Bricklayer Jailed for pension fraud of N1.2million

Justice Musa Sale Shuaibu of the Federal High Court, Yola, Adamawa state,in Nigeria’s North east, has sentenced Papa Haziel, 22, to 12 months imprisonment for fraudulently obtaining the sum of N1.2million from Military Pension Board under false pretence.

Haziel was prosecuted by the Economic and Financial crimes Commission, EFCC. Haziel, who was arraigned on a two count charge, was sentenced without an option of fine.

The sentence is however to run consecutively.

The accused, who is a bricklayer, was alleged to have claimed to be the son of a retired military officer, Mr. Vatau Haziel, and forged documents with which he had been drawing money from the Military Pension.

During a verification exercise, Papa presented Vatau as a retiree.

When the lid was blown and Vatau was interrogated, he confessed that he was being used for the scam, but Papa insisted that his father was sick and behaves abnormally and therefore should not be taken seriously.

The two, Papa and Vatau Haziel, were arrested but later released on bail; Papa was to thereafter claim that his father had died as he presented a document which he claimed was the certificate of cause of death of Mr. Vatau Haziel, this was later discovered to be another forgery.

Prosecution counsel, barrister Abubakar Aliyu, in the course of the trial, tendered the forged death certificate, bank statement and instrument purported to have been used to withdraw money, a letter from Military Pension Board and the reply, EFCC letter to the MD Union bank and the reply as exhibits.

The accused person pleaded guilty when the charges were read to him, blaming the offence on the economic situation of the country, a development which necessitated Justice Shuaibu to convict him as he said it will serve as deterrent to others.

The judge admonished that it is not an excuse to steal to feed a family, saying such is a dangerous act that does not auger well for the developmental process of the country.

DJ Tee vs Alvin Osungade ---- My side of the story by Alvin Osungade

A mail Linda Ikeji got from the the upcoming act who claimed he was stabbed by top video director, DJ Tee, at a video shoot yesterday. This is his own side of the story...(heard the police is now involved)

My name is Tolani Alvin Osungade, and this is what really happened between Dj Tee and I...... Firstly, the video shoot was suppose to start @ 10am and I was there to support my friend "malcoholic" the owner of the video shoot. He (malcoholic) told to me invite friends (video girls and guys) which I did. The video shoot did not start early because it rained and the location was being cleaned. And due to the fact that the shoot didn't start on time, people were having refreshments, guys were drinking (including dj tee and his crew). As this was going on, comments were going round that dj tee just insulted some girls I don't know due to them asking for payment to be in the video and i also heard dj tee was going to call his own people to come and replace them.

Finally, my friends came by 5:30pm, and when they came and saw the set up they made their thoughts known to me that they don't do videos for free but they were being insulted by some guys I don't know myself but there was no fight and I did my best to calm them down and they decided to stay. My brother (Dolapo) came by 6pm with his friend, and Dolapo immediately made it clear to me that he didnt like the set up (the environment) as well and was going to leave in a bit. But I told him to stay just to support Malcoholic and he said "the only reason he's staying was because of me", and my invited friends also said the same thing because they were all tired of waiting and the video shoot had still not started since 1pm. Finally, the shoot started @ 7:30 and dj tee started calling people to come on set but there was little response due to people being tired from waiting all day then Dj started getting aggressive, his voice was getting louder, I was actually part of the first 5 to go on set and my brother (Dolapo) came along with me without his friend making us 6, few mins later, almost everybody joined. Some minutes later, I saw dolapo's friend walking away and I asked her where she was going and she only pointed at dj tee and she said he just insulted her and she was leaving, while this was going on, dj tee was lashing out at the people that were not on set yet, in his words "get these bitches out, get these bitches downstairs", Dolapo's friend was leaving the set then dj tee asked her what was wrong?

Sincerely speaking, I didn't hear her response but dj tee was speaking loud so I heard him say "bitch" and people went there to find out what the problem was. I didnt go with them because I was still on set and Kaffy (the dancer) was already coordinating us but I was looking towards that direction. Then I started hearing noise like a fight was going on and people were saying "dj tee leave him" and I also heard "Dolapo go" then I knew it was dj tee and my brother , then I went there. On getting there, the stairs was blocked and I could not see him and just wanted to get there to be sure he was ok and get him out because dj tee was saying "awon eruku mi da" in english "where are my thugs" "don't let him go, he must not leave this place alive" because he claimed dolapo slapped him so he was saying "do you know who I am, how dare you" and he kept on ranting "I'll kill you" "don't let him go, he must not leave here alive" while dj tee was trying to get to him in person. My sister was begging him and telling him "dj tee, he's my brother, please leave him" and to get his attention, she threw an empty fanta can drink at dj tee then he and his boys looked but paid her no attention.

I struggled my way out finally and I saw Dolapo practically running out and dj tee was chasing him and he instructed them to lock the gate and he then said to his boys "efo igo nibeyen, gbogbo igo ti eba ri, efo, ki e gun" in english "break bottles, find him and stab him" and his boys did as instructed and asked for permission to kill him (Dolapo) and dj tee said "yes, stab him". Dj tee found him, tried to beat him but he was being held back, then he saw a bottle on the floor, picked up and broke it, dolapo's female friend saw this and she went to plead with him and he pushed her into a gutter and looked away and was trying to go back to Dolapo with the broken bottle then I started pleading with him and he was shooting me dirty looks and he was saying "ti iwo oba kuro ni waju mi, ma te oju e mole" in english (get out of my way before I hurt you) .Still trying attack Dolapo, I still pleaded with him, then he stabbed my head and just walked away like it was nothing. Soaked in blood, I was still looking for Dolapo but didnt know he had been informed to run because dj tee had broken a bottle and was still looking for him. My sister saw me bleeding and she tried getting me out of the place with help of mr Dele (owner of d location).

As we we're running out, dj tee and his boys were still coming after us with sticks and bottles and dj tee was still saying "kill him don't let him go". We got to the gate and it was locked so they caught up with us, seeing that I was already bleeding, I was ignored and dj tee and his boys then faced my sister (Bolaji) and beat her up. She was pleading and still getting beaten and threatened added that "if she is asked about the incident, she should say I fell on a bottle"Then the mr Dele (owner of the venue) ordered the gatement to open the gate because I had to be rushed to a hospital then we were let out. Dj tee and his boys vandalized a family friends car who came to support as well because he was also pleading with dj tee and his boys to let Dolapo go. I remember dj tee saying "I will kill you, I can do this and get away with it, you are too small to me, do you know who I am in this industry"...

In addition, I am not looking for cheap publicity neither am i trying to slander anybody's name or image, I am from a very respectable home and background and this is known to all. This is just very painful because people are saying all sorts and nobody has an idea of what i'm going through, I've been scared for life whether Dj Tee gets punished for this crime or not, I am not after a pity party but the fact that Dj Tee thinks that he is untouchable and can get away with this is why my family is enraged and will make sure this ends here, and quoting what i wrote on my twitter page earlier "I've never been aggressive about anything in my life and neither do I cause trouble, @adetokunbodjtee, you took advantage of my youth, justice will be done" I'm deeply disappointed if this is how someone who calls himself a public figure acts or treats the public.

'Stupidest idiot in the world' sells safe containing $26,000 on eBay for $122.93

A Tennessee man is regretting his eBay sign-off after selling a safe containing $US26,000 ... for $122.93. "I thought it was empty," he told WMC-TV. "I shook it and I didn't feel anything inside of it, so I figured, well, maybe it's just a locked safe, you know. So I put it on eBay."

Mr Labrecque said he now felt "like the stupidest idiot in the world". And yes, he asked for at least a share of the money back. No dice.

A long email chain with the lucky buyer ended with cut-off quoting Mr Labrecque's own eBay seller policy: "What you see is what you get, no returns, and no money back."

A Bartlett man found thousands of dollars inside an item he bought on eBay.

James Labrecque sold an old safe on eBay for $122.93.

"I made a mistake, you know, that's what it boils down to," said Labrecque. "And it cost me dearly."Labrecque, an eBay user for more than 15 years, said he did not have the combination to the safe and believed it to be just another item to turn around."I thought it was empty," he said. "I shook it and I didn't feel anything inside of it, so I figured, well, maybe it's just a locked safe, you know. So I put it on eBay."Labrecque lives in California. The person who bought the safe lives in Bartlett. Upon receipt, the buyer brought the safe to a welder, who cut it open.Inside the safe was $26,000 in cash.The buyer gave Labrecque a positive review and shared the news."I feel like the stupidest idiot in the world," said Labrecque. "I told my friend, I won the stupidest idiot in the world award the other day, you know. I gave away a safe with $26,000 in it."In a contentious e-mail chain Labrecque provided to Action News 5, he asked for a cut of the cash. The buyer declined, citing Labrecque's seller policy that states, "What you see is what you get, no returns, and no money back."Labrecque said this is different."That's a chunk of change, you know. That's life-altering money," he said. "I mean, if I was in that situation and I found that kind of money and I bought it from someone, I'd say, 'Here man, I found this money. I'll give you half of it.'"

Nigerian Pastor Runs Mad While Praying For A Mad Man

Nigerians living around the Oke-Ado area of Ibadan, Oyo State, as well as shop owners and automobile dealers along Molete road in the town, on Thursday, watched a sad drama involving a pastor in the area and a mad man.

The pastor, whose name was giving as Timothy, according to an eyewitness, got to Ososami junctions of Oke-Ado around 5.20 p.m and went to meet the mentally-deranged man, popularly known as Tunde, who was sitting in front of a building in the area.

According to Semiu, a shop owner around the spot of the incident, the pastor began to read the Bible on sighting the mad man, while he moved closer to him and laid hand on his head. “At a point, there was a hot argument between the duo, which made the pastor to raise his voice as he was offering a deliverance prayer for Tunde, the mad man. The hot prayer lasted for over 15 minutes before another strange drama began,” Semiu said.

Speaking further, another witness, an okada rider, said at a point, the mad man removed the pastor’s hand from his head, adding that “suddenly, a strange spirit got hold of the pastor and he began to remove his cloth. He was naked and laid flat on the ground, speaking a strange language, with foam oozing out of his mouth.”

The mad man, it was gathered, initially left him in this position and sat at some distance away from the pastor, before the duo later sat closer to each other, while onlookers watched the strange drama. As at Thursday night, Pastor Timothy remained in the state of insanity.

BBA STARGAME UPDATE:Goldie Forgives and Forgets Prezzo

Straight from the horse’s mouth came the words: “I have forgiven him but I have also forgotten him.” This was Goldie’s response to Big Brother after he asked about the status of her relationship with Prezzo.

Never did we think that a day would come when the overly clingy Goldie would actually consider parting ways with Prezzo but today it looks like that day has finally dawned. Every woman has a breaking point and it looks like Goldie has finally reached hers. “There’s no point of thinking about him,” said the Nigerian.

It seemed that the biggest issue for the singer was her man’s habit of reminding her of all the things that he has done for her whenever they dispute. “If the day that you are not too happy you are going to count how many times you have bought me perfume, then why do you bother doing it?” she asked Biggie rhetorically.

“The songstress also did not hold back her tongue as she lambasted Prezzo’s tendency to label people with ugly names including her. “No I don’t take that because I don’t give it. For me it’s a wrap.” Whoa… is this really the same fragile woman that had a hysterical fit after Prezzo told her that they were friends?

Earlier in the day the musician sang a medley of songs about breaking free from love.Guess the saying is true when a woman is fed up there's nothing you can do about it.

My Wife Comes Home Without Pant: Ex-Edo Commissioner Tells Court

Husband of a former Commissioner in Edo state, David Erhabor has told Benin High Court 9, that his wife of 15 years once came home without a pant on her.
Erhabor was testifying in a divorce suit instituted by his wife, Florence Igbinigie-Erhabor, a former Commissioner for Women Affairs, under former governor Lucky Igbinedion.

In the suit before Justice Anthony Erhabor, the respondent, (David Erhabor) told the court he never envisaged a broken home in his life.

He said, however, that trouble started after his wife was appointed commissioner by former governor Lucky Igbinedion, when she suddenly resorted to keeping late nights. He added that there was a time the wife abandoned their two children, absconded from home for three days, only to be caught red handed inside a vehicle, romancing and kissing a man who had earlier tear-gassed him.

“There was a day she came back home drunk and without a pant on her. She was in the habit of keeping late night,” Mr. Erhabor told the court.

He further disclosed that it took the intervention of a former Managing Director of Delta State Oil Producing Community Development Commission (DESOPADEC), Wellington Okrika, to resolve some of their numerous squabbles.

Erhabor equally said his wife had at a time demanded for N1 million from him before she could allowed him have sex with her, saying that he ran out from home wearing only pant when he sensed that his wife was about to kill him via hired assassins.

On the position of the petitioner seeking divorcé and the issue of the custody of the children, the respondent opined that the children can always stay with whomever they choose when on holidays. The petitioner, Mrs. Igbinigie-Erhabor, amongst others is asking the court to grant her devoice on the grounds of threat to life, violent assault and infidelity on the part of her husband, Mr. David Irabor, also a former Senior Special Adviser to governor Oserhiemen Osunbor.

The former commissioner who has since 2009 separated from her husband arising from irreconcilable differences, equally demanded that the husband paid her the sum of N150,000 monthly for the upkeep of each for the two children and to pay their school fees.

While under-cross examination by the respondent’s counsel, Akakhomen Austine, the petitioner said besides the embarrassment the rampant violent attacks caused her while serving as commissioner, the husband had also at a time squeezed the children inside a vehicle and threatened to set them ablaze, adding that it took the prompt intervention of members of both families before there was peace.

She said ever since then she took sole responsibility of paying the children’s school fees who currently live with her in her family house.

She said she relocated to her family house when she suspected that her husband was after her life following the invasion of her private residence by robbers on two occasions.

She also accused the husband of having extra-marital affairs with the house maids.

Justice Erhabor adjourned the case till 4 August, 2012 for further hearing.

SHOCKER: Housewife finds used CONDOM in a tin of tomato paste..

Cintia Mayerle and her family had already eaten the meal prepared with the paste when she discovered the rubber condom as she poured the remainder into a storage jar.
Mrs Mayerle, from Rio Grande do Sul, southern Brazil, took the tin of Knorr tomato paste and its contents to the local university for analysis.But she claims Unilever refused to believe that the condom had been found inside their product.
The company told Brazil's Supreme Court that the offending article could not have been inserted into the tin at the factory because the process is fully mechanised.

But the court ruled in Mrs Mayerle's favour and today also awarded her £1,110 for moral damages she claimed to have suffered.

She told Brazil's Globo newspaper: 'It was the most horrible thing that's ever happened to me. I think it will stay in my memory for a very long time.'

Unilever was founded in England in the 1890s and is one of the world's leading manufacturers of consumer goods, with brands including Knorr, Bertolli, Wall's and Flora.

SHOCKER: My Boyfriend had an affair...with my Dad

When I moved into an apartment with University friends, I began to see less and less of my dad.

In my first year of University I met Rob at a friend's party. We bonded straight away over our taste in music and soon became really good friends. Rob was gorgeous- cropped dark hair, broad shoulders and bright green eyes - he looked like a male model!

One day we were both hanging out in my apartment, drinking cheap wine, and I began to feel a bit tipsy. I had just found out that a guy I really liked at my work had just gotten a girlfriend, so I was upset and pouring my heart out to Rob. Without thinking I leaned forward and kissed him.

At first he didn't respond, like he was in shock. He looked really confused, but then kissed me back. We made out for a while, and although he was a bit awkward at first, he soon loosened up and we both seemed to feel very comfortable.

After that night our friendly coffee 'dates' turned into proper romantic dates. Rob was such a gentleman, always holding the door open for me, paying for my meals at restaurants and never acting sleazy.

After a few weeks we started referring to each other as boyfriend and girlfriend. At the age of 20 Rob was my first boyfriend, as I had always been way too shy to date boys in high school.

As he was my first boyfriend, I didn't really know what to expect from the relationship. I knew that all my friends who were my age started sleeping with their boyfriends after a few weeks, but Rob and I had been going out for a couple of months by this stage and he still hadn't made that move. He never kissed me in public, and our make out sessions never lasted very long, but I assumed he just wanted to take things slow.

"I assumed he just wanted to take things slow..."

Our relationship continued this way for many more months, and I began to feel rejected by Rob's lack of physical affection. I never mentioned this to him because by this stage I was very much in love with him and didn't want to start an argument.

Christmas time came around, and Rob invited me to lunch at his parents' house, while I invited him to dinner at my Dad’s house. I was really nervous about meeting his parents for the first time, as he gave me the impression that they were quite strict.

With lunch out of the way, we finally escaped, then headed to my Dad’s house later on for dinner. After having just broken up with his latest partner before Christmas, Dad was currently living by himself, and it was obvious that he was pretty lonely.

When we arrived, Dad was really happy to see me, and very excited to finally meet my boyfriend.

Dad and Rob seemed to click straight away - they both loved to travel, and spent the entire dinner discussing the places they had been and the places they wanted to go. Dad was a high school Art teacher, and Rob was studying to become a teacher, so they had that in common too.

After dinner we moved into the living room to continue chatting. It was late and I soon fell asleep on the couch, but every now and then I would drift in and out of sleeping and Dad and Rob would still be immersed in conversation.

Rob and I didn't end up leaving until well past midnight, and the whole way home he couldn't stop commenting on how cool my Dad was and how young he seemed.

The next week, Dad invited us over again for lunch on New Year’s Day. Again, he and Rob chatted for hours, before Rob had to leave for work. I stayed to help Dad clean up and we started chatting about Uni and work, and of course Rob.

Dad asked if it was serious between us two, and my mind flashed back to my embarrassing attempt to seduce him into my bed the previous night...which of course he rejected. I was feeling very unsure that day so I told Dad it wasn't really that serious yet.

Over the next few weeks we all spent more time together than usual, and eventually it got to the point where it was just Dad and Rob spending time together without me.

"At first I was thrilled that my boyfriend and my Dad were getting along so well, but then it started to get a bit weird."

Rob was coming over to my place less and less, and we starting only seeing each other about once a week. At first Rob would enthusiastically tell me every detail of the time he had spent with my dad- but after a while whenever I asked what they'd gotten up to the day before, he would go quiet and try and change the subject.

It was weird and eventually I checked his phone and found a whole bunch of messages from my Dad saying things like 'I know I only saw you this morning, but I already miss you'. My heart sunk. Never in a million years did I think that my Dad would steal my boyfriend.

I had no proof that they had actually had a physical relationship, but as soon as I saw those messages, I felt so stupid for not realising that Rob was gay. The signs were all there, it was so obvious. He was only with me to please his parents and to stop them from becoming suspicious about his sexuality.

Two years later and I don't speak to Rob anymore, and my relationship with my Dad is still very strained and awkward as we have never spoken about what happened.

I am still at loss to why he is gay.

So pals what will you do?

Finding out you girlfriend had an affair with your mom or your boyfriend had an affair with your dad.

James Ibori’s mistress, Udoamaka Onuigbo released from UK prison

James Ibori’s mistress Udoamaka Onuigbo has been released from a UK prison after serving only two years of her 5 year sentence. Ms Onuigbo was found guilty on a three-count charge of money laundering in June 2010 and was sentenced to five years in prison by Judge Christopher Hardy of a Southwark London Crown Court.

She was released from prison last week and has returned to Nigeria. I guess in the UK 5 means 2? Ibori himself was sentenced to 13 years.

TRUE CONFESSION: I Slept With Our Driver To Give My Husband A Child

I am not a loose woman. I am just a woman who loves her husband very much and didn’t want to lose him. I just did what I had to do to save my marriage even though I feel guilty sometimes.

It was not easy but I slept with my driver so that I could give my husband a child, but instead, God gave me twins, a boy and a girl...

I was married to Philip for eight years. We had no child. “The worst was that I never got pregnant even for a day.” His mother became so impatient that she started breathing down my neck as she gave me no breathing space at all. She moved in to live with us and practically made my life unbearable – in my matrimonial home. I cannot drink water and drop the cup because she must insult me. It got to a point that she stopped eating my food because, according to her, I should be feeding my children so that they would grow healthy and stronger and not her. “Monica, if you had children, you are supposed to be feeding them with all these food so that they would grow healthy and strong. I am getting old so I don’t need all these nonsense you call food. Take them away and give me grandchildren,” she would scream. She also stopped talking to me, however, the only time she talks to me is when she wants to insult me and remind me of how less a woman I was.

Philip and I love each other so much that he stood by me despite all his mother did or said to frustrate me to leave him. We visited different specialists and they all certified us medically alright. I have visited churches, held vigils and even fasted for days, drank various concoctions of varied colours and combinations all in the name of getting pregnant so that my mother-in-law can stop humiliating me yet I couldn’t get pregnant.

At a point, I stopped coming out of my bedroom because it was obvious my mother-in-law had vowed to frustrate me out of her son’s home. Most times, I just stayed in my bedroom and either cries, pray, think and then sleep off because I was scared of his mother confronting me. To make things worse, she sent away the house help because she said, “You don’t need any house help because there are no children to take care of. Take care of your house yourself and stop wasting my son’s hard earned money.”

It was just the three of us living at home, “God, I was always so terrified even when I hear her voice from a distance.” It is so agonizing to say this but my husband usually pleads with me to come out of the room and this makes him feel so sad especially those times I refuse because I don’t want to come face-to-face with his mother. When her troubles became too unbearable, Philip practically threw her out of the house just to make me feel safe and comfortable in my own home.

Even after she had left, I could still hear those insults in my head so I decided to take a bold step – I seduced and slept with our driver, Okon. Okon is a young man in his late 20’s. He is a graduate of Mechanical Engineering but because he could not get a good paying job, he opted to become a driver. I promised to get him a good job if he sleeps with me just once but I never disclosed the reason for this.

However, Okon thought I just wanted to cheat on my husband with him. I planned it during my ovulation so that I could get pregnant, although it was not easy sleeping with another man. I knew I was betraying my husband but I saw it as a necessary action. After a month, I discovered that I was pregnant. So, as promised I got a job for Okon in a friend’s company where he started earning almost N150,000 per month. When I told Philip that I was pregnant, he was so excited. “Sweetheart, God has finally answered our prayers. I am pregnant,” I revealed.

When I was five months pregnant, he informed his mother and she immediately returned to the house. She pampered me like a baby and also took good care of me. I never wanted to do any scan but my mother-in-law insisted. When I finally did the scan, it showed I was pregnant with twins, a boy and a girl. My mother- in-law and husband were extremely happy while I felt much fulfilled. “God thank you for compensating me with a set of twins after eight years of barrenness,” I muttered.

When the twins were born, the girl took ill for some time. It took a while before she fully recovered after several treatments and this got me worried. Philip and I insisted that blood test be carried out on them to determine their blood group and genotype and then came the shocking revelation. The doctor informed us that although their blood groups are both A, however, their genotypes are AS for the girl and AA for the boy meanwhile Philip and I are both AA. I wanted the ground to open and swallow me up because I felt Philip would ask questions but to my surprise, he did not. He just said, “Sweetheart, lets go home. We have had quite a long day, you and my babies need to rest.”

Three months later, he held me closely and said, “Monica, don’t be scared. I don’t want to know who the father of the twins is. I know whatever you did, you did to save our marriage and I am very proud of you. I promise to always love you and my babies. I promise this will be a secret between us. I love you sweetheart. I know we will have our own children someday.” I wept as he wiped my tears with his hands.

I KNOW WHAT I DID WAS WRONG:
But at least my mother-in-law is extremely happy with me, that is all that matters. Although, everyone is happy but I feel guilty that I selfishly used an innocent man to achieve my aim. But before anybody judge me; just put yourself in my shoes and think for a moment what you will do?

The breast restaurant guide: How waitresses offering dinner and a tacky 'view' are keeping diners alive

The waitresses at Twin Peaks wear skimpy plaid tops that accentuate their chests.

In case you didn't catch the joke, the chain's logo is an image of two pointy, snow-capped mountains. And the sports bar doesn't stop there: It promises 'scenic views.'

Twin Peaks owner Randy DeWitt downplays all of that and insists that the appeal of the restaurant goes beyond the obvious. Hearty meals and a focus on making customers feel special, he says, are what really keeps them coming back.

'We believe in feeding the ego before feeding the stomach,' he says. Or as the website of the mountain lodge-themed restaurant states: 'Twin Peaks is about you, `cause you're the man!'

She felt humiliated and reported the matter to the police at Sabo, Yaba Division

Female science teacher, 32, 'had sex with boy, 14, in her car and at hotels'

A female teacher has been arrested after she was accused of having sex with a 14-year-old boy.

Irene Isabel Khan, 32, was said to have carried on the relationship for most of this school year.

Khan teaches science at Imagine School in West Melbourne, Florida.

She allegedly had sex with the pupil in her car and at several hotels in the local area, according to police.

According to the Orlando Sentinel, Khan faces charges of enticing the victim to engage in sexual activity, committing sexual battery while in authority as an agent of the government, lewd or lascivious battery by engaging in sexual activity and lewd or lascivious molestation.

She is currently in the Brevard County Jail.

Imagine is a network of public charter schools spread across the country where the 'vision is for every student to reach his or her full potential and discover the pathways for life-long success'.

Hot Question: Can A Man Ever Recover From False Rape Charges?

A former high school athlete was exonerated on rape charges after his accuser admitted she had lied about the sexual assault.

In 2003, Wanetta Gibson, then a high school sophomore, accused Brian Banks, a star athlete, of rape. On the advice of his counsel, Banks, then 16, pleaded “no contest” to forcible rape, and served 6 years in jail for the alleged crime. After Banks was released from prison, Gibson, who successfully sued her school district for a $1.5 million settlement in conjunction with the rape charges, “friended” Banks on Facebook and later met with him to confess she had lied about being raped. She offered to help Banks clear his name, although she did not agree to repeat the confession to authorities because she feared having to return the settlement money.

Banks plans to file a claim against the state requesting money for the years he spent in prison, according to the Los Angeles Times. His lawyers say he is entitled to $100 a day for every day he spent behind bars under state law. Banks does not have plans to file a claim against Gibson for making false accusations.

“I know it’s best for me to try and move forward in a positive manner for the betterment of me,” Banks said on the Today show. “It hurts no one but myself to hang on to the type of negative energy.”

Police said there is no official investigation into Gibson’s conduct, but officers are “reviewing the matter” and “will be in consultation with the district attorney’s office following the review.”

I’m not a legal scholar, and I am unclear if Banks will ever see a dime from the state for his wrongful incarceration, especially since he pleaded “no contest” to the charges instead of “not guilty.” And while I appreciate his taking the high road in respect to his accuser, I do think if ever there was a time to get dirty-filthy-grimey on anyone, this is it. Clearly Banks is a better man than most. You accuse me of a crime I didn’t commit and I serve time?! Please believe I’m taking you and your mama for everything, including the kitchen sink.

Rape is a tough enough crime to prosecute, and the climate that is created by false accusations – statistically, false rape allegations account for just 2 to 8 percent of all reported rapes – make it just that much harder for women with valid charges to speak up.

What do you think? Is it possible?

Barbie & Ken get married In True Yoruba-..Naija Style

I had to put this up for you guys to see. quite awesome.

You’ve seen all kinds of wedding albums but I bet you haven’t seen one quite like this. You are cordially invited to view the wedding album of the Ken & Barbie dolls (for the sake of this post they shall be referred to as Kunle & Bimbo…LOL!) as they perform their traditional Yoruba wedding ceremony in front of family and friends, complete with colourful aso ebi, decor & an alaga (MC representing Bride’s family).

This unique concept was by photographer Obi Nwokedi and his wife. Obi was inspired to do the shoot primarily out of boredom after coming across French photographer Beatrices’ Barbie and Kens’ wedding shoot, and with some inspiration from the black Barbie shoot on Italian Vogue he decided to create a Nigerian Traditional wedding shoot with black Barbie and Ken. The entire shoot took 5 months to complete because he had to source intricate barbie accessories from around the world. His wife designed all the cute little outfits.
