Photos: FMC Doctors March to the street in Owerri over unpaid wages #BringBackOurMoney
One of the protesters said the residents haven't been paid September 2013 salary. The house officers who worked for 3 months received payment for just two months with so many deductions. They say this isn't fair considering the health risks they're subjected to on a daily basis and the fact that they're always far away from their families on call only to have their salaries cut in half.

Paedoaphile: Teacher who defiled minor claims one of them made passes at him
"One of them made advances at me. You know how children play with you in a funny way. This thing is beyond me.” he said
Mr Folarin, who has been arrested before for molesting children, said he believes he's under some demonic attack that pushes him to commit the act and so shouldn't be judged
"I have been doing this for a long time. I feel terribly bad each time I did it but I could not stop it. Why don’t you find a way of helping me. Is this meant to expose me? Some people should just think and reason with me. The person who has not sinned before should cast the first stone. If God did not forsake some people, I know he would not forsake me. I am a changed person now.”Continue...

The Bitter truth el-Rufai & Ribadu should tell the North
Anytime the likes of Prof. Ango Abdullahi, Dr Junaid Mohammed, Mallam Adamu Ciroma, Lamido of Adamawa, Mr. Anthony Sani or any of the members of the Arewa Consultative Forum or Northern Elders Forum speak on national issues, there are some things that are constant in their speeches: Arrogance, condescension, threats, etc. If the matter has to do with national resources, two critical “words” must be present in their speeches: “Sharing” and “allocation.”
That makes you wonder: Don’t these “elders” feel that they are insulting the North by their fixation on “sharing?” Don’t they feel they are insulting the North by portraying the region as incapable of taking care of itself? Don’t the younger generation feel ridiculed by this unenviable image foisted on them by these elders? Most times when these comments fly around, the lone dissenting voice you would hear is that of Col. Abubakar Umar (retd.), a former Governor of Kaduna State.

Niger Delta may cease to exist, Edwin Clark warns (Greedy Europeans and Americans ,sellout Nigeria leaders)
Greedy Europeans and Americans ,sellout Nigeria leaders!!This is for you!!
A National Conference delegate, Edwin Clark, has warned that unless something urgent is done to salvage the Niger Delta environment; the region might soon cease to exist.
“If we do not do something, one day, we will be wiped out, while the rest of the people will be enjoying the things from the area,” Mr. Clark warned.
“Our environment has been polluted. We sit on top of water in the Niger Delta, yet we do not have water to drink. When I was small, we used to put a calabash outside and fishes will jump in. Now, my people eat ice fish. There are no more farm lands, no fruits. We have lost everything in the Niger Delta.
What do you think?
Duty of African leaders is to clear all foreign militaries out off African soil & put an end to imperialism.
US imperialism has been conducting military operations in Nigeria since at least 1999. AFRICOM, officially established in 2007.
US and AFRICOM backed Ethiopia’s invasion of Somalia in 2006, destabilizing the nation’s government and leaving millions to starvet death. central Africa, the US and AFRICOM armed and financed proxies in Uganda and Rwanda, which proceeded to loot the Congo’s Coltan Gold and the Diamond.
2011, the US-NATO armed Alqueda terrorist insurgents in Libya responsible for toppling the last economically independent countries in Africa.The Libyan Jamahiriya under Chaiman M .Gaddafi nationalized oil wealth and provided Libyans with free healthcare, education, and housing.The Libyan Jamahiriya Chairman Muammar Gaddafi was a staunch supporter of African liberation movements.
US imperialism is the real terrorist for African people and the root of terrorism in Africa.
US-NATO backed terrorists in the campaign to destabilize Syria exposes US imperialism’s role in the proliferation of terrorism in Africa.
The vision of a liberated and decolonized Africa promoted by Kwame Nkrumah cannot occur if US imperialism is allowed to exist in Africa.
