Stomach Infrastructure Is A Welfare Programme, Ayo Fayose Enlightens Nigerians

Newly sworn-in Governor of Ekiti State who has been criticised for making provision for stomach infrastructure immediately he got into office has explained why he actually created an office for it.

Fayose while speaking at the PDP national secretariat yesterday, when he accompanied President Goodluck Jonathan to pick his presidential forms said, even Britain does it. His words;

If you look at Britain, as rich and as comfortable as they are, in the entire time, they find their way to address the issue of the poor and less privileged masses in their country by what they call social security. Food is a social security, you can’t be talking to a hungry man, he would be distracted by any means. Secondly, when we say stomach infrastructure, it is a welfare programme, a programme that would keep the heart of a man stable.”

Photo: Chelsea Handler Posts Topless Photo To Show She Has A Better Body Than Putin!

Chelsea Handler shocked everyone when she posted a topless picture of herself on her instagram official page to show she has a better body than Vladimir Putin. I think it is more than that though, because shortly after that knowing fully well that instagram will take it down, she started campaigning to keep the photo on instagram and her followers joined her in campaigning to retain the photo. Instragram took it down few hours later, which sparked a row online saying the act was nothing but discrimination against her and whatsoever a man can do, a woman can do better.

The suspected rapist

The girl, who was on her menstrual period, went out to buy sanitary pads before the man accosted her, pretended he had a weapon and threatened to kill her if she does not obey what he tells her. So sacred she was that she listened to him, and he ordered her to take him to her home. On getting there, he asked her to remove her clothes and as he was about removing his she begged that she had something on fire. The man allowed her go into the kitchen and she came back with a rod she hid under her cloth. As he was about wearing a condom, she hit the rod on his head and he died instantly.

The love birds the day Senzo was killed
A lot of South Africans have rained curses on Khumalo, a South African singer and girlfriend of football star, Senzo Meyiwa, for letting the footballer into her home where he was killed on Sunday knowing he was fully married.
