NIGERIAN SUICIDE BOMBER, FAROUK ABDULMUTALLAB SENTENCED

Farouk Abdulmutallab, the young Nigerian who tried to blow up a US-bound airliner on Christmas Day in 2009 has been sentenced to life imprisonment.
Farouk pleaded guilty in October to eight charges, including the attempted murder of 289 people on board Detroit-bound Northwest Airlines Flight 253.
“I am guilty of this count in US law but not in the Koran,” he said in a six-minute speech on the second day of his trial.
The bomb hidden in his underwear failed to properly detonate and instead simply caused a fire as the plane began its descent, passengers and crew members were able to restrain him, extinguish the blaze, allowing pilots to safely land the plane.
On monday his counsel filed a motion seeking a lesser sentence with the argument that life in prison is unwarranted
But the U.S. District Judge Nancy Edmunds, who was due to sentence Abdulmutallab in a hearing today declined to consider a lesser sentence than life in prison.

NOW THAT 2FACE HAS PROPOSED TO ANNIE….

I’m sure Nollywood actress, Annie Macaulay hasn’t recovered from the shock. And to people who asked these questions…2face? Propose? Ít must be a joke! Are you for real? Finally? You can’t be serious? It has happened oo and you all should mind your businesses.lol
This I’m sure has been termed one of the biggest surprises of the century, when the news broke out today that renowned musician, 2face Idibia proposed to her age-long girlfriend and mother of one of his children, Annie Macaulay last night at JJ Okocha’s club 10. I was shocked but equally happy for the two lovebirds.
I knew Annie Macaulay right from plantashun boiz era and when he became a solo artiste. After his first armed robbery attack, Annie was right beside him in bed.
And years later when other women started coming in, I was like…..what happened? And when Annie got her own share of love, I was like this is real action film.
Now that 2face has proposed, I hope his ‘spirited attempt’ to become a father of different nations or the ‘beautiful dream of producing a football team or teams won’t be pursued.
Now that 2face has proposed, I hope marriage plans will follow.
Now that 2face has proposed, I hope we stop hearing ugly stories.
Now that 2face has proposed I hope people who advised him (at one point in time) to stop spreading the love will at least pop some champagne.lol
Now that 2face has proposed I hope protests by some factions would spring up. #okbye

Sisto, pls keep flaunting that ring.

IS MIKEL OBI ON STEPHEN KESHI'S LIST?

Stephen Keshi

There are speculations that Nigerian Super Eagles coach Stephen Keshi may not include Chelsea’s Mikel Obi in his list of players playing in the 2013 Nations Cup qualifier in Rwanda.

Though Mikel has resumed training after seven weeks out with a muscle problem, the coach insisted that only fit players will be involved in the game.
“It’s very simple only fit players would be invited now. We have three major qualifiers, there is CHAN 2012, AFCON 2013 and the World Cup qualifiers, so we are just building and everyone would get a chance but right now only fit players will be invited”.

“My list will consist of only players who are in action every week.”

With this statement, would Mikel who has been absent in his club for weeks be included in Keshi’s list?
On whether Blackburn Rovers striker, Yakubu Aiyegbeni who has been given a back seat after he missed a sitter against South Korea at the 2010 World Cup would also feature, he said that, “There was no time I said Aiyegbeni was on my list. But if he makes it to the list, that means he deserves to be there,” said the coach.

However, those who top the list of call-ups include Vincent Enyeama, Joseph Yobo, Osaze Odemwingie, Obinna Nsofor, Efe Ambrose, Ike Uche, Taye Taiwo, Joel Obi, Brown Ideye, Ekigho Ehiosun and Austin Ejide.
