Popular Yoruba Actress, Rachel Oluwole Arrested for Stealing Ex-Deputy Governor’s Wallet at a Party
A former Deputy Governor of Lagos State, Mr. Femi Pedro is embroiled in a face-off with his actress girlfriend, Yetunde Rachel Oluwole just as talebearers claim he has allegedly ordered a woman believed to be his wife detained by police for stealing from his wallet at a party. The former deputy governor in a swift reaction claimed it was a mistaken identity. ‘’That’s not me. It is not me. Get your facts right.
Pedro according to a reliable source had lent his silver colour Mercedes Benz 500 to his girlfriend as a prop on location of her movie currently shooting in Lagos.
The two-day shoot parading top acts- Antar Laniyan, Yomi Fash-Lanso, Liz Da Silva and Jaye Kuti among others was abruptly halted when the cast and crew were moving to shoot a drive scene with Pedro ‘ s Mercedes Benz 500 and the tyre burst in Maryland, Lagos. The tyre blow out which nearly led to a complete loss of the car and lives, was averted as the driver was able to keep the vehicle going straight. When the incident which caught many off guard was conveyed to Pedro, the former Deputy Governor pleading with State’s Assembly to restore his position after his exit by impeachment, in clear terms told his girlfriend, Yetunde Oluwole to go fix a brand new tyre or meet him at the Area F Police Station. “We were all shocked to the marrow that he could say that to the lady. Can you imagine if lives had been lost, a source who overheard his conversation with the actress revealed this to us

Why Nigerian Army Can’t Defeat Boko Haram – Uk High Commissioner
The outgoing British High Commissioner to Nigeria, Andrew Pocock, has said the problem of Boko Haram insurgency in North-east Nigeria is not something that can be resolved with the use of the army, the police or the security agencies only.
Speaking at a farewell interactive session with members of Kaduna chapter of the Nigeria Union of Journalists Correspondent Chapel in Kaduna on Monday, Mr. Pocock said: “We don’t look at the problem in the Northeast as purely a security problem. It is not something that can be resolved with the use of the army of the police or the security agencies only. It is not going to be solvable.
“There has to be three different things; the first is a properly articulated security efforts. The second is that, there has to be a different kind of politics in the Northeast, where state and Federal Government work together instead of against each other and where there is a much more common and agreed agenda about what needs to be done to correct many years of mis-governance and of poor policy in the North-east.
“The third dimension has to be a developmental and economic uplift agenda. Too many, particularly young people are not only without employment in the North-east but because of the insurgency are without any economic prospect whatsoever. No one can live without hope and indeed if the economic and the developmental aspect of these are not addressed, the opportunities for radicalisation are much greater. So, those three things have to work in tandem, the security instrument, politics and development/economic approach.”
He however stated that with the new government of President Muhammadu Buhari, people are looking to a chance to get out of the security situation in the North-east, adding that, in the overall, there is greater possibility of stability and economic success, economic recovery perhaps than they might have been before the election.
The High Commissioner said although the army had some successes in 2013, those efforts were not followed up and Boko Haram came surging back in 2014 and effectively controlled most of the North-eastern country in Borno State as well as Adamawa and Yobe.
“20, 000 people killed in a conflict is a very serious matter,” he said.
He said in the overall, there is greater possibility of stability and economic success, economic recovery perhaps than they might have been before the election.
“The British government has long been involved in training Nigerian soldiers to fight the very difficult anti-insurgency combat that they are faced with in the North-east,” he said. “We have done this with some success. There is a lot more that we can do. What we need is high level access to the new people that President Buhari is likely to appoint.”
45 ISIS fighters 'die after eating poisoned Ramadan meal in Iraq'
At least 45 ISIS militants have been killed after breaking their Ramadan fast with a poisoned meal, according to reports.
A total of 145 people are thought to have sat down for the 'iftar' meal at Mosul, Iraq, but only 100 walked away alive, according to reports out of the embattled city.
It is unclear whether the fanatics were deliberately poisoned or whether they suffered from food poisoning, a spokesman for the Kurdish Democratic Party said.
These reports from Iraqi media, which were seen by the Haaretz website, are not the first time ISIS militants have been known to be targeted by poisoned food.
Dozens of Islamic State soldiers allegedly died in similar circumstances in November when the Free Syrian Army rebel group sneaked into their camp - where 1,200 were supposedly stationed - posing as chefs and poisoned their lunches.
Sources inside the rebel group, which battles both ISIS and the Syrian government, claimed at least ten ISIS fighters died after eating the contaminated lunch.
The reports stemmed from the now-defunct Times of Iraq, and their reliability has been questioned since.
Images have emerged throughout Ramadan showing ISIS extremists sitting down to lavish meals while those living under its brutal regime starve.
Undercover footage from the terror group's adopted capital of Raqqa in Syria showed hundreds of young boys and burqa-clad women queuing for food and water in the blistering heat.
It was shared by anti-ISIS activists Raqqa Is Being Slaughtered Silently alongside the caption, 'the second day of Ramadan' - the holy month when Muslims do not eat or drink from dawn until the sun has set.
While they starve, the terror group's soldiers share pictures of themselves sitting down to a hearty meal of fried fish, pickles, green salad and white rice.
Other bizarre images show the fighters' automatic rifles resting on the carpet beside silver platters full of fresh fruit and shining cutlery wrapped in dainty napkins.
As well as images of barbarity and beheadings, Islamic State often boasts on social media about how the eight million people living under its brutal reign in the Middle East and north Africa are well provided for.
It shares images of roads being paved and street signs being fixed in an attempt to portray it can take care of a massive population.
Now in heartbreaking images the Islamic State PR machine would rather not be seen, the shockingly young children stand in line with empty buckets - waiting for food and water which may never come.
