  The Presidency disclosed on Sunday that the intensified attacks of Boko Haram on Abuja is a calculated attempt by the sect to intimidate the Federal Government. The presidency said the insurgents cannot achieve this aim as the country is too blessed to be intimidated, adding that the culprits of the incessant attacks across the country will be brought to book. The Senior Special Assistant (SSA) to the President on Media and Public Affairs, Dr. Doyin Okupe, made this known when he paid a condolence visit to the New Telegraph newspaper following the loss of its Managing Editor, Northern Operations, Mr. Suleiman Bisalla, in last Wednesday's attack on EMAB Plaza Abuja.

Contrary to earlier reports, the United States of America declared on Friday, 27 June, 2014, that it does not know the where-about of the 219 schoolgirls abducted by Boko Haram in Chibok, Borno State, northeastern Nigeria. It could be recalled that no fewer 276 students of Government Girls Secondary School in Chibok, Borno State were abducted by members of Boko Haram on 14 April, 2014. Though some of the kidnapped schoolgirls reportedly managed to escape the insurgents after their abduction, 219 of them are still being held by the Islamists terror group. Few days after the girls' abduction, leader of Boko Haram, Abubakar Shekau, said, in a video posted on the internet, that he would not release the schoolgirls except for an exchange of some of 'his brethren' captured by the Nigerian soldiers. * Pentagon spokesman, John Kirby The Nigerian federal government led by President Goodluck Jonathan, supported by the international communities, had since stated they ar

Kano State Police Public Relations Officer, Musa Majiya There was pandemonium on Friday at about 2pm as the police discovered 13 explosive devices planted in a mosque in Nassarawa Local Government Area of Kano State. The incident occurred when Muslims were preparing to observe their Jumat prayers. The Kano State Police Public Relations Officer, Musa Majiya, told our correspondent on the phone that if the explosives had went off, it would have led to the death of no fewer than 130 people. He said the discovery of the bombs followed a tip-off by a boy who noticed strange movements by some persons suspected to be members of the Boko Haram sect. Majiya said after conducting a thorough search at the mosque, the police discovered the explosive devices. He, however, said one of the explosives detonated itself, but killed no one.

By Juliet Ebirim B ishop Odinaka Duruzor is a Nollywood actor, producer and businessman who has been in the industry long enough to know the pros and cons of the industry. As regards Nollywood, he has seen it all and believes there are things that stink and shouldn’t be, like homosexuality. In this interview with First Person, Bishop takes us through the industry, his own career and the little secrets of the make-believe world. F or how long have you been acting? I joined the industry in the late 90s. Actually, I have a platform, Divine Touch Productions, where I work as a production manager. I also act for other productions and even produce my own films. You have produced your own movie? Yes, we are still working on it. What has been your experience in Nollywood? Acting is not something you do just for money, it has to be something you’re passionate about. My friends used to tell me to act, that I would be good at it. But when I started acting, after a wh

Good afternoon. I feel greatly honored to be here today. I want to thank our governor, Chief Willie Obiano, for inviting me. As we mark the first one hundred days of his term, I would like to commend him for his vision and ambition in the areas of education, health and agriculture. And particularly security. Most of us know how, for a long time, Onitsha has been a security nightmare. If you are travelling, you do NOT want to be in Upper Iweka after 6 PM because of the fear of armed robbers. But today, because of our new governor’s initiative, people in Onitsha no longer live in fear. True freedom is to be able to live without fear. A relative told me that you can drop your mobile phone on the ground in Upper Iweka and come back hours later and still see it there, which was NOT the case in the past. And which is one of the best ways to measure leadership – by the testimony of the ordinary people. My sincere hope is that, under the leadership of Governor Obiano, Anam

Still on the late night explosion that rocked  Folawiyo axis of Creek Road, Apapa in Lagos on Wednesday...no one is certain about what really happened. Although the Director of the State Fire Service claimed it wasn’t a bomb blast but a gas explosion, the Nigerian police force rebuffed the claim, saying the explosion occurred after a tanker carrying fuel busted into flames...now, residents and some journalists are claiming otherwise. They are certain that what happened was a bomb blast and not a gas explosion or a fuel tanker busting into flames. A journalist - Fejiro Oliver, blogs at secretsreporters.blogspot.com, says it was a clear case of a suicide bomber and a female carried out the task.  He even released the picture of the alleged female suicide bomber. Also one Adaobi a staff of the company whose building was affected by the blast spoke to Vanguard saying, she still can’t come to terms with the fact that insurgency is now at her doorsteps.

Food for Thought : Instead of standing in hope, start walking in faith until you meet your destiny. God has a sense of humor. When I wrote 5 Reasons Why Many Christian Girls Remain Single, I never meant to follow it up with the same topic directed at men. But God had other ideas! Two days ago, I decided not to listen to music as I normally do in the morning but turned the radio on, hoping to hear a sermon. What I heard as I scanned for the right channel was a reading from the expositor study bible from Son life radio station here in Baton Rouge. The couple on the radio was reading from Genesis 24 – the story of how Eliezer (Abraham’s servant) took a wife for Isaac. That particular morning, the story gripped me in a way that I had hitherto experienced. I quickly jotted down what the message spoke to me and headed out to work. Later that day, I read the story of Eliezer again. This time, the reasons why many Christian men remain single became unequivocally clear. He i

 Queen Nwokoye Nollywood actress, Queen Nwokoye, has disclosed that one of the challenges facing the make-belief industry is lack of proper indigenous movie channels, especially the Igbo movies. She explained that the movie channels complained that Nollywood does not have content and as such, she was happy when the movie ‘Ada Mbano,’ was shot, which helps to show that the industry was working towards a better direction in telling the story the Nigerian way. Queen also express dissatisfaction over the way awards are been given out without even recognizing those in the indigenous movie especially the Igbos. Thereby, suggesting that awards should be created for people in that sector of the big screen. The screen diva also explained that people who base abroad keep asking for Igbo movies and as such, all hands needs to be on deck so that the vision could be achieved and more appreciated

A Texas woman who seriously injured her son and then tried to repair the injury with superglue pleaded guilty and was sentenced Thursday to two years in prison. *Jennifer Vargas, 34 tore her son’s genitals Jennifer Vargas, 34, was arrested last fall by the FBI and charged with assault after she admitted to yanking her 6-year-old son’s genitals out of anger. The sudden pull tore a 1.6-inch laceration in the boy’s scrotum. Vargas then cleaned the wound with alcohol before trying to seal the gaping hole with superglue, according to KENS. “She applied superglue to the [boy's] scrotum until the bleeding stopped, stuffed his underwear with paper towels, and then told him to go to bed,” a criminal complaint affidavit said. “Vargas did not seek any type of medical treatment for the child.” The boy only received medical attention after his father — an enlisted man at Joint Base San Antonio-Fort Sam Houston, where the family lived — came home to find his son crying.

•Shekau issuing threat in a video Drama ensued at the ongoing National Conference on Wednesday 25 June when information about plans by Boko Haram to burn down 50 communities in Borno State was raised and discussed by the delegates. The delegates twice on Wednesday, and for the first time since the National Conference was inaugurated on March 17, held closed-door sessions to discuss issues bordering on national security. Although journalists were not allowed to be part of the sessions, our correspondent gathered that it was revealed through intelligence report that the Islamic sect was planning on attacking 50 communities in Borno State. A retired general and Confab delegate said in fighting war against a group that exists in splinters, a group whose membership exists principally in the imaginations, would require extreme intelligent gathering and implementation without any attempt at politicking with facts. Delegates however agreed that to tackle Boko Haram there was a
