Made4naijalove: Beautiful Nollywood actress, Regina Daniels and her billionaire husband, Ned Nwoko have shared couple goals in a romantic video which just surfaced the internet.
In the video, Ned Nwoko was spotted pampering his wife, Regina while spoon-feeding her. From the look of things, it appears the actress wasn’t feeling too well at the time the video was shot.
Regina Daniel’s marriage to billionaire politician husband, Ned Nwoko, has no doubt remained a thing of controversy.
Regardless of this, the young wife is living her best life without a care in the world. Rumors also have it that the actress is currently an expectant mother.
reuben81: this is the worst government I have ever see,u can't protect your own kinsmen,how much more the entire nation,and the worst of it the man cannot even address the nation
Even if he address the nation what different would it make?
Bjteensdes24: Hello, please this baffles me as I wonder why most people greet one another 'good evening' when it is dusk (5pm or 6pm) and also when the night finally comes(7pm).
Anybody to explain that better is there any correlation between those two words? If yes, why? Cos dusk is still a bit of day
English na wi papa language? whether 5pm oh, 8pm oh na good evening we know oh!
I don't really understand Plateau figure that is supposed to be 25 and here I'm seeing 21. Which number of cases should we believe, the one in the State or the one at the federal? I am confused.
ContractKiller: Buhari's New Chief Of Staff Is Gambari Is More Subtle And Even More Dangerous Than Late Abba Kyari
By Ambassador Dapo Fafowora
What I have written in this long piece is just some of my personal experience and encounter with him. Everything I have written here is in my memoirs 'Lest I Forget 'which he has seen and read.
I know him quite well. I was the one who in 1981 brought him to the UN at his request as a member of the Nigerian delegation. He was then a senior lecturer at the ABU. In fact, the late Prof Audu, who was then Foreign Minister actually advised me against inviting him to the UN. But he had strong academic credentials which impressed me.
He had obtained his first degree in political science from the LSE, and a doctorate from Colombia University in New York. We were looking for strong delegates to the UN General Assembly and I considered him the kind of delegate we were looking for. So I invited him as one of our delegates to the UN General Assembly. He was at the UN in New York with me. I gave him and his wife my city apartment which I was not using free for 3 months plus a car. I liked him and I was not seeking any favours from him.
After 3 months he returned home and sent me a note thanking me for giving him the first opportunity to visit the UN as a delegate and giving him his first experience at multilateral diplomacy.
However, he sent President Shagari a secret and private note that while he was at the UN he observed that I had not been attending the meeting of Islamic states at the UN.
President Shagari sent the note to Prof Audu who forwarded it to me in New York. He didn't even ask me for any comments on Gambari's secret memo as Prof Audu fully understood that Nigeria had traditionally not been attending meetings if the Islamic states as we were not then a member of the Group. Gambari asked for a private meeting with President Shagari which Prof Audu advised against. I was shocked that someone I had helped so much turned round to betray me so blatantly. I did not tell him I knew about the secret letter he had sent to the UN. When Shagari was overthrown by Buhari Gambari became Foreign Minister.
When career ambassadors were being suddenly retired I was at first not on the list. But Gambari, now FM and Rafindadi, the head of the NSO who had worked under me in London, and was now head of the NSO worked together to secure my retirement. In fact, when I called him from New York to confirm from him news about my retirement he first denied it.
Thereafter, he no longer took my calls. In fact, I remained at my post in New York for another 3 months during which the MFA tried to reverse the decision to retire me. I had done absolutely nothing wrong in my entire career in the diplomatic service and only got into trouble for helping a young academic who turned against me to fulfil his own personal ambition. Since then, he and I have only met twice in very difficult circumstances. First at a dinner by a mutual friend in New York several years after my retirement.
He could barely look directly at me. He was clearly embarrassed. Then when Buhari won the elections in 2015 I headed a team that was set up to prepare a paper for him on our Foreign Policy. Subsequently, Alhaji Joda asked him to join the team. Last year, he suddenly called me to ask if I would kindly represent him at a public lecture he had agreed to chair.
I told him I could not and that he should look for someone younger. He immediately hung up on me. Now, he may be the kind of person Buhari is looking for to succeed Abba Kyari as COS.
They are very much alike but Gambari is more subtle and even more dangerous and will substitute the national interests for his own personal interests. I have no doubt about that.
What I have written in this long piece is just some of my personal experience and encounter with him. Everything I have written here is in my memoirs 'Lest I Forget 'which he has seen and read.
It is nothing new. But I think it important that the character of our top govt officials should be revealed and not covered up. We have, as a nation, paid dearly for supporting appointments to high office that are often detrimental to our nation.
BlissB: This is so inhumane. They should face the full wrath of the law. Nobody deserves this..... Even family won collect money to die the matter Make poverty nor cover our sense of reasoning abeg...
the family is been selfish. No amount of money that will be given to them that will wipe away the damage been done to the girl. They should have a second thought.
festacman: It is not just Kano. It is the same trend all over the country. Even here down South, there are more churches than hospitals. We need to change focus.
I agree with you. With all the Churches and Mosque Nigeria is backward in all ramification.
