That he president will do everything to reject revaluation of the naira – which is a good idea from a good leader. But there will be overwhelming pressure which he will not be able to resist.

Just before 2015 ended, Kanye West released a surprise, victory rap titled “Facts,” that went through his highlights of the year.
Kanye released the rap on SoundCloud on Thursday night at about 9:37 p.m. EST and raps in the new song:
“I feel so accomplished.”
He starts the song with a rehash of his line from “New God Flow,” with the chorus: “Yeezy just jumped over the Jumpman,” referencing his sneaker’s dominant sales this year, overshadowing Michael Jordan’s sneaker sales in 2015.
West, who left Nike and took his Yeezy sneakers over to Adidas, celebrated beating his old brand, taking several shots at the athletic wear giant.
“Nike treat employees just like slaves, gave LeBron a billi not to run away,” the rapper said, referencing LeBron James's lifetime endorsement with the brand, which he signed on Dec. 8.
West, also a fashion designer, boasted that while he hadn’t released an album all year, his “sneakers went platinum” in 2015. The shoes sold out almost instantly at stores internationally, West said in his track.
Going through more of his 2015 highlights, the rapper called back to his speech at the MTV Video Music Awards, when he ended it telling the world he would be running for president in 2020.
He reminds listeners on the track that he hasn’t forgotten about his campaign.
“2020, I’mma run a whole election!”
West gives high praises to his superstar wife, Kim Kardashian, claiming her “Kimoji” app broke the Apple Store when it came out.
While Yeezy had a great year, he also decided to give shoutouts to two stars who have had an awful 2015.
“Do anybody feel bad for Bill Cosby? Did he forget the names, just like Steve Harvey?”
West also celebrated the birth of his son, Saint West, in December, but the boy was noticeably missing from the victory lap track.
Welcome to the beginning of a New Year of the continuation of CHANGE in our beloved nation.
I am aware that Nigerians have experienced a number of significant hardships over the past months. Living in the State House has not alienated me from your daily sufferings. I am aware of the lengthy queues at fuel stations and of the difficulties businesses have faced in acquiring foreign exchange.
These challenges are only temporary; we are working to make things better. When I presented myself to you as a presidential candidate and asked you to vote for me, I wanted to be a leader who keeps his promises. I wanted to be a leader who restores the people's hope in those elected to serve them. I wanted to be a leader who initiates positive and enduring CHANGE.
I am still totally committed to being that kind of leader. Unforeseen circumstances and other distractions notwithstanding, I shall still do my utmost best to keep every promise I made to Nigerians during my election campaign. In the past seven months since our inauguration on May 29, 2015, my administration has focused on laying the right foundation for the CHANGE you voted for during our historic presidential election. Nigerians will in due course begin to enjoy the fruits of all our ongoing work.
The effective and efficient implementation of our 2016 budget proposals will address many of the socio-economic issues that are of current concern to our people. One area in which Nigerians, especially those in the northeast, have already begun to experience major CHANGE is in the war on terror. I commend our Armed Forces for significantly curtailing the insurgency which has ravaged the northeast of Nigeria over the past few years.
However, there is still a lot of work to be done in the area of security. Our Armed Forces will maintain, consolidate and build on their successes in the war against Boko Haram and violent extremism. This government will not consider the matter concluded until the terrorists have been completely routed and normalcy restored to all parts of the country that have been adversely affected by the Boko Haram insurgency.
Our crackdown on corruption will continue to be vigorously undertaken. I urge the courts to support our efforts and help in the recovery of stolen funds by speedily concluding trials and showing that impunity no longer has a place in our country.
There is much work to do in other areas as well and I have charged all my ministers and other appointees to ensure that Nigerians experience positive changes in their lives in 2016.
We must reduce our country's reliance on oil. We must diversify our economy.
And we must do all we can to promote job creation. Our challenges are many but our determination to succeed is strong and unshaken. So too is our confidence in God. I wish you all a very Happy New Year.
A Zimbabwean pastor, Lazarus Dube, has allegedly killed his wife and stepdaughter before hanging himself in a bush, because he caught his wife cheating on him.
In the tragic report carried by MyZimbabwe, the 44-year-old man of God, brutally slaughtered his wife Lucy, and stepdaughter Mary, 18, after accusing them of being prostitutes, before killing himself.
Dube allegedly committed the gruesome crime in his staff house at Sirmic Enterprises, industrial site.
He had reportedly called his uncle, Nickels Sibanda, barely 30 minutes after the murder, telling him he had killed his family.
Sibanda who travelled from Insiza to Kwekwe, told the police at the Kwekwe Police Station that his nephew, a pastor with an Apostolic Sect based in Mbizo 18, told him he killed his family because they refused to repent from prostitution.
“I can confirm that my nephew axed to death his wife and step daughter on Monday morning accusing them of being prostitutes.
I was in Insiza when my nephew called me. He told me that he had killed them because they were involved with many men. He said he had asked them to repent but they had refused to listen to him and continued being promiscuous,” Sibanda said.
Sibanda said as he attempted to talk him out of committing suicide, Dube hung up on him.
“I went to Mbembesi Police Station and told them about my conversation with my nephew. The police called Kwekwe Central Police Station. My nephew’s body and those of his daughter and wife were then discovered by the police.
We’ve no money to take our nephew to our rural home. So we’re burying him here. He was a quiet person and I’m shocked by what has happened,” the tearful Sibanda said.
I want to start by appreciating each and every one of you. You guys were awesome last year and I can never thank you enough. Thank you for the clicks and the comments, for the criticisms and the encouragements. I could never have done it without you. I am grateful

Ladies, another reason why it isn't advisable to 'go commando'. Lmao!
This is the hilarious moment a desperate boyfriend tried to cover his girlfriend after her trousers began to fall down during a violent funfair ride revealing she wasn't wearing any underwear.
The embarrassed partner tried to wrap his legs around her and hide her exposed backside when he realised her trousers were coming down and she wasn’t wearing anything underneath.
Wardrobe malfunction: The woman's trousers start to fall down
But the violent vibrations of La Tagada - a disk that spins and throws people around especially if they try to stand up - proved too strong for him to keep hold.
The couple became the stars of the show for cheering onlookers with beers and snacks in their hands as the pretty brunette struggled to maintain her dignity with the help of her partner.
The couple were having a go on the attraction called La Tagada at Costa Rica's Zapote Festival.
She ended up being flung into the centre of the ride with her trousers round her knees and her bare bottom showing before the ride was brought to a halt.
One of the onlookers took advantage of the confusion by recording the scene on his mobile and posting the footage, watched by nearly 15,000 people this morning, online.
The incident happened at Costa Rica’s Zapote Festival in the capital San Jose, a traditional end-of-year festival which runs from December 25 to January 3 and attracts around 25,000 people each day.
The Court of Appeal in Abuja on Thursday reversed the judgment of the Taraba State Governorship Election Petition Tribunal which had on November 7, 2015 sacked Governor Darius Ishaku of the Peoples Democratic Party and ordered the All Progressives Congress’ governorship candidate in the state, Aisha Alhassan, to be sworn in his stead.
In the lead judgment read by the presiding Justice of the five-man bench, Justice Abdul Aboki, the appeal court held that Alhassan and the APC had no legal right to challenge the alleged improper conduct of the primary which produced Ishaku as PDP’s candidate.
The appeal court held that the APC and Alhassan, who is currently Minister of Women Affairs, lacked the locus standi to challenge Ishaku’s qualification to contest the April 11, 2015 governorship election on the basis of alleged non-compliance of the conduct of PDP’s primary with provisions of sections 85 and 87 of the Electoral Act.
The appeal court therefore set aside the judgment of the Justice Danladi Abubakar and ordered that the certificate of return issued to Governor Ishaku by the Independent National Electoral Commission remained valid.
Before we go to the main gist, i just have to share this tweet. Lmao!
Now we have that out of the way, hilarious self-acclaimed King of Rap, Vic O has disclosed that he is set to drop his debut album in Nigeria. He says the other album was released in Europe.
The hilarious rapper who dropped a diss track for Drake and Meek Mill said in a recent interview with NET, disclosed that the album will be dropping early in 2016 and will be preceded by a release of several singles off the album.
‘What’s next for me is the release of my album titled ‘Best of Vic O’. This is my first Nigerian album because the other record I have released was dropped in Europe,’ Vic O disclosed.
He further revealed that songs like Why Evils (Rmx), ‘King of Rap’ etc will be dropping soon.
Does anyone know where I can get the European album?
Nollywood actor shared these 10 words of advice on his IG page. He captioned the post "My end of the year advise to all".
He wrote:
1. No matter who you are, how experienced you are, and how knowledgeable you think you are, always delay judgement.
2. Give others the privilege to explain themselves.
3. What you see may not be the reality. Never conclude for others.
4. Which is why we should never only focus on the surface and judge others without understanding them first.
5. Those who like to pay the bill, do so not because they are loaded but because they value friendship above money.
6. Those who take the initiative at work, do so not because they are stupid but because they understand the concept of responsibility.
7. Those who apologizes first after a fight, do so not because they are wrong but because they value the people around them.
8. Those who are willing to help you, do so not because they owe you any thing but because they see you as a true friend.
9. Those who often text you, do so not because they have nothing better to do but because you are in their heart.
10. Those who take out time to chat with you, does not mean they are jobless or less busy, but they know the importance of keeping in touch.
One day, all of us will get separated from each other; we will miss our conversations of everything & nothing; the dreams that we had.
Days will pass by, months, years, until this contact becomes rare... One day our children will see our pictures and ask 'Who are these people?' And we will smile with invisible tears because a heart is touched with a strong word and you will say: 'IT WAS THEM THAT I HAD THE BEST DAYS OF MY LIFE WITH'
Im doing this for all of you who made me smile in one way or the other via 2015 and it's ending, wishing u a prosperous and blessed new year, 2016
When I saw this tweet I shook my head in amusement. The complete irony of it all is very amusing. Lmao!
Our problems as human beings is the fact that we don't take our own advice. It looks like he was prophesying into his own life: he just didn't take the prophecy serious.
So who's laughing now, David? Anyway, we learn everyday.
Goodmorning Aunty Ijeoma,trust you're doing great and the family too. Today is my mum's birthday and I want this honourable family to join my family and I in thanking God and celebrating her. God bless us all and have a gleeful day. Florence.
We have been married for four years now but I have come to the conclusion that I have made a terrible mistake marrying my wife.
Despite her good family background and good education, she has a problem keeping her volatile temper in check.
At the drop of a hat, she blows up and levels all sorts of accusations against me. Apart from her verbal abuse, she’s recently resorted to being physical, but I soon tried to curb that.
The first time she raised her hands to me, I really beat some common sense into her.
She’s tried it a couple of times since then and I’ve given her the beating she deserves. I am not a violent person but some women really bring out the violence in you.
Surprisingly, I’ve also discovered that my wife is more sexually responsive after I have roughened her up.
This has excited me a bit and encouraged me to beat her more, though not to the extent that I would harm her.
Do you think she is one of these type of women who like violent sex?

Since yesterday, we have been assailed by the scandalous babymama drama between the Adelekes and the Momodus. This afternoon, Davido posted a tweet where he sounded like was ready to throw in the towel and stop fighting.
Ericsson Nigeria has admitted that a contract employee working with it was actually responsible for the Radio Biafra transmitter installed on an MTN mast in Enugu.
In a statement signed by its Managing Director, Johan Jemdahl, the firm said it had confiscated the transmitter and had notified the authorities.
The Swedish firm, which said it viewed the incident in an extremely serious light, disclosed that the contractor had been discharged of its responsibilities with the firm and taken into police custody.
The statement reads: “Illegal FM transmitting equipment was discovered connected to an outsourced MTN mast, managed by Ericsson, in Enugu in Eastern Nigeria. The equipment was immediately confiscated and the authorities were notified. A contractor to Ericsson has subsequently been taken into police custody after his involvement was discovered. He has been discharged from his contracted responsibilities with Ericsson.
“Ericsson views this incident in an extremely serious light. It is the result of a violation of its process that permits access to its mast sites. As a result, Ericsson has initiated immediate action to foil any similar attempts. All mast sites in Enugu and Port Harcourt regions have been audited while FM scanning was conducted. Critical attention was given to all high masts and sites located in mountainous areas, i.e. locations attractive for illegal activities. In addition, the Site Access Process will be reviewed for all employees and third parties.
