What Tuface Idibia Has To Say To Nigerian Youths About The 2019 General Elections
Photos: Young man shot by suspected cultists in Benue
By Mod - 9 hours ago - [ Update ]
A young man identified as Achin Vitalis is currently fighting for life after he was shot by gunmen suspected to be cultists inside a vehicle in Makurdi, Benue State capital.
According to a friend of the victim, Sylvester, who shared the story on Facebook, the driver of the bus was the main target. Read his post below:
These days, we no longer board and alight commercial vehicles freely.
We no longer use commercial motorcycles (Okada) freely.
We no longer move around nor go to the market freely.
This is in the name of cult boys looking for the blood of their opposition confraternity members to suck and sometimes steal from innocent people. Some of these operations take place in broad daylight without alteration.
My bother, friend and former neighbour ACHIN VITALIS was shut in a bus by some group of boys.
He was not the target but the driver was.
This guy is an innocent fellow who can't even harm an ant but he took bullets for a guy whom he know nothing about.
I wonder why a brother/sister would gladly sell his/her soul to the devil.
I also wonder if this cult thing have life insurance.
My brother and sister please resist the temptation of being butchered on the street like a chicken.
Those who kill by sword will be killed by the sword.

INEC recruitment: NYSC issues warning to corps members ahead of 2019 elections
INEC recruitment: NYSC issues warning to corps members ahead of 2019 elections
The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), has warned corps members to be non-partisan in their conduct in the forthcoming general elections in Gombe state.
Mr David Markson, the state NYSC Coordinator, said this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Gombe on Thursday.
Markson said the corps members had been successfully trained on the successful conduct of the election.
He advised them to be non-partisan and of good behaviour during the election as well as to adhere strictly to the stipulated guidelines.
“We all must be nonpartisan and the NYSC band must not by any chance be used by individuals or group for political rally.
“As the general election draws nearer, the NYSC field officers have been directed to educate corps members on what is expected of them during the exercise.
“In Gombe state, we have successfully trained corps members and reminded them of the existing Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between us and the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
“The NYSC has collaborated well with INEC and conducted successful elections in the past and this time around we are ready to conduct a successful exercise,” he said.
He further urged traditional and religious leaders to enlighten their followers on the need to treat corps members fairly to enable them conduct a successful election.

Rap superstar Cardi B blasts shutdown in viral rant
Rap superstar Cardi B blasts shutdown in viral rant
By Mod - 8 minutes ago - [ Update ]
Rap’s woman of the moment, Cardi B, unleashed a profanity-laced rant, blasting Donald Trump and the US government’s shutdown, leaving some Democratic lawmakers wondering whether to promote the clip touching on their talking points.

Trump under fresh scrutiny over relationship with Putin
The Bronx-born artist with some 40 million Instagram followers posted the video late Wednesday, denouncing Trump’s callback of furloughed federal employees to complete vital government tasks without pay as the shutdown drags into its fourth week.
“Hey y’all,” begins the Grammy-nominated superstar known for hits like “Bodak Yellow” and “I Like It.”
“Trump is now ordering — as in summonsing — federal government workers to go back to work without getting paid,” she says in the clip, which has racked up more than 10 million views.
“Now, I don’t want to hear y’all mother fuckers talkin’ bout, ‘oh but Obama shut down the government for 17 days,'” she says, referencing a 2013 funding gap.
“Yeah bitch! For health care! So your grandma could check her blood pressure.”
Democratic senators Brian Schatz from Hawaii and Chris Murphy of Connecticut puzzled over whether to promote the viral video — but ultimately decided against it.
“Guys, I’m still holding my breath,” tweeted top Senate Democrat Chuck Schumer of New York. “Are you gonna RT Cardi B or not?”
“We decided not to do it,” Schatz tweeted. “Wouldn’t be senatorial.”
Acknowledging that many of her fans might not be following the shutdown saga, which is persisting due to a standoff between the US president and Democrats in Congress, Cardi B said “we really need to take this serious.”
“Our country is in a hellhole right now,” the 26-year-old said. “All for a fucking wall.”
Trump insists he won’t agree to open the government until Congress signs off on his demand for $5.7 billion to build a wall along the border with Mexico, which he argues is needed to prevent illegal immigration.
“This is crazy,” said Cardi B, who was born to a Dominican father and Trinidadian mother. “I feel like we need to take some action
Russian Detains Model Claiming Trump Secrets
Russia Detains Model Claiming Trump Secrets

Russia on Thursday detained a Belarusian model who claimed she had evidence of Russian efforts to help Donald Trump win office, witnesses told AFP.
Anastasia Vashukevich, known by her pen-name Nastya Rybka, was held for questioning at a Moscow airport on Thursday evening after she was deported from Thailand as part of a group convicted of participating in a “sex training course,” other passengers on the flight told AFP.
Russian authorities detained her and several others including Alex Kirillov, a self-styled Russian seduction guru, witnesses said.
Plain-clothes officials led away four of the group including Vashukevich and Kirillov, a woman who gave her name as Kristina told AFP after emerging at Sheremetyevo airport arrivals.
Describing herself as Kirillov’s wife, Kristina said she heard the group shouting and asking for an explanation of “why they were being detained” and saying they were suspected of recruiting for prostitution, a crime punishable by up to six years in jail.
A law enforcement source told TASS state news agency that four including Vashukevich and Kirillov were detained at the airport over recruiting for prostitution.
Vashukevich was held with several others in a police raid last February in the sleazy seaside resort of Pattaya.
Between salacious and bizarre
In a case that veered between salacious and bizarre, Vashukevich said she had travelled to Thailand after becoming embroiled in a political scandal with Russian aluminium tycoon Oleg Deripaska — a one-time associate of Trump’s disgraced former campaign director Paul Manafort.
She then set tongues wagging by promising to reveal “missing puzzle pieces” regarding claims the Kremlin aided Trump’s 2016 presidential election victory.
But the material never surfaced and critics dismissed the claims as a publicity stunt.
In the risque Pattaya seminar led by Kirillov, some participants wore shirts that said “sex animator” — though one person at the time described it as more of a romance and relationship course.
Vashukevich pleaded guilty alongside seven others to multiple charges, including solicitation and illegal assembly at a Pattaya court on Tuesday, which ordered the group be deported.
Kirillov, who has served as a quasi-spokesman for the mostly Russian group, told reporters as they arrived at court Tuesday that he believed they were set up.
“I think somebody ordered (our arrest)… for money,” he said.
Vashukevich looked somber as she entered the courthouse and did not respond to questions from the media.
The book about seducing oligarchs
On Thursday afternoon, Vashukevich and the majority of the convicted were put on an Aeroflot flight for Moscow, bringing to an end the Thai side of a baffling case.
Thailand’s immigration chief Surachate Hakparn said the last of the group would leave the country later that evening.
They were also blacklisted from returning to Thailand.
It was unclear what would happen to them on arrival in Moscow but as a Belarusian citizen, Vashukevich was expected to transit to Belarus.
Vashukevich, who has more than 120,000 followers on Instagram and penned a book about seducing oligarchs, already faces legal problems in Russia.
Deripaska won an invasion of privacy lawsuit against her and Kirillov in July after a video apparently filmed by the model showed the tycoon vacationing with an influential Russian deputy prime minister at the time.
“I don’t think she wants to get out in Moscow,” a Russian friend in Thailand who helped with the case told AFP on Thursday.
Both Washington and Moscow publicly shrugged off Vashukevich’s story, which the US State Department described as “bizarre”.
Kremlin-connected Deripaska and Manafort, Trump’s ex-campaign manager, did business together in the mid-2000s.
Manafort has since been convicted in the US of financial crimes related to political work he did in Ukraine before the 2016 election as well as witness tampering.
