Nigerian Officials Banned 'Half Of A Yellow Sun' Movie Because Of Biafran War

The most awaited movie of this year in Nigeria, “Half of a Yellow Sun,” has been banned by the country's film censorship board because the movie partially takes place during the Biafran War.

According to the director, Biyi Bandele, the movie scheduled to open in Nigeria last Friday was essentially banned as the country’s film censorship board has refused to issue the movie a certificate. Earlier, Half of a Yellow Sun's premier has been postponed in Nigeria.

Though, the movie which is unites some of Nigeria’s major cultural figures of civil war (also known as the Biafran War) is already showing in Britain and is scheduled to open in the United States next month. It also had its premiere last year at the Toronto International Film Festival. And Nigerian actor Chiwetel Ejiofor, who starred in the Academy Award-winning film “12 Years a Slave” is one of the stars in the movie.

The censorship board could not be reached for comment about the film, but Mr. Bandele said officials seemed to be “jittery about its content.” He continued: “That it deals with the Biafran War (from 1967 to 1970). That it might incite people to violence.” Even today a remnant of the old Igbo independence movement persists in the country’s south, which is largely Christian. And in the north, where Muslims are in the majority, many people attribute the Nigerian Army’s frequent large-scale killings of civilians, in its campaign against the Islamist terrorist group Boko Haram, to southerners’ lingering fury over their treatment during the long-ago war.

70-year-old HIV Positive Man Allegedly Rapes 13-year-old Girl

A 70-year-old man, Thursday, allegedly raped a 13-year-old girl in Barkinladi Local Government Area of Plateau State.

The Plateau State Commissioner of Police, Chris Olakpe, confirmed this on Saturday to journalists in Jos, the state capital.

Mr. Olakpe said the suspect, who is HIV positive, was arrested, following a tip off by neighbours; and brought to the state headquarters of the command.

"A son of the landlord of the suspect, suspected the act of the 70-year-old man, and alerted the neighborhood," the police chief said, saying that led to the suspect's arrest.

The suspect reportedly admitted to the crime and disclosed his HIV status. He then pleaded for mercy. PREMIUM TIMES learnt that residents of the area had gathered to lynch the suspect, but for the intervention of the police.

The Police Commissioner said the suspect was being interrogated by the police; while the victim has been taken to a hospital in the state for treatment. Mr. Olakpe, who spoke via a telephone conference, said the suspect would be prosecuted after investigations.

Wike Is Not Intimidated By ASUP's Planned ‘Massive Protests’

The Supervising Minister of Education, Nyesom Wike, has reacted to the 'massive protests' planned by striking polytechnic lecturers for the next week, tagged them as 'mere propaganda'.

He also added that such an action by the Academic Staff Union of Polytechnics (ASUP) to draw Federal Government's attention to the lingering strike would not be in the interest of Poly students.

According to the position of the FG, over 90% of the demands of the polytechnic lecturers have been met. The only outstanding issue is that of salary arrears. ASUP can't accept the payment in two instalments.

However, ASUP leader, Chibuzor Asomugha, described Wike's claim that about 90% of the lecturers' demands had been met as a "deliberate denial of reality" and mixing up of facts.

National Confab: There Will Be Consensus On Key Issues — Osoba

Former Governor of Ogun State and Chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Chief Segun Osoba, yesterday, said the north was afraid of devolution of power from the centre due to alleged fears that they would be short-changed in the scheme of things.

He however, assured that there was no need for any section of the country to be afraid of devolution of powers, since the present system of government in the country had failed, indicating ''that an alternative system is required to harness the full potentials of the country and deliver better and quality standard of living to the people.''

Osoba said that devolution of power from the centre was the only way to get the country back on the track of progress and development. The former governor spoke during the N850 million fund-raising dinner for the Building of Editor's Plaza held at Transcorp Hilton Hotel, Abuja yesterday. The Federal Government donated N50 million towards the project.

This was even as President Goodluck Jonathan described the Nigerian press as one of the freest in the world. According to him, ''such fear does not arise since the present system of government being practised in the country had failed the people of Nigeria.'' He also said that there will be consensus on some key issues at the ongoing national conference contrary to popular belief, that such feat would not be achieved.

Osoba, who was giving highlights of the proceedings at the conference said, ''though, some groups from the North are afraid of regionalism, permutations and body movements among the delegates show that they may no longer need 75 per cent votes to agree on some key issues like devolution of power from the centre and the system of government.''

He assured those opposed to regionalism and devolution of power that the National Conference would ensure ''that the present indices for revenue sharing is sustained, so that nobody would feel short-changed.'' His words, "About 75 per cent of us in that conference know ourselves, and we are sure that there will not be the need for 75 per cent consensus to arrive at certain key decisions. I know virtually everybody in that conference, so do many others.

''We have done our home work. I tell you, there will be partly consensus for some key issues on devolution and some other key issues because most of us believe there must be devolution of power. Most of us have been in government before and what we ask is, why should somebody sit in Abuja and determine how primary education in Yobe, Yenogoa and, in Benin will be run and which teacher should teach the local language? ''For us, that is an impossibility because primary school education has nothing to do with the Federal Government; primary education is cultural.

Arik Air Apologizes For Horrendous Treatment of Passengers On New York Bound Flight W3107

Arik Air Flight W3107 was a nightmare for the dozens of travelers who boarded that flight back on March 31st 2014. It was late, and adding insult to injury, it was also a flight noted for a lack of air conditioning.

Arik Air officials, who had earlier claimed on twitter that the videos were doctored, issued a statement saying, essentially, they are sorry.

To all guest who traveled on flight W3107 (from Lagos, Nigeria to JFK, New York) on 31st March 2014, the statement reads: " Arik Air offers an unconditional apology, for the inconvenience and discomfort caused by both the 55 minute delayed flight departure, and the failure of the airplane’s air-conditioning system prior to said departure.

“In this regard, the experienced schedule delay was a result of complications related to the cargo loading process as managed by Arik Air’s contracted ground-handling agent,” the public statement goes on to add.

“Unfortunately, whilst efforts were rightly being expended to overcome the cargo loading difficulties, the backup air conditioning unit (which should have been provided by our ground handling agent,) was declared unserviceable and thus unavailable for use. Upon resolution of the cargo loading difficulties, the air-conditioning system was finally restored as the aircraft prepared for immediate departure under its own engine power.”

While the explanation as to what occurred on that jet plane is clear as it stood grounded on the airport tarmac, for many on board, the story paints only part of the picture for the inconvenienced passengers sweating away on a flight delayed for over an hour.

A MUST READ: 10 Sexy Ways To Say 'I'm Sorry'

Relationships are meant to be fun but sometimes it turns out to be otherwise especially when both partners have issues to resolve.

So, you have had a nasty fight with your significant other? And now you want to redeem yourself. Fret not! Help is at hand!

Below are 10 sexy ways to say sorry:

1. Do that thing where you kiss them and act like you’re stuck. Even say, “I’m stuck! And I won’t unstick until you accept my apology!” It will sound hilarious because your lips will be… stuck!

2. Write him or her a ridiculous poem. Make sure it rhymes.Tip: Here are 6 words that rhyme with “sorry”: gharry, chary, sari, starry, safari, Atari.3. Make a list of the top 100 reasons you love them. What’s not on the list: the fact that they are forgiving. What is on the list: their sexy voice, how their eyes look when they’re tired, how hot they look shirtless while they’re making you a bloody mary… The more odd, tiny and specific, the better.

 

4. Stick a picture of you two together in their bag and write on it “I LOVE YOU” — or the secret password you two have for “I love you,” or your nickname for them, or a reference to a random inside joke they probably had forgotten about but will laugh at now.

Nigeria's Nollywood: Why Nigerian Movies Still Not That Good As Their Overseas Competitors

A 15-second drum roll and the title of the film, "Deceptive Heart," comes crashing onto the screen in a groovy 1970s font.

In this photo taken Wednesday, Sept, 18. 2013, Nollywood actors perform a scene in Lagos, Nigeria.

Less than 10 minutes into the Nollywood movie, the heart of plot is revealed: A woman has two boyfriends and doesn't know what to do.

The story moves as quickly as the film appears to have been shot. Some scenes are shaky, with cameras clearly in need of a tripod, and musical montages are often filled with pans of the same building.

Most Nollywood movies are made in less than 10 days and cost about $25,000.

Fueled by low budgets and whirlwind production schedules, Nigeria's film industry has grown by some estimates over the past 20-plus years into the most prolific on Earth, pushing out more movies a year than Hollywood in California or Bollywood in Mumbai, India.

Hollywood tends to portray Africa as an exotic land of deserts and giraffes, populated by huddling masses, according to Samuel Olatunje, a Nollywood publicist known in the business as "Big Sam".

Nigerian movies are popular because they portray African people more accurately, Big Sam explains outside his single-room Lagos office.

Woman Suffered So Hard 5 Day Erection, She Couldn't Even Stand

A woman suffered a painful, five-day erection of the clitoris that left her barely able to stand.
 

The 29-year-old had been taking medication to boost her libido, but had recently upped the dose, according to a medical report of her case.

She was part of a clinical trial group taking the anti-depressant medications wellbutrin (bupropion) and trazodone, the website LiveScience reports.

When she began experiencing pain and swelling in her genital area, she stopped taking the drugs - but the symptoms got worse and worse.

The woman was suffering from a condition called priapism. This usually affects men but in rare cases, can affect women too.

The condition is where a penis or clitoris becomes engorged with blood, causing a painful, long-lasting erection.

It is caused by a blockage of the blood vessels that empty the penis.

Seun Kuti Under Fire Over Choice Of Daughter’s Name

Seun Kuti, son of late Afro-beat king, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti who recently welcomed a new baby with his girlfriend/ back-up dancer, Yetunde Ademiluyi in December 2013 is under heavy criticism over the choice of his daughter's name.



A low profile naming ceremony was held for the baby on Saturday, February 8th at his residence in Ikeja, Lagos and Seun's beautiful daughter  was christened ‘Ifafunmike’ which means “A child gotten from a deity”.
This action has not gone down well with many of his fans. A fan who pleaded anonymity said that what Seun did is an indication that there is more to it than meets the eye.

“Why will Seun go ahead and name his new-born baby ‘Ifafunmike’? It is rather absurd and shows that there is a spiritual undertone to the event. It is ungodly. His contemporaries who have been getting married and delivering babies have not done this kind of thing. I am disappointed,” said the fan.

Uzoenyi Returns From SA Without A Deal

Super Eagles team B midfielder Ejike Uzeoenyi returned from South Africa where he helped the Eagles to a third place finish at the the CAF African Nations Championship without tying down a deal with any of the South African premier league clubs that wanted him.

Uzoenyi was voted the most valuable player of the tournament after a thrilling performance. He had stayed back hoping to make a switch from Rangers of Enugu.

Emmanuel Adebayor Reveals Extent Of Villas Boas Row

Tottenham Hotspur striker Emmanuel Adebayor has revealed how he criticised former Spurs manager Andre Villas Boas in front of teammates.

The Togolese forward was exiled from Villas Boas' side during a poor run of form which eventually led to the Portuguese's sacking in December.

Adebayor disagreed with Villas Boas's tactics and says he made his point during a training session. "I told him: 'Your ideas will not help the team'," the 29-year-old said.

"I have had a chance to play for a lot of top clubs in my career and I know how it's supposed to be. "I told him one v one and he didn't want to listen, and then I told him in front of the group.

"Maybe it was a mistake. Maybe it was a good one, maybe it was a bad one. I don't know, but I spoke my mind." The former Arsenal and Manchester City striker has since returned to the starting line-up under new Tottenham boss Tim Sherwood and scored six goals in 10 matches - a run he puts down to a desire to prove doubters wrong.

The Sex Life Of Pastors: Wives Open Up

You see him on Sunday morning well dressed in his three piece suit and looking freshly anointed. The picture you see is that of a cherub, who has just arrived from the heavens with a message for the people and would be back there soon after.

Once he starts to preach, the congregation is overwhelmed with the awe he exudes. Because this is all they know about him, some followers believe that is all about the pastor.

Ask some Christians and they will bet their life savings that their pastors have never visited the toilet, not to talk of having sex. They base their judgement on the fact that usually, a pastor is seen praying, preaching or counselling; so the average congregant believes he must be a super being, who never answers to any call of nature - especially sex.

The pastor is perhaps the most misunderstood and over-rated being on earth today. He is rated as a semi-god, incapable of enjoying the pleasures that life presents him. This is so because he rarely talks to his adherents about other areas of his life.
