We love the mix of prints and colours – the mix of tiny prints with large block print on a flared skirt. The adire tally print, Maki's signature design, was hand painted onto silk chiffon panels

BABY BORN WITH QURAN

 

Culled from PM News

Residents from various parts of Lagos have been coming to catch a glimpse of a baby allegedly born with a miniature Quran at 9, Oguntade Street, Shasha area of the state. (crowd at the residence where the baby was born)

Incidents like these are scientifically impossible, but residents of the area say it is true even though some of them confessed that they did not see the baby clutching the miniature Quran, the holy book of the Muslims. They were only told about it.

It took efforts for P.M.NEWS reporters to gain access into the one-room apartment of the baby’s parents as a result of the crowd that took over the place.

KAREN IGHO TWEETS ABOUT HER BOOBS

CUSTOM OFFICERS KILL CAR SMUGGLER

This happened an hour ago. A man trying to smuggle a Audi wagon car into Lagos was stopped by custom officers but he refused to stop. They chased him to Iyana Ipaja. When he got there he met a little traffic and decided to run out of the car. He was immediately shot dead by the custom officers. His body is currently lying on the express way now. 

I don't know if this is right, but i think they shouldn't have killed him. I think they should have shot him on the leg or something.

Do you think the best thing was to kill him? The Police are right now at the scene trying to tow the car away.

I tried to open the door but it was difficult so the man near me moved closer to me, I never suspected he wanted to rob me, tried to assist in opening the door. As I dropped from the cab, I discovered that I have been robbed so I quickly raised alarm, they quickly threw down my money and sped off, so passers bye assisted in giving them a hot chase with Okada and apprehended the two of them”.

NIGERIAN GAYS SPEAK UP!

Culled from Vanguard

Litigants and witnesses at the Atani Chief Magistrate Court in Ogbaru local government area of Anambra State Wednesday witnessed a mild drama in the court premises as some people who claimed to be homosexuals nearly disrupted court proceedings in solidarity with two suspected homosexuals standing trial for allegedly committing same sex offence.

As early as 9 .00am, a large number of men with feminist outlook started gathering at the court premises to the surprise of the people around and it was only then that information filtered into the area that they came to identify with two of their members who were arrested by the police and charged to court for same sex violation related offense.

RIOT ON UNIVERSITY OF UYO CAMPUS

The Engineering students of the University of Uyo this afternoon went for a peaceful demonstration to the office of the school's Vice Chancellor, Prof Comfort Ekpo, after the VC mandated students to pay N100 for the school bus which used to be free. The school management had shifted most of the Science student courses to the school's permanent site which is about 20 minutes drive from the main campus, and then made the shuttle N100. That means students will have to pay N200 to and fro everyday to the permanent campus for most of their lectures.

This was what the students were protesting this afternoon when things went crazy. The peaceful protest turned violent after security officials at the V.C's office tried to stop the students from gaining access to the Vice Chancellor.

The students allegedly retaliated by throwing stones at the security officials, who then called for police back-up which led to the riot. The police arrived the scene and aggravated the situation by firing shots at the students, killing at least one student. Some say two. Some say three.

Angry students now proceeded to burn down the VC's office, the exams and records building, and a security office. Students have been evacuated from the hostel, and the school has been shut down indefinitely.

THE BOKO HARAM CRISIS: 'KILLING PEOPLE WITHOUT ASKING WHO THEY ARE'-

Benedicte Kurzen for The New York Times

Nigerians gathered to register as refugees in Bosso, Niger. Some said the Nigerian Army had been killing civilians in its battle against insurgents. 

BOSSO, Niger — For the soldiers, the young men’s long, flowing robes — the traditional garb of Muslim West Africa — were enough to establish guilt, the refugees said.

Nigerians Flee What They Call Indiscriminate Killings

Benedicte Kurzen for The New York Times

Laminou Lawan, a student, said Nigerian soldiers had been attacking young men just because they wore traditional robes. 

“As soon as they see you with clothing like this, they shoot,” said Abukar Ari, a Koranic teacher in a long robe who said he had fled across the border from Nigeria two weeks before. “They don’t ask any questions. I’ve seen them shoot people. Yes, I’ve seen them shoot.”

Other refugees in the registration lines of thousands who had fled Nigeria’s combat zone echoed these assertions, saying civilians were being killed there by soldiers unconcerned with the distinction between militants and innocents. Friends and neighbors were being shot, they said; young men were being rounded up at night; and citizens with the vertical ethnic scarring of the Kanuri, a group dominant in the Islamist militant group Boko Haram, were being taken away.

RAPE VICTIM GOES PUBLIC TO HELP CATCH MONSTER WHO BRUTALLY ATTACKED HER

A Chicago woman who was abducted in broad daylight and brutally raped in an alley stairwell has spoken out in a bid to apprehend her attacker.

A Chicago woman brutally raped on a stairwell in broad daylight has spoken out in a bid to catch her attacker.

Alexandra Clarke has bravely waived her right to anonymity in the hope the man — whom she thinks is a serial sex offender — will be busted.

The 22-year-old was listening to music on her iPhone as she waited for a bus at a busy intersection when he sat down beside her.

“He was sitting there for about 30 seconds to a minute. All of sudden he grabbed my throat, he said, “You are going to take a walk with me,” she told ABC.

A wanted poster issued by Chicago police describing Clarke’s attacker.

Shocked and confused — because it was 2 p.m. in the afternoon — he threatened to kill her as she was dragged into an alley and raped on a stairwell.

She tried to dial 911 but he tossed her cell phone away. He then stole her wallet and fled the scene.

“I didn’t scream, I didn’t yell, I didn’t try to run, I didn’t think of any of that. I was mostly in shock it was not only happening, but at 2 on a busy street,” Clarke added.

Dazed, she walked to a nearby hospital for treatment.

Her family has now put up a $5,000 reward for the brute’s capture and conviction.

“Our attention has been drawn to the libelous story posted on your website” CBN writes Premium Times on Sanusi Lamido Sanusi story

The Central Bank of Nigeria wrote to Premium Times concerning a story it published on the Central Bank Governor alleging adultery. The letter was dated 3rd of June but it appears the organisation is not open to publishing the CBN’s side of the story. The Bank also went ahead to attach relevant documents to the letter (find attached in this post) to prove their point but it was all futile as Premium Times chose not to publish their side of the story. This is the letter below unedited.

3^rd June, 2013

The Ag. Managing Editor,

Premium Times

Our attention has been drawn to the libelous story posted on your website on 2^nd June, 2013, on the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), and which has now been circulated by other online websites and blogging groups.

The post was full of fabrication and inaccuracies. Ordinarily this would have been best ignored. We are however constrained to write to you on account of the severe implications of the allegations for the integrity of the CBN, as an institution.

It is also important to reaffirm our long-standing commitment to due process and international best practice in the discharge of every aspect of our statutory mandate.

HE DOESN'T WANT A COURT WEDDING

I have been dating this guy and the whole wedding preparation is in full gear, but another side of him is showing now. The bone of contention here is that I want a court wedding and he saying we won't have one. Fine, what are your reasons? I asked him. And he said because he's human and if he impregnates someone else, that means the child won't have a right to his property.

In fact I was shocked and dumbfounded by his reason as I don't think he ever puts me into consideration. My family is richer than his so which property am I coming after? I'm so confused right now and i have been asking myself if he truly loves me.

Do i go ahead with our marriage plans or should i tell my parents to put a stop to our marriage planning preparations? Does he care about me? Will my agreeing not to have a court wedding put my future at stake as it seems I won't be a priority even as his wife? Please its very urgent. Wedding day approaching, need to make a decision fast. Please I don't want to make a mistake because I don't have much experience relationship wise.
