85-Year Old Pope Benedict XVI To Resign On The 28th Of February 2013, Says Vatican Spokesman


In a statement released today, Monday 11th of February by a Vatican Spokesman, Pope Benedict XVI will resign his position on the 28th of February, citing lack of strength as the reason to carry on. Read the statement below...

Dear Brothers,

I have convoked you to this Consistory, not only for the three canonizations, but also to communicate to you a decision of great importance for the life of the Church.

After having repeatedly examined my conscience before God, I have come to the certainty that my strengths, due to an advanced age, are no longer suited to an adequate exercise of the Petrine ministry.
I am well aware that this ministry, due to its essential spiritual nature, must be carried out not only with words and deeds, but no less with prayer and suffering.

However, in today’s world, subject to so many rapid changes and shaken by questions of deep relevance for the life of faith, in order to govern the bark of Saint Peter and proclaim the Gospel, both strength of mind and body are necessary, strength which in the last few months, has deteriorated in me to the extent that I have had to recognize my incapacity to adequately fulfill the ministry entrusted to me.

For this reason, and well aware of the seriousness of this act, with full freedom I declare that I renounce the ministry of Bishop of Rome, Successor of Saint Peter, entrusted to me by the Cardinals on 19 April 2005, in such a way, that as from 28 February 2013, at 20:00 hours, the See of Rome, the See of Saint Peter, will be vacant and a Conclave to elect the new Supreme Pontiff will have to be convoked by those whose competence it is.

Dear Brothers, I thank you most sincerely for all the love and work with which you have supported me in my ministry and I ask pardon for all my defects. And now, let us entrust the Holy Church to the care of Our Supreme Pastor, Our Lord Jesus Christ, and implore his holy Mother Mary, so that she may assist the Cardinal Fathers with her maternal solicitude, in electing a new Supreme Pontiff.

With regard to myself, I wish to also devotedly serve the Holy Church of God in the future through a life dedicated to prayer.

Nigeria Will Lift The AFCON Cup, Says T.B Joshua

The General overseer of the Synagogue Church of All Nation, Prophet TB Joshua predicts Nigeria's win over the Burkana Faso counterppart in the Africa Nation Cup Final match that will be played toady. Bellow is what he said precisely

“The cloud is darker over Nigeria’s Super Eagles, but with God we’ll scale through. If it were not to be the final, anything could have happened. The first match we played with Burkina Faso, it was just by the grace of God that it ended in a draw.

“On Sunday, our opponents will play defensively because they will be looking out for penalty shootout at the end of the game. They will also play through three of their strikers upfront; one of them very tall and huge player and two others.

“What I’m seeing I don’t want to say it because it would be too frightening, but I want to assure that we’ll scale through the challenge on Sunday.”

“if this happened the Burkinabe would fall back to defend the goal, which will be very dangerous for our team. I still repeat that no matter the situation, we’ll scale through.

“The Burkina Faso that we played in the group stage will not be the same team we’ll play on Sunday, even though some of their players are out of the squad due to injuries. They are still a team. But I hope for celebration.”

 “I think God should give us this cup to make the youths of this country happy. Winning this cup at this time of religious intolerance and violence will calm down the youths. I want to appeal to all Nigerians to pray for Eagles’ victory. I would have told you the scoreline but I would rather delay it till Sunday morning in order not psychologically distract the players and their coaches and not to demoralize the losing team.”

“My voice may be the one louder among the men of God in the country but this doesn’t mean that the team should come to my church to celebrate. I would rather prefer that they celebrate their victory with all Nigerians,” Culled from PM NEWS

Hey Pal! Nice to See You. Lionel Messi & Zlatan Ibrahimovic exchange pleasantry


It was alleged that Lionel Messi was the main reason why Zlatan Ibrhaimovic didn't get the chance he so much deserve which eventually led to the later's exit from Fc Barcelona, they however faced each other last night in a friendly game playing for their respective country where eventually Messi's team, Argentina triumphed over Ibra's team Sweden with the score line 2-3. The pertinent question now is, is this smile from both player real or they are just faking it?

20 Year Old Nigerian Girl Bath With Acid On her Way From Work


I was really reluctant to post this story the first time i got hold of it, as a matter of fact am still in shock. This is Naomi Oni, a Nigerian residing in UK, after a hard day of work, this sweet and beautiful lady who is infact the sole carer for her disabled mother Marian Yalekhue who is 52 was walking down home from her work place when an unknown woman bath her face with acid. Below is her recount of the unfortunate incident

I’d been working a late shift and was talking to my boyfriend about what we were going to do for New Year when I saw this Muslim woman wearing a niqab covering her face,’ 
‘I thought it was a bit strange at that time of night, but she didn’t say anything and I kept on walking.
‘Then I felt a splash on my face. It burned and I screamed out. I started running and screaming, holding my face, all the way home. I didn’t look back.
‘I got home and I was screaming and banging on the door. I was hysterical. Luckily my godmother, who is a pharmacist, was at home with my mum and she helped me and kept dipping my face in water and trying to calm me down until the police and ambulance got there.
‘I was in shock. Saying: “Who would do that? Who would do that?” How could anyone do this?’.
I look in the mirror and it just isn’t me. I’ll never look the same again,’ she said. ‘I’ve always been outgoing and confident in my job and in my personal life, used to getting attention for the way I dress or my hair, but now I don’t want anyone looking at me. ‘I don’t want people to see me in public. I don’t want to get the Tube or the bus. If I have to go to the hospital I take a taxi.
‘I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to go back to my job. I was planning to go to college in September to study media and fashion, but I don’t even know if I’ll be able to do that.’



For some months now, she's been having skin graft which she was told could  still last for some months or years while also and will be undergoing further surgery, even with all of this she still will be left with facial scarring. How pathetic....

After i saw this tweet from Wizkid, i most definitely have no doubt that the EME soldier might have left the record label, just immediately he bought his lekki home, rumor has it that there is rift between the baddest boy and the baddest boss. See what he tweeted...


Is he referring to Banky W taken loyalty for stupidity? Are we about to see another D'banj & Don Jazzy scenario? Your guess is as good as mine...
