ahoo Yahoo Boys Hit Malaysia To Sell Kidney For 10 Million Naira

As we are all aware of the decline in income from what was once termed Yahoo Yahoo, internet scam the perpetrators have moved on to a more challenging, but lucrative and profitable scamming pattern called Yahoo Plus, and for those who don’t know what the aforementioned phrase means, it is simply the use of diabolical means to enhance their chances of collecting money and other material things from their victims.
However, as time has moved, so has contentment also grown slimmer amongst most street boys whose claim to affluence and wealth can only be traced to Yahoo Plus. And so, they moved on yet again to more risky ventures like traveling abroad to engage in one form of scam or the other. However, taking a deeper look at the implications of Yahoo Plus, Yahoo and even more desperate measures like Yahoo Plus Plus one would still be able to breath a sigh of relief when compared to the latest form of act that has just breezed into town. Information available to this magazine, revealed a new act being engaged in by Yahoo boys in town.
According to the information, Nigerian Yahoo boys only recently have taken to storming Malaysia to sell their Kidney. Investigations by this magazine revealed that this is the most recent form of Yahoo in town. It is a known fact that the demand for Kidney in most Western and advanced countries can hardly meet the supply, as most people on the sick bed even die before they find a donor. It is in a bid to multiply the supply of donors that young Yahoo boys are now being toasted to fly to Malaysia to sell their kidney and make quick, clean and quite money.
However, if only the money is that easy to make, it would have been better because informed sources have revealed that it is a common thing to find Yahoo boys storming Malaysia saying they are traveling without their parent’s knowing what the trip is all about and most times it is basically to go and sell their Kidney. Last week Thursday, it was weeping and wailing in the family house of a resident of Ojodu Berger, as investigation revealed that a certain youngman who just returned from Malaysia had just lost his life. Initially, it was a big shock to the family of the deceased, as they wondered what could have led to the death of the young promising chap who was hale and hearty just a week before. However, medical investigation by the family proved that he had actually been involved in an operation and it was only when the family of the deceased pressured one of his close friends that he revealed what had actually transpired.
While this might be shocking, it is indeed true because not less than ten yahoo boys have reported dropped dead from the knife of the surgeon, as a result. Reacting on the issue which seems to be on the rise, a medical doctor who attended to the deceased when he was brought to the hospital was reported to have revealed that although a normal human being has two Kidney, it is common knowledge that he can survive with one and this knowledge seems to be what is driving boys into this dastardly act all in the name of money. Speaking further, he revealed that for one who had undergone such a major operation some specific medications are prescribed while a lot of bed rest is also important.
However, typical of Yahoo boys, the moment they get into the country from their Malaysian trip, they simply embark on crazy fun, clubbing every day partying, buying cars and living some of the most reckless life styles. This stress has been attributed to the cause of death of most of these boys.  The case of the family residing in Ojodu was said to have elicited a lot of hue and cry as boys were seen chasing bike men as they mourned the deceased. Observers of the incident revealed that perhaps if the authorities of the Malaysian Embassy start asking questions before issuing visa to these young boys it will go along way in curbing this dastard situation. Concerned Nigerians have therefore urged Nigerian government and Nigerian Embassy in Malaysia to make spirited moves to stem the dangerous trend

‘Why I Fought Patience Ozokwor’ – Mercy Johnson

Actress Mercy Johnson who was reportedly in a showdown with her older colleague, Patience Ozokwor on location in Asaba few weeks back, has blamed her uncontrollable outburst on Ozokwor’s repeated utterances referring to her as an ‘ashawo’- a hoochie.
In a telephone interview, Mercy recounted her side of the story to NET. She noted that Patience Ozokwor was given a revealing clothe to wear on that location, apparently to depict a character in the movie that was in the making and Patience allegedly refused the outfit, stating that she is not Mercy Johnson, not an ‘ashawo’.
“I’m not a prostitute. I don’t like the name. I told her I didn’t like it”, Mercy told NET. According to her, the faceoff was escalated when Mama Gee refused to stop calling her by unpleasant name.
By last week, there were unconfirmed reports that the Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN) might take a disciplinary action against Mercy Johnson and Patience Ozokwor but when NET contacted the AGN president, Segun Arinze via SMS, he simply stated that the issue has been sorted out in-house.
The text message read “Hello sir, I just want to know if the AGN is taking any disciplinary action against Mercy Johnson and Patience Ozokwor”.
 “No it’s sorted out. Thanks”, he replied. Arinze would not comment further.
Arinze, sources said, has instructed both parties not to make any further comments on the matter.

Witches deploy 500 members to Abuja for Jonathan’s inauguration

The Witches and Wizards Association of Nigeria (WITZAN), has deployed 500 witches to Abuja and other parts of Ahead of Nigeria to prevent any tragic occurrence and ensure peaceful inauguration on May 29.

According to its national co-ordinator, Dr Okhue Iboi, the decision was taken after an emergency meeting at Zuma rock, Niger State. WITZAN also warned President Goodluck Jonathan to take adequate security as bad  people and disgruntled politicians are planning to cause problems.

Iboi, however, disclosed that the nation would soon have a respite from the people currently throwing bombs all over the places as they would be exposed: “We are going to expose those sponsoring bomb blasts in the country after May 29.  They have been caged already. We are going to use our power to cause them to come out and confess their misdeeds. Nigerians would be surprised at how the saboteurs would be exposed.”

He said it was revealed to the witches as far back as last year that no other candidate except Jonathan would rule the nation. The association which also predicted the failure of both former military president Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida and vice president Atiku Abubakar in their presidential quests also disclosed that Jonathan would serve his four-year tenure at the end of which Nigerians would be begging him to go for another term because he has been chosen by God to lead the nation.

Iboi, however, warned Jonathan to beware of sycophants, while warning the incoming ministers and advisers to co-operate with the president and discharge their duties with dedication. The witches warned former Head of State, Major-General Muhammadu Buhari (retd) to stop wasting his time pursuing the presidency:

“Buhari should stop wasting his time because his time is past. He can never rule the nation again.  His time is gone.” The incoming National Assembly will deliver.  This is the time Nigerians will know that they have real legislators.
“Some people look at us as if we are evil minded people.  Not all witches are bad.  Our own type of witchcraft is progressive. We are willing to intervene in the affairs of the country anytime the government decides to seek our counsel.  We have the solutions to bring lasting peace to the country.  Witches and wizards in the country are ready to help restore Nigeria’s lost glory.

“We saw June 12 crisis long before it happened and we warned the late Chief M.K.O. Abiola but he ignored us.  Abiola would have been Nigeria’s president but some of us decided to punish him over the role he played in scuttling the late Chief Obafemi Awolowo presidential ambition.  We warned him not to waste his time and life.  This was reported in some national dailies.  We also dealt with the late General Sani Abacha for the execution of the late Ken Saro-Wiwa.”

Prosecutor requests arrest warrants for Gadhafi, two others

Gadhafi charged with war crimes

STORY HIGHLIGHTS

• Prosecutor: There is evidence Gadhafi committed crimes against humanity
• Gadhafi's son and brother-in-law may also face arrest warrants
• The evidence will be presented to a panel of judge

The Hague, Netherlands (CNN) -- The chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court on Monday requested arrest warrants for Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi, his son and his brother-in-law, saying there is evidence Gadhafi has committed crimes against humanity in his efforts to maintain hold over the country in a months-long battle.
Luis Moreno-Ocampo said his office "gathered direct evidence about orders issued by Moammar Gadhafi himself, direct evidence of Saif al-Islam (Gadhafi) organizing the recruitment of mercenaries and direct evidence of the participation of (Abdullah) al-Sanussi in the attacks against demonstrators." Al-Sanussi, the brother-in-law, is Gadhafi's head of intelligence and chief enforcer.
"The evidence shows that civilians were attacked in their homes; demonstrations were repressed using live ammunition; heavy artillery was used against participants in funeral processions, and snipers placed to kill those leaving the mosques after the prayers," Moreno-Ocampo said.
"The evidence shows that persecution is still ongoing in the areas under Gadhafi control," he said. "Gadhafi's forces prepare lists with names of alleged dissidents. They are being arrested, put into prisons in Tripoli, tortured and made to disappear."
Authorities believe Gadhafi "personally ordered" attacks on unarmed civilians, he said, and al-Sanussi is "his right-hand man, the executioner."
Gadhafi has "absolute authority" in Libya, Moreno-Ocampo told reporters. "... It's a crime to challenge Gadhafi's authority and he used his authority to commit the crimes."
Gadhafi and his inner circle plotted to suppress any challenge to his authority, the statement said.
It was the first time the International Criminal Court has taken action while a conflict was ongoing. It is the culmination of an investigation that began February 15, when demonstrations against Gadhafi's regime accelerated. Since then, war has erupted in Libya as the strongman has tried to stay firm on his grip on power.
"Gadhafi ruled Libya through fear," Moreno-Ocampo said Monday, "and I think Libyans are losing that fear."
Libyan Deputy Foreign Minister Khalid Kaim on Sunday dismissed a possible ICC action, saying that because Libya is not a signatory of the Rome Statute -- which established the ICC -- the government will "just ignore it."
The investigation took investigators to 11 countries and included the review of 1,200 documents and interviews with about 50 witnesses.
Moreno-Ocampo has to present all his evidence to a panel of judges before the court in The Hague can decide whether to issue arrest warrants. The panel can reject his request, accept it or ask for more evidence, he said.
A report issued earlier this month by Moreno-Ocampo said the alleged crimes against humanity include the alleged commission of rape by Gadhafi's government, as well as the deportation or forcible transfer of citizens during the civil war in the country.

"It is indeed a characteristic of the situation in Libya that massive crimes are reportedly committed upon instruction of a few persons who control the organizations that execute the orders," the report said. "Arresting those who ordered the commission of crimes, should the judges decide to issue warrants, will contribute to the protection of citizens in Libya."

Why women ask for more .
Touch Of Thoughts
Sunday, May 15, 2011
Source: VIVIAN OKPARA .
Men talk and think a lot about sex while
women desire it more often. Gone are the
days when 'demanding sex' was considered
exclusively a man's forte. Today women
demand sex more than men. And they have
no qualms about getting vocal about it. Its
really funny that back in the days men are
the ones who beg for sex and women
denying them of it. Now the case is totally
the opposite.
Most women nowadays literally have to
seduce their men to get them hooked on to
the act. Women had more orgasms in their
early twenties and forties than at any other
time in their lifespan when it comes to
sexual drive and satisfaction. This may vary
because all women are not created equal
and there are various levels of intensity in
terms of female orgasm and only a few
experience real orgasms through sexual
intercourse.
women in your age group are becoming
more comfortable with their bodies and
have a more intimate knowledge of their
bodily responses. This intimate knowledge
facilitates pleasure and orgasm, either
through intercourse or penetration with a
partner, clitoral stimulation, foreplay, oral
sex, or a whole host of other sexy moves.
Women want men who are powerful,
dominant and can take control. A lot of
women have show this in their behavour in
bed, some men have realized it and have
become assertive and more adventurous in
bed, while some a too impatient to notice
and adjust.
Let's face it, it hurts bad not being able to
make a woman reach orgasm and
screaming your name in ecstasy. Anytime
you can't satisfy her, becomes a personal
issue. You feel less of a man, lose sleep over
your non performance. It doesn ’t have to be
that way. You can dedicate hundreds of
hours to find out exactly what it takes to
become a masters in the bedroom and
break through her self-conscious barrier to
the point she gets excited and looking
forward to more rounds.
Women can actually experience several and
different types of orgasms. In fact you can
achieve two at once. orgasm rarely happens
during sex alone. It takes more than just
being a master to achieve this and it has
nothing to do with the size of the rod. For
the later, stimulating her organ well before
the real thing is just okay if you can get it
right.
The actual problem is that, women don’t get
to be pleased early enough even if their men
can sustain an erection for long in the first
round. Some men do pick up again, sadly
most men rarely make it beyond the first
ro§und.
Women generally reach the climax much
later than men and slugging it out with
women who experience delayed orgasm
during sex can most exhaustive. The truth
however remains that, Some men are not
open to ideas for dealing with today ’s
woman because of their ego, forgetting that
little assistance can bring new heights into
their sexual relationship

U.S. imams arrested for Helping the Taliban

May 14, 2011 11:33 a.m. EDT

The Pakistani Taliban claimed responsibility for suicide attacks Friday that killed at least 80 people.

STORY HIGHLIGHTS

• Hafiz Khan and two sons arrested
• His daughter, grandson and one other person is wanted
• They are charged with providing support to a terrorist organization

Miami (CNN) -- Two South Florida imams and a third family member were arrested Saturday on charges of providing support to the Pakistani Taliban, the Justice Department said.
In addition, three others in Pakistan were also indicted on the same charges.
FBI agents arrested Hafiz Khan and his son Izhar Khan in South Florida, the department said. They are expected to make their initial court appearance in federal court on Monday.
Another of Hafiz Khan's sons, Irfan Khan, was arrested in Los Angeles and will appear in court there.
Also charged are three Pakistani residents: Ali Rehman, Alam Zeb, and Amina Khan. Amina Khan is Hafiz Khan's daughter, and Zeb is his grandson.
The four-count indictment alleges that all six defendants conspired to provide material support to a conspiracy to kill, injure and kidnap people abroad, and that they provided support to the Pakistani Taliban.
Hafiz Khan is the imam at Flagler Mosque in Miami. Izhar Khan, is an imam at the Jamaat Al-Mu'mineen Mosque in Margate, Florida.
"Despite being an imam, or spiritual leader, Hafiz Khan was by no means a man of peace. Instead, as today's charges show, he acted with others to support terrorists to further acts of murder, kidnapping and maiming," U.S. Attorney Wilfredo A. Ferrer said. "But for law enforcement intervention, these defendants would have continued to transfer funds to Pakistan to finance the Pakistani Taliban, including its purchase of guns."
The indictment describes a number of occasions where Hafiz Khan transferred money to Pakistan, and where money was withdrawn once there.
"Khan solicited and distributed funds for the Pakistani Taliban, both personally and on behalf of others, and worked with the co-defendants and others to support the Pakistani Taliban's jihad," the indictment states.
The court documents also list several conversations between Hafiz Khan and the other defendants where he calls for attacks against the Pakistani government and inquires whether money had been delivered to the Pakistani Taliban.
The elder Khan also built a madrassa in Pakistan's Swat Valley that provided shelter for the terrorist group, the indictment states.
The Pakistani Taliban represent a confederation of Taliban groups in northwestern Pakistan, where they are based, said Bill Roggio, military-affairs analyst who is managing editor of The Long War Journal.
Those fighters attack targets in Pakistan and across the border in Afghanistan.
The group, which is headquartered in Quetta, is different from the Afghan Taliban, which has been focused on re-establishing the Islamic Emirate in Afghanistan.

Both groups swear allegiance to Taliban leader Mullah Omar and have close ties to al Qaeda, he said.

Mo’hits Headache: D’banj’s and Wande Coal’s War Continues

Mo-Hits-Records

Discerning observers are claiming that the united setting projected by Nigeria’s most successful record label arguably, Mo’Hits, might be a façade after all, NOLLYWOODGOSSIP has learned from E-Punch.
Sources close to the label led by Don Jazzy and D’banj insist that the thin line that binds the artistes is threatening to snap irrevocably, no thanks to ego clashes and expediency to put certain errant members in their rightful places. Dr. Sid, Wande Coal, D’Prince and Kayswitch are the other Mo’Hits artistes.
Trouble started with the groundbreaking, commercial success that trailed Wande’s debut album, Mushin to Mo’Hits, released in 2009. The album propelled the Mushin, Lagos-bred young man from just another backup singer for the crew to a substantive music star but with scant opportunities. Initially, as the story goes, he did not mind, revelling instead in his newfound fame. Or so they thought. Even before the release of the album, he already had a brand new Hyundai Sonata car courtesy his emergence as winner of the Next Rated Act at the Hip Hop World Awards 2008. Luckily for the crooner, his album became a chart force and he, inadvertently, became the cash cow of the label. D’banj’s album, The Entertainer, which was released months before Wande’s, reportedly suffered a slump in sales – and it did not recover from it. The mantle of stardom fell on Wande.
Soon after, the boy of yesterday matured into a man with full knowledge and awareness of his star power. Despite being a Yoruba boy, he forgot the adage that the mounds on a lass’ chest are the symptoms that she would soon be out of her father’s house. Perhaps also because he did not stay long enough to finish his degree at the University of Lagos, he did not read Robert Greene and Joost Elffers’ The 48 Laws of Power. Otherwise, he would have learnt that you should ‘never outshine the master’. Sources hint that Wande, hitherto diffident and respectful, not only outshone his masters at some point, he even spoke rudely to D’banj at a meeting of the label.
“They were having a meeting one day, and Wande who hardly talks actually spoke rudely, even raising his voice at D’banj and you know he is the one that runs Mo’Hits more or less,”
says a source. There were several other instances of impudence and gross insubordination but the label bosses turned a blind eye. Wande’s fate, one of the sources maintain, was sealed from there.
Then, D’banj and Don Jazzy moved from their Maryland, Lagos duplex to a palatial home in Lekki while Dr. Sid took up residence in 1004 Flats, leaving Wande and D’Prince. Kayswitch moved in with D’banj. At this time, the demand for Wande at shows and concerts had dropped considerably while his statutory proceeds from the little that came were either withheld or handed out to him piecemeal. To underscore that he was no longer the beautiful bride, a source alleges, the standby generator in the Maryland house was moved to Lekki. “In fact, he did not benefit in any way from the presidential windfall that came the way of D’banj and Don Jazzy unlike what would have been the case if things were right,” the source adds.
Wande’s friends said, though he knows he is being stifled and deliberately denied of cash, he is not particularly bothered because he still gets enough to keep body and soul together. What they say is his major grouse now is the seeming refusal of his label bosses to push any of his singles out or help him work towards the release of another album.
“Wande has been complaining to top celebrities, especially those who have D’banj’s ears, that he is not being fairly treated and that he wants to release another album before he is relegated in the industry. One of those he complained to is a leading Yoruba actress who enjoyed a brief romance with D’banj and who Wande sees as a big sister. His complaint is that he has been neglected for the past one year or thereabout and that there is no effort whatsoever to help him release another album much less a single.”
Although his concerned friends say he has songs, there is no direction for them as Don Jazzy would have provided. More so, he can’t bail out now as he still has some years left of his contract.
Even more worrisome for Wande is that competition in the industry is getting stiffer; with a lot of younger talents coming in and winning the hearts of music fans from the south to the west and everywhere in between. Nobody is currently dancing to bumper-to-bumper. Some have even forgotten ‘Ololufe’, the soulful ballad that endeared him to Nigerians. Those songs are now ‘old-school’, it seems. His fan base has shrunk. Seeing the handwriting on the wall, the ebony-hued singer is already planning for life after Mo’Hits as he has reportedly incorporated his own record label, Black Diamond.
