MMM Nigeria Ponzi scheme yet to pay Nigerians after return

72 hours after its surprise return, popular Ponzi scheme MMM Nigeria is still yet to pay its investors according to reports.

The Cable claims that investors of MMM have not yet been paid as their accounts are still frozen. Kolade Ogunwande who spoke to the online news site said he invested N100,000 in November 2016, and also referred two people to the Ponzi scheme.

On Friday, January 13, 2017, his N100,000 had appreciated to N214,000. When he placed a request to withdraw his money he was not paid.

“They have not paid me anything, but, they said we should be wait patiently to be matched with participants willing to invest in MMM. I have no choice than to be optimistic,” Ogunwande told The Cable.

A woman named Lara Makanjuola also invested N100,000 in MMM Nigeria and is also facing the same problem of getting her money out.

Rolls-Royce apologises in court after settling bribery case

The engineering giant Rolls-Royce has apologised after it was found to have paid bribes including a luxury car and millions of pounds’ worth of cash to middlemen to secure orders in Indonesia, Russia and China and other countries.

Britain’s leading multinational manufacturer made the admissions on Tuesday at the high court in London, a day after it was revealed that it would pay £671m in penalties to settle long-running corruption allegations. In a statement read out in court, the firm said it “apologised unreservedly for the conduct which has been uncovered”.

The settlement was reached with investigators from three countries – the UK, US and Brazil – who five years ago started to scrutinise allegations that the firm had hired middlemen to pay bribes to win contracts.

Richard Whittam, a QC for the Serious Fraud Office, detailed the findings of what he said was the “largest individual investigation conducted by the SFO to date”. Whittam told the court that Rolls-Royce had admitted it had failed to stop corrupt payments in Nigeria and Indonesia, and had paid bribes in Russia. Other illicit payments were made in Thailand and Nigeria.

A string of points within the agreement between the firm and the SFO – called a deferred prosecution agreement – revealed Rolls-Royce’s systemic and long-running use of intermediaries. In Indonesia, Rolls-Royce employees admitted paying $2.25m (£1.8m) and gifting a Rolls-Royce Silver Spirit car to an individual. The payment was made in order that the individual would “show favour to Rolls-Royce for a contract” to supply Trent engines to Garuda Airways, Whittam said.

peppers associated with 13% reduction in total mortality

Going back for centuries, peppers and spices have been thought to be beneficial in the treatment of diseases, but only one other study — conducted in China and published in 2015 — has previously examined chili pepper consumption and its association with mortality. This new study corroborates the earlier study’s findings.

Using National Health and Nutritional Examination Survey (NHANES) III data collected from more than 16,000 Americans who were followed for up to 23 years, medical student Mustafa Chopan ‘17 and Professor of Medicine Benjamin Littenberg, M.D., examined the baseline characteristics of the participants according to hot red chili pepper consumption.

They found that consumers of hot red chili peppers tended to be “younger, male, white, Mexican-American, married, and to smoke cigarettes, drink alcohol, and consume more vegetables and meats . . . had lower High Density Lipo-protein (HDL)-cholesterol, lower income, and less education,” in comparison to participants who did not consume red chili peppers. They examined data from a median follow-up of 18.9 years and observed the number of deaths and then analyzed specific causes of death.

MOM KILLED HERSELF BECAUSE SHE FELT UGLY AFTER BOOB JOB

A high-flying businesswoman killed herself because she 'felt ugly' after getting a boob job , an inquest heard.

Tragic mum-of-two Rebecca Hoare, 38, developed an anxiety disorder - and could not stand the way she looked.Indeed, the inquest was told she felt “ugly and disfigured” after undergoing the surgery on her breasts at a private clinic - after splitting up with a boyfriend who had made negative comments about her body.

According to Daily Mirror, she was later diagnosed with a devastating condition called body dysmorphia that gives sufferers a distorted view of how they look.

The company insisted the operation had gone well but had offered another one free as a goodwill gesture.

But Mrs Hoare was so unhappy she hanged herself at home at the family’s off-road driving centre in Bradford, West Yorkshire

SEE THE LEKKI GAY SEX ASSAULT SKIT THAT HAS GOT NIGERIANS TALKING

A debate so heated that prominent gay rights activists like Bisi Alimi and Nigeria’s first openly gay pastor, Reverend Jide Macaulay, have started a petition that aims to make Ogusbaba take down the video from the internet to stop its circulation.
 The activists are also demanding that Ogusbaba should apologise to the Nigerian LGBT community for joking with a very sensitive issue of concern. The video, titled “The Lekki Gay,” by comedian Ogusbaba, depicts a gay man being visited by a friend whom he finds attractive but who brings two other men to the bedroom to threaten him with sexual assault with a banana, large cucumber, pawpaw and then a large piece of yam oiled with olive oil.

Bahrain has executed three men found guilty of killing three policemen, including an Emirati officer, prosecuters in the island kingdom said.

The three faced the firing squad on Sunday, a week after a court upheld their death sentences over a bomb attack in March 2014, the prosecution said in a statement carried by the official BNA state news agency.

The executions came a day after demonstrations broke out across Shia villages following rumours that the authorities were going to execute the three men.

They are the first in six years in the Gulf kingdom, according to London-based human rights group, Reprieve, which had warned on Saturday against the move.

SpaceX successfully launches first rocket since explosion

A SpaceX Falcon rocket blasted off from California on Saturday, returning the company to flight for the first time since a fiery launchpad explosion in September.

The launch of the 230-foot (70-meter) rocket from Vandenberg Air Force Base at 9:54 a.m. PST (1754 GMT) aimed to deliver 10 satellites into orbit for Iridium Communications Inc.

SpaceX’s founder and entrepreneur Elon Musk’s ambitious flight plans had been grounded since the Sept. 1 explosion during fueling ahead of a pre-flight test in Florida

About 10 minutes after Saturday’s launch, the first stage of the rocket, which had separated from the rest of craft, successfully touched down on a platform in the Pacific Ocean, a feat previously accomplished by four other returning Falcon rockets. SpaceX intends to reuse its rockets to cut costs.

The mission will test changes implemented by Space Exploration Technologies Corp, known as SpaceX, since the launchpad explosion.

Why I Actually Treat Ladies Like Dogs - Pretty Mike

Pretty Mike

The Lagos socialite, Mike Nwogu, popularly called Pretty Mike, has opened up on why he chained some girls on a dog leash and took them to different events in Lagos recently.

The controversial Pretty Mike who owns Club Uno in Lagos said he did it to advocate for women who “have no voice.”

He said: “For me, there is a mission statement. I would give you some examples to explain the mission statement behind my action. I would not call any names but I am sure we all know about an Emir that was given a 15-year-old as a wife. To me, that is putting women on a leash. We talk about traditional rulers that marry underage women, that is putting women on the leash.
