Iran Warns of War if Aid Ship to Yemen Attacked.
The deputy chief of staff of the Iranian armed forces warned on Tuesday that Iran would retaliate in force against any country, which attacks an Iranian ship heading to Yemen with humanitarian aid cargo on board.
“Attacking the Iranian Red Crescent aid ship will spark war in the region”, Brigadier General Massoud Jazzayeri told the Arabic-language TV Alalam.”The US and Saudi Arabia should know that Iran’s self-restraint has a limit,” he cautioned.
An Iranian ship carrying 2,500 tons of medical supplies, relief workers and peace activists from several countries left the Southern Iranian port city of Bandar Abbas for Yemen’s Red Sea port of Hudaydah, Iran’s Fars news agency reported.
The Iranian Red Crescent Society (IRCS) has been trying to dispatch humanitarian aid to Yemen by sea and air, but has failed due to Saudi Arabia’s full blockade of the war-ravaged country.
Iran had earlier sent five consignments of humanitarian aid to Yemen, including a total of 69 tons of relief, medical, treatment, and consumer items, the agency reported.
Saudi Arabia launched its bombing campaign against Yemen on March 26 in an attempt to drive out the Shiite Houthi militants who seized power in Yemen, and to reinstate the fugitive President Mansour Hadi.

Mercy Aigbe uncovers Why Her 1st Marriage Didn't Work
Celebrated Yoruba on-screen character, Mercy Aigbe-Gentry, has uncovered why her first marriage did not work in a meeting with the Sunday edition of The Punch. As per her the marriage did not work in light of the fact that she was youthful, innocent and in particular she had issues with her relative.
Leniency Aigbe said that her mother by marriage did not want her child to wed from another tribe.
“I had a bad experience the first time, so I had some reservations and I just wanted to face my career, even though I loved him. I decided to put my trust in God and just go with the flow. I was happy and scared at the same time. Then, I was young and naive. Now, I handle issues differently. Also, the major reason my first marriage failed was because my ex-husband’s mum did not want him to marry from another tribe” she said.
Mercy Aigbe went on to clear any notion that has present marriage has been controversial.
“I do not think I have had any controversies since I got married. They were just misconceptions. People thought I married a married man and I was a second wife. What they did not know or care to know was that he was already a divorcee when we met” she said.
In April 2013, there were reports that Mercy Aigbe was allegedly beaten by her husband at an event.
A few days after the couple released a YouTube video dismissing the claims.
Tanker drivers ordered to vacate Alaka and Eko bridges.
Tanker drivers in Lagos State have been requested to abandon the Alaka and Eko bridges. The legislature said their exercises were creating burdens for different drivers in the state.
The General Manager of the Lagos State Transport Management Authority, Babatunde Edu, while driving a group of government authorities around the territory on Tuesday, said the activity likewise contradicted the state movement law.
He said,
“The areas are gradually becoming an eye sore; and if not properly managed, this situation can worsen to the level of lawlessness and indiscipline being witnessed daily in the Apapa area.“This act of insensitivity has crippled the economy of the state and denied other people their right to livelihood.
“The government will ensure that every citizen has a right to the roads. These roads are not constructed only for articulated vehicles.”
Edu said the Lagos Metropolitan Area Transport Authority Law of 2007 restricted the driving of articulated vehicles, lorries, trailers and tankers on the BRT lite corridor between 11am and 4pm and between 11pm and 5pm.
He urged the National Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas Workers to educate its members on the need for total compliance with the state road traffic law.
Summit: Mama Peace denies blocking Buhari’s wife
Wife of the President, Mrs. Patience Jonathan, on Tuesday denied media reports that her plan to host the 8th summit of the African First Ladies Peace Mission on Friday is designed to deny the wife of the President-elect, Hajia Aisha Buhari, the opportunity of becoming the President of the mission.
Mrs. Jonathan, who is the current President, had summoned a meeting of the mission during which new executive members are expected to emerge.
Media reports had it that the election would have been held in July but the President’s wife brought it back to May to allow her successor to emerge before her husband will cease to be President from May 29.
But a statement by Mr. Ayo Adewuyi, on Tuesday said there was no truth in the reports.
Adewuyi explained that Mrs. Jonathan was elected President in July 2012 and was meant to serve for two years, according to the group’s internal regulation.
He further said that while her tenure ought to have ended in 2014, when a fresh election should have held, the President’s wife drew the attention of her colleagues to the then forthcoming election in Nigeria, which preparation would not enable her host the summit.
According to him, Mrs. Jonathan therefore proposed that the summit should hold after the general elections, and it was accordingly agreed that it should be held in July 2015.
Adewuyi however added that there was an understanding among members that if President Goodluck Jonathan did not succeed in his re-election bid, the President’s wife would convene the summit in May to enable the election of a new President and ensure a smooth handover since her tenure has ended.
The statement read in part, “Arising from the above, it is therefore clear that this is not a personal matter nor specifically a Nigeria sole affair but a continental platform governed by its own rules and protocols just as similar international organisations.
“It would therefore be out of place for anyone to insinuate that it is intended to shut out the incoming First Lady. This cannot be farther from the truth.
“We state therefore without any iota of equivocation that it is mischievous for anyone to scheme to cause disaffection between the outgoing and incoming First Ladies, Dame Patience Jonathan, and Hajia Aisha Buhari.
“Let us therefore come together in our tradition of hospitality to heartily welcome our guests, the African First Ladies, as they arrive Abuja for the 8th Summit of the Mission.
“Let us always remember that the personal ambition of anybody is not worth destroying the image of the nation.”
APC govt will ask looters to return money – El-Rufai
Kaduna State Governor-elect and former Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nasir el-Rufai, said on Tuesday that the incoming government of Muhammadu Buhari would ask corrupt politicians to return every kobo stolen by them.
He also said that the Buhari administration would inherit a huge debt from the Goodluck Jonathan government.
The governor-elect told executive members of the National Union of Textile Garments and Tailoring Workers of Nigeria, who visited him in Kaduna, that such politicians must be ready to return all ill-gotten funds after May 29.
He however said those (politicians) who were not corrupt had no cause to fear.
According to him, the measure was imperative because the All Progressives Congress-led government would be in a dire financial strait on assumption of office.
El-Rufai said, “We will politely ask those who stole government money to return the funds. This is because the people, who are in government now, are there to work for themselves. But the APC government is made up of people who are ready to work for the masses and the betterment of the country.
“We will work with the textile unions to ensure that the lives of the average Nigerians get better.”
The ex-minister also decried the poor state of the textile industry in Kaduna State and gave assurance that his administration would revamp it.
He lamented the current employment figure of 1,600 people in the textile sector, describing it as unacceptable.
El-Rufai added that the textile industry in Kaduna alone used to employ about 33,000 workers.
According to him , the APC government will revive the industry so that it can generate employment and impact on the lives of the people.
He said, “We have met at a forum of northern governors-elect and we decided to ensure the revival of the textile industry. It is a shame that the largest economy in Africa imports textile materials from Senegal and other countries.”
The President of the union, Oladele Hunsu, recalled el-Rufai’s feat as minister of the FCT and urged him (el-Rufai) to take steps towards reviving the textile industry.

NDIC moves to recover 34million Naira debt from Okupe
The Nigerian Deposit Insurance Corporation has asked a Federal High Court in Lagos to place on the “undefended list” a suit it filed to recover an alleged debt of N34m from the Senior Special Adviser to President Goodluck Jonathan, Dr. Doyin Okupe, and two others.
A plaintiff usually applies to put a matter on undefended list when he believes the respondents have no valid defence.
Okupe’s co-respondents in the suit filed by the NDIC before Justice Saliu Saidu are Value Trust Investment Limited and its Director, Mr. Ray Ahazie.
The corporation had instituted the action in 2007 to recover the alleged debt being the outstanding of a loan facility obtained by the respondents from Gulf Bank Plc in October 2000.
The corporation, in a statement of claims by its lawyer, Dr. Abiodun Layonu (SAN), said the respondents obtained the loan from the bank to facilitate a contract to supply the Bayelsa State Government with 10,000 metric tons of imported rice.
It, however, stated that though the said rice was successfully imported on December 28, 2000, the ship was unable to berth at the Apapa Port in Lagos until January 3, 2001 because the port was then congested.
The corporation stated further that when the ship arrived at Port Harcourt on July 26, 2001, an unpaid agency fee in the sum of $155,000 prevented it from berthing.
According to the NDIC, the said delay in the delivery of the bags of rice led to some becoming caked and some becoming stained.
Bayelsa State Government was said to have refused to take delivery of the rice, following which Gulf Bank was forced to commence an open market sale of the goods and in the process discovering that a good number of the bags of rice were spoilt.
The bank said that at the end of the sale it was able to recoup only N454, 574,150 of the loan advanced to the defendants leaving an outstanding sum of N70,425,850.
The outstanding sum was said to have been attracting interest since 2001.
The matter was said to have been referred to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission in September 2005 where the sum of N196,642, 996 of the debt with interest was waived, leaving only an outstanding of N44m.
The NDIC however claimed that following the waiver, the defendants were able to pay only N10m out of the N44m bringing the debt down to N34m.
But since then the defendants were said to have allegedly abandoned the debt or refused to liquidate it.
NDIC in its suit before the Federal High Court is seeking to reclaim the indebted sum with 21 per cent interest per annum till it would be finally liquidated.
The corporation also wants the court to put the cost of instituting the legal action on the defendants.
At the resumed hearing of the case before Justice Saidu, counsel for the NDIC, Mr. Oburume Ayeteno, informed the court that the corporation had filed an application to place the suit on the undefended list, adding that he was ready to argue same.
In response, however, Okupe’s lawyer, Mr. Yemi Gbonegun, said he had already filed a statement of defence to the claims.
The document was however not found in the court’s records following which Gbonegun sought for an adjournment to be able to re-file it.
The court adjourned further proceedings till July 8.

B'Haram Survivor, Zahra Makes Shocking Revelations On Boko Haram's Movement
One of the survivors of Boko Haram insurgency, Zahra Umoru says the terrorists were receiving the information of the movements of the military.
The girl was abducted in November and rescued recently with other women and children from Sambisa forest.
The teenager was speaking with the journalists of TheCable at Malkohi, one of the camps for Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) in Yola, Adamawa state.
She said Boko Haram terrorists kept moving hostages from one place to the other.
Umoru narrates: “When they captured us, we were taken to a house in Gwoza.
“When they heard soldiers were in Madagali, they took us to Peta where we lived under trees.
“We don’t know how Boko Haram gets its information, but they always know when the soldiers are coming. If there’s something like that, they just tell us to pack our things and run.
“The night we left Gwoza, we just finished cooking, but we were not allowed to eat the food; we were just packed and left.”
Several other Boko Haram victims also corroborated this information. They said they were relocated from one village to another, one bush to the other, town to town, based on the itinerary of the Nigerian army.
Meanwhile, it is uncertain if the insurgents received its information from news reports and comments released by the Defence Headquarters or they have some insiders in the army.
Earlier in April, when the military was commencing the operation in Sambisa forest, Mike Omeri, coordinator of the national information centre, informed the journalists.
He said that the government was dedicated to liberating the girls.
About two weeks later, the army said in another comment that its soldiers were still present in Sambisa to rescue the girls.
Borno senator Ali Ndume has said that Nigerian army rescued about 1000 women and children in the North East.
After the postponement of the general elections for six weeks troops achieved success in the war against insurgency and most of the captured areas were liberated.
The mass kidnapping of more than 200 schoolgirls who were writing science exams at a boarding school in the town of Chibok, over a year ago, brought Boko Haram to the attention of the world and caused international outrage.
The terrorists kidnapped hundreds more in their campaign across northeastern Nigeria.

‘British Obama’ Nigerian Chuka Umunna Confirms He Will Contest For UK’s Labour Party's Leader Seat
He may only be 36 years old, born October 17, 1978, Labour Streatham MP, Chuka Umunna has confirmed he is ready to be the next Labour leader after the resignation of Ed Miliband . Referred to as ‘Mr Smooth’, the rising Labour star nicknamed the ‘British Obama’ has officially declared his party leadership bid according to reports in Manchester Evening News..
Manchester university alumnus Chuka Umunna will go head-to-head with a string of other hopefuls – expected to include Leigh MP Andy Burnham.
The shadow business secretary, a south London MP only elected for the first time five years ago, will be helped in his campaign by Stalybridge and Hyde MP Jonathan Reynolds.
Long tipped for the top, he is seen by many as the fresh-faced moderniser needed to rebuild the party – and in his announcement insisted Labour must draw now together the ‘north, south, east and west’ to take back power.That would not take a decade to do, he insisted.
In a Facebook video made in the marginal seat of Swindon, which Labour failed to take last week, he said: “I’m pleased today to be announcing that I will be standing for the leadership of the party. I think we can and we should be winning in seats like Swindon.
“North, south, east, west, we can absolutely do it as a party. Some have actually suggested in the last few days that somehow this is now a 10-year project to get the Labour part back into office. I don’t hink we can have any truck with that at all.
“I think the Labour party can do that in five years. I want to lead that effort.”Chuka Umunna-jide-salu.com
Following Labour’s crushing defeat last Thursday a debate immediately erupted within the party over future direction – as well as who should lead it.
Mr Umunna – who studied law at Manchester and was tipped for high office even before being elected as MP for Streatham in 2010 – said he had been and spoken to dozens of losing Labour candidates over the last few days before announcing his bid.
His choice of Swindon is significant, with many within the party having insisted both before and after the election that Labour had done too little to appeal to centre-ground, aspiration voters in the south.
But he will face strong competition in his bid for office and is not without his detractors. Some within the party are suspicious of his slick style, more Blairite leanings and smart suits – and may well prefer a more familiar face or a female candidate.
Currently Mr Umunna is bookies’ favourite, however, followed by Andy Burnham and Leicester West MP Liz Kendall. Mr Burnham has not responded to the M.E.N’s request for an interview.

Mrs Stella however quickly contacted the Idimu division of Police when she got back and saw her car had disappeared. The police traced David to Iyana Iba-LASU road and arrested him. During interrogation, the culprit made it known that he actually came from Benin, the Edo State capital in southern Nigeria, with a mission to Lagos to steal vehicles. He said he had no permanent address and all he does is to preach in disguise of the evil work.
He was however charged to court for stealing. At the court, he told the presiding Magistrate, Mr Peter Nwaka, that he actually does not know the owner of the car personally before he stole the car. Although granted bail, the case is still pending in court as it was adjourned to 27th May.
Why I Sacked IGP, Suleiman Abba - Pres. GEJ
Gross indiscipline amongst the personnel of the Nigeria Police Force amid the tenure of Suleiman Abba, was the motivation behind why President Goodluck Jonathan dumped him as Inspector General.
This was unveiled to columnists via director of the Police Service Commission, Mike Okiro, taking after a Police Council meeting, led by Jonathan.
“The President, in a very brief way said, during the period of the former IGP, a lot of indiscipline was noticed among the rank and file of the police and as such he felt that a new IG should come and try his luck,” Mr. Okiro said. “That is what (Mr. Jonathan) said, though I cannot give details of that.”
Also at the council, Mr. Jonathan confirmed the appointment of the new Inspector General of Police, Solomon Arase.
Arase was appointed by the president as the Acting IGP following the sack of Abba late last month. He has been in an acting capacity for three weeks.
Nebraska Woman Files Lawsuit Against all the Gay Men in the World
A Nebraska woman identifying herself as the “ambassador” for plaintiffs “God and His Son, Jesus Christ,” is suing all homosexuals on Earth for breaking “religious and moral laws,” according to court records filed Tuesday.
In the suit, entered into the docket as Driskell v. Homosexuals, Sylvia Ann Driskell, 66, of Auburn, Nebraska, asks in a seven-page, neatly handwritten petition that U.S. District Judge John M. Gerrard decide once and for all whether homosexuality is or isn’t a sin.
The suit doesn’t cite any case law under which a judge could make such a determination. In fact, it cites no court cases at all, quoting Webster’s Dictionary and numerous Bible verses, instead, to bolster Driskell’s central contention, which is:
“That homosexuality is a sin and that they the homosexuals know it is a sin to live a life of homosexuality. Why else would they have been hiding in the closet.”
Driskell writes, “I’m sixty six years old, and I never thought that I would see the day in which our Great Nation or Our Great State of Nebraska would become so compliant to the complicity of some peoples lewd behavior.”
The suit was noticed by several gay activists and writers, including Dan Savage, the advice columnist, who said, “Man, I hope I get deposed!” and Steven Payne, a self-described “gay feller,” who wrote in The Daily Kos:
“Brian (his husband) and I will be liquidating our assets in preparation for a certain loss. We anticipate the restitution ordered to this woman will take us down to our very last penny. In the meantime, our fear is so great we have ceased and desisted being homosexual.”
Driskell, who’s representing herself, didn’t answer a call for comment. The court noted dryly that, regarding to the defendants, “No summons [was] issued.”

Anambra State Spends ₦374M To Send 805 Christians To Pilgrimage In Jerusalem and Israel
Anambra State Government spent N374million in sponsoring 805 pilgrims for the 2014 and 2015 pilgrimage to the Holy land, just as 14 pilgrims went on personal sponsorship.
Dr. Levi Monanu, Chairman of Christian Pilgrims Welfare Board (CPWB), made the disclosure shortly after a thanksgiving service held by the board in Awka.
He said the service was aimed at thanking God for his mercy, love and grace in leading the contingents on a safe pilgrimage, as there were no telltales throughout the trip. “We recorded no flight mishap, no pilgrim got injured or missing in the Holy land; all participated actively in the activities and fulfilled the purpose for which we went to Israel and returned safely,” he said.
Dr. Monanu said Anambra had the highest pilgrims in the South East, that participated in the exercise, adding that the pilgrims conducted themselves in line with the Motto of the Holy visit, which is “pilgrimage, a Tool for Moral and Spiritual Transformation.’’
He commended the state government for supporting the board, noting that the state was first to embark on agricultural and leadership training in Israel. Governor Chief Willie Obiano, in his remarks commended the contingents for representing the state well and assured that government would continue to support in building spiritually filled citizens.
The governor, who was represented by the Deputy Governor, Dr. Nkem Okeke, described pilgrimage as a tool for human and social development because the trip had assisted in reforming and building responsible citizens for development of the state. Also speaking, the Director-General, Institute for National Transformation, Abuja, Prof Vincent Anigbogu, said pilgrimage has helped to infuse character formation among the people.
He said the two day intensive training offered Anambra pilgrims under the reference time was very necessary and called for more of such training in the state to be instituted in schools in order to achieve greater results. Mrs Ifeadi Pat, a pilgrim said that pilgrimage was a worthy trip as it really helps in transforming lives of those who are likely to visit Holy Land. She said that the government should give more room to people who could not afford the trip as it would certainly make more meaning to their Christian lives in having the chance to see in reality the holy sites.
Dr Uche Okafor said that the trip to holy land should be sustained as there is much to gain in the program and condemned the call to suspend the program from some quarters of the country. The event was graced by wife of the deputy governor, Mrs Oby Okeke, traditional rulers while the Salvation Army Band entertained the pilgrims. The board later presented plaques to the governor, his wife, the deputy and his wife as a mark of appreciation for their support towards the board.
