Day Diezani, Zainab Maina, others got inducted into hall of fame

In recognition of the important role of women in the society, 17 women were recently inducted into this year’s class of MMS Plus’ Woman of the Fortune Hall of Fame. The women among whom were two serving ministers, were dubbed women of substance. This event, which took place in Lagos was organised by Kings Communications Limited, Publishers of MMS Plus Magazine, in collaboration with Federal Ministry of Women Affairs and Social Development. The award, the second in the series had Ambassador Kema Chikwe as the chairperson of the governing council of MMS Plus Woman of Fortune Hall of Fame.

Among the recipients were Mrs. Diezani Allison- Madueke, Minister for Petroleum and Natural Resources; Hajiya Zainab Maina, Minister of Women Affairs and Social Development and Mrs. Sally Uwechue-Mbanefo.

Last year also, 17 women including First Lady of Cross River State, Obioma-Liyel Imoke, Dr Kema Chikwe, former Director General, Bureau of Public Enterprise, Mrs. Bolanle Onagoruwa; Former Director General, NIMASA, Mrs. Mfon Usoro among others were honoured.

MMS Plus’ Women of Fortune Hall of Fame is a conscious assemblage of role models who are embodiment of creativity, hard work, professionalism and integrity to help build capacity in different sectors of the economy.

The theme of this year’s induction ceremony into the hall of fame is “Appreciating the strength in womanhood,” which is a reflection of the importance and relevance of the female folk in the society. “This is one fact that President Goodluck Jonathan has elevated to a position of the national priority by the 35 per cent affirmative action on appointive and elective positions for women in his administration,” said Mr. Kingsley Anaroke, Chief Executive Officer of Kings Communication. He said the president had set an unprecedented record, ably engineered by the Federal Ministry of Women Affairs and Social Development.
He also noted that the idea of women being  builders and good value proponents had it roots in the Holy Bible. “The Ministry of Jesus Christ on earth was essentially made successful by women. As change agents, women who had and still have opportunities in both political and economical positions have given us the reason to believe that they could make better leaders and managers, aside from running homes, if given opportunity.”

Mr. Anaroke however regretted the mentorship gap among women, saying that only a few women did mentorship in their cocoons and associations. “How many of the elected or appointed women have a mentorship programme to groom the younger generation of women to drive their vision? This is one challenge before the Federal Ministry of Women Affairs”

Chairman of the occasion, Engr. Greg Ogbeifun recognised the complexity of the role of women in the society. He said: “You can’t really define the role of women in the society. Women have veritable element of existence to mankind. Women have proven to be very dependable to sustain every passage of life even in difficult situation. It is high time we expected to see women governors come on board to help contribute to the country’s development. Women are less corrupt.”

The Minister of Women Affairs, Hajia Zainab Maina, through her representative, Mrs. Mary Isong, applauded women in their role in nation building and urged the Federal government to allow women to be part of national developing.

Also, in his goodwill message, the Minister of Transport, Senator Idris Umar acknowledged  women as strong, mothers, professionals, yet they contributed their quotas to the society.

EFCC Arrests Delta State Auditor General For Local Government Over Falsification of Documents

For alleged refusal to go on retirement after reaching and passing the mandatory 35 years of service as well as falsification of documents, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) South-East Zone, on Thursday arrested Ms. Brown Mary Njokanma, the Delta state auditor general for local governments.
A source in the EFCC Enugu zonal office who pleaded for anonymity told SaharaReporters that Ms. Njokanma was arrested following a petition against her, but that she was later granted bail.

“We told her clearly that she was still in our hook and we shall get back to her because the evidence brought forward by the petitioner against her are overwhelming. A woman who came to service with level four and through the service went to school and came back and rose to that position [should not] deliberately refuse to retire,” the source said.

“With available evidence and records with us shows that the woman was actually employed in 1973 in the defunct Midwestern state. Our findings have also shown that the Bendel Development and Planning Authority where she first got her employment in 1973 [had] been in existence since 1960 in the defunct Midwestern state,” the source added.
The petition was written by a n
non-governmental organization called Excellent World Foundation, and entitled “Fraudulent and Illegal Collection of Salaries By Mrs M. Brown Njokanma, Auditor General, Local Government, Delta State.”  Signed by its executive director, Mr. Michael Enahoro Michael, and obtained by Sahara Reporters, it accused the supposedly retired auditor general of flouting civil service rules and falsification of documents to perpetually remain in office although her tenure had elapsed.  

The petition also accused Ms. Njokanma of fraudulently and illegally collecting salaries and entitlements when she ought to have retired in 2008 according to service rules, and appealed to the anti-graft agency to compel her to proceed on retirement as well as order her to refund all the salaries collected illegally from the coffers of Delta State.

The petition underlined Ms. Njokanma’s date of employment in the civil service in November 1973 under the Midwestern state, albeit as Miss Mary Aizebioje, her maiden name. It asserted that Miss Mary Aizebioje was the same person as Ms. Brown Mary Njokanma.

Elements of the petition read as follows:... READ MORE

2Face’s Babymama, Sunmbo Ajaba Is Pregnant

One of the baby mamas of 2Face Idibia, Sunmbo Ajaba, is now pregnant. The recently married wife of a pastor, is now pregnant for her husband, David ‘Tunde Adeoye.

The couple married in 2013 in Lagos after a reported earlier secret wedding in South Africa. Pastor Adeoye is the General Overseer of Royal Christian Centre, Lagos.

Sunmbo had a relationship with 2Face before she married Pastor Adeoye. Their romance produced two children.

Kwara State Governor's Mistress Delivers Baby Boy

Authority sources within the government circle in Ilorin, Kwara State have revealed that the executive Governor of the State, Alhaji Abdulfatah Ahmed is once again a darling father of a baby boy, courtesy of his pretty mistress, Yinka Olanrewaju.

Our impeccable sources confirmed that the boy, who is said to be a split image of the Governor, was delivered on September 9 in the state capital, Ilorin.

The story of the pregnancy of Yinka and the romance with the Governor made the rounds early in July, but it was frontally denied by the media team of the governor.

“Now, the chicken has come home to roost, let them come out again and deny. It was as if the poor tot knew the kind of controversy surrounding his coming. So, he decided to share his father’s image, it was as if ‘megida’, Governor Ahmed, vomited him,” our source disclosed to us.

The source revealed that Abdulfattah has accepted full responsibility and everybody is happy now.

However, while Yinka, the mother of the boy and lover boy governor are excited, the story might be different with the First Lady of the state, Omolewa who reportedly relocated abroad and now visits the state house occasionally from her base abroad.

“She was around about a month ago; she stayed for about one week before she travelled back.

“The woman is really nice; her gentle disposition to life cannot allow her cope with the kind of environment she found herself in government house.

“She is a born again Christian with a very strong passion for the less privileged and the low level women, hence her Leah Foundation, which has endeared her more to the rural women unlike the previous dispensation,” said a source.

Omolewa was said to have finally made up her mind to leave the turbulent life in the state house sometime in June when she got wind of the pregnancy of Yinka, who is the daughter of an influential Ilorin-based business mogul, the late Alhaji Oseni Olanrewaju, even while she was battling to conceive herself.

“This issue of Yinka was not the first she had to contend with, though she’s not the man’s first wife, the fact remains that the Governor gave her his words that no other woman will come in between them again and Omolewa trusted him absolutely, not minding his reputation as a lady’s man,” said a source.

Late last year, the issue of one Igbo lady, Ciphering was at the front burner, Omolewa never believed her husband was sleeping with this young girl, whose mother was a cook at the press centre, but a source told us their relationship dated back to the girl’s secondary school days at St. Anthony College, a school she left in 2004.

“When Ciphering became pregnant for the governor last year, it was real hell and the storm which occasioned the pregnancy only abated when mother and child relocated abroad,” our source added.

Kim Kardashian’s Younger Sister Kendall Jenner Offered Multi-Million Dollar Porn Deal

Kendall Jenner has been offered $1.8 million to star in a porn film.The ‘Keeping Up with the Kardashians‘ star, who celebrated her 18th birthday on Sunday (03.11.13), is being inundated with offers from X-rated companies to bare all on camera now that she is the legal age.

One U.S. based company told gossip website TMZ.com that it would pay the gorgeous model, whose older half-sister Kim Kardashian shot to fame after her sex-tape with R&B singer Ray J was leaked in 2007, $1.8 million.

Kendall, who has often spoken of her desire to become a Victoria’s Secret Angel, is well known as the ”shy” member of her family so it is unlikely she will entertain the offers.

The brunette beauty, whose parents Kris and Bruce Jenner recently announced they had split after 22 years of marriage, celebrated her birthday with a breakfast of Krispy Kreme doughnuts and her family were also quick to send her their best wishes via Instagram.

Kim, 33, wrote: ”Happy 18th Birthday to the sweetest girl I know @kendalljenner I hope your adult years are filled with happiness & so much love”
Khloe Kardashian, 29, posted: ”Happy birthday Kendall!!!!! 18 years ago my life was changed forever because of you! The joy and peace you bring to so many lives are just a few of the rare gifts your spirit possess. I couldn’t be prouder of the woman you are becoming. Happy birthday to my best friend, my roommate, my puppy sister, my heart. Sisters by blood, best friends by choice.”

Kris also posted a photo of Kendall as a baby with the caption: ”Happy Birthday to one of the most amazing joys of my life!!! I will never forget how blessed we were the day you were born and I thank God for you every single day!!!! I love you with all of my heart @kendalljenner You are truly a gift.”

Michelle Obama Responds to Kanye West’s Recent Comments

Kanye West recently spoke to Ryan Seacrest about a number of things. Here’s one of the things he said.


“There’s no way Kim Kardashian shouldn’t be on the cover of Vogue. She’s like the most intriguing woman right now. She’s got Barbara Walters calling her like everyday … and collectively we’re the most influential with clothing. No one is looking at what [President] Obama is wearing. Michelle Obama cannot Instagram a [bikini] pic like what my girl Instagrammed the other day … so it’s to say when we are there and [editor-in-chief of French Vogue] Carine Roitfeld supports my girl, that’s a breakthrough … there’s a wall of classism that we are breaking through.”

I can only imagine this is what Michelle Obama had to say in response.

Dear Kanye,

Hi, it’s Michelle. Michelle Obama, Barack’s wife. Barack Obama, the President of the United States of America.

That makes me the First Lady of the United States of America. Me = Michelle Obama.

I hope all is well.

You know, Kanye, I woke up this morning. In the White House. And one of my aides told me she had something to show me. Something that would make me laugh. A “cute” thing, if you will.

It was a series of quotes, Kanye. About my husband and me. About my Vogue magazine cover. And fashion. And classism.

They were your quotes. You were the cute thing, Kanye. And my aide was right. It did make me laugh. Oh, what a hearty White House laugh it was.

Keep my name out your mouth, ya heard.

Tell me, Kanye, what’s your goal with this? Why us? Are you still mad about my husband calling you a jackass a few times? Is that why you’re focusing on me instead of on all the other women who have been on the cover of Vogue?
That’s what this is all about, isn’t it? You’re out here all mad simply because we’re stylin’ on you? I know Barack never did apologize for the name-calling, because you know how you men are with your stubbornness.
But it’s more than that. It’s bigger than fashion. To you, this has become a couple vs. couple thing.

I once overheard some of our summer interns talking about you — about how mad you get when you’re compared to other rappers, because your peers are Jesus and Jobs and Walt Disney. I heard it and actually respected that. It shows you have some drive to be a great man. You should fight to get your respect. I see my husband, the President of the Free World, get disrespected every day. And it tears me apart.

So you have to understand where I’m coming from when I say it’s laughable for my 21-year marriage to be mentioned on the same website as your thing with Kim.

Imagine if someone compared you to Papoose, Kanye. Well, you’re Barack’s Papoose. And yes, Kim is my Remy Ma.

My husband’s not moving our family out the country so you can’t see where we stay. Because he runs the country, you see.

And, again, we live in the White House. Very visible.

Look, Kanye, I’m a fan. You had me the second you brought along Uncle Charlie Wilson, and there’s no turning back. I don’t think you’re crazy at all, and in fact fully think you’re saying things that other people are scared to articulate. And, of course, Chicago will always bring us together.

Knowing that, never think that I’m not from Chicago for one second. Barack may be from Hawaii, but I will always be from that 312.

As a woman who loves fashion but never sought to be an iconic figure of some sort, I understand where you’re coming from. And your frustrations. You’re both deeply embedded in fashion, you and Kim, and daring to match, with the man skirts and silly string bikinis. I hear you even have a little pop-up store next to hers that sells nice Confederate flags.

And there’s me, a semi-conservative dresser with my fashion not at the center of my life, and somehow I still ended up on the Vogue cover. And, to make matters worse, I didn’t even ask.

They came to me. And get this, I actually had to think about it.

But next time, Kanye, if we can agree to squash this, I will decline and tell them to ask Kim. Will that make you happy? Will that end classism? Will the inclusion of your born-rich future wife break down the walls that my trailblazing old-ladyness seeks to build up? Just let me know.

Because, at the end of the day, who really needs to be on the cover of Vogue for a third time?

In the meantime, there’s always Terry Richardson.

Jackass.

Send my love to Kim and baby Nori.
—Michelle

Father Turns Daughter Into Sex Slave - 5 Years Of Torture

Wale Akanusi, aged 50, who turned his daughter to a sex slave for five years, was arraigned yesterday before an Apapa Magistrates’ Court in Lagos, southwest Nigeria.

Now the girl is 17.The man began to defile his daughter when she was 12. The victim revealed herself how he turned her into a long-lasting sex slavery.

Akanusi impregnated the girl three times and aborted the pregnancies to cover up his act.

Her tortures ended early this year when she was rescued by the Lagos State Government.

The victim said she suffered the fate after her mother left her father and got married to another man. According to the girl, after this Akanusi relied on her for his sexual satisfaction which she could not resist because of fear.

He threatened to kill her if she told anybody about his actions.

As the victim grew older, she realized what was happening to her and pluck up all her courage to report the matter to the police.

Akanusi is facing a two-count charge of defilement by sleeping with the victim and killing of unborn babies. When he was arraigned, his plea was not taken.
The matter was adjourned till 27 November, 2013 for trial.

Like seriously, all these recent cases of rape is becoming alarming. Children should really educated on these, they should know how to react when such attitudes are shown towards them, they should also be taught that noone can kill them because i see they always tell these children "i will kill you if you tell anybody".

47-Year-Old Church Choir Director Rapes 9-year-Old Girl During Sunday School

A volunteer youth minister and church choir director has been arrested after allegations he repeatedly sexually abused a girl during Sunday school starting when she was 9.

According to reports, 47-year-old William Richardson was caught and arrested after the girl, now 11, told a staff member at her school that he had molested her over a three-year period at the First Baptist Church of Mango, Florida.

The suspect reportedly first molested the girl when she was between 9 and 10.

Nita Allred, the church's Youth Ministries Director, is shocked by the allegations.
"How can it be going on that long and we not know about it," Allred said "Somebody would have said something, but nobody said anything."

Vest Dickerson, wife of the church's pastor, says all the congregation can do at this time is pray.

"I have to trust in God to see us through," Dickerson told the station.

Increased cases of rape. So many Pedophiles. 

Halloween Bash: Supermodel Heidi Klum turns into a wrinkled old lady

Halloween enthusiast Heidi Klum transformed into a wrinkled old lady thanks to an Oscar-winning make-up team for her 14th annual Halloween bash on Thursday.

The 40-year-old supermodel dressed geriatric by donning pearls, a white wig, a skirt-suit costume, and a cane.

Heidi's toned pins, arms, and face were literally coated in liver spots and blue spider veins.

Time to moisturize! Ironically, most aging models spend a fortune in search of the latest fountain of youth.

Heidi used to dazzle her parties alongside ex-husband Seal, but now opts not to parade her bodyguard-turned-boyfriend Martin Kristen.

Earlier this month, the former Victoria's Secret Angel shared a tender cheek-kiss with the 50-year-old singer at their daughter Lou's fourth birthday in Malibu.

They are also parents to nine-year-old daughter Leni and sons Henry, 8, and Johan, 7.

Klum's Truly Scrumptious holiday collection for Babies 'R' Us is available in stores now.

'I'd rather stay home than go out in an uninspired costume,' Heidi told Parade.com this month.

'I start thinking of ideas months before Halloween, and I have an amazing team who makes the impossible possible. I don't really have a system for picking my costume each year, they kind of just come to me. It's definitely not a last-minute decision. It takes months of preparation.'

The statuesque beauty expects the same dedication from her A-list patrons saying, 'I want people to strive to have a better costume than me. I want my guests to really wow me!'

The German stunner shared the dedicated, lengthy process behind her old-age makeover with her 1.9 million Twitter followers.

'Ok guys...here I go into the future,' she tweeted. 'Fun times!'

Heidi had a bald cap, varicose veins, wrinkly prosthetics, and a hunched spine applied by make-up maestros Bill Corso and Mike Marino.

This year, Klum's spooky party takes place at Marquee night club in New York.

Last Halloween, the America's Got Talent judge covered her face in hundreds of rhinestones and donned a bejeweled pharaoh headdress as Cleopatra.

The divorced mother-of-four also rocked a skinless Hellraiser look in 2011 and the Hindu goddess Kali back in 2008

Virgin school girl gang-raped to coma

Police operatives in Lagos have arrested three persons and declared one other wanted for allegedly gang raping a girl to a state of coma. The young girl, simply identified as Vivian, is battling with death in a private hospital in Ikorodu area of the state.

Crime Watch gathered that the 15-year-old secondary school girl had gone to collect lesson notes from her colleague, Tabiola.

Tabiola was alleged to have lured her to a place where three others were waiting to devour her virginity.

A police source told Crime Watch that as soon as Tabiola walked in with Vivian, the suspects locked her inside a room where they forcefully stripped her naked.
According to the senior police officer, the girl was gang raped and was abandoned unconscious in the pool of her own blood.

The police officer, who gave the names of the three suspects as Yusuf, Rasheed, Oyedepo said, “When it dawned on the suspects that the girl was unconscious, they abandoned her in the pool of her blood where she would be seen and fled from the community.  I believe that the evil guys did not expect the girl to survive.

“Anyway, as the case is, it will take the grace of God and good medical attention for the girl to survive and be normal again.  Her pelvic, according to doctor’s report, has been so battered.  She was badly injured and she lost too much blood. More so, the girl was a virgin and was forcefully deflowered.  I feel for her because she is so devastated and psychologically traumatised.”

Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) Ngozi Braide who confirmed the story told Crime Watch that the victim is a Secondary school girl.  “She was lured to the place where she was gang raped by four men.  She is presently recuperating in a private hospital.

Her condition was very bad as she was abandoned unconscious in the pool of her own blood.

“We have arrested three suspects and one other is still at large but we have declared man hunt for the fleeing suspect.”
She warned young girls to be wary of the male friends they keep as friends as some of them may be worse than beasts.  “Don’t visit your male friends alone and even when you go in company, don’t follow your male friends inside the house or a secluded areas,” she advised.
