Crazy stories everywhere. This 80-year-old Iranian man, Amoo Hadji, Living in the village of Dezhgah (city of Farashband in Fars province of Iran) has not taken bath for 60 years.
His skin is scaly, you can barely see his eyes and he smells terriblybecause he has refused to take a bath for sixty years. 
The (allegedly) 80 year-old man leads a fairly primitive life, with his most prized possession being a steel pipe... that he smokes animal dung with.

2013 Glo CAF Award: Analysts favour Mikel

With 24 hours to the next Glo CAf Awards, football analysts have been making different permutations with clear-cut justifications on who deserves to wear the crown of African Player of the Year for 2013.
Majority of the opinions however favour Nigerian International and Chelsea Midfielder, John Mikel Obi to win the Award.
The top three nominees for the 2013 Glo CAF Footballer of the year Award was announced last week by Africa’s highest football authority, the Confederation of African Football (CAF).
The top three lists released includes Nigeria’s Mikel Obi, Cote D’Ivoire’s Yaya Toure and his country mate, Didier Drogba of Galasaray.
Drogba plies his trade with Turkish Club, Galatasaray while, Toure, the defending champion plays for Manchester City. Mikel Obi is a regular feature for Chelsea FC of London.
According to Mohammed Aderibigbe of Precise Sports, Mikel Obi holds the ace having won the African Cup of Nations with the Super Eagles and Europa Cup with Chlesea FC of London.
The same view was corroborated by Sam Smith of Sports Degrees who opined that Mikel deserves the Award due to his exploits with Chelsea FC and the Super Eagles, adding that if Mikel succeeds, Nigeria will be returning to the list of countries producing Glo Caf Award winners since 1999 when Kanu Nwankwo won the Award.
Chris Abraham, a sports pundit however differs in opinion. He is tipping Yahaya Toure for the Award. According to him “Yaya will nick it again, he is the leading contender and the fact that he recently won the BBC African Player of the Year makes him a clear favourite”.
However  Sports 24, an on-line Sports Outfit also tipped Mikel Obi outrightly. “ The award goes to Mikel, a regular in Chelsea line up, European?  Champions League winner, Europa Cup winner and African Cup of Nations Champion, what else? ”
Who wears the crown? All roads lead to the Convention Centre, Eko Hotel and Suites, Lagos on 9th January, 2014 where the king will be crowned.

Wizkid finally reacts to not being nominated for the Headies






wizkidaa

Many were stunned to see Wizkid’s name absent from the 2013 Headies nomination list.But - See more at: http://www.nigeriaonpoint.com/2014/01/wizkid-finally-reacts-to-not-being.html#sthash.OUU00xvD.dpuf

Many were stunned to see Wizkid’s name absent from the 2013 Headies nomination list. But the superstar doesn’t care about that. NotjustOk published a story on it and Wizkid retweeted the post and said “My fans see and appreciate all the work, that’s enough awards to last me a life time!”

Talk about maturity .I feel he should have been in the Artiste of the Year category though because he made one of the latest hits in the year 2013…

EXPOSED: So Stella Oduah Is Working With A Fake Certificate





Every day, it is becoming clear that thieves and criminals are holding top positions in Nigeria...

US College Says It Did Not Award MBA To Stella Oduah As It Has No Masters Programme
Stella Oduah, Nigeria’s Aviation Minister who is embroiled in a scandal of towering proportions in the ministry, faces new integrity questions as her Masters’ degree has been challenged by the United States school which she claimed awarded the degree to her.

Her resume, presented to Senate as a ministerial nominee in 2011, indicated she obtained a Master's degree in Business Administration (MBA) from St. Paul’s College Lawrenceville, Virginia, United States.


But the School's Provost Vice President of Academic Affairs and Vice President of Institutional Development said in response to inquiries: “We don’t offer any graduate programs here.”


Sahara Reporters has learned from the President of the college that it has never in its 125-year history had a graduate school or graduate program.

Similarly, the school’s website states: “Saint Paul's College is accredited by the Commission of Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools to award baccalaureate [bachelor’s] degrees.” There is no mention of graduate degrees.

“[Oduah] realized very early in life the indispensability of a sound education in her growth plans in life and therefore pursued her education with all diligence and sense of purpose,” her documents claimed, adding that a determination “to have the best education at the highest level” prompted her stay at the Virginia college in 1983 for the MBA programme.

As her public relations machinery marched on, in December 2012 The Sun newspaper published an article headlined “Stella Oduah: An Amazon of transformation,” which lauded her “MBA from St Paul’s College, Lawrenceville Virginia USA.” The story also praised her for being an official who brought her “rich educational background to bear on the aviation sector by automating revenue centers in all the agencies and parastatals to boost their revenue profile and enhance transparency and accountability in the system.”

Oduah’s new certificate questions are certain to feed into national concern about her credibility as an elected official, but also about Jonathan’s credibility, and about the nation’s security apparatus which verifies official documents offered to the Senate for official nominations.

If Mrs. Oduah deliberately deceived the Senate, it remains to be seen if the Upper Legislative House will be sufficiently motivated to take up the matter appropriately.
Afterall, Jonathan is yet to reveal the findings of the panel he set up to investigate Stella Oduah's cars scandal.

THIS IS SO TOUCHING: She Cried Out: He Infected Me With HIV




Initially, Mercy did not think Desmond would take any notice of her. At 17, she had acne all over her face and she was a plain Jane. Desmond was every girl’s dream. He was handsome and stood at 5 ft9. He was the captain of the school’s basketball team and his parents were said to be the wealthiest in the neighborhood.

But he had a weakness – he was a womanizer. Although his mother would usually caution him about keeping so many girlfriends, she also saw it as a sign of harmless youthful exuberance.

She did not think there was any harm done by her flirting son...

Mercy was the exact opposite. Her parents were civil servants, who were recently transferred from another state to their current location. Their salary, though was enough to feed and take care of the basic necessities in the house, they could not afford some luxuries. She had been taught to be content with what her parents could afford and not envy the rich. She would not spend money unless the item was necessary and deserving of such expense.

So when she became fond of Desmond, she did not know whether the feeling came out of vice or virtue. She just found herself drawn to him every day and could not explain why she was simply smitten with Desmond. She thought he would never see her or be attracted to her.

But she was wrong. He did notice her. One day, he came to the class where she was reading, pulled up a chair sat next to her and said, "Hello." When she turned to look, it was Desmond. Shocked, she replied, “Oh! Hello!”

“I see you are pursuing to be the most dedicated student of the year,” he commented with a mischievous smile playing around his well-formed lips. She shifted her gaze from him, her cheeks burning from the effect of deep blushing. She did a mental assessment of her looks for the day and concluded that she did not pass. She looked dowdy and plain! ‘If I knew, I would have dabbed on powder at least,’ she thought to herself.

“What are you reading so seriously?” he asked. She showed him the book.

"Oh Chaucer’s Canterbury tales," he observed. That’s a nice one. So, do you think Chaucer might permit you to hang out with me tonight?” he asked her.

He continued: “A friend is marking his birthday and I need female company. No. Forgive me for the error. I need your company.”

She felt flattered at this invitation but she attempted a weak objection. “But you have a lot of female friends…” her voice trailed off as he gazed into her eyes. There was a tense moment of silence, which could be sliced with a knife.

He bent towards her and whispered “Yes. I know. But you are the one I need this time,” she closed her eyes, expecting a kiss. He did not kiss her.

When he raised his face up, Mercy kept her eyes shut. “So, are you accompanying me tonight?” his voice brought her back to the present and she opened her eyes and answered, “Yes. I will.”

“Thanks,” he said.

She did not know how the relationship progressed from that day but she knew she started an intimate and sizzling affair with Desmond and they were inseparable. He was so committed to her that he stopped seeing all the girls that used to hang around him. She started dreaming of going down the aisle with him. She thought he would propose and looked forward to that day.

But there was a break in contact when he had to embark on an emergency trip abroad. She had no idea he was travelling and felt the initial pangs of hurt when she called his cell phone one morning and had to leave a message on his voice mail. She called his brother who informed her that he was abroad for a routine medical checkup.

Routine medical checkup? She did not understand. Desmond was healthy and did not look like someone who needed medical attention.

She did not see him again until two months and then, he seemed a bit distant. All the previous heat of passion had burned out of his eyes and she could see they appeared hollow and dispassionate. She dismissed any contrary thought, putting it down to his illness and trip.

He gave sketchy information about the medical emergency that took him abroad. But then, Mercy suddenly came down with high fever followed by a bad cough. As soon as she got to the teaching hospital, she was requested to run a blood sample test.

The test results came out three days later and she tested positive to HIV. It was the last result she expected to receive. HIV? Where did she contract it from knowing Desmond was the first and only lover she had? Immediately, she put a call through to him and informed him. She suggested he should run a test too. He did and tested positive! Then, he confessed to her that he knew his HIV status before travelling abroad.

However, the doctor explained that the virus had receded in Desmond’s system.

Mercy felt a flood of several emotions rushing at her. She felt betrayed, lost and most of all, insignificant. “Why didn’t you did tell me you were HIV positive Desmond?” she asked.

“I am sorry but I did not know how to tell you. My parents insisted that I went for more tests abroad. My dad’s doctor administered series of injections and treatments on me,” he replied.

“So, what is going to happen to me? My parents cannot afford an overseas treatment like yours,” she cried.

“I know. I have told my dad but he said the treatment was very expensive overseas. His doctors advised that you start taking antiretroviral drugs immediately. Here is a cheque for N300, 000. It’s for the treatment,” Desmond said.

Mercy collected the cheque. “I am sorry, Mercy,” Desmond said and walked away.

Now what will N300,000 do for Mercy after Desmond has destroyed her life?
