The three-man committee which is chaired by Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo has the

| Nigerian Woman Marries Lesbian Partner In US Posted: 22 Apr 2017 01:31 AM PDT | A Nigerian lesbian woman, 53yrs old Moji Solar-Percy, walked down the aisle with her American 'wife' on Tuesday in the US, celebrating the freedom that she would not have had in Nigeria.
Solar-Percy, a real estate mogul, runs a company, Solar Worldwide Realty Inc. in Staten Island, New York. She gushed about her love for the woman, with whom she probably would have been arrested if the wedding had taken place in Nigeria.
Solar-Percy, who describes herself as a mother, realtor, LGBT activist, speaker, coach and host on her Facebook page, did not reveal the name of her partner.
She wrote on her Facebook wall;
"Today I woke up in a cold sweat. I was drenched with fear, for a moment. I forgot where I was. I ask you all to close your eyes, imagine what would have happened Saturday at our wedding if we were in Nigeria.
"Even though we went to great lengths to make sure we had security, the thought of the police barging in and arresting all our guests, my wife and I, to be carted off to jail, the women raped and beaten, the men brutalised, and my children beaten along with everyone else.
"When I got my bearings, I got on my knees and thanked God for his grace of living in the US. Then I remembered all the people that could not do what we did with grace and class.To all of you (gay) all over Africa, #westandforyou. May all our days be filled with blessings and grace."
In Nigeria, such a gay marriage would have met with a clampdown from authorities as a result of the country's Same-S*x Marriage (Prohibition) Law, which prescribes up to 14 years jail.

| Why Is Fayose, Wike & FFK Silent About Latest Expose On The Ikoyi Billions? Posted: 22 Apr 2017 12:16 AM PDT 'Ikoyigate' Latest And The Conspiratorial Silence Of Wike, Fayose And FFK
By Nelson Ekujumi
Following EFCC discovery and recovery of about $43m from a private apartment in Ikoyi, Lagos, tongues started wagging as to the identity of the owner or owners in view of other discoveries without ownership in Kaduna airport, Legico shopping mall, Balogun market, etc.
But before one could say Jack..., the trio of Governors Nyesom Wike, Ayo Fayose and Femi Fani Kayode jumped into the fray in a well orchestrated manner and chorused that the cash belonged to Mr. Rotimi Amaechi, former Rivers state governor and minister for transportation, even without producing any fact to back up their allegations rationally and legally.
Infact, governor Nyesom Wike in borrowing a leaf from his brother in utterances and conduct, party associate and friend governor Ayo Fayose, was quoted as threatening that the Federal government will not know peace until the recovered Ikoyi funds is repatriated to the coffers of the Rivers state government which he insisted against logic, rationality and facts as the owner of the funds.
Despite the NIA DG coming forward to claim ownership of the money as belonging to his agency as funds approved by immediate past President Goodluck Jonathan for some covert operations, Nigerians were very doubtful because of the indisputable fact that our environment is one in which truth is in short supply privately and publicly, coupled with the fact that the money was recovered from a private residential apartment and not from any of the offices of the NIA which was claiming ownership.
However in the midst of the brouhaha over the Ikoyigate, public interest in the matter increased the more rather than abate because of the repeated abuse of public trust by those saddled with the responsibility and the resolve of the people that it must no longer be business as usual in this era and administration of change.
With the increased public consciousness to get to the root of the Ikoyigate, came the disclosure of the names of the owners and occupiers of the apartments in the building including the one from which the money was recovered, which was listed as being occupied by the DG NIA and his wife.
Consequently, the publications of the names of the occupiers of the apartments in the building exposed the barefaced malicious blackmail and campaign of calumny by the trio of Wike, Fayose and FFK as the arrowheads, acting out a well orchestrated script to malign the name of Mr. Rotimi Amaechi at all cost because of political differences and to distract Nigerians from the substance of Ikoyigate, which is a testimonial of how the administration of former President Jonathan abused public trust and undermined national security which they seem to have knowledge of.
Unfortunately, since the latest action of the Federal government of suspending the SGF and DG NIA by constituting a 3 man investigative committee headed by Vice President Prof. Yemi Osinbajo to determine the appropriateness of the Ikoyigate funds and report back in 2 weeks, the conspiratorial silence of the trio of Wike, Fayose and FFK has exposed them as hatchet men with intentions which is at variance with public good.
As we await the outcome of the investigative panel that we are hopeful in, one can only enjoin Nigerians to be patient and expect that justice will be served and refuse to be distracted and confused by anti democratic agents on the prowl.

| Lady attacked by Church leader's son for allegedly sleeping with his father Posted: 21 Apr 2017 10:01 AM PDT | A 30-year-old lady, Kelebogile Koenaesele was attacked as she left the church yard in Botshabelo area in South Africa over allegation of sleeping with her church leader. She was allegedly attacked by the church leader's son who accused her of sleeping with his father.
Kelebogile was apparently hit with a stone and she's now recovering in the hospital.
She said on Friday she got an SMS from an unknown number. "It said they wondered why Kelebogile prayed, but being the bitch she is, she will pay for her evil deeds. "The son of a church leader accused me of dating his father. On Sunday when we left church, a stone hit my back and I fell down. He threw stones at my face. I don't know why he accused me as I am a married woman and the man is also married.
"Now I see why they chose to speak about adultery. Even the church founder spoke about women dating married men. I'll open a case as soon as I am discharged."
In his reaction, the church leader said: "When my son beat Kelebogile, I was not at church. I am not dating her. I help her and her family."
The senior pastor and founder, Archbishop Malefatsane Ramahodi said: "I heard about the members who fought. I spoke to the leader about the matter and when Kelebogile comes out of hospital, we will resolve it."
