President Jonathan’s 11th private jet: prodigious squandering of taxpayers' money
The Presidency has made a proposal for an upfront deposit of N1.5billion for a brand new private jet, which will become the Presidential Air Fleet’s (PAF) 11th aircraft. This figure is contained in the details of the 2014 Appropriation Bill presented to the National Assembly by President Goodluck Jonathan through the Minister of Finance, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala. The Federal Government has budgeted another N1.52b for the maintenance of the 10 aircraft currently in the PAF in 2014 and it is now set to spend just about that amount on a new one. This prodigious squandering of taxpayers’ money is reckless and unacceptable.

Goodluck Jonathan was favourably disposed to mending fences with former
President Olusegun. The Special Adviser to the President on
Political Matters, Mr. Ahmed Gulak, made this known on Sunday just as
The PUNCH gathered that the feud between Jonathan and Obasanjo was
adding to the worries of the leadership of the Peoples Democratic
Party.
The sour relationship between the duo
became public knowledge in December 2013 when Obasanjo wrote a letter
titled “Before it is too late” to Jonathan. In the letter, he accused the
President of condoning corruption, training snipers, putting some
persons on a watch list and engaging in other acts capable of destroying
the country. Jonathan replied Obasanjo openly, saying his letter was designed to incite Nigerians against him.

Touching grass to grace Story: I Slept Under The Bridge & Didn't Eat For Days - Ramsey Nouah
“There were times when things got really bad for my mother and I and we had nothing. It was so bad that we didn’t have a home or shelter to live in. We had to stay in a store, a small store that could take only one mat. My mother and I squeezed ourselves in that mat. We didn’t even have a cup to drink water not to talk of a stove to cook. And my mother had to borrow, beg and stuff like that. These were moments when I was young. I didn’t realize the gravity of poverty we were in, I couldn’t tell. But it was a good orientation for me. It was moments that I thank God for making me pass through, because that has sustained and helped me even as an actor. The ability to deliver all the roles they give me because I have tasted both sides of the coin.” Ramsey said.
Jonathan’s body language encourages corruption: Sack Oduah now, Mr President
HAVING tried all the delay tricks in the book, President Goodluck Jonathan is now confronted with a choice: retain the Aviation Minister, Stella Oduah, or sack her. The President’s body language and vacillation demonstrate unmistakeably that he prefers to keep the controversial minister. This is a tragic error of judgment and confirms to the whole world what many Nigerians already know: that Jonathan’s body language encourages corruption.

Maheeda talks about her family, says 'I'm proud of my nu*de pictures + I am an orphan'
In an interview with Punch, Maheeda opens up about her background. She
talks about being an orphan and how she worked as a bar attendant,
waitress and a
prostitute just to survive.
Excerpt below
Background
My name is Caroline Sam but my stage name
is Maheeda. I am an orphan. I really did not know my mother and I never
met my father. My mother died and I was all alone. When I was 14, I
decided to hit the streets and I started fending for myself. I did a lot
of funny jobs. Worked as a bar attendant, waitress and was a
prostitute just to survive. Along the line I got pregnant. I am just a
very strong woman who is trying to make a difference. Maybe I started
off not too good, I have realised that whatever happens in your past,
you have to use it in a positive way that will benefit you and your
family.
Me and music
I have always loved music and attention. I
started about ten years ago. I don’t have any albums yet but I have
quite a number of singles. All I can say is that the way I want to do my
thing is not acceptable in Nigeria. It has been hard and it’s still
hard for me to achieve. Currently, I am in Nigeria to spend Christmas
and I am also seizing the opportunity to shoot a video for my single,
‘Naija bad girl’. Apart from music, I am also a model and acting is
another passion of mine.
Nu*de pictures
It is deliberate. I know what I am doing.
The pictures are not targeted at anything. It is all about attention
and there is no mistake about it. This business of music is called
showbusiness and I am convinced I am on the right track. I owe no
apologies. I just realised this way will be a faster hit than any other
way. The pictures are working for me.
Criticisms
In this life, everybody gets criticised
whether you do good or bad. I have read and heard so much about me that I
am now used to it. Thanks to them, they have helped me develop a thick
skin.
Relationship
I am married and my husband is Dutch.
What I am doing is not alien to him or his family and he understands. I
met him at a bar when he just came to Nigeria. We are happily married.
Even before we got married, he understood my kind of person. He was
aware of my vision. He has always been supportive. He just laughs
whenever he comes across any of my pictures. It’s in Africa that we
attach much importance to such things and consider it sacrilegious.
My daughter can’t do this
I am 31 and I had my daughter when I was
17. I do not think this is going to affect her in any way. If my mother
did something like this; there is no way it would have affected me. My
daughter is not even aware these nu*de pictures exist even though she has
seen pictures of me in bikini. She is not even allowed access to the
social media. Even if she gets to view them eventually, it’s not going
to mean anything to her because she has the European mentality. When my
daughter is 18, then she can decide what she wants. Currently, she is
under my care and I won’t let her do what I am doing.
Nu*de pictures and music
So far, it has worked and it’s still
working. As you can see, there’s so much attention on me. All of a
sudden, people want to listen to my old singles and are looking forward
to my debut album.
Friendship
I have quite a few of them. Don Jazzy is
my friend, Olamide and Phyno just to mention but a few. Gospel artistes?
No, but I became a born-again Christian and decided that I wanted to
continue with secular music. Whether people accept it or not, I am a
born-again Christian and that is why I describe my music as honest
music. I am not perfect but I’m just living my life in the best possible
way.
Style
I like to feel comfortable. When I dress,
I want to be me not caring what the next person thinks. I also like to
go to the gym to keep fit. When you are fit, clothes look fabulous on
you.

APC vs PDP: Nigeria in 2014 - Fact Versus Fiction - Written by Reno Omokri
Reno Omokri is Special Assistant (New Media) to President Jonathan. His piece below...
I was about to write this piece detailing the positive effects of the Transformation Agenda when I was confronted with a hypocrisy which could possibly pass for the mother of all hypocrisies.
On the 18th of December 2013 several newspapers carried the statement from the All Progressive Congress, APC. While the different papers gave their own slant to the story, I particularly liked the headline from a major newspaper which said "Jonathan Must Respond to Obasanjo - APC". Continue after the break.
