Nigerian army presents anti-bombing devices to churches, mosques
The army explained that since most attacks of suicide bombers are being carried out with vehicles loaded with improvised explosive devices (IEDs), these vehicle stoppers disallow bombers from reaching their targets as it forcefully stops any vehicle that comes in contact with it at whatever speed.
The move was part of the army's corporate social responsibility in curtailing the spate of suicide bombing at worship centres in the north.
To me I believe prevention is better than cure and this devices are cure too late

fighting. I stabbed him on the neck with a knife. Between God and man, I
didn’t know I will kill him. After the thing happened, he just left. It
was the next morning that I heard he had died,” Iman added.

Church Pianist Threaten To Disrupt Chris Okotie’s Church Service For unpaid allowances
For allegedly threatening Pastor Cris Okotie and disrupting service at the Household of God, Lagos, an ex-pianist with the church, Okiotor Dafiagbor, was yesterday docked at an Ikeja Magistrates’ Court.
The 40-year old defendant is facing a three-count charge of breach of public peace, assault and threats.
Dafiagbor, who gave his address as 6, Rudolf Close, Maitama, Abuja, however, pleaded not guilty.
According to the prosecutor, Inspector Samson Ekikere, the defendant had on July 15 at 10 a.m. stormed the church located at Oregun and prevented the officiating ministers from holding a Sunday service.
“He threatened the ministers in front of the congregation and disrupted the church service.
“Dafiagbor claimed that the church was owing him for the service he rendered as the pianist between 1995 and 2009,” he told the court.
He said the accused also threatened and insulted the General Overseer of the church, Pastor Chris Okotie, over the alleged unpaid allowances.
Ekikere said that the pianist claimed that he was supposed to be paid N20, 000 per fellowship, but did not provide further details.
The prosecutor said the offences contravened Sections 166 (1), (d), 125 and 126 of the Criminal Code, Laws of Lagos State.
Magistrate Taiwo Akanni granted the defendant bail in the sum of N50, 000 with two sureties in like sum.
She adjourned the case to October 23 for further hearing.
Hennessy Artistry announces M.I & Naeto C as this year’s headline artistes
Hip-Hop
superstars and pop-culture icons M.I and Naeto C have been revealed as
headliners for this year’s Hennessy Artistry. The historic
collaboration between these two heavyweights that have each made an
indelible mark on the Nigerian music industry, was orchestrated earlier
this year by Hennessy Cognac, the world’s leading cognac brand.
In continuation of last year’s Hennessy Artistry formula, the two rappers have not only been engaged to tour the leading clubs
in Nigeria, but also to conceptualize, write, record and perform a
theme song that will drive this year’s project. This year’s Hennessy Artistry track will be followed by a music video that will air on TV media across Africa.
The announcement marks the start of what will be a wonderful and unforgettable experience for fans of the Hennessy Cognac brand and the very popular Hennessy Artistry initiative.
This year, Storm 360 artiste Naeto C will join the likes of Eldee, Banky W, Tiwa Savage, Ice Prince, Nneka, Kas, Sir Shina Peters, Bez and Mo’Cheddah, and other prominent acts, who have been featured in the Hennessy Artistry initiative.
“It
is going to be an experience you won’t forget in a hurry,” says Naeto
C, the hip-hop impresario behind rave hits ‘Tony Montana’, ‘10 over 10’
and ‘Kini Big Deal’. “We are working night and day to see that this
year’s Hennessy Artistry edition will be the best for Hennessy fans,
music lovers and our fans. Many of our fans have been waiting for years
for a Naeto C and M.I collaboration, and we both thought there was no
time like the present to deliver this epic combination to them.”
According to Hennessy Marketing Manager, Tokini Peterside, “Hennessy Cognac is glad to be working with these exceptionally talented musicians. The fusion of their talent
brings ‘the art of blending’ to life, which is at the heart of
Hennessy Artistry, a project that seeks to further the interplay
between our cognac, popular culture, people and good music.”

Vigil held for US cinema massacre victims
A makeshift memorial behind the movie theater where a gunmen attacked movie goers …
Bomb
squad experts will try Saturday to enter a gunman's booby-trapped
apartment, hours after a late-night vigil for the 12 killed in a US
cinema massacre that also injured 70.
Hundreds of mourners held candles, many sobbing and hugging each
other in an outpouring of grief for those who died when the gunman
opened fire in a packed cinema showing Batman movie "The Dark Knight
Rises."The shooting drew expressions of concern from political leaders led by President Barack Obama, and revived the perennial debate about gun control in the United States.
On Saturday, Obama promised justice to the residents of Aurora, Colorado, saying: "The federal government stands ready to do everything necessary to bring whoever's responsible for this heinous crime to justice."
He said the government "will take every step possible" to ensure the safety of all Americans.
Bomb squad experts had been trying for much of the day Friday to gain entrance to the apartment since shortly after the shooting in the town of Aurora just outside Denver.
But they gave up shortly before sundown, and said they would resume again Saturday, when they hope to make a breakthrough that could also reveal clues as the motives of 24-year-old gunman James Holmes.
"It is a very vexing problem how to enter that apartment safely. I personally have never seen anything like what the pictures show us is in there. I'm a layman when it comes to bomb stuff, said Aurora police chief Dan Oates.
"I see an awful lot of wires, trip wires, jars full of ammunition, jars full of liquid. Some things that look like mortar rounds. We have a lot of challenge, to get in there safely."
Late Friday the town gathered for two vigils, including a midnight one, as it emerged that Holmes bought more than 6,000 rounds of ammunition on the Internet, and four guns, in the two months before the shootings.
The masked, black-clad shooter burst into a movie theater barely 20 minutes into the midnight screening, throwing two tear-gas type devices before opening fire.
"As far as we know, it was a pretty rapid pace of fire in that theater," said Oates, his voice shaking at times with emotion, and exhaustion after a long night and day dealing with the trauma.
In an end-of-day update, he amended slightly the number of victims of the shooting at a midnight screening of the latest Batman movie from 71 to 70. Twelve of them died, including 10 in the theater.
A local children's hospital reported six young victims, the youngest of whom was aged only six. At least three of the wounded were US military members, the Pentagon said.
Shots fired in one auditorium went through the wall and hit people in the auditorium next door. The first police were on the scene within 90 seconds, while eventually some 200 officers swarmed around the building.
"In the last 60 days, he purchased four guns at local metro gun shops and through the internet he purchased over 6,000 rounds of ammunition," the police chief said.
He added: "My understanding is that all the weapons that he possessed he possessed legally, and all the clips that he possessed, he possessed legally, and all the ammunition he possessed, he possessed legally."
Police arrested Holmes -- who was wearing full body armor and a gas mask, apparently to protect him from effects of his own tear gas -- without encountering resistance by his car at the rear of the theater.
Holmes, who reportedly attended the University of Colorado medical school until last month, had no criminal record aside from a citation for speeding in October 2011, according to police.
Witnesses described chaos chillingly similar to that depicted in the Batman films, in which maniacal villains terrorize Gotham City.
"I saw some people start to get up. I poked my head up to see what was going on and when I did that I saw another flash and instantly put my head down as he started shooting again," said 17-year-old Tanner Coon.
Cinemas in New York tightened security at Batman showings, and the AMC theatre chain announced a ban on face masks and fake weapons -- several people wore costumes in Aurora, possibly helping Holmes to blend in with the melee.
The French premiere of the film in Paris was cancelled.
As with previous such shootings -- all too regular in the US -- lobby groups and some political leaders called for legislation to restrict civilians' access to firearms.
"Maybe it's time that the two people who want to be president of the United States stand up and tell us what they are going to do because this is obviously a problem across the country," New York mayor Michael Bloomberg said.
Aurora is barely 20 miles (32 kilometers) from the scene of the 1999 Columbine High School massacre, in which two students shot dead 13 people before committing suicide.
Mass shooting in Colorado movie theater leaves 12 dead
ABC News reports that people were gathered inside the Century 16 Theaters in Aurora, Colorado for a midnight showing of Dark Knight when a lone gunman entered the theater around 12:30 Friday morning and opened fire. Reports from the scene indicate that some sort of explosive device was used during the incident.
Witnesses told ABC that 15 to 20 shots were fired inside the theater and that bullets pierced the walls of an adjoining theater as well.
Officers found the gunman near a car behind the theater. The suspect was taken into custody, but no name was released. Local law enforcement said there's no evidence of any other attackers. There was also no immediate word of any motive. (Source - ABC News)
Update: The shooter has been identified as 24 year old James Holmes

My love for Prezzo was not a strategy to win' - Goldie opens up
When asked if her 'love' for Prezzo was real or a strategy to win, the singer replied:
It wasn't a strategy to win. I saw Prezzo as a calm, very intelligent and easy going person. Viewers have the option of seeing about 50 cameras at a time but I have just two eyes and two ears and only believe in what I saw. You had the opportunity of knowing him more than I did.On how she felt when she realized that Prezzo had nominated her for eviction/ played her. Her answer when you continue...
She said, "I didn't know much or watched Big Brother very much before I got there due to my busy schedule as an Artiste. So, I never suspected that Prezzo played me because he cared for me in the House and when I say you are my friend, I will trust you wholeheartedly. But when I came out of the House and realised that he had played me, I was a bit sad. Knowing that he was in the house to play a game, I became relaxed".
On why she cried during her eviction on Sunday:
"That is who I am. That was how I was brought up. I am a very emotional person. But I cried mostly because of the betrayal that I felt from Prezzo! He was the last person that I thought could betray me. He was always giving me hope. cheering me up as one of West African representative. He showed solidarity to the course of the Region. I thought he was my friend! So, I was emotional when I realized he played me"
