4 foreign hikers who posed naked on Mount Kinabalu in Malaysia were freed Friday after they were fined and sentenced to time served.

The backpackers from Britain, Canada and the Netherlands — were arrested after stripping naked on May 30 and posing for photos on the mountaintop.
The mountain is considered sacred in Malaysia.
 
They had pleaded guilty to “committing an obscene act.”
The 2 Canadians have been identified as as Lindsey and Danielle Peterson. The Briton is named Eleanor Hawkins but the name of the Dutchman has not yet been confirmed.
 
The court in Kota Kinabalu on Friday evening fined the 4 tourists 5,000 Malaysian ringgits, about $1,332, each and sentenced them to three days in prison. Taking into account the time served already, the court ordered them freed.
 
Local residents had said their behavior caused the Kota Kinabalu earthquake this month, which killed 16 people. The indigenous people of Sabah believe the tourists disrespected local culture and angered the spirit of the mountain.
 
Among those who appeared in court was a British citizen who was arrested at the airport this week as she was about to leave for the capital of Kuala Lumpur.
 
The other three turned themselves in. They could have faced three months in prison.

Baring any last minute changes, President Buhari is expected to present his ministerial list to the National Assembly members for screening and consideration next week. The ministerial list is expected to be made up of only technocrats who he believes will be very productive in whatever capacity they are to function in.

Names like ex Lagos governor, Babatunde Fashola, Oby Ezekwesili, Kayode Fayemi, former Chief of Army Staff Lt Gen Abdurrhaman Dambazau amongst others are rumored to be in the list.

There are also reports that the President will be picking his Ministers from all 36 states which is against his wish as he is reported to have wanted a smaller number of Ministers for cost effectiveness. The constitution however dictates that all states must be represented in the Federal cabinet.

Teacher Fired for Shockingly Racist Post

Emeka Ike takes on Wale Adenuga

Veteran movie maker and entertainment entrepreneur of the popular Super Story TV series, Wale Adenuga was our guest last Saturday as the Showtime Celebrity. The highly talented producer, who has made many stars, took his time out to answer a number of questions, on the problems of the movie industry especially piracy.
Wale-Adenuga
Wale-Adenuga
Then he took a cursory look at Nollywood and asserted that the Igbos have taken over Nollywood and explained in vivid terms why he feels that the Yorubas and the Hausas are not part of Nollywood. He further added that the claim that Nollywood began in 1992 was a spurious one.
Nollywood became popular with Living In Bondage, a 1992 movie that sold millions of copies and enjoys tremendous reference in the industry. Adenuga finds this misleading.
“They defined Nollywood as a product of 1992. It suggests that those who have been making films before 1992 are not part of Nollywood. That to me, is a dangerous claim…..When somebody claims he founded Nollywood, Oga Bello, of course I, cannot be part of that. When I produced my first film in 1983, Emeka Ike and his Nollywood people were still in school.
They started their own film-making in 1992 and they are claiming that 1992 was the beginning of film-making in Nigeria” so stated Wale Adenuga in the interview published on this page last week. It was an honest statement, probably made with noble intent but it was a can of worms he had opened. Emeka Ike did not hide his feelings.
He was particularly irked by the statement that Igbos have taken over Nollywood and took his time to

chronicle how the movie industry we know today as Nollywood actually emerged.

Emeka Ike’s reaction to Igbos taking over Nollywood
The Nollywood you know today is not the one that cropped up from Hilbert Ogungbe. Nollywood came about with the sales, marketing and multiplication of CDs. The Igbos got more involved by their investments. The Igbos did what they had to do, whether good or not, it has given us the platform.
They provided the medium for conveying our movies to every home. After a while, the Igbo people decided to go into movie-making themselves. We should try to see how we can empower the different regional ethnic areas to make their movies, interpret their culture and at the same time have Nollywood at the centre.
It is wrong to start saying who started Nollywood, who did this and who did that. It’s not a good way to go for a man of his pedigree. When he made his movie, nobody knew him, just like we made our movies when nobody knew us. The platform has been created by both the Yoruba and Igbo marketers in Idumota and he started making it more than even most of us that created the image that he took advantage of.
Good for him, we are happy, he’s a visionary. But as a huge stakeholder in this industry, talking about the Igbos or Yorubas is unnecessary at this stage of our country’s democracy and development where we ought to come together and chart a course. We should come together and frustrate the enemies of the industry, the enemies are those who have stood between the Nigerian youths and their pension money.
They prevent our youths from being paid when they are shown on TV. Actors should be paid each time they are shown on air, that’s how it is on international contract and movie making standard. Artistes should be properly remunerated anytime their movies are shown on air. These are things we should be working towards. I’m personally working towards galvanising Kannywood, Nollywood and the Yoruba movies together.
We cannot be divided, we should have a central working system under which we would have different links: Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa, Ijaw etc. They should all be streamlined under Nollywood, creating a stronger product. For you to now start dividing, it is backward for a man of that pedigree.
He should keep making good movies which we are proud of and then let’s see how we can chart a policy to make sure that the people acting in his movies get something back as remuneration – as their pension money, so that when they fall sick in future, they can see something to fall back on.
That’s why most of our colleagues are dying because when they encounter difficulties, there’s no rescue except going to beg people. There’s no pension money to help them, some people have coerced it. I can tell you that some people are taking the royalties of all the Nigerian artistes on DSTV.
People are stealing royalties belonging to actors
These are well known people in the industry, every time they show Nigerian movies on TV, they collect the royalties that belong to the Nigerian youths. When you mention Emeka Ike to them, they want to tear their skin, but that will not stop me from trailing them down.
Go and ask African Magic, they pay people money. I don’t want to mention names here. I stopped fighting African Magic when I noticed that there were middle men. They were paying the middle game, they now pushed the fight to me and African magic.
I am saying actors should be paid the way they do on the international scene. There are people who take money from AMAA Awards on behalf of artistes. There are people who take the money coming in from all around the world – Hollywood, Bollywood, France etc. A few of my colleagues sat on these money and all they do is scandalising those of us who talk.
They paint a bad impression about us and make us look like troublemakers. Why won’t we make trouble? Why would there be peace when there’s injustice? People like Wale Adenuga should join hands with us to make sure that his artistes do not suffer in the future. You make a huge star and you eventually don’t have programmes for the star.
In all these pageants, millions are made, but they expose these models to prostitution. What is in all this for these people? These government of change should address all these anomalies going on and that’s what we are working on, to ensure that we remove those people in the middle. Go and ask the Ghanaian actors, when they show them with us on TV, they pay them in Ghana.
Right now, there’s change. Everybody must be treated with equity. Granted, artistes are desperate to become stars, they can do anything to become stars. These are the things I want to correct and I will expect someone like Wale Adenuga to come on board. Let’s sanitise the industry to meet up with Hollywood standard. If our Ghanaian counterparts get something in return for starring in our movie, then Nigerian actors are entitled to something too.
If it’s 1 dollar, make it an alert on their phones. Let’s have biometric ID cards; these biometric ID cards can stand like a master card ATM card where you can go and take anything that has accrued to you from your efforts in the past.
How come Nollywood is predominantly Igbo?
You could be right about that but that’s not to say that’s how Nollywood should be. When he (Wale Adenuga) made his movie, it was just a one-off. Several movies were made even before he made his own, that we didn’t know about. In that same 1993, Amaechi Obi and I made a movie that never saw the light of day just like his own didn’t.
But what we are talking about is history, pedigree. How did they start packaging this whole thing for export? How did investors get involved? How did all these become a budding industry? It is not impossible that Wale Adenuga would have made an unattractive movie. Let’s stop these tribal issues.
What should be the role of Actors Guild of Nigeria, in unifying all the sectoral bodies in the movie industry?
Actors’ Guild of Nigeria means every actor in Nigeria irrespective of tribe and ethnic background. What we are presenting to the government is a central working system. The last president of the Actors’ Guild of Nigeria is from Ijaw (South-South), before then, the last president was Yoruba and Emeka Ike is the next right now.
If Actors’ Guild is a Nigerian product, I’m of the opinion that Kannywood, Yorubawood, Kadunawood, Igbowood should all come under a central working system.
We’ve been operating on individual basis and that’s why the middle man has the opportunity to play the game he’s playing right now.
If we are going to see any stakeholder, we should go with an agenda that covers all. When we get a film village, Kannywood should have their own department; Yoruba movie makers should have their own; the Igbo movie makers should have theirs too and producers should have theirs. Then everyone can work together as a central working system, not one that someone can manipulate.
Our problem
*Emeka
*Emeka
How come they keep calling billions, billions and yet Actors Guild is situated on a 2-bedroom apartment; who is fooling who? I am a straightforward man and some don’t like it that way; who is fooling who? What were they doing in a 2-bedroom apartment upon all the billions we kept hearing Government gave out in the name of the industry?
These are the things we need to look at. Let’s face the Nigerian youths, the Nigerian problem seriously. Let’s bring the youths to the forefront; how do we market these youths? How do we make one million youths in every state have a place in Nollywood in the next two years? That is my target.
My target is to give one million artistes jobs in every state in the next two years. We would situate a strong central system and then have electives around the whole 36 states. These electives can now mentor every young child that has interest in the trade. The absence of this is what we see; confusion. So many kids want to be actors tomorrow; they keep calling me, I don’t have answers for them. I will fight all of them till we all lose it or gain it for everybody.
Open challenge to Wale Adenuga
So let him not think it is Uhuru here. Before Wale Adenuga opened his studio, I had opened my studio at Adeniran Ogunsanya. Before he started making cinematographers, I had made several cinematographers in my office at Adeniran Ogunsanya. I trained over a 100 ex militants in Ghana which was about the best training in amnesty; I did not embezzle a dime and those boys, they love me as if I’m their father.
They call me daddy because my interest is their life. They know I mean well for them. That is how we should go about as responsible Nigerians not just make a way for our own juniors. If Wale Adenuga Junior will not suffer in life, what happens to other people’s Juniors? So when they talk, they should know that the man they talk to, is a very intelligent man and not a riffraff or an idiot. I am properly educated, an Engineer is not a man you take for granted; I am painstaking in my decision and I am very concise in what I say.

Zimbabwean Currencywikipedia.org

At the peak of the nation’s inflation, Zimbaweans had to carry plastic bags full of money to buy basic goods like bread and milk. Prices of goods were rising at least twice a day.

The Central Bank of Zimbawe has announced a plan to completely phase out the Zimbabwean currency. Beginning on Monday, Zimbabwean bills can be exchanged for U.S. dollars at the rate of 175 quadrillion Zimbabwean dollars for every $1 US Dollar.

That means a holder of a 100 trillion bank note will only get 40 cents in US Currency.

Zimbabwe abandoned its currency in 2009 for a system based on the U.S. dollar and the South African Rand.

At the time even street hawkers refused to accept the country’s highest note of $100 trillion. At the peak of the nation’s inflation, Zimbaweans had to carry plastic bags full of money to buy basic goods like bread and milk. Prices of goods were rising at least twice a day.

Some members of President Robert Mugabe’s party, the ZANU-PF, have called for the return of the Zimbabwean dollar.

However, even the country’s Finance Minister, Patrick Chinamasa, has repeatedly said that the U.S. dollar “is here to stay.”

Pope Francis changes skull cap during Wednesday general audience in Saint Peter's square at the Vatican
VATICAN CITY (Reuters) – Pope Francis on Friday said he planned to visit the Central African Republic and Uganda in November, and hoped to go to Kenya, during his first trip to Africa since becoming pope.
Speaking to a gathering of priests from around the world, the pontiff said he wanted to add Kenya to his African visit but “it is still uncertain because there are organizational problems”.
The pope did not elaborate on the difficulties of visiting Kenya, but it has been a target for attacks by Islamist militants, Al Shabaab, who are based in Somalia.
Francis, who became pope in 2013, has already announced trips this year to Ecuador, Bolivia and

Kylie Jenner

Kylie Jenner and Tyga have reportedly decided the date to elope together, a report said on June 11, 2015. In this photo, Jenner arrives for the premiere of Open Road’s “DOPE” in Los Angeles, California, on June 8, 2015. Reuters/Kevork Djansezian
Kylie Jenner and her boyfriend Tyga have decided on a date to elope and begin their lives together with a fresh start, Radar Online reported Thursday. The couple was seen at a jewelry store in Beverly Hills earlier this month and, later, Jenner was spotted leaving a

show by Tyga wearing a sparkly ring on her left hand.

“Right now their plan is to get hitched in August,” an insider told Radar Online, when Jenner turns 18. The source also said that the couple wants to have a fresh start, away from Blac Chyna — Tyga’s former fiancee — and Jenner’s family, once the marriage is official. The source added that the couple was considering New York City or Europe as possible places to settle down.
“They are making plans to quit LA, for a brand new life away from her family and his baby mamma, Blac Chyna,” the source said, according to Radar Online, adding: “Kylie is done with the constant criticism and micro-management from her family, especially Kim, and she’s dead set on going her own way as soon as possible.”
The feud between Chyna and Jenner started in April after the latter started dating Tyga, and Chyna posted screenshots of messages from her conversation with Tyga on social media, and claimed that the rapper wanted the model back so they could “be a family again.” Chyna and Tyga have a 2-year-old son together, named King Cairo.
Chyna also took aim at Jenner in April through a “Kylie Jenner Lip Challenge,” where participants placed a glass or plastic cup around their lips and sucked on it for five minutes in an attempt to get pouting lips.
The feud between the two women had led to a break-up between Jenner and Tyga, but the couple reunited in May.

This tribunal cases is really ripping the covers off some of our popular beliefs and for INEC to discredit their card readers in court, it makes it all the more interesting.!
Please Read the Report Below:

According to the INEC response obtained by SaharaReporters and its desperate moves to cover up all the riggings and frauds for the PDP candidate claimed that the card readers were for verification of voters while the register of voters was the only document for accreditation of voters on the election day.

Delta State Governor Ifeanyi Okowa

In a bid to cover up all the frauds and electoral malpractices that marred the April 11, 2015 governorship election in favor of the Delta State governor and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate, Mr. Ifeanyi Okowa, the Delta State Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has contradicted itself.

The commission at an ongoing hearing at the Delta State Governorship Election Petition Tribunal in Asaba, Delta State capital stated that the card readers were not meant for accreditations but verifications of voters.

Following public outcry that greeted the Presidential election where INEC abandoned the use of card readers midway to the election, the commission had in a press statement signed by the Commission Secretary, Mrs. Augusta C. Ogakwu, made it clear that card readers will be used for accreditation of voters for the Governorship elections in accordance with the guideline for the 2015 general elections.

But in Delta state INEC statement of defense filed on May, 22, 2015 through its legal counsel, led by D. D. Dodo, SAN, and 7 others, in response to the petition filed by Olorogun O’tega Emerhor, the Delta All Progressives Congress, (APC) governorship candidate in the April 11, 2015 election with petition No: EPT/DT/GOV/32/15 before the Governorship Election Tribunal disowned the sanctity of the card readers and reneged on the electoral guideline and its directives on the use of card readers for accreditation of voters for the conduct of the 2015 general elections.

According to the INEC response obtained by SaharaReporters and its desperate moves to cover up all the riggings and frauds for the PDP candidate claimed that the card readers were for verification of voters while the register of voters was the only document for accreditation of voters on the election day.

“Card Readers are for verification of Voters while Register of Voters is the only document for accreditation of voters on Election Day. From inception it was contemplated that upon the failure of the Card Reader other contingencies will be resorted to in order to ensure that the election is duly conducted and that legitimate voters were not disenfranchised. The ultimate mechanism was to resort to the manual accreditation as provided for by the Electoral Act.”
