Soldiers reportedly stop bus and force the young men with afro to shave their hair
December 17, 2018
A lady returning from her village has narrated how soldiers stopped their bus, questioned their driver for playing a certain kind of music, and forced the young men with full hair to cut their hair.
Sharing photos of the male passengers being forced to cut each other's hair with razor blade, Ify Nnamani wrote:
This here, is so wrong on many levelsI'm traveling back from the village and these soldiers stopped our bus. First, this one questioned our driver for playing music that reminds him of his days in the 'depot.' Then he asked these three guys to come down for carrying full hair. Now they are making them barb each other with the blunt razor they forced our driver to provide.I don't know when carrying full hair or playing music in the bus became illegal that these soldiers had to detain us for over 30 minutes. I was so angry on behalf of those guys, especially as some of the older folks in our bus kept saying they deserved to have their hairs cut that way. What is a guy doing with full hair?All these blatant abuse of power and bullying of innocent civilians by the military can't be allowed to continue unchecked.

A Nigerian lady took to Facebook to accuse a man identified as Goodluck of offering her N100,000 to get him female underwear.
LIB decided to share this post to create awareness regarding the incessant cases of stolen underwears which are reportedly being sold for ritual purposes.
Read her post below.
"I don't know how to feel about this. But this is the conversation between I and one Goodluck here on Facebook.I don't need to say much about our conversation because it's very easy to comprehend.I pasted his picture there because I want you all to identify him. Get him arrested and sent to prison. Or rather, stone him to death. He's one of the people perpetuating the act of selling panties belonging to ladies. And I want to assure you all that his account isn't fake. We've been friends on Facebook for years but haven't conversed.If this guy can ask me for such business proposal, then he can as well do anything. Ladies stay woke, be careful and prayerful and where ever you find him.
Free and fair polls: I'll give my opponents the opportunities I didn't have - President Buhari
December 17, 2018
President Buhari has once again promised a level playing field for all contestants into political offices in next year's elections.
Receiving a delegation from International Republican and National Democratic Institute, United States of America, at State House, Abuja, on Monday, the President said:
"I am glad you are here to assess our pre-election preparations. It reminds me of the visit by the then Secretary of State, John Kerry, before the 2015 polls. We appreciate the concern of America for stability in developing countries."Having run for president three times, ending up at the Supreme Court all three times, before God and technology made a way for me the fourth time, I know what it is to be cheated at the polls. What they used to do was just to award votes, and tell anyone who was dissatisfied to go to court. But we won't do that. I am prepared to give the opposition the opportunities I was not given in the past."
President Buhari assured the visitors that he had told the heads of the security agencies not to be partisan, but to do their work professionally, and allow the will of the people to prevail.
Stressing that the governing All Progressives Congress (APC) would keep faith with its priorities of securing the country, reviving the economy, and fighting corruption. The President said he was happy that the opposition has not been able to successfully fault the focal areas of the government.
"We have done fairly well in the areas we focussed on. We know how many local government areas in the North-east were under Boko Haram occupation before we came. That does not happen again, save for cowardly attacks, using young girls as suicide bombers. Other areas of security challenge like farmers/herdsmen clashes are receiving attention, and would be sorted out as much as possible."
On the Electoral Bill that was not assented to, the President said: "Time is against us. We are extremely vulnerable, and need to be careful that messages are not hijacked and figures tampered with, while being transmitted electronically. Even the Russians were accused of tampering with American election, so we will remain conventional, and use electronic transmission in subsequent elections."
Leader of the American delegation, Ambassador Linda-Thomas Greenfield, said they had met with the media, civil society, and political parties, and concerns expressed include fears of security agencies being partisan in the forthcoming elections, suspected non-commitment to free and fair elections by key stakeholders, delayed budget for the electoral umpire, Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), and the non-signing of the new Electoral Bill.

Popular reality TV star, Kim Kardashian has revealed that nude photos shared on her Instagram page upset her husband, American rapper, Kanye West.
Kardashian disclosed this during an appearance on ‘The Ellen DeGeneres Show’ on Wednesday.
When asked about her husband’s reaction to her recent picture in underwear while baking on Instagram, Kim admitted that the photo was solely taken “for the ‘gram” as she was not wearing that to bake.
She also revealed that her husband of four years was not happy about the post.
According to her, “I get in trouble with your husband sometimes over too many photos like that on Instagram. Kanye’s reaction to racy photos can be unpredictable, it’s like half and half.
“He always wants me to be me and feel confident and we’re having fun, but it also bothers him.
“I go through waves. Sometimes I’m like, ‘Ok I’ll be more conservative on my Instagram’ and sometimes I really need to get something out if I’m feeling good about myself or I’ve been working out really hard, and I’ll post something and he’ll get upset. It’s a cycle.”
