This story for me don't sound fair, if it actually happened at all. 
Shalom Miriam Shehu, has recounted how one of the daughters of President Muhammadu Buhari turned her out of a boutique yesterday.
Shehu, who says her father is a prominent figure in southern Borno and her mother is a retired federal permanent secretary, claimed an unnamed daughter of President Buhari came into the boutique in Wuse 2, Abuja, where she was shopping.
Shehu said that everyone was ordered out of the boutique, and she was particularly embarrassed.
She took to Twitter to explain how it happened.

Unbelievable!! I have just been walked out of a boutique in Wuse II by 4 armed Security Operatives on the order of Buhari's daughter.

For habitual Gala consumers like me you would notice that the size of the sausage roll has reduced.
the sausage roll normally eaten with the la casera drink has reduced in size.
i don't know if am the only one noticing this, it was embarrassing having bought a piece of gala and finding the size to be much smaller than before. i don't know if the fuel scarcity in Nigeria as of the time of my discovery is to blame for this.
     if have any gala sausage roll that has an expiring date dated from 31st of may 2015 up, please help me check or confirm let me know if i actually bought the original sausage roll or a FAKE!

same-sex marriage approved in Ireland

same-sex marriage approved in Ireland

By eMiracle   02:21:00   No comments:

Waving rainbow flags, embracing and crying, two thousand people gathered to watch the official results in the courtyard of Dublin Castle after voters, young and old, accounted for one of the highest turnouts in a referendum for decades."The amount of people who came out to vote is just such an emotional thing for us," said Fred Schelbaum, 48, standing with his civil partner Feargal Scott, 43, who he said he intended to marry.

"Up to now a lot of gay people felt they were tolerated in Ireland. Now we know that it's much more than that."

The crowds cheered as gay rights icons appeared on the square, including David Norris, whose campaign led to the 1993 decriminalization of gay sex and, and Rory O'Neill, whose Panti Bliss drag queen character became the face of the campaign.

Supporters in favour of same-sex marriage pose for a photograph as thousands gather in Dublin Castle …

"The future for young LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender) people in this country is incredible," O'Neill said.

"I'm just glad to be here on the day this Ireland came into being."

"A lot of my family have voted no in this campaign so at a personal level it has been very traumatic," she said. "I needed to wake up this morning to have thousands of people affirm my rights when certain people in my family weren't."The emergence of a new generation of young voters was a "historic watershed" in Irish politics that had the potential to finally break the link between church and state, she said.
"We woke up today to a new Ireland. The real Irish Republic that I have dreamed of my whole life," she said.

Several high-profile Irish figures who have come out as gay since the start of the campaign hailed the new atmosphere it had ushered in the country.

"Ten years ago Ireland was still a very dark place," said former minister Pat Carey, who waited until his late 60s to open up about being gay.

"There was a lot of raw wounds that needed to be healed. I think the young people of Ireland have grabbed this country by the neck and it's unrecognizable to what it was 10 years ago."

Airtel Android data 1+1 offer that allows eligible SIMs to get a whooping 4GB for just N2K or 9GB for N3.5K, both valid for 2 months is here and rocking well.

Airtel decided to follow exact pattern as they did during the BIS promo era by allowing only eligible SIMs for the offer i.e. SIMs that are whitelisted for the promo by Airtel computers.

To check whether your Airtel SIM is eligible for the latest Android data 1+1 offer,

Just insert your airtel SIM on any phone and dial the code *437*1# for the 4GB plan that cost N2K or dial *438*1# for the 9GB plan that cost N3.5K.

After dialing either of the 2 codes above, if you get a reply message that says “Dear customer, you do not have sufficient balance for this plan”, then you should know that your SIM is eligible and you can go ahead to recharge your SIM with the said amount and redial the code.

On the other hand, when you dial either code and  get a reply message that goes like this “Dear customer, you do not qualify for this plan”, then you should immediately know that your SIM is nowhere eligible for the offer.

When you have succeeded in subscribing for any of the plans, to check for your bundle balance at any time, just dial *223#

The good thing about any Airtel plan including this latest Airtel Android data 1+1 offer is that it can work on any device of your choice and not necessarily only Android.

If you are happy with this post, you can kindly use the comment box to tell us whether your SIM was eligible or not

The minister went emotional as she attended the service of songs for the late Oronto Douglas, the special adviser to President Jonathan on research and documentation. The event took place in Abuja in the night of April 30, 2015, Thursday.
The minister gave a rare insight into her health problems of the past:
“Oronto and I had two similarities in life, we both had cancer. I had my last surgery, 15 years ago and I shared my experience with him.”
She further narrated how she repeatedly sought to encourage the late presidential aide using her triumph over the disease, but did not mention the type of cancer.

 President Jonathan was represented by Senator Anyim Pius Anyim, the Secretary to the Government of the Federation.
The service of songs also attended by representatives of civil society, the government, the media and the clergy.

The Secret Of Living To 100 Years

The Secret Of Living To 100 Years

By eMiracle   10:11:00   No comments:

For the past 50 years, scientists at the University of Gothenburg, Sweden, have followed the health and lifestyles of 855 men born in 1913. Ten of the men lived to 100, and the study revealed a number of similarities in how the centenarians lived their lives.


CHECK LIST

• Don’t smoke
• Don’t drink more than four coffees a day
• Stay cheerful
• Keep your blood pressure low
• Maintain a healthy cholesterol level
• Have a mother who lived into her 80s
• Stay slim
• Own your own home by 50
• Maintain a good posture

Researchers found it also helps to own your own house by the age of 50 – an indication of a high standard of living. In addition they highlighted the importance of maintaining good middle-age fitness and having a mother who lived a long time. Dr Lars Wilhelmsen, who has been involved in the study for the past 50 years, said:
“The unique design has enabled us to identify the factors that influence survival after the age of 50. Our recommendation for people who aspire to centenarianism is to refrain from smoking, maintain healthy cholesterol levels and confine themselves to four cups of coffee a day.

The team discovered 27 per cent of those taking part survived to reach the age of 80, while 13 per cent made their 90th birthdays.  Of all the deaths occurring after the age of 80, 42 per cent were attributed to heart disease, 20 per cent to infection, eight per cent to stroke, eight per cent to cancer, six per cent to pneumonia, and 16 per cent to other causes.

Imelda J Speaks About Career, Projects, Love And Sex

Imelda J Speaks About Career, Projects, Love And Sex

By eMiracle   07:34:00   No comments:

Imelda Ada Okwori, aka Imelda J, can surely be in the list of the hottest Afro pop singers in Nigeria. She joined the music industry several years ago, and carved a niche for herself. However, Imela J has been in the centre of a couple of controversies.
The singer has allegedly had a romance with Governor Gabriel Suswan of Benue state. Her recent work is a new song, Jisoro. She is about to start full promotion of the single.
In a recent interview with Vanguard’s Iyabo Aina, the pop diva opens up on relations with Jaywon, an ex-Kennis music star, and her joint projects with Obesere, the Fuji king. She also reveals her feelings towards D’banj the Koko master and her attitude to sex.
Read the extracts from the interview below:

About entering the world of music

“It started while I was in the university. I was the choir mistress during my secondary school days. I entered for many competitions and won laurels. When I got admission into the university, I tried to visit the studio. I was with Nelson Brown I went to the studio for the first time in Lagos. That was some six years ago when I was still an undergraduate.
“Unlike other singers who started from their church choristers, music runs in my family. My mum was into music. She had a musical group while she was in secondary school. When I was growing up, she saw the talent in me and helped me to nurture it. But unknown to many, I started singing before I joined the choir.”

The Queen of Afro pop, Imelda Ada Okwori aka Imelda J

Completed projects

Imelda J has several singles during her six years in the industry: ‘My Love for You’ feat. OJB Jezreel (it brought the first international award to her), ‘Jisoro’, and collaborations with Jaywon, Phenom, Side One, K-Solo and some others. Her collaboration with Obesere started when the up and coming singer felt like “delving into Fuji music”.

Relationship with Jaywon

“I didn’t have any problem initially with Jaywon until mouth started wagging that we were dating. People around me started misbehaving and Jaywon started saying all kinds of things, confirming that he was having an affair with me. But its maturity that matters here.
“Jaywon and I were not friends. We were like normal day to day friends but people didn’t understand and when the rumour surfaced, his crew handled it in a very poor and immature way. Their reactions were negative as they went about writing so many things about me. I felt bad but at the end, I just let go and I’ve forgiven them from the bottom of my heart.”

About the most touching experience in life

“I’ve had so many touching experiences, and someday I will share my story with the world . This is because I’ve seen a whole lots of things in my life. Being an artiste, you are faced with a situation where you cannot help and not even your money.
“When I wanted to release my song title “Bread and Butter”, I was scammed to sign an agreement with a company which later turned out to be fraud and that actually discouraged me then from releasing the song.
“So as a female artiste, we face a lot of challenges everyday because I can’t even remember my most touching experience anymore because I have had a lot of it and it’s like an everyday thing for me. But for one thing, I never give up.”

The craziest thing in Imelda J’s career

“I think that was when I used my first school fees to buy a keyboard and that was during my university days. Funny enough, my dad didn’t get angry at me. According to him, he knew I was going to do that. That is the craziest thing I’ve ever done.”

The only male celebrity crush is…

Imelda J’s admires D’Banj: “Reason being that I love him and because he is very focus. D’Banj is a superstar who looks beyond the music industry. He dares even when it might fail and those are the qualities that attracted him to me including his lips. I think he’s a spirit-filled kind of person like me. I don’t mind having a relationship with him.”

The man of Imelda J’s dreams

“I love freedom and being happy. I don’t like someone who is domineering. For instance, if you are the kind of man that wants to go out and play snookers or football. As long as it is going to give you happiness and it’s not going to cause you any harm, I have no reason to stop you. Equally, if you know my music is my source of joy, my man should be able to support me financially and otherwise. He should be there for me. If he’s not well-to-do, I know he does not have but if he does, I know he should be there for me. If I want to go to the studio and the man is not allowing me, he is not my kind of man.”

About the meaning of sex

“To me, sex is highly spiritual because if I don’t love someone I cannot kiss the person. But something happened sometimes ago when a male fan kissed me on stage. I believe sex is more divine than the way people see it. I respect sex a lot and I think it should be sacred.”

Arik Air Suspends Flights To Dubai

Arik Air Suspends Flights To Dubai

By eMiracle   07:28:00   No comments:

Nigerian carrier Arik Air has announced a temporarily sus­pension of further flights from Lagos via Abuja to Dubai, the United Arab Emirates.
The flights from Lagos airport via Abuja to Dubai were started by the airline nine months ago. However, Arik Air announced the suspension of the service on April 29, 2015, Wednesday.
The company also informed that the recent flight delays and cancellations being experienced by the airline’s passengers in the last few days were due to the scarcity of aviation fuel (Jet A1) in Lagos.

Why the route is suspended from May 4, 2015, Monday.

The reasons given by the company are:
– a challenging wider economic environment in Nigeria;
– increasingly stringent travel regulation controls in the UAE;
–  the inability of the airline to compete on the route with Emirates and Etihad, which many air travellers see as the major players on the route (unofficial, from a source close to a company).

With the suspension, Arik Air became the second Nigerian carrier to stop operations to the UAE few months after commencement. Air Nigeria had suspended operations into the route a few months after starting them due to unhealthy rivalry between it and Emirates Airlines.
When Air Nigeria began the route then, the UAE carrier brought down its fares astronomically, which affected the revenues of the Nigerian airline.

No aviation fuel = problems of the passengers?!

The company requires a daily supply of between 600,000 and 800,000 litres of aviation fuel. However, scarcity hit Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos, with the first signs appearing on April 23, 2015, Thursday. As a result:
– flights were delayed or cancelled in cases where the destination airport had no airfield lighting;
– flights were diverted to other airports outside Lagos where the Jet A1 was readily available.
In its statement, Arik Air apologised to its passengers over the inconvenience, describing the cause as “circumstances beyond the control of the airline.”
It will be noted that cancellations and the bad attitude to customers by the staff of the company has recently resulted in tensions at the MMIA, Lagos. See more in the video below:

Jonathan Questions Buhari’s Victory: Encourages PDP members

Jonathan Questions Buhari’s Victory: Encourages PDP members

By eMiracle   02:49:00   No comments:

Jonathan and Buhari

The Punch reports that President Jonathan has on Thursday questioned the results of the March 28 presidential election, saying “the Peoples Democratic Party couldn’t have got those kinds of scores” it had in some places.


Jonathan said, “The problem is not whether we lost the elections, that is history, but how do we consolidate our party and move forward? If we are committed and we work hard, definitely the PDP will bounce back. The PDP is still the dominant party. If you look at the results, the difference is just 2.5 million votes and if you look at the areas where it is perceived that the PDP scored so low, the PDP couldn’t have got those kinds of scores but the elections are over, so the country first.
“It is not as if Jonathan alone made the sacrifice, it is all of us. I made the pronouncement but some of us are paying the price. Some people pay more price than I do, I know how some of you are already being persecuted and the kind of situation facing you. The key thing is that we must continue to unite, as a party; we must continue to work hard so that as we go into subsequent elections in 2019, 2023 and so on and so forth, the PDP will continue to come up strong. Even in the interest of the nation, we need the PDP.
“I still believe, though we have lost presidential election, some National Assembly elections, governorship elections especially in the North, the PDP is still the dominant party. Let us not judge the PDP by the results of the elections for the presidential election. Our duty is to go back and identify areas of challenges so that the party will come up strong and play the role as a very strong party. The PDP is still the most organised party, is still the party that is not owned by anybody, is still the party that whatever you are, you can get to any level with your competencies and so on.”

President Jonathan has also told the pdp defectors that they will return with empty stomachs since APC will first settle their party members before remembering the PDP defectors and that by then the food may have finished. However, he urged all the faithful party members to remain committed to the PDP, adding that even if it was difficult in the beginning, their aim would be achieved eventually. The president said, “I encourage members of our party to remain loyal to the party; not to be so disillusioned because we lost presidential election and decide to go where they think they will fill their stomachs or something. It is not easy. I have been here for five years plus, you hardly satisfy even 15 per cent of those who work for you.
“So, those people running and those already cross-carpeting, they will come back on an empty stomach because they will touch the primary members of their party before they get to them. They know you are coming because you are hungry; and before it will get to you, the food will be gone. So, let us be committed to the party, yes we will have challenges at the beginning but surely we will get to where we want to be.”
The President has also said that his congratulating the president elect was a step he tok on behalf of the PDP.
“Yes, I did not consult anybody before I made that phone call (to Buhari) but I made that phone call on behalf of all of you and on behalf of the PDP, “ he said.
Jonathan likened the 2015 elections to the nation’s civil war, saying people would give different accounts of the event depending on the angle from where they were reporting.
However, he said that because of his privileged position, he knew about the elections more than any other person. He said the most important thing was not about his electoral loss, but the need to consolidate the party and move forward. He said, “The issues of this 2015 elections will be similar to the civil war because different people gave different accounts of the civil war.
“The first book on civil war that I read was ‘My Command’ by Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, which is his perspectives on what he saw and observed. I recall (Chukwuemeka) Odumegwu-Ojukwu’s own was ‘Because I’m Involved.’ I know that the issues of the 2015 general elections, may be after few years when political scientists will write, we will get different perspectives.
“If you ask the various observer groups, each will give you a different perspective. Even among ourselves whenever we talk sometimes I laugh when people draw some of their analysis but by my privileged position, I know a little more about the elections than others.
“But the key thing is not whether we lost or won but that Nigeria as a nation must move forward. Political parties can only thrive when there is peace and stability in the country. If there is military intervention all the parties will disappear.”

The president further encouraged the members saying that despite the loss that the PDP had suffered in all the elections, it remained the dominant party in the country. He also expressed joy that countries that brought ships to Nigeria and were waiting to evacuate their citizens in case post-election crisis broke out did not have any reason to do so.
Attributing the PDP’s loss to conspiracies and betrayals from people trusted by the party chiefs, the Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the PDP, Chief Tony Anenih, said, “There is a lot to be done. We need a very vibrant and strong party that can stand in as a strong opposition party; a party that can stand well in the next election. That party has to be put in place now. I believe that we are on the right path.”
Senator Ali said the lessons learnt from the elections would be used to wrest power from the APC in 2019. He said it was sad that the PDP lost despite all the energy it put into the electioneering. He also said the report would provide a road map for the PDP to move forward. Ali described the campaigns in the 36 states of the federation as largely successful except for a few incidents in some states.

bat-winged dinosaur discovered in China

bat-winged dinosaur discovered in China

By eMiracle   02:33:00   No comments:

this will really fascinate you, to hear of this Chinese amazing discovery   (a new dinosaur with bat wings)  i came across this new discovery on CNN

(CNN)Chinese scientists say they have discovered a new dinosaur species, with bat-like wings, that sheds light on how dinosaurs may have evolved into birds.

Based on a fossil specimen discovered in China's Hebei province a decade ago, scientists estimate the bird-like dinosaur existed for a very short time 160 million years ago during the Jurassic Period, according to a new paper published in scientific journal Nature on Wednesday.

The flying creature weighed about 230 grams and was 63 centimeters in length.

Xu Xing, a paleontologist with China's Institute of Vertebrate Paleontology and Paleoanthropology, and lead author of the report, told CNN the dinosaur's fossilized remains highlighted the complexity of evolution.

Named Yi qi, or "strange wing" in Chinese, Xu said it was one of the earliest dinosaurs to show some capacity for flight -- even though it wasn't very successful.

Only known specimen of the new dinosaur Yi qi.

Unlike other bird-like dinosaurs, its wings were made from membranes -- like a bat -- rather than composed of feathers.

It didn't become the birds we see today -- it tried but failed.

"It's a failed experiment, it's an evolutionary dead end," Xu said.

"Over the last 30 years, there were so many discoveries made that demonstrate birds are really descendants of dinosaurs," he said.

"It's a great example showing how dinosaurs evolved into birds."

Artist reconstruction of dinosaur Yi qi.

Even though the dinosaur had wings, Xu said it's unclear whether it could flap them and most likely moved through the air mostly by gliding.

He told CNN the fossil is now held in a museum in Shandong Province, and the next step would be trying to find more fossils of the same species to be able to better understand, for example, its flight capability.

Thanks to a robust economy, China has become a major center for dinosaur discovery and research.

"We have more funding for paleontological expeditions," he said. "So now there are more expeditions in this country than 30 years ago, which means you can find more fossils.

Widespread construction work also helps to expose more rocks and fossils, he added.

Senators wants a President that is Not Imposed By a Godfather

Senators wants a President that is Not Imposed By a Godfather

By eMiracle   11:59:00   No comments:

Following the intensifying the contest for the Senate presidency, 64 ranking and new senators-elect have met yesterday in Abuja.
They expressed support to the ex Kwara state governor, senator Bukola Saraki, for the post of Senate president.
The commendation came as ex Vice-President Atiku Abubakar yesterday said the chieftains of the All Progressives Congress (APC) was working hard to harmoniously resolve the intense tussle over the zoning of main offices of the National Assembly.

The senators in support of Saraki, who is from the North-central geopolitical zone, had decided to toss their weight behind the former Kwara governor because they want a “Senate president who is a product of the members and not imposed by a godfather.”
According to a source, those present at the meeting included 19 senators elected on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and 45 from the APC.

The source said those that attended the meeting comprised Senators Muhammad Adamu Aliero, Danjuma Goje, Andy Uba, Mohammed Ali Ndume and Gilbert Nnaji.
Others comprise Dino Melaye and Isiaka Adeleke, who have just won poll to the senate, the three senators introducing Delta state and two from Edo State, among others.
The notice gathered, is meant at awkward attempts by the APC to zone the Senate presidency to the North-east geopolitical zone, and efforts by the National Leader of the party Bola Tinubu, to impose Senator Ahmed Lawan, his preferred candidate from Yobe State, as Senate president.

However, Atiku, who was in a closed-door meeting with the president-elect, Muhammadu Buhari, for almost an hour, told reporters that the changes that the incoming APC government means to bring into governance will not happen overnight but will be a continuing process.
The APC chieftains had in the last two weeks been struggling with the matter of zoning of principal offices to be engaged by the party in the National Assembly with different shareholders pushing for their interests.

Governor Shettima of borno state has been overjoyed over the news of the chibok girls rescue

Gov. Shettima who spoke through his spokesman, Isa Gusau, in Maiduguri had said:

“The lives, safety and well-being of all citizens of Borno ‎are of equal importance to me. I celebrate this news about the rescue with so much excitement in a manner I would celebrate when the military succeeds in freeing the Chibok schoolgirls are very dear to me. I was so full of excitement, gratitude to God almighty ‎and commendation to our gallant armed forces for this great humanitarian feat. For me, the lives, safety and welfare of all citizens of Borno State are of equal importance.

These rescued women are daughters, sisters and perhaps also mothers whose lives are important not just to their loved ones but also to me as Governor of Borno State whose mandate is to cater for the welfare of all those living in any part of Borno State regardless of who they are, their faith, gender, age, geopolitical origins and other background elements. They are important to us and words cannot explain how pleased we are.
We are very particular about Chibok schoolgirls because of the peculiar manner in which they were kidnapped and how that kidnapped has redefined the Boko Haram insurgency. The Chibok schoolgirls are very dear to my heart because they were kidnapped while they were in school. Their kidnap is very symbolic because their kidnappers are opposed to western education especially female education.

The entire world especially myself, is desperate about the rescue of the Chibok schoolgirls in order not to allow the ideology held by the insurgents to thrive and to encourage education which is the foundation of any human or society that seeks to develop. However, this rescue is also very dear to me. I am as pleased as much as I would be when the Chibok schoolgirls are rescued by the special grace of God. I am very optimistic, prayerful and supportive of the military’s ongoing rescue and counter insurgency operations.
We won’t give up on the Chibok schoolgirls like I said two weeks ago. No sane parent gives up on a missing child. I have daughters and I know the love of a parent to the girl child. For now, it is better to allow the military handle things, conduct their investigations and ascertain the identity of those rescued but irrespective of the identity of the girls, we are very happy they have been rescued whether they are citizens of Borno or anywhere else.

I kindly urge the media to refer to the military for updates on the matter so that there are no mix-ups at any point. I kindly call on all citizens of Borno and other fellow Nigerians to pray for our armed forces and volunteers to succeed so that good will triumph over evil. We have abiding faith in God that he will see us through these times and we shall overcome the temporary but traumatic moment of grief. God will set Chibok girls and all Nigerians free from fear and the brutality of Boko Haram Insurgents and others in their league.”

Atiku holds a private meeting with Buhari

By eMiracle   14:33:00   No comments:

Atiku Abubakar, ex Vice President, has met with the president-elect, Muhammadu Buhari at the Defence House, Abuja.
Former Vice President said that discussions held during the brief meeting were private.
Meanwhile, he told journalists that the All Progressives Congress had the ability to thrash out matters surrounding the zoning of offices particularly at the National Assembly.

When answered why he met with Buhari, Atiku said: “We just discussed private matters,” continuing that it was too early to talk about resolving the case of zoning.
“That is too early. This is something the leadership and the party is handling. I believe it will be resolved before the House is reconvened (in June),” Atiku said.

He also expressed assurance that the emergence of Buhari and the APC would bring about the change that Nigerian had been deserving.
Meanwhile, former Vice President, advised Nigerians to give the incoming government time to deal with the issues it was going to oppose.
Atiku said: “Really, changes will come. The President-elect has assured the people that, but it will not just come overnight; it has to be gradual. Definitely, there will be positive change in that matter but it will be gradual.”
In a comment by his media office, Atiku said he was rejoicing at the reports of the rescue of nearly 300 girls and women from the Sambisa Forest by Nigerian army.

Muhammadu Buhari, Nigeria’s president-elect has denied banning African Independent Television (AIT) from covering his activities

The president-elect noted that he became aware of the matter after the public uproar it caused.
In a comment issued by Garba Shehu, the head of the media and publicity directorate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential campaign, Buhari was cited as saying: “The time of change has come and we must avoid making the same mistakes that the outgoing government made.”

 Shehu’s comment said the president-elect has instructed all his personnel, comprising the staff attached closely to him, “to steer clear of all dealings with the media, and leave all media affairs to his official media team”.
Buhari said: “I would like everyone to henceforth stay within his/her defined area of responsibility.”


Buhari continued that his media team should be left to deal with their media colleagues as they best knew how, the statement added.
The channel had been banned from covering Buhari’s activities on Monday, April 27, but the APC upturned the decision the next day.
Shehu had said: “AIT has been asked to step aside based on security and family concerns.”
Nigerians in their reactions criticised the president-elect decision, supposing that he can return to dictatorship.
