Olestra has been shown to bind with fat-soluble vitamins A, E, D and K and carotenoids—our invaluable antioxidant nutrients—and to eliminate them from the system.

German spy service plans more online surveillance, injects 100M Euro: Report
Germany's foreign intelligence service plans a major expansion of Internet surveillance despite deep unease over revelations of US online spying, Der Spiegel news weekly reported Sunday.

The report came ahead of a state visit to Berlin by US President Barack Obama during which the German government has pledged to take up the controversy over the US phone and Internet surveillance programmes.
Spiegel said the BND aimed to monitor international data traffic "as closely as possible", noting that it currently kept tabs on about five percent of emails, Internet calls and online chats while German law allowed up to 20 percent.

Living with fumes of death: More Nigerians dying from inhaling generator fumes
ARUKAINO UMUKORO writes that more Nigerians are dying from inhaling generator fumes even as the country’s energy sector is comatose
In the still of the night, it sneaked in quietly and lingered dangerously for hours. With every breath intake, the deadly gas known as carbon monoxide, found in fumes from generators as well as in car exhausts, sucked lives out of its hapless victims who were fast asleep. This was what happened on May 28, when Mrs. Chinyere Celestine, and four of her children were found dead in their home off Goodnews Street, in Azikoro suburb, Yenagoa, Bayelsa State.
They were said to have died in their sleep that night, while the generator was still on.
The father of the children and husband of Chinyere, identified as Celestine, who was said to be in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, when the tragedy occurred, had called a neighbour when he could not reach his wife on telephone the next day. After several attempts to wake the victims, the neighbour raised the alarm that compelled other neighbours to force the door open. They found the victims’ lifeless bodies.

After Saying Abacha Never Stole, Buhari Embarrassed as More Abacha Loot is Uncovered
Former military Head of State, Muhammadu Buhari, who served Abacha as Executive Chairman of the Petroleum Trust Fund (PTF) has come under some embarrassment over his comments in 2008 that Abacha never stole as new Abacha loot has been traced.
Buhari, in 2007, described the allegations of looting against Abacha as “baseless”, because according to him, “ten years after Abacha, those allegations remain unproven because of lack of facts”.
However, fresh facts emerged that the previous estimate of what Abacha stole which stood at $5 Billion may be wrong.
