Eminem verbally eviscerated Donald Trump in a freestyle that issues an ultimatum to his fans to support the US President or him. In the four minute rap filmed in a Detroit carpark and broadcast at the BET Hip Hop Awards, the freestyle titled “The Storm” sees Eminem pace the concrete and call out Trump on issues including the NFL, white supremacy, and North Korea.

Eminem, who has been a vocal critic of Trump in the past, gave his support to NFL Colin Kaepernick, who quickly responded with a tweet which read: “I appreciate you @Eminem.” Here are some of the strongest lines: 1) “We better give Obama props ’cause what we got in office now is a kamikaze that will probably cause a nuclear holocause while the drama pops/...

'To God be the glory, who made this possible.  It all started 6 years ago when we met each other as a teacher and student in SS 3. Little did I know that life has a bigger plan and future for us.  After my SSCE in 2010, as I was about leaving secondary school, he got another job and moved, but he dropped his phone number on my biology note to enable me reach him anytime for academic assistance in pursuit of my university degree program.  Subsequently, he helped me in gaining admission in Uniport, starting from purchase of Jamb form to writing of post UTME. We started dating officially during my year one(2nd semester), and as God may have it, we connected to each other physically and spiritually so passionately.  He inspired me, supported me, encouraged me and gave me every reason to study hard and make good grades when I was in the University.  No time to pen down all the memories we have shared in the past 6 years. God and true love has bound...

Governor Nasir el-Rufai of Kaduna State unveiled the planned recruitment when he received a World Bank’s delegation in Kaduna on Monday. We tested our 33,000 primary school teachers, we gave them primary four examination and required they must get at least 75 per cent but I am sad to announce that 66 per cent of them failed to get the requirements. The hiring of teachers in the past was politicized and we intend to change that by bringing in young and qualified primary school teachers to restore the dignity of education in the state,” the governor said.

Archbishop Emeritus of the Catholic Archdiocese of Lagos, Cardinal Anthony Olubunmi Okogie, has made it known that absolutely nothing is Godly about churches with plans to own several branches in different parts of the country. According to the Cardinal, they will all be “mere business centres.” In a recent interview with NewTelegraph, the Cardinal  said: 'In order to bring us together and to get sanity back into this country, the fear of God must be number one. Nigerians of today don’t care a hoot about God. For example, I heard that one of my colleagues, Pastor Adeboye, said that he would love to build churches everywhere so as to make it easy for worshipers to walk to them.But for me, that is a useless statement. How can you say you will build churches everywhere? What kind of churches are you talking about? Look at traffic in Lagos for example, and those who are pastors are traders and a good number of them are business men'. 'such churches in most cases are...

I had been planning to open this place for a very long time, so I had been saving. When I wanted to get my new office building, I sold some of my property. I sold almost all my gold if not everything. During that time, I sold one batch and when I needed more money, I sold the rest.

A woman has been found guilty of murdering her pregnant friend on her wedding day and performing a crude caesarean operation to kidnap the unborn child. Just hours before Angelikque Sutton, 22, was to be married in November 2015, her childhood friend, Ashleigh Wade, 24, invited her to her house in New York, where she slashed her throat, stabbed her 20 times, and then cut her baby out of her body. A court in the Bronx heard Wade had slashed the expectant mother's voice box so she could not scream for help, and cut major blood vessels so she was unable to move. When police arrived, Wade told officers she had just given birth to the child and that it was hers. The baby ultimately survived. Wade had pretended she was pregnant for months ahead of the attack, and had stockpiled nappies and baby clothes. During the trial, the judge was forced to clear the courtroom when one of the jurors fainted after hearing graphic testimony and seeing images of the mutilated woman. Wade...
