The Federal Government does not build general hospitals. But PREMIUM TIMES can report today that President Goodluck Jonathan has waived two vital rules to establish a princely N2.8 billion new general hospital for his hometown, Otuoke, effectively placing the coastal community as an exclusive beneficiary of a strange largesse not known to federal laws.

Conveners of the National Political Summit on the future of Nigeria, tagged, Uyo 2013, have dismissed the recent comments credited to elder statesman, Chief Edwin Kiagbodo Clark, that those billed to attend the event were against the progress of President Goodluck Jonathan.

Reacting to the statement yesterday, Ms Ankio Briggs, one of the South-South coordinators of the summit, said Clark’s words were harsh and unacceptable.

She said, “How can calling for this summit of Nigerians from different sectors and parts of the country to discuss the future of Nigeria, call for a Sovereign National Conference, people’s constitution and true federalism amount to being unpatriotic, undemocratic and enemy of President Jonathan? I find it difficult to believe that my elder and leader, Chief E.K Clark feel that when people sit down to discuss the future of Nigeria, they are unpatriotic and undemocratic. It is harsh.

Embattled Governor of Rivers State, Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi has reiterated his claim to the chairmanship position of the Nigeria Governors Forum (NGF) and described those backing his Plateau State counterpart – Jonah Jang – as undemocratic.
Amaechi, who was speaking Wednesday night to State House correspondents at a mid-term dinner organised by President Goodluck Jonathan at the Presidential Villa in Abuja, dispelled the notion that the Forum was factionalised.
“I don’t know about NGF factions. We are holding NGF meeting and we agreed that those of us who were there should honour the president and attend the dinner, we have attended. You saw all of them, some have left and I’m leaving too,” he said.
When asked if he invited Jang to the NGF meeting which held briefly last night, Amaechi said: “He was invited. What is my business if he is not there? 16 governors voted for him, 19 governors voted for me. If he doesn’t accept the 19, he is undemocratic. Anybody who supports him, including television houses, are undemocratic. I have said it in a statement that if at any point in time we cannot hold what 19 governors said, then we should be afraid of 2015.

“If the PDP is suspending me for that reason, it is too bad. We must learn to be democratic. I am not aware that the party has given any reason for suspending me. If that is the reason, it is too bad. The party is yet to give any reason for my suspension. I’m not aware that the party suspended me for winning an election.”
Earlier, a brief meeting of the Nigeria Governors Forum held at the Rivers Governor’s Lodge in Abuja, from where the attendees proceeded to the Villa for the meeting with the President.
According to Ekiti State governor, Kayode Fayemi, the NGF meeting was deferred to honour an invitation by the President.

Let her know the things you like about her, what túrns you on about her– is in fact a huge túrn on for her.
If you frequent the bar scene or have tried online dating recently, you’ve probably been barraged by men who think that lewd séxual remarks or lame pick up lines are what it takes to get them a date— or into your pants.
And then, there’s the general insensitivity. Men can be thoughtless when it comes to dating and relationships. It’s not that they intend to be rude… they just don’t think things through. But that doesn’t mean women should necessarily push men away. Women play a part too. Sometimes, women can tend to focus on the negative, making matters worse.
Dr. Jane Greer, GalTime’s own Relationship Expert, and creator of “Shrink Wrap” (a national commentary on what we can learn from celebrity relationships), has heard it all… “He talked too much, he interrupted, he came late, he told you that you were going out to dinner and then he changed his mind… this list could go on infinitely because the knee-jerk response is to talk about what túrned you off.”

Sex toys seem to be everywhere these days. But the question is: are they advisable and healthy? Is there any harm in using sex toys? My husband would only enjoy sex get a good orgasm only when he had used a hard banana on me lubricated with menthol during foreplay before he starts off the actual thrusting in and out. I do not mind initially but now it has become a habit. He says it is homemade sex toys that he likes experimenting with because of their textures. He says that without them, he cannot get sexually connected to me. Do sex toys really promote sexual harmony? How many times per day can we use them and how long can someone become addicted to sex toys?

Are there bad and good sex toys? Are there any side effects from their use? Is there any harm if I use a carrot instead of a dildo/vibrator? My friends introduced me to some form of natural methods like the use of running warm water to arouse myself before my husband comes in (because it takes me ages to get aroused) than the use of sex toys. Which one do you think is appropriate? I was shopping online for sex toys and came across a site that seems very knowledgeabl. There, they say the only safe kind of sex toy to use is silicone. They claim that most sex toys have cancer-causing ingredients. Are there dangers of getting cancer from using sex toys?

These and many more are the questions many clients have asked me over the years as regard the object of sex toys.

George and Kathleen Williams returned to their Grayson, Georgia home after a day of shopping to discover the scene, with the truck sticking halfway out of their home.

"A little red pickup truck from across the street," George Williams said. "And it was driven by a 2 year old."

"They didn't mean to do it, so it doesn't make any difference," Williams said. "Nobody was hurt and like I said, things can be fixed, people can't."

This happened about an hour ago. A man trying to smuggle a Audi wagon car into Lagos was stopped by custom officers but he refused to stop. They chased him to Iyana Ipaja. When he got there he met a little traffic and decided to run out of the car. He was immediately shot dead by the custom officers. His body is currently lying on the express way now.

I don't know if this is right, but i think they shouldn't have killed him. I think they should have shot him on the leg or something.

Do you think the best thing was to kill him? The Police are right now at the scene trying to tow the car away.

Fatima spent the whole night and a better part of the morning waiting for Elikem to come to her bed.

Keeping an eye on Elikem is proving to be a tough business for Fatima. The Malawian, who is part of Elikem's 'harem', couldn't sleep a wink as she waited impatiently for Elikem to call it a night.

After the party, Elikem - who is a social butterfly of sorts - spent his time locked in conversation with Pokello in her bed. In the early hours of the morning, the Ghanaian decided to bond with sexy Selly, who told him there could be a possible love connection between herself and Neyll.

Upon realising that Elikem would not be coming to bed anytime soon, Fatima jumped out of her bed, duvet and pillow in tow and headed to the lounge. Elikem tried to call her back, but Fatima was not having that. The Malawian cut a lonely figure on the couch as she wrote out her frustrations on the white board.

Elikem at this time was warm and comfortable in Pokello's bed. When she decided to head back to bed later however, Elikem ditched Pokello's bed and jumped into Fatima's.

THERE are strong indications that the militant Boko Haram sect may have gone underground in the face of onslaught by the Nigerian Armed forces, while there are increasing concerns about the emergence of vigilante groups reportedly hunting down sect members, but whose source of funding is not known.

This is coming as the international dimension to the Nigerian war on terror was confirmed by the Commander of the US Africa Command (AFRICOM), General David Rodriguez, who said US forces were paying close attention to Boko Haram militants in Northern Nigeria as the group expands its ties with terrorist organisations on the continent.
Insurgency threats still exist
Sunday Tribune investigation showed that while the military claimed successes in the operations, some other insiders were warning that the rebels had simply disappeared, meaning that the threat of resurgence still existed. According to those hinting at this prospect, the jihadists were trained to hit and run and not necessarily to hold a territory, especially when facing conventional military forces.

It was learnt that few hours to the deployment of the troops, many jihadists had left the Borno /Yobe axis with many reports confirming that traffic towards the North-Western cities of Bauchi, Kano and Kaduna were high.
