Ondo workers invade accountant-General’s office, drag him to bank for their salaries
Just three days to Christmas celebration, workers in Ondo State, Thursday forcefully dragged the Account-General (AG), Mr. Felix Ajibokun to bank to begin the process of payment of workers’ salaries.
The aggrieved workers, who earlier picketed the A-G office at Alagbaka Akure, the state capital, were being owed six months salaries.
They were led by their Joint Negotiating Council (JNC) Chairman, Mr. Sunday Adeleye and the State Chairman, Mrs. Bosede Daramola and other union leaders.
Adeleye, while speaking with reporters, said the union leaders recently met Governor Olusegun Mimiko and they both resolved that the workers should be paid a month for them to have money to celebrate the Christmas.

Houseboy who murdered his female boss at her home in Parkview shared a dance video on IG same day he killed her
This guy goes by the name @william_smith1059 on IG and on Tuesday December 20th, he posted a video of himself dancing, same day he allegedly killed his boss, Dayo Adeleke (read here). He was arrested within an hour of the murder. He's in Panti police station right now.
People need to be careful about domestic staff. Dayo, just 33 years old, who friends say was an amazing girl, helped the houseboy who was a refugee and living in a church. She gave him accommodation and a job and this is what she got. Quite sad! See the video after the cut...

72 years ago, the Nazis launched their last great offensive of World War II — here are 13 photos of the Battle of the Bulge
By late 1944, Allied forces had pushed Nazi Germany back in much of Europe, retaking Paris and Rome.
US Army intelligence determined that the thick evergreen forest of the Ardennes in Belgium would be a good place to rest and reorganize combat units, as enemy forces in the area were largely low-quality troops.
The Nazis, however, were preparing a great counteroffensive, forming up 30 crack divisions that would cut the Allied army in two and push for the Belgian port of Antwerp.
On the morning of December 16, 1944, more than 200,000 German troops and almost 1,000 tanks drove into the Ardennes, across an 85-mile stretch of the front line, running from southern Belgium to the middle of Luxembourg.
Stories abound of German paratroopers dropping behind the lines, of English-speaking Nazi troops impersonating Americans, and of massacres of American prisoners of war at Malmedy.

Here’s why you should never buy and hold gold
Buying and holding a commodity like gold may be the most ignorant strategy ever…
That’s a heresy to some gold “experts” who think they can predict its price direction.
But here’s the cold hard truth: The market doesn’t care about what you, I, or any “expert” thinks should happen.
To make money from gold, you’re either on the right side or the wrong side of the price trend.
Today, I’m going to show you how to be “right” when investing in gold…
Bionic eye that restores sight to the blind is made available on the NHS: £150,000 device uses tiny video camera to transmit images to a chip on the back of the eyeball
A bionic eye which restores sight to blind people is to be made available on the NHS for the first time.
The £150,000 system beams images from a tiny video camera to a chip implanted at the back of the eye, allowing patients who have been blind for decades to see again.
Up to 320 people in Britain with retinitis pigmentosa – an inherited disease that causes blindness – could eventually benefit from the Argus II system.
NHS England will fund it for ten patients in a 12-month pilot starting next month. They will then be assessed for a year before officials decide whether to roll the system out more widely in early 2019.
